After bringing Lao Liu back to the palace, Queen Ma stayed by his bedside and, together with Concubine Hu Chong, massaged the four seam points on his hands according to the imperial doctor's instructions.
Needless to say, he really took care of things. Zhu Zhen's fever subsided by nightfall, he woke up, and was able to sit up and talk to his mother, stepmother, and concubine.
Empress Ma finally let go of her worries and ordered the imperial doctor to come to the King of Chu for follow-up examinations every day. She also asked Concubine Chong to empty Lao Liu's stomach first and let him eat millet porridge and immortal wine for a few days before leaving Xishao.
between.
The prince and his brothers were all waiting in the west room to find out what happened to the sixth child. The empress did not go back, and all the concubines were also waiting in the main hall.
"Let's all go back. The sixth child is fine. Just rest for a few days and recuperate his stomach." Empress Ma asked the concubines to go back first, and then said to the second child, the third child, the fourth child, the fourth child, and the second child: "You also go back and have a rest tomorrow morning."
Get up and go to Kunning Palace. Mom, no matter how hard you listen to your chatter, how did you get here in the past six months?"
"Yes, Queen Mother." The sons saluted together. Queen Ma lovingly touched their heads and asked Zhu Dao:
"Third brother, do you know that you are a father?"
"After returning to my mother, my eldest brother has already told me." Zhu nodded with a smile and said proudly:
"It's just a trivial matter, it's not worth mentioning, why bother my mother to worry about it..."
Before he finished speaking, the third child gave Queen Ma a blow to his brain.
"Third brother, you went out for a trip, and you couldn't learn anything. That's your son, and he's the eldest son. Is there anything bigger than this?!" Empress Ma was so angry that she couldn't find Ba.
Eight shots, now you can catch someone who has no eyesight.
"Mother, he won't be able to speak if he doesn't pretend to be pretentious now." The fourth child immediately made a last-ditch attack.
"Oh, I was wrong." The third child covered his head and quickly admitted his mistake. He secretly felt cruel in his heart. When you get a wife, I will definitely take revenge.
"Hey, don't say this bastard thing when you go home. It's not been an easy year for your wife, so the husband needs to be coaxed..." Empress Ma sighed, patted the third child on the back and said:
"Don't come to Kunning Palace tomorrow. Stay at home with your wife and bring the princess and Ji Xi over the next day."
"Yes, Queen Mother." After being stroked a few times by my mother, the third child became as obedient as a kitten.
The queen can actually understand the third child. After all, he is only eighteen, and he has become a father before he has finished being a child. It is understandable that he cannot enter the state.
Not to mention the third child, the eldest is the most reliable one. He is not as close to his sons as he is to his brothers...
After the queen gave the instructions to the third child, she looked at the second child with dim eyes and said, "What are you doing, are you envious of the third child?"
Only a mother can read some useful information from Zhu Ping's pure eyes.
"Yeah." Zhu Xi lowered his head and said, "Eldest, eldest brother, and the third brother all have sons, but I don't."
"You don't know why you don't have a son?" Queen Ma sighed and said, "Minmin is a nice person. Although she is Mongolian, she is also a lady, well-educated and handsome. You..."
While she was talking, she saw that the second child's eyes were blank, and she knew that he didn't listen at all. Such a stubborn fool, so sure of death, that even nine cows could not pull him back. Empress Ma had no choice, so she stopped.
: "Forget it, go back and rest."
After saying that, she got on the phoenix sedan.
~~
After the concubines and princes respectfully sent off Queen Fengjia, they all returned to the palace. Concubine Da Ding and her two sons were also among them.
Looking at his mother's gloomy face, King Qi knew that something bad was about to happen.
Sure enough, as soon as she returned to Changyang Palace, Concubine Da Ding shouted: "Kneel down, you evildoer!"
'Oh, I knew it...' Lao Qi sighed secretly, not only knelt down, but also lay directly on the crotch, sticking out his buttocks.
Skilled in making people feel distressed.
Concubine Da Ding originally just wanted to give him a lesson.
While waiting in Wan'an Palace, the brothers who have just returned from training will definitely be bragging.
Well, it was actually the third and fourth sons who were talking about cross talk. But these two people were very eloquent and described their experiences in a gripping and thrilling way, which made them sweat.
After hearing the experiences of her brothers, Concubine Da Ding knew that the emperor would definitely give them a more important job next.
It's easy to talk about errands, after all, my son is still young, and there will be plenty of opportunities in the future. The key is that after this year's ups and downs, the affection and understanding between the brothers are definitely unmatched by other brothers.
At least Lao Qi has no intention of integrating into them...
Moreover, Concubine Da Ding estimated that the emperor would probably not dare to do it again if it was so suspenseful this time. Even if he did it again, he would just stop doing it. I am afraid that Lao Qi will never be able to make up for this lesson.
But Concubine Da Ding was not too angry, because she felt her scalp numb just listening to the experiences of her five brothers. She really couldn’t imagine that her son went to the streets to beg for food, and acted like his chest was broken with rocks. She had to be a mother.
I feel so distressed to death. Moreover, I was arrested by the government and the Mingjiao, and encountered so many dangers...
She didn't want to have a meal without worrying about it for a whole year, so she didn't go if Lao Qi didn't go.
Concubine Da Ding just wanted to reprimand Lao Qiyi...
Unexpectedly, Lao Qi actually got the pose right.
Concubine Da Ding couldn't bear to offend him, so she ordered: "Old Marquis, take the family law..."
‘Pah! Pah! Pah!’ The familiar voice sounded over Changyang Palace again.
~~
The empress's phoenix sedan over there did not go back to Kunning Palace, but went straight to Qianqing Palace.
Eunuch Wu, who was guarding the gate of the palace, immediately came up to him and said cautiously: "Queen, Madam Rong Bing, the Emperor has issued an oral instruction, saying that there have been too many government affairs accumulated in recent times, and the memorial will be approved all night tonight, and no one is allowed to disturb her."
"Step aside." Queen Ma glared at him.
"Hey." Eunuch Wu immediately moved away obediently, and then trotted forward to lead the way.
Being courteous to the queen is secondary, the main thing is to inform the emperor quickly.
"The Queen has arrived..." Eunuch Wu sang with all his strength. This was the last thing he could do for the Emperor.
In the dormitory, Zhu Yuanzhang was indeed reading the memorial with the lamp on, which was not a lie.
He was seeing a report from Zhejiang Province that Japanese pirates were invading the Zhoushan Islands, and the local guard asked for instructions on how to deal with it. He waved his ink pen and gave instructions domineeringly:
"Emperor Fengtian Chengyun issued an edict: Tell the people to prepare their knives. These guys are coming. Kill them first. I appreciate this!"
When you’re done, let’s look at another one…
Boss Zhu was addicted to reading and replying to posts, and when he couldn't extricate himself, he suddenly heard Eunuch Wu's warning. His face immediately changed, he threw away the ink pen, stood up and rushed to the kang, opened the window and was about to jump out...
…
But he saw Queen Ma standing outside the window, looking at him with a mocking look on her face.
"Where are you running?"
"We didn't, we didn't run away." Zhu Yuanzhang stuttered like his second son. "Let's open the window to get some fresh air."
"Breathable?"
"That's right, let's get some air." Boss Zhu finally smoothed out his words and said with a flattering smile: "We've been closed all night, isn't the queen here? We can't open the window in advance to get some air. Don't seduce the girl.
"
"Oh, your Majesty is interested." Queen Ma nodded, walked in from the door of the palace, and asked, "Have you finished breathing?"
"It's over." Zhu Yuanzhang nodded.
Queen Ma then ordered: "Close the doors and windows."
A familiar scene happened again...
ps. Thank you for everyone's concern and understanding. I finally felt alive after sleeping until noon today. I quickly made an outline in the afternoon and wrote the first chapter and sent it out...
