Chapter 521: Mental Illness
The queen wants to hold a grand flower-viewing banquet in the imperial garden in the palace, and the queen also invites the female dependents of the three or more members of the court to enter the palace to participate.
Everyone who heard the news couldn't help but be excited!!
None of their tricks have yet to exert their strength, why did the mother relax first?
Oops! Anyway, it's good news for them!
There are still a few days before the palace banquet, but the families of those three-grade adults have fried up one by one!
Who to take with you? Who not to take? Who can get into the eyes of the emperor and the mother? Who combines talent and looks? Who will be able to bring the scenery to a family in the future?
People with few daughters have no choice but to hurry up and ask for grandma, and the number of people in this daughter's family is actually worried about this!!
What to do? I think I'll take them all with me! The more people there are, the better the chance of being selected, isn't it? What's more, the harem is so empty, if you choose a concubine, how can you only choose one or two?
And the palace's reaction to this is not the same!
The queen mother twisted her hand with the Buddha beads and paused, and said, "The emperor wants to choose a concubine?" β
"Yes! Listening to the chief eunuch of Kunning Palace, this idea was proposed by the queen mother. β
Empress Dowager Jiang squinted thoughtfully, and muttered rather puzzled, "What does she want to do?" β
With the deep relationship between the two of them, this thing sounds fake.
"Queen Mother, do you want to help choose one?"
Empress Dowager Jiang chuckled lightly and said, "Do you really want to choose a concubine for the emperor when you become the queen?" You guys! The idea is still too simple! β
The little palace maid was surprised, "Isn't it for the queen to hold such a big flower-viewing banquet to choose a concubine?" β
Empress Dowager Jiang smiled slightly and said, "Then the mourning family asked you, which of you heard her say that this flower-viewing banquet was held for the emperor to choose a concubine?" β
"Huh?"
The little palace maid is stuck, isn't this all obvious? The flower viewing banquet invites officials and daughters above the third grade, and only those above the third grade are eligible to enter the palace as concubines!
Empress Dowager Jiang looked at the reaction of the little palace maid and shook her head slightly, and ordered: "Do what you have to do, don't get involved in this matter!" β
Driven by interests, there are few people who change their minds and seek some benefits from it, heh! The emperor and the queen are so shrewd, but no one should think that they are wronged!
Empress Dowager Jiang ignored the matter, while Empress Dowager Liu (formerly Concubine Hui), who was the emperor's biological mother, was calmer, and she didn't even call Chu Peijin over to ask about it.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
In the imperial study, the imperial physician shook his head after checking the emperor's pulse, and said, "Your Majesty, there is no problem with your body at all, and you are very healthy!" β
Jing Yan frowned, and he said with some confusion: "Then why hasn't it been so long...... Good news? β
Imperial Physician Wang touched his beard and thought about it, and said, "It's really hard to say this now!" The minister only went to ask Niangniang for peace a few days ago, and there is nothing wrong with Niangniang's body. β
Hearing him say this, Jing Yan's doubts in his heart were even worse, "How can this be?" β
This is simply beyond the scope of normal medicine, and it is really a bit tricky!
Although he doesn't care if they really can't have children, what he cares about is what his daughter-in-law thinks!
Imperial Physician Wang thought for a while, and suddenly said, "Your Majesty, why don't you ask your mother-in-law to come and have a look?" β
Jing Yan's heart moved, "You mean to say-"
Imperial Physician Wang nodded slightly and said, "Putting aside the physical problems, the rest that can be explained can only be heart disease!" β
As soon as the word 'heart disease' was mentioned, Jing Yan suddenly remembered Chu Peijin's previous life, could it be said? ?
The Imperial Physician Wang calmly held a large pot of tribute tea rewarded by the emperor and went home happily!
Jing Yan sat in the imperial study for a long time, and finally wrote a letter to the queen mother of South Vietnam, that is, his mother-in-law!
He hid this letter from the queen and sent it out quickly.
Just after all this, King Kang entered the palace to ask for a meeting, and Jing Yan simply summoned him in the imperial study.
"Your Majesty, Ministerβ"
"Third Emperor Brother, come quickly, come and sit here!"
Jing Yan beckoned him to sit down in one of the cases below, and he was making tea and drinking it himself.
King Kang raised his eyebrows, walked over and sat down across from him.
"What? The king of a country still has to do it himself? What did those eunuchs eat and drink? β
Jing Yan glanced at the empty imperial study and smiled, and said: "Third Emperor Brother, sometimes this matter is interesting only when you do it yourself, if you let others do everything, won't you become a waste?" β
King Kang was stunned for a moment, pursed his lips, reached out and picked up a cup of tea, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it first, and then slowly took a sip.
Jing Yan looked at him, "How is it?" β
King Kang glanced at him, "The emperor's craftsmanship is good!" β
Jing Yan said with a smile: "It's not easy to get the praise of the third emperor brother!" β
King Kang's brows furrowed slightly, and his eyes glanced at Jing Yan with some complicated expressions.
If he were the emperor, would he be able to sit with him drinking tea and chatting without any guilt like the fourth emperor?
King Kang was stunned for a long time, feeling that he should not be able to do it.
Therefore, I am really not as good as the fourth!
As soon as he came to such a conclusion, King Kang sighed slightly and accepted his fate!
"Your Majesty, the minister wants to go to the border!"
Jing Yan was a little surprised, "The Third Emperor Brother doesn't want to stay in Kyoto?" β
"Yes, I don't want to. After experiencing the Dongling incident, the minister felt that Xishao's soldiers and horses were too weak, so the minister wanted to go to the border to train the soldiers and horses! β
If it were in the past, King Kang would never have said such a clear word, after all, even if he wanted to take charge of the military power of one side, he had to use extremely covert means to obtain it, otherwise it would not be good to be mistaken by the emperor for ambition!
But for some reason, in such an atmosphere, King Kang felt that there was no point in playing with those methods!
"Where do the Third Emperor Brothers want to go?"
King Kang was not surprised that Jing Yan still had a calm face when he heard his words, and he said: "Let's go to Fengyang, the queen mother over there has just occupied six cities, and the ground urgently needs to strengthen the troops, otherwise it may still be taken away by Dongling in the future!" β
Jing Yan thought for a while, nodded, and said, "This is no problem, but you need to discuss with the Ministry of War how to transfer troops after the court discussion." However, Brother Sanhuang, now that you don't have a concubine, who will take charge of the palace for you? It's better to wait for this flower-viewing banquet to choose a person you like and get married, and it's not too late to leave! β
Although there was a certain psychological construction in his heart, when the emperor happily agreed with his idea, the shock in King Kang's heart was still very strong!
He glanced at Jing Yan with complicated eyes and asked, "Are you...... Why do you trust me so much? β
There is another sentence he didn't say, that is: Aren't you afraid that I have trained my soldiers and horses to raise troops to rebel?
Jing Yan sighed and said, "Brother Third Emperor, let's not say that we are all sons of the First Emperor, and we have the same blood in our bones!" Let's just say what is the purpose of being an emperor? Isn't it to make our great country in Xishao more and more prosperous and stronger? The Third Emperor Brother is willing to help me share my worries now, it's too late for me to be happy, why don't I trust you? β
King Kang's eyes were stunned, and his heart was as complicated as turning over the river and the sea!
Before leaving, Jing Yan suddenly said: "Brother Three Emperors, don't forget to enter the palace to choose a daughter-in-law for the flower viewing banquet!" β
King Kang twitched the corner of his mouth: ......
Sure enough, this cherry blossom viewing party is weird!
