Su Tong just sat on the mountain and watched the two tigers fight to the death, and gave Zhen Huan some help from time to time. This made the Queen Mother very angry, and she directly called her son to Shoukang Palace.

“Emperor, I know you don’t like Concubine Rou, but she is your cousin after all. She has served me peacefully over the years without fighting for me.

I also hope that you can give me some face, and after Concubine Zhen gives birth to a child, give the child to Concubine Rou, so that she will have someone to rely on for the rest of her life."

Su Tong sighed in a pretentious manner, "Forget it, everything is as the Queen Mother wishes."

The Queen Mother's expression softened a little. Although this son was sometimes disobedient, he was still very filial.

Although Su Tong will not refute the Queen Mother's words outwardly, he will create some trouble behind the scenes, such as revealing this matter to Zhen Huan. As for how the other party wants to solve this problem, it depends on her.

Of course, Zhen Huan would not watch her child being taken away. Children belong to their mothers, so in order to keep the child, Zhen Huan could only find ways to climb to the position of the mistress of the palace.

But the positions above are already full. Even if he wins a little prince, he probably won't be able to sit on the main seat of a palace. He can only pull one of the people above down.

The first one to suffer misfortune was Concubine Cao. Although she gave birth to a son and a daughter, she was a person of evil intentions and always wanted to climb higher. Especially when she saw that the emperor attached so much importance to the two legitimate princes who were with the queen, she secretly instigated the other party and attempted to take action against the two legitimate princes.

Concubine Cao was not a fool. She could not afford the consequences of attacking the Queen, so she set her sights on Concubine Duan and Concubine Hua. Because Concubine Cao knew that if she could bring one of them down, she might have a chance to climb to a high position.

Yes, this time the two of them thought of the same thing. Concubine Duan had always been in poor health, and after giving birth to a little prince, she was still sick. The palace was often filled with the smell of medicine.

Concubine Duan kept taking medicine, but found that her health was getting worse and worse, and eventually she died. At first, she thought someone had tampered with the medicine, but it was discovered that the ingredients were fine, so she could only attribute it to Concubine Duan's bad luck.

Since there was no abortion pill incident that night, the relationship between Concubine Duan and Concubine Hua was still quite good. After Concubine Duan passed away, the two children were given to Concubine Hua to raise.

Now that a concubine position has become vacant, all the concubines are ready to try, eyeing the position of the master of the palace covetously.

The first person Concubine Cao dealt with was Concubine Xin, who also had a son and a daughter with her. The key point was that she was the first to be promoted to concubine and was the most likely to be conferred the title of consort.

However, Xinpin has a fatal flaw, which is that she loves to gossip. Concubine Duan had just passed away, and they were sisters in the harem, so it would have been fine if Xinpin did not express her condolences, she even said that she was unlucky.

These words were also known by Concubine Hua, who immediately sentenced Concubine Xin to death. If it were not for the fact that she had given birth to a son and a daughter for the Emperor, she would have probably been punished with a hundred lashes.

After dealing with Concubine Xin, the remaining concubines were easy to deal with. Although they had sons and daughters, they did not get involved in the struggles within the palace, nor did they care much about their positions. Concubine Cao simply made their children sick, which instantly made them busy and overwhelmed.

After watching the big drama, Su Tong took the medicine cap to Concubine Cao. It has been a life for a life since ancient times. Concubine Duan has never done anything to let Concubine Cao down. The other party actually poisoned a high-ranking concubine for the so-called position. Her heart is really cruel.

Su Tong let the other party end her life on her own. With such a mother around, the two children would probably not learn well, so he had to solve this headache as soon as possible.

Naturally, Concubine Cao was unwilling to die. She still had to see her two children get married and have children, so she begged the emperor desperately, hoping that he would spare her.

Su Tong was already giving the other party face by letting them solve the problem on their own. He did not disclose the other party's methods mainly for the sake of his two children. He did not want his offspring to kill each other.

Concubine Cao finally died unwillingly, claiming to the public that she was ill. As for the two children...

Su Tong still liked Princess Wen Yi very much, so he gave the child directly to the Mongolian noble lady and also appointed her as a concubine.

Su Tong looked carefully and found out that Concubine Yu was named Concubine Yu. Although she only gave birth to a little prince, she had been very honest over the years and was also an elder in the mansion, so she deserved the title of concubine.

When Zhen Huan saw that the position of a concubine had become vacant, she was immediately tempted. She was the only concubine below the rank of concubine who was pregnant. Even if she gave birth to a little princess, she might be able to secure the position of the mistress of the palace with the help of the emperor's face.

Su Tong was also thinking about who should be given this position, Zhen Huan or An Lingrong, but before he could make a move, he was interrupted by an imperial edict from the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager directly appointed Concubine Rou as Concubine Rou, on the grounds that Concubine Rou had served the Empress Dowager meritorious service and even if she had no children, she was worthy of being the head of a palace.

Su Tong cursed many times in his heart before he suppressed his anger. Forget it, he just wanted to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between the two tigers. However, the Queen Mother was indeed an eyesore.

Su Tong had no mother-son relationship with the Queen Mother. The two of them were just using each other. If Su Tong was unhappy, even if he couldn't ask the Queen Mother for revenge, he could always ask others for revenge, such as the Fourteenth Prince. He was a prince before, but now he was demoted to a prince of a county under an excuse. Even his nephew was exiled to a remote frontier.

After receiving the imperial edict, the Fourteenth Concubine came to the Empress Dowager crying for help, but what could the Empress Dowager do?

She also knew that the Fourth Prince was really angry and felt that she had interfered in the harem, but if she did not issue an edict in advance, then Concubine Rou would have no hope for the rest of her life.

The only thing the Queen Mother can do now is to stay in her own palace obediently, wait for Su Tong to vent his anger, and then find a way to make peace with him.

Su Tong was reluctant to let his daughter go to marry a foreign prince. Anyway, his son had two more tribes, and if they didn't obey, he would just attack them. Even if he wanted his daughter to marry a Mongolian prince, he would choose some young men and let them live in the capital.

There are quite a few imperial concubines in the harem who include imperial daughters. After seeing what the emperor did, many of them breathed a sigh of relief. Even if the prince consort could leave the capital, the princess could stay in the princess's mansion and did not have to go to remote Mongolia. This was a blessing in disguise.

Zhen Huan gave birth to a little princess, but it was a little princess. Although Concubine Rou was a little disappointed, she still cheered up. Having a child was like having hope. She wanted to raise the child on her own lap, but the emperor moved the child directly to Sui Yuxuan.

Thinking that three concubines would not be able to live in a place as small as Sui Yuxuan, Shen Meiyu was transferred to the palace where Rou Ze had lived before, so that she could serve the empress dowager instead of Roupin.

Shen Meizhuang has not experienced the false pregnancy yet, so she has more affection for the emperor. She was suddenly transferred to a remote palace. Although she was serving the empress dowager, it also meant falling out of favor, and she felt quite disappointed.
