Virtuous Ugly Empress - C178

Rong Chang had already become sensible. After hearing everyone say that Mother’s health was not good, she nestled against Wang Rong and refused to leave for a long time.

“Foolish child, do you see the Queen Mother looking unwell?” Wang Rong He patted her head and smiled.

“They said that the Queen Mother can’t bear children, and that I don’t have any more brothers and sisters?” Rong Chang asked.

“How could that be? Zhao Yi is your younger sister and the third prince of Eldest Prince is your younger brother. You will have many more younger brothers and sisters in the future. ” Wang Rong She said. You are the eldest daughter, will Rong Chang be a good elder sister? ”

Rong Chang nodded, “If third brother is the crown prince, will mother Zheng would become the queen?”

Wulv shook her head with a bitter face. She was the one who could say this to the princess no matter how gossipy she was, “Yesterday, Princess Zhao Yi and Princess Qian Qian were playing in the Gonghou Garden, and I heard a few chattering palace maid say it.”

“Princess, those people were sent to the Palace Manager to be punished.” Wulv said.

Wang Rong He lowered his head and looked at Rong Chang, “Since you punished them and know that they were the ones who said the wrong things, why do you have to be worried?”

“father seems to like mother Zheng a lot.” Rong Chang pouted.

“Then does your father not like you?” Wang Rong asked with a smile.

“They said that father will like the third prince better than me in the future.” Rong Chang said.

“Younger brother is still young, it’s fine if father likes him a little.” Wang Rong He said, “Regardless of how much the father pampered his younger brothers and sisters in the future, his previous love for you was not fake.”

Rong Chang snuggled her face into Wang Rong’s embrace, “I don’t want to be a girl anymore.” More and more people were telling her that she was a big girl and that she couldn’t be like before. However, she still wanted to be with the father Mother everyday and be happy.

“I don’t want Rong Chang to grow up either.” Wang Rong He caressed her head and said, “But it’s good to imagine that Rong Chang will grow taller and taller, slim and graceful, looking like the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother’s intimate cotton-padded jacket will become a warm cloak.”

Rong Chang raised her head and looked at her, “I will accompany mother.”

“When father goes to the other mother, I will accompany mother.”

“It’s really big.” Wang Rong He was somewhat touched by these words, his eyes burning with passion. She lowered her head and kissed Rong Chang’s face.

After Lady Cui returned to her residence, she found an opportunity to tell the old lady what Wang Zhixi meant. The old lady frowned, “She is also the concubine of His Majesty, if she is blessed to have a son, how can I say that it is for the Empress’s sake?”

The Lady Cui looked troubled, “Old lady might not know, but Xi Er has been sleeping with you all the time.”

The old lady opened her eyes. She didn’t know this, and Wang Rong He had never told her about it, but after a while, she half-closed her eyes again. “This matter was decided by His Majesty, since His Majesty didn’t want him to stay, then the Empress can’t be his master either.”

“But seeing that the Empress has given birth to a princess is too lonely.” The Lady Cui said, “We just need to look at the day that the empress dowager lives, how can it not make people’s teeth go cold?”

“Without a direct leader, what does Beauty Wang want?” The old lady said, “I can see that her ambition and courage far exceed the thoughts of a beauty. Who gave her the guts?”

“If His Majesty wants to set up the Eldest Prince, that naturally won’t be said. It’s just that His Majesty dotes on the Imperial Noble Consort Zheng, if His Majesty wants to set up the third son of the Emperor as the crown prince, then why can’t he set up a prince with the bloodline of the royal family?” The Lady Cui said.

“The crown prince only cares about the royal bloodline, but the mother’s bloodline is insignificant.” the old lady said.

“But in the end, there is still a difference between family and friends.” The Lady Cui said, “The Imperial Noble Consort Zheng is very pampered, if His Majesty is determined to raise her child, in order to justify his actions, it would be too late for him to make the Empress yield.”

“Crown Prince, we can only change after being crippled. These things are not things that a woman like you or me can talk about.” The old lady said, “Don’t have too many thoughts, just prepare for the family.”

After that, when they attacked again, the Old Granny would not bring the Lady Cui into the palace, she would only bring the Wife of the Great Sun into the palace.

The old lady had never asked Wang Rong or Wang Zhixi if he really stayed after sleeping each time. Since Wang Rong didn’t want to say it, there was naturally no need to. As for whether it was his Majesty’s will or Wang Rong’s, it was all her good fortune in the end.

When Wang Zhixi saw that the last few times her grandmother entered the palace, and her mother did not enter the palace, she knew what the meaning of the words were.

But she refused to accept her fate.

The maidens from the harem fought for a saint pet. Two, they fought for a child.

Wang Rong couldn’t be born, so how could he not let her follow suit.

The manor couldn’t be relied on, but when she gave birth to a prince, she didn’t believe it. If the emperor didn’t have a son, the manor wouldn’t have thought that she could have a son. As long as her children wait for Dabao, she will be the queen.

So after one session, Wang Zhixi suddenly cried weakly. When her majesty asked her, she said, “There are many rumors going around in the imperial palace, when I think of the Queen’s elder sister, I feel very upset.”

“Sister has a generous temper, she would never tell His Majesty about it. If I don’t tell His Majesty, how would His Majesty know?”

Zhu Yijun looked at her without an expression, “What did the harem teach you?”

“Legacy of the harem.” Wang Zhixi wanted to say something but hesitated.

“If you want to say, then say it. Why are you hesitating?” Wang Zhixi said impatiently. He had already stood up and put on her clothes, so Wang Zhixi no longer dared to be suspenseful and changed into a kneeling posture, “I heard that His Majesty cherishes Imperial Noble Consort and wants to make the third prince of Imperial Noble Consort his crown prince.”

“The empress won’t feel bad about such a small matter. She’s different from you.” Zhu Yijun said, “Presumptuous of you to criticize the crown prince, you sure have guts.”

“No concubine.” Wang Zhixi was innocent.

“You didn’t mention this topic. How could those imperial concubines talk about the matter of the crown prince in front of you for no reason?” Zhu Yijun said, “Do not take us for fools.”

“This concubine is also worried about the Empress.” Wang Zhixi said with grievance. The ruler of the empire, the Imperial Noble Consort, is too doted on by His Majesty. Everyone is worried that His Majesty might take the matter for granted for the sake of his third son. ”

“Tsk.” Zhu Yijun scoffed, “I really did not expect that all of our harem were just a group of heroic heroes, worrying about the political affairs of the imperial court.”

“Your Majesty.” Wang Zhixi held Zhu Yijun’s hand and said, “Big sister won’t say it, but I know that big sister’s heart will definitely be in trouble.”

“You don’t have to worry about that.” Zhu Yijun said, “Be obedient and do your best, if we hear you discussing these kinds of issues again, we will let you know the consequences of talking too much.”

“I’m afraid that even your majesty is unable to say it right now.” Wang Zhixi suddenly shouted, “Does Your Majesty feel more pity for the Empress, or does Imperial Noble Consort Zheng feel more pity for her?”

“I don’t need to explain this to you.” Zhu Yijun said.

He waved his hand and had his men bring Wang Zhixi out.

Zhu Yijun thought that what Wang Zhixi said was funny, he thought that it had been a long time since he last went to the Kunning Palace, so he decided to go there instead.

Zhu Yijun looked at her carefully a few times, and then pinched her wrist, “Why are you thinner?”

“Could it be that the recent shameless words have really angered you?” Zhu Yijun asked. “Your body will gradually recover. You are still young, I still have some expectations for my son.”

Wang Rong smiled as she looked at him. “I thought His Majesty was deliberately saying that to watch the show.”

Zhu Yijun’s face became hot, “This is my negligence, I will say it if I have too much to say. Who would have thought that it would spread like wildfire throughout the city.”

“This is far from here. Your Majesty, please wait.” Wang Rong He said, “When courtier speaks of inviting the crown prince, His Majesty will be annoyed.”

“Do you all think so far ahead?” Zhu Yijun asked curiously, “Just now, the Beauty Wang was also telling us that the harem was discussing the crown prince’s matter.”

“Women only get together to chat about men and children. Otherwise, His Majesty would think that we would be able to spend so much time just chatting about jewelry and playing tricks.” Wang Rong He said.

Zhu Yijun sat down and waved for Wang Rong He to sit beside her, “Beauty Wang said you’re worried because of the rumors.”

“What rumor?” Wang Rong asked.

“He said that for the sake of the Third Prince’s justice, I will allow the Imperial Consort Zheng to ascend to the position of Crown Prince.” Zhu Yijun laughed.

Wang Rong looked at him and asked, “Your Majesty, you can still smile?”

“You’re not really worried, are you?” Zhu Yijun looked at her with a smile.

“I am not worried, but shouldn’t Your Majesty reflect?” Wang Rong He said, “The imperial harem is worried that Her Majesty’s favor towards the Imperial Noble Consort would affect my position in the later generation, so isn’t Her Majesty’s favor too obvious?”

Zhu Yijun frowned, “We don’t think so too?” It was just that he did not know that his kindness towards the Empress was all hidden away in the shadows, or that others did not know, that his kindness towards the Imperial Noble Consort Zheng was in the open, and that the Imperial Noble Consort Zheng was secretly helping them, so naturally everyone had spread rumors that the Imperial Noble Consort Zheng was victorious in threatening the Queen.

The Imperial Consort Zheng’s thoughts were very simple. She had obtained a saint’s favour as soon as she entered the palace, and currently, she was the one who had gotten pregnant the most. Furthermore, she told the world that the Emperor really liked Huang San Zi, which made it easy for people to believe her.

Imperial Consort Zheng was not someone who would humbly tolerate favors. She would even care about losing face, so she did not mind if someone said that she was extremely fond of her, and if they said that she was their concubine, no one would dare to even touch her brow. The harem is not flower palanquin you lift, or fall dog you step on. She was a concubine, not a queen, and it would be foolish of her to suppress him with all that red tape.

The Imperial Consort Zheng had always been doing this ever since she entered the palace.

“His Majesty loves the third prince?” Wang Rong asked.

“I’ve never seen such a little baby before.” Zhu Yijun said, “But I still like it more than Eldest Prince, after all, Imperial Consort Zheng is more liked by him.”

“In the future, Your Majesty will treat Third Prince well, and also have to treat Eldest Prince better.” Wang Rong He said, “To speak to His Majesty with just a single command would save me a lot of trouble.”

Zhu Yijun squeezed Wang Rong’s hand, “Do you want Beauty Wang to have a child?”

“After all, you are sisters.”

“It’s His Majesty’s business if the Beauty Wang doesn’t want to give birth to children. I don’t have the ability to make her pregnant.” Wang Rong She said, “I am the Empress and she is His Majesty’s concubine. Her children, are no different from mine to Imperial Noble Consort and Imperial Consort Gong’s children.”

“I knew it.” Zhu Yijun said, “Zitong’s magnanimity, no one in the harem can compare to him.”
