Spoiling my mistress and swallowing my dowry? After my rebirth, I changed my marriage to a powerful

"Is Zhaozhao still in the palace?" When Concubine Xi heard that Xie Zhaozhao had come to the palace to see Emperor Hui, she said while feeding Jiaofeng in the corridor, "She is almost seven months pregnant, right?"

Liuli smiled and said, "It should be seven months old. It looks very heavy."

"I don't know what she wants to talk to Your Majesty about. It's been almost a month since Lord Gu left, right? I don't know what's going on at the front line."

"It should all go well. His Majesty has praised the old lady highly. This time, the old lady will lead the expedition against the Wei family. The old lady donated all her family assets to the court."

"Alas, she was worried that Elder Gu might not have enough food and fodder at the front. This silly child, she donated all of it..."

She didn't say anything else. She naturally hoped to win this battle.

The Wei family must lose.

"Your Majesty, if the Wei family is defeated, the Queen's body will never be able to enter the imperial mausoleum." Liuli said angrily, "She has killed your Majesty so many times."

Every time the child is lost, it must be Wei Yingzi's fault.

"Yes, Wei must die." Concubine Xi fed Jiaofeng another small spoonful of shelled millet and said slowly, "No one doesn't hate Wei."

Liuli took the small millet bowl, and Concubine Xi wiped her hands and said, "Go and call Concubine De to talk to her later."

Liuli fed Jiaofeng a few bites, cleaned the cage, and hurried to invite Concubine De.

Concubine De is Prince Qi's mother.

Ever since Prince Qi was made idiot by someone, Concubine De has lost all her energy.

When Concubine De came to Xingning Palace, Concubine Xi asked someone to prepare tea and snacks.

Seeing that Concubine De was not in high spirits, she asked Liuli to quickly give her a seat and asked worriedly, "Is Jinghong still the same?"

"Oh, yes, it's the same as before, there is no improvement." Concubine De's hair was gray and her cheeks were seriously wrinkled. She looked more than ten years older than Concubine Xi.

"Let's take good care of him. I hope that this time we can return victorious from the Northwest Expedition to Wei and avenge King Qi."

When the Wei family was mentioned, Concubine De gnashed her teeth and said, "If the Wei family is wiped out this time, I will definitely ask my brother to chop off Wei Jingzhong's flesh and blood, and I will eat two pounds of his flesh alive."

Defei's father and brother were both civil servants. Although they did not go to the battlefield to fight, they firmly supported the destruction of the Wei family and gave the green light to military supplies and handled special matters specially.

Concubine Xi's eyes also turned red: "Who doesn't hate the Wei family? They have harmed so many people!"

But De Fei suddenly smiled and said, "I don't necessarily hate them all. I see that Li Fei is wavering."

"She?" Concubine Xi said in surprise, "A few days ago, the Imperial Palace saw that she was still gritting her teeth at Wei, saying that it was a good thing that the Sixth Prince was not allowed to move around the Central Palace more often, otherwise he would have been killed by the Queen long ago!"

Concubine De shook her head and said, "Your Highness, you have been deceived by her. She was originally just a little palace maid, and her family was just a small official of the seventh rank. She licked Wei's heels every day, and that's why Wei Yingzi arranged her to sleep on the dragon bed."

Concubine Xi was surprised and said, "She is actually Wei Yingzi's woman? I didn't know anything about it."

"Your Majesty, you have a holy heart. How could you have thought of the methods of these ants? She originally relied on Wei Yingzi, thinking that the Sixth Prince could become the Crown Prince's right-hand man. Now that the Wei family has fallen, she immediately switched sides to your side. Isn't it because she wanted you to say good things to His Majesty?"

Concubine Xi was silent for a while, and Concubine De continued to say, "She wishes for it, but I will definitely not let her have her way."

"I was deceived!" Concubine Xi said with some disappointment, "I told Your Majesty yesterday that Jinghui has made great progress in his studies."

"Your Highness, how can you praise him to His Majesty? He is not a good guy, a wolf cub. He has a mother who will definitely support Concubine Li. Your Highness will definitely regret it in the future."

Seeing that Concubine De was anxious, Concubine Xi was also a little annoyed: "I didn't think it through enough."

There are still four or five healthy princes. The oldest is Jingyi, who is now fifteen years old.

"How is Jingyi? His mother, Concubine Hui, is relatively honest." Concubine Xi said, "The Crown Prince, Prince Qi, and Prince Jin are all unsuccessful. I wonder which prince will catch your majesty's eye in the end."

She sighed, and Concubine De could completely understand.

Concubine Xi had no children, so who would she rely on for her affairs before and after her death? She must support a prince.

"Your Highness, I have a bold idea. If I say something wrong, Your Highness, just slap me on the mouth and don't tell anyone, okay?"

"Just tell me. If it doesn't sound right, I'll just pretend you never said it."

"I would like to recommend Prince Qi's eldest son, Huan'er, who is thirteen years old this year. To be honest, Huan'er is much better than those princes in terms of knowledge and means."

Defei's son, Prince Qi, was dumbfounded, so Defei pushed her grandson.

Concubine Xi frowned and said, "That's not right. Your Majesty already has four sons, so how can you appoint a crown prince? Don't mention this matter again."

De Fei was embarrassed and quickly took back her words, kneeling and saying, "I have overstepped my bounds, please punish me, Your Majesty."

Concubine Xi helped her up and said, "Why are you kneeling? I didn't say you were wrong. There are four princes, so it's really not the turn of the emperor's grandson, but I didn't say it's completely impossible."

Concubine De spoke to Concubine Xi for a while and was about to leave.

Before leaving, Concubine Xi said, "When you have time, ask Zhou Huan to come over and play, and I'll take a look too. These kids are already in their teens, and I've barely seen them."

Concubine De was very happy.

Watching Concubine De leave, Concubine Xi curled up the corners of her lips in a mocking arc.

The Sixth Prince Zhou Jinghui has a relationship with Wei? How come she doesn't know?

Concubine De was really good at lying. Just because Prince Qi had no hope, she wanted to drag the other princes into the water. Her goal was actually to push Zhou Huan to the position of Crown Prince.

The war in the north was like a mountain. Emperor Hui had not had a good night's sleep since the army set out.

The Dongli people were going to take advantage of the natural disaster to invade Daqian, and it was the merchant ship cooperating with Xie Zhaozhao and Zhou Lingyin that discovered it. He believed the authenticity of the news.

But we cannot do it in a high-profile manner and cannot cause panic among the people. Even if we go to provide support, we must do it quietly.

Therefore, Emperor Hui was particularly moved when Zhou Lingyin and Xie Zhaozhao provided disaster relief and food support to the border troops without disturbing the court or the local authorities.

He summoned ministers including Xie Anfeng and Liu Ge Lao for secret discussions several times.

Unlike previous disaster relief efforts, this time, in order to cooperate with the court in "suppressing the news of the natural disaster to avoid causing panic", Xie Zhaozhao and Zhou Lingyin did not raise supplies from the outside world, but simply used their own belongings to provide relief.

Five days later, Zhou Lingyin raised supplies through some channels and went to the palace to report to Emperor Hui alone.

Emperor Hui had only been talking to him for a few minutes when he saw Hua Zisheng coming in in a panic.

His face looked extremely ugly. Emperor Hui knew that something urgent had happened, so he gently instructed Zhou Lingyin and asked Hua Zisheng to send him out of the palace.

After Zhou Lingyin left, Hua Zisheng knelt down and cried as he reported the bad news: "Your Majesty, Prince Jingyi, Prince Jinghui, and Prince Jingzhen are all gone..."

It is said that Jingyi, Jinghui and Jingzhen, three princes over ten years old, agreed to go to the Huguo Temple to pray for Daqian. Everything went smoothly along the way, but unexpectedly, when they were going up the mountain, their horses got startled.

As the guards were trying to subdue the horses, hundreds of masked masters pounced on the three princes.

The prince also had more than a hundred guards, all of them were experts, but they were helpless against the enemy who outnumbered them. They fought desperately but were ultimately defeated. The enemy seemed to be extremely familiar with them, and even their signals were cut off.

Three princes and more than a hundred guards died.

There were more than a hundred bodies left behind by the enemy, most of which had no markings. Only one body had a number on the collar, which was the same as the number of Wei's assassins.

Lost three princes at once!

Emperor Hui, who had been on the throne for thirty-three years, lost his composure for the first time and his ears began to buzz.

The scene in front of his eyes gradually turned white, and his ears fell into endless silence. "Puff" a mouthful of blood spurted out, and the man fell straight backwards.
