After becoming a concubine, she lived a miserable life every day.

Chapter 235 Concubine Chen and Prince Chen

Qiao Rongjin seemed unaware of the gazes of the crowd and stood calmly with a dignified expression.

"I have just ascended the throne and inherited the throne. I shall respond to the will of heaven and bring peace to the people. The order of the harem must be established. Qiao Rongjin is gentle and graceful... Now I am grateful for her virtue and kindness, and I have specially conferred her the title of Noble Consort Chen, a position of the highest rank. I hope that Noble Consort Chen will be respectful and kind, and set an example for the harem... I decree this."

When this imperial decree was issued, the whole audience was in uproar.

Everyone looked at the Emperor Chengming in disbelief, while the Empress and Concubine Chen were even more shocked.

The most shocked person was Qiao Rongjin. She was of course aware of the meaning of the word "Chen". At this moment, she could not help but look up at the new emperor in surprise. However, she was looking at the new emperor and the new emperor was also looking at her. Although they were far apart, Qiao Rongjin still felt that gaze that could not be ignored. Qiao Rongjin felt that the gaze was really scorching and subconsciously avoided it, looking elsewhere.

Seeing this, Qi Heng's lips curled slightly and he was in a good mood.

Originally, he wanted to confer the title of Imperial Noble Consort on her, but considering many factors and his mother's advice, he did not do so. So after thinking about it, he bestowed this unique title on her. With this title, she is no worse than the Imperial Noble Consort, and there will be plenty of opportunities to confer her titles in the future.

Wang Fuyang on the side was not surprised at all. This was the only person his master cared about the most. The degree of his care for her was something he had never seen before when he was with his master. Most of the others were only favored superficially.

"Chen?" The Queen said silently, and then in the next second she made an expression that looked like she was half crying and half laughing.

It turns out that after all these twists and turns, only Qiao has entered his heart? !

So, that Madam Xian is not as good as Madam Qiao?

"Hehe..." The Queen's eyes turned cold in an instant, and the look she gave Qiao Rongjin beside her was enough to freeze someone to death.

At this moment, she firmly believed that Qiao Rongjin would be her lifelong enemy.

Concubine Chen was so angry at this moment that her teeth itched. So, in the end, even though he knew Qiao's true face and that Qiao was not as kind as he thought, Qi Heng still loved her the most, right? ? Chen suppressed the cruelty in her heart. She was still unaware of the blood on her palms. She stared at Qiao Rongjin with an extremely cold gaze.

Madam Wu moved sideways to block Chen's gaze and sighed in her heart, but she also knew that with her master's status, she would be envied no matter what, so this was inevitable. She would have to be more careful with her words and actions in the palace in the future.

The ministers all knew the importance of the word "Chen". Throughout the dynasties, the concubines who were given the title of "Chen" were all favored throughout their lives and had the last laugh. Even in the hearts of people all over the world, the concubines with the title of "Chen" were called the evil concubines who brought disaster to the country. It was no surprise that they were the most beloved people in the emperor's life.

In addition, this Imperial Concubine Chen has such an intelligent son, so her future is limitless.

The ministers' eyes suddenly changed when they looked at Qiao Yunshan. This general was the most proud person today except for the Minister of Personnel.

The Minister of Personnel standing by was gritting his teeth, he really didn't expect that the new emperor would give this title to Qiao. He thought that she would be a noble concubine at most, after all, there were many noble concubines in all dynasties. However, he gave her the title of Chen, which was telling the world and all the civil and military officials in the court that this was the apple of his eye, someone who should not be neglected. This undisguised preference was clear to everyone present.

At this time, the Minister of Personnel hoped that the new emperor was a truly playboy, so that his daughter's position as empress and his grandson's position as crown prince would be extremely stable.

Qiao Yunshan felt the gazes from all around him, and although he appeared calm on the surface, he was no less shocked than anyone else in his heart.

However, no matter what, he was very happy that his daughter became the Imperial Concubine. There was another person at the scene who was as happy as him, and that was Qiao Heyan. Thinking that his sister had become the Imperial Concubine Chen, Qiao Heyan was very happy for her. Naturally, the higher the status in the palace, the fewer constraints one would have, so he was also happy for his sister at this moment.

Just when everyone thought that the next step would be to reward the ministers who followed the new emperor, everyone was shocked once again. This shock was even greater than when Qiao Rongjin was conferred the title of Consort Chen, because this was an imperial edict to confer a title on a prince, and the protagonist of the edict was actually the little boy named Fifth Young Master. Oh no, he should be called the Fifth Prince now.

"…Although the Fifth Prince Qi You is still young, he is intelligent and kind-hearted…I hereby appoint the Fifth Prince Qi You as the Prince of Chen, grant him the fief of Guangling Prefecture, and let him enjoy the salary of a prince. I hope that he will cultivate himself and study hard in the future, and when he grows up, he can become a pillar of the country…I decree this."

When this imperial edict came out, the whole audience was shocked again.

Prince Chen!? Guangling Prefecture!?

They knew every word, but when they were added together, why was it so unbelievable! ?

Everyone present was aware of the value of these words. At this moment, many ministers were already thinking rapidly about them.

It is necessary to make friends with the Minister of Revenue Qiao Yunshan. Not to mention anything else, whoever becomes the Princess of Prince Chen or the daughter-in-law of Concubine Chen in the future will really be in luck. After all, many well-informed families know that Concubine Chen has a good temper and does not seem like someone who would treat her daughter-in-law harshly. The most important thing is that Prince Chen has a bright future. Even if he is not the crown prince and does not ascend the throne in the end, he is still an excellent candidate for marriage.

Qiao Rongjin couldn't remain calm anymore. So, his young son had already been crowned king! ?

At this moment, Qiao Yunshan and Qiao Heyan lowered their heads and smiled with their teeth showing.

The eldest grandson|nephew was crowned king! And it was the title of Chen, and the fiefdom was actually a place as wealthy as Guangling Prefecture. This good news made the two of them very excited. It was the first time they saw the new emperor so pleasing to the eye, and they had already started to scream like groundhogs in their hearts.

Both of them were secretly muttering in their hearts that they would never scold the new emperor in private again. Well, after all, the new emperor was really good to his daughter | younger sister and eldest grandson | nephew, which made them feel embarrassed. In the future, he could pamper whoever he wanted. As long as his daughter and grandson had everything they deserved, they would be satisfied.

The look the Queen gave Qiao Rongjin could no longer be described as icy cold; she even had an urge to get rid of him as soon as possible, but in the end her reason suppressed the urge and she forced herself to endure it.

Qiao cannot be touched! The queen knew better than anyone that if Qiao was really gone in her hands, she had a premonition that His Majesty would not let her go, and even her son, the crown prince, would be implicated.

Therefore, she could only endure and see whether the mother and son would reveal any clues later. If they really coveted that position, then she would get rid of them even at the risk of her life. If not, then she would be sensible!

However, thinking of the titles given to mother and son, the queen still felt a severe heart attack. The joy of having just become queen and her son becoming crown prince had been washed away.

It was then explained that the enthronement ceremony for the empress and others could only be held after the funeral of Emperor Jingyuan.

Next, the ministers who followed the new emperor were rewarded according to their merits, and everyone was very excited.
