Chapter 277: Between Mother and Son
That night, the crown prince Zhu Youzhu returned to the East Palace, and the emperor Zhu Jianshen, who had been resting in the imperial study for three days, also returned to the harem. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
As soon as the emperor returned to the harem, he naturally went to the Empress Dowager Zhou's Cining Palace to ask for peace, and by the way, he told the Empress Dowager Zhou about the crown prince Zhu Youjiao.
"Emperor, now that the mourning family is old, these things will be handled by the emperor. Empress Dowager Zhou rubbed the Buddha beads in her hand and sighed lightly.
Before, because Zhu Youzhu was her only grandson, she naturally wanted to help the East Palace, but now, the little prince has also been raised under the name of Wan Guifei of Guan Ju Palace. In this way, it is not easy for the Empress Dowager Zhou to say anything about these harem matters. After all, the palms and backs of these hands are full of meat!
Although, Zhu Youzhu has stayed by her side since she was a child and has grown up, and the love between her ancestors and grandchildren in the past ten years is naturally not comparable to that of the little prince. However, she is the queen mother, if her attitude is more obvious, won't she let her mouth go and push her grandson to the cusp?
Besides, the young son is innocent. Although the little prince has only been raised by his side for a few days, the Empress Dowager Zhou's feelings for this little grandson are also very deep. After all, a lovely child, a lovely child who has no mother at birth, is very pitiful after all.
Now, looking at Wan Guifei's kneeling, since Empress Dowager Zhou is relieved to hand over the little prince to Wan Guifei's hands, how can she meddle in the matter again? Although, in her heart, she still values Zhu Youzhu more!
Therefore, after the emperor said his arrangement, the Empress Dowager Zhou didn't say anything, just let the emperor watch it himself, and drove away the emperor Zhu Jianshen on the grounds that he was tired.
As a son, although Zhu Jianshen has always been not very close to the Empress Dowager Zhou, he also understands the thoughts of the Queen Mother. After all, isn't what the queen mother is most concerned about is the descendants of the Zhu family? Now, in the East Palace and the Guan Ju Palace, the crown prince and the little prince, the palms and backs of their hands are full of meat, it is no wonder that the queen mother has such an attitude. All this is not because the queen mother is indifferent to her grandchildren, but because she can't be enthusiastic.
"Mother, rest in peace. And the son took his leave. Zhu saw a deep bow, turned around and left Cining Palace.
The reason why he came to Cining Palace was just to fulfill his duty, and he didn't plan for the Empress Dowager Zhou to give any opinions.
After the emperor left, Zhou raised his head and stood up, holding the back of the hand of the great eunuch Wang Ruhai, but sighed softly.
The black clouds are crushing the city and the city is about to be destroyed, and the mountain rain is about to come, and the wind is full of buildings. With the return of Zhang'er, this harem is probably going to be lively again.
After Emperor Zhu Jianshen left Empress Dowager Zhou's Cining Palace, he went directly to Wan Guifei's Guan Ju Palace. He knew that in the past few days, in the entire harem, the place that has suffered the greatest pressure is probably the Guan Ju Palace of Wan Guifei.
This time, Guan Ju Palace, Chengqian Palace and East Palace have always been quite gaps, and this time, Concubine Ji Shu's death is so strange, everyone in the palace is probably focused on the head of Wan Guifei Wan Zhen'er. After all, don't talk about others, even when Concubine Ji Shu just died, didn't he also suspect Concubine Wan? It was only later, after those princes swore that Concubine Ji Shu died of a disease similar to the plague, that he softened in Wan Zhen's aggrieved and strong tears.
As a result, Concubine Wan now has a little prince under her name, and she is one of the only two princes in the royal family. Because this little prince was raised under the name of Wan Guifei, the threat to the crown prince Zhu Youzhu was not too big. After the crown prince Zhu Youzhu returns to the palace, what will he think of this matter?
Concubine Ji Shu's death, coupled with the little prince in Guan Ju Palace, I am afraid that the world will suspect that it was Concubine Wan Guifei's hand on Concubine Ji Shu, and then paved the way for her son. After all, without the support of his mother, in the future, Zhu Youzhang's road to the harem will become extremely difficult.
If we add this, Wan Guifei blows the pillow wind in the emperor's ears from time to time? So, will this little prince, who has just been raised under the name of Wan Guifei, also be able to compete for the position of the prince in the future? Everyone in the harem has a lot of thoughts, but they don't know. After all, all this still depends on Emperor Zhu Jianshen's thoughts.
Emperor Zhu Jianshen did not tell anyone about this matter, but did not step into the harem during the three days that the prince knelt in the Fengxian Palace. Just when everyone was speculating about this, the first night when Emperor Zhu Jianshen returned to the harem, he went to Wan Guifei's Guan Ju Palace.
How could everyone not understand the meaning of this? Zhu Jianshen didn't know that it was not good to go to see Wan Guifei at this time. However, he really can't rest assured that Wan Guifei is there. After all, he didn't have to think about it to know what kind of pressure Guan Ju Palace had been under in the harem in the past few days.
I believe in Zhen'er, and I love Zhen'er, and I still doubt her, so what about my son Zhu Youjiao, who has just returned from the expedition? I'm afraid I am even more suspicious of Concubine Wan. Coupled with those people in the harem who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, you can imagine how difficult Zhen'er's life has been in the past few days.
Therefore, Emperor Zhu Jianshen knew that it was wrong, but he still came to the Guan Ju Palace with a sigh all the way, and personally held up Wan Guifei's hand.
"Zhen'er, I've wronged you these days. Zhu Jianshen patted Wan Zhen'er's hand, and blamed himself very guiltily. This time, in order to appease the people's hearts and stabilize the government, Zhu Jianshen did not explain the cause of Wan Guifei's death to his son Zhu Youzhang. After all, it was the plague, albeit a suspicion. But this suspected plague is enough to make everyone in the harem panic. Therefore, in order to calm people's hearts, Zhu Jianshen did not tell his son the real cause of Ji Shufei's death, only that Ji Shufei died suddenly.
Of course, because Zhu Youzhu knew that his mother was still alive and knew the whole story of the matter better than anyone in the palace, he naturally didn't ask more. But the problem is that his silence made everyone in the harem even more worried.
For example, this Wan Guifei of Guan Ju Palace.
At this time, when Concubine Wan Guifei saw that the emperor came to see her, she couldn't help wiping her tears, and said very aggrieved, "Your Majesty, Zhen'er is not aggrieved." At this time, she can only be aggrieved if she is wronged. After all, since the little prince hugged his Guan Ju Palace, everyone in the harem has been staring at him.
She wasn't afraid of the others, but what about the queen and Concubine Bai Xian? Those two are also likely to raise the little prince. And now, there are several young concubines in the palace who are about to give birth. Concubine Wan had to be worried.
