The spring is brilliant, the plants and trees in the imperial garden are blooming, and all kinds of seasonal flowers are in full bloom, which is very beautiful. This is the time of year when the scenery of the Imperial Garden is at its best.

As far as the eye can see, the entire Imperial Garden is as beautiful as a picture.

In the pavilion, the extremely beautiful palace concubine had a satisfied smile on her face, admiring the spring light in front of her.

She is about in her early thirties, because she is well-maintained, but she can't really tell her age, I just think she is extremely beautiful and extravagant and introverted.

She was dressed in a light pink palace dress embroidered with beautiful kites and flowers. This palace style looks plain, but in fact it is decorated with fine pearls and tortoiseshells, walking up, shining pearls in the daylight, very luxurious.

This palace concubine is the mother concubine of the third prince Xiao Ningyu, Concubine De.

Virtuous and virtuous, the concubine is second only to the queen, and the mother of the third prince Xiao Ningyu is actually a little higher than the mother concubine of the fifth prince Xiao Ningcheng.

Concubine De's surname is Li, and she is a member of the Li family of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The Li family is also a famous family, but it is not the top family.

Concubine Li is famous for her beauty, and she has been favored for more than 20 years after entering the palace, if it were not for the emperor and Empress Chen's very affectionate relationship, Empress Chen is virtuous and talented. I'm afraid that the Li family may be involved in this queen's position.

Concubine Li drank tea leisurely and was in a good mood.

Because the news she had heard these days told her that she had finally looked forward to something she had been waiting for for a long time.

After a while, someone from the palace hurriedly came to report that the third prince Xiao Ning was coming.

Concubine Li's eyes lit up, and she became more and more comfortable: "Let my son come over." ”

After a while, Xiao Ningyu walked through the twists and turns of the nine-curved bridge under the guidance of the palace people and arrived in the pavilion. Xiao Ningyu, please say hello. Concubine Li hurriedly helped him up.

She looked at Xiao Ningyu's face that resembled herself, and her face was filled with satisfaction and pride.

This is her son, who is better than blue. Her future glory and wealth depend on him.

Concubine Li waved her hand, and the palace maids and attendants around her retreated one after another and stayed outside the pavilion. They knew that Concubine De and the third prince had important things to discuss, and the content of the discussion was not something they were qualified to listen to.

Xiao Ning said: "Mother, according to what my mother said, my son went to invite Mr. Borong back to Beijing. Mr. Borong agreed. ”

A smile appeared on Concubine Li's face: "Not bad." Mr. Borong is the Empress's mentor. If you can personally persuade her to return to Beijing, the queen will be very happy. ”

Xiao Ningyu's eyes flashed slightly, and said, "Mother, what do you want to please that woman at this time?" Now the prince is a waste in the hot spring palace. ……”

Concubine Li glanced at him and gestured. Xiao Ning froze, but he didn't think so.

Concubine Li said slowly: "Changing the prince is a sure thing. Unless the emperor doesn't want this country. Otherwise, he would never let the crown prince succeed to the throne. So we have to be careful every step we take, and we can't make mistakes. ”

Xiao Ningyu's eyes were deep and cold: "But Erchen feels that his father prefers the fifth child." ”

Concubine Li said: "That's nature. Because of the love of the house and the black. Besides, the virtuous concubine is the best at settling with the queen, and the queen is the best at speculating about the holy will. But we are not entirely hopeless. ”

Xiao Ningyu's face sank: "Everything is arranged by the concubine." ”

Concubine Li nodded with satisfaction: "Since the assassination of the five princes, the emperor, including the central government, has paid great attention to the princes' every move. You are naturally the top priority, so during this time, if you don't do anything, your father will rest assured. ”

Xiao Ningyu sneered in his eyes: "The fifth child was assassinated, and the son is the most suspicious." Naturally, the father should pay more attention to his sons. ”

Concubine Li's face was also like sinking water: "This palace knows that my son is wronged, but those who achieve great things are not informal." These things are trivial, just endure it. The top priority is how to change your father's opinion of you. So what this palace tells you, you are all convergent. ”

Xiao Ningyu nodded.

Naturally, he knew what his mother was worried about. He likes to hunt and kill, and treats his subordinates either by beating or scolding, and he has also had a disregard for people's lives. The courtiers complained a lot about him.

These can be endured, anyway, when he has achieved a big thing, he can do whatever he wants, and no one will stop it at that time, and no one will dare to stop it.

Concubine Li carefully instructed some things to pay attention to. When she finished her order, she remembered something.

She said: "I heard earlier that you fell in love with the eldest lady of the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion? Is there such a thing? ”

Xiao Ningyu frowned slightly, and said, "Don't worry, concubine, your son won't see her again these days." I just thought she was interesting, so I just looked at her twice. ”

When Concubine Li heard this, she frowned her beautiful embroidered eyebrows: "How is this girl?" ”

Xiao Ningyu didn't understand what his mother was asking for. He then said: "Her name is Sheng Rujin, the eldest lady of the Zuo Xiangfu, and she is a concubine." A close disciple of Mr. Borong. It's young, but it's very beautiful, but it's ......."

He tried to find an adjective, and suddenly realized that none of the adjectives was quite right.

Sheng Rujin was condescending to himself, disdainful at first, arrogant and inviolable, and then, like countless women he had seen, he flocked to himself and was very flattering.

He has seen a lot of this kind of woman's tricks, and they are all the same means.

However, if Sheng Rujin is just an ordinary woman, he intuitively feels that it is wrong, but he can't find anything for him.

Concubine Li saw her son's sword eyebrows locked, and suddenly asked, "Is this Sheng Rujin really just a concubine?" Why did the concubine get Mr. Borong's appreciation? The concubine didn't? ”

Xiao Ning said: "Maybe it's because the concubine of the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion is young and can't make it." ”

Concubine Li thought for a while and shook her head and said, "No, this palace heard that the eldest lady of Zuo Xiangfu seems to be precocious, she is a goddess prodigy, and ......she enlightened early."

Xiao Ningyu said impatiently: "What's the use of the concubine saying this? A concubine, is it useful for us to do great things? ”

Concubine Li glanced at him: "Do you know how to make the emperor make up his mind to inherit the throne?" ”

Xiao Ningyu was stunned: "How to do it?" ”

Is there a secret? Why didn't you say it earlier?

Concubine Li's eyes were deep: "This palace thinks about it, the only thing that can make your father change his opinion of you is that the imperial concubine you marry is very good, and it is best to give birth to a son." The so-called look at the three generations. You have an heir, your father can at least see it, so that the position of prince belongs to you. ”

Xiao Ningyu was deeply surprised.

To be honest, the Great Zhou Dynasty was very traditional and conservative in terms of succession to the throne. The throne is passed on only to the son-in-law. and if the firstborn son is not married, the brothers under him cannot be married.

This is why several princes are in their twenties, although some have wives and concubines, but the position of concubine has never been married.

In the final analysis, the reason is that the prince is not married yet!

Right now......

Xiao Ningyu approached and stared into his mother Li's eyes: "What does the mother concubine mean...... The eldest lady of the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion is the best candidate for the princess? ”
