After killing four concubines, the queen was sentenced to death and reborn
Chapter 138: Unlocking Murong Yue's Foot
"Yes!" Zheng Xiyan really envied Xuanhua. Helian Cheng was a rare talent. How many girls would envy being able to marry a husband like him.
The Empress Dowager suddenly asked, "Has the Emperor been doting on Concubine Zhao these days?"
Zheng Xiyan smiled, without any change on her face, "Yes! Talented Lady Zhao has a gentle temperament and is very much loved by His Majesty."
"We can't go on like this. As the queen, you should also persuade the emperor." The queen mother said in a deep voice. In the harem, the most taboo thing is to favor only one person.
"Your son will remember this and will definitely advise Your Majesty." Zheng Xiyan responded with a smile.
"By the way, is Yong'an Palace still peaceful?"
Zheng Xiyan replied: "They are quite well behaved. Compared with the one in Jinhua Palace, Concubine Chen and Concubine Shu are quite well behaved."
"Noble Concubine Rong?" The Empress Dowager frowned, very dissatisfied.
"After being confined to her room, Concubine Rong often yelled and screamed in the palace. She has been better in recent days," said Zheng Xiyan.
"The Emperor came to Shoukang Palace earlier to pay his respects to me. Speaking of Concubine Rong, it's time to lift her house arrest," said the Empress Dowager.
Zheng Xiyan's expression changed slightly, and she immediately understood that she was the only one in charge of the harem now. Xiao Xuanchen naturally did not want to see this situation, and it was only a matter of time before Murong Yue was released from the ban.
"Since Your Majesty is interested, I will not say anything." Zheng Xiyan would not object because there was really no need.
The Empress Dowager explained to her, "The Emperor has his own considerations. As the Empress, you should be considerate of the Emperor."
"Yes, mother, I understand everything." Zheng Xiyan nodded slightly and responded with a smile.
After Zheng Xiyan left Shoukang Palace, Shuang Ning couldn't help but ask, "Your Majesty, what do you mean by lifting the confinement of Concubine Rong at this time?"
Zheng Xiyan sneered, "What do you mean? You don't want to see me dominate alone. The release of Concubine Rong's house arrest is just to contain me."
"Why is your Majesty like this?" Shuang Ning said angrily.
"Originally, Concubine Rong didn't commit an unforgivable crime. His Majesty had confined her before, but he never said that he would not let her leave Jinhua Palace. Now that Concubine Chen and Concubine Shu are under house arrest, and the three high-ranking concubines in the harem are also under house arrest, it will not be good for our reputation if the news gets out. Now is the best time to release Concubine Rong."
"Let's go to the Zichen Palace." Zheng Xiyan suddenly said.
"Yes!"
Princess Shion
When the eunuch in front of the emperor saw the queen coming, he hurriedly went to greet her with a smile, "Your servant greets the queen, may the queen be blessed with good health."
"No need to be so polite, sir." Zheng Xiyan said politely.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The eunuch replied with a smile.
"Is your Majesty busy? I have something to discuss with your Majesty. Please let the eunuch pass it on."
"Her Majesty, wait a moment."
The eunuch in front of the emperor walked into the Purple Palace and said, "Your Majesty, the Empress is outside asking for an audience."
"Why is the queen here?"
"The Queen said she has something important to discuss with Your Majesty."
Xiao Xuanchen raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice: "Let the queen come in!"
"Yes!"
Zheng Xiyan walked in alone, "Your Majesty, I respectfully wish you the best of health."
"You are pregnant, so there is no need to be so polite." Xiao Xuanchen did not stand up, his mind was still on the memorial.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Why are you here at this hour?"
Zheng Xiyan said, "Your Majesty, I just came from Shoukang Palace and heard from my mother that Your Majesty intentionally untied Concubine Rong's feet?"
Hearing this, Xiao Xuanchen put down the memorial in his hand, looked up at her, frowned slightly, and asked: "Does the Queen disagree?"
"How could that be? Concubine Rong has been under house arrest for some time, and it is indeed time to untie her. Now that the three high-ranking concubines in the harem are all under house arrest, there will inevitably be some rumors outside. Untying Concubine Rong's feet at this time can also reduce the rumors." Zheng Xiyan pretended to be considerate and generous.
Xiao Xuanchen thought she would object, but he was wrong about her. "What the Queen said is very true. Let's do it this way!"
"Yes! Then Changle..." Zheng Xiyan looked at him subtly. If Changle had been kept in Shoukang Palace all the time, the possibility of Murong Yue's complete turnaround would be even smaller.
After Xiao Xuanchen pondered for a moment, he said, "Changle should stay in Shoukang Palace and let Queen Mother raise her. Concubine Rong is allowed to visit Shoukang Palace from time to time."
Zheng Xiyan raised the corner of her mouth slightly, "I understand."
"One more thing."
"Queen, please feel free to speak." Xiao Xuanchen said in a deep voice.
"Your Majesty has been favoring Concubine Zhao these days, and the sisters in the harem have some complaints. I beg Your Majesty to treat the harem equally. Your Majesty, what do you think?" Zheng Xiyan said with a smile. She knew that Xiao Xuanchen would definitely be unhappy to hear these words, but she had said what she should say. As for whether he listened or not, it had nothing to do with her.
Xiao Xuanchen's face was gloomy and he was very dissatisfied with her, but considering that she was pregnant, he said, "I know, I will keep it in mind."
"Then I will return to the palace first. I will take my leave."
"Ah."
Xiao Xuanchen continued to pick up the memorial and lowered his head.
Coming out of the Purple Palace, Zheng Xiyan sat on the phoenix carriage with a calm look on her face.
After Zheng Xiyan left, Xiao Xuanchen said, "Someone come."
The eunuch in front of the emperor hurried in, "Your Majesty!"
"You go to Jinhua Palace in person. From today on, untie Concubine Rong's feet and allow her to go to Shoukang Palace to visit Changle." Xiao Xuanchen ordered.
"The slave obeys the order."
Jinhua Palace
Murong Yue was sitting in the yard. She was a little surprised when she saw the gate of Jinhua Palace open.
Until she saw the eunuch in front of the emperor walk in, she was shocked and said, "Dieyun, I am not seeing things!"
"Your Majesty, you are not mistaken, it is the eunuch in front of the emperor." Die Meng replied happily.
The eunuch in front of the emperor stepped forward and congratulated her, "Congratulations, Imperial Concubine. His Majesty has issued an edict to lift your house arrest and allow you to visit Princess Changle in Shoukang Palace."
Murong Yue stood up and asked, "Are you serious? Your Majesty really untied my feet?"
"It is absolutely true, Your Majesty."
But the next second, she said: "Then Changle..."
"My Lady, your Majesty has said that it is better for Princess Changle to stay in Shoukang Palace. My Lady can visit Princess Changle anytime."
"What? I am Changle's biological mother..." Murong Yue became excited.
Diemeng quickly pulled her arm and shook her head at her, "My Lady!"
"My Lady, please listen to my advice. His Majesty finally released you from your confinement. Princess Changle is being raised by the Empress Dowager. It is a blessing for the princess. The princess is His Majesty's eldest daughter, and she is being taught by the Empress Dowager herself. This is something that others cannot even ask for!"
Although Murong Yue was unwilling, she had no choice but to obey now, "Yes, what you said is right, Your Majesty. Thank you very much."
"Then I will take my leave first!" The eunuch in front of the emperor bowed and left.
Die Yun stepped forward to help her up and said, "My Lady, the princess is being raised by the Queen Mother, so her status is even more noble. The Queen Mother will also find a good marriage for the princess in the future. This is a good thing!"
"I know everything, but I can't bear to give up Changle." After all, Changle is her biological daughter. She knows she is wrong, she really knows she is wrong. She shouldn't use Changle to compete for favors. She really knows she is wrong.
"My lady..."
