A handsome face of a chamberlain flashed through Zhu Yun's mind, and he smiled casually: "This Eunuch Feng has been working abroad. Why did he come to the palace today?"
Who among the kings of Qin, Zhao, and Han did not keep secret guards?
Only the prince himself and his confidant Eunuch Yang know how many spies there are under the prince's command. Even Zhu Yun doesn't know very well. However, one thing is still obvious. Eunuch Yang's adopted son Feng San'er is quite like the prince.
Trust and reuse. He is nowhere to be seen on weekdays, but appears occasionally, just running errands around the prince.
It can also be seen that Eunuch Yang devoted himself to cultivating and supporting his adopted son.
A hint of sadness and complexity flashed in the prince's eyes, and he said calmly: "I have an errand to give to Feng Saner. Please step back first!"
Zhu Yun hadn't seen his wife and children for half a day, and he was thinking about it very much. He responded with a smile and quickly left.
As soon as I left the study, I saw Eunuch Yang and his adopted son Feng Saner.
"I have met His Highness the Grand Sun." Eunuch Feng saluted neatly.
Zhu Yun said casually: "No courtesy, stay calm."
As Zhu Yun, he would not say anything to a young chamberlain, so he quickly crossed over and hurried back to the dormitory. The sound of a baby crying reached his ears.
Yuan Min, a first-time mother, was busy coaxing a pair of children. She had been doing postpartum confinement, and the nannies were taking care of the children. After the full month, she would take the children with her, hugging one and then another, until her back was sore.
Back pain.
At this time, the two children were crying together. They were all very close to their hearts, and Yuan Min couldn't bear to let go of either of them. She left one with her left hand and one with her right hand. She was almost crying out of anxiety.
Zhu Yun laughed dumbly, strode over, and took the small red package from Yuan Min's hand: "Why don't you ask the wet nurse to come in?"
Yuan Min's hand suddenly felt light, and she suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a helpless smile: "The child is always by the nanny's side, and he is no longer close to me, my biological mother."
Zhu Yun held his daughter in his arms and patted her, and said with a smile: "That's not true. When my mother-in-law gave birth to me, she had a dystocia, and she lay on the bed for several months before she finally got to bed. After that, she carefully raised her for a year.
After a lot of time, I regained my strength. I have always been taken care of by my wet nurse, and I am not the closest to my mother and concubine."
"In the future, you will have to take care of the trivial affairs of the East Palace and raise a pair of children. It will be too busy for you. Don't wear yourself out. Let the wet nurses hold the children!"
yes!
Not only is she the mother-in-law of a pair of children, but she is also a grandson-in-law. With a mother-in-law like the crown prince who does nothing, she, as the daughter-in-law, has to shoulder important responsibilities.
Yuan Min sighed and called the two wet nurses to come in.
The wet nurse carried the two wailing children down.
The bedroom was finally quiet.
Zhu Yun hugged Yuan Min and wiped the sweat on her forehead distressedly: "Look at how tired you are. Don't torment yourself like this in the future."
Yuan Min hummed and put her head close to Zhu Yun's chest. Zhu Yun was busy during the day, and only at night did the couple have time to talk alone.
"Early tomorrow morning, I will go to Cining Palace to pay my respects, and then go to Ganquan Palace to visit the imperial concubine." Yuan Min said softly.
The Crown Princess had a falling out with Concubine Cao a month ago. With the Crown Princess's temper, she would not visit Ganquan Palace, let alone take the initiative to repair the relationship with Concubine Cao.
Originally it was Concubine Cao who was in the wrong, but if this continues, it will become a discourtesy for the East Palace.
The Crown Princess can be willful, but Yuan Min, the grandson concubine, has to swallow her frustration and take the initiative to go to Ganquan Palace.
In fact, Yuan Min hated Concubine Cao very much in her heart. Concubine Cao was really tough on her that day, and the red marks on her son's tender face did not fade until the next day.
There was a hint of guilt in Zhu Yun's voice: "Most of my concubine's temper is caused by my father. As a son, I can't do anything about it. I have to work hard for you."
Yuan Min also felt helpless: "It's not entirely my uncle's fault. My aunt has been spoiled by her grandfather and uncles since she was a child. When things get really bad, the whole Yuan family will have to bear half of the responsibility."
In short, before the princess turned seventeen, she was loved by her father and brothers, and after she got married, she was pampered by her husband, and she also had a filial and considerate son. She was not afraid of getting into trouble!
This is the real winner in life.
…
In the prince's study.
Eunuch Feng bowed politely.
His Royal Highness the Prince stared at Eunuch Feng in silence, with a complex and sighing mood that only Eunuch Yang could understand.
Eunuch Yang coughed and whispered: "Your Highness, San'er has taken half a year off, so it's time to send her some errands."
Whatever.
After the war in Jizhou is over, the people still have to be appeased. It will take at least a few months.
In the past few months, I will let Feng Shaojun work as an errand in the East Palace for the time being. When Shen You comes back, the young couple will get together, and maybe they will be happy soon. The woman is pregnant and needs to have a baby, so she will naturally stay in the inner house.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince nodded slightly: "Just let San'er run errands with you as an errand."
Relief flashed in Eunuch Yang's eyes, and he winked at Feng Shaojun.
Feng Shaojun smiled and opened his mouth: "I thank Your Highness for your kindness." He kowtowed three times and stood up neatly.
His Highness the Prince glanced briefly and suddenly asked: "Is there any letter from Jizhou?"
So, should we ask Feng Saner or Feng Shaojun?
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince indeed paid special attention to Shen You.
Feng Shaojun thought of lightning in his mind and responded respectfully: "I have indeed received a letter. Guard Shen has just entered the camp, and there is a lot to adapt to and learn."
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince did not ask any more questions and said to Eunuch Yang: "I have been told by Gu to invite several subordinate officials to come and discuss with them anything I have to do."
Eunuch Yang responded and stepped back.
Feng Shaojun naturally followed Eunuch Yang out and ran errands behind his adoptive father to spread the news.
The prince and his officials were discussing matters, and Eunuch Yang stood aside. Feng Shaojun, thanks to Eunuch Yang's favor, was able to stand in the corner. She lowered her head slightly, but her ears stood erect, taking in everything everyone said.
The prince summoned his officials to discuss the war in Jizhou.
Jizhou is far away from the capital, so it takes five days to send a message to the capital quickly. In other words, the great victory in Jizhou that we know today actually happened five days ago.
The delay and lag in the battle report are also helpless. Therefore, there is a saying that "the generals will not accept military orders from abroad." Everything is waiting for the court's orders, and the corpses on the battlefield will be cold.
The instruction given by the imperial court to General He was to suppress the civil unrest as soon as possible. General He made the final decision on how to lead the troops and fight the war.
It was not until the time of the Emperor that His Highness the Crown Prince settled down to rest.
After Eunuch Yang put the prince to bed, he led Feng Shaojun back to his residence.
As the chief chamberlain of the prince, Eunuch Yang has a small courtyard in the East Palace. It is slightly smaller than the residence in Prince Yan's Mansion. However, there are still six or seven rooms. The several chamberlains who serve Eunuch Yang each live in one room.
Eunuch Yang pointed to an empty house: "San'er, this house is the closest to our home. You can stay here."
