Concubine, she is so charming

Chapter 323 Candidates

"In the queen's opinion, who is more appropriate to raise the eldest prince." Ning Chen continued.

"The concubine thinks that Concubine Shu and Concubine Jingde are good candidates, they have enough qualifications, and they have both raised children."

The queen lifted out the two with the highest status in the harem at once.

Next, Ye Yun and Yi Shunyuan would never consider it.

These two have healthy princes under their knees, and they have a family background and are favored. Wouldn't it be earth-shattering to add another prince.

And I gave it away, I'm afraid it's not easy to ask for it back.

Although it is not expected that the eldest prince can be raised under her knees to become the future heir apparent, it would be good to have a solid pet first.

Once there is a child, the prince will naturally come a few more times, and the more he comes, the more he will have the chance to give birth to one.

Ning Chen thought for a while, then said in a deep voice, "Concubine Shu's temperament is not good, it's okay to raise a daughter, but she needs to be more prudent in raising a son."

Her sharp mouth, don't make the eldest prince even more crooked.

"Concubine Jingde is not bad." Ning Chen pursed his lips.

The second prince has a very good personality, so it can be seen that it is advisable for Concubine Jingde to raise children on a daily basis.

The queen also nodded immediately, "The ages of the eldest prince and the second prince are not much, so it is good for two brothers to be raised together."

Just when it was about to be finalized, a little palace maid suddenly came to pass the word, saying that the rosary beads by Concubine Jingde's side had arrived.

"Why are you here now, what's the matter?" The queen frowned.

The little palace maid replied, "It is said that Concubine Jingde is ill, and she came here to ask for leave, and I am afraid that she will not be able to come to pay her respects for a while."

"Call someone in." Ning Chen said.

The maid who delivered the message nodded and led the person in in a moment.

"Slave and servant send greetings to the emperor and empress." When the rosary came in, I saluted first.

The queen waved her hand, "Excuse me, Concubine Jingde fell ill just because she was so well-behaved, this morning please An looks pretty good."

"Returning to Empress Empress, De Concubine Empress had some discord with her spleen and stomach yesterday, and today I asked An to go back and feel dizzy, and I didn't feel better when I woke up after sleeping, so I asked the imperial doctor to come and see, and then I had a fever, I wanted to drink It should be fine after taking the medicine, but the fever has not subsided until now, and everyone is lying on the couch and has no strength, and I am afraid that the empress will be angry after coming to the funeral, so I sent my slaves to ask for leave."

Nianwen explained the ins and outs very neatly.

Although it was a coincidence that he was ill at this time, he couldn't see any flaws.

This was something the queen did not expect.

But there was also hope in my heart.

Since Concubine Jingde is ill, she definitely doesn't have the energy to take care of the two children at once, so the eldest prince can just take care of her directly without going through all this trouble.

"In this way, let Concubine Jingde recuperate well, Suqin, pick some good herbs from the palace's warehouse and send them to Xiefang Hall tomorrow." The queen ordered.

Rosary didn't stay long after finishing her work, and left soon.

There are two husband and wife left in the house again.

The queen tentatively said, "Concubine De is so sick that she can't get up. If the eldest prince is sent there, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of the two children for a while."

Ning Chen frowned tightly, and after a while he took a long breath and said in a low voice.

"Then leave it to Hui Zhaorong to take care of her for the time being. She has also been with me for many years. She has a gentle temper and knows the rules very well. The second princess is also healthy."

"Yes, Hui Zhaorong is also good." The queen answered dryly.

A look of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

I didn't expect Hui Zhaorong to take advantage of it in the end, but it doesn't matter, it's just a process step by step.

So in the end it was decided that Hui Zhaorong would raise the eldest prince.

The next morning, when I greeted you, the queen told me about it.

"Hui Zhaorong now has two children under her knees, so she needs to spend more thought. After the children are raised, with your qualifications, the concubine is just around the corner."

"The concubine thanked the emperor and empress for such trust, and will do her best to raise the eldest prince well."

When the matter came to this point, she was notified at all, so there was no reason for her to refuse.

This job, even if she doesn't want to, she can only continue first.

But after thinking about it, I don't have a son, if I raise the eldest prince well, I will give my daughter more support in the future, so it won't be so uncomfortable.

Please leave, Ye Yun and Hui Zhaorong walked for a while.

"Sister, you have to be more careful in the future. The Fengqi Palace wants to have a child to raise. It's inevitable that she will play tricks on the eldest prince. Sister, please don't be a stepping stone for others."

Hui Zhaorong sighed, "Hey, I don't know what you're talking about, but there are two empresses up there, and somehow they fell to me, so I can only ask people to stare at them more."

Ye Yun narrowed her eyes slightly and said in a low voice.

"Concubine De didn't come to pay her respects today. Didn't the empress say that she suddenly fell ill yesterday? In my opinion, there is no such coincidence. I'm afraid I just avoided it."

"To tell you the truth, my majesty asked me to raise the eldest prince on purpose at noon yesterday, but told me to reject it. This concubine Shu is making a fuss. She will definitely not ask her to raise a boy, and only Concubine De, Concubine De Sickness, it’s not on you, sister.”

Hearing her analysis, Hui Zhaorong's face became a little more sad.

Hidden one or two, the queen wanted it, but the emperor refused to give it to her, instead he asked her to accept a hot potato.

Seeing that she was so worried, Ye Yun comforted her again.

"After all, the eldest prince is still young, and he can be raised well if he is taught well. Sister, don't worry too much. The only thing is, keep an eye on everyone around the eldest prince, so don't be accidentally taken advantage of."

"Well, I see, now I can only take one step at a time." Hui Zhaorong nodded.

The two separated at the fork in the road.

After returning to the residence, Hui Zhaorong found that the eldest prince and his servants had just been sent here.

Now that Zhaorong was sealed, she moved from Yimeixuan to Yongning Hall, the place is spacious, so she arranged the eldest prince to live in Dongpian Hall.

The second princess was still young and slept in the ear room on the left side of the main hall.

Hui Zhaorong and the Eldest Prince had no contact at all on weekdays, and the Eldest Prince nestled in the nurse's arms and didn't even look at her.

So I didn't see the child alone, I just called the servants around the first prince over, asked what should be asked, and beat what should be beaten.

After basically understanding the situation, there was no action for the time being.

Anyway, let's get acquainted for a few days first.

The custody of the eldest prince in the harem has finally been settled, and the list of Chunwei emperors from the previous dynasty has also been posted.

Ye Huai lived up to expectations and was on the list, and the ranking was quite high.

The next five days will be the final imperial examination. Ning Chen will present questions and assess on the spot, and choose the champion, second place, and third prize.

Regardless of the results of the final imperial examination, Ye Huai is definitely able to enter the court as an official.

This last game is to determine what height he can reach when he first enters the officialdom.

Of course, there are those who are on the list and those who are not.

For example, Yao Xin, the only son of the Yao family, has failed the ranking for the third time this year.

Yao Xiang had just recovered from his illness, and he was almost overwhelmed by his second brother, so he could only write a letter back, telling his father in a cryptic way, that he should train his eldest brother Yao Xu's son well.

It is also good that the grandson is more promising than the son.
