After rebirth, the empress was spoiled by the emperor's uncle like a little girl

After Xuanyuan Fengran walked away, A Bao walked towards Concubine Wen holding an umbrella.

Concubine Wen looked at her expressionlessly, then turned around and, supported by Aunt Rong, walked into the inner hall of the East Palace.

The charcoal brazier was burning, bringing warmth.

Hongxiu brought the hand warmer just in time. Abao wrapped himself tightly in the fox fur and leaned against the soft couch, and finally he recovered.

She was nervous and kept stealing glances at Concubine Wen's expression.

But Imperial Concubine Wen had a calm expression on her face. She was flipping through the menu for the palace banquet handed to her by the chief imperial chef, and occasionally writing a few notes.

The strong wind and blizzard outside the window made the window shutters rattle, but the area around the soft couch in the inner hall was surprisingly quiet.

Ah Bao ate half a plate of melon seeds, drank a cup of hawthorn, white fungus and lotus seed soup that Xuanyuan Fengran had asked Hongxiu to warm on the fire early in the morning, and ate two pieces of mung bean cake...

When she was about to attack the sour plums, Concubine Wen finally lost her patience and slammed the tea table.

"Stop eating! Who prepared these things for you?!"

Ah Bao laughed, "..."

Concubine Wen held her forehead in frustration, "Is King Feng Ran raising pigs?"

Pretending not to understand, Po said innocently, "It's very likely! She's the apple of the Emperor's eye!"

Concubine Wen was so angry that her face turned blue: "You! I told you to stay away from King Feng Ran! Where did you hear that?!"

A Bao approached Concubine Wen in a coquettish manner, "Mother, although Uncle Feng Ran handed over the Tiger Talisman, the victories in the past were not won by the Tiger Talisman, but by Uncle Feng Ran."

No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Concubine Wen said calmly: "What do you want to say?"

A Bao raised his hand and signaled Hong Xiu.

Hongxiu understood and immediately served the hawthorn, tremella and lotus seed soup.

Ah Bao took it and brought it to Concubine Wen, "It's still warm. Mother, please try it and see how it tastes. I'll explain it to you while you taste it."

Concubine Wen, who was always willing to negotiate, looked at the bowl of lotus seed soup sent by Xuanyuan Fengran and refused it.

"Speak up if you have something to say."

Ah Bao held the porcelain cup in his hand and looked up nervously, "Mother, do you still remember?"

"My eldest brother's rebellion was suppressed by my uncle Feng Ran. My third brother's treason was suppressed by my uncle Feng Ran."

"For hundreds of years, the four borders of Daqi have not been completely stable. In the past ten years, there have been frequent wars on the borders, and every time there is a war, hundreds of thousands of refugees are displaced."

After saying this, A Bao looked serious and stared at Concubine Wen. "Since Daqi has the invincible King Feng Ran, why don't you enrich the national treasury, prepare the troops, and slowly make plans so that there will be no more wars on the border of Daqi, once and for all?"

Concubine Wen seemed to be thinking about something, and asked, "We must smite the foreign invaders in the four borders and secure the territory of Daqi forever."

"Abao, if you succeed in ascending the throne, is this what you really want to do?"

A Bao nodded silently.

In her previous life, she had sworn a blood oath in front of the tablets of the Xuanyuan clan's ancestors.

Unfortunately, she was blinded by Pei Guichen's so-called affection in her previous life, and ignored Pei Guichen's ambition. As a result, she died tragically at the hands of Pei Guichen before she could fulfill her vow.

In the silent inner hall, Abao once again presented the hawthorn, tremella and lotus seed soup in his hand.

This time, Concubine Wen was silent for a long time and then accepted it.

Concubine Wen stirred the soup with a silver spoon and asked, "Do you really just want to use King Feng Ran to pacify the four borders, and nothing else?"

I also wanted to marry him.

A Bao, who had other plans, "..."

But when she thought about pacifying the four borders, it was indeed an extremely important move for her.

She nodded confidently again, "Yes."

Concubine Wen was skeptical, but did not pursue the matter further.

Changing the subject, Concubine Wen asked, "Did Wuai mention the nephew from Concubine Li Jia's family?"

"Even if Brother Xie didn't mention it, everyone in the imperial court knows that Li Si has become a eunuch." A Bao was puzzled, "But, mother, why did you suddenly mention it?"

Concubine Wen had a complicated look on her face. "I heard that Li Si was castrated because he bullied men and women. Later, Li Si's case involved other dirty deeds of the Li family. Your father was furious and wanted to severely punish the Li family, but because of Concubine Li Jia, the matter was shelved."

A Bao knew that Concubine Li Jia was in favor.

But she didn't expect that the old emperor, who always hated the families of court officials who abused their power to bully others and do evil, would let the Li family go just because of Concubine Li Jia.

On second thought, Concubine Wen never cared about which concubine was favored in the harem.

There was no reason for Concubine Li Jia to ask Concubine Wen to come to her specifically to mention it.

Thinking of this, A Bao asked, "Mother, is there anything else Concubine Li Jia wants to say?"
