After seeing Dr. Sun off, Wang Ziteng returned to Shi Qingwan's room with a smile on his face, and saw her pale face, holding a small clock with a plain lotus flower and white tire in her hand, frowning, and pursing her lips one by one.He stepped forward quickly, carefully and attentively took the small teapot from the woman next to her, and was going to fill it up for her: "Wan'er still want to?"
Lifting her face, her eyes sparkling, Shi Qingwan glared at him annoyed and annoyed, then lowered her head to ignore him.
Wang Ziteng didn't take it seriously at all, and was still small and gentle. He sent Xiu Fuxiu Rong out, stepped forward to rub her shoulders, and smiled all over his face: "Wan'er, do you feel that your back is uncomfortable? If so , but you must tell me!"
"I've never seen you so attentive and thoughtful!" Shi Qingwan raised her hand to push away his palm with some appetite, fiddled with a simple bracelet on her wrist, and tooted: "Sure enough, a mother is more valuable than a child, Half of what you say is true!"
As soon as Wang Ziteng heard this, he knew that he had offended his wife.Thinking of what Dr. Sun said just now, he hurriedly hugged Shi Qingwan in his arms lightly, grasping Shi Qingwan's slender and boneless catkins with his wide palms, and attached them to Shi Qingwan's lower abdomen; She whispered softly in her ear: "Wan'er, my good Wan'er, don't you like me like this child?"
This sentence was very awkward. When Shi Qingwan heard it, she inexplicably remembered the circular sentence she had heard before; she just saw Wang Ziteng's reaction and felt a little awkward. Turn: "Then do you like me like you like this child?"
Such a sentence caught his ears, and Wang Ziteng laughed, and bit Shi Qingwan's fleshy and cool earlobe lightly as if to punish him: "Zuo narrow!"
After confirming again that his wife was really pregnant, Wang Ziteng suddenly felt that his life was much more complete.Looking at his wife's flat belly, he still finds it unbelievable. Thinking that nine months later, there will be a small, cute little Yuxue doll, he couldn't help but squint his eyes.
With regard to the sex of the child, the couple unanimously hoped that the first child would be a boy.According to Wang Ziteng, she is strong and lively at only one month old. If she is a girl, wouldn't she be a man?As soon as these words came out, Shi Qingwan immediately provoked a fist, which was both angry and funny.
……
This day was Wang Ziteng's rotation after another rest.
He was standing behind the Chongxiao Palace in armor. This was where the upper study was located, where the emperor handled his official duties. Therefore, he was heavily guarded, and five steps was one post.However, because Wang Ziteng is a newcomer, the position in front of the palace is still not his turn for the time being.
"Wang Shiwei, come with the miscellaneous family, His Majesty wants to see you!"
Wang Ziteng was paying attention to the movement around him, when suddenly he heard such a shrill voice that was neither male nor female, it trembled a little after being deliberately lowered, it made people feel chills.However, Wang Ziteng is already used to this voice, no, it should be said that everyone in the palace is used to it.
Turning around, Wang Ziteng clasped his fists at the person who came and saluted: "There is a supervisor of labor and safety!" He didn't talk too much about what happened, and followed the supervisor to the corridor.
An Fu saw that this man was calm and calm, and nodded secretly.As the emperor's close servant, he has long been used to the obsequiousness of other people's flattery. In the royal palace, let alone ministers and concubines, all of them are like this. This prince Teng can do this, it is just pretending, so that he can't see the clues Come on, it's great.
"The minister, Prince Teng, has met His Majesty!"
Tu Gaocheng was sitting behind the desk, flipping through a secret book from Jiangnan, when he heard the voice below, he raised his head.A pair of phoenix eyes squinted, looking at the kneeling person underneath, after a while, she smiled slightly: "Aiqing, get up, Anfu, give me a seat!"
Wang Ziteng sat on half of the stool tremblingly, but he has always had a calm temper, and he probably guessed the reason for it this time, he has a solid foundation in his heart, and he seems neither humble nor overbearing.
"Aiqing is working in the Dragon Guard these days. Is the job going well?" Picking up the fragrant tea brought by Anfu, Tu Gaocheng relaxed and sniffed the tea fragrance in the rising water vapor: "Say Come to think of it, I still have some impressions of Aiqing—a few years ago, when I visited privately in Weifu, I once met Aiqing and Boqiu sitting and drinking in a teahouse!"
After searching in his mind for a long time, Wang Ziteng didn't think of this matter.After all, a few years ago, he and Chen Yude often went to the teahouse together. Others drank tea, and they drank wine. Calculated, they would go there almost every two or three days. How could they remember so much?
Tu Gaocheng asked a few more short words from his parents, and Wang Ziteng answered them one by one.
"What do Ai Qing think of my four sons? Can you be a pure minister?"
Hearing this question sounded like thunder in the clear sky, Wang Ziteng's slack, which had arisen because of Gao Cheng's gentle words, suddenly disappeared into the sky. His pupils shrank slightly, and he slid down from the stool and knelt on the ground: "Please, Your Majesty!" Forgive me, the princes are all magnificent, I dare not speak falsely!"
"Get up and sit down, I forgive you for talking nonsense!" Tu Gaocheng chewed on the word "dragon and phoenix posture" in his mouth just now, and saw him kneeling on the ground with his head deeply hidden, couldn't help laughing, waved his hands, and said nonchalantly.
Wang Ziteng sat back on the stool slowly, thinking twice, remembering the day when the fourth prince was sent back to the natural residence, his wife sighed, and he thought about the words for a long time: "I have no relationship with the fourth prince. But thinking about it, the fourth prince was raised by His Majesty since he was a child, and his elder brother loves him, so he must understand the principle of brotherhood, harmony and friendship!"
Brotherly harmony and friendship——Tu Gaocheng was stunned for a moment, and only now did he look squarely at the little guard in front of him.
Speaking of his heirs, his favorite is the fourth son Tu Wenjing and the fifth son Tu Wenjing, because these two children were born by his beloved woman.However, the two of them are still young, so what I value most is the eldest son, Tu Wenshen; this child lost his mother when he was a baby, so he was almost brought up by himself. Hui Lun has both civil and military skills, so he announced it to the world when he tied his hair, and was named the prince.
It's just people's speculations. Although the reserve position has been determined, there are still speculators who are not willing to give up.The second son, Tu Wenfu, was born of Chen Guifei, the highest-ranking concubine in the palace. Huai, his natal family is the Jiangnan Zhen family, among other things, he is in charge of the salt administration. Jiangnan has always been rich and rich, so its financial resources are almost half of the national treasury!In the past, I gave their family a lot of convenience for the sake of the nanny, but now it seems that it has become an unattainable hob meat!
Before Concubine Lin entered the palace, Concubine Zhen had always been the only one in the palace. It was because she knew that her family was honored only by relying on the grace of God, so she was always gentle and careless in serving the emperor; Flattery wins Gao Chenglong's heart.If Concubine Lin hadn't entered the palace later, I'm afraid that the situation of the ruling and opposition parties would be different now.
This is why Concubine Zhen hated Concubine Lin and her two sons deeply.Even though Concubine Lin's position is lower than hers, Concubine Zhen understands better than anyone else that position is important in this palace, but the emperor's favor is more important than position!
It was Concubine Zhen who led the incident where the fourth prince was injured and fell into the water and disappeared.Taking advantage of the time when Tu Gaocheng brought Concubine Lin and the fourth prince in subdued clothes, he quietly arranged the crowd to disperse them. Although the fourth prince had guards around him, what would a few guards do in Jiangnan and the Zhen family's territory?Knowing that Tu Wenlian had returned to the palace safely, Concubine Zhen almost gritted her silver teeth. She only hated her family's poor handling of affairs. Not only did this kid survive, but she also escaped interrogation.
Tu Gaocheng could only find out that there was something wrong with Concubine Zhen at this time, but he couldn't figure out more.
Although he knew that the emperor's family had always been fighting, and he also won the throne from the bloody storm, Tu Gaocheng still hoped that his few heirs could live in harmony, at least not to kill each other.
"Originally, you saved the fourth prince, so you should be rewarded heavily—but when I thought about it, it wouldn't be beautiful if you changed it frequently." Tu Gaocheng thought about it, tapped the table lightly, and it was very clear in the quiet hall. : "You just arrived in the capital, bought a house, walked a few times to an old friend's house, opened a shop again, and the family is about to have a baby, I think it would be more appropriate for me to reward you with a lot of money!"
Hearing what the emperor said about the past few days in his home, Wang Ziteng was sweating coldly behind his back, and hurriedly stood up and kowtowed on the ground to thank: "Loyalty to the emperor and patriotism, this is the duty of the minister, and it is even more important to share the worries of your majesty." I'm not honored, I'm ashamed to receive your majesty's reward!" Sure enough, it was the emperor's method, and he had to be more careful in the future, he thought to himself.
Seeing his respectful appearance, but his body relaxed unconsciously, Tu Gaocheng laughed out loud: "Be loyal to your duties, put goodness first, and keep your duty. This is the principle of being a courtier. Can you Doing this without selfishness is very good! I will give you a thousand taels of gold! In addition, I heard from Tan'er that at that time he had a fever and fell into a coma. It was your wife who was kind-hearted and took out a pill to reduce the fever, so she gave you more silver. 2000 taels!"
Since he was a child, he has never judged people by their words, but by their demeanor and actions. The information revealed unconsciously is far more convincing than beautiful and majestic words.It can be seen that Wang Ziteng is really happy and satisfied with his reward, and Tu Gaocheng is naturally also very happy. After all, if he is short-sighted and wants to be promoted immediately, then he has to consider whether he should be used.
After hearing this, Wang Ziteng was overjoyed.To be praised by the emperor today is more valuable than other things.At least in this way, I can be regarded as in the eyes of the emperor, and my official career will definitely be more open in the future.
Kowtowing again to thank the reward, Wang Ziteng was led out by the eunuch outside.
"Anfu, privately send the money to Wang Ziteng's house!" Tu Gaocheng narrowed his eyes, staring at the memorial that he had just put down just now, and twisted a small piece of paper out of it.After browsing through it carefully, he remembered something, raised his brows, pursed his mouth, and murmured to himself in a low voice: "It seems that I have treated them too generously. If the claw is in the wrong place, it should be chopped off mercilessly!"
The Zhen family has always been the intelligence collectors that Tu Gaocheng placed in the south of the Yangtze River, but since Concubine Zhen was suppressed by Concubine Lin's favor, they felt a little resentful, and their loyalty to Tu Gaocheng had obviously dropped a notch, what's more, they had already He set his sights on Tu Wenhuai, who was only 13 years old.
If the knife in your hand has the possibility of turning back against its owner, it has no value in continuing to use it!
Tu Gaocheng clenched his hands tightly, crumpled up the secret letter contained in the memorial, and threw it directly into the basin above the red sandalwood shelf next to the desk.I saw that the paper became transparent almost in the blink of an eye, and melted at a speed visible to the naked eye. In the end, only wisps of ink were left, which gradually disappeared in the water.
Lifting her face, her eyes sparkling, Shi Qingwan glared at him annoyed and annoyed, then lowered her head to ignore him.
Wang Ziteng didn't take it seriously at all, and was still small and gentle. He sent Xiu Fuxiu Rong out, stepped forward to rub her shoulders, and smiled all over his face: "Wan'er, do you feel that your back is uncomfortable? If so , but you must tell me!"
