Therefore, Tang Wan'er had no choice but to help Princess Xuan Gong catch butterflies first. However, it was still difficult to catch the butterflies with bare hands. Tang Wan'er thought of using bait to lure the butterflies to the bait. At this time, she could catch the butterflies while they were relaxed.
.
Tang Wan'er asked if there were any bananas. The fourth prince shook his head that there weren't any at this time of year, and he also emphasized that fruits are very valuable.
So, Tang Wan'er finally used sugar to stick to the leaves and petals. Sure enough, those butterflies flew over obediently. Then, Tang Wan'er used the net made to net the butterflies.
Princess Xuan Gong was very happy to get the butterfly, so the fourth prince asked his nanny to take the princess away, and then they arrived at Jiao Shu Palace.
"Chong'er pays his respects to the good concubine."
"Good concubine, good luck."
"The fourth prince is exempt from gifts, and Miss Tang is exempt from gifts."
Then, the fourth prince and Tang Wan'er stood up. After exchanging a few words, they asked Concubine Liang to take care of herself, and the best Biluochun was brewed.
Liang Fei thought about it and knew that the fourth prince must have gone to the Three Treasures Hall for no reason, so she asked them about their purpose of coming.
"Since your Majesty asked this, Chong'er said straight to the point."
"Well, you go down first."
Liang Fei waved her hand, and the maids and eunuchs wisely left.
"Okay, Fourth Prince, please tell me. If I can help, I will do my best."
"Chong'er would like to thank your Majesty in advance." The fourth prince bowed and replied, "Your Majesty may have heard that the Prime Minister's faction is becoming more and more arrogant in the court. In addition, the Prime Minister is one person below ten thousand people.
Many decisions are only reported to my father, and there is a strong suspicion that he has the final say."
After listening to the fourth prince's narration, Liang Fei did not react much, but replied coldly: "It is a rule set by our ancestors that the harem should not interfere in politics. Does the fourth prince want me to be punished for this?"
"I don't dare. Chong'er didn't mean to let the queen get involved in politics. He just wanted to say that letting the prime minister's power grow so strong would be detrimental to everyone. And the prime minister's wolfish ambitions are clear from the fact that he sent his youngest daughter to the palace to choose a concubine.
.Once his youngest daughter is successfully selected as a concubine, Liu Wuyang, who is young and beautiful, will definitely win the favor of his father soon. In this way, the prime minister's status will be more stable, and the harem will be subject to change.
Come to think of it, it’s not good news for the empress.”
Liang Fei did not answer the fourth prince immediately, but slowly picked up the teacup, looked at it quietly, and then put the teacup down again.
"What does the Fourth Prince want me to do?" Liang Fei replied, "Selecting a concubine is a major event that occurs once every three years. It is related to our ancestors and the country. We concubines need to share the emperor's worries instead of doing small things behind his back.
means."
"This... Chong'er didn't ask the empress to do something, it's just..."
"I hope to form an alliance with the empress."
Tang Wan'er suddenly said something.
"Form an alliance? I wonder what Miss Tang means?"
Liang Fei asked.
"Yu Jing heard that the empress has always been at odds with the Prime Minister. Naturally, she will not let the Prime Minister's faction grow stronger and let the Prime Minister's daughter climb on your head. Then, why don't you and I unite the front to deal with the common enemy? To be honest.
, Yu Jing has already been resented by her because of a small conflict with Liu Wuyang. I am afraid she has told the Prime Minister to deal with me. The Queen should know that because Liu Wuyang belongs to the powerful family of the Prime Minister's daughter, the concubine must be determined to win, and she
The reason for targeting me, even if Yu Jing doesn’t say it clearly, the empress must understand why, right?”
