Is the emperor cremated today?

"I don't understand what's wrong with this. It's nothing more than the selfishness of our prince. He still thinks that you are a dirty kid who can be manipulated by him!"

In the Qinzheng Hall, Chen Fengling was drinking tea leisurely with a teacup in her hand. She didn't seem to care at all about the treasonous words she said. However, she frightened Zhu Weng who was accompanying him so much that he coughed and glanced at Xiao Qi. Several glances.

Xiao Qi glanced at Chen Fengling who was not paying attention, took the tea from Zhu Weng, and asked Zhu Weng to go out. For a while, only the emperor and his ministers were left in the palace.

Chen Fengling saw that there were only two of them in the hall, and saw Xiao Qi lowering his head to drink tea like a normal person. There was nothing strange in his expression. She thought to herself, Xu Miaoyin really didn't make trouble with him? According to his understanding of these two people, he shouldn't. It would be so peaceful.

"You have already made the decree to accept the concubine, but the imperial concubine didn't make trouble with you?"

Xiao Qi finished drinking the tea and put the tea cup aside, then picked up the memorial book at hand and started reviewing it. He looked unwilling to pay attention to him. Chen Fengling saw that the person above him was unwilling to pay attention to her and just touched her nose. Today's After discussing the matter, he stood up and prepared to leave, but just as he stood up, he heard Xiao Qi, who was in charge, say: "There is no need for Qiao Zhi to take any action for the time being. Wait and see, you have stayed at the Ministry of Finance long enough." Now, it’s time to take action.”

Chen Fengling is the emperor's confidant. After this trip to the south of the Yangtze River, it has been made clear, so simply give him a better position.

Chen Fengling had a headache when she heard this. She probably would have to get scolded by the old man again when she went back. Chen Shangshu always insisted on keeping a low profile. If His Majesty insisted on putting him in the spotlight, he would become the target of public criticism.

But he couldn't help but accept this favor.

Chen Fengling thanked him, saluted and left the Qinzheng Hall.

All the way back to the Yamen, he saw his chief attendant standing at the door of the household department, with a bit of anxiety on his face. He seemed to hear footsteps, turned around and saw his third young master walking towards him, and the chief attendant greeted him casually. After taking a few steps, he quickly reported: "Third Young Master, Third Young Madam has fainted. Madam wants you to go back quickly!"

Chen Fengling frowned, said a few words to Chang Sui, then turned around and walked out.

When he returned to the Chen Mansion, he went straight to his courtyard. As soon as he entered his and Zhuang's bedroom, he saw that Xu and his second sister-in-law were still in the house. The foot he had just stepped in retracted. He turned around and went to the study, changed out of his official uniform and put on his regular clothes before returning to the main room, where he happened to meet Mrs. Xu who had just pulled out the curtain.

Mrs. Xu looked at the sky and expected that he was coming back from the Yamen in a hurry. She heard his footsteps just now, so she sent her second daughter-in-law to go back first. She was waiting for him here.

Mrs. Xu took her youngest son's arm, walked a few steps away, and then said, "You have come back just in time. Please comfort your wife. The doctor just came to see her. She is just a little weak in energy and blood. Don't worry."

Chen Fengling breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you for taking the trouble, mother."

Mrs. Xu looked at the door of the room and said, "Your wife is suffering from a heart disease. Go in and comfort her. If you have anything to say, please speak slowly."

Mrs. Xu patted his hand and left with all the servants.

When Chen Fengling saw that everyone was gone, she turned around and entered the room. When she walked around the screen, she saw Mr. Zhuang leaning on the bedside. His face was a little pale, his eyebrows were downcast and he didn't know what he was thinking. His expression was sad.

Seeing her delicate expression, Chen Fengling felt a little more pity in her heart. She sat on the edge of the bed, took her hand and held it in hers. Only then did she see Mr. Zhuang slowly raising his eyes to look at her, his eyes full of guilt and self-blame. "Husband, it's all my fault. I've been married to you for so long, but there's been no movement at all."

Chen Fengling shook her hand and said softly: "We are still young, don't worry, why should we hurt our bodies by taking those bitter medicines? What's more, the two sisters-in-law have already given birth to children for the Chen family. This is a matter of continuing the family line." There is no need for you to bear the burden, you just need to take good care of yourself and we can live a good life together."

It was okay not to mention this, but when I mentioned that Mrs. Zhuang was even more sad, her eyes were red. She was also present when her mother told the imperial concubine to spread her branches and leaves for the royal family. She said it was for the imperial concubine, why not for the imperial concubine? I heard that both my sisters-in-law had children, but she kept silent. How could this not make people worried? It was really helpless, so she went to her mother-in-law to inquire about the secret recipe for giving birth in private. After taking the medicine, not only did she not get any news at all. No, it broke my body.

"I just want to have our child, why is it so difficult?" said Zhuang and started crying.

Chen Fengling saw that instead of persuading the person, she made the person cry, even more so, "Okay, don't cry. I'll be out for two months. It's strange that you are pregnant. I promise." You, if I work harder in the future, you will always be able to get pregnant."

When Mrs. Zhuang saw that he was talking nonsense, her pretty face turned red. She also forgot about crying and hit him on the chest, and then she slowly stopped crying.

When Chen Fengling saw that the person had stopped crying, she hugged the person into her arms and spoke private words between husband and wife.

While the two of them were talking in this room, someone outside the room reported that a message from the imperial concubine had been sent from the palace.

Zhuang took a look at the post, was stunned, and said: "The imperial concubine is really generous. You see, not long after your majesty's decree was issued, the imperial concubine invited all the ladies from Beijing to come to the palace to enjoy the flowers in three days." .”

Chen Fengling was a little surprised. Apart from the surprise, she felt that it was somewhat expected. According to Xu Miaoyin's temperament, it was not so easy to spare Xiao Qi.

"Just wait, there will definitely be something good to watch at the flower viewing party in three days, so don't go and take good care of yourself at home."

But Mrs. Zhuang shook her head and said with a smile: "It's okay. As a member of my mother's family, and this is my mother's first banquet, I always have to support her. Besides, you also said that if there is a good show to watch, then it will be even better." It’s time to go.”

Chen Fenglin squeezed Mr. Zhuang's hand helplessly, and then thought about the expression on the palace's face when he heard the news, and felt that the saying that one thing brings down another is really true.

Xiao Qi, who learned the news, was not as calm as Chen Fengling. Although he was forced to decide on the draft, the idea of ​​having his beloved help him choose his wife still made him feel a lump in his throat, and there was an unknown fire in his heart. With nowhere to vent, all the ministers were suffering, and they all speculated whether there was something wrong in their hands. This made the emperor on the dragon throne so frowning, and they all reported the matter cautiously, for fear of offending him. The Usha on his head could not be saved, and he lost his life again.

After finally finishing the discussion, several ministers wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads when they left the Qinzheng Palace. Although they were a little embarrassed, they all walked out of the palace tacitly. Only when they returned home did they find out that the imperial concubine was given to the lady in the capital. They all posted, and they all thought for a moment that it was because His Majesty was having a rowdy dinner at the Imperial Concubine’s place, and he became so cold-faced for the whole day. It seemed that Your Majesty was also a henpecked person, and they all called their wives to come over and give instructions on how to enjoy the flower-viewing banquet. You must not offend the imperial concubine.

Xiao Qi didn't know that he had a reputation for being henpecked. He was still competing with himself. Late at night, he neither went to Fengyi Palace nor reviewed the memorials. He sat alone in the dark pavilion, They were not allowed to light the lamps. It was going to snow now. What would happen if His Majesty got frozen.

Zhu Weng was anxious outside the palace, so he had no choice but to ask Maotian to go to Fengyi Palace to ask the imperial concubine to come and comfort her, but the news he got was that the imperial concubine had already fallen asleep.

So, the day of the flower viewing feast arrived.
