The queen is very optimistic about her three daughters-in-law in the future, one is positive and two pairs, and they are very well matched, including the daughter of the Bai family, the daughter of the Zhao family, the daughter of the Zhao family, and the daughter of the Xia family, who is favored by the emperor.

Among these three girls, there are those with strong family backgrounds, strong abilities, and exceptionally beautiful ones, which are all the fantasies of all women that a man needs, and this is the best for his son.

The opinions of the emperor and the empress gradually unified, and the two of them had privately decided that in two years, the emperor's eldest son would be able to marry him when he was fifteen years old. At that time, Zhao Zhenzhen will be recalled in advance, and then it will be determined that Zhao Zhenzhen is the main concubine, and the daughter of the Bai family and the daughter of the Xia family are the side concubines. After all, it is the prince who is married, the Ministry of Rites must prepare, the woman's family must prepare, and the palace will send someone to train the three girls, especially Zhao Zhenzhen, for a period of time. Therefore, the eldest son of the emperor must be sixteen years old when he gets married.

After the unification of opinions, the emperor and empress tacitly agreed, and both chose not to announce it to the public.

The queen continued to summon the capital as always, the officials of the foreign feudal realms, and even the nobles of the big and small families to the palace as guests, some of them were selected for the emperor's eldest son, some of them were old, and they were recommended to the emperor if they were pleasing to the eye, and some of them were even married to the royal family of the clan.

The ladies of the capital have basically been to the queen's palace as guests. As this continued, the queen's reputation grew, and everyone praised the queen as a virtuous, motherly, benevolent, and approachable queen.

Such a reputation spread. The white concubine in the palace, Concubine Ma Shu was naturally unhappy. They are missing an old rival Wang Xianfei Wang Yaozhen, but there are many young and beautiful beauties in the palace, plus Bai Guifei, Ma Shufei is also older, and they are all over thirty years old, although they are well maintained, they still look like beauties, but. There's still no way to compare with those young girls.

They have many more enemies. The first to string up was the princess. Now the princess is no longer the princess, she is already the princess of Wang De. As one of the four concubines, he already has the identity of competing with Bai Guifei and Ma Shufei. plus the family strength of the Wang family. Wang Defei's arrogant and domineering temperament. made Concubine Wang De the most popular figure in the palace, even more powerful than Concubine Bai's. Concubine Wang De's only deficiency is that she has never been pregnant until now, and she has not yet given birth to a prince to the emperor. If Concubine Wang De has a prince, I am afraid that she will dare to challenge even the queen.

In addition to Concubine Wang De, there is also a newly promoted concubine in the palace, that is, Li Concubine of the Li family, Li Liangdi, the prince of the year, although she had several ups and downs, she also became one of the four concubines, but she was not favored for many years, and she was still caught in the cracks, and her life was very difficult, and she died within a few years.

Now this Li Concubine was recently sent in by the Li family, only sixteen years old, very beautiful, not to mention, she was born with a good voice, and as soon as she sings, it seems to bring people to the snowy plateau, so she is very favored.

On top of that, she was pregnant. Such a young and beautiful concubine, with a strong family background and outstanding talents, is actually pregnant, and she will not be a strong competitor in the future.

The whole palace was filled with hostility towards her.

Concubine Li can only live cautiously.

In addition to Concubine Wang De and Concubine Li, in recent years, there have been many pregnant and born children in the palace, and the emperor has two more princes and three princesses. This, of course, is also attributed to the virtue of the queen.

The convergence of these virtuous names can only make Bai Guifei and Ma Shufei even more angry day by day.

The angry Bai Guifei and Ma Shufei came together as a matter of course and formed an alliance to deal with the queen together.

Now the queen and the new low-level concubines in the palace are one faction, Bai Guifei and Ma Shufei are one faction, Concubine Wang De is one faction, and Concubine Li is one faction.

These factions are evenly matched, and the queen has not fallen out of favor, and the emperor respects her very much, and will go to her palace for two or three nights every month. Bai Guifei and Ma Shufei went to the palace the most, and these two people combined for ten days. Although Concubine Wang De is also favored and often rewarded by the emperor, the emperor does not go to her much. That is, once or twice a month. Although Concubine Li is favored, she is pregnant, so naturally the emperor will not spend the night with her. The rest of the days were spent in the harem with beautiful young low-level concubines.

This time the womb is lively, the emperor's rain and dew did not make the entire harem calm, but made the harem more undercurrents, all kinds of frame-ups, all kinds of conspiracies, because of the competition for favor, endlessly, such a situation is that the queen Chen Wenfeng, who is good at management, also feels numb, the palace is no longer a quagmire, it is already a huge trap, no one here can be safe.

Fortunately, Queen Chen Wenfeng was fortunate that the eldest prince was already twelve years old and went out of the palace to build a mansion last year. After leaving the palace, the eldest prince had the guards of the Chen family, the manpower given by the emperor, and the care of the Xiao Chen family, and he was already able to protect himself.

But the young princes and princesses in the palace are miserable, there are often miscarriages, some princes are sick, and even the princes die young. Of course, every time something happens, it will cause a storm in the court, but after one turmoil, some people are punished, and another one rises again. It's really hard to prevent. The queen is also anxious.

The eldest prince could stay in the capital freely, his mansion was not built separately, the emperor solicited the opinion of the eldest prince, and directly gave the palace to the eldest prince when the emperor was still the prince.

Although no new house was built, and no beautiful royal gardens were given, the queen and the eldest prince were very satisfied, because the eldest prince lived in the emperor's previous palace, which was of great significance.

When these bad news reached the palace, Bai Guifei and Ma Shufei became even more angry.

The Bai family in the capital is also discussing the affairs of the imperial court, and the head of the Bai family said with a gloomy face: "At present, our Bai family is really not dominant, although the concubine Niangniang is favored, she has also done a lot of things for the family in the court in recent years, which has made the power of our Bai family rise sharply, but, after all, it is all in the mirror, all of this, after the crown prince is set in the future, and even when the new emperor ascends the throne, it will be cleared." At that time, it was uncomfortable. We've got to figure it out sooner. ”

The younger brother of the head of the Bai family said: "Yes, if the concubine Niangniang never becomes the queen, the prince she gave birth to cannot become the next emperor, and in the future, even the safety of the concubine Niangniang will be a problem, let alone us?" We should think about the future as early as possible, and everything that is foreseen will be established, and if it is not, it will be wasted. Plan ahead. ”

The head of the Bai family said: "Yes, we simply made up our minds to take refuge in the queen mother, contact the people of the Chen family, and tell them that as long as the queen mother makes us the concubine of the eldest prince, and promises that we will make the queen in the future, our Bai family will not support Bai Guifei, but will support the queen mother and the eldest prince." ”

The younger brother of the head of the family still asked with some hesitation: "But, if this matter is known to Bai Guifei, won't Guifei Niangniang blame us?" ”

The head of the Bai family said: "As the daughter of the family, this point must still be understood, you can enjoy the power of the family and enjoy the support of the family, but when the family needs to make trade-offs, you must completely obey the interests of the family." ”

The head of the family's brother stopped talking.

Soon, the people of the Bai family found Chen Yuanfeng, the contemporary head of the Chen family, Chen Yuanfeng was very satisfied with the choice of the Bai family, and he felt that he had made a great contribution, so he hurriedly asked his wife and eldest daughter-in-law to enter the palace together and talk to the queen about this matter.

Wang and Chen Wenqi's wives entered the palace, thinking that the queen mother would be happy to hear the news, but what they didn't understand was that the queen mother didn't show a happy look, she groaned, and a mocking smile appeared on the corner of her mouth: "Mother, sister-in-law, do you think the conditions given by the Bai family are very good?" ”

Wang didn't understand and said, "Isn't it bad?" ”

After all, this matter is related to the Bai family, so Chen Wenqi's wife is not easy to speak, she can only be silent.

The queen looked at her sister-in-law, pondered for a while, and said to her sister-in-law: "Sister-in-law, you have been at my house for many years, right?" There are several children, and in the future, the father and mother will definitely hand over the responsibility of the Chen family to you and the eldest brother. So, I don't think you should pass on what I'm going to say next to the Bai family. ”

Bai Yuying was startled, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "Niangniang, I was born as a member of the Chen family, and I died as a ghost of the Chen family, although I am the daughter of the Bai family, but since I married into the Bai family, the Bai family is not important." This is something that all the women of the family can do. Please believe me, the Queen. Also, the current mansion of the Bai family's capital is no longer our clan. We've become sideways, and I have no reason to help them. ”

The queen looked at Bai Yuying deeply. Although the Wang family is often confused, after all, she is a daughter of a family, and at this time, she still knows the importance of it, and is busy speaking for her daughter-in-law: "Niangniang, your sister-in-law has come to our house, and after so many years, she really has not had much contact with the Bai family. Especially after the Bai family changed their clansmen, they didn't have much contact with the mansion. You don't even have much contact with them. You have to believe your sister-in-law. ”

The queen mother groaned for a while and said: "Then sister-in-law, let me tell you, I will choose the daughter of the Bai family as my daughter-in-law, but it is not the main concubine, but the side concubine." ”

Saying this, Mrs. Wang and Bai Yuying were all taken aback.

Mrs. Wang asked: "Niangniang, the conditions of the Bai family are to let Bai Shuangshuang be the concubine, not only to be the concubine, but also to be the queen in the future." ”

The queen sneered and said, "The girl of the Bai family wants to be the queen, huh?" That will have to wait until I die. As long as I live for one day, my son and my grandson will not be able to let the Bai family girl be the queen. (To be continued......)
