Emperor Longqing had not slept all night. When he saw her, he nodded slightly to her, but he was still thinking that she shouldn't have come: "Aman can't leave her alone, why did you come here in person?"
Queen Fang shook her head slowly, sat beside him and held his hand: "I'm still worried." Seeing that the tea in front of him had gone cold, she quickly ordered someone to bring him another cup.
Emperor Longqing smiled at her and said, "Forget it. How can we care about so many things at this moment?"
He paused, and seeing that the servants had all gone far away, he sighed, rubbed his brows and told her: "I know that you have been wronged this time..."
He lowered his head, thinking about something. After a while, he said, "It would be bad to keep that slave Deshun. Let's just beat him to death."
Queen Fang had already expected this result. She pursed her lips for a long time and then hummed.
The expression on Emperor Longqing's face became more relaxed. "You will still be in charge of the palace affairs. Concubine De is young and has suddenly gained power. It is not uncommon for her to have some inappropriate thoughts. Just teach her well. Thank you for your help, Queen."
What he said was correct originally, but now when I hear it, I don't know why, it always sounds very harsh.
From what he said, Queen Fang knew that he was really in love with Concubine De.
I couldn't tell whether I felt more disgust or jealousy in my heart. I agreed in a daze. Just as I was about to say something else, I suddenly heard the loud cry of a baby outside.
Emperor Longqing no longer cared about Empress Fang. He stood up suddenly, his eyes shining, and walked out of the side hall in two steps.
A maid had already come out to announce the good news: "Your Majesty! The Queen has given birth to a little prince!"
The fatigue and irritability on Emperor Longqing's face finally disappeared, and he laughed loudly: "Good! Good! A big reward for the six palaces!"
When Empress Fang gave birth, she also enjoyed the feast in the palace.
The room was silent for a moment, and then Empress Fang came out and was the first to congratulate Emperor Longqing: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, on the birth of your son."
Emperor Longqing helped her up with both hands. He was in a very good mood, as if a big stone had fallen from the ground. He felt relieved. He patted her hands and sighed softly: "I have nothing to worry about anymore..."
They have been married for many years. In the past, Queen Fang would have understood that he was happy because he had a son without him saying anything.
However, after what happened with the Fang family and Concubine De's usurpation of power, Empress Fang subconsciously stopped thinking in this direction. There was a smile on the corner of her mouth, but there was no smile in her eyes. She glanced towards the east side hall of Lanyue Palace before slowly retracting her gaze.
Ask him: "Your Majesty, what should we do about the third day of the baptism?"
Concubine De gave birth to a son. When the news reached outside the palace, Prince Linjiang was in Concubine Yu's room. Concubine Yu placed a chess piece on the chessboard and looked up at Prince Linjiang.
Prince Linjiang lowered his head again, stretched out his hand and placed a piece, looked at Concubine Yu and smiled: "Based on your understanding of your sister, will she have any ideas now that she gave birth to a son?"
Concubine Yu smiled and nodded, her five fingers stretched out like green onions, so cute and watery. She collected a few chess pieces and then laughed: "Since she was young, my sister has always liked to compete for the first place at home, otherwise she would not have insisted on entering the palace to be the best. Now that opportunities are presented to her one after another, how can she not grab them?"
She sighed as she spoke: "The prince is trying to promote her in order to let her compete with the queen, but in my opinion...even if the two palaces are on the verge of a fight, it has not yet come to the point of life and death..."
The reason why Defei was favored was because of the help of Prince Linjiang - she blocked the knife for Emperor Longqing, and it was also the flaw that Shen Chen deliberately exposed to her when he rescued the emperor.
Later, Prince Linjiang deliberately plotted against the Fang family, causing Empress Fang to harbor a grudge against Emperor Longqing and become at odds with him.
That's why Concubine De had such a smooth journey. A few days ago, she was able to directly bypass the Central Palace to meet with the ladies of honor.
But even so, the effect is too slow to be seen - the two princes are still young, still in their infancy, what can be seen? We have to wait until we can fight for them, and we don't know when we will have to wait.
The prince's move was too far-fetched.
Prince Linjiang knew what she meant, smiled and leaned back in his chair. Seeing Concubine Yu throw away the chess piece in her hand and come over to massage his shoulders, he said, "We'll be there soon."
He smiled and said, "Haven't you heard? The Fourth Prince had a high fever for more than half a month. It was caused by Consort De's failure to manage palace affairs and her indulgence of eunuchs and maids in the palace to have private relations. Although the eunuch is dead, do you think the Queen will be able to let go of her anger?"
This is not something Concubine De would do. If she really wanted to scare Queen Fang's son, how could she let her trusted eunuch pass a message to a little palace maid
Unless he is crazy.
Concubine Yu frowned, and after a moment she slowly shook her head: "The Queen is too young and too willful."
But Concubine De is not willful. Not only is she not willful, she is also an ambitious and resourceful person.
How could she tolerate Queen Fang's plot against her
Even when she didn't have a son, she couldn't swallow her anger, let alone after she gave birth to a son
Prince Linjiang lowered his head and observed the chess game carefully, but his face remained calm. After collecting the chess pieces, he told Concubine Yu: "Next time you come to the palace, feel free to mention the situation outside. Tell Concubine De that the ministers have already discussed the issue of the succession."
Of the two little princes, the Empress has the advantage of being the legitimate and the eldest, so naturally it is the right thing to do to let her son ascend the throne. However, Concubine De does not think this is natural.
There was already a knot in her heart. Empress Fang was trying to get rid of Concubine De by using herself and the little prince. How could Concubine De feel at ease? I'm afraid she couldn't close her eyes when she slept at night.
Emperor Longqing was always concerned about whether there would be a fire in other people's backyards, but forgot to look back at the conflicts and disputes among his wives and concubines in his own harem.
Prince Linjiang curled the corners of his mouth, and when he heard Concubine Yu's response, he smiled. Just as he was about to go to bed, a little maid came timidly outside to report that the princess wanted to see him.
Concubine Yu lowered her eyes and stood aside with lowered brows.
King Linjiang couldn't help but frown.
Princess Linjiang was becoming more and more out of control, but he could not show his dissatisfaction with the princess in front of a concubine. He nodded, told Concubine Yu to rest, and walked towards Princess Linjiang's room.
Princess Linjiang was extremely anxious in the room. When she heard him coming, she hurried out to greet him: "Your Highness... I heard the news... that the candidate for Jingxing's wife has been chosen. Do you know about this?"
