Foster son and husband

Chapter 150 Mutual Conspiracy
The queen mother said: "But the Qin family..."

"There is nothing wrong with the Qin family!"

The emperor said: "Sickness, cowardice, and not being able to appear on the stage... These are just one-sided words. I think she is very good! Gentle and elegant, dignified and generous, isn't it said that she is in charge of the Houfu? Nuoda is a Houfu, and she is very good." How could he be able to take care of himself and be truly talented and beautiful? How can he not be on the stage? Junying just wants to marry a flat wife, but I don’t allow it—I grew up with him since we were young, and we have lived and died together. Now I am the emperor, There can only be one queen, how many wives does he want?"

The Empress Dowager suddenly saw some kind of hope, and her eyes lit up: "There are too few concubines in the harem. The four concubines below the empress cannot always be vacant. The Ai family will decide for you, and select another batch of beautiful women to enter the palace..."

The emperor covered his mouth with his sleeve and coughed: "Since the empress was pregnant, the empress has selected two batches of beautiful women to enter the palace. There are no less than twenty new concubines, and the rest promises are often countless... My son is not in good health recently. , Zhang Jingyun and Xia Xueyuan are taking medicine, let's talk about it later!"

The queen mother looked at him worriedly: "But what's wrong? Why didn't Zhang Jingyun and Lingxuzi tell the Ai family about it?"

"My mother doesn't understand medical science, so what can I do if I know it? It's just adding troubles in vain. The two of them can just take care of the son! The son has government affairs to do, and it's over. Reduce your clothes, and take care of your phoenix body!"

After the emperor finished speaking, he stood up and bowed to the queen mother, and was about to leave, but the queen mother hurriedly asked: "The matter about Junying..."

The emperor replied: "It's okay not to mention the marriage! Xu Junying's wife has done nothing wrong, so there is no reason to marry again!"

"The Ai family promised the old cousin of the Zhuang family to give Zhuang Yulan a marriage. If the word is not believed, what face will the Ai family have?"

The empress dowager first showed a sullen expression, staring at the emperor, and suddenly her eyes turned red, and tears dripped down. She took out her handkerchief, wiped her tears and said, "Your brothers and sisters are like this! I have cared for you since I was a child. , the wings became stiff, and each flew away! You followed Junying to the border, worrying about your mother, sleeping and eating, fearing that you might make a mistake, and finally looking forward to your return. My eyes are about to go blind from crying! Su De, don't listen to dissuasion, insist on recruiting a white-clothed horse with no fame and no ambition to make progress... Finally, seeing you inherit the big position, I thought it would save my worries, but who knew it was even more sad—— Su De's entourage was short-lived, causing her to become a widow at a young age. King Qi... was greedy for fun and refused to marry the concubine. As the eldest son of the emperor, how many things do you listen to my arrangement? You don't take me as a queen mother seriously! You know how much I have suffered and suffered for you!"

The emperor had already walked a few steps, and he had to stop after hearing these words. The queen mother's magic spell was so strong that he couldn't run away. He sighed, and turned around sadly:
"Parents have raised their sons, and their love is as high as mountains and deep as seas. It is difficult to repay the whole life of being a child! The son knows the hardships of the mother's mother, but he is willing to do anything if he can obey his mother's wishes: King Qi has been forced to marry him within a month. Wife; Sude, there are many good men in the world, let her choose again; the son and the queen gave birth to the grandson of the mother...what will the mother do with the son, but please tell me, the son will do it!"

The queen mother snorted: "How dare you tell the emperor? Just ask the emperor for a favor to let Aijia save face! You didn't make Miss Chen Er as your queen, and Aijia didn't argue with you too much. After all, Miss Chen Er is no better than the queen. She is a bit small, but you are only allowed to give her the title of respectful concubine, but it is the worst thing, she is your dear uncle and cousin! Miss Chen Wu, who entered the palace last month, is the youngest daughter of Mrs. Lin's family , The queen's cousin is much stronger. The two of them have been promoted to the concubine. I think Miss Chen Wu's promotion to be a virtuous concubine is perfect! She is quite talented. The queen has just given birth to a prince and is weak. Let her come up By helping to take care of the affairs of the sixth house, the queen can also confine herself with peace of mind. As for Junying and his cousin..."

"The son understands, the queen mother will take a rest!"

The emperor motioned for the court lady who brought the tea to come forward, took a cup of hot tea, handed it to the Empress Dowager, and said gently:

"The affairs of the harem, the empress can't move now, let the empress take care of it first! As for Miss Chen Wu, just do as the empress said, and give her the title of virtuous concubine. After all, she is still young, she seems to be just 14 years old? Not yet. What do you know? Only stay with the queen mother, and the mother will teach her first, and then talk about it in a year or two. The cousin of the Zhuang family, the mother queen, let someone else, Xu Junying has a wife enough, and can’t marry another wife! The mother must be considerate of the son—he is The most reliable person around my son holds the military power and is in charge of important frontier defense affairs. He is too busy to take care of his daily duties. If he returns home and encounters the backyard noises and entanglement, who will make his mood disturbed, who will my son rely on?"

The empress dowager's eyes widened, and she thought deeply: "The Ai family forgot about this! But the emperor is too worried, how can you men manage the backyard since ancient times? The old lady and his wife are still alive in his family. How many wives and concubines are there? It can't be messed up!"

The emperor made a serious face: "No! It might not be a big deal if it is light, but if it is serious, it is related to the stability of the world. The queen mother must take into account the interests of her son!"

The queen mother pondered: "Since that's the case, then I'll think about it again, and make another marriage with the Zhuang family's girl!"

Finally, the mother and son reached a certain consensus, the emperor bid farewell to the empress dowager, left the Palace of Compassion and Ning, and wanted to go to the Hall of Renhe ahead.

The fourth concubine whose rank is second only to the empress was forcibly inserted by the empress dowager into a virtuous concubine. The emperor felt a heavy loss and blamed himself for being careless. Emotions, ran away before crying, but this time I still miscalculated for some reason.

He couldn't help scolding Xu Junying bitterly: So what if you disobey Mrs. Xu?In terms of crime, he still has to pass the emperor's test, isn't he still able to push his old friend out to be criticized and ridiculed?This kid knows how to be a man, he doesn't want to have a flat wife, and he doesn't want to make the old lady angry. In consideration of filial piety, he pushed the matter onto himself. You have to make a virtuous concubine to do it, it's really pissing off!
The next time something like this happens again, you must excuse it!What happened to the emperor?The emperor also has to take filial piety into consideration, and he can't do anything arbitrarily!
Not far from the Palace of Compassion and Ning, a man suddenly jumped out of the stone forest with lush flowers and trees on the roadside, with a golden crown and purple robe, tall and handsome, who else is not King Qi?

The guards in front of the imperial court heard some turmoil, and immediately surrounded him. When they saw that it was King Qi, they breathed a sigh of relief and spread out a little.

The emperor was not happy at all, seeing that King Qi didn't take the good road, but ran around in the imperial garden, doing things that disturbed people's hearts, he couldn't get angry, and pointed at him and scolded:

"Are you a monkey? There is a rocky forest where you have to go in and drill. I think it's best for you to live in the deep forest!"

King Qi was used to being scolded by his elder brother since he was a child, so he didn't take it seriously. He bowed to the ground and responded calmly: "Return to the emperor: My brother is not a monkey! My brother doesn't like living in the deep forest either!"

"Dare to do this next time, and you will be punished as a collision with the Holy Driver!"

"The younger brother dare not!"

King Qi raised his eyes to look at the emperor, and bowed to him again: "The empress's sister-in-law gave birth to a dragon son, congratulations! My ministers hereby congratulate the emperor!"

The emperor's expression softened: "You can still speak well! Don't forget what I said: Within one month, find the woman you like, marry a wife and start a family!"

King Qi lowered his eyes: "It's so easy to find! It's not a matter of a month for the emperor to marry the queen!"

"You!" The emperor stared at him: "How dare you compare with me!"

"Don't dare! But please give me some more time."

"It won't work for one more day! If you only care about fun and don't do business, then just wait and see, I will give you the Fourth Miss of the Chen family to be the princess!"

The Fourth Miss of the Chen family?The well-known fat girl is as fat as a calf, and she can't even get her turn in the draft, and if she is carried into the Prince Qi's mansion, she will be mad at him to death just by looking at her!
King Qi's face changed several times, but he didn't jump up. He bowed his head and said: "I beg the emperor to let my younger brother go! Give the daughter of the Chen family a way out!"

The emperor stared at him: "What do you want? This is the will of the queen mother. If you have anything to say, go and discuss it with the queen mother!"

After finishing speaking, he raised his head and walked away. The King of Qi waited for him to turn around the gallery, then straightened his robe and strode into the Palace of Compassion.

The Empress Dowager was half lying on the couch, enjoying the fresh preserved fruit presented by the maid. Just when she heard the news that King Qi was coming, she saw that King Qi was approaching and waved the maid to go away. The Empress Dowager asked:
"Where did Bao'er come from? You can see your brother, you should congratulate him!"

"Don't worry, queen mother, I understand this, I told my brother!"

"That's good! Where's Sude? You didn't mean to go to Huangzhuang outside the city to pick her up. Why don't you see her?"

King Qi grabbed the preserved fruit on the low table and ate it, and said, "Sude refuses to go back, she is having fun in the village... But the queen mother has seen the grandson of the emperor? Is it good?"

The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "That's good! Like your brother, but a little smaller, alas! Empress Sun's physique, it's good to be able to develop it!"

King Qi asked: "I heard that many women from other places entered the palace to pray for the queen and the dragon son. Didn't the mother's old cousin also come? Didn't she beg you to marry Weiyuanhou? Why didn't the mother take this opportunity to come down?" Yizhi, how long will you drag him on?"

The Empress Dowager sighed: "It's just the Zhuang girl's bad luck, she missed the marriage with Junying again and again..."

"How does the queen mother say this?"

The queen mother glanced at him: "You only heard something in the back hall, and you kept it in mind, which is more reasonable than your brother - your brother, he doesn't allow Junying to marry an equal wife, saying that if there is a regular wife, he will even have an equal wife, I'm afraid He's causing chaos in his backyard, so he can't take care of business with peace of mind!"

King Qi was stunned for a moment: "That is to prevent the mother from issuing a decree to give the marriage? Isn't the girl from the Zhuang family waiting in vain?"

The Empress Dowager took a sip of tea: "That's okay, wait for Ai's family to point her to another good marriage!"
