"I hope that the beauty will also give birth to a prince or princess for me." Emperor Ming closed his eyes and said slowly.

Qin Luofei remembered that he had said this to himself in his previous life, but he had lost himself.

"Your Majesty, the concubines are retiring."

Qin Luofei put on his clothes and left the imperial study with Xiao Linzi.

After a long time, Emperor Ming slowly opened his eyes and returned to his usual coldness.

Soon, the concubines in the palace all knew that the emperor had favored Qin Cairen, who had always been cold, and Leng Guifei almost didn't smash everything in her palace after knowing it.

Du Chengcheng rewarded Qin Luofei with a lot of ginseng to replenish his body.

For several days in a row, the emperor did not enter the harem again, and I heard that the war ahead was even more unsatisfactory. The Yue Kingdom has already conquered the outermost city.

The Queen Mother was ill, and Du Chengcheng took his two personal maids, Jinlan and Jinmei, to the Queen Mother's palace.

The Queen Mother has always loved Lord Xi, but now that the life and death of Lord Xi are uncertain, the Queen Mother has been hit one after another, and she has long been unable to support it.

Du Chengcheng has been dressed up carefully today, the golden phoenix robe is embroidered with a pattern of flowers, the hair is towering, the snake hair bun is made, and the hairpin on the sideburns is a dragon and phoenix hairpin that only the queen can wear.

She, the queen, is embarrassed today, the emperor is not favored, and the queen has become a decoration in the palace.

When I arrived at the Queen Mother's bedroom, I saw that the palace was deserted, and only the Queen Mother was half-lying on the couch.

Du Qingcheng waved away the palace maid beside him and walked to the queen mother's side.

The Queen Mother slowly opened her eyes and looked at Du Qingcheng.

"You're finally willing to come to the mourning house."

Seeing that the Queen Mother was displeased, Du Tingcheng hurriedly smiled and said: "Auntie, Allure has long wanted to come to visit her aunt, but she is afraid of disturbing her aunt's rest." ”

The Queen Mother snorted coldly, sat up, and Du Qingcheng hurriedly took the chrysanthemum pillow for the Queen Mother to lean on.

The Queen Mother said: "I thought you still wanted to be your queen wholeheartedly." ”

Du Chengcheng was a little embarrassed.

"Auntie, where are you talking?"

The Queen Mother glanced at Du Tingcheng coldly and said, "You still know that you are the daughter of the Du family, and you are not afraid of being blinded by something." ”

"Auntie, Allure won't." Du Qingcheng was very afraid of the Queen Mother's eyes, as if he wanted to see her through.

"The child in Concubine Mo's womb can't be kept, you have to get rid of her for the mourning family."

Although the Empress Dowager has rarely left the palace since she returned to the palace, she has always been a threat to the Empress Dowager, and besides, she has a son who holds military power.

Du Tingcheng nodded and said, "My niece knows, she will definitely not let Concubine Mo give birth to the child." ”

"I heard that the emperor wants to drive the expedition in person, but it's true." The queen mother has always disliked her son, and she has always loved her second and seventh emperors the most.

Du Qingcheng nodded and said coldly: "The emperor has such a plan, but he has not discussed it with the courtiers yet. ”

"If he wants to go, let him go." The Queen Mother said coldly.

"Auntie." Du Chengcheng didn't expect that the queen mother hated the emperor so much, and would agree to the emperor's royal drive, what if the emperor had any mistakes?

"Mourning family, I advise you not to put all your thoughts on the emperor, it's time for you to clean up the concubines in the palace, take advantage of the emperor's absence, and get rid of those who can be removed as soon as possible."

The queen mother can't see her niece, and she can't be on the stage at all.

Du Tingcheng nodded.

She didn't want to deal with Concubine Leng and Concubine Shu, but after all, she entered the palace late, and she had to be careful in everything.

"Especially that raccoon beauty, before the emperor noticed, get rid of her first."

The Queen Mother is old and doesn't want to do it herself, but Du Chengcheng is too soft-handed, and she can't even get rid of a concubine, so she has to use some means.

Du Chengcheng came out of the Queen Mother's palace, but met the second princess.

The second princess has been living on the west side of the queen mother's bedroom, and she has not seen her for many days, and her complexion has improved, and she can't see that she is imprisoned at all.

"See the Queen." The second princess saw Du Tingcheng looking at her, and hurriedly went up to greet her.

"No courtesy." Du Tingcheng looked at the second princess, and almost achieved her position with this woman, but unfortunately, she was delusional in this life.

"My aunt is alone inside, and the second princess will go in! Spend time with your aunt. ”

Du Tingcheng turned around and led his palace people away, and the second princess looked at the golden phoenix robe on Du Tingcheng's body, and a trace of gloom flashed in her eyes.

Du Qingcheng went to the Queen Mother, and soon the little palace maid and Qin Luofei talked about it.

Money is easy to use, Qin Luofei gradually used money to buy a lot of low-level palace maids and eunuchs.

On weekdays, these palace maids and eunuchs were ignored, and Qin Luofei didn't use any strength to let them take refuge in the palace.

In the past, Qin Luofei hoped that the second prince would overthrow the emperor, but now she has changed her mind.

The second prince is afraid that he has the support of the queen mother, and he has always dreamed of ascending the throne as the emperor. The emperor's personal expedition will probably be his best chance, and she will let his dream be shattered.

On the wide hall, Emperor Ming was dressed in a dragon robe on it, and Xiao Linzi stood next to him.

Emperor Ming's eyes swept coldly, and His Royal Highness stood among the ministers.

"I, I'm going to go on a personal expedition, what do you think?"

As soon as Emperor Ming's words fell, the ministers were stunned.

"The emperor must not." Prime Minister Mo Cheng was the first to stand up.

Now the situation in the court is complicated, if the emperor is to drive the expedition in person, there will be a lot of changes, although his son holds the military power, but still can't reach the Du family.

"The minister also agrees with Prime Minister Mo's opinion, the emperor cannot go out in person." Prime Minister Du Cheng also stood up, and other ministers also objected.

"I've made up my mind. Aiqing don't need to persuade me anymore. This time, I will drive the expedition in person, Prime Minister Du, you will accompany me to go with you! ”

When Prime Minister Mo heard Emperor Ming's words, his heart immediately fell into his stomach, as long as this old guy is gone, the rest of the Du family will not be afraid.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Although Prime Minister Du Cheng was shocked, he reacted quickly.

"The Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of War should coordinate the allocation of military salaries, grain and grass, and they must make up enough for 100,000 quintals as soon as possible, and there must be no mistakes." Emperor Ming gave an order, and the officials and soldiers dared not obey.

"Retreat." Emperor Ming turned around and left, leaving only the ministers staring at each other.

The first emperor was the emperor who was assassinated, and now the emperor wants to drive again, how can he not worry those ministers.

A few days later, it was the fifteenth, and according to the regulations, the concubines had to ask the queen mother and the queen to say goodbye, and the queen mother was unwell and had been exempted from the concubines' courtesy.

"Miss, you said that if the emperor is a royal driver, what should you do?" Xi Ju is even more anxious than her concubine.

Qin Luofei faced the bronze mirror, picked up the Ruyi hairpin on the dresser and inserted it next to the sideburns, and then put a double-strand golden pear flower inlaid with gem-inlaid broken jade shake on the sideburns. Looking at the woman in the mirror, she had a bit of a beautiful color, and then stood up with satisfaction.

Xi Ju took out a chrysanthemum-colored shirt from the wardrobe and put it on for Qin Luofei, and wrapped her slender waist with a ribbon.

"So many concubines are not afraid, what is your young lady afraid of?"

Xi Ju wanted to say that those concubines were pregnant, but Miss, you still don't have anything?

"Miss, you have to take advantage of the emperor's presence to seduce the emperor more." Xi Ju is very worried about Miss.

Qin Luofei smiled faintly, stretched out his hand and pinched Xi Ju's cheek, and said, "You girl just likes to think more, don't worry!" After the emperor sets out on the expedition, the hard days of those pregnant concubines are coming, don't you want your young lady to die quickly? ”

Xi Ju was stunned.

The emperor is not here, Du Tingcheng and the Queen Mother should also do it! She was happy to see the jokes.

But this joke is destined to be a little hard for her to watch.

Qin Luofei took Xi Ju out of the room, where did she go to Luo Ziyan first?

Before Luo Ziyan entered the palace, she also brought two personal maidservants from home, and took care of her solidly.

Qin Luofei lifted the curtain and saw that Luo Ziyan was tidying up, it seemed that she was going to pay homage to the queen, Qin Luofei's mind was slightly sunk, and she couldn't tell the reason.

Luo Ziyan saw her and said with a smile: "Sister, why did you come here so early?" ”

"I saw that my sister was unwell, so I came to take a look, sister, you are much better, what are you doing with your clothes?" Qin Luofei pretended not to know and walked to Luo Ziyan's side.

Luo Ziyan smeared rouge on her face to cover the paleness on her face, and said, "Today is the fifteenth, no matter how unwell I am, I still have to pay homage to the queen." ”

"Sister, you just have to rest, and it's not a big deal to visit the queen." Qin Luofei took Luo Ziyan's hand and walked it to the edge of the bed.

The palace maid who was waiting for Luo Ziyan next to her smiled and said: "I also persuaded my young lady like this, but she didn't listen, Qin Cairen, you should persuade our young lady well, how can she go out like this." ”

Qin Luofei held Luo Ziyan's hand, felt very cold, and insisted on helping Luo Ziyan to get on the bed and lie down, and covered her with a quilt before saying: "Today, my sister listens to my sister, don't go, how can your body see the wind." ”

"Mingyue, you go out first." Luo Ziyan said to the palace maid who was waiting beside her. Qin Luofei saw that Luo Ziyan had something to say to herself, and she also glanced at Xi Ju.

"Sister." Qin Luofei held Luo Ziyan's hand and saw that her body trembled slightly.

Luo Ziyan half-raised her eyes, she had only been in the palace for half a year, but she looked a lot haggard, and she was no longer the carefree character she used to be.

"Sister, I know you have a little medical skills, you tell me the truth, what's wrong with my body?"

Qin Luofei didn't want to hide it from Luo Ziyan, but now that she is hiding it, what should she do if such a thing happens in the future? It's good to have a heart.

"Sister, you didn't come to the monthly letter, but had a miscarriage."

Although Luo Ziyan guessed it, she was still stunned, and then her eyes turned red.

Qin Luofei grabbed Luo Ziyan's fingers vigorously, and said in a low voice: "Sister, the imperial doctor you see on weekdays is probably the person from Leng Guifei and the queen, sister, be careful, it's good to change the imperial doctor again." You are pregnant, and you don't know it, but those people already know in advance, and they also attack your sister, making you unaware of it, and trying to damage your body, so that you can never get pregnant again. ”

"After all, I was careless." Luo Ziyan also grew up in a big family, and she has seen a lot of dirty things, how can she not know, it's just that she has a temperament, not such a scheming woman.
