Chapter 443 No more fun

That night, the eldest princess came to the palace to visit Emperor Ming. The two siblings were chatting in the palace.

Emperor Ming took a sip of tea, sipped it twice in his mouth, and couldn't help complaining to the eldest princess: "Since Bo Yue became the emperor, I have become an ascetic. Sister, try this tea, where can you still find it?"

It tastes good, and what I love most is the snow-topped emeralds brought as tribute from the Western Regions, but unexpectedly, Bo Yue waved his hand and actually stopped allowing these things to enter the palace."

The eldest princess replied: "We have traveled thousands of miles to make donations from outside the vassal state. We have wasted people and money along the way, and we don't know how much money we have to spend. Now that the national treasury is empty, Boyue also wants to save money. You, just make do with what you have."

Emperor Ming sighed and continued to complain: "I don't know, eldest sister, Bo Yue ordered to lay off most of the palace people a while ago. Look, my palace is so deserted now that it makes me panic."

The eldest princess sneered and said: "It also costs money to raise so many palace people. If you are bored, just find your young concubines to relieve your boredom."

Emperor Ming waved his hands and said: "I am really old now, and I can't stand the noise of those young concubines."

With that said, he ordered to Li Dequan who was waiting on the side: "Eldest sister and I are sitting here, and we will go to the Yuefu to pick some singers and play a little tune to relieve our boredom."

Li Dequan bowed and replied: "Reporting to the Emperor, all those singers who can play small songs have been sent out of the palace by His Majesty."

When Emperor Ming heard this, he asked anxiously: "When did this happen?"

Li Dequan replied truthfully: "His Majesty gave the order the day before yesterday, and all of them were sent away yesterday. Only those who played rituals and music were left, and the rest were all sent away."

Emperor Ming languished on a soft chair, with a grimace on his face, and complained to the eldest princess: "Eldest sister, look at it, this is not a palace, it's really more miserable than the temple."

The eldest princess replied: "Bo Yue has never liked singing and dancing. Even the palace has never had the tradition of raising singers and dancers. Now that you are getting older, it is better not to indulge in sensuality. Those palace concubines stay here."

It’s all wasted in the palace, so it’s better to let it go out of the palace.”

Emperor Ming sighed and said: "This Bo Yue's temperament really doesn't follow me at all."

As he spoke, he curiously said to the eldest princess: "I heard that a while ago, a courtier advised Boyue to accept a harem, but Boyue scolded him in the court. Tell me, what do you think about this child? How can there be an emperor?"

Just stick to the principle of living a woman’s life.”

After hearing this, the eldest princess said angrily: "Nowadays, Daqi is poor and weak, and Bo Yue is already very busy with government affairs every day. These courtiers do not focus on sharing the sorrow for the king, but they actually pay attention to the harem."

If you wait for trivial matters, you should be scolded."

Emperor Ming realized: "As an emperor, the prosperity of his descendants is also the foundation of the country. Bo Yue only has one queen, which will inevitably make the officials worried."

Mentioning this issue, the eldest princess rolled her eyes at Emperor Ming and snorted coldly: "When you were the emperor, your harem was full, but your descendants were not so prosperous."

After being exposed by the eldest princess, Emperor Ming immediately became decadent. He couldn't help but think of his children who either died young or had no good results. Emperor Ming sighed and murmured: "In this life, can I?"

There are too many people living there, hey! Right now, only Qingyuan worries me the most. If I can see her find a safe home in my lifetime, I will die in peace."

Seeing that her younger brother was sad, the eldest princess was worried that he would be worried about his health, so she quickly changed the topic and said: "Since Bo Yue took charge of politics, he has established a good reputation in a short period of time, and he has established a good reputation. But this is the most embarrassing thing.

Something that makes people happy.”

Mentioning this, Emperor Ming also showed a hint of relief on his face: "Bo Yue is indeed capable. I have never made any achievements for the Zhao family in my life. I am also relieved that Boyue can make up for my regrets."

With that said, Emperor Ming discussed with the eldest princess: "Eldest sister, if I ask Boyue to give Qingyuan a safe marriage, can he agree?"

Even Emperor Ming was afraid of Li Ling Lengsu's son.

The eldest princess replied: "Boyo is not a stingy person. I will tell him personally about this matter after a while. Don't worry, he won't just sit idly by and ignore it."

The two siblings were talking about Qingyuan's marriage here. Li Dequan entered and said to the eldest princess: "Your Highness, the eldest princess, the queen has invited you to come over."

When the eldest princess heard this, she said goodbye to Emperor Ming and left the hall with Li Dequan.

Li Dequan then told the truth: "Your Highness, the eldest princess, something bad has happened. The eighth princess, Qingyuan, fell from the terrace and unfortunately passed away."

Hearing this, the eldest princess subconsciously glanced at the inner hall and hurriedly asked: "Don't let my brother know about this."

Emperor Ming's injury has not yet healed, and his health has just improved recently. He has always doted on Qingyuan. If he knew this bad news, he would be sad.

Li Dequan replied: "I was worried that the Supreme Emperor would not be able to bear it if he found out, so I lied and invited you out."

The eldest princess frowned and said, "This child has always been in poor spirits, but with so many palace people taking care of him, how could he fall off the terrace?"

Li Dequan sighed and told the eldest princess the whole story.

The eldest princess was shocked when she heard this: "This child Qingluan is so vicious!"

In the Jiaofang Palace, Li Ling and Jing Shu were also upset about this matter. Although Qingyuan was a little arrogant and willful, she had never done anything harmful to nature. She was the princess of the previous dynasty, but she was brutally killed by Qingluan.

When Li Ling learned about this, Lei Lei was furious.

When the eldest princess came to Jiaofang Hall, she asked Li Lingdao: "How do you plan to deal with this matter?"

Li Ling sighed heavily and replied: "According to the national law, Qingluan should be sentenced to death."

The eldest princess hurriedly said: "After all, she is your biological sister and the lifeblood of the old lady. If this is the case, how can the old lady bear it?"

Jing Shu also tried to persuade her: "Although Qingluan has committed a heinous crime, please husband, please spare her life for the sake of the government."

Li Ling had a gloomy face and was silent for a long time before replying leisurely: "Just as mother and Shu'er wanted to spare Qingluan this time, all we can do to the public is say that Qingyuan fell ill and fell while the palace people were not paying attention.

Terrace.”

As he spoke, Li Ling slapped the table angrily and said: "But Qingluan is so vicious that I cannot allow her to stay in the palace. I will order her to move to the princess's mansion on a certain day. When my grandmother chooses a person for her, I will

Then he issued an edict to let her come out."

The eldest princess nodded and said: "That's fine. It's just that your father is not in good health right now. It's better to hide this from her for now. I'll tell him slowly after a while."

When Li Ling heard this, he was speechless.

The eldest princess knew that he was resentful towards Emperor Ming, so she said to the gentle Jing Shu: "Shu'er, your father is old now and very lonely. If you have time, you can take the children to visit him more often."
