The emperor was in a particularly good mood today, and he had been happy all the way since he walked out of the queen's bedchamber.

The Empress's body had basically healed, and the Emperor no longer had to worry about her illness as before, which made him feel very relaxed.

Over the years, although the emperor has no true love for the queen, but many years of married life have made them have a kind of family affection, the emperor still has a lot of worries about the queen, this time the queen is sick, the emperor is very worried about the queen's condition, in the emperor's heart, the queen still occupies a certain position.

In the emperor's eyes, although the empress was not an outstanding woman, nor was she the kind of woman worthy of his affection, the emperor did not completely ignore her, and the emperor regarded the empress as a woman who must be treated with kindness and sympathy.

The queen is not beautiful, but her appearance is not annoying; the queen is not smart, but she is self-aware, she knows what to do and what not to do; the queen has no special charm, but she is very empathetic; the queen will insist on some of her own opinions in terms of maintaining her position, but she will never show stubbornness; the queen wants to be respected by the people around her, but she has never shown her ambition to others.

These characteristics of the queen made the emperor feel that she could be the queen, and with her, although there was no vigorous love stimulation, but in court life, it was possible to experience some warmth, and the emperor did not feel that the queen was very boring.

When the empress was in good health, the emperor sometimes forgot about her save, feeling that there was nothing lacking without her. And when the empress was seriously ill, the emperor would often think about her, hoping that her condition would improve as much as possible, and that her body would recover as much as possible.

The emperor went to the queen's bedroom this time to see the queen and care about her physical condition, but. When he saw the queen recover. His attention was no longer on the empress, and the emperor was not concerned about the empress who was getting better, but about the concubine who treated the empress.

During this period of time when Concubine De was treating the queen, Concubine De's ability, courage and morality were revealed. Attracted the attention of the emperor. He was getting more and more interested in her.

The emperor felt. From the death of Concubine De's father to the time when Concubine De cured the queen's illness, Concubine De's various expressions were very exciting, before. The emperor appreciates Concubine De, mainly because of Concubine De's gracefulness, softness, Gentleness and virtuous characteristics, these are the character traits expressed by Concubine De in the calm court life, the emperor appreciated these characteristics of her, and in this period of time, the peaceful court life was broken, the queen was seriously ill, the imperial physician He who treated the queen was arrested and imprisoned, and died in prison, Concubine De lost her father, she herself was implicated, she was relegated to the laundry room, experienced a lot of tribulation, and in this dangerous predicament, Concubine De, with her wisdom, miraculously regained her freedom, became a female physician who treated the queen's illness, and successfully cured the queen's illness, in this ups and downs of the experience, Concubine De Xiàn is particularly eye-catchingThe emperor was very surprised to find that Concubine De was not only soft and gentle, but also had another charm, in her, with the bravery, wit and decisiveness that ordinary demure and gentle women do not have, the emperor found a new Concubine De, she has both rigidity and softness, wisdom and bravery, in Concubine De, the emperor saw the wonderful combination of beauty, courage, wisdom, kindness, etc., the emperor felt that he loved Concubine De more.

At this time, the empress, who had recovered physically, was not so concerned by the emperor, and the emperor felt that Concubine De was far more wonderful and attractive than the empress.

In the eyes of the emperor, the queen has always been a woman with no obvious shortcomings, and precisely because she has no obvious shortcomings, there are no eye-catching advantages, so although the queen is the first wife chosen by the queen mother for the emperor herself, the emperor has never really loved the queen, and he has always only been friendly with her.

After the queen, what really made the emperor moved was the virtuous concubine Liu Xianglan, Liu Xianglan is a woman of the Quanchen family, from the perspective of consolidating the imperial power, the queen mother praised the emperor for marrying Liu Xianglan, and the virtuous concubine is indeed a very outstanding woman, she is smart and sensitive, elegant manners, can speak well, she is sophisticated, good at getting along with all kinds of friendships, concubines in the harem, In the group of eunuchs, the idle concubine coped with it like a fish in water, and never made the queen mother feel uneasy, but after the emperor favored Liu Xianglan for a while, he found that the virtuous concubine's way of dealing with the world was too old, and she handled everything seamlessly.

The more the emperor looked at Concubine Xian, the more disgusted she became, she perfected her sleekness with false words and deeds, and her smile all day long, so that the emperor could not understand when she was happy and when she was sad, as if she had never been sad, therefore, she did not look like a concubine with feelings; her endless sweet words to the emperor made the emperor feel that there was no real sweetness at all; she always had a self-conscious Jianyì, which made the emperor feel that he had to listen to the endless nagging whenever he met her, and later, the emperor hated Concubine Xian very much, and often deliberately avoided her, and no longer favored her。

Compared with Concubine Xian, the emperor felt that Concubine De was more feminine, more elegant, more intelligent, and more sincere, with Concubine Xian, the emperor could often find unexpected pleasure, and when he got along with Concubine De, the emperor always had a feeling that he didn't want to leave her, Concubine De was not by his side, and the emperor would miss her very much.

Coming out of the queen's bedroom, the emperor found that he had ignited a strong love for Concubine De, and he couldn't leave her, he thought to himself: "When Concubine De completely cures the queen's house, I will choose another dormitory for her, let her live in a more luxurious palace, in order to reward Concubine De for curing the queen's illness, I will try my best to build a yì to the queen mother, so that Concubine De can be promoted to the imperial concubine, of course, I will not let her replace the queen, but in the future, Concubine De must be my favorite woman, and I will spend a lot of time with Concubine De." ”

The emperor quickly put his ideas into action, and the next day. The Emperor arrived at the Empress Dowager's bed early, and he was going to tell his mother what he had thought last night.

The emperor knows his mother very well, he knows that the queen is his mother's niece, and the queen mother loves the queen the most, for many years, the position of the imperial concubine has been vacant, precisely because the queen mother does not allow anyone to sit on the throne of the imperial concubine in order to protect the queen, but the emperor has made up his mind this time. He will speak his heart to his mother. He had to do his best to persuade the Queen Mother to accept Concubine De.

The emperor thought: "The queen mother is old, and after she drives the crane to the west, she needs to have a successor who has both ability and integrity to manage the harem." The queen is not suitable. Only Concubine He Zhihan is the most suitable candidate. ”

The emperor walked into the queen mother's apartment.

"Son-in-law, please give peace to the queen mother! I wish the queen mother good health. Shoubi Nanshan!" As soon as the emperor entered the door, he saluted the queen mother.

"The emperor doesn't have to pay attention to the government today, why did he come to see the mourning family so early?" the queen mother was surprised by the emperor's sudden arrival in her bedroom, and she asked sternly.

"With the comprehensive supervision and guidance of the queen mother, how dare the sons and daughters abandon the government. There is a reason why I came to see the queen mother so early today, one is because the son has not come to say hello to the queen mother for a few days, and he should come to say hello; the second is to report the good news to you, yesterday the son went to see the queen, the queen has basically recovered under the careful management of Concubine De, she has been able to bow to me, it is estimated that with ten days of rest, her body can be fully recovered, the queen mother no longer has to worry about the queen's condition, it will not be long before the queen can go to the queen mother's bedroom to ask the queen mother. The Emperor said happily.

"This is really good news, the queen's illness can be cured, the mourning family is the happiest, the emperor, hearing you say this, the queen mother is very happy, you finally know how to love the queen, can go to her bedroom to visit her, this is a good thing, the emperor has grown up, knows the importance of family love, the queen's condition has not completely improved, you have to care more about her, set aside some time, often go to see her. ”

The Queen Mother thought to herself: "If you loved the queen as much as you did today, she might not have been seriously ill, this time the queen suffered from a serious illness, I hope you can be sensible, understand how to care more about the queen in the future, and really love her." ”

The Queen Mother continued: "The folk often say 'family and everything is prosperous', you are the emperor, the most powerful man in the world's first family, if you don't know how to love your wife, can the royal family still 'prosper'? ”

"Listen to the teachings of the queen mother, you must go to see the queen often in the future, as long as you can make the queen happy, the queen mother is willing to do whatever the queen says, the queen will soon be fully recovered, please rest assured!" said the emperor.

"Emperor, when you come to the queen mother today, you shouldn't just report the queen's physical recovery to the queen mother, right? When the queen mother sees your attitude today, she knows that you still have something to say and what you want to say, so you can boldly say it to the queen mother, no need to go around in circles!" said the queen mother.

The emperor thought to himself, "The queen mother is really powerful, and if I say a few words of respect, she knows that I still have something to say." ”

The Empress Dowager looked at the emperor with a stern face, and that kind of concentrated posture made the emperor a little flustered, but the emperor couldn't avoid the topic at this time, as long as he stubbornly said: "Actually, there is nothing important, it's just that Erchen went to see the queen today, and the queen proposed a Jianyi, and Erchen felt that there was some truth, so he wanted to tell her Jianyì to the queen mother and listen to the mother's advice." ”

"Is it? The queen has never interfered in your political affairs, what kind of proposal did she propose, can you tell me?"

"This time the queen's condition can improve, to be able to save a life, it is completely the credit of Concubine De, the queen asked her sons to remember Concubine De's kindness, she built yì, asked her sons to praise Concubine De in front of the queen mother, said that the royal family should not forget the merits of Concubine De, and the sons also felt that Concubine De had made a great contribution this time, if there was no her, the queen's illness did not know when it would be cured, so Concubine De should be rewarded. The emperor said.

The Queen Mother listened to what the emperor said, she was shocked, before the emperor said these words, the Queen Mother had already guessed in her heart that what the emperor was going to say, it was likely to be a word to praise Concubine De, but she still hoped that what the emperor said had nothing to do with Concubine De, but the emperor really said what she didn't want to hear, before, Concubine Sun Xianglan had implicitly reminded the Queen Mother, saying that once Concubine De cured the queen's illness and had merit, she would definitely let the emperor come up to ask the Queen Mother for merit and reward, and even asked to be the imperial concubine, now, the queen's illness is not completely cured, the emperor really came to speak for Concubine De, the queen mother listened to the emperor's words, and was very unhappy。

The Queen Mother thought: "He Zhihan is really a powerful character, the queen's illness has not been completely cured, she asked the emperor to ask for credit for her, her ambition to be a great accomplishment has really been seen by Concubine Xian, if it goes on like this, the consequences are worrying, why is the emperor so confused, not only did he not see He Zhihan's scheming clearly, he also spoke for her so hard, however, the mourning family did not interrupt the emperor's words for the time being, let him say all his thoughts."
