Chapter 158: Curtain Red Makeup (7)

In the imperial study room bursts of sandalwood, with crushed ice cubes placed in the center, to sweep away the heat of this summer, Su Chen sat at the desk, looking at the mountains of memorials, his eyes were full of anger, he sneered He said to Mu Piaoyu: "These officials are interesting, and they send memorials to me every day with great joy, all of which are against the Third Prince's canonization as Prince."

"A baby who has only been born for a few days is canonized as a prince, which will naturally cause dissatisfaction in the court." Mu Piaoyu said it in a lukewarm way, making it impossible to see his true thoughts at all.

Su Chen casually threw the memorial in his hand on the table: "Among these dissatisfied people, do you include you?"

"This is the country where Wei is the emperor's country. Whoever the emperor wants to appoint as the crown prince will be the crown prince. The reason why the civil and military courts of the Manchu Dynasty objected is because Concubine Zhen was born as a maidservant."

"Then how can we solve the issue of the Third Prince's canonization as the crown prince?"

"Just give the third prince a legitimate reason."

"What does it mean to be justified?"

"Historically, the position of the crown prince has always been the position of the heir, and the eldest son without the heir. The third prince is not the eldest son, so the name is not right. Therefore, only the concubine Zhen is the queen, and the prince becomes the son. The matter of the three princes No one dares to object."

Hearing this, Su Chen's brows and eyes were full of smiles, and he slowly got up: "As expected of my brother who has known me for many years, you are the only one who understands my heart best."

"It is the duty of the minister to share the worries and solve the problems for the emperor."

"I really want to use this opportunity to make Concubine Zhen the empress." Su Chen's eyes were sharp, and he paced back and forth in the imperial study several times before continuing: "Actually, Concubine Shu is also under my consideration..."

Mu Piaoyu immediately interrupted: "The minister and concubine Shu have never coveted the position of empress, besides, she has nothing to do and her aptitude is still low, so the emperor doesn't need to consider her. I think that concubine Zhen not only gave birth to the third prince for the emperor, And she is the emperor's favorite, she is the perfect choice for the empress."

"With your support, it will be much easier to handle the affairs of the queen." After Su Chen finished speaking, he suddenly coughed a few times, and asked after a while: "What are you looking for today?"

"I heard that Concubine Jing gave birth last night, she is a prince." Mu Piaoyu said lightly.

When Su Chen heard this, his eyes darkened: "I owe her a lot."

Mu Piaoyu continued: "I know that what the emperor is worried about is that Concubine Jing wants to take the throne because she has a prince. If Concubine Jing's child becomes the crown prince, it will inevitably lead to a war. But now Concubine Jing is already a prince. With a body of guilt, even if she gave birth to the prince, it is still impossible to get involved in the country of Wei. The emperor ordered the amnesty of the world when the third prince was born. Whether the crimes of Concubine Jing can be pardoned together is a great deal for Qi. favor."

Su Chen felt that Mu Piaoyu's words were reasonable, and these days he was also thinking about finding an excuse to let Shi Jingrou be released from confinement, confinement Shi Jingrou was just a stopgap measure: "It's okay, just when I decided to amnesty the world, let's pardon it. "Suddenly thought of something again, and added: "There is also Concubine Duan who is confined in Qinghe Palace, and she is also pardoned."
-
Five days later, Shi Jingrou from Lanting Waterside Pavilion was released and re-entered the Jianjia Palace, but the Jianjia Palace today is not as good as before. Although it is still dazzling, it is no longer as lively as before. The only ones are the palace people who come in and go out.This is true for the noble concubine, but the concubine Duan's palace is even more deserted after the foot ban is lifted.
