Chapter 155 Double Imperial Concubine (2)

The emperor hesitated for a moment: "The queen is still here, but the imperial concubine is not here. The noble concubine is second only to the empress in honor. Suqiu is still so young, so it is too early to be promoted rashly... Is it too early?"

The imperial concubine said: "Suqiu is your cousin and the biological mother of the eldest princess. Looking at the entire harem, she is the only one who gave birth to your child safely. She has both kinship and childbirth. Isn't she worthy?" A concubine?"

The emperor thought for a while, and finally sighed: "Forget it, the noble concubine is the noble concubine."

When the imperial concubine heard the words, she smiled, and immediately glanced at Concubine An: "Hurry up and thank you!"

An Pin was overjoyed and quickly kowtowed to thank her.

Linglong saw everything in her eyes and couldn't help thinking.

Concubine An was plotted against last year. Given the biological mother-child relationship between the empress dowager and the emperor, if the emperor pleaded with his old face, the emperor might not have released Concubine An's restraint and restored her status.

But the imperial concubine didn't do that, but chose to investigate the truth behind her back, probably for today's sake.

If there were no various grievances of being wronged and grounded before, how could it be easy to exchange for the position of a noble concubine?
She further thought that the empress had been framed twice in a row, and her successor was already in jeopardy. If the emperor decreed to abolish the empress, she would have to establish a successor.

According to the royal etiquette, the emperor's successor is usually selected from the concubine with the highest rank in the harem, so the empress dowager thought about this and asked the emperor to add An Suqiu as a noble concubine, probably for the sake of calculating the future successor position Bar.

It's just that no matter how good the wishful thinking is, if the Queen Mother disagrees, it will be useless.

Linglong glanced at An Bin and coughed heavily.

The emperor immediately came to his senses, realizing that he hastily agreed to Jin's request to become a noble concubine without discussing it with the queen mother, and couldn't help being a little embarrassed.

Immediately, Linglong looked at the palace people kneeling on the ground, and said sharply: "Who said that the rumors came from Xianfu Palace just now, come out to me quickly?"

The two little eunuchs who testified against An Pin for spreading rumors came out, knelt on the ground with a plop, and tremblingly said: "Damn you, damn you!"

Linglong yelled: "You people, it's fine to gossip about your tongue on weekdays, but now you dare to wrong the master, I will never let you go, come here, drag these two slaves down and beat them forty times. Be a warning to others!"

The reason why these two slaves were dealt with was not because they casually slandered Concubine An, but because they were afraid that the emperor would think of them later, and in a fit of rage they would be executed. The two of them confessed to Sun Bin in order to save their lives.

Once Sun Bin is confessed, the empress will be less charged, and it will be even more difficult to facilitate the abolition of the empress in the future.

The emperor wanted to kill these two gossiping slaves, but seeing that Linglong had already dealt with them as the empress's authority, he couldn't say anything more, so he waved his hand and said, "Procrastinate."

The imperial concubine gave Linglong a sideways look, and said with a cold snort: "Concubine Li is indeed vigorous and resolute, but Suqiu is already a noble concubine, so there is no difference in respect. From now on, we will take care of the harem together. The Ai family also hopes that you can respect her."

Linglong Wanshun said: "Yes!"

Hmph, it's not that easy to be a noble concubine, let's go through the empress dowager first.

The emperor followed the principle of ruling the world with filial piety. All concubines who were canonized above the lord of the first palace had to ask the queen mother first. Only the queen mother agreed to be promoted. If the queen mother did not agree, no matter how high the position was, they would not be granted the title.
