To be honest, his performance this time was a bit out of character, which was not suitable for a king who was about to rule the world.
Although others had questions, they did not dare to ask rashly. Concubine Duan sitting in the middle asked: "Xun'er, why are you so happy?"
"I just received a report that the three commanderies of Lingbei, Jiangxi and Nanhai are willing to submit to the imperial court!"
"Prince Ning, who was jumping up and down, has been captured by them and is now being held in Rongcheng!"
Concubine Duan has always been paying attention to the situation in the world.
Zhao Yanxun didn't care about the rebellion in the five southern counties, but it made Concubine Duan extremely worried.
Now that the three counties have surrendered and Prince Ning has been captured, the remaining two counties are basically unable to make trouble.
"Sure enough, this is great news!" Concubine Duan smiled.
In this way, the world has been decided, and now it is time to discuss the matter of ascending the throne.
"Come on, let's have a drink together!" Zhao Yanxun stood up and said.
Concubine Duan was still sitting, while the other concubines stood up. Xue Baoyun said: "Congratulations, Your Majesty, for bringing peace to the world!"
As soon as she took the initiative, the other girls also followed her to congratulate her.
After greeting all the concubines, Zhao Yanxun saluted Concubine Duan and said, "Concubine, please!"
"please!"
This generation can be said to be the host and guest having a great time, and everyone is happy because they are all one step closer to their goals.
Zhao Yanxun wants the world, the concubines want to be titled, and Concubine Duan wants to be honored... With the peace of the world, these things will be put on the agenda.
When Zhao Yanxun sat down, Concubine Duan turned around and asked: "Xun'er, a country cannot be without a king for a day. Now that the world is peaceful and all wastes are prosperous... you have to take charge of the world!"
"The son can arrange this matter freely, and the mother and concubine don't have to worry!"
Arrangement? What arrangement? After hearing this, Concubine Duan became even more worried.
This stupid son claims to be a saint. Does he really think of himself as a saint and has no desires or desires?
If you tell lies every day and you believe them, it’s not impossible!
Thinking of this, Concubine Duan immediately asked: "Then when will you ascend the throne?"
She did not ask Zhao Yanxun whether he would become emperor, but directly asked him when he would ascend the throne, which was equivalent to reminding him that he must be emperor.
Not only Concubine Duan was concerned about this issue, but all the concubines present also listened attentively.
Unexpectedly, Zhao Yanxun laughed and said, "Concubine, my son will make arrangements for this matter, so just keep it in your mind!"
"I just don't feel at ease. These concubines, as well as those who are following you in the uprising, your life and death, honor and disgrace are all tied to you. You can't be confused!"
Hearing this, Zhao Yanxun couldn't help but be stunned. He finally understood what Concubine Duan said.
He really didn't understand why this biological mother thought that she would not be interested in the throne after putting so much effort into it.
But there are some words that he cannot say too clearly, otherwise he will not be able to perform the whole play.
Zhao Yanxun's smile became warmer and warmer, and he said, "My son understands what the concubine means, so don't worry!"
"That's good!" Concubine Duan nodded.
In fact, she is concerned and confused, otherwise she would not ask these questions at all.
Zhao Yanxun had always talked about the calamity of ousting the rebels and Jingguo. Regarding whether he would become emperor, Zhao Yanxun never expressed his attitude directly. Not only Concubine Duan was worried about it, but the officials below were also worried.
So every day, Zhao Yanxun would receive a memorial urging him to advance.
At the scene, only Lin Jingyu understood Zhao Yanxun's thoughts, just because the latter asked him if he wanted to be the queen.
The banquet continued, and the atmosphere became more joyful because of the good news.
"Send a message to the cabinet and ask them to summon the southern kings to the capital in the name of the imperial court!"
"Anyone who refuses to comply will be punished for treason!"
Huo An quickly responded: "Yes!"
"Also, let the cabinet convene ministers from all ministries to discuss matters in An Palace in the afternoon!"
"yes!"
"Go for it!"
"yes!"
The banquet continued, and finally everyone left happily.
Zhao Yanxun was a heavy drinker, so it was natural that nothing happened, so he personally sent Concubine Duan back, and the other concubines naturally followed her all the way.
After staying in Xianfu Palace for a while, Zhao Yanxun left, and then the concubines dispersed.
In the Xianfu Palace, Huang Rongrong and Zhang Fengxiu were the only ones left. The former was dragged by Concubine Duan to stay.
Huang Rongrong is becoming more and more pregnant now, and Concubine Duan has a good impression of her, so she stays and cares a few more words.
There was a flurry of greetings, but Zhang Fengxiu on the side looked jealous.
"Okay, I won't keep you any longer!"
"Wang Ying!"
Concubine Duan shouted outside, and then a eunuch appeared.
"Use my chariot and sedan to take Concubine Rong back to the palace!"
It has to be said that Concubine Duan's move surprised Wang Ying and Zhang Fengxiu at the side.
In fact, Concubine Duan also watched people prepare food. She saw that Zhao Yanxun was very good to Huang Rongrong, so she thought of flattering her and then using it to disgust Xue Baojun.
Concubine Duan felt really unhappy with Zhao Yanxun supporting Xue Baoyun at today's banquet.
As the saying goes, conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have always been the most difficult to deal with.
"Why are you still standing there? Why don't you hurry up and go!" Concubine Duan's face darkened.
"yes!"
Immediately afterwards, Concubine Duan said to Zhang Fengxiu on the side: "Send her off for me!"
This means that she does not regard herself as an outsider. When she heard this, Zhang Fengxiu felt happy and stood up quickly: "I obey the order!"
"Obey the decree? What decree do you obey?" Prince Duanfei said.
Zhang Fengxiu bowed slightly and said with a smile: "Of course I am following the Queen Mother's decree!"
These words really touched Concubine Duan's heart, but there was only half a hint of joy on her face.
"Stop talking nonsense. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will slap your mouth!"
"Your Majesty, calm down, I don't dare anymore!"
Seeing the two people acting in front of her, Huang Rongrong really couldn't understand it. She just wanted to leave here now.
"Your Majesty, the chariot and sedan chair are ready!"
"I'm taking my leave. I'll come back tomorrow to say hello to my mother and concubine!"
"Go!" Concubine Duan said calmly.
"yes!"
Then, following Concubine Duan's instructions, Zhang Fengxiu followed her out.
Taking a chariot sedan, we soon arrived at Huang Rongrong's palace.
After helping Huang Rongrong down, Zhang Fengxiu walked her into the palace gate.
"Sister Rong, the world is about to be settled, and the prince will be the emperor soon!"
Huang Rongrong nodded and said: "Then we will have less time to accompany you!"
Zhang Fengxiu did not expect that Huang Rongrong would have such a mind-set.
"I really envy you. If you can be a prince, you will be a vassal. You have deep feelings of adversity and sympathy, and the position of noble concubine will definitely be indispensable!"
Unexpectedly, Huang Rongrong said: "I still prefer the days in Longyou Prince's Mansion!"
Zhang Fengxiu continued: "There are different palaces in the palace, and the harem is even more dangerous. Sister Rong, you have to be careful!"
Huang Rongrong has a simple mind. According to Zhang Fengxiu, as long as she uses it properly, it will not be a problem to defeat the other two.
Now she has Concubine Duan's support, which makes her even more confident, so she dares to stir up trouble.
Just listen to Huang Rongrong say: "That's natural. Sister Lin has told me this a long time ago!"
"Even Sister Lin, you have to be more careful, otherwise you may suffer a loss!" Zhang Fengxiu said with a look of good for you.
Huang Rongrong shook her head quickly and said with an unhappy expression: "No, how could Sister Lin do anything bad to me!"
"That's not necessarily the case. As the saying goes, a biting dog never barks. Concubine Lin is usually taciturn, but who knows what's hidden in her belly..."
Before Zhang Fengxiu could finish speaking, she saw a black shadow flash before her eyes, followed by a "pop" sound, and then her face was burning.
Yes, she was slapped on the face by Huang Rongrong.
This slap stunned her so much that she froze on the spot.
After being slapped hard, Huang Rongrong suddenly felt relieved.
Looking at the stunned Zhang Fengxiu in front of her, Huang Rongrong scolded: "If you dare to slander Sister Lin again, I will slap you twice again!"
Zhang Fengxiu has never been beaten since she was a child.
One can imagine how humiliated and angry Huang Rongrong felt at this moment when she was slapped in public.
But at this moment, Zhang Fengxiu tried her best to calm down and persuaded herself not to behave like a fool like Huang Rongrong.
"Thank you sister for the slap!" Zhang Fengxiu's face was as cold as frost.
Huang Rongrong didn't even look at her, and walked directly towards the palace. As she walked, she said: "Who wants you to thank me, who wants you to send me back, I'm really annoying!"
