"You are going to meet the emperor now, probably because of the fifth prince's affairs. Instead of caring about His Majesty's family affairs, Qiao Shangshu should take care of the Ministry of Etiquette." Shangguan Xiaolin stopped him directly.

In his opinion, this Qiao Shangshu deliberately caused trouble for His Majesty. If he pretends to be miserable in front of His Majesty, won't the Qiao family get more rewards?

"His Royal Highness is really not qualified to teach me a lesson. When Prince Chongheng left, you even went to the cold palace."

"What did you say!" Shangguan Xiaolin simply couldn't bear it. What did he mean by mentioning Prince Chongheng when he had something to say?

Seeing Shangguan Xiaolin's posture, Gu Wenkang and Ji Xingwang quickly stopped him.

"Xiao Lin, don't be impulsive. This is the Jinluan Palace. Don't make things difficult for His Majesty." Gu Wenkang persuaded in a low voice.

He also watched Prince Chongheng grow up. What Qiao Shangshu did was definitely inappropriate, but if he was beaten here, Emperor Yinde might blame Shangguan Xiaolin again.

Shangguan Xiaolin quickly calmed down, but did not give in. He just stood there.

"I have met you all, my lords." After a while, Li Fuhai returned again.

The officials all nodded slightly, and Gu Wenkang asked first, "Eunuch Li, what are your orders?"

Li Fuhai bent over and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, Prime Minister, Your Majesty has sent you to the Yangxin Hall to discuss matters at the beginning of Shen Shi today. All the adults should leave as well."

After Li Fuhai finished speaking, he bowed to everyone and left directly.

Gu Wenkang and others were convinced that His Majesty already knew what happened just now, and he sent someone to remind them.

Everyone is an official in the court. If you don't even have this bit of vision, then there is no need to do this errand.

The officials dispersed quickly. Even though Qiao Shangshu was not convinced, he was definitely not willing to let the fifth prince leave like this.

Emperor Yinde came down from court and drove directly to Xinran Palace. The palace officials said that before Qiao Jieyu woke up, he stood in the courtyard of Xinran Palace for a while.

Qin Chongyuan had just gotten up and was dressing up on the window sill. When she saw the figure in the yard, her eyes no longer had enthusiasm, but were replaced by indifference.

What does everything he has now have to do with him?

She didn't dare to go any higher lest she get slapped again.

After all, it is enough for a person to hit the wall once in his life.

Qin Chongyuan quickly handed over the meal, but Emperor Yinde was still standing in the distance.

Li Fuhai came in from outside and saw this scene.

I thought to myself that this Lady Chongyuan is really big-hearted. Your Majesty is so troubled, and she doesn’t know how to come out and have a look. It’s okay to stand with His Majesty even if she doesn’t persuade her.

"Your Majesty, it's cold in autumn, so you'd better put on your cloak." After Li Fuhai finished speaking, Emperor Yin De shook his head slightly, "Is the matter resolved?"

Li Fuhai handed the cloak to Xiao Nanzi and replied, "The adults have dispersed."

Emperor Yin De rubbed his brows tiredly, "Qiao Shangshu is indeed unruly, so you don't have to give away the reward."

The concubine gave birth to the emperor's heir safely. Regardless of whether he is a prince or a princess, according to the rules, he must be rewarded by his mother's family. Originally, Emperor Yinde's reward for the Qiao family had been prepared, but now Qiao Shangshu came directly to do this. , collided with Prince Chongheng, Emperor Yinde naturally did not tolerate him.

After a while, Qiao Jieyu woke up. Her memory of everything in the delivery room yesterday seemed a little blurry, as if her baby was gone.

"Pick the chrysanthemum, pick the chrysanthemum." There was no response after calling twice. Qiao Jieyu became even more panicked, wondering what had happened.

Just as he was wondering, he saw Emperor Yin De coming over with an infant child in his arms.

"Muyan, look, this is our fourth prince. As for the name, I thought of the word 'Xuan'. How about it?" Emperor Yin De held the fourth prince in his arms and showed it to Qiao Jieyu.

Qiao Jieyu raised her hand and touched her son for the first time. She saw him sniff at her and said, "There is no bad name in the name given by His Majesty."

The two of them teased Chengxuan for a while, and the child immediately fell asleep. Emperor Yinde asked a palace maid to carry Chengxuan down.

Qiao Jieyu saw that the palace maid was not the person next to her. She seemed to have seen her in front of the emperor.

"Qingzhu is from the Imperial Palace and is very attentive. Don't worry." Emperor Yinde comforted him.

It was impossible for Qiao Jieyu not to give face to the people in front of the emperor. If the people in front of the emperor could take care of her children, then Emperor Yinde was looking up to her.

She was still seriously thinking about what happened yesterday, and she seemed to hear the word 'die'.

Her eyes were filled with tears instantly, "Does my concubine have another child?"

Emperor Yin De paused for a moment. How could he keep this matter a secret?

He slowly explained everything clearly.

"Your Majesty, who is it? Who wants to kill my concubine? Who wants to kill my concubine's children?" Qiao Jieyu clutched the quilt with both hands, her eyes filled with hatred.

"Don't worry, I will definitely find out about this matter. Xiao Wu is not only your child, but also my own flesh and blood. I have already ordered people to investigate this matter. I believe it will be solved soon. There will be results.”

"I will soon issue an edict to confer you the title of Chongrong and grant you a residence in Yongfu Palace. You will be good and raise Xuan'er under my knees, okay?"

Qiao Jieyu did not agree or refuse directly, she just cried silently.

After a long time, he said, "Caiju grew up with my concubine. That girl's life was miserable and she didn't have a single family member. She served me very diligently. There is no reason to harm my concubine and the child. Please have mercy on your majesty and let Xu Caiju come back to serve you." Concubine."

Emperor Yinde understood this kind of master-servant relationship, and he saw it clearly. When Caiju came out with the fifth prince in his arms last night, tears kept falling, but...

"You have been poisoned. As a palace maid, Caiju must have committed negligence. What's more, she directly contradicted Qin Chongyuan last night, which is considered a disgrace before the emperor. I will not punish her for a serious crime, but don't call her until the matter is clear. I’m here to serve you.”

Qiao Jieyu lay there quietly, "Can your Majesty severely punish the people behind the scenes?"

Emperor Yinde nodded in agreement, "This is natural."

Although Emperor Yin De has been accompanying Qiao Jieyu, they both have their own concerns.

Qiao Jieyu didn't know who was plotting this time, but no matter who it was, the end would be death.

She must let that man be buried with her innocent child.

Emperor Yinde felt that the Qiao family had been very arrogant recently, and because Qiao Jieyu had given birth to a little prince, they began to act irregularly.

Both my grandfather and mother were like this. How much could Emperor Yin De like such a child?

Emperor Yinde had lunch with Qiao Jieyu, then took a look at Chengxuan, and then drove directly back to Yangxin Hall.

He discussed state affairs with Gu Wenkang for an afternoon, and discussed the art of war with Shangguan Xiaolin for a while. The two had just resigned, and Su Qingyao arrived not long after.
