Chapter 170 Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace 22
Mongolia wanted to marry a legitimate princess, but the only legitimate princesses now were Princess Hengti, born to the Queen Mother, and Princess Hejing, born to the Queen.

For a moment, the court and the harem became lively.

The ministers in the court were divided into two factions, one advocating the marriage of Princess Hengti and the other advocating the marriage of Princess Hejing.

The two sides each insisted on their own opinions and refused to give in to each other, and they quarreled in the court.

But in general, more ministers advocated that Princess Hejing get married, after all, Princess Hengchu, born to the Queen Mother, had already married Junggar.

Because of this marriage, the harem was also in turmoil.

The Empress and the Empress Dowager were competing openly and secretly. The Empress Dowager asked Concubine Qing and Concubine Shu to persuade the Emperor, but the Emperor drove them out.

Ling Xi was very surprised when she received the news that the Queen had summoned her.

She looked at Chunchan and asked in confusion, "What does the Queen want me to do?"

Chunchan shook her head: "I don't know, but Madam, the marriage is so popular now, I'm afraid the Queen is doing this."

Ling Xi nodded gently: "That's right, the Queen must have come to discuss this matter with me."

Although she didn't understand why the queen would look for her.

Logically speaking, she should go to the emperor for help with this kind of thing.

When they arrived at Changchun Palace, Ling Xi walked into the palace and found the queen sitting alone in the room. She looked lonely and exuded an air of loss. Even the bright golden sunlight coming in from the window could not warm her. She looked like an old person who was about to die.

Ling Xi's expression paused. The palace was like a cage that would assimilate people. Every lively woman who walked in would turn into a pile of dried bones.

The feng shui of the Forbidden City will nourish people but will certainly make them lose their beauty.

"Your servant pays respect to Her Majesty the Queen." Ling Xi bowed to Fu Cha Langya with full etiquette.

"There's no need to be so polite, Concubine Ling." Fu Cha Langya's voice was a little heavy, as if she had reached a dead end and had no way to go.

Fu Cha Langya slowly said, "Sister Ling Fei, I asked you to come here today because I want you to help me with something."

Her face was dark and pale, she didn't look well, she looked listless, and there was a hint of panic in her eyes.

Fu Cha Langya now has no other choice but to ask Concubine Ling for help. It is funny that she, a queen, asks for help from a concubine.

Hearing Fu Cha Langya's words, Ling Xi slightly widened her eyes, a little bit hard to believe. The Queen asked her for help? What help could she give? She couldn't say anything in front of the dog emperor.

Ling Xi said puzzledly: "What does the Queen mean by this? The Emperor and the Queen are husband and wife. Is there anything that I need to say?"

When Fucha Langya heard Ling Xi's answer, tears welled up in her eyes. After a while, she gritted her teeth and said, "The Khorchin tribe of Mongolia requested an alliance with the Qing Dynasty and asked to marry a legitimate princess. However, only Princess Hengti and Jingse are of the right age and status. When the Queen Mother heard the news, she recently ordered the court officials to strongly oppose Princess Hengti's marriage and request Jingse to marry Mongolia."

Fucha Langya couldn't help crying as she spoke, her heart aching, "But the Khorchin tribe is thousands of miles away from the capital. After marriage, Jingse and her husband will settle in Khorchin. How can my Jingse bear it?"

Although she values ​​legitimate sons more, Jingse is her daughter. How can she not feel sorry for her? In the past few generations of the Qing Dynasty, how many princesses who were married to Khorchin lived a good life? Many lost their lives at a young age. How could she bear to let Jingse suffer this? Fu Cha Langya pleaded, "Ling Fei, since you have served the emperor, although I have not shown you kindness, I have never made things difficult for you. I only ask you to help me this time, and I will definitely repay you in the future."

Ever since the news of the marriage came out, she has been restless, but there is nothing she can do.

The Fucha family only asked her to consider the family's honor and marry Jingse to them, without ever thinking about what would happen to Jingse.

As Jingse's mother, she is the only one who cares about Jingse.

Ling Xi had to admit that what the queen said made sense. Ling Xi did not hate the queen. Although she was not perfect, she had fulfilled her duties as a queen.

Ling Xi thought for a while, and then asked, "Are all the officials in the court against Princess Hengti's marriage?"

Ling Xi's question made Lang Ya stunned for a moment. She paused for a moment before nodding. It was indeed the case.

Ling Xi laughed and shook her head: "If that's the case, what are you still worried about? You were just confused for a moment."

Fu Cha Langya didn't react, "What do you mean?"

Ling Xi reminded: "If the ministers in the court are against Princess Hejing's marriage at this time, then the Queen should be anxious. By the way, those ministers are doing this because of the Queen Mother's order, right?"

After Ling Xi's reminder, Fu Cha Langya's eyes lit up and she was stunned: "What do you mean?"

Ling Xi smiled slightly: "Your Majesty, think about it. The Queen Mother's actions are equivalent to exposing her power in the court to the emperor. The emperor is wise and powerful, how could he be controlled by those petty ministers in the court?"

However, the four words "wise and brave" really go against my will.

"If all the officials in the court agree with you, then you should be anxious."

Fu Cha Langya showed a happy expression: "You are right, it is me who is confused."

Ling Xi snorted lightly, and said in a sarcastic tone: "The officials in the court don't care which princess is getting married. It's not their daughter anyway, so they won't feel heartbroken, right?"

Fu Cha Langya thought that Ling Xi now had a daughter, and she must have been thinking about what to do if her own daughter also had to marry in the future.

She said meaningfully: "You are right, how can they understand my feelings?"

Seeing Fu Cha Langya's face relax, Ling Xi poured cold water on her: "Don't be happy too soon, Queen. I think things will change. Now the court officials are on the side of the Queen Mother, but if the Queen Mother reacts and orders her officials to support Princess Hengti's marriage and oppose Princess Hejing's marriage, what will the Queen do then?"

Fu Cha Langya was so shocked by her words that she immediately felt her mind turn cold. She looked at Ling Xi expectantly, "Then do you have any ideas, Concubine Ling?"

Ling Xi no longer had any hope in Fu Cha Langya's brain. People who were involved in it could not see the situation clearly, let alone a mother.

"It's very simple," Ling Xi said with a stern look in his eyes, "If the Empress Dowager has changed her strategy, then you can ask Princess Hejing to go to the Emperor and ask for a marriage."

Fu Cha Langya's face changed and she was very emotional. "How can that be possible?"

Ling Xi said calmly, "Empress, the current situation is very clear. The Empress Dowager already has a daughter married to Junggar. Even for the sake of reputation, the Emperor will not allow Princess Hengti to marry again. Therefore, this time, the marriage will most likely fall on Princess Hejing."
