Volume 2 Chapter 189 Spring Peace

The father said that letting the eldest brother Zhu Gaochi be the crown prince is the meaning of the queen mother. The queen mother should mean that, but can the queen mother be the master of this kind of big event?

Xu's body is indeed not very good, there is no blood on his face, and his speech is a little soft. When the mother and son met, she said that she often had headaches. Zhu Gaoxu had no choice but to say some comforting words.

Zhu Gaoxu's words to take care of his body are indeed sincere. Now that the crown prince has been determined, if the queen mother can live a long life, it will be a kind of protection for Gao Xu.

…… Walking out of Kunning Palace, except for the main hall standing in the middle, there is nothing around, and there is only a flat and empty brick floor within the red wall.

Dense clouds are above the wide Miyagi, and the momentum is magnificent, like a mountain pressing the realm.

Occasionally, there are eunuchs wearing moon-white dresses carrying things and holding dust, walking in the distance with small steps, and people appear here respectfully and cautiously.

This time, Miaojin sent Zhu Gaoxu out again, but the palace and the inner house of King Yan were not the same, and it was very inconvenient to even speak...... There is a wide line of sight here, and there are many people, and under the eyes of everyone, people will have a sense of restraint, and they will subconsciously worry that something is wrong and will be looked at and discussed. So it's not Miaojin who sent Zhu Gaoxu alone, otherwise it won't look good; There is also a eunuch Zheng He by his side.

Since Zheng He sent it, Miaojin still followed, should he have something to say?

So Zhu Gaoxu said to Zheng He: "Gonggong Zheng is waiting for me on the west side of the Jiaotai Palace, I want to say a few goodbyes to my little aunt." Although I won't leave Beijing for a while and a half, I don't come to the imperial harem very often. ”

"The slave obeys." Zheng He immediately bowed.

According to the etiquette system, the emperor lives in the Qianqing Palace, the queen lives in the Kunning Palace, and the main hall in the middle is the Jiaotai Palace. From the gate of Kunning Palace, it is very close to the Jiaotai Palace.

When Zheng He left first, Zhu Gaoxu and Miaojin slowly walked forward one after the other, and he quickly turned his head and said, "Miaojin was forcibly left in the palace because of the holy decree?" ”

Miao Jin was stunned for a moment, shook her head and said, "The queen treats me very well." ”

Zhu Gaoxu took the opportunity to turn around and carefully looked at Miaojin's expression, but he didn't find anything unusual. Her eyes flickered, her cheeks flushed slightly, or she didn't know what to do to face Gao Xu.

Zhu Gaoxu pondered for a moment, then turned back again and said in a deep voice: "I'll go to Yunnan first, if I stay there for a long time and get familiar with the ground, I'll take Miaojin over." ”

"Hmm." Miao Jin pursed her lips and smiled, but she smiled a little reluctantly.

Even if it was a light smile, Zhu Gaoxu was a little stupid. Her charming almond eyes are really beautiful, even if she is wearing a coarse sermon robe, just the smile in her eyes and her wonderful figure, against the backdrop of the magnificent Miyagi, are really beautiful and fragrant.

Zhu Gaoxu looked back at the tall palaces around him, and suddenly felt a little uneasy.

The two of them walked very slowly, but it would not take long to reach the Jiaotai Palace. Zhu Gaoxu felt as if he hadn't said anything, and he had already seen Zheng He's figure.

"Do you have anything to say to me?" Zhu Gaoxu asked.

"King Gaoyang, take care." Miao Jin said softly.

Zhu Gaoxu nodded, turned around and hugged his fists and saluted: "Don't send it far, I'll go out with Zheng He." ”

Miao Jin pursed her lips, reached out and stroked her hair bun, and made some trivial movements, only then did she hesitate to speak, and said softly: "Remember the Chinese New Year's Eve in Beiping?" King Gaoyang saved me, but I said that you are only greedy for my beauty; And you say, 'If you want to count it like that,' all the women who come near you will be for your riches. ”

Zhu Gaoxu nodded slightly.

Miao Jin's words paused, and said: "I am not the 'all the women who are close to you', I have not tried anything from you, and I will not harm you." Remember? ”

Miaojin is about the same age as Zhu Gaoxu, but occasionally shows a tone like an elder teaching a junior, which makes Zhu Gaoxu slightly at a loss.

"Hmm." Zhu Gaoxu replied.

Miaojin said again, but it seemed to be full of sadness. The sadness permeated the entire palace, like clouds in the sky, which could not be dissolved.

Zhu Gaoxu said: "You too." Farewell. ”

…… The edict dividing the kings and princesses was soon promulgated. This time, the only person who should be dissatisfied with the enclosure was Zhu Gaoxu, but Zhu Gaochu did not resist. So things went well, and the canonization ceremony followed.

The emperor's eldest son, Gao Chi, was appointed as the crown prince, and the East Palace was built in the Chunhe Palace and the Wenhua Palace. The second son, Zhu Gaoxu, was crowned the king of Han and built a royal palace in Kunming (changed to the fief of King Min in Huguang Wugangzhou). The third son, Zhu Gaosui, was crowned King of Zhao and built a royal palace in Beiping.

The emperor also had five daughters, all of whom were princesses.

Except for the crown prince, both brothers are princes; The third brother was actually sealed to Beiping, Rao is Zhu Gaoxu has a good mentality, and he also feels very unfair! The third brother didn't do anything in the "Battle of Jingjing", and the eldest brother at least kept guarding the city of Beiping.

Zhu Gaoxu thought about it again, if he was sealed to Beiping, his power would radiate to the nine sides...... That's obviously impossible.

Regardless of whether Zhu Gaoxu was happy or not, everyone was very happy. In the coming months, there will be several more royal celebrations.

The third brother Zhu Gaosui wants to get married and marry the daughter of the general Xu Zhang; The third sister and the fourth sister were married to the two sons of the Northwest general Song Sheng; The eldest brother wants to accept Guo Ming's eldest daughter Guo Yan as the second concubine of the crown prince.

……

What is the perfect thing in the world?

Guo Yan can only comfort herself like this. When she was busy preparing, she was thinking about her life's events, and the only imperfection was the identity of the second concubine.

Other than that, she was very satisfied, as if she was going to the Heavenly Palace! As the most fortunate person among women, you probably have so many things. Those women who just find someone to marry don't know what they can do.

The crown prince has moved to the imperial city of Chunhe Palace to live, and the imperial city will also be Guo Yan's home in the future...... In contrast, although my sister is the princess and concubine, she is going to Yunnan!

Yunnan is thousands of miles away from Beijing, and it is said to be a barbarian land, full of miasma and murderous toast. Gao Xu is such a bad person, and it really doesn't end well, and his sister won't be happy if she follows him as a concubine. Thinking of this, Guo Yan felt a little guilty, and always felt a little sorry for her sister.

The dowry has been delivered to Guo's mansion in advance. Guo Yan's dowry was handled by her father, although it was not as rich as when her sister got married, but she didn't care. The royal family is rich in the world, she wants to go to the East Palace, is she still short of brocade clothes and food?

Guo Yan got up before dawn to dress up, because the beloved person who was the crown prince was waiting for her in the imperial city.

The people of Shandong, who did not hesitate to use military rations to help the suffering, and the crown prince, known as the "benevolent and holy son of heaven", was deeply loved by the world; The sons of the heavenly family who are full of poetry and books, and even the minister Hongru, who is full of poetry and books, also praises one after another.

Guo Yan was carefully dressed up under the service of the palace maid, and at the same time covered her mouth with a handkerchief from time to time, and couldn't help but laugh quietly.

Xu Shi came into the house, chattering constantly, and did not stop saying a few words. When the palace maids and slaves went out, Xu quietly advised: "Yan'er, don't be careful, when your sister got married, I also warned her." ”

"Hmm." Guo Yan blushed and replied softly. Most of what Xu said didn't listen to her ears; At this time, my heart was up and down, and my brain was dazed, how could I sink my heart to listen to so many small thoughts of the Xu family?

Xu Shi kept whispering: "What your sister said, I didn't sleep that night, and I thought about it for half the night...... But beware of the crown princess Zhang. Don't just look at the prince in your eyes, the most important thing in your heart is the crown princess, understand? ”

"Got it." Guo Yan said softly. She didn't think she was smiling, but she had a shy smile on her face all the time, glowing red.

Xu began to talk about Guo Yan's biological mother again, "My sister is good, I didn't deal with her at first, but later we got along well with each other." It's a pity that she left early, otherwise you would have ...... if you let your mother teach you how to be a concubine."

As soon as she said this, Guo Yan somehow happened to listen to this sentence, and her face suddenly changed. She hurriedly held back, so she didn't blurt out: Yes, my mother is the life of a concubine, and I am also the life of a concubine! But I'm not a concubine, I'm the crown prince and second concubine!

Xu should have noticed Guo Yan's strange appearance, she had already stopped her words, and changed her words: "No matter what, Yan'er is always your father's biological daughter." I also promised your mother that I would treat you as my own daughter, and I must take good care of you. ”

"I know my mother is good to me." Guo Yan said softly again.

On the big day, she didn't want to say something upset.

Xu gritted his teeth, attached his ear to Guo Yan's ear, and whispered: "I want to say something for my mother." After you arrive at the East Palace, you must remember the booklet and what was written in it given to you by Wen Po two days ago, and you must give birth to the emperor and grandson as soon as possible while the prince feels fresh...... In the future, the crown prince will inherit the throne, and after long live, at least you don't have to be martyred. ”

Guo Yan only heard the first two sentences, and immediately blushed.

She nodded slightly, because her mother mentioned it, she couldn't help but imagine it, her head was even more dizzy, and her eyes were foggy. She seemed to see a handsome and noble man, brushing her with slender white fingers, and whispering love words in her ears.

Guo Yan felt that her whole head was very hot, and she wanted to listen carefully to what he said, but she came back to her senses, and it was an illusion in a trance.

In the morning, the guard of honor to greet the second concubine of the crown prince arrived. Guo Yan heard that according to the etiquette system, the crown prince could not come in person, but it was nothing, anyway, she couldn't see it now, and her head was covered by a red phoenix-patterned turban.

Under the support and guidance of the female deacon, Guo Yan got on the phoenix sedan chair and went to the imperial city.

There was also a female deacon sitting in the sedan chair, so Guo Yan was embarrassed to remove her headscarf and look outside.

The walls and towers of the imperial city, Guo Yan had seen them before, except for the imperial garden in the north of the palace, he had never been to other places. There were people's singing and answering outside, and she could only rely on her thoughts, thinking about the magnificence and wealth behind the red wall.

The crown prince's residence, Chunwa Palace, is a place where the sun is warm and beautiful just by listening to the name.

It's just a pity that it's either raining or cloudy for a while, and the sun hasn't come out today.
