Chapter 227: Wedding in Advance
After leaving the Queen Mother's bedroom, Su Chenyu asked with a smile, "Do you trust me so much?"
"If I don't trust you, who else can I trust?" Baili Yanqing held her hand tightly. "He made the wrong choice. Now that the Queen Mother has become like this, he wants to run away. It's wishful thinking!"
Deng Hailuan helped the Queen Mother do so many unscrupulous things for the sake of power. The most suitable ending for him is to lose everything and be trapped here for the rest of his life.
"I had originally wanted to wait for the day when the Queen Mother lost power, and then ridicule her, but now that day has come, it seems like there is no point in doing so."
Su Chenyu felt that the current queen mother was like a pool of rotting meat, without any vitality. The end waiting for her was endless torture.
Su Chenyu didn't care about the past grievances and disputes with the Queen Mother at that moment. Because no matter what the Queen Mother had done, her end would only be worse than those she had harmed!
"The Queen Mother and the Empress are both useless. Now there are only two Imperial Consorts in the harem. The Emperor will probably choose one of them as the Imperial Consort to take charge of the affairs of the harem."
When Baili Yanqing said this, he suddenly stopped. He looked at Su Chenyu in surprise and asked, "Have you long expected this day to come?"
At the full moon banquet, everyone saw Concubine Yun's arrogant look because of her favor. Who would support her to be the Imperial Concubine?
"Father will not be tempted to choose Imperial Concubine Shu. In this case, I can only help Imperial Concubine Shu." Su Chenyu smiled slightly, "But the obstruction of the ministers may not be able to shake Father's mind. If Imperial Concubine Shu is smart, she has the best opportunity right now. Let's see if she can seize it."
"Shu Guifei has always been intelligent. She is the best candidate for the position of Imperial Guifei." Baili Yanqing looked at Su Chenyu and smiled. The sunlight shone on his face, making his smile look particularly warm.
Su Chenyu's heart was moved: "Yan Qing, it's great to have you."
"Let's go home together."
It was Baili Yanqing who gave Su Chenyu a home, protected her from all the wind and rain, and was also Su Chenyu's indestructible backing!
In the imperial study, Jingzhao Prefecture Governor Tan Qinghui was reporting the situation in the capital to Emperor Jing of Wei.
During this period, too many things happened in the palace. First, the Crown Princess was "ill", then the Sixth Prince died, and now the Queen Mother fell down the stairs and had a stroke and was bedridden. People were panicking, and everyone was wondering if this was a bad omen.
After hearing this, Emperor Jing of Wei looked unhappy. He said these were facts and there was no way to refute them.
After a long while, Emperor Jing of Wei spoke up, "A lot of things have happened during this period, but there is nothing joyful. Didn't the Queen Mother grant the marriage between the Crown Prince and Yan Ruqin? Let the Imperial Astronomical Observatory choose the nearest auspicious day and hold it in advance to make it easier for the Queen Mother. Although Yan Ruqin is a concubine, the wedding ceremony can be held according to the status of the Crown Princess. If the Ministry of Rites asks about it, just say it was my order."
Cai Quan was ordered to do this. Cai Quan received the order and prepared to leave. When he was about to leave, he heard Emperor Jing of Wei continue to say, "There must be someone who is not responsible in the harem. The position of Imperial Concubine has been vacant for many years. It is time to choose someone to share my worries..."
Cai Quan was slightly distracted while listening to Emperor Jing of Wei's words. He didn't expect that this distraction caused him to bump into someone.
Cai Quan knelt down quickly and said, "It was I who bumped into him."
"It wasn't a serious collision. Eunuch Cai, please get up." The voice of Concubine Shu sounded above his head. Cai Quan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was Concubine Shu who met him. If it was Concubine Yun, he didn't know what punishment he would receive.
While feeling fortunate, Cai Quan also felt that he was not careful enough and actually made such a mistake.
"It's rare for Eunuch Cai to leave in such a hurry. I think he has something important to do. Go quickly and don't delay."
