"It's indeed smart!" Li Wenchong nodded, "There are not many civil and military officials in the court as clear as him. The Third Division and the Three Duke Mansions were now only one of the Xuan family."

The once mighty Taifu Mansion and Taishi Mansion were all dismounted.

Of course, Emperor Mingguang cannot be blamed for being cruel.

It was because they were too powerful and dominate the court and the government back then.

Anyone with ambitions does not want to become a puppet of a court official. It is normal for Emperor Mingguang to "tie" them.

But this also proves the soberness and wisdom of Xuan Taibao.

"Then do you think the Xuan family has the heart to fight?"

Li Wenchong shook his head: "I don't know this. When Xuan Taibao retired, I was still young. Regardless of whether they had it or not, they have reached this point and there is no way out."

Xuan Family: "…"

The eldest prince Li Jian: “…”

Actually, at the beginning, I didn't.

but……

It was not since he went to the study room that he had been suppressed by the prince of Jin. He was dissatisfied and wanted to fight.

As for whether we can win...

have no idea.

...

Concubine Yu: "..."

You guess I don't want my son to fight?

At the beginning, Concubine Yu must have not wanted it.

She was born in the Xuan Taibao Mansion and married the most noble person in the world. What else can I fight for?

Not fighting is fighting.

It is better not to fight than to fight.

She never thought about fighting, but who could have thought of it?

The first queen was not strong and did not leave a son for Mingguang. The other high-ranking concubines were not strong. They either didn't give birth or were not strong enough. They were either not strong enough or they were not allowed to be born, but they were dealt with by Emperor Mingguang because they made a mistake.

Concubine Yu turned her head and found that she not only gave birth to the eldest son, but also had a relatively high position in the prince's mother, and the higher ones were basically ranked behind.

So...

I don't know why, but it became what I am today.

For a moment, Concubine Yu had no other choice, so she could only take one step at a time and become more careful.

I am afraid that even if the eldest prince does not compete for that position, there will be no good ending behind him, so he can only start "competing".

However, Concubine Yu is more rational than Prince Jin's mother, Concubine Fu. She knew very well in her heart that Emperor Mingguang's dragon body was healthy and I wonder how many years he could sit. Premature exposure is not a good thing for the eldest prince.

Of course, we can't just ignore it, without any competition. Otherwise, if Emperor Mingguang really kicked the eldest prince out of consideration, that would be bad.

The last one is what it is now.

It cannot be said that there is no human factor at all, it can only be said that "coincidence of marriage" creates everything.

No one knows everything behind this except the Xuan family and Yu Guifei himself.

The couple talked for a while before they fell asleep.

I don’t know if the fire that Emperor Mingguang broke out that day took effect, but in the next few days, the inside and outside the court were very quiet.

It’s not that Prince Jin’s mother, Concubine Fu, doesn’t want to plead with her, but unfortunately she is not a favored person. In addition, she has a low status and has no choice but to speak.

If she hadn't given birth to the Prince of Jin, she would have been in the position of the seventh-grade imperial daughter.

When Emperor Mingguang was young, he was still quite beautiful. There were not many high-ranking concubines in the harem. Most of them were married when he was a prince, and the rest were married when he was just the emperor and his position was unstable.

Later, he gradually took power and did not like being influenced by others. He was more willing to favor some concubines who were not at a high position.

It was at this time that Concubine Fu caught the eye of Emperor Mingguang, and a high-ranking concubine wanted to "borrow her belly and give birth to a child" and took the initiative to send it to Emperor Mingguang.

Since it is used to give birth to a child, your brain doesn't need to be too easy and can't be too beautiful, but it's reasonable.

This is how Concubine Fu looks like. In terms of beauty, there are many people in the palace who are more beautiful than her; in terms of brains, there are many people in the palace who have brains than her. Her only luck is probably the eyes of the high-ranking concubine.

It’s a pity that the child was born, and the high-ranking concubine had not yet brought the child to her, and her parents’ home collapsed.

Immediately afterwards, the high-ranking concubine was sent to the cold palace and hanged herself on a winter night.

Without the protection of the high-ranking concubine, Concubine Fu suffered a lot in this cannibalistic harem. If the first queen had not been generous to others and had taken care of her for the sake of the children, she would not have raised her children, and she would probably not even survive.

Later, there were frequent children in the harem, but not many people lived to the point of life.

The one in front did not sit still. When the time came, the prince of Jin ranked second and became the second prince of the Ming Dynasty.

There are so many children who die, but Emperor Mingguang is not suspicious or not without investigation, but unfortunately, no clues are found, and those children are just unable to raise them.

On the contrary, the queen was questioned by him and started arguing with him. She had been cold for several years.

In those years, the Queen's health gradually became worse.

Later, the queen went there first.

After that, Emperor Mingguang regretted it very much, but it was too late.

From then on, Emperor Mingguang never made an empress again.

I don’t know if the Queen’s departure opened the royal fertility gate. After a few years, the harem was like mushrooms after a rain, and children emerged one by one.

Emperor Mingguang: "..."

So, does this matter have anything to do with the Queen’s?

Queen: "…"

It's nothing to do with me!

You can't live without dying!

If I had known this, I might as well not be this queen.

Then, the high-ranking concubines in the harem fought for power and suppressed profits, and all kinds of conspiracies and tricks were born, so they would die.

Emperor Mingguang was furious and took good care of it.

Although Concubine Yu was also a high-ranking concubine at that time, she was not the only one of the high-ranking concubines, so she was not very conspicuous. As a result, when Emperor Mingguang cleaned up, a few years later, Concubine Yu suddenly discovered: Damn!

It's dangerous!

Why is it that I was the only one left?!

With the existence of the eldest prince, Concubine Yu was cautious, afraid that something would happen to Emperor Mingguang.

She could see that Emperor Mingguang was cruel and ruthless, but he would not tell you any credit and hard work. After years of love, you would be in the hands of him. He would do whatever he should do.

Perhaps it was because Emperor Mingguang had dealt too hard in those years that none of the women in the harem dared to emerge.

Even the concubine Fu, who gave birth to Prince Jin, was later when Prince Jin grew up and made contributions, and then gradually rose to the throne of concubine. Otherwise, she would have been unable to be promoted to Princess Jie.

There were several concubines in the harem who gave birth to a child and were still in that position.

Although some people secretly stated that Emperor Guang was "stingy", no one dared to run to him and say. There is no way. Who made the older this master less likely to run into the harem, and the less he liked to swear these women in the harem?

He was happy and rewarded you with something, but if you make him unhappy, it would be a trivial matter of being confined, and he might just be sent to the cold palace.

The high-ranking concubines who once came out of the mansion were all mercilessly dealt with by Emperor Mingguang. Who dared to be the low-ranking concubines who were not of high origin and had never been favored?

The great palace maid Shui Rou looked at Concubine Fu silently wiping her tears, and she had a headache.

If you don’t sleep at night, what’s the use of wiping your tears?

If you really worry about the Prince of Jin, you either go to His Majesty to plead with you, or find a way to give the Prince of Jin some things to show your concern.

This guy is fine, he does nothing except crying.

So, are you really feeling sorry or pretending to be feeling sorry?
