Chapter 158 - Soaring Dragon

Ling Wang walked into the imperial study. Seeing Emperor Ming sitting on a high dragon throne, Ministry of Internal Affairs had already changed the items normally used in the imperial study into new ones. Even the dragon table in front of Emperor Ming was a new one.

"Greetings, your Imperial Majesty."

He didn't want to get into trouble with the palace anymore, but his sister was in the palace by herself and she was pregnant, so he couldn't bear to worry. He also heard that the Emperor had placed a seal in his sister's palace.

"Brother Yu, you're here. I was just about to look for you." When Emperor Ming saw the great joy on Ling Wang's face, the only one who could make Emperor Ming believe in now was his only royal brother.

"Your majesty, did chendi disturb your reading?" Ling Wang laughed lightly.

"Brother Yu, please rise. In the future, if it were only the two of us, there would be no need for such a great bow. "Why would I disturb you? I was just worrying that no one would play chess with me."

Ling Wang laughed as he spoke, "I, your brother, have nothing to do in this mansion, so I want to enter the palace to see what the emperor is doing."

"I am worried about matters within the imperial court. None of the ministers are obedient. I can't cut off their heads either. I can only leave a few for the imperial court to handle."

Emperor Ming opened his dragon robe and stood up.

It had only been a few days since they last met, but the Emperor's dragon face was even more solemn. The true might of the heavens was difficult to predict.

Ling Wang always felt that the Emperor's eyes could see through everything, and did not dare to hide anything from him.

"Your Majesty is truly a wise man. Those ministers under Your Majesty have all obediently submitted."

If it was in the past, Ling Wang would never believe that he would one day say something fawning. He couldn't help but find it funny.

Emperor Ming waved his hand and called the young eunuch to serve tea. As his face blossomed, he said, "Royal brother, since when did you become so good at speaking? This is the first time I've heard such a thing."

Ling Wang's eyes revealed a little shyness as he bit his lips and said: "Royal brother, you're making fun of me. Chendi finally mustered up the courage to say a few words, next time, chendi won't be able to say a thing."

Seeing the Ling Wang's expression, Emperor Ming knew that he was not used to saying these words. It was possible that he had a request for him. He didn't need to guess to know who he was here for.

Since Ling Wang did not say it, he could only do whatever he did not know. Regarding her, he also did not know what to do first.

Ling Wang accompanied Emperor Ming to the rear hall. The rear hall was no longer the same as it used to be, and even the curtains were brand-new. He knew that the Emperor Ming couldn't see what he had seen before, so he only did things that he couldn't.

"Your Majesty, recently, the imperial government has been stable, the world has been at peace, and the people have been able to live and work in peace. However... The imperial concubines in the harem are really too few, shouldn't Imperial Brother … "

The moment Ling Wang said this, Emperor Ming's eyes darkened, carrying an indescribable trace of sorrow.

In the past, when he was leading the army, the harem was still filled with beautiful flowers and flowers. When he returned, things had already changed, and even he did not know where his beloved concubine had gone to. Or died at someone's hands.

His Queen Du Qingcheng was not someone he could pamper in the first place, and he was too lazy to care about her anymore.

"Brother Yu, why are you suddenly concerned about my harem?" Emperor Ming raised his eyebrows and looked at Ling Wang, his eyes filled with doubt.

He had thought that Ling Di was here for the Concubine Qin, but it looks like there was someone else. These people's hands and feet were extremely quick, and they had already started plotting against the imperial harem so quickly.

Ling Wang knew that the Emperor Ming was suspicious, and did not want to hide it, so he laughed helplessly: "Isn't it the sister-in-law in the palace? Seeing that my royal brother is busy with national affairs all day and rarely goes to the imperial harem, afraid of delaying the reproduction of his children, that's why he called me here to do this favor. My imperial sister-in-law thinks that the palace should be re-chosen, and let my royal brother linger more, so that I can add a few more sons to my royal brother.

Emperor Ming glanced at Ling Wang and knew that he wasn't the type of person who was used to lying. Most likely, it was people from the palace who were looking for him.

"Your Majesty, your servant was just speaking casually. As for the matters of the imperial harem, that is up to Your Majesty to decide." However, it's always better for royal brother to have a few beauties to accompany him. " Ling Wang had not seen each other for a long time, and he liked to play some jokes. That mischievous look of his made Emperor Ming's mood very good.

"Then when will royal brother give birth to a nephew for me?" Could it be that Emperor Ming was in a good mood?

A trace of panic flashed through Ling Wang's eyes, and he said in a heavy voice: "Junior brother is not anxious, wait until senior brother has eight sons, it wouldn't be too late for me to marry him."

Emperor Ming looked at Ling Wang and saw his unease, his heart was moved and he did not speak anymore.

Emperor Ming had previously sent a few smart young eunuchs to serve him since the whereabouts of the young eunuchs by his side was no longer known.

"Your majesty, this servant has already arranged the chessboard. Your majesty and the Ling Wang, do you want to move it to the Warm Pavilion?" Seeing that the emperor was in a good mood, the young nobleman heaved a sigh of relief.

He had just come to serve the emperor and still couldn't figure out this master's temper. He was afraid that he had said the wrong thing and done the wrong thing, so he moved his mind.

Ling Wang stood up with high spirits, and said: "Today, royal brother, you must not let me, I definitely must win against you."

"You still don't know who will win? "I will absolutely not allow you to do so." Emperor Ming and Ling Wang went to the Warm Pavilion.

The Imperial Consort Leng immediately found out about the Ling Wang entering the palace. Thinking about it, she also knew that it was caused by the Consort Shu, which took a lot of effort to settle down in the palace. After a few days of comfort, she couldn't wait to get a few more girls for the Emperor.

"Empress, do you think that Consort Shu doesn't want to be pampered by the Emperor?" Ming Yuan whispered as he wiped the sweet dew on Imperial Consort Leng's hands.

Imperial Consort Leng coldly snorted, and said: "She has always been acting magnanimous, making me hate her like that old man Empress Dowager. Luckily, that old fogey left quickly, otherwise, I would have let her off scot-free.

Empress Dowager is also smart, he knows that after the emperor ascends the throne, he won't give her any face. Compared to the empress dowager, he's much smarter. "

"That's true. The empress dowager is probably not even as good as a concubine right now. The emperor has a belly full of prejudices against the empress dowager, so other than the palace's usage being the same, there's nothing else." Ming Yuan laughed.

Imperial Consort Leng caressed her stomach, wishing that she was a little prince and that the days of her stay in the Middle Palace wouldn't be long.

"Empress, Concubine Qin wishes to seek an audience?" A maid opened the curtain and walked in as he reported in a low voice.

Ming Yuan knew that the Empress did not like the Concubine Qin and grumpily said, "What is she here for? Isn't it because the Empress is pregnant with the descendants of dragons that she comes closer? Truly shameless, just like her little sister from the Concubine Qin, a fox spirit that specifically seduces the Emperor? How can she be as extravagant as our Empress? "

Imperial Consort Leng waved her hand and said to maid: "Let her in! I'm still missing a dog, so I still need to bite someone. Since I came here on my own accord, I naturally won't shirk away. "

The maid went out, and after a while, he came in with a smile on his face.

The Imperial Consort Leng laid on the bed lazily as she let Ming Yuan clean the water from the petals on her face.

It was only a few months after he left the palace, but his skin was much more haggard. It was with great difficulty that he returned to the palace. He didn't try his best to dress himself well, but the emperor was fond of fresh beauties.

"Greetings to the Empress." Seeing that the Imperial Consort Leng did not pay attention to her, the Concubine Qin did not dare to get angry, and immediately greeted her respectfully.

Imperial Consort Leng looked at Concubine Qin, and said indifferently: "Get up! Little Sister Qin, what kind of wind brought you to my palace? "

Concubine Qin looked at the furnishings in Imperial Consort Leng's palace. She was even more extravagant than before, and knew that Emperor Ming was now even more favored by her. Perhaps, if she really had Dragon Qi in her body, this Empress's throne would be hers.

"Little sister, since you know that the Empress has recently gotten pregnant and doesn't like to eat, you've specially made pastry for her." The maid behind Concubine Qin stepped forward and handed the box in his hands to the servants in the Imperial Consort Leng Palace.

Imperial Consort Leng glanced at the pastries in the embroidered box, and a cold sneer leaked out from the corner of her lips.

When a concubine of the palace gets pregnant, he would never eat anything gifted to him by another concubine. It was not like this Concubine Qin didn't know that she was just using this as an excuse to curry favor with him.

"Little sister, you're being thoughtful. Just leave it where it is!" "Seat!"

With the maid bringing over a stool, the Concubine Qin sat down. She saw that the Imperial Consort Leng's complexion was changing as compared to when she was outside the palace, and did not seem to be affected by the pregnancy at all.

After all, the palace was the palace, and it was convenient to eat.

"I can see that Big Sister Leng's face is becoming more and more beautiful. No wonder the emperor dotes on big sister, he even made little sister envious to death." A few days ago, you relied on yourself to be pampered, and in the past, you did not put Imperial Consort Leng in your eyes, but after entering the palace, you realized that you were too weak, so you had no choice but to choose Imperial Consort Leng to follow you.

Imperial Consort Leng slanted her eyes at Concubine Qin, then said: "Little Sister Qin, you really know how to speak more and more. After you entered the palace, you haven't gone to see the Concubine Qin, and I heard that her palace was sealed by the Emperor.

Imperial Consort Leng brought up Concubine Qin.

Concubine Qin knew that Imperial Consort Leng and Concubine Qin had always been at odds, and it was precisely because of this matter that she came.

Ever since she entered the palace, she had always been favored by the Concubine Qin, but she was still not pregnant. However, that woman was already about to give birth, how could she be at ease.

"My little sister sent some servants to deliver gifts, but unfortunately, none of them were able to enter. I just heard that Concubine Qin was about to give birth, I wonder if it was a man or a woman."

When Imperial Consort Leng heard this, she leaned forward and impatiently took the rouge from Ming Yuan's hand and wiped it on the mirror.

"Sister Qin came to my palace to say these useless words."

Seeing that the Imperial Consort Leng was angry, she immediately smiled apologetically. "Little sister only felt that the empress's womb was what the emperor wanted. Concubine Qin was born with the strangest bloodline, so the empress's position is currently the greatest in the palace. Naturally, she cannot allow even the slightest amount of negligence to occur in the imperial bloodline."

"Sister Qin is right. Then, according to you Sister Qin, what do you think we should do?" When Imperial Consort Leng thought about how her own son would call the woman's child big brother, she could not hold back the anger in her heart.

Even though the eldest son was very important, he couldn't be underestimated.
