My husband is pure and has few desires, but I gave birth to three children in a row

King Kang and his princes didn't know that the incident they had caused had caused the impression of their close ministers on them to plummet to the lowest point.

Seeing that the emperor remained silent, I thought that he was persuaded, but was just embarrassed.

After thinking about it, they decided that it was time to show their brotherhood.

They had to protect the Sixth Brother in front of the Emperor, letting him see that they were still very friendly and respectful to him, and taking the opportunity to win the Emperor's favor.

News came from the Imperial Hospital that the poison that Old Six was infected with was unprecedented and very strange. Now the Imperial Hospital is helpless.

The sixth one is probably useless.

At this time, brothers should show their care and concern for him.

Not only will it make my father have a better impression of me.

Even if it's Lao Liu, he has to appreciate my kindness, right?

The princes were truly of one mind, and they all thought of this at the same time.

King Kang was about to take a step forward.

Someone else stood up before him and argued, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin has supervised your army for over a year and has not made any mistakes. Not to mention, His Royal Highness went after the Western Rong King because he was afraid that the elite Western Rong troops would escape back and stage a comeback. The battlefield is ever-changing, and His Royal Highness's actions at that time were the most appropriate! As for being lured into Qishan by the Western Rong King, who could have predicted that?"

"What's more, His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin is not greedy for merit and reckless. If His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin had not led his elite troops to surround the defeated King of Xirong and his army in Qishan, waiting for reinforcements, if the King of Xirong had been allowed to return to Xirong, he would have made a comeback one day, and another fierce battle would have continued for years."

"I believe that His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin is not only faultless, but has made great contributions!"

"Furthermore, His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin is a member of a royal family. He is willing to lead the troops, suffer injury for his country, and protect the people of the Dashun Dynasty! What a courage and broad-minded character! Now that the Prince of Jin has not recovered from his injuries and the poison he has been poisoned by in order to contain the King of Xirong, even if you cannot sincerely admire His Royal Highness the Prince of Jin, you should not take advantage of His Royal Highness the time he is still recuperating in his mansion to attack him in the court, right?"

"To make the soldiers fighting on the front lines bleed and cry is such a shameless and despicable act!"

"How are you any different from me? I am ashamed to be associated with you!"

These words were spoken with great force.

Many younger officials also expressed their shared hatred for the enemy, saying, "We are ashamed to be associated with you!"

For a moment, the people around those officials who had just been passionately listing the faults of King Jin in the hall took a few steps back.

No, King Kang looked depressed.

Who is this person speaking? These are all my words!

The emperor's expression improved a little at this moment: "Well said! We can't let the King of Jin and all the soldiers who fought so hard shed blood and tears——"

The emperor's words showed his attitude.

Even though those who opposed it wanted to make a few more arguments, the unfriendly looks from the people around them made them dare not speak again.

After this incident, the subsequent rewarding of merits became particularly smooth.

No one dared to cause trouble again.

After the morning court was over, several of the emperor's trusted ministers had to wait in the duty room for the emperor to summon them.

The adults finally had some free time and started talking about what happened at the morning court: "Which department is the official who just spoke? He's quite courageous."

If Lu Zhenzhen was present and heard this, she would know that this person was probably arranged by Fu Zhiyi.

I'm afraid that even these words were written in advance by Fu Zhiyi.

After all, she mentioned this in the letter she wrote to Fu Zhiyi: We cannot let the soldiers fighting on the front line bleed and cry.

After the officials finished their questions, Grand Secretary Lan smiled sweetly, "That's exactly my useless young son."

Several adults exchanged glances, and someone asked, "No, Lord Lan, which one are you favoring?"

That one refers to the King of Jin.

No one quite believed it. After all, Minister Lan had always been His Majesty's confidant. So why would His Majesty defend Prince Jin at the court this morning?

Could it be that this old fox has some special information channels and wants to take sides in advance?

Minister Lan Da's face was filled with righteous indignation. "Please do not make irresponsible remarks. I am loyal only to Your Majesty! As for the words spoken by my useless young son, they were merely the result of a youthful impulse. I truly cannot tolerate his actions."

"As my son said, we can't let the soldiers fighting on the front lines bleed and cry! If they succeed today, it will chill not only the heart of King Jin, but also the hearts of all the soldiers!"

The gentlemen agreed with him, but in their hearts they cursed him: "I don't believe you! You cunning old fox, who knows what evil you are up to!"

Having said that, the Grand Secretary of Lanzhou has expressed his opinion, and to some extent, that is the attitude of His Majesty.

Naturally, no one will say anything.

But I have my own thoughts.

In the following days, there was news of rewards every day, and the capital was bustling with joy.

Every family went crazy over the wedding banquets for promotions, and all the chefs in the restaurants in the capital were hired away.

The Prince of Jin was already a prince and there was no more title to be bestowed upon him, so his favor was extended to his children. The eldest son was made the Crown Prince of Jin, and the second son was also made a Prince of a County.

There was a reliable rumor coming out of the palace that the emperor was going to appoint a queen.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs has been instructed to prepare for the ceremony of enthroning the queen.

After the emperor's original queen died, he had not appointed another queen for many years.

Now that this news has spread, everyone quickly realized that although establishing a queen is important, what is more important is probably to establish an heir, right?

Looking at this trend, everyone is speculating that Concubine Xiao is most likely to be made the new queen.

If this is the case, the status of Prince Jin is much higher than that of other princes.

Adding to that the reputation that Prince Jin holds in the court and among the people, he's practically the invisible crown prince, right?

After this explosive news, not many people paid attention to the subsequent negotiations between the imperial court and the Western Rong, in which the Western Rong were asked to use a certain amount of silver, horses, cattle, sheep, and cede land to redeem the Western Rong king and a group of captives.

It was not until a few years ago that the emperor's decree to confer the title of empress finally came down, conferring the title of empress on Concubine Xiao.

At the same time, there was an imperial decree appointing Prince Jin as the crown prince.

The ceremonies of enthroning the queen and enthroning the crown prince will both be held in March next year.

The two imperial edicts were like two thunderclaps, making the entire capital dizzy and unable to react for a while.

By the time I realized it, the imperial concubine in the palace and the Prince Jin's Mansion outside the palace were really popular.

The visiting cards received by the concierge every day are packed in baskets.

Everyone is rushing to make some connections.

I haven't had the heart to go there for years.

And on the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month, Fu Zhiyi returned to the capital quietly.
