Recently, it has been rumored in the palace that Jing Xuan resembles the style of the heroine of the previous dynasty, but in fact she is the most relied on by the emperor as a thinker and strategist, and her status in the emperor's mind is far better than that of the prime minister above the court, which makes Wanrong very unhappy. She asked herself to be not inferior to Jing Xuan at all, but only because of her outstanding appearance won the emperor's favor, although the emperor would occasionally praise her for one or two words such as cleaning up the palace affairs, but everyone in Yaohua Palace knew that the emperor would often come here because he was greedy for the joy of the bed, and he did not attach much importance to Wanrong's ability to take care of housework.

For this reason, Wanrong knew that the emperor was talking about state affairs at length in front of her, and he did not want to ask for her opinion as he did in the Baoxiang Palace, but it was just a whim to talk to someone who was already there, and she didn't really care about it. When he heard that the emperor wanted to do feudal things, he made all the sons over ten years old kings, and then he kept his heart because of auspiciousness.

Because when the rebels invaded Chang'an a few years ago, most of the emperor's relatives were killed and wounded, as far as Wanrong knew, among the emperor's more than a dozen princes, only Jixiang who was born to himself and Li Bin, who was recently infiltrated into the palace and cut off his head, were not yet ten years old.

Wanrong was secretly thinking about whether to fight for her son for the next throne, but she heard the emperor continue: "The mother and son of the Wang family and Bin'er have a hard life, although I am still not suitable for the Wang family to show their grievances, this time, I want to give Bin'er a title, so as to comfort the souls of their mothers in the sky." In addition, King Jianning has the strongest affection for me, and he was slandered and killed by the Zhang family, and I plan to posthumously present him as the emperor. What does Concubine Ai think? ”

For the first time, the emperor asked Wanrong's opinion on the government, but it didn't surprise Wanrong at all: according to the emperor's intentions, even the dead are counted, and only one auspicious person is not crowned king! It can't be that the little baby just slapped the prince away, right?

"Your Majesty, talking about these personal matters is not something that a woman like a concubine can take care of, but thinking about what His Majesty said can also be regarded as a family matter, the concubine will be bold and make a statement."

As soon as Wanrong opened her mouth, she planted a nail for Jing Xuan first.

"Bin'er's mother and son are pitiful, although King Jianning died long before the concubine married into the East Palace, but the concubine often heard people say that he has a deep relationship with His Majesty, and posthumously gifting them to his uncle and nephew can show His Majesty's benevolence, and the concubine has nothing to say.

However, when the concubines were in the boudoir, they were taught by their fathers, and they also knew a thing or two about the format and laws of the dynasty, and the ten-year-old baby could still be called a yellow-mouthed child, what could His Majesty expect them to do?

Moreover, if nine out of ten provinces are short of food today, that is, even the concubine's mother's family has recently skyrocketed due to the price of Changlou rice, and they can't open the pot, and they have to rely on the concubine Zhou Ji to barely survive. Your Majesty's great enclosure of the kings, wide fences, invisibly will inevitably increase the burden of tribute on the people, please think twice. ”

She was only halfway through her words, and the emperor had already heard the true thoughts implied in her words, and when he heard her say that her mother's family had almost reached the point of running out of cooking, he couldn't help but be really taken aback, and hurriedly asked: "I remember that at the beginning of my ascension, my father was promoted to Yinqing Guanglu Doctor, and he ate three grades of Dai, how could he end up with no food?" ”

"This is indeed the case, how dare the concubine deceive Your Majesty." Wanrong didn't explain too much, only replied lightly.

Before the look of surprise on the emperor's face had time to fade, he heard a rush of footsteps from far and near outside the hall, and then saw Wang Bao'er running in sweating profusely.

"In a panic, what a system! The oracle arrived? ”

The emperor didn't seem to want to see Wang Bao'er and ran straight to the harem to find him, and asked.

Wang Bao'er knelt on the ground with a "plop", flashed a graceful glance, and then said to the emperor: "If you return to the master, the oracle has arrived, but he repeatedly asked the little one why there was no canonization edict, and he had to enter the palace with the little one to thank the lord in person." The little one was helpless, so he had to ask the forbidden army of Danfeng Gate to stop him outside the door temporarily, under the pretext that the little one had to pay homage to the master before inviting him in......"

This Wang Bao'er is accustomed to seeing the wind and making the rudder, although he is not as clever as Xing'er, but his eyesight is ten times better than Xing'er. The Emperor only asked him a question, and he could immediately guess from the Emperor's unhappy tone that the Emperor did not want anyone else to know about the mission he had made today, so he only called him in his reply, without specifying who he was.

Although Wanrong couldn't hear any clues from Wang Bao'er's reply, the emperor understood, and he secretly praised Wang Bao'er for being sensible, and he didn't leak the heavenly opportunity in his words, so he slowed down his tone and ordered: "You go out of the palace and tell him that I am drunk and has not woken up, and the concubine has something to say, please let him enter the palace again tomorrow." If he refuses to leave, you might as well send him a message in your own name, saying that I will make all the sons kings in three days, and his canonization edict will be given to him at that time, so that he can rest assured that there is no need to rush at this time. ”

Wang Bao'er agreed quickly, didn't even dare to take a breath, turned around and ran away.

Wang Bao'er came and went, and every question and answer between him and the emperor was almost not the slightest stagnation and redundancy, and Wanrong hadn't heard a clue from the conversation between the two, and Wang Bao'er had already disappeared.

"Aifei, I understand your mind." The emperor did not allow him to think much about the conversation between him and Wang Bao'er, so he persuaded Wang Bao'er from the topic before he came, "I have already made plans for your mother and son by doing this. Jixiang is only two years old, once he is crowned king like his brothers, everyone else will be immediately vassal, and it is not good to leave him alone in Beijing. And if you send him to the domain, a two-year-old baby, are you willing to let him leave your side? Rest assured, I will be kind to him in the future, and I will never cause him to be wronged. ”

Wanrong listened to the emperor only willing to give her an empty promise, and refused to change his mind, this time he will be auspicious and other older princes together with the king, unwilling, intending to argue for his son again, only to hear the emperor say again: "I can't imagine that the dignified three-grade master, the family of relatives outside the palace, the current situation is so difficult, and I have to rely on the concubine from the palace to help barely survive." So be it. I plan to ask Wu Bi to take the position of Jing Zhaoyin at the same time, and he is in charge of Yu Linwei, I am afraid that it will be difficult to take care of both ends for a while. Your brother Dugu is not famous yet, right? ”

Wanrong was overjoyed and nodded hurriedly.

"Then let him go to Jingzhao Mansion with Xuan'er's brother Jing Zhao to assist Wu Bi on his errand. I will issue an edict tomorrow to give the two of them a title of Qianniu, but in fact, they are running errands under Wu Bi. In this way, your brother may be able to improve the situation of the family with this messenger......"

Although he failed to fight for his son for a prince, he unexpectedly earned a five-rank forbidden military rank and a first-class fat difference for his brother, and a smile finally bloomed on Wanrong's face. (To be continued.) )
