Quick Wear: The stupid beauty with multiple pregnancies makes the heirless boss cry
Chapter 541: The Money-obsessed Concubine x The Emperor Who Has No Heir (41)
She became more and more panicked, but before she could find out the reason for her panic, she was sent out of the palace by the emperor.
"Your Majesty, has something happened? Why should I leave the palace?"
The emperor stroked her hair gently and said gently, "Xi'er, the weather has been cool lately, and the Queen Mother wants to go out of the palace to worship Buddha. I want you to go with her so that you can share in the blessings."
"Your Majesty, what happened?"
She didn't believe that he would go out to worship Buddha at this time. She was pregnant and would give birth soon. How could she go out at this time?
"It's really alright, just follow your mother out of the palace, I'll pick you up after I've arranged everything here."
"Can't your majesty come with us?"
"I still have a lot of government affairs to deal with. Once I'm done with this, I promise to pick you up as soon as possible."
Rong Xi saw that the emperor was not going to say anything more, so he did not ask any more questions.
But he turned around and asked the system, "System, what has the emperor been doing during this period?"
The system cannot find out things that are not in the plot, but it can still find out what the emperor is doing during this period.
System [Please wait a moment. I will check it for you. ]
After a while, Rong Xi received the news found by the system. It turned out that the reason why the emperor had been missing for a while was because he was making arrangements for the upcoming anniversary of the death of the late emperor.
Not only had he discovered the intentions of General Zhenbei and Prince Jia long ago, he had also had most of the military power taken away from him.
The reason why they were asked to leave was because they were afraid that something might happen on the anniversary of the late emperor's death. If Prince Jia's people found them, they would most likely use them as bargaining chips to threaten the emperor.
The emperor examined them in this way. If Prince Jia really succeeded, the country would change hands.
"So that's it."
System [Rong Xi, are you still leaving? ]
"Leave. Check for me how the Prince Jia is preparing. What are their chances of success in this coup?"
The system tapped on the keyboard for a while, and soon reported the situation over there to Rong Xi.
System [Rong Xi, although Prince Jia has been a monk for many years, it was just a cover. The temple where he became a monk has become his base camp, and he has also raised a lot of private soldiers over the years. With the addition of General Zhenbei, the chances of success may be quite good.]
Rong Xi was silent for a while. The fact that Prince Jia was causing such trouble showed that the imperial court had gathered a lot of talented people to have the confidence to do so.
At night, the emperor, who was still planning the day's events in the imperial study, took a nap when a note was placed on the desk.
The emperor looked around but didn't see anyone suspicious.
Eunuch Jinsu was also a little confused just now. When the emperor asked him if anyone came in, his heart tightened, but in the end he was afraid of his head falling off, so he said that no one came in.
The emperor frowned even more tightly and opened the note in his hand, on which appeared the names of many court ministers.
Many of these people are important figures in his arrangement this time.
At the very bottom, there was a line of small words written: Prince Jia’s people.
The emperor had a stern expression and cold eyes. These so-called people who had devoted their lives to the country and died for it had actually secretly defected to Prince Jia. So don't blame him for being cruel.
In the past few years, not much has happened in the court, and everything has been going on as planned. And His Majesty the Emperor has always handled government affairs with a gentle attitude, without too many ups and downs.
In addition, he has been known for his gentleness and courtesy since he was a prince, so these people think that he is a friendly and easy-going person.
But how could someone who could survive among so many princes at that time and finally seize the throne be someone who is simple and easy to control?
He arranged everything overnight, sending all the people on the list to do unimportant tasks or asking them to be busy with their own family affairs.
All the important checkpoints on the day of the sacrifice were replaced by their own people.
After doing all this, he returned to Rong Xi. It was already dawn, but it had become a habit for him. He couldn't fall asleep without looking at her.
However, Rong Xi, who had always been light-headed, could not hear any noise in the late stage of pregnancy, so she woke up as soon as the emperor came in.
"His Majesty."
"Xi'er, did I disturb you?"
"No, I can't sleep either."
The candles in the room were lit. Rong Xi looked at the emperor's face full of fatigue, then he lifted the quilt and let him lie down.
"Your Majesty, why are you here so late today? Has something happened?"
"No, Xi'er, just rest assured and take care of your baby. I will definitely protect you and your child."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will protect our child well."
"Xi'er, leave with the Queen Mother the day after tomorrow. I promise to come find you as soon as the sacrifice is over."
Rong Xi finally nodded. He felt that his big belly would become a burden if he stayed here. Now that he knew the traitor on the list, nothing should happen to him.
"Okay, I will take good care of the Queen Mother."
"The Queen Mother has the nannies around her to take care of her. Just take care of yourself."
The emperor gave Rong Xi a jade token and said, "Xi'er, I will send a team of soldiers to escort you there. Seeing this token is like seeing me. They will protect you."
"Your Majesty, are you going to do something dangerous?"
The emperor didn't say anything, but this silence was enough to prove that Rong Xi's guess was correct.
"Your Majesty, no matter what you do, you must take good care of yourself. Your concubine and the children will always be waiting for you."
"Don't worry, Xi'er, I will."
Rong Xi and the Queen Mother left after all. They left through a secret passage at night and no one knew about it. They only told outsiders that they were unwell and were recuperating in the palace.
The emperor also made arrangements for other concubines.
Those with no problems with their identities were allowed to make their own choices, whether to stay in the palace or leave home to get married, or to leave with any identity they wanted. The emperor would give them a sum of money that they could not spend in their lifetime.
Concubine Ning was the first one to be called over. She was reluctant to leave, but she knew that if she stayed in the palace, she would have no other possibility except living the rest of her life filled with jealousy and resentment.
Moreover, she has no children, and her life may be even more miserable in the future.
What's more important is that she probably guessed what would happen this time. If she stayed in the palace, she might not survive. His Majesty was giving them a choice.
In the end, she took the silver and the land deed and left. From then on, it would be better to keep a dozen handsome men outside the palace than to be trapped in this palace.
Of course, not everyone thought the same way as she did. Concubine Li was unwilling to leave the palace, and could not guess what had happened behind the scenes. She just thought that the emperor disbanded the harem because of Jiang Rongxi.
"Your Majesty, I have been in the palace for many years. Even if I have no merit, I have worked hard. I know that I am not as good as Concubine Rong, but I really will not compete with Concubine Rong for her life. As long as she has a foothold in the harem with me, it will be enough."
