Chapter 106 Changing the Gift List
"The concubine has already ordered the people in the imperial dining room to prepare. Your Majesty puts his heart on his stomach. The day before the Mid-Autumn Festival, the mooncakes will definitely be delivered to the homes of the ministers as scheduled." Concubine Shen replied with a smile. She has been in charge of the harem for so many years, and there has been no trouble. .

The emperor thought about it: In the past, moon cakes were given to ministers of the first and fifth ranks, but this year, it has to be changed. All officials who work in Liangdu should give condolences, and the gifts are the same regardless of rank. , to show your heart.

"My concubine, I thought about it for a long time just now, and decided to change the list of gifts."

After saying that, Concubine Shen was slightly stunned, in previous years she would send some important ministers, why did the emperor suddenly change the list this year.

"Your Majesty, you want to add Zhongyihou's family!" Shen Guifei thought for a moment, she thought that the emperor wanted to add Jinxuan's list.

After a while, the emperor told Concubine Shen Gui his thoughts, and Concubine Shen was quite surprised when she heard that, if those low-ranking courtiers knew that the emperor liked them so much, they would be overjoyed.

Concubine Shen was worried that the time would be too short to make so many mooncakes: "Your Majesty, will the temporary addition of the list affect the production of mooncakes?"

The emperor pursed his lips and smiled: "It's still too late for the people in the imperial dining room to rush to work, and moon cakes are not just a gift to express the festival."

"Okay, Chen Qie will let them catch up with work." Suddenly, Concubine Shen stood up with a smile, and after she saluted, she exited the hall.

Less than a moment after Concubine Shen left Ganquan Palace, the emperor let his confidant Eunuch Liu enter the palace.

"Aren, what grade do you think I should make the second and third princes?" The emperor called Eunuch Liu's name affectionately. Eunuch Liu's real name is Liu Renhong, and the emperor likes to call him Aren. He has been with the emperor for dozens of years. Years, has always been the emperor's right-hand man.

"Your Majesty, you made Ms. Jinxuan a first-rank Princess, and the Shen and Lu clans will point their finger at Prince Rui's Mansion. They are worried that the Shangluo family will support His Highness to seize the throne, so they will definitely take action against the prince, so , this old slave thinks that we should divert the attention of the Second and Third Princes so that they don't have the energy to deal with His Highness Prince Rui."

Ah Ren is right, he can't put his Ruier in danger, so he can make the second child the second-rank prince, and the third child the second-rank prince. According to the ancestor's regulations, this also meets the requirements, because the second child's mother and concubine As a noble concubine, he is naturally more noble than the third child, and Rui'er is a first-rank prince because Rui'er is the eldest son.

The emperor smiled and told Eunuch Liu: "Aren, the grades of the second and third children will definitely be different. Tomorrow morning, I will announce this decision so that people from the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Industry can prepare residences for the second and third children."

After Eunuch Liu nodded slightly, he asked again: "Your Majesty, whose brand are you looking for tonight?"

The emperor hesitated for a while, and he decided to go to the Lingyun Palace: "Aren, Concubine Luo is almost in good health. Tonight, I will go to her place to have a look. Whatever you want, spend the night there."

Eunuch Liu nodded with a smile, he thought: Concubine Luo is different from other empresses, she is calm and peaceful by nature, and doesn't like forming cliques, but unfortunately she has been in the palace for the first ten years, but she has no children.

In the summer, Concubine Luo finally got pregnant with the dragon seed, but she was miscarried by Shen and Lu. The emperor wanted to investigate and found definite evidence.

Outside the palace, the second prince's people have already started to act. This time, the second prince sent two secret guards to carry out the mission. He thinks that there is no need to mobilize a large number of troops to deal with a weak woman.
