Wang Zixin shuddered, and then he belatedly realized what a huge clue his words had left.

"Your Majesty, I have no intention of doing this! Queen, the Queen is the master of the middle palace. She is wise, sensible, graceful and magnanimous. It is reasonable for the Emperor to choose his concubine. I think the Queen will never be sad because of this matter. !”

"Then what Wang Aiqing means is that in your heart, the lady in your family is neither moral nor sensible, and is also mean and mean-spirited?"

"Wei Chen..."

"If that's the case, how about I order to make the decision for you, let the two of you get together and separate, and then choose another husband for your wife, so that you can live happily together?"

"It's necessary!" Wang Zixin was completely anxious.

He doesn't want to reconcile with his wife, and he also talks about choosing another husband for her. How can this be done?

"Why not? Wang Aiqing is so concerned about my housework, so naturally I will repay him with favors." Xiao Jinzhi continued to speak in a loud voice, "Come here and pass on my orders..."

"Your Majesty, Wei Chen is wrong, Wei Chen is wrong!" Wang Zixin hurriedly kowtowed and admitted his mistake, "Wei Chen did not consider the matter of choosing the concubine improperly, please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

Xiao Jinzhi's eyes fell on Wang Zixin, with a bit of ridicule, "Ai Qing is just caring about my heir, what's wrong with that?"

Wang Zixin felt a chill running down his spine, and he couldn't help but tremble slightly as he lay on the ground, "Your Majesty, I really realized my mistake. Please forgive me!"

Xiao Jinzhi looked away and looked at the other courtiers standing in the Jinluan Hall, "Do you think Wang Aiqing is wrong?"

The officials stared at each other, and for a moment no one dared to step forward and speak rashly.

Although they didn't think Wang Zixin was at fault, the emperor's way of responding just now was too damaging...

If they stand up and help now, what if the emperor orders them to take in dozens of concubines?

In the end, Feng Hanyi frowned, looked at this situation, and finally spoke.

"Your Majesty, I know that you have deep feelings for the Queen, but Mr. Wang also has good intentions, so please spare him."

"Yes, yes, Lord Feng is right. Please forgive me, Lord Wang."

After hearing that Feng Hanyi had taken the lead, some officials dared to agree.

"Hmph." Xiao Jinzhi chuckled, "That's all, let's forget it this time. Of course, if Wang Aiqing and other dear friends want to persuade me again, they can just say so. I... must have some discussions with you. quantity."

Listening to the smile and cold words, some of the courtiers couldn't help but shuddered and buried their heads lower.

As the morning court dispersed, Wang Zixin, who was already covered in cold sweat, stumbled up from the ground and walked to Liu Changhan.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, what I just said was really for the good of the Emperor, but I didn't expect that the Emperor would..."

Liu Changhan glanced at Wang Zixin, "I certainly know that you are doing it for the sake of the country and the government, but you are a little too hasty. Now the emperor and the empress are deeply affectionate and affectionate. It is not the right time to choose a concubine at this time."

"Prime Minister, do you mean to wait a little longer?" an official next to him said.

When Wang Zixin heard this, he couldn't help but flinch again. He didn't dare to mention it again, no matter how much time he waited, he didn't dare to mention it again.

"Think about it again, maybe this matter... shouldn't start from the emperor's side." Liu Changhan sighed, his eyebrows deep.

In the afternoon of the second day, Chu Huanyan was basking in the sun in the imperial garden when she received a report that Liu Zhaoran was asking to see him.

After not seeing each other for a while, when the palace servants brought Liu Zhaoran over, Chu Huanyan took a closer look and found that everything was as usual, and his complexion looked a bit better than before.

"I've met the Queen."

Liu Zhaoran was about to kneel down to salute, but Chu Huanyan raised her hand to stop him.

"Sit down, it doesn't have to be like this."

Liu Zhaoran hesitated for a moment, then smiled and thanked him, and sat down aside.

"Is the Queen feeling a little unwell lately?" Looking at Chu Huanyan's face, Liu Zhaoran was stunned for a moment. Her complexion was not very good, and she seemed to be thinner than before.

"It's nothing serious, I'm just a little tired from traveling a while ago." Chu Huanyan said.

During this period, Shen Chi had been recuperating her body, and it was quite effective. However, after discussing the pregnancy with Xiao Jinzhi, she decided to hide it first.

Although if the courtiers knew that she was pregnant, they might not be as anxious as they were these days, hoping that Xiao Jinzhi could choose concubines to fill the harem, but if the child was not saved, I am afraid that the courtiers would It will only get worse.

"It's fine if nothing happens." Liu Zhaoran breathed a sigh of relief, and then said with a smile, "I think the Queen must have known about what happened earlier, right?"

"Are you talking about the thirty concubines?" Chu Huanyan asked.

Liu Zhaoran nodded with a smile, "Yes, empress, you don't know that when Pei Zhaoqing heard the news, he laughed so hard that he even fell off his chair. He kept saying that the emperor was really hurt."

After saying that, Liu Zhaoran suddenly froze for a moment, realized that he had made a mistake, and quickly stood up, "The Queen, please forgive me, I am a minister..."

"Sit down!" Chu Huanyan smiled and stretched out her hand, pulling Liu Zhaoran to sit down. "I also feel that it is quite embarrassing. The two of us are just talking. You don't have to be so formal."

"Okay." Liu Zhaoran was relieved and sat down again. When he spoke again, he was more relaxed and casual than before, "When my father told me the news after he returned home, I almost couldn't hold it back. Although my father let me I entered the palace today to persuade the Queen, but I really feel envious of the Queen. The fact that the Emperor can do this just shows how deeply he loves you."

Chu Huanyan naturally understood that Liu Zhaoran's entry into the palace at this time was most likely Liu Changhan's idea, but she also believed that Liu Zhaoran would not really persuade her as Liu Changhan expected.

"I understand Xiao Jinzhi's intention, but after yesterday's incident, I'm afraid those rumors and discussions will escalate to a higher level. As for the courtiers, although they were suppressed for a while, if they want to completely give up on choosing a concubine, I'm afraid it's not enough."

Completely giving up the idea of ​​choosing a concubine... Liu Zhaoran looked at Chu Huanyan. Although the relationship between the emperor and the empress was very deep, after all, he was the emperor. Even if the emperor wanted to be together for the rest of his life, the government and the overall situation were afraid. Nor will it be allowed.

She always felt that Chu Huanyan was sane and rational, but the meaning of these words...

Seeing Liu Zhaoran's hesitant expression, Chu Huanyan smiled, looked at the other person and asked, "Do you think I am wishful thinking?"
