Concubine Yin asked someone to bring medicinal food from the imperial kitchen and went to the Yangxin Hall.
I happened to meet Concubine Yun at the door.
She married the emperor before Concubine Yun, and the son she gave birth to was more outstanding than Concubine Yun's son. She didn't understand why the emperor didn't let her take charge of Feng Yin.
"Sister Concubine Yin." Concubine Yun said with a smile, "It's a rare encounter, let's go in together."
She came to the Yangxin Palace to see which palace maids could enter and exit the Yangxin Palace freely, so she changed these palace ladies.
The two of them walked to the door of the main hall. Eunuch Gao bowed his body and said, "The emperor is drinking medicine. You two ladies will wait a moment."
"Then I can serve the emperor and drink medicine."
Concubine Yin didn't wait for Eunuch Gao to speak, pushed Eunuch Gao away and walked in, followed closely by Concubine Yun.
One is the biological mother of the new crown prince, and the other is the concubine in charge of the Phoenix Seal. Neither of them can afford to offend them, and Eunuch Gao does not dare to really stop them.
Concubine Yin walked in. Before she entered the inner room, she heard a girl's voice speaking: "...The emperor's uncle is in good health. In fact, there is no need to establish a prince so early... Ziyue once saw a man in a book. The story is that in a country, there was a prince who stayed in this position for more than ten years. The emperor lived too long and the prince could not ascend the throne, so..."
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Concubine Yin raised the curtain and rushed in, "It turns out that the person who is talking nonsense is Princess Zhuang. Your Majesty, Princess Zhuang said such words after the Emperor established the crown prince. It’s hard not to doubt his intentions, your Majesty, please don’t be deceived by this woman!”
Su Ziyue turned pale with fright.
Her husband came to tell her this story just now and asked her to tell it to the emperor. She didn't know why her husband asked her to tell this story, but her husband's words naturally had a purpose.
What she didn't expect was that someone other than the emperor would hear her.
"What Ziyue said is not wrong." The emperor said slowly, "She is standing on her own side and worried about me."
Concubine Yin's eyes widened.
This daughter of the Su family was clearly interfering with the emperor's appointment of a prince. Even the queen was not qualified to say that in front of the emperor.
Just because Princess Zhuang's surname is Su and she is from the emperor's mother-in-law's natal family, is the emperor so tolerant?
"Ziyue was born in a merchant family and does not understand the rules of government affairs. Ziyue went beyond the limits." Su Ziyue raised her eyes and looked at the emperor, "Please ask the emperor to punish you."
The emperor met her eyes and suddenly felt a little dazed. He couldn't help but said: "This prince is indeed too anxious..."
Before he could finish his sentence, there was only a "bang" sound, and the medicine bowl smashed to the ground.
Concubine Yun said in a cold voice: "You can't even hold the medicine bowl, what use do you have? Come here, pull me out, I will punish you with ten sticks, and you will be demoted to the clothing bureau!"
The palace maid was so frightened that her knees weakened and she knelt on the ground: "I beg Imperial Concubine Yun to spare my life. I made a mistake. I don't dare to do it anymore. I beg Imperial Concubine to take back my life..."
Concubine Yin was a little annoyed at the emperor's defense of Su Ziyue, and vented her anger on the palace maid: "How unbecoming is it to make noises? Come on, why don't you stop!"
The emperor waved his hand: "I am tired, so please retreat."
Concubine Yun, Concubine Yin, and Su Ziyue bowed their knees and left, and the door of Eunuch Gao's hall slowly closed.
"There is a shortage of someone to serve tea and water in the Emperor's Palace. I will arrange for someone to fill this gap later." Concubine Yun said casually, "Now that the Emperor's dragon body is not in good condition, if the Yangxin Palace needs manpower, Eunuch Gao will be available at any time." Have someone send a message to me."
Eunuch Gao lowered his head: "Yes."
After leaving the Yangxin Palace, Concubine Yin couldn't help but say: "Concubine Yun, have you noticed that after Princess Zhuang said those words, the emperor seemed to regret... a little bit about establishing the crown prince?"
Concubine Yun said with a smile: "Sister, don't think too much. The emperor is just in poor health and thinks too much. The new crown prince has made it known to the world that this matter will not change again."
In fact, she also realized that the emperor trusted the daughter of the Su family too much.
For such a big matter as establishing a crown prince, Jian Shu allowed the daughter of the Su family to express her opinion, which was extremely conniving.
It always feels a little weird.
After the new crown prince was established, the East Palace took on a new look and was about to welcome a new owner.
However, Chu Yi was still taking office in Dali Temple, which was located outside the palace. It was really inconvenient to get out and enter the palace, so he postponed his move into the East Palace.
This is just a superficial excuse.
The fact is that the person behind him has not yet emerged. If he moves into the palace, he will be entering an unfamiliar environment.
He was worried about Chu'er and his three children.
It won't be too late to move into the East Palace after the person behind it is dealt with.
In her third year as Princess Pingxi, Yunchu finally started to hold a banquet. The main reason was that Chu Yi became the prince, so this banquet had to be held.
When the new crown prince takes office, he naturally has to make a wide range of connections, and basically all the ministers in the DPRK and the Central Government have received invitations.
The Pingxi Palace was bustling with activity, and those who came to congratulate him almost crossed the threshold.
"I've met the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess!"
"Your Highness the Crown Prince looks good, congratulations!"
"The Crown Princess never holds banquets, and we don't even know what Prince Pingxi's palace looks like."
"The Crown Princess will hold more flower viewing banquets in the future!"
Yun Chu said with a smile: "Appreciate flowers in the spring, drink tea in the summer, hunt in the autumn, and watch the snow in the winter. Just don't be bothered by it."
Everyone walked in and found that Pingxi Prince's Mansion was not as luxurious as they imagined, and the scenery everywhere was elegant and warm.
Chu Yi received courtiers in the front yard.
Yunchu entertained his female relatives in the backyard.
Chu Hongyu and Chu Changsheng were also greeting the young guests.
Some boys chatted with Chu Hongyu and Meng Shen about studying.
Some girls were with Chu Changsheng, chatting about the daily life of female celebrities and painting.
Although Chu Changsheng has grown up, she still doesn't like to deal with people by nature. After she settled a group of daughters of aristocratic families of similar age, she quietly pulled Xie Xian to the side courtyard.
She exhaled: "I'm too tired talking to them. Let's just read here."
As soon as he finished speaking, a voice came from the side: "I will also read with you."
Chu Changsheng looked over and saw that it was Xie Shiyun.
Today, the palace held a banquet, so she invited her two friends, Xie Xian and Xie Shiyun, to come over. Xie Xian was often together, but Xie Shiyun had not seen her for quite some time.
Xie Shiyun felt a little inferior: "I don't even understand what those young masters are talking about."
He could only come here to find the princess, otherwise it would be more embarrassing to be alone.
"Don't tell me it's you, I don't understand what they are talking about." Chu Changsheng smiled and said, "You came just in time. I want to make a painting using the fruits of this tree. Can you help me pick the fruits?"
There are such camphor trees everywhere in the backyard of the palace. The fruits on the trees come in various colors from green to deep purple. When placed on rice paper according to the colors, they can indeed form a painting.
Xie Shiyun smiled: "Okay, I'm the best at this."
He immediately climbed up the trunk and shook the branches vigorously. Fruits of various colors fell down like rain.
"Shiyun, you are so awesome!"
Chu Changsheng couldn't help but praise.
The smile on Xie Shiyun's face became even bigger.
After he entered the palace, people kept asking about his identity. When they learned that his surname was Xie, everyone looked down upon him with contempt.
Only the little princess knew who he was, but she never looked down upon him. She treated him as a normal friend. In order not to hurt his self-esteem, she often gave him pens, ink, paper, inkstones and books as gifts in return. He was very grateful. But I don’t know how to repay.
He wished he could shake off all the fruits from this tree, as long as the little princess could be satisfied.
