The Queen Mother listened to the emperor's words of asking for merit and reward for Concubine De, and she was very angry, with the character of the Queen Mother, if she heard others say such things, she would not be able to suppress her anger, but now it is her biological son who is speaking to her, and it is the current emperor, the Queen Mother has to suppress her anger, she adjusted her mood, and said to the emperor in a gentle tone: " Concubine De does have a trick in medical skills, at that time, for the queen's illness, the imperial doctors of the hospital were helpless, but Concubine De was able to miraculously cure the queen's illness, this is indeed meritorious, Concubine De saved the queen's life, the royal family should not forget her kindness, the queen is a person with deep affection and righteousness, therefore, she will build a yì reward for Concubine De, the mourning family agrees with the queen's opinion, so, how does the emperor want to reward Concubine De?"

Seeing that the Empress Dowager was not only not angry, but spoke to him calmly, and expressed his agreement with the Empress's empress opinion, the Emperor was no longer timid, and he boldly said to the Empress Dowager: " The queen's body has just recovered, and she needs to have a long period of recuperation, she is still very weak now, her energy is limited, and she may not be able to assist the queen mother in managing the inner palace for the time being.

When the queen heard this, she was so angry that her heart almost jumped out, but she tried her best to suppress her anger, and said in a calm tone: "You go on, tell all your thoughts, the queen mother is listening." ”

The Emperor continued: "The Queen Mother knows that the position of the Imperial Concubine has been vacant for several years. It is best to bring up a concubine, the two concubines in the palace are not bad, one is the virtuous concubine Sun Xianglan, she is thoughtful, understanding, and very filial to the queen mother; made a great contribution. If He Zhihan can be promoted to the imperial concubine, there are at least two benefits, one is to let her accompany the queen. Continue to help the queen regain her health. and learn from the queen how to manage the harem, and second, let her assist the queen mother. Help the queen mother do some odd things, so that the queen mother will not be too tired because of too many things. Please allow the queen mother to approve the construction of the minister!"

When the queen mother heard this, another wave of anger surged up, she was speechless for a while, she thought: "I want to grab the position of the imperial concubine, is this the emperor's idea or He Zhihan's idea?" People who have this idea think very far and thoughtfully, let He Zhihan follow the queen and learn management experience from the queen, this is actually to squeeze the gentle and kind queen aside, so that He Zhihan can rush to the front desk to take charge of the management of the harem;

The words of the emperor pierced the sensitive nerves of the queen mother's desire for power, she couldn't bear it, and wanted to reprimand the emperor with her head and brain, but after decades of experience in harem battles, the queen mother had to hold back her anger, she hurriedly breathed and calmed her heart, and said to the emperor in a low voice: " The emperor thought it out very thoroughly, so that Concubine De was promoted to the imperial concubine, and she could help the queen do things while helping the queen treat her illness, and she could also be an assistant to the mourning family, so that Concubine De could gradually learn the experience of managing the harem, and for you and me, it was a very decent reward for the meritorious service, and at the same time, the emperor could often be with He Zhihan, who was promoted to the imperial concubine, and the mourning family had an imperial concubine to assist, and it would be much easier in the future。 ”

The emperor listened carefully to every word that the Empress Dowager said, he was confused by the Empress Dowager, he couldn't figure out whether the Empress Dowager was in favor of and supported his ideas, whether the emperor agreed with his words, and agreed with the emperor's construction, but it seemed that there were words in the words, which seemed to contain the meaning of ridiculing the emperor, and the emperor didn't know how to continue.

In fact, the queen mother knows his emperor very well, when he is not angry, the emperor's temper is very gentle, and he likes to listen to other people's advice, but when the emperor is provoked, he will become very tough, you don't let him do it, he wants to do it, at that time, the emperor will never compromise, although the queen mother is very annoyed that the emperor is asking for the position of imperial concubine for the concubine, but she knows that she can't immediately refute the emperor at this time, she must wait for the opportunity to dismiss his construction in a way that the emperor can accept.

So, the queen mother said: "Emperor, your thoughts and the queen mother are understood, but the matter of canonizing the imperial concubine is a major event in the harem, which will affect your relationship with the queen, concubines, etc., the queen mother can't be perverted to you now, let the queen mother think about it, and reply to you in two days, okay? If the emperor is willing, you might as well talk to the queen and the concubine first, see what they think, you had better convince them, so that they are willing to accept your decision, and then, you and the queen, The virtuous concubine can get along better, the queen mother once said to you before, the common people also understand the truth of 'family and everything is prosperous', you are the emperor, everything you do, you should take into account the family harmony of the royal family, and the career is prosperous. ”

The emperor said: "Thank you, the queen mother, the sons listen to you, and when the queen mother thinks about it, the sons will come to listen to the teachings of the queen mother!"

The emperor said goodbye to his mother and left the queen mother's bedroom, for the queen mother's true intentions, the emperor still has no bottom in his heart, he is anxious, he decided to listen to the queen mother's words, go to the queen and concubine to talk.

The emperor first arrived at the queen's dormitory, he avoided Concubine De, and told the queen that he had set up He Zhihan as the imperial concubine to the empress dowager, and the queen expressed her attitude very simply, she expressed her support for the emperor to set up Concubine De as the imperial concubine, but she had one condition, that is, she could not let He Zhihan take her place as the queen in the future, otherwise, she would join forces with the queen mother and try her best to entangle with the emperor, the emperor said that he would never let people take the queen's place, please rest assured.

The emperor went to Concubine Xian's bedroom again, and Concubine Xian Sun Xianglan saw that the emperor was coming. She was very happy and quickly knelt down to take the car.

"Concubine Xian, I haven't come to see you for a long time, are you doing?" the emperor asked.

"The emperor is busy with court affairs, and he has every opportunity, so naturally he has no spare time to come to the concubine's bedroom, and the concubine can understand that the emperor is here now, and the concubine is very happy. Concubine Xian said.

"I heard that you went to see the queen a few days ago, and it seems that you are quite concerned about her condition. I'm glad you did. The emperor said.

"What did the emperor say? The queen's sister is seriously ill. The concubine should naturally go to see her, the people in the palace are very concerned about her condition, and when the concubine went to see her, her condition had improved greatly. But. I don't know why. Not long ago, her condition suddenly worsened again, which is really worrying!" said Concubine Xian.

The emperor thought, "The empress's condition has improved very quickly, and she will soon be cured. It seems that this time Concubine Xian didn't know, so I had to tell her and let her know that the queen's body had basically recovered, otherwise, she would keep saying that the queen was seriously ill, which was unlucky for the queen. ”

The emperor said to Concubine Xian: "Concubine Xian, this time you are mistaken, the queen was seriously ill seven days ago, these days, the queen's condition has improved greatly, the body recovers quickly, in the rest for a while, the queen's body will be healed, thanks to Concubine De's careful treatment of the queen, otherwise, the queen's illness is not known to be good in what year and month, Concubine De's medical skills are much more clever than the imperial doctor of the hospital." ”

"Your Majesty, as far as the concubines know, the queen's condition is still very serious, and the concubines have been worried about the queen, but you said that the queen's body is about to recover, how did you get the news?" said Concubine Xian.

"I just went to see the queen, after leaving the queen's dormitory, I came directly to your dormitory, when I went to see the queen just now, the queen also got out of bed and knelt down to greet me, when I said goodbye to her, he sent me to the door of the bedroom, her body will soon heal, you can rest assured!" said the emperor.

Sun Xianglan thought: "Two days ago, Jiang Dexing, Shen Deyi, and the informants of the palace all sent news that the queen's condition had worsened and was about to die, but now the situation has changed so much, the queen's condition has become much better, the queen's body is almost healed, and the emperor even went to her bedroom to see her in person, what is going on? Is the previous news fake? Didn't Shen Deyi say that things are going well? Could it be that he is lying to the palace?"

Sun Xianglan heard that the queen's body was about to recover, the more she thought about it, the more angry she became, the more disappointed she became, originally, she thought that the queen's illness could not be cured, and Concubine De would also take responsibility for it, but now everything has changed, her plan has failed, she feels very depressed, of course, in front of the emperor, her thoughts cannot be revealed.

"Your Majesty, the queen's body is healing, this is a great thing, it's really 'Jiren has his own natural appearance', the queen is a very good person, the concubine has long said that my sister will have a good reward, now it's okay, the concubine and others don't have to worry anymore, this is great, congratulations to the emperor!" Sun Xianglan said.

"The reason why the queen's illness can be improved this time, the reason why the queen's body can recover, all depends on the careful treatment of Concubine De, Concubine De's credit is very great, the queen has asked me to build yì, to reward Concubine De, I have asked the queen mother to canonize He Zhihan as the imperial concubine, the queen mother also agrees with the queen's construction, I just went to the queen's bedroom, the queen expressed support for my suggestion, and now I come to you, just to ask you, what do you think about the canonization of He Zhihan as the imperial concubine?" the emperor asked.

Sun Xianglan listened, like being struck by lightning, she was stunned all of a sudden, she guessed that the emperor might favor her more because Concubine De cured the queen's illness, but she didn't expect that the emperor would propose to the queen mother so soon to appoint He Zhihan as the imperial concubine, she felt that this fierce battle between her and He Zhihan in secret, she failed, at this time, the emperor was in front of her, she had to force her anger down, pretending to be happy and said: " Concubine De's sister is both talented and beautiful, with excellent medical skills and wisdom, the emperor wants to canonize her as the imperial concubine, this is a great thing, of course the concubine agrees, the concubine only asks, after Sister Zhihan becomes the imperial concubine, the emperor must not forget the concubine completely, otherwise, the concubine will be sad!"

In fact, Sun Xianglan gritted her teeth with hatred for He Zhihan in her heart, and she thought to herself: "He Zhihan, this fox spirit, this palace will not let you go, don't think that you won, the good show is still to come!" (To be continued......)
