Reborn Bastard Supreme

After watching for a while, the emperor slowly lowered his head, allowing the attendant to open the box, his eyes fell on the inside of the box, which was filled with several small plates, and on the brightly colored snacks: "What did you do?"

Hearing his question, the queen stepped forward on her knees, pointed to the box, and said softly with a smile: "Your Majesty loves them all, crystal rolls, and silver silk cake—" "It's been so many years, do you still remember my When I was a prince, what I liked to eat—" The emperor glanced upwards, was helped by the attendants to get off the couch, and when he raised his hand to help her, he sighed, "You have a heart."

The queen got up with his strength, quickly held his arm, and helped him back on the couch again. Watching the attendant give the snacks and tested each piece for poison, she raised her hand to pick up the plate and put it on the bed The emperor said softly in front of him: "As long as Your Majesty likes it, it will be worth it for my concubine to make these. Your Majesty, I will try this snack. I have not made it for many years, so I don't know if it tastes good now."

The emperor took a deep look at her, raised his hand to pick up a piece of pastry, chewed it carefully, and sighed unconsciously after swallowing it: "It still tastes the same as before, your craftsmanship has not deteriorated."

After hearing this, the queen seemed to think of something, she couldn't help raising her sleeves, wiped the corners of her eyes lightly, and sighed in a hoarse voice: "Your Majesty the emperor ate that piece of cake, looked back and sat beside me, although it seemed Still young, a woman who is not much different from himself. For so many years, he has grown from an unknown prince to the emperor above ten thousand people. It is the gentle and gentle woman in front of him who has loved him since he was a teenager. He has accompanied him My decades and years—the eyes changed for a moment, the emperor sighed deeply, held her fingers, and patted the back of her hand lightly. Seeing the queen cast his eyes, he said in a low voice after a moment of silence: " For so many years, only you have been by my side all the time, you are the person on the cusp of my heart, even if I have wronged others, I will not wrong you—""The concubine knows, the concubine understands. "

The queen seemed not expecting him to say such a thing, tears welled up in her eyes, and her voice became choked with sobs: "The concubine is old now, and has no children, and the only hope now is Your Majesty... ...As long as His Majesty is doing well and prolonging life for thousands of years, the concubine will be satisfied."

"The dead are dead, prince... prince..."

Hearing the empress mentioning the death of the prince, even the emperor, who had been estranged from the prince because the prince was a fool, felt a little sad. After all, it was his first child and the only child he and the empress had raised for 20 years. Died suddenly for many years, still because of a theater courtesan, such absurd reason——Thinking of this, his expression darkened, and the depths of his eyes were somewhat complicated. He didn't want to talk about this sad matter again, so he changed the subject and asked : "Didn't you adopt the fourth child a while ago?"

When the queen heard him mention Xin Yuanping, her ears perked up unconsciously, but her face was still the same as before, looking sad for the prince. The emperor glanced at her, thinking that she was really still sad, and patted the back of her hand again, raised her hand He hugged her and sighed: "Concubine Yi died early back then, and the child had been raised in the palace all the time, and now she is so old - time flies, time is not forgiving. You are the mother of the main palace, since you adopted her When the fourth child is born, educate him well, and he will be rewarded in the future."

"Follow Your Majesty's orders."

As soon as the word "reward" was heard, the queen's eyes lit up, then quickly dimmed, and the corners of her lips showed a little mockery. When she raised her head again, it seemed that she had just restrained her sadness and forced herself to smile, pointing Pointing to the plate in front of her, she half urged and half coquettishly said: "Your Majesty, don't talk about this, I don't want to hear this either, why don't you accompany me and eat the snacks made by me, I will be happier."

The emperor heard her say that he didn't care about the position of the prince, and his face was a little more gentle than before, so he stopped the topic according to her intention. The two whispered while eating snacks, and the atmosphere gradually warmed up.

It was not until an hour passed that the golden-red phoenix robe meandered and appeared at the entrance of the hall again.

After giving the food box to the waiting lady-in-waiting, the queen lowered her head slightly, allowing the long golden tassels on the phoenix hairpin to slide down her cheeks. Only then did he quickly glance around, and lowered his voice to call out.

"Miss."

Before she finished speaking, the queen raised her hand slightly, stopped her words, stood still on the spot, looking at the corridor not far away, a group of people was slowly coming, the leader was just now, the big man who was guarding the entrance of the hall Seeing this, the eunuch and the maid of honor shut up and swallowed what she wanted to say.

"I have seen the empress, please greet the empress."

"There are some things that I want to tell you."

Seeing the old eunuch walk to her side, a smile appeared on the corner of the Queen's lips, and she lowered her voice and said, "Your Majesty rested because of lack of energy. It's still early in the morning. If Your Majesty has slept for two hours and still doesn't wake up, you guys will be fine." You have to wake up your majesty, have dinner and approve the papers before you rest, otherwise your majesty will be furious if the papers are squeezed until tomorrow, and you will not get well."

Hearing this, the old eunuch looked at her with an inexplicable expression, and lowered his body to respond: "I would like to follow the Queen's order."

Seeing the old eunuch walking away, the palace maid breathed a sigh of relief, guessing that the empress purposely opened her mouth to suppress the old eunuch, and there was a lot of gloating on her face, she followed the empress while walking with a low voice She asked in a low voice: "Your Majesty, after you went in just now, can you tell Your Majesty about the prince's matter—" The Queen sneered, glanced at her, and said thoughtfully, "If you really mentioned it, I'm afraid Your Majesty will Not only will I definitely not agree to it, but because of the matter of the Fourth Prince being the crown prince, this palace will also be labeled as ambitious by the emperor."

The grand lady did not expect that she would look at her suddenly, and she noticed that her eyes were extremely cold and pressing. Not long after the prince died, the queen also fell seriously ill. After recovering, she immediately adopted the fourth prince, but her temper became It became more and more weird and unpredictable. There were four maids serving in the palace, but now she was the only one left. Thinking of this, a layer of cold sweat broke out on her back.

Fortunately, the empress only looked at her for a while, then shyly withdrew her gaze, as if nothing had happened, and spoke again with a calm expression.

"It's been a few months since the prince's death... His majesty looked depressed, but it was because of his poor health, not because of the prince's death. He might have been tired of the prince long ago, and he had already thought of changing the prince. If it wasn't for the fact that he really didn't have a good candidate for the crown prince in his heart, my son would have been pushed down from the position of crown prince by him while he was still alive."

When the palace lady heard the queen say that the emperor didn't care about the prince at all, her heart beat wildly with that extremely cold gaze, and she didn't dare to look at the queen's expression, but she was even more careful in her actions: "Then the prince's hatred, the empress can't help it." ——" "Your Majesty is unwilling to dispose of the Rong'an Theater because Murong Yi has the shadow of Nanzhao's Murong family behind him. Your Majesty does not want to entangle Nanzhao's Murong family face to face for a dead and worthless prince."

The empress and the emperor have been husband and wife for many years, and they were companions when they were teenagers. If anyone knows the emperor best, it must be the person who accompanies him day and night.

In her opinion, none of the emperor's sons could reach that position and be able to handle it with ease.

Although I thought so in my heart, I couldn't say it like that. Although the fourth prince Xin Yuanping is stupid, if he uses it well, he will become a handy weapon that won't cut his fingers when he becomes a prince or even ascends to the throne of God. Dao: "But if the next crown prince comes to the throne, fortunately, Yi is the child of this palace, then it is only natural for this palace to let the prince dispose of the Rong'an Theater." Listening to her words, the eldest palace lady gradually began to have some guesses : "Your Majesty... Your Majesty is talking about His Highness the Fourth Prince? Your Majesty is so sure that His Majesty will make His Highness the Fourth Prince the crown prince?"

The queen nodded, and went up the steps nonchalantly, and finally saw the parked phoenix chariot not far away, and narrowed her eyes slightly: "I know his sons best, there is no such thing as a powerful prince, They are all pussy and soft-bodied, just like Xin Yuanan's temperament, which is a bit bloody, but it's a pity that his eyes - the rest of the princes are either stubborn or have disabilities, only one Xin Yuanping is intact, although his temper is a bit petty , you can keep the golden mean after some experience.”

The palace lady nodded when she heard the words, but she didn't see the empress lowering her eyes and showing a mocking smile. She came here today to deliver snacks, half of which was to relive the old relationship with the emperor and let the busy emperor cherish himself , he raised his mind to make the fourth prince the crown prince, and the other half was to see if the emperor's body was as good as it looked.

Naturally, the result was not what she had expected. The current emperor can criticize papers and respond to political affairs every day, but his health is not as good as before. She successfully broke through the emperor's wariness and made the emperor think that after the death of the prince, she already had nothing to ask for. Due to the relationship between the two and the situation of many princes, he would naturally choose to The fourth prince who should be chosen, named him the new prince.

In the blink of an eye, the palace lady understood the hint hidden in the Queen's words, and her eyes widened immediately: "So, even if you don't say anything, His Majesty will definitely choose His Highness the Fourth Prince as the new crown prince?"

"Nine times out of ten, I'm about to make up my mind."
