The Story of the Charming Empress - C59

After the ceremony, half a day had passed. Yang Guang and I got on the imperial carriage and drove to the palace. Yang Guang then ordered the officials to attend the banquet. His benevolence was magnificent, and he granted the world a general pardon.

Years later, when I think back to this scene, I will always sigh. This is probably the only good thing Yang Guangsheng did in his entire life, in the course of his tyrannical rule, to benefit the nation and the people.

Inside the Palace, Yang Guang sat on a dragon throne made of pure gold, laughing heartily:

“With this phoenix imprint in your heart, your mother will rule the world. In the future, you will be virtuous and magnanimous, and you will be benevolent to the Six Palaces.”

I responded and slowly walked forward and asked:

“Why did His Majesty summon me here?”

Yang Guang slightly swept a glance at me, and casually said:

Oh, a few days ago, our descendants handed over a paper slip saying that a new emperor had ascended the throne and that the talent show was supposed to enrich the harem. Because we have yet to ascend the throne, we ignored it.

I smiled and said,

“Your Majesty’s words are reasonable. When your concubine has settled down in the palace, you will immediately go and prepare for this matter. But right now, there is a thorny matter. Noble Chen has already been summoned to the palace and His Majesty has not yet granted her residence. This consort does not know where to place her? ”

“Oh, the empress should be in charge of the harem matters. You can decide on that.” Yang Guang said casually.

After some thought, I said:

“Apart from the Palace of Yongfan that your concubine resides in, the Palace is the closest to the Palace of Rebirth.” Apart from the Palace of Yongfan that your concubine resides in, the Palace of Rebirth is the closest to the Palace of Rebirth.

Although this is a bargain for Chen, it is also my helpless action. Madam Xuanhua is still living in Yongfu Palace, so she should be moved to the imperial mausoleum or the imperial concubine. She should be moved to a palace far away from the Forbidden Palace, such as Shouning and Xian, which were specially prepared by the imperial family for the imperial concubine.

Because of her unclear relationship with Yang Guang, I didn’t know how to settle her down. Now that I called Chen Zhong into the Palace of Yongfu, it was naturally time for Xuan Hua to leave.

“Hmm? But isn’t it a little inappropriate for Madam Xuanhua to be staying at the Palace of Eternal Blessings? ” Yang Guang’s expression changed as he stared at me.

“Madam Xuan Hua is the former Imperial Consort. Now that His Majesty has ascended to the throne, she naturally should not be living here anymore.” I’m still as respectful as ever.

“Where should I ask my beloved concubine to move to?” Yang Guang’s face was like frost, containing a little anger.

I only acted as if I didn’t see him, still neither humble nor haughty as before, and said:

“In accordance with the rules of etiquette, of course —”

“Shut up!” Before I could finish, Yang Guang shouted and interrupted me,

“Shut up!” Before I could finish, Yang Guang scolded me and interrupted me, “The empress’s plan was really good. I thought you were really a good person, but it turns out that you were just trying to force Lady Xuanhua away!” With a cold snort, he threw down his sleeves and turned his back to me.

Since Yang Guang saw through my thoughts, I didn’t say anything more. I knew that I would have to face this problem sooner or later, I can’t just let them continue to be confused, otherwise, if rumors were to spread out, where would the face of the imperial family go? To have a son taking on a father’s concubine was to be ridiculed by the entire world.

“If Your Majesty thinks so, then so be it. Your concubine believes that it is no longer appropriate for Madam Xuanhua to stay in the Eternal Fortune Palace and requests Your Majesty to pass down the decree!” I knelt down and said.

“You — —” Yang Guang’s expression changed, he slapped his palm on the table and said, “Are you really ignorant, or are you pretending to be stupid?!”

I didn’t say anything, I just knelt down resolutely, and my eyes met Yang Guang’s.

After a moment, Yang Guang calmed his mind and slowly walked in front of me. He held me up and said:

“Alright, after I love you, I will never ask you to do anything, only this one, you must promise me that you will take on Madam Hua as your concubine.” Alright, after I love you, I will never ask you to do anything, only this one, you must promise me that you will take on Madam Hua as your concubine.

I shook my head, light but determined, and said:

“Does Your Majesty think that you can keep this a secret? Lady Xuanhua is my royal father’s concubine, how can you console my father’s spirit in heaven by doing this? ”

Yang Guang was a little impatient, and said:

“You only said that you wouldn’t?”

The anger in my heart was about to burst out of my throat, but I thought about what my mother-in-law had told me: Endure.

“It’s not that I don’t want to, it’s just that it’s difficult for chenqie to do it. His Majesty can order chenqie to do it, but can His Majesty block the leisurely way of the world?”

Yang Guang’s face was filled with anger, he anxiously paced back and forth, and said:

“Everything has to take into account the righteous words of the world. What else can I, the emperor, do?”

“Even if it is an ordinary citizen, taking in a mother as a concubine is something that the heavens would not tolerate.” I murmured.

“But normal families do not need to worry about others’ words!” Yang Guang stared at me and said angrily.

“Isn’t being an emperor the dream of His Majesty? Although you are not allowed to touch your royal father’s concubine, there are countless beauties in the world that you can choose from. I reasoned.

“Crash!” Yang Guang angrily flipped all the items on the imperial paper onto the ground. His voice contained an irrepressible anger:

“Good, good, as expected, this is something that mother taught! Do you really think you can act like the Queen Mother? I can cripple you at any time! ”

I was so scared that I kept quiet and quickly kneeled down. I thought that although Yang Guang was lustful, he would still think about the relationship between husband and wife after all. Moreover, the Huawei Consort Na Xuan was actually very rebellious, he wanted to make a ruckus, but who would have thought that he would have the thought of destroying Yang Guang just because of me.

I naturally don’t have Empress Dowager Dugu’s wrist or family background. Even she wasn’t able to restrain the late emperor in the end.

At first, I didn’t pay much attention to it. But upon closer inspection, I saw that on the right side of the piece of paper, there was written my surname, Xiao, and the words’ Birthday ‘. On the left side, there were shockingly eight bold words:’ Mother’s World, Destroying the World ‘,’ Destiny’s Peach Blossom ‘. The signature was: Yuan Tiangang.

Yuan Tiangang is a famous comedian. Even though I am in the palace, I have heard of him. Why did it appear in Yang Guang’s hands again?

I raised my eyes and looked at Yang Guang in astonishment. Yang Guang also saw me pick up the note from the ground and frowned.

“This batch of words was approved by Master Yuan before you came to the Sui Family to get married.” Yang Guang had always believed in the gossips of the five elements, and in divination, he had never doubted Yuan Tiangang. In that case, he had no doubt in these words.

“Is it because of these words that His Majesty has always treated chenqie with respect?” I stared at the four words, “A mother to the world”, with a tinge of sorrow in my heart. “Is it because of these words that Your Majesty has always believed that your concubine is the destined empress?”

Yang Guang was slightly embarrassed, he did not look straight at me and said awkwardly:

“Why do you need to ask again, since you already know? You only have today’s position as an empress, that’s just fate. Since you are the destined empress, then I will be the destined emperor, and you can only be a good empress in your Yongan Palace!

So that’s the reason. I smiled wryly in my heart. A desolate feeling overflowed in my heart. I suppressed the tears that were about to come out of my eyes and said sorrowfully,

“Chenqie shall obey.”

I always thought he was thinking about the relationship between husband and wife, so no matter how much I didn’t like him, he would still look after me. Even though he was vicious, even though he did not hesitate to frame his brother and murder the Emperor for the throne, he was still very polite to me. Even if I exposed his scheme, even if I knew all his shabbbiness.

I had once been touched by these feelings, but now, I sighed in my heart. Ah, well, I was the one who had wrongly paid for my feelings. From the day I was declared a friend, it was nothing more than a guarantee of his status in his eyes.

Was mothering the world really fated? With a bitter smile on my lips, I spoke with a hint of ridicule:

“Since chenqie was destined to behave like a mother to the world, then chenqie will take charge of the harem. Since Madam Xuanhua is the late emperor’s legacy consort, now that the new emperor has ascended to the throne, she will be moved out of the palace immediately!” After I finished speaking, I smiled as I looked at the angered Yang Guang. My heart broke into pieces, fell onto the ground, and was crushed again. However, I did not feel any pain.

I know that Yang Guang has never doubted Yuan Tiangang’s trust, so he will definitely not cripple my position as the Empress, because he is afraid, because he is guilty, and if I am not the mother of the world, then wouldn’t his position as the emperor come to an end?

His title as Emperor was obtained through a conspiracy. Today, when Fang Jun descends upon the world, I’m afraid that he is cherishing this position that has yet to be settled, and will definitely not cripple me!

This is a wager, I bet on Yang Guang’s importance towards the throne.

“You are – vicious!” Yang Guang flung his yellow sleeves, but I was no longer afraid of his dignity.

Even if you cripple me, he won’t lose his position, but he’s afraid of what happens, so he doesn’t dare to use this as a wager! So I won. However, there was no joy in it at all. There was only an endless desolation.

He turned around slowly and walked out of the Palace with a sad but cold smile on his face.

Arriving at the Yongan Palace, I leaned on the brocade sheets and cried to my heart’s content. After crying, Fang felt the deep resentment that had long turned into a thorn in his heart, stuck in his throat, unable to swallow, unable to speak.

“Why is the princess so sad?” The old granny was slightly surprised as she asked.

I opened my mouth, but I didn’t know how to say it. In that case, how could I say it? Humiliation, shame and indignation, he had to shoulder them all alone. If he were to speak them out, it would be like rubbing salt into a wound.

“It must be because that person from the Eternal Fortune Palace has been wronged by His Majesty.” Ying Xiu pointed angrily in the direction of the Eternal Fortune Palace.

“For a princess to be able to harm her own body, what is there to be afraid of?” Grandma comforted him.

They didn’t know why Yang Guang didn’t care about Xuan Hua.

“Indeed, there is nothing to be afraid of. Pass down the imperial decree that Grand Concubine Hua would leave the Imperial Palace and head for the imperial concubine palace. Chen Zhenren will then move into the Eternal Fortune Palace.” My face was expressionless, but my voice was solemn and stern.

Ying Xiu’s face lit up, but there was also a trace of worry on her face.

“Your Majesty!”

“Your majesty has just come on top of a great treasure and is busy with many affairs. You have no time to ask me about these trivial matters, leave it to me to handle.” I said, with a touch of irony that only I could feel.

Only then did Ying Xiu calm down and go out to handle the matter.
