NO stability was guaranteed m any dynasty, especially wnen tnere was no leader.
The imperial court, which had begun to calm down, began to stir again. There were always some restless court officials who wanted to do something. They were ambitious but cowardly. Now that a perfect opportunity had presented itself, how could they not seize it.
Shen Miao asked Eunuch Deng, “Is the court very unstable now?”
Eunuch Deng said, “That’s right. Now, the officials want to recommend someone to supervise the imperial court for the time being until Prince Rui returns to Long Ye.”
“How outrageous!” Shen Miao flared up. “They really want to steal the country!”
Eunuch Deng fell silent.
For some reason, he felt that this young Princess Consort Rui had an indescribable aura. This aura was very similar to Empress Xiande, but it was sharper. She usually looked gentle and easy to talk to and was not nosy. Once she pulled a long face, she always made people feel afraid.
Just like Prince Rui, Xie Jingxing.
However, before Emperor Yong Le passed away, he also instructed Eunuch Deng to help Xie Jingxing when he returned. Eunuch Deng had been living in the palace since he was young and could help with many things. Now that Xie Jingxing was not back yet, Eunuch Deng naturally had to listen to Shen Miao.
“Eunuch Deng, get ready. I’ll go to the court,” she said.
Eunuch Deng was stunned and said, “Princess Consort…”
“If news that the imperial court is in chaos spreads at this critical moment, people in Long Ye will inevitably panic. We have to keep these restless people in check first.”
“But.” Eunuch Deng looked at Shen Miao’s stomach and said, “You’re still pregnant. ”
“It’s precisely because of this child that I can confront them openly.” Shen Miao smiled. “My child has the royal bloodline. They won’t dare to be disrespectful to me”
Eunuch Deng thought for a moment and said, “This can indeed keep the situation stable for the time being, but this way, Princess Consort, your pregnancy will be made public.”
“I originally wanted to hide it because I didn’t want His Highness to be distracted on the battlefield. Now that the war is almost over, there’s no need to hide it.” She looked at Eunuch Deng, who was still frowning, and smiled.
“You’re afraid that someone will harm me, right?”
Eunuch Deng quickly rolled up his sleeves. “I will definitely protect you and the young heir with my life!”
Shen Miao nodded. “Thank you.’
After Eunuch Deng left, Shen Miao took a deep breath. She sat on the chair and looked at the fallen leaves outside the window.
Empress Xiande left too abruptly, and many problems were starting to emerge. The palace was huge and lively in spring, but at this moment, it was cold and cheerless. However, she knew that this matter was far from over. Before Xie Jingxing returned, she had to pacify this chaotic imperial court.
“Ever since I have you in my stomach, I haven’t had an easy time yet.” Shen Miao said softly to her stomach, “However, everything will be fine.”
Five days later, the imperial court was in an uproar when the edict to pass down the throne was announced. Before Emperor Yong Le left, he arranged everything appropriately.
Some troublemakers said that the imperial court was leaderless now and suggested nominating a few officials to govern it together. However, this suggestion was rejected, because Princess Consort Rui, Shen Miao, took over the imperial court..
