C388 Accepting a Concubine That Was Impossible

It's the same thing in the memorial.

He wanted Yu Longchen to pamper the concubines and enrich the six palaces.

Of course Yu Longchen would not agree. He just threw the memorial to the side and did not want to take it. His expression was also not very good.

"Emperor, there is only Empress in the palace. She should indeed take in many concubines." The Ministry of Rites official was the first to speak.

Yu Longchen waved his hand and placed it on his knee. "It is a national funeral and I am the Emperor. Naturally, I have to abide by my duty. I will not think about it. I should talk about taking in concubines in the future."

"Emperor..." The Prime Minister also stood out, "Taking in a concubine is for the sake of the heir of the royal family. Furthermore, after the new Emperor becomes the Emperor, he can take in a concubine. This is a precedent and the Emperor's words are not worth worrying about."

"Zhen is unwilling but you still want to force Zhen? Zhen has the Crown Prince and Empress." Yu Longchen raised his eyebrows and placed his hand on the desk. "The queen is about to arrive in August. During the funeral of the country, you let Zhen take in a concubine. Offending deceased emperor's spirit is unfilial! Seeking joy at the arrival of the Empress. It is unfaithful! You are all old officials, can't you see through all of this? "

"This official thinks that what the Emperor said is very true." Mu Po stood out and rolled his eyes at the Grand Secretariat.

"The Ministry of Rites has been busy with the Empress's matters and have no time to take care of the matter of taking in a concubine. Do not mention it again. Zhen is tired, withdraw!" After Yu Longchen finished speaking, he stood up and left.

The officials had no choice but to bow, "Sending the Emperor off respectfully."

After Yu Longchen left, the officials also slowly retreated.

The Grand Secretariat walked behind Mu Po and snorted coldly. The minister beside him said, "Empress is Prime Minister Mu's direct daughter and Prime Minister Mu does not agree with the Emperor taking in concubines. It is also reasonable. If there are new people entering the Palace, it is inevitable that Empress will be taken away..."

"This official does not understand the words of the Lord. The Emperor doted on Empress. Could it be that we, the officials, can still make the decision? " Mu Po stopped his footsteps and waited for the Grand Secretariat to take two steps. Only then did they walk together, "Not accepting concubines is also the Emperor's intention. We are the officials. We can only give suggestions to the Emperor. Whether we accept or not has nothing to do with us. Furthermore, just like what the First Affiliated Official said, so what if this official hopes that the Emperor will only dote on Empress?"

"You!" The Prime Minister's hand moved slightly and felt that it was not appropriate. He still did not lift it up but was extremely angry.

"This official will be leaving first. Sir, please do as you wish." Mu Po strode out.

When they returned to the Prime Minister's residence, Xiaoxiao followed the wet nurse to wait for Mu Po at the door.

When she saw Mu Po's figure, she was extremely happy. She opened her small hand and ran over. "Daddy."

Mu Po picked her up and pinched her chubby face. "Did you listen to your mother at home?"

"Yes." Xiaoxiao nodded like a sieve. "I miss sister Wangfei. It has been a long time since sister came to see Xiaoxiao."

Mu Po looked at Xiaoxiao's aggrieved look and felt his heart ache. He could not forget to ask her to change her words. "I have to call Empress now. Sister is very busy and does not have time to accompany Xiaoxiao."

"Oh ~ ~" Xiaoxiao pouted and closed her big black eyes. She looked like she was wronged. "I miss sister!"

"Don't cry, don't cry. In a few days, let Little Mother take Xiaoxiao to find Big Sister, okay?" Mu Po said as he carried Xiaoxiao.

Only then did little Xiaoxiao nod her head and laugh out loud.

When they reached the inner courtyard, Mrs Miao was already waiting. She was a lot older, and the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were getting deeper and deeper.

"Mother." Xiaoxiao looked at Mrs Miao and her eyes curved into crescent moons. Under her long eyelashes, there were large pupils. It was so cute that it made one want to pinch it, "Mother will bring me to find Big Sister tomorrow."

"What?" Mrs Miao was a little surprised. She and Mu Ruqing were separated by too many things and it was already the best result that they did not harm each other.

Usually when Mu Ruqing returned to the Prime Minister's residence, she only came to see Mu Po and Xiaoxiao. The two of them did not speak and followed her as the Empress. Mrs Miao always did not want to see her.

"Today I will write a memorial and pass it to the Palace and should be able to enter tomorrow. It is also time for the mother and daughter to meet properly." Mu Po was still teasing Xiaoxiao and did not see the expression on Mrs Miao's face.

"Hello? Alright." Mrs Miao nodded her head. It was not easy for her to hide a little and make Bai Ming forget about his existence.

"I can see sister tomorrow!" Xiaoxiao was dancing on the ground with a happy look on her face.

"Be careful, don't fall." Mu Po squatted down and played with her.

Mrs Miao looked at the two of them. In the next second, her gaze drifted away.

Zhang Mansion.

The snow continued to fall for a few days and the accumulated snow became thicker and thicker. Bai Ming still wore very little clothes as usual as he paced around the room.

Zhang Yi was outside at the same time. He was already wrapped in a lot of clothes, but he still felt a little cold.

"Come in." Bai Ming shook off his clothes and sat back down in his seat domineeringly.

"Sect Leader." Zhang Yi bowed.

"How's the task I asked you to do?" Bai Ming looked elsewhere. "Did Miao Yingyu contact you?"

"I have finished with Sect Leader's instructions. After the girl went back,... There is no news from her." Zhang Yi was thinking about what Bai Ming wanted, but he found that he would never be able to keep up with him. He could only do what Bai Ming had ordered, "If that girl doesn't..."

"She will, but she still needs some time." Bai Ming interrupted Zhang Yi and looked at him. "Do what you need to do. Don't ask about anything else that you shouldn't ask."

"Yes." Zhang Yi nodded in fear. He had forgotten how scary Bai Ming was. "I will take my leave now."

Bai Ming looked impatient and ignored Zhang Yi.

It was harder to work in the Imperial Palace than he thought. Yu Longchen and Mu Ruqing watched too closely.

In the Imperial Palace, his confidants could only do simple things and could not get close to the two of them.

So now, it was time to use the Prime Minister's Estate's mother, Mu Ruqing in name...

With this calculation, there were some things that were much simpler.

Recently, Yun Meng's side should also make a move...

In the Imperial Palace.

Yu Longzi had taken care of the Empress's funeral and applied for sick leave, but he was so quiet that Yu Longchen was worried.

"Is the Emperor thinking of taking in a concubine?" Mu Ruqing knew a little about the matters of the previous dynasty. Since she had nothing to do, she could tease him.

"If you allow it, then I will reluctantly take one or two, right?" Yu Longchen had a troubled look and raised his eyebrows.

"Okay." Mu Ruqing quickly answered him without any hesitation.

Yu Longchen felt sad instead. "Are you going to push me to another woman?" After that, he felt more and more sad, as if he had forgotten something.

"No, no, no." Mu Ruqing felt a little guilty when she remembered that Yu Longchen still could not remember what had happened. She quickly changed her words. "How could I? You are alone."

"Yes ~ Royal Mother is mine." Yu Jingmo suddenly came out from behind and pinched his chin.

Yu Longchen's eyes were cold. He also did the same thing with Yu Jingmo." You haven't grown up yet, and you dare to fight with Royal Father for Royal Mother? Has Royal Father not punished you for a long time? "

"Royal Mother is mine! Humph!" Yu Jingmo put his hand on his waist and shook his head. He closed his eyes and was full of jealousy.

Yu Longchen held him horizontally and pretended to be dignified. "Do you dare?"

"Humph, Royal Father is a bad person!"
