The Legend of Zhen Huan: Entering the Palace to Become the Queen Mother

"what?"

The queen looked at the little maid in disbelief and asked.

"How come you don't know yet?"

"This Miss Jianqiu is so bold! She actually tried to assassinate the Emperor at a palace banquet. Isn't she courting death?"

"As for you, I guess you're also not immune to this. If you're still worried about her, you might as well worry about yourself first."

The little maid glanced at the queen and then spoke with a gloating tone.

"Jianqiu belongs to me. How dare they take Jianqiu away without permission?"

The queen slammed the table angrily and said to the little maid in front of her with cold eyes.

"My Queen, what qualifications do you have to call me Queen now? You are just a commoner. Maybe in a few days, you will become a criminal. Why are you putting on such airs like a queen?"

The little maid felt a chill in her heart when she saw the queen's gaze, but she ridiculed the queen rudely and then left without looking back.

"emperor."

"Did you ask anything?"

The emperor looked at Su Peisheng and spoke.

"This Jianqiu is a stubborn person. We've exhausted all the criminal laws of the Ministry of Punishment, but she hasn't confessed anything. Moreover..."

Su Peisheng looked at the emperor hesitantly and spoke.

"And what?"

The emperor looked at Su Peisheng impatiently and asked.

"And Jianqiu died of the poison while being tortured."

Su Peisheng spoke cautiously.

"In that case, find out for me what poison she was poisoned with and where it came from!"

"I want you to investigate all the dirty things hidden in this harem."

The emperor will never tolerate anyone threatening his life, even if that person is the empress dowager.

He must use this incident to purge the entire harem.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Su Peisheng quickly agreed, fortunately the emperor did not punish him for it.

"If this fails again, you know the consequences."

The emperor looked at Su Peisheng and spoke in a cold tone.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"I will definitely get to the bottom of all this dirty stuff."

Su Peisheng quickly spoke up to make the promise.

Fu Cha Zhixi finally woke up amid everyone's worries, and the first person she saw was Ling Rong.

When Lingrong realized that her sister had woken up, tears flowed uncontrollably.

"Someone, my sister is awake!"

"Call the doctor quickly!"

An Lingrong grabbed her sister's hand and at the same time gave loud instructions to the outside.

"Lingrong, you look haggard. You must have been worried sick during this period."

Seeing this, Fu Cha Zhixi smiled faintly and looked at Ling Rong and spoke.

"As long as my sister is safe, Lingrong can do anything."

"Sister, you scared Lingrong this time. You can't do that again in the future."

An Lingrong gently touched her sister's face, her eyes full of worry.

"Don't worry, it won't happen again in the future. This time it was because the situation was too urgent, so I did this."

Fu Cha Zhixi looked at An Lingrong and began to explain.

"Greetings to the Imperial Concubine, may the Imperial Concubine be blessed with good health and good health."

Su Peisheng walked quickly into the hall and bowed to Fu Cha Zhixi.

"Father-in-law, get up quickly."

Fu Cha Zhixi waved at Su Peisheng and said.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor was overjoyed to hear that you've woken up. Unfortunately, he has some state affairs to attend to right now, so he can't come to see you for the time being. However, he has instructed me to bring you his decree."

After Su Peisheng finished speaking, he unfolded the imperial edict in his hand and spoke to Fu Cha Zhixi.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor has said that you are not feeling well, so you don't have to get out of bed."

"Yes, thank you Your Majesty."

Upon hearing this, Fu Cha Zhixi naturally would not insist on getting out of bed and bowing to receive the order. After all, she was seriously injured this time, so it would be better if she could go through less trouble.

"By the providence of Heaven, the Emperor proclaims: I believe that the universe is designed for its destiny; that the harmony of yin and yang nourishes all things; that the family and the state are of the same substance; that harmony between husband and wife brings peace to the nation. My harem is rich with virtuous women, among whom is Lady Fucha, of upright character and prudent conduct. Since entering the Imperial Court, she has strictly adhered to the rules of the inner chamber, been gentle and respectful, and virtuous in her conduct. Her virtue, bearing, words, and achievements have all gratified my will, and she has long earned the trust of the people. Now, with the ancestral temple and the state as my highest priority, I hereby declare to Heaven and Earth, the ancestral temple, and the state, that Lady Fucha shall be empress, the rightful seat of the Central Consort. I hope that you will lead the six concubines, serve as a model for the nation, and assist me in governing, so that the imperial family will enjoy eternal peace. I command all the concubines in the harem to follow her example and join in this grand undertaking. I announce this to the whole nation, so that all may know."

This imperial edict shocked everyone present, including Fu Cha Zhixi himself.

She knew that her sacrifice to save the emperor would make him love her more and her position would definitely move up, but she didn't expect that the emperor would make up his mind so quickly and enthrone her as queen.

Although her previous plans were all for herself to be crowned queen, ideas are ideas and reality is reality.

When it really came true, she still had an indescribable feeling.

She originally thought that the emperor would confer upon her the title of Imperial Noble Consort, and after suppressing the Fucha clan, he would confer upon her the title of Queen, or would allow her to remain in the position of Imperial Noble Consort for the rest of her life.

I didn't expect that the emperor would be so decisive in issuing the imperial decree to confer the title of empress.

You must know that once this imperial edict is issued, she will be the queen in full and proper form.

Fu Cha Zhixi stood up with great emotion and took the imperial edict, but was stopped by Su Peisheng.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor has told you not to perform the formal ceremony, so as not to affect the recovery of your wounds."

"Moreover, the emperor had actually already written this imperial edict before this banquet."

Su Peisheng then lowered his voice and whispered something to Fu Cha Zhixi.

"Thank you, father-in-law."

After hearing these words, Fu Cha Zhixi had an indescribable feeling, and was glad that he had made the right move.

If it weren't for this rescue, the emperor might not have let this imperial edict see the light of day. After all, it had been written a long time ago, but had never been taken out. It can be seen that the emperor wanted to be the queen, but he had some concerns, so he sealed the written imperial edict.

That night, the emperor went to Chengqian Palace to visit Fucha Zhixi, and at the same time announced again that he would make Fucha Zhixi the queen.

"Your Majesty, I never thought that one day I would become your legitimate wife. I am even worried that I am dreaming. Once I wake up, everything will be gone."

Fu Cha Zhixi half leaned in the emperor's arms, tears flowing uncontrollably, and her voice was full of attachment.

"How could that be? I have always regarded you as my wife. Now that the time is right, I naturally want to give you the status you deserve right away."

The emperor patted Fucha Zhixi on the back and spoke softly.

Sure enough, he knew that what Xier cared about was not the position of queen, but his friendship.
