Chapter 18: Intimacy

"PS Zhao Hongrun: Add more to the second helmsman of this book, "True Super Saiyan". Also, ask for a ticket, and the ticket will be added."

Zongfu, also known as Zongrenfu in popular terms, is a special mansion of the royal family surnamed Zhao of the Great Wei Ji clan to deal with clan disputes and discipline the children of the clan.

The officials who served in the Zongfu were all from the royal family surnamed Ji Zhao, especially the "Zongling", "Zuo Zongzheng", and "Right Zongzheng", which were all royal relics who even today's son Zhao Yuanxi had to be honored as an uncle or uncle.

Because of this, the authority of the sect is also very large, and they don't care about anything else, they specialize in managing the people surnamed Ji Zhao.

From trivial matters to unforgivable crimes of usurping the throne and plotting rebellion, all the people surnamed Ji Zhao are convicted, and they are all handed over to the Zongfu to deal with and decide, even the Criminal Department and the Ministry of Rites have no right to interfere.

Even sometimes the decisions made by the Zongfu are powerless to change even if it is Zhao Yuanxi, the emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty, so it is conceivable that the status of the Zongfu can be understood.

Originally, Zhao Hongrun connived at the guards under his command to smash Chen Shuyan's Youzhi Palace, if the Zongfu came forward, the situation would be unfavorable to Zhao Hongrun, but at this moment, Zhao Hongrun was scratched by Chen Shuyan's face, then this matter is another matter.

Zhao Hongrun has the orthodox bloodline of the Ji family surnamed Zhao, attacking him and injuring him, this matter is not trivial, even if it is a concubine like Chen Shuyan who is favored by the emperor of the Great Wei, he will be severely punished in the end, at least he will be imprisoned for a year and a half, or he will be directly deposed.

After all, compared with Zhao Hongrun, Chen Shuyan is just a favored concubine, not the biological mother of any prince, according to the Zongfu's "Ji's Zhao's people-oriented" disposal principle, Chen Shuyan will definitely have a big trouble this time.

"This Eighth Highness is really far-sighted...... Could it be that he smashed Youzhi Palace, in order to make Chen Shuyan angry and crazy, and couldn't help but attack him? If this is the case, this son is scheming...... It's terrifying!'

Tong Xian thought quietly.

Now, it is no longer his turn to come forward to solve this matter, because once the Zongfu intervenes, even if it is the Emperor of Great Wei, I am afraid there is no way to interfere anymore.

"It's just ......"

Tong Xian's only worry is that once this matter involves the Zongfu, it will be a complete trouble, although the eighth prince Zhao Hongrun can't avoid a punishment, and it is even very likely that he will be ordered to think about it in the Zongfu, but that Chen Shuyan, her fate will undoubtedly be worse.

"Your Highness, please take a step to speak."

Tong Xian invited Zhao Hongrun to the corner and asked in a low voice, "Did His Highness really send someone to inform the Zongfu?" ”

No wonder Tong Xian is so careful, because once the Zongfu intervenes in this matter, this matter will evolve into a very tricky one, and at that time, in addition to Chen Shuyan and Zhao Hongrun, there will be a large number of people who will be punished by the Zongfu, including the palace maid of Youzhi Palace, the person who recommended Chen Shuxi at the beginning, and Shen Shufei of Ningxiang Palace, and the first to bear the brunt is him, the chief internal supervisor who is responsible for supervising the movements of the entire palace.

"Huh." Zhao Hongrun smiled slightly, lowered his voice and said to Tong Xian: "Don't worry, Gonggong Tong, if I really do this, wouldn't it be inevitable that even my mother and concubine will be accused of 'lax teaching' by the sect?" Scare and scare her. He pouted in the direction of Chen Shuyan.

"I'm afraid it's not as simple as scaring and scaring Chen Shuyan, right?"

Tong Xian took a deep look at Zhao Hongrun, the eighth prince in front of him, and said in his heart that Chen Shuyan, an ignorant concubine who had not been in the palace for a long time and had never been planted in the hands of the Zongfu, how could she know what a terrifying place the Zongfu was?

According to Tong Xian's inference, the reason why this Eighth Highness said this was only to tell him, or to convey it to the current son through his mouth: If the disposition of the Son of Heaven cannot satisfy me, then this matter will be handled by the Zongfu!

But even so, Tong Xian was still a little relieved in his heart. In any case, as long as the sect has not intervened in this matter, there is room for maneuver.

Thinking of this, he immediately said respectfully to Zhao Hong: "The old slave immediately went to the Vertical Arch Hall and told His Majesty about this matter. ”

"Father-in-law Tong is at his own convenience."

Zhao Hongrun smiled slightly, and walked to his original position. There, his guards had already set up a table and laid out mats.

"No one in the palace is allowed to trespass, otherwise the crime will be increased by one degree!"

Tong Xian's words seemed to be all said in the hall, but in fact, the objects of his reprimand turned out to be the guards invited by Chen Shuyan before, that is, the group of people who had just fought with Mu Qing and the other guards.

The guards looked at each other, they couldn't figure it out, they protected Chen Shuyan, but they were reprimanded by the great eunuch Tong Xian, in contrast, Zhao Hongrun, who caused a mess in Youzhi Palace, was safe and secure in the banquet, under the protection of his ten sect guards, looking at their group of people with a smile.

And the most incomprehensible thing is probably Chen Shuyan, she saw Zhao Hongrun smash her Youzhi Palace, but the great eunuch Tong Xian was kind and pleasant, and even spoke to him in a low voice, she knew that this matter might not end well.

"How so? This palace is His Majesty's favorite concubine!"

Chen Shuyan has a hard time accepting this fact.

"Can't figure it out?" Zhao Hongrun looked at Chen Shuyan, who had calmed down, with a smile.

"......" Chen Shuyan stared at Zhao Hongrun resentfully, and said coldly: "Zhao Hongrun, don't be complacent, wait for Your Majesty to come later, and this palace will see how you beg for mercy!" ”

"Oh? Are you sure? Zhao Hongrun shook his head, looked at Chen Shuyan and sighed: "You, you're still stupid, stupid!" …… Do you really think that your status is higher than that of the main hall? ”

"The palace is the most favored by His Majesty on weekdays......"

"So you're stupid! …… Your capital is nothing more than the favor of your father, but you are young and beautiful, what else is there? There are many young and beautiful women in my Dawei. However, His Royal Highness has the blood of the surname Zhao of the Great Wei Ji clan on his body, and he is the orthodox descendant of the Great Wei royal family...... According to the Great Wei ancestral system, as long as His Royal Highness does not commit the unforgivable crime of usurping rebellion, no matter what the rest do, the worst outcome is to be ordered to be confined by the Zongfu...... Of course, the father can dislike His Royal Highness and directly demote His Royal Highness to a commoner. But even if he is demoted to a commoner, His Royal Highness can still be a rich man, and the people of the Zongfu will not sit idly by and watch the people with the blood of the Ji family surnamed Zhao live on the streets and starve to death in a foreign land. Even if His Royal Highness dies at that time, the Zongfu will still send someone to take away His Highness's remains and bury them in the imperial mausoleum...... Why? Because His Royal Highness has the blood of the surname Zhao of the Great Wei Ji clan flowing in his body! ”

“……”

"And you? You are just a more favored concubine, you have never given birth to a son and a half daughter to your father, just by virtue of your appearance and your father's favor for you, how dare you dare to bully His Royal Highness's mother concubine? ! The mother concubine who bullied the two princes, Chen Shuxi, you are really arrogant! ”

"......" Listening to Zhao Hongrun's words of heart, Chen Shuyan's face became more and more pale.

She finally realized what Zhao Hongrun's biggest reliance was, that is, he was the prince, the orthodox lineage of the Zhao surname of the Great Wei Ji clan, and he was a royal descendant, but she was just an outsider.

"This palace doesn't believe it, this palace doesn't believe it......" Chen Shuyan covered her face and trembled.

"Don't believe me? We'll see. ”

After that, Zhao Hongrun straightened his clothes and took his ten sect guards away.

This time, no one dared to stop him.

At the same time, the great eunuch Tong Xian had hurriedly returned to the Vertical Arch Hall and told Zhao Yuanxi, the emperor of Great Wei, what he had seen and heard.

"What? Youzhi Palace was smashed? Hongrun's face was scratched and broken by Chen Shuxi? ”

Hearing this terrifying news, the Great Wei Tianzi was shocked, and the three Zhongshu ministers were even more dumbfounded.

"How could His Highness Eight do such a rebellious thing?"

Lin Yuyang, the right man in the middle book, was shocked.

"You know! Only allow Chen Shuyan to show off her power in Ningxiang Palace, and not allow His Royal Highness to fight back in Youzhi Palace? Although the strength of this counterattack is a little stronger, what is it compared to the Eighth Highness being scratched by Chen Shuyan, which led to the destruction of the phase, and the front hall of Youzhi Palace was smashed?"

Yu Ziqi glanced at Lin Yuyang unhappily.

"Let's stop the meeting, the two adults are not qualified to say anything about this matter, it depends on how His Majesty decides."

Zhongshu Ling He Xiangxu shook his head.

The three ministers of the Chinese book exchanged silently with their eyes.

Under their peeping eyes, Zhao Yuanxi, the emperor of Great Wei, was still raising his hand and rubbing his head, revealing a look of embarrassment.

After a long time, he slowly spoke: "That rebel son, what a good thing he has done!" ”

"Is this to punish His Highness the Eight?"

The three ministers of the Chinese book were shocked.

And at this time, he listened to the words of the Great Wei Tianzi, and sighed and said: "Chen Shuyan is also true, she is also the elder of the rebel, so what, she can't hurt the prince...... Tong Xian, is the rebel seriously injured? ”

Tong Xian thought for a while and said, "Although it is only a scratch on the skin, because it is injured on the face, according to the old slave, I am afraid that it will be broken......

"Ask the imperial doctor to go to Wenzhao Pavilion to diagnose and treat that rebel son, and be sure not to leave traces."

"Yes." Tong Xian bent down and reminded: "That Youzhi Palace......"

The Great Wei Tianzi rubbed his head and said, "When you go back, you send someone to count what was smashed, and then order the Ministry of Works to restore it to its original state, and all the money and materials spent during this period will be allocated from my inner treasury." ”

"Yes." Tong Xian lowered his head, and suddenly cautiously probed: "In this matter, won't Your Majesty personally go to Youzhi Palace?" ”

"What am I going to do?" Zhao Yuanxi glanced at Tong Xian in surprise: "Isn't it good to leave this matter to you?" ”

"Yes."

Tong Xian bowed down and left the Vertical Arch Hall, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"Chen Shuyan...... I'm afraid it's over.'"

Obviously, the front hall of Youzhi Palace was smashed, but afterwards, the Great Wei Tianzi never thought of going to Youzhi Palace in person to comfort and comfort Chen Shuyan, but he just asked the great eunuch Tong Xian to make the Ministry of Industry restore the front hall of Youzhi Palace to its original state, what does this mean?

In the blink of an eye, at night, when Tong Xian asked the Great Wei Tianzi which concubine's dormitory he was going to stay in tonight, and mentioned the Youzhi Palace in a timely manner, the Great Wei Tianzi did not choose Chen Shuxi.

"Chen Shuyan is afraid that she is still angry, and it is not appropriate for me to go, let's talk about it in a few days. …… Go to Ningxiang Palace, I want to tell Concubine Shen Shu what a big rebellion that rebel did today! That rebel, no matter how you teach, it's really not good! ”

"Yes." Tong Xian bowed his head.

After a while? Hey!

What does it mean for a concubine who relies solely on the emperor's favor to "live some days"?

After a while, will this Great Wei Tianzi still remember Chen Shuyan?

Comparatively speaking, don't look at the fact that the Emperor of Great Wei went to Ningxiang Palace these days mostly to inform Shen Shufei of her eldest son's bad deeds, but this time and again, Shen Shufei's status in the emperor's heart will undoubtedly be greatly improved.

"Could this be the original intention of His Royal Highness?"

Tong Xian secretly guessed, but unfortunately, he guessed wrong.

The eighth prince Zhao Hongrun's "pit father" plan to open up a new path is far from over.
