Sheng Hong had already prepared in his heart, and these rumors were in his ears, but he was not angry.

Of course, the mood is not very good.

For two days in a row, Sheng Hong was a little depressed. didn't show it in front of people, and only when he was in front of Xie Mingxi did he show some anger.

"Mingxi, being the emperor is really a chore."

Sheng Hong wrinkled his brows and sighed sullenly: "Although I have some selfish intentions in the matter of cutting down the feudal domain, it is more for the stability of the Great Qi and the people. This is not afraid of rumors, not afraid of a good reputation for rejoicing in the army, and taking the initiative to send troops to level the domain. ”

"The Divine Guard was defeated, with heavy casualties. It was all because the King of Jiangxia secretly colluded with the King of Hejing to send private troops. Moreover, the king of Jiangxia stirred up trouble among the vassal kings, instigated and instigated, and his sins were unforgivable. ”

"If you don't punish the king of Jiangxia severely, how can you suppress those vassal kings who are about to move? How could they be so neat to hand over more than 100,000 private soldiers? ”

"Those who say that I am ruthless behind my back, have you ever thought about how many battles Daqi will fight and how many soldiers and civilians will die once these hundreds of thousands of private soldiers raise the flag and rebel?"

Xie Mingxi quietly listened to Sheng Hong's whining and spitting bitterness.

Being an emperor is never easy.

Especially if you want to be a promising son of heaven, it is even more difficult.

Throughout the history books, there are very few people who can really be praised as Ming Jun among the emperors of all dynasties. It's all because Mingjun is embarrassed!

After Sheng Hong's mood calmed down a little, Xie Mingxi softly comforted: "There are inevitably some fools who chew their tongues behind their backs. However, among the courtiers and officials and the royal family, there are many people with bright eyes and hearts. They will stand by your side. ”

Sheng Hong, you are not alone.

Behind you, there are unwavering followers. At your side, there is me.

Xie Mingxi's eyes were firm and gentle.

Sheng Hong looked at her for a moment, and the depression in his heart was quickly calmed down. Stretched out his hand to hug Xie Mingxi and rested his head on her neck: "Mingxi, it's good to have you by my side." ”

Xie Mingxi smiled lightly, stretched out his fingers, and stroked Sheng Hong's handsome face. Then, bow your head and give him a gentle kiss on the corner of the mouth.

……

There is no shortage of new things in the capital.

The matter of King Jiangxia being sentenced to death has been exaggerated for more than half a month, and the rumors have gradually subsided. Soon, it was replaced by another novelty.

Princess An gave birth to a dragon and phoenix fetus in one fell swoop.

King An was overjoyed and put on a flowing water banquet on the full moon day of a pair of children. The emperor and queen all have generous rewards, and the concubines in the palace also have generous rewards.

Concubine Duan, who has not been out of the harem for many years, also came to King An's Mansion on this day, and after seeing her grandchildren with her own eyes, her eyes were red with excitement and joy. said to Princess An: "Good daughter-in-law, you have made a great contribution." ”

Princess An did a good job in confinement, her face was ruddy, white and fat, and she smiled shyly when she heard the words: "The mother concubine is so praised, and the daughter-in-law is ashamed." ”

"Deserved, deserved." Concubine Duan personally picked up her grandson, and the more she looked at it, the more she loved it: "All my life is a dragon and phoenix twins, and I have both children and daughters." What a blessing this is. ”

This is the first among the daughters-in-law of the heavenly family.

Don't talk about others, just say Queen Xie. After giving birth to Aluo, there has been no good news for so many years. There are no children in the middle palace, and the Son of Heaven has no heirs. Even if the emperor and queen are still young, they are not yet thirty. It's enough to worry people. Now the whole country is concerned about the war of the Ping Domain, and when the matter of the Ping Domain is over, there will definitely be courtiers who will play and ask the Son of Heaven to open the harem.

Actually, these things have nothing to do with the current Concubine Duan. However, being in the harem and having nothing to do all day long, it is inevitable to pay more attention.

is still her daughter-in-law's belly fighting, and there are two in her life.

Concubine Duan thought about it, and then had some regrets: "If both of them are sons, like Li Yu and Li Qin, it would be better." ”

Princess Ann: "......"

Princess An suppressed the urge to roll her eyes, smiled good-naturedly, and hugged her white and lovely daughter: "My daughter is smart and cute, intimate and filial, and it's also very good." ”

Concubine Duan nodded reluctantly, glanced at her grandson, and smiled happily: "It's better to have a son after all." ”

King An didn't know when he arrived at the door, and he happened to listen to Concubine Duan's words in his ears, and he was suddenly unhappy: "What is the mother concubine talking about?" As long as it's my child, my son and daughter are fine. ”

Concubine Duan was not so tactful and subtle towards her son: "No matter how good a daughter is, she will marry someone else's family as a daughter-in-law when she grows up." Only sons can inherit the incense and support their parents. ”

"The Xie family has produced a Queen Xie, and the Lian family has produced a Lian general. But in this world, how many Queen Xie and how many generals can there be? In the final analysis, women always have to live dependent on men. ”

"No matter how good a daughter is, she is not as good as her son. You wait and see, Queen Xie has never been pregnant, and no matter how much the emperor favors the middle palace, he must accept the palace concubine. ”

It was inconvenient to gossip in the palace, but when she arrived at King An's mansion, Concubine Duan finally had no scruples and broke her mouth.

King An glanced at Concubine Duan, who was talking nonsense, and reminded coldly: "In front of the royal brother and sister-in-law, don't be excited, and say bald." Don't blame your son for not reminding you, the imperial brother categorically can't allow anyone to say a word about the imperial sister-in-law. ”

Sheng Hong is obedient to Xie Mingxi, and the degree of protection for his wife is staggering.

Concubine Duan pouted: "Don't worry!" I just don't talk nonsense. ”

She's not stupid enough to be that far.

……

In front of Xie Mingxi, Concubine Duan really didn't dare to babble.

However, Concubine Duan, who got a pair of grandchildren, couldn't help but show off. simply went to Hanxiang Palace and boasted to Concubine Mei. The grandson who has just completed the moon is almost praised to the sky.

Concubine Mei listened with envy.

Concubine Mei does not fight for the power of the palace, nor does she seek to provoke trouble, and spends her days leisurely every day, which can be called comfortable and comfortable. The only heart problem is that Sheng Hong has no heirs so far.

Concubine Mei and Concubine Duan were both made concubines because they gave birth to princes, and they were favored by the emperor for a short time. In this regard, Concubine Mei and Concubine Duan have exactly the same idea.

The heir is the most important thing, no matter how good the daughter is, she can't match the son.

Xie Mingxi is very good, and this one alone is enough to make Concubine Mei, who is her mother-in-law, dissatisfied.

Concubine Mei couldn't help but sigh lightly.

Concubine Duan knew it, but asked knowingly: "It's so dignified, why is Sister Mei sighing?" ”

Concubine Mei would not be stupid enough to say that her daughter-in-law was not in front of Concubine Duan, so she casually perfunctory.

On the second day, when Xie Mingxi came to Hanxiang Palace to ask for peace, Concubine Mei pretended to smile casually and asked: "The Queen Mother's filial piety has passed for nearly two years!" ”

Xie Mingxi's eyes flashed slightly, and he answered yes with a faint smile.

Concubine Mei's next sentence really came: "Ah Luo is already eleven years old, and in two months, she will be twelve years old." It's time for you to add a younger brother to Arlo. ”
