“Emperor, don’t say that. It’s her honor to die because she saved you. I just…
“It’s just that…” When Grand Scholar Sun finished speaking, he directly burst into tears in the hall.
There was heartache and regret for his daughter, as well as gratitude for the Emperor.
To be honest, their daughter was gone, and even if the Emperor got a new Empress the next day, they couldn’t say anything.
He didn’t expect the Emperor to have thoughts of mourning for his daughter.
When the ministers saw this, they immediately shut their mouths. At the same time, after understanding the Emperor’s thoughts, they temporarily stopped their thoughts of pressuring the Emperor.
After the court session, the Emperor brought Grand Scholar Sun to the royal study. “Father-in-law, I invite you over as a son-in-law to discuss the Eldest Princess’ matter.”
“Please speak.” Grand Scholar Sun was stunned for a moment and nodded.
“The Eldest Princess is still young and cannot do without her mother’s guidance. However, Imperial Grandmother is getting on in years, and I don’t know how many more years she can look after her.
“Therefore, I wanted to put her under Wanning’s wings.
“First, Wanning and the Empress have always had a good relationship. Second, Wanning doesn’t have any bad intentions, and Gu Chengrui and his wife don’t have any ambitions.”
“Your majesty intends to make Consort Xian the Empress.” Grand Scholar Sun was stunned for a moment.
Otherwise, the Eldest Princess should be under the new Empress.
The Emperor nodded. “Other than the above reasons, there is also the consideration of the First Prince.
“My father and I have already suffered once as the eldest son born out of consorts. We don’t want to see our children and grandchildren suffer again.”
The Grand Scholar Sun raised his head and looked at him in surprise, and he agreed in his heart. No matter what family the eldest son of a concubine was in, he would be disliked by the mistress.
Moreover, in a royal family that inherited the throne.
Presumably, this was also one of the reasons why King Hui and the others struck first.
Although Gu Wanning’s personality was a little meek, it did not mean that the future Empress would be able to tolerate them, mother and son, so…
The most important point was that Gu Wanning’s side of the family was weak.
Gu Chengrui, who was the only one who had some potential, did not like the scheming in the royal court. However, with his own strength, coupled with his relationship with the Emperor and Zhou Huaiming, he could still protect Gu Wanning.
“I’ll listen to you. As long as the Eldest Princess lives happily, that’s fine.”
“Yes, she will still follow the Grand Empress Dowager for the time being. When the First Prince is older and can take care of himself, she will be brought back.”
“This minister thanks the emperor on behalf of the Eldest Princess.”
“You’re too polite. She’s also my daughter, my first child, and my eldest daughter. I definitely won’t mistreat her.”
The Grand Scholar Sun nodded and didn’t say anything else.
“Don’t tell anyone about the matter of the Empress title for the time being. We’ll talk about it after Miaoke’s anniversary next year.”
“I understand. If you have no other instructions, I will take my leave.”
“Sure. If you want to see the Eldest Princess, you can come over anytime.” The Emperor nodded.
“Yes.” The Grand Scholar Sun responded and retreated.
Raising his head to look at the blue sky, his heart also brightened up. As long as the Emperor remembered the Eldest Princess and was willing to plan her future well, everything was fine.
He returned home in a good mood. Mrs. Sun saw that he finally had a smile on his face and asked curiously, “Dear, what good thing happened? You actually smiled.”
After Grand Scholar Sun heard this, he told her about the Emperor’s plan to mourn for Sun Miaoke for a year. “Although our daughter is gone, it’s great that the Emperor still respects her.”
Of course, he did not mention anything about the Eldest Princess or the new Empress title conferment..
