Almost all signs indicate that it is reasonable for her to suspect that the fetus in Zhao Yan's belly is the prince of Song Dynasty.
After all, even if Xie Rou is Xie Baiyan's younger sister, calling her Zhao Yan "Second Sister-in-law" would not be a crime to drug Xie Wei behind the back of Princess Nankang. She could only do such a sinful thing for herself.
Su Tang felt that there would be endless excitement in Jingnan Palace.
Although the third wife is currently in an extremely miserable situation. Her natal family is in ruins, her daughter has been murdered, her son’s marriage has not been used to protect her natal niece, the third master is raising an illegitimate child, and the couple is divorced, but in terms of character and cruelty, the third wife is by no means inferior to Nankang.
Princess, if Zhao Yanzhen murders Xie Wei, she will be brutally retaliated by the third wife.
The third wife even dared to slap Princess Nankang, so how could she take Zhao Yan seriously? What’s more, those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. The third wife has nothing to lose. People who live at the bottom of the valley have no lethality.
, and also the most lethal.
Three days later.
This is the day chosen by Qin Tian Jian to offer sacrifices to the sky and pray for rain.
Xie Boting got up as soon as the gastrodia was brightened. Although he did not have an official position yet, he was the heir apparent of the Jingnan Palace and had the emperor's trust, so he naturally wanted to accompany the emperor to worship heaven.
When Xie Boting got up, Su Tang woke up, turned over, and fell asleep again. When she woke up, it was already three o'clock in the morning.
Su Tang was sitting on the bed, looking at the bright sunshine that could not be blocked by the window screen. Fu Ling came in with a copper basin and said, "It's a good thing that the princess doesn't have to go to pray for rain. It's even hotter today than yesterday."
"Your Majesty, won't he be damaged by the heat?" Banxia asked worriedly.
Su Tang said, "Probably not."
Xie Boting is a martial arts practitioner, and his physical fitness is not comparable to that of ordinary people. In addition, before going to bed last night, he gave him a bottle of summer-relieving pills to take precautions. If this happens, Xie Boting will suffer from heat stroke.
Not only the officials and generals, but also the civil servants had to faint.
Su Tang got out of bed, Banxia and Poria helped her get dressed. Su Tang asked, "Is Concubine Xia also going to pray for rain?"
Although the emperor was planning to take Concubine Xia to pray for rain, Su Tang did not believe that Concubine Xia would follow her honestly. If she had a headache and sprained her legs, the emperor could not force her to go.
Banxia chuckled and said, "Not only Concubine Xia has gone, but the Queen has also gone."
Su Tang was slightly startled, "The queen is being punished, why did the emperor take her to pray for rain?"
Banxia said, "I heard that the queen took the initiative to go. She wanted to do her part for the refugees from the northwest, so the emperor gave his permission."
As soon as Su Tang's head turned, he knew why. Empress Song's phoenix seal was taken away, and Concubine Xia was temporarily in charge of the Sixth Palace. This was already arousing speculation. Now the emperor took Concubine Xia to pray for rain, but he did not take her, who should be the most harmonious, with him.
The emperor and the empress went side by side. Those who didn't know should guess whether the emperor intended to abolish the queen and make Concubine Xia the queen.
No matter how hard and tiring the sacrifice to heaven was, Empress Song had to grit her teeth and go ahead. She couldn't let others see her and the eldest prince's jokes.
Su Tang looked out the window again. On such a hot day, you would be covered in sweat even if you stood in the yard for a while. I heard that you have to kneel for a long time to worship the sky, which is enough for Concubine Xia and Empress Song to drink a pot.
However, Su Tang would not sympathize with them. Concubine Xia harbored evil intentions and could not harm her, while Empress Song was asking for trouble for the sake of power. If she sympathized with them, she would be at odds with herself.
Su Tang washed up and then sat in front of the dressing table, while Fu Ling helped her dress up.
I have to say that Su Tang got up a little late today. She had just finished combing her hair, sat down on the table, and picked up her chopsticks. Before she even took a bite of breakfast, Hong Ling came in and said, "Prince Concubine, Song Guogong.
The sedan chair sent by the government to pick up the third girl has arrived." This chapter has been completed!
