Chapter 162: Being a Perfect Man in My Fair Princess (7)
The emperor wanted to give the other party a status. He thought that this son and his daughter Ziwei were twins, a boy and a girl, which was a good omen. It seemed that he was worthy of being the emperor.
As soon as he saw the emperor's expression, he knew what he was thinking. Without saying much, he just looked at him with respect. The emperor felt that he suddenly had a kind fatherly heart.
However, recognizing a prince is much more difficult than recognizing a princess. It is also necessary to confirm the bloodline and bring Xia Yuhe into the palace. It is really troublesome. More importantly, if this happens, all the efforts the emperor has made to cover up will be in vain.
The emperor was unwilling to do this from the bottom of his heart, but fortunately Shi Yi had been prepared. One of his subordinates was a long-time friend of Ji Xiaolan, and through Ji Xiaolan, he provided the emperor with a good idea.
"If the emperor just changes Xia's identity, wouldn't this problem be solved?" Ji Xiaolan had a lot of bad ideas.
With the help of Ji Xiaolan, the emperor first thought of his beloved wife's family. An identity of the Fucha family was enough for Xia Yuhe to successfully enter the harem, and the Fucha family would definitely not reject a prince.
At that time, whether it is marrying Ziwei into the Fucha family or letting Xia Hu marry the daughter of the Fucha family, it can add glory to the Fucha family and can be regarded as a gift to the beloved wife and her family.
The emperor had a good idea, but the Fucha family would not cooperate. Fortunately, Shiyi had established a good relationship with the Fucha family in advance, otherwise, this plan would be really difficult to carry out.
After everything was agreed upon, the emperor informed the Fucha family and then sent someone to bring Xia Yuhe to the capital, announcing to the public that Xia Yuhe had gone with her two children to pray for the country.
Now that her mission has been accomplished, she has been canonized as a noble concubine, but without a title. The emperor plans to bestow a title on Xia Yuhe when his two children get married, which can be considered a perfect ending.
The Queen was the last one to know the news. By the time she found out, Xia Yuhe's carriage had already arrived at the palace gate. The Queen couldn't understand it at all: "What daughter of Fucha? What imperial concubine who went out of the palace to practice? The Emperor has been so unpredictable lately. It really worries me."
"Your Majesty, please be careful with your words." Rong Ma looked at the Queen cautiously, advising her to be careful with her words, but the Queen didn't care.
"Since the emperor has done it, there will definitely be people who will advise him. As the queen, it is naturally my duty to advise the emperor." From the very beginning, the queen positioned herself as the emperor's subject, not the emperor's wife.
"Your Majesty, Imperial Concubine Fucha has just entered the palace. If you blame the Emperor for this matter, I'm afraid it will only cause the Emperor to dislike you for no reason," Aunt Rong continued to persuade.
"It doesn't matter. If the queen cannot persuade the emperor, then what's the point of me being the queen?" The queen has always been stubborn, and Rong Mama can't stop her at all.
But before the queen could see the emperor, Xia Yuhe came to the queen's palace with her two children: "Your servant greets the queen."
"Your sons and others pay their respects to the Empress Dowager." Ziwei and Shiyi followed Xia Yuhe to pay their respects to the Queen.
Looking at the three relatively polite people, the queen felt relieved. Looking at the gentle Xia Yuhe, the queen felt even more relieved. As long as she was not some seductive girl, she could accept her.
After talking with the Queen for a while, the three of them left. The Queen's expression was obviously much better than at the beginning: "She is quite sensible. Since she gave birth to the royal heir, she is a meritorious official. I can't treat her badly. Rong Mama, go pick out some gifts and you personally supervise the delivery."
After saying that, the Queen began to fiddle with her Buddhist beads, looking as if she didn't care about worldly affairs, which really made Rong Mama a little worried, but she had to follow the Queen's orders.
After Rong Mama left, the Queen sent away all the palace maids and eunuchs, and cried while touching her Buddhist beads: "Fu Cha, it's Fu Cha again. Does the Emperor really love you so much? Am I really inferior to you?"
An indescribable feeling of grievance surged in the queen's heart. She closed her eyes and held back her tears. The Buddhist beads in her hand kept turning, gradually bringing her a sense of peace.
Madam Rong came to Xia Yuhe's Chuxiu Palace with rewards. Looking at Xia Yuhe and the children around her, she couldn't help but sigh that this Concubine Fucha really looked like Empress Xiaoxian.
It's not about her looks, but her temperament that makes people feel happy when they get close to her. It was the same with Empress Xiaoxian. Even though the emperor said many times that the empress was not as good as Xiaoxian, the empress never resented Xiaoxian. She was truly like a bodhisattva enshrined in a Buddhist temple.
"Madame Rong is here, please come in." He Hua, the head maid of Chuxiu Palace, hurriedly stepped forward to greet her.
"I am here on the orders of the Empress to deliver a reward to the Imperial Concubine." Rong Mama was quite polite in her words. After all, Xia Yuhe had a very good attitude towards the Empress, so Rong Mama naturally would not make things difficult for her.
"Madam, please come in and have some tea and take a rest." He Hua took Madam Rong in eagerly and gave her enough respect. Madam Rong's face was almost wrinkled from smiling.
"Your Majesty, do you have something else to tell me? Otherwise, why would you bother to come here in person?" Lotus continued to flatter and ask questions quietly.
"The Queen is concerned about the Imperial Concubine, and she hopes that the Queen will not let the Queen down." Aunt Rong is used to thinking more about the Queen.
After meeting Xia Yuhe, Rong Mama delivered the gifts and said some good things about the queen before leaving. Xia Yuhe frowned as she looked at the gifts and said, "Please keep them all in the warehouse. I'm afraid they will all be given away as rewards in two days."
After all, as the emperor's concubine, it was necessary to reward the people below her. As a result, Xia Yuhe immediately began to feel sorry for her money. Fortunately, the empress sent enough things and the emperor also sent a lot, which could make up for Xia Yuhe's loss.
With this idea in mind, Xia Yuhe sorted out all the things she didn't like, planning to give them away in the future. She also selected a lot of head ornaments and jewelry for Ziwei and Xiaoyanzi.
Three days later, Xia Yuhe's canonization ceremony was officially held. Shiyi was also written on the jade disc as a prince. The rankings of the other princes also changed slightly. Ziwei was also canonized as Princess Heshuo He'an.
After the enthronement ceremony, Xia Yuhe became a real imperial concubine, and the Jingshifang also hung up a green card for Xia Yuhe. In order to give face to Xia Yuhe, the emperor also came to Xia Yuhe's Chuxiu Palace.
The moment he saw Xia Yuhe, the emperor's mind flashed with his beloved wife, Empress Xiaoxian, and he instantly had no other thoughts. Recalling his past with Empress Xiaoxian, the emperor couldn't help but feel his eyes were a little fuzzy.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" Xia Yuhe certainly had no interest in the emperor, but she couldn't just let the emperor cry in front of her, so she quickly showed concern for him.
