Chapter 301: Emperor with Hidden Disease VS Tofu Xishi (21)
·
Ye Xiu Lao Po
First, the father of the noble concubine Li was embezzled and bribed, formed a clique for personal gain, and was sentenced to execution. After that, everyone in the Li family was sentenced to exile.
Nothing happened to Concubine Xian's father, but it was revealed that her brother pretended to be a military leader during the war, so something happened to the Liu family.
Concubine Xian was also implicated because of this. Of course, she was not demoted to a commoner like a noble concubine and then exiled with her family. She was just demoted from Concubine Xian to the position of Jieyu.
Jieyu suddenly changed from a first-grade concubine to a third-grade concubine. She was not favored and now she has lost her high position. She will definitely not have a good life in the future.
Then there were Wang Zhaoyi, Xu Zhaorong and Gao Zhaoyuan, and something happened to their natal families.
Someone in the Wang family was tyrannical, maliciously occupying people's fields, and taking human life lightly, and then Wang Zhaoyi was implicated.
The Wang family was not confiscated, but Wang Zhaoyi was domineeringly sent back to her parents' home by Qin Mu, who also said that he could not afford a woman from the Wang family.
Of course Wang Zhaoyi was sent away, and Wang Meiren, who also had the same surname as Wang, was also implicated and sent away by Qin Mu.
Xu Zhaorong's natal family was relatively peaceful, but her father also made a mistake and was fired from his official position and demoted to Lingnan.
Xu Zhaorong was sent back to her parents' home by Qin Mu. Of course, this time she was not sent back with great fanfare like Wang Zhaoyi, but was sent back secretly.
Gao Zhaoyuan's affair with the palace guards was discovered.
Of course, Gao Zhaoyuan did not have an intimate relationship with the guard. She just wrote love poems and the two had a spiritual love affair.
This matter was discovered, and Qin Mu was not very angry.
After all, he has never touched anyone. Although the women in the harem are all his women by default, since he can't touch them, he has no intention of pursuing them.
As a result, Gao Zhaoyuan died of illness, and the guard was dismissed from his official position due to disgrace in front of the emperor; in fact, they were both sent out of the palace.
Qin Mu "helped" them both. Whether they could live well after leaving the palace and whether they could continue to love each other was beyond his control.
When Wu Shuang was about to give birth, there were only two concubines left in the harem out of nine other concubines except him.
Concubine Xian, and the unknown Jieyu Liu family.
This Mrs. Liu didn't like anyone, and her family didn't make any mistakes. She did nothing and didn't fight for favor, so she was left by Qin Mu.
And Xian Fei Liu Xue... no, now it's Jieyu Liu Xue. She was demoted two levels because of her brother's affairs, which can be regarded as punishment.
Liu Xue's original plan to have Wushuang recognize her father as her adoptive father and have a prominent natal family was shelved.
After all, she herself was demoted two levels by her brother. If Wushuang recognized her father as her adoptive father, she was not from a prominent family, and might be a hindrance to the eldest son of the emperor.
And depending on His Majesty's intentions, Wushuang, a concubine with no natal family background and no relatives, is what he likes even more.
Liu Xue couldn't help but smile bitterly when she thought of this.
Why can't she understand?
There are so many noble ladies in the harem, why doesn't His Majesty favor them?
Perhaps it was because of the problem of relatives that the emperor preferred Chen Xiuyi who had no problems with relatives.
In the future, when the eldest son of the emperor really becomes the prince, he won't have to worry about his relatives interfering in politics.
……
"In the blink of an eye, am I the biggest in the harem?" Wushuang asked Qin Mu, looking at her pregnant belly.
"I, a second-grade Xiuyi, have become the highest-ranking woman in the harem?" Wushuang said, staring into Qin Mu's eyes.
"Aren't you happy, my dear concubine?" Qin Mu said with a smile, "When the child in your belly is born, maybe I can make you a noble concubine...or queen."
Wushuang: "Real or false?"
"Would I lie to you?" Qin Mu said.
Wushuang: "...In this case, I'm looking forward to it."
I just don't know whether Qin Mu will make her a concubine or make her a queen directly.
in the hall.
"There are only a few people in your majesty's harem now, which is not good for your heirs. I beg your majesty to include more people in your harem!" A certain minister stood up and said.
After seeing that the emperor had cleared out all the few people in the harem, many ministers felt a sense of crisis, but some felt that this was an opportunity.
The concubines in His Majesty's harem have all been cleared out. Now not only is there no one in the post, but there is no one in the fourth concubine, and among the nine concubines, there is only one Chen Xiuyi.
Xiuyi, this is not Zhaoyi, the head of the nine concubines.
So this is an opportunity for those ministers who have girls of suitable age in their families. If they send their daughters to the palace, they will have the opportunity to become the head of the country.
"I sincerely ask your Majesty to welcome the harem to a large number of descendants." Other ministers also agreed with the minister who stood up first.
Qin Mu looked at the group of people and said calmly, "I intend to make Chen Xiuyi the queen."
"After Chen Xiuyi entered the palace, she kept her peace and abided by her duties as a concubine. Now she is still pregnant with my heir. She should be the queen."
"Your Majesty, you must not do this!" The one who first stood up to ask Qin Mu to accept the harem was the Minister of Rites, and he was also the first to oppose Qin Mu's appointment of Wushuang as his queen.
"Your Majesty, Mrs. Xiuyi Liu is unworthy of being your queen." The Minister of Rites said, "Mrs. Xiuyi Liu's mother-in-law committed a crime and was exiled. She is the daughter of a sinner. It is her honor to become your Majesty's Xiuyi. How can she be allowed to do it for you?" back?"
"Xiuyi Liu was originally just the daughter of the owner of Tofu Shop. She came from a poor and humble background. Fortunately, she was able to enter the palace because of His Majesty's love."
"She is unworthy of being the queen in every aspect. Your Majesty, please think again!" The Minister of Rites firmly opposed Qin Mu's appointment of Wushuang as the queen.
If a woman of such a humble background is given as a queen, will all the wives of the imperial court have to bow to her in the future?How can those women who come from aristocratic families endure it?
And their daughter will be sent to the harem.
If Mrs. Liu becomes the queen, will their daughter also have to pay respects to the "queen" every day?
No, their daughter cannot suffer this kind of injustice.
The main reason is that the Minister of Rites wants to compete for the position of queen for his daughter.
His daughter is well-educated, dignified and virtuous. Such a person is suitable to be the mother of a country. How can Mrs. Liu be compared with his daughter?
"Your Majesty, please think again." Other ministers also objected.
"Your Majesty, I think General Huo's daughter is suitable to be my queen."
"Your Majesty, I also think that General Huo's daughter is suitable to be the queen."
The Minister of Rites suddenly looked at the people around him. What was going on with these people?He actually wants to promote others to compete with his daughter for the position of queen?
General Huo's daughter, how could a military general's daughter compare to his daughter?
His daughter has been studying since she was a child. How can she compare to General Huo, a rough woman who has learned to use sticks since she was a child?
"Your Majesty, I think it's inappropriate." The Minister of Rites said quickly, "Huo has danced with her father and brother since she was a child. How can such a rough and savage woman be able to assume the important role of the mother of a country?"
"The words of the Minister of Rites are wrong."
"What does the Minister of War have to say?"
Then Qin Mu, who was sitting in front, watched helplessly as the ministers quarreled over who was more suitable to be the queen.
But this group of people had only one purpose, which was that Qin Mu wanted Wushuang to be his queen, and they would not agree to it.
Unfortunately, Qin Mu is not someone who listens to ministers. He has his own judgment and persistence.
Nothing happened to Concubine Xian's father, but it was revealed that her brother pretended to be a military leader during the war, so something happened to the Liu family.
Concubine Xian was also implicated because of this. Of course, she was not demoted to a commoner like a noble concubine and then exiled with her family. She was just demoted from Concubine Xian to the position of Jieyu.
