The Legend of Rebirth of the Demon Empress

Chapter 137 Growth
Before Cao Shouli left, Xie Xi forced him to hold him back, and said with a smile: "Eunuch Cao, let's go to the emperor's place and see what orders the queen mother has."

Cao Shouli also laughed, and said, "Your Majesty will obey your Highness' orders."

The two went to the emperor's bedroom together, Lin Zisu stood by the emperor's side, while the empress sat on the side in a daze.

Hearing the two people coming in, the queen had an uneasy expression on her face.

Xie Xi was puzzled, and felt that things were a little weird today.

My own empress mother has always been cold, and she doesn't cause trouble in the palace, she is even more low-key than Concubine Tang Zhuang and her like.

It stands to reason that the emperor is still in a coma and has not established any crown prince, so the empress is the most noble existence in the harem.

Apart from the emperor's condition, there should be no one she should be afraid of.

Xie Xi glanced in Lin Zisu's direction, and saw Lin Zisu nodded slightly, and then gave him a smile.

This is the emperor's illness, is it a big problem?
Lin Zisu's smile gave Xie Xi inexplicable confidence.

He said to Cao Shouli: "Eunuch Cao, Emperor Father is still in a coma. These few days need to bother Empress Mother and Miss Lin, so we don't need to bother them anymore."

Cao Shouli didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Xie Xi's gourd, he was obviously the one who pulled him here, and he turned around and left without saying a word.

Cao Shouli was about to leave Qianqing Palace with Xie Xi when a familiar voice came from behind.

"Little Si, Shouli, you come up and talk."

Both of them were taken aback, and when they looked back, they saw the emperor sitting firmly on the edge of the bed with piercing eyes.

The sun outside the window was hidden in the clouds, and the wind passed through the pavilion, wrinkling a pool of clear water.

That night Fang Luan, Marquis of Weiyuan, entered the palace in a hurry, begging to see the queen.

However, the queen politely declined Weiyuanhou's request on the grounds that it was getting late and it was not in accordance with the etiquette system.

Fang Luan, Marquis of Weiyuan, immediately knelt at the gate of Qianqing Palace, loudly recounting the achievements of the emperor over the years.

Of course, if you listen carefully, you can tell that Fang Luan was involved in or led all these incidents.

For example, the battle of Yuanzhou City back then was the emperor's first big victory after succeeding to the throne, and the leader of this big victory was Fang Luan.

Another example is the bandit suppression in Guanzhong. Fang Luan wiped out all the bandits in Guanzhong.

It was quiet in the bedroom, except for a few eunuchs, namely the empress and Lin Zisu, who were watching the emperor's every move.

The emperor heard Fang Luan's words clearly, and the more he heard it, the more ugly his face became.

Fang Luan was relying on his little skill, and he was thinking of taking advantage of the empress, so as to force the palace to intervene in politics.

If Fang Luan raised troops to force the palace, the emperor would still admire his courage.

A military general from a noble family actually learned the tricks of those civil servants, using long knees to gain fame.

Hearing Fang Luan's voice getting louder and louder, the emperor had nowhere to vent his dissatisfaction, so he said to Lin Zisu, "Listen, this Fang Luan was considered a character when he was young, but after so many years, he hasn't made any progress at all. Still trust him."

After all, they were father and daughter in the previous life. Although she knew that Fang Luan didn't have much affection in her heart, Lin Zisu didn't want Fang Luan to make trouble for her.

Lin Zisu said immediately: "The Marquis of Weiyuan was eager to make achievements in the past, so he opened up the territory and made great achievements for His Majesty. Now that he has achieved fame, he is proud of his identity and reputation, and his actions are bound. It is not your Majesty's belief. Wrong person, it's not that Marquis Weiyuan didn't make progress, it's just that he was burdened by fame and had to do so."

After hearing this, the emperor deeply agreed with her words, turned to the queen and asked, "Queen, Su Yatou's words are quite right."

The queen has always abided by the ancestral system, and has never cared too much about court affairs. When the emperor asked her, she hurriedly responded: "Your Majesty has just recovered, so you don't have to take the words of people like Fang Luan to heart."

The emperor shook his head slightly, and Luan Xuxu's voice from outside the Qianqing Palace came again in his ears.

He understood Fang Luan's purpose in his heart, and said to the queen, "Queen, go and listen to what this Fang Luan has to say."

Not long after, Fang Luan appeared in a side hall of Qianqing Palace.

The queen sat upright at the head, temporarily pulling a veil in front of her to avoid suspicion.

Fang Luan had been waiting outside Qianqing Palace for more than an hour, and he was already impatient. If he hadn't patted his chest in front of Xie Yao and promised, he would have turned around and left a long time ago.

He had just greeted the queen, and then impatiently explained his reason for coming.

With anger in his heart, Fang Luan was not very polite. He first analyzed the current situation, and then politely criticized the queen.

The queen frowned secretly, she didn't care about Fang Luan's analysis of the court situation.What she cared about was that Fang Luan, a mere foreign minister, dared to criticize herself so much and spread the word, how could she continue to be a queen!

The emperor was right, this Fang Luan really didn't make much progress!
"Marquis Weiyuan, why did you come to see me so late?"

Hearing the queen's bad words, Marquis Weiyuan was a little respectful and said: "Your Majesty is in a high position, you should think about the community. Your Majesty is seriously ill now. I ask your Majesty to take charge of the overall situation and determine the candidate for the next East Palace as soon as possible."

The queen didn't refuse immediately, and asked again: "Which prince do you think Weiyuanhou can take on?"

The Queen's attitude gave Fang Luan great confidence. He had always heard that this Queen Liang was not enthusiastic about the affairs of the previous dynasty.

When he entered the palace, he had imagined countless situations, but he did not expect that the empress would release the tone of agreement so quickly.

He raised his head, and said loudly towards the curtain: "His Royal Highness the Second Prince has always been benevolent and filial, and has the air of being a master. I invite the Second Prince to be the heir apparent, so that the world can be trusted!"

The queen had another opinion on Fang Luan, as she was the eighth prince's aunt.In front of him, he asked for the establishment of the second prince so straightforwardly, is it expected that he would not dare to speak out against it?
Fortunately, the emperor is safe and sound, otherwise, I, an orphan and widow, wouldn't be bullied to death by these people.

The Empress was about to refuse, when Marquis Weiyuan said again: "I have a memorial here, and there are fifteen commanders and envoys on it. Please make His Royal Highness the Second Prince the East Palace."

There are a total of 21 capitals under the Dudufu of Dayan Five Armies, which control the military affairs of each province.

Fang Luan took out the joint names of fifteen commanders and envoys, which shocked the queen.

She threw the ball to the cabinet on the grounds that she could not make the decision.

When the queen resigned from Fang Luan, the emperor's face was gloomy and terrible, and he said in a cold voice, "Since Fang Luan is so impatient, you should summon the cabinet tomorrow in the name of the queen to discuss the establishment of a reserve."
