Chapter 26 The Emperor's Favor
After Xiao Jinghan woke up in Prince Xian's Mansion, Emperor Wen immediately sent someone to bring him back to the palace.
The first thing he did was to ask Doctor Wen Mu, the director of the Imperial Medical Bureau, to see him. After the diagnosis, Doctor Wen came to see Emperor Wen with a grim expression on his face.
Doctor Wen thought for a moment before cautiously saying, "Your Majesty, Prince Xiao's external injuries are not serious. But the poison in his body may mean he won't survive this year!"
Emperor Wen frowned and asked: "Can Prince Xiao leave offspring with his current health?"
Doctor Wen shook his head: "Your Majesty, this is difficult!"
Emperor Wen warned Wen Mu: "Don't let anyone else know about this!"
After Wen Mu left, Emperor Wen came to the secret room. The walls of this secret room were covered with portraits of a woman. Her every frown and smile was so vivid, as if she could walk out of the portrait in the next second. The person who painted these pictures must have known this woman very well, so that he could secretly paint her stunning beauty from different angles.
Emperor Wen looked at the portraits silently in the secret room, his heart filled with complicated emotions. This woman was the love of his life, but he could not get her. He could only express his longing through these portraits.
The woman in the portrait is wearing a gorgeous dress, sparkling jewels on her head, a gentle smile on her lips, and charming eyes. Her every movement and expression is so elegant, as if she is a goddess descending to the world.
Emperor Wen was filled with emotion. He recalled the first time he saw this woman. It was a sunny morning. He was walking in the palace and accidentally saw a woman dancing among the flowers. Her figure was light and graceful, like a butterfly flying among the flowers. Emperor Wen was attracted by her beauty and couldn't help but walk up to her and chat with her. From that moment on, he knew that he had fallen in love with this foreign woman.
As time went by, Emperor Wen missed this woman more and more. He couldn't stand the days without her, but she married the general he trusted the most!
Although the woman left the palace, Emperor Wen's longing for her never diminished. He tried every means to keep her by his side...
Look carefully, the eyes of the woman in the painting are exactly the same as Xiao Jinghan's. Yes! The woman in the painting is Xiao Jinghan's mother, the wife of Wu'an King Xiao Qichen, and the youngest princess of Youli Kingdom, Xiao He.
Emperor Wen sat in the secret room with a sad face. He looked at Xiao He's portrait and said, "Xiao He! I have never thought of hurting you! I will raise your son as my own son."
"I'm sorry for not protecting him! He not only has the Blue Sky Poison, but also other poisons. He may not survive this year."
Emperor Wen sighed: "Don't worry! I will find a way to send someone to Youli to find the antidote!"
After the eighth princess got married, Emperor Wen pardoned the queen from her house arrest, but did not return her the power to manage the harem.
The queen thought that her phoenix seal was still in the hands of Concubine An, and her eyes were full of hatred. Over the years, the Li family had helped Emperor Wen do so many things and cleared so many obstacles.
Now that Emperor Wen had complete control of the court, he began to attack the Li family. Just like the Empress Dowager's Xue family, who helped Emperor Wen seize the throne, Emperor Wen felt that the Empress Dowager's maternal family threatened his imperial power.
All the officials of the Xue family were sent out of the capital. Emperor Wen promoted the Xue family members on the surface, but in fact he kept them away from the center of power!
Although Empress Dowager Xue was very angry about her son's behavior, she could do nothing about it. Empress Dowager Xue knew Emperor Wen's temperament too well. If she angered Emperor Wen, the Xue family would disappear in Dazhao State!
Now Emperor Wen and Empress Dowager Xue are still a loving mother and filial son. As long as the demands are not too excessive, Emperor Wen will still take care of the descendants of the Xue family to some extent.
The queen walked to Empress Dowager Xue's Cining Palace, she stroked her palace skirt and sneered in her heart. The queen dowager was the one who cared about Emperor Wen the most. If the queen dowager felt that someone wanted to shake Emperor Wen's throne, the queen dowager would definitely stand on her side.
After the Queen left the Cining Palace, Empress Dowager Xue went to see Emperor Wen in person.
Empress Dowager Xue was a woman of extraordinary wisdom and ruthless and decisive. It was she who successfully suppressed the forces of all parties and allowed Emperor Wen to ascend the throne.
Although Emperor Wen did not like the Xue family monopolizing power in the court in his early years, he was very respectful to his mother.
Empress Dowager Xue could not bear to see her son being dominated by her in-laws, so she did not stop Emperor Wen from suppressing the Xue family.
Although she hasn't asked about court affairs for a long time, it doesn't mean that she is not aware of the power of various parties.
Empress Dowager Xue said to Emperor Wen: "Emperor, the crown prince and several princes have also reached adulthood, it is time to choose a concubine. These matters still need the empress to preside over the overall situation."
Emperor Wen frowned and said, "Mother, choose concubines for the crown prince and the princes. Qing Huan is also acceptable!"
Queen Mother Xue lowered her eyes and twirled her Buddhist beads with her fingers: "Emperor! You blindly support military generals. You must remember that the King of Wu'an almost rebelled! No matter how much the civil officials jump around, they don't have the military power to rebel. If you indulge the military generals too much, you will raise a tiger to cause trouble!"
There was a storm in Emperor Wen's eyes, and he was furious. He recalled the report from the secret guards that year that Wu'an King Xiao Qichen was preparing to lead his troops to attack Shangjing.
Emperor Wen's face was calm, and he replied respectfully: "I will ask the Queen to preside over the selection of concubines for the Crown Prince and the Prince."
Not long after Empress Dowager Xue returned to the Cining Palace, Concubine An took the palace maids to the Queen's Kunning Palace in person.
Concubine An handed the Phoenix Seal to Madam Liu, with a smile on her pretty face: "Empress, His Majesty had no choice but to give the Phoenix Seal to me. You know, I am the most lazy person and don't like to work hard."
Concubine An pretended to smile tenderly again: "But His Majesty told me that the Crown Prince went to the stable to grab food, and the Eighth Princess...Alas! The ministers in the court and the people in the society are all watching! If I don't punish my sister, it will be difficult to convince everyone!"
The queen was furious, but she had to appear amiable on the outside: "It's time for the crown prince and several other princes to choose their concubines. I wonder which young lady from aristocratic family the second prince likes? I'll have to choose carefully for him!"
This An Qinghuan, if she is not taught a lesson, she will think she can do whatever she wants in the harem!
Concubine An's expression remained unchanged: "The Queen doesn't know yet, right? His Majesty has allowed Cheng Jin to choose his own wife today! And tomorrow he will confer the title of King of Qin on Cheng Jin in the court!"
The queen's face changed slightly, but she quickly regained her composure: "Then I have to congratulate my sister!"
After Concubine An left, the Queen no longer had the same momentum as before. Although the Phoenix Seal was taken back, Concubine An and the Second Prince got more!
Concubine An was very satisfied with this result. Sooner or later, the Phoenix Seal would be returned to the Queen. However, the Queen valued power too much and even asked the Queen Mother to come to Emperor Wen. Emperor Wen would only feel more disgusted with the Queen!
Emperor Wen asked Concubine An for the Phoenix Seal, feeling guilty towards her. So when Concubine An asked for the right to choose a wife for the Second Prince, Emperor Wen not only agreed readily, but also wanted to make the Second Prince the King of Qin!
This is the brilliance of Concubine An. She doesn’t fight for anything, and people will just bring opportunities to her!
After the Queen Mother heard Mammy's story about Kunning Palace, she twisted her Buddhist beads and said calmly: "Noble Concubine An is a wonderful person! She taught Cheng Jin to be a man with a big vision! It is a blessing for Cheng Jin to have such a mother! The prince was misled by the Queen and the Prime Minister! Alas! This old woman will not interfere! It depends on their own luck!"
