Baoyi returned to the main hall of Chuxiu Palace, and immediately an old woman gave her a cup of fragrant tea.
"Girl, you did a good job this time."
Baoyi picked up the fragrant tea and took a sip, and then said: "Mother Wang, has it really come to this point?"
"Okay, my girl, are you still nostalgic for that unsatisfactory thing?"
Baoyi put down the tea cup and shook her head, then said: "Since their father and son gave me to Liu Hai, I have no thoughts about them. Now I just think that I can live in peace and live this life. If I have the ability,
It would be even better if I could have a baby."
"Girl, you can't be so negative. Yi Laonu thinks you have a bright future."
"What's the future? Dingtian is just a puppet queen."
"Young lady, you are wrong. From what I see, the current situation is already unstable. It is not certain who will be named after this situation in the future."
After Mrs. Wang finished speaking, she came closer to Baoyi and whispered in his ear: "I think in the future, if something goes wrong, Mr. Liu will be in charge of the country. If you have a child and you can't save it, you'll have to pay for it."
Ninety-five percent of it."
After hearing this, Baoyi smiled and shook her head and said: "Don't talk nonsense. Even if I have a child, I can't surpass the one born by the first wife. This throne will never be passed to our family."
But the old mother shook her head and said: "Girl, think about it, from ancient times to the present, after the founding emperor, how many princes have ascended the throne."
Baoyi's eyes brightened after hearing this. Now she has no hope for her future. If she can have a child and give him a future, then she will have the courage to live.
At this time Qian Shun also came to the back garden.
Now Qian Shun is the chief steward of the palace. When he came to the imperial garden, the eunuch at the door naturally did not dare to stop him.
So Qian took a few little eunuchs with him and swaggered into the imperial garden.
Along the way, Qian followed others and paid no attention to the eunuchs and maids. After a while, he arrived in front of the small pavilion where Emperor Xingqing was sitting.
When they arrived here, Qian Shun was finally stopped.
However, the eunuch who stopped him did not dare to offend the chief steward, but said with a face full of objectivity: "Chief steward, you have something to see the emperor."
Qian Shun looked at the eunuch with disdain and said, "Go and report to the emperor that our family wants to see him."
The little eunuch didn't dare to neglect, turned around and entered the small pavilion.
At this time, Emperor Xingqing was chatting happily with his father when he suddenly saw the little eunuch coming in and was a little unhappy.
"Didn't I say not to disturb you? Why are you here, a slave?"
That young eunuch was also a confidant of Emperor Xingqing, so Emperor Xingqing did not intend to deal with him.
"Long live my lord, Qian Shun is outside asking for an audience."
After hearing this, Emperor Xingqing's face became ugly. Qian Shun, this bitch slave! Now hugging Liu Hai's stinky feet, in the palace, in addition to respecting Baoyi, he is domineering towards others.
As an emperor, I have also been angry with him several times.
Prince Rui Zaiyi was older and less angry. Seeing that his son was about to get angry, he hurriedly pressed Emperor Xingqing's arm with one hand and said to the little eunuch: "Call Qian Shun in."
The little eunuch breathed a sigh of relief and then exited the pavilion.
After a while, Qian walked into the pavilion with a smile on his face, kowtowed to Emperor Xingqing first, and then gave a thousand to Prince Rui Zaiyi.
Emperor Xingqing sat there and asked with a bad expression: "What are you doing here? I don't seem to have sent you a message."
"Back to Lord Long Live, I have been ordered by Duke Wu to explain something to the emperor."
"Tell me what you have to say."
"Back to the emperor, Duke Wu asked me to report to the emperor that the emperor has been on the throne for some time, but he has not granted a large harem. If this happens, I am afraid that the palace will be unstable, so Wu Guogong asked the emperor to start granting harem rewards."
After hearing this, Emperor Xingqing clenched his fists. The reason why he did not enfeoff the harem after he ascended the throne was because he knew in his heart that if it were to be enfeoffed, Ergenjueluo Baoyi would be the first person who could not get around it.
And Emperor Xingqing didn't want Liu Hai's lover to become the queen of his palace. By then, even Liu Hai's illegitimate son might be eligible to inherit the throne.
Qian Shun, who was below, saw that Emperor Xingqing was silent. He raised his head and asked with a smile: "What do you mean, long live the Lord? Just tell me so that I can go back and report to Duke Wu."
"The affairs of the harem are my family affairs. I am still young, and the people in the harem are not too old either. I think it will not be too late to divide the harem into feudal families in a few years."
After Qian Shun heard this, his expression became a little ugly.
Because he could see that Liu Hai's order today was to give an explanation to his lover Baoyi. If this matter could not be done, how would he explain it to Wu Guogong after he returned?
"Long live my Lord, you are not young at all. How can you be an emperor, have a wife, and not be crowned a queen? I will see you for a day or two, so I'd better pass on the decree."
Although Emperor Xingqing was somewhat successful, he was still young after all. He was sent away and became angry immediately.
"Bold slave, is this what you should say to your slave?"
After Emperor Xingqing said this, he shouted to the outside: "Come here, send the money manager out."
As soon as Emperor Xingqing finished speaking, three or four eunuchs came in from outside and came behind Qian Shun.
Qian Shun didn't have any fear, but smiled softly, "My servant's words have also reached me. Since the emperor is not happy, I will leave."
After Qian Shun finished speaking, he saluted Emperor Xingqing, then turned and left the pavilion.
Emperor Xingqing stared at Qian Shun's back with red eyes. After a long time, he let out a long breath.
Then Emperor Xingqing, the younger brother of Emperor Xingqing, said to his father with a wry smile on his face: "Father, have you seen it? What does this emperor mean?"
Prince Rui Zaiyi felt chilled when he saw this, but he still comforted Emperor Xingqing, "You have to be patient for the time being. In ten or twenty years, when Liu Hai is a little tired, we will secretly take action to divide and disintegrate him."
His subordinates may be able to regain their power."
Emperor Xingqing nodded after hearing this, and then sighed, "I deeply hate being born in an emperor's family."
Prince Rui Zaiyi was still in no mood. After staying here any longer, he saluted his son and then exited the palace.
After Prince Rui left, Emperor Xingqing sat in the small pavilion for a while, where he became more and more angry as he thought about it.
Finally, Emperor Xingqing slapped the table, "You Liu Hai can go to the Chuxiu Palace, why can't I, a just and righteous husband?"
So Emperor Xingqing said loudly to his eunuchs: "Show me the palace."
The eunuchs under Emperor Xingqing were in a daze when they heard what he said.
These eunuchs knew that since Emperor Xingqing ascended the throne, he had never set foot in Chuxiu Palace.
However, although they were doubtful in their hearts, they did not dare to neglect it, and Luan Jia quickly arranged it.
Emperor Xingqing took a luan and drove all the way out of the Imperial Garden to the entrance of Chuxiu Palace in front.
When the eunuch at the gate of Chuxiu Palace saw Luan Jia coming, he immediately knew that the emperor had arrived, so he sent someone in to report and knelt at the gate to wait for Emperor Xingqing.
Emperor Xingqing's chariot did not stop at the entrance of Chuxiu Palace, but entered directly.
At this time, Irgenjueluo Baoyi, along with the eunuchs and maids from the palace, knelt at the door to greet him.
Emperor Xingqing got off the carriage, glanced sideways at Baoyi, snorted, and turned around to enter the inner palace.
Baoyi was left hanging there on the spot. Fortunately, Grandma Wang next to Baoyi had experience. She stepped forward, gently helped Baoyi up, and took her into the Chuxiu Palace.
Arriving inside the Chuxiu Palace, Emperor Xingqing sat carelessly in the middle, looked at Baoyi who was standing at the bottom, and asked: "Did anyone come here just now?"
When Baoyi heard this, her face turned red, and she felt a burst of shame and anger rising in her heart.
When Emperor Xingqing saw that Baoyi was silent, he snorted coldly, and then ordered: "Prepare the meal, I want to have dinner here."
Although Baoyi was angry in her heart, she did not disobey Emperor Xingqing's words, but respectfully withdrew and prepared dinner for him.
After a while, dozens of delicacies were placed in the front hall of Chuxiu Palace.
Next, Emperor Xingqing had dinner, served by Baoyi.
At this time, Emperor Xingqing did not leave, but said to Baoyi: "I will rest here today, you can make arrangements."
Baoyi was stunned when she heard this. She did not expect that Emperor Xingqing would rest here after ignoring her for so many days.
But Baoyi didn't think about anything else. After all, which concubine the emperor wanted to place was not something he or she could decide alone.
So Baoyi withdrew and prepared to bathe and change clothes so that she could serve the emperor.
But at this time, the mother Wang next to him grabbed Baoyi and said, "My girl, you can agree to this kind of thing."
Baoyi was puzzled after hearing this, and then asked: "The emperor wants to settle in my place. Is there anything I can't agree to?"
Grandma Wang hated the fact that iron cannot be made into steel. She nodded Baoyi with her finger and said, "After you let the emperor rest here today, whose child will you be pregnant with? Aren't you trying to please both sides?"
Baoyi was shocked when she heard this. She really didn't expect this. Now she has lost the emperor's trust. If she loses Liu Hai as her backer, her life will be over.
"Then mom, tell me, what should I do?"
"You stay behind and hide, I'll send someone to notify Eunuch Qian Shun."
Baoyi thought for a moment, then nodded, turned around in a circle, and instead of going to his harem, he ran to the palace maid's room and hid.
Grandma Wang knew that things could not be delayed. After she came out, she immediately sent a young eunuch to look for Qian Shun and report the current situation.
But Grandma Wang herself tidied up her clothes and went to the main hall of Chuxiu Palace to trip up Emperor Xingqing to avoid any trouble.
