The Favoured Medical Princess: 247 Passionate

www.lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Sheng Chong's Daughter-in-law: The Medical Concubine!

The day was not even half over when the news that the fifth prince chose to read as a companion spread throughout the government and the public as quickly as possible.

From the royal family to the nobles and even the ministers of the court, it seems that only now did they realize that the legitimate son of the middle palace, who had always been hidden from others due to his frailty, had actually reached the age of choosing a reading companion. No, in fact, it had been long ago The choice should have been made, but it was delayed because the fifth prince was weak.

The fifth prince's choice of companion was like a huge stone dropped, making the already unstable situation in the court even more confusing.

From the three grown-up princes to the civil and military officials, everyone couldn't help but speculate.

Even Nangong Qin specially called his second brother Nangong Mu to the outer study after going to court.

The two brothers sat across the table. Nangong Qin took a sip of tea and asked straight to the point: "Second brother, what do you think of the fifth prince's choice of reading companion?"

Nangong Mu thought thoughtfully and said: "When the fifth prince is old, it is natural to choose a reading companion. The key is which one to choose?"

Nangong Qin nodded. Everyone knows that once a prince chooses a companion, not only the companion, but also the family of the companion will be inclined to this prince, just like the companions of the eldest prince, second prince and third prince. Du, are now their confidants, so the choice of the fifth prince's companion will inevitably have a certain impact on the division of the situation between the DPRK and China.

Nangong Mu pondered for a moment and asked, "Brother, does he know which companies the Queen will choose from?"

Nangong Qin Ningmei replied: "Judging from the information revealed by several ministers in the court, it is probably the Duke of Enguo and his in-laws."

This is not surprising to the two brothers. According to the Queen's protection of the fifth prince, she must let go of people she trusts.

Nangong Mu thought for a while, and then said: "Brother, since the emperor personally chooses a reading companion for the fifth prince, does it mean..." The Sacred Heart began to favor the fifth prince?

Nangong Qin understood the implication of his second brother's words, nodded and said: "The injustice of the legitimate concubines is the source of chaos in the family and the country. The emperor should have made the distinction between legitimate concubines and concubines long ago. Now the three older princes are privately He keeps making small moves, and the emperor has obviously noticed it. No matter how upright he is, chaos may be inevitable in the future." However, it turns out that the fifth prince is weak, and it is hard to say whether he will grow up, so the emperor should have some concerns. Now, the fifth prince As he grew up, the emperor's heart should also be determined.

"What the eldest brother said is true." Nangong Mu lowered his eyes slightly and thought, "I'm afraid it will be difficult for the fifth prince to choose a companion to become the legitimate son, unless..."

The two brothers had the same idea: Unless they establish a prince!

While they were talking, the maid who was waiting in the study came in and announced: "The eldest master, the second master, the second young master and the third aunt are here!"

Why are their brothers and sisters here? Brother Nangong Qin glanced at each other, and after being stunned for a moment, Nangong Qin hurriedly said: "You haven't invited the second young master and the third aunt to come in yet."

After the maid left, Nangong Xin and Nangong Yue walked into the study room one after another. Nangong Xin, who was fifteen years old, was more than half a head taller than her sister. Their appearance was about half or six times similar. They are both made of pink and jade, with red lips and white teeth. You can tell they are two brothers and sisters at a glance.

Nangong Mu looked at his children and his heart was filled with pride and satisfaction.

After Nangong Xin and Nangong Yue saluted their uncle and father, they also sat down.

Nangong Qin asked with a smile: "Brother Xin, Yue'er, why are you two here suddenly?"

Nangong Yue gave Nangong Xin an encouraging look, and Nangong Xin looked at Nangong Qin and Nangong Mu, and said seriously: "Uncle, dad, I want to be the fifth prince's companion!"

This time, Nangong Qin and Nangong Mu were really surprised. They had just thought that the Fifth Prince's selection of study companions had little to do with the Nangong Mansion, but they did not expect that it would actually have something to do with the Nangong Mansion.

Before the elders could ask questions, the upright Nangong Xin explained the matter from beginning to end.

Nangong Yue kept looking at her brother with a smile. After coming out of the queen's place, she originally wanted to go find Lin first, but she changed her mind at the last moment. Nangong Xin is already fifteen years old, old enough to discuss marriage. If a man wants to start a family and start a career, how can he let Lin take the decision in everything? Nangong Xin must learn to grow up.

So, Nangong Yue directly told Nangong Xin one by one about the queen’s intention to appoint him to accompany the fifth prince... and then came here - this matter related to the Nangong Mansion, and naturally it was not their brother and sister’s decision. of.

After explaining the whole story, Nangong Xin said again: "Uncle, dad, can I be the fifth prince's companion?"

The two brothers exchanged glances, both looking thoughtful.

For today's Nangong family, it is most appropriate to avoid the turmoil in the court. However, it is the duty of a minister to be a legitimate concubine. It would be fine if there is no legitimate son. Since there is a legitimate son, how can we only let the legitimate son be publicized? ?

……

From the moment there was news in the palace that a reading companion was to be selected for the fifth prince, the ministers’ eyes were fixed on the emperor’s next move. After another three days, the emperor personally selected the emperor in the ministers’ homes. Several candidates were selected to accompany the reading.

Jiang Mingqing from Enguo Palace, Qi Zheng from Qi Palace... plus Nangong Xin from Nangong Palace, there are six people in total.

After the news came out, the courtiers were all confused and could not understand the criteria for selecting people for the emperor and empress. Why was Nangong Xin from Nangong Mansion also among the candidates for the companionship? The fifth prince was only nine years old, and Nangong Xin Already fifteen years old, this age is a bit too old!

Not only the courtiers found it strange, but even everyone in the Nangong family was puzzled when they learned about the list, wondering whether Nangong Yue was begging for his brother and wanted Nangong Xin to get rid of the fool. title, no one thought that Nangong Xin would actually be selected. After all, his age was there, except for Nangong Qin and Erfang's family who knew about it.

The candidates will all enter the palace and be examined by the emperor and empress in person, and two of them will be selected as the fifth prince's companions.

Everyone is waiting for this result, and Nangong Yue is no exception.

On the day Nangong Xin entered the palace, Nangong Yue had been a little absent-minded since she got up early in the morning. Although she knew that if there were any results, someone would come to report her as soon as possible, she still couldn't help but look out the door. The account book has not turned a page for a long time.

Baihui brought tea into the small study and persuaded with a smile: "Prince Princess, do you want to rest for a while?"

"That's fine." Nangong Yue put down the account book, cleaned her hands, picked up a piece of rose cake and put it in her mouth.

She has already seen most of these account books, so it doesn't matter whether she sees the rest or not.

The old King of Zhennan had only passed away a few years ago, and the stewards of Zhuangzi began to treat the master as if he were a fool. In the first one or two years, the accounts they brought up were carefully settled, and the further they went, the more... It was perfunctory, outrageous, and full of mistakes.

Nangong Yue felt a little annoyed when she thought of this.

These unscrupulous slaves must be punished, but how to punish them was a headache for her.

After all, they have all stayed since the time of Old Town Nanwang. If they are not handled properly, it will be detrimental to Xiao Yi's reputation.

She has to plan carefully.

It would be great if Xiao Yi was here, there is someone who can discuss it. But if he told Xiao Yi about this matter, he would wave his hand casually and say, "Just withdraw, if you dare to make trouble, you will be beaten again"... Thinking of this, Nangong Yue couldn't help but chuckle.

With such a smile, he felt much better and asked the maids to collect all the account books.

Nangong Yue had tea and rested for half an hour, but there was no news from the palace yet.

Everything that needed to be done was done in the morning, and Nangong Yue didn’t want to look at the account book anymore, so she casually leaned against the window and started talking. Seeing her listless look, Lily smiled and jokingly talked about interesting things in the royal capital recently.

"Prince Princess, Miss Cui sent a lot of messages to the noble ladies in the capital the day before yesterday and during the hairpin banquet."

This Miss Cui will be the future third prince's concubine.

Nangong Yue raised her eyebrows slightly and guessed casually: "Could it be that Miss Cui also posted a message to my cousin?"

"Prince Princess, you are so smart, you guessed it right away." Lily praised her with a smile, and then added, "But my cousin didn't go that day, which made Miss Cui very embarrassed."

Nangong Yue couldn't help but be surprised. Cui Yanyan was the future third prince's concubine, while Bai Muxiao was just a concubine who was ordered to serve in the palace. She openly humiliated Cui Yanyan at the hairpin banquet in front of so many people, and she wasn't afraid of having a hard time in the future?

However, as far as Bai Muxiao is concerned, it is not surprising that he would do this.

Bai Muxiao has always looked down upon being a concubine, so if she was asked to sacrifice her self-esteem to make love to Cui Yanyan, she would definitely refuse.

Lily said mysteriously: "...When the girls who went to the Ji Banquet that day came back, they all spread the word that Miss Cui couldn't even hold a concubine."

Nangong Yue chuckled, Cui Yanyan's wishful thinking was good, she wanted to overpower Bai Muxiao before she entered the third prince's house, but she didn't expect that it was Bai Muxiao who she met.

Let’s see what happens to these two people in the Third Prince’s Mansion in the future.

"There's more, Crown Princess..."

Nangong Yue listened with interest as Lily spoke enthusiastically. Only halfway through the stitching, Que'er came to report: "Prince Concubine, my eldest aunt and uncle are here."

Big sister is here?

Nangong Yue was a little surprised. It was quite rude to visit suddenly without giving a greeting card in advance. Obviously, Nangong Cheng did this because of something serious.

It's just that the eldest brother-in-law... Xiao Yi was not in the house, and it was really inconvenient for her to entertain Pei Yuanchen, so she asked Lily to go to the front yard, asked Zhu Xing to help greet him, and then welcomed Nangong Cheng in.

"Big sister." Nangong Yue personally went to the front of Fufengyuan to greet her. Nangong Cheng said with an apologetic look, "Third sister, I came to disturb you suddenly. I really..."

"Sisters, what are you talking about?" Nangong Yue pulled her into the banquet room in the main room, invited her to sit down on the beauty's couch, and said, "The prince is not here, so I can only wrong my brother-in-law in the outer courtyard. Sit down for a while."

Nangong Cheng nodded, which was natural.

The maid brought tea and snacks. Nangong Cheng winked at Shuxiang and Mo Xiang. The two maids stepped back knowingly. Seeing this, Nangong Yue knew that she had something to say, so she waved her hand to let people in the room. Everybody quits.

Until they were the only two sisters left in the house, Nangong Yue asked straight to the point: "Sister, what happened to Jian'an Bo Mansion?"

Nangong Cheng smiled bitterly and said, "My second sibling has had a miscarriage."

Nangong Yue was slightly surprised, and then heard her say: "Today, the prince and I were wandering in the garden, and happened to meet the second uncle and the second younger brother and sister. They seemed to have some trouble, and the second younger brother and sister suddenly ran away from behind the rockery. When she came out, I couldn't avoid it, so I bumped into her. Then, the second sibling complained of abdominal pain, and not long after calling the doctor, she had a miscarriage."

Nangong Cheng was quite reserved, but in fact, she and Pei Yuanchen were enjoying the flowers and chatting happily. However, Lu Jiaqi, the second young lady of the Cui family, rushed out from behind the rockery in tears. Pei Yuanchen's wheelchair was extremely heavy and she was weak and could not push him out of the way in time, so she was hit by Lu Jiaqi.

This matter had nothing to do with them, it was just an accident. But after Lu Jiaqi had a miscarriage, the second wife went directly to their yard and said that they deliberately caused Lu Jiaqi to have a miscarriage.

Nangong Cheng sighed slightly and said: "The house was really noisy, so my mother asked me to take the prince out for a walk. After much thought, I had no choice but to disturb my third sister."

Nangong Yue frowned lightly and immediately discovered the key point: "But what disrespectful words did the second room have?" Otherwise, why would he let a dignified prince avoid the house.

Nangong Cheng said with a wry smile: "To be honest with Third Sister, the Second Madam came to our yard and scolded the Crown Prince over and over again, saying..." She was a little embarrassed to say it, and finally gritted her teeth and said, "She said that the Crown Prince is already disabled. After using it, he still clings to the title of heir apparent. If he can’t give birth to a child, he won’t let others have children..."

Nangong Cheng is a girl raised by a noble family. Even if she is just paraphrasing such filthy words, she cannot say them out loud.

In fact, there is another sentence that Nangong Qing did not say, that is, Mrs. Pei even said out loud, "I should die early." Although Pei Yuanchen is open-minded, he cannot stay in the house and let them abuse! Therefore, Mrs. Jian Anbo asked her to take Pei Yuanchen out and wait until everything in the house was settled before going back.

"That's unreasonable." Nangong Yue said angrily, "Do you really think that our Nangong family has no one?! Eldest sister, you should go back to your parents' home and let my mother and sister-in-law come forward for you to build the Amber Mansion and that Pei Er Madam, I have a good argument. How can I, the girl from the Nangong family, let others bully me!"

"Third sister." Nangong Cheng took her hand and said, "That's why I didn't go back to my parents' home. My mother treated me very well, just like her own daughter. She has already said that this matter will be left to her to handle. , it’s always inappropriate for me to go back to my parents’ house to complain.”

If she returned to Nangong Mansion today, and Su or Lin asked her, she would have to answer. In order to avoid trouble, she avoided Nangong Yue's place.

Seeing Nangong Yue frowning in disapproval, Nangong Cheng said again: "Don't worry, Third Sister, I won't let others bully me. If it's difficult for my mother to handle this matter properly, I will definitely go back. Report to the second aunt."

Nangong Yue then nodded slightly and asked thoughtfully: "Why is Mrs. Pei doing this?"

"Perhaps it was because of the fact that the second brother was listed as a companion." Nangong Cheng said with a slight hesitation, "Previously, the second brother was persuading several clan elders to agree to change the heir apparent. It is said that some clan elders are already moved, but Since the news about beating the second brother came out, they all rejected it outright."

After all, Nangong Cheng, the wife of the eldest son of Jian'an Bo Mansion, is the eldest daughter of the Nangong family and the eldest sister of Nangong Xin.

"So that's it..." Nangong Yue finally understood and said comfortingly, "Sister, don't worry, just stay with me for a while. If you are worried about the prince, I will have someone stay in the front yard. Let me tidy up a yard for you to rest in."

"Don't bother me anymore, sister." Nangong Cheng said with a smile, "I..."

While talking, Magpie ran in happily and said happily, "My eldest concubine, my aunt is very happy. Our second uncle has been personally chosen by the emperor to accompany the fifth prince!"

"Great!"

Sisters Nangong Cheng and Nangong Yue couldn't help but look at each other and stood up overjoyed.

Nangong Yue was even more ecstatic, she knew that her brother would never be worse than others!

The candidates for the fifth prince’s companions have been officially determined—Jiang Mingqing from the Jiang family and Nangong Xin from the Nangong family. This matter quickly spread throughout the government and the public, and also reached the palace of Princess Yongyang. When Mrs. Fu learned the news, she couldn't believe her ears.

"You said Nangong Xin, the second young master of Nangong Mansion was selected as the fifth prince's companion?" Mrs. Fu couldn't help but ask again.

Mother Mo glanced at Fu Yunyan, who could not hide her joy beside Madam Fu, with a complex look, nodded and said, "Yes, Madam." After a pause, she added, "I heard that the Emperor is in the imperial palace. The study room tested the knowledge and character of six young masters, and selected the second young master Nangong on the spot."

The requirements for the prince's companionship are very high. After all, it is probably to select close ministers and confidants for the future emperor. Even if he is not the most outstanding scholar among the candidates, he must be knowledgeable enough and have outstanding character, otherwise it will not count If you pass the emperor's test for a while, you will have to show up to the Taifu in the future, so it is impossible to fish in troubled waters.

Seeing that his mother couldn't hide the surprise on her face, Fu Yunyan said proudly: "Mom, I just said it, Ah Xin is not a fool, you don't believe it!"

Mrs. Fu did not speak, but was thoughtful. Thinking of the few times she had met Nangong Xin, he did speak clearly and logically, and he did not look too stupid, but sometimes he would show a particularly innocent and childish expression. The sentence...could it be said that it was just a matter of personality? Think about it, Liu Niang can be very angry as a child sometimes.

If this issue is put aside, Nangong Xin may not be inappropriate for Liu Niang...

Mrs. Fu felt a little irritable. On the one hand, she felt that since she had refused, she should not consider Nangong Xin anymore. On the other hand, she was really worried about Liu Niang's marriage.

After all, because of Princess Qi's deliberate publicity, many people in the capital thought that the Fu family was going to marry Prince Qi. Even if he spread the news to deny the matter, the damage had already been done.

When it comes to marriage, some rumors may not matter to the man, but to the daughter's family, any slight disturbance may ruin the reputation. Originally, Mrs. Fu was not in a hurry about Fu Yunyan's marriage and thought she could take her time to pick it out. But now she is afraid that she will drag Fu Yunyan into a big girl without even having a chance to choose. It will be too late to regret it later. !

At this moment, Mrs. Fu is not the only one who is troubled, but also Han Lingfu...

After learning that the emperor had chosen Nangong Xin to accompany the fifth prince, Han Lingfu immediately left the palace in a hurry and went to Zhang Mansion.

As soon as he saw Zhang Mianzhi, Han Lingfu said with an ugly face: "Uncle, you heard it, my father chose Nangong Xin to be the companion of the fifth emperor brother!"

After Zhang Mianzhi and Zhang Yiyu saluted, the former welcomed him into the study with a solemn expression.

After sitting down, Zhang Mianzhi frowned and said, "Your Highness, this is too bad for us. That Nangong Xin is the brother of the Crown Princess of Zhennan. The Crown Princess of Zhennan originally had a good relationship with the Queen, but now Nangong Xin has become the fifth prince's companion, and the fifth prince is really more powerful than a tiger." He was panicking, and the more he thought about it, the less he dared to think about it, "Does the emperor really want to make this arrangement..."

The rest of his words were not spoken, but everyone present understood what he meant, and the same thought came to mind:

Is the emperor paving the way for the future of the fifth prince?

Han Lingfu's face was as dark as water. In the past few days, he could vaguely feel that the emperor was becoming increasingly cold to him. This made him a little uneasy. Now that the emperor has made such arrangements for the fifth emperor's brother, it is even more... It makes him feel that there are many dangers. If this continues, he will only get further and further away from the seat of the Supreme...

How could he be willing to do so! ?

Han Lingfu asked slowly: "Uncle, what should we do in this situation?"

"Your Highness, in my opinion, the Nangong Mansion can be put aside for the time being," Zhang Mianzhi said thoughtfully, "Nangong Qin does not want to be involved in the struggle for the right to inherit the throne...otherwise..." As he spoke, He gave Han Lingfu a meaningful look.

Han Lingfu understood what he meant. Otherwise, Nangong Qin would have married Nangong Cheng to him long ago... But Nangong Qin was stubborn and refused to even agree to adopt Bai Muxiao, so he let him and Bai Muxiao fell into the current predicament.

Thinking of this, Han Lingfu's eyes were as dark as a deep pool.

"As for Zhennan Prince's Mansion," Zhang Minzhi said solemnly, "it depends on how the Prince of Zhennan's trip to southern Xinjiang will turn out. If Xiao Yi returns with power and Nangong Yue pulls the strings, it might really happen. Let the Queen form an alliance with the Zhennan Palace." Zhang Mianzhi sighed, with a complex expression on his face, "It would be great if the Emperor agreed to the marriage."

"Father, it won't help to talk about this now." Zhang Yiyu, Zhang Mianzhi's eldest son, said thoughtfully, "Since we broke up with Xiao Yi that day, we should have thought of such a day. The top priority now is How to make up for it. Since the 'concurrent marriage' is no longer feasible, we still have to think about other ways. If Xiao Yi is on the side of the fifth prince, it will be quite detrimental to my cousin."

Han Lingfu nodded in agreement, and a thought flashed through his mind: He shouldn't have believed Xiao'er's words that day and set up that trap. However, this thought passed away in a flash. After all, Xiaoer just wanted to help him. Who knew that Xiao Yi would have the opportunity to return to Southern Xinjiang and take charge of the overall situation!

"Although Xiao Yi is married, Princess Yaoguang is still young after all, and there will always be someone around Xiao Yi to take care of her." Han Lingfu thought, looked at Zhang Minzhi, and asked, "I wonder if my uncle would be willing to take care of his cousin. ?"

Zhang Yiren is the legitimate second daughter of Zhang Mianzhi. She is both talented and beautiful, and is quite famous in the royal capital.

Zhang Mianzhi was startled for a moment, then realized that Han Lingfu wanted to marry Zhang Yiren to Xiao Yi as his concubine.

Although she is a concubine, Princess Yaoguang is still two years away from marrying Ji. If Zhang Yiren enters the palace and gives birth to the eldest son first, then Xiao Yi, the Zhang family, and even the third prince can be tied together. .

Zhang Mianzhi stroked his beard and said: "Of course I can give it up."

Han Lingfu nodded with satisfaction and said: "This matter needs to be carefully planned." He paused and then said, "...Besides, uncle, how was your chat with Zhao Shilang of the Ministry of Work last time?"

"That Zhao Xinyang," Zhang Minzhi showed displeasure and raised his voice slightly, "is simply a wallflower. As soon as he heard that the fifth prince was going to choose a reading companion, he started to be ambiguous when talking about serious matters with him, forcing him to I started fighting with you, and even asked about your cousin’s marriage. I want your cousin to marry his daughter, which is a great idea!”

"Forget it." Han Lingfu looked calm.

Zhang Yiyu is the most promising next generation of the Zhang family. It is not worth it to win over a loser like Zhao Xinyang in marriage.

There are many good candidates for marriage, such as Zhu Erniang, the daughter of General Zhu of the Guannei Guard, and Fu Yunyan of Princess Yongyang's Mansion, who are still waiting to be married.

Thinking of Fu Yunyan, Han Lingfu asked Zhang Minzhi tentatively: "Uncle, what do you think of the girl from Princess Yongyang's house about her cousin's marriage?"

"Is Your Highness referring to the sixth girl of the Fu family?" Zhang Minzhi raised his eyebrows, "That Fu Yunyan who was rumored to be discussing marriage with the Prince of Qi, but Mrs. Fu later denied the matter?"

Zhang Yiyu put down the tea cup in his hand, squinted his eyes, and sighed: "Princess Qi is pressing hard to marry the eldest princess Yongyang, but if we come to ask for marriage, we will offend Qi. The palace." He glanced at Han Lingfu and said, "Has your highness thought about it?"

Proposing to marry Fu Yunyan at this moment would naturally offend Prince Qi's palace. However, thinking of being able to win over Princess Yongyang, Han Lingfu felt that this deal was still a good deal.

Han Lingfu smiled nonchalantly and said: "What's there to be afraid of? There are hundreds of girls in the family asking for help, and Fu Yunyan's marriage has not been decided yet. It is reasonable for his uncle to come to propose marriage... But we can wait a little longer. Now there are rumors If the rumor is true or false, it will inevitably damage Fu Yunyan's reputation. We can wait until Mrs. Fu becomes anxious before we can get things done."

The three of them looked at each other and smiled determinedly.

At this moment, the nervous voice of a chamberlain suddenly sounded outside the door: "Your Highness, this servant has something important to report!" This chamberlain was a young **** who usually served the third prince. He knew that the third prince was discussing important matters with the Zhang family and his son, but he If you still come here to disturb me, then this matter must be really serious.

Han Lingfu and the Zhang family looked at each other and said hurriedly: "Xiao Lizi, come in."

Xiao Lizi walked in with a pale face, even trembling slightly. Han Lingfu had never seen Xiao Lizi like this before, and couldn't help but feel a sinking heart.

Xiao Lizi leaned down respectfully and reported in a trembling voice: "Your Highness... Your Highness, the second princess, she, she..." He could hardly speak.

"What's wrong with Sister Huang?" Han Lingfu asked hurriedly.

Xiao Lizi took a deep breath and finally finished her words in one breath: "The second princess is dead!"

The second princess is dead? !

This news made the three people in the study buzz in their ears, and they almost suspected that they were dreaming.

Han Lingfu wanted to question Xiao Lizi again, but how dare Xiao Lizi lie about such a big matter.

Han Lingfu rushed out of Zhang's study with a pale face. He must return to the palace as soon as possible!

At the same time, Nangong Yue of Zhennan Palace also received the news.

When she heard this, she didn't come back to her senses for a while. The second princess was just gone? Although she had heard in Fengluan Palace a few days ago that the second princess was seriously ill in the imperial mausoleum, both the queen and she thought it was the second princess who was playing tricks. After all, this was not the first time for the second princess. I didn’t expect to play such a trick...

Nangong Yue said with a solemn expression: "Baihui, tell Zhu Xing to let the people in the palace pay attention."

"Yes, Crown Princess." Baihui responded and quietly retreated.

Nangong Yue walked back and forth in the small study irritably. Although people paid attention to her, she still couldn't calm down. There was a vague premonition in her heart, and she always felt that something was about to happen...

Although the death of the second princess caused some ripples in the hearts of some people, it did not cause much noise in the court and the royal capital.

In the morning of the second day, another thing happened like a huge rock suddenly falling, causing a storm.

In the Jinluan Palace, under the attention of all the officials, the Minister of Rites presented to the emperor and asked for the decree to appoint the fifth prince, the legitimate son of the middle palace, as the crown prince.

In the past, some people had made similar offers to the emperor, but they were all dismissed by the emperor on the grounds that the fifth prince was weak. But this time, the emperor unexpectedly did not refute it immediately, and only mentioned the matter of establishing a heir apparent. , the matter was of great importance and he had to consider it carefully.

After that, I heard that the emperor summoned the fifth prince several times to talk and test his knowledge, and he praised the fifth prince very much.

Everyone was still trying to figure out the holy meaning in confusion. The Empress’ mother’s family, the Duke of Enguo, suddenly changed its low profile in the past and sent out a post about a chrysanthemum appreciation banquet to some royal family members and noble families in the capital.

Nangong Yue has always had a good relationship with Duke Enguo, and since she is the Crown Princess of Zhennan, this post was naturally sent to her.

Nangong Yue held the bright red and gold-gilded post, thinking about the recent developments in the DPRK, and her mind was racing.

In the last life, because the queen's legitimate son died young, the eldest prince was demoted, and the second prince became disabled, the Nangong family would fully support Han Lingfu. And now, the queen has a legitimate son. As far as the Nangong family is concerned, she will always stand on the side of the fifth prince. It was probably because of this that the uncle and father agreed with his brother to become the fifth prince's companion.

Once the fifth prince is established as the prince, it will be even more difficult for Han Lingfu to inherit the throne in the future.

Han Lingfu will naturally not give up. It seems that he will take action soon...

I am afraid there will be another storm in the court!
