Who dares to touch my son in the Red Chamber
Chapter 23
For the sake of her mother, Empress Zhou reluctantly agreed to find a good family for her. However, when Miss Zhou saw the candidates sent by Empress Zhou, she immediately became furious.
Not only are there no princes and aristocrats here, there are not even high-ranking officials above the second rank. Basically, they are new Jinshi from well-to-do families or the bastards of honorable families.
Cheng Engong knew that these candidates were suitable for his youngest daughter, but he also saw that his eldest daughter did not want to see his youngest daughter, and these candidates were all quite satisfactory.
If Empress Zhou agrees with Miss Thursday a little bit, she will naturally plan a better marriage for her. After all, even if it is to curry favor with His Royal Highness, marrying a vase is not considered an investment. After all, it is just a word from the empress.
This time it was probably Cheng Engong's test of the queen, if the queen had no objection to him, and saw the little sister enter the palace to pay her respects, she would definitely find a good family.
For the future of Cheng'en Gongfu, they even persuaded the biological mother to record the fourth girl under the name of the aunt's mother and marry them as the aunt's daughter. For the face of being a father.
The left is just a question of the size of the dowry, Mrs. Cheng Engong naturally doesn't care about it, but this has invisibly added support to the cousin Wu.
Cheng Engong likes his childhood sweetheart cousin, that's for sure, coupled with his old mother's love for his cousin, so he hopes that Queen Zhou can let go of her prejudices for the sake of the overall situation and the future of Cheng Engong, and fulfill Thursday girl.
However, this list let him know that it was Empress Zhou who was beating him on behalf of her mother, don't think about what's there or what's not, she just didn't speak directly.
After Chen Engong sighed, he gave up. It is better to seriously choose someone among these people for his youngest daughter, and express his opinion to Queen Zhou.
The proud girl on Thursday didn't think so. She could see that this was the suppression of her mother and daughter. Knowing that her father was going to follow Queen Zhou's wishes, she decided to do whatever she wanted.
Faced with the death of his beloved daughter, the concubine washed her face with tears and the old mother complained of illness, Cheng Engong had no choice but to give up, and then handed over the marriage of Miss Thursday to the old lady, but for the old lady's request, remember the fourth girl He did not dare to agree to the matter under the name of his first wife no matter how much he forced him.
Everyone outside knew about this little mess in Cheng Engong's family, and also understood Queen Zhou's attitude, so, facing the old lady's intentions, the wealthy family naturally did not want their son to marry such a woman.
When Empress Zhou heard that when her grandmother was looking for a marriage for the fourth girl, she just smiled lightly and let it go. Anyway, she didn't intend to put much thought into it.
So, things froze here. Fortunately, the girl on Thursday is still young, and she still has time to fiddle around.
However, every time Miss Zhou thought of the handsome and majestic emperor, her heart thumped like a little rabbit.
Miss Zhou was always in a mess after thinking hard, but at this moment, Miss Zhou heard that Empress Zhou was pregnant again.
This made the girl on Thursday feel even more uncomfortable. She secretly cursed Queen Zhou for being old and unscrupulous. She still seduced the emperor at such an age.
Cursing and cursing, Miss Zhou thought that if Empress Zhou died, according to the emperor's love for Empress Zhou, the importance he attached to the prince, and the Zhou family's position as the prince to ensure the family's longevity, they would definitely find a Zhou family. If the girl enters the palace to take care of the prince, then, as the queen's natal sister, she is the best candidate.
While planning, Miss Zhou discovered that Lan Xiang, the daughter of the prince's nanny, who was also the first-class maid beside the prince, had unreasonable thoughts about his own brother, the third son of Cheng'en Gongfu. When people used to use Lan Xiang to go out of the palace to spread the word, it became a good thing secretly.
Therefore, Miss Zhou used this as a threat to force Lan Xiang to help her abort Queen Zhou, and promised that after the matter was completed, she would be raised as the aunt of the third brother's backyard.
One must know that all women in the palace, whether they are concubines, female historians, palace maids or even eunuchs, are all tools used by the emperor to vent his anger.
Lan Xiang broke her body, if she was discovered, she would be promiscuous and disorderly in the harem, and if she failed, she would be accused of punishing the nine clans.
Lan Xiang was afraid, coupled with her admiration for the third son, without the help of the fourth girl, she would never have the opportunity to serve the third son in a fair manner in her life.
So, she was tempted.
When Lan Xiang went to Cheng'en Gong's mansion to deliver things again, the girl on Thursday gave her a pack of medicine powder, but was discovered by Cheng'en Gong's cousin.
After hearing the whole story, Cheng Engong's cousin said: "If the fourth girl wants to succeed, she should not have a baby now, but also help to stabilize the pregnancy."
After that, the cousin sent Lan Xiang back first, and took the red flower back, which made Lan Xiang let out a long sigh.
After several months of Lan Xiang's anxiety, seeing that Queen Zhou was about to give birth, the task given to Lan Xiang by the girl on Thursday came, making her reveal the time of the queen's delivery seemingly unintentionally.
This is much easier than prescribing drugs, and it is much easier to complete this task. Therefore, when Empress Zhou gave birth, she was not caught in the manipulation.
However, as the so-called knowing daughter is more like a mother, Lan Xiang's strangeness, how can she escape her mother's feelings, under pressure, Lan Xiang told the story.
When the prince's nanny heard this, she was so angry that she scolded her daughter for being a murderer, and she wanted to take her out, but she couldn't find an excuse for a while.
Besides, the daughter has already passed away, and besides being the third young master's aunt, that is to say, she has to twist her hair and become a young lady. However, after giving birth to five sons, there is only this one daughter's nanny, how can she be willing to take her life?
What's more, even if the nanny is willing, because Lan Xiang is her daughter, she is already the daughter of Dagong next to the prince. Once she dies suddenly or there is a trouble, it will definitely attract attention. If something is found out, they It's all over.
Fortunately, after this incident, the girl on Thursday didn't look for her again, as if she didn't remember the original promise.
This is undoubtedly good news for the grandma's family. The grandma does not point her daughter to be the third young master's aunt. In the eyes of the grandma, the third young master is just a bastard and has no great ability.
The queen has escaped life and death again, it is really unwise for her family to be related to the aunt's line.
So far, even occasionally going to Cheng'en Gong's mansion to pay the master's peace, the nanny would not ask Lan Xiang to go, but unfortunately, as a palace maid, there is no special situation or the master refers to marriage, so she can only suffer. to 25 years old.
The nanny inevitably attracted people's attention. While looking for people, she thought, after these two years, as soon as Lan Xiang reached Ji, she immediately lost her old face and begged the prince for mercy to get Lan Xiang out.
Three years was enough for the nanny to relax her vigilance. Who knew that the personal eunuch next to the prince went out of the palace to work in Cheng'en Gong's mansion.
The little eunuch recognized that the boy belonged to Duke Cheng'en's mansion, so he asked, "What else is there?"
The servant laughed and said: "Elder-in-law was in a hurry just now, and someone from the mansion left a box and didn't put it in. Here is a high-quality jade inkstone found in the mansion. The master found it by accident. It is said that it is a good thing."
The little eunuch carefully opened the box and saw that it was indeed a high-quality jade inkstone, with matching ink sticks beside it, and nothing else.
He is a young eunuch, no matter how clever he is, it is impossible to see the mystery of this thing, and since the thing came from Cheng'en Gong's mansion, he lost his vigilance.
In addition, the servant secretly stuffed a purse for the young eunuch, and the young eunuch squeezed it with his hands, understanding it, and naturally he was even more happy. Seeing the servant's hesitant to speak, the little eunuch asked: "Is there anything else?"
The boy scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Elder-in-law, can you help me give this to Miss Lanxiang next to His Highness the Prince?" He took out a small bag as he spoke.
The eunuch opened the package, and there were some scattered silver and small denomination banknotes inside. At first glance, it was a gift from the master, and there was also an exquisitely crafted hairpin.
He looked up at the pale boy, and jokingly said, "Miss Lan Xiang is someone who must be used by His Highness the Crown Prince. You look like a villain, but you don't have a chance~"
The boy lowered his head, and then said: "My mother has a good relationship with her mother."
The little eunuch shook his head, knowing that this kid was probably wasting his troubles in vain, even if the crown prince didn't take Lan Xiang into the house, he wouldn't be able to marry her to the servant of the government.
However, thinking of the two rewards I got today, plus there is nothing taboo here, I smiled and said: "Okay, the miscellaneous family will help you once, if you can really hug the beauty back, you have to ask Everyone is drinking."
Only then did the boy breathe a sigh of relief, nodded and said: "By my father-in-law's auspicious words, if the little one really has such good fortune, the little one will definitely respect the father-in-law."
How did the little eunuch know that this action not only brought something that shouldn't be brought into the palace, but also helped to convey the message that there was a mystery in the hairpin.
The inside of the hairpin was hollow, and it was a note from Cheng Engong's cousin threatening to use Lan Xiang, but, if it was specious, other than the two of them, the rest of the people couldn't understand it at all.
There is no signature or signature on the note, and it is useless to try to make evidence.
Lan Xiang didn't know what to do, and she didn't dare to tell her mother. In addition, this note was written by the third young master, who personally promised that after half a year, if the matter came true, he would personally talk to the queen and let Lan Xiang be his concubine. , carried into the mansion from the corner gate.
Maybe this last one is the key?He also thought that he was only responsible for helping to keep the secret of the ink stick from being discovered by others, and there was no great risk.
Lan Xiang specially observed the prince outside the door for two days, and found that, as the third young master said, this ink is not something that kills people, but just makes people irritated. It should be the third young master who vents his anger for the fourth girl, right?
Such an excuse is nothing more than lying to herself, but Lan Xiang can only hypnotize herself constantly.
Just in time to prepare for the prince's trip these days, the nanny didn't care about Lan Xiang, so she didn't notice the strangeness of her daughter. When she heard that something happened to the prince, she subconsciously looked for Lan Xiang.
When the nanny saw Lan Xiang sneaking out of the prince's room with ink stains on her cuffs, she knew that her guess was right, and her daughter had done something against the master behind her back.
Taking a deep breath, the nanny was a little sad, she pulled Lan Xiang to her own room, as the prince's nanny, she had her own separate room.
After asking about the details, the nanny disposed of Lan Xiang's clothes and hid the ink stick in her luggage. She hoped that no one would find this thing, or that after discovering it, no one would know what Lan Xiang was doing. Take it upon yourself.
The nanny knew that the prince was very affectionate, especially for her. Except for such things, once discovered, she would surely die. She only hoped that the prince would let her sons go for her sake.
It's a pity that no one thought that the Seventh Prince's ability could make everything come to light.
Because he found something, Imperial Physician Chen naturally knew the secret, and he didn't need to send another imperial physician over, he solved the puzzle by himself.
As for the Wumeng ordered by the prince, one has to admit the resourcefulness of Cheng Engong's cousin.
The things in this ink stick are not unusual. They were originally prepared by the students who were taking the exam. They have no other purpose, but to make people excited so that they can have energy to do the questions and read the books.
Therefore, even if the little eunuch could find out the abnormality of this ink, he would not have cared about it. He would only think that Cheng Engong bought it for the prince to learn in order to please the queen.
However, the medicine in Moli already has a refreshing effect. If you drink tea, the effect will not be a matter of one plus one, but sleepless nights.
A day or two is fine, but after three or five days, the prince can't stand it anymore, but the prince didn't think much about it, he just thought it was his first time going out, so he was very excited.
However, I was about to follow my father and emperor to see, if there was a mistake, it would be broken, so I sent someone to the Tai Hospital to ask, what medicine can make people sleep peacefully.
All the doctors are very clear that the medicine is three-point poisonous, and besides, when administering the medicine to the prince, one has to be very careful. The imperial physicians came to check the prince's pulse.
Let the imperial doctor take the pulse, the prince naturally cannot bring people into the study, and besides, no one would have thought that the prince would choose medicinal ink for reading. This is not a joke, the prince does not take the imperial examination.
The medicinal ink was not a harmful thing, the imperial physicians just felt that the prince was a little nervous, and it was not unusual for this young man to be fascinated by something and get nervous.
When you think about it, the prince will soon go to Jiangnan with the emperor, so it's not difficult to understand. Everyone didn't take it seriously, and even Queen Zhou just jokingly said: Son, what should I do if I marry the princess?
Although the imperial physicians felt that the problem was not serious, poor sleep would definitely affect the body. After a few imperial physicians studied it, they would not prescribe any bitter medicine juice, just a little incense to help sleep.
Incense for sleep aids, don’t ask, of course, no dream is the best.
One point for the prince, eh, this effect is not bad, the prince who had slept well, immediately felt refreshed, from here on, the prince cannot do without this dreamless.
The medicinal materials in Wumeng are very expensive, but this little expense is really not worth mentioning to the prince. No, the prince who intends to finish writing the letter and has to read a book for a while is also very busy in broad daylight. Extravagantly ordered Wumeng.
After Chen Yuanjue saw these two things, he said: "Your Majesty, after the medicinal materials in Wumeng are ignited, when they meet the medicinal materials in the medicinal ink, they will synthesize Wushi San."
Emperor Jin Ming was stunned, what is Wushi San?It is an addictive drug synthesized from natural ores such as stalactite, red stone fat, sulfur, amethyst, and white quartz, as well as some Chinese herbal medicines.
This medicine has long been listed as a forbidden drug by various dynasties. It is said that Wushi powder is dry and strong in nature. After taking it, people will feel hot all over. It must be mixed with hot wine, take a cold bath, etc., to distribute the medicinal power.
One carelessness will lead to madness and dementia, but these will only show up when a certain amount is reached, and now, it will only make the prince feel depressed and unable to vent, until he lingers on the bed, especially I like the way of Longyang.
Therefore, some dandies take Wushi powder in private, taking this thing as an aphrodisiac, but fortunately, the prince has not yet broken his body, and usually eats a lot of fruits and vegetables produced in the space, which dissolves a lot.
After the emperor knew what was going on, he was very angry, but, as the top priority, he was more worried about the prince's physical condition.
Chen Yuanping understood the emperor's temper very well, so how dare he betray him at this time?Quickly said: "After inhaling Wushisan, it is generally difficult to quit. Even if you quit, this person will seriously hurt his body, and his temperament is difficult to control."
"However, the prince discovered it in time. There is not too much medicine left in the body. It can be completely removed by taking the decoction for a year and a half."
"If there is still the whole vermilion fruit, after the prince swallows it, he will be able to recover immediately after enduring the numbness in his body."
As soon as he heard that Zhu Guo could solve the problem, the emperor immediately turned Situ Zheng around subconsciously. Sure enough, this little thing forgot his explanation again, and there was a small handful of Zhu Guo in his hand, at least more than ten pieces. Don't be stingy!
The prince was standing next to the emperor, so he could see clearly. While being moved, he immediately blocked Situ Zheng behind him.
With a wave of the emperor's hand, everyone left the room, leaving only the father and son, Chen Yuanpan and the eunuch Gu Mancang.
The problem here has been temporarily resolved, but Queen Zhou over there heard such bad news within half an hour after receiving the news that Situ Zheng was safe.
While rejoicing for his youngest son's ability, at the same time he was itching with hatred.
Assassinating the crown prince is a serious crime of ransacking the family or even implicating the nine clans. However, Chen Engong's mansion is his natal family, and there are mothers and brothers who love him there.
Because of this, the emperor entrusted the matter to her for the sake of their husband and wife's affection.
Empress Zhou closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she directly ordered to give Aunt Liu and her two children a three-zhang white silk, a dagger, and a glass of poisoned wine. You can choose one of the three.
On Wednesday, the son's wives and concubines were sent to Jiaosifang to act as official prostitutes, and their children were sent into slavery.
All the servants in the courtyard of the three were killed on the spot.
Mrs. Zhou fainted on the spot after hearing this, and when she woke up, she tried to stop her. However, the guards obeyed orders, who would give face to an old woman?
Cheng Engong silently watched his concubine and children die unwillingly in front of him, and watched the old mother cry wildly, without the slightest grace in the past.
At this moment, he seemed to be more than ten years old. He wanted to speak, but he seemed to have lost the ability to speak. He wanted to cry, but his eyes seemed to be rusted, and he couldn't shed a single tear.
Seeing the officers and soldiers and his assistant, Cheng Engong left after making sure that the three of them were dead, silently collected the bodies of the three, put them in a thin coffin, and hid them in the suburbs outside the capital.
The old lady's natal family has long been deserted, and just such a niece and daughter died tragically before her eyes, and her beloved grandchildren were forced to commit suicide.
Every night, the old lady dreamed that her niece asked herself: Auntie, you keep saying that you love me, so why don't you let your cousin marry me, and why don't you find me a good wife?
She would dream of the third grandson covering her heart and asking her: Grandma, why didn't you enter the palace and ask for a decree to save me?
I also dreamed that my little granddaughter was covering her mouth and crying loudly, "I don't want to drink poisonous wine, don't give me poisonous wine!"However, dazzling blood flowed out from between the fingers, the dazzling red scaring the old lady into cardiac arrest.
It was just three short days, and the old lady of Cheng En Gong's mansion just went there.
When she was dying, the old lady took Cheng Engong's hand and asked, "Why is she so cruel? Those are her own brothers and sisters. Isn't her son all right?"
As she spoke, she vomited blood, and in the end even the tears shed were tears of blood. The old lady said hoarsely: "I don't ask for anything else, just let my Liu family not be wiped out in front of my old lady. Isn't that okay?"
The old lady did not rest in peace, no matter who it was, she couldn't close her eyes.
In addition to such things, Cheng Engong's mansion, the old lady left, and Cheng Engong only let monks and Taoists enter the mansion to do a water and land dojo for seven days, and did not do anything big, and did not even receive guests.
After the transcendence, Cheng Engong Shangzuo passed the title to his eldest son, and then returned to his hometown with his old mother's coffin, and did not return to Beijing until his death.
After Jin Mingdi received the memorial and wrote it correctly, the eldest son of Cheng Engong was demoted to the third-class uncle, and Cheng Engong's mansion became the earl's mansion, and he understood the matter thoroughly.
Half a month later, the dragon boat arrived at Jinling City. After docking, Situ Zheng felt as if he was stepping on cotton on the soles of his feet. The prince also sighed: "It feels so good to be down-to-earth!"
This Jinling City was the place where the Situ family's dragon rose, and Emperor Jin Ming naturally wanted to come to pay respects.
Officials of Jinling City had been waiting on the pier for a long time. Seeing the appearance of Emperor Jinming, they quickly knelt down and shouted long live. Situ Zheng was surprised that the leader was not the governor and governor, but a man in a fifth-rank official uniform. petty officer.
Situ Zheng pulled Situ Ce's hand and asked, "Brother, the official uniform of the man in front seems to be of the fifth rank, right? How did he stand in front of these senior officials? He is too unruly!"
Just as Emperor Jin Ming was about to reach out to help him up, his body froze, and the kneeling middle-aged man also froze.
The governor and other high officials behind the man felt relieved for a while, and secretly said: Good!well said!Let your Zhen family tremble so much that you don't know your last name because of a holy lady and a noble concubine!
Previously, the officials in Jinling had no choice but to give in to the Zhen family because they were concerned about Concubine Zhen and Mrs. Fengsheng in the palace.
Just like the fact that Zhen Yingjia stood in front of the driver this time, it was obviously against the rules, but as long as the emperor didn't say anything, then everyone could just ignore it as if he didn't know.
One is because he is afraid that Concubine Zhen will be ignored, and the other is because, this time, the Zhen family is picking him up, and the emperor wants to come and see his nanny, Mrs. Fengsheng.
No one reminded that the emperor would ignore the wrong thing because he was the son of his nanny brother, and then rushed to the Zhen family to meet the nanny who was kind to him.
However, when his son said it, at this moment, Emperor Jin Ming's good mood disappeared immediately.
Emperor Jin Ming looked at Zhen Yingjia who was kneeling at his feet. After all, he was thinking about his nanny and didn't send him off on the spot. However, he originally planned to live in the Zhen family, and his thoughts of giving glory to the Zhen family were completely extinguished.
After calling out lightly, Emperor Jin Ming said: "I feel tired after traveling for days, let's drive to the palace."
Zhen Yingjia, who had already clenched her fists because of the humiliation, immediately turned pale.
However, the officials have long been impatient with the Zhen family dominating them. They are nothing more than slaves, even if they have served the emperor, a slave is a slave.
I didn't dare to offend before, but now everyone pushes against the wall, happily clearing the way for the emperor one by one. As for Zhen Yingjia, who is dumbfounded, who has the patience to talk to him?
Zhen Yingjia is only a young man in his twenties at the moment, and he doesn't have the old and spicy city mansion later on. Now he is full of thoughts, what will happen to the Zhen family in the future?
Originally, for this pick-up, the Zhen family borrowed more than [-] taels of silver from the household department, and built their yard beautifully.
They knew Emperor Jin Ming's temperament, and after seeing the garden, they would definitely find a way to get the Zhen family to make up for it. At that time, they would not only get more benefits, but also get a royal garden for nothing.
However, the emperor didn't even take a look at his own garden now, so if he couldn't find it, it naturally didn't exist.
Concubine Zhen Gui, who was carried down by the sedan chair at the back, didn't know what happened here, and she was still talking to her two sons: "I have been away from home for so many years, and I miss your grandmother very much. I heard that, Your cousin is very promising, this time you have to take a good look at it, and you should also take a good look at each other."
After the prince pulled Situzheng into the sedan chair, he explained to Situzheng who the Zhen family was in a low voice.
After listening, Situ Zheng suddenly realized: "That is to say, they are the mother's family of the old witch Zhen Guifei! I am really wise, and I just cleaned up the old witch's family!"
Ever since she was blocked by Concubine Zhen Gui during the Wanshou Festival, Situ Zheng called Concubine Zhen an old witch, and did not agree to call her an old witch until she was instructed by the Queen and the Crown Prince Qian Wan.
The prince covered the corners of his slightly raised mouth with his hands, so as not to show his gloating expression.
In fact, he agrees with Xiao Qi's words in his heart, but he doesn't think Xiao Qi has any wisdom, but praises Xiao Qi's good fate. Anyone who treats him badly will soon be unlucky.
When she arrived at the palace, Concubine Zhen realized that this was not her own mansion. After asking, she realized what had happened, and she almost fainted immediately.
But after all, she was a winner after struggling in the palace. Faced with such a thing, she still has a certain degree of control. She knows that now is definitely not the time to mess up. Today's things must be thought about. Find a way to remove the gap in the emperor's heart, so that he can have a chance to plot.
Concubine Zhen had someone call Zhen Yingjia in, and after Zhen Yingjia saluted, Concubine Zhen helped him up and said: "My good boy, you go back and pick up your grandmother right away, your grandmother knows what to do."
Upon hearing this, Zhen Yingjia hurriedly said, "Yes, Auntie, I'm going to pick up Grandma right away."
As the saying goes, one is not afraid of opponents who are like gods, but teammates who are like pigs. Of course, Concubine Zhen did not hide the matter from the First Prince and the Third Prince. This is Concubine Zhen's own son.
After the two knew what happened, it was really a pile of new and old hatreds that made them burn with anger!The two of them took the little eunuch with them and went to Situ Zheng to reason.
Just at this moment, Emperor Jin Ming was summoning local officials to inquire about political affairs, and the crown prince was studying with him. Situ Zheng was impatient to listen to these things.
Therefore, Situzheng directly asked the little eunuch Yuanbao (the little eunuch he rescued who was originally next to the prince was renamed by him. It is said that he originally wanted to call it braised pork, but was coerced and lured by the prince to become Yuanbao.) Get the fishing tackle and fish in the lotus pond.
However, before he could catch the first fish in his life, he encountered two big troubles, the eldest prince and the third prince.
Yuan Bao was already clever, but when he encountered such a life-and-death catastrophe, he was naturally more cautious when serving Situ Zheng.
Seeing the menacing appearance of the two princes from a distance, he immediately realized that it was not good. After all, it was already an open secret in the palace that the empress's line and Zhen Guifei's line were not in harmony.
Yuan Bao hurriedly knelt down and said loudly: "I have seen His Highness and His Highness the Third Highness, please greet the Highnesses." This is to remind Situ Zheng to leave the lotus pond quickly, it is too dangerous there.
Situ Zheng patted his ass and stood up, just as the third prince rushed over, still shouting: "I let you bully my mother and concubine, spoil our good deeds, go to hell!"
In the eyes of others, this kind of momentum is extremely fast, and there is no time to react, but in Situ Zheng's eyes, it is no different from slow motion.
Situ Zheng, who had been taught by the Seven Blind Man that he could eat anything but not suffer, could still remember to push him behind him the moment he flashed by.
Because Yuan Bao was close and wanted to reach out to pull Situ Zheng, he saw this in a daze. However, to Yuan Bao, Situ Zheng was like a god. Absolutely not.
Situ Zheng didn't expect Yuan Bao to move so fast, so he was staggered by Yuan Bao and fell directly on Yuan Bao. With Yuan Bao as a meat shield, he was naturally fine.
However, the third prince, who wanted to push Situ Zheng into the lotus pond with too much force and was pushed back by Situ Zheng, was not so lucky.
The clothes were already heavy with water, and because the meat was caught on the fishhook, the third prince, who had never suffered before, panicked and even forgot to struggle. He didn't remember to call for help until the sewage was poured into his mouth.
However, the water in the lotus pond is not too deep, but the silt below is not a joke. Seeing that it took only a few moments, the third prince became silent.
The eldest prince was the first to react, and quickly shouted: "Hurry up and save third brother! Hurry up and save people!"
Everyone reacted and jumped down hastily. Fortunately, because the emperor lived here, there would be guards at intervals. When they heard the eldest prince calling for help, they hurried over to help.
When the third prince was rescued, he had already passed out, and the bloody gash on his face was particularly terrifying, and everyone around him was terrified.
Yuan Bao looked at the people around him calmly, but kept Situ Zheng behind him and did not make a sound. While the guards were controlling the water for the third prince, they rushed to notify Emperor Jin Ming.
Soon, Emperor Jin Ming rushed here with his imperial doctor, and at the same time, Concubine Zhen also rushed over. Seeing his son's face covered in blood and his unknown appearance, his eyes were darkened.
After recovering, I heard the imperial physician say: "The third prince passed out only because he was overly frightened and choked on water. After drinking two sets of medicine, he will be fine. However, the wound on His Highness's face is too deep. , and was polluted by river mud, so the wound needs to be washed with strong alcohol, not only will it cause severe pain, but the scar is also difficult to remove."
An ugly scar on the face of a prince means that he is doomed to miss the throne.
Originally, hearing this, the emperor still felt sorry for this son. After all, before Xiao Qi, apart from the prince, the emperor also loved the two princes born to her because of Concubine Zhen Gui.
However, when he heard the ins and outs of the matter, and then Concubine Zhen tried to scratch Xiao Qi's face with a hairpin like crazy, and finally the ingot protecting Xiao Qi was scratched on his arm, Jin Mingdi was furious.
Situ Zheng was supposed to protect his weaknesses, so he just punched Concubine Zhen right now, causing Concubine Zhen to scream, if she hadn't been hugged by the prince from behind, she would have gone up and continued to beat Concubine Zhen.
From this, it can be seen who is the emperor's darling.
Emperor Jin Ming looked at his son whose eyes were red, but he didn't remember that it was his concubine who was knocked down. As for the third son who was still in a coma, he was also ignored.
Hugging Situ Zheng who was unharmed, but like an angry little lion, Emperor Jin Ming said skillfully, "Xiao Qi is obedient, father is there, and father makes decisions for Xiao Qi."
After a long while, Situ Zheng burst into tears and said, "Yuanbao is bleeding, and he was injured to save his son. If Yuanbao hadn't reminded his son and hugged him again, the one who fell would be his son."
In fact, Situ Zheng is fully awake at this moment. The Seventh Blind Man said that when it is time to show weakness, you should never be stingy with those two tears. Everyone in the world sympathizes with the weak.
Also, if you are wronged, you must speak out. If you don’t speak out, who will know that you have been wronged?
Emperor Jin Ming looked at his son who had never cried since he was born, and now he was crying so hard, his heart ached like someone was stabbing his heart with a knife, his eyes became darker.
Emperor Jin Ming felt that although his little Qi was smart, he was too young after all, everything that happened today might frighten him, and the next thing was not suitable to be dealt with in front of Xiao Qi.
Situ Zheng was tired from crying, coupled with Emperor Jin Ming's skillful patting and support, so after seeing that the crown prince had been bandaged for Yuan Bao, he fell asleep sobbing.
Originally, Emperor Jin Ming wanted to hand over the sleeping Situ Zheng to the prince to take him to the bedroom to rest, but Situ Zheng was holding on to the emperor's dragon robe tightly, even when he fell asleep, he didn't let go.
Emperor Jin Ming liked Xiao Qi's dependence on him very much, so after someone handed over the cloak to cover Situ Zheng, he said coldly: "The third child said that Xiao Qi broke Zhen Guifei, who will tell me?" I, what happened to my Xiao Qi, let me know, can my father solve it for him?!"
A gust of cold wind blew by, Zhen Guifei's face became paler than a dead person.
In fact, in normal times, according to Concubine Zhen, she would definitely think of a good way, not only to get the most benefits through things, but also to win the emperor's sympathy.
However, the man lying on the ground with his bloody face was her own son, how could she calm down and plan?
This is a wrong step, wrong step by step. Not only did my own actions not benefit, but it directly put myself into a passive position.
Emperor Jin Ming said to the imperial physicians: "Bring the third prince to Concubine Zhen's courtyard, and heal it as much as possible. It doesn't matter if a boy is left with a scar. It just reminds me what to think and what not to think. "
At this moment, a little eunuch winked at Gu Mancang. Although Gu Mancang was angry that the little eunuch didn't wink, what kind of occasion is it, it's not a particularly important thing, so why can't he wait a little longer?
However, Gu Mancang was originally a rare kind-hearted person, and the little eunuchs under his command treated his eunuchs like children's father-in-law. In addition, he was also afraid that there might be some serious military situation, so he couldn't delay it.
Then Mimi quietly backed out, flicked the whisk and lowered his voice: "You monkey boy, what's the matter? Miscellaneous family can remind you to watch what time it is, there is nothing important, you'd better hold back, otherwise, it will cause trouble." If you are angry with the Holy One, even the miscellaneous family will not be able to protect you!"
The little eunuch wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Eunuch, Mrs. Feng Sheng said that she is coming to talk to the Holy Majesty."
Not only are there no princes and aristocrats here, there are not even high-ranking officials above the second rank. Basically, they are new Jinshi from well-to-do families or the bastards of honorable families.
Cheng Engong knew that these candidates were suitable for his youngest daughter, but he also saw that his eldest daughter did not want to see his youngest daughter, and these candidates were all quite satisfactory.
If Empress Zhou agrees with Miss Thursday a little bit, she will naturally plan a better marriage for her. After all, even if it is to curry favor with His Royal Highness, marrying a vase is not considered an investment. After all, it is just a word from the empress.
This time it was probably Cheng Engong's test of the queen, if the queen had no objection to him, and saw the little sister enter the palace to pay her respects, she would definitely find a good family.
For the future of Cheng'en Gongfu, they even persuaded the biological mother to record the fourth girl under the name of the aunt's mother and marry them as the aunt's daughter. For the face of being a father.
The left is just a question of the size of the dowry, Mrs. Cheng Engong naturally doesn't care about it, but this has invisibly added support to the cousin Wu.
Cheng Engong likes his childhood sweetheart cousin, that's for sure, coupled with his old mother's love for his cousin, so he hopes that Queen Zhou can let go of her prejudices for the sake of the overall situation and the future of Cheng Engong, and fulfill Thursday girl.
However, this list let him know that it was Empress Zhou who was beating him on behalf of her mother, don't think about what's there or what's not, she just didn't speak directly.
After Chen Engong sighed, he gave up. It is better to seriously choose someone among these people for his youngest daughter, and express his opinion to Queen Zhou.
The proud girl on Thursday didn't think so. She could see that this was the suppression of her mother and daughter. Knowing that her father was going to follow Queen Zhou's wishes, she decided to do whatever she wanted.
Faced with the death of his beloved daughter, the concubine washed her face with tears and the old mother complained of illness, Cheng Engong had no choice but to give up, and then handed over the marriage of Miss Thursday to the old lady, but for the old lady's request, remember the fourth girl He did not dare to agree to the matter under the name of his first wife no matter how much he forced him.
Everyone outside knew about this little mess in Cheng Engong's family, and also understood Queen Zhou's attitude, so, facing the old lady's intentions, the wealthy family naturally did not want their son to marry such a woman.
When Empress Zhou heard that when her grandmother was looking for a marriage for the fourth girl, she just smiled lightly and let it go. Anyway, she didn't intend to put much thought into it.
So, things froze here. Fortunately, the girl on Thursday is still young, and she still has time to fiddle around.
However, every time Miss Zhou thought of the handsome and majestic emperor, her heart thumped like a little rabbit.
Miss Zhou was always in a mess after thinking hard, but at this moment, Miss Zhou heard that Empress Zhou was pregnant again.
This made the girl on Thursday feel even more uncomfortable. She secretly cursed Queen Zhou for being old and unscrupulous. She still seduced the emperor at such an age.
Cursing and cursing, Miss Zhou thought that if Empress Zhou died, according to the emperor's love for Empress Zhou, the importance he attached to the prince, and the Zhou family's position as the prince to ensure the family's longevity, they would definitely find a Zhou family. If the girl enters the palace to take care of the prince, then, as the queen's natal sister, she is the best candidate.
While planning, Miss Zhou discovered that Lan Xiang, the daughter of the prince's nanny, who was also the first-class maid beside the prince, had unreasonable thoughts about his own brother, the third son of Cheng'en Gongfu. When people used to use Lan Xiang to go out of the palace to spread the word, it became a good thing secretly.
Therefore, Miss Zhou used this as a threat to force Lan Xiang to help her abort Queen Zhou, and promised that after the matter was completed, she would be raised as the aunt of the third brother's backyard.
One must know that all women in the palace, whether they are concubines, female historians, palace maids or even eunuchs, are all tools used by the emperor to vent his anger.
Lan Xiang broke her body, if she was discovered, she would be promiscuous and disorderly in the harem, and if she failed, she would be accused of punishing the nine clans.
Lan Xiang was afraid, coupled with her admiration for the third son, without the help of the fourth girl, she would never have the opportunity to serve the third son in a fair manner in her life.
So, she was tempted.
When Lan Xiang went to Cheng'en Gong's mansion to deliver things again, the girl on Thursday gave her a pack of medicine powder, but was discovered by Cheng'en Gong's cousin.
After hearing the whole story, Cheng Engong's cousin said: "If the fourth girl wants to succeed, she should not have a baby now, but also help to stabilize the pregnancy."
After that, the cousin sent Lan Xiang back first, and took the red flower back, which made Lan Xiang let out a long sigh.
After several months of Lan Xiang's anxiety, seeing that Queen Zhou was about to give birth, the task given to Lan Xiang by the girl on Thursday came, making her reveal the time of the queen's delivery seemingly unintentionally.
This is much easier than prescribing drugs, and it is much easier to complete this task. Therefore, when Empress Zhou gave birth, she was not caught in the manipulation.
However, as the so-called knowing daughter is more like a mother, Lan Xiang's strangeness, how can she escape her mother's feelings, under pressure, Lan Xiang told the story.
When the prince's nanny heard this, she was so angry that she scolded her daughter for being a murderer, and she wanted to take her out, but she couldn't find an excuse for a while.
Besides, the daughter has already passed away, and besides being the third young master's aunt, that is to say, she has to twist her hair and become a young lady. However, after giving birth to five sons, there is only this one daughter's nanny, how can she be willing to take her life?
What's more, even if the nanny is willing, because Lan Xiang is her daughter, she is already the daughter of Dagong next to the prince. Once she dies suddenly or there is a trouble, it will definitely attract attention. If something is found out, they It's all over.
Fortunately, after this incident, the girl on Thursday didn't look for her again, as if she didn't remember the original promise.
This is undoubtedly good news for the grandma's family. The grandma does not point her daughter to be the third young master's aunt. In the eyes of the grandma, the third young master is just a bastard and has no great ability.
The queen has escaped life and death again, it is really unwise for her family to be related to the aunt's line.
So far, even occasionally going to Cheng'en Gong's mansion to pay the master's peace, the nanny would not ask Lan Xiang to go, but unfortunately, as a palace maid, there is no special situation or the master refers to marriage, so she can only suffer. to 25 years old.
The nanny inevitably attracted people's attention. While looking for people, she thought, after these two years, as soon as Lan Xiang reached Ji, she immediately lost her old face and begged the prince for mercy to get Lan Xiang out.
Three years was enough for the nanny to relax her vigilance. Who knew that the personal eunuch next to the prince went out of the palace to work in Cheng'en Gong's mansion.
The little eunuch recognized that the boy belonged to Duke Cheng'en's mansion, so he asked, "What else is there?"
The servant laughed and said: "Elder-in-law was in a hurry just now, and someone from the mansion left a box and didn't put it in. Here is a high-quality jade inkstone found in the mansion. The master found it by accident. It is said that it is a good thing."
The little eunuch carefully opened the box and saw that it was indeed a high-quality jade inkstone, with matching ink sticks beside it, and nothing else.
He is a young eunuch, no matter how clever he is, it is impossible to see the mystery of this thing, and since the thing came from Cheng'en Gong's mansion, he lost his vigilance.
In addition, the servant secretly stuffed a purse for the young eunuch, and the young eunuch squeezed it with his hands, understanding it, and naturally he was even more happy. Seeing the servant's hesitant to speak, the little eunuch asked: "Is there anything else?"
The boy scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Elder-in-law, can you help me give this to Miss Lanxiang next to His Highness the Prince?" He took out a small bag as he spoke.
The eunuch opened the package, and there were some scattered silver and small denomination banknotes inside. At first glance, it was a gift from the master, and there was also an exquisitely crafted hairpin.
He looked up at the pale boy, and jokingly said, "Miss Lan Xiang is someone who must be used by His Highness the Crown Prince. You look like a villain, but you don't have a chance~"
The boy lowered his head, and then said: "My mother has a good relationship with her mother."
The little eunuch shook his head, knowing that this kid was probably wasting his troubles in vain, even if the crown prince didn't take Lan Xiang into the house, he wouldn't be able to marry her to the servant of the government.
However, thinking of the two rewards I got today, plus there is nothing taboo here, I smiled and said: "Okay, the miscellaneous family will help you once, if you can really hug the beauty back, you have to ask Everyone is drinking."
Only then did the boy breathe a sigh of relief, nodded and said: "By my father-in-law's auspicious words, if the little one really has such good fortune, the little one will definitely respect the father-in-law."
How did the little eunuch know that this action not only brought something that shouldn't be brought into the palace, but also helped to convey the message that there was a mystery in the hairpin.
The inside of the hairpin was hollow, and it was a note from Cheng Engong's cousin threatening to use Lan Xiang, but, if it was specious, other than the two of them, the rest of the people couldn't understand it at all.
There is no signature or signature on the note, and it is useless to try to make evidence.
Lan Xiang didn't know what to do, and she didn't dare to tell her mother. In addition, this note was written by the third young master, who personally promised that after half a year, if the matter came true, he would personally talk to the queen and let Lan Xiang be his concubine. , carried into the mansion from the corner gate.
Maybe this last one is the key?He also thought that he was only responsible for helping to keep the secret of the ink stick from being discovered by others, and there was no great risk.
Lan Xiang specially observed the prince outside the door for two days, and found that, as the third young master said, this ink is not something that kills people, but just makes people irritated. It should be the third young master who vents his anger for the fourth girl, right?
Such an excuse is nothing more than lying to herself, but Lan Xiang can only hypnotize herself constantly.
Just in time to prepare for the prince's trip these days, the nanny didn't care about Lan Xiang, so she didn't notice the strangeness of her daughter. When she heard that something happened to the prince, she subconsciously looked for Lan Xiang.
When the nanny saw Lan Xiang sneaking out of the prince's room with ink stains on her cuffs, she knew that her guess was right, and her daughter had done something against the master behind her back.
Taking a deep breath, the nanny was a little sad, she pulled Lan Xiang to her own room, as the prince's nanny, she had her own separate room.
After asking about the details, the nanny disposed of Lan Xiang's clothes and hid the ink stick in her luggage. She hoped that no one would find this thing, or that after discovering it, no one would know what Lan Xiang was doing. Take it upon yourself.
The nanny knew that the prince was very affectionate, especially for her. Except for such things, once discovered, she would surely die. She only hoped that the prince would let her sons go for her sake.
It's a pity that no one thought that the Seventh Prince's ability could make everything come to light.
Because he found something, Imperial Physician Chen naturally knew the secret, and he didn't need to send another imperial physician over, he solved the puzzle by himself.
As for the Wumeng ordered by the prince, one has to admit the resourcefulness of Cheng Engong's cousin.
The things in this ink stick are not unusual. They were originally prepared by the students who were taking the exam. They have no other purpose, but to make people excited so that they can have energy to do the questions and read the books.
Therefore, even if the little eunuch could find out the abnormality of this ink, he would not have cared about it. He would only think that Cheng Engong bought it for the prince to learn in order to please the queen.
However, the medicine in Moli already has a refreshing effect. If you drink tea, the effect will not be a matter of one plus one, but sleepless nights.
A day or two is fine, but after three or five days, the prince can't stand it anymore, but the prince didn't think much about it, he just thought it was his first time going out, so he was very excited.
However, I was about to follow my father and emperor to see, if there was a mistake, it would be broken, so I sent someone to the Tai Hospital to ask, what medicine can make people sleep peacefully.
All the doctors are very clear that the medicine is three-point poisonous, and besides, when administering the medicine to the prince, one has to be very careful. The imperial physicians came to check the prince's pulse.
Let the imperial doctor take the pulse, the prince naturally cannot bring people into the study, and besides, no one would have thought that the prince would choose medicinal ink for reading. This is not a joke, the prince does not take the imperial examination.
The medicinal ink was not a harmful thing, the imperial physicians just felt that the prince was a little nervous, and it was not unusual for this young man to be fascinated by something and get nervous.
When you think about it, the prince will soon go to Jiangnan with the emperor, so it's not difficult to understand. Everyone didn't take it seriously, and even Queen Zhou just jokingly said: Son, what should I do if I marry the princess?
Although the imperial physicians felt that the problem was not serious, poor sleep would definitely affect the body. After a few imperial physicians studied it, they would not prescribe any bitter medicine juice, just a little incense to help sleep.
Incense for sleep aids, don’t ask, of course, no dream is the best.
One point for the prince, eh, this effect is not bad, the prince who had slept well, immediately felt refreshed, from here on, the prince cannot do without this dreamless.
The medicinal materials in Wumeng are very expensive, but this little expense is really not worth mentioning to the prince. No, the prince who intends to finish writing the letter and has to read a book for a while is also very busy in broad daylight. Extravagantly ordered Wumeng.
After Chen Yuanjue saw these two things, he said: "Your Majesty, after the medicinal materials in Wumeng are ignited, when they meet the medicinal materials in the medicinal ink, they will synthesize Wushi San."
Emperor Jin Ming was stunned, what is Wushi San?It is an addictive drug synthesized from natural ores such as stalactite, red stone fat, sulfur, amethyst, and white quartz, as well as some Chinese herbal medicines.
This medicine has long been listed as a forbidden drug by various dynasties. It is said that Wushi powder is dry and strong in nature. After taking it, people will feel hot all over. It must be mixed with hot wine, take a cold bath, etc., to distribute the medicinal power.
One carelessness will lead to madness and dementia, but these will only show up when a certain amount is reached, and now, it will only make the prince feel depressed and unable to vent, until he lingers on the bed, especially I like the way of Longyang.
Therefore, some dandies take Wushi powder in private, taking this thing as an aphrodisiac, but fortunately, the prince has not yet broken his body, and usually eats a lot of fruits and vegetables produced in the space, which dissolves a lot.
After the emperor knew what was going on, he was very angry, but, as the top priority, he was more worried about the prince's physical condition.
Chen Yuanping understood the emperor's temper very well, so how dare he betray him at this time?Quickly said: "After inhaling Wushisan, it is generally difficult to quit. Even if you quit, this person will seriously hurt his body, and his temperament is difficult to control."
"However, the prince discovered it in time. There is not too much medicine left in the body. It can be completely removed by taking the decoction for a year and a half."
"If there is still the whole vermilion fruit, after the prince swallows it, he will be able to recover immediately after enduring the numbness in his body."
As soon as he heard that Zhu Guo could solve the problem, the emperor immediately turned Situ Zheng around subconsciously. Sure enough, this little thing forgot his explanation again, and there was a small handful of Zhu Guo in his hand, at least more than ten pieces. Don't be stingy!
The prince was standing next to the emperor, so he could see clearly. While being moved, he immediately blocked Situ Zheng behind him.
With a wave of the emperor's hand, everyone left the room, leaving only the father and son, Chen Yuanpan and the eunuch Gu Mancang.
The problem here has been temporarily resolved, but Queen Zhou over there heard such bad news within half an hour after receiving the news that Situ Zheng was safe.
While rejoicing for his youngest son's ability, at the same time he was itching with hatred.
Assassinating the crown prince is a serious crime of ransacking the family or even implicating the nine clans. However, Chen Engong's mansion is his natal family, and there are mothers and brothers who love him there.
Because of this, the emperor entrusted the matter to her for the sake of their husband and wife's affection.
Empress Zhou closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she directly ordered to give Aunt Liu and her two children a three-zhang white silk, a dagger, and a glass of poisoned wine. You can choose one of the three.
On Wednesday, the son's wives and concubines were sent to Jiaosifang to act as official prostitutes, and their children were sent into slavery.
All the servants in the courtyard of the three were killed on the spot.
Mrs. Zhou fainted on the spot after hearing this, and when she woke up, she tried to stop her. However, the guards obeyed orders, who would give face to an old woman?
Cheng Engong silently watched his concubine and children die unwillingly in front of him, and watched the old mother cry wildly, without the slightest grace in the past.
At this moment, he seemed to be more than ten years old. He wanted to speak, but he seemed to have lost the ability to speak. He wanted to cry, but his eyes seemed to be rusted, and he couldn't shed a single tear.
Seeing the officers and soldiers and his assistant, Cheng Engong left after making sure that the three of them were dead, silently collected the bodies of the three, put them in a thin coffin, and hid them in the suburbs outside the capital.
The old lady's natal family has long been deserted, and just such a niece and daughter died tragically before her eyes, and her beloved grandchildren were forced to commit suicide.
Every night, the old lady dreamed that her niece asked herself: Auntie, you keep saying that you love me, so why don't you let your cousin marry me, and why don't you find me a good wife?
She would dream of the third grandson covering her heart and asking her: Grandma, why didn't you enter the palace and ask for a decree to save me?
I also dreamed that my little granddaughter was covering her mouth and crying loudly, "I don't want to drink poisonous wine, don't give me poisonous wine!"However, dazzling blood flowed out from between the fingers, the dazzling red scaring the old lady into cardiac arrest.
It was just three short days, and the old lady of Cheng En Gong's mansion just went there.
When she was dying, the old lady took Cheng Engong's hand and asked, "Why is she so cruel? Those are her own brothers and sisters. Isn't her son all right?"
As she spoke, she vomited blood, and in the end even the tears shed were tears of blood. The old lady said hoarsely: "I don't ask for anything else, just let my Liu family not be wiped out in front of my old lady. Isn't that okay?"
The old lady did not rest in peace, no matter who it was, she couldn't close her eyes.
In addition to such things, Cheng Engong's mansion, the old lady left, and Cheng Engong only let monks and Taoists enter the mansion to do a water and land dojo for seven days, and did not do anything big, and did not even receive guests.
After the transcendence, Cheng Engong Shangzuo passed the title to his eldest son, and then returned to his hometown with his old mother's coffin, and did not return to Beijing until his death.
After Jin Mingdi received the memorial and wrote it correctly, the eldest son of Cheng Engong was demoted to the third-class uncle, and Cheng Engong's mansion became the earl's mansion, and he understood the matter thoroughly.
Half a month later, the dragon boat arrived at Jinling City. After docking, Situ Zheng felt as if he was stepping on cotton on the soles of his feet. The prince also sighed: "It feels so good to be down-to-earth!"
This Jinling City was the place where the Situ family's dragon rose, and Emperor Jin Ming naturally wanted to come to pay respects.
Officials of Jinling City had been waiting on the pier for a long time. Seeing the appearance of Emperor Jinming, they quickly knelt down and shouted long live. Situ Zheng was surprised that the leader was not the governor and governor, but a man in a fifth-rank official uniform. petty officer.
Situ Zheng pulled Situ Ce's hand and asked, "Brother, the official uniform of the man in front seems to be of the fifth rank, right? How did he stand in front of these senior officials? He is too unruly!"
Just as Emperor Jin Ming was about to reach out to help him up, his body froze, and the kneeling middle-aged man also froze.
The governor and other high officials behind the man felt relieved for a while, and secretly said: Good!well said!Let your Zhen family tremble so much that you don't know your last name because of a holy lady and a noble concubine!
Previously, the officials in Jinling had no choice but to give in to the Zhen family because they were concerned about Concubine Zhen and Mrs. Fengsheng in the palace.
Just like the fact that Zhen Yingjia stood in front of the driver this time, it was obviously against the rules, but as long as the emperor didn't say anything, then everyone could just ignore it as if he didn't know.
One is because he is afraid that Concubine Zhen will be ignored, and the other is because, this time, the Zhen family is picking him up, and the emperor wants to come and see his nanny, Mrs. Fengsheng.
No one reminded that the emperor would ignore the wrong thing because he was the son of his nanny brother, and then rushed to the Zhen family to meet the nanny who was kind to him.
However, when his son said it, at this moment, Emperor Jin Ming's good mood disappeared immediately.
Emperor Jin Ming looked at Zhen Yingjia who was kneeling at his feet. After all, he was thinking about his nanny and didn't send him off on the spot. However, he originally planned to live in the Zhen family, and his thoughts of giving glory to the Zhen family were completely extinguished.
After calling out lightly, Emperor Jin Ming said: "I feel tired after traveling for days, let's drive to the palace."
Zhen Yingjia, who had already clenched her fists because of the humiliation, immediately turned pale.
However, the officials have long been impatient with the Zhen family dominating them. They are nothing more than slaves, even if they have served the emperor, a slave is a slave.
I didn't dare to offend before, but now everyone pushes against the wall, happily clearing the way for the emperor one by one. As for Zhen Yingjia, who is dumbfounded, who has the patience to talk to him?
Zhen Yingjia is only a young man in his twenties at the moment, and he doesn't have the old and spicy city mansion later on. Now he is full of thoughts, what will happen to the Zhen family in the future?
Originally, for this pick-up, the Zhen family borrowed more than [-] taels of silver from the household department, and built their yard beautifully.
They knew Emperor Jin Ming's temperament, and after seeing the garden, they would definitely find a way to get the Zhen family to make up for it. At that time, they would not only get more benefits, but also get a royal garden for nothing.
However, the emperor didn't even take a look at his own garden now, so if he couldn't find it, it naturally didn't exist.
Concubine Zhen Gui, who was carried down by the sedan chair at the back, didn't know what happened here, and she was still talking to her two sons: "I have been away from home for so many years, and I miss your grandmother very much. I heard that, Your cousin is very promising, this time you have to take a good look at it, and you should also take a good look at each other."
After the prince pulled Situzheng into the sedan chair, he explained to Situzheng who the Zhen family was in a low voice.
After listening, Situ Zheng suddenly realized: "That is to say, they are the mother's family of the old witch Zhen Guifei! I am really wise, and I just cleaned up the old witch's family!"
Ever since she was blocked by Concubine Zhen Gui during the Wanshou Festival, Situ Zheng called Concubine Zhen an old witch, and did not agree to call her an old witch until she was instructed by the Queen and the Crown Prince Qian Wan.
The prince covered the corners of his slightly raised mouth with his hands, so as not to show his gloating expression.
In fact, he agrees with Xiao Qi's words in his heart, but he doesn't think Xiao Qi has any wisdom, but praises Xiao Qi's good fate. Anyone who treats him badly will soon be unlucky.
When she arrived at the palace, Concubine Zhen realized that this was not her own mansion. After asking, she realized what had happened, and she almost fainted immediately.
But after all, she was a winner after struggling in the palace. Faced with such a thing, she still has a certain degree of control. She knows that now is definitely not the time to mess up. Today's things must be thought about. Find a way to remove the gap in the emperor's heart, so that he can have a chance to plot.
Concubine Zhen had someone call Zhen Yingjia in, and after Zhen Yingjia saluted, Concubine Zhen helped him up and said: "My good boy, you go back and pick up your grandmother right away, your grandmother knows what to do."
Upon hearing this, Zhen Yingjia hurriedly said, "Yes, Auntie, I'm going to pick up Grandma right away."
As the saying goes, one is not afraid of opponents who are like gods, but teammates who are like pigs. Of course, Concubine Zhen did not hide the matter from the First Prince and the Third Prince. This is Concubine Zhen's own son.
After the two knew what happened, it was really a pile of new and old hatreds that made them burn with anger!The two of them took the little eunuch with them and went to Situ Zheng to reason.
Just at this moment, Emperor Jin Ming was summoning local officials to inquire about political affairs, and the crown prince was studying with him. Situ Zheng was impatient to listen to these things.
Therefore, Situzheng directly asked the little eunuch Yuanbao (the little eunuch he rescued who was originally next to the prince was renamed by him. It is said that he originally wanted to call it braised pork, but was coerced and lured by the prince to become Yuanbao.) Get the fishing tackle and fish in the lotus pond.
However, before he could catch the first fish in his life, he encountered two big troubles, the eldest prince and the third prince.
Yuan Bao was already clever, but when he encountered such a life-and-death catastrophe, he was naturally more cautious when serving Situ Zheng.
Seeing the menacing appearance of the two princes from a distance, he immediately realized that it was not good. After all, it was already an open secret in the palace that the empress's line and Zhen Guifei's line were not in harmony.
Yuan Bao hurriedly knelt down and said loudly: "I have seen His Highness and His Highness the Third Highness, please greet the Highnesses." This is to remind Situ Zheng to leave the lotus pond quickly, it is too dangerous there.
Situ Zheng patted his ass and stood up, just as the third prince rushed over, still shouting: "I let you bully my mother and concubine, spoil our good deeds, go to hell!"
In the eyes of others, this kind of momentum is extremely fast, and there is no time to react, but in Situ Zheng's eyes, it is no different from slow motion.
Situ Zheng, who had been taught by the Seven Blind Man that he could eat anything but not suffer, could still remember to push him behind him the moment he flashed by.
Because Yuan Bao was close and wanted to reach out to pull Situ Zheng, he saw this in a daze. However, to Yuan Bao, Situ Zheng was like a god. Absolutely not.
Situ Zheng didn't expect Yuan Bao to move so fast, so he was staggered by Yuan Bao and fell directly on Yuan Bao. With Yuan Bao as a meat shield, he was naturally fine.
However, the third prince, who wanted to push Situ Zheng into the lotus pond with too much force and was pushed back by Situ Zheng, was not so lucky.
The clothes were already heavy with water, and because the meat was caught on the fishhook, the third prince, who had never suffered before, panicked and even forgot to struggle. He didn't remember to call for help until the sewage was poured into his mouth.
However, the water in the lotus pond is not too deep, but the silt below is not a joke. Seeing that it took only a few moments, the third prince became silent.
The eldest prince was the first to react, and quickly shouted: "Hurry up and save third brother! Hurry up and save people!"
Everyone reacted and jumped down hastily. Fortunately, because the emperor lived here, there would be guards at intervals. When they heard the eldest prince calling for help, they hurried over to help.
When the third prince was rescued, he had already passed out, and the bloody gash on his face was particularly terrifying, and everyone around him was terrified.
Yuan Bao looked at the people around him calmly, but kept Situ Zheng behind him and did not make a sound. While the guards were controlling the water for the third prince, they rushed to notify Emperor Jin Ming.
Soon, Emperor Jin Ming rushed here with his imperial doctor, and at the same time, Concubine Zhen also rushed over. Seeing his son's face covered in blood and his unknown appearance, his eyes were darkened.
After recovering, I heard the imperial physician say: "The third prince passed out only because he was overly frightened and choked on water. After drinking two sets of medicine, he will be fine. However, the wound on His Highness's face is too deep. , and was polluted by river mud, so the wound needs to be washed with strong alcohol, not only will it cause severe pain, but the scar is also difficult to remove."
An ugly scar on the face of a prince means that he is doomed to miss the throne.
Originally, hearing this, the emperor still felt sorry for this son. After all, before Xiao Qi, apart from the prince, the emperor also loved the two princes born to her because of Concubine Zhen Gui.
However, when he heard the ins and outs of the matter, and then Concubine Zhen tried to scratch Xiao Qi's face with a hairpin like crazy, and finally the ingot protecting Xiao Qi was scratched on his arm, Jin Mingdi was furious.
Situ Zheng was supposed to protect his weaknesses, so he just punched Concubine Zhen right now, causing Concubine Zhen to scream, if she hadn't been hugged by the prince from behind, she would have gone up and continued to beat Concubine Zhen.
From this, it can be seen who is the emperor's darling.
Emperor Jin Ming looked at his son whose eyes were red, but he didn't remember that it was his concubine who was knocked down. As for the third son who was still in a coma, he was also ignored.
Hugging Situ Zheng who was unharmed, but like an angry little lion, Emperor Jin Ming said skillfully, "Xiao Qi is obedient, father is there, and father makes decisions for Xiao Qi."
After a long while, Situ Zheng burst into tears and said, "Yuanbao is bleeding, and he was injured to save his son. If Yuanbao hadn't reminded his son and hugged him again, the one who fell would be his son."
In fact, Situ Zheng is fully awake at this moment. The Seventh Blind Man said that when it is time to show weakness, you should never be stingy with those two tears. Everyone in the world sympathizes with the weak.
Also, if you are wronged, you must speak out. If you don’t speak out, who will know that you have been wronged?
Emperor Jin Ming looked at his son who had never cried since he was born, and now he was crying so hard, his heart ached like someone was stabbing his heart with a knife, his eyes became darker.
Emperor Jin Ming felt that although his little Qi was smart, he was too young after all, everything that happened today might frighten him, and the next thing was not suitable to be dealt with in front of Xiao Qi.
Situ Zheng was tired from crying, coupled with Emperor Jin Ming's skillful patting and support, so after seeing that the crown prince had been bandaged for Yuan Bao, he fell asleep sobbing.
Originally, Emperor Jin Ming wanted to hand over the sleeping Situ Zheng to the prince to take him to the bedroom to rest, but Situ Zheng was holding on to the emperor's dragon robe tightly, even when he fell asleep, he didn't let go.
Emperor Jin Ming liked Xiao Qi's dependence on him very much, so after someone handed over the cloak to cover Situ Zheng, he said coldly: "The third child said that Xiao Qi broke Zhen Guifei, who will tell me?" I, what happened to my Xiao Qi, let me know, can my father solve it for him?!"
A gust of cold wind blew by, Zhen Guifei's face became paler than a dead person.
In fact, in normal times, according to Concubine Zhen, she would definitely think of a good way, not only to get the most benefits through things, but also to win the emperor's sympathy.
However, the man lying on the ground with his bloody face was her own son, how could she calm down and plan?
This is a wrong step, wrong step by step. Not only did my own actions not benefit, but it directly put myself into a passive position.
Emperor Jin Ming said to the imperial physicians: "Bring the third prince to Concubine Zhen's courtyard, and heal it as much as possible. It doesn't matter if a boy is left with a scar. It just reminds me what to think and what not to think. "
At this moment, a little eunuch winked at Gu Mancang. Although Gu Mancang was angry that the little eunuch didn't wink, what kind of occasion is it, it's not a particularly important thing, so why can't he wait a little longer?
However, Gu Mancang was originally a rare kind-hearted person, and the little eunuchs under his command treated his eunuchs like children's father-in-law. In addition, he was also afraid that there might be some serious military situation, so he couldn't delay it.
Then Mimi quietly backed out, flicked the whisk and lowered his voice: "You monkey boy, what's the matter? Miscellaneous family can remind you to watch what time it is, there is nothing important, you'd better hold back, otherwise, it will cause trouble." If you are angry with the Holy One, even the miscellaneous family will not be able to protect you!"
The little eunuch wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "Eunuch, Mrs. Feng Sheng said that she is coming to talk to the Holy Majesty."
