After all, if you want her to confront Xiao Tianying, the current concubine from the third rank is a little bad.

Qingyun Palace.

Shangguan Youyue said bitterly to Li Qinglu: "My mother, the emperor must want you to fight with the queen now?"

Li Qinglu was a little hesitant, she was not stupid, and she could also think of Dong Heng's attitude towards Xiao Tianying.

But because of her personality, she still can't do it if she is asked to fight with Xiao Tianying, even if she actually has resentment in her heart.

Xiu's eyebrows furrowed, and she said helplessly: "But, I won't!"

Shangguan Youyue also sighed a little helplessly, in the face of this kind of master who has many hole cards in her hands, but doesn't know how to play, she can only be helpless.

But if the other party is not this kind of character, I'm afraid I won't do my best to assist, it's just so wonderful.

·····

In the imperial study, Dong Heng is still quietly handling government affairs, but the affairs of the harem naturally can't be hidden from him.

For Xiao Tianying, his thoughts are just as Feng Ling and others guessed, let's fight in the harem, and the province will cause trouble in the previous dynasty.

However, there are only a few people in the entire harem who can fight with Xiao Tianying.

Originally, the most advantageous was Li Qinglu, but unfortunately...

Dong Heng knows very well that she will not fight, while she is a little angry, she is also faintly comforted, and she is the original Li Qinglu.

Day 3.

The reward that caused the harem to shake was issued.

Feng Ling was promoted from a second-grade concubine.

Dudu was also promoted to a second-grade concubine.

There are also a few others who have been promoted from third-grade concubines to third-grade concubines.

For a time, all kinds of envy, jealousy and hatred filled the harem.

All the concubines and even the officials of the previous dynasty looked at Empress Xiao Tianying to see how she reacted, after all, she had just entered the palace for two or three days, and Dong Heng had promoted the grades of several concubines, which was indeed easy to make people angry.

However, to the surprise of many people, Xiao Tianying's performance was very calm, as if she was not angry at all.

But there are also those who know in their hearts that this is just the calm before the storm.

Although Dong Heng has been paying attention to the affairs of the harem, his focus is still on the entire Hengguo and his own strength after all.

I have to say that marrying the Great Yan Dynasty does have many benefits.

The pace of domestic stabilization is more than half as fast.

One hundred and fifty-six divine cities within the territory, quickly stabilized.

Seeing that the twenty-year period was getting closer and closer, his heart was becoming more and more solemn, and at the same time, he was constantly making various preparations.

Daheng is strengthening at a speed that is visible to the naked eye, little by little.

In the blink of an eye, another eight years have passed.

Eight years is insignificant for anyone in the fourth realm or above.

This is especially true for a dynasty with one hundred and fifty-six divine cities.

But seven years is also precious for Daheng.

The country has really stabilized, and the powerhouses of the sixth realm have reached twenty-four, excluding Dong Heng, Zhu Qingcheng, and Xiao Tianying.

Among them, there are six civilian officials, seven in the Protectorate, and eight in the military.

The remaining three are naturally Li Yuanba, Zheng He, and Lian.

The two major armies led by Yue Fei and Bai Qi have expanded to about 12 million.

Bai Qi has also reached the sixth level of the military soul.

In addition, it is the personal strength of Dong Heng and others that has increased.

Eight years is enough for their strength to rise by one or two levels.

The Imperial Study.

Dong Heng is still dealing with government affairs that seem to be never finished.

It wasn't until late evening that he stopped writing.

"The Queen Mother's side has arrived?" said an indifferent voice.

Zheng He immediately replied: "Back to the emperor, it's all here." ”

Today is the birthday of the Queen Mother Li Ruohua, although there is no big deal, but the concubines of the harem and some people close to the royal family also gathered in Haihua Palace.

As for the title of Queen Mother, a few days after Daheng was promoted to the imperial dynasty, Dong Heng officially announced the titles of Emperor and Queen Mother of Dong Hai and his wife.

But their lives haven't changed, they're the same as ever.

Dong Heng quieted down, as if he was thinking about something, for a long time, his eyes were certain, "It is rumored that Yue Fei and Bai Qi led the First and Second Legions to secretly enter Beijing. ”

In an instant, Zheng He's heart was shocked, he knew that something big was coming.

However, he still replied without any abnormality: "Obey." ”

"Go ahead and do it now. ”

"Yes. Zheng He replied without any thoughts and went down.

"You go down first. Dong Heng said to the lotus that didn't seem to exist.

Lian didn't seem to hear it, but her body went out obediently.

Suddenly, there was no one else in the imperial study.

"What's wrong?" Dong Heng's eyebrows suddenly became solemn.

"If you go back to the emperor, everything has already been arranged. A figure appeared below, saluting respectfully.

If there is an old man who follows Dong Heng, he will definitely be able to recognize that this person grew up with Dong Heng, formerly known as Dong Zhong, and later changed his name to Li Zhong from the palace in order to enter the palace.

Although his strength is not strong, everyone who knows it knows it, such as Zheng He, who is Dong Heng's absolute confidant.

"Hmm. Answering the voice, Dong Heng fell into thought again, and after a while, he stood up and said indifferently: "How to do it, you should be clear, go down." ”

"Yes. Li Zhong was a little worried, but after serving Dong Heng for so many years, he knew that what he should do most was to be obedient.

Li Zhong disappeared into the darkness again, and Dong Heng also headed towards Haihua Palace.

Haihua Palace is located at the junction of the middle palace and the harem, and it is generally quiet here, even on days such as Dong Hai's couple's birthday in previous years, it is also very quiet, because they don't do it at all.

However, this year, Dong Heng specially issued an order to let Dong Shan and other close relatives of the royal family, as well as harem concubines, celebrate Li Ruohua's birthday.

When Dong Heng arrived with Zheng He and Lian, all the people who should have arrived here had already arrived.

There are bursts of laughter and laughter, mixed with beautiful music.

"The emperor has arrived~~!"

Under a somewhat shrill voice, all kinds of voices suddenly stopped.

"Concubines (ministers, slaves) see the emperor. "In the Haihua Palace, except for Dong Hai and his wife, everyone is courteous.

Dong Heng's expression was much softer than usual, and he stretched out his hand to help: "Get up, today's birthday banquet of the Queen Mother, no need to be polite." ”

"Your Majesty, Emperor. ”

Everyone didn't notice anything, thinking that Dong Heng should be in a very good mood today.

However, Li Qinglu subconsciously felt that something was wrong.

She couldn't say it, and there was no reason, but looking at her husband who had been with her for so many years, she just felt that something was wrong with the other party.

suppressed the feeling in his heart, and after Dong Heng sat down, he sat down with everyone.

At the top, Dong Heng, Xiao Tianying, Dong Hai, and Li Ruohua sat down at two tables.

On the left below are Li Qinglu and other concubines, and on the right are Dong Wuling, Dong Shan and other royal people.
