The prince and grandson chased after him, and the green beads wept tears and scarves.

As soon as he entered the waiting door, it was as deep as the sea, and Xiao Lang was a passerby from then on.

This is a seven-word quatrain written by Cui Jiao in the Tang Dynasty, which shows the strictness of the mansion of the wealthy family, and many people may not be able to get out for the rest of their lives once they enter.

The most obvious is the palace, so many show girls enter the palace, these beauties live in that luxurious "cage" all their lives, however, many people have never even seen the face of the emperor in their lives, and they have never been out of the palace again in their lives, and they can only spend beautiful flowers in the palace walls.

There are also people who are fortunate to be favored by the king and enjoy the glory and wealth in the royal palace.

Concubine Lu Jing is one of the lucky ones.

In March of the thirteenth year of Jiajing, Concubine Lu Jing was named one of the "Nine Concubines" by virtue of her appearance, Feng He Concubine, gave birth to King Jing in 16 years, her mother was noble by her son, Concubine Jin Jing, and was favored by Jiajing.

Entering the palace, without the approval of the emperor, you can't go out of the palace at will, what you need, you can buy it with the palace maid and procurement, only some concubines with high status and special status can save their relatives, go out of the palace to worship the Buddha and other treatments, and can give birth to a son for Jiajing, and Concubine Lu Jing can also go out of the palace to worship the Buddha.

Chinese New Year's Eve, that is the last day of the year, many people will go to the temple to offer incense, this is the summary of the year, thank the gods for the protection of this year, by the way to pray for the coming year's wind and rain, a large number of believers flock to the temples everywhere, especially those famous temples, it is overcrowded.

As the oldest and most prestigious Tanzhe Temple in the capital, it is crowded with people, and people come from all over the world to worship and worship sincerely.

At this time, the monks of Tanzhe Temple are undoubtedly the busiest, not only to extradite pilgrims, explain Buddhist scriptures, but also have to instruct pilgrims how to worship, not only ordinary monks are busy. Even the senior monks in the temple are not idle, and they also have to receive dignitaries.

Since the black-clothed prime minister Yao Guangxiao lived in seclusion in Tanzhe Temple, Tanzhe Temple has formed a good relationship with the dignitaries of the Ming Dynasty, and many people are accustomed to worshipping and giving alms here, even the concubines of the palace are no exception, such as Concubine Lu Jing in the palace. It is a frequent visitor to Tanzhe Temple.

There are many believers, and they have to receive these dignitaries, which undoubtedly requires proper arrangements, but fortunately, Tanzhe Temple has long had rich experience and knows how to divert and extradite, so that everything is in order.

For the top and bottom of Tanzhe Temple, the most special guest received today is Concubine Lu Jing from the palace.

The emperor's concubines are not easy to see by ordinary people. You can't worship with ordinary people, and every time Concubine Lu Jing worships, she has to temporarily clear the venue.

After worshiping Guanyin and worshiping the Arhats, worshiping the Arhats and worshiping the Buddha, plus giving alms and enjoying the beautiful scenery of the Tan in Zhe Temple, it took half an hour before and after, and finally under the arrangement of Master Jiyuan, taste the dishes specially prepared by Tan Zhe Temple for Concubine Lu Jing.

So much to do in half an hour. There was definitely not much time.

First, there is a limit on the time to leave the palace, and second, Concubine Lu Jing is also sympathetic to the people. I couldn't bear to wait outside the temple for too long, because when she worshipped, the common people could only wait outside.

Tan Zhe Temple has a long history, beautiful scenery, and has a great reputation in the capital, and the food of Tan Zhe Temple. The master here is also good at using tofu as an ingredient, then carving it into various shapes, and then cooking it with secret methods to make a dish that is fragrant, colorful, and flavorful. It's amazing.

Concubine Lu Jing's status is special, and she has the privilege of clearing the venue in advance when worshipping, that is, she does not go to the dining hall like ordinary people to eat fasting, but eats in a separate quiet room next to the young master's meditation room.

It's a secluded location with a nice view of the beautiful merlin outside, which is definitely a nice place to go.

After the food was delivered, those little novices quickly retreated, and even the personal palace maids also retreated outside the door to wait.

Facing the table full of exquisite fasting rice, Concubine Lu Jing, who has always liked fasting rice, did not move her chopsticks, but looked around, as if waiting for someone.

With a "squeak", the cabinet door in the corner of the quiet room suddenly opened, and a man in ordinary clothes came out.

The glamorous imperial concubine drilled out a man when she was eating alone, and she would lose her face if she changed it, but Concubine Lu Jing was not only not surprised, but also had a strong love in her eyes.

"Mother, you're okay, cough cough," the man finished speaking, and there was a second low cough.

It was coughing with a towel tightly over his mouth so as not to be heard loudly by the outside.

If a strange man's voice came from Concubine Lu Jing's room, it would be a big deal.

The person who came was none other than King Jing Zhu Zaizhen, the biological son of Concubine Lu Jing.

"Emperor, my emperor has lost weight."

As soon as she saw King Jing, Concubine Lu Jing was suddenly excited, and immediately rushed over and hugged King Jing tightly in her arms, for fear that he would run away, and the tears fell like broken beads.

No mother can bear to part with her son.

"Mother, the child is not filial, and he can't serve you by his side." King Jing was also moved, hugged Concubine Lu Jing tightly, and said with a little choked up.

In fact, the relationship between King Jing and Concubine Lu Jing has always been very good, after all, blood is thicker than water, and when they were in the capital in the past, the two of them cooperated seamlessly.

King Jing was able to delay until Jiajing for forty years to go to the domain, and Concubine Lu Jing contributed greatly.

The mood calmed down slightly, and Concubine Lu Jing said worriedly: "Zhen'er, aren't you in Anlu?" How did you get back? If you let your father or the minister know that you have returned to the capital, it will be a big deal. ”

Divide the feudal domain, without the emperor's summons, you can't leave the domain without permission, otherwise it will be a rebellion, and the son will definitely come back secretly when he meets him in this way.

On the same day, when she received a secret letter from King Jing to the palace, Concubine Lu Jing thought that someone was playing tricks on her, and after confirming that it was handwriting and tokens, she was immediately shocked.

King Jing gritted his teeth and said, "Mother, the emperor will never come back, I am afraid that in the near future, this world is so big that it will no longer be able to accommodate our mother and son." ”

"Zhen'er, you haven't given up yet?" Concubine Lu Jing sighed and said helplessly.

Zhi'er is like a mother, King Jing's thoughts, where does Concubine Lu Jing know?

"Mother, you are willing to lose to that slut, and you will rely on her to snort and speak in the future?" King Jing stared at Concubine Lu Jing and roared in a low voice.

Concubine Lu Jing didn't speak, but the light in her eyes showed that she was extremely unwilling.

"I'm not reconciled" King Jing said with a hideous face: "I'm smarter than him, I'm nobler than him, I'm more capable than him, and he's just a small wild seed of the palace girl, and he was born a month earlier than me. ”

"Emperor, now the ministers of the court and the central government all support him, Xu Jie, Gao Gong, Zhao Jin and others all support King Yu, you also know your father, and I still love you in my heart, but in this matter, your father and emperor can't help, and your mother can't help in this matter." Concubine Lu Jing wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said helplessly.

In order to prevent relatives from sitting big and endangering the royal family, the draft of the Ming Dynasty was mostly a show girl among the electorate, and in the establishment of the queen, he also liked to use a woman with little family power, Jiajing is a smart person, knows the importance of the harem, and strictly prohibits the harem from interfering in the government.

Concubine Lu Jing is at most blowing the pillow wind and competing for favor, but on the issue of establishing a successor, she can't intervene at all.

"Mother, don't be so disappointed" King Jing comforted Concubine Lu Jing instead: "There is no endless road, as long as that nest does not ascend the throne for a day, I will have a chance one day." ”

"It's difficult, King Nayu has been trembling, and he does things in line with the principle of not seeking merit, but seeking no mistakes, and it is too difficult to bring him down." Concubine Lu Jing said helplessly.

King Yu hides in King Yu's Mansion on weekdays and does not make mistakes, which makes it difficult to find mistakes.

King Jing sneered and said: "Do more wrong, do less wrong, if you don't do it, it's definitely right, he has a good calculation, as long as he keeps himself, he can ascend to the throne, and there are Xu Jie, Gao Gong and others to escort him and enjoy his achievements, but this king will not let him get his wish." ”

"What does the emperor mean?"

"Concubine Du Kang!"

"She?"

King Jing nodded and said: "That's right, mother, now there are capable people around King Yu, and Xu Jie has completely fallen to him, the child is not his opponent, now he can only hope for the mother, hoping that the mother concubine can help the child." ”

Concubine Lu Jing went out of the palace to see King Jing, she knew that he had something to ask for, she was also a decisive person, she nodded when she heard the words and said, "Okay, what does the emperor want to do for his mother, you can only come." ”

If King Jing can continue to unify, he can also dominate the harem and become the queen and queen mother on top, Concubine Lu Jing's ambition is not less than that of King Jing.

Family affection plus power, she did not hesitate to stand on King Jing's side. (To be continued.) )
