cannon fodder life

However, the eldest prince who was the center of the incident stepped forward to congratulate him with a calm face. The queen thought to herself that this was her own, and she couldn't get angry with him in front of so many ministers. The one in front of her was her own, so she had to save him some face.

"You have a heart. Take your seat quickly!" Don't stand outside and let others see the royal joke. "It's the queen mother. This birthday gift was chosen by Ruan Ruan and Erchen together, and we all contributed."

The queen can't answer the conversation now. Who is Ruan Ruan? It's the concubine brought by this Nizi. The emperor can't stand it anymore: "Sit down when you come. There are still many people who want to celebrate their birthdays."

If this person was not his first prince, not the eldest son, he would have sent him away with a fief early on, out of sight and out of mind. In recent years, every time he saw this prince, he would feel blocked in his heart.

The eldest prince didn't hear the dislike in the words of the emperor and queen, and returned to his seat very happily, but after he got to the seat, how to do it became a problem again. The number of people attending the banquet was fixed, and the seats were also fixed. Three seats, but he brought five people.

The most deadly thing was that he didn't say hello in advance. If the First Prince had said something to anyone in advance, no one would ask him to do such a thing.Ershan watched this scene from the side, and for a moment admired the brain circuit of the eldest prince.

The eunuch next to the emperor saw this scene, and directly added two more seats, but the table was less than one meter in size, and it was more than enough for three people to sit. Confused here, Mrs. Xie directly led Ershan to sit in the most upright position.She is the main wife, and her son is the son-in-law. Sitting here is nothing more than a normal thing, and she deserves it.

Madam Qi had a different look from Mrs. Xie. Mrs. Qi was a little aggrieved when she saw it at first, but then she suddenly became happy when she thought of what Mrs. Xie would encounter today.

Mrs. Xie witnessed this scene with her own eyes, her eyes turned cold, and she laughed, let's see who can have the last laugh. The queen and everyone else were all seated, and then they began to look at the gifts one by one.

The empress has only one son, the eldest prince. Even though the elder prince is a bit hard to describe, the empress was the first to open the gift that the elder prince gave him. Seeing that the gift was a picture of a hundred years of life, the empress smiled more on her face.It's just that when she took the picture away and saw a complete piece of musk inside, the queen's face became less pretty.

At this time, the emperor didn't care about the eldest prince's face anymore, he just raised his hand and threw out all the things on the table: "Please explain to me why there is musk in the birthday gift, you are sincerely trying to harm you Queen Mother?"

Whether it is framing the mother or the queen, the eldest prince will definitely not be able to bear such a crime. Looking at the falling musk, the eldest prince can only kneel on the ground and shout: "Father, my son is innocent, and my son is innocent!" Framed."

When the father knelt down, Ershan, Mrs. Xie and Mrs. Qi who followed came out and knelt down. The queen looked at the people in the circle, and her head, which was about to heal just now, felt even more painful in an instant.

"The thing was sent by you, what face do you have to say you are innocent. What about the imperial physician, the imperial physician." Even if the emperor knew how unreliable the eldest prince was, he did not expect him to do such a thing.

Compared with the emperor, the queen who is the direct victim is much more rational. This incident clearly means that the house in the eldest prince's backyard is restless. No matter who she deals with or not, there will be a vested interest. The queen looked at the two people in front of her with a headache stand up.Musk was placed in such an obvious position, the person who did it was not to harm her, but to use her hand to get rid of one. Looking at the two saviors of her son in front of her, the queen was also a little entangled for a while, no matter who to deal with, Her mentally handicapped son doesn't even do it!

The emperor didn't have so many worries. On the one hand, he asked the imperial doctor to look at the queen's stomach, and on the other hand, he directly sent Dali Temple in Kaifeng Prefecture to cooperate in the trial.The other ministers present had no choice but to watch the scene, and each of them remained silent.

The people of Dali Temple first found out that the mastermind behind the scenes was pointing to Mrs. Xie, and then looked carefully, it was actually Madam Qi who did it. The people of Dali Temple mobilized together and investigated for a day and two nights before finding out the truth.

The emperor looked at the evidence pointing to Mrs. Qi, and Long Yan was furious: "I gave birth to you to spoil my concubine and kill my wife. Come, someone, drag this man out of the Meridian Gate, and behead him for public display."

"Father, please don't do it, Ruan Ruan definitely didn't do it on purpose, she definitely didn't do it, she doesn't even understand musk, how could she do such a thing?" The eldest prince begged with his eyes closed, The first prince can do this without even looking at the evidence on the table, but the emperor is not someone else, so he won't accept his tricks.

"Your Majesty, at first the evidence pointed to the imperial concubine, and then it turned to Madam Qi halfway through." Dali Temple's judge said, in other words, she was the concubine's wife in the eldest prince's mansion.

One is deliberately framed, the other I know everything but I just don't say it, I'm waiting for you to play yourself to death.When the queen heard the news, she no longer knew what to think of Mrs. Xie. Mrs. Xie was her daughter-in-law chosen by herself.

Mrs. Xie completely acquiesced to this statement. She didn't buy the musk, and she didn't give the cloth herself. She also gave birth to the eldest grandson for the royal family, and she belongs to the same clan as the queen. She has nothing to worry about, but this time Madam Qi couldn't keep it anymore.

After being reminded by the little eunuch, the eldest prince found out the truth belatedly, and then looked at Madam Qi in shock. He already knew that Mrs. Xie was a poisonous woman, but he did not expect that Madam Qi was also a poisonous spider.

The eldest prince's shock hadn't passed yet, and the emperor ordered again: "What are you doing in a daze, take him down."

Only then did the eldest prince realize that his father really wanted to kill Madam Qi, so he put his arms around Madam Qi, "Father, Ruan Ruan doesn't feel safe doing this, she has her own reasons, let alone if she really It's more tricky to hide the musk powder in it, so it's not easy to be found. She put such a big piece, but she didn't want to really hurt the empress! Are you right, the empress?"

The empress laughed at his logic: "You mean I have to thank her for putting a big piece of musk." The empress turned to the emperor and said, "It's not easy to see blood on this day of great joy. The Qi family belongs to the eldest prince. People, let him handle it."

The emperor had never liked the fight in the backyard before, Madam Qi should have died here today, but after hearing what the queen said, the emperor was also a little shaken: "The people in your house, take them back and take care of them yourself."

The eldest prince was so excited that he knelt down and kowtowed. Unexpectedly, the emperor's next sentence sent him into the abyss, "The emperor is not young this year. The four seasons in the south of the Yangtze River are like spring, and Cangzhou is rich. It's a rare and good place, you go back and have a rest, and then set off the day after tomorrow!" The emperor said this without blinking his eyes.

If you have a fief representative, you want to be crowned king, and if you are crowned king, you will stay in the fief forever, and you cannot enter Beijing without a summons. Was divided out.

Among all the brothers, the eldest prince was the first one to have a fief, but he couldn't be happy at all: "Mother, I don't want to leave the capital, I don't want to leave you and my father."

The queen touched the baby who was already moving in her stomach, and thinking of the eldest prince's unreliable attitude, it was obvious that the sooner the better, "Remember to come back often in the future." The queen said, with his concubine They don't seem to be divided, so what's going on?

The emperor said that the Ministry of Internal Affairs immediately seized the time to deal with it. The next day, the first prince's luggage was prepared, and the title was also fixed. King An and Ershan were named Prince An's son.Ershan looked at the address and thought unreliably, does the emperor mean to let the eldest prince keep his own place?

The Eldest Prince was about to leave, and Mrs. Xie was going to follow. Although Mrs. Qi was let go, the Emperor was worried about what the Eldest Prince would do in the fief. It is Cangzhou.

Mrs. Qi is completely over after this incident. Even if Ershan and Xie are both dead, she will not be able to become a wife, let alone a queen, so she can only entangle the eldest prince like a dodder. , the eldest prince was a little disappointed with the way the emperor and queen handled it. He was their most beloved child, and the child in the mother's womb was fine, so why would he do this?

The eldest prince was unhappy along the way, Mrs. Qi winked at the blind man the whole time, and Mrs. Xie completely closed her eyes and meditated. If there was not only one boat, she would not have gone with these two people.

After the eldest prince arrived in the fief, he acted like a big fight, which impressed the emperor and queen. The first ones to suffer were the small merchants in Cangzhou.Seeing that the rice noodles sold here are so cheap, the eldest prince directly stipulated that fifty cents a bucket, if there is less, even if it becomes moldy, it is not allowed to be sold.

The second thing the eldest prince did when he came to the fief was to meet the county magistrate here, who was single-minded about making everyone rich. The idea he gave was that the waterway was too far away, and if he encountered someone who was afraid of water, he would not come to do business. Therefore, land roads need to be built.

The local county magistrate was about to cry when he heard this: "No, my lord. There is not so much silver in the treasury."

"If there is no other way, there will be a way." The eldest prince said while walking around in other places. Less than half a year after the eldest prince came to Cangzhou, he had gathered around ten capable people and strangers, who gave some advice every day. Whimsical idea.

All the warehouses of the local county magistrate were emptied. In order to increase the weight of chickens, ducks and geese, the eldest prince directly ordered every household to feed them with rice, repair roads and build attics for Mrs. Qi until the beginning of spring. On the crops of the farmers, they pointed fingers and said that there are still so many empty places in the field, and all the empty spaces should be planted with rice, and the yield per mu can be a thousand catties.

While ordering people around, the eldest prince thought about his achievements being reported back to the capital. Those people looked enviously and hatefully, and instantly felt that his hard work these days was worth it.

The county magistrate couldn't stand it anymore, and directly wrote down everything the eldest prince did here. If the eldest prince did this, at least half of the people in Cangzhou would starve to death this year.

The eldest prince is picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence, and the competition among the other princes has reached a fever pitch. You won't let me do things, and I won't let you do things. It's also because of this. At that time, everyone laughed out loud, life in the palace was boring, father must be lonely, so I sent this memorial to make father happy.Several princes with official positions thought so, and the story of the eldest prince spread to the emperor quickly.

The emperor has grown old recently, and his mood is smooth no matter what, what he sees is pleasing to the eye, this kind of happy mood only lasted until he saw the memorial, the emperor looked at these, and this time he really realized what it feels like to be dizzy.

He gave this useless son land and money, as long as he eats, drinks, and handles the case, there are county magistrates, but what did this man do? He harmed the businessmen and forced them to pay for road repairs, and harmed the scholars who studied. Now he has already attacked the farmers. Nian lived by pointing to things in the ground.

How did you come up with the idea of ​​planting all the crops in the spare land, and who did you learn from? Even if it was him, he didn't raise all the princes in one room!Since being surrounded by a master can't stop your heart from letting go of yourself, then don't be a prince.

The emperor thought so, and directly issued an imperial decree. It doesn't matter if you can't be a prince, you can just be an old prince who eats and waits to die. In this way, the emperor came down with an imperial decree, and Ershan changed from Prince An to Prince An. The prince and Mrs. Xie suddenly became the old An Wang and the old concubine.

When the eldest prince saw the imperial edict, his face was full of disbelief: "Why do you fake the imperial edict? It must be fake, fake." He went back with a smile on his face: "My lord, accept the order!"
