The eldest lady is reborn, get out of the way!

Pei Zhi was just wondering how to start when someone suddenly came running in and said it was a letter from Duke Lu.

Pei Zhi caught a glimpse of red.

That had to be expedited, so red was used.

Lu Qingxiao stood up and took the letter from the visitor.

I opened it quickly and read through it quickly.

Pei Zhi was standing aside, watching Lu Qingxiao's expression change.

"There is an urgent matter. I need to go to the palace." Lu Qingxiao looked at Pei Zhi and said, "I'll leave it to you. Send them if you have anything."

Pei Zhi nodded, "Okay."

Lu Qingxiao left without stopping.

When Pei Zhi saw him leave, he felt a little guilty.

He secretly hated himself for being indecisive. The Pei family had never been involved in party disputes.

Naturally, he didn't want to get involved in the dispute between the princes.

Lu Qingxiao has a closer relationship with the Duke of Yingguo’s Mansion.

He really...

Well, now that things have come to this, we can only take it one step at a time.

Pei Zhi lowered his head and his eyes fell on the prince's formal dress that Prince Fu, the clerk, had worn in previous years.

He once wrote about the physical measurements of the two princes.

Although Emperor Rong'an has not issued a clear decree yet.

But the prince's ceremonial dress that the Ministry of Rites asked to be prepared this year was obviously that of Prince Xuan.

Even though the size was changed two years ago, the two princes have grown up and their height will not change.

I believe that not only he, but other people who are interested can also see this point.

-

The other person with ulterior motives mentioned by Pei Zhi was naturally Xie Ji.

Xie Ji had many disciples, and there were quite a few of his students in the six departments.

The current Minister of Rites is Yu Rukui, but under the Minister, there must be acquaintances of Xie Ji among the Vice Ministers and Doctors.

Because the King of Wei was under house arrest by Emperor Rong'an, Xie Ji tried his best to get the King of Wei to take away the title of Welcoming Envoy.

But Yu Rukui acts differently from his predecessor. The people he chooses are all very rigid.

After asking around, Xie Ji discovered that none of them was his disciple.

At this point, Xie Ji realized that the new Minister of Rites was wary of him.

He could only get what he wanted indirectly from other places.

In previous years, Prince Fu was the welcoming envoy. This year, Prince Fu is ill, so it is the turn of the two princes.

The prince's formal dress had to be remade.

The body shapes of King Wei and King Xuan are somewhat different. As long as we can find this out, it won't be too difficult.

The people from the Ministry of Rites were on high alert, and Xie Ji had no intention of fighting to the death with Yu Rukui.

He sent a message to Empress Chenfei, asking her to go to the Clothing Bureau to find out some information.

The Concubine Chen knew that her brother was doing this for the good of his son, so she naturally spared no effort to find out more about the matter.

Her son and daughter are now under house arrest, and her granddaughter has been sent to the Empress Dowager's palace.

Even she couldn't see it.

Not only was Princess Xuan generously rewarded by Emperor Rong'an, but her son was also conferred the title of Prince of Rongshan less than three days after he was born.

Is there any precedent for this in the entire Zhou Dynasty?

Originally, my brother had arranged for people to object during the morning court session, but he didn't expect this matter to be so difficult to handle.

Emperor Rong'an had a particularly tough attitude, and anyone who came out to give advice would be scolded back by him personally.

With so many unexpected events, it was not surprising that Concubine Chen was worried.

Seeing that her son was about to lose, she had to fight for the title of Welcoming Envoy for Ying Yan!

Concubine Chen had good intentions and she forgot that there was also a noble concubine in the palace.

-

When the Imperial Concubine learned that the Concubine Chen had actually extended her hand to the Clothing Bureau, a sneer appeared on her lips.

"Since she wants to know the news, give her the news."

Compared with the speculations of the ministers outside, the imperial concubine had some understanding of Emperor Rong'an.

Even if Emperor Rong'an is partial to Prince Wei, he will never let Prince Wei out now that he is under house arrest.

But since the Concubine Chen is so anxious, why not let her relax first?

The female official beside the imperial concubine bowed her head slightly when she heard this: "It has been arranged. Our people have prepared two sets of clothing sizes."

A smile appeared on the beautiful face of the imperial concubine: "I trust you the most when it comes to handling matters."

The female official lowered her eyes and smiled softly, "This servant is in this situation today because of your good teaching."

The imperial concubine thought that the concubine would tell Xie Ji after receiving the false news, and Xie Ji would make a wrong judgment as a result.

She seemed much more relaxed.

There was a fire in Prince Xuan's mansion on New Year's Day, and the Qiao family was dealt with seriously.

Your Majesty, your palms and backs of your hands are made of flesh, but she is not.

Xie Ji had repeatedly ruined her plans, and it was time for her to cause trouble for Xie Ji.

"You tell me, will His Majesty..."

The imperial concubine stopped talking as soon as she opened her mouth.

She showed a look of annoyance, and the female official next to her thought she was deaf and heard nothing.

Not even an eyebrow moved.

"Forget it. Why should I think about this?" The imperial concubine laughed, but her smile disappeared.

"Go to the storeroom and take the black lacquered ivory screen that can cure all diseases to the princess."

As soon as the imperial concubine finished speaking, the female official looked at her in surprise and said, "Your Majesty, this is the tribute that His Majesty specially selected for you."

"How did you..."

The imperial concubine's expression froze for a while, then she leaned lazily to the side, and her tone became lazy as well.

"If you don't use something good to apologize, how can people see your sincerity?"

The female official didn't dare to speak.

The day before yesterday, King Xuan came to the palace to pay his respects, but he only met the imperial concubine once and then left.

Didn't even drink tea.

When the imperial concubine asked, she found out that the wet nurse she had chosen before was taken advantage of by someone and was given a drug that caused a sore throat.

If such a wet nurse fed the little prince, I'm afraid he would get sick.

Could it be that, Madam...

The imperial concubine glanced at the female official in a casual manner and said, "After all, he is my eldest grandson, so I am not that cruel."

The female official immediately knelt down and kowtowed to apologize.

The imperial concubine just smiled and didn't blame her, she just gave an order.

"Since you are going to apologize, you have to consider other people's expressions."

The female official's heart trembled. She heard the warning in the imperial concubine's words, and her body, which was already lying on the ground, lowered even lower.

The imperial concubine leaned on the beauty couch and closed her eyes, and the female official retreated cautiously.

After leaving the bedroom, the female official's expression became cold again. She named two confidants to follow her to the warehouse.

The female official was also thoughtful. When she left the palace, she specifically asked the people in the palace of the Concubine Chen to see her.

As expected, the people in Chen Fei's palace told Chen Fei that the maidservant beside the imperial concubine had taken some things out of the palace.

In the past, this news would have been ignored by Concubine Chen.

It's not a festival at this time, so why would the imperial concubine send the female official beside her to deliver something to Prince Xuan's mansion?

It was not until Concubine Chen received the news from the Clothing Bureau that night that she reacted.

Did the imperial concubine know that King Xuan had no hope of selecting an envoy to welcome guests, so she sent the gifts out to appease him?

For a moment, the Concubine Chen did not find it ridiculous.

Perhaps it was because the imperial concubine did so many impolite things like this in her daily life that the imperial concubine actually got used to it.

She calmed herself down and ordered someone to pass the news from the Clothing Bureau to her brother.

I hope Yan'er can do a good job this time and regain the favor of His Majesty.
