Chapter 60: Twelve Years of Joy

Back then, since Zhu Youzhen took Jiang Ning'an to An'an 6 Prefectures to be sealed, his imperial brother and his party were all sent out of the capital by Zhu Youzhu for a reason, no matter how big or small, whether it was the official of the six departments and the thirteen provinces, or the auxiliary minister of the palace, or the minister of the five temples and six departments, there was no trace in the court, or even in the capital. εε…«Β€δΈ€Β€β—ŽChinese .,,'.,8-1,z-、.'c'om

If the official position is quite high, he will be demoted to several levels of position, and serve in the local administration, according to the original official position, he will be demoted to the prefect, the governor, the county, and the inspection; Some of those with low official positions were dismissed directly, and some were transferred to remote places to serve as some minor officials who had not yet entered the stream.

Since Zhu Youqing and the officials of his party left the capital, no one in the DPRK has mentioned Zhu Houzhao's life experience, and the rumors about Zhu Houzhao's life history back then only caused some trouble in the DPRK and China, and did not spread to the people.

It stands to reason that after so many years, no one in the palace should mention Zhu Houzhao's life experience, let alone dare to spread this absurd statement to Zhu Houzhao's ears.

But in this palace, there are a few things that are not afraid of death, not only mentioning Zhu Houzhao's life experience, but also spreading this to Zhu Houzhao's ears!

Four years have passed since this incident, and in the past four years, no one has mentioned this matter, and even Zhang Junfang is about to forget about it, but now Zhu Houzhao suddenly asked about Zhang Junfang, and Zhang Junfang was naturally surprised. She also knew that the reaction should not be too big, and now she needs to be calm.

Zhang Junyu forcibly suppressed the trembling in his heart, only stunned for a moment, and asked, "Why did Zhao'er ask this?" ”

However, the tone in which she spoke was no longer as delicate and naughty as at the beginning, but she returned to her normal attitude, after all, it was impossible to say that there was no reaction at all, Zhang Junfang just grasped it properly.

Zhu Houzhao didn't directly tell her why she asked this, but just pouted and asked very aggrievedly: "Queen Mother, is it or not?" ”

Seeing that he asked like this, Zhang Junfang was also anxious. A pair of beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly, her lips opened slightly, and her eyes were full of surprise, she said: "Zhao'er was born in October when the queen mother was pregnant. Where will there be a fake, Zhao'er, why are you suddenly asking this? Didn't someone say something to you? ”

Zhu Houzhao still pouted, nodded slightly, and just responded. But he didn't say much.

Zhang Junfang then asked, "What did they tell you?" ”

They said...... Say...... Tell the story...... Zhao'er was picked up by his father from outside...... The child ......" Zhu Houzhao was really scared, and as he spoke, he cried, and now this tear-stained appearance on his face really made Zhang Junyu feel bad.

However, hearing Zhu Houzhao say this, not what he said back then, Zhang Junyu was somewhat comforted in his heart, at least there was no East Window matter, and no one dared to bring up the old thing again.

Zhang Junfang took a Jinpa from his waist and wiped the tears on Zhu Houzhao's face. "Fool, where can the child you pick up be the prince." ”

When Zhu Houzhao heard this, he was a little confused, and he raised his hand to wipe the tears in his eyes very casually, and asked puzzledly: "Queen Mother, why can't the child you pick up be the prince?" ”

Zhang Junyu said with a smile: "Because the prince is the prince, he will be the king of a country in the future, if you are really the child picked up by your father, then your father is not a fool, is he willing to make his own world become someone else's?" ”

Zhu Houzhao is now five and a half years old. Swastika Β€ VIIIΒ§β—Ž?δΈ€? The swastika 、、、. '8, it was when he was full of curiosity about the world, and when he encountered any questions he didn't understand, he would ask whatever he wanted.

Zhang Junyu just finished speaking, and Zhu Houzhao asked again: "That." What happens if it's a picked up child? ”

"The child who picked it up," Zhang Junfang was also willing to answer carefully, and said, "Presumably...... Won't be as favored as Zhao'er, if ...... If the mother who adopted him has a higher status in the palace, then that child. It should also be respected. ”

"Oh," Zhu Houzhao nodded as if he didn't understand, and said, "So the queen mother, Zhao'er is so favored, and she is the crown prince, she must not have picked it up by her father." ”

Zhang Junyu bowed slightly, and agreed: "Hmm." ”

Seeing Zhu Houzhao smiling happily, Zhang Junyu asked again: "Zhao'er, you tell the queen mother, which bastard told you this, and the queen mother will teach her a lesson for you." ”

Hearing Zhang Junyu say this, Zhu Houzhao remembered that incident, and he also puffed up angrily: "Hmph! That's it...... That ......"

Saying that, Zhu Houzhao was speechless for a while, and said to Zhang Junyu: "Queen Mother, Zhao'er doesn't know what their names are. ”

Although Zhu Houzhao didn't know what their names were, he always remembered where he heard them, so she asked, "Then where did you hear them?" ”

Zhu Houzhao said directly without thinking: "Zhao'er went to Renshou Palace yesterday to play with the imperial grandmother, but the imperial grandmother was not there, so Zhao'er sat there and waited for a while, and later, two bad sisters said that Zhao'er was not the queen mother's child, but was picked up by the father from the mass grave outside the palace. ”

Zhang Junfang suppressed the anger in his heart, but frowned and said unhappily: "How can this be reasonable, how can you say that." ”

After that, Zhang Junyu stood up, Zhu Houzhao saw her like this, so he also stood up, Zhang Junyu bowed his head slightly, looked at him and said, "Zhao'er, you wait here, the queen mother will go to Renshou Palace to settle accounts with them." ”

Zhu Houzhao finally smiled, nodded and said, "Well, the queen mother is going quickly, you must spank them." ”

After the words fell, Zhang Junyu also went back to the main hall and took Nan Su and Mei Dai to Renshou Palace together.

When she arrived at Renshou Palace, the Queen Mother was still supporting her with one hand, lying on her side on the soft couch, rubbing her shoulders and beating her back by the people, her eyes were slightly closed, as if she was taking a nap, this look was so unhappy!

At this point, everyone in the palace saluted with her and said in unison: "The slave and maid knock to see the queen." ”

Everyone shouted in unison, and woke up the queen mother, but the queen mother and Zhang Junfang have never been incompatible, and they have never spoken to a friendly person for many years.

Sitting up straight, he said in a strange manner: "Yo, what kind of wind is blowing today, and it actually blew the queen to the mourning family." ”

Zhang Junfang was not polite when he heard this, sat down directly, and said: "If you have nothing to do, you will go to the Three Treasures Palace, and the concubine will come over today, so she naturally has something to say." ”

Saying that, Zhang Junyu looked around for a while, and then said: "I didn't expect the furnishings of Renshou Palace to be so simple, it wasn't the queen mother's moon on weekdays, and they all took out of the palace." Have you offered for your royal family's little ancestor? ”

When the Queen Mother heard that Zhang Junyu's words were both contemptuous and deliberately mentioned the decline of the Wang family, she answered with a thorn in her mouth, and only said: "Say something quickly." The Renshou Palace of the mourning family is not a place for you to spill. ”

Unexpectedly, when Zhang Junfang heard her insults, he was even more inferior, and said: "If the concubine wants to spill, she has to find a feng shui treasure." Look at you here, this family is bare-walled, and the concubines are not in the mood to sprinkle if they want to. ”

"Really?" The Queen Mother also said: "If you don't want to come, the mourning family won't keep you, the door is there, you go by yourself." ”

"The concubine will leave," Zhang Junfang deliberately dragged out his voice, and then said: "It's just that before leaving today, the concubine will take someone away from you." ”

Zhang Junfang was inevitably more convenient during the final interrogation. This is a person.

"Okay," the Queen Mother also dragged out her voice, "as long as you go, what is it to take someone away." ”

Zhang Junfang raised the corners of his lips slightly, looked at Shu Yi who was standing on the side behind the Queen Mother, and said: "I'm tired of Aunt Shu Xi, summon everyone up and down this Renshou Palace, and this palace has something to ask." ”

Shu Yi didn't look at the Queen Mother's face this time, and directly lowered his eyebrows and responded: "Yes." ”

And in the next moment, the temple was full. Tall, short, fat and thin, everything, although there are not many people, there are many flowers.

All of them were neatly arranged. Zhang Junyu stood up at this time, looked at the faces of the two columns one by one from right to left, and finally moved to the front of them, before he said: "The things that this palace wants to ask are actually very simple. ”

Zhang Junfang said. He secretly glanced at the faces of these people, and then asked, "Last evening, who was talking nonsense and saying some ridiculous things in the prince's ear?" ”

After saying that, Zhang Junfang looked at their faces again, but saw that everyone's complexions were not abnormal, but they all lowered their heads slightly, and they couldn't see the change in their eyes, so Zhang Junfang said: "Raise your heads and let the palace take a look." ”

The people raised their heads in response, but Zhang Junfang still didn't see the panic in their eyes, so she said: "If you take the initiative to stand up, you can avoid the pain of flesh and skin, but don't make this palace a bad person." ”

After saying that, Zhang Junyu saw that no one of them stood up, so she looked sideways at Mei Dai and said, "Mei Dai, you go back to Kunning Palace and call the prince." ”

"Yes."

Mei Dai responded, Zhang Junyu replied quickly, looked at these people, and then said, "It must be one of you." ”

Zhang Junfang said that there was only one person, and sure enough, two people looked at each other secretly, and Zhang Junfang immediately said: "Meidai, you don't have to go." ”

After that, Zhang Junyu walked up to one of the people and said softly, "Give the other one out." ”

When the words fell, the people immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and said, "Niangniang!" Mother's life! The slave just wanted to joke with the prince at that time, there was really no other malice, Niangniang! Please, spare the slave this time, mother......"

Zhang Junyu lowered his eyes and looked at her, and only said: "Give the other one out, and this palace can consider whether to spare you or not." ”

Without waiting for this person to accuse himself, another person from the capital had already stood up by himself, knelt down and said, "Niang Niang spare her life!" The slave doesn't dare! The slave really doesn't dare anymore! Empress! ”

Zhang Junfang looked at her sideways and said, "Don't you think it's too late to take the initiative to stand up now?" ”

The people didn't dare to speak, Zhang Junyu put away his gaze, no longer looked at them, and only said: "This palace will not kill you." ”

Before Zhang Junfang could speak, the two of them all kowtowed and said, "Xie Niangniang!" Thank you for not killing! The slave will not dare! ”

Hearing this, Zhang Junyu smiled coldly and said, "I'll give you a stiff punishment." ”

Zhang Junyu turned around and left, but the two of them sat on their calves as if they had been hit.

As for their fear, it is naturally because the punishment is too severe.

The punishment of the stiff body is to sit and bend forward, that is, the victim stands facing north, bows down his arms, and holds his feet with his hands, during which he is not allowed to bend his body or move, and this posture lasts for an hour. As a result, the light one was dizzy, lying on the ground, and half of his body was paralyzed; In severe cases, bleeding from the mouth and nose, vomiting became a disease, and died until death.

Compared with directly giving death, this punishment is only afraid that it will be more tormenting, even if it is given a rod to kill, it will only hurt for a moment, and death will be more pleasant in the end.

When Zhang Junyu returned to Kunning Palace, he saw Zhu Houzhao and Zhu Xiurong sitting in the hall together, eating a plate of candied fruit together, and the brother and sister were talking and laughing, and they were happy. Seeing them like this, Zhang Junfang was naturally very relieved in his heart, and when everyone saw her come back, they looked at the two little ancestors again, and then came out and explained: "Niangniang, there is only one plate of candied fruit left in the imperial dining room, and the chef said that the rest of the concubines are going to make wine." ”

Hearing this, Zhang Junyu didn't blame, but when he heard that Concubine Yue took candied fruit to make wine, he couldn't help but wonder and said, "Winemaking? ”

Duren nodded and said, "Yes." ”

"Can preserves be used to make wine?" Zhang Junwei became more and more puzzled.

Du Humane: "It must be a fruit wine, and if something is missing, it will be replaced by candied fruit." ”

Zhang Junyu frowned slightly, and said with a slight smile: "I have to try it when I change the Japanese Palace." ”

I thought that Zhu Houzhao and Zhu Xiurong were fascinated by eating, and it wasn't until Zhang Junfang entered the hall that he knew that the queen mother was back, so he greeted him and asked, "Queen mother, have you helped Zhao'er teach them a lesson?" ”

Zhang Junfang said: "Of course, it's a lesson, as soon as the queen mother makes a move, there is nothing that can't be done." ”

When the words fell, I heard Nan Su say: "Niangniang, Zhang Yu is here." ”

When Zhang Junfang heard this, he really saw Zhang Yu walking in with a smile on his face, bowed down and said, "Niangniang, Your Majesty is invited." ”

Hearing Zhang Yu say this, Zhang Junyu immediately became interested, raised the corners of his lips, and smiled, and then went to Jiangxue Xuan with him.

To Jiang Xuexuan, Zhang Junyu didn't see Zhu Youjiao's figure, she was not in a hurry, only to see Zhang Yu make a gesture to invite her into the side hall, and said "please", she pushed the door into the house in response.

Fang pushed the door in, and before he could see it, there was a pungent fragrance of roses, and the hall was dark, Zhang Junfang looked fixedly, and saw that the ground was covered with rose petals.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Junyu was stunned, never realizing that the door of the house had been closed by Zhang Yu, and then someone hugged her behind, that warm embrace, a very familiar embrace, as well as his unique taste, warm breath, which she could never forget in her life.

Zhu Youzhu clinged to her ear and whispered: "Zhu'er, today is the twelfth year of our marriage. ”

Zhang Junyu smiled shallowly, and said angrily: "I have been married for ten years, and I have never seen Your Majesty like this." ”

"This is to compensate you, and every year after that, I will compensate you."

"Really?"

Zhu Youzhu didn't answer, only rubbed in her ear.

Zhang Junyu turned around in his arms, leaned back slightly, stared at him, and asked with a smile: "Your Majesty, what are you doing?" ”

"I want to eat you."

"What if the concubine doesn't follow?"

"If you don't depend on it, you have to rely on it." (To be continued.) )
