852. Chapter 852 Poisonous Plan

The discussion outside the palace was boiling, as if someone was deliberately taking the lead, so that the responsibility for the emperor not leaving half of the show girls this time fell entirely on the queen. Some people said that the queen was afraid that the new show girls who entered the palace would be more beautiful than she was. She was about to give birth to a prince, so she used a trick to exclude all the beautiful girls. Some people said that the queen was trying to win favor, so she did not allow the emperor to have concubines. In short, she made many mistakes, and it was all the queen's fault.

"Have you heard that there is a rumor out there that the Queen will not let other women be visited by the Emperor before she gives birth to a prince?"

"It's rumored so badly outside, I must have heard about it, but it's been so long, and it seems like there's no news about the Queen at all."

"Do you want to turn around because your necks are itchy? You can discuss the Queen too!" the older maid scolded the younger maids who were talking in the corner.

The little maids dispersed without noticing Ye Zhen standing on the other side.

"Your Majesty, please don't take it to heart when a bunch of ignorant little palace ladies talk nonsense." Hongying said to Ye Zhen.

When she heard the palace maids talking, Hongying wanted to go out and scold them, but was stopped by Ye Zhen. She wanted to know how people inside and outside the palace were talking about her now.

"Not everything they said is wrong." Ye Zhen smiled lightly. Mo Rongzhan did not establish a concubine because of her. She had been the queen for several days and was indeed not pregnant yet. No wonder some people were anxious.

However, this incident was quite coincidental. Why did it start to become lively after the Queen Mother left Kyoto?

I don’t know who is the person behind these words.

"The deep love between the empress and the emperor has made some people jealous, so I made up these words to hurt you." Dai Mei said angrily, "According to my slave, we should arrest all these gossiping palace maids to scare the monkeys. No one dares to talk nonsense."

Ye Zhen smiled and said, "What's the use of beating these maids? They are not the real masterminds behind this."

"Empress..." Hongying and Dai Mei both looked at her, wondering what the Empress planned to do next.

"Since everything has been discussed so hotly, the Emperor must have known about it. He will definitely ask someone to investigate." Ye Zhen said quietly. She glanced at her palm and had no intention of continuing to enjoy the scenery in the Royal Garden, "Go back Bar."

"Yes, concubine."

In fact, Ye Zhen is not without worries in her heart. She is proficient in medical skills and knows that her body is in good health in all aspects. She is even better than ordinary people because of the nourishment of the spiritual spring. But why can't she get pregnant?

Before they got married, Mo Rongzhan and her were already married, and even...she even forgot to take contraceptive pills sometimes, but there was no sign of pregnancy, which made her a little worried. Before, she thought it was still possible. You are young, there is no need to worry about this.

However, she is not in a hurry. Some people seem to be more anxious than her. If she, the queen, never gives birth to a prince, then the courtiers will definitely force the emperor to take a concubine.

…

…

In the court, someone finally wrote a memorial about this matter.

"Your Majesty, the heirs of the royal family are the most important thing now. Please accept concubines for the sake of the expansion of the royal family. No more women can control the harem and harm the heirs of the royal family." The speaker was Old Prince An, who was also a member of the Mohist clan. An old man, it is most suitable for him to open this mouth.

"I think what Old Prince An said is reasonable. Your Majesty, heirs are important. Please invite concubines to fill your harem and give birth to a prince as soon as possible." Mr. Liu, who is a cabinet minister, also stood up and said.

Mo Rongzhan glanced at them indifferently, "Others think so too. Do I really need a prince?"

Mr. Xu raised his eyes slightly, stood up and said, "The emperor is in his prime. When he has a prince, it all depends on fate. Besides, the queen has not yet had a legitimate son, so I think there is no need to be too anxious."

When he was in college, Song Qi'an said, "I think Master Xu is right. The emperor is young and vigorous, so why worry about not having a prince? Prince An and Master Liu are both too impatient."

"That's not true!" Old Prince An snorted, "According to the emperor's age, the previous emperor had several princes. Your Majesty, princes are important."

A faint smile appeared on Mo Rongzhan's thin lips, "Prince An, Master Liu, are you afraid that I will die young and there will be no prince to inherit the throne?"

These words scared all the ministers to their knees.

"Your Majesty, I would never dare to have such an idea." Master Liu said in fear.

"If you didn't have such an idea, why would Mr. Liu be so anxious to get the prince? It will take several months for the queen to stay in the palace." Mr. Xu asked calmly.

Mo Rongzhan looked at the people in the court with a smile, but his eyes were cold, "Everyone, get up. Whether I want to have a concubine or when I will have a prince is not something you can control. My eldest son can only be From the Queen, I hope you all remember and don’t easily...curse me to an early death."

Mr. An and Mr. Liu looked at each other, and sweat broke out on their foreheads at the same time. They really underestimated the queen's status in the emperor's mind. For the queen's sake, the emperor had no intention of having a concubine, and it seemed that he had made up his mind to have a queen in the future. His son is the prince.

They have almost lost power now. If the queen's son becomes the prince, the Ye family will surely rise again. If Ye Chunnan makes military exploits again this time...

I can’t imagine how prosperous the Ye family will be in the future.

After going to court, Mr. An and Mr. Liu looked at each other. Both of them bowed their heads and left the hall. However, they gathered together in a secluded teahouse outside the palace not long after. In addition to them, there were other people in the court who had the same opinion as them. of other colleagues.

"It's a good thing that the emperor attaches great importance to the direct descendants. It doesn't matter if the empress and the Ye family are not related by blood. Lu Shiming is of no importance at all. Ding Po Tian is just the head of the country. But the empress is Ye Yiqing's biological daughter. Ye Yiqing kept his only son. It's nothing more than that. I just want to help the Ye family make a comeback. If the Ye family makes a comeback, will we have a good life in the future?" Mr. Liu looked at everyone present and said.

"When the Ye family was in trouble, we were all responsible for reporting the evidence." Someone whispered, "I'm afraid someone will come to settle the score with us."

Prince An nodded, "Yes, we are now afraid that someone will settle the score with us."

"Then what should we do? The emperor refused to accept concubines and gave away all the beautiful girls in marriage. The only daughter who could stay in the palace was Master Liu, but the queen made her a female official. The emperor only favored the queen. What should we do? Deal with the Queen?"

"I heard..." Mr. Liu gave a gloomy smile, "The current Empress is almost exactly the same as the former Empress and her mother?"

"Master Liu, so what?"

"Do you still remember why the emperor hated the late queen? It wasn't because of the trouble caused by the deposed prince. The deposed prince was deeply in love with Ye Zhen. If he met the queen, would he have made a fuss like that before? The emperor thought of the previous humiliation. , Will you continue to favor the queen?" Master Liu asked with a smile.

Prince An looked at him, "It's a vicious plan, but it's very good."

"Hahaha……"
