Reborn to marry the emperor, I just want to confuse the emperor and seize the throne

Dawn Palace

As soon as she came back, Nanny Wang immediately asked someone to get some hot water.

Jiang Fenghua leaned back on the couch, and she felt that her feet were still her feet, her legs were still her legs, and she felt relaxed. She had been hiding in her sleeves the thing given to her by the late emperor.

At this moment, she fell into deep thought. She never expected that she would receive so much favor from her father in this life. The positions of Crown Princess and Queen were conferred by him personally.

She thought that something so far away from her was obtained so easily. Could it be that because of the instructions given to her by the late emperor, he repaid her by conferring her the title of empress of the new emperor?

If she were to ask herself, since her rebirth, in addition to seeking revenge on the Su family and Su Tingwan, she has indeed been helping Xie Shang establish his authority. She knows what kind of royal daughter-in-law the royal family needs, what kind of princess the prince needs, and she can even weigh the harem. She claims to have been a competent royal daughter-in-law, and perhaps the late emperor also saw these advantages of hers.

He believed that she could be a good queen mother of the new generation of the Zhou Dynasty, so he made a will. No matter what, without Su Tingwan in this life and without the powerful Su family, it was only natural for her to take the throne.

Everything is moving in a good direction, and the Jiang family's glory is just beginning.

"Your Majesty, soak your feet first and wash your face. I will give you a massage to loosen up your muscles and bones. Your Majesty's hard work has not been in vain."

Although the formal enthronement ceremony has not yet been held, the late emperor left a will, and Nanny Wang can now change her address to "Empress Her Majesty". All that is missing is a ceremony.

The weather was getting colder, but her bedroom was very warm. Jiang Fenghua didn't feel cold even after taking off her shoes, socks and outer robe.

She put her feet in the hot water and felt her whole body warm up.

She said, "Luckily, I have Nanny Wang to help me, otherwise I would be really overwhelmed."

"These are what we servants should do. Your Majesty is in poor health now, so we servants should naturally be more thoughtful." She was the nanny who taught etiquette to the Empress Dowager, so she should naturally be clear about the matters of national mourning.

At this time, Lian Ye also brought in her meal, "Your Majesty, you must be hungry. I have made some porridge for you. Have some to fill your stomach first."

Jiang Fenghua saw that it was cooked with fish meat, "Please change it to vegetarian during my father's funeral!"

"But the queen still has a little prince in her belly, and now is the period when she needs nutrition."

Nanny Wang also said softly, "Although it is a national mourning, the princes and princesses have several filial sons. Your Majesty's situation is special. For the sake of the royal heir, I believe that the late emperor will not blame your Majesty."

"Go and prepare some vegetarian food! I trust Lian Ye's cooking skills." Jiang Fenghua was indeed hungry, but the late emperor had been very kind to her, and she should express her most basic filial piety sincerely. Fasting during this period was her last bit of filial piety.

Lian Ye took the porridge away, and Jiang Fenghua instructed again, "During this period of time, Nanny Wang must remind the young ladies of the Eastern Palace to be careful in what they say and do. If anyone dares to do something shameless and against filial piety during this period of time, this palace will punish them severely."

The ladies in the Eastern Palace were also very busy. Their plain clothes had already been prepared. Without waiting for Nanny Wang to urge them to do so, the ladies naturally did not dare to dress fancy.

Jiang Fenghua slept for a while after dinner.

At midnight, the Third Princess suddenly arrived at the Dawn Palace. "This Princess has something to ask the Queen. Madam Wang, please be flexible."

In the past month, all the princesses lived in the palace and often came to the Dawn Palace. Nanny Wang knew that the Third Princess was close to the Queen, so she didn't want to offend her. "Please wait a moment, Third Princess. I will go and report to the Queen."

Jiang Fenghua was woken up, got up and put on plain clothes before coming out of the inner hall. She smiled and said, "Why are you here at this hour, sister-in-law? Did something happen?"

The Third Princess made a gesture to bow to Jiang Fenghua, "I pay my respects to Her Majesty the Queen, may Her Majesty be blessed with good health."

Jiang Fenghua chuckled, "Third sister-in-law is teasing me too. The enthronement ceremony hasn't even taken place yet."

"It doesn't matter whether it is held or not. Now the whole palace and the whole court already know that the Crown Princess has appointed the new Emperor and Empress." She held Jiang Fenghua's hand and said affectionately, "From the first time I saw you, I knew that you would be extremely rich and noble in the future."

Jiang Fenghua said, "Third sister-in-law, please feel free to tell me what you want to say. As long as Fenghua can do it, I will do my best."

The Third Princess' eyes suddenly turned red. "Everyone says I'm lucky. I married a considerate man like the Third Prince, and I have many children and a long life. But in fact, only I know the bitterness behind me. I never tell anyone about the bad things in my family, but Fenghua, I really have no choice."

Jiang Fenghua listened quietly. Knowing that she was the queen, he began to ask for help. She remained calm and said, "Third sister-in-law has been working hard to manage the Third Prince's Mansion. Everyone envies the Third Prince for marrying such a virtuous and capable woman like the Third Sister-in-law to lead the family. It is the Third Prince's blessing."

"What blessing? You also know that he has a foot disease. Although he is a prince, he will be laughed at outside and he is idle in the government office. In fact, life in the Third Prince's Mansion is not easy." The Third Princess said slowly.

After hearing this, Jiang Fenghua understood that after the national mourning, the new emperor would grant fiefs to the princes after he ascended the throne. In her previous life, she did not have the power and ability to participate in these royal affairs, so now that she became the queen in this life, the Third Prince's wife wanted her to whisper in Xie Shang's ear and grant the Third Prince a better fiefdom for his retirement.

The Third Prince was born with a disability, and was originally an unlucky person. He was destined to have no chance of becoming the Crown Prince since he was born, so he just gave in. After all, he was a prince, and when he left the palace to set up his own residence, he was granted land and property, and his status was noble. He would not starve to death with these things, and the Third Princess was capable, so the Third Prince's Mansion was still doing well in Kyoto. But the Third Princess still had to consider her children, and could not just live in such a miserable state.

You have to earn fame and honor in the future, so the quality of your fiefdom is of vital importance to you princes.

I only heard the Third Prince's Consort said, "Fenghua, can you please go and talk to the Emperor and arrange for the Third Prince's fiefdom to be in Yangzhou, which is close to my mother's home."

Yangzhou is rich, so the Third Princess wants to go to Yangzhou!

Jiang Fenghua said, "The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics. This is the rule passed down by Emperor Shengzu. I may have to disappoint my third sister-in-law." Besides, Xie Shang may not necessarily grant fiefs to the princes according to the ancestral system.

The Third Princess looked unhappy, and said with a forced smile, "I have overstepped the boundaries." She had originally wanted her niece from her natal family to enter the palace for selection, and she also wanted Jiang Fenghua to make some concessions.

She didn't know how to start.

At this time, the sound of a death knell was heard outside. Jiang Fenghua said, "This is not the time to discuss state affairs. We are just royal daughters-in-law. Other things should be handled by men. The blessing of the third sister-in-law is also in the future."

The Third Princess said, "Yes, Fenghua is right. It's getting late. I will go back first. There is a ceremony tomorrow morning."

"Madam Wang, please send the Third Princess out!" Jiang Fenghua did not keep her. She came in such a hurry so late at night. The Third Princess must want to seize the opportunity.

If Xie Shang wanted to grant fiefs to the princes, what would he choose?

After sending the people away, Nanny Wang returned and said, "Your Majesty, please don't be soft-hearted. The Third Princess can come tonight, and tomorrow morning the Second Princess, the Fourth Princess, and the Sixth Princess will also come to bother you."

"Of course I won't care about these things. They just think that I can influence the emperor. Little do they know that no matter how favored I am, the emperor has his own opinions." Jiang Fenghua understood Xie Shang. He was not an emperor who was easily instigated by women.
