Chapter 554: Harvest

Empress Xu knew that if King Han was allowed to successfully withstand the Qingzhou disaster, she was afraid that his prestige and popularity would go further.

At that time, the martial arts and martial arts have made achievements. Now those courtiers have already proposed to make him a concubine, what should they do if they want to make him a prince at that time?

After all, her position as queen is a bit of a rhetoric.

Even if Concubine Xu Xian is not angry, Min Bai is really impeccable.

If he hadn't insisted on marrying a beautiful girl from a civilian background, but obeyed the emperor's wishes and married Xie Changping, it would have been impossible to say that the current crown prince would have fallen into his hands.

But seeing that the emperor is so fond of Sister Hong now, far surpassing all the princes and princesses, it really makes Queen Xu frightened.

After thinking about it for a while, she ordered someone to go to the emperor.

said that in order to celebrate the happy rain in Qingzhou, she would take the concubines in the palace to burn incense and bathe and bow to the ancestors. A small palace banquet will be held to celebrate and invite the emperor to come to admire his face.

When Emperor Yan Cheng heard this, he was really in a good mood and immediately agreed.

Empress Xu's eyes narrowed slightly, and she quietly ordered the palace people to prepare something. Then he took the concubines and went to the palace temple to do a sacrificial ceremony in a dignified manner. When it was dark, a night banquet was held in her palace.

Because the disaster has not passed, the banquet is not extravagant, but it is just to choose seasonal fresh vegetables and make some light and refreshing dishes.

Singing and dancing don't need to be slings, but to choose those young and talented little palace concubines, anyway, they are bent on competing for favor and want to perform in front of the emperor, just give them a chance to come out and perform.

Emperor Yan Cheng was busy with state affairs for a day, and he was really tired. came to see that Queen Xu had made proper arrangements, which was very useful, and took the initiative to toast her with a glass of wine.

"The queen has been in charge of palace affairs all these years, and she has really suffered a lot of grievances. Although I don't say it on weekdays, I keep it in my heart. Go back and choose a good husband for Qinghe, and Jie'er choose a good daughter-in-law, and the queen can enjoy Qingfu with peace of mind. ”

If you want to say that Emperor Yan Cheng said this, he said it sincerely and sincerely, and Empress Xu was not unmoved when she heard it. But the last sentence "enjoy Qingfu" made her heart churn and churn again.

What does the emperor mean by this?

Does she want to let go of the rights of the Sixth House and hand it over to others?

To whom is that?

Even if she sets up her own son and Min Jie becomes the emperor, she is a serious queen mother!

Who would dare to wrest power from her? Neither can the Queen.

Empress Xu was displeased in her heart, and her face was still respectful and virtuous, "The emperor is right." When the children are older, won't we be able to enjoy the blessings? Especially His Royal Highness the King of Han, who is so capable, he should really be rewarded. ”

In her words, there were three points of temptation in her heart.

Who knew that Emperor Yan Cheng heard this, but immediately continued, "He is already the king of Han, the first prince in the court, how else can he be rewarded?" Reward again, do you want him to move into the Chunhua Palace? ”

Chunhua Palace, on the east side of the palace, has always been the residence of the prince.

After Emperor Yan Cheng was succeeded by the first emperor, a family of three lived there.

Queen Xu didn't expect to be tempted by the emperor, and almost lost her temper, so she calmed down and smiled reluctantly, "These things, the emperor is the master, how can you allow the concubines to leave their beaks?" Some time ago, the Western Regions paid tribute to the wine, which was very sweet, would the emperor like to taste it? ”

She quickly changed the topic and ordered someone to add wine to the food, which was very courteous.

Emperor Yan Cheng took a deep look at her, lowered his phoenix eyes, and hid his disappointment.

For this wife, he can't say that he likes it very much, but he does have some affection.

He still remembers the first things about supporting each other and overcoming difficulties together. But obviously, Queen Xu wants more than that.

Could it be that people's hearts are really bottomless?

The emperor sighed in his heart, and inevitably drank a few more glasses.

Queen Xu naturally didn't dare to poison the wine, but today's wine seemed to be a little bigger.

Although the mouth is sweet, it is full of stamina.

Emperor Yan Cheng only drank a small pot, and then he felt lightheaded and drunk.

Seeing this, Empress Xu hurriedly ordered the two young palace concubines to help the emperor go back to rest.

Emperor Yan Cheng frowned and wanted to push them away, but the drunken people didn't have much strength, but they still let people hold them up.

Li Dahai hurriedly stepped forward and smiled, "Queen Mother, let the slaves and maids wait for the emperor to go back to the palace to rest, so as not to be tired of all the mothers." ”

Empress Xu's eyes sharpened, "Mr. Li is laughing at this, the emperor is drunk, how can there be no one to take care of him at night?" As a concubine, it is her duty to serve the emperor, how dare you be a tired word? ”

Li Dahai couldn't, he was anxious, just hoping that Emperor Yan Cheng would say a word, but he was so drunk that he couldn't tell the truth.

At this time, Concubine Zhang Shu stood up and said with a warm smile, "What the queen mother said is true, it's just that the new sisters are young and inevitably inexperienced, so it's better to let the concubines serve the emperor." Your Majesty, you don't dislike your concubines, do you? ”

Now that Concubine Xu Xian is gone, she is the first person under Queen Xu.

If Queen Xu doesn't want to take action in person and anger the emperor, she wants to serve, and no one dares to rob it.

And although Emperor Yan Cheng was drunk, he was still clear in his heart. couldn't speak, but her body fell to Concubine Zhang Shu's side.

Seeing this, Li Dahai hurriedly supported the emperor and retired with Concubine Zhang Shu.

The emperor is gone, and there is no need for the palace banquet to continue.

Not to mention that Queen Xu sent away the little palace concubines who were full of joy but were disappointed, just waiting for the end of the song to disperse, and she couldn't help but be angry when she was close to the palace maids.

"What a pity, that jar of good wine! The queen finally arranged such a game, but she made a mess for Concubine Shu. Next time, I want to invite the emperor to a banquet, but I'm afraid it won't be so easy. ”

"No, it's not all for nothing."

Queen Xu's beautiful eyes revealed a strange look.

Thinking back to the neckline that the emperor inadvertently exposed when he was pulling......

She turned her head and called a few internal officials, stared at them for several circles, and after the people left, she muttered, "I see, is this so?" ”

The palace maids didn't know what she was talking about, and Queen Xu didn't want to tell them. Just instructed, Ming'er quietly notified the family and summoned Fu Xihua.

The next day, Fu Xihua entered the palace and unexpectedly heard a big secret, which shocked her back and oozed a cold sweat.

When the news was brought back, Taishi Xu was also taken aback, "Is this true?" ”

Fu Xihua still couldn't come back to her senses, swallowed her saliva, and her voice was extremely low, "The queen mother said, nine times out of ten!" ”

Xu Taishi calmed down and laughed proudly, "God help me!" God help me, Xu Jiafei Huang Tengda! You go and tell the queen to act boldly. On this Mid-Autumn Festival, we are going to decide this matter! ”

Seeing that their father and daughter were so determined, Fu Xihua was just as excited. Thinking of the upcoming glory and wealth, she was eager to make meritorious contributions, and she had an extra idea.

"There's one more person to guard against."

"Who?"

"Lord Changping!"
