There is a black lotus in the deep palace

Chapter 121 The Solitary Promise You
Seeing her arrogant and disgusted face, Xia Houjue raised the corners of her lips.

"it is good!"

"For the sake of your help, Gu will agree to you!"

"There is an opportunity in front of you, I wonder if you are interested?"

"October autumn hunting, I know, this time it doesn't count!" Tang Wanning vetoed it.

Xia Houjue just felt that he had touched his nose. Well, the wife is a bit hard to please, but it doesn't bother him.

He is the prince above tens of millions, the future king of a country, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, so don't be in a hurry.

……

Time passed in a hurry, and it was the first day of junior high school in a blink of an eye.

The first day of the lunar new year is a day of greetings, and Fengyang Palace became lively early on.

The three serious daughter-in-laws, Concubine Ping, Concubine Crown Prince and Concubine Chen, were the first to arrive.

After saluting and taking her seat, the queen cast her amiable gaze on Tang Wanning.

"How did your child lose so much weight?"

"No matter how hard the disaster relief is, you should take good care of yourself!" The queen said in a friendly, caring and loving tone.

Tang Waning admired it as if everyone's arguing in the Yushufang had never happened a few days ago.

"When you return to your mother, I will be honored to go to the south of the Yangtze River with your highness to help the disaster. Although I can't help you much, I dare not slack off. I do odd jobs every day to help the victims. I don't dare to do anything for the victims. be lazy!"

Tang Wanning wasn't guilty at all when she said this, it was clearly telling the truth.

Princess Chen suddenly covered her lips and smiled.

"Looking at the face of the third sister-in-law, I know that you must have worked very hard. There is a good white jade ointment for the skin in my concubine's place. I will send someone to send you some later!"

"Although it may not be possible to change the third sister-in-law back to her previous appearance, it is better than nothing, and it is also a little bit of my heart from my siblings!"

Although the words were well-intentioned, she looked very eye-catching with a sneer on her face, as if she was poor and ugly and needed alms from her.

Joke, does she need it?Is she rare?

"Oh, I would like to thank the fourth sibling for their kindness, but..." She rolled her eyes and said with a smile.

"My face is just like this. No matter how good it is, it's useless, but the two dowry maids around me like it very much. I used to have this kind of thing, and I gave it to them directly!"

It means, I gave all the things you are so precious to the maid myself.

When Princess Chen heard this, her face turned green: "You..."

"Okay!" The queen smiled pretendingly.

"Your sisters-in-law and this palace are all aware of it, but you are still young, you still have to learn to take care of yourself!"

"Even if you don't do anything else, you have to think about the emperor's heir. You should learn from Princess Ping. She has been pregnant for eight months, and she will give birth in more than one month. You are also paying attention!"

The queen's eyes stayed on Princess Ping's stomach for a long time, and finally looked at Princess Chen.

Although she tried her best to treat everyone equally, any fool could see that the only one she was anxious to urge was Princess Chen.

But Tang Wanning didn't bother to care about these, birth is impossible, impossible in this life, real reminders and false reminders are useless.

Anyway, Xia Houjue has so many concubines in his backyard, so he doesn't have to worry about being left behind.

Wouldn't it be good to live well?The medical conditions in ancient times were so poor, if something happened and she died again, who would she turn to for reasoning?
"Yes!" Princess Chen stood up respectfully, her face flushed a little.

Tang Wanning also got up quickly and made a gesture.

Princess Ping wanted to get up with her eight-month-old belly, but the queen quickly stopped her.

"Sit down, from today onwards you don't have to come to pay your respects, just take care of yourself at home, if you need anything, just tell me, or ask your mother and concubine directly!"

"Thank you, Empress Dowager!" Concubine Ping panicked.

The queen nodded, pulled a few people to talk for a while, and told them to disperse because there was nothing wrong anyway.

After the juniors paid their respects, the concubines also came, and the empress lost her mood, so she said she was tired and asked them to go back.

……

In the inner hall of Fengyang Palace, the empress was lying on the soft couch feeling restless.

"Why do I always feel that something is going to happen? I've been going up and down in my heart for the past two days!"

"Your Majesty is too tired!" Nanny Qi brought a bowl of herbal jujube tea.

"We have convincing evidence about the matter in the south. The prefect of Chuzhou has already received a large sum of money from us, so it's time to shut up. The prince's behavior was not witnessed by one or two people. So many beautiful musicians are witnesses!"

"We have all the witnesses and material evidence in our hands. This time, even if the prince wants to stand up, it will be difficult!"

The queen frowned and nodded slowly: "Yes!"

She gently touched her cheeks, carefully stroked the fine lines on her forehead and the drooping corners of her eyes, feeling very melancholy.

"I don't know that I can plan for Yan'er for a few more years!"

"The two of them, I am always worried. One or two are still too young, the city is not enough, but Fan Yan'er has half the planning of the prince, so we mother and son will not be afraid of anything!"

"Your Majesty, don't worry too much." Nanny Qi persuaded with a smile.

"Everything is in our plan, you don't have to worry too much, but it's time to prepare for the autumn hunt. The emperor will leave in a few days!"

The queen closed her eyes wearily and rested for a moment, then suddenly opened them again.

"Forget it, let's make preparations according to last year's old routine, let Yan's daughter-in-law come over to help, and let the Shang Palace Bureau worry about the rest."

"Hey!"

Nanny Qi stepped back.

……

It is said that women have a sixth sense, and the queen is no exception.

When the Queen of Fengyang Palace was restless, Emperor Jingyuan of Jinhua Palace was furious.

"Presumptuous! Presumptuous! How dare you show me all these things!" Emperor Jing Yuan threw a small note on the ground.

The note was the result of his private investigation, and the truth was clearly written on it.

That is: the prince is indeed dedicated to disaster relief every day, the people in the south of the Yangtze River are indeed well placed, and the prince is innocent and wronged.

Li Baoyuan carefully picked up the note and put it on the case.

"Your Majesty, this is the result of our own investigation. Neither the Empress nor the Crown Prince know about it!"

Without knowing it, there is no possibility of being bribed, that is to say, what is on the note is the truth.

The old emperor obviously understood this truth.

But he was just angry, for the simple reason that he was slapped in the face.

He had always trusted the Queen Youjia, but at this time, he forged witnesses and material evidence to slander the Prince and deceive himself.

Where does this put his face and prestige?
"Come on!"

"Bring those Gou people into the capital secretly!"

Although the queen manages the harem properly, it wins his heart.

But this kind of princely party struggle obviously touched his bottom line.

If you slander the prince, the one who benefits is the Prince Chen, isn't it?
In the matter of coveting the throne, no one can please, whoever does it will die, there is no mercy.

"Yes!" Li Baoyuan's eyes dimly lit up, and he retreated slowly.
