The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 337
The Crown Princess Cao Fengtong went to the Jiaofang Hall to greet Empress Cao and returned, and saw Zhao Bi in her bedroom.

It was rare for Zhao Bi to come to her place, Cao Fengtong was overjoyed, and hurriedly went up to greet her, and warmly greeted her husband.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Bi questioned with a cold face: "Let me ask you, why did you refuse Zhou Cainu's proposal to have a banquet with his wife in the East Palace?"

Cao Fengtong saw Zhao Bi's gloomy face suddenly mentioning this, she was stunned for a long time before she came to her senses, and explained: "It is true that Zhou Cainv proposed to use Shen's to win over the Duke of Zhen and the eldest princess. It's a good idea, but the Queen Mother had already planned this, but she just wanted to plan it slowly. Now that His Highness's every move is being watched by those courtiers, I think it's inappropriate for us to invite Mrs. Shen into the East Palace rashly."

What Cao Fengtong said was reasonable, but Zhao Bi said furiously after hearing this: "What's wrong, I see that you only care about hiding yourself, and you don't want to think about you at all."

Although Cao Fengtong was well aware of Zhao Bi's moody temperament, she did not expect him to lose his temper with her because of such a trivial matter. She looked at Zhao Bi suspiciously, and argued, "His Highness's absence from the palace banquet for no reason is attracting the attention of the officials. I wrote a letter of impeachment, why did we have to make extra trouble at this juncture? If those people found out that we deliberately win over the family members of important ministers in the East Palace, wouldn’t it be more to blame others? I think that at this juncture, it is better for us to keep a low profile , Your Highness"

Before Cao Fengtong finished talking, Zhao Bi interrupted impatiently: "It's just a banquet for a married woman, how could so many things be involved."

As he said that, he rolled his eyes at Cao Fengtong, and said displeasedly: "This kind of friendship should be shared by you, the crown princess, for the orphan, not only did you not have this intention, but now Cainu next week wants to share the sorrow for the orphan, you are trying to shirk it in every possible way. "

"Hmph! It seems that you don't have the ability to sit in the position of the princess."

This is a very heavy word.

Cao Fengtong looked at Zhao Bi in disbelief, and said timidly, "Your Highness, we are husband and wife, how can you say such a thing."

Zhao Bi glanced at Cao Fengtong, snorted coldly and said, "Don't you think that with the backing of your mother, Gu really can't do anything to you. If you don't invite Mrs. Shen to the East Palace this time, Gu will go and follow you in person. Father, please order to abolish you."

"Your Highness——"

Without waiting for Cao Fengtong to express his feelings, Zhao Bi just flung his sleeves and left without looking back.

Cao Fengtong glanced at Zhao Bi's ruthless back, and fell to the ground sadly, tears of grievance flowing down his cheeks.

Her personal female officer stepped forward to help her up, and helped her analyze: "Princess, don't worry, Your Highness suddenly cares so much about inviting Mrs. Li's family son into the palace. From my point of view, there must be a reason."

As the so-called bystander knows, Cao Fengtong suddenly came to her senses after hearing this. She wiped away her tears, frowned, and guessed: "Could it be that Zhou Cainu said something to His Highness that provoked His Highness like this?"

For Zhao Bi's abnormal behavior, the female officer was also puzzled, and she echoed, "This matter was brought up by Zhou Cainv, if it is said that she played tricks on it and took the opportunity to provoke you and Your Highness, there must be something wrong. Maybe, it's just that His Highness is so eager to invite Mrs. Shen into the palace all of a sudden, but it's also a bit strange."

Cao Fengtong sighed and said: "I think he is also forced by the current situation, and now I am afraid that only relying on the influence of the eldest princess and the Duke of Zhen's government can His Highness secure the position of heir apparent."

The female officer tentatively said: "Then what are you going to do? Are you really going to invite Mrs. Shen to the East Palace? Now those officials are watching His Highness closely, should you discuss this matter with the Queen."

Cao Fengtong waved his hands and said: "Your Highness has always been tired of being disciplined by my aunt, if I report everything to my aunt, it will only make Your Highness and even me tired of it."

She made up her mind and said: "Go get a name card, I will edit the book myself, and invite Mrs. Shen to come to the East Palace."

In the Luo'an Hall of the Duke of Zhen's Mansion, Aunt Ju was flipping through her notebook and chatting with the Eldest Princess that she was going to pay homage to the late Empress Li in a while.

It was reported that the maid entered the room, and said with a hint of anxiety in her tone: "His Royal Highness, there was news from the palace just now, saying that His Majesty suddenly fainted."

The eldest princess quickly asked: "Do you know if it is serious? What did the imperial doctor say? How is Your Majesty now?"

The maid replied: "I heard that His Majesty fainted suddenly, and the imperial physician is doing his best to treat him. It is not known what will happen now."

When the eldest princess heard the bad news, she was so frightened that she almost couldn't stand still. Fortunately, she was supported by Aunt Ju: "Princess, don't worry, your majesty has always been healthy and will be fine."

The eldest princess stroked her chest and said, "Get ready for the car and go to the palace!"

A group of important ministers, concubines, princes and princesses waited outside Emperor Ming's bedroom until the sun was setting, Li Dequan, the head of the court, tried to sweat out of it with his cuffs.

The crowd immediately gathered around, and Li Dequan said to the crowd, "Be at peace, everyone, Your Highness has woken up."

After hearing this, everyone had different expressions.

Although Empress Cao had a gratified look on her face, she couldn't hide the deep disappointment in her eyes.

If Emperor Ming left like this, wouldn't her crown prince son be able to ascend the throne smoothly? I don't want to wake up again, how can this not disappoint her.

Prince Zhao Bi didn't have the city mansion like his mother, and when he heard that his emperor Lao Tzu woke up, his expression was surprisingly ugly.

Concubine Meng and King Jin heaved a long sigh of relief when they heard the news, one murmured with clasped hands, and the other was so excited that tears almost filled their eyes.

After all, the Crown Prince hadn't got it yet, so they naturally didn't want Emperor Ming to wake up.

There are only three remaining princesses, the seventh princess is locked in the palace, the eighth princess is insane, and only Qingluan is guarding outside the palace. She doesn't care about her father's well-being, and regrets not asking her father earlier The emperor sent her down to Li Ling to be his concubine, and when she heard that Emperor Ming had woken up, her first thought was to take advantage of her father's sobriety and hurry up to find a way to beg her father for this most important matter.

Among the dense group of people, the only one who really cared about Emperor Ming was the eldest princess.

Li Dequan talked perfunctorily with everyone, then looked at the eldest princess and said, "Your Highness, Your Majesty, please go in and talk."

When everyone heard this, their eyes all focused on the eldest princess.

At this time, Emperor Ming announced to see the eldest princess alone, he must have important matters to discuss.

Then, the most important thing is nothing more than the position of the crown prince.

The people outside the hall couldn't help feeling nervous again, Concubine Meng was the first to react, and hurriedly stepped forward to kneel down to the eldest princess and said courteously: "Sister Huang, let the concubine go in with you."

Before the Eldest Princess could speak, Empress Cao came forward, rolled her eyes at Concubine Meng Gui and said, "The one the Holy Majesty announced is Elder Sister Huang, Concubine Meng is like this, I'm afraid it's against the rules."
