Chapter 57 Proposals
The queen's tone was not as usual, but very cold, clearly expressing her dissatisfaction with the emperor's words.

After a little thought, the emperor understood what the empress meant. In fact, he didn't really think about choosing Liang Yuan Liang Di or even a side concubine for the prince. It's just that if he wanted to have a peaceful relationship with the empress, he couldn't treat the prince as before.

The queen's behavior was just what he wanted, so the emperor smiled and pulled the queen's sleeve, "Don't be angry, Zitong, just don't choose a good wife and a good wife for the prince."

He didn't say anything to death, and continued, "It's not too late to accept whichever Chang Yin likes in the future,"

The queen was in shock, but she didn't taunt anymore, she just stood up and walked to the window, "What is Your Majesty going to do about Concubine Hui?"

What she asked was Concubine Hui, not the First Prince.

The empress doesn't care about the eldest prince's life or death, but concubine Hui...wouldn't lose her life or get sick in the future.

The two princesses have no mother's protection, and the father doesn't care about them, even if they choose a son-in-law, they have to be downgraded.

Another point is... She needs to be clear, what did Concubine Hui know back then?
The emperor frowned, "If the eldest prince dares to murder the prince, I will punish him severely, and Concubine Hui, as the mother of the eldest prince, failed to teach the eldest prince well but secretly encouraged him to have such rebellious thoughts, which is even more sinful." .”

From his words, the queen probably guessed the punishment he wanted to punish the eldest prince, and immediately sneered, "According to what your majesty said, the grand tutor who taught the eldest prince should be punished, and so should I, the queen mother, and I even have to beat Hui Hui." Concubine got more punishment, right?"

The emperor has been in power for many years, and he rarely hears such words.

He was not angry at all, he only thought that the empress was annoying his petty temper, so he said a few more things, all of which were the private tripping up of Xiao Changyin by the eldest prince all these years.

"Since it was the eldest prince's fault, why should Concubine Hui bear it all?"

If she could really afford it, Concubine Hui would rather lose her life, but the reality is that the emperor not only has to deal with the eldest prince, but also her.

The emperor understood that the empress wanted to let Concubine Hui off or punish Concubine Hui less severely, so he couldn't help frowning.

There's no need to make the queen feel unhappy about such a trivial matter.

The emperor thought about it, then changed his tone to be gentler, and looked at the queen, "Since the queen thinks so, I will just do it."

The Qin family outside the palace.

Qin Huai frowned, and looked sadly at his daughter Qin Mingyue sitting next to him from time to time.

In fact, Mingyue and the prince's marriage contract was terminated at the beginning, even if he got a great benefit, he still felt that it was inappropriate.

"Your Majesty's attitude towards the prince seems to be different from before." Qin Huai said.

Qin Mingyue understood the meaning of the words, and swayed the fringe on the edge of the sleeve with her fingers, "Thunder, rain and dew are all the grace of the emperor, father, we just have to wait."

Qin Huai didn't intend to ignore this daughter, so he hesitated for a while, and asked her tentatively, "Do you have a fancy to this handsome young man in the capital?"

If you go higher, you may not be able to choose, but if you go lower, you can still choose.

Qin Huai also doesn't expect his daughter's future husband's family to help him, as long as it doesn't cause trouble.

"Which of the young talents in the capital can compare with His Highness the Crown Prince?" She paused, her tone flat.

Qin Huai was hesitant. On the one hand, he felt that Mingyue's words were very true. Among all the young and talented people in the capital, who could compare with the crown prince? If the crown prince continues to go on smoothly like this, he will be the king of ninety-five years in the future.

Even if Mingyue enters the East Palace at this time, she can only be a second concubine or even lower, but on the day when the crown prince becomes the Ninth Five Lord, the lowest position will be a concubine.

On the other hand, Qin Huai felt that the two had an engagement before and broke it off, and now they are entering the East Palace as concubines.

It's really... very inappropriate.

Although he wanted to cling to the prince's boat, he didn't want to make his reputation too bad.

So he struggled and persuaded, "It's not that my father doesn't believe you, but you also know the prince's temperament. He won't treat you favorably just because you are his ex-fiancée."

What Qin Huai didn't say was that the prince's temperament is considered good in this matter, but if he wants to put it aside, he won't be treated kindly, even if it is treated kindly, it is common.

He thought about it for a while, then nodded and followed Qin Mingyue's mind, "If you think like this, I won't stop you as a father, but if the crown prince doesn't mean it, you didn't post it."

The last words were the most important, and Qin Mingyue also understood the meaning of them, and her eyes gradually filled with firmness.

Her choice will not be wrong.

After the father and daughter made an agreement, Qin Huai began to inquire about news from the palace.

But what surprised him was that His Majesty had no intention of choosing a side concubine for the crown prince.

But he couldn't let his daughter wait so idly, so he gave money to the emperor's close servant.

Of course, no matter how daring he was, he would not send money to Shou'an, but just found a young eunuch who served in Guangming Palace.

A lot of money was sent out, but they were all like meat buns beating dogs, never returning, and no useful news came out.

However, the prince's health has not yet recovered, so it is not good for him to go directly to the prince to show his loyalty.

In desperation, Qin Huai had no choice but to contact a few good courtiers in private and get together in a restaurant.

When he was drunk, he seemed to have inadvertently mentioned that the prince has no heirs so far, and that he should take more concubines for the sake of heirs. This remark aroused the unanimous approval of several courtiers.

They all chattered about how many girls of the right age in their family were suitable to be sent to the East Palace. It involved interests, and it was in private. They didn't want to be humble, and finally they quarreled.

Qin Huai could hear the blue veins throbbing on his forehead, he made it clear when he said these words, after all, Mingyue of his family had a marriage contract with the prince, and was more suitable than any girl in Lanjing to enter the East Palace.

I was thinking of pouring them some wine, and after hearing this, they immediately suggested that the crown prince should choose a side concubine, etc., and recommended Mingyue to come out.

Who would have thought that these people drank too much, so they were so confused that they didn't bother to do anything on the surface, and only cared about their private interests.

Qin Huai held back his anger and tried to persuade him for a long time, but he didn't make a few blushing people quarrel.

Fortunately, the result was good. After the wine was withdrawn and several people drank strong tea, they decided to propose to the emperor to choose a side concubine for the prince together in the morning.

Qin Huai was overjoyed, and after paying the bill, he asked the servant to send several of them home.

On the second day, they spoke in the hall as promised.

It's just that the emperor didn't have the agreement they thought they would have, but looked at them with a frown.

The emperor scanned around and found that although the others did not speak up, their eyes were eager to try.

This made him unhappy.
