History of Empress Dowager Development

Chapter 222

"Then listen to you." Xu Lang smiled.In fact, the person who presides over the government doesn't understand this truth, and the idea of ​​refusing is just to reassure the loved one.At the beginning when the emperor appointed his second son as the crown prince, there were many criticisms in the government and the opposition. If there is any quarrel between the emperor and the dowager at this time, it will be uneasy after all.He kissed Lin Lang's forehead, "Haven't you rested at noon? You sleep here for a while, and I'll go outside to read the papers."

"Okay, let's go to the Imperial Garden for a walk after we finish watching." Lin Lang agreed, watching Ming Huang's figure step out of the inner room, and sighed slightly.

In fact, why would he want to bother Xu Lang with such things? There are so many things to be busy in the past, and every time Lin Lang looks at his brows that have not been raised late at night, Lin Lang always feels very distressed.However, the Empress Dowager is worried about her son and wants to share her son's worries, which is understandable.The only blame is that she is too young to stand shoulder to shoulder with Xu Lang. Of course, there is nothing to say about not being able to have children at a young age, but in the future, she will not be a little wife who only knows how to enjoy wealth and wealth.

After the court meeting ended the next day, Xu Lang didn't have much to do there, so he took Lin Langtong to Ci'an Palace to say hello.

Chu Hanyi is only 42 this year, he has been on the battlefield to kill enemies, and managed the inner house of the Duke's mansion, so his demeanor is different from others.After the mother and son exchanged greetings, Chu Hanyi said to Xu Lang: "Yesterday I mentioned to the empress that there are few people in the palace and it is deserted. The emperor is in his prime, but he only has the empress by his side. It is also time to select some women with outstanding family background and good looks to enter the palace."

"It's not urgent." Xu Lang didn't seem to understand what she meant, "Nowadays all things are waiting to be done, and the affairs of the previous court are too busy, how can my son think about these things. It is enough to have Lin Lang with me .”

"Because he was too busy with the affairs of the previous dynasty, the emperor should choose some capable people to be his arms and help him from the side. You understand what I mean." The blunt temper in the bone marrow cannot be changed. Don't beat around the bush.

"My son understands. It's just a matter in the court, and my son will naturally have a way to deal with it. If the harem is involved with it, it will be troublesome." Xu Lang stood up and said respectfully: "The queen mother takes care of her son, and my son is naturally grateful. It's just that Lin Lang and I are married. One year, and Lin Lang has nothing to do now, and my son doesn't want to accept a concubine for the time being."

"I've thought about this too, it's not a big deal." Chu Hanyi glanced at his stubborn son, a little annoyed, "The position of concubine in the harem is vacant, what does it look like to others. If you insist on refusing, I'm afraid you will call a courtier Chilling."——At the beginning, the Xu family's army went all the way south without obstacles. Those generals supported Xu Fengxian to ascend to the throne of God, and wiped out the ruling and opposition parties. Didn't they plan for a future of prosperity and wealth and their children?It is obvious that a few women can win people's hearts, so why bother to look far away?
"With the courtiers, my son will naturally find a way to deal with it." Xu Lang insisted, "As for the matter of accepting the concubine, please don't mention it for the time being."

"Mingzhi!" Chu Hanyi felt that this son was simply a stinky rock, a person who was usually so flexible, but now he was stubborn to the point of stupidity.But after all, considering that Lin Lang was by her side, she didn't say anything unnecessary. She took a breather and said coldly: "Then when do you plan to accept the concubine?" She also emphasized, "The reproduction of royal heirs is a major event. This harem will continue!" The last sentence was harsh, obviously unwilling to back down.

Xu Lang said quickly, "We will discuss this matter after Lin Lang gives birth to a prince."

Chu Hanyi understands this son's temper. At the beginning, he insisted on marrying Lin Lang, but after he got married, he loved him in every possible way. She was really worried that he would waste his harem because of this. Now she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You are not joking." Xu Lang naturally agreed.After all, there are still two or three years to go. Instead of intensifying the conflict, it is better to take it easy.

Only then did the atmosphere in the hall become more relaxed. Chu Hanyi looked at Lin Lang who was silently sitting next to him, feeling complicated and difficult to describe.She really likes this daughter-in-law, she is pretty and has a good temperament. What is rare is the love between husband and wife, which is a rare marriage in an ordinary family.But in the royal family, the emperor values ​​affection and only loves one person, which is not a good thing.

"I also met those girls and queens yesterday. Since I don't want to be a concubine, there should be an explanation." Chu Hanyi cast his eyes on Lin Lang.

Lin Lang got up and smiled and said, "I think those sisters are indeed outstanding talents. At the beginning of the year, Princess Kang passed away, and there is no one around to serve him. He is the brother of the Holy One. No one can match his honor and favor in the court and the public. Since the Queen Mother If you like it, how about choosing one and marrying Prince Kang as the main concubine?"

"It can only be like this." Since Chu Hanyi has been persuaded by Xu Lang, he is not procrastinating, "The left minister Chen Hao, who is talented and talented, is still unmarried, right? There are many young talents who have never married wives in the court. I should also pay attention to one or two."

Xu Lang breathed a sigh of relief and nodded in agreement.

After leaving the Empress Dowager's Ci'an Palace, Lin Lang's tense heartstrings finally relaxed. Yesterday, Lin Lang woke up late and did not visit the garden with Xu Lang. Now it was bright and sunny, so they went to the Imperial Garden together.

The Royal Garden is located at the back of the imperial palace. Although there are many palaces around, because there are no concubines or concubines in the palace, many palaces are vacant, so it looks much quieter.From Ci'an Palace to the Imperial Garden, there are many forks in the road. Lin Lang and Xu Lang walked without sedan chairs. When they reached a crossing, Lin Lang suddenly had a thought and said, "There is a field of roses near the Chenhua Palace. Well, why don't you drop by and have a look?"

Xu Lang has nothing to do.
