Chapter 395 Divorce Liao Yunfei, as I wished
Xiao Yan'an took the divorce letter and rushed to the palace at full speed.
The emperor was just about to leave the imperial study to meet the queen. After all, the queen had to deal with such a huge mess left behind by her father.
Before he could even leave the imperial study, he was blocked by Xiao Yan'an.
"Your Majesty!" Xiao Yan'an knelt before the emperor and raised the divorce letter in his hand above his head.
The smile in his eyes was not hidden at all, and one could see his thoughts at a glance.
What a heartless person.
It was not easy for Prince Huaiyang and the Princess to raise their only legitimate son into this state.
If Prince Huaiyang was not the son of the late emperor, but was really the son of Prince Ping, he might consider sparing Prince Huaiyang's life.
Unfortunately, there are no ifs in this world.
"What are you doing here?" the emperor asked knowingly.
"Your Majesty, there is a saying that one should marry a virtuous wife, but the concubine that the Empress Dowager has given me is of such bad character that she is unfit to be a wife! If Your Majesty does not allow me to divorce her, it will only affect my reputation, and I am afraid it will also bring shame to the royal family. I beg Your Majesty to allow me to divorce her. From now on, I will have nothing to do with Liao Yunfei!"
The emperor took the divorce letter, took a look at it, then helped Xiao Yan'an up with one hand.
"It is true that the Queen Mother did not think this through. I did not expect that a girl raised in the Duke's Mansion would be so unbearable. An'er, I am sorry for making you suffer."
"Your Majesty, my little grievance is nothing. The most important thing is for Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager to see Liao Yunfei's true face. Besides, she was not raised in the Duke's Mansion. She is born to be this kind of vicious person."
"You are right. I have also seen girls from the Duke's Mansion. They are definitely not educated like this. Especially the girl named Qingqing, she is so straightforward and cute."
When Xiao Yan'an heard the emperor suddenly mention Qingqing, his heart sank. The emperor would definitely not mention Qingqing for no reason, let alone at this time.
"If my cousin Qingqing heard the emperor praising her like this, she would be delighted. Your Majesty, I'm writing this letter of divorce..."
"Approved!" The emperor turned around and walked to the dragon table and spread out the divorce letter.
Chao Sihai immediately brought the imperial seal and placed it on the table.
"Come here, build it yourself."
Xiao Yan'an immediately stepped forward, pressed the imperial seal into the blood-red ink, pressed it hard, then picked it up and stamped it heavily on the divorce letter.
After picking up the imperial seal, the red seal on the divorce letter was particularly bright red.
"Thank you, Your Majesty! I'll take my leave now!" Xiao Yan'an took the divorce letter and ran out like a gust of wind.
The emperor looked at Xiao Yan'an's back, the corners of his lips twitched and he smiled slightly.
"Go to the Queen's Palace."
The Queen has been staying at home very rarely during this period.
The emperor gave an order and asked Cao Yun'er to help manage the six palaces. This Cao Yun'er was even more flamboyant than Concubine Luo back then. For just a small matter, she even sent someone to borrow her phoenix seal.
She is the master of the six palaces. She can refuse to give it, or even teach Cao Yuner a lesson, which is an insubordination.
But, she didn't.
Since the emperor ascended the throne, she has learned to endure.
"Empress, I will only feel relieved if you personally arrange the matter of ***. Over the years, *** has been arrogant and domineering, and you have been the one who has taken care of her. Thank you for your hard work."
"Your Majesty, you are so considerate of me. I don't feel tired at all. It is my duty to share your worries. Don't worry, I will handle this matter. However, Concubine Cao borrowed my Phoenix Seal and has not returned it yet."
"She borrowed the Phoenix Seal?" The emperor sounded a little shocked.
"She is pregnant, so it is not convenient for her to move around. She is also helping me manage the six palaces, so it is indeed inconvenient for her to go back and forth to ask for the Phoenix Seal."
"How dare you! The Phoenix Seal is held by the Empress! Even if she needs to ask for it back and forth, it is her due! I have not thought about it yet. Since she is pregnant, she should take good care of the baby. For the time being, she will not be required to assist in managing the six palaces. She should take good care of the baby in the palace. For three months, she is not allowed to set foot in her own palace!"
"Yes, I understand. In the future, if this happens again, I will definitely not lend you the Phoenix Seal." The Queen responded calmly.
The emperor glanced at the queen, then went over to hold her hand and said, "Queen, you are my wife, and no other woman can replace you. The third prince is not young anymore, have you considered his marriage?"
"The Third Prince's marriage is entirely up to His Majesty." Although the Queen said this, she still felt a little uneasy in her heart.
Since the emperor said so, he must have made plans.
"What do you think of the Duke Rong's Mansion?" asked the emperor.
"Does the emperor want to marry Rong Qingqing, the daughter of the Duke of Rong's mansion, to the third prince?"
"Well, that's exactly what I meant."
"I have met Rong Qingqing, and I also think this girl is very attractive." The queen responded with a smile.
"Then it's settled. I am also planning to let the Third Prince attend the court to listen to government affairs. Now that the new policies are being implemented in the court, he can learn a lot by listening."
"Yes." The queen responded softly.
After seeing the emperor off, the smile on the queen's face froze.
She, the Rongguo Mansion, and the Huaiyang Palace were just taking what they needed from each other. To put it nicely, it was cooperation, but to put it bluntly, it was mutual exploitation.
The emperor actually tied the third prince to the Rongguo Mansion.
She knew that the emperor had absolutely no intention of getting rid of Prince Huaiyang.
In the future, when the emperor gets rid of the Huaiyang Palace, will the Rongguo Palace be able to escape? Her son will also be implicated. Even if he is named the crown prince, his life and death will be in the hands of the emperor!
The queen was indeed a little panicked.
The emperor is not young anymore, and there are only a few princes in the harem. Which prince does the emperor like more? Not only is the fourth prince a grindstone, but even her son, the legitimate son of the empress, is also going to become a grindstone?
Why is the emperor so cruel!
A look of determination suddenly flashed across the queen's eyes.
No matter who the emperor wants to pass the throne to, as long as the third prince becomes the crown prince first, he will have the upper hand.
The emperor's throne was seized in blood and gore.
Her son may also be able to do so!
Thinking of this, the queen's eyes became more determined.
……
When the emperor's decree reached Cao Yun'er, she was playing with the phoenix seal while enjoying the joy of bearing a dragon heir.
"This Phoenix Seal will rightfully belong to me sooner or later!"
"My lady, Chao Si Hai Chao Gong Gong is coming."
"It must be a reward from the Emperor to me!" Cao Yun'er stood up excitedly.
"Your servant greets Empress Consort Cao." He bowed to Sihai with a smile.
Cao Yun'er glanced behind Chao Sihai and did not see any palace maids or eunuchs holding the rewards. The smile on her face immediately froze.
"Eunuch Chao, are you here alone?"
"Your Majesty, I am here to convey the Emperor's order. Please ask Concubine Cao to return the Phoenix Seal to the Empress. In the future, please do not do this again. The Phoenix Seal is held by the Empress. Concubine Cao should not overstep her authority."
Cao Yuner looked a little embarrassed.
Was she taught a lesson by a eunuch?
"You are so arrogant! You dare even a eunuch like me to teach me a lesson?"
