Chapter 385 Fu Chenan is coveted
This kind of thing can be investigated quickly.
When the result was placed on the dragon case of Emperor Tianwu, he laughed out of anger.
He suddenly agreed with his son's words.
These people only need a little clue to make their own plans.
No matter how perfectly you do things, they will still have their own little tricks.
Who cares what they think?
Emperor Tianwu simply summoned several old ministers who were in charge.
Except for two who are middle-aged and strong, the other three are already very old.
But they were still thinking about scheming and sending their daughters and granddaughters to the palace.
After the emperor called them into the imperial study, he just looked at them without saying a word.
Five people stood at the bottom, looking at each other, feeling uneasy.
The matter was discovered by the emperor.
How will the emperor deal with them?
The three old ones among them are old dukes and marquises left over from the previous dynasty.
Now that their children and grandchildren are not valued and seeing the family decline, it is inevitable that they will have evil ideas.
But isn't this human nature?
The emperor can't just kill himself because of this, right?
After a while, Emperor Tianwu asked, "Do you know why you were called in?"
The leader, Duke Chen, was a bachelor and fell to his knees.
"I deserve to die. I have a seventeen-year-old granddaughter in my family. After meeting Your Majesty, she fell in love with Your Majesty..."
The other four people gasped!
What should we do if you play like this?
Whoever has no shame will win?
The other two old men didn't care about anything else. When they saw Emperor Tianwu looking at them, they hurriedly knelt down and said similar words.
One of them even went out of his way to beautify his granddaughter's beauty, gentleness and thoughtfulness.
The two middle-aged officials could no longer hold back, and quickly knelt down to say that their daughter was theirs, because their wives were also the daughters of a wealthy family, and had brought up their daughter very well since she was a child...
He was just short of saying that his daughter was fit to be the queen.
Fu Zhonghai's face was full of emotion and he said, "According to what you said, your daughters are all suitable to enter the palace and become queens?"
The five officials were trembling with fear. They wanted to be humble, but were afraid that if they were really humble, the throne would go to someone else.
They hesitated for a moment and said, "Your Majesty is wise, everything will be decided by you..."
Emperor Tianwu sneered: "What do you mean by my wisdom? What's the point of my decision?"
"I heard that you guys have already discussed it privately?"
"Each of you five families should accept your fate. If one of you becomes the queen, the other four families will definitely be given the title of consort."
"Have you reserved the positions of one queen and four concubines in my harem?"
The five nobles' faces changed drastically: How could His Majesty know about such a conspiracy?
Even the many officials who knelt down with the five families and requested the enthronement of the queen were not aware of this.
Could it be that someone leaked the news?
The five people inevitably looked at each other with suspicion.
Emperor Tianwu snorted coldly: "What on earth do you want to do by trying to guess the emperor's will?"
“Who are you doing this for?”
"Or do you want to plant spies for someone?"
After hearing this, the five people were so frightened that they kowtowed and said they dared not.
Whether they dare or not cannot be proved by just a word from them.
Finally, Emperor Tianwu demoted these five people by one rank, fined them three months' salary, and asked them to go back and reflect on their actions.
At the same time, Emperor Tianwu also ordered their actions to be made public.
When the other officials learned the whole story, they were all shocked!
So we follow you to compete with the emperor, but you have secretly reserved the positions of one queen and four concubines?
So what are we left with?
Think about it again, Emperor Tianwu has just reached middle age, but the position of empress has been vacant for so long, and I have never heard of anyone in the palace being favored...
Is it possible that Emperor Tianwu is not capable?
If this is the case, if I send my daughter to the palace, she won't have the title of empress or concubine, and she won't be favored...
What's the use?
Looking for some people?
Each family was extremely angry and turned their attention to Fu Chenan.
The Crown Princess is about to give birth, and the Crown Prince will definitely need to accompany her during the period after giving birth...
Each family began to curse those old dukes and marquises while coveting the prince.
The Crown Prince, who was completely unaware that he was being worried about, was very busy. He was giving earnest advice to his Crown Princess.
It turned out that it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Xiao Yingchun wanted to visit the grave, but Fu Chenan disagreed.
"Your belly is so big that it blocks your view and you can't even see the road. How are you going to get up that small hill?"
"Besides, you're about to give birth. What if you get emotional and have a miscarriage?"
"There's still a month until the due date."
Giving birth twenty days before the expected date is considered normal.
Before the due date, as long as there are no signs of delivery, the baby will be easier to take care of after it is born if it is kept in the mother's womb for one more day.
Fu Chenan has watched a lot of relevant popular science videos, and now his theoretical knowledge is incredibly strong.
Xiao Yingchun was not happy: "Everyone worships on the 15th day of the seventh lunar month, but I am the only daughter of my parents..."
Fu Chenan: "I'll go."
Xiao Yingchun: “Ah?”
Fu Chenan: "I am the son-in-law. I will go to their graves. I will also take a video to show you, so that you won't say that I cut corners."
"Is it possible?"
Xiao Yingchun didn't expect Fu Chenan to say that.
She stared at Fu Chenan blankly and forgot to react for a moment.
A prince is willing to go to the grave alone...
Fu Chenan stretched out his hand and waved it in front of her eyes: "Hey? What's wrong? Are you happy and silly?"
Xiao Yingchun came back to her senses, slapped his hand away, and said angrily: "What are you wandering around for..."
"I just didn't expect that you would be willing to visit the grave on my behalf."
Fu Chenan chuckled and pulled her into his arms.
"You are my wife, and those are my father-in-law and mother-in-law. Whether you go or not, I should visit their graves."
"It's just that I'm worried about you going. You are in a special period now..."
Fu Chenan's voice was low and soothing, which calmed Xiao Yingchun's heart.
The room was quiet. Xiao Yingchun closed her eyes peacefully and enjoyed the warm embrace.
The phone rang suddenly. Xiao Yingchun opened her eyes and Fu Chenan had already taken the phone.
It’s my aunt.
My aunt's voice was full of concern.
"Yingchun, I made some fried rice dumplings and asked your uncle to bring them to you. Try them and see how they taste."
"If you like it, I'll bring you some more."
Xiao Yingchun was surprised: "Aunt, how do you know I like to eat this?"
My aunt was very surprised: "You like this? That's great..."
After my aunt hung up the phone, my uncle called: he was already outside the door.
Fu Chenan looked at the box of plain-looking dumplings with a hint of doubt.
“Is this delicious?”
Xiao Yingchun picked up a dumpling and stuffed it into Fu Chenan's mouth, then stuffed one into her own mouth. She chewed and swallowed it with satisfaction, then spoke with a smile.
"This is made of fried rice noodles with beans and chili peppers. It's only made during the Mid-Autumn Festival on July 15..."
When my mother was alive, she would always make a pot of this during the Ghost Festival.
I haven't had it since my mom passed away.
My aunt is a good cook, and this fried rice dumplings tastes very good.
Xiao Yingchun ate several before stopping, and Fu Chenan put away the rest.
"If you like it, I'll ask the Imperial Kitchen to make it again. Let the chefs in the Imperial Kitchen figure out how to make it..."
In fact, I didn’t want Xiao Yingchun to eat the leftovers.
He has seen the video and learned that eating leftovers is bad for your health.
Just as Xiao Yingchun put the things in the refrigerator, her phone rang again. It was her aunt Pan Huamei.
Pan Huamei said enthusiastically, "Yingchun, it's the middle of July. I made some fried rice balls at home. Can I bring some to you?"
