[Red Mansions] The Road to Empress Dowager

Tu Yuanyi said: "You still have to be cautious when choosing a son-in-law. The most rare thing is to be happy with each other. You can't press the head without drinking water, but it will harm others and yourself."

Empress Yang said: "How honorable is this royal princess, who dares to hold grudges in the grace of heaven?"

Tu Yuanyi shook his head and said, "What does love between men and women have to do with status? If you don't like it, you don't like it, and if you don't like it, you don't like it. Even the Queen Mother, you should persuade me."

Empress Yang couldn't help turning pale when she heard this sentence. Looking at this indifferent man again, she always felt that his expression was different from before when she saw him this time.He is lofty and unpredictable, and today he talked to her about "love between men and women".

Empress Yang felt an unprecedented torment and pain in her heart, she forced herself to hold back, and suddenly heard the palace maid report that it was the Eldest Princess and the Eldest Prince who had arrived.

The eldest princess is 12 years old now, and she is still raised in the side hall of Qifeng Palace. The eldest prince is 11 years old. Since Tu Yuanyi ascended the throne, the two princes under her knees have been sent to study in the Shangshu. built the government.

"I will see my father, my father Wanan!"

A son and a daughter visited the ground respectfully and joyfully. Tu Yuanyi really loved the two children.

The eldest daughter is his first child, and the feeling of being a father for the first time made him hard to be soft, and the eldest son was supposed to die early, but he used detoxification medicine to save him, not his unfilial sons in the future .

It's his second son, he's okay now, he's grown up, and he's addicted to womanizing, fighting cocks and running dogs, it's hard to become a master.

"Get up." Tu Yuanyi asked about Tu Hui's homework again.

Tu Hui said: "I have already learned how to ride a horse, and I can draw a ten-stone bow and arrow; I just finished learning "Spring and Autumn", and now Li Taifu is teaching us "Han Feizi". "."

Tu Yuanyi nodded and did not stop him, so Tuhui recited it brightly: "A wise man must see foresight and see clearly. If he does not see clearly, he must not be selfish; , You can’t pretend to be a traitor. People and ministers follow orders, and govern officials according to the case law. Your Majesty, this is a place where people are respected..."

Tu Yuanyi spends little time on his children, but it is an instinct for children to want his attention.They tried their best to win his attention. Although the book is difficult to memorize, they can sing it after reading it hundreds of times.

The feudal dynasty was Confucianism outside and law inside, and Suzong, who was mean and ungrateful, especially valued law. "Han Feizi" and the laws of this dynasty were compulsory courses for the prince, and his requirement for the prince was to read the four books and five classics, and he did not require memorization.The energy allocated can be used to learn other things.

It wasn't until Tu Hui finished reciting "Indignation of Solitude" that Tu Yuanyi nodded in satisfaction and said, "Not only must you know how to recite it, but you must also understand the principles in it. Look around and find the truth from practice."

Tu Hui cupped his hands and said: "My son, I would like to follow the teachings of my father!"

Only then did Tu Yuanyi calm down and said, "I'm hungry too, let's eat."

Tu Xin took his arm and said, "Father, Xin Er wants to sit by your side."

Tu Yuanyi did not object, and the family ate dinner like ordinary people.

When it was time to go to bed at night, Tu Yuanyi still wanted to take off his clothes and lie down to sleep, just like the kind of scumbag who had tasted that his mistress had no interest in his wife outside.Who told this to be ancient times, he was the emperor, and the Emperor Sanguan here has so many women, all the women in the world can want.

He said unreasonably, "The same thing, the surname Zhao can't do it, he may not be able to do it", time and space are different from identities, so naked/naked, how can a woman's small will be taken into account?

Empress Yang listened to the nanny's teachings, she may not be so old, and she would collapse when facing a man with the door closed, because those foxy girls don't know how many tricks are behind their backs.

Only then did Tu Yuanyi change into the pajamas they would wear at night when they first got married, with a red bellyband, a large breast exposed, perfumed dew on their body, and long hair hanging behind their backs.

"Saint, let the concubine serve you."

Empress Yang walked over, sat beside him and leaned over. Tu Yuanyi closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and sighed: "I'm a little tired, I'd better rest early."

Empress Yang couldn't help turning pale, ashamed and angry, and said, "Saint, what is wrong with Xuan'er?"

"You are my original wife. As long as you remain the same, this will not change at all. You were seriously ill that day, and I found someone to heal you, so I never thought about changing you now. You have raised a son and a daughter for me. Girl, I remember it all."

Empress Yang was very embarrassed, and said: "The concubine doesn't want the saint to remember..."

Tu Yuanyi's phoenix eyes turned cold, and he said: "Queen, look at your father, you have married a step-wife before ascending the throne, after ascending the throne, Empress Dowager Liu is the third successor, this is the emperor's family. Although you are the queen , I saved your life not to let you live to ask me to do something for you."

People are like this, once the life is too easy, the requirements will be higher, and there will be more greedy things.With power, money, and children, love is only now thought of.And if you live in the dire straits of a normal harem, and it is difficult to take a bath and eat a full meal, you will definitely not think so.

Tu Yuanyi's heart was as cruel as other emperors.His three views are the standard self-centered three views of emperors, and Xing Xiuyan is the only fainting stain.

Empress Yang put away her grievance and weakness, and said: "The sage and newcomer enter the palace, and the concubine also expects it. It's just that since they are both newcomers, it is better for the sage to be exposed to the rain and dew. Xingcai didn't abide by the palace rules, and the concubine punished her to withdraw." The sign. The concubine dared to say, how could the sage send it to Beiyuan, and not go through the respect room to have fun with her every day? How does this convince the front court and the rear palace?"

Even if Tu Yuanyi knew that Empress Yang was dissatisfied with Xing Xiuyan, he didn't want to open up with her and embarrass her.

But this kind of thing has to be taken care of. Since Tu Yuanyi was reborn, he hated being restrained the most. How could he have a good attitude towards the queen?

Lord Tuhun said coldly: "Who in the previous dynasty dared to discuss the palace curtains? In the harem who I dote on, is it possible that he still listens to the concubine? Is there anyone in the harem who is not convinced, could it be the queen?"

Empress Yang was terribly annoyed by being blocked, but Lord Tuhun got up, put on his clothes, and left with a flick of his sleeves.

……

Beiyuan is not as lively as the harem, but fortunately, it is empty. Xing Xiuyan is wearing a simple summer waist-length skirt, a light blue top embroidered with orchids, a blue brocade pleated skirt, and a long sash. Light pink soft smoke Lo Phi Bo.

She boldly tied the hem of the skirt around her waist, holding an eagle-shaped kite, and asked Qingxuan to tie the strings for her first.

Then she ran quickly on the Cuju field, the kite flew higher and higher, and her silver-like laughter came from the whole field.

The nine princesses and ten princesses from Emperor Gaozong and the eldest and second princesses from Tu Yuanyi finished the morning class in the palace, and after class they made an appointment to visit the imperial garden together.

Although the four princesses are a generation apart, the oldest nine princesses of Emperor Gaozong are 13 years old, and the youngest is the second daughter of Emperor Qianyuan who is also 10 years old, so they are considered to be of the same age.Since Emperor Qianyuan came to the throne, the reading and literacy lessons of the four princesses have been placed in the same class, plus each princess has two companions, 12 people in a class.

Tu Yuanyi changed the regulations of Gaozong's time, raised the princess as a man, and also read the Four Books and Five Classics, poetry, wine and articles. The requirements are not so high.

After the four princesses arrived near Beiyuan, the eldest princess thought of her mother's recent worries. There is no impenetrable wall in the harem.The eldest princess is Suzong's eldest daughter, and she was more favored than the second princess whose biological mother was Concubine Cui Shun when she was a child, but she has a certain domineering princess.

"I heard that there is a vixen hiding in Beiyuan, who confuses the emperor all day long, advises the emperor, and makes the emperor ignore us after alienating the mother." The eldest princess said bitterly.

The second princess had seen her father two months ago, she couldn't help feeling sour, and wanted to shed tears.

The tenth princess said: "I heard from my cousin that this lowly servant girl in the House of Internal Affairs is very good, and she is the best at pampering her. The empress punished her, but she was hidden in Beiyuan by the emperor's brother. I couldn’t summon her. I heard that he was punished by the emperor and banned from going out of Beiyuan, but I heard from my cousin that the emperor comes to Beiyuan every day.”

The birth mother of the nine princesses was just a beauty who was born as a court lady. She died three days after giving birth. She was raised in the palace for several years without anyone caring about her. Much better, everywhere can be compared to the first princess.Her feelings for Tu Yuanyi are the same as those for Concubine Zhou Shugui. Her current life is given by the emperor Tu Yuanyi, and she knows that her future future still depends on him.Those who have endured hardship can see more clearly, and there is no arrogance in them.

So the nine princesses said: "Sister Shihuang, Xin'er, don't talk about this behind our backs, the emperor brother will be unhappy."

The tenth princess snorted and said, "Coward!" The tenth princess disliked the ninth princess's cowardice, and she came from a humble background.

The princess's heart moved, and she said, "Aunt Ten, let's go and see what that vixen looks like."

The ten princesses hit it off immediately and said, "Okay."

The second princess was still a little scared, and said: "Eldest sister, if the father is angry, will he ignore us anymore?"

Tu Yuanyi doesn't like Concubine Cui Shun very much now, because in the original trajectory, she gave birth to the third prince, who conspired against him when he was 50 years old.

Because of this treason, he killed two favored younger sons, and finally he passed on to the original eighth son, who was the heir of his unfilial son.Of course even Tu Yuanyi didn't like the second princess. The husband's family "in those days" was attached to the third prince and the Cui family faction.Children are the most sensitive. Of course, the second princess felt that Tu Yuanyi had hardly smiled at her.

But the fearful Ninth Princess Gaozong and the Second Princess Suzong were no match for the two domineering First Princesses, so they could only follow behind.Of course, the female companions who came from the courtier's family didn't dare to speak too much, but they didn't dare to push forward when it came to saints and concubines. One person asked for an order to resign, and everyone respected them.

Xing Xiuyan was flying the kite, and when she saw the kite flying high, her heart couldn't help letting go. At this moment, she suddenly thought of when she was A Piao in the past.The uncle has magical powers, after all, he can take her to fly, and now he also likes to take her to fly, but the method is not suitable for children.

When Xing Xiuyan was thinking of something unsuitable for children, the thread suddenly broke, but he saw the eagle kite fly out of the Beiyuan palace wall and float to the imperial garden.

Xing Xiuyan secretly thought that the threads of this era were not so strong, and ran to the gate of Beiyuan with the maids and eunuchs.

But I saw four girls in luxurious clothes, thin skin and tender meat like water onions, making trouble at the gate of the palace.
