Family Has a Concubine

Today is King Liang's birthday, so he must enter the palace to kowtow to the emperor, empress, queen mother and others.

The carriage stopped at the Donghua Gate in the palace, and the two got out of the carriage, boarded the Jianyu, and headed all the way to Shou'an Palace where the Empress Dowager was.

Finally, Jianyu stopped in front of the gate of Shou'an Palace, the two got off the sedan chair, and were led in by the maids.

After entering the main hall and being ushered into the side hall, I saw that the Empress Dowager and Emperor Zhengxuan were both here.

The Empress Dowager and Emperor Zhengxuan were sitting on the phoenix couch. Empress Zheng was the head of Emperor Zhengxuan. The King Lu and his wife, the prince and his wife, and King Rong were all here. In addition, there were Princess Xinyang, Princess Yuean and Yining. Princess.

The next two princesses are fifteen and the other thirteen, Yue An is the empress's son, and Yining is Wu Guifei's son.

King Liang and Zhao Yingqi walked in and saluted the queen mother: "The grandson has met the emperor's grandmother, and met the father and mother."

"Come on, don't be too polite." The queen mother smiled and said, looking at Liang Wang: "Xiaosi is one year older."

King Liang hehe: "The grandson is one year older again."

The Empress Dowager and Emperor Zhengxuan froze. His name is Lao, what are their names? Old or not? At their age, the most taboo is an old word.

Emperor Zhengxuan coughed dryly: "Bring it in."

Cai Jie immediately came in with a tray. King Liang glanced at it, and saw a jasper inkstone on it, simple and clear, with a dazzling brilliance.

Emperor Zhengxuan chuckled: "This is the Bitian Inkstone used by Mr. Confucian Yue of the previous court. I heard that Zheng'er has been looking for it. It just so happened that I got it, so I gave it to Zheng'er as a birthday present."

Liang Wang raised his eyebrows, this old man brought out such a good thing, isn't he afraid that he won't be able to come up with something good when he wipes the prince's ass in the future?

Liang Wang just chuckled: "Thank you, father."

"The emperor loves Xiaosi the most. The emperor didn't give such a good gift for the prince's birthday last time." Empress Zheng joked with a smile.

"Sit down, Zhenger," said Emperor Zhengxuan.

Liang Wang pulled Zhao Yingqi to sit next to Rong Wang.

Then Empress Zheng talked about the gifts given by Emperor Zhengxuan on the birthdays of the crown prince and King Lu over the years, laughing and joking one by one, and there were two laughing princesses present, and the whole Shouan Palace was quite happy.

After staying in the palace for more than half an hour, he reckoned that the guests from Prince Liang's mansion were almost here.

This time in previous years should also go back.

Zhao Yingqi put her hands on her knees and squeezed them tightly. She always wanted to intervene, but in the end she couldn't find a suitable opportunity, and she didn't have the courage, so she could only hold back.

But she estimated the time, and if she dragged on, she would have to leave!

Thinking about it, she stood up: "Father, father..."

The Empress Dowager was being amused by Princess Yining, Empress Zheng and Emperor Zhengxuan also laughed happily, even Zhao Yingqi stood up and called for someone, but she didn't respond.

"Father." Zhao Yingqi gritted her teeth, walked out, and stood in front of Emperor Zhengxuan.

"Uh..." Emperor Zhengxuan, the Empress Dowager, Empress Zheng and others were startled, and looked at Princess Liang in amazement.

Concubine Liang has always been ostracized and disliked by others because of her background, so she usually doesn't speak or make a sound in this kind of situation, hoping that no one will think of her.

But now, she came out suddenly and called Emperor Zhengxuan, not knowing what happened.

"What's wrong with Princess Liang?" Empress Zheng said with a half-smile.

This princess was the king of Liang who was seriously injured and returned to the palace, and she was the child bride of the king of Liang.

The purpose is to occupy the position of the princess, so that the king of Liang will not marry a noble daughter. At first, he was afraid that she would fight against him in the future.

No, but Zhao Yingqi is a fool! Coupled with her low background, cowardly personality, and lack of brains, she has brought into full play her role-that is, dragging Liang Wang's hind legs!

Emperor Zhengxuan also looked down on this daughter-in-law, and when he heard her calling for someone, he was startled: "Is there something wrong with the fourth daughter-in-law?"

"Father, can you take care of Sister Tang's affairs?" Zhao Yingqi whispered, looking at him with black and white eyes.

"What sister Tang?" Emperor Zhengxuan raised his eyebrows.

"Is it a girl?" Princess Lu burst out laughing, and looked at King Liang playfully, "Did Liang Wang Xinna come into the mansion? How about it? Don't you dare to show embarrassment to your younger siblings?"

Emperor Zhengxuan frowned with gray brows: "You can tell the queen or queen mother about this kind of thing later."

"No, I want to tell my father." Zhao Yingqi shook her head, her eyes were a little red: "Didn't someone go to war earlier? That Chu Sanlang is Sister Tang's husband."

Emperor Zhengxuan was startled, Chu Yunpan! How could he forget! Moreover, Chu Yunpan went to Yu'an Pass, which was a major event related to Da Qi's lifeline, and reports about his battle at Yu'an Pass were sent back from time to time.

As for Chu Yunpan, Emperor Zhengxuan thought about it day and night!

When Emperor Zhengxuan heard Zhao Yingqi mentioning Chu Yunpan, he focused his attention and looked at her: "What's wrong with Chu Yunpan?"

"It's Sister Tang...she's Chu San's daughter-in-law." Zhao Yingqi said, "Her husband is leading the soldiers outside to fight, but a large group of people spread rumors that she is not a woman. A large group of people also said that her old mother was not respectful of women. They rescued a girl from outside and went home, and a large group of people said that the rescued girl was not obedient to women. The former one sued the governor because of this matter. I went over there, but Fu Yin suppressed it, and finally not so many people talked about it. The matter was already clear, and it was a good thing that Sister Tang's father did, but the people outside stopped for a while and kept talking. It seems It’s the same as not giving up until someone is forced to death. This matter... I shouldn’t have told my father... But I just thought, why is Sister Tang so pitiful... The husband is working hard outside, but the daughter-in-law is being bullied at home..." At the end, Zhao Yingqi was in tears.

Emperor Zhengxuan frowned and shouted coldly: "Bastard! Who did it!"

No matter whether the result is good or bad, if Chu Yunpan asks to be recruited, if he really loses, he will die for the sake of Daqi!

Emperor Zhengxuan had always felt guilty towards Chu Yunpan, and he only wanted to make up for him.

Moreover, Chu Yunpan has successfully broken through the closed Bozhou in southern Xinjiang and entered Yu'an Pass. This made Emperor Zhengxuan look forward to it a little.

Originally, according to their plan, Chu Yunpan, an inexperienced rookie, was afraid that he would not even be able to make it through Bozhou, so he would be buried there directly. Unexpectedly, Chu Yunpan broke through with food and grass.

This surprised and excited Emperor Zhengxuan, maybe... maybe it can really...

Even if he was really defeated at Yu'an Pass, at least the people would not be so sick of him, and would not say that he sent an incompetent person to fool them.

Anyway, he feels guilty and misses Chu Yunpan at the moment.

Unexpectedly, the hero who is throwing his head and blood for Daqi, his wife and children at home are being bullied like this!

When Emperor Zhengxuan was getting hotheaded with Chu Yunpan, everything seemed good to Chu Yunpan. Naturally, his wife should also be a good one, and it is impossible for her to do things that are morally corrupt and unfeminine.

Coupled with Zhao Yingqi's undisguised partiality and every word of defense, he was hotheaded, so he decided that Zhao Yingqi was right.

"Father, I have also heard about this." Princess Xinyang sighed slightly, "I have some friendship with this Ye Tangcai. She is a good girl, but she was suddenly attacked by rumors. Can't even catch the adulterer? Don't even have a name? Just use empty teeth to destroy people's reputation."

"Sister Huang is right." The prince also sighed. Now at last I have a chance to court the beauty.

Seeing that the prince actually helped Ye Tangcai to speak, the princess knew that the prince was thinking about Ye Tangcai again. I can't help feeling bitter in my heart.

Now that the Feng family has collapsed, how can the concubine Feng's big face keep the prince!

The princess obviously felt that since the fall of the Feng family, the prince has treated her much better. After all, her family is the most powerful in the entire Prince's Mansion. Then she no longer needed Ye Tangcai to keep the prince. Therefore, there was nothing left in my heart for Ye Tangcai.

"You all know about this, why didn't you tell me!" Emperor Zhengxuan was a little angry.

The faces of the Prince and Lu Wang couple froze. The rumors outside were so vicious. They all lived outside the palace. How could they not know, but they were also well informed, that is, Ye Tangcai rescued Qi Min, so she offended Liao home.

They didn't know that it was Liao Jueyao who made the move, and they thought that the Liao family couldn't accommodate Qi Min.

After all, that was Liao Shoufu, and Ye Tangcai was not related to them, Chu Yunpan might have died there, Ye Tangcai and the Chu family were naturally worthless, who would touch someone for a worthless person? Liao Shoufu's bad luck?

But now that this matter was brought up in front of Emperor Zhengxuan, Emperor Zhengxuan was getting hotheaded with Chu Yunpan, so he added an icing on the cake, so that he could sell well in front of Emperor Zhengxuan.

The prince said awkwardly: "The battle at Yu'an Pass has already made the emperor frown. Coupled with the reported locust plague in the south a few days ago, it is difficult to prepare the army's salary, food and grass... How can we talk about this kind of back house?" This matter bothered my father. Moreover, this matter..."

As he said that, the prince's face froze. The queen should be in charge of such matters! But the queen was negligent!

Concubine Lu said: "That's right. Besides, I thought it was just some rumors, which will dissipate after a while. We also pay attention to it from time to time. How could we know that it has been spreading for so long."

Princess Xinyang said: "Isn't the third daughter-in-law of Chu not yet ordered?"

Everyone present was startled, Emperor Zhengxuan also reacted, and pursed his lips.

Chu Yunpan went out in too much haste, so he didn't have time to ask Ye Tang for a royal order. And Emperor Zhengxuan couldn't think of this level either.

Emperor Zhengxuan looked back at Empress Zheng: "Empress, I leave this matter to you."

Empress Zheng's face turned red. After all, it was her dereliction of duty. It was her responsibility to manage the wives.

Empress Zheng smiled and said: "It's natural. Because Ye Tangcai didn't give orders, and the concubine is in the deep palace, I haven't heard about her." Then she looked at Zhao Yingqi: "Princess Liang Now that you know, why didn’t you tell Bengong earlier, after all, the emperor is busy with everything, and you still bother him about this kind of thing! It’s too wrong! From now on, the princess can just tell Bengong about matters about married women or women.”
