Chapter 666: The Main Room (184 More)
As the main wife, the queen personally attends to the emperor's illness.He came early in the morning every day, and the emperor always had to go to bed before leaving.

How can Concubine Xian see this?As soon as the queen ordered it, the noble concubine Xian went to the empress dowager to sue.

"The emperor is sick, but it's not a serious illness. It's just scabies, and it can't kill you. The queen has spent so much time, and for the first time since the emperor ascended the throne ten years ago, she directly sent a decree to Jingshi She wants to monopolize the favor of the emperor!"

"The imperial doctor said that the disease is not a serious one, but it will last for several months. Didn't the empress make it clear that it will take a few months for her to be exclusively favored by a special room?"

The empress dowager was also dissatisfied: "The emperor is ill, and the Ai family sent an order to conduct a thorough investigation for the sake of the emperor's health. The queen's behavior is not necessarily for the emperor's sake, but for her own sake... She is the empress, for the emperor It is natural to be sick, but if she wants to use the emperor's illness to plot her own thoughts, even the Ai family will not tolerate her."

The empress dowager summoned the empress, saying that she was afraid of the empress' hardship, and that concubine Xian and the empress should take turns to serve the emperor.

"Although you are the emperor's first wife, concubine Xian is also a concubine bestowed to the emperor by the late emperor. She was also married by a Ming matchmaker and carried into the Chonghua Palace in a big sedan chair. According to our old Manchurian etiquette, you are the official wife. She is the second wife, even if everyone else is a concubine, she is not. Therefore, you should fulfill your duty as a wife for the emperor, and she should too."

The queen raised her eyes, stared silently at the empress dowager, and then smiled.

"Emperor Niang's words are very true. It's just that my ministers are also thinking about Concubine Xian. After all, Concubine Xian has not done anything in these years. If the emperor's illness is angry with her this time and hurts her foundation, wouldn't it be harmful?" her life?"

The former queen was always the most filial and obedient daughter-in-law in front of the empress dowager.This time, it was the first time that the queen contradicted the empress dowager face to face.

The empress looked dignified and graceful, and she was neither humble nor overbearing to the empress dowager this time.This demeanor is unique to being a direct empress, even the empress dowager, the highest in her life is only in the concubine position, even Xi Guifei has not been formally canonized, so the empress dowager can't help squinting in front of the empress's demeanor Take a look.

The empress dowager stared at the empress: "In the same way, don't you think about yourself? Concubine Xian has no children, so what about you, you don't have a son-in-law now, so aren't you afraid of getting over the emperor's illness and hurting you?" Root, no more heirs?"

The queen still smiled dignifiedly: "Thank you, Queen Mother, for your reminder. It's just that firstly, the son-in-law is the emperor's wife, and he is duty-bound; secondly, even if there is no legitimate son, whoever gives birth to a child in the harem can only be called son-in-law For the mother. The son has no worries."

What the empress said was not only to take care of the emperor, but also for the sake of the concubine Xian. With such a spirit of selfless dedication, even the empress dowager was speechless to refute.

In the end, the Queen got her wish.In the whole east and west six palaces, only the queen can go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation every day during the emperor's illness.
.
The emperor laughed when he heard the empress's words: "Empress does not need to blame herself, this illness is not the empress' fault. I didn't intend to tell the empress at first, so that the empress would not worry about it."

The queen was sad, "Where did the emperor say this? The concubine is the emperor's wife, and the emperor is not feeling well. Naturally, the concubine should be the first to know. The concubine should serve the emperor by her side. The husband and wife are united and look forward to it." Your Majesty will recover soon."

The emperor remained silent for a long while, only squinting at the queen who was kneeling in front of him.

His eyes are as quiet as midnight, without temperature, and can't see waves.
