Shimen is poisonous

That night, Emperor Ming visited the East Palace and asked Ye Baihan, "How is it? Do you still like this arrangement?"

Ye Baihan thought for a while, but he didn't ask those questions buried deep in his heart. Instead, he answered in a relatively normal tone: "It's too expensive... It's so expensive, it's better not to waste money and people."

Emperor Ming replied: "It's not a waste of money, Han'er can rest assured."

Ye Baihan said: "Actually, why build such a medicine garden? Jingdu is not a place suitable for planting spiritual herbs. It is really unnecessary to consume spiritual stones like this. What's more, many of the materials are not commonly used. It’s fine to buy it from Xianshi, and it’s really unnecessary to raise a garden specially.”

Emperor Ming said: "Really? I think it is very necessary. You grew up elsewhere, and your heart is no longer in the imperial capital. I have to find a way to let you live in the palace better and have more things you can't bear to bear." .”

Ye Baihan blinked, but said: "Pillions and so on are always things outside the body. For me, the most important things are mother concubine... and father emperor."

Emperor Ming didn't know if he could hear the stagnation in his words, but he smiled slightly and said, "It's best if it's like this."

Just from his facial expressions and actions, Ye Baihan really couldn't see anything unusual.Emperor Ming's attitude towards Ye Baihan is indeed very different, but Ye Baihan is the only child of the royal family after all, if it is explained that the emperor's attitude is the love for the only son, it is actually justified.

Ye Bohan was also going to the early court because he was crowned prince.In fact, he didn't think it was necessary, because he, the prince, probably couldn't wait for the day when he ascended the throne.

But even so, superficial work still needs to be done.Having just been appointed, Ye Bohan is not too casual, so he still goes to him every morning, but he rarely speaks, and mostly listens quietly.Emperor Ming seldom used anything to make things difficult for him. He probably knew that he didn't care about it. Maybe his original intention of being the crown prince was not really to train Ye Baihan.

The deep meaning in it is worth pondering, although most of the courtiers probably don't understand it, that's why they mentioned Ye Baihan's marriage on his first day at work.

Ye Baihan: "..."

Emperor Ming sold his concubines very readily. Generally, as long as the price is right, the transaction can be completed smoothly. Of course, the follow-up service is a bit bad, and it is also a fact that the personal safety of customers cannot be guaranteed.However, Ye Baihan can't control so much if one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer.

But he was unwilling to do such a thing. Fortunately, Emperor Ming did not sell him, but Ye Baihan didn't know whether to relax or hang his heart.

After the court that morning, Ye Bohan went to see the queen.

It took him a lot of effort to change his words. If ordinary courtiers or concubines and court ladies had this kind of virtue, they would have been put on small shoes by their superiors long ago.Fortunately, the queen is Ye Bohan's biological mother, so he doesn't care if he can't change his words for a while.

Seeing Ye Bohan coming, the queen immediately asked someone to bring up the snacks and tea that she had prepared earlier, and said, "Why are you here now? Don't you need to listen in the imperial study with your father?"

Generally, after the early dynasty, there is also a royal study room to discuss matters, so that the Emperor Ming can understand some actual policies and detailed reports.Emperor Ming is an energetic Mingjun. Generally speaking, there is such a process every morning, calling ministers in to report and consult on the details of some specific matters, and sometimes it will continue until the afternoon or even night.

Emperor Ming obviously practiced the kingly way, relying on dragon energy to improve his cultivation.Although he can't be a Tianlong, he obviously has the ambition to be a human dragon, so he never neglects governing the country.

Ye Bohan said: "It's fine in the early court. Father and the six ministers discussed government affairs and didn't call me, but I don't want to go in on my own. Besides, I still have some things I really want to ask my mother."

The queen was taken aback for a moment before asking, "What do you want to ask?"

Ye Bohan said: "I am very concerned about the affairs of the first queen, can the queen mother tell me about this aunt?"

The queen was stunned for a moment, but she didn't refuse, so she told Ye Baihan a few anecdotes about the former queen.

Ye Bohan listened silently, extracting information he thought would be useful.

The first empress was married to Emperor Ming as a concubine. She had no heirs for more than ten years. It was not until several years after Emperor Ming ascended the throne that she finally conceived. However, she did not give birth in the end. Instead, the first empress died. .

The queen said: "If my aunt's child was born, I'm afraid your father would have made him a prince at that time... In that case, it wouldn't matter to you or me. Maybe we have another identity now..."

Ye Bohan listened to what the queen said, his eyes flickered, but he didn't respond.

After all, the queen thought too simply.

Ye Baihan asked again: "Is the relationship between my aunt and my father good? When my aunt was pregnant with my brother, was my father nice to her?"

The queen said: "The relationship between your aunt and your father is very good. I heard that when your aunt was pregnant, your father couldn't wait to be by her side all the time except for going to court..."

Ye Bohan was silent for a while, before asking: "Will the other concubines be pregnant, won't the father guard them?"

The queen suddenly laughed, and said: "Your father is so busy with so many things, how can anyone be there when they are pregnant? Concubines in the harem, someone will become pregnant in a short time, and there are not many who can really be raised... "

She even once suspected that the death of those princes and grandchildren was secretly done by the emperor himself.In fact, even now the queen is not very sure about this matter, but it is rare to be confused.

"...after my aunt, since I entered the palace, except when I gave birth to you, your father has been by your side every day. I really haven't seen any pregnant concubine by his side at other times."

Ye Baihan's heart trembled, although he knew that the next question would inevitably arouse doubts, he couldn't care less about it, so he could only continue to ask: "In this case, when the mother gave birth to the younger sister, the father was also by his side? "

The queen was silent for a while after hearing this, and then said: "Han'er, mother is old after all, but your father is still as good-looking as ever. Even if it is rumored that I have been favored for many years, but what is the real situation, I want to come to you I also saw it with my own eyes.”

Ye Baihan understood it.

When the little princess was born, Emperor Ming must have never been by his side.

For Ye Bohan's question, the truth is almost at hand.

He opened his mouth, and finally asked the last few questions: "I'll just ask my mother the last few questions. When my mother was pregnant with me, did my father behave abnormally? Or did he use any unusual things for you?" ?”

This question is a bit sharp.

After all, the queen was startled by Ye Bohan's question, showing a look of confusion, and said, "What's abnormal!? Han'er, what do you want to ask!? What do you want to ask!?"

She was obviously taken aback.

Ye Baihan said: "Mother, don't be afraid. This matter is really important. I have already set up a very simple soundproof barrier in the house. For the time being, no one can hear us. Mother, think about it carefully, then Did anything special happen?"

After hearing this, the queen was a little out of her wits, and said after a while, "It's special... I can't remember it for a while. But if you have to ask, I can barely remember something."

During the period when the empress was just pregnant, Emperor Ming was always very nervous. He had to sacrifice to her every once in a while, and at the same time prayed for the unborn child.

One of the blessing ceremony, the queen felt a little strange, because that ceremony was a bit like a smaller-scale prayer ceremony, but it was a little different from the prayer ceremony, because the words of the prayer sounded a bit like evocation.

But although it was a bit strange, some visions happened later, which overshadowed the weird part, so the queen forgot all about it afterwards.

Ye Bohan frowned after hearing this, and asked, "What kind of vision is it, can the queen mother tell me?"

The queen said: "There is nothing wrong with it. I think you should have heard about this incident when you were a child. On that day, all the flowers in the mirror capital bloomed."

Ye Baihan shook his hand, and the cup in his hand suddenly fell off and hit the table.Fortunately, the place Ye Baihan took was not high enough, so when it landed on the table, only a few drops of tea splashed out, neither broken nor even poured down.

Emperor Ming performed a ceremony, and after that, all the flowers in the city bloomed.

What kind of causal relationship is there! ?

The queen didn't expect his reaction to be so big, she was taken aback immediately, and shouted: "Han'er!?"

Ye Baihan came back to his senses this time, bit his lip, and didn't speak.The queen asked, "What happened!? What happened to you?"

Ye Baihan didn't answer the queen's question, but continued to ask: "I'll ask the queen mother another question! Did my aunt hold this ceremony when she was pregnant with my unborn brother!?"

The queen didn't expect Ye Bohan to ask such a question, she was stunned for a moment, and then said: "I don't know about that." But she also gradually realized that Ye Bohan must have an obvious purpose for asking these words, so she thought about it carefully. After a while, he said, "But since it is a blessing ceremony for blessing, it is very likely that it was performed when my aunt was pregnant. Although I don't know the specific situation, someone might know."

"The two maids who served your aunt in the past are currently being raised by your grandfather's house..."

After hearing this, Ye Bohan said, "Queen, I want to see them."

The queen said: "It's okay to meet, but Han'er, I want to know why you ask these questions? Are you doing something dangerous?"

Ye Baihan didn't know how to explain the reason to his mother, so he gritted his teeth and didn't speak for a while.

The queen looked at him, but in the end she didn't pursue her further, she just hugged him and said, "...don't do dangerous things."
