Chapter 964 Returning to the Palace

Although his mouth was cold and sarcastic, the little emperor took the teacher's suggestion to heart.

He recruited officials from the Ministry of Rites, revealed this meaning, and asked who in the clan was more suitable for adoption.

The officials of the Ministry of Rites were very happy when they heard this, and immediately listed several young clan children, and emphasized that the selection is based on blood relationship, and it is best for His Majesty to choose the sons of his own brothers' families as his successor.

That is, the little emperor's own nephew.

The late emperor had many heirs. Although the princes lost a lot in the battle, there are still a few alive, especially the three kings and five kings, who have more than one son.

After the officials of the Ministry of Rites made a list, they reminded the emperor that the regent also had a son.

In terms of closeness, it must be the regent's son who is closest to him.

Gu Qizhen stared at a list of names on the list, touched his chin and smacked his lips: "Let me think about it, think about it."

Fine.

It doesn't matter who it is, as long as the little emperor is willing to establish an heir.

When the courtiers got the news, they finally felt more at ease.

Although the situation has subsided a bit, it is still undercurrent.

Since Northwest triumphantly returned to Beijing, the Prince Regent has not appeared for half a month.

Even the emperor did not come to see him.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation.

There was a lot of discussion in private, and there were even rumors that the regent was seriously injured in the battle, and he would not heal for a long time, and his life would not be long.

If not, how could he, a regent, not show his face for a long time and not manage the court affairs?

This is so abnormal.

Therefore, the rumors intensified.

On the way back to the palace, Ying Ning heard a lot of gossip.

When they arrived at the gate of the palace, several members of the door also gathered together to mutter, and when they saw the carriage of the princess, they hurriedly dispersed to salute.

Jin Shu helped Ying Ning get out of the carriage, and scolded: "If the concubine is not here for a few days, you will have no rules! Eunuch Chen can't control you anymore? I will go back to Eunuch Chen later and send you all away!"

Menzi hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy, saying that he would never dare to do this again, and begged the princess to give them a chance to reform.

Jin Shu's words were just to frighten them, and it's not enough to drive them away, but necessary punishment measures are indispensable.

"Princess, let's go in first."

Jin Shu glared at the doormen, and helped Yingning to go in.

As the first-class maid in charge of the concubine, Jin Shu's prestige among the servants of the palace is almost as high as that of Chen Hong because of his prudence, appropriateness and fairness.

Sometimes when servants encounter difficulties, they dare not approach Chen Hong. Knowing that she is easy to talk to, they come to beg her.

As long as it can help, Jin Shu will help.

She did this to gain the support and trust of the princess among the servants.

As soon as he entered the second gate, Zhelan hurried over and said, "Wangfei, you are back."

"Is there anything urgent in the mansion?" Yingning asked.

"Master Feng Jing from Sanhua Nunnery came to the door in person just now, saying that something is wrong with the Empress Dowager."

"What's wrong?"

"Became crazy and confused." Zhe Lan whispered, "Master Feng Jing said that the queen mother doesn't seem to recognize anyone."

Ying Ning frowned and asked, "Where is Mrs. Feng Jing?"

"The master originally asked to see the prince and concubine, but the prince closed the door and didn't see anyone. You are not in the mansion, princess. After Feng Jing told me, she left." Zhelan explained, "Feng Jing is too courageous. Little, I dare not take responsibility, I am afraid that something will happen to the queen mother, please tell me to the prince and princess, send someone to see the queen mother, or simply bring her back."
