Chapter 116: The Elephant of Zhongxing
Zizhao couldn't believe it, he and Shang Jun had only met once three years ago, and when he returned to the palace this time, he was originally full of expectations, but who knew that such a change had happened as soon as he entered the palace. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Ming Zhijun only had time to leave a sentence in his ear: "Live well!" and was taken away by the attendants. Shang Jun immediately arranged for his personal guards to send him out of the palace, and even the queen did not know his whereabouts.
That night, Mingzhijun sat quietly on the steps of the courtyard of the Forbidden Palace, looking at the moon in the sky with tears in his eyes, thinking of Zizhao, who had never left his side. Because Chen Yan also participated in the concealment of Zizhao's identity, he was imprisoned in the forbidden palace together. Xiao Nian was sent to work in other palaces. Because after being imprisoned in the forbidden palace, Ming Zhijun is no longer qualified to be served by the palace maids, and all the trivial matters of life have to be done by himself.
"Madam, it's cool at night, you can add a piece of clothing!" Chen Yan came out with a coat and draped it on Ming Zhijun.
Ming Zhijun nodded gratefully, "Yan'er, we will all be from the Forbidden Palace in the future, there is no more lady, call me Zhijun!"
Chen Yan shook his head, "It's all in the Forbidden Palace, what palace rules do I care about him! In my heart, you are Madame!"
"You, your temper is too stubborn, in fact, when I was in the palace, I had the opportunity to send you back to the palace, but you refused. If you had returned to the palace at that time, maybe you would have been favored by the king now, and you wouldn't have to follow me into the forbidden palace!"
"I'm not interested in being a lady, a concubine or anything!" She was originally just the daughter of a city lord in the Xisheng Kingdom of the Great Shang Country, and she was very self-aware of her background and appearance. Even if he gets the favor of Shang Jun, he can't climb up, so why dirty his body?
"And what are you interested in?"
"Me!" Chen Yan sat down next to Ming Zhijun, "I'll wait for Zizhao to return to the palace, you go out of this forbidden palace, and then ask Shang Jun to give me to you and let me be the first female official by your side, I will be satisfied!"
Ming Zhijun chuckled, "Zizhao has been out of the palace for at least ten years, and what will happen after that, I don't know yet!
"Of course! Zizhao is smart and clever, coupled with the secret arrangement between you and the king, he will definitely be able to learn a lot of truths from that bachelor called Whatpan, and he will definitely be a smart and polite prince at that time. After he gets the fief, take you over, and I can follow you and be your first female official!"
"Hey! I was afraid that he would leak his mouth, so I didn't dare to tell him the truth. Now that he has just returned to the palace, he is about to be sent out of the palace, and I don't know how uncomfortable this kid is, he is only a seven-year-old child! I don't know if my original decision was wrong!" Ming Zhijun felt a little regretful for the first time.
"Of course that's right! If we hadn't done that that day, maybe the grass would have grown on the grave of our son Zhao!" she said in a low voice, "I have secretly inquired, in the three years since we left the palace, three more princes have died in the palace! One is seriously ill, one drowned, and the other was bitten to death by a snake, if there are no ghosts here, I don't believe it!"
Ming Zhijun nodded, she didn't expect Zizhao to be able to ascend the throne in the future, as long as she could save her life, and then get a relatively rich fief and be a prince at ease.
At the same time, Shang Jun and the High Priest were playing chess in the secret room, and all the attendants were arranged to go out, and no one could hear their conversation.
"Mo Bai, are you sure that kid has the image of Zhongxing?" Shang Jun casually dropped a chess piece and asked in his mouth.
"Prince Zizhao's face is purple, his life is extremely noble, and with the dream that Mrs. Ming had before giving birth, Lao Chen is sure that he does have the appearance of Zhongxing. ”
"That's good!" Shang Jun nodded, "I don't think I'm a good monarch, and I'm impatient to be a good monarch, as long as I can keep this ancestral business in this life, and then hand it over to future generations smoothly." If Zizhao really has such a fate, I am willing to cultivate him well, and it depends on him whether Dashang can prosper in the future. I really don't like the Prince's style. ”
"The crown prince was raised by the queen, and the queen's mother country, Dongqi Kingdom, originally advocated the respect of the strong, and she used this way to cultivate the prince, so the prince developed a strong character. ”
Shang Jun shook his head, "If it's just tough, it doesn't matter if you're a monarch, it's also a monarch." But he acted ruthlessly at a young age, and a few days ago he actually punished his servants to death because of a small mistake, which is too much!"
The high priest looked at the chessboard silently, and Shang Jun drove his chess pieces to a dead end in a few words. In terms of far-reaching thinking, no one can compare to the Shang Jun in front of him, but unfortunately, he is lazy by nature, loves beauty, and is unwilling to care about political affairs, otherwise he will definitely be able to become a generation of Ming Jun.
"Mo Bai, you are too careless in this chess move, I don't have a taste to win, let's play another game!"
The archpriest smiled, retracted the pieces, and restarted.
In the Queen's Palace.
Prince Ziyun is practicing swordsmanship under the moon, he has been guided by a famous teacher since he was a child, although he is only ten years old, but he already has a good move.
The queen stood beside him, looking at him with a smile on her face, her eyes full of pride.
Wen Meng, the queen's personal palace maid, stood behind her with a cup of tea, and said with a smile: "Queen, the prince's swordsmanship is becoming more and more proficient. ”
"Since he was a child, I have found a famous teacher to teach him, if he can't practice to this point, what qualifications do he have to be my son?"
"If it is said that a famous teacher teaches, which prince in this palace does not have a famous teacher to teach, but according to the slave maid, there is no one who is as good as the prince. ”
Wen Meng This is a typical sycophant, although the princes in this palace have all invited famous teachers to guide, but there is still a gap between famous teachers and famous teachers. The prince's master is a top master specially invited by the queen from the Eastern Qi Kingdom. But the queen listened very comfortably, and the corners of her mouth involuntarily rose.
"By the way, did you inquire about it?"
"When Mrs. Ming entered the Forbidden Palace, she did act according to the rules of the Forbidden Palace, in addition to two meals a day, she also had to do textile and embroidery work, and the king did not give her special privileges. As for Prince Zizhao, he was sent out of the palace by the king, but he only knew that he was going southwest, but he couldn't find out where he went. ”
The queen furrowed her eyebrows, "I always feel that there is a problem here, but I can't find what the problem is. ”
"Niangniang, don't worry, the prince is so good, even if there are a hundred princes of Zizhao, it won't matter. You can wait to be the queen mother with peace of mind!"
The queen glared at her with a smile, "It's not important to speak, the queen mother is still there, don't talk nonsense!"
Wen Meng pretended to smack his mouth and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, the slave is wrong! ”
The queen shook her head with a smile, picked up the teacup, and sent it to the prince who had just collected it. Wen Meng is right, I have such an excellent son, who am I afraid of?
