Treacherous Living in the Imperial Harem

Chapter 704: Mother and concubine are in trouble

Views:

Word of Concubine De's actions spread quickly, and even the few royal heirs were doing nothing but empress Gu Zhen, Mrs. Qingshu and Xuan Zhaoyi could not remain calm.

There are three princes and the King of Chu on the Queen's knees. Mrs. Qingshu is raising the second prince. The two princes on Xuan Zhaoyi's knees are all very old and seem to have entered school at about the same time. King Qin, Zhaoqing and the three princes have all started working hard. What happened to their children? Can you fall behind? !

Mrs. Qingshu and Xuan Zhaoyi were under less pressure because the second prince had a special background. Although Cui began to teach him personally, there was no special pressure. After all, it would be a bad thing if the second prince was too pushy, especially the eldest son of the emperor, Yun Fenghuang. Knee east.

As for Xuan Zhaoyi, she didn't want to let the second princess give way to Prince Qin Zhaoqing, but she was already very concerned about the second princess, and even more so if she was pregnant. Here we are. Therefore, with the idea of not taking the second princess to heart so that others would not talk about her pregnancy, she sent a literate dowry to urge the second princess to go to school: "Other mothers, queens, and concubines are all teaching, and I am the master. Don't delay the child. If you don't let the girl go to the end, what if she can take the exam for the first prize after studying well? She is really not happy to ask for permission, so don't be too restrained... lest she resent me for being too strict in the future. "

The Queen is under the greatest pressure.

Originally, it would be better for her if nothing happened to King Chu, because before King Chu fell ill, he looked very fat, lively and smart.

After that...it seemed like I had grown taller but not smarter.

The two subsequent legitimate sons, the tenth prince and the twelfth prince, are now hugging each other in their laps.

Looking at it that way, it seems that there is no need to consider the contest between the concubine and the legitimate son in the short term.

But things are not like that. The queen must maintain the influence of the middle palace. Otherwise, if King Qin takes the lead in gaining the favor of foreign ministers after entering school, something may happen!

But now, that responsibility falls squarely on the third prince.

"I can't fault that child so much." Gu Zhen sighed thoughtfully, "I know that the child is not suitable for the limelight, but with the King of Chu's behavior, there is no other way except to let him study hard!"

If you don't consider other things, just for the sake of the third prince, then the child will study hard, no matter how talented he is, at best he will be mediocre and boring, not seeking to attract any attention.

When he reaches his age, the queen will be able to find a fiefdom for him and become a vassal, and he will feel comfortable.

But now, the Central Palace requires the three princes to study hard in order to check and balance King Qin. At least, the prince of Xuanqing Palace must not be allowed to become a unique and beautiful existence praised by foreign ministers.

There is no doubt that this will put the third prince on the fire.

He was not well received by Chunjia in the first place, but if he was arguing with the prince raised by Concubine Min, what good would come of it

Not to mention anything else, let's just say that when the third prince is granted the title in the future, Concubine Min's favor will be enough to decide in one sentence whether he will get a relatively wealthy and livable vassal state or whether he will be sent to a remote corner of the countryside.

And the queen basically couldn't stop Yun Fenghuang from doing this.

Because the queen is not good at fighting for the emperor's favor.

Even if Yun Fenghuang was cruel and cruel, the third prince might not survive until that time, and he would disappear without knowing it.

"Your Majesty, if you don't have skin and hair, how can you attach yourself to it?" he advised the queen, "The one from the Xuanqing Palace is very ambitious. Otherwise, the prince would not be able to enroll in school. She started to teach the prince without even saying anything." , what does that mean? Don’t you just hope that King Qin can come out on top and be praised by his ministers? Even Princess Zhaoqing was forced to go to school together, which shows that the imperial concubine has great intentions! In that case, if not If the third prince endures it, won't it become more and more difficult for Yanfu Palace? The third prince relies on the empress for everything. Helping the empress is equivalent to helping himself. The third prince has always been sensible, so he knows the consequences of doing so and will definitely choose to listen. It’s what the queen said.”

Gu Zhen sighed: "It is precisely because that child is so good that I feel more and more that I cannot afford to wrong him."

She was wrong that except for the eighth prince who was forced on her, all the children were good, but she was too harsh on the third prince.

One reason is that this is the first child she has raised, the second reason is that Chunjia's indifferent attitude makes her feel very pitiful for the third prince, and the third reason is that the third prince is really good.

Who wouldn't like a cute, sensible and ruthless kid

At this moment, Gu Zhen felt extremely uncomfortable having to push him out as a shield.

Especially No, the third prince was summoned to the front. After listening to the instructions about studying hard, he quietly said "No" without any questions or objections.

Quiet and well-behaved, it makes people feel distressed.

The queen couldn't help but put him in her arms, coaxed him with gentle words for a while, and asked him if there was anything he wanted to ask for

The third prince hesitated for a while and said timidly: "The child wants to ask the mother to always take good care of the child. Always... um... often... um... hug the child often."

Before he finished speaking, he blushed shyly and lowered his head, not daring to look at the queen.

The queen was about to shed tears. She turned away to wipe them away and said with a forced smile: "Then the queen will hug me often from now on. When I grow up, I don't know if I will be willing to ask the queen to hug me." Woolen cloth?"

... Their mother is kind and her son is filial, but the Xuanqing Palace is already in a mess.

Yun Fenghuang never dreamed that the most difficult thing he had to face since entering the palace would be that his child had trouble studying.

Thinking back to when she first entered the palace and faced the embarrassment and frame-up of the leader Zhihong, she was not so helpless!

"Fifty words, just fifty words. What's wrong with me going to play after I've finished writing?! Is it so difficult to let me draw red without making me die!!!" He was always warm in front of the children. The gentle Concubine Min had a ferocious look on her face. She banged the table and roared sharply, "At my age, I can be described in a hundred words. I am a majestic prince. I am a little bit ambitious, okay?!" !!”

The King of Qin was trembling and wiping his tears: "Mother concubine, I know I'm wrong. I'll write it right away. Don't be angry. I must be obedient!"

That was the first time Qiu Nu said it, and Yun Fenghuang could basically calm down.

But at that time...

Yun Fenghuang not only did not calm down, but his tone instantly rose to a higher pitch: "I didn't say that at noon!!! I didn't say that yesterday!!! I didn't say that the day before yesterday!!! I'm going to play tricks on me again, Believe it or not, I’m going to hang me up and whip you?! If you don’t live up to expectations, I really think I can’t do anything to me, no!?!”

King Qin held his mouth and held back, but when he couldn't hold it back, he burst into tears with a cry of "Wow".

Yun Fenghuang continued to slap the table: "Shut up!"

The King of Qin immediately stopped speaking. Xu Quou was hurt a little faster and was frightened again. He couldn't stop hiccupping and his little face was red and he looked very pitiful.

Seeing this, the people on the left and right came to persuade me: "Madam, Dong Dong has already written more than forty words tomorrow, and there are not many words left. Why don't you just let it go? Dong Dong was very sad at that time."

"Is he sad? Is it easy for me?!" Yun Fenghuang was about to explode, pointing at the servant's nose and angrily yelling, "There are only a few words left. Why can't I finish writing and then go play?! I went to play two days ago I endured it and told him early in the morning that I would never do it again! What did he say at that time? He swore to give me a guarantee! So what happened? You cut corners! I was puzzled. I wrote those few more words. How unbearable is it?! Then he was just fishing like that when he started school. How did he slack off after Zhai Manjing entered school!? I have been telling me the story of a good start and a good end for three days. Do you think I am satisfied with the story? Damn it, not a single word of serious truth can be heard! You bastard, I have to send that person to me tomorrow, otherwise I..."

Before he finished speaking, a loud "dong" sound came from inside, which immediately stopped Zhaoqing's cry, and then stopped the exclamations of the palace people... Yun Fenghuang frowned, stopped scolding, took a deep breath, turned around and shouted: "What happened again?!"

After a while, a little palace maid came out with a frightened look and reported: "My Lady, Princess Zhaoqing accidentally fell down and injured her leg. It doesn't look good."

Yun Fenghuang's heart skipped a beat, and he said, "Isn't she very fond of drawing red? Why did she fall and hurt her leg? Did she fall off a stool?"

Ordinarily no, but for the two children to go to school, could she have specially ordered two sets of tables and chairs, and even the pen, ink, paper and inkstone to be specially made.

It can be said that in addition to forcing children to concentrate on their studies, Yun Fenghuang will not hesitate to find other places that can be convenient for them unless he can't think of it.

As for the chair Zhaoqing left on, even if he fell and was hit by the chair, there shouldn't be any serious harm

I heard the palace maid say tremblingly: "The master of the palace just wanted to sneak out to play. He said that the slaves would not be interested in writing if they looked at her, so he asked the slaves to turn around and face the wall. The slaves were stupid and said that the door was closed. If it was not opened, there would be movement. Dian Dong will definitely not be able to get out, who would have thought... who would have thought that Dian Dong would have climbed out of the window quietly!"

Then he broke his leg!

Yun Fenghuang: "..."

After fighting for a high position, going to the green plums in the east, surviving the displeasure of the Queen Mother, the misunderstandings of the concubines, and the suspicion of Chunjia, I finally became a noble concubine, with the emperor's favor, and many children. Seeing that the future is getting brighter, it turned out that I was stuck in a trap. That kind of place? ?

She was in a daze for a moment.

So the next month, when Mrs. Jiang heard the news that Princess Zhaoqing had broken her leg, she came to the palace to visit her. Yun Fenghuang stepped back, pulled Jiang's leg, and asked her: "Mother, please don't pray for me." If you don't want to go back, go to Shanyuan Temple and give it a try."

The reason why King Qin and Zhao Qing are so difficult to take care of must be because their biological mother is incompetent!

After all, King Qin's biological mother Zhao was illiterate, and even though Yi Xing'en was proficient in writing, it was just that.

If he were not his own flesh and blood, he would definitely be able to pass on his eagerness to learn when he was young, so his mother and concubine would not have to worry about it!

... If you don't feel like that after having a biological child, then don't think about it. It's definitely a question of Chunjia.

After listening to her daughter's complaint, Mr. Jiang couldn't laugh or cry, and said: "The same rice can feed all kinds of people. Even if the children of the same father and mother are raised in the same way, their temperaments will be different. I think my ninth brother and eleventh brother , is a clear example. Besides, the two young masters, who used to play around carefree, are suddenly detained in the house to go to school, how can they survive? I think about the school when I was a child, brothers How many of the sisters are really calm enough to enter school without any supervision?"

Yun Fenghuang said dissatisfied: "It is said that those who are close to red are red and those who are close to ink are black. I heard that Bidong never needed supervision when he studied literature and martial arts when he was young. Did he study hard as a child and be praised by his teachers and elders? These two children You've been raised by him since you landed, so why haven't you learned anything good?"
