The princess is so powerful that the fish pond is full of people
Chapter 14: Half Emperor and Half Ministers
Xiang Huayue sat on the couch, leisurely eating grapes, watching her mother embroidering a patchwork quilt for her unborn daughter, feeling warm and happy.
Li Jin came in from outside the hall at this time and stood in front of Xiang Huayue respectfully.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Fu has given birth to a little princess. The Emperor has already sent her to be raised by Concubine De."
After hearing Li Jin's words, Xiang Huayue fell into a brief contemplation.
Fu Jieyu gave birth a month earlier than her, and according to the date, she was also born at full term.
"The Queen has fallen, but she has taken advantage of the situation. How is Concubine Fu now?"
Li Jin glanced at the Imperial Concubine's belly, thinking of what had just happened in the Cining Palace. After hesitating for a moment, he picked out the key points and said:
"The imperial physician said that Concubine Fu might not survive. She had a high fever for almost a month during her pregnancy, but she managed to get through it. Now she's a bit sluggish and won't even respond when her name is called. Only when the Emperor is around can she regain some clarity of mind."
They were all women who had given birth to children, and Princess Gaoyang felt very anxious when she heard this.
After ten months of hardship and overcoming numerous dangers to give birth to a child, you turn around and give the child away to someone else, and you become a fool.
The fool who just gave birth will surely be despised by the emperor. How will she survive in this deep palace then?
Princess Gaoyang looked at her daughter with some concern. After seeing that her daughter looked normal and was eating grapes with great interest, she couldn't help but wonder if she was too kind-hearted.
"Will the Queen Mother be happy if the princess is given to Concubine De?"
The current Empress Dowager was born in a small family with a confused mind. If she had not had some distant relatives with the Prime Minister's Mansion, based on the things she had done, I'm afraid the Emperor would have given her a dose of medicine and sent her to death.
"Your Highness really understands the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager and the Emperor had a huge argument in front of Concubine Fu, which frightened Concubine Fu so much that she had a hemorrhage. If the imperial physician hadn't been waiting outside, I'm afraid Concubine Fu would have died..."
Xiang Huayue sneered when he heard this.
"She eats vegetarian food and chants Buddhist scriptures every day, but I haven't seen her accumulate much merit. I'm afraid she only chants the mantra for rebirth every day."
Princess Gaoyang has been dissatisfied with the empress dowager for a long time. When the late emperor was alive, the empress dowager was just one of the concubines in the harem.
Once when they met in the imperial garden, she didn't recognize me and was ridiculed by the concubines. I didn't say anything, but she still held a grudge against me.
From then on, every time she entered the palace, she would bring it up again.
Such a narrow-minded woman became the most noble woman in Daxia. She was simply the biggest scourge in Daxia in the past hundred years.
"The Queen Mother has raised Concubine Fu for so long, and even had a rift with the Queen because of her. How could she be willing to let the princess be taken away to be raised by Concubine De? She is still waiting for the princess to grow up and contribute to the Third Prince's career. Wait a minute, this matter is not over yet."
Xiang Huayue lowered her head to look at her belly, smiled, and spoke with a firm tone.
After dealing with the Empress Dowager for so many years, she already knows herself as well as her enemy. This old woman who is sitting in a well and looking at the sky from afar will die when the Emperor takes down the Prime Minister's party.
The emperor has already firmly established his throne, and the ambitions of the prime minister's office are growing. I think that day is not far away.
Xiang Huayue said to Li Jin and Chun Chan with deep eyes:
"Concubine Fu has given birth safely. The Queen Mother and the Empress will soon reconcile and continue to maintain a superficial harmony. My due date is approaching. Once these two snakes and rats collude, they will definitely take advantage of the opportunity to attack. I just don't know which one of them the Prime Minister will be able to protect when the truth comes out."
Li Jin and Chun Chan received the order and left Yiku Palace.
They were all outstanding individuals who had fought their way out of the Xiang family's iron-blooded military camp. As soon as they left the camp, they were sent to Xiang Huayue. Their lifelong duty from then on was to protect Xiang Huayue's safety.
Apart from them, everyone in the Yikun Palace, even the old palace maid who slept at night, came from the Xiang family's military camp.
The ancestor of the Xiang family worked together with Emperor Taizu of Xia to pacify the four directions and unify the world.
Emperor Taizu of Xia was benevolent and righteous. He personally conferred the title of Duke Dingguo on the Xiang family, and the title was hereditary. Even though the descendants of the Xiang family declined, they were still able to keep the Xiang family at the center of power, with an extraordinary status and endless wealth.
In the first few years after Daxia was established, neighboring countries often invaded, and small border countries also wanted to get a piece of the pie. There were great troubles within and powerful enemies outside.
Emperor Taizu of Xia could only stay in the capital, and Duke Dingguo led 70,000 Xiang family troops to resist an unknown number of foreign enemies.
Fortunately, the Xiang family army was extremely brave. Although they were outnumbered by a hundred men and all of them died on the battlefield, they finally pushed the enemy back 300 meters and kept the border peaceful.
Upon hearing this, Taizu said bluntly: As long as Daxia is there, the Xiang family is there!
The throne has changed, and since the death of Emperor Taizu Xia, the Xiang family has changed several heads of the family. It's not that no emperor has ever thought of taking the military power of the Xiang family, but the Xiang family has a very high status in the hearts of the people.
The saying even spread among the people: The Xiang family is here! Daxia is here!
Therefore, for more than a hundred years under the rule of Daxia, the world has been peaceful and prosperous.
Princess Gaoyang just watched silently throughout the whole process. She understood that the Xiang family never produced weak people, and the former dynasty and the harem had always complemented each other. She only needed to pave a way out for her daughter in advance.
Ever since Princess Gaoyang came, Liang Yue always felt that the Xiang family was not that simple, and she began to look through the Xiang family's data again.
You won’t know if you don’t read it, but you will be shocked if you read it.
The Xiang family lives at the foot of the imperial city, and everything they do under their scumbag father's nose is enough to punish the entire family.
Who understands? On the surface, I am just a reckless man with only a few useless children in my family. It is only thanks to the emperor's grace that the family's glory has been able to continue to this day.
In fact, half of the court belongs to the emperor and half to the ministers. Half of what the emperor has belongs to the ministers.
It took Liang Yue seven days to finish reading the Xiang family's information. The more she read, the more shocked and excited she became. There is no need to say anything else.
She has begun to doubt whether her scumbag father is the real master of this country.
I originally wanted to be a hard-working second-generation, but I didn't expect to get a script that was against the sky.
Liang Yue recalled the previous system data showing that the beautiful mother had a capricious and domineering personality and loved to beat and scold the palace maids.
Although my mother is just a woman, the power of the Xiang family will not be told to her.
But the Yikun Palace is full of people from the Xiang family, so my mother shouldn't really hit anyone, right?
Liang Yue asked the system to retrieve his mother's information again, and only after reading it did he understand.
It is true that he was arrogant and domineering, and it is also true that he loved beating and scolding the palace maids.
She even beat the concubines in the harem, so why would she care about the palace maids?
Among them, Dongmei, the queen's personal maid, suffered the most. If she fell into the hands of the beautiful mother, she would be skinned alive if not killed.
The system's data is so advanced that it is accompanied by pictures.
Liang Yue scrolled down and saw Dongmei's buttocks, which were beaten to a bloody pulp. Next to it was a note saying that the palace maid Dongmei did not perform the proper salute to Concubine Chen, and was punished with twenty strokes of the cane.
Although he did not die, his wounds healed, and his fear of the next punishment became even deeper.
Liang Yue has found new fun.
She asked the system to retrieve all the records of every time her mother punished someone, and it must be accompanied by illustrations.
Five out of ten times, it was the palace maids around the Queen, one was around the Queen Mother, and the rest were shared by the concubines in various palaces.
