To make it clear, due to the change in the crown prince's status, Jie'er also attracted the attention of thousands of people. On his birthday in July, his family even celebrated a little.
The little one was still playing with the little one. Yan Shiyue and Huo Qijing had dinner and went to bring Dumpling back. On the way, Dumpling asked her: "Aniang, why will brother Jie'a be different in the future?"
Yan Shiyue explained to him: "Because you, the emperor, want to give this world to the emperor's uncle, then the emperor's uncle will become the emperor, his children will become the princes and princesses, and the others will just be the children of the royal family, so
It will be different, there will be a distinction between monarch and minister."
Dumpling asked: "Then why am I different?"
Yan Shiyue didn't understand: "What makes you different?"
Jiaozi said: "Brother Zhen said that they will have to salute Brother Jie when they see him in the future, but I won't."
Yan Shiyue's face darkened.
These words are extremely disgusting. What do you mean he doesn't need to salute? Are these words meant to disgust the prince or her?
You know, some things are very subtle. Emperor Ming Yan may have chosen this day to protect her, or to warn his ministers, or to remind the prince. However, this can only be experienced by each individual and cannot be announced.
At the mouth.
Only tacit understanding is wonderful.
On the contrary, it is not a good reputation for her or the prince.
Moreover, Emperor Ming Yan valued family harmony, and the Zen position was greatly motivated by this consideration. Especially for such young children, they should be as close as brothers. He never wanted to see such a small relationship become so impure.
She is really, really annoyed by people who are mean-spirited towards children.
Huo Qijing reached out from his horse and took Jie'er over. Yan Shiyue nodded and turned around to go to the Fourth Prince's Mansion.
The fourth prince had just returned to the mansion. When he heard that she was here, he was a little surprised. He came out to welcome her and asked, "Yue'er? What's wrong?"
Yan Shiyue said: "I'm looking for Zhen'er."
The fourth princess was a little surprised: "But what did Zhen'er do wrong?"
Yan Shiyue waved her hands and said nothing. The fourth princess did not dare to ask any more questions, so she called Zhen'er out.
Zhen'er liked her very much and trotted over: "Auntie."
Yan Shiyue put her arms around him: "Good boy, my aunt asked you, you told Jiaozi that Jie'er's identity will be different from now on, right?"
"Yes." Zhen'er said, "Isn't it?"
"Yes," Yan Shiyue said, "but why do you think that you have to salute Jie'er when you see him, but you don't have to salute when you see Jiaozi?"
The fourth prince frowned and wanted to speak. Yan Shiyue turned Zhen'er in a direction to prevent him from seeing him, and said softly: "What do you think, please tell me?"
Zhen'er shook his head: "I don't understand either. It was my virtuous grandmother who told me not to make mistakes. She also told me that if we are close to each other, I should remind my brothers not to make mistakes either."
What kind of brothers? There is only this one in the fourth prince's palace, but there is no fifth prince's palace. The other princess's palaces are far away from the center of power. Doesn't this just mean dumplings?
Yan Shiyue patted Zhen'er gently on the back: "Zhen'er, listen to my aunt, Concubine Xian is a confused person, and what she thinks may not be right. Don't believe it either..."
She paused for a moment: "Not every adult is right. Reading can help you understand things. She has never studied, and traveling far away can increase her knowledge. She has never traveled far, so there are some things she can't figure out on her own. Please teach you.
, it means he was taught the wrong thing... So Zhen'er will listen to his father and learn from him in the future, okay?"
Zhen'er thought for a moment: "What about aunt?"
"You can also learn from your aunt or your husband. Then Zhen'er will grow up day by day, read more and more books, and know more and more truths. That way, when others talk to you, you can think for yourself.
Think about it, is it right or wrong, okay?”
Zhen'er nodded: "Okay."
She kissed his forehead: "Good boy, let Zhen'er go and rest."
She stood up: "Fourth sister-in-law, please take care of Zhen'er and rest."
The fourth princess nodded, smiled reluctantly, and took Zhen'er down.
The fourth prince stood there, silent, and after a while he said: "Did she really not understand?"
"No," Yan Shiyue answered very clearly: "She is not! She is just unwilling because her plan failed. She may also blame you for your incompetence, and then she casually disgusts me and the prince. She thinks this little thing is no big deal.
, Zhen'er may not say it, and if she does, she won't be held accountable at all, so she can vent her anger at will."
The fourth prince's complexion changed slightly, and after a long time, he smiled bitterly.
For the courtiers, the dust had settled when Emperor Yan of the Ming Dynasty asked the prince to approve the memorial.
Those who are dull will understand that Emperor Ming Yan did not come back to accept the coming of all nations during the New Year.
But for many people who are not familiar with court affairs, they suddenly realized it when the decree was issued.
Concubine Xian had left herself out from the very beginning, and she thought she was very clever in doing so.
So she was in a detached mood that no matter how much she fought, at least she would not be affected in any way... Although she didn't think there was much hope in the first place, but now she suddenly knew that there was no hope at all, and it was inevitable to feel disappointed.
Just vent your anger casually.
In her opinion, the worst outcome of this matter is that Zhen'er will be punished, and Zhen'er's punishment will never be found on her.
In fact, if this matter had been changed by any other person, the only result of this matter would have been nothing.
Except Yan Shiyue.
She turned around and was about to leave. The fourth prince stepped forward and grabbed her arm: "Yue'er!"
Yan Shiyue said: "You have grown up and have a wife and children. Do you have to have a mother to survive? In fact, you have never been loved by your mother at all! She doesn't even treat you as a son, why do you still have to live with her?
Treat her as your mother? Filial piety should have been something that comes from the heart, but now it has become a fetter and shackles, so why bother?"
The fourth prince smiled bitterly: "She is my mother after all."
Yan Shiyue said: "I will definitely be disgusted by those who disgust me. I can't tolerate tampering with the people I care about. I respect you, my brother and sister, and it's not a big deal. It's not unreasonable to tolerate it."
Yes, but...fourth brother, why bother? Do you have to let your blood tie you for the rest of your life?"
The fourth prince was a little confused for a moment.
She broke away and walked away.
The next day, Emperor Yan of the Ming Dynasty issued an order and the concubine Xian was demoted to Anguiren.
He promoted Concubine Yi to the title of Concubine Xian, and at the same time re-recorded the fourth prince in the name of Concubine Xian.
Except for a few people who knew the inside story, everyone was surprised.
It is certain that the original concubine Xian made the emperor dissatisfied, but how dissatisfied did she have to be to change the name of an adult prince to someone else?
It just so happened that at this moment when I was about to reach the Zen position...
Everyone knows that when a new emperor ascends the throne, his adult brothers will definitely be crowned kings, and since the emperor has become the supreme emperor, these people basically have nothing to do. They will count on their sons in the future, but at this time, their sons are gone.
If they were a close mother and son, they would definitely get some private care, but their mother and son had never spoken to each other, and now... Concubine Xian would probably regret it to death.
As for concubine Yi, she was extremely lucky to have got a concubine for free and such a big son for free.
Yan Shiyue took advantage of her father still being in that position to act willfully for the last time. Don't you want to let it go? You have to bear the consequences yourself. Anyway, you have never cared about your son, so just don't have it.
Even the fourth prince did not expect such a result.
He and his mother and concubine had been having sex for so many years, and all the love they had had was wasted.
Therefore, when the mother-in-law touched Zhen'er's body with her hands and feet, it was true that he felt chilled, but the discomfort was not that great. He was afraid that Yan Shiyue would file a lawsuit, mainly because he was worried that he would also be implicated.
But obviously, this treatment completely left him out. (To be continued)
