Chapter 425: concubine concubine
The emperor directly smashed the teacup in his hand on the ground, and was so angry that he forgot to ask Xue Wanqing and Xie Zhiwei why they had a conflict, and said angrily, "Ridiculous! Brothers turned against each other for the sake of a woman. Is the fourth brother crazy?"
Lu Yan bowed slightly, his eyelids drooped, and a cold light flashed in his enchanting eyes.
There is nothing in the palace that can hide him. He has already heard the report of the reason for the conflict between Princess Duanxian and Xue Wanqing. Although the details are not very clear, it involves him.
He can guess what Xue Wanqing said?
Lu Yan's expression remained unchanged, and he poured another cup of herbal tea into the hands of the emperor, saying, "The emperor calms down, the ancients said that if you are young, you will admire your parents, if you are good, you will admire Shaoai, your highness, the fourth prince, is old. , I think it is not a bad thing."
"I know he is old, so I asked the queen to hold this flower party, ordering all the daughters of civil and military officials of the fourth rank and above to come to the palace. Why did he choose this girl from the Xue family? Xue What is the situation at home now, he doesn't know?"
When the emperor said this, he suddenly remembered Xue Shipeng and asked, "Is Xue Shipeng still alive?"
"Without the emperor's will, I dare not let him die. If this time, His Royal Highness the fourth prince chooses Miss Xue as his concubine, I am afraid that I will kneel down and ask Xue Shipeng to be released from prison. I dare not do whatever I want for the emperor. .”
The emperor was very satisfied with Lu Yan, waved his hand, and comforted him, "Don't worry, how can you use Xue's lintel as my in-laws?"
In the end, it is his own son. Even if the emperor dislikes it, he will not let Xiao Changxuan lose face in front of the courtiers, but let Xue Wanqing be the main concubine, how is this possible? Even the side concubine praised him.
Lu Yan is worthy of being a loyal person to the emperor. He saw the embarrassment of the emperor and suggested, "Your Majesty, since His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince refuses to make Miss Xue a concubine, Miss Xue is really not worthy of being a concubine. , I think that if you don't reward her as the concubine of His Highness the Fourth Prince, it is also right to protect the face of His Highness the Fourth Prince."
"Concubine concubine?" The emperor was stunned for a moment, and then he understood that this is below the side concubine and above the concubine. Although he didn't have this rank before, as a ninety-five venerable, it doesn't matter whether he has it or not. one word? "
"This is also a grade that I specially set up for this girl from the Xue family. Just do as you say, it's simply embarrassing."
Said it was a rank, since the emperor didn't say anything about her dignity, she was no different from a concubine, it just sounds nice.
At the end of Shenshi, Xie Zhiwei and others bid farewell to the empress and left the palace. The carriage still came out from Xihuamen. Xie Zhiwei sent Cui Nanjia home first. On the way, Cui Nanjia was worried. Your majesty will also consider many things. His majesty's idea of marrying the Cui family was years ago. At that time, I was not accused of marrying the king of Chen County. This is not what it used to be. The majesty has to reconsider this matter. Look, things will turn around."
Although, no matter which prince Cui Nanjia marries, the Xie family and the Cui family will not participate in the succession, but the emperor does not think so.
Cui Nanjia couldn't help but suddenly realized. She looked at her cousin who was three or four years younger than herself, and felt very ashamed.
"Cousin, thank you. It's getting late today, so I won't invite you in. You have time. Let's go to Famen Temple to offer incense together."
"Well, after fourth uncle's marriage is over, let's go out to play."
After Cui Nanjia got off the carriage, Xie Zhiwei returned. Her carriage entered the Dongjiao Gate. Yuan Shi had already led the people waiting. Seeing her, she looked up and down, "I heard that you were in the palace with Miss Xue's Biao If there is a conflict, she didn't do anything to you, did she?"
"What can she do to me? Mother, don't worry, I won't be bullied."
"That's good, Mei Mei, it's not your mother who taught you to be bad, people are outside, if someone bullies you, you must not pay attention to some false names and swallow your anger, at least find your place first, and you can't be bullied by others, everything else Imaginary."
"Mother and daughter know it!" Xie Zhiwei said coquettishly, holding Yuan's arm.
"Sister, sister!"
Just after entering the yard, Xie Mingxi rushed out of the house, threw the general in his arms on the ground, and threw himself into Xie Zhiwei's arms, "Sister, you are finally back, I brought you tofu skin buns, but It's delicious."
Xie Mingxi's lips still had grease on them. Xie Zhi smiled and nodded his nose, "If you want to eat, eat it, just leave one for my sister."
Xie Mingxi's mind was punctured, a little embarrassed, buried her head in her sister's arms, and was pushed away by Xie Zhiwei.
Xie Yuanbai was dressed in a green cloth straight suit, standing at the door and looking at their mother and son. Xie Zhiwei hurriedly led his younger brother to salute his father. Xie Yuanbai nodded, "Your mother is waiting for you to come back for dinner!"
In the palace, Xue Wanqing knelt on the blue brick floor, her mind was buzzing, and she couldn't believe what she heard, until the **** who came to deliver the decree asked in a thin voice, "Miss Xue, what are you doing?" , do you still want to resist the decree?"
Xue Wanqing swallowed a mouthful of old blood, she closed her eyes, and raised her hands in humiliation, "Minister Xue Wanqing accepts the order!"
The **** stuffed the imperial decree into her hand, laughed mockingly, and said, "Miss Xue is famous now, even the emperor said, this concubine, but the emperor specially set it up for you, What an honor it is!"
Xue Wanqing pursed her lips, two lines of tears rolled down her face, she clenched her roots tightly, holding the imperial decree tightly in her hands, for the humiliation today, she will definitely repay it a hundred times and a thousand times in the future.
She knew that the emperor's imperial decree came so quickly, if there was no help from Lu Yan, her surname would not be Xue. Lu Yan, a treacherous and miserly villain, would only hide in a dark corner and do these treacherous things.
Eunuchs are eunuchs after all, with twisted minds and dirty thoughts.
When Xue Wanqing received the imperial decree, Xiao Changxuan was also receiving the imperial decree. He couldn't tell what it was like in his heart. He was ecstatic but also worried. Will his Qinger be sad?
Qing'er is such a proud person. He is in the mud but looks up at the bright moon. His father actually gave her to him as a concubine, and he can only accept Qing'er after his concubine passes through the door. Isn't that right? Qing'er's humiliation?
What should he do? All of this is Xie Zhiwei's fault. If Xie Zhiwei and Qing'er had a conflict today, how could the father suddenly make such an order?
Xie Zhiwei is a lady from a famous family, the eldest daughter of the Zanying family, she is clearly a scourge.
When Xie Zhiwei heard the news, she was very surprised. How could such a high-minded person like Xue Wanqing be willing to commit herself to being a concubine? But thinking of her previous life, she still relied on climbing Xiao Changxuan's bed, being a concubine was nothing to her.
