Chapter 124: Witch Gu Worries
The atmosphere in Kunning Palace changed suddenly, which made Zhu Youzhen and the second monk puzzled, and looked at the two beauties in front of him in a daze, not knowing what was wrong.
"Your Majesty, the mourning family once read the Han book, and the Han Dynasty Emperor Wu Gu has heard of it, and now His Majesty has given this thing and Princess Changle, and the mourning family dare not bear it."
Zhang Yan, as the queen of Zhu Youxiao, has the same status as the queen mother, so Zhu Youzhen has no scruples when he speaks.
When Zhu Youzhen heard this, he suddenly realized.
Although Zhu Youzhen is not a professional historian, he has not watched many film and television dramas about Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was old, the crown prince Liu Ju had been the prince for more than 30 years, and the prince had the support of the queen Wei Zifu and his uncle Wei Qing, and the princelings above the court had become a climate.
In his later years, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was sick and suspicious, and no one could say whether the crown prince Liu had the intention of rebelling.
At that time, many people believed in the magic of the fantasy Huang Lao, and there were often witches in the palace, and it was a common method to use puppets to drive away evil spirits and avoid disasters.
One day, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty rebelled against thousands of wooden soldiers in the Nightdream Palace, chased and killed him, and when he woke up, he felt unwell, so he ordered the minister Jiang Chong to investigate the case.
Jiang Chongsu had a gap with the crown prince Liu, and once he gained power, he climbed the prince.
So it was originally a dream of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, but it eventually evolved into a major case of rebellion by the prince who troubled the imperial court.
In the end, the crown prince and the queen committed suicide, and killed tens of thousands of people, and the power of the prince in the court was swept away.
The witchcraft of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty has also become a major case of royal ethics for 2,000 years, but anyone who reads a few books does not know this tragedy.
Therefore, when Zhang Yan and Zhou Wanyan saw this realistic rag doll, they were immediately frightened.
After Zhang Yan's reminder, Zhu Youzhen also remembered this.
However, in Zhu Youzhen's opinion, what kind of witch Gu is, it's not that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty thinks that the crown prince is powerful, and he is afraid that the evening festival will not be guaranteed, so he found a reason to start.
Just look at the people selected by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to investigate and handle this case, you can know that Jiang Chong and the crown prince are not in harmony, it is impossible for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty not to know, and the purpose of using Jiang Chong to investigate the case can be imagined.
There is no family affection in heaven, and neither can father and son.
Alas, I already knew how to make an animal puppet.
Thinking of this, Zhu Youzhen smiled awkwardly and quickly ordered Wang Chengen to put the doll away.
"Haha, I've been so busy these days that I've forgotten about it, but witches and ghosts are all lies, it's just an excuse made up by Emperor Wu of Han who wants to kill his son, I don't believe it."
Seeing that Zhu Youzhen was still talking nonsense, Zhou Wanyan snorted.
"Your Majesty..."
"Okay, okay, I won't get this doll in the future, catch up with Ming, I let them get an animal, a puppy, a kitten, a bear or something, it's cuter than a doll."
Seeing that Zhou Wanyan was about to be anxious, Zhu Youzhen hurriedly stopped and helped the queen up.
"What are you doing about the New Year's celebration in the palace?"
Seeing that Zhang Yan and Zhou Wanyan's faces were still a little nervous, Zhu Youzhen hurriedly changed the topic.
"Back to Your Majesty, eat the matter of keeping watch on Chinese New Year's Eve, the concubine has already arranged with her sister, but this matter of setting off fireworks, you may need to prepare for the previous dynasty, is it to invite the fireworks in Dongsi Hutong to enter the palace on Chinese New Year's Eve night, and listen to the palace people say that his family's fireworks are the best."
Speaking of the arrangements for the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, Zhou Wanyan immediately became excited.
"No, you just let Gao Qiqian buy them, and let them put it when the time comes, just in the open space in front of the Qianqing Palace, the fireworks Zhang family also have to celebrate the New Year, don't trouble others, let's put it ourselves, it's also lively."
Zhou Wanyan heard this, and she should be busy.
"I heard Gao Qiqian say that the temple fair is going on in the outer city, and I am going to go out to the palace to observe the people's feelings, do you want to go together?"
Seeing that it was still early and there was nothing important in the afternoon, Zhu Youzhen couldn't sit still in the palace, remembering that he used to spend the Spring Festival with his family to buy New Year's goods, although he didn't have to buy anything now, but he still missed the past.
"Your Majesty, can you do it?"
Zhou Wanyan had some expectations in her heart, and she felt a little inappropriate, so she turned her head to look at her sister-in-law Zhang Yan, but Zhang Yan pretended not to hear anything.
For Zhou Wanyan, Zhang Yan is envious, Zhu Youzhen is really good to her, not to mention the royal family, even ordinary rich families have no such thing.
has a little bit of family resources, which man is not three wives and four concubines, but since Zhou Wanyan entered the palace, the emperor has favored her.
I know about my own family, when Zhang Yan first entered the palace, Zhu Youxiao not only had the Hakka nurse, but also more than a dozen palace maids who came to the palace, and the Hakka family often offered all kinds of foxes to the emperor after entering the palace by himself, so that he could not be favored.
Like Zhu Youzhen, Zhang Yan has never even heard of it.
In fact, Zhang Yan also reminded Zhou Wanyan not to take the emperor too seriously, so as not to get a jealous name.
Zhou Wanyan also persuaded Zhu Youzhen for this, but I heard that he was reprimanded by the emperor, and the reasons given by Zhu Youzhen were irrefutable.
"The eldest son is not a sister-in-law, do you want my sons to turn against each other?"
After that, Zhou Wanyan didn't dare to persuade her, but she saw the imperial doctor more and more often.
A few days ago, an old imperial historian of the previous dynasty also wrote a letter to impeach the queen, saying that she was jealous, but Zhu Youzhen was directly sent to Lingnan on the charge of dividing the emperor and empress and confusing the dynasty.
And Zhu Youzhen's favor for Zhou Wanyan is not only this, the emperor often goes out of the palace in micro-clothes, and sometimes brings the queen.
Zhang Yan also advised Zhu Youzhen for this at the beginning, although the Son of Heaven promised it in his mouth, but he did not change it repeatedly.
also persuaded Zhang Yan to go out for a walk more, don't be bored in the palace, and go home more often to see her parents.
It's just that this year, Empress Yi'an has been married three times, more than the previous Apocalypse Dynasty combined.
In the end, it was too Kang Bo Zhang Guoji was flattered, and they all entered the palace to thank him.
Therefore, it was inconvenient for Zhang Yan to persuade the Son of Heaven anymore, just pray that nothing would happen.
At this time, seeing that Zhu Youzhen was going to take Zhou Wanyan out of the palace again, Zhang Yan didn't bother to persuade her.
"Take Changle with you, don't be stuffy in the palace all day long, it's not good for your health."
Zhang Yan was also helpless, so she had to dress up Princess Changle and tell Zhou Wanyan to be optimistic about the little princess.
Everyone disguised themselves, first went to Xiyuan from the Forbidden City, and then took a carriage out from the corner gate of Xiyuan.
Although Zhu Youzhen has gone out of the palace many times to experience the life in the capital of this era, it is the first time to come to the temple fair before the New Year.
There are too many people! Out of Zhengyang Gate, I looked around from the carriage, and everywhere I saw was people.
Zhu Youzhen looked at the crowded scene in front of him, and remembered the time when he traveled during the long vacation in his previous life, which was not to see the scenery at all, but to see people.
Zhou Wanyan also remembered the past, but it was the scene when she was a child, and she went out with her father and brother to catch the temple fair.
At that time, the family was very poor, and my father made a living by writing letters and telling fortunes, and the happiest time of the year was the Chinese New Year.
Wearing new clothes and eating some meat, this is what Zhou Wanyan looked forward to for the New Year when she was a child.
