The identity of the direct son - Xu I's prosperous world

The emperor's current thoughts are half on Haide in the south, and half on Ji Heng. He is unwilling to spend too much time thinking about other things.

A few days later, Grand Concubine Xu brought Xu Guiren to Concubine Ji Xian, her words were provocative, and she even wanted to take the eldest prince to her to raise for a few days, which means that she is a good Buddha, let the eldest prince In the past, if I received the Buddha's breath, I would feel better if I didn't have a healthy body.

The emperor hadn't been to Duanyang Palace for six or seven days, Concubine Ji Xian was a little at a loss, thinking that she had pushed the emperor into a hurry and made the emperor disgusted, so the emperor didn't come.

Of course, the emperor didn't come to her Duanyang Palace, nor did he go to the other women in the palace.

This incident made Concubine Ji Xian feel a little better.

After some thought, when Concubine Xu wanted to pick up the Eldest Prince, Concubine Ji Xian did not forcefully snatch the Eldest Prince away, but let Concubine Xu take the Eldest Prince away.

In fact, Concubine Ji Xian has many ways to keep the eldest prince, the most direct one is naturally to invite the emperor, but Concubine Ji Xian did not use these methods.

The Eldest Prince's sick and weak body naturally cannot be cured by receiving the Buddha's energy, so after Concubine Xu hugged him to raise him, the Eldest Prince's health became even worse, and it was probably because he was suffering from heatstroke because he was crying for Concubine Ji Xian. At this time, Concubine Ji Xian went to Qinzheng Palace to see the emperor in person. The emperor didn't dare to go to Ji Heng these days because he hadn't figured out a way to make him give birth obediently, so he was very distressed by this matter and had no intention of seeing Ji Heng. Concubine Xian, but Concubine Ji Xian is not so easy to dismiss. She stands in the July sun and does not leave. Even if there is a maid holding an umbrella for her, this is not something ordinary people can bear. Fortunately, she has the foresight. There is not even any makeup on the face, so there is no tragedy that the makeup is worn out due to excessive sweating.

Because Concubine Ji Xian didn't leave, the emperor had no choice but to see her and asked her to wait in the West Pavilion.

When Concubine Ji Xian was walking towards the West Pavilion, she happened to meet Xu Zhen, the general of the Xu family, Xu Xuan's father.

Xu Zhen was going south to Guangzhou again, and he was here to talk to the emperor. He didn't know about the impatient Concubine Xu who took the eldest prince to her to raise him, so after Concubine Ji Xian greeted him politely, he He also returned the gift according to the etiquette, and said, "I don't know how the eldest prince is doing recently."

Concubine Ji Xian showed some distress on her face, and said, "General Lao is concerned, but I don't know the situation of His Royal Highness recently. situation."

Xu Zhen, a veteran who had never changed his face before the collapse of the mountain, also showed a look of astonishment at this time, and Concubine Ji Xian didn't listen to what he said afterwards, and left.

When Xu Zhen left the palace, he frowned, thinking that now is not the time to confront the Ji family. Concubine Xu became more and more ignorant after the death of the queen mother because of her seniority. It is well known that the eldest prince is in poor health due to premature birth. Concubine Xu Taking him away, if something happens, the loss outweighs the gain.

The Xu family now holds a large army and controls the sailors and shipping routes around Guangzhou. With the commercial port of Guangzhou, they can make countless fortunes. The emperor has a secret power in the hands of the people, and there are so many eyeliners. The Xu family naturally knows that the emperor will definitely treat Xu The fact that the family is in Guangzhou is clear to the heart, but the emperor didn't say anything about it, and completely let the Xu family go, naturally because of the Xu family's contribution to the emperor's personal administration back then.However, now that the emperor has promoted Zhao Zhili to Fujian to form another navy, it can be seen that the emperor does not want to see the Xu family monopolize the affairs of the south, and he is afraid of the Xu family.

There can never be absolute trust between the monarch and his ministers. After these years of development, the Xu family naturally understands this.

The Ji family and the Xu family are now going hand in hand in the court. The Xu family did not benefit the Ji family last year. Therefore, recently the Xu family actually intends to have a good relationship with the Ji family because of the matter of the eldest prince. After all, the concubine Xian is the eldest The adoptive mother of the prince, and the noble concubine of the Xu family is the biological mother of the eldest prince, and Ji Fu pretended to be stupid and did not reply. Now that Concubine Xu did such a thing, I am afraid Ji Fu would not be close to the Xu family.

The emperor took advantage of lunch time to meet Concubine Ji Xian. Concubine Ji Xian took the place of serving the eunuch's duties while serving the meal, serving the emperor herself with a very virtuous look. You don't have to be busy, just eat your own."

To put it softly and intimately, it can't be seen that the emperor has left Concubine Ji Xian in the air for many days.

Concubine Ji Xian has been with the emperor for so many years, and she also knows that the emperor's words are gentle, but it doesn't mean that he really takes herself seriously.

So she thanked the emperor softly, began to eat her own, and served tea to the emperor herself.

After sitting down on the couch, the emperor asked, "What's the matter with Ying Niang?"

Concubine Ji Xian didn't feel that the emperor didn't know about Concubine Xu taking the eldest prince away, but the emperor acted as if he didn't know, so she didn't understand his thoughts, and wondered if the emperor was really afraid that Concubine Xu would raise the eldest prince to death.

Concubine Ji Xian said, "His Royal Highness has been ill recently, it's the concubine's fault, the empress dowager couldn't see it, so she carried the eldest prince to raise him, the concubines dare not take the eldest prince from the empress dowager." Come back, so I have to ask the emperor for instructions."

The emperor sighed, and said, "The concubine is really messing around. I know better than her whether you are paying attention or not. You go back, and I will ask Zhang Hesheng to bring the eldest prince back to you."

Concubine Ji Xian then thanked her, and said, "The Eldest Prince has been weak recently, and he is always looking forward to you, Your Majesty..."

The emperor nodded, "I'm going to see him today."

Concubine Ji Xian was satisfied at this point, and when she was about to leave, the emperor suddenly said, "I know how hard it is for you to raise the eldest prince. You are his adoptive mother, and he will only recognize you in the future. When the prince is well, you should also be careful."

Concubine Ji Xian hurriedly responded, knowing that the emperor saw her thoughts, she couldn't help but shuddered.

Concubine Ji Xian went out, and the emperor looked at her back with deep eyes, he didn't look back until she was blocked by the door curtain when she went out, and at the same time, he also had a care in his heart.

The emperor thought about it, so he rested his head on the bed with his hands and fell asleep. Liu Sheng came in and persuaded him in a low voice, "Your Majesty, if you are tired, go to bed and take a nap in the morning."

The emperor closed his eyes and said, "I won't sleep. Let Zhang Hesheng come."

In the past, Zhang Hesheng was Liu Sheng's little eunuch, but now he is an equal eunuch, and the two had some entanglements secretly, but Liu Sheng was the most trusted chief eunuch around the emperor, and he himself It is clear, so the emperor is more important than ordinary people, so go out and let people pass on Zhang Hesheng.

Zhang Hesheng entered the West Pavilion, saw that the emperor had his eyes closed, and greeted him softly. If the emperor was asleep, he would not be able to wake him up. If the emperor was not asleep, he should know that he was coming.

The emperor really opened his eyes, took a look at him, and then ordered him to go to Concubine Xu to bring the eldest prince back to Concubine Ji Xian, but it must be emphasized that it was Concubine Ji Xian who asked the emperor to do this.Then he asked someone to call Weng Taiyi to come to him.

Since Zhang Hesheng is able to be reused by the emperor, although he is not as quick-witted as Liu Sheng, he is still smart and most importantly, very loyal. However, he can't guess what the emperor's meaning is, but he knows that the emperor wants Concubine Xu and Ji Xian As the conflict between concubines increased, he had to think, does the emperor not like concubine Ji Xian?But he didn't think so.

Zhang Hesheng took the order to go, and then called the little inner supervisor to call Weng Taiyi to come to Qinzheng Hall.

Imperial doctor Weng came to see the emperor almost every day now, he seemed to be the most trusted imperial doctor by the emperor, and the emperor promoted him and rewarded him, so he became very popular in the imperial hospital all of a sudden.

However, Imperial Physician Weng is not a high-spirited person, on the contrary, he is more silent and dedicated than before.

This time, the emperor met Weng Taiyi in the rest room of Qinzheng Palace, and then said something to him.

After hearing this, Imperial Physician Weng felt that his heart was turbulent, but even if it was turbulent, he had to endure it, but the surprise on his face could not be taken back in time, and the emperor ignored him so much, just said, "Let's do it like this." .”

As a doctor, Imperial Physician Weng was used to life and death in the cruelest place, the imperial palace, but he couldn't bear it at this time, because it was a dragon after all.

Even so, Imperial Physician Weng agreed.

The emperor then waved to him and let him go.

On that day, even though Concubine Xu yelled at Concubine Ji Xian several times, the eldest prince was carried back to Duanyang Palace to be raised by Concubine Ji Xian.

Because the Eldest Prince's health was getting worse under Dowager Xu's care, and he had a fever, so for a while, three imperial physicians from the Imperial Hospital stayed by the Eldest Prince's side to see and take care of him.

Concubine Ji Xian was extremely resentful towards Concubine Xu, but on the surface she was only deeply worried about the situation of the eldest prince.

The emperor has only such a prince so far, and this prince has also taken the life of a concubine and the position of a queen. Even if this prince has not been crowned prince yet, he is still extremely precious.Everyone thinks so.

After a few more days, the eldest prince's fever has not been cured, even the mouth and tongue are sore, even the emperor went to accompany him many times, but the elder prince's symptoms still do not improve, the emperor was furious, and scolded the imperial doctors for being useless, It's just that the simple fever didn't go down.

And Concubine Ji Xian was also implicated. Concubine Ji Xian said that the Eldest Prince was not in good health when she was depressed, but Concubine Xu wanted to take him to raise him. Worse, and added fever.

Concubine Ji Xian's words pointed directly at Concubine Xu, and Concubine Xu couldn't sit still, but there was no good way to deal with it, because the eldest prince did develop a fever after being carried to her.

When Concubine Xu was helpless, a little maid beside Concubine Ji Xian visited Concubine Xu and said such a thing.

That night, Concubine Xu came to meet the emperor suddenly, and when she saw her, she knelt down and shouted, "Please take pity on the eldest prince and make decisions for the eldest prince."

The emperor was shocked and said, "Please come up, the concubine, what are you doing?"

Concubine Xu refused to get up, and she cried and said a lot, "Mother Ji Jiaying was born of a maidservant, who is cruel and merciless. Just feed him dry longan tea. The eldest prince is suffering from deficiency and heat. Now drinking this dried longan tea is a hot thing. Of course the deficiency and heat will not be cured. Your majesty, you have mistrusted her , She used this virtuous word in vain, but murdered the descendants of the royal family, she should be punished for the crime."

The emperor was shocked and then furious.

So he personally took people to the Duanyang Palace. The lights in the Duanyang Palace were brightly lit that night, and the emperor was furious because it was indeed found out that Concubine Ji Xian used longan here, and a maid beside Concubine Ji Xian also admitted that Concubine Ji Xian had indeed given it to the eldest prince. After drinking the longan soup, Concubine Ji Xian was imprisoned immediately and was about to be convicted.

The eldest prince was taken to the Qilin Hall by the emperor himself to be raised.

Judging from the results, the emperor didn't give the eldest prince to Xu Guiren to raise him, it seemed that even Concubine Xu and Xu Guiren didn't trust him.

The Eldest Prince was already weak, and since he was born, the imperial physicians have never dared to guarantee that he can be kept, and after such a toss, the Eldest Prince is almost suffering the last of his vitality.

As for the problems in Duanyang Palace, the Ji family didn't know until the next day.

It's not that Mr. Ji has no connections in the palace, so he found out early the next morning.

At that time, he and Ji Heng hadn't been on duty yet.

Someone rode a fast horse to inform Mr. Ji of this incident. After hearing this, Mr. Ji's face paled. Even though he has gone through countless major events, he was able to maintain his composure when he was stabbed in front of the door by a sword when he was assassinated. But at this time, he also showed shock and disbelief.

I thanked the person who came to report the letter, but the person who came to report the letter did not dare to stay longer, and left in a hurry secretly. Master Ji asked someone to call Ji Heng to come to the study.

Ji Heng's spirit has improved a lot these days, because after he had suffered from heatstroke in front of the emperor, Imperial Physician Weng would visit him almost every day, and the palace sent food to Jishi Pavilion every day, because it was not just for him. , and he knew that this was a kind of favor from the emperor, and it was only a favor to him, but he had to accept it.

It seems that after eating these things, his health has improved a lot, but since he didn't have menstruation, Ji Heng didn't think much about it. It was the emperor who wanted to change his body into a woman, so he didn't feel vigilant.

Ji Heng was putting on his official uniform and had some food. A few days ago, the emperor sent him some new incense from the palace. Because Ji Heng likes the smell of this incense, he has been using it recently. The orange fragrance lingers on the nose, and the mood is good.

Mrs. Xu wanted to send him out, and said, "You are an official, you are so busy every day, you can't go to Xishan to escape the summer heat. If you want me to say, you are studying history books anyway, so you should sue the magistrate." Fake, take the book to Xishan to practice, there is nothing wrong with it."

Ji Heng smiled and said, "Mother, you underestimate me, so I'm not so afraid of the heat. Besides, the Lantai Pavilion is not hot, and I can discuss knowledge with several adults, which is worse than the wind blowing in the west mountain and the shade of pines and cypresses." It's much better, but mother, you don't have to stay with me at home, go to Xishan to escape the summer heat."

Xu shook her head and said, "What's the point of me going alone."

Speaking of this, she said, "Actually, I showed you a few relatives, and the families of the girls are all good. When do you have free time, let's find a way to meet and settle the marriage for you." In this way, I will really ignore you next year and let your wife take care of you at home."

Ji Heng was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but think of the emperor. After a while of silence, he said, "Let's talk about it in autumn."

Seeing Ji Heng's silence, Mrs. Xu thought he was shy, or because of his health, he said, "The one I like is definitely not bad, and it's not the daughter of such a wealthy family, so don't worry."

Ji Heng nodded slightly, "Let's not talk about it now."

The servant who came to deliver the message said outside, "Eldest young master, master please go to the study as soon as possible, saying that there is something important to do."
