CHAPTER XX
readx; Fu Kang was also surprised when he saw Yang Zhirou, but because of the time relationship, he didn't have time to explore this, so he took Yang Zhirou and Fu Yan and went straight to the palace. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Fu Kang took Yang Zhirou and Fu Yan to sit in the carriage, and Yang Zhirou asked, "What is the situation of the royal family of Dongwu?" Tell me about it, I have a good bottom in my heart. ”
Fu Kang glanced at Fu Yan, Fu Yan nodded and said, "Grandpa hasn't been in Beijing much in recent years, and some things are not particularly clear, so let me tell you." ”
Yang Zhirou nodded.
"The Emperor of Eastern Wu has a total of one queen, four concubines, twelve concubines, and countless concubines, not two hundred but more than one hundred, but the emperor is not greedy for beauty, only pampered the queen and the four concubines, the twelve concubines have never been to the palace, let alone those concubines, those concubines because they are sent into the palace by many officials, so they can't be released out of the palace at will, but it looks a little like palace maids, in fact, there are already many concubines who have been incorporated into the palace maids, although they can't be shared by rain and dew, but they also have a good home."
Yang Zhirou rolled her eyes, it's really good to be an emperor, it's just that there are so many wives, this pampered is called rain and dew are all occupied, and the less favored is called clean and self-preservation, not greedy for beauty.
"Who's the most favored?"
"The most favored is the queen and Liang Guifei, the queen Shang Rong is the eldest lady of the Yizhou giant merchants, the emperor does not know whether it is for military expenses or really likes this Shang Rong, she is very pampered, the queen has two sons, the third prince Yun Zhao and the fifth prince Yun Yi, among which the three princes Yun Zhao is both civil and military, a talent, when he was fifteen years old he walked on the bank of the Qing River, the girl in the capital was attracted by his outstanding appearance and temperament, at first someone boldly showed love, and then evolved into a siege to chase and intercept, It was Yin of Jingzhao Mansion at that time who personally sent someone to answer the siege and relieve the siege, and these three princes were named the sons of Qinghe after they fought there. ”
Yang Zhirou is very embarrassed, who said that this ancient woman was reserved, and sure enough, the power of should not be underestimated.
Fu Yan continued: "This Liang Guifei was originally a woman from an ordinary family in Eastern Wu, once the emperor met her when he went out on patrol, he was shocked, and he immediately took her back, quite pampered, this Liang Guifei was pregnant with the prince a month earlier than the queen, and was named a concubine, second only to the queen, Liang Guifei gave birth to a son, that is, the second prince Yun Xian, this Yun Xian is notoriously arrogant, because of the emperor's favor, almost no one dares to mess with him. ”
Yang Zhirou snorted coldly in his heart, Fu Kang said that Yun Zongwan was most concerned about Lu Guifei of Southern Qi, and this favored Liang Guifei didn't know if it was to suppress the queen's faction or really like it, which was intriguing.
"What about the other concubines?"
"The other concubines are Concubine Xian, Concubine Hua, Concubine Jing, Concubine Xian has been with the emperor for the longest time, when the emperor was still one of the six masters, she followed the emperor to be a maid, once the emperor was assassinated when he blocked an arrow for the emperor, and now the health is not very good, the emperor is grateful to her, and married her as a wife, although the harem is controlled by the queen and Liang Guifei, but no one dares to snub her, because the emperor respects her a lot, she gave birth to a son after marrying the emperor who had not ascended the throne at that time, that is, the emperor's eldest son Yuntian, The emperor wanted to let him enter the Hanlin Academy, but he refused, and finally went to Qishan Academy to be a gentleman. I often go to the palace to diagnose the concubine, so I have some friendship with this great prince, he is indeed as rumored by the outside world, he only loves books, and does not care too much about others. ”
"As for Concubine Hua and Concubine Jing, one is the daughter of the Household Department Shangshu, and the other is the daughter of the Military Department. Concubine Hua has a son, that is, the fourth prince Yun Zhan, these four princes and the second prince are the same raccoon dog, greedy for money and lustful, and do not learn and have no skills. As for Concubine Jing, the daughter of the military department's Shangshu, she only has one daughter, the only daughter of the emperor, the princess Yunduo of Allure who is loved by thousands of people. Although this concubine Jing is mediocre, she has been valued by the emperor because of this precious daughter, and she has a place in this harem. ”
Yang Zhirou nodded, indicating that he knew.
At this time, the carriage also approached the palace, and seeing the black city wall from a distance, Yang Zhirou let out a breath of turbidity, he didn't expect that he would be nervous, he had never been nervous when he was on a mission before.
When they arrived at the gate of the palace, there were already many official carriages lining up to enter the city gate, and the soldiers guarding were counting the number of people in front of the invitation posts one by one, and then letting people into the city.
Yang Zhirou turned his head and asked Fu Kang: "Does each family still restrict people?" ”
"Restricted, in the past, those adults could only bring their wives to participate in the palace banquet, and today each family is authorized to bring a woman of appropriate age, it seems that they are going to choose concubines for the princes."
"Oh? Didn't several princes choose concubines? ”
"Except for the second prince and the fourth prince who have side concubines, the other princes do not have concubines in the palace, but I heard that the three princes are going to marry Nanqi, but this bride is blessed and killed."
Yang Zhirou thought this was strange, these five princes were just that, I heard that the eldest prince was twenty-six, and the three princes were twenty-four, it couldn't be that there was no woman, I thought that the three princes already had a concubine, but I didn't expect it to be single, there must be a story in this, it's not as modern as it is, what if true love doesn't appear, you won't get married, and the succession is always the first, even if it's to win the heir, you have to spread out as soon as possible, or marry with others. That's right! Yang Zhirou suddenly had an idea, perhaps because of this, he didn't want to marry someone and was afraid of the emperor's suspicion.
"Yo, it's Doctor Fu, it's been a long time." A man standing behind the guard soldier said in a sharp voice.
Fu Kang snorted and lowered the curtain that had been raised.
Yang Zhirou raised his eyebrows to look at him, Fu Yan on the side shook his head with a smile, and then raised the curtain again, and said to the man, "Gonggong Li, why are you here." ”
"The little divine doctor is also here, didn't I follow the emperor's order to welcome the envoys who set off from the post house, if it weren't for this cold day, I wouldn't want to come out. By the way, I just saw that Master Fu had already entered, maybe the horse would be able to catch up if he ran faster. ”
"Thank you Gonggong Li for reminding me that Fu Yan is one step ahead." Fu Yan hugged his fists and thanked him, and when those soldiers saw that Gonggong Li knew the people in the car, they didn't check again, and directly let them pass.
Yang Zhirou, who was in the car, asked Fu Yan: "Why is your grandfather not polite to that father-in-law Li?" ”
"Hmph, that inflamed dog minion!" Before Fu Yan could answer, Fu Kang said angrily.
"This Gonggong Li and the second prince are very close." Fu Yan explained.
Yang Zhirou said that these two princes are not good at stubble, and it is estimated that they are not much better off if they are good friends with him.
The carriage was walking, and heard screams outside, Yang Zhirou opened the curtain and saw the carriage moving forward on the road outside the car, and automatically gave way to a lane, of course, because of the hurried wayway, it seemed a little messy, some horses were frightened and still neighing, all because a black carriage rushed in from the palace gate, and the horse pulling the carriage rushed forward like crazy, at first crashed into a guard, and then rushed forward without any obstruction, and the vehicles that heard the movement hurriedly tried to avoid it, Yang Zhirou looked at the coachman who was still in a daze, snatched the whip, and jerked at the horse's buttocks, the horse was in pain, and ran hard, but the horses of this carriage were far from being stronger than the horses of the black carriage, and they were caught up by the carriage after a while, and the people who lined up in front of the palace hurriedly avoided the two carriages, Yang Zhirou lifted the curtain and looked at the black carriage, and the owner in the black carriage opposite seemed to feel a different gaze and raised the curtain.
"It's him!" Yang Zhirou thought silently in her heart.
