King Lin came forward and bowed, and said, "My brother, I will take my leave first."

"Ah."

King Lin walked to Concubine Ning, took Murong Yan from her arms, and said to his mother and concubine: "My son has left the palace, my concubine, take care of yourself."

"it is good!"

Before King Lin left, Lu Wanxi asked specifically: "Is Yan'er okay? I'll order the imperial doctor to go to Prince Lin's mansion later, so I can't be careless."

"Thank you, sister-in-law."

"Go!"

"My dear brother, please retire."

This farce came to an end. Lu Wanxi ordered: "Take Concubine Su to the Great Buddha Hall, kneel for two hours, and then copy Buddhist scriptures for Da Qi."

"Yes."

The two nuns took Concubine Su away, and Lu Wanxi said to the others: "I hope all of you, concubines and concubines, will restrain themselves and return to your courtesy in the future, and don't do such disrespectful things again and lose your face." You are young, you have lost the royal dignity, and you are all guilty."

"I'll keep it in mind. Thank you, Queen." Concubine Ning stepped forward and responded politely.

Lu Wanxi then sat on Feng Yu, and Gardenia shouted: "Get up!"

"Congratulations to the queen."

Concubine Ning walked up to Yun Xiangrou, looked at the injuries on her face, and said, "I have some good gold sore medicine over there. I'll send it to my sister later. We can't leave any scars on this face."

Yun Xiangrou looked unconcerned and said, "Even if this face is ruined, no one will care. Anyway, I have to enjoy the loneliness in this deep palace for the rest of my life, so why do I care about this face?"

Concubine Yun scolded: "What are you talking about? The most important thing about a woman is her face. If you don't want it, I still want it. Go back and apply the medicine quickly."

"aunt."

Concubine Yun pulled her in. Concubine Ning really felt pity for Yun Xiangrou when she saw her. She didn't have to enter the palace to have a good marriage, but all of this was ruined by her father himself.

Lu Wanxi left Cining Palace, got on Feng Yu and headed to Shoukang Palace, where Murong Chen and Murong Heng were still there. Moreover, the Empress Dowager and the Queen Mother should already know how she handled the matter.

Gardenia was very excited and said: "I have served you since I was a child, and this is the first time I have seen you as domineering as you are today. In fact, the empress is a soft-tempered person. She has been raised in a greenhouse since she was a child. Just like flowers. You haven't experienced any storms, but you are the queen now, so you better have a stronger temperament."

Lu Wanxi also knew what her problem was. In this palace, with the Empress Dowager and the Queen Mother above her, it was not her turn to make the decision on some matters, let alone talk.

Therefore, she tried to be as submissive as possible, and did not want to push forward and bring trouble to herself.

But from now on, it will be different. The Empress Dowager and the Queen Mother asked her to handle this matter today, which already means that it is her turn to take charge of the harem in the future.

"You are right, I am going to change."

"That's what the Queen said."

Shoukang Palace

Someone has already come to report in advance to the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager about what just happened in Cining Palace.

Both of them were very satisfied with Lu Wanxi's handling.

"It's time for Concubine Su to teach her a lesson. Because she gave birth to the late Emperor's youngest son and caused trouble in the harem, she should be dealt with properly," the Queen Mother said angrily.

The Empress Dowager nodded with a smile and said, "Now Wanxi can finally take charge of her own business."

When Lu Wanxi came to pick up Murong Chen and Murong Heng, the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother did not say anything to her. Lu Wanxi also knew very well that in their eyes, this matter was not worth saying.

"Resign politely."

"it is good!"

Lu Wanxi held one hand by the other, and Murong Heng asked with a sweet voice: "Where did the queen go just now?"

"Mother is busy."

"what's up?"

"Children, don't ask too much."

"why?"

Lu Wanxi looked at the two little guys. Now is the time when she is very curious. There are a hundred thousand whys every day.

"No reason, Heng'er is good."

"All right!"

During lunch, Murong Yi heard about what happened in Cining Palace and said, "You handled the matter in Cining Palace well today."

"Thank you for the compliment, Your Majesty."

"But I think your punishment is too light."

Lu Wanxi explained: "After all, Concubine Su is the concubine of the late emperor, and she also gave birth to a young son for the late emperor. She always has to take into account the face of the late emperor. What's more, she is the concubine and also my elder."

"What kind of elder is she? In this palace, your elders are the imperial grandmother and the queen."

"That's in private, but publicly I still have to respect them. Especially Concubine Yun. After all, she is the biological mother of Queen Beichuan."

Among the concubines, the most respected one was naturally Concubine Yun. Even her salary, Lu Wanxi had specially ordered to double it, which was also to give Beichuan face.

"What you said is correct, but I really don't want to recognize them as my elders. My father, the emperor, his concubines, his concubines, and his heirs have many children, and now they are all a burden to us."

Lu Wanxi can also understand him. He is the only one in his harem, but he still has to support many women.

Cining Palace simply could not accommodate so many concubines, so the nearby Yongle Palace was vacated and the concubines were temporarily allowed to live there.

The late emperor left behind so many orphans and widowed mothers, and in the end it was Murong Yi who had to clean up the mess for him. He must have some complaints in his heart.

"Your Majesty is a benevolent king. Do you still care about such a trivial matter?"

"It can't be calculated."

"That's right."

After Murong Yan's hundred-day banquet, Murong Yi issued an order to confer Su Chaoyao as the royal concubine of Prince Lin, and Murong Yan, the eldest son of Prince Lin, was also made the heir apparent.

On this day, Su Chaoyao held her son in her arms and entered the palace to meet Lu Wanxi.

Lu Yanhua also brought her child into the palace and met him in Weiyang Palace.

When Su Chaoyao saw Lu Yanhua, she told her her gratitude that day.

"That day I gave birth, I really want to thank my fourth sister-in-law. If it weren't for my fourth sister-in-law, I might not have been able to survive."

Lu Yanhua didn't take it to heart, and he didn't do anything to help. "Don't take it to heart, I didn't help you with anything. If you want to thank me, you have to thank yourself. It was you who gave Yan'er life, and you didn't give up, right?"

Su Chaoyao burst into tears. She was really satisfied now. Murong Yan in her arms was smiling at her.

Su Chaoyao saw her son's smile and felt that it was all worth it.
