When Princess Jing received the news that Fushun had arranged for a small palace servant in Jingtai Hall again, it had already happened for a long time.
The Jingtai Hall was made into an iron barrel by Fushun and others, and it was difficult to reveal the information inside. If it wasn't for the few newcomers from the small palace who came out a few times, no one would know.
After receiving this news, Xiao Shi smashed a teacup in his hand on the ground and fell ill that night.
During this time, Madam Li from Changchun Hospital sent someone to the Fuzhong Good Medical Clinic to invite a good doctor to come over for diagnosis and treatment. Doctor Hu Xiaoliang had been seeing Mrs. Xiao for a long time. To rest.
Xiao Shi has always been frail and ill, and his body has always been taken care of by Dr. Hu Xiaoliang. Seeing that Dr. Hu Xiaoliang didn't show anything else, the people who served below would just cook the medicine honestly. They didn't even report to King Jing, because they all knew that even if they knew that Xiao Shi was ill, King Jing would not come.
What's more, Xiao's half of the year is sick, and the people below have long been accustomed to it.
Xiao shi leaned on the couch with a pale face, and drank the soup under the service of the wet nurse Li Ma.
"Nanny, what kind of thing do you think I am, Princess Jing, even a dead eunuch dares to run wild on my head!" After saying this, Mrs. Xiao coughed.
Mrs. Xiao is twenty-four this year, one year younger than King Jing. Oval face, dignified and beautiful. Because of the weak body and always lying sick, there was a bit of sickness and paleness on his face.
Mother Chen gave her a long time, and after serving her and drinking some water, she sighed and said: "Princess, don't think too much, it's better to take good care of your body, and don't think too much about the rest. many."
Of course, Mrs. Xiao understood the meaning of Mother Chen's words, but she was angry and aggrieved. Tears flowed out suddenly, "Is it not obvious that I admit my mistake? Why don't you forgive me!"
Mother Chen sighed again, but did not speak.
How should I put it, if she were King Jing, she might not forgive him. No matter how King Jing is said to be, he is also the honor of the dragon son. What the princess did in the early years has long since wiped out the relationship between husband and wife.
Fortunately, King Jing has always been a silent person, and he doesn't say anything, and even helps to hide it, if those things Xiao's done are stabbed out. Even if King Jing was not favored by the saint, the Xiao family could only be dead, because it violated the majesty of the royal family.
The story is very old-fashioned, and it's just something that cousin and cousin guessed without suspicion. It's just that the cousin didn't marry the cousin, but married someone else.
Mrs. Xiao was born in the Jingguo Gongfu, the maiden family of the current empress. That being said, she is actually a prostitute of a side branch.
It stands to reason that it is not enough for the Xiao family to be the concubine of the fifth prince of the year. But later, it was first recorded by Duke Jingguo under the name of the second room, and then Empress Xiao pointed to the marriage, and the emperor ordered the marriage to be the fifth prince concubine.
As soon as he flew up the branches, even if the fifth prince was not favored, the Xiao family was still a serious prince and concubine. It's a pity that when Xiao Shi was young, she originally said she wanted to marry her cousin, but she suddenly came and shattered all her dreams.
If it were other princes, it would be fine, the 'dumb five princes' that no one in the capital knew about? He has always been a transparent person in the palace. His mother and concubines died early, and he is hated by today's saints. Not to mention his life in the palace is not as good as that of other brothers, not even the children of an aristocratic family.
What's more, it's a dumbass!
How could Mr. Xiao be willing! ? How can you be willing? !
But this doesn't mean you can say you don't want it, and the Xiao family can't resist, so she can only honestly marry King Jing, who was the fifth prince back then.
At that time, Mrs. Xiao was only seventeen, and was still in the mind of the youngest daughter. Although she was married, she was in tears on the wedding night, looking like she was aggrieved by her marriage, and it was difficult to get along with King Jing on weekdays. willingly.
King Jing, who was still the fifth prince at that time, has not yet performed the crown ceremony, and still lives in the palace after the big wedding. Xiao Shi received all kinds of indifference in the palace communication, and when she came back, she lost her temper at the fifth prince, scolding him for being incompetent and incompetent, and being mute made her lose her face in front of others.
King Jing is indeed not favored, but he is also the prince's honor, so how can he tolerate this. There is no way to say it, and people are also boring, but the husband and wife are getting farther and farther away, and even the Xiao family has a heavy estrangement in their hearts.
After seven years of marriage, after a long time, Xiao Shi gradually realized that he had nothing to do but add to the discord between the husband and wife, and under the persuasion of the people around him, he changed a lot, but after all, it was too late. .
Now it's too late for Mrs. Xiao to regret it. As she gets older, she and King Jing have been living together so casually that they don't even have an heir, so she starts to feel anxious.
Unfortunately, King Jing had not stayed with her for the night for a long time, and there was nothing he could do in a hurry. That's why there were news about Jing Tai Hall and the fact that Xiao Shi became ill because of it.
Xiao Shi still knew about Fushun's arrangement of the beautiful Xiaogong people in Jingtai Hall in the past two years.
I couldn't see it once or twice, but after a long time, Xiao Shi could see clearly one or two.
This is why the Jingtai Palace needs the help of palace servants, it is obviously the dead old eunuch who is sending women to King Jing's mouth.
But even if he understood what he could do, Fushun was the eunuch who was in charge of the internal affairs of King Jing's mansion. It seems to be respectful to her, but in fact, no one's account is sold except King Jing. King Zaojing's complaint is expected to end up being ignored, and Xiao Shi has no choice but to get angry.
*****
Xiao Shi was sick again, and King Jing got the news.
But just like the people below thought, he didn't even want to see her.
Going to Changchun Courtyard to sit for a while every ten days is just what he should give her. As for the rest, she doesn't have to think about it, and he won't give it either.
The few old people who served around him knew that there was a estrangement between him and her, but King Jing himself knew that it wasn't just for these.
After all, these estrangements are also trivial matters. In the previous life, Xiao Shi's correction showed him favor, and he also forgave her.
It's always just your own wife, isn't it
But the result in exchange was the straw that broke the camel's back!
King Jing couldn't believe it even when he died in his last life. The fate of his life and careful protection of his wife and children was that in order to seek perfection from Emperor Jin, the Xiao family and the son Heng'er exposed their intention to rebel and added unwarranted charges to themselves, and finally fell a dove. Wine brings death.
Yes, King Jing is a man who has lived two lifetimes.
Luo Jing in his previous life was actually a very simple person. He knew that he was not healthy and could not speak, and everyone in the palace looked down on him. He usually kept a low profile and was very careful. Do not fight for favor, do not cause trouble, and even fear that the father and the emperor will hate to show his face in front of others.
The mother died early, and the father did not want to see him. The hardships and hardships during the period are of course needless to say. Relying on the title of the dumb fifth prince, Luo Jing lived to adulthood, instead of dying inexplicably like some princes in the palace.
Eighteenth, the big wedding married the Xiao family as the concubine. The Xiao family is the niece of the current queen's concubine. Luo Jing knew that this was a means used by the queen to guard against her dumb, and didn't say anything else. At that time, he didn't either. ability to resist.
After the big wedding, Luo Jing also saw the various unwillingness of the Xiao family.
It is impossible to say that it is not uncomfortable. But life was always going to pass, not to mention that this kind of contempt for Luo Jing had been seen since childhood, and he knew how to deal with it and how to adjust his mood.
In the Daxi Dynasty, there was a system of feudal feudal feudalism, and every prince had to go to the vassal area to become a vassal, and only the prince was left in Beijing. This is also the rule set by the Tai and Zu of the Daxi Dynasty, in order to ensure the inheritance of the throne, and not let the descendants of the Luo family kill each other for the throne to prevent future troubles.
As the fifth son of the current saint, Luo Jing naturally has to follow the old calendar. What's more, he has never been favored by Emperor Xi, and when he was just 20 years old, he was ordered to go to Jingzhou to become a vassal.
People with discerning eyes in Beijing know how unloved the fifth prince is, and Luo Jing knows it himself. As a dragon son, he actually suffers from a dark disease, and he can't blame his father for not wanting to see him.
Although Luo Jing is dumb, he is not stupid. The father and emperor hated himself since he was a child, and it was extremely rare to be able to get the title of a prince and have a fief as an adult. He also knew that he couldn't compare with other brothers, and he didn't even dare to have dissatisfaction in his heart, so he honestly went to the barren fiefdom.
In the Daxi Dynasty, the prince belonged to the iron hat king who was hereditary and irreplaceable. Sui Lu is only one item of rice, that is, there are 10,000 stones. In addition, there are expenses such as canonization, palace, marriage, funeral, etc., and are given to kitchen servants, Zhailang, shopkeepers and other miscellaneous servants, and are rewarded from time to time.
And the fiefs of the vassal belong to the feudal country, and the vassal can be ranked as a lord to rule the people, and the vassal can be divided into tin soil.
To put it bluntly, the fiefs belong to the vassal king's own territory, and the taxes and silver paid under the rule of the territory are not handed over to the imperial court, but to the vassal king. It also has great judicial and personnel powers, and is above all government offices. Except for the long history, the guard commander, and the guard commander, all other officials can be appointed by the vassal king himself.
In this regard, Luo Jing is still extremely satisfied. After all, it is his own territory, and life will definitely not be as restrained and depressing as in the palace. He didn't ask for much, he just wanted to be clean and peaceful, free from competition in the world.
Even if the fiefdom is very barren, even if the zongren's manor sees the father and the emperor never remember that he always drags his salary and does not pay it, even if the taxation of his fiefdom is not enough for the expenditure of the fiefdom, he can't exploit the common people. It made him extremely embarrassed, and he still endured it.
Because he knows that he has no capital and is not qualified to compete with other brothers, he is just an imperfect person. Why should he fight
He lives in isolation in Jingzhou, which is thousands of miles away from the capital, and ignores some things that happen in the capital...
Even if King Jin, who was also a brother later, turned against the prince who was about to become the emperor after the death of his father, and became emperor, he still did not pay attention.
Because he knew that no one would find it annoying for a prince like him who couldn't fight for anything.
Luo Jing is not a fool. He knows that the status of the vassal king is sensitive, so he has been a low-key person since he became a vassal. He is respectful to the court, and never takes government affairs under his rule. Shi Si, he never dared to interfere with military power.
He didn't want to attract attention, he just wanted to be an idle king, he didn't ask for anything but peace.
His estimate was also correct, but unfortunately he misestimated the heart of a man who became an emperor from a vassal king, and also misestimated the prudence of King Jin.
King Jin himself started the rebellion of the vassal king. Although he made a rebellion against his own brother, it is impossible for him to be unaware of the potential threat of the vassal king to the imperial power.
As soon as his position was settled, he began to clean up the various vassal kings. The first one was King Qi who helped him with his compatriots to support him as the emperor, not to mention Luo Jing, who had never been favored by the previous emperor and was extremely mediocre and low-key.
But King Jin, oh, he was already Emperor Jin at that time, and he had just ascended the throne, so he still cared more about his image. Knowing that King Qi's methods of cleaning up his brothers were too ugly, the two remaining brothers, King Yun King Jing, were extremely mediocre, stupid and even incomplete, so he put down the butcher knife in his hand for a while, and even He also repeatedly sent rewards to show his kindness.
Luo Jing had indeed lived in peace for two years, but his heart was not stable. Because he now understands that things are not that simple.
Sure enough, when the situation in the dynasty stabilized, Emperor Jin began to move constantly, finding all kinds of reasons and excuses to accept the rights in the hands of the vassal, leaving only the hereditary iron hat and annual salary, and even restricting the vassal. You are only allowed to move in your own palace, and you can't go anywhere, which is like imprisonment.
In order to dispel Emperor Jin's vigilance, Luo Jing even converted to Buddhism in the mansion. His conversion to Buddhism was not a fake, but he really started to eat fast and recite Buddhism. Except that he did not shave and did not become a monk, it was almost the same as a monk.
That being the case, Emperor Jin did not let him go, and was still pressing on him step by step.
At that time, Luo Jing had no love for life, and the reason why he survived was because he wanted to protect his blood and his wife.
Luo Jing in the previous life was also a person who didn't love women, which might have something to do with his incompleteness and indifferent temperament. There were only four women in the backyard, just like in this life.
It's just that at that time he finally had the idea of continuing the incense, not like this life. Luo Jing had a son and two daughters in his last life, one son and one daughter were born by Princess Jing, Princess Xiao, and the other daughter was born in Concubine Qiao's belly.
Luo Jing in the previous life died at the age of 30, and died of the dove wine rewarded by Emperor Jin.
In this life, when Luo Jing came back, it happened to be the day before he left for Jingzhou.
In the last life, Luo Jing was also seriously ill on this day. Even if he was ill, he still endured the pain and ordered to set off, in order to make the father and emperor more annoying.
In this life, he was seriously ill, but he returned in exchange for himself in the previous life. At that time, he still ordered to set off, but after all, many things have changed.
