Chapter 711 Title
Since the emperor took the initiative to give the steps, it is not good for the empress dowager to stay stiff. After all, the other party is the emperor, and it is not good for her to fall out with him.
She picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, and the expression on her face slowed down a lot.
"You feel sorry for your concubine, and Aijia can understand it, but in front of so many people last night, your reaction was too much. If it was spread out, it would be bad for you or your concubine."
Luo Qinghan: "I won't be so impulsive anymore."
Seeing that the atmosphere between the grandparents and grandchildren has eased, the smile on Princess Hua'an's face is even more prosperous.
"That's right. They are all a family. If there is any conflict that cannot be resolved, just talk about it."
Then she turned the topic to her own pair of children.
She chose those fun things to say, making the Empress Dowager smile all the more, and she was in a better mood. Even the unsmiling emperor smiled.
Luo Qinghan stood up: "I still have something to do. I'll take a step first. I'd like to ask my aunt to accompany the imperial grandmother. I will visit the imperial grandmother when I have time."
Princess Hua'an got up and sent the emperor away.
The Empress Dowager endured and endured, but still couldn't hold back and called the emperor.
"Is there no room for manoeuvre about Lu Xuanshi?"
Luo Qinghan took a step.
He looked back at the Empress Dowager and asked calmly.
"According to the emperor's grandmother's wishes, what do you think should be done with Lu Xuanci?"
The Empress Dowager: "The punishment of demoting her to a selected servant is already severe enough, there is no need to put her in the cold palace."
Luo Qinghan: "It seems that the imperial grandmother really loves Lu Xuanshi very much. If that's the case, then send her back to the Lu family directly. With the Lu family taking good care of her, I think the imperial grandmother can feel at ease."
The Empress Dowager's face changed.
Although it is not uncommon for Dasheng Dynasty women and Li to remarry, it is limited to ordinary couples.
If a concubine like Lu Xuanshi who has already entered the palace is sent back to her parents' home, it is equivalent to telling the world that Lu Xuanshi has been rejected by the emperor.
A woman rejected by the emperor, who would dare to want it in the future?
Even the reputation of the Lu family will be ruined.
After all, Lu Xuanshi was educated by the Lu family. If he could educate a daughter who was hated by the emperor, could such a family be considered a good family? !
The Empress Dowager refused without thinking: "No!"
Luo Qinghan: "Since the imperial grandmother doesn't want to let Lu Xuanshi go back to her parents' house, let her stay in the cold palace honestly, don't worry, as long as she doesn't cause trouble in the future, I will let her live the rest of her life in peace. ."
After saying that, he walked away without looking back.
The Empress Dowager looked at the back of his departure, a little lost.
Princess Hua'an sat down beside her with a warm voice of relief.
"Mother, my son knows that you feel sorry for Lu Xuanshi and don't want her to waste her life in the cold palace.
But you should understand that with Lu Xuanshi's impulsive and reckless character, even if you rescue her this time, it may not cause any trouble in the future?
What if she involves you or even the entire Lu family in the future?
Instead of letting her cause trouble outside, it is better to let her stay in the cold palace honestly. "
Although Lu Xuanshi was Princess Hua'an's cousin, there wasn't much contact between them, let alone how deep a relationship they had.
For Princess Hua'an, such a brainless cousin and niece who likes to cause trouble, she should stay in the cold palace honestly, so as not to harm others and herself.
The Empress Dowager sighed: "Lu Xuanshi is second, and Ai's family is mainly worried."
Princess Hua'an: "What are you worried about?"
"You should have seen Concubine Xiao, right? Her face is somewhat similar to Concubine Xiao. Ai's family had always thought that the emperor used Concubine as Concubine Xiao's stand-in, but after what happened last night, Ai's family felt that the matter was different. It's not that simple, maybe, the imperial concubine is not just a stand-in."
Princess Hua'an: "What are you suspecting?"
The Empress Dowager frowned, her face dignified.
"The Aijia originally suspected that Concubine Xiao was Concubine Xiao, but the two of them were only somewhat similar in appearance, with completely different bodies and voices, and they didn't look like one person.
But if they were two people who didn't want to do it at all, how did Princess Nanfeng fascinate the emperor in such a short period of time?
Unless, she used Gu. "
As we all know, Nanyue people are good at using Gu, and as the daughter of King Nanyue, Princess Nanfeng must be a master at using Gu.
If she used Gu on the emperor, which caused the emperor to fall in love with her, then everything would make sense.
Princess Hua An was taken aback: "No way? Where did she have such courage? If she is discovered, she will be finished! Besides, the imperial physician will ask the emperor for a pulse every two days. If the emperor is ill , it is impossible for the imperial doctor's order to be unaware."
The Empress Dowager: "What if the Imperial Physician can't detect the existence of Gu worms? The emperor's body is related to Guozuo. Since the Ai family has this suspicion, they must look for it."
Princess Hua'an: "How is the mother going to investigate?"
The Empress Dowager: "You help Ai's family to look outside to see if there is anyone who knows about Gu insects. If you can find them, Ai's family will be rewarded."
Princess Hua'an: "I'm afraid this kind of person is hard to find, but I will try my best."
"Remember, this matter must not be publicized."
"My son understands."
...
Xiao Xixi knew that the Empress Dowager would definitely doubt herself, so she was ready to accept the temptation.
But I waited and waited, and I didn't see any movement from the Empress Dowager for several days.
On the contrary, Concubine Bai, who was in Yanyu Palace, received an imperial decree.
Bai Fei was quite surprised when she heard that there was an imperial edict.
She has been recuperating in the Misty Rain Palace recently and rarely goes out. How could the emperor suddenly think of her?
The imperial decree was personally delivered to Yanyu Palace by Eunuch Chang.
As soon as he entered the door, he was delighted.
"Congratulations, Concubine Bai!"
Bai Concubine became more and more puzzled when she heard the words: "What is the happy event in this palace?"
Eunuch Chang held the imperial decree in his hand and said with a smile: "The emperor has a decree to give you a title, isn't this a happy event?"
Hearing this, the maids and eunuchs of Yanyu Palace were very happy, and Concubine Bai herself was also very pleasantly surprised.
To know that there are so many concubines in the harem, no one has been able to get the title.
Now that Concubine Bai has a title, it is equivalent to being the first concubine in the entire harem to receive a title. This is really an honor!
Concubine Bai knelt down with full of excitement.
The people who were waiting around were also kneeling.
Eunuch Chang unfolded the imperial decree and began to read the decree.
This imperial decree is very concise and concise, with only one sentence from beginning to end.
"The emperor has a decree to give Concubine Bai the title 'Tuberculosis'!"
Eunuch Chang rolled up the imperial decree, handed it over with both hands, and said with a genuine smile.
"The concubine concubine tuberculosis, please accept the order and thank you."
The concubine was stunned, her mind blank.
She never imagined that the emperor would give herself such a title.
Everyone else was stunned.
