My heart hurts when I mention the abolition

The eldest lady smiled and nodded, "Don't worry, it's all right now."

"That's good." Chen Yizhen nodded.

The eldest lady approached and said in a low voice: "Your uncle does not intend to participate in this palace banquet. The emperor has a grudge in his heart. Your uncle is afraid that you in the family and the palace will be involved."

He is the pillar of the Chen family's faction, and he was also the person who suppressed the capital at the time and often wandered around in front of the emperor, causing him displeasure. If he was ranked among the Chen family's faction, he must be the one who the emperor hates the most and wants to get rid of. .

Chen Yizhen sighed in his heart, but smiled on his face: "Uncle's legs and feet have not recovered yet, it is a good thing to rest at home more."

The old lady and the eldest lady nodded, "That's exactly the reason."

The few people chatted in low voices, asking about how the family is doing well, the elder cousin and younger brother are concentrating on their studies, the father has recently become obsessed with playing chess, and often invites new friends to go to the street to play chess together, Chen Yizhen is relieved ,By the way, I will explain my own affairs, there is nothing special, it is roughly the same as before.

The old lady and the others were most worried about the emperor's attitude towards her. When they heard that the emperor often came to accompany her for dinner, the three of them immediately breathed a sigh of relief, completely relieved.

The old lady couldn't help smiling: "Being able to come here often shows that the emperor has you in his heart."

Now that the emperor has the imperial power in his hands, there is no one in the harem who can force him to bend over. The emperor's coming to Zhongcui Palace is purely voluntary, willing, and willing. Therefore, based on this reasoning, the emperor should like to come here very much.

Chen Yizhen smiled, did not answer, looked around, and then asked about something that had been on his mind just now.

"Where's my cousin? Why didn't you come?"

She thought that all four women in the family would come, and she had prepared a gift for sister Lin, but she didn't expect that her cousin didn't come at all, did something happen?

The eldest lady was worried, but she shook her head, not wanting to make her worry, and said calmly: "Some time ago, she wrote to me, saying that the windows were not closed at night, and sister Lin had a fever. She thought she was taking care of sister Lin at home. family background, and the letter handed to her by her family has never been answered."

Thinking of the character of the Ningyuan Houfu, Chen Yizhen was a little worried, but then he thought, with her here, the Ningyuanhoufu should not dare to offend her, maybe it was really Sister Lin who was ill.

She turned around and went into the inner room. After a while, she came out with a box in her hand.

Handed it to the eldest lady, "Here, this is a gift for sister Lin. I planned to give it to her today, but who would have thought that my cousin would not come, so you can pass it on my behalf, auntie."

The eldest lady was also polite, and took it over with a smile, "Then I will thank you for sister Ning and sister Lin."

Chen Yizhen shook his head, "We are all a family, so there is no need to speak politely."

Several people stayed in Zhongcui Palace for a while. Seeing that it was getting late, they were led by Chen Yizhen to greet the ancestors and the Empress Dowager, and then they were ready to leave the palace.

The old ancestor met them in person, with a very good attitude, kind-hearted, amiable, although it was inevitable to alienate them, but Chen Yizhen was very grateful in his heart.

The Empress Dowager just... In short, she let them salute at the door, and sent them away without even entering the palace door.

Although Chen Yizhen had expected it in advance, he still couldn't help but get angry. What is this? If you are tired, you don't have to go in, just salute outside.

The empress dowager completely treats her family members as maidservants.

She sneered secretly, remembering this incident in her heart. Afterwards, she handed out blessings to the courtiers in the harem. She deliberately picked out the ones from Xia's family and rewarded them to Old Prince An's family. Old Prince An is far away from the emperor's family. It has been going downhill these years, but Mrs. Chen specially mentioned to her when she came to the palace to ask for Ann. The grandson of Mr. An's family has a good relationship with Brother Shi recently, and he has helped Brother Shi a lot in the open and in the dark. He wanted to give old prince an a face.

Originally he was hesitant about what to give, but just in time, the empress dowager vented her anger in front of her, and if she didn't reciprocate and went back, she really thought she was a mess.

Afterwards, the Xia family euphemistically brought this matter up to the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager was really furious, and immediately covered her chest and almost passed out.

She didn't expect that the queen whose family had completely collapsed would dare to challenge her. What qualifications does she have!

Immediately, I wanted to call the queen over and give him a hard lesson, but the maid went out, and when she came back, she hesitated to report back to her. People in the queen's palace said that the queen went to Ningshou Palace to copy Buddhist scriptures for the ancestors in the past two days, and came out early every day. Returning late, I couldn't catch her at all.

The empress dowager was dizzy with anger, and immediately rushed towards the Palace of Qinzheng.

She dare not break into Ningshou Palace, so she can only ask her own son to support her.

The emperor heard the ins and outs of the incident, and was very helpless. He immediately guessed that it must be the empress who made the empress angry. Otherwise, the empress has always been calm, so how could she have such an impulse to slap someone in the face.

Of course he couldn't listen to his mother's words and call the queen over, so he had to reprimand him, so he could only talk and promise a bunch of things, and finally sent the queen away.

In the evening, when they went to Zhongcui Palace and asked about this matter, Chen Yizhen couldn't wait to express the resentment in his heart.

At the end, she stood next to the emperor and wiped her tears with a mournful expression, "Your Majesty, those are the concubine's grandmother and mother, what did they do wrong, why did the queen mother humiliate her like this, you don't know, even though the grandmother didn't say anything at that time, But in the blink of an eye, he was staggering, almost unable to stand still, and the whole group of Yongchang Palace, the concubines felt that the whole face was being pressed/ravaged by the queen mother on the ground."

She was mourning, with her weak and boneless wrist resting in front of her eyes, her whole body was thin and pitiful, the emperor felt his heart melt when he saw her.

He embraced her with an apologetic expression, "The empress mother is straightforward..."

Chen Yizhen's crying suddenly became louder.

His voice was choked, and he sighed helplessly. He turned a corner and said, "I've made up my mind about this matter. Don't worry, I will definitely not let you be wronged."

The Chen family was allowed to enter the palace by him, and it was not the empress who made her own claim. In any case, they shouldn't get along with them because of old grievances with the Chen family. What's more, they are just a group of women in the backyard. It's not that they pushed it.

The emperor has a plan in mind.

But on the other hand, there was his queen mother over there, and he couldn't call the queen mother to reprimand him like he reprimanded the subordinates, so this matter really had to fall on the Xia family in the end.

So, during the New Year's Eve, the emperor issued an order to scold the Xia family, but he couldn't find any major faults. It was nothing more than eating, drinking, having fun, extravagance and waste, not seeking to make progress, but it was just an excuse for the emperor, and these were enough.

Anyway, the sudden decree this time made the Xia family scold. How could they provoke the ancestor? They were so frightened that they hurriedly sent people into the palace to inquire about the right and wrong. Cannon fodder for the queen mother and queen.

Well, what else can I do except suffer from being dumb, the two big bosses are existences they can't afford to provoke, not to mention, the emperor is clearly biased towards the queen in this matter.

In Yongchang Palace, after receiving the news, the Empress Dowager was so angry that she fell ill on the bed. She heard that it was better to raise a big sow than to raise a son.

Shuanglu vividly described the rumors from the outside world. When it was mentioned that the Empress Dowager was so angry that she fell ill, she danced and performed, covering her chest with one hand, and resting her forehead with the other. Her body trembled slightly, as if she was about to fall.

Everyone was amused and laughed.

Chen Yizhen covered his lips, laughed twice, then, with wide eyes, gave her a sharp look, "Naughty."

"Hee hee." Shuanglu leaned over and leaned on her, "Over there they often make trouble for us, but you have to respect her because of her status, be careful, it's all right now, what is self-indulgence, that's it."

Chen Yizhen shook his head, telling her not to say more.

However, she was not unhappy in her heart, she thought that the emperor would at most stand on the sidelines and not get involved, who would have thought that the emperor would be willing to make decisions for her.

So, should she repay him?

Chen Yizhen propped up his chin, lost in thought, with a smile unconsciously on the corner of his mouth.

The news that the Chen family entered the palace and the news that the emperor reprimanded the Xia family came out of the palace almost at the same time. To be honest, although the family was surprised to hear the former news, they were not particularly surprised. After all, the emperor did many unusual things after the defeat of the Chen family. , and add one more thing, even though it was unbelievable in the past, it seems that it is not impossible to put it on the queen at this time.

It was the latter that surprised them even more, and when people inquired about the reason, no matter how good-tempered and casual they were, they couldn't help being surprised.

The emperor seems to spoil the queen too much.

You can talk about the past if you don't abolish the empress, and you can talk about the past if you return the power of the palace to the queen, and even because the queen is open to the Chen family, you can talk about the past, but this matter, the emperor is because of the queen. , the face of his biological mother.

Everyone thought it was unbelievable, and they were extremely surprised. Did the emperor value the queen so much?

But in the eyes of the noble ladies, they are envious and jealous. Your Majesty, the supreme emperor, the owner of the whole country, can treat a woman so considerately and tenderly. How can this not make them envious.

However, this woman is not theirs, so how can they not make them jealous.

They also want to enter the palace and enjoy the unique favor of the emperor, but after thinking about it again, the emperor has no idea of ​​drafting, even if they want to enter the palace to share the favor, they can't, so they can't help but droop their shoulders in frustration.

No matter how much the outside world thinks, the New Year will continue as usual.

If everyone was surprised by the presence of the Chen family on the day of the visit to the empress, then at the dinner later, when the emperor invited important ministers, the appearance of the second master of the Chen family and the empress' biological father gave everyone an illusion of "as expected".

It seemed that his attendance was only natural, but his absence would be a doubt.

Chen Yizhen had indeed had a good year, met family members whom he had not seen for a long time, and became closer to the emperor.

Even, the emperor promised her that if she wanted to see her family in the future, she could be summoned into the palace at any time, so she didn't have to be so restrained.

Chen Yizhen smiled and nodded in agreement. She will not be so restrained in the future, but she will try her best to choose the time when the emperor is busy and has no time to take care of the harem.

One is for the good of the family, and the other is that the emperor treats her so well, she is not ungrateful in her heart, she naturally has to take his feelings into consideration.

The busy new year is over, and the next first month is not a light month, but fortunately, it is not as busy as the new year.

She will not be able to relax completely until the first month is over.

The new year is over, and spring is approaching, so it's time to get busy with customizing spring shirts for each palace.

This time, the Needlework Bureau was diligent, and came to Zhongcui Palace three times in a row. For the first time, she was not in the palace, but went to Ningshou Palace to talk to her ancestors. Princess Junyu, who was married to another place, was also there. The princess is not in the capital all year round, and this time when she returns to Beijing for the new year, she deliberately plans to stay longer and go to the palace to accompany her ancestors, so she also runs to Ningshou Palace every three days.

The second time, she was in the palace, but she had been busy for the past few days, and felt very tired in the past two days. She was resting in the house. Mammy sent them away first.

Finally, this time, he finally caught up with her figure.

But the people from the needlework bureau dared not say that they were not satisfied at all, and even had to try their best to satisfy her, asking her what color and style she wanted, whether the neckline should be embroidered with gold thread, whether the robe should be wide or narrow sleeves, etc. , detailed and considerate, flattering and flattering.

After the busy first month, Chen Yizhen has been lazy, either eating or sleeping all day long, listening to the questions from the nanny of the acupuncture bureau, he didn't bother to think, so he just waved his hands and let them figure it out.

Anyway, the people in the needlework bureau are more professional than her, and the clothes they make are light and beautiful every time.

Mother Zheng became worried when she saw her sluggish appearance. The symptoms of the empress during this time really resembled being pregnant, but they all knew that the empress could not be pregnant at all.

Because the emperor didn't spend the night in Zhongcui Palace at all.

She was worried, why the empress didn't know how to open up, and didn't know how to keep the emperor.

In the past two years, there were no beautiful women in the palace. If the empress could not take advantage of the situation to conceive and give birth to the prince, not to mention that the harem would be full in the future, her chances of giving birth would be even lower. The harem has no heirs and urges the emperor to accept concubines.

When she sighed, Chen Yizhen should eat and sleep, but nothing happened.

Heir?Let it go!
