Vol 2 Chapter 871: The emperor can’t do that (three shifts)

"No! Nothing!"
Emperor Wen De was determined.
No matter who comes to intercede, it's useless.
Concubines crying outside the gate of Xingqing Palace?
I'm sorry, Emperor Wen De has a heart of stone and quit female sex, so it's no use crying beautifully.
The ministers tried in vain to know reason and move emotions.
Ha ha!
Emperor Wen De shook his eyes and understood it by himself.
If you dare to reach out, you must have the consciousness of being chopped off.
All courtiers who committed the crime were arrested.
The palace people who dared to pass news outside the palace were not so lucky. Once the crime is confirmed, he shall be put to death.
A corpse was carried out of the palace and buried in a mass grave.
Everyone is in danger in the harem.
Where the Shen Xing Division passed, even the harem concubine had to be a human being with her tail clipped.
Only a talented person died two days ago, and no one wanted to follow suit.
Liu Yi, the fourth prince, was dismissed from work and stayed at home.
He is in a better situation and can go to the palace as usual to ask for peace.
In Weiyang's palace, the mother and son met.
The fourth prince Liu Yi pleased him, and asked with concern: "Is the mother okay?"
Empress Pei lay crookedly on the Arhat couch, lacking energy.
She shook her head and complained: "Everyone in the harem is in danger. What's better in this palace. The more the Department of Shen Xing has released it, even Weiyang Palace dares to investigate."
"The empress will forbear, wait for the wind to pass, and she will get better."
"My palace understands this truth. My palace is just not irritating with the arrogant attitude of the Department of Justice."
Queen Pei put the tea cup on the desk again, making a sound.
She asked Liu Yi, the fourth prince, "Did you visit your father?"
The fourth prince Liu Yi nodded, "The son went to Xingqing Palace to greet him, but the father refused to see his son."
Queen Pei frowned, "Your father is really confused as he gets older."
"The mother's queen speaks carefully."
Empress Pei said indifferently: "Even if you are in front of your father, this palace will say the same to him. He is getting older, no longer smarter and more confused in his early years. This is a fact. Your father should let him You take on more errands."
The fourth prince Liu Yi frowned, "Please be careful, the queen!"
"Huh! What are you afraid of? My palace did not say anything wrong."
The fourth prince Liu Yi rubbed his eyebrows, "Mother, now she is not in the palace, and she can't say anything."
"Okay, okay, this palace just complains. Does your elder brother Liu Zhao write back?"
"You have to ask your sister-in-law. Maybe your sister-in-law has received a letter from your eldest brother."
"This unfilial son." Empress Pei was annoyed. "The palace raised him once, but I couldn't even receive the letter."
The fourth prince Liu Yi was silent.
He would not speak ill of Liu Zhao, but he would not excuse Liu Zhao.
It is indeed inappropriate for Liu Zhao not to write to the palace.
Empress Pei scolded Liu Zhao and felt a little more relaxed.
"I heard that your sister-in-law moved back to the Grand Prince's Mansion with your child."
"Exactly!"
"Can you say when will the housewarming banquet be held?"
"Said I will do it after Big Brother returns to Beijing."
"When Liu Zhao returns to Beijing, the day lily will be cold. What housewarming banquet will be held then. She is also confused. Liu Zhao is now in the northwest and needs courtier support. My palace thought she moved back to the Grand Prince's Mansion at this time. I wanted to take the opportunity to hold a housewarming banquet to win relations for Liu Zhao. The result was too disappointing for her."
Queen Pei scolded Gu Jiu again.
Scolded Gu Jiu for not knowing about Liu Zhao's sake or seizing the opportunity.
When Empress Pei finished scolding, Liu Yicai, the fourth prince, said: "The relationship between the eldest brother and the ministers of the DPRK is not good. Even if the sister-in-law holds a housewarming banquet, the family members of civil and military officials may not come to the banquet. Hold a housewarming banquet."
"Absurd!" Queen Pei scolded Liu Yi.
"Except for civil servants and military generals, the royal family members and family members don't need to entertain and contact you? Your father is angry, but he can't stop your sister-in-law from hosting a housewarming banquet. No, this palace will arrange for someone to invite your sister-in-law into the palace."
"Mother, wait a minute." Liu Yi stopped Queen Pei. "Big brother is in the northwest, and my sister-in-law is hosting a high-profile banquet. I'm afraid it's wrong."
Empress Pei asked angrily, "What's wrong? You always speak for her. Could it be that you and Xiao Qin'er took advantage of her."
Liu Yi quickly denied, "The son is thinking about the eldest brother. The queen thinks about it, the father is not at ease with the eldest brother. At this time, the sister-in-law is holding a banquet to win over the relationship, which will definitely arouse the dissatisfaction of the father. There are too many. What should I do if I am involved with the eldest brother in the northwest? The eldest brother has finally won this opportunity, but he can't give up all his efforts and let others take advantage of it."
Empress Pei frowned and thought deeply, "The second child has been imprisoned in Zongzheng Temple, and there must be no chance to make trouble at the moment."
"But there are third brothers, and the fifth and sixth. Concubine Rod has been silent for these years, but she is steady. When it comes to the critical moment, she may not have no means."
Queen Pei snorted coldly, "If Concubine Rod wants to fight for the fifth chance, it depends on whether the house agrees. The third birth mother passed away early, because his life experience was pitiful and he was poisoned. Your father was very tolerant to him. The third child, like the second child, is a restless master. If he jumps up and down, he might really make him succeed."
"So the son said, it's good for the eldest brother if the sister-in-law does not hold a housewarming banquet at this time."
"How many benefits can there be?"
Empress Pei accepted Liu Yi's remarks, but was still unhappy.
She was dissatisfied with Liu Zhao, and she was also dissatisfied with Gu Jiu.
She had never tasted the pleasure of being a mother-in-law in front of the daughter-in-law Gu Jiu.
It's really maddening.
Queen Pei rubbed her eyebrows, "What has Xiao Qin'er been up to lately?"
Liu Yi was embarrassed to say.
Queen Pei took a look at him, "I can't say anything."
"Qin'er is pregnant, less than three months old, so the son said nothing."
"Really?" Queen Pei was overjoyed, "I didn't expect her to be pregnant at this age. The fetal image is unstable?"
"The imperial doctor said that the baby is very stable and everything is fine at the moment. Qin'er has no response."
Empress Pei laughed, "This is a good thing! You have to tell your father!"
But Liu Yi had a different idea. "My son wants to wait for Qin'er to be released for three months."
"Why is this?"
Liu Yi said solemnly: "The son heard that the emperor father has been extremely irritable recently, and he has been slapped and scolded at every turn. Reporting the news at this time may not be able to please the emperor, but maybe it will stimulate the emperor."
"I can't please your father, this palace can understand. To stimulate your father, where do you start?"
Liu Yi thought about it before saying: "I heard that my father hasn't entered the harem for a long time, and he hasn't turned over the concubine sign. Will it be my father..."
"what!"
Queen Pei was shocked and surprised, she had never guessed that way before.
"You mean, your father is dying?" Empress Pei covered her mouth for fear that this would spread.
Liu Yi lowered his voice and said, "I hope my son is not for this reason. But in case...I report the news that Qin'er is pregnant at this time, it is hard to guarantee that the father will not think too much. I think the son and mother are laughing at him."
Queen Pei covered her mouth and nodded repeatedly.
"Your concerns are justified."
Empress Pei dared to be in front of Emperor Wende, scolding Emperor Wende for getting older and more confused, and even scolded him for being shameless, but she never dared to say that Emperor Wende was not good.
It's a man's self-esteem. Ordinary men can't accept being scolded, let alone being an emperor.
This is a dead spot!
Queen Pei thinks she has discovered the truth.
She let out a sigh of relief, "This explains why your father has been so irritable recently, and the court has raised a big case in the palace, making people panic."
It is not the first day to pass news inside and outside the palace.
This situation has always existed since the day the palace was established.
Emperor Wen De didn't pursue it in the past, but it must have been stimulated to pursue it at this time.
Queen Pei said: "You still want to be thoughtful. I instruct Qin'er to take good care of the baby, and don't go to the palace recently to please peace. It's best to add another son to you."
"The son also hopes that this child will be a direct child."
Liu Yi brought a car of rewards back to the Fourth Prince's Mansion. Two blocks away from the Grand Prince's Mansion.
Xiao Qin'er is checking her daughter's female red.
Seeing Liu Yi's return, he complained: "Look at the needlework your girl did. It's not as good as I did when I was a child. Your girl is becoming more and more arrogant and indulgent by you. She just refuses to calm down and study hard. needlework."
"It doesn't matter if she doesn't know how to do needlework. When she grows up, she will marry four or five needlework ladies. Does the granddaughter have to do needlework by herself?"
Xiao Qin'er gave him a blank look, "I can't tell you."
"How are you feeling today?" Liu Yi asked concerned.
Xiao Qin'er smiled and said, "It's good. I didn't vomit or nausea, but the taste has changed. I feel that my mouth feels tasteless when I eat anything."
Liu Yi shook her hand, "If you want to eat, tell the kitchen to do it. We don't lack this money."
Xiao Qin'er smiled.
Not short of money?
Dream it.
She is worrying about money now.
"You said that the four-wheeled carriage is such a good thing, why doesn't the father agree to mass production?"
"What are you thinking?" Liu Yi asked her.
Xiao Qin'er said: "The second sister-in-law came home yesterday and she told me that if your majesty agrees to mass-produce the carriage, the sister-in-law will offer shares to the outside world. The carriage will definitely make a lot of money. I don't know how many people in the capital are asking about this.
I just thought, when my sister-in-law IPOs, I have to take money into a share and save some possessions for the children. Otherwise, relying on your little Juelu, the family would have starved to death. "
Liu Yi laughed at her, "When my sister-in-law was building a house outside Nancheng Gate, I advised you to pay more. As a result, you were very stingy and only took a few thousand taels. Naturally, the dividend was less than others."
Xiao Qin'er bitterly said: "Quit to mention the previous things. Later, my sister-in-law engaged in cement roads, I also participated in the stock, and I can divide the money every year, and the principal has long been earned back. The next few decades will be in vain. With my insight, can you live in a new house?"
"Don't forget that the new house is money from the emperor."
"My father gave money to buy a house, but he didn't give money to renovate it. The house was renovated, and it cost no less than fifty thousand taels for all kinds of decorations, furniture and utensils. The money was all from me, and you didn't give it a penny. "
"You are pregnant now, I won't quarrel with you."
"Then tell me, can a horse-drawn carriage produce energy? I'm still waiting to put in the money."
