Bengong is actually a therapist!

Chapter 96
At the time of national mourning, even Yikang Palace can't make any tricks. At most, it's just a whole vegetarian chicken, vegetarian duck and vegetarian Dongpo meat.

Emperor Yan Zheng said softly, "My aunt is an elder, why should she be so simple?"

The noble concubine smiled modestly: "Although I am an elder, I am only the late emperor's concubine after all. How can I surpass the national mourning system?"

To put it bluntly, no matter how expensive the imperial concubine is, she is not the empress dowager after all.

The imperial concubine paused slightly, and then said again: "What's more, now that Concubine Lan Gui and Fang Jieyu are pregnant, I have the right to eat fast and pray to Buddha for a few months, if I can get the emperor a pair of princes, it will be worth it. "

Yan Zheng's gentle face suddenly became a little unnatural, he couldn't help thinking, now that I have hope, I don't look forward to the heirs born by others, but I hope that there will be two princesses, and I will inevitably die in the future necessary disputes.Then suddenly thought that Wang Shu seemed to have said earlier that he was afraid of pain so he didn't want to be favored and have children... His heart couldn't help but twitch.But after thinking about it, it was just Wang Shu's earlier excuse to avoid being favored. Didn't Wang Shu never mention the matter of childbearing again when he talked about conditions earlier?A man and a woman are very good, and they are still young. After consummating the house, it will be a matter of time before they become pregnant.Wang Shu loves childish children, so why would he not want to have children.

Thinking of this, I just felt a little relieved.

Speaking of the two pregnant concubines, Concubine Xiang also hurriedly said: "Concubine Lan Gui's fetal image is getting stronger day by day, and her appetite is getting better, but Fang Jieyu is still complaining about morning sickness."

Yan Zheng suddenly looked unhappy: "She is pretending to be hypocritical, don't pay attention to it."

The emperor didn't like Fang Jieyu's petty temper very much, so Concubine Xiang was not too surprised, and only said "yes".

However, Yue Wangshu felt very uncomfortable when he heard it, and couldn't help whispering: "The month of Fang Jieyu is already past the month when she is prone to pregnancy and vomiting. Her behavior like this is just to make the emperor feel sorry for her. There is no need to be angry."

By the way, since Empress Meng passed away, has the emperor visited these two pregnant women?

As soon as Yue Wangshu's words came out, Yan Zheng was sullen, but the Concubine Gui couldn't help but show some relief.

"Pure noble concubine has a virtuous character, so it's no wonder that Empress Xianning praised you so much." The noble concubine nodded slightly, no wonder her status was so promoted, "With you serving the emperor, the Ai family can feel more at ease."

Empress Xianning was the posthumous title conceived by the courtiers for Empress Meng, and it was worthy of the name.

Yan Zheng's face remained motionless, he coughed lightly and said, "Let's eat first."

In addition, although the noble concubine is an elder, she still needs to sit directly facing the emperor in the south. The noble concubine and concubine Xiang sit on both sides, and Yue Wangshu sits next to concubine Xiang.

Eating without talking, sleeping without talking, An Ansheng finished the meal.

Without meat, Yue Wangshu ate without breaking etiquette.

After lunch, and having tea in the Flower Hall of Yikang Palace, the Concubine Gui then slowly got to the point: "Since the death of Empress Xianning, Concubine Xiang has been taking care of the general affairs, but there has never been any mistakes. "

Concubine Xiang was nervous, she quickly lowered her head and said, "Your Majesty has few concubines, and the sisters have given me some face, so naturally there will be no big trouble."

Yan Zheng remained silent, only looking at the noble concubine.

The imperial concubine was a little embarrassed, but she still bit the bullet and said: "But after all, there are some names that are not right."

Yan Zheng said bluntly: "Auntie has something to say, but she can say it directly."

The imperial concubine hurriedly said: "Emperor, don't get me wrong. Empress Xianning's national funeral has not yet passed. I don't mean that. I just want to ask the emperor if he intends to make Concubine Jin Xiang a noble concubine. This noble concubine is the head of concubines in the harem. Palace affairs can also be justified."

This suggestion of the Concubine Gui is really wonderful.Once promoted to the imperial concubine, it will overwhelm everyone in the Six Palaces. If there is a discussion about successors in the future, the imperial concubine will naturally be the first choice.

Yan Zheng smiled suddenly, "The Concubine Gui is really impatient."

Don't look at the emperor talking and laughing at Yanyan, but the titles have all changed!

The imperial concubine's heart jumped, and she couldn't help laughing, "Except for Empress Xianning, only Concubine Xiang has served the emperor for the longest time. If you want to establish a noble concubine, it should be her, right?"

As she said that, Concubine Gui quickly added: "Of course Concubine Rong deserves it too, but firstly Concubine Rong is young after all, and secondly, she must have no such intention."

Yan Zheng couldn't help being annoyed, of course Concubine Rong had no such intentions, but I had no such intentions towards Concubine Xiang!

Yan Zheng didn't want to break his face, but his tone was already a little stiff: "There is only one seat for noble concubine, and it is unfair to give it to Concubine Xiang or Concubine Rong."

The imperial concubine was speechless for a moment.

Seeing this, Concubine Xiang hurriedly stood up and gave her a blessing, "It's my concubine who has taken the liberty, please forgive me, Your Majesty."

Emperor Yan Zheng waved his hand, "It's good to take care of palace affairs, don't think about what you have."

After saying this, the emperor walked away in a huff.

Only the hall was left silent.

Yue Wangshu glanced at Concubine Gui, and then Concubine Xiang, feeling relieved: "The concubine is retiring first."

After Yue Wangshu withdrew, the Concubine Gui couldn't help but said, "What does the emperor mean by that last sentence?"

Concubine Xiang said sadly: "The emperor probably has no intention of establishing a successor, aunt...you are too impatient."

The noble concubine sighed: "The Ai family just mentioned the title of noble concubine."

Concubine Xiang smiled wryly: "Your majesty is so smart, how can you not guess what you want?"——The noble concubine is just a ladder to the empress's position.

"The emperor will not let his concubine be higher than concubine Rong, nor will concubine Rong be higher than concubine Rong." For the rest of her life, she will only be a concubine Xiang, "Auntie, don't mention this matter in the future, it will only annoy the emperor." .”

The imperial concubine was suddenly a little unhappy.

Concubine Xiang smiled wryly and said, "I don't have a son, so why do I want to be a descendant?" It would be a lie if she said that she didn't have this thought in her heart, but Concubine Xiang didn't have too much obsession with being a descendant.There is a bit of the idea of ​​​​my luck and loss of my life.

The imperial concubine said angrily: "You can't say that. It is because you have no children, but it is cheaper. After all, Concubine Rong is young, and she can give birth to a prince in the future. Cheng Zhen, who has the adopted son of the Empress Yuan, will be indispensable in the future. A fight. An elderly concubine who has no children is the most suitable to be a queen."

Concubine Xiang said quietly: "In the eyes of the emperor, I am afraid that it would be safer to leave the post in vain. In this way, all the sons are born from concubines, so they can choose the worthy to stand."

The imperial concubine sighed: "I am afraid that this palace will choose a virtuous crown prince. If a virtuous crown prince is established in the future, how can the mother of the crown prince be more expensive than the mother? This is why my sister became the empress." ! When that day really comes, what else will you do?"

Concubine Xiang couldn't help but smiled wryly again, "One day, I'm afraid it will be the day when I will be a noble concubine."

"You can still laugh!" Gui Taifei glared at her good niece.

Concubine Xiang was silent for a few breaths, and then said in a low voice: "Who called me Fu Bo, Lin'er died young, and there is only one daughter under her knees."

When mentioning the eldest son of the emperor who died young, the imperial concubine also sighed endlessly. If Lin'er was still alive, the emperor would not have walked away today.

Concubine Xiang comforted again: "Aunt, don't worry too much, the future successor will definitely belong to the mother of the crown prince. In all likelihood, it will be Concubine Rong, Concubine Lan...or pure concubine, let's see who is lucky for them It's just deeper. The three of them are still on good terms with me, and they won't treat me and my sister-in-law badly in the future."

The noble concubine just sighed and said nothing.

Yanqing Hall.

The conversation between the imperial concubine and concubine Xiang's aunt and nephew has been conveyed to His Majesty the emperor verbatim.

Yan Zheng nodded slightly: "Concubine Xiang is quite sensible."

It's best to be so natural. If it's not necessary, I don't want too many people to know about Wang Shu's secret.
