The child carved with powder and jade waved his hands in the cradle, and his face was filled with a sweet smile. He didn't know that his mother had died. Xue ronghua poked his bulging face with his hand. Looking at Yanqi's carefree baby state. Suddenly the nose was sour and almost burst into tears.

"Sister." Meng jou Chia pulled at her skirt, "do you know that Yanqi's brother has gone?"

Xue ronghua touched her head. With a smile, "how old is the little prince? He can't understand others."

Meng jou Chia blinked. "Will he be sad if he knows later?"

"It will be sad," Xue ronghua covered the quilt in the cradle. "The mother Princess is the person who loves you most in the world, so you must listen to the German princess in the future. Don't wait until the German princess has white hair. It's too late to listen."

Meng jou Chia nodded vaguely. "Will Yanqi's brother stay in Zhongcui palace in the future?"

"I don't know. It depends on the emperor. Does the princess want the little prince to stay in the palace?"

Children's ideas are always innocent. "Of course I do. I'll take care of my brother every day."

Xue ronghua chuckled. The little girl needs someone else to take care of her. "You're still young. You can't take care of the little prince until you grow up. Then you should eat well in the future. You can take care of it when you have strength."

"Aunt," a maid knocked at the door. "Ask your aunt to come over there."

"I see," Xue ronghua squatted down and touched her face. "You're here to play games with the little prince. My sister went out first."

Luo Ninghai is playing with a jade Ruyi in his hand. When he sees Xue ronghua coming, he doesn't let her salute and directly asks her to sit down beside him.

Xue ronghua asked strangely, "in such a cold winter, how can my mother play with such a cold thing as Ruyi."

"You know it's cold, but the palace is very happy to play in winter," Luo Ninghai smiled. "What do you think of this? It's a top grade in the palace, but it's still not as good as the one around your waist."

Xue ronghua subconsciously touched the liluan pendant around his waist, "this is the engagement gift given by the emperor to the maidservant and Duanwang in the state of Qin. It can't be compared with the top grade in the empress's palace."

Luo Ninghai youyou said, "Duan Wang really values you. It's cold in winter in the state of Qi. He can actually come to see you from the state of Qin. It seems that your little husband and wife really have a good relationship."

"The purpose of Duan Wang's trip is to give gifts to the emperor, followed by looking at slaves."

"It makes some sense. The emperor usually comes to Zhongcui palace to see jou Chia, followed by the palace," Luo Ninghai said coldly. "Now the ownership of Meng Yanqi has not been determined. Who do you think would be better to raise?"

Xue ronghua lowered his eyes. "I think it's most appropriate for concubine Qi to raise me."

"Why?" Luo Ninghai said strangely, "concubine Qi is just an empty shell concubine, not a concubine. How can she raise her?"

"It is precisely because she is an empty shell and is far away from the struggle of the harem that she is suitable for raising," Xue ronghua said firmly. "First of all, the empress is not suitable. She has a pair of children under her knees. She is the only one in the harem who has children except Princess Chen. If she is raised by the empress, I'm afraid she will be discussed, and the imperial concubine is not suitable. I'm afraid the emperor won't rest assured of her temperament."

"This palace knows all this," Luo Ninghai raised her eyes. "Why not give it to beauty Shen or min Jieyu?"

"Beauty Shen was born as a dancer, and concubine Chen is the eldest princess from the state of Qin. If the state of Qin knew that their princess's children were raised by concubines born as dancers, I'm afraid it would be difficult to live in the face of the two countries," Xue ronghua thought. "Min Jieyu seems to be a good choice, but the emperor seems to... Rarely go to her."

Luo Ninghai sighed heavily, "it's not very few, but she won't go at all. You know, min Jieyu's father is Lord Jiang. That's an old fox that gives the emperor a headache. The emperor is afraid that Lord Jiang will spoil her daughter by making an article about the prince born by his daughter."

"In this way, there will be only concubine Qi," Xue ronghua lowered his voice. "Only when other concubines can't get it, can the status of the empress's children be more stable, not to mention the hands of the concubines furthest from the struggle in the harem."

Luo Ninghai narrowed his eyes slightly and said with appreciation, "your analysis is very reasonable. This palace feels like someone taught when I was a child."

Xue ronghua's throat tightened. When she was a child, she was taught most by her sister mu in her previous life.

"You are really smart," Luo Ninghai nodded leisurely. "It seems that the palace still sees the right person."

Xue ronghua curved his lips. "I have another idea."

"Tell me."

"Madam," Xue ronghua knelt solemnly on the ground, "please bring your maidservant into Zhongcui palace and let her become a female official around you."

Luo Ninghai was stunned. "The palace thought that after concubine Chen left, you would go back to the state of Qin with Duan Wang."

"Empress, imperial concubine Chen died strangely. I really can't bear to see such an unfair ending," Xue ronghua bit his lower lip and said word by word, "I want to avenge imperial concubine Chen."

"Do you know who it is?"

Xue ronghua once again read out the name that made him remember all his life, "Su Rushuang."

Luo Ninghai looked at her in silence for a long time and helped her up from the ground. "Our palace is willing to accept you as a female official, but what you do should satisfy our palace."

"Empress, I already know the cause of Mu Langhua's death," Xue ronghua seemed to see that she was pierced by thousands of arrows. She clenched her hands and said, "she was framed by Su Rushuang."

Luo Ninghai was stunned and almost clapped his hands. "It was really made by Su Rushuang, but why didn't the emperor know?"

"The maidservant thought... It was the emperor who let Su Rushuang frame empress mu," Xue ronghua raised a sad smile, "how can you say that the Emperor didn't know."

"How could this be possible? Why did the emperor frame empress mu?" Luo Ninghai's eyes swept down, and he already understood more than half of it. "No wonder the emperor left her memorial tablet in Donghua palace. I see."

"The king's pillow collapsed, how can others sleep," Xue ronghua said lightly. "Since ancient times, how many soldiers have died on the battlefield, and how many heroes have died in the hands of the kings they serve."

Luo Ninghai almost struggled to stand up. "Come on, prepare pen and ink. I'll write a letter to Luo's house."

Meng Qian weighed the memorial in his hand, smiled and said, "how is concubine Qi in Penglai Hall these days?"

Zhuang Youyi nodded in an unknown place, "thank you for your concern. Everything is fine, my concubine."

"Just fine. General Zhuang asked me a few days ago. He was afraid that his baby daughter would be wronged in the harem. If you are uncomfortable, just tell me."

Zhuang Youyi bowed her head and said, "I don't dare. I'm very grateful for the emperor's care. I don't dare to ask for any more."

Meng Qianzhong looked at her contentedly. "You know everything about concubine Chen. I heard you went to Zhaoyun hall to cry several times."

"Yes, imperial concubine Chen is the elder of the concubine, so it should be," Zhuang Youyi said with a smile. "I hope imperial concubine Chen won't feel sick in the sky."

Meng Qian looked at her repeatedly and immediately said with a smile, "you are so cute. How can Prince Chun be so arrogant."

"In fact, Prince Chun is not to blame for the marriage," Zhuang Youyi smiled. "It's just that my concubine doesn't like him. It's better to stay in the palace all her life than marry someone she doesn't like."

Meng Qianzhong was stunned, "but general Zhuang said you had long been to Prince Chun..."

Zhuang Youyi curved her lips. "That was many years ago. Now Prince Chun and I have grown up. How can we still like him... Besides, he is a traitor. Even if the emperor releases him from the palace, this crime can not be forgiven."

"So it is," Meng Qianchong said with a smile. "Concubine Qi knows the whole thing very well. It seems that I'm really confused about the spectrum of mandarin ducks."

Zhuang Youyi nodded slightly to reassure the emperor.

Meng Qianchong came out from behind the desk, came to her and said, "you know that concubine Chen has a prince Meng Yanqi. Now she's in Zhongcui palace."

"I know."

"Have you ever seen the child," Meng Qianzhong said with a slight smile, putting his hand behind his back. "How do you think he was born?"

Zhuang Youyi didn't quite understand what medicine he sold in the gourd. He replied in a daze: "the little prince was born very well, but concubine Chen went early. It's very pathetic for him to have no mother."

Meng Qianchong smiled, "what do you think if I give Meng Yanqi to you?"

Zhuang Youyi opened her eyes wide in disbelief. Nono replied, "Emperor... My concubines may not have this ability. They can raise the prince of the royal family. The emperor should give it to other concubines."

Meng Qianzhong said with a smile, "although you are not my real concubine, you are the daughter of general Zhuang. I just let you take it for a while. If you have the idea of leaving the palace in the future, just give Yanqi back to me."

Zhuang Youyi lowered her eyelids and asked, "why doesn't the emperor raise min Jieyu? Her mother's family is noble and suitable for the little prince."

Meng Qianchong's eyes flashed a little strange and hesitated: "I... I don't think minjieyu likes it very much. I'd better ask concubine Qi for help."

"Min Jieyu doesn't think it's inappropriate. She likes children very much," Zhuang Youyi said with a smile. "My concubine is careless. The little prince is still so small. My concubine really can't afford this responsibility."

Meng Qianzhong smiled gently, "don't you want to help me?"

"Emperor," Zhuang Youyi thought of Jiang Jinwen's sigh and said with a stiff head, "Min Jieyu is really gentle and generous, with beautiful faces. Why doesn't the emperor go to Zhongcui palace to see Jieyu?"

Meng Qianchong touched his chin and said with a smile: "are you complaining that I don't enter the harem, or did min Jieyu want you to say so?"

"Minjieyu didn't tell her concubine, but the whole people in the harem knew that the Emperor didn't like minjieyu..." Zhuang Youyi's voice became lower and lower. She knew she had said something wrong and quickly bit out her lower lip.

"Do you say I don't like min Jieyu," Meng Qianzhong said with a cold smile, "I really don't like her, or I don't like Lord Jiang's daughter, that's it."

Zhuang Youyi looked up. The original crux was here, "emperor, but you have married minjieyu into the palace. You can't hang her there. She's innocent."
