Chapter 318 Chonghua Palace "Empty"

In the early morning of the next day, Xiao Jingheng went to practice martial arts early in a refreshed state, but the unlucky Shangguan Jing... almost overslept and missed the time to pay the empress dowager a visit.

She complained all the way to Shou'an Palace, but just as she went out, she saw Xiao Jingheng.

"What's going on?" She stared wide-eyed: "Why are you back? Didn't you go to court?"

"Father didn't go to court today." Xiao Jingheng replied: "The ministers have waited for a long time, just waiting for Qi Zhengrong to come and give a speech. It is said that the Eucharist is not in good condition today, and it will not happen one day."

"Ah?" Shangguan was stunned: "Sick? I haven't heard that there is an imperial doctor, otherwise someone would have reported to us."

"I've already asked Qi Zhengrong in private." Xiao Jingheng shook his head, "It's because I read the memorabilia too late last night, and got up late today."

over slept?This reason is too... No, is it really not sick?Reminiscent of the emperor's diligence in the harem these days, Shangguan Jing is really skeptical.

"Are you sure you're not sick?" She lowered her voice and asked, "Did you ask Qi Zhengrong, where did the emperor rest last night? That concubine served him?"

"I asked." Of course Xiao Jingheng understood what Shangguan Jing meant, and nodded immediately: "But yesterday was the September Yuancheng Festival in early August. It is customary for the father to fast and pray in the Dafu Hall at night, and to rest in the Dafu Hall at night. There should be no concubines who would disturb you easily."

"Fast and pray?" Shangguan Jing was even more puzzled: "Why is it so strange!"

"Qi Zhengrong said so." Xiao Jingheng replied with something in his words.

understood!Shangguan nodded quietly, Qi Zhengrong said so, but the truth is unknown.

"Then does He Baogui know the inside story?" Shangguanjing asked again.

"He Baogui wasn't on duty yesterday." Xiao Jingheng shook his head: "I asked, the father prayed in the Dafu Hall, and no one was left to serve in the hall, so yesterday only Qi Zhengrong was left outside to wait for orders."

"In short, the father's health should be fine. Qi Zhengrong passed on the father's oral order, and asked the three princes and the six officials to wait for the order in the Yanying Hall. Around the hour, the father will summon all the important officials in the imperial study." Xiao Jingheng told Shangguanjing like this: " I’ll accompany you to Shou’an Palace and Weiyang Palace to greet you when I come back. I’m afraid we are not the only ones who have doubts, so let’s take a look first. Around Chenshi, I will go to the Imperial Study Room with the important ministers, and we will know when we see people.”

"Alright!" Shangguan Jing nodded: "Why do you think that after I entered the palace, these things happened one after another?"

"It will be fine in the future." Xiao Jingheng smiled and took his hand: "In the future, there will only be you and our children in this palace, so it must be very clean."

"Forget it!" Shangguan Jing gestured to Chongchong Palace: "Even though our family has a small population, but look, the harem is full right now, and your father's little wives will not have us to help take care of them in the end." Well!"

"It's never too late to worry about it in the future." Xiao Jingheng put his arms around Shangguan Jing's waist and said with a smile: "Right now, this is all Empress Chen's responsibility, and we don't need to worry about it. Don't look at the palace is full of people right now, I'm really waiting for you to hold the seal of the phoenix." On that day, I don’t know how many are left.”

"That's true." Shangguan Jing nodded: "Just fight for favor with them who are so smart and scheming now, harming each other and fighting each other. It's really hard to tell how many will be left."

However, the young couple worried that they would not be able to support this large group of concubines in the future, while there were people who disliked that there were not enough people in the palace.

This person is none other than the Empress Dowager.

The news that the emperor didn't go to the court really quickly spread throughout the six palaces, and everyone didn't know what was going on with the emperor, so send someone to ask Qi Zhengrong... But Qi Zhengrong's mouth was very tight, and he couldn't ask anything. one two Three.

The brain circuits of the concubines are quite the same, and they all ran to the Empress Dowager to inquire about the news, even Empress Chen was no exception.This saves Shangguan Jing another trip to Weiyang Palace.

Seeing the young couple coming in together, the Empress Dowager looked very happy.Of course, the main thing was seeing Xiao Jingheng happy.

However, the young couple saluted the Empress Dowager and Empress Chen, and before they sat down for a while, the old lady started to make trouble.

"It just so happened that both of you are here today, and the queen is also here. The Ai family has something to discuss with you." The empress dowager smiled kindly at Shangguanjing for the first time, which made Shangguanjing feel that something was wrong.

You know, although she used to be a vase granddaughter-in-law of the Huaiyang Palace, she was very popular with the Empress Dowager, but after Xiao Jingheng became the only prince, the old lady's attitude towards her changed drastically. All kinds of dislikes that she is not worthy of her perfect prince and grandson.Ever since she moved into the palace, this old lady hasn't given her any good looks!

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon. Shangguan Jing smiled slightly, but didn't say anything, waiting for Empress Chen to speak first.

"Mother, please tell me." Empress Chen replied with a slight bow.

"Xiao Jiu is not young anymore," the empress dowager said with a smile: "When the emperor was at his age, the eldest princess was already born, right? You don't know if you are in a hurry to Aijia, but Aijia is eager to hold a grandson." Woolen cloth!"

give birth?Shangguan Jing frowned slightly.If it is really easy to give birth, then it will be easy to handle.Although from the point of view of a modern person like her, it is a bit early to have a child in the [-]th or [-]th, but she does as the Romans do, and she has to abide by the social rules wherever she goes. At her age, in the Zhou Dynasty, she should indeed be a mother , so Shangguanjing is already mentally prepared to give birth!
Now it's just the empress dowager urging her to be okay, but in the future Xiao Jingheng will really be crowned prince, and the courtiers might worry about her stomach.

But since the old lady spoke so solemnly, it must not be that simple.In the eyes of these ancient people, the crown prince's backyard was empty, and there was only one woman to help give birth. The risk was too high. Shangguanjing had already guessed what the empress dowager wanted to say.

"What the mother said is true." Empress Chen obviously guessed what the empress dowager wanted to say, she glanced at Shangguan Jing, and replied respectfully: "The prince is indeed not young, and he should have children .”

"But, hurry back, but there is only the princess and concubine in Chonghua Palace right now, and it is empty. If we just point at the belly of the concubine, she will be under too much pressure," the empress dowager continued: "So I thought, before and after the Mid-Autumn Festival, when the sweet-scented osmanthus in the palace is in full bloom, it's better to hold a flower viewing feast, invite all the noble ladies of the right age, and let the prince see for himself, whoever he likes, he will accept it." It's good. Someone can share the pressure of the princess."

Heh... Shangguan Jing looked up at the Empress Dowager.Is it for her own good to co-author and give her husband a woman?
　---Here is the dividing line of the Empress Dowager's plan--
　　In fact, for feudal dynasties, heirs are very important, and the main duty of a tool woman is to give birth to a baby. Therefore, most of the Dazhou natives, including the empress dowager, and many courtiers, feel that as a prince, they should marry more It is very important to have a few women and more women to help give birth to avoid the inheritance crisis.

　　It's a pity that Xiao Jingjing is a modern person, so she refuses to accept this!

　　Thanks to Yun Qingqing and Perak for the daily dried fish! !Thanks to Liu Runyu's mother for the reward and support! !
