Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 116
"The emperor has changed his previous attitude. It seems that the second prince has great hope of being crowned prince!"

Lu Hao took the opportunity to say.

"Well, you are right, but who else knows about this?"

Concubine Yi nodded slightly and asked.

"My slave was the first to get the news and rushed to inform Sister Yi."

Lu Hao smiled flatteringly.

"You think of a way to publicize this matter and let more people know about it, do you understand?"

Concubine Yi made a quick decision and explained.

"Understood, Xiao Liuzi will do it right away."

Lu Hao readily agreed.

Since both the emperor and Concubine Yi wanted to publicize this matter, Lu Hao had no choice but to follow the trend and spread the matter.

When the Queen Mother learned of the news, she asked Shangguan Cheng to suspend his actions and wait and see what would happen.

When Yu Qian and Yu Wenji got the news, they were stunned.

Although Lu Hao didn't know about these conspiracies, the tense atmosphere in the palace immediately eased a lot.

Many concubines and nobles are choosing beautiful clothes, expensive jewelry, and exquisite makeup in preparation for the palace banquet tomorrow night.

The princes, ministers, ladies and ladies outside the palace were also busy.

Of course, what interests these people the most is undoubtedly Princess Heshuo and Princess Furong of the two countries.

It is said that the two princesses are beautiful and beautiful, and are the most beautiful women in the two countries.

Both men and women want to see these two stunning beauties.

……

The emperor's postponement of the appointment of the crown prince soon spread throughout the palace.

Lu Hao returned to Qianyuan Palace and was praised by Murong Yuan.

However, Murong Yuan was obviously a little wary of the Empress Dowager. After reviewing the memorial, he immediately took Lu Hao to Cining Palace.

The Queen Mother naturally also got the news, so her attitude towards Murong Yuan became much better.

"My son, please be safe to my mother!"

Murong Yuan behaved very respectfully.

"The Emperor has many things to do, but he also took time to visit the Ai family. The Ai family is very pleased."

The Queen Mother said with a cheerful smile.

"After a few days of careful consideration, I feel that it is not advisable to rush the appointment of a crown prince. I have decided to wait until the Double Ninth Festival to worship our ancestors, so I came here to tell my mother."

Murong Yuan said.

"The appointment of a crown prince will help consolidate the country and the country. Now that the emperor has made a decision, the Ai family is very pleased."

The Empress Dowager was talking about the scene.

"Actually, when I come here this time, I have one more thing that I want my mother to help me with."

Murong Yuan said seriously.

"Oh! I don't know what the big deal is. The emperor said that he should talk to the Ai family. Although the Ai family may not necessarily help the emperor make decisions, they can help the emperor to check things."

The Queen Mother became interested.

"My mother, the two princesses of Jin and Shu have come and want me to send troops to help them attack the Xixia Dynasty. I wonder what my mother thinks?"

Murong Yuan went straight to the point and asked straight to the point.

"The Kingdom of Jin and the Kingdom of Shu have always had a good relationship with our Great Yan Empire. However, just because of the two princesses they sent, they want our Great Yan Empire to send troops. They are too good at thinking! But..."

Shangguan Fengyi sneered.

"But what?"

Murong Yuan asked with a frown.

"However, if we can carve up the Xixia Dynasty, we can send troops."

Shangguan Fengyi responded.

"The Western Xia Dynasty is one of the most powerful empires among the eighteen dynasties. Even if we send troops, we will probably only be able to defeat them. It will still be very difficult to destroy the country."

Murong Yuan said thoughtfully.

"Actually, it is not impossible to destroy the Xixia Kingdom. As far as the Ai family knows, the main forces of the Xixia Kingdom are fighting against the Jin and Shu Kingdoms. If there are surprise troops attacking their rear, it is not impossible to destroy the Xixia Kingdom. impossible."

Shangguan Fengyi analyzed in detail.After being prompted, Murong Yuan's pupils shrank, and a huge plan was instantly formed in his mind.

"Since the Queen Mother said so, I think it's totally okay to give it a try."

Murong Yuan's eyes flashed with commanding light.

"What has the Emperor decided to do?"

Shangguan Fengyi asked with a smile.

"General Pingxi has to defend the long border, so I decided to dispatch Generalissimo Chen Lin's Yulin Army to attack Xixia."

Murong Yuan expressed his thoughts.

"Your Majesty is wise!"

Shangguan Fengyi praised with great joy.

The Yulin Army is Chen Lin's private army, sent to attack Xixia. If they win, they can divide Xixia. If they lose, the Yulin Army can be abolished.

Of course, if both sides suffer losses, it would be even more perfect if the empire sends troops to invade Xixia and wipe out the Yulin army as well.

The two mother and son really have a good understanding!
Murong Yuan and the Queen Mother looked at each other and smiled knowingly.

"Since the Queen Mother also thinks it's okay, I will immediately issue an order to Chen Lin after I have discussed the interests with the princesses of the two countries."

Murong Yuan added.

"Your Majesty, feel free to do it. The Aijia supports you!"

The Queen Mother encouraged.

She had wanted to deal with Chen Lin for a long time, but she never had the chance. Since the emperor also wanted to attack the Yu Lin Army, that would be great.

"Xiao Liuzi, on my behalf, go talk to the two princesses and see how the two sides divide Xixia?"

Murong Yuan immediately handed over the matter to Lu Hao.

"Minions take orders!"

Lu Hao responded quickly.

"Xiao Liuzi, carving up the Xixia Kingdom is not that simple. If the Xixia Kingdom is not destroyed, we must come up with a plan to divide the occupied cities."

The Queen Mother interrupted and reminded.

"The servant understands!"

Lu Hao responded again.

The two mother and son chatted for a while and went about their daily affairs before Murong Yuan said goodbye and left.

……

time flies.

In the evening of the next day, the palace banquet kicked off.

The brightly lit Changqing Palace, with flying ribbons and colorful flags, feels like a festival.

There was a constant stream of eunuchs and maids making final preparations.

In the broad square, the Imperial Guards set up posts three steps and one sentry five steps apart, and also set up a long cordon.

Shangguan Cheng, who was responsible for tonight's security guard, was at the entrance with a few close friends, greeting every distinguished guest entering the dinner according to the list provided by Lu Hao.

Of course, their welcome also includes checking whether they have weapons, other poisons, or hidden weapons.

Master Deng and Master Lu of Honglu Temple stood at the gate of Changqing Palace, taking charge of the overall situation and commanding decisively.

There was already a long queue of people entering the palace, including princes, ministers, and relatives of the emperor.

"Concubine Li is here!"

"Concubine Yi is here!"

"The Queen Mother is here!"

"..."

Along with the eunuch's shouts, the concubines and nobles in the palace also came one after another.

In the hall of Changqing Palace, on the three-story high platform, the emperor's throne is naturally placed in the middle.

On the left side of the second floor is the Queen Mother's special seat.

Behind the Queen Mother, there are two seats specially prepared for the Queen Mother's two grandchildren.

Being able to sit behind the Empress Dowager was a great honor given to the Empress Dowager by Lu Hao.
