"Squeak" the door of the hall was pushed open.
"Your Majesty, it's time to go out."
"Wait outside, don't wake up Concubine Ning." Cang Ning's lazy voice came.
"Yes." The palace maids could only obey. Cang Ning quickly stood up and went to the outer room. Cang Ning was particularly different today, and everyone was eager to see what kind of person the Concubine Ning, who could change Cang Ning, was.
The emperor loved her so much that he used his own name as her title.
And from that night on, Concubine Ning lived in the Emperor's private palace, and the Emperor personally took care of her meals and washing. If any palace servants tried to find out, they would be punished immediately by Cang Ning.
The best food, clothing, housing and transportation must be delivered to Jindian.
For a time, rumors spread that a celestial being had descended to earth to save all living things, and Cang Ning allowed the rumors to spread.
The girls in the harem prayed every day that Concubine Ning would live a long life and remain young forever.
Only the girl who woke up in the side hall quietly changed into the clothes of a palace maid and sneaked into the imperial kitchen, full of gratitude to Concubine Ning.
Cang Ning was just like a scholar whose mind was bewitched by a vixen. His behavior became more and more absurd. He would not even attend court every few days, and would just play with Concubine Ning in Jin Palace.
Urgent military information: the former Crown Prince Canghua has captured three cities with an army of 50,000.
"Why are you in such a hurry? He's just a defeated general of mine." Cang Ning was very impatient. The man wanted to play again, so Cang Ning had him dragged away and beaten with ten boards.
When the Queen Mother heard about this, she hurriedly sent Cang Ning to see him. Cang Ning then remembered that the person beaten today was his good uncle. No wonder the Queen Mother was so anxious.
"Go and report to my mother that I will go look for her after I have dinner with Concubine Ning." After Cang Ning finished speaking, he waved his hand and asked people to leave, and he hurried back to Jin Palace.
"This rebellious son!" The Queen Mother slammed the table in anger.
"Let's go. I want to see what kind of stunning beauty this Imperial Concubine Ning is!" After the Queen Mother said this, she led a group of people and headed straight for Cangning's palace.
"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager is on her way."
"Yes, I understand. My beloved, I will be back soon."
"Your Majesty, please come back soon. I can't eat all this by myself."
Cang Ning got up and went out to greet the Queen Mother.
"Greetings, Mother."
"I'm feeling uneasy. I'm already here, so why does that Noble Concubine Ning still want me to go to Jindian to pick her up?" The Empress Dowager now felt that it was all because of that Noble Concubine Ning who had seduced the Emperor. The Emperor had always been courteous to people from her mother's family, and after he ascended the throne, he relied even more on his maternal uncle.
Today he actually ordered him to be caned, and it was for reporting Cang Hua's rebellion.
Before, I just thought that Concubine Ning was a bit novel, and I didn't want to ruin the relationship between mother and son for a woman. Now it seems that Concubine Ning can't be kept.
"Mother, please calm down. Ning'er likes quietness and is afraid of meeting strangers. If you have anything to say, please tell me."
"My prince is really going to ignore me for a woman." Seeing Cangning defending this woman so much, the empress dowager was even more furious.
For Cangning, she even slayed a dragon. Is this how her son repays her?
"Mother, why do you say that? I will always remember everything you have done for me." Cang Ning sat down and poured a cup of tea in front of the empress dowager.
"Without mother, I wouldn't be where I am today. Ning'er is still a bit new to me, and I don't want others to see things that belong to me. In the future, I will personally visit your palace, and you can do whatever you want."
"Why was your uncle caned today?" Upon hearing this, the empress dowager no longer bothered about Concubine Ning. She picked up the teacup and took a sip before asking.
"As for Canghua, I have already made arrangements. My uncle was very aggressive in the court today, and the secret deployment cannot be announced to the public. This can only be used to give my uncle a break. It will only be ten strokes of the cane. I have already ordered it, just for show. Queen Mother, there is no need to panic."
"So that's how it is. You had plans, but you didn't tell me earlier. Your uncle is worried about you. Let me write a letter and explain everything for you." The empress dowager was relieved.
"Well, in that case, I'll have to trouble you, Mother."
"You and I are mother and son, why should we be so polite? I will go back first."
"Farewell, Mother."
The Queen Mother came in a rage, but soon she left calmly with her men in a grand manner.
Seeing the Queen Mother walk away, Cang Ning returned to the Jin Palace. Soon, the sound of two people flirting could be heard. Even Cang Ning's uncle had been beaten with a stick, and no one dared to report Cang Hua's rebellion.
The morale of Canghua's army was high after capturing three cities in a row, while the other two cities were waiting for the imperial edict for a long time. When Canghua arrived with his army, everyone from the prefect to the common people lined the streets to welcome him and opened the city gates. It was only ten days since the day when the military situation was reported.
Canghua’s army has arrived outside Dongli City.
Now I have to report it again.
"Let him into the city." Cang Ning said.
Now that the emperor has said so, what else can the civil and military officials say?
Cang Hua led a group of people and walked into the hall in a neatly equipped manner.
"You're here." Cang Ning said.
"I'm here." Cang Hua responded calmly.
"Okay, if you don't do well, I will come and take your life." Cang Ning's words made all the civil and military officials look up in shock, not caring about the rule that they could not look directly into the emperor's face.
After saying this, Cang Ning stood up, smiled slightly, and flew out of the hall with a tap of his toes. Soon, a yellow figure was thrown in.
It was the half-dead Cang Ning, who looked and dressed exactly the same as the one just now, but his spirit was completely different.
