Chapter 1145 The eldest daughter is as bright as spring flowers (two hundred and sixty-eight)
Zhao Jing became the crown prince, and it seemed that he was the next emperor for sure, and the wind direction in the court also changed accordingly.
He is now the crown prince and regent, but since Zhao Jing is only eleven years old, he still needs the assistance of ministers.
After Zhao Jing had been the crown prince for three months, the emperor was suddenly able to get out of bed and his condition seemed to have improved.
Qingli felt something was strange. The emperor had lived several years longer in this life than in his previous one. That was the effect of her health tea and some health pills, but it was not a real panacea.
The emperor's body was frail and his life span had come to an end. He was unconscious every day, just waiting to die.
Wei Ying even secretly told her that the emperor was expected to die this month, and she was thankful that she had married Wei Yan off at the beginning of this year, otherwise Wei Yan would have no chance of getting married after the emperor's death.
During this period of time, the royal family had been prepared for the emperor's death. How come the emperor suddenly woke up and was able to get out of bed and move around?
When she inquired, she found out that Concubine Tian had been doing something big in silence. She had invited a Taoist priest who had an immortal appearance and boundless magical powers. It was said that the Taoist priest's master had lived for more than 300 years and was quite knowledgeable about immortality. After taking a dose of medicine, the emperor's white hair turned black, and his illness was cured. After getting out of bed, he could even ride a horse.
The emperor was delighted and appointed the Taoist priest as the Imperial Preceptor and also appointed Concubine Tian as the Imperial Concubine. The Imperial Preceptor also said that the prince's fate was bad for his father and mother, which was not good for the country. Although His Majesty reprimanded the Imperial Preceptor, he did not punish him.
The prince knelt outside the hall all night, but His Majesty did not summon him or let him go back.
The wind direction in the capital began to waver again.
It happened that Princess Heshun was celebrating her birthday, and Qingli took her daughter to the prince's mansion, where she met the eleventh princess Zhao Han, who had disappeared in the capital for several years. She was dressed in a gorgeous red dress, and looked quite proud.
Back then, because Zhao Yi was dying, Zhao Han was betrothed to her cousin by the emperor. However, the emperor did not transfer the cousin Tian back to the capital, but only promoted him from county magistrate to prefect. Zhao Han was also sent to the south and disappeared in the capital.
When Zhao Yi died two years ago, the emperor recalled the deaths of his fourth son and ninth daughter, and scolded Zhao Yu harshly. Zhao Han was even summoned back to kowtow and mourn for his ninth sister. After suffering a lot, she was not sent back to her husband's home until she was diagnosed with pregnancy.
Qingli asked her brother, "Has the eleventh prince consort been transferred?"
Song Lingji, already an assistant minister of the Ministry of Personnel, said upon hearing this, "The transfer order was issued just yesterday. I'm returning to the capital to serve as a Langzhong in the Ministry of Works' Tuntian Qingli Division. I'll still be a fourth-rank official. Logically... I wouldn't have heard the news so soon."
Qingli understood. It was probably because Concubine Tian still cared about her daughter, so she worked secretly to get Zhao Han back. Since Zhao Han happened to have the merit of offering medicine, the emperor would not be angry.
As for Zhao Yu, it was definitely not because Zhao Yu felt sorry for his sister that he secretly took action to transfer his brother-in-law back. After all, Zhao Yu fell into decline very quickly. He ignored Zhao Han while she suffered over the years. He was ruthless and selfish.
However, even if Zhao Han came back, few of the noble ladies in the capital would respect her. Everyone knew Zhao Han's character. She even harmed her own sister. They only had one life.
Zhao Han looked arrogant, but everyone was distant and polite. No one bothered her, and no one treated her as the center of attention at the party.
"Mom, uncle, brother, brother, play."
Little Jinhua moved around in his uncle's arms, wanting to run down and play with the older brother next to his mother.
Song Yunyuan is also eight years old. He usually pretends to be a little adult, with a calm appearance, and does not allow his family to call him by his nickname. But now when he sees his sister, he becomes a little warm-hearted boy, smiling and wanting to hold her to play. "Auntie, leave my sister to Yuan'er."
Seeing the eager look in his niece's eyes, Song Lingji agreed, but he did not dare to put little Jinhua in his son's arms. Instead, he gave her to the wet nurse to hold.
"Hold on tight, everyone around the young lady and the young master should follow, don't let anything get into trouble."
Song Yunyuan curled his lips. His father was just afraid that he would drop his sister!
"Sister, let me catch butterflies for you!"
Little Jinhua said excitedly: "Catch! Want! Huhu!"
The two children, one big and one small, ran off to play, while Qingli chatted with her brother and took the opportunity to see the lively birthday party.
Watching the new national teacher coming from afar, she raised her eyebrows slightly, her appearance was qualified.
