Chapter Forty-Nine: The East Palace Welcomes the Newcomers

In the face of Li Hao's fierce pursuit, Cui Ming was also annoyed, and began to think about how to make Li Hao stop.

Tang Zhi was originally quietly waiting on the side, not ready to get involved in the affairs of this father and son.

As a result, he was still named by Cui Ming: "Tang Zhi, don't stop talking, and give me ideas."

At this time, Tang Zhi couldn't help but answer, but he knew very well that he couldn't offend Li Hao.

Therefore, with a roll of his eyes, he had an idea: "If you want His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to stop coming to His Majesty, you have to have something else to divert your attention, it can be small but it must be cumbersome.

It just so happens that there is a saying among the people that it is difficult for a clean official to cut off family affairs, and the slave maid had heard that the queen had approached His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and asked about the emperor's heir."

Cui Ming fell into thought when he heard this, it is true that it is difficult for a Qing official to decide on housework, but Li Hao can have any housework to break.

Although it is barely a housework in the palace, it is impossible for Cui Ming to let Li Hao get involved.

And in the East Palace, there are only two people in total, Li Hao and Zhang Han, plus Zhang Han's intelligence and general knowledge, there are not so many things.

Then after thinking about the emperor's heir, Cui Ming immediately came to inspiration.

Now there is a concubine in the East Palace, it is indeed stopped, so what if there are a few more women.

After there are many harems, Cui Ming can empathize with the troubles of being jealous, and it just so happens that Li Hao will try it this time.

It's just that if you want to give Li Hao a concubine, you must get Wang Yi's approval.

But Cui Ming felt that this should not be difficult, after all, Li Hao, as the current prince and the emperor in the future, it is not suitable to have only one wife.

Don't mention anything else, just the issue of an heir is very troublesome, the emperor must still have more children and more blessings, Wang Yi will not object to this matter.

Thinking of this, Cui Ming couldn't help laughing and said, "Tang Zhi, you are still clever, drive to Zhengyang Palace, let's go to accompany the queen to lunch."

Tang Zhi knew that Cui Ming understood what he meant, so he immediately smiled and arranged for Luan to drive.

In addition, it is also necessary to send someone to inform the queen and let Zhengyang Palace prepare to welcome it.

Wang Yi got the news here, and it was a little strange at first, because since Li Hao was punished by Cui Ming last time and thought about it behind closed doors, Cui Ming had not come to Zhengyang Palace in order to avoid trouble.

Even if Li Hao was canceled later, he kept it up.

So he asked people to inquire about Cui Ming's intention to come over this time.

It just so happened that Tang Zhi also wanted to maintain a relationship with Wang Yi, after all, as Cui Ming's personal eunuch leader, he would definitely not be able to directly contact Li Hao.

Otherwise, even if he didn't want to do anything, he would incur Cui Ming's dissatisfaction and suspicion.

Therefore, if he wants to continue to maintain his status in the era after Cui Ming, he can only contact Wang Yi.

So the person who came told the truth and quietly told Wang Yi about choosing a side concubine and Liangdi for Li Hao.

Wang Yi also expressed his acceptance of Tang Zhi's overture, so he gave some reward and asked him to bring back a message to Tang Zhi to express his gratitude.

After waiting for someone to pass by, Wang Yi asked people to start arranging for the driver, and he went back to make up for makeup, just thinking about this matter.

First of all, on the issue of Li Hao's concubine, Wang Yi really has no idea of objecting.

After all, in this regard, in modern society, wives restrict their husbands more, and mothers restrict their sons less, not to mention this ancient society where concubines are legal.

Moreover, this is also an opportunity to ease Cui Ming and Li Hao's father and son, if he adds obstacles to this matter, it will only make things more difficult.

And although Wang Yi believes that the reason why Li Hao and Zhang Han have no heirs is because Li Hao has been away for a long time, who dares to say that it is just this problem.

In this case, multiple opportunities are also good, even if the eldest son is not out of Zhang Han's belly.

It's a big deal that she can come forward by herself and arrange the child to be raised in front of Zhang Han, anyway, there are many ways to eradicate hidden dangers.

But although the result is like this, Wang Yi still wants to think more about Zhang Han, and Wang Yi is still very much about his daughter-in-law

valued, I don't want her to suffer too many grievances.

After Cui Ming arrived at Zhengyang Palace, he first greeted Wang Yi for a while, and only after lunch did he start to cut to the chase.

"Hao'er is not young now, but she has no heirs under her knees, and there is some gossip in the court and the people, so I want to give Hao'er a few more concubines, I don't know what you think."

After thinking about it just now, Wang Yi already had a general idea, so he replied: "After Hao'er got married, most of the time was spent fighting outside, and the crown princess was not by her side for a long time, so the fate of this heir will be a little later."

At this point, Wang Yi deliberately paused, just to let Cui Ming understand the meaning of his words and set a personality for this matter, so as not to get rumors blowing on Zhang Han's head from time to time.

Then he continued, echoing Cui Ming's meaning: "But if you can take in a few more concubines and make the royal family more prosperous, it is naturally an excellent thing, but I don't know if Your Majesty has any ideas about the candidate."

Cui Ming was also very happy to see that Wang Yi agreed so easily, and said with a smile: "That's what I said, the marriage of children naturally has to be decided by you, you first pick and choose which of the famous and noble girls in this capital are suitable, and then let Hao'er decide for herself."

Wang Yi really wanted to take the initiative, so he decisively agreed.

Seeing that the matter was said so quickly, Cui Ming was also very happy, and stayed in Zhengyang Palace that night.

As soon as Cui Ming left the next day, Wang Yi sent someone to summon Zhang Han in, and said, "There is one thing that requires you to be mentally prepared, yesterday Your Majesty came to the palace and talked to the palace about taking a concubine for the prince.

Of course, it's not that you're bad, but you should also understand that it is impossible for the East Palace to have only one concubine, who has not been in charge before, purely because the prince has been outside."

When Zhang Han first heard this, he was naturally a little disappointed in his heart, after all, his husband finally came back, and he had to share it with others all of a sudden.

But she also understood that this was the norm, so she quickly restrained her emotions.

replied: "The queen mother, the concubines understand, everything is decided by the queen mother, and the concubines are willing to obey the arrangement, but they don't know which families are going to get married."

Wang Yi said: "Your Majesty did not designate a candidate, but let the palace be the master, and the meaning of the palace will not be found in the country this time."

Zhang Han was taken aback for a moment and asked, "Don't you choose from Su Guo?"

Wang Yi explained: "Yes, don't choose from Suguo, after all, the East Palace will still have you to take care of it in the future, and if you really let the family of Suguo intervene in it, I'm afraid that it will be a lot of trouble."

The idea of this palace is to select one from the old land of Qi, and then from the countries of An, Wu, Chu, and Yan, to see if there are suitable famous and noble women who can be included in the East Palace.

This will not be easy to shake your position, and it will also buy you time again, and it is better for the eldest son to be the eldest son, so as not to give birth to some unnecessary troubles in the future."
