Red Mansion Rebirth: Ghost Phoenix

Chapter 242 Summoning the Concubine

"That's great!" Gan Lan immediately said, "Aunt, this suggestion is great! I've wanted to say it for a long time!

"Now the fetuses of pregnant women are stable, those who have been ill for a long time are recovering, the weather is getting warmer, and the palace will be moved soon.

"Your Majesty should have called them to kowtow and given them some instructions, so that they wouldn't forget who is the master of the rear hall!"

The Crown Princess was a little hesitant.

The prince had told her not to interfere in matters in the back palace. No matter what, she should wait until she entered the Daming Palace before discussing it.

"Just kowtow to let them recognize the real master in the back hall. Let's not mention anything else." Aunt Han was very careful and immediately made up an excuse for her.

The Crown Princess thought: That’s right.

So he sent someone to inform Wang Xifeng: At 3:15 am on March 25th, all the concubines in the Eastern Palace were ordered to come to Cheng'en Hall to pay their respects.

Looking at the arrogant back of the messenger, Wang Xifeng raised her eyebrows: "When you are too quiet, you want to move!"

The abdication ceremony will be held on April 28th.

In the second half of the ceremony, there was a ceremony to enthrone the queen.

Therefore, the Crown Princess had to move into the Daming Palace at least half a month in advance, and everyone in the Eastern Palace had to follow suit. The date for moving the palace had long been set as the ninth day of the fourth lunar month.

Nowadays, Wang Xifeng is very busy every day. All the large luggage in the palaces have been packed. The next step is to spend the Cold Food Festival and Qingming Festival with them, and then they can pack up their bedding and cosmetics and move to the palace.

"Perhaps she was afraid that everyone would panic when the palace was moved, and she was also worried that Liang Di would not be able to be strict due to her status, so she met everyone and said a few harsh words to warn them."

Aunt Meng knew that Wang Xifeng was so tired and angry that she had no place to vent her anger. Princess Heke and Lin Daiyu were both in the princess's mansion and had not returned yet. There was no one around to act coquettishly with, so she had to step forward and try to smooth things over.

He quickly diverted her gaze and said, "I haven't seen you for three days. I wonder how Mei Liangyuan's appetite is."

When Wang Xifeng heard this, she hurriedly called An'er to go and see her: "By the way, let's go outside and ask old doctor Kong if Sister Mei is okay these days and if we need any help."

An'er was busy.

Wang Xifeng finally came to her senses, thought for a moment, and said, "That's right. Aunt is right. Although the prince has given me the power to manage palace affairs, I am only a concubine after all.

“Some things are more suitable for the Crown Princess to say.

"She's scheduled to come in three days anyway, so why don't I write a collection today and give it to her tomorrow, and let her go compete with those girls!"

Aunt Meng covered her lips and laughed: "She's still a little girl! Liang Di herself is only in her early sixteens, and she's acting so old!"

Wang Xifeng was surprised and couldn't help laughing.

The news quickly spread to the front hall.

The prince had just finished his meal with Tao Ge'er and Lin Ruhai. He asked Changying to take Tao Ge'er for a run and play, while he discussed court matters with Lin Ruhai in a low voice.

When the prince heard Jianzhong coming to tell him this, he couldn't help but frown.

Lin Ruhai just smiled and said nothing.

Seeing his expression, the Crown Prince could not help but sigh, "My father chose a princess for me back then. In order for me to live a peaceful life, he chose the most innocent and kind one.

“Who knew we would end up in the East Palace again.

“The place is different, and people’s minds are changing too.

"Now I feel that I am not capable enough in the previous dynasty and it is very strenuous; the Crown Princess in the back palace is also not capable enough and I think it is also very strenuous."

Lin Ruhai smiled but still said nothing.

The prince said, "In fact, your wife Jia's status is very suitable. If she can often go to Cheng'en Palace to accompany the Crown Princess, perhaps both of them can be more open-minded."

"I have already separated from Jia, Your Highness should find someone else to handle this matter." Lin Ruhai immediately distanced himself from the matter, thought for a moment, and then smiled, "In fact, the Crown Princess's uncle seems to be a very good person, so the Crown Prince might as well get in touch with him."

The prince suddenly recalled what he had heard the princess say privately to Zhu Qing: "I don't want my uncle to be promoted through nepotism," and his face darkened.

Lin Ruhai knew at a glance that his uncle was probably up to something, so he changed the subject lightly: "Speaking of wives, I am also bored."

The prince: "Oh? Ru Hai wants to reconcile? Or is your daughter missing her mother and quarreling with you?"

Lin Ruhai shook his head and sighed: "Since my divorce, I don't know how many people have come to propose marriage every day, including some colleagues from the Eastern Palace. They are all well-intentioned and introduce good daughters from good families."

"But right now, the Rong and Ning mansions are about to be in trouble, your ex-wife Jia is in the capital, and it hasn't been two months since you divorced. I'm afraid this matter cannot be arranged."

The prince followed his words and persuaded him gently.

Lin Ruhai held his forehead with a worried look on his face: "Your Highness has been very kind to me. Seeing Your Highness ascend the throne, there are so many things to do in the court. Moreover, I get along very well with the prince, and I am reluctant to part with him.

"Plus my little daughter, Your Highness knows that she is very smart and eloquent. And the princess favors her and often protects her.

“If I were to marry a new wife, she would have to be smarter than my daughter, someone both my daughter and the princess would accept, and someone who could endure the loneliness of living in seclusion.

"Where can I find such a person?"

As he said this, Ru Hai spread his hands and said, "If there is such a good girl, why not find a young talent to be your first wife? What's the point of marrying into a family like mine where half of my body is buried in the ground?"

Yes, what’s the point?

The prince understood Lin Ruhai's subtext and chuckled.

After a moment's thought, he suddenly came up with an idea. He thought that he would have to discuss it with Wang Xifeng, so he put it aside for the time being and just pulled Lin Ruhai aside to discuss state affairs again.

After everyone settled down, the whole palace was silent.

Wang Xifeng called the crow brothers, the long-tailed tit, and Wu Jin to come over and solemnly warned them: "Watch out for Cheng'en Hall and Yiqiu Palace for the next three days. Don't let the Crown Princess get a chance to make a move on Mei Liangyuan!"

Jin Ercai shook his head: "No! No!"

Ugin: Meow.

Wang Xifeng looked at it and said, "What if? Besides, I don't believe that the things Jia Yuanchun inquired about before leaving the palace were useless.

“However, after she left the Eastern Palace, she had not yet had time to send the message out before it was intercepted by Prince Su.

"Sister Mei's pregnancy is extremely important, you must take good care of it for me!"

Wu Jin turned around impatiently and climbed up the tree.

Wang Xifeng snorted, jumped up from the bed, strode to the window, and opened her mouth to cough!

Jin Ercai took advantage of the opportunity to persuade: "The Daming Palace is also important, it is also important."

Only then did Wang Xifeng shut her mouth and watched Wu Jin's figure quickly rush towards the Daming Palace.

The next morning, while eating, Wang Xifeng asked Xia Shouzhong: "I heard that the Queen is ill?"

"Well, I missed Prince Su so much that I cried for several days. I couldn't sleep at night and often had nightmares saying that someone wanted to harm Prince Su. The other day, I heard that he passed out while sleeping at night.

"Mother Hai went to wake him up early in the morning, but he didn't respond after calling for a long time, and then she found him unconscious.

"The Emperor lost his temper and almost had the left judge of the Imperial Hospital, who was treating the Empress, taken down to be beaten with a stick!" Xia Shouzhong knew the details.

Wang Xifeng said "oh", finished her meal as usual, and wiped her mouth: "Let's go see the Crown Princess!"
