Yin Xiaoxiao expressed her attitude decisively and clearly.
Xie Mingxi raised her eyes and looked at Yin Xiaoxiao.
Yin Xiaoxiao's eyes were clear and her expression was upright and upright. People who are familiar with Yin Xiaoxiao's temperament will know that she speaks sincerely and there is nothing false about her words.
After a moment, Xie Mingxi pursed her lips and smiled: "Thank you, Sister-in-law Five."
Brother Lin and Brother Ting quickly looked at each other and exchanged a complicated look.
Xiao Yuhan's mood was quite complicated at this time. The emperor and the empress had always been childless, and she secretly speculated on which nephew the empress would adopt as the crown prince. However, she did not expect that the emperor and the empress had no intention of adopting him, but wanted to adopt him.
Make A Luo the crown prince...
This couple is so bold and confident!
Xiao Yuhan couldn't help but asked softly: "I heard that there was a lot of commotion in the court today, and that Chen Yushi Zhao Zhongshu Ling of the Lu Zhangyuan was beaten. I wonder what the situation is now?"
Xie Mingxi had obviously already received the news, and responded calmly: "Chen Yushi was slightly seriously injured, and Lu Zhangyuan and Zhao Zhongshuling also suffered some flesh injuries. It is not appropriate to return to the palace at this time. We will stay in the palace for a few days to recover from the injuries.
It’s not too late to leave the palace now.”
The main reason is that Chen Zhan and the other three have offended the public today, and the emperor left the three of them in the palace to recuperate, which shows the divine grace and also means to protect them.
Otherwise, Chen Zhan, not to mention others, would be the first to bear the brunt and would be punished by the "family law" when he returned home.
Xiao Yuhan calmed down and reminded softly: "Sister Lin and the others must be thinking about their husbands, so why not call them into the palace together. Let them see with their own eyes, and they will feel at ease."
Xie Mingxi smiled slightly: "My third sister-in-law and I have thought of something." She turned around and told A'luo: "A'luo, go to the Lu's, Chen's and Zhao's in person and bring your Aunt Lin and the three of you into the palace.
"
A Luo agreed without hesitation.
Xiao Yuhan couldn't help but secretly praise his cleverness!
The more sensitive it is at such a sensitive time when everyone is watching, the less likely it is to give in. A Luo personally went to take Lin Weiwei and others into the palace, firstly to show God's grace, and secondly to give a clear and clear signal to the officials.
How many courtiers are there who have the courage and confidence to fight against the imperial power to the end?
Ah Luo's mood was different from usual today. She was a little excited and excited. She opened her mouth and said to Xie Mingxi: "Mother, I will leave the palace now. Within two hours, Aunt Lin and the others will be brought into the palace."
Xie Mingxi hummed.
A Luo left first, and the Jiaofang Palace fell into silence again.
Xie Mingxi broke the quiet and dull atmosphere with a smile: "I'm going to Yiqing Palace to visit Lu Zhangyuan and others. I won't leave you to have lunch in Jiaofang Palace."
At this time, no one would ask to go along without being interested.
Xiao Yuhan, Yin Xiaoxiao each stood up and said goodbye: "Let's go back to the palace first. If anything happens, the Queen will just send someone to call us over."
Xie Mingxi ordered Xianghui to send him off on his behalf.
Zhao Changqing was slow to react today, a beat slower than the two of them. He was the last one to stand up and squeezed out a stiff smile: "I will lead Sister Rong back to the palace first and come back later when I have free time."
Xie Mingxi nodded slightly.
…
Zhao Changqing was frightened when he came, and felt heavy and confused when he left.
After returning to the palace, the calmness that Zhao Changqing had maintained disappeared, and his whole body suddenly started to tremble violently.
Sister Rong was so frightened that she reflexively supported Zhao Changqing: "Mother! Mother!" She turned around and shouted: "Come here, the doctor is here!"
Zhao Changqing's heart was as heavy as a mountain, his hands and feet were cold, he kept trembling, and he spoke intermittently: "No, we can't declare the imperial doctor! Sister Rong, help me, help me go back to the dormitory and lie down for a while. I'll rest for a while and I'll be fine."
Sister Rong was so frightened that she burst into tears. While crying, she helped Zhao Changqing go back to the dormitory and lie down.
Zhao Changqing shivered for a long time and could not calm down.
Sister Rong kept crying: "Mother, don't scare me. Let the imperial doctor come and take a look!"
Zhao Changqing insisted and refused.
It wasn't until her brother arrived that a huge stone fell from Sister Rong's heart. She choked with sobs and said to Brother Ji, who looked gloomy and ugly: "Brother, after mother came back from Jiaofang Hall, her whole body has been shaking non-stop, and she won't let me declare.
Imperial Physician, I am really scared. It will be better if you come."
Brother Ji raised his heavy hand and patted Sister Rong's shoulder gently: "My mother and I will be alone for a while to talk. My sister will go back to the house to rest first."
Growing up, Sister Rong was used to listening to her brother's words. She wiped her tears with a handkerchief, nodded meekly, and left first.
After Sister Rong left, Brother Ji sat by the bed and said to his mother, who was pale and trembling: "Mom, don't be afraid. We have never done anything wrong, so there is no need to be afraid."
The mother and son did have ambitions for the crown prince position, and they also secretly won over some courtiers.
However, the DPRK and the Central Government have never proposed the establishment of a crown prince. They have not yet had time to resort to any means... It is barely fair to say that they have not done anything wrong.
Zhao Changqing closed his eyes. When he opened them again, tears welled up: "Brother Ji, I'm not afraid. I'm just angry and unwilling."
"Your father was the eldest prince at that time, but due to a mouth disease, he was not eligible for the throne. Your father was unwilling to accept it, and because your third uncle acted insidiously, ruthlessly, and could not bear it, he had the intention to rebel. As a result,
The snipe and the clam competed for the fisherman's profit, and the one who finally won the throne was the King of Shu who had left the capital early."
"Over the years, the emperor and the queen have been kind to us. I don't deny their affection in my heart. They have no heirs. I thought that if we were adopted, you would be the oldest and have outstanding talent, learning and character, so you would be able to compete.
"
"I really didn't expect that the empress would be so selfish and arrogant that she would make A Luo the crown prince!"
"They are going against heaven and the will of the officials and the people!"
"I want to see if they can accomplish this! Can Ah Luo sit on the throne of the crown prince? Even if he does, it is still unclear whether he can successfully ascend the throne as the empress in the future. How can the ministers be willing to do this?
He bowed his head and knelt before a woman!"
Angry and unwilling flames burned in Zhao Changqing's eyes.
Brother Ji's heart also surged with anger and injustice. He took a deep breath and whispered: "This is all a matter for the future. No matter what, we must be stable now. I have to gain a firm foothold in the court first.
I am qualified to wait for the day to come."
Zhao Changqing squeezed Brother Ji's hand tightly and wiped away his tears with the other hand: "You are right. We can't panic. We need to calm down and stabilize ourselves first."
Brother Ji is really too young. He has only been in the court for three months. His connections in the court are shallow and he has no foundation. Now he has no power to compete with the emperor.
The emperor wants to make A Luo his crown prince, but Brother Ji doesn't have the power to stop him.
However, the emperor's move will definitely arouse fierce opposition from the ministers. If Brother Ji waits patiently, there may not be a chance to turn around in the future.
