The crown prince was pacing impatiently in the study with his hands behind his back, and the prince came in to report: "Your Highness, Your Highness the Ninth has arrived. β
When the prince heard this, he stopped and hurriedly said, "Pleaseβ"
As soon as the Nine Emperor Princes came in, they saw the prince's anxious expression, and without waiting for him to salute, they pulled him and asked, "Nine Emperor Brothers, are you here?" Today, he is in the court, and the second child begged his father for tricks, so that his father praised him. If I don't grasp that case again, I'm afraid that it will be thunder and rain again, and it will pass by. β
As he spoke, the prince sat back down at the table and ordered tea to be served.
The Nine Emperor Princes also sat down on the soft chair, and then said unhurriedly: "The imperial brother doesn't need to worry, the younger brother came here this time just for this matter." β
When the prince heard him say this, he was happy in his heart, and said, "But what are the eyebrows? β
The Nine Emperor Princes didn't sell Guan Zi either, and nodded directly.
The prince slapped the table excitedly, stood up and said, "Great! He turned out, patted the Nine Emperor Princes on the shoulder, and said, "The Nine Emperor Brothers are still so capable, I'm afraid there is nothing in this world that you can't do." β
The prince said that he had no intention, but the Nine Emperor Princes had the intention of listening, and he didn't want to dwell on this issue more, so he asked the prince: "Just leave the matter of the case to the younger brother." Just ......"
"Just what?" The prince asked eagerly, for fear that something would go wrong.
The Nine Emperor Princes smiled and said, "The younger brother just drags that Cui Youdao into the water, as for the matter of the second imperial brother, it depends on the imperial brother himself." β
The prince patted his chest confidently and sneered: "As long as you catch that old fox, the rest of the matter will be handled by the prince." Hmph, this time I have to let the second child walk around without eating anyway. β
The Nine Emperors looked at the prince's proud appearance, and his heart was mixed. This eldest brother of the crown prince, who has been kind to him since he was a child, was the object of his dependence and trust, until he knew the cause of his mother's death, and the warmth and kindness he used to have changed because of this terrible fact.
Sometimes looking at the stupid and impulsive behavior of this eldest brother, he can't help but want to dissuade him, but reason can always succeed in dissuading his behavior, so he let the prince be reckless day by day, and watched the second brother's power grow stronger day by day.
The crown prince was still there cursing loudly for the cunning of the second child and the partiality of his father, but the ninth prince had no intention of listening to it anymore. He interrupted the prince's self-talk and said with a smile: "Jingzhao Mansion has already handed over the case to the Criminal Department, and a group of criminals have also been escorted to the prison of the Criminal Department. The royal brother can write to the emperor and open the court as soon as possible. β
The prince smiled: "This prince will go to his father tomorrow." It's just that this matter of supervision and trial has to bother the Nine Emperor Brothers. With you, this palace is steady. β
The Nine Emperor Princes replied with a smile: "As soon as the imperial brother orders, the younger brother will obey his orders." β
The crown prince looked at the Nine Emperors with satisfaction and said with concern: "You have worked a lot for this case these days, and when this case is over, this palace will ask for credit for you in front of your father." β
The Nine Emperor Princes arched their hands, shook their heads again, and said: "The younger brother did all this to repay the crown prince and brother for taking care of him, but he never thought about the credit. With the crown prince and brother here, whether there is merit or not, it does not prevent the younger brother from being a rich and idle king. The younger brother will take his leave, and when the case is over, he will come to report the good news to the royal brother! β
The crown prince nodded again and again, personally sent the Nine Emperor Princes to the door, and watched the Nine Emperor Princes walk away before returning to the study.
The prince continued to bring up the tea. The prince drank tea and said to the prince: "Lao Jiu is really capable!" β
The prince nodded in agreement, "His Royal Highness the Ninth is not very old, but he has extraordinary ability, and he is a rare talent." It is rare to be so loyal to Your Highness. As he spoke, he handed over a plate of dim sum: "This is the chestnut cake made by Concubine Chen herself, can you try it?" β
The prince liked the sweet and glutinous feeling of chestnuts very much, pinched a piece and threw it into his mouth, chewed and swallowed it. Then he said: "It's a pity, the queen mother always doesn't like him, I really don't understand what her old man thinks, such a prince who doesn't have any power support, isn't it just right to pull over to do things for the palace, why always guard against him like a thief, is it possible that he can still steal my position like this?" β
The prince has been by the prince's side since he was a child, so he naturally knows what to say to please the prince, and replied with a smile: "Don't say that a prince like His Royal Highness the Ninth has no support from his mother's family, even if he is like His Royal Highness, he can't compare with Your Highness!" β
The prince listened comfortably, picked up another piece of pastry and still put it in his mouth, squinted and chewed for a while, and praised: "Well, it tastes good." After swallowing a mouthful, he asked again, "What has Concubine Chen been busy with lately?" β
Wang Gonggong hurriedly said: "Concubine Chen has recently researched a new bathing recipe, saying that bathing with her recipe can make people strengthen their bodies and make them several years younger!" β
"Oh? Really? The prince was obviously interested, and said to the prince: "Ready, this palace will go to Concubine Chen's place to have a look." β
The prince agreed to go out and prepare.
The prince has relieved himself of the burden of the case, and he is in the mood to patronize the back house again, and he now wants to experience a bathing method that can make a man several years younger.
In Concubine Chen's Yueyao Palace, a little eunuch sent by the prince had already sent a letter, and he got a big red envelope and left. Concubine Chen's eldest palace maid Le'er said: "Master, the slave maid is going to prepare the bath medicinal soup, His Royal Highness the Prince will come in a while, and the mother must be close to His Royal Highness to bathe, as long as you can conceive the dragon heir early, see what else there is to say in the east." β
Concubine Chen leaned up a little shyly and nodded, and when Na Le saw her like this, she hurriedly persuaded again: "Niang Niang can't always hold it, women can only be willing to lower their bodies, what kind of man can't take it?" Not to mention that His Royal Highness is very attentive to Niangniang, otherwise he would not have made such a big effort to marry you into the door, and as soon as he entered the door, he sealed the side concubine. β
When Concubine Chen heard this, she sighed softly.
Le'er looked at her with a sad expression, and persuaded again: "Niangniang doesn't have to think about it anymore, since Niangniang has entered the prince's mansion, this will be the prince's person from now on, and it's useless to think about anything else." The slave advises you to let go of your previous thoughts, serve His Royal Highness the Crown Prince well, give birth to a boy and a girl as soon as possible, and gain a firm foothold in this prince's mansion is the right way. β
Concubine Chen nodded, knowing that no matter how much she thought about that person, it would be impossible to go back to the past. She cheered up and said to Le'er: "You go and prepare, I know how to do it." β
Hearing this, Le'er went out happily. Only when the master is good, can these slaves and maids follow and have a good future in the future.
In a short time, His Royal Highness the Prince's sedan chair arrived. Concubine Chen hurriedly led people to greet her.
The prince walked in happily, and looked at the charming beauty in front of him, and his heart melted half. It took him a lot of effort to snatch it from the hands of the Hou Shizi of Shenwei.
In fact, he didn't want to offend Shenweihou, but since he saw Concubine Chen at the peony banquet that day, he thought about it day and night, and he couldn't let go of it anymore, so he took the risk of offending Shenweihou and got the beauty.
Concubine Chen welcomed people into the inner room and brought a bowl of ginseng tea.
The prince happily took the ginseng tea, and then pulled the beauty to his lap and sat down, stopped the weak waist and said: "I heard that Concubine Ai has prepared a special bath medicine soup for the palace, why don't you hurry up and accompany the palace to bathe?" β
Concubine Chen's face was flushed with shame, and she had to deal with him and said, "The concubine has already ordered someone to prepare, and when His Royal Highness finishes using the ginseng tea, she will be able to ...... Yes...... Bathing. β
Concubine Chen's voice was as thin as a mosquito, but the prince preferred her delicate appearance, pinched her smooth face, and said close to her soft ear: "This palace should enjoy your service today, don't let this palace down?" β
Le'er's voice came in from outside: "Your Highness, Niangniang, the bath bucket is ready, please take a bath." β
When the prince heard this, he didn't wait for Concubine Chen to stand up, and a princess picked her up and walked into the clean room.
Le'er and the others stayed outside, only to hear the sound of splashing inside, accompanied by the exclamation of Concubine Chen, and then the sound of splashing did not stop, until more than half an hour later, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wrapped a simple blanket around his waist, and returned to the bedroom with the equally simple wrapped Concubine Chen in his arms.
Several palace maids went to clean up the clean room with red faces, and the movement on the bed had already risen again. It wasn't until midnight that the palace maid who was keeping vigil outside breathed a sigh of relief for Concubine Chen.
