As soon as Deng Ge Lao was taken away by Jin Linwei, Emperor Xingyuan asked about the burial of Empress Xin, and the supporting party secretly admired that the emperor would seize the opportunity, and the ministers who opposed it dared to be angry and did not dare to speak.

The emperor is using Deng Ge Lao to exert pressure!

But the emperor took this opportunity too well, especially for some people who didn't want to be dragged into the water because of Deng Gelao, compromising on the matter of burying Empress Xin, following the emperor's wishes, was an exchange between the monarch and the ministers that was not easy to put on the surface.

For example, if he would have suffered 100 boards because of Deng Ge's old case, and now he has performed better, he may only have to suffer 50 boards.

The next deliberations went smoothly, and the dust settled on Queen Xin's burial in the imperial mausoleum, and all kinds of details were finalized.

In fact, as Deng Ge Lao was taken away by Jin Linwei in the palace, many people had nothing to do with their faces, and their minds had already followed.

When the yamen outside the palace heard about this, their hearts were also fluctuating and panicked.

When a figure like Deng Ge Lao enters Jinlinwei, I am afraid that the officialdom will be shaken.

Emperor Xingyuan didn't think about the turmoil that was going to happen in the court for the time being, and when the discussion was over, he asked people to pass Xin Yu into the palace.

After waiting for a while, the chamberlain reported that the edict had arrived.

Emperor Xingyuan, who was anxious, immediately had his spirits.

A moment later, a young man in a plain robe walked in and bowed.

"Excuse me, give Xin a seat."

The chamberlain moved the small pestle over and placed it beside Xin Yu.

Xin Yu thanked him and sat down, waiting for Emperor Xingyuan to ask.

"From the other side?"

"Yes." After Xin Yu entered the city yesterday, he did not return to the residence given by Emperor Xingyuan, and stayed directly in the other garden.

For her, home is where her mother is.

Emperor Xingyuan looked deeply at the young man with a calm temperament, and sighed: "I just heard from He Zhen's envoy that you were almost bitten by a poisonous snake in the broken temple. ”

It's not an ordinary venomous snake, it's a highly venomous white snake!

As long as Emperor Xingyuan thought about the consequences of being bitten, he was afraid for a while, and he was surging with anger.

Xin Yu did not deny it: "I was almost bitten by a snake, and the poisonous snake had already climbed to Weichen's neck at that time, but fortunately, Lord He made a timely move to restrain it." ”

"I've long said that Qingxiao is reliable." Emperor Xingyuan smiled with joy and sighing.

It seems that Mu'er and He Qingxiao get along well, and now that He Qingxiao is doing things for him, he will be able to continue to use it for Mu'er in the future.

Well, you can't use people ruthlessly, and you should also give some benefits.

Emperor Xingyuan's mind moved, and he had an idea: When Xinxin's funeral is over, you can ask He Qingxiao about marrying a wife, Xuan'er's age is just right.

Xuan'er is the eldest princess Chen Xuan, the same age as Xin Yu, and is seventeen years old this year. In addition to her, there are two twin princesses in the palace, who are still young.

If Emperor Xingyuan's attitude towards his eldest son King Xiu was that King Xiu's mother and son directly caused the anger of Queen Xin when she ran away, then he was indifferent to his eldest daughter Chen Xuan. I don't like it, I don't hate it, and I don't pay attention to it.

Xin Yu nodded slightly and didn't say much.

She knows the truth of excess, especially in front of an emperor.

Emperor Xingyuan was more concerned about Xin Yu, and talked about the things discussed today: "The regulations for the funeral have been roughly decided, and I have asked the Qintian Supervisor to calculate the auspicious day, so that your mother can be buried as soon as possible." ”

Xin Yu was silent for a while and said: "Your Majesty, when the first mother enters the earth, Weichen wants to accompany her in the imperial tomb for a while." ”

Emperor Xingyuan was stunned for a moment, and his first reaction was to persuade Xin Yu to change his mind, but he swallowed the words when he came to his mouth.

The boy made it clear that he had a grudge in his heart and did not want to recognize him. What he has to do is to slowly ease the relationship between father and son, and refuse the child's request at every turn, so how can it be improved?

"I am very happy that you have this filial piety."

Hearing Emperor Xingyuan say this, Xin Yu's heart settled.

From Zhou Tong and Wang Peng who came forward directly, and then to Zhao Langzhong and Director Tong, and found Pei Shilang and Deng Gelao, it can be seen that this is a huge bureaucratic force. The huge interest relationship is involved, and it is specific to the individual, even if it comes to the status of Pei Shilang and Deng Gelao, they are just a chess piece after all. Without Pei Shilang and Deng Ge Lao, there will be more Pei Shilang and Deng Ge Lao. This is not a personal grudge, but what the mother wants to do touches the bottom line of the interests of this force.

And she, empty-handed, weak and weak, has tried her best to get to this point, and if she goes forward, she needs to rely on external forces. Folk prestige is one, and the importance of the people in front of you is even more important.

She wants to personally pick up her mother's coffin, to place more than 200 mountain bandits, and today she proposes to guard the emperor's mausoleum, which is to test her weight in this person's heart again and again, so as to facilitate her actions in the future.

The favor of emperors, in all dynasties, has always been a force to be reckoned with. Since she chose to stay in this whirlpool and fight against that force to the end, avenge her mother's family, and realize her mother's wishes, she will not be so high as to abandon this sword.

"In the case of your temple being injured by poisonous snakes, I will arrange for He Zhenfu to investigate well, and I will not tolerate those involved."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After Xin Yu left, Emperor Xingyuan pinched his eyebrows to relieve his fatigue, and left the palace to go to Concubine Li.

Concubine Li is the mother of Princess Xuan, and she has no sense of existence in the harem like Concubine An, the mother of Queen Xiu, no, she is a more silent existence than Concubine An. Although the harem of the previous dynasty knew that King Xiu was not favored by the emperor, after all, he was the eldest son of the emperor, and even if the opportunity was slim when the prince was undecided, there was such a chance that it would be developed. Now that King Qing has been deposed, the possibility of what if, in people's hearts, has been raised to one hundred and one.

And what about Li Concubine? Like Concubine An's concubines who were placed in Yiyuan back then, she was rejected by the emperor after Empress Xin left the palace. is not as good as An Concubine who gave birth to the eldest prince, nor can she compare with the concubines who filled the harem later to get some imperial favor.

Hearing that the emperor was coming, Concubine Li didn't even forget to react, and didn't kneel down in a hurry until the bright yellow figure appeared in front of her.

"Get up." Although he rarely came to Concubine Li, Emperor Xingyuan sat down very comfortably and picked up the tea carefully served by the palace maid.

Concubine Li stood up, cramped and didn't know what to say.

"Concubine Li also sits."

"Love concubine" is unspeakable, Emperor Xingyuan's title to the harem concubines is concise and clear, and they are all called titles.

Concubine Li sat down nervously, secretly guessing the purpose of Emperor Xingyuan's coming.

"Where's Xuan'er?"

Unlike the prince, who had to move out of the palace where his mother lived when he was older, and lived independently, the three princesses in the palace all lived with his mother.

Concubine Li immediately understood that the emperor wanted to see her daughter, so she hurriedly sent the palace maid to invite Princess Xuan over.

After a while, a slender girl hurried over.

"I've seen my father." Princess Xuan saluted in a proper manner, and her heart was even more nervous than Concubine Li.

"Get up and speak."

Emperor Xingyuan looked at his eldest daughter with drooping eyes and smiled slightly.
