Chapter 251 Concubine Xian in charge of the harem
Little Liuzi was also a smart person, he understood what Eunuch Rong meant.

"Report to Your Majesty: Yesterday Xiaoju went to the imperial dining room to bring lunch for Concubine Shu. She was greedy for overcharging the cook for a plate of dim sum. After being found out by the empress, she beat her up and was carried out.

The servant is timid, so he wants to be transferred to the palace of the concubine Xian. "

Little Liuzi didn't directly sue the queen, but he told the truth about the matter.

The emperor frowned when he heard this, he still knew what it meant to be carried out, only those who were seriously injured or dying were carried out.Is such a trivial matter seriously injured?
The emperor also thinks that Xiao Liu and Xiaoju are both from Concubine Shu's palace, but it is the queen who punishes Xiaoju. Could it be that the queen is picking on Concubine Shu?

Thinking of the marriage between the Chen family and the Cui family, what else does the emperor not understand?
The emperor's face became gloomy, "Rong Dehai, pass on my concubine Xian for me."

After Eunuch Rong left, the emperor said to Xiao Liuzi: "Tell me what happened in the harem recently, there must be no falsehood."

At this time, Xiao Liuzi could only tell the whole story.However, he still spoke in a more cryptic and subtle way.

When the emperor heard that there were more than 20 people in the palace who had been severely punished recently, and most of them were from Concubine Shu's palace, he even carried three people out, he couldn't hold back his anger.

This queen is too arrogant and vicious!
She dared to torture the palace people like this for such a small matter, if one day she passed the throne to You Bei, wouldn't she be turned upside down?

Then it's better to take this opportunity to empty the queen, so that after Youbei takes over the throne, the harem will not be in chaos.

The emperor also thought that Chang Weijun was in charge of the city defense army. In order to prevent Duke Wei from forcing the palace, it was time for Wang Liangcong to take over.

……

Seeing that the emperor called her to go, Concubine Xian asked Eunuch Rong cryptically: "I don't know why your Majesty summoned you suddenly?"

Eunuch Rong knew that Concubine Xian was slightly different from other people in the harem in the emperor's heart. Although this difference had nothing to do with love, Eunuch Rong was still happy to sell Concubine Xian a favor.

"Your Majesty wants to know what happened in the harem recently."

Concubine Xian knew it in her heart, and smiled wryly: "The one who should come will still come, and you can't even hide."

……

The emperor looked at Concubine Xian, "Concubine Xian, I know you don't want to cause trouble, but I want to know what happened in the harem recently, please tell me in detail."

Concubine Xian glanced at Little Liu Zi who was kneeling on the ground, and vaguely remembered that he was from Concubine Shu's palace. Now that he was kneeling in the imperial study, His Majesty must have already asked all the questions that should be asked.

Since this is the case, Concubine Xian is quite calm and told everything about what happened in the harem recently.

Concubine Xian thinks clearly and speaks clearly, and the words she speaks are impartial and just state the facts, making the emperor more aware of the current situation in the harem.

But in this way, the emperor became even more angry.

This time, the emperor's anger could not be suppressed no matter what.

The emperor kicked it out forcefully, and kicked over the case table of the memorial.The memorials on the case table fell to the ground one after another.

Eunuch Rong stood still without making a sound.

The emperor quickly spun around on the spot, which is the habitual action of the emperor when he is anxious or angry.

After turning around a dozen times, the emperor stopped.

"Rong Dehai, convey my will: the empress is not feeling well, ask the empress to hand over the empress seal, and leave all affairs in the harem to Xianfei for the time being."

Rong Dehai took the order to retreat, and before leaving, he took advantage of the opportunity to give Xiao Liuzi a hand.

When there were only two of them, the emperor's anger extinguished a lot, he looked at Concubine Xian and said:
"I know that you are very intelligent and capable, but because you have no children, you are very low-key. But from now on, you can no longer keep a low profile, and you have to shoulder the burden of the harem for me."

Concubine Xian said: "Your Majesty, aren't you embarrassing my concubine? If the empress blames me in the future, how can my concubine live a good life?"

Now that the emperor has made up his mind, he will not change it.It's just that the passing of the throne to Youbei cannot be known to others for the time being, so the emperor said:

"I know what you are worried about, and I will tell you the truth today: I will not appoint the eldest prince as the crown prince. Look at him, can he take on the responsibility of the king of a country?
If I pass on the throne to him, wouldn't it mean that the country of Dayu would be ruined? "

Concubine Xian was not too surprised to hear the emperor say this.

Like the empress, the eldest prince is domineering, arrogant, and has no scheming mind. He is indeed not a candidate for the king of a country.

Not to mention the king of a country, even a petty official may not be qualified.

It's just that she didn't expect the emperor to tell her so frankly.

Seeing that Concubine Xian didn't answer, the emperor said a few words to comfort her:

"I will always entrust you with the full authority to take care of all the affairs of the harem until the new emperor ascends the throne. And for you to be able to take care of the harem in a legitimate way, I will promote you to a super first-rank imperial concubine soon. And..."

Having said that, the emperor paused.

"If you want a child, I allow you to pick a girl from the harem and put it under your name."

Concubine Xian thought about it, what does the emperor mean by this?
Concubine Xian also thought about admitting a girl to her name before, but later found it boring.

It's not a child born by oneself, so I have to work hard and separate other people's mother and daughter, why bother?
After listening to the emperor's words today, I feel that there is no need for this.

"Your Majesty, the concubine has not thought of recognizing a daughter for the time being."

The emperor felt a little tired.

"Okay, this matter is up to you, you can step back first."

……

Concubine Xian has been thinking about the emperor's intentions since she left.

Now there are five princes in the harem, and there are three adult princes. The third prince born to the imperial concubine has long been eliminated. The emperor said that he will not pass the throne to the eldest prince. Isn't that only the second prince born to the concubine Shu?
What about the second prince?If one is cultivated well, although it is difficult to become a holy king, it is not impossible to become an emperor.

But in the past, the emperor didn't pay much attention to the adult princes, and he didn't train the second prince.

But recently, the emperor bestowed marriages on the Chen family and the Cui family, is this going to start cultivating power for the second prince?
Not necessarily.

The emperor is in his prime, and he has two other underage princes, and there will be more sons in the future.

Concubine Xian went back to her own palace while pondering.

No matter how smart Concubine Xian is, she never thought that the emperor wanted to pass the throne to Ning Youbei.

After all, most families pass on their property to their sons, and very few pass on their property to their younger brothers.Especially the throne!
This is also the secret of Concubine Xian's ignorance of the blood brand of the Ning family, otherwise she might have guessed a little bit.

In fact, at the very beginning, although the emperor thought about passing the throne to Ning Youbei, those thoughts were just short-lived.

What really made the emperor make up his mind to pass on the throne to Ning Youbei was because of the branding of the Ning family's blood.

Of course, it was also because the emperor was dissatisfied with his sons.
