Shang Jun glanced back at You'er, "Who said I was going to kill your mother?"

Yu'er threw herself to Mingzhijun's side and hugged her tightly: "Mother!"

Shang Jun suddenly realized that he seemed to have become a bad person in the mind of this little guy, he glanced at Ming Zhijun, "You get up and talk, don't let Yu'er misunderstand!"

"Yes!" Ming Zhijun stood up, and Yu'er snuggled up to her tightly, her little hands still tugging at her mother's skirt, and her eyes looked at Shang Jun vigilantly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Shang Jun smiled bitterly, after such a while, was he hated by this girl? No, it should be a kid. He stretched out his hand and said to You'er, "Come here!"

Yu'er looked at her mother, Ming Zhijun nodded encouragingly to her, and gently pushed her back again, before she walked towards Shang Jun with some hesitation.

Shang Jun looked at this cute little face and thought that he was his son, and he was even happier than he was when he knew that he was a princess just now. As a monarch, in addition to governing the country well, it is natural to have more sons so that he can inherit his royal business in the future. After all, the child mortality rate in this era is too high.

"What are you going to do, do you want to keep your identity hidden?" Shang Jun looked at You'er, but he was asking Ming Zhijun.

Mingzhi Jun didn't dare to raise his head, and replied respectfully: "It's all up to the king!"

"Hmph, you're looking for me to call the shots now, what are you doing earlier?" he was very unhappy that Ming Zhijun was hiding from him about raising his son.

Mingzhijun wisely chose not to say anything, just silently waiting.

Shang Jun thought for a while and said, "That's it, tomorrow I will order you to go to Dongshan Palace to pray for blessings, and you take your concubine to live for a while, and take the opportunity to restore his identity." When the time is right, I will take your mother and son back to the palace. Still," he paused, "you have to be ready, you have to pay something for this." ”

Ming Zhijun knelt down and said, "The concubine is willing to bear any punishment!"

She didn't know what Shang Jun and his mother were talking about, and when she saw her mother kneeling down again to plead guilty, she turned around and said, "Father, has Mother done something wrong again? Why should she be punished? If it's because of those flowers, I'll pick some more and come back to you, okay?"

Shang Jun stroked his back, "Concubine, you have to remember that anyone who does something wrong should pay for it. Your mother has done a great wrong thing, so she must be punished. ”

"Then please ask your father to punish your mother, and your mother is willing to be punished!"

Shang Jun glanced at Ming Zhijun, "You have taught him very well, and you know filial piety! You should get up first! Concubine, whoever makes a mistake should be punished, my father is the monarch of the country, and the words cannot be changed once they have been spoken." You have to keep that in mind, too!"

Yu'er still wanted to plead, but Ming Zhijun stopped him with his eyes.

The next day, Ming Zhijun took Yu'er, Chen Yan and Xiao Nian to Dongshan Palace to pray for blessings. This incident caused quite a stir in the palace, after all, Ming Zhijun was just an unknown lady before. However, Shang Jun controlled the development of the situation, and soon, Mingzhijun's mother and son were forgotten by the palace people.

When he arrived at the palace, Ming Zhijun changed his men's clothes for his concubine according to Shang Jun's instructions.

Yu'er pulled the clothes on her body, looking dissatisfied, "Mother, why do I wear this kind of clothes?

Mingzhijun shook his head, "Concubine, you are a man, so you have to wear men's clothes, and you can no longer wear the princess clothes before." ”

"Man?" she thought for a moment, "Is it the same as those brothers in the palace?"

"Yes, your father also changed your name, and you will be called Zizhao from now on. ”

"Zifei, I used to call Zifei!"

Mingzhijun used a tree branch to write the words "Zhao" and "妱" on the ground, "Zhao'er, you see, these two words are different. So, you have to remember that your name is Zizhao. ”

Zizhao hadn't started to learn to write yet, and these two words were like two earthworms fighting to him, but his mother said that his name was whatever he was, and it didn't sound different anyway.

"Okay, Zhao'er remembered!" Zizhao saluted in a proper manner, and Chen Yan suddenly laughed next to him. Zizhao was wearing a prince's costume but practicing the etiquette of a princess, which looked really awkward.

Mingzhijun couldn't help but smile and said, "Zhao'er, you are a man now, and you have to forget the women's etiquette you learned before." From today, Mother re-teaches you etiquette. ”

In the days that followed, Zizhao embarked on the path of learning how to be a polite prince. Although it was hard, he found that there was also an advantage to being a man, that is, his mother was more tolerant of him, and the dangerous things that he was not allowed to play before could now be played.

In this way, three years passed, and it was not until Zizhao turned seven years old that Shang Jun ordered to take Ming Zhijun's mother and son back to the palace. Because according to the rules of the Shang Dynasty, when the prince is raised to the age of seven, he must be officially included in the genealogy. If this time is missed, Zizhao will become a person who will not be recognized by the clan, and he will not even get a fief in the future.

Ming Zhijun returned to the palace with Zizhao, who was dressed as a prince, and immediately caused an uproar. The queen couldn't believe that Ming Zhijun had raised a son under her nose, and he was only three years younger than her son. But fortunately, his son has been made the crown prince, and this child who was quietly raised cannot threaten the prince's position for the time being. However, Mingzhi-kun dared to deceive her, which was the biggest insult to her as a queen. She looked at Ming Zhijun with a cold look in her eyes, thinking about how to clean her up when she returned to the harem.

It's a pity that the queen's plan has no chance to come true, because as soon as Ming Zhijun entered the palace, he pleaded guilty to Shang Jun, told him about concealing the identity of the prince, and asked Shang Jun to punish him. Shang Jun went down the ladder and ordered Ming Zhijun to be sent to the forbidden palace, and the newly returned Prince Zizhao was first raised by the queen.

At this time, the high priest stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister has just read the fate of Prince Zizhao, he is seventeen years old, he has a strong spirit, and he will punish his relatives, it is best to stay away from the palace, and after the evil energy on his body is purified, he will take him back to the palace to raise him." ”

"Seventeen?" Shang Jun muttered, "Does it take so long?"

The High Priest nodded.

The queen stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the High Priest is the wizard with the highest magic power in Dashang, and what he said must be right. It's not that the concubine is unwilling to raise Prince Zizhao, but she is really afraid that he will hurt the king, which will be sorry for the people of the world!"

The queen felt that the words of the high priest were like rain in a dry time, and she was worried that she didn't know what to do with this cheap son! Shang Jun raised Zizhao for her, and it was her responsibility if something happened. If it is raised well, it may hinder the prince in the future. If he can take the opportunity to send him out of the palace, ten years later, even if he can return to the palace again, he will not have the strength to compete with the prince.

"Okay then! Just as the high priest said, send Prince Zizhao out of the palace to raise him!"
