The Ji clan has been removed, although it only blows away a dark cloud, at least it makes people see the hope of seeing the light of day. In the harem, Concubine Ji Guifei has been acting for many years, and Queen Wu did not hesitate to hide in order to protect herself. Now that Concubine Ji has passed away, her "illness" as a lady in the main palace has also miraculously improved.

"Kang Tai, Bengong's illness has been cured, accompany Bengong to Wuying Hall to meet the emperor." Even if the queen has lived in Chiyun Palace for a long time and does not see outsiders, she will dress up neatly every day, wearing her luxurious phoenix crown that symbolizes the queen, and today is of course no exception.

"The queen mother, now the emperor ...... We can't see each other if we want to, the minister has to go and report to Lord Cao first, and when Lord Cao and they make arrangements, the emperor summons us, and then we can go. Now the emperor's palace gate is guarded by Wu Dezhong and Qiu Ning. Kang Tai said cautiously.

The queen was stunned, sighed and said, "The emperor cultivates, why is he still enclosing himself?" That's not as good as when Ji was there...... That's it, then go and call the concubines, the golden cinnamon in Tianxiangyuan is open, and the palace will invite them to come over tomorrow to enjoy the flowers and tea. ”

Kang Tai snorted and went out to make arrangements.

The queen summoned the concubines of the palaces, and it was not surprising that the queen was the lord of the six palaces, and she said that she had been exempted from illness and the concubines on the first and fifteenth days of the palace, and everyone changed to the Green Shadow Palace to ask for peace to Concubine Ji Guifei, who was in charge of the affairs of the six palaces. Now that the queen is sick, the concubines should naturally go to the queen's palace.

Tianxiang Garden is a small garden in the Chiyun Palace, named after the four seasons of flowers planted with various colors, and now the peony flowering period has just passed, but the row of golden cinnamon around the garden is blooming fragrantly. As soon as the refreshments were set up in the Tianxiang Pavilion, the concubines came.

"Queen Mother Jin An!" Concubine Ji, Concubine Su, Concubine Yuan and the three concubines asked for An Tao in unison. There are not many concubines in the emperor, and there are only a few heirs left, and that is also because the number is small, and the emperor can count them, so it is difficult for Concubine Ji to do it.

"Sit down. I haven't seen you for a long time, and when I see that all of you look good, I'm relieved. The queen smiled and said, "There is less smoke and miasma in the palace, and even this flower blooms better than before." Call all the sisters here today, one is that I haven't seen you for a long time, and the palace misses you very much, and the other is that the emperor's birthday is coming, I don't know what the sisters think? ”

"Thanks to Niangniang's blessing, the flowers of Tianxiang Garden have always bloomed better than elsewhere. When the palace came, I saw that the begonias outside the listening rain pavilion were also opened, but unfortunately the begonias were not fragrant, so it was better for the mother to have aura here. As for the emperor's birthday...... Niangniang, you haven't seen the emperor for a long time, don't you know, the emperor has changed his birthday to the ninth day of the first month, and the Jade Emperor God was born on the same day. Concubine Su said with a smile.

I heard that the rain pavilion was a place where the emperor gave the concubine Yi Guifei to show his affection, and she really didn't hear about the emperor's birthday. The queen listened to it for a while, but she pretended not to hear it, and said calmly: "That's it." Now that the emperor is obsessed with cultivation, he is indifferent to the former dynasty and the harem, and our harem only keeps their respective duties and does not add chaos to the emperor. ”

"The concubine has a happy event to report to the emperor, and this morning the chamberlain came to spread the word, saying that the emperor summoned the concubine, and the concubine was going to Wuying Palace, and asked the queen to forgive her sins." Concubine Su said, and stood up with a smile.

The queen picked up the teacup, brushed the tea leaves floating on the tea soup with the lid of the cup, and asked quietly: "If Concubine Su has any happy events, how can she only tell the emperor?" Speaking out also makes the sisters rejoice. ”

Concubine Su covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled: "It's Mrs. Liu and Miss Zhou in Li'er who are happy, the house doctor and the imperial doctor have gone to see it, and it has been confirmed that both of them are two months pregnant. The emperor only has two imperial grandsons, but one lives in the Shenfu courtyard and no one mentions it, and the other is raised in Zhuangzi and no one cares. Hearing this news, the emperor must be happy! After speaking, Concubine Su didn't wait for the queen to show her, twisted her waist and went out.

"It's a real joy!" The queen had a smile on her face, but she thought of her poor son and grandson in her heart: this palace is also a person with children and grandchildren, but why is he living so poorly? An old woman who has no children can't fight in this palace, does anyone still want to learn to climb to the head of this palace?

Seeing that the queen had relatives, Concubine Yuan poked the fire and said: "Concubine Su is so blessed, King Kang has not yet married, and there are two children in this concubine's room!" Poor Pingkun that kid...... The eldest grandson of the emperor who gave birth to the eldest son of a good concubine, but he can't return home to ......"

"Concubine Su's trick was originally used to deal with Concubine Ji, right? wants the eldest son to be bigger than the sister-in-law, which is why she has such a means. The queen picked up the teacup and took another sip, and said disdainfully: "But the imperial heir is thin, and having a child is a happy event after all, so the palace will not care about her." ”

When she got out of Tianxiang Garden, Concubine Ji couldn't help but say to Concubine Yuan: "Okay, what are you doing mentioning the emperor's eldest grandson?" Don't you think there are enough in the palace? ”

"I don't say it, you think she doesn't want to?" Concubine Yuan smiled and said, "You wait and see, she will find a way to take Ping Kun back to the palace." Huh! If you have time, you should worry about your son. When the prince got married, he urged them to have a child earlier. The queen is unwilling to be lonely and wants to stir up trouble. ”

Sure enough, after they left, the queen in the Chiyun Palace began to think about how to take Xie Pingkun back to the palace and raise her justifiably. If the son is not successful, can't he support the grandson? If...... What about the prince who has never had children? What is impossible in this palace? Having made up her mind, the queen said:

"Kang Tai, you go and send a message to the second princess, let her go to the imperial mausoleum to see in person, send some food and clothing to Ji'er, and stay there to take care of it for a while. Kun'er was sent to the palace to live temporarily, he is the eldest grandson of the emperor, and it is not an exaggeration to live with the emperor's grandmother. ”

Shen Shunhua in the courtyard of the Shen Mansion listened to Kang Taichuan's words, and couldn't help but say sadly and angrily: "Lord Kang, haven't you heard that the second prince has done something in the imperial mausoleum?" If I go over, will he let me take good care of him? Why should I be humiliated by myself! ”

Kang Tai sighed: "Since it is the queen's mother, it is not easy for the official to disobey, so he will take the emperor and grandson away first." Now the crown prince has been deposed and punished for guarding the imperial mausoleum, but he is still the second prince, and you are the second princess. It is only natural for you to go to the imperial tomb to take care of him......"

Shen Shunhua stayed there for a moment, looking at her less than six-year-old son who was being held by Kang Tai, she burst into tears. The reality she had been unwilling to face finally slapped her in the face mercilessly.

Shen Congxi rushed over when he heard the news, and he was so angry that he slammed the table, but he couldn't change this reality. I had to help the eldest sister pack her luggage, load a carriage with food and clothing supplies, and let her take it to the imperial tomb.

Shen An was not at ease, so he asked Shen Congxi to accompany the eldest sister.
