Ye Fan smiled slightly and said softly: "I have thought of these things for a long time. In this dynasty, it is an unforgivable crime to have only one queen and one woman in the emperor, so I don't care. But, listen to you,
I feel that I have ignored the emperor's thoughts, but since I have done some things, I don't want to explain or talk about it. In the end, you will naturally know why I am like this. - Jiao He, follow me, I will do it to you.
Saying that may not be something worth celebrating. After some time, I will naturally let the emperor choose a family for you and let you live a peaceful and stable life."
Jiaohe shook his head and said softly: "Jiaohe thank you for your kindness. Jiaohe doesn't want to get married. Now that Jiaohe has reached this position, although he is not a master, he is also a good slave. If the emperor were to do it for me,
If I choose a certain family, I'm afraid I won't like it, and they will have to accept it because of my identity, so I'd better let it go."
Ye Fan was slightly startled, and he admired this girl for her thorough thinking. Although Jiao He is a slave now, she is also a popular person in front of the emperor and the queen. If she is looking for a family, she cannot be an elite person, she can only be
How to understand that among ordinary slaves, those who are outstanding can not escape the fate of three wives and four concubines. Although refusing to marry may seem like an escape, it is also a good way to protect yourself.
"Your Majesty, I think it's better not to have any dispute with Miss Du. If you think about it carefully, Miss Du is not taken into consideration by the Emperor. If she really fell into the Emperor's eyes, how could she wait until now? I have been following you all this time.
During the four years that the Emperor has been with you, I know best what the Emperor is thinking. I know that the Emperor has no one else in his heart except you, so I can ignore Miss Du, so as not to cause trouble and implicate you." Jiao.
He said softly, "After all, Miss Du and the others have people overtly and covertly. Let's not talk about anything else. There are actually people from them in our Zhengyang Palace. It's better for the queen to be careful."
Ye Fan nodded and said gently: "I remember, and I will remember to be more careful in the future. It is difficult for you to have these thoughts for me. In this case, I will give you a good home and will not let you marry someone else."
If you don't agree with me, I won't let you marry me as a concubine."
Jiao He's face turned red and she nodded softly.
Ye Fan suddenly smiled faintly and said in a daze: "As you said, this palace is originally a place of right and wrong. I am afraid that I have no intention of provoking her, but she has the intention of provoking me. She is determined to do this, so how can she let it go so easily?
And I had no choice but to do it, and we hit it off immediately."
"Empress, what are you talking about?" Jiao He didn't hear clearly, but seeing Ye Fan's serious expression, he blurted out and asked.
Ye Fan shook his head gently and said nothing.
Sima Xichen left the morning court, and several ministers followed him. Their expressions looked very solemn, as if they had made up their minds. Seeing their expressions, Sima Xichen knew what they were going to say, and knew that they could not avoid it.
Then he slowed down and waited for them to catch up.
"Your Majesty, I have something that I would like to report to the Emperor while avoiding the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty." The minister in charge was about forty years old, with a drooping beard and a gentle manner.
"Luo Aiqing, what's the matter?" Sima Xichen asked pretending not to know.
The visitor said calmly: "What I want to say must be what the emperor hates to hear at this time. However, I cannot let an outsider misunderstand the Daxing Dynasty, so I risked death to come and explain to the emperor.
Your Majesty, please make a clear decision."
Sima Xichen smiled slightly and said, "Why is it so serious? Let me tell you."
Luo Huanmin pondered for a moment and said word by word: "What I mean is to ask the emperor to put the current queen into the cold palace and re-select a quiet and virtuous woman to be the queen of our Daxing Dynasty. The current queen was originally a criminal of the previous dynasty.
How can my daughter receive this honor? I feel that Miss Du, who has saved the emperor now, is more suitable to be the queen of our Daxing Dynasty. Please think again, your Majesty, I really have the future of the Daxing Dynasty in mind before I came up with this idea."
Sima Xichen glanced at the people in front of him and said calmly: "Fan'er is just my beloved wife, what does it have to do with the future of the Daxing Dynasty? What you say is so alarmist!"
Luo Huanmin was stunned and said: "Your Majesty, isn't this a trivial matter? Now a woman is so domineering and does not allow the Emperor to marry another wife and have concubines. Which emperor has not had three thousand beauties in the harem? Is it possible that the Emperor can only have her?
What’s not enough for a wife? Moreover, she couldn’t tolerate Miss Du, who saved the emperor’s life, to stay in the palace. Doesn’t she know too much about etiquette?!”
"This is a matter of my harem, how did you know about it? Who is so imprudent to tell these boudoir affairs and make everyone speculate after dinner?" Sima Xichen deliberately said in a cold tone.
Luo Huanmin's face turned red, he lowered his head, pondered for a long time, and then said: "This is not because I am curious, but it has now spread to the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty. Even if I don't want to know, I can't stop the storm in the city.
ah."
Sima Xichen smiled slightly and said: "It seems that my life is still too dull and boring, and such boring things happened. I can handle my own affairs. If you let me hear these boring things again, you can't blame me."
I think this matter is really boring."
Luo Huanmin was stunned, hesitated, and continued: "If the emperor really can't bear to send the queen to the cold palace, then at least let her restrain her personality and not be too arrogant. Moreover, the emperor should marry a few more wives.
It’s not like the Daxing Dynasty’s harem should be so deserted, right?”
Sima Xichen smiled faintly and did not comment.
"Your Majesty, I have good intentions. The Queen is the daughter of a criminal minister of the previous dynasty. There is no guarantee that she will have any rebellious intentions. If she is allowed to continue like this, I am afraid that those loyal ministers and good generals who fought for the Daxing Dynasty will have something in their hearts.
If you don't give in, wouldn't you miss an important event!" Another minister said in a deep voice, "Not to mention how Aolin Villa took care of the emperor back then, let's just say that Miss Du was willing to sacrifice her life to save the emperor, so she should be commended, and
It’s not like she allowed the Queen to treat her like this, even endangering her life!”
Sima Xichen's face sank, and he tried hard to hide his dissatisfaction, and said calmly: "What I want to do is my business, and what does it have to do with state affairs? Don't use this to coerce me. Aolin Villa has the credit of Aolin Villa.
This has nothing to do with whether I marry Miss Du or not."
"However, if you marry Miss Du, Aolin Villa will be even more devoted to the Daxing Dynasty!" Luo Huanmin blurted out, "The emperor's marriage is related to state affairs. Sometimes, the emperor has to know that the emperor's marriage is not just a matter of marriage.
Not for marrying a woman, but for the whole country."
Sima Xichen said nothing.
"Now everyone knows that the Queen is the daughter of a criminal in the previous dynasty. The Emperor took great care of the Ye family. Not only did he allow her family to live in peace, but he also allowed General Murong to marry the eldest daughter of the Ye family and make the Ye family a daughter-in-law.
The second daughter of the family is the queen. Doesn't this give the people of the world a chance to talk and cause unnecessary trouble?" Luo Huanmin said in a deep voice, "I also know that the empress is the emperor's wife, but I also know to some extent.
Well, this second daughter of the Ye family is a pawn in the emperor's plan to restore the country, and she is not really married to her. In this case, let her be a concubine, why should she be a queen?"
