Chapter Ninety-Six: Harem Struggle

Back in the palace. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 infoLi Xiaojiu's originally happy mood suddenly became terrible. He was lying on his side on the couch, and he had the urge to drop something.

I can't help but admire Wang Ling'er's ability to find out the news, and the news that the emperor and Wang Dezhao left the palace in disguise soon reached Concubine Xiao Shufei's ears through her mouth.

Thinking that the emperor had been out for most of the day, he must have gone to meet some woman privately, Concubine Xiao Shu felt very uncomfortable, for a long time, the emperor spent the night in her palace, sometimes she mistakenly thought that the emperor was her own, she once thought that his son was made the crown prince, and it was only a matter of time before she became the queen.

But the emperor had to go out alone, and it was sneaky, not to find a woman, what else could it be, thinking of this, she was very angry, the silk scarf in her hand was twisted in her hand, she didn't want the emperor's heart to belong to other women, she wanted to tie the emperor's heart firmly as before, so she decided to go to the emperor's Wude Hall to deal with the government.

Usually harem concubines are not allowed to enter there, but Concubine Xiao Shu can't take care of it so much now.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Xiao Shu is asking to see you outside." Wei Shun'an came in to report, he knew that the emperor was not happy today, so he could only report carefully.

Li Xiaojiu was indeed upset now, looked at Wei Shunan with some impatience, and asked:

"What is she here for?"

"Back to the emperor, Concubine Shu Niangniang has sent you ginseng soup." Wei Shunan reported truthfully.

"Let her in."

After Li Xiaojiu finished speaking, he sat lazily on the dragon couch, he felt that he was too tired, and there was always a government that could not be dealt with. In fact, what annoys him the most is the eldest grandson Wuji, Chu Suiliang, and these courtiers, if he wants to do something, he needs to get their consent, otherwise it will be difficult to implement.

In this way, he, the emperor, is like a puppet, and he is not used to this feeling.

When Li Xiaojiu was thinking about those uncomfortable things, Concubine Xiao Shufei had already walked in front of him, Li Xiaojiu still loved this woman in his heart, after all, this woman gave birth to three children for him.

"Why did Concubine Ai remember to come here today?" Li Xiaojiu pulled Concubine Xiao Shufei to his side and greeted him with concern.

Concubine Xiao Shufei maintained a gentle smile and said quietly:

"The concubine heard that the emperor has to deal with a lot of political affairs every day, which is a very laborious job, so I prepared some ginseng soup for the emperor and sent it over."

She didn't dare to directly say that the emperor had secretly gone out of the palace, and letting the emperor know that he was sending someone to follow him would definitely anger him.

"You're still most concerned about me."

Li Xiaojiu stroked Concubine Xiao Shu's slender jade hand and said with some emotion.

To be honest, except for the eldest grandson queen since he was a child, few people have really cared about him like this.

Concubine Xiao Shufei smiled and said:

"What is the emperor still polite to his concubines, aren't we harem concubines all living for the emperor?"

Li Xiaojiu's hand stroked Xiao Shufei's hand for a while, smiled and said:

"Okay, you also sent the things, let's go back first, I still have to deal with government affairs."

Regarding Li Xiaojiu's eviction order, Concubine Xiao Shufei did not pay attention to it, but sat on Li Xiaojiu's lap and said:

"The concubine wants to stay with the emperor for a while."

"What, I quarreled with the queen again today?"

Li Xiaojiu knows this Concubine Xiao Shu's temperament very well, every time she quarrels with Queen Wang, she will come to her to complain, and Li Zhi really feels a little ashamed of her. Concubine Xiao Shu gave birth to so many children for him, but he couldn't fulfill her desire to be a queen.

"Well, the queen said that the emperor would not want concubines, but she frightened the concubines."

Concubine Xiao Shufei said with some grievances, in fact, she also thought so in her heart.

Li Xiaojiu knew the temperament of Queen Wang, he would definitely not say such a thing so directly, and pretended to be distressed and said:

"What's wrong with this queen? I don't usually look at her as such an ignorant person! ā€

"The concubine didn't expect the queen's jealousy to be so strong."

Concubine Xiao Shu pretended to be very hurt and said:

"In fact, the concubines also know that how can there be no other women around the emperor! But the concubines also know that the emperor will not leave the concubines alone, right? ā€

Looking at Concubine Xiao Shu's smart, charming and affectionate eyes, Li Xiaojiu's heart softened, every time he saw her charming eyes, Li Xiaojiu couldn't control his emotions a little, he reached out and twisted his hips, comforted her and said:

"Don't take it to heart, the queen is the queen after all, the lord of the harem, I sometimes have to let her, but the queen, gentle temperament, knowledgeable and courteous, is by no means a lord who loves to deliberately make things difficult, as long as you are humble and polite in front of her, I don't think the queen will find you any trouble."

Li Xiaojiu didn't lie, Queen Wang is not only just a queen, behind him is the Taiyuan Wang clan, the largest family since the Sui and Tang dynasties, even he can't easily move them.

It is not a simple matter to abolish the queen, there will be many people in the court to speak for her, first of all, the eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang will not agree.

Concubine Xiao Shu didn't care about this, and when she saw that the emperor was speaking for the queen instead, she pursed her lips, turned her back on her face, and thought:

I have already given birth to three children for you, but the queen has not given birth to any of them, why should she still occupy the position of the queen, and still be so righteous.

Looking at Concubine Xiao Shufei's unconvinced look, Li Xiaojiu let go of her hand and said:

"I'm very busy now, you go back to the palace first, what's the matter, let's talk about it in the evening."

"The concubine obeys." After listening to the emperor's words, Concubine Xiao Shu immediately left happily, she knew that the emperor would go to her today, and the emperor's heart was still with her.

Thinking of these, Concubine Xiao Shufei's heart let go.

After watching the emperor's performance today, Concubine Xiao Shu understood that it was definitely not so easy to shake the big tree of the queen and queen, so she decided to start with something else first.

So, he encouraged Li Xiaojiu to divide her son Li Sujie as the king of Yong.

Li Zhi couldn't resist the tenderness, and on the night of the same day, after a burst of clouds and rain, he agreed.

In this way, Li Sujie became the king of Yong, this is the king of Yong!

King Yong is not a simple prince, this is not only understood by Li Zhi, the ministers in the court, but also the ladies in the harem. That position is reserved for the son born to the queen, although the queen has no son now, it does not mean that the queen will not have a son in the future!

Now the emperor actually gave this position to Li Sujie, what does this mean, it means that the emperor's mind has changed and is no longer on the queen.

And there is another signal, that is, in the emperor's heart, Concubine Xiao Shu's status is already higher than that of Queen Wang.

The news spread quickly, and almost all the people around the center of power knew about it. Queen Wang is no exception, so she is very sad and angry, she didn't expect the emperor to make Li Sujie the king of Yong, this is the treatment that only the son of the queen has to treat!

If Concubine Xiao Shu became the queen, what would she do, she was a little confused.

Since that quarrel with Concubine Xiao Shu, Queen Wang has not been happy, and she can always feel a pair of eyes staring at her in the endless darkness.

"Queen Mother, Madame Liu is outside asking to see you."

A waiter came in to make a report. Madame Liu is the mother of Empress Wang, and since she became the empress, Madame Liu has always arranged everything for her.

Queen Wang quickly put away her sadness and came out to greet her with a smile. After seeing Madame Liu, Queen Wang smiled and said:

"Mother, why are you here?"

Mrs. Liu naturally knows her daughter, and she always hides something in her heart. Although her daughter didn't say it, it didn't mean that she didn't know, she followed Queen Wang into the dormitory, and asked with some concern: "Queen Mother, how are you doing this time?" ā€

"Mother, my daughter has always been doing well." In fact, hearing her mother's concerned greetings, Queen Wang's heart was also sour, she wanted to tell her mother about the pain in her heart, but she couldn't let her mother worry about her anymore.

Seeing her daughter's pretended smile, Mrs. Liu felt even more uncomfortable, and after sitting down, she said lightly:

"Even if the queen mother is uncomfortable, she has to open a little, I have heard a lot of things in the palace, although it is not my business, but I can't watch you being bullied like this. You can rest assured that we have the backing of our Wang family, I think Concubine Xiao Shufei can't bear it."

Speaking of the Wang family, Queen Wang gradually gained confidence in her heart, she knew that it was definitely not an easy thing for Concubine Xiao Shufei to bring her down, so her mood gradually improved.

When Queen Wang and Concubine Xiao Shu were fighting in the palace, Li Zhi went out of the palace again.

But this time there was a mysterious person behind his car, he was not Li Zhi's bodyguard, and of course Li Zhi couldn't find him.

Coming to Ganye Temple again, this time Li Xiaojiu was not disappointed, Wang Dezhao had already arranged everything.

When he saw that this person was the current emperor, the host Lao Ni was still stunned, and it took a while to come back to his senses and hurriedly led Li Zhi to Wu Mei's meditation room.

When she saw Li Xiaojiu eagerly walking into the room of the bright sky, the abbot Lao Nun was quickly twisting the Buddhist beads in the dark courtyard, she thought that if the Son of Heaven was bewitched by a woman, the woman must have fairy magic and demon magic.
