An Lingrong's Rebirth: I will not offend others unless they offend me

"I understand that the snakes and bees at the palace banquet were all caused by me alone."

"I beg Your Majesty to give me half a day to make the final arrangements."

Concubine Qi knelt on the ground and begged humbly. She wanted to say a few words to the Third Prince.

"Sister Qi Fei, the Emperor has ordered that the Third Prince is studying in the Shangshufang, and no one is allowed to disturb him. I believe that only if Sister Qi Fei apologizes as soon as possible can the Third Prince be spared from suffering."

"I understand."

Concubine Qi's eyes were burning, and she walked out in a daze without even bowing.

The queen gave Jianqiu a wink, and she hurried forward to support the person.

"Empress Qi, you forgot to take your veil."

Seeing that Concubine Qi did not react, Jianqiu directly put the flag on her head.

He also ordered a strong and unfamiliar nanny to help Concubine Qi out of the house.

Li Jingyan walked slowly on the long street, recalling the life of the Third Prince from his birth to his growth into an adult.

Even if you feel reluctant, you still move forward without hesitation.

The palace banquet took place in the imperial garden, and the emperor issued a death order not to let it be spread outside.

But everyone in the palace felt uneasy after hearing the news, and the palace was unusually quiet today.

It was even quieter in the Yangxin Palace.

Xiao Xia Zi, who was resting with her eyes closed, was so frightened that her eyes widened when she learned that Concubine Qi was kneeling in front of the Yangxin Palace to ask to see the emperor.

"Dongzi, you stay in Yangxin Palace. I'll go to Shoukang Palace to find my master."

Concubine Qi, one of the four concubines, was kneeling in the Yangxin Palace. This was a big deal.

"Is the Empress Dowager feeling better today?"

The emperor, now in a sullen state, handed the empty medicine bowl in his hand to Sun Zhuxi.

"I am fine, but Your Majesty, please take good care of yourself."

The Queen Mother lying in bed had learned the sad news that three concubines had lost their dragon fetuses one after another.

"I'm not tired. Madam, Wanpin lost her child because of the musk on the sedan chair."

Both mother and son knew that Hua Fei had been given musk, so the emperor, feeling distressed, could only come and talk to the empress dowager.

"Your Majesty, Wanpin is still young and will have a child. You don't need to blame yourself. Blame me if you want to."

She asked Concubine Wan for the sedan chair from Concubine Hua, and it was she who asked Concubine Wan to come to Shoukang Palace to copy scriptures every day.

"Empress Mother, this has nothing to do with you. Before his travels, the Zen Master once said that I would have few children. I never thought it would come true."

"Your Majesty, that monk is trying to interfere in politics. How can we trust the words of such an impure person?"

"I heard that Concubine Shu's Sixth Prince is strong and handsome. If Your Majesty is free, please visit him often."

"Shu Fei is indeed very good at raising children."

When the emperor thought of Hongzhan, whose hands and feet were full of strength, his expression didn't look so ugly anymore.

"Your Majesty, both the imperial court and the harem need checks and balances. This situation is serious, and you only promoted Sui Yuxuan. Have you considered the consequences?"

"This son was indeed reckless. Thank you, Madam Queen, for reminding me."

He only thought about how to face Huan'er, but ignored the feelings of others.

"Then I will promote Concubine Hui, Concubine Fang Jia, and Concubine He to a higher rank, and Concubine Hui to the main hall of Chuxiu Palace. What do you think, Empress Dowager?"

"Let's also make some moves on the part of Noble Lady Ke, so as to encourage the people in the harem to have children for the royal family as soon as possible."

"I will obey the Empress Dowager. Please take good care of yourself. I will come to pay my respects tomorrow."

Su Peisheng saw the emperor leaving the door and hurried forward.

"Your Majesty, Concubine Qi has been kneeling in front of the Yangxin Palace, requesting an audience."

The emperor's heart sank, and he gave the order without even turning his head.

"Aunt Zhuxi, the imperial physician said that the Empress Dowager needs to rest and recuperate. There's no need to report such a trivial matter."

"I understand, Your Majesty, please rest assured."

The emperor's power is growing day by day, and he is no longer the little prince who used to hide behind the rockery and stare at his master eagerly.

Zhuxi didn't say a word after returning to the house.

The emperor, with sweat on his forehead, stared at the person kneeling in the hall with a sharp gaze.

"Concubine Qi, what do you want?"

"I lost my mind for a moment and committed the grave mistake of disrupting the palace banquet. I know my crime is unforgivable, and I beg Your Majesty to forgive me."

"Hongshi was completely unaware of this. I beg Your Majesty not to blame him."

While the emperor was stunned, Concubine Qi slammed her head against the pillar in the hall.

After a loud "bang", the man with blood gushing out fell limply to the ground.

"Su Peisheng, quickly call the imperial physician."

Zhang Wuwei stared at the bright yellow boots nervously and reported in a deep voice.

"Your Majesty, I am incompetent and beg for your punishment."

Concubine Qi was determined to die, and even if Hua Tuo were alive, he would be powerless to save her.

"Hongshi... my dear Hongshi..."

Concubine Qi's voice became lower and lower, and soon she dropped her hands.

The emperor, his heart in turmoil, recalled Li Jingyan's years of companionship and gave orders while suppressing his anger.

"Su Peisheng, order someone to clean up Concubine Qi."

"I will go to the prince's residence in person."

The emperor lost three children in one day, so he would always be more tolerant towards Hongshi, the only one he raised.

He personally told Hongshi about the evil deeds committed by Concubine Qi, which helped Concubine Qi to wake up.

Shangshufang

The old Hanlin, who was so angry that he was fuming, asked in a sad tone.

"Third Prince, may I ask where the saying 'Heaven moves with vigor; a gentleman should constantly strive for self-improvement' comes from?"

The Third Prince replied with confidence.

"I don't know. But I do know that 'Guanguanjujiu on the river island, a graceful lady, a gentleman's good match' is from the Book of Songs. Zhang Hanlin, would you like to discuss this with me?"

Then he looked at the elderly Zhang Hanlin with ill intentions.

"I don't mind your age."

Zhang Hanlin was so angry that his beard was shaking.

"The Third Prince is unruly and unruly. This old minister will go to the Emperor and resign."

Even if you can't afford to offend him, you can at least avoid him.

Seeing that the furious Zhang Hanlin was really about to leave, Hongshi took out Xiaoqing, whom he had brought with him, without hesitation.

"Zhang Hanlin, I know I was wrong, and I'll give you something to make amends."

The emperor who rushed over happened to see Hongshi, with a wicked grin, throwing a snake at the old Hanlin in a vicious manner.

The thought "This child must not be allowed to stay in the palace" arose in my mind.

He ordered someone to invite the imperial physician to examine the old Hanlin, and ignored Hongshi who was tied up like a dumpling from beginning to end.

Before lunch, the news from the Yangxin Palace shocked everyone.

Concubine Qi of Changchun Palace was vicious and openly plotted to murder the imperial heir. After the incident, she died by hitting her head against a pillar in the Yangxin Palace and was demoted to a commoner.

At the same time, the third prince Hongshi was adopted by Yunsi as his son, without giving any reason.

As soon as the Queen of Jingren Palace learned about this, she called Jianqiu forward.

"Take your men to Changchun Palace to sort out Concubine Qi's dowry and send it to Hongshi."

"Your Majesty, the Emperor..."

Jianqiu was in a dilemma. The emperor was so angry that he adopted the third prince away.

If the master stood up to help the Third Prince at this time, he would probably end up in trouble.

"You will do as I command."

She has been married to the emperor for many years and understands him well.

Even though he cruelly adopted the third prince away, others could not ignore Hongshi.

Especially the queen as the master of the central palace.
