The truth of the matter is heard in the ears. Zhang Fan finally understood the whole thing. The ins and outs. Of course. Zhang Fan didn't have the slightest incomprehension. He also understands why Zhu Yijun is so close to this Ruan'er.

Lack of affection. No. To be more precise, Zhu Yijun lacks playmates of the same age.

Longqing's eldest son, Xianhuai, Prince Zhu Yili, was born and died at the age of five; Mourn Wang Zhu Yiling. He died before he was one year old. There is one left, Zhu Yiyi, who is less than a year old now. How could Zhu Yijun have any common language with him. Or play together or something. But even if Zhu Yijun wants to. It can't be either. Their biological mother, Li Guifei, took care of her little son like a baby. Even Longqing himself couldn't touch it.

Perhaps it is precisely because Zhu Yijun is Longqing's first son who grew up healthily. And when Longqing was the king of Yu. Because he was afraid that his father, Emperor Jiajing, would have terrible consequences if he was suspicious. Zhu Yijun has been carefully protected in King Yu's mansion. Since Longqing's accession to the throne. Maybe it's just to compensate Zhu Yijun. Whether it is the emperor and queen, the concubine Niangniang. is still a eunuch and maid in the palace. Or the Minister of the DPRK and China. treats Zhu Yijun, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and is prepared to be extremely tolerant. But fortunately, Zhu Yijun is very sensible. Never ask for anything too much. Therefore, the Ming court has a high evaluation of this prince.

However. It is Longqing's intention to compensate Zhu Yijun. He even admonished several of his daughters. Everything has to be done with Zhu Yijun. Therefore. The princesses knew their father's attitude towards their younger brother or elder brother. As long as I saw Zhu Yijun's face. They are all cautious. Even the naughtiest of them all. In front of Zhu Yijun, he is also full of etiquette. lest I lose a little face. Let this brother of mine have a bad opinion of them and bring himself some trouble.

So. Zhu Yijun's family life. Even when I was playing with a few sisters. All have to face this solemnity that borders on awe. How can an eight-year-old child stand it?

So. When Zhu Yijun met someone who didn't care about his identity at all. It's just about him as a person. Nothing will be hidden from him. Anything can be told to him. And for what she did, she can forgive such a woman who is similar to her sister's age. This kind of feeling will happen naturally. It had nothing to do with the person's appearance and background. It's all an inner expectation.

Of course. This incident is said to be accidental and coincidental. But it doesn't count. After all, Zhu Yijun has been longing for someone who can care about her like this for a long time. And this Ruan Er happened to appear in front of him. But Zhang Fan believed it. If it was not this Ruan Er who appeared in front of Zhu Yijun. It's other such women. Now the result is the same.

"Your Highness, after telling me the reason. Over and over again, I was told not to talk about it to anyone. Nurhachi added. Especially for Ruan Er. Your Highness, he even reminds me several times a day. Don't tell her the identity of His Highness. ”

This is better understood. Zhu Yijun's identity doomed him to loneliness. Maybe in the future, more people will approach Zhu Yijun for all kinds of etiquette. But those people were all in awe and behind them. Definitely won't open up to him. Even Zhu Yijun's own sisters can't just play with him with happiness and innocence. What's more, Ruan Er is such a poor actor with no appearance and family background. If this Ruan Er knew Zhu Yijun's identity. I'm afraid it's too late to dodge. How could he have any thoughts in his heart about seeing him as a younger brother.

"Jun'er...... What is his mind about this Ruan'er. Or what did he do? He told you. Zhang Fan asked. Now I understand the whole story. Zhang Fan began to think about the next step. Now he can be sure. Zhu Yijun has a lot of thoughts about this Ruan'er. But what is the relationship between the two of them really like? Zhang Fan has no concept at all. And. Most importantly. He didn't know how Zhu Yijun was going to deal with the future.

"How does His Highness treat this Ruan'er. I can't tell. But adults. Since His Royal Highness, he has to go to the opera garden every day to listen to Ruan'er singing. Talk to her and know that sunset will return. The relationship between His Royal Highness and Ruan Er is quite close. It's just a matter of specificity. I can't answer adults. Nurhachi thought for a moment. Said. "As for how His Highness plans to follow up. Your Highness, he mentioned some of them to me. One night. I will accompany His Highness back. On the way. Your Highness had something to say to me. He didn't know what I thought of Ruan Er at all. Obviously, His Highness has already made up his mind to help Ruan Er. His Highness, he asked me directly. What if he took Ruan Er to him? ”

"So what did you say?" Zhang Fan hurriedly asked.

Nurhachi thought for a moment. It seems to be wording. "I didn't mean to object at the time. It's just for the sake of His Highness. At that time, I asked His Highness. Tell him that there is no problem in getting Ruan Er to be a servant girl or something. Even if it is after His Royal Highness returns to Beijing with his lordship. It is estimated that it is not impossible to let this Ruan Er enter the palace to serve His Royal Highness. But how does His Highness plan to treat Ruan'er. Relying on His Royal Highness, Ruan Er regarded Ruan Er as his sister or something. It's okay when it's just the two of them. But what about later. His Royal Highness as the crown prince. Residence in the East Palace. Someone will come in the future. If it's the emperor or something, it's okay to say. If it's the ministers or something. Is His Highness willing to let Ruan Er salute them?

"And the back. Ruan Er is only twenty-eight years old now. But after all, it is much older than His Highness. Wait until ten years later. What about Ruan'er. His Royal Highness must have known that the palace maids in the palace were old. Not to stay in the palace. Instead, he was kicked out of the palace gates. They wasted their youth in the palace. After leaving the palace, he is no longer young. Is His Royal Highness willing to regard Ruan Er, who is regarded as his own sister, to suffer that sin. ”

"Jun'er, what did he say?" Zhang Fan asked.

"Your Highness didn't seem to have thought of this at first. Hear me out. I was also stunned. And then. His Highness was in some pain again. Nurhachi continued. But His Highness seemed to think of something after that. I was very happy to say to me. He is going to marry Ruan Er in the future. even said that he wanted her to be His Royal Highness's wife. I was amazed when I heard it. However, I also quickly persuaded His Highness to dispel this idea. Not to mention that His Royal Highness will ascend the throne in the future. As the queen mother of the world. Ruan Er is afraid that it will be inappropriate. For one, her appearance is somewhat ordinary. Second, her background is too ordinary. Even if it doesn't matter. I'm afraid the ministers won't agree to it. I spent some time at that time. The empresses have always been the daughters of important ministers in the court. Now His Royal Highness wants a commoner woman to be his future queen. And how could these ministers agree. They will never let go of this opportunity to improve the prestige of their rights. Instead, he said goodbye to a woman who had no family background. And. Most importantly. Ruan Er is a full eight years older than His Royal Highness. This is not in line with etiquette. When the time comes, not only ministers. His Royal Highness's elders would never agree.

"Your Highness listened to me. I was even more lost. It's not because I seem to be doing everything possible to prevent His Highness from being with Ruan Er. It's because His Highness understands that what I'm saying is only true. The consequences could even be more serious than what I have said. I thought about it. Said to His Highness. Why don't you give Ruan Er some money. Or maybe His Highness doesn't think it's enough. We can give her more. So that she can live the rest of her life comfortably. But His Highness disagreed. He said. He really hopes that Ruan Er can have a prosperous life. But he wanted Ruan Er to be with him even more. In this way. His Royal Highness can take care of Ruan Er all the time. I want to, though. His Royal Highness just wanted Ruan Er to stay by his side. ”

Listened to these. Zhang Fan also understood. He didn't pay much attention these days. So I didn't find anything wrong with Zhu Yijun. But after listening to Nurhachi's words. Zhang Fan suddenly remembered something. Zhu Yijun goes out every day. The faces were all radiant and happy. It's as if something great is going to happen to you. But every night. After Zhu Yijun returned. There was a distressed look on his face. It's as if he's running into some unsolvable trouble.

At that time. Zhang Fan is busy with many things. I didn't really care. And he just thought that Zhu Yijun didn't encounter anything interesting on the street. It's just a little boring. Now we know the cause and effect. Zhang Fan knew that Zhu Yijun at that time was originally worried about this matter.

"That's right. How did you find out about this?" asked Nurhachi. Until now. That's what he asked. Not that he's dull. Just before. He has been talking to Zhang Fan about some more important things. And I didn't care about that.

"Liang Chao told me." Zhang Fan sighed. Said. "He came this morning to report something to me. After that, I talked about it in passing. ”

"Then why did the adults come to me to ask?" Nurhachi continued to ask. "Didn't you go directly to Your Highness to ask about this?"

"Go. Jun'er came back. I went to him and asked. "Speaking of which. Zhang Fan sighed again. "But it must be the result. You got it, too. Jun'er, he didn't want to tell me about it at all. I don't even want to talk about what happened. And I found Jun'er to seem to hate people talking to him about it. For the first time. Jun'er paid no attention to me. Turn away. It seems that this Ruan Er is very important to him. ”

Nurhachi also nodded. The two were silent for a while. Nurhachi asked, "I heard that the adults will return to Yangzhou in a few days." ”

"Exactly." Zhang Fan replied.

"Your Excellency. Look at how it goes. Nurhachi thought for a moment. Said. "Since His Highness is unwilling to talk about this matter with your lordship. I think it's up to me. I'll talk to Your Highness tomorrow on the way to the opera garden. Inquire into the tone of His Highness. ”

"It's fine." Zhang Fan nodded. "I'm going to have someone check this Ruan'er."

"Do you think, sir......" Nurhachi looked at Zhang Fan with some surprise. Could it be that Lord Fa discovered something. ”

Zhang Fan smiled and shook his head. "No," he said. I don't see anything yet. But it may not be related. Maybe it matters. It's better to be careful. ”
