Chapter 54: Canonization (2)
After the Queen Mother left, Fu Qingwu came in, she knelt on the ground and congratulated: "Congratulations to the emperor and queen for her joy." The palms of his hands were clenched tightly, and the nails that had just been painted with Dan had been broken by himself, but his face was bright and joyful, as if he had given birth to a child. In fact, just outside the palace, she heard the conversation in the hall clearly, Chu Xiangwan had just given birth to the prince, and the emperor couldn't wait to make her the queen, and to pass on the country of the Great Zhou Dynasty to her son, not to mention the queen mother, anyone who knew it would be eager to eat Chu Xiangwan alive. The queen mother is not easy to mess with, and the sentence "raising the prince" grabbed Chu Xiangwan's hind legs, so that even if she became the queen, she would not be able to compete with her.
"How can my sister call me that and give me this big gift?" Chu Xiangwan is not adaptable, and now some people call her the queen.
"Since the emperor has made an order, it is only a matter of a month to salute, and the queen's sister deserves it. Besides, in the emperor's heart, my sister is already an irreplaceable queen, isn't she? Fu Qingwu got up and looked at Chu Xiangwan with a soft smile, there were tears in her eyes that had not dried, and she seemed to be relieved by Chu Xiangwan's bitterness.
"Li Chongyuan is right, Xiang Wan, you are always so humble and polite, in fact, in my heart, you are the only one who can ascend to the phoenix throne, our son is also the undoubted prince." Huangfu Jingwen stared at Chu Xiangwan affectionately, and the others were not in his eyes at all.
"Your Majesty, there are still many dignified and knowledgeable sisters in the harem, and the concubines are just doing their own business. As for the matter of the prince, the child is still young, and it is too early to be canonized, and it is not too late for the emperor to decide when the prince becomes an adult in the future. Chu Xiangwan felt that the position of the queen was like the target of everyone, and it was not a happy thing to have the phoenix crown in hand, and the favor of the emperor and the emperor had already made her resentful, plus the position of the queen and the crown prince, the days of the harem were really difficult to move an inch. She hopes that the child will grow up safely and healthily, and not get involved in the royal power struggle. Unfortunately, things are always unsatisfactory, and she wants to escape from the whirlpool of strife, and fate wants to put her at the center of the storm.
"The emperor and his sister are in deep love, which is enviable, my sister actually doesn't need to worry so much, everything is with the emperor, and others can only obey orders even if they are not satisfied." Fu Qingwu said in a serious voice, her words made Huangfu Jingwen very useful, but Chu Xiangwan's brows wrinkled even deeper.
"Yes, I will protect you and your children for a day, and no one will hurt you in the slightest." Huangfu Jingwen made another solemn promise, Fu Qingwu glanced at Huangfu Jingwen and glanced away. Why, every time Huangfu Jingwen said such warm words, she was present, and witnessing such a scene again and again was tantamount to Ling Chi's torture to her. The harem is like this, a lot of young bodies, a lot of flower-like appearances, just waiting for one person to pick and enjoy, the flowers are gradually charming eyes are actually a good thing for balancing the harem situation, if this person puts all his feelings on a flower, it won't be long before the other flowers will wither and fall or ** taste. Just like Fu Qingwu, because he can't love it, he will become ruthless and desperate.
"Your Majesty, it's time to go to the early court." Ma Hui reminded beside him.
On the night Chu Xiangwan gave birth to a child, Huangfu Jingwen didn't close his eyes, but his spirit is very good now, and this huge joy makes him want to tell the world now, he helped Chu Xiangwan to lie down, and brushed the hair on her sideburns: "I went to the court, you worked hard all night, you should have a good rest." ”
Fu Qingwu took the court dress from Ma Hui's hand and changed it for Huangfu Jingwen, Chu Xiangwan looked at her on the side, the eyes of deep love were unobstructed, and she sighed in her heart: Your Majesty, it is better to take the person in front of you.
After Huangfu Jingwen left, Fu Qingwu stood by the bed and tucked the quilt for Chu Xiangwan: "Sister, my sister will go back to the palace first, and I will come to see my sister when my sister is resting." ”
Chu Xiangwan nodded, she was too tired this night, she had to rest well now, because after waking up, she would have to face endless battles and calculations.
"The concubine sees the queen mother." Fang Xiaozhou and Fang Xiaohan received the emperor's decree from the Sixth Palace, and they coincidentally arrived at Cihe Palace.
"Queen Mother, Chu Xiangwan saw that the queen was sealed, and her child became the prince again, and there would be no place for concubines and Yuan'er in this harem!" As soon as Fang Xiaozhou entered the door, before Fang Xiaohan could speak, he cried and knelt beside the Queen Mother, "What can we do in the future?!" ”
The Queen Mother had already frowned, Fang Xiao looked at her sister coldly, she used to be like this when she was at home, relying on the fact that she was the eldest daughter, she was coquettish and stupid everywhere, taking advantage of her father. In the past few years in the palace, she still hasn't grown at all, and when she encounters things, she will only cry, make trouble and hang herself, if she hadn't given birth to the emperor's eldest son, the queen mother would have made her an outcast. She is crying like this now, which will only incur the disgust of the Queen Mother.
"Shut up the mourners!" The Queen Mother waved away the tea cup on the table, this Fang Xiaozhou was the first to enter the palace, but he still couldn't hold anything like this, and the Queen Mother was also very nerve-wracking, "The mourning family told you that the emperor made that woman the queen the queen because the mourning family approved, and the mourning family will raise her children until they reach adulthood." ”
"Queen Mother!" Fang Xiaozhou was shocked by the Queen Mother's last words, she didn't understand why the Queen Mother made this decision, so she was stunned at the moment, and she didn't know what to ask for a while.
"What does the Queen Mother mean by this?" Fang Xiaohan didn't understand the Queen Mother's intentions at this time. Last night's incident was arranged by her, and judging from Xiaojun's return, Chu Xiangwan already knew about the Queen Mother's adultery, and the Queen Mother would not let Chu Xiangwan go, so how could she promise her the position of queen again?
"What is a woman's greatest hope in the harem? is the heir of the emperor, especially the prince, as long as the child is here in the mourning family, Chu Xiangwan must obey. Empress? It's just a false title, so give it to her if the emperor likes it. The days are still long, and it's hard to say whether the queen's position has a life. The Queen Mother said this, this child may be more important in Chu Xiangwan's heart than Chu Xiangwan's own life, so she is not afraid that Chu Xiangwan will make big waves.
"The Queen Mother is wise, as long as the concubines have the protection of the Queen Mother, they naturally don't have to be afraid. Sister, you don't have to worry, Yuan'er is the eldest son of the emperor, and the queen mother loves her very much, are you still afraid of the days when you don't have a future? Fang Xiaohan had to admire the Queen Mother's wrist, Chu Xiangwan couldn't say anything, and I am afraid that in the future, I can only be subject to the Queen Mother everywhere.
"Queen Mother, if you say this, the concubines will be at ease." Fang Xiaozhou also understood the trick, and burst into laughter. She stood up and pinched the shoulders for the Queen Mother, not daring to say more.
"You don't have to worry, as long as you do what the mourners tell you to do, you won't be trampled under your feet for a day." The Queen Mother glanced at the two of them and said lightly.
