I don’t know whether it was because the queen was in a bad mood after being deprived of the power of the harem and felt shameless to see people, or whether she was really sick and unable to see guests, so she asked people around her to notify the palaces, so there was no need to go to her to pay respects.

Although the other concubines didn't know how the queen angered the emperor and made the emperor seize the queen's power, they were all very happy when they heard that they didn't have to go to greet her.

After all, no one likes to be called up early in the morning to go to the queen to pay her respects, unless they are looking for abuse.

However, the queen was not pretending to be ill, but was really ill. As for the reason, it was not just because her power to control the harem was taken away, but because Emperor Jiaqing later went to her palace. As for what he said to the queen Only the queen herself knows what happened.

As for Jiang Wan, she was extremely happy when she knew that Chen'er would be picked up the next day. Although she was tortured by Emperor Jiaqing all night last night, she got up very early. For the first time, she got up before Emperor Jiaqing to go to court. She also woke up, helped him change his clothes, and personally sent him out to attend morning court.

Since she didn't have to go to greet her, Jiang Wan had nothing to do after finishing her breakfast, so she ordered the maids to clean the house where Chen'er lived, and asked them to take out Chen'er's clothes to bask in the sun.

In fact, Chen'er had only stayed with the Queen Mother for a few days, and the place where he lived was not gathering dust yet, but who kept Jiang Wan from having some leisure time?

Everyone also knew Jiang Wan's mood, so they were happy to follow their master. Let alone the master, they were equally happy when they heard the news that the second prince was coming back.

When they first heard that the second prince was sent to the Queen Mother, they almost thought that their empress had lost the right to raise the second prince, and were worried that her empress would fall out of favor. After all, the reason why their empress was so favored was because of the second prince.

After Emperor Jiaqing had his morning court over there, he went to the Empress Dowager of Cining Palace and had breakfast with her.

It is said that people eat and sleep without talking, so the Emperor Jiaqing and the Queen Mother and their son did not talk about anything during the meal. Instead, they waited until the breakfast was finished and the palace maids had taken away all the things before they started talking about business. .

"Your Majesty, the Ai family heard that you took away the power of the queen and temporarily handed over the harem to the wise concubine. Is this true?" the Queen Mother asked Emperor Jiaqing.

"If you go back to your mother, I came here today to find you about this matter. I have already found out about Concubine Hui. She is innocent. However, the queen has no tolerance for others and can do whatever she wants based on her own imagination. I am really worried about how I can get a big job by falsely accusing Concubine Hui, and let her manage the harem." Emperor Jiaqing said.

"Although the Queen did not do the right thing in this matter, a small punishment or a big warning will suffice. No matter what, the Queen is also your first wife and has been with you for more than ten years." Although the Queen Mother was not satisfied with the Queen's actions this time, she After all, the queen has been her daughter-in-law for so many years and is quite filial to her mother-in-law. Moreover, she has worked hard for more than ten years without any merit.

"Mother, I have been very tolerant to the queen. If I hadn't taken her into consideration as my wife, and I was at the critical moment of competing for the throne, I would never have caused such a big scandal in the queen's house, lest the noble concubine would catch me, so I didn't make the matter a big deal and spared her."

"What did the queen do?" The queen mother did not expect that there were things she didn't know about. No wonder her son was not very satisfied with the queen in the past, but because the queen was already married to him and was his first wife, after getting married, He also accepted the queen and respected the queen very much. He and the queen were considered to be harmonious as husband and wife, Qin Se and Ning.

But later on, the son gradually became alienated from the queen. He only had face-saving feelings for her and rarely went to the queen.

The queen came to her and cried to her more than once. She also tried to persuade her son, but although her son agreed on the surface, nothing changed. The relationship between the two was still the same.

"When Erchen was still the prince, there was a concubine named Yunxia in Erchen's courtyard. She was originally the queen's personal maid. Later, the queen opened her face and became Erchen's aunt. The people who served around Aunt Yun They were all assigned to her by the Queen. Although she was Aunt Yun's person on the surface, her master behind the scenes was actually the Queen. Aunt Yun was pregnant without even realizing it, but was discovered by the people around her and secretly reported it to the Queen. Aunt Yun was afraid that giving birth to her eldest son would threaten her status, so he deliberately tampered with Aunt Yun's meals, which not only caused Aunt Yun to have a miscarriage, but also caused Aunt Yun to lose her life." Recalling this, Emperor Jiaqing said I hate the Queen even more.

Aunt Yun was the first pregnant woman in his backyard, so he was deeply impressed. It took two years before another pregnant woman appeared in his backyard, so there has never been a pregnant woman in his backyard. At that time, his dislike for the Queen became stronger and stronger, and he felt that if it were not for the Queen, he would have become a father long ago.

Although all the pregnant women later had miscarriages, and he had investigated that it was not the Queen who had done it, he still could not forgive the Queen.

At that time, the palace did not know that Aunt Yun was pregnant, so he suppressed it. He was also afraid that his mother would be sad if she found out, so he did not tell her.

"The Ai family didn't know that the queen had done such a thing." After listening to his explanation, the queen mother realized why he didn't like the queen.

The child in Aunt Yun's belly was her biological grandson. The queen harmed her grandson, so she was naturally angry.

"Then those concubines in your harem who had miscarriages, were they caused by the queen?" The queen mother couldn't help but become suspicious when she thought of the concubines in her son's harem who had miscarriages.

After all, when the queen attacked Aunt Yun, she couldn't possibly spare others, right?

The more she thought like this, the angrier the Queen Mother became. If this was really what the Queen did, then even the Queen's death a thousand times would not be enough.

"Mother, you have misunderstood. If it was really the queen who did it, how could I have kept her for so long." Emperor Jiaqing saw the queen mother trembling with anger, and was afraid that she would faint from anger, so he hurriedly supported her and explained to her.

If it was really the Queen who did it, the Queen would have been dealt with by him long ago. How could he continue to stay in the Queen's position?

"When the queen did that, I had no evidence, so I just warned her. Maybe it was because of this that she didn't dare to do anything. The miscarriage of the concubines has nothing to do with her, it is indeed my problem."

"But fortunately, now that I have Chen'er, my life is now complete." When Emperor Jiaqing talked about this, the expression on his face softened a lot.
