Queen of the Lin family in the Red Chamber

The seven or eight children in the study room instantly huddled together. The little eunuch guarding the door was stunned for a moment, and immediately came up to pull people, just joking, those are princes and grandchildren, something happened, let alone an errand, and their lives would be lost. I can drop it!

But the little eunuch, Laguila, still didn’t dare to use too much force. In short, these few are very precious, and the little eunuchs burst into tears, “Masters, stop beating, let the Long Live Lord see it! Not a good thing."

At this moment, Kant yelled, "Run, Kang Yang, run!"

This scream startled many people, and the movement of their hands stopped for a few seconds.I saw a small child jumping out of the crowd, it was Kang Yang, the concubine son of the abolished prince, his clothes had been ripped out of shape, his hair was loose a lot, there were a few fingerprints on his face, Also scratched the skin.He came out from the crowd, turned his head and glared at the person who had just beaten the two brothers, his eyes were red, as if he was about to cry.

"Father! Father!" Kang Yang yelled to abolish the prince, and ran away in tears.

Where is the upper study, on the east side of the Qianqing Gate.As for the Qianqing Gate, it was basically the place where the emperor used to deal with government affairs. The west side that is symmetrical to the study is the South Study.The day's plan lies in the morning, this time is not only the time when the princes study hard, but also the time when the emperor is in the early court.So Kang Yang's sad and tearful father, civil and military officials, including the emperor above the main hall, all heard it.

"Father, if you don't come out, my brother will be beaten to death!" Kang Yang first called his father and rushed in, but then he seemed to have just realized it, and ran outside the Qianqing Gate.Two palaces to the east of Qianqing Gate are the Yuqing Palace where the abolished prince was closed. It is very close, not even 100 meters away.

Everyone was stunned by the accident, and the emperor's face sank, "What's going on! Who is making noise outside!" The old emperor had many sons, and even more grandsons, and Kang Yang was not very favored by the emperor's grandson. Coupled with the abolition of the prince, the old emperor hadn't seen him for a long time, so he couldn't even distinguish his voice.But they were all in the same courtyard, Kang Yang's voice was loud and clear, and the emperor's 60-year-old man could hear it clearly, and he didn't dare to look into the small eyes of his highness and ministers even if he wanted to whitewash it.

When it comes to judging people in the palace, most of them rely on clothes and standing. People of any grade can wear what clothes and stand where they stand. Even if the old emperor's grandchildren are standing in front of him, he can't just rely on To recognize people by face, not to mention that now only the voice can be heard.So the emperor is at a loss now, but he also knows that he went to the study to make trouble, and there are only children in that place.

The eunuchs serving in the palace hurriedly went to inquire about the news, just a short time was enough for Kang Yang to run to the gate of Yuqing Palace.

There are four guards guarding the gate of Yuqing Palace, the kind with knives.

Kang Yang hesitated a little at first, and immediately rushed towards the gate of Yuqing Palace as if he hadn't seen the half-unsheathed blade.The door was slammed down, and then Kang Yang cried out more mournfully: "Father, come out and see your son! My brother is about to be beaten to death by the eighth uncle! Father, come out!"

The guards were a bit embarrassed, they were sent in front of Yuqing Palace to guard the deposed prince, it was not a good job, but it was also a leisurely job.The main task of this errand is to prevent the waste prince from contacting others. This is very simple, because the palace gate is locked, the waste prince cannot come out, and sensible adults will not take advantage of this time to talk to the waste prince. In short, just stand here as a pillar.

But the leader didn't say what to do if you encounter a minor!This one sounds like the son of the abolished crown prince, the serious grandson of the emperor, and... it sounds like he was wronged and came to find his father to help him out.

Most of the guards in the palace are from a certain second generation, and they encountered many such things when they were young. Looking at the crying children at the door, it's rare to feel soft-hearted.This child, who looked like he was no more than ten years old at most, was obviously not the one the superiors told him to focus on guarding against.

So a guard who looked at about [-] put away the knife, stepped forward and gently persuaded: "Stop your tears, I must..." To be honest, the title of the abolished prince is now a problem. No other title was given to him, so most people used "that one" instead, but that's not the way to call a child about his real father. "Your father will feel bad too."

This is the truth, this guard has a son who is about the same age as Kang Yang, not to mention that his son bumped into each other, his heart softened when he pouted.

Kang Yang glanced at him, and knocked harder on the door, "Father, come out!"

Above the main hall, the eunuch who inquired about the news came back, leaned into the emperor's ear, and whispered: "It is said that the two of the eldest prince's family disrespected the eighth prince, and threw books, pens and ink on it, and then the fight started." The inclination is very obvious. This eunuch belongs to the Concubine Yu faction, at least it is also a hostile force of the princeling party.

The emperor didn't hear the eunuch's inductive words for the time being, and his attention was all focused on the word "Eldest Prince". Who is the eldest prince?

It's really sad, the eldest prince is his eldest son, Rui Yong who has been called the prince for almost 40 years.The title of First Prince is a title that only belongs to Rui Yong, but it has never been used.

The emperor sighed, stood up, "I'll go and have a look." Only he can control the fight between the prince and grandson.

The first place to go is the study room, and several children who were fighting have been pulled away.The emperor looked at a row of disheveled princes and grandchildren, and said angrily: "I have read all the books of sages for nothing! Kneel here and reflect!"

The next thing to go is Yuqing Palace, this is the first time the emperor has come to Yuqing Palace since that incident, even when he went to the Fengxian Hall next to Yuqing Palace to offer sacrifices, he took a long way around.

The voice of Kang Yang, who was knocking on the door of Yuqing Palace, had already lowered, and the sound of knocking on the door was not so loud anymore. "Father, they all bully us. Last time we tore up our books, the master didn't believe it, and hit our palms with a ruler." Kang Yang stopped sobbing twice, and wiped the swollen skin with his half-wet sleeves. Walnut orbitals. "Later, my hands became swollen and I couldn't write. The Taifu said we didn't study hard and fined us to copy books."

"They even threw the books on the ground for us to pick them up. If my brother hadn't protected me...I would have, long ago..." Kang Yang burst into tears, "Father, I don't want to study anymore, Father, I'll go in to accompany you OK!"

Not to mention how shocked the emperor behind Kang Yang was, the anger rising in his chest almost burned himself to ashes.As for the abandoned prince inside the door, his eyes were about to drop from shock. As for his two bastards, he really didn't take it seriously. He didn't have much contact with him except to ask for peace on weekdays. How could there be such a With deep feelings, the abolished prince couldn't help but also wiped away his tears.

The abolished prince has six sons in total. Except for his son, Kang He, he really didn’t bother with the other children, and he didn’t have the time to bother. To deal with government affairs, the emperor had to supervise the country, and then he had to deal with his younger brother who had malicious intentions, and there were a bunch of charming concubines in his yard.Even if Kang Yang was born to his favorite side concubine, he was basically thrown to the crown princess. Before the age of six, he was taken care of by the eunuchs and maids. After the age of six, the proportion of eunuchs increased, and he was thrown to study in the upper study.Royal children follow such a process.

Therefore, after hearing Kang Yang's sincere words, the waste prince was stunned, not knowing how to answer.Fortunately, he didn't answer, because his father's voice sounded outside the door. The emperor spent the most time with the deposed prince, and the emperor was the one who had been studied most thoroughly by the deposed prince, so the deposed prince clearly heard it. The suppressed anger in his father's voice.

"Who bullied you?" The emperor slowly walked into the gate of Yuqing Palace, his voice getting closer, "Teacher? Ruile? Who else?"

The emperor also went to the study in his early years, and he was very clear about the little tricks of going to the study, standing in line, and several major forces, all these years have not changed at all.

And regarding the fact that Kant and Kang Yang were angry in the upper study, the person who answered back then didn't say so.The emperor used the word "shouqi" in his heart, subconsciously siding with his eldest prince.

The eunuch who answered back at the beginning said that Kangde and Kangyang disturbed the order of the classroom, and led the emperor to lead the two people to the road where they were spoiled by the deposed prince. Disciplining them is the end of the matter, and now it seems that the prince's son has been wronged and he has a share.

The emperor walked forward. When Kang Yang saw him, his eyes flickered, and he called out to the emperor's grandfather in a low voice and turned his head away again.His hand that knocked on the door was already swollen and swollen, and his strength was much weaker. He also seemed to lose his strength when speaking, and he only called out "Father" a few times between sobbing.

The emperor sighed, somehow remembered the phrase "sons and daughters are debts", and said, "Go and take him down, Imperial Physician Xuan comes to the study, let's take a look with them both."

Unexpectedly, this sentence gave Kang Yang, who had already used up most of his strength, a new motivation. He clasped the door knocker of Yuqing Palace tightly with both hands, and would not let go, "I will be beaten to death by them one day when I go back! Father!" , save your son!" Kang Yang began to howl, "I want to see my father, I want to see my father."

The melee in the study room had already made Kang Yang look very embarrassed. He tore his clothes a lot while running all the way, his hands were slapped so red and swollen, and there seemed to be blood oozing from the cracks between his fingers .

The guards who received the emperor's order did not dare to use force, and the scene became stalemate. Several guards hugged Kang Yang's waist and legs, but Kang Yang still held the door knocker with both hands, and refused to let go.

The emperor sighed, and said, "Open the door for a stick of incense!" After speaking, he turned and went to the study.

The emperor was not ready to meet the abolished prince, or he was not ready to meet the abolished prince in front of so many people, so he turned around and went to the study room, leaving time for another father and son.

Returning from the entrance of Yuqing Palace to the upper study, the emperor walked a bit slowly and thought a lot.

His eldest son is a bit domineering. In the past few decades, he has bullied his younger brother, his courtiers, and his nephew.

The second prince was whipped by him, the third prince was hit on the head with a cup, the treatment of the fourth and fifth princes was not too different, the sixth prince was less bullied because of his frailty, and the seventh and eighth princes, although they were not there They studied together, but it didn't get any better. The seventh prince was locked in a small black room, and the eighth prince was punished to kneel.

At that time, the emperor was always on the prince's side, helping the prince to get over his face, but secretly reprimanding him with half-truths and half-false words.

In the end, the crown prince was his favorite son, the only son.

But now...

Sitting in the upper study room, the emperor looked at the group of children kneeling in front of him. It was obvious that Kant was isolated. When the eighth prince Ruile saw him, his face was filled with joy and his eyes sparkled with anticipation.

"That's how you study!" the emperor said angrily.

With a plop, the grand tutor who came over after hearing the news knelt on the ground, and the emperor became even more angry when he saw him, "Dismissed! Give me a [-]-year-old blow and throw me out of the palace!"

After dealing with the Taifu, the emperor scanned the children kneeling in front of him again.Kant's injury was the worst, his face was scratched and the corner of his mouth was swollen.As for Ruile, it's just that her hair is loose and her clothes are torn.

"You can do such a heavy hand! This is your nephew!" the emperor roared.

After hearing his words, Kant shook suddenly, opened his mouth to spit out blood, and there was still a tooth inside.

The emperor suddenly felt bad, "The imperial physician! Where did the imperial physician die!"

Looking back at Yuqing Palace, the time for a stick of incense is fleeting, and the gate is closed again. The deposed prince tightly holds a small bottle that Kang Yang stuffed in his hand just now, and what comes to mind is Kang Yang's presence in his hand. Whispering in the ear, "The emperor's grandmother will call in two days."

The waste prince looked at the tightly closed door, with unpredictable expressions on his face, just like his mood at this moment.

The imperial hospital also had shifts in the palace, but after a while, two imperial physicians went to the upper study room, and followed the emperor's instructions to first show it to Kant and Kang Yang who was brought back from Yuqing Palace.

"Return to Your Majesty, the emperor's grandson is fine. He is already in the period of changing his teeth, and this one is still a deciduous tooth. There are a few bruises on his body. I will take two prescriptions for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis. After a few days of cultivation, I will get better. "

Primary teeth?The emperor was a little worried, but...it took a lot of strength to knock out the tooth.The emperor glanced coldly, and said: "Send Kant and Kang Yang to the Queen's Palace to recuperate. As for you guys..." The emperor paused, "Penalty, confinement for three months. Ruile will add another one." Beat the board!"

The emperor flicked his sleeves and turned back to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

But before he could calm down, he heard the little eunuch report back, "The empress asks to see you."

What is she here for?
