The next morning
The sunlight shines through the window lattice onto the ground
Forming patches of mottled light and shadow.
The Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Jiang Du, was wearing a dark purple official robe.
A jade-studded belt is tied around the waist
The lady beside him was wearing a simple and elegant light blue dress.
There are several exquisite pearl hairpins on her head
Beautiful face
The couple walked towards the Palace of Heavenly Purity together.
When they arrived at the palace gate
Aunt Ai, who had been waiting for a long time, came over to greet them.
Aunt Ai bowed slightly.
He smiled and said, "Master Jiang, Madam Jiang, please follow me."
After that, she turned around and led the way.
The Governor Jiang and his wife were brought into the palace.
Entering the temple
Governor Jiang and his wife saw the Concubine Chen, Jiang Meiyu, sitting in the upper seat at a glance.
At this time, Jiang Meiyu was wearing a gorgeous red brocade robe.
It is embroidered with exquisite phoenix patterns
Wearing a dazzling phoenix crown
The whole person exudes a noble and elegant temperament.
Seeing parents arrive
Jiang Meiyu immediately showed a warm smile on her face
And stood up to greet him.
"Greetings to Her Majesty, May Her Majesty be well and at peace."
Governor Jiang and his wife knelt down and paid homage in unison.
"Father, Mother, please get up quickly. Please sit down quickly."
Jiang Meiyu quickly stepped forward to help her parents up
Invite them to take a seat warmly.
Then, several well-trained maids filed in.
Holding a tray in hand
There is steaming hot fragrant tea inside.
They walked lightly to the table
He filled the teapots for Governor Jiang and his wife in turn.
Then he retreated quietly.
Jiang Meiyu picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea
He looked at Governor Jiang and asked with concern, "Father, how are you these days?"
Hearing my daughter's greetings
Jiang Du felt warm in his heart
He quickly replied, "Thanks to your concern, Your Majesty, I am in very good health lately. However, now that Your Majesty is pregnant, I am truly worried and concerned for your well-being."
Talking
There was a deep worry in his eyes.
Jiang Meiyu smiled slightly
She said softly and comfortingly, "Don't worry, father. The Emperor cares deeply for his daughter and takes great care of her. She now lives in the Qianqing Palace, has no worries about food and clothing, and is meticulously cared for every day. Everything is fine with the baby in her belly."
"Yu... Your Majesty, I have come to see you this time because I have something I would like to ask of you."
Governor Jiang paused for a moment and then continued.
A hint of flattery appeared on his originally serious face.
"Father, there's no need to be so formal and polite. Just tell me what you want to say."
Jiang Meiyu responded calmly
It seems that he has already seen through the purpose of his father's visit.
I don't want to beat around the bush too much.
The governor nodded slightly.
Then she spoke cautiously, "You see, you are now deeply favored by the Emperor, and you are pregnant with a Dragonborn child. This is a great blessing! We have two younger brothers at home. I wonder if Your Majesty would take the trouble to help them find a good future? That way, when they achieve something in the future, they can serve as a solid support for you, right?"
After saying this, Governor Jiang exhaled lightly.
It was as if a huge stone in my heart had finally fallen to the ground.
Jiang Meiyu heard this
I couldn't help but snort in my heart.
She raised her eyes and glanced coldly at Jiang Du.
A barely perceptible sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth
She said slowly, "Don't worry, father. I have already made plans and arrangements for the future of my two younger brothers."
Hearing my daughter's answer
Governor Jiang was stunned at first.
Then a jubilant smile immediately appeared on his face.
He thanked her repeatedly with excitement: "Oh my, Yu'er, it really is worth all the love and care your father has given you over the years!"
However, Jiang Meiyu seemed a little impatient at this time.
She frowned slightly
She waved her hand slightly wearily and said, "Father, Mother, I feel a little tired today. If you have no other important matters, please go back home first."
Seeing this, the governor nodded in agreement.
Then he took his wife beside him and hurriedly said goodbye and left
He was afraid that staying any longer would annoy the favored empress.
On the long road out of the palace
Madam Jiang kept complaining, "Master, look at your lovely daughter! Now that she's the Emperor's favorite concubine, her eyes have grown to the sky, and she even looks down on us! Back then, she had the audacity to murder my eldest sister. I never publicly rebuked her for such a heinous act! But look at her arrogant attitude towards us today. It's truly chilling! If she doesn't find a good place for our beggar, I will not let this matter go!"
When Jiang Du heard this
Suddenly, his face turned pale with fear
He hurriedly covered Mrs. Jiang's mouth as she was about to continue nagging.
He lowered his voice and said anxiously, "Oh my goodness, my ancestors! How can you casually say such outrageous words here? If those with ulterior motives hear it and spread it to the ears of His Majesty in the palace, my whole family will suffer a catastrophic disaster and even be killed!"
Right now
The idle prince is wandering among the ministers
Lobbying them with eloquent words.
However, most of the ministers have already seen through the truth that the concubine is pregnant.
Know what this means
Therefore, no one was willing to express support for King Xian.
Only a few people
Most of these people were ministers who were not favored by Emperor Longwen on a daily basis.
