The news of Xiahou Jing's pregnancy made everyone in the palace overjoyed for a while, and this good news diluted the gloom of the imperial court's holy decree.

Xiao Xinge came out happily and said to Concubine Chun: "Mother, Jing'er is finally pregnant, you want to be a grandmother!"

"Oh, you kid, you can't be light, what should you do if you make a noise to the princess?" Concubine Chun blamed, but the smile on her face couldn't be stopped.

I'm finally going to be a grandmother, and I'm satisfied.

Xiao Xinge lowered his voice and said: "The mother concubine won't be leaving, if you leave, when the child is born, the court is letting the king's son send him to the capital, what should I do?"

Mentioning this, Concubine Chun restrained the smile on her face again, sighed, and thought that she couldn't embarrass Ge'er, and she could go to the capital alone, but now that the princess is pregnant, and the child is being held by the court after she leaves, wouldn't it be fatal!

"Let's wait for this matter, what matters now is your princess's body, and the palace is still waiting to hug the child, as for the matter of entering Beijing, it will be delayed. ”

Seeing that Concubine Chun threw this matter behind, Xiao Xinge was happy in his heart, this child came at such a good time, so maybe the mother concubine would not go to the capital, but how should the court reply?

Forget it, let the second emperor brother use his brains about these things, Xiao Xinge sent a letter to Xiao Xinrong, telling everything that happened in the mansion.

After Xiao Xinrong and the others read the letter, Xiahoushuang sighed: "The second sister has finally come to the bitter end, and after having her own children, she will be able to straighten her waist in the house." ”

"The princess's words are bad, I think the fifth brother is desperate for the second lady, and this strength is not inferior to the king to the princess. ”

After praising Xiao Xinge, he didn't forget to bring himself, Xiahou Shuang had a smile on his face, and scolded angrily: "It's so thick-skinned!"

The frolic between the two has diluted a lot of the gloom of these days, but the reality is always to be faced.

"Brother Chun, what should we do next?" asked Xiahou Shuang nervously.

"Since the two imperial brothers agree to stand on our side, then I have to show this trust, I will repair a letter to accuse the court, if the court still blames it, then we will bear it!"

Now that this matter is a foregone conclusion, Xiao Xinrong is shouldering everyone's net worth and life behind him, and he can't retreat but can only move forward!

That's all, Xiahou Shuang nodded.

Xiao Xinrong's letter soon reached the hands of Emperor Jing Yuan, and the imperial study room was full of courtiers, and Emperor Jing Yuan handed over the letter in his hand: "Everyone take a look!"

Xiao Xinrong's letter was impassioned, first stating the pain of separation of flesh and blood, showing loyalty to the imperial court, and finally saying that he would also ask the imperial court for a few years of grace, and wait for the younger prince to enter the palace to meet the Empress Dowager and Her Majesty.

Chen Rui immediately said: "Your Majesty, Prince Alcohol already has selfish intentions, this is obviously disobeying the holy decree!"

"Wechen thinks that Prince Alcohol's letter is very affectionate, and it seems that it is not really going against his will, and His Majesty can forgive it for some time. ”

Someone put forward a different meaning, Chen Rui saw that it was Zhang Shangshu, this Zhang Shangshu had a close relationship with Xiahou Mansion in the past, Chen Rui wanted to take him under the knife, but he saw through the scheme several times, so he was lucky to stay in the court, but he didn't expect to dare to blatantly ruin his own good deeds and favor Prince Alcohol.

Chen Rui was suddenly dissatisfied in his heart, and said contemptuously: "Zhang Shangshu is really capable, but with a few pages, I believe in Prince Alcohol's sophistry, if Your Majesty forgives him for some time, let him gradually become full-fledged, break away from the constraints of the imperial court, and be uncontrolled!"

Zhang Shangshu suddenly felt a wave of anger rise in his heart, this Chen Rui relied on the favor of His Majesty and the Empress Dowager, and brutalized Zhongliang everywhere, he had already seen himself unpleasantly, and today's words were the truth, I was afraid that he would do something!

Zhang Shangshu has been in power for many years, he is upright and honest, how can he be frightened by a little Chen Rui, glanced at Chen Rui with disdain and continued: "The old minister does not believe in Prince Alcohol by virtue of these few pieces of paper, but because Prince Alcohol has been born and died at the border for several years, and has made great contributions to the country to protect his family. ”

"As for what Lord Chen said about his full wings, Xia Guan doesn't know what this means, it is said that now Prince Alcohol's fiefdom has become rich and strong, but Prince Alcohol is dedicated to doing things for the people, and Shoucheng has contributed to the matter and sympathized with the people, it is with the existence of Prince Alcohol that Shoucheng will not suffer heavy losses, Lord Chen, has not received any news about these things?"

What Zhang Shangshu didn't see was that every time he said a word, the faces of Emperor Jingyuan and the Empress Dowager were gloomy, and the princes were driven to the fiefdom in order to win the hearts of the people in the court, and they were afraid that the young emperor's throne would be unstable.

Who knows that Prince Alcohol went to the fiefdom, opened the door of the fiefdom, and operated the fief in a good way, which is also a reason why Emperor Jingyuan decided to reduce the power in the hands of the princes this time, he was afraid that in this development, Prince Alcohol would get the hearts of the people and accumulate money, so his throne was not in danger!

Chen Rui was annoyed and angry by Zhang Shangshu's words, secretly glanced at the face of the person on the dragon chair, knew it in his heart, and snorted coldly and said: "Zhang Shangshu admires Prince Alcohol so much, is it because Prince Alcohol has placed you in the court?

"You...... You shameless...... This official is an official of the imperial court, how can he be humiliated by you!" Zhang Shangshu's face was flushed, and he said speechlessly: "What the prince has done is known to the world, where to use this official to respect, only you, a traitor, turn black and white upside down with your eyes open!"

"Look, before the official said anything, Zhang Shangshu was so excited, and said that he didn't respect it, tsk, who believes this!"

Chen Ruidu walked up to Zhang Shangshu and said: "I still don't respect Prince Alcohol, I see that you have already given up on the prince, just like a thief like you, if the prince rises up one day, you will definitely be the first to take refuge!"

"Your Majesty, the old minister doesn't have this heart, the old minister is loyal to the court, and I hope that Your Majesty will see it!" Zhang Shangshu wept bitterly and bowed to Emperor Jingyuan.

Emperor Jingyuan had a gloomy face and did not speak, Zhang Shangshu saw this situation, his heart sank hard, shook his head and said, "Doesn't Your Majesty believe that the old minister is loyal?"

"Loyalty, how do you make Your Majesty believe, I think you are just relying on your old age, making a lot of nonsense here, defending Prince Alcohol everywhere, Zhang Shangshu, you deserve to be punished for this!" Chen Rui had a trace of ruthlessness on his face.

"Your Majesty, open your eyes and look at the court today, traitors are in charge, brutalizing Zhongliang, and the old minister can only die to keep his innocence!" Zhang Shangshu said and slammed into the pillar on the side.
