Chapter 1245 The Importance of Having a Son
Ordinary days always pass very quickly, at least for Qin Heng, because in this blink of an eye, it is already the end of the year.
He was about to return to the palace.
Manager Feng breathed a sigh of relief. Master Feng felt that life was fast, but he really didn't think so. How could this Long'an Temple be compared with the palace?
The palace is the most prosperous and wealthy place in the dynasty.
He really lives here like a year, but Master Long doesn't think so. He didn't even frown when he had eaten radish and tofu for so long.
Manager Feng was so impressed by them that he was so impressed by the Lord Long Sui. Otherwise, why would he be the Lord Long Sui? It would be impossible for ordinary people like them to compare with them.
"Come back next year." Qin Heng said.
Manager Feng almost fell down and ate shit, but he didn't dare to say anything.
Qin Heng didn't want to do a big deal this year, so he had ordered people to continue his orders and had also told the queen that the queen was responsible for doing things according to the will.
However, Empress Xiao didn't want to be hated by the Queen Mother, so she suggested that this year was the first year of the Queen Mother's return to the palace. Even if it was not big, it would be more festive. Otherwise, she would be rewarded with half a month of monthly money?
Qin Heng had no objection to this.
But even so, Empress Dowager Man was not satisfied. She was the empress dowager. This year was the first year she had returned to the palace, but the emperor had no intention of doing it.
But in fact, it has been held in a big way. This year, she invited many civil and military ministers and family members to the palace to celebrate her birthday.
But Empress Dowager Man is still not satisfied.
When Concubine Luan came to pay her respects, she said, "Empress Dowager, the emperor will return to the palace today."
"The Ai family knows it, but the emperor doesn't hold a big palace banquet this year. It's really not a good time for the New Year!" Empress Dowager Man snorted coldly.
Concubine Luan pursed her lips and said, "Mrs. Don't be angry. The future is long, and there will be more opportunities in the future. This year, the emperor will not do it if he doesn't want to do it."
"You are just focused on the emperor and help the emperor speak!" Empress Dowager Man said angrily.
Concubine Luan hurriedly said, "I am also helping the empress dowager speak. The emperor has just returned from Long'an Temple. He doesn't want to hold a large-scale palace banquet. If there are any words at this time that the empress dowager wants to do it in a big way, it will inevitably lead to the empress dowager's reputation of being extravagant and extravagant. The empress dowager is a Buddhist practitioner, how can she tolerate such slander?"
Empress Dowager Man said, "After saying that you are just talking to the emperor, but it's okay. It's all like this. After all, the emperor will return to the palace today. You have to work harder. I originally wanted to send you to Long'an Temple to accompany you, but the queen refused to let you go. She insisted on leaving the emperor alone in Long'an Temple and had no one to serve him. She said that she was really a 'virtuous queen'!"
There was undisguised mockery in his tone.
She could see clearly the respect she had on Queen Xiao's face, and naturally knew that she was not sincerely filial, and of course she had no hope, let alone no need to.
As long as her son is the emperor, she, the queen, must be respectful to her and dare not be slackened at all.
"The emperor will definitely come to pay tribute to Ai's family as soon as possible when he returns to the palace. At that time, Ai's family will ask him to go to your place. You can seize the opportunity. If you can get pregnant with Longsi, you will have your blessing in the future. Otherwise, no matter how beautiful you are, it will be useless in the end!" Empress Dowager Man said lightly.
Isn’t she the best example herself?
Those who had extremely noble identities and honorable concubines, who had seen her, but the person who had the last laugh in this fight was her.
Because the son she gave birth to was successful!
No one understands the importance of having a son better than Empress Dowager Man.
Concubine Luan was also waiting for the emperor with soft heart.
And she won't leave today and stayed in Cining Palace and waited for the emperor.
Empress Dowager Man was right. Qin Heng came to pay his respects as soon as he returned to the palace and said that the palace banquet would not be held this year and came to ask his mother for forgiveness.
No matter how dissatisfied Empress Dowager Man was dissatisfied in front of Qin Heng, she was generous and said, "You can just do these things with the queen. When the mother is old, she likes quietness. Even if it is lively, you young people will be lively."
Qin Heng said: "My son has instructed the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send the tributes from this year to the queen of mothers. Did the queens receive them?"
"I received it. The Ai family liked it very much, especially the glaze moon. It was really beautiful. The emperor was very interested." Empress Dowager Man said with a smile.
"It's good if the mother likes it." Qin Heng nodded.
"I have been staying in Long'an Temple these days, but the emperor has lost a lot of weight. The meals at Ai's family are always light. Concubine Luan, you will take the emperor over to your meal later. Be sure to prepare some good food for the emperor to use." Empress Dowager Man explained.
Since Qin Heng came in, Concubine Luan, whose eyes were stuck to him, immediately came to her senses and gently and softly said: "I will explain it now."
"Well, go." Empress Dowager Man nodded.
Concubine Luan went down first, and Empress Dowager Man said to Qin Heng: "The Ai family has always been concerned about you all these days when you are not in the palace. Concubine Luan is still filial. She comes to the Ai family from time to time to be filial. Princess, you must treat Concubine Luan well."
"Concubine Luan is indeed a gentle person." Qin Heng said.
Empress Dowager Man smiled and was very happy, saying, "The Ai family has always been very sorry that you and Concubine Luan could not save the child last time, otherwise they would have to give birth now. The Ai family hasn't seen a newborn child for a long time. Prince, you must follow the wishes of your mother when you come back this time."
Qin Heng said: "Tomorrow, let the princes and princesses come over to pay their respects to their mother."
"That's fine." Empress Dowager Man said with a smile.
Qin Heng didn't want to have a baby anymore. Including Xiaojiu who was raising outside, he already had nine sons and seven princesses, so what else he wanted to force it, it doesn't matter whether the rest of the birth or not.
He wouldn't want it deliberately, but if he had it, he would give birth.
He knew that the Empress Dowager wanted him to go to Wutongyuan, so he also gave him face and asked someone to go to Fengqi Palace to say so, and he took Luan Concubine to Wutongyuan.
Naturally, I also rested in Wutong Garden at night.
Zi Su couldn't help but say, "The emperor respects the empress. He was going to come to Fengqi Palace to rest, but after going to Cining Palace, he went to Wutong Garden. I'm afraid the empress dowager asked the emperor to go to Wutong Garden!"
Queen Xiao's face was light, and she couldn't understand it in her heart. It must be the empress dowager, but that was the empress dowager. Whatever she could do?
These are things that can be tolerated, so let it be tolerated.
The spring breeze in the evening called for Concubine Luan to come to pay her respects the next day, and her complexion was different, which made the other concubines really jealous and sour.
