Chapter 180

People on both sides felt that His Majesty would favor them.

The people around the Queen Mother think that the Queen Mother is His Majesty's mother, even if she is not the biological mother, it doesn't make much difference. Didn't they see that Her Majesty often sends the servants around her to deliver things these days?

And the people around Concubine Wan also believed that the Eighth Prince was His Majesty's heir, so there was no way they would prefer an outsider instead of their own heir.

The emperor felt more and more headaches, but he didn't want to make the relationship too stiff for both sides.

Especially the Queen Mother...

But Wanpin gave birth to him a son no matter what.

And in this matter, it is obvious that there are fewer mistakes on Wanbi's side.

But he couldn't just point it out.

The emperor asked Shouan to take everyone out, and after comforting each other, he personally pointed out two nuns to take care of the eighth prince.

As for the queen mother, there are some troubles.

If it used to be, just send some jewelry over there.

But now this person's appetite has been raised by him, but jewelry is probably not enough.

So the emperor thought for a long time, and pointed out a girl from the queen mother's family to the seventh prince.

He made this decision after deliberation. The queen mother always wanted the girl in the family to enter the East Palace and be the prince's concubine.

Is this idea just because the girl in the family can't get married?
of course not.

The queen mother is also thinking about the location of the next emperor's harem.

The emperor knew this very well, so he specifically referred to the seventh prince.

It is a grace to let the girls of the Queen Mother's family enter the prince's backyard.

And Zijin didn't have the intention of taking the throne, so he could rest assured.

The emperor's arrangement was very good, Xiao Changluo was like a bolt from the blue when he learned about it.

Fortunately, this matter is not worth the next imperial decree, and there is still room for redemption.

Holding the child in his arms, Xiao Changluo rushed into the palace to meet Concubine Zheng.

When Concubine Zheng saw her son and grandson, she was so happy that she quickly asked Shi Zhu and Liu Xu to arrange the dining room for meals.

"Didn't you say that you have a lot of things in your hands? Can't leave for a while? Why did you come to see the concubine mother?"

Xiao Changluo asked the surrounding palace people to go down, and summed it up in a few sentences.

He didn't foolishly say that he doesn't take concubines, but analyzed the pros and cons in a very meaningful way.

"The status of the princess is not high, although the status of the girl in the Queen Mother's family is not high, but if she enters the backyard of the minister..."

Xiao Changluo looked embarrassed, and said in a deep voice, "Concubine mother, you also know the attitude of father towards the empress dowager lately, what should I do to this girl?"

"If she has a quarrel with the princess, how will I deal with it?"

"The empress dowager is dissatisfied with the heavy handling, and what will happen to the prince's concubine's face if the handling is light?"

What he said was a bit inappropriate, causing Concubine Zheng to frown, "Her face? Are you still at odds with the concubine's room?"

Concubine Zheng's voice carried a warning, "What? She can't even accommodate a concubine? No wonder I see you've been married for so long, and you've been refusing to take a concubine. It's because of her."

Xiao Changluo was flustered, but his face was calm, "She doesn't know about it yet. As for not taking a concubine, Rong Erchen will explain it to the concubine later."

Xiao Changluo sighed, raised his eyes to look at Concubine Zheng, "Concubine Mother thinks that this girl is willing to be a concubine when she enters the backyard of my son-in-law?"

Concubine Zheng is not a fool, she knows that it is definitely impossible.

The struggle in the inner house is certain. With the Queen Mother here, it is estimated that this hand will be extended to the front yard.

Concubine Zheng was not happy.

Anyway, the sons already have a son-in-law. If there are bastards and the like, it's icing on the cake, and if they don't, it doesn't matter.

It's not good to make a mess in the backyard if you want to have a bastard.

She is also a woman, and she has been in the harem for more than ten years. She knows that there are many tricks in the inner house, and if it is not handled properly, it will definitely affect the front.

So she stood up and walked back and forth, "No, no, it's fine if it's the girl next to me, what's the matter with the girl in the Empress Dowager's family."

"It's obvious that your father wants to give favors to the queen mother and ask you to make sacrifices."

If it's from an ordinary family, even a farmer's and businesswoman's fine, at least there's no trouble later.

Thinking about the Empress Dowager again, Concubine Zheng felt a headache.

She made a decisive decision, "Don't worry about this matter, just let the mother concubine come."

Xiao Changluo expressed doubts, and said in a low voice, "Mother Concubine, can you do it? Or..."

"What else?" Concubine Zheng squinted her eyes, "What's the matter, even Concubine Mother doesn't believe it? I still think Concubine Mother doesn't have that ability."

Xiao Changluo: "..."

He didn't mean that either.

Now that the beginning has already been started, Xiao Changluo simply talks to the end, so as to avoid further trouble in the future.

"About the fact that I haven't taken a concubine all this time, I will tell my concubine the reason."

Concubine Zheng looked at her son suspiciously, she was deceived last time.

But although she didn't want to admit it, the result was indeed good.

Although the status of the other princes and concubines is a bit high, there are many troubles.

And every time seeing them enter the palace, Concubine Zheng's eyes hurt.

Because these people like to wear Zhenghong clothes as soon as they enter the palace.

Their mothers-in-law are all concubines in the harem, and they are all concubines, and concubines cannot wear red.

Dressed so brightly in bright red in front of the mother-in-law who is a concubine, I don't know if they did it out of their brains or on purpose.

It's not gentle, it's not that she doesn't like to wear Zhenghong, Concubine Zheng has seen it in the mansion, her favorite is red, so every time she enters the palace, she specially changes it.

If there is something new, she will send someone to Fuying Tower.

Even her daughter-in-law liked martial arts a little too much. Concubine Zheng recalled the scene when she saw Wen Rou holding a whip in her hand and breaking a tree with a few whips when she left the palace.

Concubine Zheng sighed quietly, thinking that it would be good if she didn't have a concubine's room, but if there was a conflict, how about a gentle lash of the whip?
Xiao Changluo didn't know that his mother's views had changed, so he racked his brains to come up with a bad idea.

"Mother and concubine, I'm ashamed to say it." Xiao Changluo shyly touched the sachet on his waist, "I'm ashamed in my pocket."

"If the prince and concubine hadn't used the dowry to make up for it during this period, my son... would be really sad."

Concubine Zheng... staggered and almost fell.

Her eyes darkened, she gritted her teeth and asked, "What did you say?"

Don't get her wrong, how is this possible?

The words have been spoken, and there is no reason to take them back.

Xiao Changluo was bold enough to continue, "My son learned how to do business a few days ago, and lost a lot of money."

Concubine Zheng said angrily, "You are a prince, and you still do business? Even if you don't want...that position, you can't be so self-deprecating!"

Although the merchants in this dynasty have improved compared to before, they are still the ones with low status overall.

Xiao Changluo is now a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, "Mother Concubine, what you said is wrong, what is self-willing to degenerate, can this money-making thing be called self-willing to degenerate?"

Concubine Zheng was very angry, "Are you short of money? You are the prince, how can you still be short of money?"

Xiao Changluo muttered in a low voice, sounding weak but still insisted, "Who would think too much money?"
