Chapter XXXIII

In the Qinzheng Palace, the ministers congratulated the emperor on his wedding the next day, and said a lot of flattering words, Han Ruzi was absent-minded, and Yu Guang always couldn't help but glance at the Tingzheng Pavilion, the Queen Mother was inside, is she really the kind of person described by the imperial concubine? Is she really willing to kill her own son?

Every time he thought about this, Han Ruzi shuddered.

Regarding the death of Emperor Si, the imperial concubine did not say much, it was late at that time, she could not stay in the emperor's room for too long, and said before leaving: "Your Majesty is clear, I said these past events not to turn over old accounts, but just to tell Your Majesty that I am willing to stand on Your Majesty's side, and the ministers in the court are also willing." ”

Han Ruzi couldn't help but believe the words of the imperial concubine, his own experience was evidence, he still remembered how narrow the living environment was when he was a child, he had never been taught by his master, and his mother taught him to read.

For a royal family, this is a very unusual encounter, completely out of line, he didn't feel special before, after entering the palace, he gradually understood that he had been oppressed all his life, only under the careful care of his mother, he was unaware.

He still did not fully believe in the imperial concubine, especially about the ministers of the court, after all, the past is the past, and the attitude of the ministers is the decisive force at present.

Han Ruzi even wanted to talk directly with a certain minister, but the opportunity was really rare, and in the Qinzheng Palace, he couldn't even make eye contact with the minister.

There was no homework in the morning, and the time to listen to the government was very short, and after receiving the greetings from the ministers, the emperor was taken to rehearse the wedding process.

For the emperor, the big wedding was not a complicated matter, and most of the etiquette was carried out by the empress, and it took a whole day from morning to night, which was more complicated than the emperor's accession to the throne. During this period, the emperor only needs to pay homage to the ancestors in the Taimiao, meet the queen mother in Cining Palace, and finally appear when entering the cave room, and at other times, he is either idle or sitting in a side hall to accept the princes and ministers to worship in turn.

The ceremony was quickly completed, and after lunch, the emperor came to Tai'an Palace.

Tai'an Palace is the emperor's official residence, because Han Ruzi has not yet got married, he will change places in a few days, and when the marriage is completed tomorrow, he will always live here.

The palace is also the location of the cave house, where the newlywed queen will live for three days and three nights, and then move to the area where the concubine lives, and from then on she will meet the emperor according to etiquette like a minister.

Han Ruzi stood in the new house, looking at the gorgeous and bright brocade quilt and drapery, his mind was still not in front of him, he had to find a way to verify the imperial concubine's statement, the opportunity could not be missed, but he could not be taken the bait casually.

His mother reminded him not to trust anyone or offend anyone after entering the palace, the latter is difficult to do, and the former must be remembered.

The imperial concubine and Wang Meiren were not familiar with each other, so they didn't say much, but the few things mentioned made Han Ruzi look at her mother with admiration, and she felt more and more that her reminder must be useful.

Han Ruzi turned around and met the jealous and angry gaze of the East China Sea King.

The idea popped up at this moment.

"Stand down, I'm going to be here alone for a while."

The accompanying dozen eunuchs and ceremonial officials withdrew from the room, and the emperor could not control state affairs, and this small request could still be satisfied.

Han Ruzi sat on the bed for a while, how could he think that tomorrow's marriage is a ridiculous and ridiculous thing, but there are so many people who are seriously busy with this, this is also the power of "convention", he thought, laughed silently, and shouted: "The king of the East China Sea come in!" ”

After a while, the King of the East China Sea walked in with a suspicious face, as long as there were no outsiders, he refused to salute, nor did he hide the resentment in his heart, and stared at the emperor coldly.

"I don't even know the name of the queen." Han Ruzi said.

The resentment in the eyes of the king of the East China Sea reached its peak in an instant, and his whole body tensed, as if he was about to pounce on him, and a eunuch probe at the door took a look, and the king of the East China Sea bowed down and replied: "The queen's surname is Cui, her name is warm, and the word Xiaojun." ”

"Cui Nuan? Good...... Special name. Han Ruzi didn't know what to say, and there was a eunuch at the door again.

"My cousin is very pampered at home, so she named her Nuan." The King of the East China Sea was inexplicably angry, turned his head and shouted, "What are you looking at? When I talk to the royal brother, do you hear me? Get out of the way! ”

No one probes anymore.

Han Ruzi smiled, some things really need someone like the King of the East China Sea to do, "I know that you like the Cui family's cousin very much and don't want her to be my queen." ”

The king of the East China Sea didn't squeak, he didn't want to be caught again, and it was enough to do that kind of thing once.

Han Ruzi stood up and walked slowly towards the East Sea King, "Actually, I don't want to. ”

"Don't want to marry the queen?" The East Sea King didn't believe it at all.

"The queen was not chosen by me, everything was not decided by me, of course I don't want to."

The King of the East Sea lowered his gaze, "You don't need to tell me this. ”

"I guess it's better to be clear. You still have a connection with Master Luo, right? ”

The King of the East Sea immediately became vigilant, "What have you heard?" Who's gossiping? I don't know anything. ”

"Wasn't Luo Huanzhang your master in the past? When the master and apprentice meet, there must be something to say. ”

"In front of you and the eunuchs, what do we dare to say?" The King of the East China Sea widened his eyes and looked like he didn't admit it, and it didn't take long for him to be deflated, "Master Luo once gave me a letter, and scolded me in the letter, saying that I ...... You won't tell the Queen Mother, will you? ”

"No, and I can't see the Queen Mother."

"Luo Shi is very dissatisfied with my performance in the palace, saying that I am arrogant and rude, do not abide by the courtier's festival, and sooner or later I will cause big trouble for the Cui family, he asked me to serve you honestly - I am unlucky enough, I did not get sympathy, and I was scolded, now you can understand the difference between being an emperor and not being an emperor."

Han Ruzi had already understood that the purpose of his asking these words was not to inquire about privacy, but to confirm whether the note of "Shang Si Rou" had anything to do with the King of the East China Sea, and neither Luo Huanzhang nor the imperial concubine said how the note was stuffed into the emperor's belt.

After asking a few words, Han Ruzi became more and more convinced that the King of the East China Sea had nothing to do with this matter, and Luo Huanzhang and the Imperial Concubine were extremely careful people, and would never hand over such an important task to the King of the East China Sea.

Han Ruzi is the opposite, he has no one else to entrust, and the King of the East China Sea is the only choice, "I have an idea. ”

"Why do you tell me if you have an idea?"

"This idea has something to do with you."

"I'm not interested, I'm just unlucky, I can honestly be an attendant."

"It's about your cousin."

Anger flashed in the eyes of the East Sea King, he was like a hornet's nest, he was stabbed and then counterattacked, completely ignoring whether it was a gesture of goodwill or a demonstration.

"I'm a fake emperor, and your cousin can also be a fake queen." Han Ruzi said.

"You're not a fake emperor, you're a puppet...... What does a fake queen mean? ”

"Tomorrow is the day of the wedding, the queen and I will live in the Tai'an Palace for three days, and I promise not to do anything to her, and I will not do anything in the future."

"You're only a few days older than me, and your cousin is a year younger than me, and they're all children, what else can you do to her?" The King of the East Sea looked disdainful.

To be honest, Han Ruzi didn't know what he could do, and after thinking for a while, he said, "The Queen Mother sent a palace maid to teach me the way of husband and wife, you should have heard of it, right?" ”

They all lived in the Imperial Concubine's Cining Palace, of course the King of the East China Sea would not be unaware, and the corners of his mouth twitched twice, "You can really do it...... Do nothing? ”

"It's not that hard, it's up to me whether I want to or not."

The corners of the East Sea King's mouth twitched again, "If you lie, my cousin will definitely tell me." ”

"Of course."

The King of the East China Sea began to seriously consider the emperor's thoughts, "Do you want to win me over and the Cui family to help you fight against the Queen Mother?" I'll have to think about it. ”

Han Ruzi smiled, Luo Huanzhang and the imperial concubine didn't pull the king of the East China Sea into the gang, and he wouldn't, "It's not so complicated, I just want you to do me a small favor." ”

"Oh." The King of the East China Sea looked a little disappointed, "Actually, as long as I open my mouth, the Cui family will definitely help you, but the benefits you give are too small, so you have to ...... the throne" The King of the East China Sea was cautious, did not say the rest of the words, and nodded at the emperor.

"I don't want to confront the Queen Mother, I just want to inquire about my mother's safety, and if possible, bring a letter."

"Isn't your mother the Queen Mother?" The King of the East China Sea said sarcastically, seeing that the emperor looked serious, he changed his words: "You really only have this request? ”

Han Ruzi nodded, "Don't use Master Luo when delivering the message. ”

Of course, he would have disagreed, and he might have tore up the letter on the spot. Well, let me think about it...... Junyang Hou's youngest son, Huahu Wang, has the best relationship with me, and he is also an attendant in the palace, so he can help with this. The king of Donghai walked in front of the emperor and said very seriously: "You are the emperor, you have no jokes, and you promise not to touch the queen, even if you don't touch your fingers." ”

"Guaranteed." Han Ruzi didn't think it was so difficult, and after hesitating for a moment, he added, "But if the queen is ...... Pester me like a palace maid......"

"Impossible." The King of the East Sea simply denied it, "You just have to watch yourself." ”

"My mother lives in ......"

Han Ruzi was just about to say the address, and the king of the East China Sea waved his hand, "If you can't even inquire about this little thing, the Junyang Hou family will be called 'Houmen Heroes' in vain." There are not a few liehous left in Taizu Feng now, and Junyang Hou is the most stable one. Forget it, you don't understand it. ”

Han Ruzi really didn't understand, but he kept the title of Junyang Hou and "Houmen Heroes" in his heart, "As soon as possible." ”

"Not today, not tomorrow, the day after tomorrow...... The day after tomorrow at the latest, I'll tell the Tiger King about this, and then it may take a few days to hear back, and you have to write a letter, or give me some tokens or something. ”

"I'll give it to you. Flower Tiger King, is this his real name? Han Ruzi didn't think it was like the name of a disciple of the Hou Sect.

"Who knows if it's his real name, his surname is Hua, everyone calls him Tiger King, our good friends...... You don't have to worry about this, just prepare the token and wait for the letter to be answered. ”

Han Ruzi didn't ask any more, his goal was achieved, Yang Feng was not there, Meng E could only do martial arts, and only his mother could give him direct guidance.

The only problem is the King of the East Sea, so far, he has not accomplished anything, but he has caused a lot of trouble. Han Ruzi said solemnly: "If my mother's letter falls into someone else's hands, or if the news leaks out, don't blame me for being ruthless. ”

"What else can you do?"

"I'm going to go the way of husband and wife with the queen, and let her give birth to a prince for me." Han Ruzi really had no other way to threaten the King of the East China Sea.

The East Sea King's expression changed, and finally he said with a little weakness: "You dare." ”
