625, autumn

Overnight, the queen miscarried, Concubine Shu was deposed, the eldest prince was named King, and Meiren Li was pregnant and was named Jieyu. The whole capital instantly seemed like a boiling oil pan that fell into ice, and exploded lively.

"Have you heard that? The queen has miscarriage!"

"I heard that, I heard that! I also heard that it was killed by Concubine Shu!"

"Shu Concubine? But why did I hear that it was the eldest prince? The eldest prince was jealous of the dragon heir in the queen's womb, and was worried that the child would threaten his status when he was born, so he pushed down the queen. The queen was so miscarriage!"

"How can you hear this? If the eldest prince did this, why would the emperor depose Concubine Shu? The eldest prince has nothing to do. I think the eldest prince was implicated by Concubine Shu!"

"My sister works as a servant in the Huang family. Yesterday, she accompanied Miss Huang into the palace. I heard from the people in the palace that the eldest prince pushed down the queen, and the eldest prince would also kill the niece of the queen who witnessed this. If the girl from the Zheng family had not escaped for the death and ran to the banquet and shouted about this, I'm afraid we wouldn't have known about it!"

"Oh my God, if this is true, the eldest prince is too brave! The queen is his legitimate mother! He actually dares..."

"Legitimate mother? What can the legitimate mother do? The eldest prince is the emperor's only son. No matter what he does, the emperor will take care of him, and there are things he dare not? If this woman is gone, she can find her again. If her son is gone, she will be gone. Is this only son more valuable than a woman who can be replaced just by wanting?"

"Your words are rough and not rough! Well, since this matter was done by the eldest prince, why did the emperor depose Concubine Shu?"

"Don't you understand this? The emperor obviously wants to protect the eldest prince, but the empress's miscarriage cannot be just like this, right? The emperor thought to let it go, then the queen and the Zheng family would not want to do it either! I also heard that the queen had left behind a male child! If this was born, it would be a legitimate prince. If this is gone, the emperor would have to give the queen an explanation. There is also the daughter of the Zheng family who was almost killed by the eldest prince. How could he be comforted? The Zheng family is now in a big state, and even the emperor dares not offend him easily. He can only sacrifice Concubine Shu to protect the eldest prince!"

"Have Concubine Shu become the scapegoat for the eldest prince?"

"It may not be possible! The eldest prince was born by Concubine Shu. If the eldest prince can do the thing to push the queen down, maybe it was Shufei who instigated him behind his back! Think about it, if the queen really gave birth to a prince, the eldest prince's status would not be guaranteed, and Concubine Shu would not be guaranteed. How could Concubine Shu be in a hurry? But no matter how anxious she is, she dare not attack the queen, right? If she really does what the emperor can spare her? She wants to do but cannot do, she must find someone to do for her. Isn't this eldest prince the best candidate?"

"If this is true, then Concubine Shu will not be wronged! It's a pity that the queen is gone, and the good prince is gone! The person who harmed her is unscathed. I heard that she was just banned and moved out of the palace!"

"Yes! The emperor now asks the Ministry of Rites to choose a title for the eldest prince!"

"The eldest prince made such a huge mistake. If the emperor doesn't pursue it, he will even be rewarded. Our emperor is really confused!"

"Bah! What are you talking about nonsense? The emperor is not something we can discuss!"

"Well, I'll just say it casually! But, to be honest, the unknown Concubine Li Jie picked up a Qiaozong. Do you think this Concubine Li Jie will become the next Concubine?"

"Concubine Li was diagnosed with pregnancy at this time, but she was really a big advantage! But she cannot be compared with Concubine Shu. The Li family is also a family of officials, which is different from the Liang family!"

"What's the difference? The Liang family was named a marquis because of the eldest prince. This morning, he went to the Li family with the same reward as water. If this Concubine Li was lucky and really gave birth to a prince, the Li family would have a title!"

"Then you have to wait until she really gave birth to a prince! Do you think the prince gave birth to a child just when you want to! Didn't you see that even the queen had miscarriage!"

"Don't this eldest prince all want to be crowned as the king and move out of the palace? Could anyone else dare to attack Concubine Li?"

"Who knows what's going on in this palace? The ten months of pregnancy are still long, so maybe something happens!"

"What are we doing with this? If something big happens in the palace, we won't do our business!"

"That's right, I'm just looking forward to the next autumn rain. It's been drought for several months. If the drought continues, the food for winter will be gone!"

"Hey, who can tell me the truth about God..."

After returning from the palace, the atmosphere of the Zheng family became extremely sluggish. Because of the queen's miscarriage, the Zheng family's status in the capital became subtle. Fortunately, after the queen was pregnant, the Zheng family did not do anything out of favor. Moreover, the Zheng family was not based on the queen in the capital, but the position of the master in the court. Even if the queen had miscarriage, no one dared to target the Zheng family now. Everything was still calm. However, the masters and young men in the Zheng family who were in court were more cautious, fearing that they would lose the handle.

When Xu Shu was staying behind closed doors to recuperate, there was no end to the news outside. Either the court officials argued about the title of the eldest prince, or the emperor rewarded the Li family today, and gave the Li family tomorrow. With Li Ying'er's pregnancy, the Li family became a hot family in the capital. The people who had been rushing to curry favor with the Liang family and the Zheng family began to become guests of the Li family.

The Li family, which is at the forefront of the storm, is inevitably a little fluttered when they are complimented by everyone. They are quite tempted to form cliques. Li Ying'er is only more than a month pregnant, and the Li family can't wait to prepare for the future. Sure enough, once a person is caught in the vortex of power, it is much easier to go with the flow than to withdraw.

The queen is out of pregnancy, and Xu Shu doesn't have to go to the palace to accompany her every now and then. In this way, the news from Jingyuan cannot be found in time. However, Lin Heng still thought of a way to hand it over to the Zheng family. It is still Zhou Jin's letter. Such letters often come to mind. Zhou Jin never says important things in the letter. He mostly mentions Gao Zhinan's current situation. Obviously, he knows that Xu Shu is worried about Gao Zhinan, and Xu Shu still burns after seeing it and does not make any reply.

Xu Shu was in poor health, and the eldest prince was too ruthless. The blood marks on Xu Shu's neck were kept for more than a month until autumn began to fade away. Even the hairpin and serious birthday were all done. Mrs. Zheng thought that Xu Shu was deeply regretful, and thought that Xu Shu was because of the queen and the Zheng family suffered injuries. She felt more and more guilty in her heart. She tried every means to compensate Xu Shu, and even put Zheng Wanfeng's marriage aside.

After more than a month of discussions between the court officials, the title of the eldest prince was finally settled.

King Qing.
