Chapter 137

While Xiao Changyin did not continue to attack, the emperor sent four generals directly under him, and asked them to lead [-] soldiers to Chu State each.

After several generals went out, the emperor was thinking about who should take over Chu.

The emperor of Chu State does not need to stay, but a few members of the royal family can stay to prove his benevolence.

However, these people should not have real power.

And the surroundings have to be guarded day and night to be safe.

He will also mention it in the court these two days, and the faces of the two princes who are still in Lanjing are a little eager to move.

The emperor also knew their thoughts.

After all, they had little chance of winning against the crown prince.

Instead of being rewarded with a fief in the future and becoming a prince in the past, it is better to go to Chu State.

But now that the overall situation is uncertain, it's not like they have lost the possibility of being princes and emperors.

So self-recommendation at this time is equivalent to them voluntarily leaving the battlefield of seizing the heir.

They are not reconciled.

But they really thought a little too much. The emperor even considered his own brothers and the princes in several clans, but he didn't think about his two sons.

After thinking about it for a few days, the emperor still called several courtiers to the Xuanzheng Pavilion to discuss together.

During the period, Wanmei insisted on going in at the door, but Shouan didn't dare to let her in, so she hurriedly dissuaded her.

When Wanmei heard Shou'an's words, she thought he was looking down on her and trying to trip her up on purpose, so she was about to break in while cursing "Damn eunuch".

Shou'an's expression didn't change when he heard this, and he looked at it still respectfully, and just let the water go quietly.

His mouth was not idle at all, and he shouted at the top of his voice, "Miss Wanmei! Your Majesty is discussing important matters with the ministers! No one is allowed to enter."

His shout was heard by the emperor and ministers who were discussing important matters inside.

The emperor frowned, looked at the door, and saw Wanmei rushing in, followed by Shou'an who looked terrified.

Shou An hurriedly knelt on the ground, and said with a bitter face, "Your Majesty, Wanmei is pregnant, and the slaves dare not do anything."

This is true, but not quite true either.

Shou'an has his own way to avoid touching Wanmei's belly and let the maid grab her, but he is too lazy to do it.

It happened that he also wanted to know how much position this beauty occupies in His Majesty's heart.

The emperor's face was frighteningly dark, and most of the courtiers standing below were old courtiers who had been reused by the late emperor, and their contribution to Bei Xiao was astonishing.

Years of seniority and contributions to Bei Xiao made them qualified to look at the emperor with critical eyes at this time.

They had heard that the emperor was very fond of a beautiful woman recently, and they had also heard some ridiculous things.

But today this is too absurd. What is the Xuanzheng Pavilion, only the kings of the past dynasties and those who have the will of the king can enter.

Now a little concubine, but she thinks this place is her bedroom, and she can enter if she wants?

Facing the disapproval in the eyes of several people, the veins on the emperor's forehead twitched, "Shou'an, why didn't you stop me?"

Shouan kowtowed vigorously, but he could hear the grievance in his tone, "Your Majesty, Wanmei is pregnant, and she threatened the child in her belly. The servants dare not use too heavy a hand."

Wanmei also felt that something was wrong at this time, why can't she come to this place?

But she is very favored, even the queen is walking on the same road with her now, so she has to make way for her.

One of the courtiers' complexion sank, he stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, please deal with Wanmei."

"Your Majesty?" Wanmei's eyes were slightly red in front of so many people, and she quickly thought of an excuse, "The concubine just heard that His Majesty hasn't eaten properly for a few days, so she came to persuade His Majesty to take care of her body."

The courtier snorted coldly, "If Your Majesty doesn't punish, anyone can come to the Xuanzheng Pavilion in the future."

Although the rest of the courtiers did not speak, their faces were equally ugly.

The emperor asked the two guards outside to escort Wanmei away, then looked at the others and said, "After the discussion here is over, I will punish him."

The emperor didn't come out of the Xuanzheng Pavilion until it got dark.

Even more courtiers entered the Xuanzheng Pavilion.

In addition to the first few old officials, the emperor pointed out a few younger officials.

There were too many people, but they did not solve the problem for the emperor. Instead, they had different opinions and quarreled fiercely.

The emperor felt a pain in his head when he heard it, and finally saw that there was no result, so he asked everyone to leave first, and discuss it tomorrow.

He drank half a cup of tea before thinking of Wanmeiren.

"How did she come here?"

Shouan: "..."

"Your Majesty, you were the one who said earlier that Wanmei is in this palace, and she can go wherever she wants."

"Miss Wanmei went to Fuying Tower the day before yesterday, went to Yongning Palace yesterday, went to Empress Dowager's this morning, and went to Fanghua Hall of Crown Princess for dinner at noon."

After Shou An finished speaking, he fell silent. In fact, he thought this beauty was quite interesting.

Among other things, the ability to kill is not as great as ordinary.

Concubine Zheng is the one who holds grudges the most, she can remember one thing for several years, as for the Empress...Although Shouan doesn't think that the empress's temperament will be calculated, but he thinks that Wanmei will retaliate sooner or later.

The more His Majesty loves her now, the more ruthless he will be in the future.

As for the crown princess... how many times has this happened, Shouan has no idea at all, the reason why Wanmei wants to fight with concubines in the harem is for the sake of her majesty and status.

But why is she always having trouble with the princess?
"To the Queen Mother? What's the matter?"

Shouan's expression became more complicated, "There are two more maids serving the empress dowager, and when the empress dowager was leading them to say a few words in the imperial garden, she was overheard by Wanmei."

What he said was nothing more than that the queen mother would find a way to call the emperor out, give the two girls a chance encounter, and let them seize the opportunity.

Wanmei is also strange in doing things, she didn't poke it face to face, but followed to the queen mother's bedroom.

Then he mocked the empress dowager for being shameless in front of all the people in the palace, and sent the girl into the palace for the sake of power, just like the old bustard in the land of fireworks.

Shouan picked out some words and briefly described them.

The emperor: "...the queen mother... how is it?"

Although he has no feelings for the queen mother, but for the time being, he doesn't want the queen mother to be pissed off.

Shou'an: "... vomited blood and passed out on the spot. The imperial doctor went to check the pulse and said that he was very angry, because His Majesty had important matters to discuss with several ministers, and the slaves are not easy to disturb."

The emperor rubbed the center of his eyebrows, and asked Shou'an to call Chen Taiyi over.

Doctor Chen only knew that the emperor was looking for him, but he didn't know what was going on, so he shook his head when he asked about Shou'an.

So he carried the wooden box and walked towards Guangming Palace nervously.

There are various speculations in my heart why His Majesty summoned him to the past.

Not to mention that His Majesty already knew about the child in Wanmei's womb...

Thinking of this, Imperial Physician Chen quickly shook his head, no, no, he just felt that it was unlikely that Wanmei would be pregnant, but it was unlikely and not absolutely impossible.
