The ministers begged me to ascend the throne

Chapter 259 Liang Zhaoyi Promoted to Concubine Liang
It has been two or three days since the fourth prince was given a marriage by the emperor, but the second good thing that the emperor said has not been announced for a long time. The ministers feel that there is no second good thing at all, and the emperor is purely to amuse them.

In Changding Palace, the Fourth Prince was having lunch with Concubine Li.

Concubine Li personally cooked a table of dishes that the Fourth Prince loved to eat on weekdays.She picked up a few more pieces of meat and put them into the fourth prince's bowl, and said softly, "Eat more."

"Concubine Xie, concubine mother, you should also eat more." The fourth prince also picked up a few pieces of meat and put them in Concubine Li's bowl, "Concubine mother, you should eat more meat on weekdays."

Concubine Li has been worshiping the Buddha for many years, and then she is a vegetarian most of the time, and rarely eats meat.On weekdays, Concubine Li would only eat meat when attending important banquets, and would not eat meat at other times.

Concubine Li would naturally eat the meat her son picked up.

"Mother and concubine, the tenth brother said that people should eat more meat, not eating meat is not good for the body." The fourth prince told Concubine Li what he heard from Zhao Yao, "Women who don't eat meat will not only lose weight." Hair will grow old quickly."

Hearing this, Pin Li paused for a moment, and couldn't help being stunned.

Qiu Sang thought of the fact that Concubine Li had lost a lot of hair these years, and her face became very anxious and heavy.She hurriedly said: "Mother, you can't just be a vegetarian in the future, you have to eat meat every day, otherwise your..." She didn't dare to talk about her hair, for fear of angering the empress Li.

Concubine Li didn't expect that the reason for her hair loss was that she didn't eat meat, she thought it was because of getting old.

"Okay, I will eat more meat in the future."

Hearing what Concubine Li said, the Fourth Prince felt relieved.

"Are there a lot of people looking for you in the past few days?" Li Bin asked.

The fourth prince nodded slightly, and said: "Yes, there are many." Since the father gave him the daughter of General Lu in marriage, many ministers wanted to support him. "I refused."

Hearing his son's answer, Li Bin was not surprised at all.If it was changed before, she supported her son to do so, but now she disagrees.

"Yun'er, you can't reject people thousands of miles away like before."

After hearing this, the fourth prince stopped what he was doing, and looked up at Concubine Li in puzzlement.

"Why?"

Concubine Li put down the bowls and chopsticks in her hands, and said to the fourth prince with a serious expression: "Why did the emperor marry General Lu's daughter to you?"

The fourth prince was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he understood what Concubine Li meant.

"Father wants me to come forward?"

"Since you know it in your heart, why did you reject those ministers?" The fourth prince was extremely intelligent and mature since he was a child, and he hardly made Concubine Li worry about it.

The fourth prince frowned slightly and said: "Mother, I don't want to show up now."

"Yun'er, you should know in your heart that this is not something you want or not." Concubine Li understood his son's mood, and comforted him gently, "You are about to become an adult, even if you don't have that idea, the ministers will not let you go You. Besides, do you think the ministers and the prince will believe you?"

The fourth prince did not speak.

"You are not of age, His Royal Highness, His Royal Highness, and the ministers will not take you seriously, but now that you are about to become an adult, they will no longer ignore you." Li Concubine knew in her heart that the Fourth Prince was indeed interested in that seat for the time being. He has no idea, but when he becomes an adult, things will not develop as he wished, "If nothing else, your grandparents' family will not let you go on like this."

The fourth prince remained silent.

"The emperor asked you to come forward, which means that the emperor values ​​you very much, and this is also a test for you." Li Pin's tone became very serious, "Yun'er, you cannot refuse the emperor's trial for you."

The fourth prince's expression also became serious, and he nodded immediately and said: "I understand, but I also have my own considerations, mother and concubine don't have to worry." He will not refuse anyone who comes.What kind of people can use it and what kind of people can't use it, he will weigh it in his heart.

Concubine Li nodded slightly and said, "It's good that you know what's in your mind." She believed that her son could handle this matter well.

The fourth prince hesitated for a moment, and asked: "Mother, concubine, what about my cousin?" Now that the emperor father has granted him a marriage, what about my cousin?
Although he has always treated his cousin as his younger sister and never promised her anything, everyone around him tacitly agrees that her cousin will marry him in the future and become his princess.However, now that he has been bestowed a marriage by his father, it is impossible for him to marry his cousin as the princess.Furthermore, the cousin cannot marry him as the side princess.Men in the Li family are not allowed to take concubines, and women cannot be concubines.

When mentioning her niece, Concubine Li's eyes filled with guilt.

"I will arrange a good marriage for Houci."

The fourth prince nodded lightly: "That's the only way to go."

"If you meet a good young talent, tell me about it."

"it is good."

Concubine Li said again: "In two days, I will invite Mrs. Lu and Miss Lu to the palace."

The fourth prince said: "Mother can arrange it."

Seeing that her son still looked calm, Li Bin couldn't help but want to tease him.

"I heard that General Lu's daughter is very beautiful and very talented."

The fourth prince was still expressionless.

Li Pin continued: "A tiger father has no dog daughter. I heard that Miss Lu is also a very good general. The soldiers in the army are very convinced of her."

After the fourth prince was granted a marriage, he sent someone to inquire about Miss Lu.He knew about Miss Lu.

"Miss Lu and the daughters of the four great generals are close friends in the boudoir." Li Pin sighed in her heart, the emperor really gave Yun'er a good marriage. "General Lu and the four generals are also good friends, Yun'er, do you know what this means?"

"Mother, I know."

"The general's daughter is not like a girl from an ordinary family. We can't demand her by the standards of an ordinary girl." Concubine Li is not a pedantic person, "She is a talented female general. I wronged her, after she marries you, you can't bully her."

"Mother and concubine don't worry, I won't do it." The fourth prince is not one of those old-fashioned people who won't use worldly concepts to restrain Miss Lu and keep her trapped in the back house of the palace in the future.Furthermore, they will go to the fief together in the future, and the soldiers of the fief will trouble Miss Lu for training.

Concubine Li also knew that her son was not that kind of person, but she still had to tell him.

"You prepare a gift for Miss Lu, and when she enters the palace, you give it to her."

"Okay, I will prepare carefully."

Li Pin smiled and said, "Miss Lu is a female general, so don't give away things that ordinary girls like." She thought for a while and said, "A female general should like military books, swords or bows and arrows."

"I see." The Fourth Prince thanked Concubine Li gratefully, "Thank you, Mother Concubine."

"Why are you being polite to my concubine?" Li Concubine always felt that her son was too polite to her and never acted like a baby with her, which made her feel a little sad, but she also knew that his son's temperament was like this.

Alas, the son is too smart and steady, and not letting her mother worry about it will make her feel a little lonely.

Concubine Li told the fourth prince about the affairs of the Lu family, and the prince listened very seriously, although he already knew, and knew more than Concubine Li.

This lunch was very warm for the mother and son.

After lunch, the Fourth Prince did not leave in a hurry, but drank tea and chatted with Concubine Li.

At this moment, Sun Kui came to Changding Palace.

Pin Li and the fourth prince looked at Sun Kui in surprise.

Sun Kui first bowed to Concubine Li and the fourth prince, and immediately took out the imperial edict.

Concubine Li and the fourth prince hurriedly knelt down to accept the order.

Sun Kui opened the imperial decree and read aloud: "Prince Li has a heart, is virtuous and virtuous, and has won my heart..."

When Concubine Li, who was kneeling on the ground, heard the content of the imperial decree, her heart suddenly beat very fast, and an unconcealable surprise flashed across her eyes.

"Promote to Concubine, hereby!" Sun Kui finished reading the imperial decree, and handed the imperial decree to Concubine Li respectfully.

Concubine Li received the imperial decree with both hands.

"Congratulations, ma'am." Sun Kui thanked Concubine Li.

Qiu Sang and the others hurriedly congratulated Concubine Li: "Congratulations, empress, congratulations, empress!"

Concubine Li's face was filled with unbelievable joy: "Eunuch Sun, please forgive me."

"Your Majesty, you are being polite, this is what a servant girl should do." Sun Kui said some congratulatory words again.

The fourth prince invited Sun Kui to sit down and drink tea, but Sun Kui refused. Sun Kui said that he would go to Kunde Hall to read the imperial decree.

After hearing this, Concubine Li and the fourth prince showed surprise expressions on their faces, but they didn't ask any questions.

Sun Kui told Concubine Li and the fourth prince that the emperor also promoted Concubine Ying to Concubine Ying, and Concubine Liang Zhaoyi to Concubine Liang.

Knowing that she was not the only concubine who was promoted, Concubine Li breathed a sigh of relief.If she was the only one promoted, it would be too eye-catching.

The fourth prince personally sent Sun Kui out of Changding Palace.

Sun Kui thanked the fourth prince for his arrival, and then said something more to the fourth prince.

"Your Highness, the Emperor values ​​you very much, you must not let the Emperor down."

The fourth prince's heart trembled, and he immediately thanked Sun Kui: "Thank you, Eunuch Sun, for reminding me, I will not let my father down."

"Your Highness is being polite, and this servant will leave."

"Eunuch Sun, go slowly."

Sun Kui went to Kunde Hall with the imperial decree.

Liang Zhaoyi was not surprised at all that she was promoted to concubine.After the fourth prince was bestowed a marriage by the emperor, she guessed that Concubine Li would be promoted to Concubine Li, and she would also be promoted if she had a prince.

Sun Kui also told Concubine Liang that Concubine Ying was promoted to Concubine Ying.Of course, there is also the promotion of Concubine Li to Concubine Li.

Concubine Liang sighed in her heart: Sure enough!
Sun Kui drank tea in Kunde Palace before leaving.When he left, he politely accepted Concubine Liang's reward.

After Sun Kui left, Yu Meiren and Pan Cairen congratulated Concubine Liang one after another.Liang Zhaoyi was promoted to Concubine Liang, and they were happier than Concubine Liang herself.

"I thought we would never be promoted in this life, but I didn't expect my sister to be promoted to concubine."

"Great, the empress is now a concubine, so she can summon her parents and family."

Concubine Liang didn't think of this, and now she felt the joy of being promoted to concubine after hearing what Pan Cairen said.

"I didn't expect to be promoted either."

Zhao Yao was not surprised at all: "Father gave the fourth brother the daughter of General Lu in marriage, and he will definitely be promoted to the position of Concubine Li next, but it is not very good to promote the mother concubine of the fourth brother alone, so father The emperor promoted Concubine Ying and Concubine Mu."

After hearing Zhao Yao's words, Yu Meiren asked in surprise, "So that's what happened?"

Pan Cairen said in astonishment: "Yaoyao, you mean that my sister was promoted by the way?"

Zhao Yao nodded lightly and said, "That's right, the concubine's promotion is incidental." He said so, but he didn't think so in his heart.He knew in his heart that Liang Zhaoyi's promotion to concubine was the main thing, while concubine Li's promotion to concubine Li was incidental.

The fifth princess raised her hand and tapped Zhao Yao's little head: "Tenth brother, do you ever say that about your mother?"

Zhao Yao covered his head, stared at the fifth princess and said, "I'm not wrong."

"Niang Niang, look at the tenth brother..."

Concubine Liang smiled slightly: "Yaoyao is right, I was just promoted by the way."

Yu Meiren smiled and said, "It's not a bad thing to be promoted by the way. Now that my sister is a concubine, I can see my family if I want to." Yu Meiren and Pan Cairen were full of envy.

Concubine Liang said: "In the future, I will summon your family to the palace and let you meet them."

Hearing what Liang Bin said, Yu Meiren and Pan Cairen immediately turned red.

The two were very moved, and said with a choked tone: "Sister... Thank you..."

"We are sisters, you don't have to be polite to me." Liang Bin sighed softly in her heart, and finally she was able to see her second brother and the others openly.

The other concubines in the harem were not surprised that Concubine Li was promoted to Concubine Li and Liang Zhaoyi was promoted to concubine.Of course, I was a little surprised.However, compared to their promotion, the promotion of Concubine Ying to Concubine Ying is even more shocking.

Concubine Ying has been promoted to Concubine Ying only a few years after entering the palace, which is amazing.

Why is Concubine Ying promoted to Concubine Ying?
She entered the palace for two or three years and did not give birth to a dragon heir for the emperor. What qualifications does she have to be a concubine?

However, when they thought that Concubine Rong had not been promoted to Imperial Concubine, and now she was going to sit on an equal footing with Concubine Ying, their hearts were instantly balanced.Of course, it's more of a schadenfreude.

Concubine Rong has been a noble concubine for more than ten years, and she has not been promoted to imperial concubine until now.Concubine Ying was promoted to Concubine Ying only two or three years after entering the palace. When Concubine Ying gave birth to a dragon heir, she might be promoted to Concubine Huang.At that time, Concubine Ying will surpass Concubine Rong.

Regarding Concubine Ying's promotion to Concubine Ying, the most difficult thing to accept was Concubine Rong.

Concubine Rong cannot accept Concubine Ying as an equal to her.After she learned about this, she smashed many teacups and vases angrily.

Empress Xie in Zhaoyang Palace laughed very happily after learning about it.She was very caring and virtuous in rewarding Concubine Ying, Concubine Li, and Concubine Liang.

It didn't take long for the ministers to learn about it.

Could this be the second best thing the emperor said before?

In the East Palace, the Prince's face was a bit ugly.

"Royal father, give the daughter of General Lu to the fourth brother in marriage, and give the concubine of the fourth brother a promotion." The prince frowned and said displeasedly, "Royal father is giving the fourth brother Building momentum?"

The eighth prince nodded and said, "I'm afraid it is." It seems that the father wants to let the fourth child join the battle between the prince and the king.

"Could it be that the fourth brother is the son that the emperor loves the most?" He and Dai Wang don't have the treatment of the fourth brother, which makes the prince feel very uncomfortable.

"Brother, I don't think so." The eighth prince expressed his inner guess, "Father may be trying to check and balance the court."

"What do you mean by checking and balancing the court?" the prince asked puzzled.

"Father wants to use fourth brother to check and balance eldest brother you and acting king." Of course, this is not the main purpose.

When the prince heard what the eighth prince said, he instantly understood.

"I see."

"Big Brother, Fourth Brother is nothing to worry about, our biggest enemy is still Dai Wang."

"You're right." Compared to the fourth prince, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince hates His Royal Highness Daiwang the most.

"When we get rid of His Royal Highness, it's not too late to deal with fourth brother." The eighth prince said, "Big brother, fourth brother is not your opponent."

"The fourth child is indeed not our opponent."

After Xuanping, he also said the same thing to His Royal Highness Dai Wang.He persuaded His Royal Highness Dai Wang not to shift his target to the fourth prince, their biggest enemy was still His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.Also, the Fourth Prince is no threat to them.As long as they get rid of His Royal Highness, everything is theirs.

"That's what I said, but this king is still upset." Dai Wang said with a dissatisfied face, "Uncle, do you think Father likes fourth child more than me?"

"Your Highness, you think too much, there is no prince comparable to you." Xuan Pinghou comforted His Royal Highness and said, "The fourth prince is just a pawn of the emperor, to train you."

"Training this king?" His Royal Highness Daiwang looked puzzled, "What does father want to train this king?"

"Your Highness, it's not easy to sit in that seat. You have to go through all kinds of training from the emperor. The fourth prince is the emperor's training for you." Xuan Pinghou didn't talk nonsense to appease His Royal Highness, but he really thought so , "We can't do anything to the fourth prince for the time being."

Although Dai Wang is a bit stupid in court affairs, it doesn't mean that he is incorrigibly stupid.

"This king understands, this king will not touch the fourth child." If he wants to do it, he will have to wait until he kills the prince.

　One watch will be presented, and there will be two more in the evening.

　　Concubine Liang: I was promoted by the way.

　　Zhao Yao: The concubine mother is really incidental.Concubine Ying is the emperor's favorite.

　　Emperor: I am not, I have not, don't talk nonsense.

　　Finally, ask for a monthly ticket!Ask for a reward!Please leave a message! ! !
