Concubine Xia knew that Su Tang had entered the palace, because her father-in-law wanted to take Su Tang directly to Zhaoyang Palace. Su Tang had to come to the Imperial Study Room first, but her father-in-law couldn't resist and could only listen to Su Tang.
The emperor summoned Concubine Xia and she had to go. When she entered the royal study, she saw Su Tang sitting there drinking tea. There was a sinister look in her eyes for a moment, so much so that Su Tang thought she had seen it wrong. When she wanted to take a closer look,
Concubine Xia already had a smile on her face.
Concubine Xia walked over at a leisurely pace, "I am still waiting for the eldest concubine in Zhaoyang Palace. I didn't expect the eldest concubine to be here with the emperor."
Su Tang put down the tea cup and stood up to salute Concubine Xia. However, before she could bend down, Concubine Xia held her steady and said, "You don't need to pay so much attention to me."
Since there was no need, Su Tang stood up straight and looked at Concubine Xia with a smile and confusion on her gentle face, "I wonder if the Concubine wants me to come into the palace?"
The emperor also looked at Concubine Xia. The emperor knew how much Concubine Xia loved Yun Jia. The relationship between Su Tang and Yun Jia was not good at all. The emperor just found it strange, so he was told about Concubine Xia.
Concubine Xia said nothing. Su Tang said, "Can't we let the emperor know? Then let's go over there and talk."
Concubine Xia's face was stiff. She kept these words in her heart. Can she say it out loud? Concubine Xia quickly glanced at the emperor. Seeing the emperor frowning, Concubine Xia quickly said, "How could that be?"
After saying that, Concubine Xia took two steps towards the emperor and said, "I have no other reason for asking the Crown Princess of Jingnan to enter the palace. It is because of the drought in the southwest. It's just that I don't know if the Crown Princess of Jingnan is willing."
, I want to discuss it with her and then report it to you, the Emperor."
The emperor asked, "What are we discussing?"
Concubine Xia replied, "The Crown Princess of Jingnan has the same Fuxi bones as you, the emperor. The news will bring safety to the whole country. Being happy and angry will bring misfortune to the people. I want to trouble the Crown Princess of Jingnan to go to the northwest to pray for rain for the victims.
It’s just that the last time I held a concubine
The recommended concubine left the capital to find Master Yun. After she and the prince of Jingnan left the capital, I was worried that something might happen to them while looking for someone. I was so worried that I couldn't eat. But when I heard about the refugees, I was really worried about them.
Can’t bear it…”
Absolutely.
Concubine Xia couldn't bear it and sent her to the northwest to pray for rain.
If God wants it to rain, can anyone ask for it?
Could it be that in her eyes, Concubine Xia, God loves her so much and answers her every request?
And she only knew that the northwest was Prince Ning's territory. If she went to the northwest, wouldn't it be a sheep entering the tiger's mouth?
Prince Ning was the direct son of the Queen Mother. She was so angry with the Queen Mother that she made Feng Yan look down on her. Prince Ning hated her so much that he wanted to get rid of her.
Su Tang knew that Concubine Xia was up to no good by asking her to enter the palace. Fortunately, she had a foresight to take precautions against her. Thinking that Yun Jia had given porridge to the refugees yesterday and suffered from heat stroke, Concubine Xia especially felt sorry for the northwest where Yun Jia asked her to go.
It's just that although Concubine Xia was full of selfish motives, her reasons were so good that Su Tang couldn't refuse her directly.
But she couldn't refuse it outright, so why didn't she take a roundabout way?
Su Tang curled her lips and said, "Concubine Xia is so considerate of the refugees. I shouldn't refuse, but Kyoto is far away from the northwest. It's hard for me to quench my thirst for the northwest. Moreover, although I am lucky enough to have the same life as the emperor."
Fuxi bones, but how can my blessing compare with that of the Emperor?
By the way, I am just a little princess, and the emperor is the lord of all the people. If you must pray for rain, it is best for the emperor to lead all the officials. And Concubine Xia, if you go to the altar to pray for rain, you can also make the people of the world and those
The refugees from the northwest who fled to Kyoto know that the emperor loves his people like his own son."
Concubine Xia's eyes narrowed. She didn't expect that Su Tang would think of asking the emperor to lead hundreds of officials to pray for rain. She said, "It is too dangerous for the emperor to leave the palace."
It is indeed dangerous to leave the palace. After all, Su Tang saw the emperor being poisoned and assassinated twice when he left the palace, and was beaten so badly.
The emperor was a little embarrassed and coughed slightly, "It's not that dangerous to leave the palace."
Su Tang said, "That's right. When the emperor leaves the palace, he must be accompanied by guards. What's more, he is accompanied by hundreds of officials. Those guards are not just decorations."
Concubine Xia looked at the emperor, "Your Majesty..."
The emperor raised his hand to interrupt her, "She is right. The people in the world belong to me, and I should be the one to pray for rain. Let Qin Tianjian choose a good and auspicious day. You can come out of the palace with me to pray for rain and pray for the refugees from the northwest." This chapter has been completed!
