Chapter 1133 The Queen’s Thoughts
Just at this time, Nan Yan also went out.
Hearing the noise here, she turned her head and saw several palace maids guarding outside the Magnolia Hall. It seemed that there had been a conflict between them and Qin Ruolan, and both sides looked unhappy.
What happened?
Although she was puzzled, looking at the sky, it was almost time for the family banquet. As a noble concubine, it would not be good for her to be late, so she did not ask any more questions. She just went to Yishou Hall first with a little doubt.
Just then I saw Xu Miaoyin walking out.
"Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen."
"The imperial concubine is here too."
"Yes, I want to go with you."
Xu Miaoyin glanced at her with a smile, nodded, and said, "You are the one who knows the rules and is sensible."
“…”
Nan Yan's heart was slightly moved by these words. She subconsciously thought of what had just happened at Yulan Hall. Xu Miaoyin saw her expression and knew what she had seen. As the two of them walked forward, she said, "You saw it too, right? I sent someone over to keep an eye on Madam Qin."
"Yes. I just don't know why the Queen did this."
Xu Miaoyin said coldly: "She talks too much."
“…”
"Before, I was talking nonsense in front of the emperor to confuse him."
“…”
"Now, you are making false statements about the King of Wei's background."
Nan Yan immediately understood.
Qin Ruolan had previously gone to Zhu Feng to expose her own negative information, and it was through Jian Ruocheng that Xu Miaoyin reminded her in advance, but she did not show up in person. After all, the incident had not yet happened to her, and as the queen, she did not want to take action against a lady Qin who had no status.
But this time—
Qin Ruolan ran to Zhu Feng and talked about King Wei's life experience?
This really hit the Queen's nerves.
No wonder she took action right away.
Nan Yan frowned and thought for a moment before saying, "The Emperor already knows—"
"Um."
"What does the Queen intend to do?"
Xu Miaoyin sighed and said, "Actually, I didn't intend to hide this matter from the Emperor, but things have their priorities, so some things naturally need to be discussed later."
“…”
"But no matter what, it's not someone else's turn to go over my head."
Nan Yan glanced at her.
Although this daughter of a general appears to be pleasant and quiet on ordinary days, she is ruthless when she takes action.
Nan Yan was just a little worried: "Then, what if she really asks to be recognized by the King of Wei?"
“…”
Xu Miaoyin's footsteps paused slightly.
Then she said, "I have never minded them recognizing each other as mother and son, but, King Wei——"
Having said that, she stopped talking.
But Nan Yan had already felt a little chill, which emanated from her body and even directly reached her heart, causing her to shudder slightly.
She realized that Xu Miaoyin was already considering the issue of King Wei's position as Crown Prince.
As the queen, of course she had to consider everything for Zhu Feng, but it was impossible for her to completely ignore her own problems. After all, she had no biological son. Whether her position as queen mother would be stable in the future would depend on who Zhu Feng appointed as the crown prince.
Right now, of course, there is no second choice.
Zhu Chengxuan was originally raised by her and treated her as his mother. In the future, it would be natural for her to be the empress dowager.
However, if Qin Ruolan insisted on recognizing Zhu Chengxuan, Xu Miaoyin would most likely no longer support him as the crown prince, but would turn to other concubines in the harem, let them give birth to sons, adopt them on her behalf, and then enthrone them as the crown prince.
After all, Zhu Feng is still in his prime.
There is still time for everything.
Nan Yan couldn't help but sigh in her heart, thinking: Qin Ruolan, you want everything, but have you ever thought that one day you may not get anything?
At this moment, there was a flash of light ahead.
Looking up, they saw that they had already arrived at the entrance of the hall. The lights were on inside, and a round table was placed in the center, surrounded by guards and palace maids.
The two of them walked in.
The lobby was filled with warm fragrance, and as soon as you walked in you could feel the spring air, which was very comfortable.
However, the chill in her heart could not be dispelled. Nan Yan vaguely felt that if the matter was not handled properly, there would be more trouble in the harem and the court.
At this time, Xiao Shunzi's voice was heard outside.
"The Emperor has arrived."
The two of them turned around hurriedly and saw Zhu Feng walking in from outside.
Following behind him were three people, who were his cousins who had come with Taoist Master Shouzhen yesterday.
The lobby was already brightly lit, and the appearance of the three people made it even brighter.
It goes without saying that Zhu Feng himself is a handsome man. The three cousins behind him are almost the same in stature as him. Each of them is as tall as a pine tree, with a handsome face. In addition, as young people, they have a strong energy, so when they walked in, they were particularly imposing.
Among them, the young man following closely behind him was his eldest cousin Chen Zixiao.
This man had a stern face, and even the way he looked at people was a little cold. He had a natural arrogance, but he was also the oldest among the three, and the other two younger brothers followed him.
Chen Yilu, who followed behind him, was the son of the second brother of the late Queen Chen. Although he was wearing a Taoist robe with a Taoist style, he looked more like a Confucian scholar. His kind smile made people feel a sense of closeness to him.
The young man walking at the back is called Chen Xuan.
He is the adopted son of the old uncle of the emperor. Strictly speaking, he is not a royal relative, but because he grew up with the old uncle of the emperor, the old uncle of the emperor treated him as his own son. Because of the court, it is not easy to neglect Zhu Feng.
He was the youngest, at most twenty years old, handsome and a little gentle.
There was even a hint of innocence in his eyes.
Although they are not true descendants of the dragon, after all, they have practiced in the mountains for so many years, and these three young men look very outstanding.
Xu Miaoyin and Nan Yan stepped forward and saluted together: "Your Majesty."
"No need to be so polite."
Zhu Feng raised his hand, and after the two of them stood up, the three brothers kowtowed to them again: "Greetings to the Empress, Greetings to the Imperial Concubine."
Both sides exchanged greetings.
Zhu Feng said, "Today is just a family dinner. We are all relatives, so there is no need for so many false formalities between the monarch and his subjects."
"yes."
"Come, take a seat."
After saying that, he waved his hand and took them to sit down.
The empress and the imperial concubine naturally sat on the left and right of the emperor, while several cousins sat on the lower side. Although they were relatives, there was a difference between men and women after all, so there was still a seat between them and the empress and the imperial concubine.
In this way, a round table seemed to divide them into two parts.
