Chapter 354: In the Palace (Part II)

The Son of Heaven stuttered slightly, and generally didn't talk much, and when he saw Shang Ming running over and crying for no reason, he asked concisely, "Why?" ”

Shang Ming raised his head and said, "So that the emperor can learn that Wang Zhi from the West Factory forcibly broke into the East Factory prison to visit Fang Yingwu, and claimed to clean up the slaves." With his protection, how can the slaves and maids be judged! ”

The Son of Heaven was puzzled: "What does Wang Zhi want to do?" ”

Shang Ming replied: "The slave doesn't know, and she doesn't dare to ask!" I just heard that in just a few days, this is the fourth time that Wang Zhi has been in prison to go to Fang Yingwu. When the Fusi robbed people in Jinyiwei Town, it was once, twice in the West Factory, and once in the East Factory, and the slaves and maids didn't dare to talk half-heartedly. ”

The Son of Heaven had displeasure on his face and couldn't help frowning.

Shang Ming secretly observed the words, and was about to hand over a few more small words when he saw the little eunuch of Zhaode Palace trotting over from a distance, pounced in front of the Son of Heaven, and said, "See the emperor!" The concubine was so angry that she couldn't stop crying, and dared to ask the emperor to take a look! ”

At present, there is only one concubine in the palace, that is the most favored Wan Guifei Wan Zhen'er, and the queen is an existence that can be ignored. Speaking of Wan Guifei, she is also a strange person, she is a fellow villager of Empress Sun (Zhu Jianshen's grandmother) of the Xuanzong Dynasty, and she entered the palace at the age of four and grew up beside Empress Sun.

According to the normal trajectory, Wan Zhen'er was probably going to be given to Emperor Yingzong (Zhu Jianshen's father) as a concubine, who knows that history has turned a corner in Tumubao. At that time, Emperor Yingzong was hunting in the north, and in order to take care of her lonely grandson Zhu Jianshen, Empress Dowager Sun assigned Wan Zhen'er to be a palace maid next to Zhu Jianshen, who was two or three years old at the time.

At that time, no one expected that ten years later, Wan and Zhu Jianshen would become a male-female relationship, although Wan Zhen'er was seventeen years older than Zhu Jianshen. This pair is indeed extremely special in the eyes of the world, and it is even more strange and deformed in the eyes of the minister. What's even more incredible. Now twenty years have passed, and even beauties have grown old. But Zhu Jianshen's feelings for Wan Guifei are still extremely deep.

The palace is known as the three thousand beauties, but no one can successfully challenge the status of Wan Guifei, who has reached the age of fifty, even the queen can't, seventeen years ago, Queen Wu beat Wan Guifei, and was immediately abolished and replaced, who dares not to remember the lessons of the past? Therefore, the Zhaode Palace, where Wan Guifei lives, is still the most eye-catching place in the entire harem.

Without mentioning the gossip, hearing that Concubine Wan was crying angrily, Zhu Jianshen immediately stood up from the throne. Hurriedly asked, "How can you cry?" Who dares to be angry with Captain Wan? ”

"Today, the prince was ordered to go to Zhaode Palace to greet him, and the concubine gave the prince food and drink, but the prince insisted on not accepting it, and bluntly said that he was afraid of poison. Then the concubine was so angry that she couldn't stop crying. ”

Zhu Jianshen couldn't help but sigh, this Wan Guifei and the crown prince Zhu Youzhu really have no trust in each other, and they are sad. In fact, the prince went to Zhaode Palace to greet him today, and it was Zhu Jianshen who asked the prince to go, he wanted to promote harmony between the two, but he didn't expect it to be counterproductive.

It is said that Wan Guifei was jealous in her early years. gave birth to a child and died early, and since then there has been no queen in the palace for several years, so the old legend is the result of being secretly made bad by Concubine Wan.

And the current crown prince Zhu Youzhu is the product of an accidental encounter between the Son of Heaven and the palace maid, because he is afraid of being killed by Concubine Wan. Therefore, Concubine Wan Guifei was raised in the palace for five years, and it was not until the eleventh year of Chenghua that the father and son were recognized, and at the same time, Zhu Youzhu was canonized as the prince of the East Palace.

And then probably because he was worried that the prince would be assassinated. The biological mother of the Son of Heaven, Empress Dowager Zhou, took her grandson Zhu Youzhu to her side and personally took care of and raised her. It continues to this day. There are also rumors in the palace that the prince's biological mother died violently after the father and son recognized each other. It is also the poisonous hand of Wan Guifei.

With such a background and being in a palace full of intrigue and intrigues, the estrangement between Zhu Youzhang, the prince of the East Palace, and Wan Guifei of the Zhaode Palace can be imagined. Chenghua Tianzi wants to be a good person in the middle, but it is really difficult to resolve.

The little eunuch who came to report the news asked, "Do you want to drive to Zhaode Palace?" Zhu Jianshen reluctantly ordered: "Go find the chief Wan!" Call the East Palace too! Then he said to Shang Ming, who was still beside him: "I know what you said." ”

Shang Ming had no choice but to retreat, and the other eunuchs and palace maids around him were in a hurry, and at this time, suddenly another eunuch trotted over from a distance, and everyone could see that this person was the envoy eunuch beside the Empress Dowager Zhou.

But I saw this eunuch kowtowing at the feet of the Son of Heaven and said, "Emperor, the Holy Mother has called the slave and maid to pass the word!" Today, the Virgin Mary first instructed that the prince should not eat and drink in Zhaode Palace, so please don't blame the prince! If the emperor has leisure, he might as well go to appease the prince. ”

Zhu Jianshen was stunned, and couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh, his mother is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

The emperor's family is also a mortal family, just like many ordinary families in the world, the Empress Dowager Zhou, who is a mother-in-law, is extremely unpleasant to Wan's who is a "daughter-in-law". In particular, Wan Guifei is actually the same age as the Empress Dowager Zhou herself, which makes the Empress Dowager Zhou even more unbearable.

It's just that Zhu Jianshen, the son of heaven, is extremely obsessed with Wan's, and the Empress Dowager Zhou was born in a small family, and her scheming and wrist knowledge are far inferior to Wan's, and she has been helpless for many years. Of course, at the moment of filial piety, Zhu Jianshen is also a son who can be called filial piety, so Concubine Wan has nothing to do with the Empress Dowager Zhou.

The current situation that Zhu Jianshen is facing is like encountering a problem that may last through the ages - your mother and I fell into the water, who do you save first?

The Son of Heaven of Chenghua stood next to the imperial chariot for a while, and heard someone next to him whisper a reminder: "Emperor? The Emperor? ”

Zhu Jianshen came to his senses and ordered: "I will go to Concubine Chen first." Another Xuan Wang went straight into the palace and asked her to persuade Wan Waiter. ”

The Concubine Chen in the mouth of the Son of Heaven is another concubine, Shao Shi, who was named Concubine Chen in the twelfth year of Chenghua, and she is not an idle person, she is very favored in the harem, second only to Wan Guifei.

This Concubine Shao Chen had three sons, of which the eldest son Zhu Youqi was named the king of Xingxian in the history of another time and space, and he was good at Huguang Anlu, and this king of Xingxian was the father of the famous Jiajing Emperor in the history books.

In the history books, when Emperor Jiajing entered the palace from Huguang and ascended the throne, Concubine Shao Chen was almost seventy years old, blind, and had been lonely in the deep palace for many years. However, at this time, she was able to welcome her grandson into the palace to be the Son of Heaven, and once she raised her eyebrows and touched Emperor Jiajing's whole body from head to toe, and the tear-jerking scene can be called one of the top ten moments that moved the Ming Dynasty.

didn't mention it, but said that Zhu Jianshen sent a decree to let Wang Zhi enter the palace to persuade Wan Guifei, and naturally he also had his reasons, there were many secret things in the palace, but outsiders didn't know much about it.

This Wang Zhi, no, Wang Zhi was originally the little palace maid next to Concubine Wan, and she was only five or six years old when she entered the palace, which was not very noticeable. But because Wang Zhi resembles Wan Guifei's appearance when she was young, she is very favored by the concubine, Wan Guifei likes men's clothes, and Wang Zhi also follows the same example, often wearing men's clothes to wait around, and appears in front of people as a little eunuch Wang Zhi.

After Concubine Wan Guifei gave birth to a child and died early, she never got pregnant again, and under the sustenance of her heart, she regarded Wang Zhi as half a child, so Wang Zhi was able to be pampered and arrogant, and she was unscrupulous. The Son of Heaven loved the house and Wu because of Concubine Wan, so he indulged Wang Zhi and let her mess around.

It is precisely because Wang Zhi and Wan Guifei have this family affection that Zhu Jianshen will send an edict to Wang Zhi to enter the palace quickly to coax Wan Guifei when he is in this dilemma. (To be continued......)
