After receiving the news of Feng Xuan's death, the queen was overjoyed. The biggest threat right now is lifted, and the other princes are doing nothing, and it won't take a few years for Feng Xuanming to succeed.
At this time, she was waiting for Du Qingheng who had been summoned to enter the palace.
"Lan Cui, is this palace getting old?" The queen sat in front of the mirror and suddenly twisted a white hair. She is only in her 30s this year, and she has gray hair.
Lan Cui lowered his head, "The Queen Empress is in her prime, how can she grow old?"
"It's the prime year... Yes, this palace is in its prime, and the emperor is also in its prime." The Queen said with emotion.
The emperor is only forty this year. When Feng Xuanming takes the throne, how old she will be. She squeezed her fist secretly and said, "Is there a newcomer in the palace recently?"
"There are three new masters in the palace, one of them is the little girl of the general political envoy. Because of his high official position, he sealed a concubine and gave the title Xian." Lan Cui rubbed his shoulders for the queen and said.
The movement of the queen's hand stopped, "As soon as he comes, he will be sealed?"
It was the first one to enter the palace, except for a few "old people" who were in the mansion at the beginning.
She couldn't help but frown, and said, "Although the official position of the general political envoy is still high, but it is only a third-rank, how can she be sealed as soon as she comes? And also give a special title?"
"The beauty of Niang Niang Niang will make the emperor pleased, so the emperor should pay special attention to it." Lan Cui didn't dare to tell the truth. Recently, the queen was recuperating and knew little about things in the palace.
Because of Xian's entry into the palace, the emperor left the entire harem in the cold. Many masters have been making trouble many times, and the emperor even sent a nobleman to the cold palace because of the criticism from the harem.
The queen was stunned for a long time, and said, "Lan Cui, does the emperor think that there are fewer princes in the palace so that newcomers enter the palace?"
"Don't worry about the empress, the emperor is indeed missing a little bit compared with the sons of the first emperor. As long as our prince is still there, others will not be able to pass you." Lan Cui comforted the queen softly.
The queen shook her head and said, "Things in this palace change rapidly. If it is really like you said, this Xian is so spoiled, it is impossible to guarantee that she will not give birth to a prince, seal a noble concubine, concubine, or even... .. Royal Concubine." If she is really named the Royal Concubine, how can she be the Queen?
At this time, the maid outside came to report, "The empress, the princess is already waiting in the main hall."
The queen nodded and sighed, "Let's go."
She was very satisfied with the princess, but she did not know why, from entering the prince's mansion until now, she has been nothing. I don't know if it was because of the minor birth that hurt my body.
...
It has been a week since Du Xuechun and Feng Xuanche moved to the mansion, and the mansion was well-organized by Mingying and Wangchuan, and she was free.
However, staying here in Yangzhou is not a solution after all. If they wait until Feng Xuanming ascends the throne, they will be like turtles in the urn.
Feng Xuanche went out early and returned late recently, and even Du Xuechun was cold.
She was sitting in the courtyard, sighing.
"Mingying, what are you doing lately?" Du Xuechun pondered, Feng Xuanche came back recently, it was already night, and he never told himself what he did during the day. This made Du Xuechun a little confused.
Mingying shook her head, "Master has been a bit busy these days."
At night, Feng Xuan Che returned, taking off his clothes again and preparing to rest. When he was about to lie down, he was stopped by Du Xuechun.
"What's the matter?" Feng Xuan looked at Du Xuechun suspiciously, and when he saw Du Xuechun's eyes there were some tears, and his heart suddenly panicked.
Du Xuechun was silent and did not say anything. Just holding Feng Xuan Che's clothes gently with one hand. Feng Xuan Che took her into his arms and patted her on the back.
"What have you done in the past few days?" Du Xuechun asked aloud after a long while.
Feng Xuanche was stunned, "Recently, I have been to the scenery, learning about the situation in Beijing and the current situation."
"You come back at night, don't hug me to sleep..." The next second, Du Xuechun's words made Feng Xuanche laugh out loud. Seeing the small face of the person in front of him flushed red, Feng Xuanche smiled, "Because of this?"
Du Xuechun nodded. In the past, no matter how late Feng Xuanche came back, he would hug her to sleep. When I came back now, I spread my hands and fell asleep.
"When I went to the scenery, the scenery brought a lot of insiders to meet. These are all reliable officials in the DPRK. It is inevitable that I will have a drink, and I will smell of alcohol on my body for fear that it will smoke you." Feng Xuanche was not annoyed, comfort Tao.
Only then did Du Xuechun notice that the man in front of him did smell of alcohol. She looked at Feng Xuanche and asked, "Is that true?"
"Yeah." Although it is in Yangzhou, if you want to seize the prostitute, you must be familiar with the situation in Beijing.
What we know now is that the Metropolitan Procuratorate and Yushi are the confidants of the prince, and even the servants on the left and right have gradually joined the prince’s camp. These people grasp the lifeblood of the entire court, but it takes a lot of effort.
"Then I will forgive you." Du Xuechun muttered, and I don't know why, she has been overwhelmed lately, and her mental state is a little bad.
Perhaps because I came here, there was nothing to do and I was a little worried.
Looking at Du Xuechun's appearance, Feng Xuanche couldn't help but kiss her on her cheek after all, and asked, "Just forgive me? Don't you get angry?"
This is just a joke. Du Xuechun gave him a sideways look and said, "If you come back again tomorrow, I will give you a break and find a good man."
"Well, well, the concubine knows that he was wrong." Feng Xuan Che joked.
Seeing Feng Xuanche behaved like this, Du Xuechun's heart was less angry.
"That said, how are your preparations recently?"
"Because the prince has a solid foundation, I only have a few confidantes here. They are all of the second and third grades. Compared with the prince, these are nothing at all. Therefore, in the past few years, I will slowly plan for The confidant of the prince has the chance to win."
Du Xuechun nodded, only to feel a little relieved.
At this time, Du Qingheng had been waiting in the main hall for a long time. She could probably guess the purpose of the queen calling her into the palace today, she couldn't help but stroked her flat belly and sighed slightly.
When she saw the bright yellow coming, she stood up and said, "I have seen the emperor."
The queen sat down in the front position, and then said to Du Qingheng, "What's wrong with the Prince's Mansion recently?"
Du Qingheng shook his head, "There is nothing unusual in the mansion recently. His Royal Highness is busy with government affairs. After the death of Prince Yi, military affairs fall on His Royal Highness's body. You have to worry more about it."
The queen looked at Du Qingheng and asked, "Then there is nothing unusual about your stomach?"
Hearing this, Du Qingheng was taken aback, only to understand what the queen was asking. Suddenly, her face became hot, "Not yet."
"As the prince's concubine, you should have given birth to the prince sooner." The queen's understatement made Du Qingheng's vest cool. After marrying in the mansion for a long time, her stomach has not moved. There are three so-called unfilial piety, and no queen is the greatest. Even if the queen likes herself, she won't be relieved in terms of offspring.
