Yun Fenghuang looked at him puzzled: "Your Majesty?"
"...Oh." Chunjia looked away silently, coughed dryly, and said, "The Queen Mother's old illness has relapsed, and it is also an old problem. The outside world spreads rumors, but it is not serious... But I don't know what you are thinking of?"
He was secretly wondering if he had been tricked by the imperial concubine
But when I looked at Yun Fenghuang's words and expressions, I saw that he looked very serious, and I was a little unsure...
Yun Fenghuang ignored his thoughts and said to himself: "Your Majesty, I thought that King Qin was already eight years old. In two years, he said that he would not have to accept the vassal. By then, I will still have many heirs under my knees. I'm afraid it won't be easy to accompany him to the vassal country ahead. But Zhao... is most likely willing to go there. By then, I wonder if King Qin will gradually get used to Zhao's company and forget about my concubine? "
Chunjia looked at her suspiciously, wondering if the imperial concubine was really worried about the possible alienation of her eldest son
After all, he firmly believed that the imperial concubine would treat every child as his own.
Besides, what adoptive mother would feel like if a child who was raised by one hand gradually turns to his biological mother when he grows up
This kind of emotion can be understood by normal people.
"I'm afraid A Huang is overthinking it. You raised King Qin with your own hands. How is it any different from your own son?" The emperor pondered and said smoothly, "Besides, even if the Zhao family goes to the vassal country with him, he will be celebrating the holidays. Aren’t you here to visit?”
This was the emperor's true words. He did not think that the princes, whether King Qin or Zhaoqing, including the Ninth Prince and Ninth Princess, would alienate Yun Fenghuang after knowing his life experience and realizing that he was not Yun Fenghuang's biological flesh and blood. , Get close to your mother.
Because the relationship between Yun Fenghuang and their biological mother is completely incomparable with the relationship between Queen Mother Yuan and Queen Mother Qu.
Empress Dowager Yuan, the ceremonial mistress of Queen Mother Qu, was supposed to crush Queen Mother Qu in all aspects of her position, power and status.
However, because Chunjia, their common son, is now too noble, and because of the deliberate actions of the early years, they are actually equal in terms of status.
But Yun Fenghuang was determined not to give Zhao and others a similar opportunity.
Just a very practical problem: the King of Qin is a vassal, and without Yun Fenghuang fighting for him, it is basically difficult to get a good place.
Even after becoming a vassal, he needed the support of the central court, and using Yun Fenghuang was the most convenient way.
Due to Yun Fenghuang's status and imperial favor, the emperor's heirs would have to be stupid to distance themselves from their adoptive mother because of their biological mother who had never raised them for a day.
Of course, the same kind of rice can support all kinds of people, such as the tenth prince, who even has a master who commemorates his biological mother.
But most of the time she was getting close to her biological mother in private, and her attitude towards Yun Fenghuang was still warm.
Seeing that the imperial concubine was frowning deeply, the emperor personally went to the hospital, analyzed the stakes one by one for her, and concluded that the imperial concubine's worries were completely unfounded.
"I have actually thought about what your majesty said." Yun Fenghuang nodded when he heard this, but still sighed and said, "It's just... I was relieved for myself, but I couldn't help but feel a little sorry. Zhao family and his ilk. Back then... "
She hesitated to speak, but finally said, "When I was born suddenly and prematurely, I was very scared... I also thought about what would happen if it didn't work... Who should I entrust to you when the time comes?"
"Why are you talking about this? I told you that nothing will happen to you." When it came to premature birth, Chunjia frowned slightly and felt a little scared.
To say that the most dangerous experience the imperial concubine had since entering the palace was probably this birth.
He didn't want to talk more, because not only did he not want to think about the scene of the imperial concubine struggling for her life, but he was also worried that it would involve the truth about the imperial concubine's premature birth.
So far, the palace still believes that the premature birth of the imperial concubine was caused by the empress dowager, a loving mother.
Well, Chunjia actually feels the same way...
He then continued: "Let's not talk about these past things... You, you, you have gone through such a big circle just so that I can visit you often?"
The emperor teased with a smile as if nothing had happened, "Let's just say it straight, why bother mentioning this past incident to scare me? But I can't help you mother and son. Since I came back, I haven't paid much attention to you, so that now you are just thinking wildly. "
Yun Fenghuangxin said that the emperor was really bad at learning, and his method of changing the topic by avoiding the important and choosing the trivial became more and more proficient.
"Is my mind wandering?" She came with a purpose. Of course she couldn't let the emperor dismiss her so easily, so she forcibly withdrew the topic, "I was just thinking that both King Qin and Zhaoqing were raised in In the past few years, Zhaoqing's biological mother has been granted the title of concubine, and now she has a daughter. I have always rewarded her for giving birth to a princess, and she has a clear conscience. But Zhao... So far... She is just a mere concubine in front of me. Over the years, Mrs. Zhao has always been gentle and sensible. When I think about it this time, I can't help but feel that I have bullied her honest person."
"Furthermore, your Majesty knows that King Qin and Zhaoqing have always been favored, and their temperaments are inevitably a bit squeamish."
"If they grow up and learn about their biological mother, and see that the Zhao family is much lower in status than the Yi family, will there be discord between the siblings?"
"Why did King Qin think that I favored Zhao Qing and didn't like him, so he and his biological mother had no dignity?"
Yun Fenghuang sighed, "But... if the Zhao family is also granted the title of concubine, the biological mother of the Ninth Prince will be returned, and the left and right are no longer alive. But the biological mother of the Ninth Prince... and other concubines in the palace, this... this example But it’s not that easy to drive?”
Chunjia thought for a while and felt that she was a little bit unpredictable about the purpose of the imperial concubine's visit.
Was he planning to admonish himself about Queen Mother Qu, or... was he simply trying to gain a position for the Zhao family so that he could win over the King of Qin in the future
He thought for a while and said: "If Ah Huang really wants to give the Zhao family the promotion of Yi family, there is nothing he can do. After all, King Qin is the eldest son, and with Zhao Qing, the eldest daughter, it is reasonable for her biological mother to have some extra favors. Among them. If Ah Huang feels that it is not easy to mention it, I will find an excuse to do it for you later."
After thinking about the recent events, he added, "It's just not the recent past. As you know, Ahuang, I've been very busy these days."
"I would like to thank Your Majesty!" Yun Fenghuang showed clear joy when he heard this, and even immediately stood up from his seat and gave him a bow, "I know that Your Majesty is the best!"
After hearing this, Chunjia couldn't help but smile and waved her hands: "It's just a trivial matter... I remember that Yi Shi is now one of the nine concubines? It just so happens that there are still a few empty seats in the ninth concubine. I will tell the queen later to give Then Zhao will just make up for it."
The title of concubine, especially for a concubine from a poor family to be granted the title of concubine, is as difficult as going to heaven for a good family member from a poor family.
But for people with high positions in the harem like Gu Zhen and Yun Fenghuang, it is not uncommon.
Not to mention the emperor
Chunjia promised very easily.
He has been working hard on government affairs these days. It was rare to have the imperial concubine accompanying him for most of the day. Naturally, he had to work overtime to make up for the delayed government affairs.
It wasn't until late that night that I suddenly woke up. I couldn't help pinching my forehead and sighing: "After all, I have been fooled by the imperial concubine!"
In fact, it was not that he didn't realize that the imperial concubine probably wanted to intercede with Queen Mother Qu.
But except for the first sentence, the imperial concubine did not talk about this elder. Instead, she talked a lot about the King of Qin and the Zhao family. The emperor has not paid attention to the affairs of the harem these days, and his mind is on government affairs. It’s a little bit round the corner: no matter what you say, Queen Mother Qu is still the emperor’s mother-in-law.
Even if Empress Dowager Yuan wanted to eliminate her, she could not do it openly.
After all, the relationship between a mother and a child who are not related by blood can only be maintained by emotion; between a biological mother and her son, even if they temporarily turn against each other, one day they will remember the fate of being pregnant in ten months, and it will only take a moment to resolve the past.
In other words, even if people in the world think that the emperor's affection for Queen Mother Qu is not as deep as that of Queen Mother Yuan, it does not affect Queen Mother Qu's comfortable life in her later years. At most, it will make Queen Mother Qu look bad.
Chunjia also knew this.
Therefore, if the imperial concubine directly proposed to do Empress Dowager Qu's face, he would probably decline it politely.
It's not that I don't want to give Empress Dowager Qu face, but I'm more concerned about Empress Dowager Yuan's mood.
In the end, Yun Fenghuang didn't let him do anything directly for the Queen Mother Qu, but instead asked for a canonization for the seemingly unrelated Zhao family!
Being promoted from a palace concubine to a concubine, and one of the nine concubines, this was naturally a joy for the Zhao family.
But for Yun Fenghuang, she could handle Yi Xing'en, who was beautiful in her prime and had been favored to this day. So what if a mere Zhao family made her a concubine? On the contrary, it makes her even more magnanimous, which proves that following the imperial concubine is the real future.
But what will others think
If you think about it from the standpoint of not knowing the inside story, when the Queen Mother Qu received news of her illness, the emperor did not come to visit her in person, nor did he say that she would be brought to the imperial capital to be raised. It seemed that he did not attach much importance to his biological mother.
But Heujiu canonized the Zhao family, the biological mother of the eldest son of the emperor, who no one even noticed. This...
Can we avoid speculation that the emperor was actually worried about his biological mother, but he was too embarrassed to express it directly because of Empress Dowager Yuan's feelings
So, by canonizing the Zhao family, he hinted that he had not forgotten his biological mother
Although this could not directly advocate for Queen Mother Qu, it also indirectly helped Queen Mother Qu gain some back.
"Then Your Majesty, is this Zhao family still canonized?" Yan Yin was waiting at the side. After figuring out the whole story, he was quite speechless. After thinking about it, he asked for instructions.
"...I have agreed. If I regret it, I'm afraid the imperial concubine will make a fuss." Chunjia thought for a while and sighed with a smile, "That's all. I didn't think carefully about it. It's not a big deal... I just obey the imperial concubine."
He did pay more attention to Queen Mother Yuan, but that didn't mean he had to suppress Queen Mother Qu.
In fact, if it weren't for the deep grudge between the two mothers, in Chunjia's mind, he would be happy to support them in the palace at the same time.
Now that the imperial concubine had helped Queen Mother Qu plot against him, he would have made the mistake.
The one who benefited was his own mother, not an outsider.
It's from Queen Mother Yuan's side...
Chunjia thought for a while and ordered Yanyin: "Zhuantian and Yuan's mother told her that the reason why the Zhao family was canonized was because the King of Qin and Zhaoqing were fighting each other. I was worried about the throne of the Yi family and the Zhao family. There is a huge gap in status, and I originally planned to promote the Zhao family. The two children just had a fight in the past two days, so I was anxious and gave the order casually, without any other intention. "
There is no way. If she doesn't communicate with Queen Mother Yuan about this matter, Queen Mother Yuan will definitely think too much.
If they communicate, Empress Dowager Yuan will definitely resent Yun Fenghuang even more.
We can only let the two young children take the blame.
... But Empress Dowager Yuan is not easy to fool. After hearing the news, she smiled lightly and said, "Is this an important matter? It is worthy of the emperor to let the Ai family know."
He turned around and said: "The emperor is busy with government affairs these days and can't even take care of the harem. How can he still have time to deal with the disputes between the two children?! Even if such a thing really happens, someone must have caused trouble in front of the emperor and deliberately caused trouble. The one who killed the emperor! Who else could this person be except Xiaoyun?! Apart from her, no one else can incite the emperor to drag out the emperor's heir to cover her up!"
