The male reader who mistakenly transcribes the birth child can't afford to be hurt

Fangmei, named Jiang Fang, came from the Jiang family in Jingzhou.The Jiang family was originally a businessman in Jingzhou for generations, but in the generation of Mrs. Jiang, the accumulation of money began to want to go official.

When Wen Shiyi entered Jingzhou as an official, it happened that there was a drought in Jingzhou.Mrs. Jiang immediately donated a large sum of money to relieve Wen Shiyi's urgent need. Later, other people followed suit. Stand firm.

Old Master Jiang never concealed his thoughts when he helped Wen Shiyi, and even though he had a little intention of taking advantage of the situation, he helped Wen Shiyi solve a difficult matter after all.

It is also a beautiful thing to cooperate with each other.

So later, when Wen Shiyi wrote a letter to the emperor, he specifically pointed out the Jiang family's contribution, intentionally asked for credit for the old man Jiang, and implicitly mentioned the Jiang family's needs.

Wen Shiyi did a very good job of dealing with the drought in Jingzhou, he solved it quickly and easily, and there were no riots and complaints from the people in other places.From the beginning to the end, it didn't cost the court a penny, and some people praised the emperor's wisdom and sent a good official to come.

The emperor was naturally overjoyed after receiving Wen Shiyi's note.

For the Jiang family who contributed the most, the emperor naturally gave a little favor, and gave a special gift to the next generation of the Jiang family to enter the court as an official as long as they were not involved in business.

According to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, merchants cannot be officials for at least three generations.On the one hand, the Jiang family was reluctant to part with the foundation they had accumulated, and on the other hand, they were looking forward to entering the court.This gift from the emperor is naturally a great joy to the Jiang family who want to be an official.

Mrs. Jiang was naturally unable to be an official, but his son Jiang Mao was promoted by Wen Shiyi to become a county magistrate in Binyuan County, Jingzhou.Although the official position of the county magistrate is quite small, it means that the Jiang family has stepped into the officialdom since then, which is always different from those authentic businessmen.

Therefore, the Jiang family also respected Wen Shiyi very much. After all, Wen Shiyi was an outsider as an official, and the Jiang family was the local leader. The Jiang family helped Wen Shiyi a lot in many things.

Wen Shiyi's assessment in the Ministry of Officials these years has been excellent. Apart from his own ability, he is also inseparable from the Jiang family's patronage.

And this beautiful woman is the daughter of Jiang Mao. A few years ago, the emperor drafted women to fill the harem. Jiang Fang's appearance and posture were all excellent, and she was not engaged, so she was selected and sent to the palace.

But what Mizhe said later is very intriguing. It is said that Jiang Fang died of a disease due to acclimatization on the way to the capital.Everyone in Jingzhou knew about this. The Jiang family originally wanted to use Jiang Fang to soar into the sky, but they didn't expect things to turn out like this.

The most important thing is that Jiang Fang herself has been able to read and write since she was a child, and she has no medical knowledge at all, and she has nothing in common with the Fang beauty in the palace.Those who secretly went to investigate Fang Meiren's affairs found out that there was something wrong with it, and immediately reported the matter to the emperor.

After reading the excerpts, the emperor was in a bad mood. Since Jiang Fang died of illness, who is this beautiful woman in the palace?What a big deal it is to replace a person into the palace, if there is no careful planning, how could it be possible to replace a dead person.

Was this planned from the start, or did someone mess with it along the way?

Countless thoughts swirled back and forth in the emperor's mind, and in the end he still felt that this matter had something to do with the Wen family.Fang Meiren's trap should have been a trap from the very beginning, and the Wen family's scheme was deep enough.

Thinking of this, the emperor snorted coldly, and put the booklet on the imperial case.

Seeing the emperor's gloomy face, the sender hesitated a few times, and asked the emperor if he wanted to investigate the affairs of Jiang's family.

The emperor was silent, and after a long time, he burned the secret book with his own hands.There was a bit of vicissitudes and helplessness on his face, which finally turned into full of disappointment, but he still spoke, and said in a very low voice: "There is no need to investigate this matter, and withdraw everyone. This matter must not be spread , if anyone else knows, don't blame me for being cruel."

The person who delivered the booklet was busy making various vows that he would never reveal a single person to others, or else he would be hit by thunder.

The emperor watched him and waved him to retreat. In the past, according to the emperor's temper and disposition, he would have silenced the relevant personnel who knew about these things.

The emperor didn't do this this time, mainly because he suddenly felt that Xu Zhen had a god in his head. He killed too many evils, had no grandson, and his son was useless.

Thinking about it this way, the desire to silence his mouth became much lighter.

The emperor burned the secret book, which can also be seen as a compromise with Zhou Rui to a certain extent.

Zhou Rui and Concubine Xian naturally didn't know what the emperor heard and did.

At this time, the uncontrollable joy in Concubine Xian's heart had settled down. She heard Zhou Rui's words about old Mrs. Wen and said, "Prime Minister Wen is right."

Zhou Rui frowned and said, "Concubine Mu, why do you always stand by Prime Minister Wen's side?"

Concubine Xian raised her hand to interrupt what he was about to say, and continued: "But what you said this time is also correct. Prime Minister Wen has indeed done things very safely these years, but this matter is not a safe one. If the emperor If there is any suspicion, no matter how safe you are, he will think that you are pretending. If the emperor is not suspicious, even if you go too far, it will be fine."

Hearing Concubine Xian's words, Zhou Rui's depressed mood eased by two points, he said: "Mother Concubine, I always feel that Prime Minister Wen has many things to hide from us."

Concubine Xian said: "Prime Minister Wen can't always discuss everything with you. He is a prime minister, and his every move is watched. You can't hold your breath. Even if he hides something from you, it's for your own good."

Zhou Rui murmured: "I understand what my mother and concubine said, but I'm afraid that Prime Minister Wen will do the same to my son in the future."

Concubine Xian's expression faded a little because of this, and she said as if pointing: "Wen Xiang is a smart man, you can use him now, and he will do his best for you. In the future, it is also because of your husband and wife's love that the daughter of the Wen family will enter the middle palace Shen, Prime Minister Wen must also know how to advance and retreat."

Zhou Rui felt relieved after hearing this, the Wen family was too powerful.When he helped him, he was naturally happy, but when he became the emperor, leaving such a person by his side would be like being roasted by fire.

Thinking about this scene, he felt uncomfortable. He only hoped that Old Master Wen would be as smart as Concubine Xian said.When he became the emperor, the Wen family should retire, and he would naturally keep the Wen family's face.

Concubine Xian glanced at Zhou Rui, who was distracted and didn't know where he was going, and said: "Don't mention this matter, you don't go to the harem these days, and behave more modestly and cautiously in the court. If the emperor really asks about your prince, You must not be as reckless as you were when you supervised the country last time."

Zhou Rui hurriedly said: "Don't worry, my concubine, these ministers know about it. The ministers are only able to relax on the side of the concubine mother, and their performance is a bit out of line."

Concubine Xian laughed, she said: "This is a rare happy event, didn't Ben Gong feel lost when he heard about it?"

Zhou Rui said: "The minister there has retired."

Concubine Xian nodded.

When Zhou Rui was about to leave, someone from the palace suddenly came to report that An Zhaoyi brought the fifth prince Zhou Kang to ask for an audience.

When Concubine Xian heard An Zhaoyi's name, her expression was cold and indifferent. She said to the palace attendants who came: "Tell An Zhaoyi, I am a little tired today, and I don't want to see anyone."

Seeing her appearance, Zhou Rui seemed to have some opinions on An Zhaoyi, so he said, "What's wrong with Concubine Mother, An Zhaoyi has always followed Concubine Mother's lead, why is Concubine Mother like this today?"

Concubine Xian sneered twice and said: "Over the years, she has helped me a lot, and she has always been cautious. I have always regarded her as a safe person, so I still use her a little bit. But after the incident with Beauty Fang, Concubine Shu and Zhou Xiang was implicated, but she took Zhou Kang to see the emperor. What did she mean? She wanted to take the opportunity to tell the emperor that there was only Zhou Kang, a normal prince in the palace, so that he would not be persecuted by us, and she wanted the emperor to look at him more Zhou Kang, let him reach the sky in one step? Now that the emperor wants to make you the crown prince, she came rushing here again. Why don’t you think about what she did at that time? But now I won’t fall out with her, This matter will be handled properly by the palace, you still have something to do in court, so go back first."

Zhou Rui nodded and said, "The minister there will leave."

When Zhou Rui went out, An Zhaoyi and Zhou Kang were still standing in front of the palace gate.Seeing Zhou Rui, Zhou Kang's eyes lit up, and he called "Brother", and An Zhaoyi also saluted.

Zhou Rui nodded, probably affected by Concubine Xian's words in his heart, his expression was a little lighter than before.

Not long after Zhou Rui left, An Zhaoyi and Zhou Kang were invited into the palace by the palace staff.

It's just that there is no shadow of Concubine Xian in the palace. The palace people said that Concubine Xian is changing clothes, and An Zhaoyi stood there softly and waited.

Concubine Xian had been changing her clothes for a while, and when she came out, An Zhaoyi had already stood there for a stick of incense.

Concubine Xian caressed Bu Yao on her head and said with a smile: "I have quite a lot of clothes and jewelry in this palace. It took me a long time to choose them, and I was too late to pick them out. Don't blame me, sister, sit down quickly." .”

An Zhaoyi forced a smile and said, "My sister is too polite. My sister came to visit my sister just after being lifted by the emperor. I never wanted to disturb my sister's interest."

Concubine Xian smiled so politely.

An Zhaoyi pushed Zhou Kang into the arms of the palace man next to Concubine Xian and said, "The fifth prince is a little sleepy, let her go to sleep for a while." A man of complete trust.

Concubine Xian didn't expect that she would do this today, so she raised her eyebrows involuntarily.

Seeing Concubine Xian's appearance, the palace servants hesitated to take Zhou Kang down.Zhou Kang didn't make any noise and left obediently.

Concubine Xian looked at her freshly painted nails and said, "The Fifth Prince is obedient."

An Zhaoyi lowered her eyebrows and looked a little aggrieved and said: "The fifth prince is young, and what he said was childish, even if he said something wrong, the emperor would not care about it. After the incident with Fang Meiren last time, the emperor misunderstood The eldest prince felt uncomfortable. The younger sister took him to talk to the emperor for a while. He said that the eldest prince was the best brother in the world. The emperor liked it very much. My younger sister used to take him He went to speak in front of the emperor, but it was not as good as that one."

Concubine Xian paused when she heard An Zhaoyi's words. She naturally knew that An Zhaoyi was explaining to her that she had no other intention of taking Zhou Kang to see the emperor, and was just looking for news for her.

Just like An Zhaoyi said, if Zhou Rui made any mistakes in the past, An Zhaoyi would take Zhou Kang to see the emperor.In the eyes of the emperor, Zhou Kang was young and didn't understand these battles in the harem at all.

In the past, Concubine Xian was always very satisfied with what An Zhaoyi did.

But this time, Xu Shi had no other opponents in the palace, Xu Shixian thought too much when she was bored, and couldn't help but take what An Zhaoyi did as a special case, thinking that she did it on purpose.

But then I thought about it again, what did An Zhaoyi use to compete with her, and what did Zhou Kang use to compete with Zhou Rui?

Thinking of this, although Concubine Xian still had doubts in her heart, she finally faded a little, she said with a smile: "I understand my younger sister's thoughts, and I will definitely keep it in my heart."

An Zhaoyi looked at Concubine Xian finally showing the same smile as in the past, and the tears of grievance finally fell down in her eyes, she said: "Recently, there are gossips in the palace, and my sister has angered the emperor and was confined. During this time, I didn’t have the time and opportunity to explain everything to my sister. Fortunately, my sister didn’t misunderstand, otherwise my sister would have no way out in this palace.”

Concubine Xian knew that An Zhaoyi was passing the steps for herself by saying this, and they all knew that it was because of a misunderstanding that she deliberately neglected An Zhaoyi like that just now.

However, after being in the palace for a long time, her face has become much thicker. Concubine Xian didn't even move her face. She followed An Zhaoyi's words and said with a smile: "Don't you know how my sister is in this palace? How can such gossip and rumors offend us sisters?" There's a rift."

After speaking, Concubine Xian grabbed An Zhaoyi's hand and patted it lightly, as if to soothe her swaying heart.

An Zhaoyi smiled, she wiped her tears and said, "As long as my sister trusts me, I won't be afraid of anything."

Concubine Xian nodded, let go of An Zhaoyi's hand, and hurriedly asked the palace servants to serve tea and snacks.

Where no one was watching, An Zhaoyi let out a breath quietly.She shook her hand gently, and suppressed all the expressions in her eyes.

@@@

Lin Jinwen obviously felt that the emperor was in a bad mood today, and took the opportunity to punish several groups of people, even returning the Lantern Festival, but Wang Jinan was not blamed.

The emperor still attached great importance to Wang Jin'an.

After reading the book again, the emperor casually threw it on the ground, and said: "All the gossip and trivial matters are reported, are these local officials idle waiting for food?"

Wang Jin'an silently picked up the booklet and put it aside without saying anything unnecessary.

The emperor was very upset and irritable. He raised his eyes and saw Wang Jinan standing there with his face upright and didn't say a word of witticism. He felt that he was like a piece of wood, so he said in his heart, "Back off."

Wang Jin'an didn't know where he offended the emperor, so he left with an aggrieved face.

The emperor was amused by his expression, and the boredom in his heart dissipated by two points.

After Wang Jin'an left, the emperor looked at Lin Jinwen and said, "Jinwen, you are absent-minded today, what are you thinking about?"

Lin Jinwen raised his eyes and said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, I heard some rumors in the palace just now, saying that you want to make the eldest prince the crown prince."

The emperor sighed after hearing this, and Lin Jinwen didn't have anything to say.Anyone who came here at random would definitely only say the previous sentence.Only after people's appetite has been whetted, will they say what the rumor is.

Lin Jinwen said it all at once, bluntly, the emperor always felt that something was missing, the taste was too bland.

But Lin Jinwen had such a temper, and one day he would talk in a wrong way, and the emperor really didn't necessarily want to see him.

Thinking of this in his heart, the emperor raised his eyebrows in surprise and said, "There is such a thing?"

Lin Jinwen nodded hurriedly and said: "Indeed, many people are spreading rumors, is the emperor really planning to establish a first prince?"

The emperor sized him up and said, "Why does it look like you don't seem to want the eldest prince to become a prince?"

Lin Jinwen had a look on his face that you could tell, he stood there suddenly a little at a loss, as if he didn't know what to say.

The emperor hummed and smiled: "Well, what do you think in your heart?"

Lin Jinwen pursed his lips and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, didn't I fight with the eldest prince back then? Didn't I fear that the eldest prince would take revenge and cause me trouble in the future?"

The emperor was overjoyed, and he said, "Didn't you think about this when you hit someone?"

Lin Jinwen said depressedly: "Your Majesty, at that time the eldest prince was the eldest prince, not the crown prince. Now that you want to make him the crown prince, then he is the future emperor. Although he is not very smart, he still understands the matter. It's kind of scary."

When the emperor heard the words "future emperor", he was in a bad mood.However, he looked at Lin Jinwen who didn't know what he said was outrageous, and he didn't open his mouth to punish him after all.

The emperor just said indifferently: "Do you think you offended Zhou Rui just once?"

Lin Jinwen was stunned, and he said: "Is there anything else? What's more, that time, the humble father personally went to apologize to the eldest prince."

The emperor looked at his face full of curiosity, and wanted to say, didn't he offend people thoroughly from the beginning?But he held back, and even said ruthlessly: "There is nothing else."

Lin Jinwen breathed a sigh of relief, and then he said: "Your Majesty, if the eldest prince becomes the prince, should you give him some gifts from the humble position, so that he will not mind the past."

Since ancient times, the only person who asked the emperor to give him a gift to a prince was Lin Jinwen.The emperor was stunned by him again, looking at Lin Jinwen's sincere expression, the emperor was convinced that he was serious.

The emperor withdrew his gaze and only felt that he really wanted people to throw Lin Jinwen out of the palace gate. He said with a blank expression, "No need."

"But……"

"There's nothing wrong with it." The emperor interrupted him annoyedly: "I'm still alive, even if the eldest prince is a prince, what can he do to you?"

When Lin Jinwen heard this, he also felt that it made sense, and instantly felt relieved.

The emperor heard him muttering there: "What the emperor said is true, the prince is not as big as the emperor."

The emperor snorted coldly in his heart, he thought to himself, Lin Jinwen really has eyes as long as four fingers, the crown prince is not as big as the emperor, but after the crown prince becomes emperor, he will be the biggest in the world.

I don't even think about it, if I don't rush to curry favor now, what will happen when Zhou Rui becomes the emperor in the future.

The emperor actually wanted to remind Lin Jinwen of this matter, but he swallowed the words again.

He thought that sooner or later Lin Jinwen would be affected by his unlovable mouth.

Lin Jinwen could naturally tell what the emperor was thinking.

The emperor was like an angry old man, pursing his lips and looking at Yu An with hatred in his eyes.A smile appeared in Lin Jinwen's eyes, but he quickly restrained himself.

He immediately sighed in his heart, saying that the emperor didn't treat him very well, he wanted to take advantage of everything, and kept everything secret, if it was the real Lin Jinwen, he would have died countless times.

That is, he, with a clear mind and eyesight enough to coax the emperor.

Lin Jinwen then thought of what the emperor meant by taking Wang Jin'an away today and saying these words in front of him.

Think about it, the emperor wanted him to tell Gu Qinglin about this matter, and let it spread to Wen's family through Gu Qinglin's mouth.

In this way, it is easier to be convinced that the emperor made Zhou Rui the crown prince.After all, Lin Jinwen got it from the mouth of the emperor, and Gu Qinglin got it from Lin Jinwen.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, the emperor never personally admitted that he wanted to make Zhou Rui the crown prince.

Lin Jinwen wasn't sure if there were other thoughts hidden in the emperor's signal to everyone that he wanted to make Zhou Rui the crown prince, because he was too disappointed with Zhou Rui.

This is also true, the only prince in the palace who has all beards and tails now is the fifth prince, Zhou Kang, who is still so young, and An Zhaoyi is begging for a living under the concubine Xian.

Whatever the emperor did to Zhou Kang, the virtuous concubine could kill him.

Therefore, it is best for the emperor to stay still. In order to stabilize Zhou Rui, at least his heart that always wants to provoke troubles should be calmed down.So it is best to give Zhou Rui a signal to make him the prince.

Of course, this is just Lin Jinwen's guess, he has no definite evidence.

He was just wondering, since he could guess like this, would Mrs. Wen and the others have the same idea.

Zhou Rui is easy to fool, but Mrs. Wen, that old fox, is not easy to fool.

But fortunately, Mr. Wen would be suspicious of Zhou Rui's words, and Mrs. Wen would probably believe half of what came out of Lin Jinwen's mouth.He is a person who has no heart and only cares about the emperor.

When Gu Qinglin spread the news to the Wen family, Mrs. Wen would probably be in a state of both believing and disbelieving.At that time, the emperor still needed to give Mrs. Wen a dose of tranquilizing medicine.

If the emperor really had a problem with Zhou Rui and wanted to establish Zhou Kang in his heart, then this dose of medicine would appear soon.

Thinking of this, Lin Jinwen pursed his lips, he thought, things are ever-changing, with layers of camouflage peeled off, the struggle between each other is still the battle for the throne.

After Lin Jinwen went back that night, he accurately conveyed the emperor's meaning to Gu Qinglin.

Gu Qinglin frowned and said, "What does the emperor mean?"

After thinking about it, Lin Jinwen still told Gu Qinglin the analysis in his heart.

Gu Qinglin was really surprised now, he said: "The emperor really has such an idea?"

"I think so." Lin Jinwen grabbed his hand and said softly: "First there were rumors in the palace that a crown prince was established, and then Xiao Rugui said that the emperor asked Wang Jin'an to reassure the concubine Xian, and now he asked me to reassure the Wen family. Others think that this is a helpless move by the emperor, because at present, except for Zhou Rui, none of the princes can become a prince, but I always feel that the emperor will definitely not do things like this."

Gu Qinglin nodded, deeply feeling that what Lin Jinwen said made sense.He said: "The emperor is complicated and suspicious. The eldest prince has repeatedly challenged his bottom line. I am afraid that the emperor really has such thoughts."

Lin Jinwen squinted his eyes, and said, "You can write a letter to the Wen family tomorrow."

Gu Qinglin thought for a while and said: "I'd better go there tomorrow. It's a bit too casual to write a letter for this kind of thing. It's best for me to go in person. Don't worry, I will be very careful this time, and I will definitely It's fine."

Lin Jinwen looked at him, and hummed after a long time, agreeing with his words.
