The emperor's scheming: alluring the world

Chapter 284 Promoted to Concubine
Because Xie Liangdi personally took care of Li Dingkang's diet, the Crown Princess could no longer prescribe Li Dingkang's medicine. Within a few days, Li Dingkang's body recovered. Staying in Xie Liangdi's bedroom, with lingering affection every night, it made all the side concubines and Emperor Liang in the Eastern Palace jealous.

The concubine hated Xie Liangdi, but when she found out that the side concubines and Liangdi had hatred for Xie Liangdi, she had a clear heart and a plan.

Another morning, the concubines, concubine Liang, and concubines in the Eastern Palace greeted the crown princess, and Xie Liangdi was the last to arrive. One of the concubines hated Xie Liangdi for being favored, so she said to the crown princess in a strange way: "Sister, you It's too good-natured, Xie Liangdi missed the hour when asking for safety, it's fine if you don't blame, at least you should be reminded, are the rules of the East Palace just for display, and no one will follow suit in the future."

As soon as the concubine's words came out, the other concubines and Di Liang joined forces one after another, and the concubine's face showed a look of embarrassment at the right time. At this moment, the little servant outside the palace entered the hall and said: "Prince concubine, Madam Yang, who is beside the queen, asks to see you."

As soon as she heard that Nanny Yang was begging to see her, the princess had no choice but to stop talking, and ordered her servants to tell Nanny Yang to enter the hall. A moment later, a woman in her fifties, dressed as a nanny, entered the main hall. She was the Queen's confidant, and only Seeing that Nanny Yang was holding a tray in her hand, she bowed respectfully, then presented the tray in her hand and said: "Prince Princess, this is a sketch of a small dress drawn by the Queen's Majesty, and I ordered my servant to bring it to you." The East Palace has shown the Crown Princess, if the Crown Princess is dissatisfied, she can bring it up, and the servants will report back to the Queen."

The Crown Princess hurriedly ordered the maids beside her to take over the drafts, and after reading them one by one, she smiled at Mammy Yang: "The empress mother is worrying, the children's clothes should be comfortable, and I have no special requirements." She handed the drawing to the female officer at the side, and the female officer handed it over to Nanny Yang.

Nanny Yang took the draft, saluted the princess, and left, but when she passed by Xie Liangdi, she stopped and smiled kindly at Xie Liangdi: "Last night, the Queen had a headache in the middle of the night, I didn't sleep for half the night, fortunately Xie Liangdi got up early and went to pay her respects, and helped the empress dowager massage, which relieved the empress's headache a lot, the empress invited Xie Liangdi to go to Fenglin Hall in the afternoon, she wants to reward Xie Liangdi for your filial piety."

"Mommy, you are serious. It is a concubine's duty to be filial in front of the queen, and concubines should not ask for rewards!" Xie Liangdi said with trepidation when she heard the words.

But Mother Yang said with a meaningful smile: "If Xie Liangdi doesn't want to be rewarded, she has to go to Fenglin Hall to answer in person. In the afternoon, the Empress will send someone to thank Liangdi when she wakes up in the afternoon. The servant girl will leave now. " After Yang Nanny finished speaking, she gave a salute to Xie Liangdi, and then retreated.

With Yang Nanny's words, the Crown Princess wanted to take the opportunity to severely punish Xie Liangdi, but she had to give up. Yang Nanny had already made it so clear that if she severely punished Xie Liangdi, she would definitely offend the Queen and serve as a Daughter-in-law, she is inconvenient and cannot serve near her. It is already unfilial. If it is reported that she severely punished the filial Xie Liangdi, it will not benefit her reputation in the slightest. She will not do such thankless things. .

"It turned out that the reason why sister Xie came late was to fulfill her filial piety in front of her mother. I didn't hear from you, sister Xie, and was almost misunderstood by the sisters."

Xie Liangdi respectfully bowed her head and said: "The princess concubine is pregnant, so she cannot serve in front of the queen, the concubine just wants to share the worries of the princess concubine, she never wants other sisters to know her concubine and not the princess concubine's sister In my eyes, it's because my concubine's health is not good, and I didn't explain the matter clearly."

Seeing Xie Liangdi's charming and pitiful appearance, the princess felt jealous and hated, but the prince likes such a pitiful, charming and enchanting look.

"What my sister said, we are both the prince, so naturally we have to take good care of the queen for the prince. I also want to thank my sister for solving the queen's worries. It happened that the former Japanese palace got a peony step, so I gave it to you. Sister!" The Crown Princess said generously, after she finished speaking, the female officer at the side turned and went to the inner bedroom, turned around for a while, and presented the brocade box to Xie Liangdi with both hands.

Xie Liangdi took it, stepped forward and knelt down to thank, "Thank you, sister, Crown Princess, for the reward."

In the afternoon, Xie Liangdi went out of Fenglin Palace, and when she came out, she got many rewards. Not long after she returned to the East Palace, the queen's canonized Phoenix decree also arrived. The colors on Di's face can be described as colorful. After everyone knelt down to accept the decree, the eunuch who announced the decree handed the Feng decree to Concubine Xie's hand, and then retreated and left.

Although she was not reconciled to Concubine Xie's promotion, the Crown Princess did not dare to complain, because it was the Queen's will, not the Prince's request for Concubine Xie. Not only could she not show dissatisfaction, but she had to like it Hold a banquet for side concubine Xie and congratulate her on being promoted to side concubine.

The next day the Crown Princess got up early, after washing and grooming, she held the female official's hand and went to Fenglin Hall. After massaging, her complexion changed, and then she stepped forward with a decent smile and said: "Greetings to the empress, and may the empress be blessed and safe."

When the queen heard the sound of greetings, she slowly opened her eyes and signaled Concubine Xie to stop the massage: "Princess, excuse me, you are a person with twin bodies now, don't take a good rest in the East Palace, come here early in the morning What's the matter!" Although the Queen's words were blaming, her tone was full of concern, but the Crown Princess didn't understand the deep meaning in it, she only said that the Queen was biased and didn't want to see her as a Crown Princess.

The Crown Princess was not justified, she didn't dare to show the slightest bit on her face, she still said respectfully: "When you return to your mother, I came here to thank my younger sister. Thanking my younger sister for her promotion is a happy event, and my son is pregnant. , This can be described as double happiness, so I want to hold a banquet, firstly to congratulate Prince Xie on the continuation of the incense, and secondly to celebrate sister Xie's promotion, it can be said to kill multiple birds with one stone."

"It's hard for you to be so generous. It's just that holding a banquet is a labor-intensive thing. You are only a month pregnant. The most critical moment is that you can't work hard. Otherwise, what should you do if your fetus moves!" The queen has known people for many years , who would not know the princess's little thoughts, so she tactfully vetoed it.

"I know the seriousness, so I dare not interfere with the banquet. Concubine Le has assisted the queen mother in managing the harem for many years. I wonder if I can ask Concubine Le to organize the banquet!" The princess still did not give up. thought.
