The emperor had no choice, and the two of them discussed for a whole day, and finally decided to move the third prince and the fourth prince out of Changxin Palace and move to the "Huanxiu Villa" for a long time. According to Imperial Doctor Liang, the four princes just caught a cold from the north wind in the past two days, and it quickly turned into a serious lung infection. Such a child is weak in heart and lungs, not to mention minor illnesses and disasters, and there will be hardships in the future.

Compared with the four princes, the third prince is obviously not optimistic.

Huanxiu Villa is built on Mingxia Mountain on the south side of the palace - there is still a year during the Spring Festival, the emperor presented it to the Queen Mother as a New Year's gift.

The place is not as warm and moist as the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, but it is also quiet and pleasant, and the gardens in the mountains are full of plants, trees, flowers and birds. People who are physically weak live in quiet and beautiful places, which are the best for recuperation.

Because of this incident, the DPRK and China inevitably set off a small wave. Three years ago, the topic of the two twin princes having to leave the palace and go to Yangzhou to recuperate due to congenital deficiencies was talked about again.

The exhausted Empress Shangguan was hidden under the palace of Changxin Palace, and refused to see anyone for a few days. The emperor issued a holy decree one morning, and posted the emperor's list to convene the people, hoping to cure the two little princes. Concubine Jing and Lin Yuan were sent by the queen to inspect the account books, but this month's purchases, rewards, monthly rules, appointment and dismissal of female officials and other things were assigned to the three of them by the queen. For the sake of her two sons, the queen didn't want to care about anything else.

This incident made Lin Yuan feel stunned - although he had vaguely expected it to happen before, he didn't expect it to happen so soon, just half a month after Shangguan Li returned to the palace.

Is the fourth prince really sick? Those concubines who wanted to visit Changxin Palace were all turned away by the queen, saying that the four princes couldn't stand the wind and were even more afraid of noise.

There was a concubine who said very regretfully, "When I saw the two highnesses in the morning, they looked like they were well-behaved and clever, but they were so weak." Those who have seen the two little princes can't see that they have any congenital deficiencies, such as being extraordinarily thin and so on.

Lin Yuan didn't know what had been discussed between Shangguan Li and the emperor - the current situation was that after Shangguan Li was sealed, her children were sent elsewhere to recuperate.

In the days when the four princes recovered from their cough and suffered a thrilling recovery, she issued a decree to build an official road from Andingmen of the Forbidden Palace to Mingxia Mountain, so that she could take the queen's phoenix to and from the Forbidden Palace and Huanxiu Villa every day.

This road is more than fifteen miles long, not far, but definitely not close - if it is just to build the road, since it is the royal official road for the queen Feng Yuan to walk, then all the way to pave the road with bluestone slabs and Liuling stones, but it is not like a small road in the countryside at will. In this era, there is no asphalt and no bulldozers, and it is not easy to build a road.

The first phoenix order after the queen's canonization was easily seized by the courtiers and took advantage of the situation to attack and annihilate. Although building a road is not as expensive as building a palace, in the middle of the battle, any random action will be used to go online. What's more, in order to visit her children every day, the queen acted in spite of the tight and extravagant state treasury, which was unreasonable.

Several upright courtiers jointly begged the emperor to refute the empress's will. Tuoba Hong laughed at it and ignored it.

Shangguan Li was stubborn and did not listen to dissuasion. Construction of the road soon began.

The empress's insistence and the emperor's indifference gradually calmed down the restlessness of the harem courtiers, and those courtiers who played were taken by the prestige of the queen's father, the general of Shangzhu State, and did not dare to compete with the empress. In the end, the situation calmed down, and the name of Empress Shangguan as "unvirtuous" was rumored among the people.

No matter what the situation of the queen and the two princes is, for Lin Yuan, what this series of things brought to her was the queen's decentralization. She picked up a bargain and was able to continue to be in charge of affairs.

On the second day, she went to kowtow to the queen outside the Changxin Palace.

The queen sent the two princes away last night, and the four princes still had a high fever and were carefully protected by a group of imperial doctors, presumably the queen never slept well all night. Today, she was exempted from asking for peace again, and only let the concubines kowtow.

The concubines didn't dare to slack off, and they all helped the palace people to come over and kneel, which was a point. Only Li Fangyi had a headache yesterday and did not take leave.

Li Fangyi has been plotted by Lin Yuan since that year, and after taking an overdose of Cordyceps, her health has deteriorated. It is common to get sick twice in three days.

Her palace people came over to pay homage to Changxin Palace, and said to Concubine Jing, the head of the concubines. Concubine Jing, who took the lead in leading the concubines to kowtow to ask for peace, did not care, smiled tolerantly and let Li Fangyi rest, and instructed the inner hospital to prepare medicinal materials for her. Although Li Fangyi has not been as favored by Yu Ronghua in the past two years, she is also a person who often recruits waiters, Concubine Jing and her have never had any festivals, so this idea is naturally giving.

The palace maid then said to Concubine Jing: "Thank you for your thoughtfulness, and bother Niangniang to take a few more words in front of the queen, and when my little master is well, I will definitely make amends to the queen." ”

In the past few days since the queen returned to the palace, she has been very lenient with her concubines, and Shangguan's ruthless reputation has gradually disappeared in the hearts of concubines. Concubine Jing felt that the queen would not have trouble with Li Fangyi for this little thing, so she smiled and said, "Don't worry!" The queen is a kind and beautiful person, and it is ...... not to be counted."

"Concubine Jing is so powerful, I don't know when she became the master of this palace!" A sudden scolding came from behind her, Concubine Jing turned around in shock, and knelt down with a puff and said, "Queen Mother!" ”

Shangguan Li wore a moon-white embroidered butterfly pattern skirt, with thin clothing, only a heavy black fox skin covered with a heavy black fox skin to keep out the cold, and a white hosta was also obliquely inserted in the bun, obviously in a hurry. Her cheeks were a little pale, and her eyes were blue without fat powder, and although her complexion was haggard, the majesty on her face was undiminished. She walked to the front of everyone with the hand of the waiter, and the cold light in her eyes forced the rest of the concubines to kneel together, and they didn't dare to speak.

"I heard that Li Fangyi is sick, Concubine Jing is really lenient and considerate, and she also said that this palace is not counting?" Shangguan Li's raised eyebrows and stared at the kneeling Concubine Jing: "Concubine Jing, this is what you just said, right?" ”

Concubine Jing was full of fear, and kowtowed: "Niangniang forgives her sins!" The concubine just saw that Li Fangyi was sick and pitiful, and she thought that the mother would be forgiving......"

"Concubine Jing has always been good at speculating on her intentions." Shangguan Li's voice was pale: "It's strange that the emperor also likes your gentleness!" ”

Speculating on Shangyi is a small sin, and Concubine Jing couldn't get off the stage when she heard this, her face was flushed, and she nervously said that she didn't dare to do so.

At this time, even Concubine Jing was lying on the ground begging for mercy, and the palace maid who came to deliver the message to Li Fangyi was already frightened, and she only cared about kowtowing. Shangguan Li wrung her eyebrows and looked at her twice, and said with disgust: "This palace has heard that Li Fangyi is restless before, and she is used to pretending to be sick and pitiful to coax people!" It looks really good today, and even the morning and dusk of Changxin Palace dare to be contemptuous, isn't it that he doesn't take this palace in his eyes! After saying that, he raised his hand and ordered: "Spread the decree, Li Fangyi despises the Middle Palace, descends to Liangdi, and thinks about it behind closed doors!" ”

Glancing at Wei Mizhuang again: "Concubine Jing is a little kinder, in the past, when the palace was not there, you were also conniving everywhere in charge of the palace." It's just that you don't know how to control people, but you still break the rules in words, Concubine Jing, you are also an old man who has been in the palace for more than ten years, if you don't speak properly all day long in the future, it's not like ...... words."

Shangguan Li sneered again and again: "I'll punish you for twenty years, it's a lesson." ”

When she finished disposing of it, she looked tired and turned away with a cold face.

The news of Concubine Jing's palm mouth and He's demotion soon spread throughout the court.

How many years ago was Wei Mizhuang's favorite concubine, and later became Concubine Jing's power, when was she insulted by the public? She was afraid of Shangguan Li before, but she never thought that this arrogant woman would punish her on the spot. At dusk on this day, she was still sobbing in the Hehuan Hall, and when she reached out to knock over the prepared dinner to the ground, Tuoba Hong came in with her feet, took her hand and said:

"How can Mi'er be wronged like this!"

Wei Mizhuang grabbed his hand and threw it on his shoulder, crying and crying out that his face hurt. Tuoba Hong said: "I know everything today, Mi'er, don't cry ......"

"Your Majesty!" Wei Mizhuang sobbed, becoming more and more pitiful: "The concubine really doesn't know what she has done wrong, and she will be punished by the queen." The concubine was a little soft-hearted, but she said, 'The queen should not be counted', just as the queen mother is the world, kind and generous, where did she think that the mother really cares about the Chen family...... You have to call the shots for your concubines! ”

Tuoba Hong had no choice but to coax her: "Lili's temperament you know, when she first entered the palace as a teenager, she didn't like restraint and acted presumptuous...... She has a childish heart, so you should take care of it more! ”

Wei Mizhuang was still crying vigorously at first, but when he heard this, his throat was blocked, and his body shrank slightly-it turned out that in the emperor's heart, no matter how cruel and vicious the Shangguan clan was, it was just a child's heart...... I have to take care of myself!

Wait, wait! No matter what grievances he has suffered, whether he is justified or not, he has to treat the queen?

was indignant in his heart, but he didn't dare to express his grievances, so he pulled the emperor to half-push and half-hug the couch. A few days ago, the emperor reprimanded her for the dispute after the establishment, saying that she couldn't manage the harem well, and she was not favored recently, so how dare she be presumptuous at will. Today, the emperor chose to come to see her instead of going to Changxin Palace, which is already a great face.

It's just that in addition to being warm, she asked carefully: "The emperor should go and see He Liangdi." The concubine felt that she was also wronged, and the queen said that she was pretending to be sick, but He's headache was not a day or two, so it shouldn't be to deceive the queen. The queen mother was furious and casually took her place...... The concubine is a soft-hearted person, and the queen is so strict, it is inevitable that it will be too much......"
