What happened to Mrs. Yongyi Hou was just an inconspicuous wave in the vast river.

Yong Yihou entered the palace and discussed with the emperor for half a day, but no one knew what he said.

For Chen Quan, it was a big deal that two concubines in the palace were pregnant.

The children of the Shen family are not outstanding. If the Shen family wants to make a big splash in the court, it will take at least two generations of hard work. As for the King of Qin, although he is in good health, if he does not establish a heir, the King of Qin will only be the King of Qin. You have to rely on the rewards from him and Queen Shen to support the servants in the Qin Palace.

Especially Empress Shen, who tried her best to take care of the pregnant Song Cairen in the palace. In Chen Quan's view, Empress Shen treated Song Cairen as if she were her biological daughter, but Zhou Guifei was much different from Yue Meiren. To say that you try your best and avoid any stumbling blocks is already considered a good thing.

This comparison clearly shows the superiority and inferiority.

As time entered March, the weather was probably warmer, and King Qin's health was much better.

Although he did not take on errands, he would go out for a walk every now and then.

For example, go to Jixianglou to eat, go to Yiyuan to enjoy flowers, go to Shen's house to sit for a while, or simply take a carriage for a walk.

In the eyes of everyone, King Qin was not the frail and frail person in the legend who seemed to be dying at any time.

The King of Qin refused.

She considered herself to be the daughter of the Marquis, with a noble status. Not to mention marrying the sick son of King Qin, she was already wronged. Even if she married, she should be the main concubine, so why should she be the side concubine.

Song Yunjiao's unwillingness continued until April, when something big happened in the palace.

Several other families were beheaded and had their homes confiscated and exiled at the same time. Almost all of them were good brothers who followed the Song brothers from Qingfeng Village.

After several important officials from the court hurriedly entered the palace for discussion, Yue Meiren was moved out of Yuhua Palace to recuperate, and the fourth prince was immediately sent to the prince's residence for temporary residence.

Queen Shen was so happy that she hugged the emperor and cried loudly, saying that the emperor could move.

He is gentle and elegant, with outstanding appearance, like the green bamboo in the mountain stream. No matter what time he is, his back is always straight and graceful.

In July, the ancient tombs in Dongyang County reappeared, and a large number of gold, silver, jewelry, cultural relics and antiques were sent to the national treasury.

They knew that if something happened to the emperor, their concubines who had never given birth to children would most likely be buried with him.

Such an emperor, even if treated properly, is basically a useless person and can no longer shoulder the important responsibilities of the country.

Chen Quan didn't take it to heart at first. As more and more news piled up on his desk, even Chen Quan had to admit that if it weren't for his physical illness, his three sons would be more talented and academically capable than his two brothers who died young. .

In mid-March, the King of Qin made an engagement, and Gongsun Wanying, the daughter of the prime minister's office, was the concubine of Qin, and Song Yunjiao, the daughter of Marquis Yongyi, was the concubine.

After hearing this, Chen Quan's eyes widened and he whined excitedly. In the end, the veins on his forehead popped out and his fingers moved slightly.

Chen Quan fell into a coma and was unconscious and could not speak. All matters in the court were temporarily handled by the King of Qin, and the matter would be discussed later after the Emperor woke up.

There was an uproar in Beijing for a while.

The Great Shang Dynasty was full of solitude, and the atmosphere was tense to the extreme.

The whole family of the Ningyuan Marquis was executed, and all the men over eight years old in the Yongyi Marquis were executed, and the women were sent to the Jiaofang Division.

In order to take care of Chen Quan, Queen Shen specially built a small terrace next to the dragon cave. During the day, Queen Shen dealt with the affairs of the harem and took care of Song Cairen who was pregnant with Long Zi. At night, she slept on the small cave in front of the dragon cave. Personally take care of Chen Quan who is ill.

The emperor was furious.

In early June, Marquis Ningyuan was preparing to launch a mutiny at the border. General Wu, who was assisting Marquis Ningyuan in guarding the border, discovered this in advance. General Wu secretly contacted General Lin, and the two generals joined forces to suppress the rebellion. In the end, Marquis Ningyuan had no choice but to strangle himself in the mansion.

News of this great news reached the palace, and Empress Shen personally went to Chen Quan's ears to tell it in detail. It was said that the treasures unearthed this time would ensure that the Shang Dynasty would not have any financial worries for ten years.

I can only sigh in my heart, Queen Shen is deeply affectionate and loyal, which is really admirable.

The new nobles in the DPRK are all in danger.

At the end of June, more than a dozen ministers in the court once again jointly submitted a letter requesting King Qin to ascend the throne as emperor.

This was even more unacceptable to Song Yunjiao.

Unfortunately, her father, Yong Yihou, went to the palace to beg for her as a concubine.

Empress Shen did not reject the wishes of these concubines. She personally rolled up her sleeves, took care of everything personally, and led a group of concubines to serve the emperor extremely well.

Chen Quan arrived, and Concubine Zhou was still crying that she was right, it was Yue Meiren who provoked her before she took action. Looking at the baby boy who could already see the bird in the pool of blood, Chen Quan felt dizzy for a while, and Concubine Zhou happened to be at this moment He rushed over and Chen Quan fell to the ground with a collision.

He discussed music and poetry with scholars, discussed seasonal climate and crops with farmers, discussed transportation of goods from south to north, transportation of goods from south to north, transportation of cars and shipping...

If she wants to get rid of this marriage, unless King Qin dies before the wedding on the eighth day of August. Otherwise, even if she makes trouble again, she will marry into King Qin's palace and become a concubine.

Suddenly, the Yuhua Palace was in chaos. Empress Shen had no choice but to order the Yulin Guards to guard the palace, and no one was allowed to enter or exit.

At first, the mother and son chatted in a normal way, talking about the people and things that King Qin encountered outside. Later, it turned into King Qin talking, Chen Quan asking, and Queen Shen listening.

He doesn't look like a pampered prince in the palace, but because of his profound knowledge, people are convinced unconsciously.

Yue Meiren, who lived in Yuhua Palace, was slapped down by Concubine Zhou, and the little prince, who was already more than four months old and almost five months old, died.

Originally, Chen Quan was still a little wary, but King Qin seemed not to notice. Every ten days and a half, he would enter the palace. He would tell the queen what he had seen and heard outside without reservation.

In mid-May, several important ministers in the court saw that His Majesty could not recover, so they jointly submitted a letter requesting King Qin to ascend the throne as emperor, and the Emperor to abdicate and stay in the harem to recuperate.

After hearing the news, several childless concubines offered themselves up to take care of the emperor on behalf of Empress Shen.

He couldn't eat, drink or have sex on his own, so he had to rely on Empress Shen and several concubines in the palace to serve him attentively.

Her mother had just fallen ill and collapsed, her second brother was angry and left home without a trace, and her father did such an unreasonable thing, leaving her with no face.

The imperial doctor hurriedly stepped forward to check, but saw that the emperor had not changed.

When the Queen Mother received the news, she fainted and never woke up.

The King of Qin refused again.

In just one month, Queen Shen's hair had turned gray, and Chen Quan also woke up from a coma. However, he could not move his whole body, his mouth and tongue were stiff, and he could not speak.

If Gongsun Wanying was happily waiting to be married, Song Yunjiao was crying and fussing reluctantly.

No matter how reluctant Song Yunjiao is, the imperial edict has been issued and everything is a foregone conclusion.

Concubine Zhou Guifei was temporarily imprisoned in the Yuhua Palace because she plotted to kill the emperor's heir and angered Long Yan, causing his majesty to slip and fall.

The places King Qin went to and the people he met every day were reported to the emperor's desk in the palace.

Everyone in the court was moved by Empress Shen. It was said that Empress Shen was also a role model among women, which made people admire her.

On the eighth day of August, King Qin got married. Because the emperor was seriously ill, everything was kept simple.

On that day, two sedan chairs entered Prince Qin's Mansion from the main entrance and the side entrance.

Gongsun Wanying, the direct daughter of the prime minister's palace, was the concubine of Qin, and Wu Yueniang, the lady of General Wu, was the concubine.
