After killing four concubines, the queen was sentenced to death and reborn

Zheng Xiyan curled her lips and sneered. Her eyes suddenly became cold and fierce as she looked at the two of them. "Is this palace blessed? If you are not blessed, it is not my fault."

"That's not what I meant." Shen Aoning explained quickly, looking extremely terrified.

"Okay! I'm tired, let's stop here today!" Zheng Xiyan said expressionlessly, her eyes as cold as ice, which made people feel afraid.

"I will take my leave."

After they left, Zheng Xiyan got up and went to the side hall. Xiao Chengji had already woken up by then, and Zheng Xiyan was teasing him with a rattle.

Shuang Ning walked in and said, "Your Majesty, you haven't seen their faces. Each one is uglier than the other."

"You're becoming more and more disrespectful." Zheng Xiyan glared at her.

"I know I was wrong, please forgive me, Your Majesty." Shuang Ning said in a low voice, pouting her lips.

"Your Majesty, I see that Concubine Xi and Concubine Shen are getting anxious." Biluo said in a deep voice.

Zheng Xiyan could naturally see that these two people were not inferior to anyone in terms of family background and appearance. It was one thing to see Murong Yue, who was of higher status than them, was pregnant, but now even those who were of lower status than them were pregnant one after another. She really had to be anxious.

"Let them worry for now! Right?" Zheng Xiyan smiled at her son and hugged Xiao Chengji in her arms.

Xiao Chengji babbled something, "Our Ji'er, you are such a good boy! Mother's good son."

Shoukang Palace

Xiao Xuanchen came to Shoukang Palace right after the morning court session.

Concubine Shen and Concubine Xu were both pregnant. The Queen Mother was overjoyed when she heard the news. "There are so many happy events in the palace. God is really blessing our Daliang."

"Your Majesty is right." Xiao Xuanchen also looked very happy. Concubine Shen and Concubine Xu were pregnant. He was really happy this time.

"By the way, the Ministry of Rites has set the date for Xuanhua's wedding. There have been quite a few happy events in the palace recently. It looks like something good is going to happen!" The Empress Dowager couldn't stop smiling.

"Thank you for your good wishes, mother." Xiao Xuanchen said with a smile.

The Queen Mother suddenly said, "You don't seem to like Xi Zhaoyi and Shen Zhaorong very much. I heard that you rarely summon these two to sleep with you."

"After all, they are of noble birth and have their own power behind them. You should meet more of them."

Xiao Xuanchen agreed, "Mother is right, I will remember it."

"But you have been summoning concubines of lower rank these days, and even promoted several talented people to beauties." The Queen Mother looked at him meaningfully, her son!

"They are of humble origins, so even if they give birth to princes in the future, they won't pose any threat and are easy to control." Xiao Xuanchen's eyes darkened and he said in a cold voice.

The Queen Mother guessed it immediately. Men always like to control women and also like those who are well-behaved and obedient. "I understand what you mean, but you cannot neglect the high-ranking concubines such as Xi Zhaoyi and Shen Zhaorong. And you must not neglect the Queen even more." The Queen Mother said with a serious expression.

"Yes, that's what my mother taught me, and I know it well." Xiao Xuanchen nodded slightly, which was considered as an agreement.

"Although Concubine Rong only gave birth to a princess, it stands to reason that she should be promoted. We should always take into consideration the Murong family behind her," suggested the Queen Mother.

"What your queen mother said is true. Concubine Shen and Concubine Xu are pregnant. I want to promote them together." Xiao Xuanchen now prefers the dragon fetus of Concubine Shen and Concubine Xu.

"That's fine, you decide!"

That night, Xiao Xuanchen came to Weiyang Palace. When the two of them were having dinner, Xiao Xuanchen mentioned this matter. Zheng Xiyan did not object after hearing it, "This is as it should be. Concubine Rong gave birth to a princess for Your Majesty, so she should be promoted."

"But above the position of concubine is the noble concubine. Would you feel unhappy?" Xiao Xuanchen looked at Zheng Xiyan with a look of scrutiny and examination.

Zheng Xiyan smiled and replied softly, "I am not unhappy. Whether it's Concubine Rong or Concubine Rong Gui, she can't surpass me."

"Of course, Yan'er, you are my queen. No matter how many women I have in the future, no one can surpass you." Xiao Xuanchen took her hand and said seriously.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Zheng Xiyan chuckled and looked at his affectionate expression. Now, his acting skills have become more and more superb.

Zheng Xiyan suggested, "What about Concubine Shen and Lady Xu, Your Majesty, what are your plans?"

"I want to promote Concubine Shen to Chongyuan, and Concubine Xu to Concubine Xu." Xiao Xuanchen said in a deep voice.

"I have no objection." Zheng Xiyan agreed with a smile.

"Then let's arrange it this way!"

"I obey your command. I will order the Eunuch Bureau to handle it as soon as possible."

"Ah."

Three days later, Xiao Xuanchen issued the imperial edict.

Jinhua Palace

Murong Yue learned that she had become Concubine Rong, but she was not happy at all.

Die Yun brought the palace maids to congratulate, "Congratulations to Concubine Rong, congratulations to Concubine Rong."

Murong Yue felt very tired and said lazily, "Everyone, leave!"

"Yes."

Die Yun did not leave, but stayed beside her and asked, "Why is the queen not happy at all?"

"What is there to be happy about? His Majesty promoted me to the rank of Imperial Concubine only for my father's sake." Murong Yue was very clear about this. If she had given birth to a prince and been named Imperial Concubine, she would naturally be happy, but now she gave birth to a princess.

"Why do you say that, Your Majesty? You gave birth to His Majesty's eldest daughter."

After giving birth to Princess Changle, Murong Yue finally realized that Xiao Xuanchen had no feelings for her at all.

Maybe in his heart, I am not even as good as Shen Chongyuan.

"I'm tired, you can leave too! I want to sleep for a while." Murong Yue lay down on the bed and closed her eyes.

"Yes!"

Yong'an Palace

Xi Muyao and Shen Aoning were even more panicked. Shen Aoning said, "Now it's Shen Chongyuan and Xu Jieyu. If they give birth to a prince, they will surpass us. Sister, what should we do?"

"It's no use being anxious. How can a child come out of thin air?" Xi Muyao looked calm, but she was indeed a little panicked.

"Your Majesty will not always fail to summon us. No matter what, we have to consider the Xi family and the Shen family. We will eventually have a child." Xi Muyao said calmly.

Shen Aoning frowned, looking unhappy, "How could His Majesty like them? That Shen Lianyi, what's so good about her?"

"Alright! She's pregnant now, what else can we do? Are you going to make her have a miscarriage?" Xi Muyao scolded.

Xi Muyao's words made Shen Aoning sober up instantly. She had always been timid, so naturally she didn't have the courage to do that.

"Can you change your temper? Can't you stay calm when things go wrong?"

Shen Aoning calmed down and said, "I understand."

Xi Muyao patted her hands and said, "Don't worry! It will happen. There will always be a child."

"Ah."

Xi Muyao and Shen Aoning grew up together. They have a relationship as close as sisters. Their mothers are close friends and their two families are old friends. In this palace, they are the only people who can rely on each other.

Princess Shion

The people from the Jingshifang came in, and the eunuch in front of the emperor said, "Your Majesty, it's time to turn over the cards."

Xiao Xuanchen took a quick glance and his eyes fell on Shen Zhaorong's green card, "Let's go with Shen Zhaorong!"

"I will prepare it now."

"Ah."

"Send someone to Yong'an Palace and tell them that I will go there for breakfast tomorrow morning." Xiao Xuanchen ordered again.

"The slave obeys."

The eunuch in front of the emperor was puzzled. Why did His Majesty suddenly think of these two people?
