Red Mansion Fanfiction, Yuanchun became a concubine because of her mother's status

The matter about Yuanchun is still spreading in the palace.

As the Imperial Noble Consort, Yuanchun was in charge of the palace affairs at the time, and she would definitely make good use of information like this.

If you want to establish your authority, you must do it very early.

"Your Majesty, this Concubine Chun is so despicable. She knows your identities best. How dare she spread such rumors!" Qingyan was furious.

"Pass the order down. Anyone who is heard discussing my affairs will be beaten to death." Yuanchun said.

Although Concubine Chun was hateful, the key point was that no one in the palace took her, the Imperial Noble Consort, seriously.

"My queen, isn't beating too severe?" Qing Mo asked.

"Kill the chicken to scare the monkey. If I don't make them afraid of me, how can they shut up?

Don't worry, even if His Majesty knew about this, he would not take action." Yuanchun said.

This method is brutal, but if you want to establish your authority, you must use heavy hands.

She has already given the order, and if anyone is still talking about it, they are courting death.

“When the Empress was still alive, she didn’t beat the palace maids and eunuchs to death even if she knew someone was talking about her.

Madam…” Qing Mo was still worried.

“The situation back then was different from what it is now.

Speaking of beating to death, haven’t many people died in the palace in the past year?

Only I dare to use such a method, Your Majesty should thank me." Yuanchun said.

The rules in the palace are indeed not as good as before.

I don’t know how the Queen Mother managed the palace affairs in the past year.

It seemed that after losing her niece, the Queen, the Queen Mother had lost her voice.

"Your Majesty has said so. We will arrange it right away," Qingyan said.

The queen must have her reasons for doing this.

After Yuanchun spoke, she quickly caught several palace maids who were talking about her. After beating several of them to death with a stick, Si Yuntai came to her door.

"My beloved concubine has been acting a little too aggressively lately," Si Yuntai said.

When Yuanchun beat the palace maid to death with a stick, she didn't care whether there was someone behind her.

It would be fine if there was no one behind the scenes, but if someone else's palace maid was killed, that person would definitely file a complaint.

"The rules in the palace are becoming more and more lax, and I can do nothing about it.

If Your Majesty thinks that I have done something wrong, then I will not be involved in the palace affairs." Yuanchun said.

Too many palace maids had been beaten to death recently, and she had not checked the people behind them.

However, when His Majesty asked her about this, she had already guessed the reason.

"There are many ways to punish palace maids and eunuchs, but why did you just beat them to death?" Si Yuntai asked.

Even if he was the emperor, it was impossible for him to beat a palace maid to death over such a trivial matter.

The Imperial Concubine's behavior was quite serious.

When my mother and Wei Shuren were in charge of the palace affairs, they never did this.

"Your Majesty, if punishing them would have worked, I wouldn't have used such harsh measures.

Besides, the people have already been caned to death. Does Your Majesty want to help them overturn the verdict now?

Your Majesty, there are so many monks in the palace, and their hearts are about to change.

I am doing this for your majesty, and it is time to let those monks know what imperial power is." Yuanchun explained.

This was the only time she went too far.

Just because she has a son who is a monk, no matter how excessive she is, His Majesty or the ladies in the harem will have to bear the consequences.

Besides, she didn't punish the young lady in the palace.

Like palace maids and eunuchs, I don’t know how many of them die in the palace every year.

"It's not good for your reputation."

He originally thought that the Imperial Concubine was a very easy-going person, but he didn't expect that her first move would be fatal.

Think about the palace maids and eunuchs in Changchun Palace, who had served her for so many years, and none of them died.

"reputation?

Your Majesty, are you joking with me?

I just dealt with a few palace maids and eunuchs who did not abide by the palace rules. How does it have anything to do with my reputation?

Your Majesty, are you too easily influenced by others? You are not like the decisive Majesty that I know at all."

Let her think about it, who is whispering in Si Yuntai's ear at this moment.

Ok……

Recently, the only places His Majesty has visited are those few monks.

Could it be that some monk said that?

"Ahem..." Si Yuntai's expression became unnatural.

He did go to the Imperial Concubine only after being reminded by someone.

"How is the seventh prince doing with his studies?" Si Yuntai changed the subject.

Speaking of the prince...

It was time for him to consider the issue of the crown prince. As for the candidate for the crown prince, the seventh prince was the first choice.

"Your Majesty, why do you need to ask me?

Everything is fine with me and the Seventh Prince.

Your Majesty can take some time to ask about the seventh prince's homework. You sons need to spend more time together."

Si Yuntai seldom mentioned her son, but whenever he did, Yuanchun would think of other people.

Even though her son is still young,...

As princes, the struggle began when they were young.

And she has already made preparations.

The people around her son were not only skilled in martial arts, but also had medical skills that she taught herself.

She had tried, and even the monks in the palace could not harm her two sons unless they joined forces.

"The seventh prince is five years old now, and it's time to put the issue of a study companion on the agenda. Do you have any candidates?" Si Yuntai said.

Although he didn't want to admit old age, but...

He knows his own body.

"Before this incident, I had never thought about it.

"Your Majesty, do you have any good candidates?" Yuanchun asked.

The status of being the emperor's companion is not ordinary.

Although the Seventh Prince is not the emperor now, everyone in the court knows that the Seventh Prince is the popular candidate to succeed to the throne.

The mother of the seventh prince is the highest-ranking concubine in the palace. Her mother's family is the Jia family, one of the four great families. He has the support of the four great families behind him.

Do you think that's all that matters?

The support of the monks and clan members is the most crucial.

"Li Shouren, the grandson of Marquis Zhongyong; Rong Jingran, the grandson of Prime Minister Rong; Qian Weiman, the third son of Mr. Qian from the Ministry of Revenue; and Mu Fengyun, the youngest son of General Weiyuan.

I plan to arrange the four of them to be Yu Han's study companions." Si Yuntai said.

Yuanchun was a little surprised.

Although she was a concubine, she still had some knowledge of the affairs of the previous dynasty.

The grandsons of these senior officials actually served as study companions to her son, which has a different meaning.

By then, everyone in Tianqi will know that His Majesty has chosen her son to be the next emperor.

"Your Majesty, have you thought about it?" Yuanchun asked.

These companions will be her son's in the future. Your Majesty has arranged these people as companions for her son, and in the future, the aristocratic families they belong to can only support her son.

Not to mention the distant past, the girl from the Zhongyong Marquis’s family entered the palace and became a concubine.

They don't support their daughter?

"Some things need to be decided decisively," Si Yuntai said.

If time permits, he doesn't want to make plans for his son so soon.

Now he is controlled by these monks. If he does not let go when he can choose his successor, he may be in a passive position in the future.

"I, your Majesty, would like to thank you on behalf of the Seventh Prince." Yuanchun understood.

She may not understand what Si Yuntai is thinking and worrying about, but the starting point of all this is for the good of her son.
