The Princess of the Fairy Phoenix Road

Chapter 1125 Princess Dingguo (4)
Empress Chen was in a sluggish state, and the old lady next to her hurried over to help her sit up, and at the same time waved her hand to send the palace servants back.

"The queen mother doesn't look very well, but she's not feeling well?" Feng Liancheng asked with concern.

Empress Chen was restless and didn't have the energy to deal with it, so she said straight to the point: "I think you should have gotten the news yesterday, the Rong family—how are you going to deal with it?"

"The Rong family?" Feng Liancheng lifted the corner of his robe, sat down on the chair, thought for a while before suddenly realizing, "Is the mother talking about Rong Lie and Chu Xunyang?"

When this matter was mentioned, Empress Chen regretted it so much that her chest swelled with boredom.

"The palace received a secret report last night that the lord of Xiyue gave that girl 20 Chuzhou military power as a dowry. Military power is no small matter, let alone on the close side of our Nanhua court." Empress Chen said, mentioning this matter Son, he was even more panicked in his heart, and his face became even more ugly. He said: "With military power in my hand, now it seems that this girl has become a monolithic one. She will not be beaten or scolded in the future, and she has to treat her well." The fourth child and concubine Liang probably have the same idea at this moment. Our relationship with the Rong family is no better than theirs, so we have to plan this matter early, and we must not let them get there first."

What needs to be considered now is not the relationship with the Rong family, but the previous relationship with Chu Xunyang and Rong Lie.

Feng Liancheng knew it well, and took a sip of tea in deep thought, before he said, "Empress Mother—have you considered what Emperor Father thinks?"

"Are you still expecting your father to help you with this matter?" Empress Chen blurted out, pinching the center of her brows irritably. Sheng looked over.

"My mother, even if the ruler of Xiyue gave Chu Xunyang 20 military power as a dowry, Chu Xunyang is just a woman. To put it bluntly, it is probably just a show. Now the relationship between our two countries has gradually eased. , there is no conflict, so what if she just holds a military talisman in her hand? It’s just an empty shelf. But from another perspective, no matter whether the part of the military power she holds has any practical effect, it is indisputable that she has military power in her hand The fact, this matter--" Feng Liancheng said, after a pause, his expression became more serious, and he said slowly, "But I violated the taboo of my father!"

As the king of a country, Emperor Chongming was quite afraid of the military generals who held military power in his court, as if he was on guard.

Not to mention that Chu Xunyang was an outsider who was appointed and they were not on the same mind.

Empress Chen originally heard that Chu Qifeng had given Chu Xunyang the military power as a dowry, and she was jealous and hated. She only regretted how she blocked Feng Liancheng's proposal at the beginning, and only thought that with Xiyue's support, she would be able to live in Daqing. In the face of the battle for position, he is even more powerful, but he has no time to think about anything else.

At this moment, when Feng Liancheng mentioned it, her heart pounded with fear.

Seeing that she was lost in thought, Feng Liancheng continued: "I will not hide from my mother, I got the news last night, and my son stayed up all night, but after thinking about it, it is still not appropriate to act rashly. Erchen, Chu Xunyang and Rong Lie The relationship between them has been at a standstill for a long time. Even if I am willing to shake hands with them now, I am afraid it will be difficult to clear up the old grievances. But now that Chu Xunyang has the military power in his hands, the emperor must not tolerate her. At this time, anyone who wants to get close to them will probably arouse the suspicion of the emperor. To put it bluntly, it is a good thing if you can get the support of the country of Xiyue, but in the final analysis, this is Nanhua, the ultimate goal of everything. The decision-making power is still in the hands of the royal father. If it is only to win over a Chu Xunyang or Rong Lie and arouse the suspicion of the royal father, it will not be worth the candle!"

When Empress Chen heard what he said, her mind, which had been chaotic all night, gradually became clear.

"Yes! In the end, the emperor has to decide who will sit on the throne!" Empress Chen murmured, her expression improved a bit, but after thinking about it, she frowned again, " Having said that, Chu Xunyang and the Rong family have to guard against it, and they must be prepared for everything. If those two people really stand in line with the fourth child, there will be a conflict in the future. Yes, it is not a small trouble for us!"

"That's right!" Feng Liancheng also frowned and began to ponder, but he seemed to be missing the point. After a while, he said again: "But it's too early to say these things now, how capable is the fourth child, Rong Lie's temperament Although I don't know for sure, but Rong Xianyang's scheming is extraordinary, even if he is, he probably wouldn't let his son and daughter-in-law get in the way, right?"

Because of Princess Yangxian's death, Rong Xianyang had always had a gap between Emperor Chongming's mother and son, and this was instinctively called a secret.

In the past, Empress Chen only thought that person was difficult to get along with, so she tried to stay as far away as possible.

But now, she has to worry——

Don't this person think that he has a strong in-law as the backing, so he wants to jump out and stir up the water in this pool?
"I heard that Chu Xunyang's girl is very rebellious—" Empress Chen said worriedly.

"That girl is indeed a little arrogant!" Feng Liancheng sighed in agreement, "But after all, this is Nanhua, not Xiyue, so how can she not restrain herself after she gets married? Anyway, this matter, Erchen I think it's better for us to stay the same and respond to all changes first, if Rong Lie and the others really get together with the fourth child, it will be much easier to find a solution at that time."

As Feng Liancheng said, he gave her a deep look.

The military power in Chu Xunyang's hands is a double-edged sword, as long as she doesn't get under Emperor Chongming's nose, otherwise——

No emperor can tolerate her.

Empress Chen thought so, and felt a lot more balanced in her heart.

Gathering her mind, she looked at Feng Liancheng again and said, "By the way, the wife of Prime Minister Xuan Zuo came to mention that matter a few days ago. Her family's second daughter is also [-] this year, so she is considered the eldest, you guys I have to settle things early so that I can rest assured, and it's time for you to calm down!"

"Yes! Everything is under the mother's arrangement!" Feng Liancheng said, smiling slightly, with a kind expression on his face, but no reluctance could be seen.

"Well! After the marriage with Xiyue is over, I will go to the emperor to mention it!" Empress Chen said, looking at the sky outside, and said: "It's getting late, at this juncture, you don't want to be in the palace." Stay for a long time, save the emperor thinking about it, go back early!"

"Yes! The minister will take his leave first!" Feng Liancheng nodded and got up to leave.

Gu Momo personally opened the hall door to see him off, and after she left, Fang turned back to the hall, seeing that Empress Chen was not in good spirits, she comforted her distressedly: "Your Majesty, everything has come to this point anyway, think about it again." What is the use of the past? Your Highness, he is right, even if Princess Xunyang has military power, it is just a cover, and she is still an outsider, so it is not certain whether this is a blessing or a curse. Don't think too much about it!"
