Cheng Silang threw down the scroll in his hand, stood up, and walked angrily.
"Master, the exam is coming soon, don't panic." The book boy said worriedly.
"I'm not panicking, I'm just angry." Cheng Silang said.
"Master, the lady didn't want you to study in peace, she is fine," the book boy said.
Cheng Silang stopped.
"What can she do if something happens to her?" He said angrily, "No matter how sad I feel, I won't tell anyone. How can I not be sad about this kind of thing!"
"So what?" the book boy said timidly.
Yes, what should I do?
Cheng Silang paced back and forth again.
"Anyway, I will definitely testify. I will watch over her carefully. When my daughter gets married, they won't be able to keep any of this property. Otherwise, otherwise, I won't let it go!" He stopped and said.
Yes, he must watch carefully. If they go back on their word...
When you study, you must pass the exam! Stand up for your sister when the time comes!
Cheng Silang walked quickly back to the desk, sat down, and picked up the book.
The book boy breathed a sigh of relief and was about to tiptoe away when he saw Cheng Silang suddenly sitting up again.
"No," he said.
"Master, what's wrong?" the book boy asked helplessly.
"I still have to write a letter to tell my father first." Cheng Silang said.
……………………………………………………………………………
"master."
Mrs. Cheng Er hurriedly came in and shouted.
Seeing that there was no sign of Mr. Cheng Er in the hall, he hurriedly walked inside again.
Mr. Cheng Er leaned lazily while two maidservants beat their legs.
Mrs. Cheng Er waved her hands, and the two maids hurriedly withdrew.
"That boy Shiro actually wrote a letter to Jiangzhou. He must be talking about this matter." She knelt down and said.
Mr. Cheng Er didn't even raise his eyelids.
"So what?" he asked.
"If the big house knows about it, is it willing to watch us get this benefit?" Mrs. Cheng Er said.
Mr. Cheng Er smiled.
"No?" He opened his eyes, "What can he do if he doesn't? Does he dare to snatch it? Don't forget that it belongs to you and me in name, but in fact it belongs to her...it's better to seize her dowry.
Haven’t you eaten enough fruit yet?”
That's true. Madam Cheng Er breathed a sigh of relief and looked happy again.
"This master is so thoughtful," she praised, calling the maid outside to come in and give Master Cheng a leg and a squeeze on his shoulders.
Mr. Cheng Er closed his eyes with a bit of pride, and while humming a little tune, he put his hands on his knees and beat the time, enjoying himself.
After all, the fact that several stores in Beijing have changed their names is a family matter. It is unknown to outsiders and has no impact. However, interested outsiders will know it immediately.
"Master Cheng Er's movements are really fast." Gao Lingbo said with a smile.
"There are so many dreams in the long night." The staff member laughed, "This time, Mrs. Cheng has suffered the loss of being mute and cannot speak out about her suffering."
"You will reap the consequences." Gao Lingbo said, "Who told her not to think carefully at the beginning, but to write her name carelessly, so arrogant and arrogant that she can't blame others."
"Besides, you can't blame others." A staff member laughed, "This is a matter of course."
"Yes, it's all natural and natural, so I feel relieved." Gao Lingbo said, sitting up, "I'm not in Beijing, there are only two important things you have to do."
Seeing his solemn expression, all the staff and close subordinates present sat upright and listened.
"First, take advantage of this disaster to send the prince of Jin'an County to the capital."
"Second, please establish a crown prince after March."
The staff and subordinates all responded respectfully.
"Sir, do you really want to leave at the age of twenty-three?" A subordinate raised his head and said, his eyes full of reluctance, "Why don't we leave after the beginning of spring? We are really uncomfortable with traveling in this cold weather."
Gao Lingbo laughed.
"If you make others feel better, I should feel better." He smiled and paused again, "Also, Prince Ping and the concubines in the palace should take more care of you. If you don't worry,
I really don’t trust them, especially the empress.”
Before the first month was over, Gao Lingbo, who had been demoted to the state and county for delaying the disaster and causing civil unrest, actually left the capital.
He left suddenly and quietly, with only a few close relatives and friends seeing him off, and one person, one car and a few servants.
"Pitiful?"
The emperor hummed and asked.
The imperial concubine wiping her tears was clever.
"It's not pitiful. Think about the people who were displaced by the disaster. That's pitiful." She said angrily. "Thankfully, he still had some heart. He didn't leave the capital and even sent us off happily with gongs and drums."
The emperor smiled.
"It's all because people have been in high positions for a long time." He shook his head and sighed.
"Yes, let him go out and experience things properly this time," the imperial concubine said, "so that he can know the sufferings of the people and the difficulties faced by His Majesty."
The emperor smiled again.
"Looking at what you said, it's not like we are relatives, but enemies." He said, "Are you willing to let go?"
"Your Majesty, it is precisely because they are relatives that I am even more angry." The imperial concubine said, "He is my relative, and I only pointed at him to add glory to my long face. As a result, this kind of thing happened, and it was he who was humiliated.
My face is also my concubine, and my Majesty’s face. People will say in private that it is your Majesty’s connivance, or that your Majesty is nepotistic, etc. I am so angry that I am being implicated for no reason.”
The emperor smiled and sighed again.
"I hope he can know my painstaking efforts," he said.
Looking at the emperor's smiling face, the imperial concubine felt a little proud. She thought that before Gao Lingbo left, he specifically told her not to plead for him. Did she think she was a fool?
When should I say anything? Has she lived all these years in vain?
Here the emperor asked King Ping again if he had been here.
"No, I don't know what he is busy with." The imperial concubine said, "I invited him several times, but he always said he was busy. In turn, he complained about me, saying that I didn't follow the rules and summoned him into the palace arbitrarily. I was so angry that I said,
Ignore him."
The emperor laughed.
"This kid is a bit rigid," he said, "but there's nothing wrong with following the rules."
Those unruly majesties need to be careful.
The imperial concubine said in her heart. Of course she couldn't say it out loud, but the emperor must have had his own concerns in his heart.
"Your Majesty, please teach him more." She said with a smile.
"That's natural." The emperor smiled.
Seeing that the emperor was happy, the imperial concubine winked at the maid beside her.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the dinner is ready." The palace maid hurriedly stepped forward and said.
The emperor nodded before speaking, when a maid hurried in outside the door.
"Your Majesty, Concubine An is not feeling well. She has summoned the imperial physician and asked Your Majesty to come over and take a look." the palace maid said.
The imperial concubine's expression changed when she heard this, and when she saw the emperor, he stood up immediately.
"Why are you feeling so good and yet so uncomfortable?" He frowned and said, giving instructions to the driver.
Seeing everyone leaving in a hurry, knowing that the emperor would not be back tonight, the imperial concubine angrily swept the golden cup down to the ground.
"Use this as a means all day long, be careful if one word becomes a prophecy," she said.
"Your Majesty, the imperial doctor has said that Concubine An is the prince." The palace maid whispered.
The imperial concubine snorted.
"What's wrong with the prince?" she said, "I was also a prince back then, and the queen was still in charge of the harem at that time. Did I ever make trouble like this?"
"How can Concubine An compare with your empress?" the palace maid said hurriedly.
The imperial concubine snorted.
The maid looked around.
"What are you talking about? You're sneaky." The imperial concubine said with a glare.
"Your Majesty, some people say that Concubine An is pregnant with an extraordinary prince this time," the palace maid said in a low voice.
The imperial concubine sneered.
"She is a prince and a dragon fetus, so she is naturally extraordinary." She said, "She is not an ordinary woman, but she still pulls this trick in the palace. It's really..."
"Your Majesty, it is said that Concubine An dreamed of the Taibai Star entering her arms when she was pregnant." The palace maid whispered.
The Taibai Star is in my arms….
The imperial concubine sat up straight and patted the golden cup in her hand on the table.
"Ah!" She raised her eyebrows, "She really dares to say that!"
On the other side, Concubine An knelt down, with tears in her almond-shaped eyes, and stretched out her hand to pull the emperor's sleeve.
"Your Majesty, it's really not what I said." She choked and said, "I have never said anything like this. I hate myself for being so weak. Being pregnant with a dragon fetus is such an inconvenience every three days, so that people spread rumors...
.”
"What rumors are there about being weak!" The emperor frowned and said, looking at Concubine An who was wearing pear blossoms and raining rain, and then looking at her body that had grown stronger, he stretched out his hand to hold her hand, "Get up."
Concubine An cried and thanked her and stood up.
"I'm too squeamish, that's why some people are laughing at me behind my back, saying that the child I'm carrying is precious, and that's why there are such rumors. Your Majesty, I don't dare to take this on." She said with a sob.
In fact...there is nothing that I dare not do...
Can’t my bloodline be like a star descending to earth?
The emperor couldn't help but have a thought.
But you can't say this.
"Okay, if you can't control others, can't you control the people in your own palace?" the emperor said, reaching out to pat Concubine An, "First control the people around you, and the rumors outside will naturally die out."
Concubine An nodded.
"Your Majesty is not angry with me," she said sweetly.
The emperor laughed.
"There's nothing to be angry about about this kind of thing." He said with a meaningful smile, reaching out to touch Concubine An's abdomen, "My bloodline is inherently precious!"
"I think so too." Concubine An laughed when she heard this, stroking her belly. "This child is really difficult to take care of. He always troubles me."
The emperor laughed.
Concubine An ordered the meal to be passed around again. She talked happily during the dinner and fed the emperor two glasses of wine. During the excitement, a servant came in in a hurry from outside the door.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, we have an urgent report." He said, bowing and handing over the document in his hand with the seal of Zhongshu's urgent report.
Urgent news at this time?
"Where?" asked the emperor.
"It's from Maoping Road." The waiter lowered his head and said.
Maohei!
The emperor's heart sank slightly, and he already sensed that something was wrong. He hesitated and reached out to take it. When he opened it, his face froze, and then his body swayed, and his whole body was shaky.
"Your Majesty!" Concubine An was shocked and stretched out her hand to help her.
The maids and chamberlains on both sides also rushed up.
The emperor forced himself to sit down, waved his hands to indicate that he was fine, and opened his mouth to speak.
But he opened his mouth and a mouthful of blood spurted out.
Screams pierced the night sky of Miyagi. (To be continued)
