The Wu Palace is very big, and a corner of it is divided into the East Palace. Going to the queen's residence requires a long journey by car.
When she heard that they were coming, the queen was very happy. She set up a banquet table in a lively manner and let her grandchildren play and eat and drink. Then she and the prince went into the side hall to talk.
The princess was not qualified to follow him in, so she sat outside and watched the children with the palace ladies.
There was only mother and son in the side hall, so the prince asked directly: "Mother, what is going on? Why does the father suddenly value his third brother so much?"
Speaking of this, the queen was also very annoyed: "It's not because you haven't been here for a long time."
The prince laughed and shook his head. He actually understood the emperor better than the queen who was married to him.
"No, the less I am away from my father, the more he will miss me." He said, "My father does love my third brother, but he shouldn't use him so seriously." At this point, he sighed, "It should be me who was there before.
My advice was wrong, which displeased my father."
Previously, he had dissuaded the emperor from using tactics to win soldiers. The emperor originally listened, but the iron-faced general made trouble and the emperor was shaken again. After deliberation in the court, in order to calm down the incident, he made state and county policies.
According to the decision of the examination, only three scholars from poor families were selected from each state and county.
Three people were negligible, and both the nobles and the common people were comforted, and the matter was resolved. The result was more satisfactory than his advice to prevent it.
So my father blamed him for not doing enough.
"How could this be your fault?" The queen was very angry after hearing this. "This is obviously their fault. These things didn't happen originally. It was all the trouble caused by the third prince and Chen Danzhu."
The prince didn't want to think about it anymore: "Anyway, I'll go and admit my mistake to my father."
The queen stopped her: "Don't go. Your Majesty doesn't like people to admit their mistakes to him, especially when he doesn't say anything. If you admit your mistakes like this, he will think that you are asking him."
The prince looked a little sad: "My son, I don't know what to do. Mother, things are different now."
The emperor did not rebuke him, but he felt at a loss as he stood in the court these days.
The queen looked at her son's sad face, her eyes filled with pity. Many people envied and hated the prince because he was the eldest son. He had a good life and was loved by the emperor. However, the son had to bear many fears and fears for this love. As the eldest son of the emperor, he was afraid
The emperor died suddenly, and he was also afraid that he would be killed. From the day he became sensible, the little child never had a peaceful sleep.
The prince said that things are different now, and the queen understood what he meant. In the past, the princes and kings were powerful and intimidated the court, and father and son relied on each other. The emperor only regarded his eldest son as the continuation of life, but now the princes and kings are gradually being replaced.
After it was settled, Daxia unified the world and it was peaceful. The emperor's life would not be threatened. The continuation of Daxia did not necessarily depend on the eldest son. The emperor began to focus on other sons.
Don't think about it! The queen's eyes were filled with hatred, but she smiled lovingly at the prince: "Don't think so much. You just came from Xijing. You need to adapt to it safely."
The prince responded and said to the queen affectionately: "Before, when I was alone in Xijing, I felt that I was not afraid of anything. Unexpectedly, when I saw my mother, I became like a child, always panicking."
The queen smiled: "As long as my mother is here, I will be a child no matter how old I am."
Hearing that the prince's family came to visit the queen, the emperor came over after finishing his work, but the queen was the only one left in the palace.
"Let them go back." The queen stroked her forehead and said, "The children are too noisy and they make me have a headache."
The emperor laughed: "Now there are only two juniors like them in the palace, so you think it's noisy? In the future, all five of them will become biological children, and that will be called lively."
Thinking of that scene, the emperor felt a little longing and nodded again. Now that the princes and kings were in trouble, he finally thought that the other sons should get married. The reason why they didn't talk about their marriage before was to avoid having too many children in the next life -
He likes to have more children and wants the prince to have biological children as soon as possible. However, if other princes also have biological children at that time, too many grandchildren will be a threat. When the time comes, any one of them can be taken advantage of by the princes and kings, and they can be promoted as orthodox. On the contrary, it will
Daxia was in chaos.
Things are different now, the world is at peace.
"When the Si Festival comes, let all the girls of the right age be sent in. Look, let's fix up Le Rong's appearance. Well, let's not talk about the grooming for now. Let's choose a suitable wife for Le Rong De Rong——"
When the emperor was talking, the queen kept frowning, but said nothing. When she heard that she was going to pick wives for the princes, and after the second prince, there would be the third prince. The emperor just skipped the third prince and didn't mention it, and the queen's anger disappeared.
I can't hold it in any longer.
If you don’t mention it, why don’t you mention the third prince and not let him have a family and establish a career?
"You are so anxious to get them married and have children because you saw the prince coming. Is there anyone in the palace to take care of the children?" the queen interrupted the emperor with a sneer.
The emperor was startled, and his happiness was poured with inexplicable cold water - "What do you mean?"
"What can I mean? The prince has finished his work in Xijing. He won't need it when he comes to the capital. He is left out every day. He is not allowed to do anything. He comes to my place to take care of the children every day -" The queen stood up
He shouted angrily, "Your Majesty, if you want to destroy him, you should tell him earlier, and we, mother and son, should go back to Xijing together as soon as possible."
The emperor was furious: "Absurd!"
Perhaps it was because she was a few years older than the emperor, or perhaps she was used to making noises over the years, but the queen showed no fear at all. She covered her face and cried: "Now does your majesty think that I am ridiculous? I gave birth to children for your majesty, but now it is useless, your majesty."
Destroy me."
The emperor angrily tossed his sleeves and walked away.
When the queen interrupted the emperor's speech, the maids in the palace immediately kicked out everyone inside and outside the palace, and knelt down far outside the palace. After a moment, they saw the emperor walking away quickly. After the emperor left, everyone did not get up.
Hearing the crackling sound in the palace, he waited for the queen to get out of the beating, and then went in to serve her.
This scene has become common in recent years, and everyone in the palace is used to it.
The emperor was not used to it yet, and his eyebrows were livid with anger: "You can threaten me by deposing the queen at every turn. Don't I dare to depose the queen?"
Eunuch Jinzhong sighed sadly: "Yes, how could your majesty not dare? Your majesty is just reluctant to give up."
"Even if I have no love for her, I still have a sense of loyalty to her. It was she who kept me company during my most difficult time and gave birth to a prince for me. Where did I offend her? I always look like I can't stand her -
—" The emperor seemed so angry that he didn't know what to say, and banged the table loudly, "Can I still not forgive her? What she has done -"
At this point, he suddenly stopped, and Eunuch Jinzhong also brought tea in time.
"Your Majesty, have a sip of tea." He advised, "Don't be angry, don't be angry."
The emperor took the tea and took a sip.
"Your Majesty is a little confused. Your Majesty didn't choose her because of her talents and virtues." Eunuch Jinzhong whispered, "Your Majesty respects your Majesty and treats her leniently. Her life goes well. The more people go well with her, the more she has a bad temper.
If something goes wrong, you will lose your temper——"
The emperor threw the tea cup on the table: "This is simply unreasonable."
While we were talking here, a eunuch outside said that the prince was outside and asked to see him.
The emperor sneered: "Did you see that the trouble she caused will only cause trouble for Jinrong. She and I quarreled. Who is the saddest? It's Jinrong."
Eunuch Jinzhong sighed: "Your Majesty is a confused person. Your Majesty is clear-minded. Otherwise, the prince's life will be even more difficult."
"I raised Jinrong single-handedly," the emperor said, waving his hand: "Go and tell him that this is our husband and wife's business. As for our children, don't worry too much about it. Just let him do his own thing.
"
Eunuch Jinzhong responded, but was stopped by the emperor when he was about to leave. The prince was an honest and upright man, so he just said that it was not possible. The emperor pointed to a pile of memorials on the dragon case.
"Let him look at these and deal with them."
In the East Palace, the prince sat in front of the case, carefully reviewing the memorial, without any worry or anxiety in his eyes.
Having a confused mother is a problem for many children, but for him, every time his parents quarrel will only make his father pity him more.
