Chapter 357 Sincerity
Xie Run couldn't help but look back at the Sixth Prince who was playing with Taotao.
Now this has become a hot potato.
Dan Tao also realized: "My Lady, Lady Xian Zhaoyuan won't hold a grudge against you for this, right?"
Xie Run said: "Hold the grudge if you want, but I can't say anything unless the emperor speaks up."
"If she is really so foolish, she will suffer if she raises the Sixth Prince in the future."
Ever since Xian Zhaoyuan mentioned that the Sixth Prince had been wronged, Xie Run could not ignore this matter.
After taking care of the first thing, Xie Run had no say in the rest.
Xie Run didn't want to get involved with the Sixth Prince at all, but at this point, the Emperor didn't say anything, and Xie Run had to carry this hot potato of the Sixth Prince even if he didn't want to.
Over there, Xian Zhaoyuan felt wronged and returned to her palace to wipe away her tears.
I cried for a long time and my eyes were swollen, not to mention the grievance in my heart.
Xian Zhaoyuan couldn't help but complain to the maidservants, "She clearly has her own prince, and is favored by the emperor. Sooner or later, she will be able to give birth to another prince or princess. Why does she still cling to the Sixth Prince, who is not her biological son?"
"I just visited the Sixth Prince a few more times, but she got impatient and told me to go find the Emperor. I suffered humiliation for nothing."
"I have never had any grudge against her, why would she treat me like this?"
Wen Jin, the maidservant beside her, couldn't bear to see this and couldn't help but say, "Master, Concubine Zhaode may not want to raise the Sixth Prince."
"If you want to keep the Sixth Prince by your side, you will have to pass the Emperor's test sooner or later."
"You visit the Sixth Prince at the Zhaohe Palace every day. How could others not guess what you're thinking? Concubine Zhaode is reminding you to quickly ask the Emperor for permission first, to avoid future trouble."
Wen Jin originally wanted to say that her master's intentions were known to everyone, but it would be unpleasant to say and it would inevitably be over the line.
She could only persuade him in a roundabout way: "Now everyone is focusing on the child in Wu Baolin's belly, but few people are paying attention to the Sixth Prince."
"If you visit every day, everyone will inevitably think of the Sixth Prince. If someone else wants to raise him, will you really fight for him?"
You know your own master.
Xian Zhaoyuan looks weak on the outside, but she is even more temperless on the inside.
When faced with such humiliation as today, she would hide in her room and cry, even though she resented Concubine Zhaode.
After two days, when he saw Concubine Zhaode, he was so scared that he didn't even dare to fart.
Instead of doing this, it would be better to persuade her to be more open-minded and not make things difficult for herself.
When Xian Zhaoyuan heard that someone was paying attention to the Sixth Prince, and that she would have to compete with others for the custody of the Sixth Prince, she instantly became a little scared.
"The only ones who can raise children in the palace now are Concubine Sun and Concubine Wen."
"Princess Sun was reprimanded by the Emperor and even had her title demoted. How could the Emperor let her raise the prince?"
"Concubine Wen is a princess of the Xia Dynasty. Even the queen is not qualified to raise a child, let alone Concubine Wen?"
Xian Zhaoyuan spoke to herself, but when she met Wen Jin's silent face, she instantly lost her confidence.
She pulled at her handkerchief and thought for a long time before gritting her teeth and saying, "Forget it...at worst, I'll just shamelessly go to the Imperial Study twice more. If enduring two days of humiliation can support the Sixth Prince, it's worth it."
Wen Jin stepped forward to wipe Xian Zhaoyuan's tears, "Your Majesty, you are right to think this way. If you want to raise the Sixth Prince, you must show your sincerity."
"The more people in the palace laugh at you, the more you must let the emperor see your attitude. At least let the emperor know that you have endured such humiliation for the Sixth Prince, and you will never treat the Sixth Prince unfairly in the future."
"If you can't even stand a few rumors and a bit of indifference, how can the emperor believe that you sincerely want to support the Sixth Prince?"
Xian Zhaoyuan was immediately convinced and nodded repeatedly, "If the emperor doesn't see me today, I will go tomorrow. If he doesn't see me tomorrow, I will go the day after tomorrow... In short, this is the only solution I have."
"I only hope that the Emperor will consider me for the sake of our past friendship."
She doesn't even ask for favor, she just wants a prince to be raised by her side. Why is it so difficult?
Xian Zhaoyuan still hasn't realized that her sudden fall from favor was due to her involvement in the affairs of the Queen and the Queen Mother.
She just felt that it was her father who was corrupt and became a criminal, which caused her to incur the emperor's dislike.
Or maybe thinking this way would make her feel better.
After all, it is easier to blame others than to blame yourself.
As she spoke, Xian Zhaoyuan began to envy Concubine Xi again.
She murmured, "Why is her life so good?"
"I had only served the Emperor a few times when I became pregnant. I kept it a secret and didn't announce it until March. This greatly pleased the Emperor, who immediately promoted me and gave me a title."
Wen Jin sighed secretly in her heart.
Why doesn’t my master understand?
It was not just luck that Concubine Xi was able to secretly carry the child until three months without telling anyone.
The master and servant each had their own thoughts, but they always hoped that their lives would get better.
Two days later, when Xie Run woke up at noon, he saw a vast expanse of white all around.
"It only stopped for two days, and it started raining again."
She gathered her white fox cloak and prepared to go out for a walk.
Suddenly, someone came to report: "Xian Zhaoyuan went to the imperial study again with soup."
Xie Run's eyes were calm. "This is the fourth day, right? She's quite persistent."
It was normal for concubines to be refused admission to the imperial study.
The first time I was rejected, everyone just laughed it off, and at most one or two people mentioned it when they were discussing it.
After being rejected for the second time, rumors started to spread in the palace.
After being rejected for the third time, Xian Zhaoyuan became a joke known to all the palaces.
Xie Run originally thought that she was weak in character and would probably retreat if she encountered such a thing.
Now that Xian Zhaoyuan was able to return to the imperial study despite all the rumors, Xie Run began to look at her with a new respect.
Xie Run made an appointment with Concubine Lu and Concubine Fang to appreciate the plum blossoms together today.
As soon as she saw the shadow of the wintersweet, she received more news.
"The Emperor met with Xian Zhaoyuan."
Xie Run smiled and said, "As expected."
I'm afraid that given the emperor's character, he had intentionally refused to see Xian Zhaoyuan for the past three days.
The emperor also knew that the women in the backyard had their own thoughts. For the sake of his own offspring's long and stable life, he certainly would not just hand the sixth prince over to someone else to raise.
Now let’s just see how Xian Zhaoyuan behaves in front of the emperor.
Neither Concubine Lu nor Concubine Fang were well-informed, and at this time they had no idea that Xian Zhaoyuan had been summoned by the emperor.
The two men greeted Xie Run.
Xie Run smiled and said, "This snow came just in time."
Lady Lu smiled and said, "Your Majesty is absolutely right. Admiring only the plum blossoms is too monotonous. Now that the snow scene has been added, the two combined into one is truly worth admiring."
Concubine Fang is a reserved person, and no one knows how Concubine Lu became friends with her.
One of these two people is eloquent, while the other is speechless. They are a perfect match for each other.
Xie Run jokingly said, "Since just admiring the plum blossoms is too monotonous, why did you invite me to come and admire them?"
Lady Lu smiled and said, "It's my fault. Isn't it that without snow, we can only enjoy the plum blossoms? Today, the weather is kind, and the plum blossoms are covered with white snow. This is a good omen."
"You are becoming more and more talkative."
Concubine Fang just followed beside him with a gentle smile and didn't say much.
