Chapter 375
The news of Li Chu was gradually buried by Dongxue, and even the imperial concubine Ling sighed privately that the queen was so calm, she was someone who had been sitting on the throne for many years and was used to storms.

In this way, the concubines in the harem did not dare to act rashly and watched secretly.

In the spring of the 28th year of Qianlong, Yongqi went in and out of the court to discuss politics, and was gradually entrusted with important tasks. She often followed the emperor, and she seemed to be the emperor's right-hand man.

In May, the concubines of the harem entrusted the Empress Dowager to the Yuanmingyuan to escape the summer heat. Without the barrier of high walls, it was convenient for them to visit each other.

This night, the moon and stars were sparse, and it cleared up for several days in a row. Looking at tomorrow, the sun will shine again.

Yaqin waited for the noble concubine to change into thin pajamas, and the noble concubine looked in the direction of Jiuzhou Qingyan, and said: "I heard that the fifth elder brother was late in discussing politics recently, and the emperor left him to rest in Jiuzhou Qingyan?"

Yaqin nodded and said: "The emperor pays more and more attention to the fifth elder brother. Now whether it is in the harem or the court, there are signs that the fifth elder brother will be the crown prince. If the fifth elder brother really becomes the heir, the queen will be the aunt. It's the empress dowager, the slave looks at the empress, it seems that he has given up on the twelfth elder brother and is also interested in the fifth elder brother."

Concubine Ling's face darkened, and said: "Unexpectedly, today, what we are afraid of is not the queen, but Concubine Yu. As you said, if the fifth elder brother ascends the throne, it will hardly hinder the queen, but for us, But it's a world of difference. The current imperial concubine will be just a concubine in the future!"

Yaqin said: "Your Majesty, you originally thought that the Empress would obstruct the establishment of the Crown Prince, but under the current situation, Madam, you have to think about it for yourself."

The concubine Ling contemplated for a moment, and said: "Hu Shijie's dog legs are useless, the emperor still has to keep a person by his side."

Yaqin said in a low voice: "This servant has already thought of it. Xiaoluzi is serving tea in front of the imperial court. He usually likes to gamble for a small amount of money. When he lost some money a while ago, this servant took the opportunity to win him over."

Concubine Ling asked one more question: "Is it reliable?"

Yaqin said confidently: "The slave is doing the work, don't worry, ma'am."

Concubine Ling smiled at her and said: "You still understand my thoughts best, go to bed early today, some things still need to be done step by step."

"Yes." Yaqin helped her to rest before closing the bedroom door.

This year's scorching heat hit more violently than in previous years. It hasn't rained in the capital for a month, and the air is extremely dry.Qin Tianjian was ordered to pray for rain, but watching the stars every night, there is no cloud in the sky, so there is no sign of rain.

The rivers in the suburbs dried up, the farmlands were cracked, memorials from various prefectures were handed in to the garden one after another, and the emperor was devastated again. Fortunately, Yongqi was there to help, and he was relieved a lot.

The candlelight of Qingyan in Jiuzhou burned every night until dawn. After all, the emperor was an elderly man. After staying up for two or three nights, he became dizzy.

Yong Qi said worriedly: "Huang Ama, take care of the dragon body, there are not many memorials left here, why not hand it over to my son, who will pick the important ones, and then ask Huang Ama for approval."

"Alright," the emperor rubbed his forehead, saw two or three eunuchs in the palace dozing off beside the pillars, and sighed softly, "Yongqi, you sit in my seat, although you are young, don't be too late."

"Thank you, Emperor Ama." Yong Qi respectfully sent the emperor out.

Li Yu leaned against the door and squinted for a while, and when he saw the emperor coming out, he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty, are you going to Tiandi Family Spring?"

The emperor glanced at the sky and said: "It will be dawn soon, don't bother the queen, I will rest in the side hall for a while."

"Hey." Li Yu followed him to the side hall.
