After killing four concubines, the queen was sentenced to death and reborn

That day, Xiao Xuanchen came to Weiyang Palace after the morning court session. After Xiao Xuanchen sat down, Zheng Xiyan served him tea and asked in a gentle voice, "Your Majesty, is there something on your mind?"

"The princess from southern Xinjiang is seeking marriage, and I'm hesitating about who to let go. Among the princesses of marriageable age, only Rong Le is of marriageable age, and Ronghua is still too young." Xiao Xuanchen's eyes were deep and he was a little hesitant.

Princess Rongle and Princess Ronghua are both Xiao Xuanchen's concubine sisters. As princesses, they have to marry far away and marry into a royal family. This is their duty that they cannot escape, but...

Zheng Xiyan recalled her previous life, when Nanjiang also asked to marry a princess at this time.

Finally, Xiao Xuanchen issued an order to marry Princess Rongle to the southern border. Princess Rongle was the sister of King Xiang. King Xiang was strongly opposed at that time. Xiao Xuanchen asked him to choose between military power and Princess Rongle. King Xiang finally chose military power.

"Your Majesty, are you worried about Prince Xiang?" Zheng Xiyan asked carefully.

Xiao Xuanchen looked embarrassed, "If I let Rong Le marry, Prince Xiang will definitely not agree."

“It’s really difficult.”

Xiao Xuanchen must want Princess Rong Le to marry, and she is the best candidate.

"Queen, do you have any good ideas?" Xiao Xuanchen looked up at her with a hint of expectation in his eyes.

Zheng Xiyan's expression changed slightly, but she immediately replied: "Your Majesty! The harem cannot interfere in government affairs. This is a major matter of the court, and I, a concubine, cannot say anything too much."

"You are the queen, and the princesses' marriages should be arranged by you as the emperor's sister-in-law. It wouldn't hurt to show some concern." Xiao Xuanchen shook his head and grabbed her hand. He just wanted to hear her opinion.

Zheng Xiyan looked cautious and answered carefully: "Princess Rong Le is a princess of Daliang. Princesses are respected by the people of Daliang. It is her unshirkable duty to marry into the alliance. But I am a mother now, and as a mother, I naturally cannot bear to leave my child behind."

"I don't know how to deal with this. I have disappointed Your Majesty." Zheng Xiyan had no intention of interfering in Princess Rong Le's marriage, and she could not interfere in her own fate.

Xiao Xuanchen sighed and said, "The Queen is too serious. I understand. I will return to the Purple Palace first."

Zheng Xiyan helped him up and escorted him out of Weiyang Palace, "Your Majesty, I respectfully send you off."

After Xiao Xuanchen left, Biluo asked, "My Lady, do you think His Majesty will allow Princess Rong Le to marry?"

"He will definitely do that. Princess Rong Le is not his biological sister. Marriage between Daliang and Southern Xinjiang is a custom. For the sake of Daliang's country and people, he will definitely let Princess Rong Le marry." Zheng Xiyan said in a deep voice. She was now somewhat glad that the child she gave birth to was not a princess.

Princesses of the Daliang royal family, whether born legitimate or illegitimate, may be sent to marry a foreign prince. Once married, their chances of returning to their homeland are slim.

"As for Prince Xiang..." Biluo said carefully.

"Prince Xiang has always loved his sister very much. If he knew about this, I think there would be a fuss. And your majesty will definitely make a deal with Prince Xiang for this matter." Zheng Xiyan said in a deep voice. In this life, Princess Rong Le's fate would probably be no different from her previous life.

"Madam, you mean..."

Zheng Xiyan's face was emotionless, and she said in a deep voice: "Go back!"

"Yes!"

After Xiao Xuanchen left Weiyang Palace, he did not return to Zichen Hall, but went to Shoukang Palace.

The Queen Mother was teasing her granddaughter, while Princess Xuanhua was sitting beside her, eating cakes.

Xiao Xuanchen walked into Shoukang Palace and heard the laughter in the palace. He smiled and said, "With Xuanhua accompanying us, there are more laughs in Shoukang Palace."

"Your Majesty is right." The eunuch in front of the emperor echoed.

Xiao Xuanchen walked into the main hall, "What are you so happy about?"

"My brother is here."

"Mother!"

Xiao Xuanchen walked up to the Queen Mother and took his niece, "Come! Let your uncle hold you."

The Empress Dowager immediately noticed that his expression was not right and asked, "Why did the Emperor come here at this hour?"

Princess Xuanhua realized that something big must have happened, so she retreated with her daughter in her arms.

After Xiao Xuanchen sat down, the Queen Mother asked in a deep voice: "What's wrong? Did something happen in the court?"

"The people in Southern Xinjiang are seeking to marry the Princess of Daliang." Xiao Xuanchen said.

The Empress Dowager was calm. The marriage between Daliang and Southern Xinjiang was also a common practice in this dynasty. The Empress Dowager was so anxious to marry Princess Xuanhua off in order to avoid the marriage.

"Nanjiang is seeking marriage with a princess. There are several princesses of the right age in the palace. The emperor can just choose one to marry. Why do you look so sad?" The Empress Dowager said in a deep voice.

Xiao Xuanchen explained: "Rong Le is the only princess of the right age now. Rong Hua is too young."

"Rong Le? Are you worried about Prince Xiang?"

"If Rong Le is allowed to marry far away, King Xiang will definitely not agree."

The Queen Mother sneered, "The princesses enjoy the support of the people of the world, eat the salary of the emperor, and are loyal to the emperor. It is their duty to marry the prince. Even if the prince of Xiang is dissatisfied, do you dare to disobey the order?"

"Prince Xiang and Rong Le have a deep brother-sister relationship. I am worried..." Xiao Xuanchen was worried that he would do something bad to him. After all, he was not sure enough to defeat him.

"What are you afraid of?"

"Mother! I suddenly feel very tired these days." Xiao Xuanchen had a worried look on his face. Since he ascended the throne, he has been restricted in every way. Any decision he made had to balance the forces of all parties.

The Empress Dowager said solemnly: "Emperor, you are the ruler of a country and the master of the world."

"I understand, but I, as an emperor, cannot sit still in peace." Xiao Xuanchen looked dejected and was really tired.

"This is only temporary." The Queen Mother's expression was serious and her voice gradually became louder.

Xiao Xuanchen raised his eyes to look at his mother. After a while, he made up his mind and said with a firm look in his eyes: "I know what to do."

"It's good that you have figured it out. Once you have figured it out, just do it!" said the Queen Mother in a deep voice.

"Yes!"

Princess Shion

When Xiao Xuanchen returned to the Zichen Palace, he summoned Prince Xiang and Princess Rongle.

When Prince Xiang arrived at the Purple Palace, he saw his sister Princess Rong Le was also there. His eyes changed slightly and he became cautious. After paying his respects, he asked, "Your Majesty, why is Rong Le here?"

Princess Rong Le was simple-minded by nature and had just come of age. However, she had never expected that today would be the darkest day of her life.

Xiao Xuanchen said in a deep voice: "Nanjiang submitted a memorial requesting to marry the princess of Daliang. After much thought, Rong Le is the most suitable candidate among the princesses waiting to be married."

The brother and sister were shocked when they heard this. King Xiang knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please take back your order."

"As the princess of Daliang, it is Rong Le's duty to marry for Daliang." Xiao Xuanchen said with a cold expression and eyes.

Princess Rong Le also knelt down. When she thought about marrying far away in southern Xinjiang, leaving Shangjing and going to such a far place, tears instantly flowed out.

"Your Majesty! Rong Le is still young and has been weak since childhood. How can she be married?" King Xiang argued that he would never let his own sister marry in a place like Southern Xinjiang.

"Rong Le has already reached marriage age. How could I not know that she has been weak since childhood? Why can't she go as a prince to marry?" The expression on Xiao Xuanchen's face became increasingly gloomy.

Prince Xiang was flustered. He only had this one sister, how could he bear to watch her marry far away in southern Xinjiang?

"His Majesty!"
