The empress is pregnant, and the emperor's incense continues

The queen choked. Girls who married for the second time usually married low. Meng Wenyao was from a high family. She would definitely not be able to marry into a high family for the second time. If she married low, she would not be considered a good husband.

At that time, she just said it casually and deliberately humiliated Meng Wenyao. She never thought about letting Meng Wenyao marry some good man and die in the family temple.

She was at a loss for words when asked, so she turned to the Emperor for help and asked, "Your Majesty?"

The emperor drank tea leisurely, pretending to be indifferent, and said coolly: "Mrs. Meng is right. Since the queen thinks that Miss Meng can reconcile with Li and remarry the husband she wants, it is better for the queen to be a matchmaker. "

Meng Shangshu calmed down until now. Seeing the Queen's aggressive attitude, he felt that it was the political struggle that harmed Yao'er. Moreover, he felt that the emperor was not a good match, so he should take his daughter home and raise it himself.

"Madam, go wake up Yao'er and let's go home."

Mrs. Meng was shocked and said: "Master, the imperial doctor has told me that the little confinement boy cannot blow the wind, and Yao'er cannot go out."

Meng Shangshu said angrily: "She is not a concubine, how can she stay in the palace? Even if my daughter, the Meng family, dies, she will die outside the palace."

The emperor was also afraid that Meng Shangshu's stubborn temper would arise. What if he really took Meng Wenyao back to the house? He then advised: "Master Meng loves his daughter very much. I understand, but it's just that it's not suitable for your daughter to go out to enjoy the breeze. What do you think of the queen?"

The queen nodded in agreement and promised: "With the arrangement of this palace, Miss Meng can stay in the palace for confinement with peace of mind."

Meng Shangshu was furious: "Empress, are you not going to let go until your daughter's reputation is ruined? If my daughter stays in the palace for a month, where will her reputation be in the future? Who else can she marry? Who dares to marry her?"

The queen was being chased and asked, and her brain was a little confused. If Meng Wenyao didn't marry well in the future, some people would say that she forced Meng Wenyao to divorce, which ruined Meng Wenyao's life. If Meng Wenyao married well, she would not be reconciled.

Now that she has entered the palace, it is better to stay in the palace and be a concubine. If she can marry the emperor, no one dares to say that Meng Wenyao did not marry well. The most important thing is that the emperor hardly favors the harem, and Meng Wenyao is under her nose. , she has plenty of time to work on it slowly.

"Since Lord Meng is worried that Miss Meng's second marriage will not go smoothly, how about entering the harem?"

She is a queen, and she still has great power to choose women for the emperor.

The emperor spoke up to stop her in time: "I have no intention of having a harem, so don't delay Miss Meng."

Mrs. Meng cried bitterly: "My poor daughter."

The queen was helpless, so she knelt down and begged the emperor: "My concubine has been confused today, causing Miss Meng to lose her good marriage. Please take pity on Taifu Meng's hard work and meritorious service, and accept Miss Meng into the palace so that she can have a decent place to go." "

The emperor was silent for a moment, why did he say: "Forget it, the queen has the final say. What position does the queen intend to give to Miss Meng?"

"There are many vacancies for the ninth concubine, so it is better to start from the concubine position now. When Miss Meng becomes pregnant in the future, it will not be too late to advance."

Meng Shangshu sneered. No one in the harem had been pregnant for many years. The queen's high-sounding statement was just to make Meng Wenyao die in her concubine position.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. My daughter is married for the second time and is not worthy of entering the palace to serve the Emperor. I will take her out of the palace now."

Meng Shangshu and his wife pretended to go into the inner room to take Meng Wenyao home. The queen quickly changed her words and said: "The concubine position is a bit wronged by Miss Meng. All the four concubines are vacant. I feel that Miss Meng is of good family background and has a reputation as a virtuous concubine. It’s good to have a title, what does the Emperor think?”

"It's up to the Queen to decide."

The emperor had an attitude of not caring about the matter. Mrs. Meng didn't care at all about the title given by the queen. Regardless of her mother's obstruction, she rushed forward to enter the inner room and take Meng Wenyao out of the palace.

The queen said anxiously: "Concubine, Miss Meng has outstanding virtues, so she should be the first of the four concubines. In time, Miss Meng will be pregnant, and I will request the emperor to make Miss Meng the imperial concubine."

This was already the highest position the queen was willing to give. She thought it would be okay if she was in a higher position now, and she would just find some fault to demote her in the future.

Mrs. Meng pretended that she was no match for her strength and cried in her arms. Meng Shangshu also wanted to hit the wall in pain, as if he was being forced by the queen.

"Mr. Meng is the Minister of Rites. I won't bother others with the canonization decree. Mr. Meng can draft the decree."

Meng Shangshu looked sad and staggered as he walked towards the yamen of the Ministry of Rites. When he reached the gate of the yamen, he could no longer hold on and burst into tears.

People in the yamen had never seen this scene before, and they all came to help, wondering if Taifu Meng, who was ill in bed, had passed away?

Several officials who had received Taifu Meng's care began to cry unconsciously, and soon those who did not cry were embarrassed. After a while, the wailing of the Rites Yamen was loud.

Only then did Meng Shangshu realize that there was something wrong with his crying, and began to explain to everyone why he was crying. After hearing this, everyone felt that Master Meng should indeed cry.

This incident spread from person to person, and by dinner time, the entire capital knew about Meng Wenyao's tragic experience and started talking about it one after another.

"Although this Miss Meng is from a noble family and is virtuous and virtuous, it's a pity that her life is so bad?"

Another person continued: "Who can say otherwise? I married into the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion and stayed a widow for six years. I finally waited until my husband came back and was granted peace and divorce by the Queen's decree."

"You still don't know the inside story. I heard that after Miss Meng was divorced, she couldn't stand the excitement and had a miscarriage on the spot."

"I know about this. I heard that the wife of Prince Wu'an pushed her to have an abortion. That wife has already been thrown into the sky prison."

Several people argued for a long time about how Meng Wenyao miscarried, and finally talked about Meng Wenyao's tragic fate.

"Don't you know? People say that after all hardship comes happiness, Miss Meng's hardships are worse than the last. I heard that in order to appease Shangshu Meng, the queen took the initiative to find a good husband for Miss Meng. Guess, this husband is looking for Who?"

"Who are you looking for?" Everyone stretched their heads to hear more clearly.

"The current emperor, I heard, has even been granted the title of noble concubine."

Everyone shook their heads in disbelief and said, "Are you lying? Can Shangshu Meng agree to let his daughter enter the palace?"

The person who spoke first swore: "My brother-in-law's second uncle's nephew's brother-in-law works as a clerk in the Ministry of Rites. He heard what Meng Shangshu said with his own ears. Meng Shangshu said that at that time, the queen knelt down and begged the emperor for permission to let Miss Meng enter. Palace, the emperor reluctantly agreed, the emperor agreed, Meng Shangshu would not dare to disagree even if he had ten heads."

Everyone suddenly realized that it turned out that Miss Meng was forced to enter the palace by the queen. Let's just say that the emperor had killed many concubines, and officials did not dare to send their daughters to the palace. Miss Meng's entry into the harem was probably a disaster. Even if she could escape from the emperor, the queen would probably not let her go.

The suffering deity, who was sympathized by the entire capital city, woke up faintly at this moment. Huazhi wiped her tears in surprise and said: "Miss, you finally woke up. Judging from your words, you should call me the imperial concubine now."
