By the time he appeared in front of the courtiers again in the fourth year, his temperament had changed drastically, and he was not the same as before.

It is unknown to outsiders what these changes are manifested in, after all, they are the secret anecdotes of the royal family, and they are not enough to be praised to the outside world.

And even if he had not been to the court for the past three years, the news that came out of the palace was just that the emperor was ill, and all the affairs of the court were entrusted to the high-ranking officials in the country, and there was not much delay.

After the emperor returned to the court, the first thing he did was to take back the power of the court neatly in his hands, and the decision to kill was really worthy of being a real king.

In the same year, the queen, who had been married into the palace for nearly four years, finally had a movement in her belly, but she gave birth to the first prince of Nanzhao Kingdom a year apart, and it was also the eldest son of the emperor who was justifiably honored.

The emperor held a feast in the palace for three days and three nights, and there were countless cases of amnesty and tax exemption, and the whole country was not very happy because of this, which was a sensational joy.

After the eldest son of the emperor had placed the full moon wine, the emperor personally issued an edict and made him the prince of the East Palace, the first heir to the throne of the Southern Zhao Kingdom, and the only heir in the future.

Since then, the royal family has completely relieved their hearts, it seems that the emperor has been silent for three years, but he has solved all the charm of the demon girl. This person is on the right track, and what he does is very normal.

Just when everyone let down their guard, the emperor happened to meet another woman outside the palace, so he repeated the trick and brought her back to the palace.

But this time it was definitely not as good as last time, he only placed the woman in the palace and sealed a small nobleman, and then he gave up.

At first, everyone was very vigilant, for fear that the emperor would be confused by ghosts again, so they had to abandon the virtuous and virtuous queen of the famous family to welcome the commoner woman as the queen.

Just when everyone's eyes widened and stared at the woman, they saw that the emperor was indifferent to her, and he only went to her palace once or twice a month, and most of them were accompanying the queen the rest of the time, and even the other concubines were a little more favored than the woman's.

And the most important thing is that the noble man is obviously much more knowledgeable than the previous one, since he was brought back to the palace by the emperor, he has always been honest and responsible in his palace, and he has never done anything out of the ordinary, even the jealousy that ordinary concubines will have.

After two years of such peace, just when the royal family relaxed their vigilance again, news of the nobleman's pregnancy and childbirth came out one after another in the palace.

The emperor promoted her to the throne of concubine when she was pregnant, and after she successfully gave birth to the emperor's child, he honored her as a concubine.

Now the folk woman who was once unknown in the palace has become the emperor's first concubine in the harem in just three years.

This matter will naturally cause uneasiness among the royal family, after all, the Chen Concubine in front of her is too similar to the woman who died tragically under the joint efforts of everyone before, and they are worried that the emperor's previous knot has not been relieved, but is performing roundabout tactics.

But just when they were still talking about it and had not yet put it on the table, the emperor suddenly rewarded the harem lavishly, and the four concubines below the queen were complete, except for the Chen concubine, the qualifications of the others were neither high nor low, neither showing that the Chen Concubine was particularly outstanding, nor did she be overshadowed in it.

There are countless concubines and nobles, and one day after the queen occasionally mentioned that the national draft would enrich the harem, the emperor readily agreed and began to work on the election of the show girl.

After such a series of things were done, everyone immediately blurred the focus of Concubine Chen's matter, and they couldn't pay attention to it anymore.

After all, the emperor suddenly wanted to accept newcomers to enrich the harem, and he never saw the newcomers laugh and not hear the old people crying, who could take care of the morning concubine who was even more restrained and silent after giving birth to the prince.

Now all the ministers have sharpened their heads and want to send their school-age daughters or beautiful girls in their relatives to the palace, who cares about that stall of idle affairs, and they are not full of food.

And the most important thing is that since the emperor has succeeded to the throne for many years, in addition to the crown prince born to the queen, there is only the prince born by Concubine Chen. The rest of the children under his knees were all princesses, and no prince was born.

After the draft, dozens of young and beautiful women entered the palace, if anyone will give birth to a prince, there is an example of Concubine Chen, who was named a concubine, then wouldn't the woman be from the previous Cheng Yuanda should soar.

It's just that in the next few decades, don't talk about princes, and even princesses rarely come out.

Yes, the emperor of Nanzhao Kingdom has only two sons so far, the eldest son born to the queen of the middle palace, and the fourth prince of the fourth prince born to the commoner woman Concubine Chen.

By the way, the flower butterfly that flew around in Changle City and touched the grass was the youngest son of the Emperor of Nanzhaoguo. Although he is now past the age of the weak crown, in his father's place, he can still roll around and get everything he wants.

In the blink of an eye, so many years had passed, and I thought that the emperor would let go of the past and forgive those who had teamed up to kill his most beloved and their unborn child. But I never thought that the two years that the emperor made those drafts and the establishment of the queen's son as the crown prince were just to hide people's eyes, just in these years, he not only loved Concubine Chen's mother and son more and more, but also forced all the royal clansmen who participated in them to a dead end, either assassination or placement of crimes to rob the family and behead, no one let go.

Now that she can survive safely in the world, she is only the queen in the deep palace.

But whether the queen's life is safe or not, this is impossible for outsiders to know.

Although Qi Nian has been living a very leisurely life on the surface these days, she has already checked the situation of various countries clearly when the envoys came.

After all, only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one win all battles, she understands this truth very well.

And she took the trouble to do all this, just because, according to the memory of her previous life, the emperor would begin to fall ill at the end of the summer of this year, and the disease was menacing and no imperial doctor could know it, and soon he would not be able to afford to fall ill and his life was in danger.

It was also at this time that the huge country of Weiyang was about to change hands.

Looking at the current political situation in the court, although the seventh prince Li Jinjian's voice is the highest and the emperor's favorite, after all, the foundation of the later people is unstable, and there is no strong enough support from his mother's family. If he really competed for the throne based on strength, he might not have a 100% chance of winning.
