Chapter 1084 Wait Until I Catch You (4)
Caiwei was really troubled by the issue of having an heir. She was only fourteen years old. Giving birth to a child at such a young age would definitely hurt her vitality. It would also be unfair to the love God had given her, and she would be so tender and innocent.
Although she had a hundred objections in her heart, she still said obediently: "Yes, I will follow your mother's instructions!"
Empress Mo saw that Caiwei's attitude was quite respectful, and she felt a little relieved. She said: "Get up. The Empress Dowager hasn't gone yet. Go and kowtow to her!"
When she finished saying "get up", Nangong Yi came over, personally helped Caiwei up, and helped her tidy up her skirt. After hearing that the Empress Dowager asked them to see the Empress Dowager, she bowed and took Caiwei out.
As soon as he left, Concubine Li said with a smile: "Tsk tsk, our queen is so proud and proud. A ceremony of enthronement can make her tired and take a rest. How can such a weak woman give birth to a strong little prince?"
Queen Mo said coldly: "It is not your turn as a concubine to comment on the matter of the royal heir. You have been talking more and more recently. It seems that I copied too few Buddhist scriptures last time and failed to calm your mind. "
Concubine Li said: "The queen mother blamed me wrongly. I was just worried. This morning I heard that our emperor issued an edict saying that he would never take concubines in the harem. I thought that the queen was so weak. If there were no other concubines in the harem, how could the emperor have more branches? I really don't know what the emperor was thinking at the time. He actually issued such a shocking edict. "
Empress Dowager Yao said with a smile: "What's so shocking? It's just that our emperor is loyal and righteous, and he really cares about our queen!"
Empress Dowager Li said with a smile: "How can it be that our emperor is loyal and righteous? In my opinion, it is the charm of our queen that not only attracts our emperor to be devoted to her, but even the Saknu Khan of Liaodan is still obsessed with her. Tsk tsk, it's really amazing. By the way, there is also Concubine Dowager Huo's brother, the richest man in Dajin..."
"Empress Dowager Li, kneel down and pay your respects!"
Empress Mo's voice became cold, "From now on, without my summons, you will stay in Yiqiu Garden to reflect on your mistakes, and you are not allowed to walk around at will!"
Empress Mo interrupted Concubine Dowager Li coldly. Although she did not explicitly say that she was confined, the fact has shown that Concubine Dowager Li was confined indefinitely.
Empress Dowager Li stood up, bowed to the queen lightly, and turned her waist to go out.
Unlike Concubine Jin, Empress Mo's punishments for the concubines in the palace did not have any deterrent effect. She did not confine the concubines to their homes or punish them to copy Buddhist scriptures, but she would not kill people or exterminate their entire clans like Concubine Jin.
Therefore, Concubine Li was not afraid of her, and dared to be fearless and speak freely in front of her without worrying about what would happen to her!
Concubine Yao and Concubine Huo noticed that the queen mother was angry, and hurriedly got up and said goodbye, and quietly went out, leaving Queen Mo alone in the palace depressed!
She had known for a long time that Nangong Yi promised to live with Mu Caiwei for the rest of his life, but she did not expect her son to do it for real. He actually announced this agreement to the world with great fanfare, which caused dissatisfaction among many meritorious officials who planned to send their daughters to the palace. If he did not announce it to the world, he could marry another woman at any time; and if he announced it to the world, marrying another woman would be regarded as breaking his promise, which would invisibly reduce his prestige as a monarch.
She knew her son well. Nangong Yi would never come up with such absurd ideas of "a lifetime together". These ideas must have been instilled in him by Mu Caiwei, and the edict that the harem would never take concubines must have been instigated by her. This woman was really too ambitious. Thinking of this, Empress Dowager Mo's mood suddenly became gloomy...
