Delicate green plum dressed as the little emperor of green tea

Chapter 315 Secret
Zhang Yuan put his head on the ground, extremely humble.

If someone else said this, the emperor might still feel that he was being picky.

But Zhang Yuan was an honest man, and the emperor believed that he really felt that he was not worthy of An Ning.

This is also very normal, after all, with Zhang Yuan's background, he is indeed not worthy of Princess Anning.

Zhang Yuan's mentality is exactly what the emperor needs.

Only if he feels that he is not worthy of Princess Anning, then no matter how mischievous Princess Anning is in the future, Zhang Yuan will pamper her.

The most important thing is that Zhang Yuan, who was able to pass over the children of the aristocratic families who were carefully cultivated by you, and passed the high school examination last year, has some real talents.

He was introduced by the Xiehou Mansion, and he studied under the great Confucian Wang Zhongkang of the previous dynasty, and he did not have a particularly good relationship with the ministers of the various factions in the court.

It can be said that apart from the relationship between Zhang Yuan and Xie Chunxiao's adoptive mother and son, Zhang Yuan is a real poor student.

The emperor wanted to promote him, and Zhang Yuan's future would not be worse.

The emperor also heard the story of Zhang Yuan's father, who was also a very kind person. Zhang Yuan inherited his father's nature, and if An Ning married him, he would only treat An Ning well.

Considering all aspects, the emperor wanted to entrust Princess Anning to Zhang Yuan.

"I said you deserve it, so you deserve it." The emperor didn't give Zhang Yuan time to struggle, "The matter is settled like this, and when the princess comes back from illness, I will marry you."

Naturally, the emperor would not tell the outside world about Princess Anning and the Liang family boy going to Beixia. He only said that the princess was ill and she was recuperating in the Taoist temple.

Zhang Yuan received the imperial edict, feeling mixed feelings in his heart, some excited, some excited, but more still hesitant.

He has admired the princess in his heart for a long time, but he never thought that he could really marry the princess back.

He knew that the princess had someone else in her heart, Xie Shisun was a very good person, and he also wanted the princess to be with the person he liked.

But that's fine too.

Even if the two get married, if the princess still likes Xie Shisun, and Xie Shisun is willing to be with the princess, he can be a man of beauty.

For him, liking has never been more than possession.

When the emperor made such a decision, he naturally communicated with the empress.

After considering all aspects, the queen also felt that Zhang Yuan was a very pure and kind person, so she reluctantly agreed.

The most important thing is that An Ning has not been found yet!

Speaking of Princess Anning, the queen's resentment towards King Han deepened.

"Your Majesty, it's windy and cold today, and my concubine has some headaches. Let's go down and rest for a while." The queen looked bitter.

The emperor hurriedly said: "Do you have a serious headache? Do you want to call the imperial doctor?"

"No, it will be all right for the concubine to rest for a while." The queen smiled reassuringly at the emperor.

The palace servants helped the queen to the inner hall, but the queen did not lie down in a hurry, she sat on the soft couch with a strange expression on her face.

"Bring Concubine Li up here."

After a while, Concubine Li, with disheveled hair and crazy appearance, holding a straw doll in her arms, was brought up.

As a rare concubine with status in the palace, Concubine Li was promoted to beauty because she was pregnant in the 11th year of Chengqian.

At that time, the emperor had been on the throne for 11 years and had no male heirs, so he regarded Li Concubine's birth as very important.

The queen also stood by Li Pin's side day and night.

But it is a pity that after all, Concubine Li slipped a tire when the child was six months old.

From the empress dowager in the palace, the emperor including the empress had great hopes for this child.

But the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

After being disappointed, they can only accept the result.

The emperor is a benevolent princess, and after being disappointed, he also took pity on Concubine Li and promoted her from the position of beauty to concubine.

However, the loss of an heir was too painful for Concubine Li. After that, she was insane and seldom sane.

The queen did not let people treat Concubine Li harshly, and she has kept this concubine in the palace for so many years.

It wasn't until Xie Chunxiao reminded her two years ago that the queen noticed this Concubine Li again.

It's not that the queen doesn't know how to do things out of nothing, but she is always ruthless.

After all, the emperor himself gave up King Han himself.

The queen never thought about targeting King Han again.

However, last year, King Han threatened the emperor with her peace, which made the queen intolerable.

The empress had someone observe Concubine Li privately for two years, and she gained a little.

This Concubine Li is actually not insane.

The queen bought off the maid next to Concubine Li, which further confirmed the news.

"Concubine Li, come here and let me take a look at you." The queen propped up Concubine Li's jaw with her index finger, and smelled a foul smell, "After all these years, haven't you pretended enough? Are you afraid?" What?"

"I know that you are cowardly and cowardly by nature, and that bowl of miscarriage medicine almost killed you. You are afraid of death, and the people behind the scenes will also kill you, so you pretend to be crazy, don't you?"

Li Bin bit her finger and continued to play dumb.

"Okay, stop pretending." The queen was a little impatient, "You are wrong according to what I said, and I will keep you safe."

Concubine Li was born as a commoner. When the emperor had been on the throne for a long time without a male heir, the queen mother decided to take the lead in the selection process. This time, concubine Li was selected for the palace, not on talent and appearance, but on whether it was suitable to have an heir.

Li Bin looked at the queen with a naive smile, still pretending to be stupid.

"The maidservants behind you have told this palace." The queen continued: "Do you want to leave the palace?"

These words touched Li Bin's heart, she nodded quickly, then shook her head again.

Li Bin wanted to slap herself in the face angrily, after all, she was anxious.

"What the empress asks the concubine to do is probably not a good thing, and it will definitely offend people. In this way, even if the concubine leaves the palace, she may not be able to survive." It has been a long time since she said such a long word, and Li Concubine's voice was a little hoarse.

Seeing that she was no longer pretending to be stupid, the queen's eyes lit up.

"That's easy to say, I can send someone to take you to a safe place." In the eyes of the queen, this is not a problem at all.

"I want you to go out and identify in public. It was Concubine Shen and King Han who conspired to kill the child in your womb. Such a simple request should be easy for you to fulfill."

What the queen wants is very simple, that is, to completely eliminate the hope of King Han's succession.

For a prince who murdered his elder brother and heir, even if the emperor had to compromise for the sake of peace, the ministers would not agree to let King Han succeed him.

It is true that if King Han becomes angry and wants to tear up the ticket
The queen also has another bargaining chip in her hand.

Concubine Li thought for a while, and happily agreed to the queen, saying: "The concubine will go out now?"

The Queen nodded.

"But before going out, the concubine also wants to tell the queen something." Concubine Li frowned, and she approached the queen.

The queen sat back with some disgust.

Concubine Li also realized that she was a bit stinky, so she smiled shyly, "I think the empress only acts as a concubine because she is afraid of being wiped out by the concubine, so she pretends to be crazy, but in fact, the concubine is not afraid of the concubine, but the queen mother."
