Rebirth: Ruyi goes crazy in the harem

Chapter 42: The Queen's Push for Growth

Gao Xiyue kept chasing after him, "Your Majesty, I dare not compare myself with the Empress, I just feel sorry for you. It's also my fault that I am not ambitious enough, I only have one eldest prince by my side.

He was raised by a concubine and is so clumsy and stupid that he is not as favored as the Empress’ Second Prince, and even less favored than Concubine Xian’s…”

Halfway through her words, Gao Xiyue suddenly noticed that the emperor looked a little angry, so she stopped talking and did not continue.

"Since Father cannot enter the Military Affairs Office, then the Emperor must promise me that in addition to visiting the Second Prince every month, I must visit the First Prince more often. At least, it should be more often than visiting Concubine Xian."

The emperor sighed, "Princess Hui, I have spoiled you too much. I have allowed you to act like a spoiled child and act foolishly like this."

Gao Xiyue held the emperor's arm and shook him, "Your Majesty, without your frequent visits, I feel too bored staying alone in Xianfu Palace."

The emperor picked up the teacup, lowered his head and frowned, hiding his expression in the shadows, "I heard that Shuangxi in your palace is good at raising snakes. Why are you bored?"

Gao Xiyue's smile froze, and she quickly explained, "Speaking of this, I get angry.

Although Shuangxi has always raised non-venomous snakes, the teeth of those snakes had been extracted long ago.

But it is easy to offend others. I have reminded him many times in private.

The incident at Jingyang Palace happened a few days ago. I felt it was unlucky and punished Shuangxi severely.

He also asked someone to watch Shuangxi and told him to throw all the snakes out himself, and not to keep any more in the future."

The emperor couldn't help feeling a little bit reluctant when he saw Gao Xiyue's anxious expression as she tried to explain urgently.

In addition, the emperor also knew that if Gao Xiyue was ignored for too long because of this matter, Gao Bin might cause trouble.

There was no direct clue pointing to Gao Xiyue in this matter. The emperor was silent for a moment, but in the end he was reluctant to pursue Gao Xiyue's fault.

After thinking it over, the emperor finally patted Gao Xiyue's hand lovingly and said, "You are so well-behaved. Well, I promise you that I will spend more time with you in the future."

After getting the answer she wanted, Gao Xiyue smiled sweetly and snuggled into the emperor's arms, "I know that your majesty treats me the best."

"Okay, it's time, let's go. Let's send Yonghuang to the Shangshufang together." The emperor stood up and Gao Xiyue hurriedly followed.

She didn't want to miss the honor of having the emperor personally send the prince to the Shangshufang.

In the Cining Palace, pink and purple evening primroses bloomed one after another around the railings, making the scene full of vitality and making people feel happy unconsciously.

The Queen Mother was holding Fujia's hand, walking in the courtyard and admiring the flowers. "Huipin, are you really going to ask Gao Bin to intercede for her?"

Fujia smiled and replied, "Yes, Lord Gao did this, which shows that he is not smart. But this time it was Concubine Xian who won beautifully. She used the Queen's force to defeat her and successfully suppressed her.

Although the emperor did not do anything substantial to punish the queen, he must have been much more upset in his heart. In the end, the harem is still under the control of you, the queen mother."

The Queen Mother raised her lips slightly, "Well, Concubine Xian is really getting more and more capable. Someone took the trouble to arrange it, someone went with the flow, everything is linked together, and in the end no one can escape.

It's not in vain that I used the Imperial Observatory and Concubine Yi to help her block many open and secret attacks. She is sensible. "

"Yes, Concubine Xian is grateful and repays the favor. The Queen Mother did not make a mistake in choosing her.

It's just that the director of the Imperial Observatory seemed a little unsteady in his stance today.

I heard that recently in the court, someone used astrology to embarrass Lord Neqin, and it was the Supervisor who started it."

The Queen Mother frowned slightly, then relaxed her brows. "If a disobedient person wants to be punished, just find a chance to do it. Nianqin has been a little arrogant recently, so it would be good for him to be suppressed a little."

After hearing what the Queen Mother said, Fujia changed the subject and said, "By the way, Qi Ru has something to ask the Queen Mother for her approval. Huipin said that the medicine she used all the time was not effective. She has not been able to get pregnant, so she asked Doctor Qi to change the prescription."

The Queen Mother said nonchalantly, "I heard that the Emperor personally sent Yonghuang to the Shangshufang with Huipin a few days ago. Huipin already has Yonghuang, so why is she still restless?

With her condition, it doesn't matter whether she changes the medicine or not. Tell Qi Ru not to go to such trouble for her."

Fujia nodded and said, "I understand."

Gao Xiyue finally managed to appease the emperor temporarily and continued to live her happy life as a brainless concubine.

Although Fu Cha Langya still appeared dignified and composed on the surface, she was actually very anxious inside.

But she couldn't humble herself and could not go to the imperial study every day to flatter the emperor and curry his favor like Gao Xiyue.

She also heard that the emperor valued his eldest son and personally sent Yonghuang to the Shangshufang. Fucha Langya was even more anxious.

Therefore, she focused on the second prince Yonglian and went to Xiefang Palace every day to urge Yonglian to study and practice calligraphy.

In order to encourage Yonglian to study harder, Fu Cha Langya set an extra day of rest every year in addition to the previous schedule for Yonglian that he should study at the beginning of the morning, finish school at the end of the day, and practice archery after school without interruption in winter and summer.

Every year, there are five days of rest, including New Year's Day, Dragon Boat Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, Wanshou Festival, and Yonglian's own birthday.

Yonglian was only five years old, at the age when he loved to play and be active. Naturally, he was discouraged after hearing such a strict study plan.

Fu Cha Langya couldn't help feeling a little soft-hearted when she saw Yonglian's drooping little face.

But when she thought of Huipin's eldest son and Xianfei's son, who were still waiting to seize the crown prince position from Yonglian's legitimate son, Fucha Langya could only harden her heart.

She encouraged Yonglian, "Yonglian, as the emperor's legitimate son, the emperor has high hopes for you. Studying hard is just the most basic thing.

Although the Empress Dowager has ordered you to study at the beginning of the morning, you must go to the Shangshufang to review your lessons at the beginning of the morning. The Empress Dowager will often ask about your homework, so you are not allowed to be lazy, understand?"

Yonglian did not dare to refute, so he could only look up and answer sensibly, "I will definitely live up to your expectations, mother."

Inside the Xiefang Hall, the ice basin in the room was slowly emitting wisps of steam. The purple silver-inlaid copper lotus incense burner was burning with a refreshing mint scent.

The scorching sun shines through the window paper, and seems to be soothed by the coolness, becoming soft and bright. Yonglian is leaning against the window with one hand on his chin, shaking his head and reading, "Those who know it are not as good as those who like it, and those who like it are not as good as those who enjoy it. Confucius said, above the average..."

Yonglian was really sleepy and kept dozing off while reading.

Fu Cha Langya was originally accompanying Yonglian to study. Seeing Yonglian's tired look, she hurried forward and touched his head, saying, "Yonglian, if you are sleepy, go wash your face and wake up."

Yonglian rubbed his eyes and said to Fucha Langya with a little grievance, "Madam, I am really tired from getting up early every day. I want to sleep for a while."
