[Comprehensive Wear] It's hard to be a princess

For concubines, even if their natal family is in the capital, it is difficult for them to know the movements of their natal family in the first place.In the palace, it is forbidden to give and receive privately, and to pass on news, especially to the outside of the palace. This is an extremely taboo thing.Of course, there are policies above and countermeasures below.Why do the concubines in the palace have to manage the palace people below? On the one hand, it is to make their lives more comfortable, and on the other hand, it is also to let them pass some news.Some palace people whose homes are near Gyeonggi can see their family members at the gate of the palace every few months. This is the kind of money that sends their children to the palace, and some people receive errands out of the palace. So, you can Pass them to the mother's family.As for placing people in the palace, it was still possible when the country was founded. Now, the people in the palace have changed several times. Manpower is really not an easy task.

Therefore, it is good for a concubine to be rich and favored. She can find a way to convey some words to the outside world, know some family affairs, and even invite her natal family members into the palace.But those who can't wait to be favored, have no money in hand, and are unwilling to support them at home, naturally it is difficult to know what is going on outside.

Concubine Zhen is rich and favored, but her natal family is far away in Jinling, and she has no close relatives in Beijing, so at most, she just listens to the palace people talking about things outside. Emperor Qianyuan sometimes talks about things about the previous dynasty, but Although Concubine Zhen is not big-chested and brainless, she actually doesn't have much political sensitivity. Emperor Qianyuan only spoke a few words, and rarely talked about the Zhen family. Even if he did, it was nothing more than who was promoted or something Yes, so Concubine Zhen really doesn't know what her natal family thinks.

As a result, after returning to her natal family, she saw her mother happily expressing that the emperor loves you so much and likes the twelve princes so much. Then, after a hundred years, the chair can be made by others, and the twelve princes can also sit on it!

Concubine Zhen only felt that the whole person was not good. She hugged the prince's thigh just after she decided to be a mother and son, but her mother's family actually wanted to replace him?The twelve princes are younger than the eldest grandson of the emperor. Even if the crown prince fails, why does the mother's family think that the twelve princes can compete with the other older princes?

As a result, the Zhen family directly used the example of the first emperor at that time: "The prince of the first emperor was also expected by everyone, but what happened in the end! The emperor was also at the bottom of the ranking back then, so this matter of seizing the heir is not It was a coincidence to be born early! What's more, other people don't know about the emperor's physical condition, but don't you know, my lady? With such a fierce spirit, the emperor still has twenty years to live, no matter what, The crown prince is proud now, can he still be proud for the rest of his life?"

Concubine Zhen was originally a person with no ideas. When her family said this, she immediately felt that this is not impossible. Compared with hugging other people's thighs, expecting to be a concubine after the emperor's death, how can it be compared to being a concubine? What about the Queen Mother!Thinking of this, Concubine Zhen was also moved.

"Empress, don't worry, let's sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight first, and let those highnesses take the lead first, and we will hurt both sides with the prince, and let the emperor down, then the emperor will think that our twelve princes are more lovable?" There are also experts behind the Zhen family, so they naturally gave advice to the Zhen family. The Twelve Princes are still young, so they can't get ahead at this time, but being young is also an advantage. Everyone will not feel that the Twelve Princes are a threat for at least ten years, so, ten Within a year, those princes who are interested in seizing the throne will naturally focus on dealing with the prince, and in another ten years or so, the twelve princes will also show up.

After Concubine Zhen thought about it, she suddenly felt that this was indeed a good idea. Of course, there is a premise for this. At least in the past ten years or so, her holy favor must not fade away. It's the new favorite of Emperor Qianyuan, so it's better to hug Donggong's thigh from the beginning!

Emperor Qianyuan still lived in the territory of the Zhen family. Compared with the first time he came here, the Zhen family made their garden more luxurious. Except that it did not have the name of the palace, it was actually no different from the palace.

"Tsk tsk, I should let my master come to see the garden of Zhen's house, so as not to brag about his own house!" Feng Yu and Liu Fu also lived in a yard near Zhen's house, and wandered around for a while , Liu Fu praised him.

Feng Yu snorted softly: "If the money spent in this flowing water is spent, even if this place is originally a wasteland, it can be turned into a fairyland of the world!"

Liu Fu glanced at Feng Yu, and asked in a low voice, "Could it be possible that the father allocated money to the Zhen family?"

Feng Yu curled her lips: "Even if there is, it's not much. Who knows where the Zhen family got the money, maybe it was the money withheld from the Weaving Mansion and the Yanzheng. To put it bluntly, their loyalty to the king and patriotism is still made of wool. It’s on the sheep. It’s nothing more than the fact that Emperor Father values ​​the Zhen family and feels that the Zhen family is loyal to him, so he doesn’t care about it!”

However, it will be different when the amount of money sent to Beijing is getting smaller and smaller every year, and the deficit is getting bigger and bigger.Moreover, the Zhen family said that the money was spent on Emperor Qianyuan, but in fact, the Zhen family picked him up four times, only once in a few years, and usually the Zhen family enjoyed it by themselves.The longer the Zhen family enjoys the wealth comparable to the royal family, the more expenses will naturally be incurred.What's more, in addition to their own enjoyment, if they want to help Tu Jingyu seize the heir, they have to form cliques for personal gain and make friends with officials and scholars. Which of these does not cost money?The so-called desire is hard to fill, they still only dare to make small troubles now, most of the money is spent on the garden, but it will not be necessarily the case in the future!

Liu Fu also sighed with emotion: "Father really values ​​love and righteousness!" But he was muttering in his heart, wouldn't everyone feel that in the future, studying and practicing martial arts is not as good as nepotism, and it is really rare for the Zhen family to talk about their talents Usually, Zhen Yingjia is not even a child, but first she became an official by virtue of her mother being the emperor's wet nurse, and then relied on her own daughter to become an official. Loyal and patriotic.In the future, wouldn't everyone want to engage in nepotism?

Seeing Liu Fu's delicate expression, Feng Yu also understood in her heart, she just smiled and said, "Father has always been kind!"

In any case, the Zhen family's service is still very capable. In the Zhen family's side, Feng Yu and Liu Fu live very comfortably, let alone Emperor Qianyuan!The Fengsheng lady of the Zhen family had served Emperor Qianyuan for many years, and was very careful about Emperor Qianyuan's various preferences, so naturally all aspects were properly arranged.

But in the capital city, Tu Jingchen's life was pretty easy. Anyway, he approved the reply paper, and ordered someone eight hundred miles to send it to Emperor Qianyuan in a hurry, so that a few people stared at Tu Jingchen, wanting to The prince who caught Tu Jingchen's shortcoming was very disappointed.Originally, they wanted to obtain evidence of Tu Jingchen's dictatorship, forming a party for personal gain, etc., but turned around and found that compared with themselves, Tu Jingchen, the prince, was much more innocent and fair, but they themselves, taking advantage of When Emperor Qianyuan was not in the capital, although the palaces of several princes were not very popular, they also distributed money in various ways, wooing some down-and-out nobles and some unsatisfactory officials, and operated by various means to promote their own people.

Tu Jingchen also didn't speak ill of his brothers in the booklet. After all, he actually knew that Emperor Qianyuan still had other people in the capital, and these people would naturally spread the news to Emperor Qianyuan.

Emperor Qianyuan naturally received a lot of secret documents, and he naturally had some thoughts about the operations of his sons. Although it is only the middle and lower-level officials who are recruited now, these people are actually more in number. It's normal operation, and it's not sure what will happen later.If Tu Jingchen also followed suit to win over the courtiers, then Emperor Qianyuan could keep them, but now the crown prince is very honest, but they are so restless, Emperor Qianyuan thinks about it and thinks it's time to beat these sons!

The so-called beating of Emperor Qianyuan was definitely not directly attacking several sons, but directly cutting off their wings. Therefore, those with small arms and legs were considered to seize the throne. For the emperor, they would not I feel that my son did bad things, that is, my son is ambitious, but I feel that the people around me are not stopping, encouraging my son to have ambitions that he shouldn't have.It's like Kangxi knew that he had indulged the boss's ambition and made the prince feel insecure, but Mingzhu and Suo'etu were the first to do the surgery. Anyway, the bad things were done by the maids, and the good things were done by the young ladies. The truth is almost the same.

Tu Jingchen didn't know that his father thought he was honest, and wanted to slap his brothers in turn. He was a little stunned at the moment, looking at the crown princess Zhang: "You mean, you have another gone?"

The concubine said beamingly: "Isn't that right, I was playing with the twelfth brother today, but the twelfth brother was tired from playing and couldn't control it, so he relieved the concubine. When the concubine went to change the skirt , I suddenly felt a little nauseous, and I asked the imperial doctor to feel the pulse, and said that it has been nearly two months!"

When Tu Jingchen counted the time gate, he was conceived not long after he took Tu Jingyu to the East Palace. He thought about what he told Emperor Qianyuan to ask the twelve younger brothers to bring a little nephew and niece. The words became prophecies, and I couldn't sit still immediately, and said quickly: "Hurry up, spread paper and ink for Gu, Gu wants to write a letter to the father to announce the good news! Also, prepare a generous gift and send it to Concubine Zhen!"

When the crown princess heard this, she couldn't help being taken aback: "For the concubine Zhen?"

Tu Jingchen then told the Crown Princess what he had said at Emperor Qianyuan's side, and the Crown Princess also felt that it was a bit of a coincidence, so she couldn't help laughing and said: "This is really fate, then I really have to thank Concubine Zhen !” Saying that, the Crown Princess hastily asked someone to open the warehouse, preparing to give Zhenfei a thank you gift.

Not long after, Tu Jingchen's letter and gift of thanks arrived in the south of the Yangtze River. When Emperor Qianyuan read the letter, he was immediately happy. His superiors were grateful to Emperor Qianyuan and Concubine Zhen, and their words were nasty. Of course, Emperor Qianyuan didn't think there was anything wrong, but Emperor Qianyuan After showing it to Concubine Zhen, she just wanted to click her tongue. She had never read the letter between Emperor Qianyuan and Tu Jingchen before. She never thought that the relationship between father and son would be like this. Some teeth are sour.Knowing that the Crown Princess of the Eastern Palace is pregnant again, she suddenly became a little uncertain about her natal family's plans.

Good things come in pairs. The next day, when Concubine Zhen asked for Ping'an's pulse, she found out that she was pregnant. Immediately, Emperor Qianyuan became turbulent.
