Chapter 725
Since Wu Shun entered the palace, Wu Meiniang became more and more dissatisfied, so that Wu Meiniang had been in the palace for a few days, but Wu Meiniang and Wu Shun also met a few times, but they never spoke seriously until this day.

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is the Lantern Festival.

As the crown prince, Li Ke was ordered to enter the palace to accompany Li Shimin to the banquet, and deal with the clan's children and officials, while Wu Meiniang, as the princess and the main wife of the East Palace, naturally had to make some appearances during the Shangyuan Festival, otherwise it would be unavoidable to be criticized. After speaking, a banquet was also held in Cheng'en Hall, and the prince's side concubine Langri Linzhi, Liangdi Wushun, and Chenghui Dan'er were invited here.

Although Li Ke is the crown prince, the inner courtyard has never been prosperous. Except for a confidante, Ashinayun who is far away in Mobei, and an empress of Xiao Liang, Xiao Yuexian who is hiding in Luoyang, the rest are all here. .

And among these three people, Langri Linzhi is the princess of Tubo, who was sent to Chang'an by Tubo for peace, and she cannot shake Wu Meiniang's position as the main wife.Dan'er was born as Li Ke's personal maid, and Li Ke trusted him very much, but Dan'er has always been aloof from the world, and she has no threat to Wu Meiniang, so among the three, it is her elder sister Wu Shun who Wu Meiniang really wants to beat.

Now Wu Meiniang doesn't know whether Wushun has already coveted the position of the royal family, but as far as Wushun's actions are concerned, Wu Meiniang is already a little worried and displeased.

But to deal with Wushun, Wu Meiniang is not completely helpless, just within these two days, Wu Meiniang also thought of a way to deal with Wushun, and it was a way that no one else could blame.

When Wu Meiniang hosted the banquet, she first made a grand appearance, and after the tricycle dance, she slowly revealed her purpose.

Wu Meiniang sat on the main seat, waved her hand, and signaled the dancers in the hall to step down, and then said to the three of them: "Today, there are two things for the palace to hold a banquet in the Cheng'en Hall. One is that we sisters cannot see each other often, and We need to take advantage of these auspicious days to get in touch with each other, so as not to cause trouble; second, I have something else I want to discuss with you, please help me to make up your mind."

Among the three, Langri Lingzhi is the most forthright, and she has long lost interest in watching the music and dancing in these teaching workshops. She wished she could go back sooner. When Wu Meiniang spoke, she asked first, "I don't know what's going on. The princess just said what she said."

Wu Meiniang said: "The prince is virtuous, busy with state affairs, and never cared about himself, so the inner house has always been unsatisfactory. Not only compared with the children of the clan, but also compared with the nobles in the court. It is a good thing that the prince does not indulge in women, and it is also a blessing for the country. , but as the Crown Princess, I must consider the prosperity of the Crown Prince's heirs."

As a prince, as a state reserve, Li Ke does not have many heirs. Except for Xiao Yuexian who gave birth to Li Ke, a son and a daughter who are not inconvenient to be given titles, only Wu Meiniang has two sons for Li Ke, and Dan'er is Li Ke. Li Ke has a daughter, and Li Ke has no other heirs, which is naturally not enough for the heir who will inherit the throne in the future.

In fact, there are only two reasons for this situation. One is that Li Ke himself was in a foreign town in the early years, and now he is busy with state affairs and has no intention of caring for others. No concubines.

In the past, apart from Wu Meiniang herself, there were only Langri Linzhi and Dan'er in the entire East Palace inner house. These two people did not pose any threat to Wu Meiniang. The situation has changed, and Wu Meiniang's thoughts have also changed.

Wu Meiniang was talking, but the three people sitting below did not interrupt. After a while, she raised her eyes and looked around the three people below, and then continued: "I want to be the master and give the prince some more concubines. Room, do you think it's okay?"

Facing the threat brought by Wu Shun's entry into the palace, Wu Meiniang was also a little distressed at first, but after these two days, Wu Meiniang figured it out and thought of a way.

Li Ke's inner house is not prosperous, which is the reason why Li Shimin bestowed Wu Shun on Li Ke. Naturally, Wu Meiniang could not refuse it.

The reason why Wu Shun was able to pose a threat to Wu Meiniang was because Li Ke's inner house was not happy, and only Wu Meiniang and Wu Shun could try for the second place. Wu Meiniang represented the main room, and Wu Shun represented the concubine. I'm having a headache about this.

But when Li Ke had more side concubines, Wu Meiniang was still the crown princess, representing the main room, which still accounted for half, but Wu Shun changed, and Wu Shun became one of Li Ke's many side rooms. Half of the doting will be divided among many people, so Li Ke's doting on her will naturally decrease, so what can Wu Shun use to compete with Wu Meiniang?

Wu Shun is very smart, after listening to Wu Meiniang's words, he still doesn't know what Wu Meiniang means, Wu Shun is not afraid of Wu Meiniang fighting with her, that's what he is afraid of.

Once Li Ke has more concubines, Li Ke will definitely divide his favor. At that time, what Wu Shun will compete for is not Wu Meiniang, but Li Ke's concubines. She will compete with those concubines for Li Ke's favor.Wu Meiniang's methods are unique, she didn't even need to do it herself, she just lured others in to deal with Wu Shun, and Wu Shun was already exhausted.

Wu Shun's complexion was obviously much uglier than before. Wu Meiniang sat at the top, looked at Wu Shun on the side, and asked with a smile: "I want to take a concubine for the prince, it is also out of public interest, but look at sister's face. Not good, but do you have any objections to this matter?"

Although Wu Shun was favored by Li Ke, she was only a concubine in name. How could she dictate to Li Ke about taking a concubine? , how could I have any objection. The reason why I look ugly is just because I was too greedy and drank too much."

The so-called excessive drinking is just a saying on the lips of Wu Shun.Wu Meiniang knew Wu Shun's drinking capacity. From the beginning to the end, Wu Shun drank no more than three glasses of fruit wine. In terms of Wu Shun's drinking capacity, it was really nothing. The one who really alarmed Wu Shun was Wu Meiniang who gave Li Ke Concubine words.

Although Wu Shun is only 24, he is still young, but if Li Ke takes concubines, those who can enter the East Palace must be young girls in their twenties and eighth age. They are all rich and powerful, daughters of aristocratic families, how can she compete with them again, and even if she After the fight, where would I have the spare energy to fight with Wu Meiniang again.

After all, Wu Meiniang is the Crown Princess, no matter how many people come to Li Ke's inner courtyard, she will still be the Crown Princess, but Wu Shun is not necessarily the case.

Seeing Wu Shun's reaction, Wu Meiniang felt complacent, and asked Lang Ri Lin Zhi and Dan Er: "Where are the princess and Cheng Hui, what do you think of what I said?"

Dan'er has a temperament of not fighting or grabbing, and Langri Linzhi is a princess of Tubo, so she doesn't care about these things. They will not argue with Wu Meiniang because of this matter, and they both agreed: "As Wu Liangdi said, this is a good thing. We have no objection."

Wu Meiniang said with a smile: "That's good. Today, I will go to the palace and report this matter to the Queen Mother. Presumably the Queen Mother also agrees with this matter."
