Fengming Chen Palace

Chapter 35

After returning to Nongyu Xiaozhu, Su Qingning washed up and leaned on the soft couch.

Thinking of the sixth prince Xuanyuanqi she saw at the palace banquet, she frowned.

In my mind, I don't have many impressions of Xuanyuan Qi. After all, the original owner was not favored in the first life, and fell into the dust not long after being favored in the second life.

Searching through the few memories in her mind, Su Qingning frowned even deeper. In the memory of the original owner, there was very little about Xuanyuanqi.

He is the second son of the empress dowager, one year younger than the current emperor, that is to say, after the empress dowager gave birth to the emperor, she conceived Xuanyuan Qi.

Because Xuanyuanye became the emperor, Xuanyuanqi, who was a prince, went to the fiefdom when the new emperor ascended the throne.

Later... It seemed that something else happened later, but the original owner's memory was too vague, and Su Qingning didn't know what happened.

"What's the matter, master? It's late at night, it's time to rest." Mother Chen came in from outside the house with a bowl in her hand, and asked with concern when she saw Su Qingning leaning on the soft couch with frowning eyebrows.

She handed the bowl in her hand to Su Qingning, it was to help her recuperate her body, soothe her mind and help her sleep.

"Mother Chen, do you know anything about the Sixth Prince?" Taking the bowl, Su Qingning sipped the contents of the bowl and asked Mother Mother Chen.

After all, she is an old man in the palace, and she has served the concubines of the late emperor, so she should be very familiar with the affairs in the harem.

"The Sixth Prince?" She raised her eyebrows, Chen Momo was a little surprised, "Why did the master think of asking the Sixth Prince? But what did the Yanqing Palace find today?"

Nanny Chen was very perceptive, and when she heard Su Qingning's question, she thought of what happened in Yanqing Palace.

"Forget it, if Mammy knows about the Sixth Prince, can you tell me about it?" Nodding, Su Qingning didn't say what she found, but just asked Nanny Chen to sit down and tell her about the Sixth Prince.

For some reason, after seeing the sixth prince today, she always felt a little uneasy.

A woman's intuition has always been very accurate, Su Qingning knows herself very well, if not for something, she would never feel this way.

"Since the master wants to know, this servant will tell you about the Sixth Prince." After thanking her, Mother Chen sat on a chair beside her.

"The master must know that the queen mother has three children, the current emperor, the sixth prince and Princess Mingyu."

"Back then, the Empress Dowager married the first emperor for several years without any heirs, but the concubines in the harem were pregnant one by one. Under such circumstances, the Empress Dowager was inevitably anxious. Thanks to the Chu family's influence in the court, otherwise, the Empress Dowager's empress I'm afraid I won't be able to keep my position."

Su Qingning noticed that when talking about the queen mother, there seemed to be a little irony in Madam Chen's words, which made her a little puzzled.

Thinking about it carefully, she realized that Zhaoyi, who served the late emperor back then, she almost followed Zhaoyi out of the palace after the late emperor's death. Presumably, the friendship between the master and the servant was very deep, and that's why she treated her well. The Queen Mother is so.

"Because she wanted a child, the Empress Dowager drank a lot of medicine, and she finally became pregnant. The child she gave birth to is the current emperor. Therefore, she stabilized her position."

"Shortly after giving birth to the emperor, she became pregnant again, who is now the sixth prince. When the sixth prince was three years old, she gave birth to Princess Mingyu again."

"There was no crown prince at that time, and now the emperor is the eldest son, so he is naturally the most qualified. But the queen mother has favored the sixth prince since she was a child, and the sixth prince is more in her heart."

"The princes grew up gradually. On the eve of the establishment of the crown prince, the current emperor fell ill and almost died. During that time, the queen mother was not focused on the current emperor's body, but on making the sixth prince the crown prince."

"Fortunately, God blesses the emperor's body gradually recovering. The first emperor finally appointed the emperor as the prince. There seems to be some twists and turns. The servants are not very clear about it. They only know that the queen mother made a fuss, but it was over. Of."

"After the crown prince was established, all the princes went to the fief. Only the sixth prince, under the protection of the queen mother, did not go to the fief until the new emperor ascended the throne."

When Su Qingning was puzzled, Nanny Chen continued to talk about the past. After she finished speaking, Su Qingning nodded. In her heart, she felt pity for Xuanyuan Ye.

Both are sons, but as a mother, she favors the younger son. Presumably, his life was not easy when he was a child. No wonder his expression changed when the Queen Mother was mentioned.

"Mother Chen, is the relationship between the emperor and the queen mother not good?" It is indeed much more convenient to have a mother beside her. She knows many things and does not need to send someone to inquire.

"The relationship between the emperor and the queen mother has been very cold since childhood. From the time the emperor was born to the time when he became an adult, the number of times he saw the queen mother was very few. On the contrary, the sixth prince has always grown up beside the queen mother."

Hearing Su Qingning's question, the sarcasm in Chen Nanny's eyes deepened. After she finished speaking, she took a deep breath and looked at Su Qingning, "Master, it's getting late, you should take a rest. Tomorrow is the first day of the new year. Greetings to the Empress Dowager."

After drinking the tonic soup prepared by Nanny Chen, Su Qingning also felt sleepy. She responded, yawned, got up and walked towards the inner room.

After Su Qingning settled down, Nanny Chen returned to the outer room. She leaned on the soft bed, and sighed faintly when she thought of what she said before.

Because the time for rest had already passed, the night passed quickly. The next morning, Su Qingning got up in a daze, and the red brocade and red embroidery waited for her to change.

Today is the first day of the new year, or the first day of the new year. It is a big day to greet the queen.

After changing clothes and packing everything, Su Qingning took Hongxiu to Fengyang Palace.

In Fengyang Palace, quite a few people came at this time, because it was the first day of the Lunar New Year, so apart from the concubines and concubines in the harem, the wives of the royal clan also had to enter the palace to pay their respects to the queen.

After entering the hall, Su Qingning found a corner and stood quietly, this was her habit.

Anyway, the status is not high now, so there is no need to pick a conspicuous place to attract the hatred of others.

"Congratulations to Su Jieyu, who climbed up so quickly." A slightly familiar voice sounded, and Su Qingning turned her head to look in the direction of the voice.

The one who spoke was Li Wanhua, who had some issues with her, but now, she is already Li Rongyi.

Before, the two were both Cong Liupin, but now, Su Qingning's status is already higher than that of Li Rongyi.

"Unexpectedly, after being promoted, Li Rongyi still doesn't know how to speak. Today is the first day of the Lunar New Year, so it's better for Li Rongyi to calm down."

Looking at Li Rongyi, Su Qingning said unceremoniously, no one will offend me, I will not offend anyone, if she insists on provoking her, there is no need for her to save face.

"You!" Su Qingning's words made Li Rongyi very angry. Her eyes turned around in the hall to make sure that no one noticed them, and she suddenly had a plan in her heart.
