Concubines like Li Shufei and others who had followed Lao Zhu for some years knew even more clearly that in fact what Concubine Da Ding said was correct. In the eyes of the emperor, only Queen Ma and the prince were his real family members, and they were just concubines used by the royal family to entertain the emperor.
Accessories of loose leaves.
They did not enter the Zhu family at all. Although they could enjoy the glory and wealth, a concubine was a concubine and they could never surpass their mistress. The children they gave birth to were only concubines and could not surpass the prince.
There are more than ten princes, big and small, and together they can't enjoy half of the resources of the prince. Even the eldest prince received a noble title thanks to the prince's gift. There are still many other naked princes.
As for the Crown Prince, when he was still the crown prince of Wu, he had close relatives such as Song Lian, Quanxu, Lan Yu, Muying, etc. He had learned to handle official affairs from Li Shanchang, Liu Bowen and others since he was a child. Needless to say, after the founding of the country, even they
All the women in the harem have heard that the Crown Prince’s East Palace team is unprecedentedly strong, and that is the Emperor’s own team that founded the country.
Thinking of this, the faces of the concubines all turned dark, and they were driven back after a wasted trip without being able to see each other. Only when something goes wrong can you find out whether they regard you as a family member...
When we returned to the harem together and were about to disperse, Concubine Li Shu said softly: "We should also let the princes go over to say hello. It's the reason why sons should not go and wait on me if I'm not feeling well, otherwise it won't be good if word spreads."
Concubine Da Ding immediately answered: "Sister Li is right. Your Majesty doesn't want us to cause trouble, so how can we not let our sons fulfill their filial piety?"
Concubine Hu Shun, the youngest, smiled sweetly and said: "That's right. I heard that His Majesty made those officials angry. The little princes went there just to make His Majesty happy."
Concubine Sun Xian sneered: "Princes are the heirs of the Holy Emperor, aren't princesses the same? When did filial piety become divided into men and women?"
Concubine Zheng Ding echoed: "What Sister Sun said is that after all, the princess is not as valuable as the prince. Now this has become apparent."
After that, there was another round of sarcasm. Concubine Li Shu, who first raised the topic, watched from the other side. Concubine Da Ding gave birth to two princes but no princess, so she naturally would not let this opportunity pass by. And concubines who gave birth to princesses were not afraid either. With the prince,
Now, what will happen if you give birth to a prince? Is it possible that you can make a comeback?
After all, the only ones who can control the princesses in the future are their father and eldest brother. The rest of them have barely met each other, so who is afraid of whom? However, the women in the palace are not simple. Concubine Da Ding suddenly saw
He glanced at Concubine Li Shu, and then walked straight towards his palace.
The rest of the people also reacted and hurriedly said goodbye. However, Concubine Li Shu, who stayed there, still looked gentle and virtuous. She raised her sleeves to cover the dazzling sunlight and asked casually: "Have the King of Jin and the King of Chu passed?"
The eunuch on the side bowed and replied: "By that time, the two masters will probably have arrived at the Jinshen Hall, but I am a little confused. Why should I remind others about this matter?"
Concubine Li Shu walked slowly towards her palace: "If I didn't tell them, they wouldn't have thought of it? It's just a matter of time, not to mention they are already slow. Whether the Holy Emperor will see you again is another matter."
………………
Chang Luohua in the Jinshen Palace was asking about Zhu Yuanzhang's health with concern. Liu Jin would not inform the concubines, but how could he stop his own crown princess? He saw him from a distance and went in to report it happily, for fear that the crown prince would be exposed under the sun.
Standing for a long time.
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't say that he was faking in front of his daughter-in-law, so he could only comfort him gently: "We're fine. It's just that the heat was so hot that I accidentally fell asleep. Don't mess around with such trivial matters in the future. Everything is your own responsibility."
Your body is the most important thing, and our old Zhu family depends on you to flourish."
Chang Luohua responded with gentle eyebrows: "I understand, but my father also needs to take care of himself."
Empress Ma held Chang Luohua's hand distressedly: "I'm tired. You've made this trip in vain on this hot day. You'll ride back in a wind chariot later. It's a good thing to move more, but you can't walk so far in one go."
Empress Ma took Chang Luohua to the side hall to rest. Zhu Yuanzhang glared at his son and cursed: "You didn't even think of sending someone over. If this happens, look at how we will deal with you!"
Zhu Biao was also wronged: "How can I think so much in this moment, let alone it is fake, she has to come, otherwise she will become arrogant just because she is pregnant."
Zhu Yuanzhang lay back on the bed, crossed his legs, and transferred his anger to Han Qi: "Otherwise, we hate these nerds, but they are so damn bad and can't do anything useful. Go tell Mao Xiang to do a good job for us."
Trouble them."
Zhu Biao is naturally a dead Taoist friend but not a poor Taoist. It is not a big deal. It is just that he deserves to be in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment without food and sleep. It just makes Han Qi and the censors long to remember, and the affairs of the court.
You have to dawdle first and test each other's bottom line. They will always criticize you wherever you go, which complicates a simple matter.
Zhu Biao agreed and gave his father a cup of herbal tea: "Then we should go to Fengyang as planned, or go directly?"
At this stage of the drama, it makes sense to go directly to Cangyang County to interrogate Liu Chun. After all, the emperor and the prince were knocked unconscious because of him, so going to the big heaven would be an act of loyalty to Liu Jiaren.
Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it seriously and said: "It's better to go to Fengyang first. Firstly, we haven't kowtowed to your grandparents for two years. Secondly, we should go to Xianyihuihou to cry. Since it's just a show,
Then work hard to the end and don’t try to save trouble, and Liu Ying has to agree to it."
Zhu Biao nodded clearly. This is indeed the case. Liu Ying is the contemporary Marquis of Yihui and the patriarch of the Liu family. If he drinks too much and says something he shouldn't say, such as that the emperor is ungrateful or something, then the Zhu family will be in trouble.
Just sit on the wax, you can't kill Liu Chun and then kill Liu Ying, the benefactor's eldest son, then nothing will be washed away.
Zhu Yuanzhang directly ordered: "We will leave early tomorrow morning and go straight to Fengyang. Only in this way can we be sincere. As for Liu Ying, you can communicate with her then. There are some things we can't say."
Zhu Biao immediately nodded and said: "My son has dealt with Liu Ying several times and took extra care of his family when resettling the relocated people in Fengyang. I think this person is quite peaceful, but he has a bit of a cold temper."
, otherwise Liu Chun would not have become a county magistrate."
Zhu Yuanzhang was not surprised. Liu Ying had stayed by his side for several years. Although he was not allowed to go to the battlefield in order to preserve the blood of his benefactor, Liu Ying was not unable to make contributions in the rear.
As long as Zhu Yuanzhang knew that he had made a little progress and made some meritorious deeds, he would be able to grant Liu Jizu the title of Duke of the country. He could also inherit the righteousness and benefit of the Duke. However, after making several suggestions overtly and secretly and seeing that he was unmoved, Zhu Yuanzhang gave up.
, I just want to allow him to live a happy and prosperous life.
