Chapter 142 The deep desire for perfection and blame
On the sixth day of September, the sixth prince got married.
A royal wedding is already grand, let alone marrying a daughter of the Yao family.
How many days have passed, people still can’t forget the extravagant scenery of that day.
The sixth prince was given a mansion alone, and on the second day of the wedding, he and Yao Wanyi went to the palace to express their gratitude.
The queen set up a table in her palace, with only the emperor, the concubine and her three elders, it was like a family banquet.
Yao Wanyi was dressed resplendently, and because she raised her head, revealing her broad forehead and stubby eyebrows, she looked even more like her mother.
I think back then Yao Tai was called "The First Warrior of Great Xia", not only because of his military exploits, but also because he dared to marry Princess Maoling, the most ugly woman of Great Xia.
Not only did she get married, but she also gave birth to two sons and a daughter.
And there are no concubines, only the head wife of Princess Maoling.
You must know that Princess Maoling’s ex-husband, Yushi Tuzan, was forced to marry her, but he still refused to sleep with her.
The princess tried her best, but could not make him submit.
He even complained to the Queen Mother.
The emperor questioned Tu Zan and advised him to be content with his marriage and to fulfill his duties as a husband.
But Tu Yushi said: "It is my duty to obey the emperor's orders. If I can't do anything, it is incompetent.
I have done my duty, and my incompetence is really helpless.
The emperor can kill or behead him, but I have no complaints."
At this point, the emperor was at his wits' end.
Later, Tu Zan died suddenly, although the imperial doctor said it was a heart attack.
But many people say that Princess Maoling used the medicine of tiger and wolf on him.
Princess Maoling later married Yao Tai, who was eight years younger than herself, and the two were very affectionate.
Yao Tai is handsome, but unfortunately all three children look like their mother. People privately call Princess Maoling’s three children toads.
But even if he looks ugly, he is also coated with a layer of golden light under the overwhelming power.
Yao Wanyi, who is already a wife, has a slightly shy face, and she and the Sixth Prince bow to the Emperor, Empress and Concubine.
All three of them received gifts.
Concubine Xian specifically told her son: "When you get married, you are an adult. You must love your wife well.
Don't be willful and reckless anymore, don't let down the wishes of the Holy Lord and the Queen."
Then he said to Yao Wanyi: "Good boy, since you are my daughter-in-law, you are also my daughter. If you are wronged in any way, just tell me and I will make the decision for you."
The Emperor and the Queen were very satisfied with Concubine Xian's attitude. After they sat down at the table, the Emperor said: "Concubine Xian, now that the sixth son's life-long affairs have been settled, he has his own mansion, and he spends less time with you. I decided to issue an order to transfer your brother back to the capital from Yuzhou, so that you can reunite with your parents and brothers and relieve the pain of missing you."
Concubine Xian was extremely surprised when she heard this. She left her seat and knelt down to express her gratitude: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. I am so grateful that I shed tears of gratitude."
"I didn't think so carefully, but the queen reminded me. Since my son can't always be with you, and your mother-in-law is not in the capital, it's really a bit lonely and pitiful.
Think about it, your brother has been transferred abroad for more than ten years, and your parents are getting old, so it’s time to return to the capital to take care of themselves.”
"I would like to thank you, the Queen, for your thoughtfulness. I feel really ashamed that I can't repay you in return." Concubine Xian said with great emotion.
"There is no need for us sisters to be so polite to each other. Get up quickly! I think they will be back in the capital in a month at most. By then, they will be in time for the fireside banquet, which is a good time to get together." The queen smiled and said to Concubine Xian.
Mix it up.
Concubine Xian was still wiping her tears, obviously crying with joy.
The Sixth Prince watched from the side, and his originally bitter and heavy heart felt somewhat better.
Yao Wanyi secretly glanced at her husband, feeling more and more confident.
She believed that with the help of the Queen and her parents, the Sixth Prince would one day see the good in her.
The queen suggested that the emperor transfer the concubine Xian's natal family back to the capital, which can be seen as taking care of them.
But if the Sixth Prince cannot repay his kindness, then these people will become bargaining chips in the hands of the Yao family.
When it comes to playing power and calculating people's hearts, they are very good at it.
The banquet did not end until Yingri Yingxixiang, Yao Wanyi and the Sixth Prince said goodbye and left the palace.
The emperor went to the imperial study room to review the memorial, and the concubine Xian also sat for a while before going back to her palace to rest.
The queen was also a little tired, so she asked Liang Jing to come over and massage her head and neck, leaving only one confidant maid in front of her, and sent the rest away.
When the queen woke up after a short nap, the prince happened to come over to say hello.
The queen then asked him about his lessons in the past few days, and then asked those who followed him how the prince's daily life and diet were.
During the question and answer period, he found dirt on the corners of the prince's robe, so he immediately shouted: "Where are you sneaking away to play again?!"
The prince quickly shook his head and said no: "I accidentally fell on the way here."
After hearing this, the queen sneered and said: "Do you think my old eyesight is dim? If I fell, the traces of dirt should have been rubbed over.
There are clearly traces of your knees on your clothes, which were obviously made by kneeling there. Did you go fishing for crickets or ants?!"
The prince is only ten years old this year, which is the age when he is naughty and playful.
But the queen is too strict and has a lot of homework every day. If he is found to be slacking off, he must be severely punished.
So this child developed a habit of lying.
He didn't mean to deceive, he was just too afraid of his mother.
At this time, all the people following him knelt down, knowing that the queen was angry and they would all be punished.
"Queen, please calm down. The prince was just passing by Qimei Garden when he saw a little rabbit, and he pulled out two grasses and fed it.
The servants quickly tried to persuade him, and the prince let go." The eunuch who followed quickly defended himself.
"Why are you so ignorant of progress?!" The queen did not calm down because of this, and still scolded sternly, "Do the sages' teachings you learn in daily life just make you lose your ambition by playing with things? Tell Shaobao later that you will add 30% to your homework today."
p>
The prince's head was lowered, and he did not dare to refute.
Yao Ziyun has high hopes for his son and does not allow him to play around like other children.
A person who wants to become a monarch should cut off the nature of children early.
Yao Ziyun also has his own difficulties. The emperor is old and the prince is too young.
The pinnacle of power is always high and cold. Only by being strong can we stand firm.
The prince was reprimanded, but he did not dare to show any dissatisfaction. He honestly admitted his mistake and went back to do his homework.
After he left, Liang Jing stepped forward to persuade the queen: "The prince is naturally intelligent, and the queen does not need to worry too much. After all, he is still a child, and it is not a big deal if he is playful occasionally."
The queen sighed after hearing this and said: "He always can't understand my painstaking efforts. Does he think he can sit back and relax just because he becomes the prince?
I don’t know how many people are watching in secret!
By the way, how about the thing I asked you to check?"
"I'm still investigating, but I haven't found anything useful so far." Liang Jingdao, "Qingque has been hidden quite deep. So far, we can neither find out his origin nor find anything to do with him."

"Then you have to keep an eye on me and continue to investigate. If you don't believe that his past is so clean." The queen's face was very tight.
"I know this, please tell them to be more careful." Liang Jing paused.
