C198 Choose a Concubine for the Emperor

0But it didn't matter, she was the one who dealt with all kinds of complaints. If you dare to frame her husband, laozi will definitely beat you until your mother doesn't recognize you.    

    

After the emperor heard Empress's words, he looked deeply at the wangfei. Huang'er, who had bewitched him, did not say anything. Even the Queen Mother stood on their side.    

    

He knew that if this continued, the injured ones would be him, Huang'er, and Empress.    

    

Nangong Zhengxiao looked at her disappointing son and his wife and said to his mother, "Imperial Mother, this son remembers that there are still some matters that he has yet to settle today. This son might not have the time to accompany his mother for dinner."    

    

"Yes, national affairs are more important." The empress dowager nodded, then suddenly said, "Since Huang'er has come, then I remember. It's autumn again, and the quadrennial talent show is about to begin.    

    

This year's Huang'er's talent show will be handled by Luoluo. Otherwise, Huang'er will not be interested in the beautiful ladies that she chooses as usual. It's really lonely to have so many royal grandchildren in the palace. "    

    

Hearing that, the empress's face turned pale. She forced a smile and said, "Imperial Mother thinks it's too cold. Can Imperial Mother allow Chen to marry a few more concubines? Will Imperial Mother still be afraid of not having any descendants?"    

    

The empress dowager's face immediately stiffened as she ruthlessly rebuked, "What shameful words?    

    

Isn't it a joke of the world to take in a side concubine after only marrying a wangfei? In this world, who didn't know that we were awakened by Chen's love? To be able to get married in a blink of an eye, isn't that slapping Chen's face?    

    

Wasn't this the same as making Nanqi a laughing stock? You don't even know what your heart is! In order to make the son of the royal family prosper, and allow the emperor to marry more concubines and expand the family's influence, I will do anything to stop you from doing so. It's such a waste for you to act like a mother to the empress of this world with your breadth of mind! "    

    

The empress's tears were about to fall as she was scolded. So what if she had her own selfish motives? But didn't the empress dowager have a selfish heart? What was he talking about? He already had several sons in Yiwen, so how could he not be talking about opening branches and spreading leaves?    

    

The empress dowager had never treated her as a member of the Nangong family and only Nangong Yichen's child was a descendant of the Nangong family!    

    

Don't think she didn't know what the empress dowager wanted to do with the imperial concubine! The empress dowager wanted the emperor to not spoil her, wanted more women to divide up the emperor's love so she wouldn't have the energy to deal with Nangong Yichen!    

    

But would she be so easy to talk to? If she was that easy to talk to, then those imperial concubines would have already pressed down on her. How could they allow her to spoil them all! Not only did she want to suppress those concubines to the point where they couldn't fight back, she also wanted Nangong Yichen to never ascend to the throne!    

    

All of this was in her heart, but she appeared weak and helpless, as if she was in a trance, causing Nangong Zhengxiao to feel a pang in his heart when he saw her.    

    

He said to the empress dowager, "Imperial Mother, now that the harem is full, we should put aside the matter of the talent show for a few days to discuss!"    

    

The empress dowager's eyes were cold as she said, "Huang'er's words are wrong. Since the harem is so full, why haven't I seen these concubines give birth to a child and a woman in so many years?    

    

"It seems like these concubines are not suitable for Huang'er. That's why This Dowager wants to add a few people to Huang'er's entourage so that I can take care of Huang'er better."    

    

Nangong Zhengxiao said awkwardly, "You can't blame those concubines. It's really because Huang'er is too busy with political affairs, so he rarely goes to them!"    

    

"Huang'er is even more wrong. In the imperial harem, since we are married to them, we need to let both rain and dew flow. Huang'er has been living at the empress's place all day, and other than having a son a dozen years ago, the empress has never given birth to anything else." Huang'er is irresponsible to the nation if he is still wasting energy at the empress's place!    

    

This is the empress's fault! "    

    

After saying that, the empress dowager ordered, "Someone, you can dispense with the empress dowager's sleeping card for this half a year."    

    

"Muhou!" Nangong Zhengxiao was shocked and anxious to stop it.    

    

The empress dowager gave him a profound look and said coldly, "What's wrong? You can't bear to part with it? Why haven't I seen you act in such a deep and loving manner before? "    

    

Hearing this, Nangong Zhengxiao's face turned ashen. Yan Su Ming had always been his guilty conscience. Yes, he liked Nangong Yichen's mother for real, but it was because she was the empress dowager's niece that the empress dowager valued her so much.    

    

Seeing her, he would think that he was just a puppet. That woman was something he loved and hated. He thought about it and finally hardened his heart. He said to the empress dowager, "I'll do as mother commands!"    

    

Empress staggered when she heard that. She looked at Nangong Zhengxiao in disbelief. She couldn't believe that those words came from his mouth.    

    

Nangong Zhengxiao didn't even look at her and said to the empress dowager, "Since Imperial Mother has nothing else to do, your son will take his leave."    

    

"En, go. Mother will arrange everything for you. Remember, Mother is doing this for you."    

    

"Yes, your son understands!" Nangong Zhengxiao nodded and walked out respectfully. Empress looked at the man's back as he left. She could feel the pain in her heart. This man was the man she had loved all her life. How could he abandon all his years of love for her mother?    

    

She knew Nangong Yichen's mother was this man's favorite man, but could their feelings be ignored? Nangong Zhengxiao, I really want to know, who is the person you like the most right now?    

    

Empress bit her lips and cast a resentful glance at the empress dowager, before hurriedly bowing and following Nangong Zhengxiao.    

    

After they left, the empress dowager smiled coldly and scolded, "You fox, you want to spoil the harem alone. If you want to be beautiful, even if I'm disgusted, I'll disgust you to death!"    

    

"Royal Grandmother is indeed old and spicy!" Nangong Yichen smiled and flattered him.    

    

The empress dowager's anger turned into happiness as she scolded, "You little furry monkey, are you praising me?"    

    

Nangong Yichen said with a mischievous smile, "Of course!"    

    

"Pfft!" The empress dowager couldn't hold back her laughter. Only in front of Nangong Yichen would she be able to laugh from the bottom of her heart.    

    

She sighed: "I don't know how long I'll be able to protect you, but you have to quickly take control of the power. That Royal Father of yours has a soft ear, but he has a weak temper. I'm really worried."    

    

Yun Luo answered, "So Grandmother intends to fill up the imperial harem with some concubines so that Empress can be overwhelmed. She has to busy herself with cleaning up the women in the harem every day and has no time to participate in the imperial court's business!    

    

It's really a great fortune for Yichen to have a grandma like you! "    

    

Hearing that, the empress dowager raised an eyebrow and praised, "You're really a clever girl, worthy of my family's Chen."    

    

Yun Luo smiled but didn't say anything. Nangong Yichen refused, "Grandmother, don't say that. Your grandson is the one who deserves her. If she shows off her strength, grandchild won't be able to bear the consequences."    

    

"Yichen!" Yun Luo gave Nangong Yichen a shy and disapproving look. This man's mouth really had no door, he had said in front of his elders. If the Empress really misunderstood her bullying Yichen, she would be wrongly accused.    

    

When the empress dowager saw that she was getting anxious, she smiled. "Little girl, don't scold him. He's like that with no proper form."    

    

Yun Luo's face reddened as she whispered, "Grandmother, please don't misunderstand. Grandmother's wife follows his lead."    

    

The empress dowager smiled. "This Dowager doesn't care about the matters between you two young husband and wife. This Dowager only wants you to give birth earlier so This Dowager can carry a great-grandson. Forget about my wish in this life."    

    

"Don't worry, this Royal Grandmother, you're still healthy. Don't mention a great-grandson, even if there were many grandchildren, your grandson and Lili would have been able to do it for you. Lili, don't you think so?"    

    

Yun Luo was so embarrassed that her face turned red, but she could not deny it. She blushed bashfully as she said, "Royal Grandmother will definitely accomplish what she wants."    

    

"Hahaha …" When the empress dowager saw this, she laughed heartily and said to Nangong Yichen, "Girl, you have to get used to Chen's roguish appearance. It's all my fault."    

    

"Yichen is great, Luoluo likes him a lot." Yun Luo immediately replied like a mosquito.    

    

Luckily, the empress dowager had good ears and understood what was going on, so she was overjoyed. For someone as thin-skinned as Yun Luo to say such words in front of her, it showed just how determined she was to love Chen.    

    

After she finished laughing, she spoke with a serious tone, "About that, my back surface is gentle and my heart is treacherous. You will have to meet her often in the palace, so you have to be careful. If there's anything wrong, immediately send someone to inform This Dowager."    

    

Yun Luo said gratefully, "Thank you, Royal Grandmother, for your care. Luoluo is really ashamed. She can't worry about Grandmother, but Grandmother has to worry about her."    

    

"Silly girl, I'm old now, and my only concern is Chen. Now there's you, isn't it a kind of happiness to have someone hanging on your heart?"    

    

These few people were talking and laughing here, but they did not know that their Dongsheng Kingdom s were currently causing them to panic. According to others, the people have now lost dozens of children. Even if someone solved the case, they would not be able to find out the reason behind it. It was as if those children had disappeared without a trace.    

    

Shangguan Jing felt a headache when she looked at the papers that others handed to her. She turned to her son Shangguan Yelee and asked, "Li'er, what do you think about this matter?"    

    

"In reply to Imperial Father, I truly feel that these kids' disappearance is strange. I feel that letting these people investigate is a waste of time, so I might as well have this child personally investigate it!"    

    

"This isn't like the usual cases. These kids seem to have disappeared into thin air. Are you sure you have a way to investigate this?"    

    

Shangguan Jing also did not dare to guarantee that this matter would not be settled. She only hoped that their Dongsheng Kingdom s would not cause any more mishaps, and the other three were already eyeing their country covetously.    

    

"If these three countries were to join hands, then this country of theirs would be destroyed in no time!" "As long as we do it, we will definitely leave behind clues. As long as we follow through with it, we will definitely reap some rewards." Shangguan Yelee said.    

    

Shangguan Jing nodded and said, "Alright, I'll leave this matter to you! I... "Cough, cough, cough..." Shangguan Jing had just finished speaking when she heard the sound of coughing.
