Chapter 99

The Tenth Prince muttered in a low voice, "It's hard to be an emperor." The ministers still have a day off, and you are the emperor, but you can't rest for a day. "Of course, the emperor can also have extravagant pleasures, and he can ignore state affairs, but that is usually called a faint king.

"It's hard." The emperor smiled slightly, "This drudgery will be handed over to your eldest brother in the future." Xiao Shi, my father has picked a fertile and fertile land in Zhongzhou for you, you can be a rich vassal king there, and live a leisurely life. ”

The Ten Princes heard the emperor mention "your eldest brother", and asked casually: "Dad, have you eaten the elixir that your eldest brother offered some time ago?" The eldest brother said that the elixir contained ......" Before the tenth prince finished speaking, the emperor waved his hand in annoyance, "Don't mention the medicine to me." ”

He is not in good health, and he has been dealing with all kinds of decoctions and pills all these years, and he has long been annoyed. Although the elixir offered by the prince was praised as a flower, he didn't even want to look at it.

The Ten Princes stopped mentioning the elixir with interest, and muttered in a low voice, "Dad, I'm the prince, it's taboo to accompany you here to criticize or something." Otherwise, you should call the eldest brother back, these drudgers should be done by the eldest brother. ”

Although the emperor was tired and irritable, he was still in a happy mood when he looked at his handsome little ten. He smiled and patted the tenth prince on the shoulder, half joking, half scared, "It's only been a few days since you waited for your father, and you're tired and want to be lazy?" If you dare to be lazy, Dad will call Little Eleven and ask him to run errands for Daddy. ”

The Ten Princes were taken aback and hurriedly said: "Dad, Xiao Shi is not lazy, not lazy!" Whatever you command, please say, and I will do as I do. "Call Xiao Eleven, it's fatal, if my mother knows the way, it must be difficult to sleep.

In fact, the ten princes followed the emperor to contact political affairs, and Empress Zhang was already unhappy. She is a mother, her palms and backs are full of meat, and she feels distressed for her eldest son and younger son. The eldest son is far away in Nanjing, but the younger son reviews the recital on his behalf, can the eldest son not mind in his heart? If the two brothers are dirty about this, how can it be good.

The Ten Princes were not happy to do this either. He has known since he was born that he is the youngest son, the eldest brother is the prince, and he is the future emperor, he doesn't have to fight for anything, he doesn't have to care about anything, he is a rich and idle king. But his emperor's father is old and his energy is low, and he can't watch his father get tired and ignore himself. Besides, if he refused, the people around the emperor would be replaced by Xiao Eleven, which would be even more troublesome.

The emperor smiled, "Okay, don't be lazy." ”

The Ten Princes smiled lightly, "Well, I'm not lazy." As for you, don't ask Little Eleven to share favors with me. ”

The Emperor smiled and agreed.

Little Shi, how could my father let Xiao Shiyi and them do such a thing as approving and folding on their behalf? You and your eldest brother are half-brothers, and they have a deep relationship, and your eldest brother will treat you well no matter what, but they are not necessarily the same. If Daddy lets them get involved in political affairs, won't he harm them?

The chamberlain took the reply of the cabinet ministers and presented it, and the ten princes read it out word by word, and the emperor thought for a long time, "This ticket is not going to be handled properly, let them redraft." The Ten Princes agreed, marked it, and sent it back to the cabinet for further discussion.

It was late at night, and the palace maid served the emperor to wash up and go to bed to rest. The tenth prince saw that the emperor had stopped and wanted to leave, but the emperor asked him to stay, "When you were a child, you stayed here with your father and didn't leave, how can you run away when you grow up?" The Ten Princes were surprised, "Let me sleep with you?" I'm not a beauty. The emperor was amused by him, and then An Ansheng fell asleep.

The ten princes left the Qianqing Palace, sat in a sedan chair, and went back to the East Third Institute where he lived.

The night was as cold as water, and the ten princes sat in a sedan chair, their hearts flying. For the Ten Princes, the ideal situation is for the Emperor to summon his eldest brother back to assist in government affairs. As for him, he is a prince at ease, he doesn't care about anything, and he is the most idle. However, the Ten Princes vaguely mentioned it a few times, but the emperor didn't take it to heart.

"I don't want to get involved in government affairs." The tenth prince frowned slightly, "I want to ......" A cardamom girl's graceful figure appeared in front of him, and his eyes were gentle.

When the sedan chair of the Ten Princes arrived at the East Third Institute, the vermilion lacquer gate opened. There was a long row of red lanterns hanging on both sides of the road, shining as bright as day, and two rows of palace maids knelt down beside the road to greet them, and the ten princes didn't look at these people, and walked straight in. A middle-aged lady with a white face greeted her, bent her knees and called "Ten Highnesses", and the Ten Princes smiled, "You haven't rested yet?" Didn't you say it, I'll be late these days, don't wait for me. ”

This middle-aged grandmother surnamed Qin, is the nurse of the Ten Princes, and is also the person brought into the palace by Empress Zhang from the Jinxiang Marquis Mansion, and the Ten Princes are of course polite to her. Mama Qin smiled lovingly, "Your Highness, just because you came back late, I have to wait." I must be tired when I come back so late, and if there is no one who can serve, I will have to do it? The Ten Princes shook their heads with a smile, "Are you still a milk doll when I am still a milk doll?" While talking, the palace maid had already prepared the soup, and the ten princes went in to wash.

When the tenth prince came out of the clean room, he saw that Mama Qin was still there, so he smiled and said, "You must have something to tell me." Come on, hello and go back to rest, I'm also very sleepy, and I'm going to sleep. Mama Qin hesitated, and the Ten Princes smiled slightly, and waved away the palace maid, "You all go down." Seeing that there was no one in the house, Mama Qin opened her mouth in a hurry, and her tone was full of begging, "Your Highness, no matter how late it is, you don't want to rest in the Qianqing Palace, okay?" ”

The Ten Princes were silent for a moment, and said gently: "Don't worry, I have measure." "A prince is a prince, and a prince is not a prince, don't I know.

The Ten Princes thought that this was the end of it, but who knew that Mama Qin still didn't leave, and what she wanted to say, she couldn't say it. The Ten Princes sighed softly, "I know everything." Don't worry, I have a sense of proportion, and my eldest brother knows it. Mama Qin nodded tearfully, "Your Highness, among brothers, don't be careless." Seeing that the Ten Princes had no objections, she was a little relieved, and finally left, "Your Highness is tired, let's rest quickly." ”

After Mama Qin left, the tenth prince was about to go to bed, when the door opened, and a palace maid who was fifteen or sixteen years old walked in. She has a melon seed face and big eyes, she is charming and charming, and her figure is good, and her small waist sways gently like a willow, which is very moving. It was spring, and it was still very cold at night, but she was only wearing a thin water-red gauze dress, faintly revealing snow flesh.

The Ten Princes had never seen this battle, and they couldn't help but be stunned. When did the East Sansho have such a palace maid? What kind of dress is this? Dare to enter the prince's bedroom without being summoned, do you want to be beaten to death by a cane?

Seeing the ten princes staring at herself, the palace maid's face flew red. She took two steps forward, knelt down and kowtowed, and said shyly and timidly: "The concubine's name is Chengzhu, and she has been ordered by the queen to serve the Ten Highnesses. When it came to the words "serving the Ten Highnesses", she became even more shy, and her voice gradually became inaudible, and that kind of shyness was very endearing.

The Ten Princes looked at her patiently, and their anger rose. If a person is tired and sleepy, but he is disturbed by others, and he can't go to bed immediately, is there anything more annoying in the world?

He didn't speak, the palace maid didn't know the bottom of her heart, and timidly knelt forward and climbed two steps, "I beg Your Highness to have mercy." The Ten Princes took two steps back and clapped their hands vigorously, "Someone!" "Call the chamberlain, and tell them to take the palace maid out of the palace, and besides, no one is allowed to come in. The chamberlain agreed, and took the palace maid named Chengzhu out of the city. Chengzhu looked back with tears in his eyes when he went out, and the ten princes who provoked him were even more disgusted.

After the room was quiet, the Ten Princes lifted the quilt, lay down in the warm and comfortable quilt, and let out a long sigh. Little junior sister, it's so difficult for the tenth brother to even sleep peacefully, have you ever seen a prince as bitter as me?

The next day, when the Tenth Prince saw Empress Zhang, he said coquettishly: "You gave me a palace maid? Mother, the girls in that palace are not beautiful, I don't like it. If you really want to give, look for another stunning color. Empress Zhang was disgusted, "That's not beautiful, do you want a fairy in the sky?" The Ten Princes were careless, "The fairies in the sky don't need it, but they can't be like last night's one, which makes people lose their appetite at the first sight." ”——

That still makes you unappetizing, what is stunning? Empress Zhang can't do anything about him.

"Little Ten, you're old too, let's give you a draft." Empress Zhang said helplessly.

"No." The tenth prince's voice was calm, "Even if a civilian woman is beautiful, her bearing is not good, I don't want it." ”

Queen Zhang raised her forehead, "You want to be stunning again, and you have to be magnanimous, Xiao Shi, this can make my mother embarrassed." The Ten Princes smiled lightly, "What's so difficult about this?" "Stunning beauties have a good bearing, and there is nothing in the world.

Empress Zhang's face sank, and she said lightly: "Xiao Jiu's body is gradually getting better, and Huiyin is about to be married, it's time to handle their marriage." "Originally, I was going to arrange the marriage for the Nine Emperor Princes and Cao Huiyin two years ago, but the Nine Emperor Princes happened to be sick and bedridden, so the marriage was delayed.

This marriage, except for the emperor, no one is willing. Of course, the Cao family is not happy, how can Jinghai Hou and his wife want to marry their only daughter to the prince of the Nine Emperors, who is not from a good background, has poor health, and is not favored. Empress Zhang, not to mention it, her daughter-in-law, who was optimistic about Lu, was forced by the emperor to marry someone else, and she was extremely annoyed. As for the Nine Emperors, he didn't want to offend Queen Zhang by marrying the princess, and he couldn't wait to be sick for three or two years again, and when the Ten Princes became relatives, he would get out of bed again. However, the emperor sent him a physician to carefully diagnose and treat him, and he did not dare to pretend to be sick, and he did not dare to get out of bed, but he still couldn't get up.

The tenth prince said freely: "When the cousin of the Cao family and the ninth brother get married, I will give a big gift!" "Finally got rid of this big trouble, and the whole world celebrates. A big gift, worth it, it's worth it.

Empress Zhang was angry in her heart. Little Ten, did you do it on purpose? Mother isn't it for your good, but you don't appreciate it, and you have no conscience.

The Tenth Prince stood up, "I am pulled by my father to do hard labor every day, and I am almost tired and sick." Mother, I'm going to practice riding and archery, and move my body. Queen Zhang hurriedly said: "Go, go, Xiao Shi, this is a serious matter." "This is your serious business, criticizing for your father, that's purely a substitute for you.

The tenth prince Shi Shiran went.

On the second day after returning to Beijing, he began to get busy, and instructed the maid to open the cabinet and distribute the gifts in the same way," ...... This Su embroidery is very beautiful, and it is kept for the second lady of the Wen family, who has also been in love with stinky beauty recently...... The three pen holders are exactly the same, wrapped up, and given to the cousins of the Lin family...... "Chuhe Zaihe and others are very obedient, one by one, they are divided, wrapped, and according to the assignment, some are sent directly, some are kept, and they will be sent when they visit in person."

As before, he lived in a wing room in the main courtyard. Mrs. Fang hadn't seen her for a long time, so why was she willing to let her live elsewhere? She was busy here, so Mrs. Fang came over to see the excitement, "Nan Nan is doing things in an orderly manner." "It's not in vain to see the excitement, I can't forget to praise a few words, and when I listened, my eyebrows curled.

was lively, Mrs. Lin sent her mother-in-law over and brought a lot of Lin Youhui's favorite food. Mrs. Fang was happy, "Mrs. In-laws, this is thinking about the child." Call Second Master Pei and Lin Youhui and instruct, "Don't delay, let's go to the Silver Ingot Bridge today." Pei Erye and his wife agreed, "Yes, let's go." Ordered someone to send a message to Pei Qi and Pei Jin, asking them to pack up and go back to their grandfather's house with their parents, "You too, hurry up and pack up, let's leave early." ”

Busy packing up things, "Dad, mother, where is my gift to my grandfather and grandmother?" Why is it that the more anxious you are, the more you can't find it? Lin Youhui smiled, "Didn't you buy a few pieces of jade from the Zhou Dynasty and the Han Dynasty from the antique dealer to give to your grandfather and grandmother?" I remember you solemnly and personally placed it in a pineapple cabinet. After thinking about it, "yes, it's put together." "Ordered Chu He Zai He to find the pineapple wood cabinet.

She was busy tossing here, Pei Erye and Lin Youhui couldn't help but smile and watch, not to poke her. Small, the Ding of the Zhou Dynasty and the jade of the Han Dynasty, can it be so easy for you to be scooped up? Come to think of it, the antique dealer must be able to speak well, and his tongue is bright.

Chu He has always been clever and capable, and this time he lived up to expectations, and it didn't take long to find the pineapple cabinet, "Miss Jiu, it's still locked." Lin Youhui couldn't help but smile, "Daughter, you kept the key personally." Giggling, "I finally got it, of course I have to cherish it." "Take out the key and order Hatsuha to open the cabinet.

Pulled Mrs. Fang over to see, "I carefully selected, my grandfather and maternal grandfather are the tripods of the Zhou Dynasty, and you and your maternal grandmother are the jade of the Han Dynasty." Mrs. Fang couldn't close her mouth happily, "Look at my family, how sensible and filial I are!" ”

The cabinet opened, and Chu He carefully took out a huge box, and when the box opened, there was a bronze tripod mottled with ancient monuments. Zai He also struggled to take out a box, and the box was also a bronze tripod, which was more ancient than the previous one.

"Eat from Ding, Ding is a good thing, one of our family, one of my grandfather's family!" Cheerfully.

Wind Lotus and Rain Lotus respectively took out a mahogany box carved with rich flowers from the cabinet and opened it, and it was covered with vermilion velvet, on which lay a white jade pendant. This white jade pendant looks to be old, and the carving is very simple.

"One is a fawn and the other is a lamb, I think they are both beautiful. Grandmother, which do you prefer? He asked Mrs. Fang diligently.

Mrs. Fang said with a smile: "As long as it is given by my family, it doesn't matter what it is, my grandmother likes it." Mrs. Fang seemed to hear Mrs. Lin mention that she had raised deer at home when she was a child, and she had fed it herself, which was very interesting, guessing that Mrs. Lin should like the fawn, so she pointed to the lamb and said, "This little sheep is good and well-behaved." Then he smiled and held the lamb and stuffed it into Mrs. Fang's hand, "Grandmother, give it to you." ”

Mrs. Fang was so happy that she didn't know what to say, and Second Master Pei coughed, "Mother, it seems that my mother and I have also honored you with many good things, but I haven't seen you like this." Mrs. Fang glanced at him, "Have you two given me the ancient jade of the Han Dynasty?" What about the Han Dynasty! Second Master Pei opened his mouth and was speechless.

It was deceived by an antique dealer, and if it is true, it will come to you to offer treasures. Do you really think this is an antiquity of the Han Dynasty? But after going out to play for a long time, I brought back these two tripods and two jade pendants from an antique shop.
