Chen Tingwen was a little uneasy after the Ministry of Revenue.

Putting down the official documents in his hand, Chen Tingwen looked out the window. At this time, the talent show should have ended, right?

As soon as the thought came to an end, the little eunuch who was responsible for passing the message inside bent over and headed straight for Chen Tingwen, and then whispered: "Sir, the Marquis of Pingxi is here, please go out and talk."

Chen Tingwen was surprised, Marquis of Pingxi?

Several nearby officials from the Ministry of Revenue who heard the voice looked up and said, it would be fine if others were there, but Pingxi Hou was not an ordinary person.

The little eunuch nodded.

Chen Tingwen came to his senses, packed up the things on the table, and then went out with the eunuch.

There was an old locust tree in the yard of the Ministry of Households. Chen Tingwen stepped out of the door and saw Li Zhi standing under the tree in a purple robe. The sun shone through the branches and leaves, and the mottled light and shadow fell on Li Zhi's handsome face, which just blocked the phoenix eyes, making it impossible to tell his expression. Chen Tingwen wondered what Li Zhi was looking for him, and strided down the steps and walked towards Li Zhi.

"Hao Hou has been waiting for a long time." Chen Tingwen bowed to Li Zhi.

Li Zhi smiled and returned the tribute, gentle and elegant: "You are polite, sir."

Chen Tingwen looked at his expression, feeling anxious, and said seriously: "I don't know why the marquis came from?"

Li Zhi looked at the direction of the East Palace, then walked to Chen Tingwen and lowered his voice: "Time is tight, so I forgive Li for saying that this time, I heard that the Seventh Girls are also among the show girls. I wonder if the adults have any expectations for the Seventh Girls?"

When talking about his daughter, Chen Tingwen expected something to change. Looking at Li Zhi, he said tactfully: "The little girl is so arrogant that we couple. If possible, we still want to keep her for two more years to change her temper."

Li Zhi showed joy and said, "If you have any words from the adult, then Li dares to tell the purpose of coming. To be honest, since he met Koizumi Temple, Li has been obsessed with Miss Seven and has the desire to marry him. I am a lot older than Seven, and I feel wronged Seven, so I have not been here for a long time."

Chen Tingwen:...

This new favorite powerful minister in the imperial court actually fell in love with his daughter?

Li Zhi and Chen Tingwen were shocked and continued: "Today, the last selection of the beautiful daughter, the emperor ordered the daughter of the Duke of Protecting the Country as the Crown Princess. Then the Empress praised the Seventh Girl as the smart and smart, and as the prince's concubine."

Chen Tingwen frowned immediately when he heard this. Whether it is the crown prince's concubine or the crown prince's concubine, they are all the women of the crown prince, but the crown prince is romantic and he doesn't want his daughter to enter the Eastern Palace. He will compete for favor with others all his life and make plans all day long. Besides, what does his queen mean? Last time his daughter gave gifts, the queen lost her daughter's face, and she clearly didn't like it. Why did she put her niece on her right now, but instead ordered her kindness?

"What does the emperor say?" Chen Tingwen asked anxiously.

Li Zhi looked at him deeply and reminded: "Sir, today's talent show is just a formality. The Queen must have asked the emperor for instructions. However, when the concubine and the queen discussed with the queen the day before yesterday, the Queen said that she had not decided on the crown princess and one concubine. I think the candidate who was determined by the queen last night was Zhou Ya and the Seventh Girl."

Chen Tingwen felt cold in his heart: "Did the emperor agree?"

Li Zhi smiled bitterly: "The emperor must have agreed last night, otherwise the queen would not mention the seventh girl again today. However, the concubine knew that I had the heart for the seventh girl and found that the emperor wanted to agree. The concubine fainted in a hurry, which led to the temporary postponement of the talent show."

Chen Tingwen's heart was ups and downs with Li Zhi's words, and his forehead was sweating.

After calming down, Chen Tingwen suddenly saw a turning point. Concubine Chun was able to favor the harem, and it was definitely not someone who fainted for a small matter. Since he knew that his brother liked Qingqing, Concubine Chun must have fainted on purpose. Now that Li Zhi came to him, it means that Concubine Chun was sure to let the emperor change his decision.

Just as he thought so, the Marquis of Pingxi in front of him suddenly bent down to salute him, and said sincerely: "Sir, it's not that Li was responsible for the insult, but the emperor and the empress had a decision first. If the imperial concubine wanted to dissuade him, there must be a suitable reason. Time is tight. If the imperial concubine respected me as a marriage, I would like to let someone know the Empress. If the lord didn't want to make trouble, then I didn't come to the Ministry of Revenue today, and the imperial concubine would never talk much before the emperor."

Chen Tingwen subconsciously helped Li Zhi up first: "The marquis has good intentions, but he dare not take responsibility for the official position. Please get up quickly."

Li Zhi stood up straight again and looked at Chen Tingwen with inquisitive eyes.

Chen Tingwen was in a dilemma. If he refused to agree to Li Zhi's proposal, the concubine had no reason to dissuade the emperor, so his daughter would enter the Eastern Palace. But if he agreed to Li Zhi, would his daughter be happy? Will his father agree? After all, the Shen family is the queen's family, and Li Zhi is the concubine's biological brother. Anyone would think that these two families are incompatible.

Li Zhi waited for a while, and seeing that Chen Tingwen had not responded for a long time, he sighed in a low voice: "I admire Miss Seven. Miss Seven may not be able to favor me. It is not a gentleman to force it now, but the situation is forced by the situation. If the adults do not have a safer way, then the imperial concubine has only one reason to advise the emperor."

Chen Tingwen understood that no matter how favored Concubine Chun was, she could not interfere with the crown prince's talent show at will.

After thinking about it, Chen Tingwen said ashamedly: "The Marquis is very grateful to the officials who are beautiful, but this matter is very important. Can the Marquis allow the officials to discuss with their family?"

Li Zhi thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "The emperor has already announced that the imperial doctor has treated the imperial concubine. The imperial concubine should not be in a coma for too long. Once she wakes up, she must give the emperor a reasonable explanation. It is probably not enough for the lord to leave the palace. It may be too late to discuss with the old man Chen."

Chen Tingwen had already guessed that Concubine Chun was pretending to be dizzy. With the imperial physician present, who could act for a long time?

"No matter what happens, I will go to my father now. No matter what the result is, the officials will owe the marquis a favor." Chen Tingwen said, and replied to Li Zhi with a great gift.

Li Zhi made way out and said to himself: "Li is also for himself, and I just hope that lord will not blame me for taking advantage of others' danger."

Chen Tingwen shook his head repeatedly and thanked him again, Chen Tingwen hurried to the cabinet.

After hearing what happened to Chen Qu's son, his face immediately pulled down.

The queen's daughter has not liked Song since she was a child. Qingqing looks so much like Song. Her daughter chose Qingqing as the prince's concubine because she liked her. She was almost the same as taking the opportunity to take revenge. Besides, the prince's romantic virtues, even his grandson Chen Qu would not look down on her.

If you don’t choose the prince, you have to choose Li Zhi.

Li Zhi, Chen Qu couldn't see through this person. Who can be hypocritical and perfect? ​​It is unlikely that Li Zhi is a true wise minister and a businessman.

"Father, why don't you go and persuade the queen?" Chen Tingwen suggested that if the queen changed her words, no one would have to marry her daughter.

Chen Qu snorted coldly and scolded: "If she was afraid of me, she wouldn't do this, let alone she would definitely say hello to the emperor if she chose Qingqing. Even if I persuade her, she would not dare to go back on her word in front of the emperor."

Chen Tingwen was almost worried: "What should we do? Time is tight, so we can't ask Qingqing what she meant..."

"What did the matchmaker do when her parents ordered her to do? " Chen Qu glared at her son. He said, "The father thought it was like this, no wonder his granddaughter dared to contradict him.

He was scolded without warning, Chen Tingwen pursed his lips and felt wronged at the ground. He had a good relationship with his daughter, and of course he had to consider his daughter's wishes in his marriage. The old man was used to being a strict father, but a strict father was not useful. The queen did not care about the old man's attitude at all.

"Just put the marquis of Pingxi." Chen Qu said solemnly.

If your daughter is the concubine of the prince, you can see her head directly in this life. It will never be easy. If you marry Li Zhi, who is life-saving, you will at least have a happy marriage.

He insisted on choosing one of two, and Chen Tingwen also liked Li Zhi even more. Now that the old man has spoken, Chen Tingwen immediately went back to Li Zhi.

In the back hall of the central palace, Concubine Chun lies on the bed with her eyes closed, her eyebrows are lightly locked, and I feel pity for her.

Emperor Qingde sat beside the bed, looking impatiently at the imperial physician taking his beloved woman's pulse.

Empress Chen stood behind Emperor Qingde, looking concerned.

The imperial physician took the pulse for two quarters of an hour before carefully putting down Concubine Chun's hand, bent down to Emperor Qingde and said, "Go back to the emperor, I have something to ask the palace maids around the empress."

Emperor Qingde immediately looked at Bai Lu.

Bai Lu said nervously: "Sir, please ask me, I will definitely speak out."

The imperial physician nodded and asked her: "Do you dare to ask if the empress is in menstruation?"

Bai Lu shook her head without thinking.

The imperial physician continued to ask: "When was the last menstruation that Empress had?"

Bai Lu added a little memories and immediately reported her life.

The imperial physician smiled and turned to look at Emperor Qingde: "Back to the emperor, according to the current pulse of the empress, there are seven or eighteen years of joy, but I think the days are shallow and the pulse is not particularly obvious, so I will have to wait for a while to confirm."

Emperor Qingde was surprised and happy, and excitedly held Concubine Chun's hand: "You are serious about this?"

The imperial physician smiled and said, "If the emperor doesn't believe it, please invite a few more imperial physicians to come and have a look."

Emperor Qingde believed that of course he wanted to believe it. He had been hoping that Concubine Chun could give birth to a son for him, but now he finally hoped that!

Empress Chen looked at Emperor Qingde's happy look, and her heart was sore and astringent, and her emotions stabilized. Empress Chen asked the imperial physician with concern: "Why did the imperial concubine fall into a coma?"

The imperial physician said: "The imperial concubine may have some deficiency of qi and blood in her first pregnancy, but it is not serious. She can take good care of herself in the future."

Emperor Qingde breathed a sigh of relief and was about to ask the imperial physician when the imperial concubine would wake up, the little hand he held in his hand suddenly moved.

Emperor Qingde immediately bowed his head.

Concubine Chun slowly woke up, and her beautiful eyes looked at him confused: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with me?"

Emperor Qingde said happily: "You just fainted. The imperial physician took your pulse and said it was a happy pulse!"

Concubine Chun was stunned and looked at Emperor Qingde for a moment. She slowly placed her hand on her lower abdomen, feeling amused and crying. In order for her brother to marry the girl he liked, she had no choice but to pretend to be dizzy. Unexpectedly, she accidentally hit her and made a child faint.

"Congratulations to my sister. I have to take care of my baby well next time. Don't worry about it anymore." Queen Chen congratulated me.

Concubine Chun nodded and said softly: "Thank you for your concern, sister."

Emperor Qingde advised Concubine Chun a lot again, and Empress Chen stood silently by the side. After Emperor Qingde finally finished giving instructions, Empress Chen asked softly: "Emperor, the girls are still waiting outside. Why not ask my sister to rest here, let's continue?"

The talent show is a big event and should not be delayed. Emperor Qingde subconsciously nodded.

The imperial concubine was still holding her hand, but the imperial concubine Chun smiled, but secretly hooked Emperor Qingde's big hand with her little finger.

This spoiled little action of course attracted Emperor Qingde's idea. He looked at Concubine Chun. Emperor Qingde coughed and changed his mouth: "I am a little tired, so I will choose again tomorrow."

After saying that, Emperor Qingde ordered people to prepare a sedan chair, and he wanted to accompany Concubine Chun back to Yichun Palace.

Queen Chen clenched her hands secretly.

Watching the imperial concubine leave with affection, Empress Chen is both hated and worried. Concubine Chun is not dizzy early or late, and she insists on dizzying after the Crown Princess is selected. Could it be that Concubine Chun does not want the crown prince to marry the daughter of the Duke of the Kingdom, and is preparing to blow the emperor's ear? In addition to this, Empress Chen is even more worried about Concubine Chun's belly. If Concubine Chun is her son, the status of the crown prince...
