Chapter 689
Empress Dowager Luo said with a smile: "Why would Ai's family find you annoying? I wish you could be with Ai's family all the time. Only Ai's family knows that this is absolutely impossible, so I can only think about it in my heart." That's all."

As he spoke, he changed the topic, "Speaking of the crown prince, Aijia Ke Qiaoer has something to say to the emperor, this time the crown prince will be crowned, and everyone will be rewarded, except for the concubines in the harem and the other grandchildren of the Ai family. There is nothing, what does the emperor make them think? Could it be your children and grandchildren, or the people who served your pillow, who are even inferior to outsiders? Especially now that you bring the prince in and out with you every day , but treats other children and grandchildren as nothing, how can the prince treat his elder brothers and nephews kindly in the future? The heart of the family, can the emperor understand?"

The emperor really ignored this matter, not to mention the concubines, since he had Concubine Luo, he has never looked at any of them directly, and he doesn't care about it, so naturally it is impossible to think about them ; Even the sons, because of the bad things and the disgust of the bad things, rarely see each other again, except for the prince and Duan Wang.

Now that the Empress Dowager Luo said this, the emperor felt that he really owed the big guy a little bit, so he hurriedly said with a smile: "Or people in the world often say that 'a family with an old man is like a treasure'. In case of those who don't expect this, Ming'er will decree to seal the Sixth Palace, Shen'er and the brothers will also have their own rewards, so that they can all enjoy Heng'er's happiness."

Hearing that the emperor did not forget to bring the prince with him even when he rewarded the king several times, the Empress Dowager Luo became displeased in an instant, but remembering her main purpose today, she held back and asked the emperor with a smile: "By the way, the emperor would like to Remember Meiren Gu? It's that melon-faced court daughter who used to read scriptures to Ai's family, and later became lucky, and you sealed her as a beauty..."

As soon as the emperor heard Empress Dowager Luo mentioning Gu Meiren, he thought that it was because of the latter that Concubine Luo Guifei almost broke up with him, and his face immediately turned ugly, but it was his mother who said this. It's not easy to lose your temper with her, so I had to hold back, and asked: "Why does the mother suddenly think of Mrs. Gu, what's wrong with her?"

Empress Dowager Luo couldn't hear the impatience in the emperor's words, although she was not happy, she could only hold back, and continued to laugh: "It's nothing, the Ai family accidentally heard someone say that today's Aijia thought about her birthday, she is alone in the palace, and there is no one to talk to on her annual birthday, she is really pitiful, so I want the emperor to take a look at her..."

Before he finished speaking, the emperor sneered and said: "There are so many concubines in the palace, if I want to visit them all on their birthdays, then I won't do other things all day long!"

While speaking, she stood up, "I don't know if the mother has other orders, if not, my son will leave first, and there are still a lot of papers waiting for my son to review!"

Seeing that her son didn't give herself any face in front of the palace full of people, Empress Dowager Luo was also really angry, she stood up with a sneer and said, "The Ai family sees you go to the Qianyuan Palace to review the memorials. Is it fake? It’s true that Chonghua Palace sees your eyeballs and sharp heart! The Ai family has left their words here today. If you dare to take a step out of my Shoukang Palace now, you will never want to step in again in the future. , Aijia just pretends that he never gave birth to your son!"

This was a bit exaggerated, the empress dowager Luo's personal nurse and Gao Yuwang looked at each other, and hurriedly sent out all the palace people in the palace, and the two of them knelt down immediately, and each persuaded each other with apologetic smiles His master: "Your majesty, the empress dowager has just recovered from a long illness. The imperial doctor can speak, and she must not be irritated. Why don't you speak softly? If the empress dowager gets angry for something good or bad, it's not you who feel distressed. height?"

"Empress Dowager, it's not that the emperor doesn't know how filial you are. Why do you say such angry words? You really made the emperor go away later. You should regret it, right?"

No matter how you say it, in the end, the emperor was persuaded to give up a step first, forced a smile and said to Empress Dowager Luo: "It's all about the son's fault, which made the empress angry. Please don't be as knowledgeable as the son."

Empress Dowager Luo saw that her son gave in first, so she also smiled and said, "It's also because my temper is getting worse and worse. The emperor don't take it to heart." After all, this son is not an ordinary son. Are there still fewer empress dowagers who have been honored and raised?
It's just that I really feel sorry for Gu Meiren, Empress Dowager Luo, because she smiled and slowed down her voice: "The Ai family knows that the emperor is busy, and shouldn't bother you with these trivial matters in the harem, but Gu's is also really filial to the Ai family. I won’t talk about Ai’s family on weekdays, but just say that Ai’s family has been sick for a while. If she hadn’t been serving Ai’s family day and night, Ai’s family would not have recovered so quickly. It’s not because of Ai’s partiality. , all of them combined can't compare to her filial piety to Ai's family alone!"

Hearing this, the emperor recalled that when Empress Dowager Luo was sick, he came to visit several times, and seemed to see Gu Meiren serving in front of Empress Dowager Luo's bed, but she didn't take the opportunity to ask him for favors, but immediately withdrew as soon as she saw her. .

I couldn't help but feel a little moved, because following what the Empress Dowager Luo said: "From what my mother said, the Gu family is indeed rare, so why not, didn't I say that I would seal the Sixth Palace? Originally, I planned that each person should not exceed Two levels, since the queen mother likes the Gu family so much, it doesn't matter if she is promoted to two levels more, just make her a noble concubine, live in the main hall of the first palace and take care of the affairs of the first palace, and she will be regarded as a serious master in the future, unknown What does the queen mother think?"

The Empress Dowager Luo said angrily: "If you just want to promote her position, why should the Ai family talk so much to the emperor? The Ai family can issue a decree to promote her. The meaning of the Ai family is whether to be promoted or not." These are all false, anyway, there is Aijia protecting her, it doesn't matter if she is a beauty or a noble concubine, but if the emperor can visit her on her birthday, it will be more important to her than anything else Precious, it is Aijia begging the emperor, just give Aijia a thin face, and save Aijia from always feeling indebted to her... At the beginning, Ruoaijia didn't let her serve the emperor, but pointed out a marriage with her, let her If she gets married in a good manner, maybe her children will run away all over the place right now!"

At the end, it was full of sighs and sighs.

The Emperor couldn't say the words of refusal that were on his lips, but he still didn't want to go to see Gu Meiren, lest Concubine Luo would find out later and get angry with him again, refusing to let him step into her bedroom.

Empress Dowager Luo saw that the emperor's expression had softened, so she hurriedly continued her efforts: "The Ai family knows what you are worried about, and it is nothing more than fear of turning around. Your heart knows it and is angry with you again. It is not that the Ai family wants you to stay here tonight." At Gu Meiren's place, I just let you go and see her, after seeing her, where do you want to go, is there anyone else who would dare to stop you?"
