Chapter 43: The Queen's Calculations
Jiang Ao said angrily: "These three princes dare to look down on my Jiang Ao's daughter!"
Jiang Lige fanned the flames and said: "It's not, people say that your daughter likes his face." ”
Jiang Ao nodded and said, "Daddy also thinks you like his face." ”
Jiang Lige: ...... Daddy, are you sure your daughter didn't pick it up?
Jiang Ao suddenly reacted that he was led astray by Jiang Lige, and said bitterly: "Lige, you can like any man in this world, but the third prince can't." ”
Jiang Lige was puzzled: "Daddy, why is this? ”
Jiang Ao saw that she was obsessed, sighed and said: "You are young, naturally you can't see it, but Daddy is a person from the past, Daddy can see the resentment in the eyes of the third prince, if you are with him, I am afraid that you will be tired of him." ”
Jiang Lige was puzzled: "Resentment?" After thinking about it, he said: "If Lige is treated like this, Lige will also be resentful, but the third prince has no power and power, so what can he do if he is resentful?" ”
Jiang Ao asked rhetorically, "What if you are added?" What if you add the Jiang family? Leaving the song, Daddy is only afraid that the third prince is not pleasing to you, but pleasing to the benefits you can bring him, Daddy is all about this, how to choose, it depends on you. ”
Jiang Lige promised: "Daddy, Lige will never let the third prince take advantage of the Jiang family!"
Jiang Ao said bitterly: "So you want him to use you?" ”
Jiang Lige said seriously: "If it's just to let out a bad breath, Lige doesn't mind, as long as it doesn't harm the rivers and mountains of Daonan Chu and the people." "The queen and the eldest princess of Shaohua treated him like this, how could they let it go!
Jiang Ao saw that she was unrepentant, and sighed and said, "Daddy punished you with twenty military sticks today, can you admit it?"
Jiang Lige fell to the ground and said respectfully: "My daughter is reckless, and these twenty military stick daughters deserve it." ”
Jiang Ao lamented: "These twenty military sticks are not to punish you for your reckless behavior, but to punish you for being willing to be played by a man in applause." ”
Jiang Lige's nose was sour. It wasn't until many years later that Jiang Lige had nothing and was bruised all over his body that he understood his father's good intentions, but it was too late.
Jiang Ao waved his hand and said, "Go ahead, Daddy will tell you that Uncle Chang doesn't have to show mercy." ”
Jiang Lige said respectfully: "Yes." So he went and took it upon himself to receive the punishment.
That night, Jiang's mother cried while smearing Jiang Lige's back with medicine: "Your father is really, isn't it just a little rumor?" As for beating my mother's baby daughter like this? It's too ruthless......"
Jiang Lige couldn't help but said in pain: "Auntie, there's nothing wrong with Lige, this time Lige did something wrong." "These twenty sticks are just a few days of pain for her, and they are not too serious.
Mother Jiang was still very sad and said, "What do you mean it's nothing?" With your scars, how will you marry in the future?"
The corners of Jiang Lige's mouth twitched, why did he get married again? comforted: "Auntie, it's really okay, don't you think I can still talk now?" With such a strong body as her daughter, she can withstand a hundred military sticks. ”
Jiang Mu stopped thinking about it at this time, and Jiang Lige was a lot more relieved.
After Jiang's mother smeared the medicine for Jiang Lige, she said directly: "A-Niang sleeps with you tonight, and there is a care for you at night." ”
Jiang Lige had a headache, if she dared to agree, her father would never let her go. deliberately said: "A-Niang, it's enough to have green apricots, you can rest assured." ”
Jiang's mother hesitated: "Where does Qingxing have A-Niang's intentions?"
Jiang Lige said with a smile: "Don't worry, Qingxing takes good care of her daughter, A-Niang, you can go back." ”
Only then did Jiang's mother stop insisting, and then instructed Jiang Lige and Qingxing to leave. Jiang Lige secretly breathed a sigh of relief, she was really afraid that her aunt would stay here, and her backyard was about to catch fire. Told Qingxing to go down and rest, Jiang Lige lay on the bed and squinted her eyes, she didn't know if the cold night would come tonight, maybe it was the cause of the injury, Jiang Lige quickly fell asleep.
In the Imperial Study.
Emperor Jianwen said lightly: "Shuo'er, what do you think of Lige and your third brother?"
A trace of imperceptible jealousy flashed in Chu Tianyi's gentle eyes, and he said respectfully: "Since the third brother dares to say this, it is naturally related to Lige, but to what extent, it can't be relied on by the third brother alone. "Everyone in the world says that the emperor dislikes the three princes Chu Tianyi very much, but since he was a child, his father and the emperor talked about the three princes in front of him, saying that you are the third brother, and letting a prince call him a younger brother can only show that the emperor is not so ruthless on the surface, but what is the reason why the emperor is so jealous?
Emperor Jianwen was happy when he saw that Chu Tianshuo's evaluation was pertinent, and his face was more kind: "Then do you think Lige is interested in your third brother?" ”
Chu Tianshuo said respectfully: "Erchen doesn't know, according to the song, he is outside the palace, and the third brother is almost at home in the house, and the two can't get to know each other." ”
Emperor Jianwen smiled: "I don't think it's unintentional to leave the song. The emperor's sharp eyes stared at every expression of the crown prince, only to see Chu Tianshuo's face flat, as if he didn't care.
Seeing that Chu Tianshuo didn't answer, Emperor Jianwen continued to ask, "How do you think this situation is the best?" ”
Chu Tianyi said respectfully: "Erchen doesn't dare to say anything. ”
Emperor Jianwen smiled: "It's okay, just you and me, father and son, just take it as nagging." "In fact, who can talk to the emperor.
Chu Tianshuo said respectfully: "Erchen thinks that national affairs are important, and the eldest princess of Chaoyang is also a rare strange woman, and the third brother will figure it out." ”
Emperor Jianwen muttered: "But what if it chills the hearts of loyal ministers? ”
Chu Tianshuo said: "Since Lige said that everything is up to his father, it means that Lige will not have any ideas." ”
Emperor Jianwen said with a smile: "You, you have to remember that for the monarch, you must take care of the true thoughts of the courtiers, you see that although Lige says that everything depends on me, how do I make the decision so that both parties are not ignored, this is a university question." ”
Chu Tianshuo said respectfully: "Then such a predicament, how will my father break the situation?" ”
Emperor Jianwen said inscrutablely: "Wait." ”
Chu Tianshuo reacted immediately and exclaimed: "It's still the father who is wise, but the son is ignorant." ”
Emperor Jianwen didn't care either, and said with a smile: "Take your time, one day you will understand." ”
Chu Tianshuo said respectfully: "Yes, the son is taught." ”
Emperor Jianwen said again: "Although the concubine selection banquet has been postponed, do you have a suitable candidate?"
Chu Tianshuo said respectfully: "No, everything is up to my father." "Even if there is, it can only be said that there is no, this is the way of getting along with father and son, monarch and minister.
Emperor Jianwen said: "You are the crown prince, how can you not be concerned about the affairs of the crown princess?"
Chu Tianshuo looked like he knew his mistake and said: "Erchen knows his mistake, but Erchen thinks that his father's vision is the best, and he will definitely know who is the best princess." ”
Emperor Jianwen was very useful in his heart, and said majestically: "I originally wanted to ask Lige to be the crown princess for you, but after this incident, I can't be the crown princess after leaving the song, I will definitely find a suitable princess for my son." ”
Chu Tianshuo was extremely happy when he heard Jiang Lige's name, but when he heard his father's next words, he dimmed again, so he had to respectfully say, "Thank you, Father." ”
After returning to the East Palace, the prince locked himself in the study, sat on the main seat, stared at the door of the study in a daze, and left the song, the palace likes you, but why do you like the third brother? If you don't have a third brother, you won't be burdened by fame, and your father will agree to let you be the crown princess......
At this time, the door of the study was pushed open, and the prince came back to his senses and said angrily to the next person: "What are you doing here, didn't you hear the palace say that you are not allowed to come in and disturb?" ”
Zhang Qianqian took the soup, walked to the prince's table, slowly put it down, as if she was not afraid of the angry prince at all, and said with a smile: "The prince is angry, the guards outside the door and the concubine have spoken, but the concubine feels that His Royal Highness is not stuffy herself, but it is better to send the fire to the concubine and send it out." ”
The prince hooked his lips and smiled, and said, "You are a smart woman. He said sharply: "Don't you know that this palace is the most disgusting person who pretends to be smart?" The dignified prince of Nanchu in this palace, is it still possible to anger a little woman? ”
Zhang Qianqian still smiled and said: "But the concubine is the prince's woman, and it is natural for the prince to be angry with his own woman." ”
Chu Tianshuo said calmly: "Zhang, is this palace usually too fond of you?" You've made such a big inch!" Yes, although Zhang Qianqian is a common house, she is extremely infatuated with the prince, and she can be regarded as the most favored in the past few months.
Zhang Qianqian was actually very scared in her heart, but she also knew the prince, although the prince was very strict with the people in the house, but he rarely really punished. Said respectfully: "Your Highness usually treats the concubine very well, and the concubine is grateful, how can she get an inch?" Your Highness, the concubine just wants you to be happy every day. ”
The prince didn't feel so angry, pulled the woman into his arms, sat on his lap, and then said: "Since you want to make Bengong happy, then Bengong will give you a chance." ”
Zhang Qianqian said with a smile: "Although Your Highness said that the concubine must know everything and say everything, just treat the concubine body as a tree hole." ”
The prince said lightly: "How to make a woman like this palace?"
Zhang Qianqian's heart was full of alarm bells, but thinking that this was also something she couldn't control, she thought about it: "With the power and appearance of His Royal Highness, the woman is unmoved, which shows that this woman does not value power, and the prince can only take the initiative." ”
The prince suddenly felt that this woman still had some ability, and said, "What if that woman already has someone she likes?" ”
Zhang Qianqian muttered: "This is troublesome, Your Highness can only accompany her, let her get used to it, and then she can't leave you, or expose the ugly face of her beloved, and besides, Your Highness should show that woman in some aspects to let her know that the person she loves is not as good as you." ”
The prince smiled: "In this way, the mood of this palace is much better, help this palace refer to how to get a woman's heart, aren't you uncomfortable?" ”
Zhang Qianqian said with a smile: "Naturally, it is very uncomfortable, but seeing His Highness happy and feeling that this is not a little uncomfortable." ”
The prince's heart softened, and he felt more distressed about the woman, seeing the woman's fair cheeks moving slightly, leaning over and kissing, Zhang Qianqian hugged the prince's neck and responded emotionally.
