Sheng Shi Merciful Light

In history, there has never been a precedent for "bringing" the princess back to visit her relatives, but the King of Chu said so, Emperor Deguang did so, and Princess Xining had to come back if she didn't come back.With her status as the eldest princess, and the loyal king who was the successor of the first emperor, her relationship with the brothers of the Tian family has become closer. The reception banquet was raised according to her rank, which gave her enough face.

Emperor Deguang presided over it, the King of Chu came in person, and Empress Mei showed up with her eight-month-old belly.In the clan, a high-ranking uncle like Ding Wang Qing had no reason to greet the juniors in person, so he didn't come over and sent his son as a representative.The princess princess also came with her son-in-law.Lately the consorts have been smiling a lot.

Even if he didn't look at Xining's face, he just rushed to the king of Chu to come in person, and all those who were able to move in the line of the clan came, and the welcome banquet was very lively.

Xining and Emperor Deguang are in the same generation, and now she is the eldest princess, so she never expected that so many people would come to her welcome banquet.Back then, the send-off banquet when she went out to meet her relatives was not so lively.From time to time, she secretly took a look at the stunning young man sitting on the throne with an indifferent expression but gentle eyes, knowing who was supporting her face, she had mixed feelings for a while.But the marriage has done a good job of nourishing Qi for many years, and it didn't show on the face. Surrounded by the clan princesses, princesses, concubines and concubines, they praised Xining for taking good care of themselves, and praised Princess Yiyun beside her for being beautiful and cute, and then chatted about fashionable things Clothing, and then talk about many women's maintenance methods in the special issue of the health care edition of "Jingbei Miscellaneous News".

Envoys from various countries were also invited to the banquet. They looked at Nanli envoys with envy and hatred. Why didn't they have a concubine princess?But only Ambassador Nanli felt that his family was suffering and could not tell.

Princess Xining is so helpful, why did Gao Fan take the lead in reopening the border trade?

The envoy of Nanli secretly looked at the indifferent King Chu. This young and virtuous king is not sympathetic and capable.Bei Rong's 30 cavalry troops set up a formation in the north of Xiliang Mountain. Unexpectedly, a Zhengxi army with less than 20 soldiers was defeated. I heard that it was a strong army of Beirong who charged. Before reaching the range of their own bows and arrows, they called Zhengxi Army The flying arrows harvested a piece... If it weren't for the fact that the Beirong were all cavalry and ran fast when they saw something bad, I'm afraid they would have confessed more than [-] to [-].

The so-called 30 army gathered in Xiliang was not bad at 20 at full strength. Daxing killed and captured nearly [-], and the army was defeated.Fortunately, he had the advantage of weapons, and his own casualties were less than [-], and most of them were rescued by the military hospital accompanying the army, and the death list was only [-].

Comparing these data, just thinking about it makes people's scalp numb.But the scariest thing is not here yet.

A total of 10,000+ captives were sent to Chu for 30 years of hard labor along the new grain road, and the expenses for weapons, food and grass purchased from Chu were deducted, which was equivalent to the imperial court winning a big battle without spending much money.The countries that had been waiting to see how the huge military expenditures would drag down Taiko's finances and make Taiko unable to fight any more were desperate.

Now that Xiliang royal court is besieged by Daxing's army, it depends on the mood of the king of Chu whether the country is destroyed or not.Talking about the harmony of heaven and earth with Daxing, and wanting to be let go of a good thing like a compliment, is no longer feasible.

The main forces that benefited greatly from the invasion were Beirong and Xiliang.Now that the two countries have been beaten to the ground by Daxing, Gaofan and Nanli can only obey.Because of Princess Xining, Nanli refused to pay the New Year coins, and lost the opportunity to discuss border trade with Daxing.Fortunately, we only negotiated border trade cooperation with Gao Fan. The contract has been signed, the location has been selected, the rules have been set, and the things for the transaction have been prepared. Come back and give Emperor Deguang another jade seal to take effect, and trade can be opened.

Nanli Kingdom lost the opportunity, and now it all depends on Xining to say a few words.But to be honest, although the king of Nanli didn't do anything wrong to Princess Xining, he didn't treat her very well. It's far from the point of being a husband and wife. Duan Ze, the second prince, was made the crown prince.

The king of Nanli dotes on Concubine Li and her eldest prince. If he was not afraid of offending Daxing, he would have made the eldest prince the crown prince.

At the banquet, Mu Ci usually doesn't socialize with people very much. Emperor Deguang came to talk to him for a while, and after that, several prince brothers and the children of the clan who had friendship with him all came to toast and talk, and Mu Ci accompanied him with flower dew. A few drinks and a few words occasionally.Everyone sympathized with his drinking capacity and did not persuade him to drink.

Mu Ci doesn't like to talk about small talk, and the brothers don't come over. Most of the time, Mu Ci just sits a little lazy on the throne and watches the life at the banquet.He is very good at seeing people, those black eyes are calm and calm, deep and clear, and can easily read people's hearts.Princess Xining has been cautious all her life, she dare not look at Mu Ci, and always avoids his gaze first.Nanli's new prince, Duan Ze, would subconsciously shrink his shoulders under Mu Ci's gaze, thinking that his life would not be very good in the future.On the other hand, Princess Yiyun is lively and lovely, with a pair of bright phoenix eyes that are agile and flying, she should be spoiled and spoiled, she wants to see the king of Chu, but she is a little shy.The younger fourth prince, Duan You, was only six years old, and was well protected by his mother, ignorant and innocent in his eyes.

The eldest prince Mu Qi and the second prince Mu Yu are in charge of entertaining the two little princes.

Speaking of these two princes, the days are going well recently.Because they feel that the palace is stuffy, and the boys are more wild, eight out of ten days they spend outside the palace, learning to read at Prince Ding's house, making friends with Mu Yunge and Prince Xian, seeing more of the world open.He often went to Chu Palace to practice martial arts and play with his friends.

The King of Chu also allowed the two princes to sit in on the discussion, occasionally mentioning a few words, so that the two princes' mentality sublimated, and they knew how vast the world was, and they were no longer confined to their own one-acre three-point land. The concubine and the fight for the position, even the younger brother in Empress Mei's womb has a little sincerity.

Now, in the eyes of the world, the two princes were favored by the King of Chu, and they were brought up by him personally.Because the King of Chu himself is high-spirited and upright, he abides by the system of heirs, and he is willing to give the throne to his elder brother, so no one thinks that the King of Chu will instigate two concubine princes to seek the throne.On the contrary, I feel that the character of the king of Chu will affect the prince, and there will be no more chaos of "five kings fighting for the throne", and I am really happy.

No matter how much shocking knowledge the prince can learn from King Chu's side, how to govern the country, just look at the attitude of King Chu, the weight of the two princes will naturally be much heavier, and the maids in the palace who are used to watching the wind will no longer dare to be contemptuous. Even Emperor Deguang felt that his son would be able to learn well by being with the ninth younger brother. He would lose his grievances and pick up a loving father's heart. He no longer wanted to raise and waste the two children because he killed the child's biological mother.

Speaking of it, there are more benefits to subtly influence Emperor Zhongdeguang.

"As big as the heart is, as big as the stage" is very reasonable.For example, if a woman only sees trivial things in her eyes every day and fights for petty gains, she will be like that for the rest of her life.If a man only spends his time fighting for some limited interests in his own small circle, but does not think about making a big circle, the achievements of this man are only in such a small circle.

If an emperor can only see the dragon chair, he only wants to suppress the balance, and his ambition is wiped out.A country can really keep it.

Therefore, Emperor Deguang not only benefited from the harmony with the Mu Ci brothers, but was also influenced by Mu Ci, and became more generous and generous with a long-term vision.

Because of the reconciliation of the Nine Kings and Uncles, the father became loving again. The two princes knew how to distinguish between good and bad. They were no longer influenced by Concubine Xie. The panic and panic of the birth mother's first death came.

Mu Qi has broad eyes, calm and measured, and has everyone's demeanor.Mu Yu also imitated his elder brother, he was quick-witted and intelligent, but a little more lively.They are about the same age as the young prince of Nanli, and their seniority is the same. The two brothers naturally pulled Duan Ze and Duan You to sit together. I also came to join in the fun, and we talked about some interesting stories about our friends, and quickly drew the two little princes from Nanli into our circle.

Empress Mei saw that there was nothing discordant in the scene, she was exhausted in organizing the reception banquet, she couldn't bear it after sitting for a long time, she leaned on her big belly, apologized to Emperor Deguang, and announced to leave the banquet.Everyone knew that she was pregnant with twins, and it was very hard work, so they didn't mind, and continued to have a feast after sending them off.

……

The feast was still going on happily ahead, Empress Mei returned to the Hall of Renming, halfway there she couldn't move anymore, her eyes turned dark and she shook her body, with three or four hands supporting her beside her.Yuexuan hurriedly checked her pulse, and asked worriedly: "How is your empress feeling? Do you want to call Yuche?"

"No, I'm tired and a little dizzy. I'll take a break and continue walking." The more you walk, the better you will be. Empress Mei has been exercising for the past few months. She rubbed her belly and felt the active fetal movement inside, and smiled.

I don't know who gave the inspiration. After entering the palace, Xie Siniang took out a fetal heart receiver, which confirmed that Queen Mei was pregnant with twins in her belly, which was bigger than usual.However, in the eyes of others, the good thing called Double Happiness is a hidden danger in the palace.It's best to have twins, or twin princesses, but you can't have a pair of twins, otherwise it will easily mess up the rules and regulations, and it will be a disaster.

What if one of them is sealed as the crown prince, and the other looks exactly the same?A few minutes is not a few days, will you be convinced?If you accidentally take the first place, how can you tell them apart if they look the same?So the usual practice in the palace is to drown a younger one, the status of a prince is still not enough in front of Jiangshan Sheji.

When Empress Mei heard that they were twins, she couldn't lift her breath and passed out.Emperor Deguang's excitement about having a son-in-law just poured cold water on him, and he didn't know what to do.Fortunately, the king of Chu came forward again, he didn't care at all, and said happily: "It's good to have two sons, just give me one."

Although Empress Mei was reluctant to part with her heart and soul, she also knew that only the King of Chu could keep her child, so she felt relieved.

Emperor Deguang knew that it was difficult for his younger brother to have an heir, and he had already planned to adopt one for the ninth younger brother, and he was not unhappy.Although he will not seek to seize the property of the ninth brother, but the children he adopted to the ninth brother will inherit the property of the Chu Palace in the future, and they will live better than the prince.Moreover, the ninth brother is close to him, and he can often see the children being raised by him, and the younger generation can also get closer.

Even if they are twins, it doesn't matter. Queen Mei has no psychological burden in the past few months. She eats, sleeps and exercises well. The only worry that weighs on her is her third brother who is not worried. The logistics of the war disappeared for more than four months.

In the past few months, Empress Mei never heard the King of Chu mention Mei Rong again, and even Emperor Deguang no longer regarded Mei Rong as the object of marriage for the ninth younger brother, and her attitude towards herself and the Mei family was much better.Empress Mei felt for a moment that the king of Chu and his third brother had been separated for too long, and everyone was happy that the two of them had faded away like this.It's not worth it for my brother for a while, it's only been a few months?The King of Chu forgot about the third younger brother. He didn't miss the old love at all, and even sent the third younger brother to work in the north. It was no good to eat and sleep in the open every day.

Although the third brother has the title of General Dinghai and the function of Privy Governor, he is contributing to the Northwest War.But with a beard and a logistics worker, who knew that Mei Rong had served the country?It's simply not thankful for the effort, and the logistics are difficult to deal with, and you have to blame if you do something wrong.It is even more offensive to block others from reaching out.

The third younger brother of his family suffered hardships in the Northwest, but the king of Chu lived a happy life, and the new favorites around him had changed several times.Because Emperor Deguang promised the King of Chu to marry a male concubine, he paid special attention to the men who appeared around him. Anyone who was favored by Mu Ci had to investigate the eight generations of his ancestors.

Shui Tanhua, who was originally favored by Emperor Deguang, suddenly became the number one master in the Jianghu, Young Master Lijian, who was disgusted by the King of Chu because of his frivolous behavior and left the Jianghu.Emperor Deguang thought that Beard would be favored, but he didn't see anyone after a few months, and the king of Chu didn't mention it. It was obvious that he was out of favor, so Emperor Deguang stopped paying attention.

The closeness between Mei Rong and the King of Chu once attracted attention, but now how many people laugh at Mei Rong for being overconfident.

Two months ago, the beauty Le Shu returned to the palace from King Qing’s Mansion. Everyone just guessed that Le Shu used some means to win over Prince Qing’s son, and won the "favor" of King Chu again. Become a good citizen, allow him to take part in next year's imperial examination, and let out the word that he will choose a girl from a good family for him to start a family.Recently, Le Shu's grandmother, Gao Shi, is cheerful, and through her natal Gao's sister-in-law, she is active again in the circle of wives by relying on the big tree of the king of Chu, and has become a favorite girl for her grandson.

Last month, the new favorite of the King of Chu became Dou Zhe, the former son-in-law.After Dou Zhe and Princess Yongjia successfully reconciled, he was protected by the King of Chu and became a Hanlin scholar. He became the editor-in-chief of the national newspaper "Daily Morning News" hosted by the King of Chu. Very.

As a result, before Emperor Deguang could make a move, the new favorite of the King of Chu changed again.

This month, the one who got close to the King of Chu was Zheng Tianshi, one of the enshrined in the palace... his favorite closed disciple, Kong Chanyi.Kong Chanyi was originally from the Gu family in Nanzhi County. He was in poor health when he was young. It happened that a master traveled to Nanzhi County. He said that he had a predestined relationship with Taoism and accepted him as a disciple to escape from the secular world.

Kong Zenyi has just turned 15 years old, and he has grown into a young Taoist priest with the appearance of a fairy. His appearance is beautiful, his manner is romantic, and the blue Taoist robe on his body only sets off his noble and ethereal aura. .

Kong Chanyi is proficient in everything from piano, chess, calligraphy and painting to astronomy and geography. An invitation is a must.Mu Ci went to the Taiqing Temple on Mount Li several times, and there were rumors that the two of them swam with their arms together and fell asleep together.

I won't go into detail about the other outstanding men who have appeared. In short, the scandal about King Chu has never stopped. Although the King of Chu has never stood up to express his position, he has never banned the rumors.So it's not very true, there should be three or four points.

Empress Mei sighed deeply when she thought of this.

The king of Chu is "flirty and happy", but his third brother is afraid that he doesn't know anything, and he is still kept in the dark. It's really not worth it to work for him in the north.Empress Mei didn't know what happened to her third younger brother and King Chu. If they fell out of favor, it would be too late to say anything now. Could there be anything that could be redeemed?If he hadn't fallen out of favor, how cold-hearted the King of Chu would be to throw people away for a few months, so what good would his third brother have?Does a big man want to compete with so many people?It's better to just fade away like this...

Empress Mei sighed again, she is not a mother-in-law, but she has tasted the entanglement of a mother-in-law-to-be.
