Chapter Thirty

The next day, in Fenghua Palace, Fang, the second-rank imperial decree of Feng's mansion, entered the palace early in the morning to hand in a letter of congratulations to Queen Feng.

Queen Feng's confidant female official looked carefully at Queen Feng's face and whispered: "Does the Empress want to see her wife?"

The confidant female official still remembered that after Fang left last time, Empress Feng was furious in the bedroom alone. She did not serve her in front of her that day. I wonder if Fang accidentally bumped into Empress Feng with words, so she asked this question. Empress Feng smiled bitterly, "Where is the courageous family?" She is actually just a message. Empress Feng still has to listen to the words of Mr. Feng and Feng Guozhong."

Queen Feng nodded tiredly: "Xuan."

Although Fang is Queen Feng's sister-in-law, she is five years younger than Queen Feng. Because she has been well maintained for years, she looks only thirty years old. Queen Feng looked at Fang's exquisite and decent makeup and felt both relieved and jealous. She nodded and smiled, "My sister-in-law looks very good."

"Thank you, the queen, Hongfu." Fang treated Empress Feng with a regular salute, and after giving her seat to tea, she sat down and said with concern, "I wonder if the second prince is still in the queen's palace? I have found a kind of ointment from my parents' home. It is best to treat stick injuries."

Queen Feng smiled and said, "It's hard for you to think about it. Unfortunately, he is not here today and his injuries have not healed. I don't allow him to walk around often, and I am still raising him in Zhaoyang Palace."

Fang nodded, and Queen Feng asked her family as usual, and finally took a sip of tea: "Is this time my father and brother saying what do you mean?"

Fang looked at the people in the hall, and Empress Feng waved her hand to let the palace servants go down. Fang said slowly: "Empress, the master asked me to ask the empress. I heard that since that day... the emperor has never been to the Empress Palace again. Is it because the emperor is busy with government affairs and can't take care of the harem, or... Don't be upset, the emperor went elsewhere, but he didn't come to the Empress Palace?"

Queen Feng paused, slowly put down the teacup, and laughed mockingly: "I have been to Concubine Xue's palace once in the middle and to Concubine Jiang's palace once in the middle."

Fang nodded and silently calculated the days and whispered: "Empress... The emperor has a deep affection with the Empress and his wife for many years, and he rarely doesn't come to the Empress Palace for so long."

"It's just because of the last incident, the emperor is still annoying me." A trace of unwillingness appeared in the queen's eyes. "It's fine, but the emperor has always given Concubine Xue's face these days. He clearly knows that this palace looks down on that bitch the most..."

Fang complained in his heart and quickly advised: "Empress, be careful..."

Concubine Xue, the mother of the third son of the emperor, Qi Qi. Concubine Xue's mother's family is also very powerful in the court, and she is young and has been very favored over the years.

Fang sighed in her heart. She actually knew all this, so her father-in-law was anxious. Everyone could see that the emperor had the intention of cultivating other princes. At this time, Concubine Xue suddenly felt so faced... The people in the Feng family couldn't sit still.

Fang has also figured out Empress Feng's temper over the years and tried his best to persuade him softly: "The Queen is calm, and Imperial Concubine Xue can't get over you no matter what. Do you still remember? Two years ago, the Empress suddenly became angry. The Emperor threw Empress into her bedroom in the middle of the night and looked at the Empress against the cold wind. The Emperor and Empress have been in love for many years. The Empress has been used to it. She may not think anything, but she doesn't know that this matter has spread to the outside of the palace, which has caused many envy of ladies and wives."

Sure enough, Empress Feng's face improved a lot after hearing this. Fang smiled and continued, "I dare to say this to the Empress. Even if Concubine Xue has a high position, she is just a concubine. She will never be able to surpass her. If she accidentally gets favored, the Empress doesn't have to go to her heart. The concubines... I don't know when they get favored, and when they lose favors. I really have the only one who can be in love with the Emperor."

Queen Feng felt much better. She looked at Fang's eyes slightly gentler and said with a smile: "Fortunately, my sister-in-law always comes to explain my words..."

"It's good that the Empress can figure it out, but now the Emperor and Empress are like this..." Fang paused and smiled bitterly, "Don't say it's us, even if others look at it, it's okay now that the emperor hasn't come to the Empress Palace for several days. If he still does this for a while, the royal family will come to persuade him. Empress, don't wait until that time. At that time, the whole country will discuss it. It was a small matter between the emperor and the Empress and his wife, but those who are interested will think of something great. Small matter has become a big thing. You can forget it with a smile, but in the end it may become a knot in your heart and the Emperor. Why bother?"

A trace of anger flashed in Queen Feng's eyes and said hard: "It's not my fault..."

Fang sighed in her heart. Old Mrs. Feng left early, and her sisters envied her for not having to serve her mother-in-law, but who would know her suffering? She would rather have three levels of in-laws on it to serve her, at least the matter of passing the message and persuading others would not fall on her.

The emperor clearly wanted to teach the queen a lesson, but he was a sister-in-law who refused to bow his head. His father-in-law and husband were sweating anxiously, but he was still stubborn and thought he was right.

Fang paused and chuckled softly, "Of course it's not the Empress's fault. Didn't I tell the Empress the Master's words last time? It's impossible to be so coincidental about everything. The Empress can't say it's the Emperor's fault, right? I also know that the Empress is wrong this time, but if I don't bow my head now, it will be even worse when it really gets a big deal."

Seeing that the queen was still angry, Fang knew that this advice would be useless. She took the handkerchief and pressed the corner of her mouth and said, "I heard from the master... what my father-in-law meant is that those few people are not at ease now. If the queen feels unable to do so, it would be better to promote a few girls with good looks and well-behaved appearances and bent people to gather the emperor's heart."

When the queen heard this, she almost smashed the teacup, frowned and said in a whisper: "You asked me to use someone else to invite you to favor?!"

"Empress atonement." Fang quickly stood up to apologize, "Empress, don't be too careful, this book is nothing new... Not to mention that the Empresses of each palace always choose a few girls with good looks and no family background in their own palace, even in small households outside... There is always a wife who puts a few girls in her house. Since the Empress can command the harem, she will naturally be tolerant."

Queen Feng took a deep breath and shook her head for a while: "I...I and the Emperor are not the only ones."

Fang whispered: "My father-in-law's meaning... is just to prevent problems before it happens. Empress, father-in-law and master are both men. They don't understand, but I understand the Empress's heart. When I come to take concubines for my husband, others will praise the wife of the house. But which woman doesn't understand in her heart. It's not a last resort, not for the sake of that reputation. Who would be willing to take care of her husband? I also advised the master, but the master said... I'm afraid that if the emperor suddenly spoiled one day, as long as he could enter the harem, who would have no family background? Instead of doing this, it's better for the emperor to choose one for the emperor himself, so that he can get the reputation of being virtuous and let the emperor like it, and it's easy to grasp the person under his nose, and... "

Fang glanced at the queen and said slowly, "The emperor is in his prime, and there will be more and more princes in the future, and the empress cannot defend itself."

Empress Feng closed her eyes, Yes, the emperor is in his prime, but she is no longer young.

Seeing that Empress Feng finally heard it, Fang said hurriedly: "But I can't be anxious about this matter. Just watch it slowly. The most urgent thing is to coax the emperor's heart first. Empress, everyone from top to bottom is watching you."

Queen Feng tried her best to suppress her unwillingness and gritted her teeth and nodded: "Tomorrow... I will cook in person and ask the emperor to come for dinner."

Fang breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, nodded and smiled, "That's it. The empress and the emperor are in harmony, and those who are not upright will be relieved."

A sharp look flashed in Queen Feng's eyes, and she lowered her voice and said ruthlessly: "It's all... it's all that Baibian... He first hurt Hua'er and suffered that humiliation, and lost the imperial heart. Then he made a fool of himself and bullied me to this point! I... As long as I have the chance, I will see how I repay the gift he gave today!"

Fang was shocked and hurriedly advised: "My lady should not speak nonsense! Dongling Bairen is no better than others. If such a thing happened, even the emperor would comfort him more. His father-in-law also found a lot of precious tonics in Curry and sent them to apologize to him. It can be seen how important he is in the imperial city. Empress must not do stupid things."

Fang was worried. She actually knew that the Maoer Hutong was obviously done by Qi Xiao, but before coming, Feng Guozhong told her again and again, don’t talk to Queen Feng. Queen Feng has become increasingly angry in recent years and has no brains. Knowing that the incident is going to be out of control again, the Feng Mansion is in trouble at this critical moment.

Fang thought about it in his heart that Qi Xiao was more difficult to mess with than Bai Ren, so he didn't dare to talk too much, but he persuaded Empress Feng to leave the palace after a while.
