756, the prince
As soon as Zheng Wanfeng's marriage was settled, Master Zheng San was about to finalize Zheng Wanli's marriage, when the emperor, who had not been in the dynasty for a long time, suddenly ordered the people to suspend the marriage leave, and to choose a side concubine for King Qing from among the women of the family of the right age.
Receiving this will, the people next to him are not enough, last year by the palace to teach the grandmother of those people suddenly felt a little bad, that grandmother is only afraid in the name of teaching to secretly investigate the noble daughter of the family! The emperor may have already saved the idea of giving King Qing a concubine, but he didn't know the character of the noble girls of each family, so he gave each family a teaching to learn Mama, that is to say, the people who were given a teaching to Mama are within the scope of the emperor's consideration.
The people who were given to teach Mama Xi are all people who are very important in the court, and let the concubine of such a family be the side concubine of King Qing, who is almost "notorious", is quite a bit of a slut.
But no matter how disgusted the families are, the holy decree has been issued, and no one can afford to resist the crime, no matter how reluctant they are, they can only hope that the emperor will not take a fancy to his daughter in the end, but some people take this as an opportunity.
The emperor's preference for King Qing is obvious to the world, but the concubine of King Qing was set by the Queen Mother, and now the emperor has delayed the marriage date of King Qing and Miss Huang Jiasi, but instead chose a side concubine for King Qing, maybe the emperor did not fancy Miss Huang Si, and wanted to choose a good match for King Qing, although it is a side concubine, but one day, King Qing meets the water dragon, conforms to the mandate of heaven, and ascends to the position of the prince, which is a great glory, after all, it is the current situation, this possibility is very great.
What kind of thoughts do others have, the Zheng family has no mind to care, the more the emperor favors King Qing, the more unfavorable it is to the queen, the more vulnerable the queen is, the more the Zheng family will be oppressed, and now this situation is obviously extremely unfavorable to the Zheng family.
And the queen didn't expect the emperor to suddenly have such a move, and it was planned for a long time, even the Zheng family was within the scope of the emperor's consideration, the emperor was determined to support King Qing, the emperor had no patience to wait for the next prince to appear, and he didn't have the patience to see if he could grow up, whether he could become a talent, there are too many unknown factors in this, the emperor has experienced two disappointments, he doesn't want to have a third, fourth, or even more times, since he already has a ready-made son, why should he go far?
Although the emperor knew that King Qing was useless, he had no choice, he only had this one son, and the only thing he could do was to assist the only capable minister, and the best way to let those capable ministers serve King Qing loyally was to let their daughters become King Qing's concubines.
The emperor is very thoughtful about King Qing, so even if the emperor does not make King Qing the prince, but everything arranged for King Qing is no different from the prince, and King Qing is even more proud of this, although the emperor is confined to King Qing's mansion, he can't go out, but others go in, and the guests in King Qing's mansion are endless, singing and singing every night, and there is a hustle and bustle.
The emperor's will made the queen completely panicked, and hurriedly summoned Xu Shu, Xu Shu knew that the queen was asking for medicinal incense, so she had to take the medicinal incense that had been made in the past few days into the palace.
But this incense is just an ordinary spice, the last time I entered the palace, Xu Shu met the Empress Dowager Fu, and the Empress Dowager Fu was obviously going to Xu Shu, but she didn't have any communication with Xu Shu, but directly challenged King Qing in front of Xu Shu, Xu Shu understood that she no longer needed medicine, it was about to end, and it was finally over.
"This fragrant ......" once again got the sustenance that had given her incomparable hope, and the queen was not as excited as she imagined, "It's too late!" The holy will has been decided, and the palace has no power to return to heaven! ”
"Niang Niang has done her best!" In order to give birth to a prince, the queen did work hard.
"Hongu doesn't want anything anymore!" The queen shook her head tiredly, put down the incense box casually, and no longer told Mama Yuan to put it away carefully as before.
"Since the concubine had a miscarriage, the emperor has never come to the palace again, and the palace knows that the emperor is blaming the palace! He doesn't blame King Qing for intimidating Xiang Concubine with the corpse of a vicious dog, he doesn't blame Xiang Concubine for not having a fetus in the dormitory, but he blames the palace for not protecting Xiang Concubine's fetus! The queen smiled with great irony, she wanted to keep Li Ying'er's stomach more than anyone else, but the more she longed for it, the easier it was to lose.
Anger is the emperor's favorite thing to do, he is reluctant to blame King Qing as the culprit, so he is angry The queen who has nothing to do with this matter, but has something to do with the concubine, who makes the queen the lord of the six palaces, has the responsibility to take care of all the concubines in the harem, and the emperor knows that even if he blames the queen, he does not dare to refute him, and the emperor has taken all the queen's dedication and patience for granted.
"Niangniang, Xiang Concubine Niangniang's miscarriage is the fault of the courtier, if the courtier didn't give the medicine to the mother......
"It's none of your business! How dare you refuse the request of this palace? And you've already told this palace that that incense shouldn't be used too much! At this moment, the queen suddenly became extraordinarily clear, "It's just that this palace insists on going her own way and can't listen to what you say, which has led to disappointment one after another, so today's result is the fault of this palace!" ”
Today, the queen's attitude suddenly changed dramatically, Xu Shu didn't know if the queen was stimulated by something, or if she had another purpose, so she could only be cautious and cautious, lest she say the wrong half a word.
"Anyway, there is still a princess in this palace, not for nothing!" The queen's lonely face finally revealed a trace of comfort, when she knew that it was hopeless to ask the prince, there was a princess who was better than the emptiness under her knees, and it was better to talk than nothing!
"Her Royal Highness the princess Yuxue is cute, listening to Mama Yuan, she can already be called 'Queen Mother'!" Xu Shu diverted the topic at the right time.
"This palace can give birth to a princess, it's all your credit, this palace has said before, this palace will definitely reward you after giving birth to the prince, now although the prince is hopeless, but the palace promised you a reward will not be less, what do you want!" The queen suddenly looked defeated, "Taking advantage of the fact that the palace is still the queen, and she still has some power, there are still people who will listen to what she says!" When the mountains and rivers are exhausted, you ask the palace for a reward, but I'm afraid that the palace will break its promise! ”
"There will not be a day when the mountains and rivers will be exhausted!" Xu Shu said, "No matter who the prince is, you will be the queen mother!" ”
The queen only thought that Xu Shu was comforting her, shook her head and smiled, and was about to speak, when she suddenly heard someone outside.
"The emperor has arrived!"
