That night, Prince Yong's mansion hung white lanterns to represent funerals, and ordered people to distribute obituaries everywhere. Fortunately, Princess Yong had received a critical illness notice from the imperial doctor since she gave birth to a daughter, and all the burial and funeral objects were prepared long ago. , also chose the tomb according to the rules of the princess, but now Prince Yong is likely to go further, and the tomb site is likely to change.

Sure enough, a decree came from the palace the next day, ordering Princess Yong to be buried in a more important tomb after the funeral. It was originally the tomb chosen by the emperor for his prince and princess in the imperial mausoleum, far away from the emperor himself. The demarcated tombs and the tombs of the empresses and concubines are the closest, and the construction specifications are also built in accordance with the regulations of the emperor's mausoleum.

It is the mausoleum of the next generation of emperors. After the construction of the tomb of the current emperor, the Ministry of Industry supervised the construction of this mausoleum under the emperor's signal. However, the emperor at that time did not expect that the owner of this tomb was not his favorite in the end. His crown prince, but Princess Yong was the one who entered first... His move once again made it clear to the ministers that he was the candidate for the crown prince in his mind.

The death of Prince Yong's mother and daughter at the same time caused shock in the government and the public. After all, the current Prince Yong is already equal to the invisible prince. The Tianjian found a reason for the visions from the sky some time ago, and those visions represented the fate of the nobleman.

As long as those celestial phenomena don’t mean that the country suffers, other reasons can be justified, and the reason for the nobleman’s death is more appropriate. Anyway, Zhou’s illness has been delayed for so long, and the imperial doctor revealed it. She has only been in the past two months. It was a bit early, and the emperor and others were unexpected, let alone that she would die of illness together on the night of Honghui's son's reception banquet...

As for the quarrel between Princess Yong and Prince Yong before she died of illness, under Prince Yong's strict control of the mansion, there was no news about it. Princess Yong was ill for a long time, and everyone knew it She didn't have many days left, so she didn't arouse doubts from the outside world. Those who were sensitive and a little bit unwilling to the throne felt that it was too sudden.

On the contrary, Zhou Fonu and Zhang Xian'er were both in the capital, so they saw the vision of Chang'e returning to the throne. Zhang Xian'er was very surprised at the origin of Princess Yong. Adding to the trouble, her Buddhist luck was also greatly affected. She seduced Taiyin to conspire against Mo Yue, which caused Taiyin to lose her way, and her plan to seize Taiyin luck also failed.

Prince Yong's departure was so sudden that many plans were thrown into her hands before she had time to implement them. In short, since Prince Honghui and his wife returned to Beijing, nothing went well for her. Successive failures made her calm. She couldn't help getting angry, and became a little irritable in her actions. As a result, Gao Taoyao, who had been observing her carefully, discovered many problems, which confirmed the fact that what was said in the letter was true.

…………

How extravagant the funeral of the prince and concubine of the dynasty was, the emperor ordered the Ministry of Rites to hold it at a level lower than that of the princess. Looking for an opportunity to be courteous, making this funeral really extremely mournful. Among the funerals for women in recent years, it is only under the funeral ceremony of the Queen Mother in the previous two years.

After a long time, the exaggeration caused by this funeral calmed down, and the capital was full of undercurrents because of the choice of Prince Yong's successor. After all, Prince Yong is now just middle-aged, and he looks like a dragon among men. He is also very outstanding among the princes, and he is already a candidate for the crown prince. His second concubine may be the future crown prince or even the queen.

Naturally, the honorable ministers from all sides who thought they were qualified to seize it began to show their abilities. The emperor and the harem, especially the concubine De, were the most blaze. I knew it, and I hated it even more in my heart. Why didn't that incompetent woman of the Zhou family die sooner? If she died quickly after giving birth to her daughter, there would not be so many things later.

If she died ten days and a half months earlier, she would not be in a hurry to take action. It was only a few days before she and Prince Yong missed out on such consequences. The man in the family tossed her in different ways every night, all kinds of disgusting and ugly behaviors, the wife of the Zhou family was jealous, and used all kinds of obvious and secret methods.

The hatred for Zhou Fonu has risen sharply, and she is even more jealous of being loved by Prince Yong, who has been given great power. After the death of Princess Yong, she has become the rightful mistress of Prince Shunyong's mansion. In the entire Prince Yong's mansion, there is no woman who can let her Lin Moyue, the eldest concubine she saluted, and the woman who could become Prince Yong's successor concubine in the future, the woman who occupied the position that Gao Taoyao couldn't ask for.

I don't know how many times I cursed in my heart, cursing that Mo Yue and that woman suffered all the misfortunes in the world... However, no one expected it, and there was an uproar among the families, you vying for me to take the seat of Prince Yong's second concubine, and even some The imperial censor played openly in the court hall, asking the emperor to draw up the candidate for Prince Yong's successor as soon as possible, so that many courtiers would not waste their business because of this.

Unexpectedly, before the emperor made a statement, Prince Yong stood up first, expressing that his first wife had just passed away, and he had no intention of remarrying. There was no shortage of heirs, and the eldest son had grown up. Ridiculous, the imperial concubine can be the mistress in the inner courtyard of the palace. There are also many concubines and concubines in the inner courtyard of the palace.

It's almost a matter of saying directly that his daughter-in-law can be the head of the family, and there are not many sons, but there are also many women who serve him. Marrying a step-wife who is younger than his son is really absurd, adding chaos to the palace...

These words blocked all the plans of all parties. Concubine De had confirmed the emperor's heart, and was preparing to choose a suitable candidate to be Prince Yong's second concubine, so she could find a way to control Prince Yong. Prince Yong had such an attitude towards marrying a second concubine. After a close talk with the emperor, even the emperor agreed with his idea and no longer forced it.

He also told Concubine De that if he was worried that Prince Yong would not have enough servants, he would wait for a period of time after the funeral of Prince Yong, choose a few with good temperament, and give them to serve Prince Yong. Feel free, don't think about the position of Prince Yong's concubine, his fourth son will never allow an unknown woman to overwhelm his only son...

Concubine De was beaten up by some remarks, and she felt that Prince Yong was going against her mind and was sincerely angry with her. He was so angry that he had nowhere to vent his anger, so he forcibly endured it... The matter of everyone seeing the second concubine is not going to happen, Naturally, she set her sights on Crown Prince Honghui, and had a lot of thoughts about Mo Yue, who was born lowly and had no consummation but occupied the position of Crown Princess.

However, Prince Honghui is in the period of filial piety, accepting the side concubine... or other ideas, it will take a while to talk about it, but before that, some things should be prepared, shrewd guys who take one step and see three steps , secretly made some arrangements, so Concubine De, who had been depressed for a while, found that there were quite a few people who put eye drops on Prince Yong's concubine in front of her recently.

Words such as unmatched identities and being unqualified to be a side concubine all reached my ears. Concubine De understood what these people were thinking. It wasn't because she saw that the seat of the crown prince could not be obtained, so she focused her attention on the seat of the crown prince. She went up, probably thinking that the filial piety period is over, no, or during the filial piety period, she was asked to pick on the fault of the imperial concubine.

This period is the most prone to mistakes. In addition, the concubine Shizi is young, her background is humble, and she grew up in a commoner's family. She wants to pick a lot of faults, but there is nothing wrong with her. As an elder, a deer is a horse, and a single unfilial piety can crush her to death... It's better for her to cut the position of the first wife of the crown prince. Anyway, it's just a small wedding banquet when celebrating the wedding, which is far from the scale of the real prince and concubine.

Relegation to the concubine's room is also reasonable, but at this time Concubine De selectively forgot that Prince Yong was not Prince Yong when the last moon was happy!Coupled with Chongxi's certain taboos, Honghui's body at the time couldn't stand the toss at all, and the wedding regulations were naturally inferior to the prince's son. Anyway, in Concubine De's heart, at certain times, the royal family has the final say, as long as the emperor speaks, it's fake It can be true, it can be false.

But here lies the problem, the emperor must speak!Concubine De thinks that she understands the emperor well. As long as the emperor doesn't move for a day and abolishes the position of the concubine of the last month, it will be useless for her to find faults. Moreover, Prince Yong is also very protective of her. The next time I wanted to teach that girl a lesson, Prince Yong stopped her...

Therefore, what everyone saw was that Concubine De didn't take their eye medicine at all, and they didn't mean to trouble the concubine at all. They secretly thought, is that concubine so attractive? ... all protect her, now it seems that even the concubine De, who is rumored to dislike her, seems to be...

Concubine De didn't take over, she thoughtfully turned her brains to the young and beautiful concubines favored by the emperor in recent years. Therefore, recently when the emperor visited the harem, he often heard his favored concubines, either directly or hinting, There is concern about whether the birth and upbringing of Prince Yong's concubine can take up the responsibility of the concubine.

If it is the daughter of a certain minister, the granddaughter of a certain father-in-law, or the eldest daughter of a certain marquis, the emperor will naturally understand that these people are not eating the pie of the second-in-law, so they have moved their minds. Regarding Honghui, he himself felt that the people of the last month were quite straightforward and blessed, and there was nothing wrong with it. Later, he heard a lot, and the emperor was getting old now, and his ears had softened.

He is not as assertive as he was when he was young, and he is gradually thinking about whether Honghui should give some sweetness to appease the courtiers when he is filial piety. Concubines don't need to be restricted, Honghui is not young anymore, other grandchildren at Honghui's age are all fathers.
