"I went to see An'er today. The child has been abused by the slaves for more than a month. He has many bumps and scratches on his body. His clothes look clean and tidy on the outside, but everything on the inside is dirty and torn. Those dogs The food even took up his meal, so I put the leftovers on a small plate and gave them to him!"

Speaking of what he saw today, Pei Yao couldn't suppress his anger.

During this period of time to clean up the Yang family, he also neglected to take care of the third prince. Unexpectedly, when those servants saw that the Nanning Marquis made a big mistake and were punished all over the family, and Concubine Yang was also thrown into the cold palace and sentenced to death, they all felt that the emperor He no longer valued the third prince born by the Yang family, so he became disrespectful and abused him everywhere.

"The Queen follows the palace rules, and I don't think it's enough. I've already had people beat her to death with sticks and throw her out of the palace. This kind of person is just a moth if she stays in the palace!"

When he said this, Fang Yun did not tell him to calm down, but instead talked about what he knew.

"How can one not be angry when something like this happens? I thought it was the second princess who refused to bring the third prince to Yuzhang Palace, so she asked the third prince to follow her quietly, causing her to fall and get injured. I never thought to ask more about it. Afterwards, both the eldest prince and the second princess said they did not know that the third prince was coming. The two children even told the concubine that the third prince had been hungry at noon every day for a long time, and the servant who brought lunch had not come for a long time. "

After hearing this, Pei Yao also snorted coldly.

"Those bitches took over the master's food and even bothered to gamble and have fun. They deserve to be damned!"

"Yes, the third prince is already weak. He needs to take good care of his body. How can he withstand their neglect? It's really pitiful. Although the Yang family is at fault, the child is innocent."

Fang Yun sighed lightly.

Hearing her mention the Yang family, Pei Yao's eyes were thoughtful for a moment.

After a moment of silence, he said, "Mr. Yang is a sinner, but the third prince is still my son. He cannot have a sinner as his mother. When he grows up, Yang's affairs will make him criticized."

"The emperor said this because he wants to find another adoptive mother for the third prince?" Fang Yun asked.

Pei Yao nodded, "You are smart, and you can always guess my thoughts. In your opinion, who in the harem is the most suitable to raise the third prince?"

When he said this, Fang Yun didn't hide it, he went straight to the point.

"Today, when I went to visit the third prince in Song Lingyi's palace, I saw that the third prince was very dependent on Song Lingyi. During this period, everyone was avoiding Yang's affairs, but she could still have love for the third prince. With a sincere heart, there is no shyness.”

"Your Majesty knows that I have always been at odds with the Yang family, but Song Lingyi is on good terms with me. However, she did not hesitate. She still stood up for the third prince this time. I feel that Song Lingyi has a kind heart and is suitable to raise children."

Pei Yao naturally knew what happened today, and he was also satisfied with Song Lingyi's performance.

In his mind, he had two choices for raising the third prince.

Song Lingyi and Wan Lingyi.

Because Pei Yao was worried that Fang Yun would be a little unhappy that the third prince was Yang's child, he was unwilling to let Song Lingyi raise him.

Now that Fang Yun heard what he said, he immediately nodded.

"You are right. I have seen over the years that Ms. Song has become much calmer around you and has always been on good terms with you. Although her family background is not obvious, she is also an innocent scholar. I heard that her younger brother also had Going to the northern Xinjiang military camp with Liu Qin for training is considered a hardship."

"Since the emperor is also interested in Song Lingyi, I think it would be better to settle this matter earlier. The third prince is now weak and frightened. The weather is getting colder and colder, and he is more susceptible to diseases. He really needs someone to take careful care of him."

Fang Yun said smoothly from the side, paused and said again.

"It's just a rule of our court that no one below the concubine's position can raise an heir, as Song Lingyi does."

"It doesn't matter, just consider it for the sake of the third prince, and give her the concubine position. She has been in the palace for a long time, and she has helped a lot by your side."

Pei Yao waved his hand and it was settled.

Early the next morning, everyone in the palace knew that Song Lingyi had been promoted to Song Concubine and was going to raise the third prince.Fengxuan Palace.

After the queen got up in the morning and changed her clothes and makeup, she learned about this from Yan Li.

"The Song family picked up a son for nothing." The queen's voice was calm, "In this way, the imperial concubine has three princes in her hands."

Tian Mo pursed his lips, "I don't know if the emperor gave the third prince to Song Lingyi to raise him because of Concubine Zhao."

"Yes, not entirely."

The queen chose a pair of red gold and ruby ​​earrings and put them on without haste.

"The emperor values ​​his heirs. The emperor will definitely be impressed by what Song Lingyi did for the third prince yesterday. The third prince has the blood of the Yang family. Although the emperor is not unhappy, he certainly does not have high hopes for the third prince. Therefore, when looking for an adoptive mother for the third prince, we will not choose someone with a prominent background, and Song Lingyi is suitable."

The most important thing is that if there is no accident, Song Lingyi will not have a biological child of his own, so he will be more devoted to the third prince who will rely on him in the future.

Minsi handed over the phoenix hairpin and whispered, "What the Empress said is true, but the servants are worried that Concubine Zhao has gone too far to win over the harem's people, and she has become disrespectful to the Empress."

"The eldest prince has been studying for several years, which shows that his qualifications are mediocre. Concubine Jin is not favored by her family, so there is nothing to be afraid of. Not to mention the third prince, the emperor is taboo against the Yang family. Unless he grows up in the future and is extremely ambitious, he will not be able to be a great prince. In the end, in the final analysis, the fifth prince may be able to compete with the fifth prince in the future, but for now, only the fourth prince can earn this big position."

The queen calmly dispelled the worries in the hearts of the two maids.

As the legitimate daughter of the Lu family, from the crown prince to the mother of the middle palace, the queen is confident in herself.

As long as nothing happens to his mother's family, and she wholeheartedly teaches the fifth prince to be a good boy with both talents and virtues, and Pei Yao is not deceived by anyone, then his position as prince will not be taken away by others.

At present, she is completely sure about the first two, but she is not sure about the last one. Looking at it now, Fang Yun has not done anything to confuse the king, and the others don't matter.

After listening to the Queen's words, Min Si and Tim Mo looked at each other and knew that the Queen had a plan in mind, so they said nothing more.

When everyone outside arrived, he supported the queen to attend.

When she came out, Concubine Jin was happily talking to Song Lingyi outside.

"Congratulations, sister. You can be granted the title of concubine and you can also raise an heir. This is a great joy."

"I thank you, Imperial Concubine Jin. Your Majesty trusts me. I am deeply moved. I have nothing to do in return. I can only take good care of the third prince so as not to disappoint the Emperor."

Song Lingyi was still respectful.

Wan Lingyi also said politely at this time, "Empress Song is so lucky to be able to raise the third prince, which also shows that the empress and the third prince are destined to be mother and son."

"It hasn't been officially canonized yet. It's just a verbal instruction. Wan Lingyi, please don't call me that." Song Lingyi smiled.

At this time, the queen came out and said with a gentle smile.

"The emperor has already issued an oral decree. The imperial edict of canonization will be sent to Jinrong Palace soon. You don't have to be so humble. You have served the emperor for many years and you are worthy of the concubine position."

Hearing the Queen's voice, everyone stood up and saluted together.

The queen sat down, waved her hand to excuse everyone, and said again.

"It just so happens that Concubine Zhao's canonization ceremony has not yet been held. The Ministry of Rites has chosen a good day in half a month. Lucky days are rare, so why not hold the canonization ceremony for you two together?"
