As if seeing what Tang Jingchen was thinking, the emperor explained: "I summoned Li Xin'er to sleep tonight, and she was the one sitting in the car, but the little nobleman has arranged it, and will tell her that she is busy, and she will only wait for one night." ”

Tang Jingchen's eyes widened in surprise, "She can't sleep, won't she say it?" ”

The emperor smiled mockingly, "She can't cover it up, where will she say, it's that others heard the wind and asked her, I'm afraid she will make up some words to prove that she is really sleeping." ”

Tang Jingchen thought for a moment and understood, what the harem women are fighting for is the emperor's favor, whoever can sleep more can be arrogant, and others don't dare to provoke easily, Li Xin'er easily got into Fengluan Chun'en's car, these days are proud, how can they mess up.

The emperor pursed his thin lips slightly, and sighed: "I became the emperor in vain, but I have no ability to only wronged you, and I have to work hard to take you out for a walk." ”

Ordinary men will not easily show weakness in front of their own women, not to mention that he is still the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, Tang Jingchen felt sour in his heart, and said busily: "Your Majesty, don't say that, you are a good emperor, you are diligent in handling the government and politics, you love the people like a son, you are affectionate and righteous to the harem concubines, and filial piety to the queen mother, you are the best emperor." ”

The emperor sneered, "Filial piety? I am filial everywhere, and she is still on guard everywhere, if there is a little unfilial piety, let alone keep the throne, even my life may not be saved. ”

About the people around the carriage were serving confidants, so the emperor did not lower his voice when he said this, but expressed his heart directly, and it was also because of his trust in Tang Jingchen, so he said it without scruples.

Tang Jingchen was stunned for a moment, a vague thought flashed in her mind, her heart beat involuntarily, and she asked tremblingly, "What does the emperor mean?" ”

At this time, the carriage had already driven out of the palace, and the little nobleman drove it himself, and there was no other servant waiting for him.

The emperor lifted the corner of the curtain and looked at the street outside, then put it down again, and said in a deep voice: "When I first returned to the palace, Huang Ama was still alive, and the emperor couldn't cover the sky with one hand, so it was inevitable that some rumors would reach my ears." ”

"At first, I didn't believe it, I just thought they were jealous of my imperial mother, but the strange thing is that there are often people missing in the palace, and those people are the ones who spread rumors."

"It wasn't until the old lady doctor inadvertently mentioned the past and was convicted of being punished for the whole family under the pretext that I vaguely thought that maybe those words were not rumors or jealousy, maybe I was not the emperor's own son, and my mother had someone else."

Tang Jingchen was stunned, she never expected that the emperor would be suspicious for a long time, but why didn't he take the slightest action for so many years?

The Emperor continued: "The Wuya family followed Emperor Taizu from the dragon to enter the customs, and after several dynasties, there are people who have been officials, and the family power is huge and deep-rooted, even if I am the emperor, I can't easily fight against it. ”

Tang Jingchen was stunned when she heard it, she knew that the emperor was talking about the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother was born in the Wuya clan, and the Wuya clan was a first-class wealthy family in the Qing Dynasty, and it was indeed not easy to shake.

"I can only endure it, and use all kinds of excuses to let the people of the Wu Ya family no longer hold important positions, and it is also the favor of God, the Wu Ya family has not produced any talents over the years, and the children and grandchildren are not successful, and the queen mother pretends to be virtuous and does not care about the government, and finally barely struggles to find a decent situation."

Tang Jingchen said in a low voice: "Maybe the Queen Mother is not pretending to be virtuous, but things are going too smoothly, and she relaxed her vigilance." ”

The emperor nodded, "What you said makes sense, no matter what it is, it always gives me a chance, but I still don't dare to act rashly, everyone before and after is extremely filial, so she can rest assured of me." ”

Tang Jingchen instantly understood everything, why the emperor showed extraordinary pure filial piety to the Queen Mother, and why he tolerated the Queen Mother's several unbelievable actions.

"Your Majesty." She leaned lightly on the emperor's shoulder, "Why did you never tell your concubines this, did you carry it yourself, it's too bitter." ”

After saying that, she felt that she was too stupid, even if the emperor told herself, what could she do, she was an incapacitator, and she didn't know those scheming methods, the Tang family was originally a small landlord in the suburbs of Beijing, and she was not eligible to participate in the draft until her father was admitted to the imperial examination and became an official.

The Tang family and the Wuya family are simply different from each other, neither she nor her family can help the emperor in the slightest.

"It's all to blame for the incompetence of the concubines." She said apologetically to the emperor.

The emperor rubbed her hair, "You girl, where is it to blame you, it's me who is not good, for the sake of self-cultivation, let you suffer so many grievances." ”

Tang Jingchen shook his head, "Don't be wronged, the emperor is right to do this, if you are afraid that your concubines will be wronged and desperate, the queen mother will be vigilant and fight back, maybe your years of hard work will be ruined, let alone be able to protect your concubines." ”

The emperor hugged Tang Jingchen tightly, "You can understand this, and it will not be in vain for my affection for you." ”

Tang Jingchen suddenly felt a little shy, she had been in the palace for almost ten years, although the emperor had been doting on her, but until now, she had a feeling of being in touch with the emperor.

Lifting the corner of the car curtain, she looked back, the tall palace had been left far behind, and it looked a little small in the dark night, Tang Jingchen couldn't help but sigh, if he was not the emperor, if he was not a concubine, how good would it be.

There is no need to go through any more difficult planning in life, there is no struggle and no power, and they can live in peace.

"What do you think?" The emperor approached Tang Jingchen and looked outside with her.

Tang Jingchen looked at the emperor's handsome face, the high bridge of the nose and the thick eyelashes, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, I just feel fresh, since I entered the palace at the age of thirteen, the concubine has never come out." ”

The emperor looked at her deeply, "If you like it, I will often find opportunities to take you out in the future." ”

Tang Jingchen hurriedly shook his head, "That's too troublesome." ”

He only came out once, he had to make so many arrangements, she didn't want him to bother so much, his mind should be used more on court politics, she didn't want future generations to say that he was a faint monarch who was obsessed with women.

Suddenly, the carriage shook, Tang Jingchen was shocked, because she had just talked about those secret things, she immediately thought that it was the Queen Mother who had sent someone to harm them, her face immediately changed, and the emperor frowned slightly, "Little nobleman, what happened?" ”

"Young master, young grandmother, this is a busy city, and the carriage can't pass."

Tang Jingchen glanced out, and sure enough, he came to a bustling street, although it was night, it was brightly lit, the shops were open, and there was a stall on the street.

Sure enough, it was very lively.

The emperor said to Tang Jingchen: "Since the carriage can't pass, let's just get down and take a walk, what do you think?" ”
