Chapter 1327 Reserved
In the next few days, all the ministers went to court and found that the emperor seemed to be a different person, and he was very strict. The courtiers felt that going to court was like a punishment.
The most terrifying feeling is that as long as there is a slight mistake, it will be infinitely magnified by the emperor and punished with the most serious punishment.
All the ministers trembled, except for the rest period, the most feared thing every day was going to court.
Originally thought that Xiao Ce was difficult to deal with before, but now they hope that Xiao Ce will return to the past, at least the former Xiao Ce is more kind than now...
Xiao Linzi also told Qin Zhao something about the previous dynasty.
This was within Qin Zhao's expectation.
In the previous life, from the front court to the harem, which one saw Xiao Ce without trembling and his legs went weak? She was probably the only one who was not afraid of death, and dared to tease Xiao Ce, and finally put Xiao Ce to sleep.
Thinking about it now, that's really ignorant and fearless.
Xiao Ce didn't show up in Jinyang Palace recently, so Qin Zhao lived in Jinyang Palace quietly.
In the blink of an eye, it was the eleventh day of March, and Qin Zhao was still sleeping late, when Baozhu suddenly ran over and shook her awake: "Your Majesty, something serious happened!"
Qin Zhao was drowsy and struggled to get up: "What's the matter?"
No, Baozhu said that something big happened, and the only bit of drowsiness she had was swept away: "What big thing happened?!"
"The emperor suddenly conferred the title of His Royal Highness as the crown prince when he came to court today!" Baozhu said enthusiastically.
Qin Zhao was taken aback: "Is it so fast?"
In February, she probably understood that Xiao Ce wanted to designate Xiaoatom as the prince, but she thought it would not be so soon.
"I was shocked when I heard the news." Baozhu patted her chest, but her face was full of joy.
Now it seems that the status of the imperial concubine will be even more noble in the future. After all, she is the birth mother of the prince, so it is no problem to walk sideways in this harem.
"Is there no objection in the court?" Qin Zhao was a little puzzled.
"This... the servant doesn't know." Baozhu thought for a while, and then said: "It has already been canonized, even if someone objects, it can't change the result."
Xiao Linzi also hurried in at this time, and told Qin Zhao in detail about the scene of going to court at that time.
It was nothing more than the moment when the imperial decree was issued, there was a dead silence in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, but no one dared to come out to oppose it, because everyone was frightened by Xiao Ce in the past few days.
In the end, Zhao Yu was the first to stand up and express his opinion.
Zhao Yu is a cabinet minister, so his attitude naturally represents some attitudes of the cabinet.
In fact, other than Zhao Yu, the cabinet ministers didn't want to make a crown prince so soon, because the candidate for the empress hadn't been decided yet, but with Zhao Yu's disturbance and everyone's fear of the emperor Xiao Ce, no one dared to stand up be opposed to.
Later, Xiao Ce named Mr. Liang Ge, and asked Mr. Liang Ge to express his opinion. This time, Mr. Liang Ge did not hesitate, and directly gave three words: "Second minister!"
Once Mr. Liang Ge came out again, he represented the meaning of the entire cabinet.
The cabinet members are all close ministers of the emperor, and their opinions represent the meaning of a large part of officials.
Then all the ministers expressed their opinions, and the little atom easily won the crown prince.
It can only be said that whether an emperor succeeds or not depends on whether his ministers dare to oppose his wishes.
But now Xiao Ce represents the absolute authority of the emperor, no one dares to easily refute his decision. Xiao Ce dared to directly announce the imperial decree to establish a prince in the upper court, without even notifying the cabinet ministers, which shows Xiao Ce's absolute self-confidence.
Qin Zhao was stunned for a moment, then quickly washed and changed his clothes, and then went to report the good news to his son.
If it is an ordinary child who is less than two years old, he must not know what it means to be a prince.
But Xiaoatom was born as a human being, so he naturally understood what it meant to be a prince.
The little guy only asked Qin Zhao back: "Is the mother and concubine happy when the son is established as the crown prince?"
Seeing such a young child asking himself such a serious question, Qin Zhao couldn't help but smile: "Of course. My son is promising, how can a mother be unhappy?"
"That son is also happy." Little Atom replied maturely.
Qin Zhao kissed the child on the top of the head, wondering if he should take Little Atom to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to thank him.
The thought was only fleeting, and she ended up doing nothing.
On the contrary, many concubines came to congratulate upon hearing the news.
Some time ago, after Huang Xianmeng came out of the palace, everyone almost accepted their fate, thinking that this harem was destined to be dominated by Qin Zhao alone.
Now Qin Zhao's son is established as the crown prince, that is to say, even if Xiao Ce dies, Qin Zhao's son will become the emperor. Qin Zhao is undoubtedly the number one winner in the harem. This is a fact that no one can change.
Instead of going against Qin Zhao and having no way out in the end, it is better to surrender to Qin Zhao, at least to be able to spend a lifetime safely in this harem.
This time, everyone was more sincere, and there were fewer people who were unwilling. After all, many people had resigned themselves to their fate.
Qin Zhao welcomed batch after batch of delicate guests, and lunch was later than usual.
Knowing that Qin Zhao has the habit of taking a nap in the afternoon, everyone will not be ignorant and choose to come when Qin Zhao is taking a nap.
In the evening, Wu Xirou did come.
"Congratulations to Your Highness the Crown Prince for becoming the Crown Prince." Wu Xirou said, looked around the room, and asked again: "Will the Emperor come to Jinyang Palace today?"
Qin Zhao looked at Wu Xirou upon hearing the words, Wu Xirou seemed to know what she was thinking, and said directly: "I will be like this in my life anyway, the emperor definitely doesn't like me, but since I am in this palace, if I have the chance to see the emperor once in a while , the days are not so difficult."
To sum it up in one sentence, congratulating the little prince is false, but coming to see Xiao Ce is true.
Qin Zhao was silent and didn't make a sound.
"Are sister and the emperor sick?" Wu Xirou asked again.
Qin Zhao glanced at her lightly, and opened his lips calmly: "Why do you have such doubts?"
"The emperor used to come to see my sister whenever he was free, but recently he hasn't stayed in Jinyang Palace, nor has he seen his sister. This phenomenon is a bit abnormal." Wu Xirou said bluntly.
She is not afraid to let Qin Zhao know that although she will not be favored by the dragon in the future, she can't help but pay attention to Xiao Ce's movements.
In fact, this is also good.
In the past, she always dreamed of being able to serve her bed, but now she has to take a step back, seeing Xiao Ci once in a while will make her happy for a long time, thinking about it is also a good thing.
Qin Zhao looked at Wu Xirou with complicated eyes, feeling that this kind of Wu Xirou was different from the heroine she imagined.
"Sister really quarreled with the emperor?" Wu Xirou asked again.
"I can't quarrel with him." Qin Zhao's voice was flat.
As for Xiao Ce's cold appearance, she was so enthusiastic in her previous life that she couldn't melt his ice. At most, she would reprimand her when she was impatient, or teach her the principles of life.
She felt that Xiao Ce in his previous life treated her more like an elder who hated iron but not steel?
