Early the next morning, Academician Xie faced the Queen with panda eyes and swollen face, and praised the Queen for her actions that benefited the people.
Has Xie Huai changed his gender?
Yesterday everyone was eating and drinking together and scolding the diva. Why has he changed so much today?
Emperor Xuanwu looked at the injuries on his face and couldn't help laughing and said: "What Xie Aiqing said is true. Then the imperial examination after next spring will be arranged by Xie Aiqing."
Xie Huai: You are really good at climbing up the pole!
Those officials who originally stood on the same front as Xie Huai all glared at him, and the feeling of betrayal made them share the same hatred.
Xie Huai couldn't express his pain, so he had no choice but to accept it.
However, Jiang Yankun, the one who had killed a thousand swords, still hugged his shoulders warmly after going to court. The two brothers looked so good: "Oh! Thank you, brother. I will take a bath tomorrow, and you and your wife will come home to eat." My brother-in-law, your sister-in-law will show you her skills personally. Don’t you like eating Jiangnan food? Your sister-in-law is from Jiangnan, and the local food she cooks must suit your taste. That’s it!”
"Did Xie Huai get beaten by the Queen of Heaven's people? Look at how scared he is? Was he threatened?"
"Impossible, that guy Xie Huai smells like shit. He was beaten a lot. It must have been the Queen of Heaven who gave him great benefits to make him change his tune so quickly. You cunning old guy, we were all fooled by him. ”
"It turns out that he is against the Queen of Heaven because he knows that the Queen of Heaven will benefit him. Doesn't this treat us all as cannon fodder? Will we still have a good life in the future?"
They are right to worry.
Because Jiang Xinyue "gently" dealt with Xie Huai, it was their turn to be iron-blooded.
In the next half month, they no longer had the energy to oppose the Queen Mother's new laws and policies, because something happened in each of their families, and some even lost their lives.
The officials in the court changed one after another, and gradually, no one dared to say no anymore.
Jiang Xinyue's existence made them realize a cruel fact.
That is, those who follow me will prosper, and those who go against me will perish.
Reform requires bloodshed, but the blood shed is the blood of those who oppose the Queen of Heaven.
The day before Jiang Xinyue was due to give birth, several officials who supported Concubine Shi were assassinated and investigated. It was even spread among the people that the Queen of Heaven would not tolerate any opposition to her.
Concubine Shi's voice was very loud, and she was afraid that she would not live long.
Jiang Xinyue was too lazy to pay attention to these rumors and was waiting for delivery in Kunning Palace.
The emperor returned to Kunning Palace after the morning court in the past few days and stayed with her every step of the way. Jiang Xinyue really scared him when she gave birth to the prince for the first time.
Aunt Xiang laughed at him: "Your Majesty, don't be too nervous. This will make the empress even more frightened. In fact, a woman who has given birth will have a much easier time giving birth to a child for the second time than the first time. The empress has good congenital conditions. This baby will go well."
"vomit!"
The emperor covered his mouth with a somewhat painful expression: "I don't want to be nervous, but I really want to vomit."
Even when the courtiers threatened him to remove Jiang Xinyue from power or else he would not go to court, he had never been so nervous.
Because the entire dynasty was civil and military, if any one of them was missing, his subordinates could be brought up to replace him immediately. Without anyone, the Yan Dynasty would not come to a standstill.
But if something happens to Yue'er, there is only one Yue'er in the world. If she is gone, she will be gone forever. There will be no such person in this world.
He couldn't bear just thinking about it.
Jiang Xinyue was not afraid at first, but seeing him like this made her heart sink into her stomach.
She frowned, a little irritated: "Why don't you go out! I'm even more scared when you are here."
The emperor said while "vomiting": "I really want to be here with you, but I... I'm still waiting for you outside. If you start it and want me to accompany you, just call me."
The pain of giving birth to the prince was still vivid in her mind. Although Jiang Xinyue was mentally prepared this time, she was still very scared.
Aunt Xiang and several midwives who delivered the baby were all comforting her: "Don't be afraid, my dear, take a deep breath and exhale. The labor pains are just beginning now, and it will take a long time!"
"Yes, my dear, the second pregnancy is not as painful as the first. Don't be afraid. Your Highness will come out with a squeak. It's very fast!"
Several people chattered to relax Jiang Xinyue's mood. The heart that had been raised by the emperor just now was relieved again.
She took a few deep breaths, and the bursts of pain were no longer so unbearable.
Outside the door——
Shi Fei's hands hidden in her sleeves clenched tightly, but there was a decent smile on her face.
"Clang!"
The little maid of Kunning Palace was serving tea to Concubine Shi, but someone tripped her foot. She fell at Concubine Shi's feet, and the tea splashed on her embroidered shoes and skirt.
The little maid glanced back and saw the maid from Chengqian Palace standing behind the emperor in an orderly manner.
She didn't have time to think too much and hurriedly begged Concubine Shi for mercy.
This is the territory of Kunning Palace. No matter how angry Concubine Shi is, she cannot attack the people in her palace at the critical moment when Jiang Xinyue is giving birth.
She doesn't have the power either.
Concubine Shi smiled gently and helped the little palace maid who fell down: "I am fine. You are not injured, are you? Get up quickly."
The little palace maid stood up flattered, but did not see Concubine Shi glance at her eunuch with a sinister look.
Standing behind the emperor, with her head lowered and her eyes covered by thick bangs, Mu Qianqian smiled, her expression calmed down again, and she stood there without a trace of presence.
Concubine Shu, Concubine Liang, and Guiren Ye were all very anxious. The empress complained of stomachache when she was playing cards with them yesterday. Unprepared, they hurriedly sent the empress back to Kunning Palace.
For this reason, the emperor scolded them bloody.
He also said that if the empress did anything wrong at all, her gambling hands would be chopped off.
Conscience of heaven and earth, ever since the second princess got married to Princess Yunyang's grandson, Concubine Liang, as the concubine who was closer to the second princess, was as busy as a spinning top.
Moreover, the Queen of Heaven was busy correcting memorials all day, and they had not rubbed hands together for a long time.
Finally, the day before the mother-in-law gave birth, the second princess's dowry was almost sorted, and the few of them had another date.
Who would have known that it was such a coincidence that before dawn the next day, the Queen of Heaven's stomach began to have pains.
Speaking of which, there will be several waves of happy events after the New Year!
The second princess is about to get married, the magpie is about to get married, and it seems that the Queen's biological sister will also marry into the Hussar General's house later this year.
But the second princess is a princess after all. The best day calculated by the Qintian Supervisor is that only the second princess will get married on that day in the entire capital. Ordinary people have to make concessions for the second princess when it comes to wedding matters.
However, the good days of several people are not far apart.
Too far away...
Why did the Queen of Heaven make no sound when she gave birth this time?
