Cuihua Palace.

The imperial concubine was lying on the couch with a tired look on her face.

She is not a person who likes to work hard. Although there were some tedious tasks in running the harem in the past, it was not as "lively" as in recent days.

After all, some people in the harem couldn't hold their breath anymore.

She is in this position, and there are actually very few people who want to compete with her.

The queen position has been empty for many years, and she can't move up. Moreover, she has no sons and a half, and it is not easy to have children at this age. She is a gorgeous screen wall in the harem, everyone can see her, and everyone just looks at her.

.

Who wants to compete to be a screen wall?

Aren’t they all going to the main hall?

The concubines in the harem are more willing to put their thoughts on the Holy Lord. In other words, they, especially those with the emperor's son in their arms, are staring at the prince.

There were a lot of rumors in the harem about what happened in the East Palace that day, but the Holy Master was in Cuihua Palace that day, and his father-in-law went back and forth twice, so that everyone wanted to find out some inside information from Cuihua Palace.

I could handle it a few days ago, but today it's really bothering me.

After all, the imperial concubine is not the lord of the middle palace, and she is impatient to call her sisters every day to say hello. For so many years, she has only visited the first and fifteenth day of the lunar month, two days a month.

Today is the fifteenth.

Mammy suggested that she should just admit her illness and give up, but the imperial concubine did not agree.

Her secretiveness here makes it more and more obvious that she knows the inside story, and it also makes the prince look more and more untenable.

In this former harem, His Royal Highness still needs to be there.

If the prince is stable, she can be more stable. Once the position of the Eastern Palace is shaken and the sisters in the harem start to struggle, life will be really difficult.

She cheered up and finished dealing with the concubine, smiling on her lips and sighing in her heart, but at least not a single bit of news came out of her own mouth.

Everyone left, leaving her lying on the couch for a full two-quarters of an hour before she regained some composure.

"If there is trouble in the harem, there will be trouble in the previous court, right?" the imperial concubine asked her mother softly.

Grandma said: "After all, I am already fifteen."

There is no need to say the next words, I understand them all in my heart.

The death anniversary of the late Empress is September 25th, and there are still ten days left.

Once the Holy Sage released the prince from confinement, the prince met with the Holy Sage and went back and forth. With the Holy Sage's love for the prince, he was afraid that the previous matters would be over.

After the chapter is over, who knows how long it will take for the prince to become a "farce"?

It would be best to take the opportunity to lock him up for a while and kill more of the prince's majesty, so that he can have a chance to make arrangements for his funeral.

There was nothing we could do about it. The prince's age made him stand out. The other princes were too young. It was hard to say whether they would be able to grow up to the prince's age without any illness or pain, let alone have the opportunity to compete with each other in the future.

"I heard that they were settling an old score," Mammy lowered her voice, "that His Highness was not sincere enough towards Duke Fu..."

The imperial concubine burst into laughter.

She had some guesses about how Duke Fu was injured, but after all, it was just a guess, and it had to be kept in her heart, and she would never say a word to the outside world.

In the same way, you have to be careful at the Qianbu Corridor.

If you guess wrong and use this to attack Li Shao, you are asking for trouble; if you guess right but you flip the accounts like this, you are violating the holy will, and the results may not be much, and you cannot escape your own misfortune.

After thinking about it, I can only talk about "attitude".

Xu Jian is the queen of Zhonglie.

The Duke of Fu has made great achievements in battle, and the old Duke is the backbone of the country.

Xu Jian himself was good at martial arts in the past, but now he is also good at writing. Moreover, he is young and will definitely accomplish something in the future.

His Highness the Crown Prince was quite "rebellious" towards such a minister with a good foundation and a promising future.

There is evidence of rebellion.

When the Ministry of Rites observed the government, there were conflicts between the two, and the prince was not willing to listen to Xu Jian's guidance.

This tiger bone incident is another piece of "evidence".

There has been a lot of controversy surrounding these issues.

"It's hard for them." The imperial concubine's smile was a bit mocking. "Everyone has his own master and tried his best to come up with such a rhetoric. I racked my brains."

While we were talking, someone came from outside and said that the message came from the Imperial Study Room and that the Holy Father was coming to have lunch at noon.

The imperial concubine's face grew long.

"Your Majesty is probably in a bad mood," Mammy advised. "Do you think he would blame the Duke and the princess?"

The imperial concubine shook her head: "No."

Being able to accompany you for many years and gaining deep trust, the imperial concubine understands your Majesty.

The Holy Sage looks at things in their entirety. At most, he may be a little angry, but far from blaming others. He rarely takes his anger out on anyone.

Although Ning'an asked Cining Palace to mention the tiger bone matter, the Holy Emperor was informed from the beginning.

The Holy Emperor himself nodded, and asked Eunuch Yu to ask Donggong to speak. It was also he who asked Eunuch Cao to go there. He was not an afterthought, but was always involved.

From the beginning to the end, the Holy Spirit didn't think there was anything wrong with this matter. So with this result, how could he leave himself alone and talk about others?

After all, no one expected His Highness to have such a reaction.

He really didn't want to give it, so he said it would be fine if he said it more nicely, but it didn't sound nice.

Although it was finally given, it was Eunuch Cao who went to ask for it, and the root was improperly preserved, which led to this.

Not to mention everyone else was dumbfounded, even the imperial concubine couldn't understand.

Why bother!

"Your Majesty, you must be more angry with the Crown Prince right now," said the Imperial Concubine.

This is really true.

In the royal study, Eunuch Cao carefully served the Holy Emperor.

In the morning, the courtiers were talking a lot, some were direct and some were roundabout, but no matter which path was taken, the people on the dragon throne knew clearly that the purpose was the same.

Duke Fu's injury is like a useful knife, anyone can use it to dance with.

Unfortunately, Duke Fu was still recuperating and still did not come to court.

It has to be said that the Holy One misses Xu Jian quite a lot.

If Xu Jian were there and saw all these people dancing with him, he didn't know what his reaction would be.

Nine times out of ten, you can't hold it anymore and have to watch it for a while.

To be honest, if you ask the Holy Spirit, he would feel more comfortable seeing Xu Jian as a person having fun rather than listening to long speeches with ulterior motives.

Thinking about Xu Jian like this, His Majesty couldn't help but think of what Xu Jian had said when Chen Mihu and colleague Chen Mihu sent the message.

The prince must be the prince.

If even such a favored prince can fall easily due to deliberate calculations, the subsequent struggle will become more intense, and everyone will want to take a gamble.

At that time, not only the prince, but also the other highnesses found it difficult to grow up safely.

Those words really spoke to His Majesty’s heart.

He has no intention of deposing the prince, and he also wants to get Xu Jian's ideas. He can see it clearly on the dragon throne.

Many people have selfish motives, he has them, and those old foxes who pretend to be confused even more.

He just admired Xu Jian.

You are very young, but you see it so clearly.

"You send someone to the Duke Fu's Mansion to visit Xu Jian," the Holy Sage told Eunuch Cao, "How are you doing at the East Palace these days?"

Eunuch Cao complained endlessly in his heart.

Eunuch Guo reported the results after sorting out the warehouse. Eunuch Cao looked at the list yesterday and his eyes were filled with stars.

Of all the relics of the late empress that were awarded to the East Palace, only half of them were undamaged, while another part had various degrees of damage, and nine of them could not be found at all.

What made Eunuch Cao even more stunned was that Eunuch Guo mentioned a vase.

The pattern of the vase itself is nothing, but the vase is dotted with eighteen pearls, and there are indeed many of them now, but Eunuch Guo is not sure whether those pearls are real or fake.

Eunuch Guo had it written all over his face that "little ones have no vision" and "little ones don't understand", and he wished that Eunuch Cao could judge.

Eunuch Cao was so angry that he didn't even take a bite of food last night.

He didn't dare to be angry with the prince. What he was angry with was the group of people who took care of the East Palace before.

But for a moment, Eunuch Cao didn't know how to speak to the Holy Father about these words.

He asked the warehouse to be inspected, and he knew it well. This number was really fatal.

After thinking about it, Eunuch Cao did not dare to show any clues on his face: "Everything is going well in the East Palace. I will send someone to assist the Duke's Mansion."
