Chapter 18: The concubines are going to be jealous

"Back to my father's words, my son has been reading recently."

"Oh? I wonder what Mingdai is reading? Hearing Ming Dai reading, the emperor and the queen looked at each other, and the two of them smiled at the corners of their eyes.

"Erchen is reading the Analects."

"Confucianism, the words of the Confucian sage, is very good. What's in store for Mindai? ”

"The Analects of Confucius is a book with profound words and far-reaching implications, and the sons did not see much, except that there was a dialogue between Confucius and his students: or said: 'How can you repay grievances with virtue?' Zi said: 'How can you repay virtue? Repay grievances with straightforwardness, repay virtue with virtue'. After reading it, he deeply felt the generosity of Sage Confucius, and admired Sage Confucius. ”

"How can you repay virtue with virtue? Repay grievances with straightforwardness and repay virtue with virtue. Well, the words of Sage Kong are indeed like a night light, always guiding the way for the lost, so the sage students will be like a sky full of stars. ”

As he spoke, the emperor looked at the queen beside him with frowns.

"Well, your Majesty, you see, Ming Dai has been much more well-behaved recently, and she also knows how to read and improve."

"Father, mother, bully."

Ming Dai, who finally had a stiff face, was knocked out this time, and went directly to the emperor with a bitter face.

"Hahaha..."

With his daughter by his side, the emperor was full of joy, "Queen, how dare you bully Ming Dai in front of me?" ”

"How dare a concubine?"

"Father, you see, the queen mother bullied her sons and didn't admit it."

"Haha..., well, Mingdai rest assured, my father will administer justice for you."

After a burst of laughter, Ming Dai returned to the legend of the incident, "Father, my son heard that you sent Jinke Tanhualang to prison, I don't know why?" ”

"Oh, could it be that my emperor is distressed."

Listening to the emperor's yin and yang strange voice, Ming Daiqiao's face turned red with shame.

"Father"

patted Ming Dai's hand, and the old emperor comforted him softly, "Okay, my own daughter, don't I know yet?" Although my father has agreed to your marriage, I also have to consider this colt, and if he is not in line with my wishes, I will refuse this family business. ”

Ming Dai was so moved when she heard this, she couldn't help but redden, and called softly, "Father"

The father-daughter relationship is deep, and at a moment, even the queen on the side is a little surprised.

"Your Majesty, the concubines are going to be jealous."

"Haha, okay, okay, you see your queen mother is going to eat it. Shi Zhongtai's affairs, Ming Dai, you don't have to worry about anything else, after a while, my father will send someone to release him. ”

"Well, my son thanked my father."

"Then the ministers will no longer disturb the father and the queen mother, and the sons will retire first."

"Well, stand down."

After Princess Mingdai left, the old emperor, who was still smiling, suddenly changed his majestic expression.

"Your Majesty, but are you still worried about the princess?"

"I hate it!"

The old emperor looked angry, "I know what that person did, but I can only marry the princess to him, I am unwilling!" ”

The concubines knew the resentment in the emperor's heart, and the concubines were as sad as the emperor. However, since the concubine knows the cause and effect of the matter, she can't hate the master, and the concubine can't hate it, so she can only say, she can only say..., hey"

As she spoke, the queen didn't know how to judge, but just sighed to show the helplessness in her heart.

"I understand, that's why I didn't kill him! As for the flower thief, even if he dies a thousand and eight hundred times, he can't solve the hatred in my heart! ”

"The emperor wants to calm his anger, and focus on the dragon body."

"Smack!"

The queen's persuasion didn't seem to have any effect, but only aroused the anger in the emperor's heart, "Speaking of which, I still have to investigate the crime of Li Mingqing's negligence, flower thieves are rampant in Beijing, and as a parent official in Kyoto, what does he eat!" If he hadn't neglected his duties, how would my emperor..."

"Your Majesty, you have to take care of your dragon body!"

Prison.

"Stop! This is a prison, you leave quickly. ”

"Brother Cha, in Kangren next week, I want to come and visit the master who went in the day before yesterday, I wonder if Brother Cha can do it?" Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling person, let alone a silver ticket that Zhou Kangren quietly handed over.

The officer stole a glance, and the anger on his face disappeared.

"Oh, it turned out to be Zhou Gongzi. However, Zhou Gongzi is afraid that he will be disappointed and return, that master is the person who the emperor arranged for the imperial guards to personally escort him, without the emperor's edict, those of us who are slaves dare not let people visit in private. Therefore, please ask Zhou Gongzi to take back this silver. ”

He said so, but the officer's hand clenched the silver ticket tightly, and he had no intention of returning it. Zhou Kangren naturally won't be so unreasonable, "Whatever the big brother said, even if you can't go in, this silver should be used to invite the big brother to drink tea and eat snacks." ”

Zhou Kangren was also generous, and a silver ticket was stuffed into the middle of his words, "Even if the big brother is embarrassed, then he won't go in, but I don't know if the big brother can tell the master why he is in prison?" ”

The officer's mouth was about to smile crookedly, and he explained happily, "I heard the eldest brother of the guard who came that day say that the master didn't know what to quarrel with the emperor in the palace, and the emperor locked him up when he was angry. However, Zhou Gongzi, you don't have to worry, it's been a few days, and no orders from above have come down, it is estimated that in a few days, Master Shi will go home. ”

"Then thank you for the good words of the big brother, and please take care of the master more, and I will be grateful."

"Zhou Gongzi is so generous, he is easy to say, easy to say."

"Childe, where are we going now?"

Looking back at the prison, Zhou Kangren's brows stretched, and he was no longer as anxious as Fang Cai, "It seems that Zhongtai doesn't seem to be in any danger." However, why did this guy quarrel with the emperor, he doesn't seem to be such an impulsive person. ”

"Childe"

"Well, on Tuesday, you go to the teacher's house immediately now, and tell Da Niu Zhongtai to go back in a few days, I'm afraid that this kid can't help but be angry and do something irreparable."

"Yes, Childe, the little one will go."

"Well, go quickly, I'll go home first."

Zhou Kangren waved his sleeves and left first, followed by Tuesday. At the same time, a purple-blue carriage drove in from the west.

Without waiting for the officers and men to come forward, one of the men who accompanied the carriage ran over, and only whispered in the ears of the officers and soldiers, and the officers and soldiers hurried in, and in a short time the cell head ran out.

"No need to salute."

"Thank you, princess."

Then, with Xiao Xing's support, Princess Ming Dai stepped down from the carriage.

Everyone hung their heads and did not dare to raise their heads, and the cell head also bowed their heads and carefully led the way.

"Princess, please."
