Fast Transmigration: Embarrassed

Chapter 89 The Stunning Prince’s Ugly Consort (35)

In June of the [-]th year of Qingfeng, Jinshang had reached the age of forty. His only legitimate son, the second prince Ji Liang, had just celebrated his birthday. Some of the courtiers petitioned Jinshang to appoint Ji Liang as the crown prince.

As we all know, the emperors before the Zhou Dynasty did not reign for very long.For the sake of the stability of the country, there were some voices in the court that hoped that the emperor would appoint a prince as soon as possible, but they were all rejected by the emperor on the spot.

Now that the second prince has come of age, several courtiers discussed and decided to take advantage of this opportunity to raise the issue of making Ji Liangce the prince as soon as possible in the morning court.

"His Majesty, the second prince is talented and intelligent, he is humble and generous. He has been famous for a long time, but now he is an adult. The ministers and others believe that the second prince, as the only direct prince, is justified in his name."

"Establishing the crown prince as soon as possible will also stabilize the court situation. This is all for the sake of the country and society of the Great Zhou."

"The empress is noble, generous, and fair. She manages the harem in an orderly manner. All the palace people are convinced by her. Under the empress's teaching, both the second prince and the sixth prince are famous for their talents, and they can be called a generation. Empress Xian..."

The emperor listened to the compliments of the empress and the second prince for an entire morning, but did not answer a single word.All the papers for requesting the establishment of the prince were pressed on the Longshu case by him without reply.

The emperor's reaction caused dissatisfaction among the ministers, and also caused many people to speculate about the holy will.

After discussing with several courtiers, they wanted to remonstrate with His Majesty again. This time, they vowed to "deathly remonstrate" so that His Majesty could make an imperial decree as soon as possible.However, before they could act, Empress Guo suddenly got a sudden illness and passed away.

For a time, all kinds of rumors were rampant, and the emperor didn't give any explanation for it, but relegated some of the most troublesome courtiers, and killed two speech officials who had "deadly advised" in the early court.

In this way, no one dared to mention the words of establishing the prince again, and this matter was postponed indefinitely.

In the 13th year of Qingfeng, Concubine Lu Shu, who favored the sixth palace, was canonized as Empress Lu. Before that, the entire harem was already under her control, and some officials even took orders from her.

At this time, the first prince changed from the second prince to the eldest prince, the second prince and the fourth prince.Soon some courtiers proposed to make the eldest prince the crown prince, but there was still no follow-up.

Until the 14th year of Qingfeng, the eldest son of the eldest prince Ji Jian was born. After the order of Empress Lu and the emperor's acquiescence, several ministers submitted the papers at the same time and proposed to make the eldest prince the crown prince.

The decree to appoint Ji Jian as the crown prince was conveyed the next day.

Ji An was only 11 years old that year, an age between a child and a teenager.Except for the concern of the second brother Ji Liang and the company of the third and fifth brothers, no one paid attention to the prince who lost his biological mother.

In the eyes of all the ministers, he is just a prince who is surprisingly beautiful and cute, but has no special skills, taciturn and unfavored.

But Xiao Ji'an was happy to be so stress-free.Apart from being naughty with a few brothers, he likes to sneak to an abandoned palace alone, which is a place he discovered by accident, and few people pass by.

In early summer, wild flowers bloom around the palace.There was also a big tree with luxuriant leaves. Ji An liked to climb that tree the most, smelling the refreshing fragrance of flowers, and fell asleep thoroughly and comfortably.

On this day, Ji An hid and slept on the big tree outside the palace as usual.However, when he was sleeping soundly, he suddenly heard the sound of martial arts training under the tree.

He couldn't help being curious, and quietly looked down through the gaps in the leaves.I saw the eldest brother, that is, the prince, waving a wooden stick, throwing it at the surrounding flowers and plants indiscriminately as if venting his anger.

When Queen Guo passed away, although Ji An was not very old, he was already sensible.He couldn't forget the day when Empress Guo was buried, the second brother Ji Liang cried hysterically.Occasionally, a trace of hatred can be read from the eyes of the second brother looking at his father, empress Lu and the prince.

No one told Xiao Ji'an what kind of illness that Queen Guo who treated him like his own mother had contracted.But cleverly, he guessed a trace of the truth from the reactions of others.

He didn't know how his weak self could help his second brother, but he tried his best to stay away from the emperor and empress Lu, and the prince.He would purposely try to make the second brother laugh, and in his heart he hated those who took away the second brother's smile.

Now seeing the prince's red eyes with anger, little Ji'an felt very comfortable.He decided to find fifth brother in a while, and let him take him out of the palace to find second brother.He wanted to describe to his second brother how this prince was irritable.

The second brother still seldom smiles now, but maybe he exaggerated the scene in front of him, for example, the prince is secretly crying, maybe the second brother just laughed?

The more Xiao Ji An thought about it, the happier he became, he forgot that Ji Jian was still below, and accidentally laughed out loud.

"Who's there? Come out!" Before Ji Jian finished speaking, he jumped up and swiped the wooden stick towards Ji An's current position.

Ji An was frightened and instinctively ducked aside. The stick dodged but fell from the tree.

"boom!"

"Ouch!"

Little Ji'an didn't know any kung fu except climbing trees, and this fell him sorely.

"Sixth, why is it you?" Ji Jian looked at Ji An who was lying on the ground in pain, feeling quite surprised.

"What's wrong with me?"

Ji An finally regained his strength, slapped Ji Jian's outstretched hand away, and said bitterly: "You don't need to pretend to be kind."

Ji Jian knew that Ji An and Ji Liang had the closest relationship, so he was not annoyed by his reaction.To be honest, he still likes this sixth younger brother who grows more beautiful.

In this palace, regardless of whether the prince or princess was born, under the repeated and deliberate indoctrination of their birth mother, they have all kinds of small thoughts, but they have similar faces.

Over the years, he has had enough of the "teaching" of Empress Lu to himself, and he has also seen enough of the "true feelings" of his brothers and sisters who are different from each other.Even his younger brother, who has the same father and mother, is usually hypocritical.

Only this sixth brother, who was unbelievably beautiful since he was a child, is also innocent and innocent, straightforward, likes and dislikes are all on his face, and he still retains the heart of a child.

"Dongdong, I remember your baby name is this?" Ji Jian threw the stick and looked at Ji An with a smile, "Can you stop hating me so much?"

Xiao Ji'an stood up and curled his lips: "Daydreaming!"

A half-grown child who is not as high as his chest, acting like this, made Ji Jian laugh so hard that he forgot the anger and unwillingness before he came.

Such a beautiful and funny little person, it would be nice to see him more often.

This idea flashed in Ji Jian's mind, and he soon had an idea.

"Dongdong, let's make a bet?" he said.
