Strong Woman: The Secret Service Concubine

Chapter 93 Give Me a Child

"You're right. I'm going to..." The queen was about to say something, but she shook her head suddenly, "No. I can't bring this up on my own initiative."

"Since ancient times, the harem has been forbidden to interfere in politics. Now the only one who can make a proposal in this court without being refuted by the emperor is..."

"Queen—" the two said in unison.

"Hehe, Madam, the tacit understanding between you and Fujin is getting better and better. You can think of it together."

Qingyun's words made the queen hold Rouyue's hand and said: "I am liking Rouyue more and more now. She is smart and sensible. I am relieved to have such a person by my side."

"The empress's love for Rouyue is really beyond Rouyue's repayment."

"You silly child, why don't you report it? You are the mother of my grandson. I am thanking you, so why not rush? Well, you go back and rest first, and I will give it to the Queen Mother later. Please be well."

"Yes, Rouyue is leaving." Rouyue said and slowly backed out. She turned her head and squinted at the queen, the corners of her lips raised uncontrollably. This plan was getting closer.

Occasionally, two or three coughs from the Empress Dowager could be heard in the Palace of Compassion and Ning.

"My queen, are you all right?"

"It's okay, but it's just a few coughs and it's not a big deal. Hey, Ai's family is getting old, so it's fine if Xiao Qi and Xin Yu don't come now, and even the queen and emperor don't come to pay their respects."

The servant next to the queen mother smiled and replied: "Queen mother, you miss them, why don't the servants send someone to tell the queen to come?"

"Forget it, this forced melon is not sweet, so what can I do if I call it?" It's just following my own will, so what's the use if I didn't come here sincerely?
"The empress is here—"

The guard's pass made the Queen Mother and Mo Yan beside him look at each other and smile.This really means that Cao Cao is coming!
"The concubine joins the mother's queen, and the mother's queen is blessed."

The queen mother looked at the queen, smiled and waved her hands and said, "Queen, get up. Mo Yan, go make a pot of good tea."

"Yes."

"Mother, how are you when you come in?"

"It's still the same, sometimes it's a bit boring to stay alone in this huge palace." The queen mother is telling the truth. She has competed with all the women in the palace since she first entered the palace, and then competed for the throne for her own children. First of all, she is now the empress dowager, but now she realizes that she is really lonely. Is this what people often say about being too cold at a high place?

"The queen mother atones for her sins. Too many things have happened in the harem these days, and the queen mother has been neglected."

The queen mother looked at the lost queen, frowned and asked: "Aijia's disease is that he doesn't hear things outside the window. Queen, you can tell Aijia today." The queen had something to say to him, and she said How can you not see it.

"Yes." The empress briefly explained what happened between the seventh prince and the second prince.

"What? You said that the seventh prince assassinated the second prince, and Luo Feng is still awake?" Well, why didn't anyone tell her about such a big thing?How could the empress dowager know that the emperor was afraid that if the empress dowager knew the news would make her condition worse, so he kept it from her.

"Yes, I didn't want to tell the Queen Mother about these things. But the concubine really came to you because she had no choice."

"What happened again?"

"Actually, the second prince is being treated now, and the seventh prince is also being punished. But today, those ministers and emperors simply punished the seventh prince, and none of them obeyed. It's not like the court is quarreling, the emperor I can't stand it just looking at it."

"Well, what should I do? Although these old officials are pedantic, what they say is not unreasonable. This time, Xiao Qi is really bold and reckless. Let him learn a lesson."

"Queen Mother, why don't you just ignore it? Those ministers want to abolish the title of the Seventh Prince and relegate him to a commoner."

"Presumptuousness—whoever abolishes the title of the royal prince can be abolished? Aijia should take a good look at who is so bold?" Although this mouth made the Seventh Prince suffer a little bit, when the queen mother heard that someone was To bully his grandson, this is the first person to stand up again.

"Queen Mother, the matter right now is not to argue with those ministers. After all, the Seventh Prince was at fault in this matter first. We must find a way to stop the mouths of these ministers."

"What's the queen's opinion?"

"Recently, there have been frequent invasions by the enemy at the border. If we let the Seventh Prince commit crimes and meritorious deeds to calm down the people here. If so, the ministers will naturally have no excuses to embarrass them."

"Go and settle the border?" Although the Queen Mother is deaf to the outside world, she still understands under such circumstances. Now that the minister has proposed to establish a crown prince, although the emperor suppressed it, it will definitely not be delayed for long. long time.Once the Seventh Prince leaves, isn't it because he wants to miss the matter of establishing the crown prince?She also understands why the queen can leave if she likes the seventh prince, so that her child will definitely have an extra chance of winning.It's just that if you don't follow the queen's suggestion now, Xiao Qi may be in danger.

"Yes! Only in this way can the mouths of these ministers be blocked."

The queen mother frowned. Although the queen was selfish, she was right in some respects.This time Xiao Qi made such a big mistake, and this time will be the time when he will become the crown prince in the future, so he might be caught by such an old minister.If Xiaoqi made meritorious deeds, the merits and demerits would be offset, and there would be no such thing as unfaithful or filial son.Let's weigh this, let's talk about helping Xiao Qi pass the current level.

"What you said is indeed good. You should step down first, and let the Ai family think about this matter carefully."

The empress knew that her fire was already on fire, as to whether it would burn out, it depended on the empress dowager's decision.

The queen mother looked at the queen's leaving back and sighed: "Mo Yan, I'm afraid there will be no peace in this palace again."

"Queen, this is also the only way for the princes to go. But right now, I still feel that it is better to relieve the Seventh Prince."

"You are right, let's go quickly."

Above the court, the two factions that have been arguing for a long time without any results, still have no results, and are still arguing non-stop.

"The Queen Mother arrives—"

This announcement finally made those ministers pause for a while, and they all knelt down and shouted: "Auspicious Queen Mother."

"Get up."

The emperor looked at the queen mother strangely, "Queen mother, why are you here?" He blocked the recent news of the court from the queen mother, so as not to worry about the queen mother.

"The Ai family heard that the officials in the court were arguing endlessly, so they came to see it. Originally, the harem was not allowed to interfere in politics, but now that something like this has happened, the Ai family has no choice but to come forward."

The ministers heard what the queen mother said, and asked, "Then what is the queen mother's opinion?"

"Then I don't know what the empress dowager thinks?"

The queen mother smiled slightly when she heard this, looked at Zhang Yuqing and asked: "My lord, there are frequent enemy troops coming to the frontier right now, have you ever thought about who will send troops?"

"This..." Zhang Yuqing heard the queen mother ask such a question, and was really unable to say it for a while. "Queen, the ideal candidate is the second prince, but now that the second prince has become like this, I'm afraid..."

"What? Could it be that the only person who can lead troops to fight in such a huge dynasty as the Tiansheng Dynasty is the Second Prince?"

"No, that's not what I mean." Zhang Yuqing knelt on the ground in fright when the queen mother asked such a rhetorical question.She couldn't help crying in her heart, the empress dowager was clearly targeting herself with an excuse.

"As a courtier, this can't help the emperor solve the problem. Instead, there is such a quarrel here. Have you read the book of the Holy Son for nothing?"

"I know I was wrong——"

The queen mother looked at the officials, sighed, and waved her hands: "Forget it, get up. The Ai family also knows that this happened suddenly, and it is normal for you to not be able to think of any good ideas at this moment. But this matter has priorities. You are not in a hurry here, but you are very concerned about the matter of the Seventh Prince..." The Queen Mother saw that there was a minister who wanted to refute, and waved her hand and said: "Of course, the Ai family also knows that the Seventh Prince is here. What you have done is really too much, don't say you ministers can't stand it, even the Ai family and the emperor can't stand it."

"Queen Mother..." the emperor yelled in disbelief after listening to the Queen Mother's words.

The Empress Dowager also stretched out her hand without turning her head to signal not to speak too much, since it is not good for the emperor to say anything if he has something to say.

"The Ai family thinks it over and over again, this time the Seventh Prince made a big mistake, and the current war here cannot be delayed, let the Seventh Prince take the blame and make meritorious deeds, and go to quell the chaos here."

"The empress dowager is wise—" the ministers hurried down the ladder given by the empress dowager after hearing what the empress dowager said.After all, they really couldn't think of any suitable candidates here.

"Empress, the Seventh Prince has no experience in marching and fighting. Is it too hasty to ask him to practice?" If Luo Yang leaves at this time, the empress might attack him secretly.

"Emperor, you need to practice because you don't know how to do it. Sooner or later, the eagle has to learn how to face the wind and rain. Do you understand?" The meaning of the queen mother is very clear. Using the eagle as a metaphor for the seventh prince can protect It lasted for a while, but it couldn't last forever.

The emperor also nodded; "Listening to my mother's words today is better than studying for ten years." At the court, I still have myself watching for Luo Yang for the time being.These are also Luo Feng's eyes that Luo Yang sees now.The way, his father has paved the way for Luo Yang, as for how to get there, it depends on Luo Yang himself.

"Okay, since that's the case, do the ministers have any opinions?"

"The empress dowager is wise, and the ministers have no objections."

All this happened within the queen's expectation, listening to the news brought back by Qing Yun.The corners of the queen's lips rose, it seemed that the queen mother's old family was really useful.

"Empress, what should we do next?"

"Don't worry, let's take a look first. The Queen Mother's words are much more useful than anyone else's."

"My lady meant to say..."
