Chapter 151 Consort Fucha
Upon hearing this, Nian Shilan rolled her eyes at Fucha Peiyun and said:
"Back then, I didn't even take that old woman, the Empress, seriously."
Why would we be afraid of a mere Zhen Huan?
"I'm afraid of her? That's a huge joke!"
Fucha Peiyun laughed and said, "That's settled then. We'll deal with whatever comes our way."
Let's see what Zhen Huan will do!
On the other side, Zhen Huan was sitting by the bed in Suiyu Pavilion, carefully feeding her son Hongzhan medicine.
These past few years, whenever the weather changes, the twins get sick.
Hongzhan fell ill again a couple of days ago when the weather turned cool.
Zhen Huan was also exhausted by this.
Hearing the news that Xiaoyunzi had inquired about
She paused slightly in her hand, holding the medicine spoon.
She took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and continued to gently feed her son spoonful of medicine.
After feeding her son the entire bowl of medicine, Zhen Huan gently patted his back.
Then he gestured to Liuzhu and the wet nurse to take Lingxi and Hongzhan away.
After the children left, Zhen Huan frowned slightly.
Turning to look at Xiao Yunzi, who was standing respectfully to the side, he asked:
"Why is the matter of establishing an empress suddenly being brought up again in the court?"
Xiao Yunzi quickly bowed and answered cautiously:
"Your Majesty, I have only just heard about this matter myself."
It is said that the ministers felt that the position of empress had been vacant for a long time and the harem could not remain without a master.
Therefore, they brought up the old issue again and began discussing the matter of choosing an empress.
After hearing Xiao Yunzi's report, Zhen Huan couldn't help but sneer, her tone tinged with disdain and anger:
"Ha! These courtiers really have nothing better to do than eat and drink."
The inner palace had been peaceful for years, but they insisted on stirring up trouble and creating some waves.
Zhen Huan clearly understood in her heart that in the eyes of these people,
There's no way Zhen Huan could ever be the Empress.
Compared to Consort Hua or Consort Shu ascending to the throne of Empress,
Zhen Huan would prefer that the current situation continue.
At least she still held some power within the palace.
If the status quo is changed rashly, it will be extremely disadvantageous for her.
Zhen Huan hoped that the position of Empress would remain vacant forever.
In this way, she would have enough time to plan and strategize.
When the time is right, we will bring down Consort Shu and Consort Hua!
Zhen Huan turned to Jinxi beside her and asked:
"Jinxi, what do you think these ministers are plotting?"
Jinxi lowered her voice and said:
"Your Majesty, in my humble opinion, most of these ministers are trying to curry favor with Consort Shu."
Ever since the sixth prince of Consort Shu was sent to study in the Imperial Study...
This sixth prince has now come into the sights of the court officials.
Compared to the mediocre Third Prince and Fifth Prince
And for the fourth prince, who came from a humble background,
The sixth prince of Consort Shu was not only of noble birth, but also exceptionally intelligent.
The Sixth Prince is currently enjoying unparalleled popularity.
Those ministers naturally wanted to take advantage of the situation before he truly rose to power.
"Establish a relationship with him as soon as possible"
Zhen Huan nodded slightly, "That's what I thought too, but unfortunately Hongzhan's health is not good."
Otherwise, with his intelligence, he could have been a contender against Consort Shu's sixth son.
Now that the court officials have brought up the matter of establishing an empress again, I fear that the Emperor will choose Consort Shu as empress.
"If the Sixth Prince becomes the legitimate heir then, I will have even less hope."
Jinxi quickly comforted her, "Your Majesty, please don't worry too much. Perhaps things will take a turn for the better."
Zhen Huan gently shook her head and sighed, saying:
"Now the court officials are bringing up the matter of choosing an empress again, which is an old issue."
I am truly worried.
In my opinion, His Majesty will probably make Consort Shu his Empress.
If this comes to fruition, the Sixth Prince will naturally become the legitimate heir.
At that point, I will truly have no hope left.
Jinxi looked puzzled and asked softly:
"Isn't the Emperor supposed to have the Imperial Noble Consort as Empress?"
Zhen Huan sighed again and slowly said:
"Although His Majesty has not said it outright, I know his thoughts very well."
Deep down, he was still more inclined to make Consort Shu his empress.
Although the Nian family has toned down its behavior in recent years,
However, the Emperor did not completely eliminate his fear of the Nian family.
