Has His Royal Highness chased his wife's crematorium today?

Chapter 77 Guess
Among the few new concubines, only two were truly blessed.

The rest was because the emperor didn't have many days to enter the harem, and the second was because the two nobles were thrown into the cold palace collectively last time, and they were also a little timid.

If you are not favored, you will not be favored. At least staying where you live now is ten times and a hundred times better than the cold palace.

But even if they were worried about accidentally offending the emperor and being driven into the cold palace, it didn't stop them from being jealous.

It's not that they didn't think about going to the queen for help again, it's just that a concubine did this before them, and then they were beaten for no reason.

Of course it was not the empress who ordered the beating, but Her Majesty.

They couldn't figure out the connection, so they simply shrank in the bedroom.

Although she doesn't enjoy the glory and wealth like a favored concubine, at least she can live a good life.

Therefore, these days, the harem has become much cleaner.

The queen still doesn't go out much as before, but she is still in charge of the affairs of the harem.

As for the other concubines with sons, some of them were in an embarrassing situation with Concubine Hui in the past, so they seldom interacted with others, and only waited for the matter to gradually fade away, and then slowly came out.

Among them, those who are like Concubine Hui, because they also have heirs, are afraid of being labeled as plotters, so they are cautious not to leave the bedroom very often.

So in the entire harem, only Concubine Zheng made the most noise.

She is also very flamboyant, she wishes to let the whole world know what reward she got.

Gradually, some gifts such as jewelry, silk and satin were no longer acceptable to Concubine Zheng.

She wanted everyone in the world to know that she was His Majesty's true love, and that she and His Majesty's children should sit in the most honorable positions in the world.

Above ten thousand people, supreme honor.

Concubine Zheng would not be so stupid as to directly tell the emperor that she wanted Zijin to be the crown prince.

She first said a few bad things about the prince, and seeing that the emperor was not angry, she boldly said, "I see, the courtiers are all praising the prince now, and His Majesty is almost lost in their eyes."

The emperor's expression did not change, but his eyes darkened.

Obviously, he agreed with Concubine Zheng's words.

It is ridiculous to be angry and jealous because your son's talents surpass your own.

But he didn't feel that he was wrong at all. Instead, he thought that the prince was too unfilial, and he didn't see him as a father in his eyes.

Concubine Zheng slowly sat beside the emperor, stretched out her hand to caress his chest, "Your Majesty, how can the prince compare with you, Your Majesty, you are the real Ninth Five-Year King."

"As for the prince, he just happened to accomplish a few things. Besides, without the help of the people your Majesty pointed out, what would the prince be able to accomplish?"

"Let's take this as an example. Fortunately, Chenqie's younger brother went to Yunguo with him, otherwise..."

She didn't finish her words, but the meaning was clear.

It means that what Xiao Changyin did was done with the help of external forces, not his own ability.

The emperor liked to hear this, but when he heard Zheng Yue's name from Concubine Zheng's mouth, he was in a bad mood.

His son is just not comparable to his father, no matter how an outsider can compare him.

Concubine Zheng laid the groundwork a lot, pretending to be unintentional, and continued, "Zijin is not too young now, and it's not good to spend time in the Ministry of Rites."

"If His Majesty transfers Zijin to another place, and then directs a few people to follow, what he does may not be as good as the Crown Prince."

"At that time, the officials in the court will know that the prince's outstanding performance is due to His Majesty's good teaching, not because they are outstanding."

As soon as her words fell, the emperor suddenly got up.

Concubine Zheng couldn't support her body for a moment, and fell directly to the ground.

Although the ground had already been covered with a velvet blanket, it still hurt to fall face-to-face.

No matter how helpless she was at this moment, Concubine Zheng didn't dare to just get up like this.

She checked her bun to make sure it wasn't too messy before looking at the emperor helplessly.

"His Majesty."

The emperor looked down at her, his face darkened, "You mean, I'm jealous of their ability to be outstanding, and I'm jealous of their ability to be outstanding?"

Concubine Zheng's words are actually in line with the emperor's heartfelt wishes.

It's just... You shouldn't say it in person, and it's too straightforward.

It seems that the emperor is very incompetent, that's why he asked a group of courtiers to support the princes when he was still in his prime.

This idea is actually not right. All the courtiers choose to support the princes, not because these princes are outstanding, but because with these princes, they still have unlimited possibilities.

In the emperor's place, the top officials are basically determined, and they will not change for a long time.

One radish and one hole, if they want to move forward, they have to fall in front of them.

As for the possibility of the former being defeated, it is better for them to directly choose a prince to support.

If one day the new emperor ascends the throne, they will also be the great heroes who assist the new emperor to ascend the throne.

Compared with before and after, they will naturally choose a path that is better for them and their family.

Concubine Zheng fell on the ground, her upper body was trembling all the time, and she said, "This concubine speaks lies, please forgive me."

No matter how she didn't understand, she also knew that she had offended the emperor at this time.

Originally thought that the emperor was going to leave with a wave of his sleeves, or reprimand her and give her a lower position before leaving with a wave of his sleeves, but the emperor looked at Concubine Zheng for a while, then bent down and helped her up himself.

He held Concubine Zheng's hand with a confused expression, "It's all for me to say this, if it gets out, I won't be able to protect you."

Concubine Zheng didn't listen to what the emperor said, she just hugged his waist and promised, "I won't dare again."

Now, even if she is not reconciled and wants to send her son to the Ministry of War, she doesn't have the courage anymore.

Not being sent to the Ministry of War is still a trivial matter. If it is self-defeating again, it will not be worth the loss if you get disgusted.

After spending the night with Concubine Zheng, the next day the emperor directly said that he was unwell and postponed the early court.

Everything is handled by the prince.

The emperor was as strong as a cow yesterday, but today he fell on the bed and was too sick to get up.

When this is said, no one will believe it.

After all, it is not that the emperor has never been infected with cold before, but he has all made up his mind to let the ministers come over to discuss the court affairs.

Therefore, when they heard the will from Shou'an at this time, the first thing everyone thought about was not to care about the emperor's body.

Instead, think about why he did it.

A few days ago, the emperor also assigned some power to the prince and let him handle it with full power.

It's just that this is very different. At that time, although it was handled with full power, the prince was still accompanied by people sent by the emperor.

Not now.

Everyone looked at each other one after another, and they all saw a meaning in each other's eyes.

Could it be that His Majesty is planning to abdicate early and let the crown prince ascend the throne, so he was asked to deal with this in advance.

Although this guess is a bit unreliable, after all, the emperor is not very old, but apart from this guess, it seems difficult to think of anything else.
