Chapter 332 No Longevity
The Queen then said, "Before the Emperor became the Crown Prince, there was a good lady named Fan in the palace. I have never seen her. She was the granddaughter of the Duke of Fu'an. However, she was unlucky and died of illness two months after entering the palace. Now the Fan family has also overturned the case. It was originally wronged. When the Emperor ascended the throne, due to the case of the Fan family, Fan could not be posthumously conferred the title of concubine. Now it is possible. So soon, the Emperor will posthumously confer the title of concubine on her. The ceremony of conferring the title of concubine Shun has already passed. What I mean is that you nine concubines should move forward. It is not good to... have Fan be in front."
The living should come first.
Everyone quickly responded with yes, fully agreeing with the queen's words.
As for what to posthumously honor, no one cares.
He's a dead man anyway.
According to the rules, there are four ranks of the first rank, noble, virtuous, and virtuous, and four ranks of the second rank, but this refers to living people.
If the emperor wants to posthumously confer a title, he can confer as many titles as he wants.
Therefore, the fact that the late Concubine Yi was posthumously conferred the title of Noble Concubine did not prevent Qi Yixiu from appointing another Noble Concubine, and the fact that Fan is about to be posthumously conferred the title of Noble Concubine would not stop the harem from appointing another Second-Rank Concubine.
After greeting each other, everyone went back.
Concubine Rong made an appointment with Shen Chuliu to take a walk in the Imperial Garden.
The three of them went to the Imperial Garden together. It was the time when the flowers were in full bloom. They sat on the lakeside and felt the breeze. Although it was warm, it was comfortable.
"Is Concubine Xin anxious?" Rong Jieyu said with a smile.
"When she first entered the palace, she was as favored as the former Concubine Yi. After all, you are not as favored as her now."
"It's hard to say. The emperor is busy, so we have to go anyway." Shen Chuliu said with a smile.
"That's true, but Concubine Xin is flexible and can be said to be much more stable than Concubine Yi." Concubine Rong said.
In fact, when people in the palace mention Concubine Yi again, they don’t feel much resentment.
"Come to think of it, the punishment for the Deer King hasn't been decided yet?" Yao Baolin said.
"It will probably be soon. Now the Fan family's case is being tried. I think it will be soon. They will definitely not die, but they will suffer if they live." Shen Chuliu shook his head.
"It's not a pity for the Deer King, but it's pitiful for those children." Concubine Rong shook her head.
"It's your own fault."
"By the way, speaking of the Deer King, I admire Lady Miao. When this happened, many people were talkative, but she remained calm." Concubine Rong said.
"It was the emperor's promotion that made her feel at ease. Who could have thought? The wonderful beauty back then is still the wonderful beauty today! What's more wonderful is that the emperor has not doted on her for a long time. It has been a few years now, and the third prince has grown up, and he has actually lifted her up! I'm afraid that Le Shou Palace can't sleep well either." Shen Chuliu said.
"I won't lie to you two. Our emperor... has never been soft-hearted. It's a good thing that your sixth prince was born not too early." Concubine Rong said.
Shen Chuliu smiled and nodded, and Yao Baolin also felt the same way.
The three of them chatted about daily life, and by the time they dispersed, it was almost noon.
After returning to Cuiyunxuan, Yao Baolin said, "I have been thinking about what Rong Jieyu said for a long time. This wonderful beauty... was originally prepared for Concubine Kangde? The emperor actually thought so far ahead?"
"It's not just her. If she doesn't behave herself, I, Li Zhaoyuan, and any other imperial concubine with children will be guarded against. This is not surprising." Shen Chuliu shook her head: "Don't think too much. Learn from Miao Meiren. No matter how big the situation is, she can remain calm. She has changed a lot."
Yao Baolin nodded: "I will definitely not lose my composure in the future. Thank you for your advice, Madam."
Shen Chuliu smiled and went back to her room.
Sure enough, a few days later, the imperial edict came down.
First of all, the result of the Deer King.
He was demoted to a commoner and imprisoned forever in a villa outside the capital.
However, he made his legitimate son a duke. He also arranged for his illegitimate sons. All four daughters were brought into the palace to be educated, but they were not kept with the princes and princesses.
There is no shortage of supplies, but the Deer King will never be able to come out in this lifetime. Having lost his status as a prince, he naturally cannot be buried in the original place in the future.
The second imperial edict was to completely overturn the cases of the Fan family and other families. To restore their reputation and honor. The dead were to be reburied, those who were exiled or sent to various places could be brought back, and the court would rebuild their mansions.
It only proves the innocence, but does not involve the events of the past. The imperial edict says that the matter involves the late emperor, but a son should not speak of his father's fault.
But to put it bluntly, I know my father was wrong, but I can't say it. I can only overturn the verdict because the fault is all my father's.
However, not many people objected. After all, in this way, people like the Feng family who participated in the event back then could rest assured.
This time, the Feng family has suffered great damage.
However, this is a malignant tumor. Although it is covered up now, it may explode again in the future at any time.
That can't be managed for the time being.
The third imperial edict was to posthumously confer the title of Concubine Qi on Fan, directly using the emperor's surname, which was a great honor.
And her body was moved to the concubine's tomb.
In addition, the tomb of the late Duke Fu'an was rebuilt. The direct descendants of the Fan family were basically extinct, and several female family members had committed suicide long ago because they could not bear the humiliation. Finding them all and giving them a proper burial would satisfy Qi Yixiu.
The man from the side branch who submitted the petition on behalf of the Fan family was made an earl, but was responsible for building an ancestral hall for the family of Duke Fu'an.
Later, the Su family, the Huang family and several other families were all rehabilitated.
The Sumerian's father also pursued an earl and buried him well.
It’s a pity that she is the only one left alive among the Su family members.
The emperor did not promote her, but he still stayed with her for a few nights.
Qi Yixiu did everything except suppressing the conspiracy between the new emperor of Chao and the Deer King.
It is not the right time to say it. To say it now is groundless and will only cause disharmony between the two countries.
Therefore, the queen didn't know about this matter.
Of course, the emperor would not doubt the queen. With such a queen, he could never be more worry-free.
It's just that the time has not come yet to say it. The new emperor of Chaoguo is really ambitious, and who knows what kind of waves will arise in the future. The emperor can be basically sure that the queen will stand on his side.
Even if the queen had feelings for her mother's family, she couldn't surpass the second princess. So even for her daughter, she would not forget the Great Yi Dynasty.
What's more, the Dayi Dynasty did not treat her unfairly.
In the harem, Meng Xiaoyi invited the imperial physician. The Yunyan Pavilion was now deserted, but she had changed a lot since being reminded by Concubine Kangde.
Now he is actively cooperating with the imperial physician and he feels much better.
Although he is not destined to live a long life, it is not like it used to be.
Now that he was able to go out and pay respects, he naturally received more rewards. The emperor still had a little sympathy for him, so his life was not that difficult now.
What she was thinking about was hatred. This was how her life had been, so she was not in a hurry. She knew she would take revenge sooner or later.
"Xiao Yi, I just heard from the people in the kitchen that Wen Chongrong asked for health-preserving soup again, and she drinks it every now and then." Qi'er curled her lips.
