Grandmother was worried about the empress's love, so she advised the queen to have her heart in her body.
The king set a new system with his son, and the concubine of the imperial concubine adopted a son.
When Rong'er returned to the palace, she still felt a lingering fear in her heart. Little Qing called out from the side, "I'm the smartest! I saw that the empress's expression didn't look too good today. I'll immediately send someone to inform the advisor. This advisor finally got back to business today!"
Rong'er laughed bitterly, "Xiaoqing, you've always been so close to the advisors. They even thought that I was trying to seduce the people around the Emperor to do the same."
"Afraid of what? That is envy. That fellow in the advisory firm is a loyal person and he is not someone who would flatter others just because of his wealth. Others are unable to win him over! " After all, she had been friends with the Consultant Guild for more than ten years.
Rong'er chuckled. "Xiaoqing, why do I feel that you particularly like the advisory firm? It's a pity that he's a eunuch. Otherwise, I would definitely have gotten His Majesty to grant you a marriage."
"Mistress, what are you saying?" Xiaoqing's face turned red as she shouted, "I like a lousy eunuch like him!"
"If you like it, you like it. Why deny it? Look, your face is already red." Rong'er didn't give up and continued teasing her. Hearing this, Xiaoqing's face turned even redder.
Su Ya and Qiu Er, who were serving at the side, also laughed. "Ignore the both of you. I'm going down. Master will call for me after he has given instructions!" After Xiaoqing said this, she ran out with a red face, leaving Rong'er and the other two behind to laugh at her.
After the room quietened down, Rong'er became worried. Although Xiaoqing had the consultant inform the Emperor to save her out of good intentions, this would inevitably deepen the Queen's dissatisfaction towards her. Originally, she wasn't in a good mood, but now it had become even more difficult. Perhaps this was the true reaction of a queen, Rong'er thought. How much tolerance did the filial piety queen have to endure?
In the empress dowager's Tzu Ning Palace, Xuan Ye received the message. His imperial grandmother invited him over, so he knew that it was most likely related to the empress.
Xuan Ye's guess was not wrong. Just as he sat down, the empress dowager asked, "Grandson, I heard that you've placed the empress under house arrest?"
"Reporting to Royal Grandmother, Nahu Lu has only been the Queen for a few months, and he has already treated the other imperial concubines like this in the palace. Yesterday, he beat Noble Lady De, and Noble Lady De was pregnant with Long Si. Xuan Ye replied in a soft voice, "I just wanted her to calm down and think about it. He'll only be grounded for a month."
"Your Majesty, if it wasn't for the empress wanting to beat Rong'er up today, would you have scolded her? In fact, Dongzhu was also very pitiable, after entering the palace, she had been neglected for twelve years. In addition to her Ama Biron being ill and the glory that the Newcome had brought to the clan, she was also the empress, simply because they hoped that the Emperor would pamper her more. Grandson, you are often being cold to her, and that's not right, on New Year's Day, you actually didn't stay in her palace, but chose to pass on a concubine. The empress dowager spoke sincerely and earnestly. After all, the empress was the emperor's official palace and could be considered his direct wife. She hoped that the empress and the emperor could get along with each other peacefully. Only then would the imperial harem be safe.
"This... Royal Grandmother, but this time she was wrong. " Xuan Ye argued in a low voice.
The empress dowager smiled. "That's fine, we can just enforce the ban for a month. But in the future, the emperor must promise This Dowager that he will treat her well and visit her more often. The emperor must remove all prejudice towards the empress and accept her wholeheartedly.
Xuan Ye looked at the empress dowager. He knew what her grandmother said was correct, so he nodded. "Your grandson understands. I will listen to your teachings!"
The empress dowager nodded and smiled. "This Dowager knows that This Dowager's grandson will understand this logic."
Xuan Ye laughed and suddenly thought of the prince's matter. "Royal Grandmother, Zhaolji's illness is getting worse …" Xuan Ye lowered his head and said sorrowfully, "I'm afraid …" "We won't be able to pass this trial …"
"Oh? "How can it be so serious, Zurzi is at the prime of his life!" The empress dowager said with regret.
Xuan Ye sighed helplessly. "The so-called sickness is like a landslide. It's hard to fight for one's life in a strong age …" He thought of his Imperial Father, then looked towards the empress dowager and said, "That's why this grandson wants to discuss this matter with Imperial Grandmother regarding Zhi Yin."
"What does the Emperor mean?" The empress dowager raised her head to look at Xuan Ye.
"Royal Grandmother, I wish to bring the prince back to the palace. It has been almost a year since I passed away, and there are no longer any ill effects in the palace." Royal Grandmother, I want to bring the prince back to the palace, and now I have passed away almost a year since I passed away. Xuan Ye looked at her imperial grandmother's eyes, inquiring what her intentions were.
Grand Matriarch didn't change her tone as she spoke. "What His Majesty said isn't unreasonable. Qing Qing was even allowed to be raised by the empress, and Wan Ji was given to his concubine to continue taking him away. This Zhi … Leave it for Imperial Concubine Yi to raise. "
"Royal Grandmother, your grandson has always had an idea. I would like to discuss it with Royal Grandmother." Xuan Ye looked at the empress dowager with some hesitation.
"What do you think, grandson?" The empress dowager smiled at Xuan Ye.
"I have always pursued filial piety, and I thought it would be cruel for the prince to leave the side of his own mother early. I want to set the system so that all concubines and concubines can raise the prince themselves, and when the prince grows up, I will arrange for the official education of the prince to be given to my brother." Xuan Ye said as he wiped his mouth.
His Majesty is his sovereign, and he has his own authority. If the ministers are dissatisfied with the emperor's decision to complain to her, she will intervene at all costs, and it would be impossible for the emperor to establish his authority among the officials. This imperial harem system might seem like a family matter for the emperor, but how could there be any family matters for the emperor? All of the ministers were watching, and after a long time, the empress dowager said softly, "You can't bear to have Ronger be sad, right? "You want Rong'er to raise Zhi Zhi by himself?"
"Royal Grandmother … I can't bear to see Rong'er sad... "You know …" Xuan Ye said in a low voice, "But …" Royal Grandmother, your grandson only has one regret in his life, and that is that my relationship with my first wife was too short. I often try my best to recall my mother's appearance, but … However, he had long since forgotten about it … This grandson does not wish for this grandson's children to have the same regrets as this grandson! "
The empress dowager heaved a heavy sigh. "Alright, Rong'er can take care of Prince Yin by himself. What about protecting him?" and let concubines raise them? "
"Of course not, Nu Hulu has kept her clean for so many years, but he must still let her raise her. His concubine is still raising Wan Ju, and Chang Zai Tong can also be seen raising Wan Ju from time to time." Xuan Ye thought for a moment before replying.
The empress thought that he had done something fair, but only Rong'er benefited from it all by herself. From the perspective of an experienced person, since last year, when Rong'er was taken care of by the emperor, during this year, the emperor's love for his son became more and more widespread, as he raised his nationality and bestowed his surname to the empress. Now that he was appointed as his biological son, it was no wonder that the empress would hate him. His decision is an imperial edict, and can only be changed by himself. She can only look at it, and hope that this kind of sole favor will not affect the harem. The Empress Dowager gave a bitter smile, and thought again, "Has Your Majesty forgotten the words of Ronger? Aren't you afraid that Prince Yin might die too early? " Actually, the empress dowager still harbored some grudges towards this message.
"That's a rumor spread by someone. I believe Rong'er will break that rumor. She personally brought up Prince Yin in person, so she'll break the rumour's most powerful evidence. Besides, doesn't Rongxian look very good?" Thinking of his adorable daughter, a hint of a smile appeared on Xuan Ye's face.
The empress dowager sighed. "You are the emperor, and I don't wish to question your decision. If the emperor thinks it's alright, then so be it."
