you forced your ex-husband

Ai Qingqing's appointment as a concubine caused a thousand waves of waves inside and outside the palace.

After all, there is almost no precedent for a concubine to be conferred before entering the palace.

What's more, this honored concubine is still a man.

Chu Mei was still in the palace researching what title to give Sansan, when Concubine Yan Gui made a fuss.

Yan Miyun was a side concubine when she was in the palace, and Chu Mei became a noble concubine after she ascended the throne.

In contrast, the official wife Shangshuqianjin is the queen.

There was originally a queen and a noble concubine in the harem, and the ministers looked at the shabbiness, so they changed their ways to send many beauties.

Chu Mei did not refuse, and would consider how many to accept.

He has an unstable foundation in the court, so he treats ministers more politely and will not easily refute the opponent's face.

After these beauties filled the harem, their status was very low, and they were not very favored.

The domineering concubine Yan Gui could barely bear it.

Now, Chu Mei wants to accept a male concubine, and confers her the title of concubine before entering the palace, this is obviously a sincere and loving treatment!

This made Concubine Yan very unbearable.

The maid next to Concubine Yan was also muttering: "The emperor has never been close to women, but he cares so much about a man, could it be... a broken sleeve?"

Although Concubine Yan Gui was well-versed in human affairs, she was a lady of every family, so she didn't know much about it, so she asked doubtfully, "What is 'broken sleeve'?"

The maid faltered and said, "It's a man who only likes men but not women."

What the court lady said seemed to be a tongue twister, Concubine Yan took a few turns in her head before realizing it, and said angrily: "I don't care what he cuts off his sleeves! A man who dares to seduce the emperor, I will let him 'cut his roots'! "

Concubine Yan ran angrily to the imperial study to see the emperor.

Chu Mei didn't like Concubine Yan, but was afraid of the power of the Yan family, so she always indulged Concubine Yan.

The people below are very good at winking, knowing that Yan Guifei can walk sideways in the harem, they dare not seriously stop her.Thus, Concubine Yan Gui successfully broke into the imperial study.

Seeing Concubine Yan Gui barging in aggressively, Chu Mei thought: The people of the Yan family are domineering and arrogant.

However, Chu Mei looked at Concubine Yan's appearance very dotingly: "Yun'er, who made you angry?"

——This simple sentence, like water, washed away seven or eight points of Concubine Yan's anger.

Concubine Yan's anger faded away, revealing a coquettish look, she only said: "Your Majesty, I will not allow you to accept a man as your concubine!"

Chu Mei snorted coldly: You won't allow it?What are you?

Chu Mei smiled: "What nonsense are you talking about? In the past, you didn't get angry when you hired noble girls and beautiful women, but now you get jealous when you accept a man from a humble background?"

Concubine Yan said, "I'll just accept it. Why did you become a concubine as soon as you came up?"

"What about being a concubine?" Chu Mei said, "Anyway, I can't surpass you as a noble concubine."

Concubine Yan is still dissatisfied: "I was a side concubine when I was in the hidden mansion, and now it is a matter of course to be a concubine. What is he? He is a 'concubine' from the beginning! It can be seen that the emperor loves him even more."

Chu Mei then said: "Doesn't the imperial concubine want to give birth to my eldest son?"

Concubine Yan Gui was startled when she heard the words: "Your Majesty..."

Chu Mei said softly: "The girls next to you are all wealthy officials, what would you do if they gave birth to a child earlier than you? But this Ai Sheng is a man, he can't have children, and he comes from a humble background, so he can't affect you at all. status. Take good care of your body, and when you get well, I won't want him anymore."

It turned out that Concubine Yan Gui was diagnosed with infertility and was recuperating.

The imperial physician said that Concubine Yan cannot sleep while she is recuperating.

Even though she can't sleep with her, Chu Mei still often stays in the imperial concubine's palace.

In addition, it was a scandal that the noble concubine suffered from infertility, neither Chu Mei nor Yan Guifei told outsiders about it.

Moreover, Chu Mei urged Concubine Yan not to tell even her natal family, so as not to reveal the secret.

Concubine Yan Gui was very moved by Chu Mei's painstaking efforts to conceal the matter of infertility for Concubine Yan.

Concubine Yan thought that she was infertile, and Chu Mei, as the emperor, still protected herself like that, she was moved and felt guilty.

She also heard from Chu Mei that this man was brought in just for fun, and there was no need to get angry.

However, Concubine Yan was still not very comfortable: "So, will the emperor favor a man?"

Chu Mei raised her eyebrows: "A man can't get pregnant, isn't that better than pampering a woman?"

"That being said..." Yan Guifei swallowed, and said, "But he is a man after all, men and women are different. If he is placed in the harem, who knows if he will mess up the palace?"

Chu Mei was even more displeased with Concubine Yan.

Chu Mei's smile became more and more gentle: "What nonsense are you talking about? Your brother is also a man, didn't he behave the same when he was in the harem?"

"Don't say that in front of my brother!" Yan Guifei smiled, "My brother hates people calling him 'mother' the most."

Chu Mei smiled and said nothing.

Concubine Yan stopped laughing again, and said sternly: "Besides, what is that Ai? How can he be compared with my brother!"

Chu Mei still smiled faintly: "Then what do you think?"

Concubine Yan Gui said: "Since he is a broken sleeve, let him have his roots cut off. Clean him up. Then I can rest assured."

According to Concubine Yan's intention, Ai Qingqing was to be eunuched.

Hearing this, Chu Mei's hand holding the back of the chair felt tight, almost crushing the yellow pear wood.

Chu Mei still smiled lightly, and after thinking for a while, said: "According to what I know, Ai Sheng and your brother have a little friendship."

"What kind of friendship?" Yan Guifei was greatly surprised.

"Ai Sheng once went with Prince Yu to go hunting in autumn. During that time, he met your brother and seemed to be friends with him. I have to save face." Chu Mei said, "Why don't you write a letter to Zen Palace to ask your brother's thoughts. If he agrees to allow Ai Sheng to cleanse himself, I will agree."

"Okay." Concubine Yan Gui did not doubt that he was there, "I'll go ask my brother right now."

Chu Mei had long disliked Concubine Yan Gui, but she could not take action to teach Concubine Yan Gui.

After much deliberation, Yan Bowan is the only one who can teach Concubine Yan a lesson now.

I don't know what Yan Bowan's expression will be when he sees Concubine Yan's letter.

Speaking of which, Yan Bowan should almost know that I want to accept Ai Qingqing as my concubine!

It's just that the Zen Palace is not close to the capital, and it takes more than half a month to go back and forth.

When Yan Bowan came back after learning about the situation, the marriage was already over.

Even if Yan Bowan is domineering again, can he still snatch the imperial concubine by force as the empress dowager?

But to be honest, Chu Mei was also afraid of "long nights and many dreams".

Even if you are not afraid of Yan Bowan, you are afraid of Concubine Yan.

Concubine Yan was about to wash Ai Qingqing's body in a jerk, but she didn't know what else she would do.

There was also the empress, who looked dignified and virtuous, but she was still calculating - this could not be hidden from Chu Mei's eyes.

When it comes to the rank of green tea and white lotus, the empress is a younger brother in front of Chu Mei.

Therefore, Chu Mei decided to make a quick decision and sneak into Chencang.

After comforting Concubine Yan, Chu Mei summoned the eunuch and ordered: "Send a sedan chair to Yuwang's residence and bring Ai Qingqing into the palace."

The eunuch was puzzled: "The ceremony of conferring the concubine has not been done yet, what does His Majesty mean...?"

"Send it to the palace first." Chu Mei didn't explain much.

The eunuch understood now: the new emperor must be in a hurry, and he can't wait for the canonization ceremony, so he will bring people in today.

Chu Mei was really thinking about bringing Sansan to the palace first.

All canonization ceremonies are false, and Zhou Gong's ceremonies are justified.

Taking advantage of Yan Bowan's silence, he took Sansan first and raised her in the harem, so that Chu Mei could feel at ease.

Because of Chu Mei's extraordinary attitude towards "Ai Qingqing", Sansan has also become the number one topic figure in the capital's recent list.

However, Sansan himself is not so sure because he is not allowed to go out.

After the concubine's imperial decree came down, according to the regulations, three or three half-steps couldn't get out of the door, so she could only "wait for marriage" wholeheartedly.

Sansan inevitably felt bored, so Lord Yu came to chat and play games with him when he was free.

Sansan looked at Prince Yu, the time-traveler, and thought of Chu Mei, the time-traveler, and suddenly asked Prince Yu, "Did anything special happen around Brother Wan when we crossed over here?"

Prince Yu said, "How do I know that?"

However, Lord Yu still called people to inquire.

The news that came back from the inquiry turned out to be there.

"The day we crossed over," said Prince Yu, "just happened to be the death anniversary of Grandpa Yan Bowan."

Sansan was greatly surprised when she heard this: "Is it such a coincidence?"

Lord Yu thought for a while, and then said: "What kind of coincidence is this? Every day is a death taboo for one person."

"..." Sansan was speechless.

But Sansan still felt strange.

When Yan Bowan's mother died, Chu Meichuan came over.

When Yan Bowan's grandfather died, Ayu passed through.

Ah, when did Liang Qingli wear it?

Sansan remembered that Liang Qingli once said that she had been here for ten years.

Sansan asked again, "What about ten years ago? Was there a funeral at my brother's house ten years ago?"

Lord Yu thought Sansan's question was very strange, but he still sent someone to inquire.

However, before the news of the inquiry came, the chief eunuch of the inner palace ushered in.

The eunuch has a high position and authority, so he should greet him well.So Prince Yu left Sansan behind and went to receive the eunuch in person.

Although the eunuch was very shameless, he also knew how to show the prince face. He greeted the prince respectfully and exchanged greetings before explaining the purpose of his visit: "The emperor ordered Ai Qingqing to enter the palace. The sedan chair is ready, please invite Ai Qingqing to enter the palace." Qingqing will see you immediately."

Lord Yu was surprised when he heard the words: "Why so suddenly?"

The eunuch smiled but said: "How does this slave know? But the emperor ordered, please obey."

"That's natural." Lord Yu nodded and ordered someone to call Sansan.

Hearing the summons, Sansan suddenly felt a little nervous: Are you here?Are you coming?

This is similar to what is recorded in the history books, Ai Qingqing was sent to the palace before being formally accepted as a concubine.

Also on the way to the palace, Yan Bowan snatched the marriage.

However, Sansan was still very uneasy: Didn't the history books say that Yan Bowan was in the Zen Palace at that time?

Now that Yan Bowan is far away in the Zen Palace, can he make it in time to snatch the marriage?

Sansan had to admit that she was looking forward to Yan Bowan's success in snatching the marriage.

He even said that if Yan Bowan hadn't come to snatch the marriage, Sansan would be very sad.

This kind of sadness, of course, has the frustration of mission failure, but more importantly...

Sansan really doesn't want to marry anyone other than Yan Bowan.

Prince Yu sent Sansan to the door in person, and seeing Sansan's expression turned pale, he asked, "Are you afraid?"

Sansan took a deep breath, forced a smile and said, "It's useless to be afraid."

Lord Yu also smiled: "I have a very good 'Chrysanthemum Protector' here..."

"..." Sansan waved his hand, "No need, Da Nei should have it too."

"Then what's the difference?" Lord Yu said, "You left from my mansion, and my palace is your 'natal home'. It's strange that you don't bring anything with you when you go out from your 'natal home'?"

"It's strange to go out from the 'maiden's house' with the 'Hu Jubao'..." Sansan protested in a low voice.

"Take it, it's my heart." Prince Yu enthusiastically stuffed the "Chrysanthemum Treasure" into Sansan's pocket.

During the conversation, the two had already arrived outside the side door.

A plain sedan chair was parked outside the side door, with few decorations and a gray color, it was hard to think that it was a royal thing.

It may be because the national funeral has not yet passed, or it may be that it is afraid of attracting the attention of passers-by. This sedan chair has a sense of over-simplification.

Prince Yu has already fully played the role of "mother's family", and couldn't help complaining to the eunuch: "Just a plain sedan chair goes out through the side door, and it is quietly carried into the palace through the side door? How can this be the same as stealing people?" like?"

The eunuch was also a little embarrassed, but didn't answer.

The little eunuch next to him said: "Our master is the first eunuch in the palace, the most trusted official of the emperor, and always serves the emperor by his side. The emperor ordered the master to personally pick up the nobleman into the palace. favor."

It's Lord Yu's turn to be a little embarrassed.

The eunuch puffed out his chest, and said with a smile, "This time, it's just a meeting in the palace. The Concubine Conferment Ceremony is already in full swing, and it must be very beautiful. Don't worry!"

After finishing speaking, the chief eunuch made a gesture, asking Sansan to get on the sedan chair: "My lord, please."

Sansan looked at the expressions on everyone's faces, and felt a sense of embarrassment that "the eldest girl is being escorted onto the sedan chair".

The sedan chair was lifted and sent to the palace.
