Chapter 64: Concubine Shu

The emperor on the dragon chair stared at his son who was kneeling on the ground for a long time, and finally nodded: "In this way, this matter will be investigated by the Fusi of Beizhen." ”

"Command!" The Jinyi guards commanded the king bird to come forward to receive the order.

"Father Xie is the master of his sons." The third prince knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice, but tears rolled in his eyes.

The second prince, Xiao Peilang, was silent throughout the whole process, his fists in his sleeves were clenched, and he glanced at Shoufu Bai Qing when he retreated.

When the emperor returned to the imperial study, Concubine Shu was waiting outside the door, she wore a dark green and gold thread robe today, with a long gold and jade pendant, which looked gorgeous and solemn. Seeing that the emperor did not greet him attentively, he just bent over and saluted.

Emperor Tai'an raised his legs and entered the hall: "What's the matter?" But the plea came. ”

Concubine Shu followed up with the imperial study and sighed: "I want to intercede, Chen'er has been stubborn since he was a child, he is alone outside, and I can't reach the whip of the queen mother, and I am always worried that he will cause trouble." This time, let him learn a lesson, and it's good to have a long memory. ”

The emperor turned his head: "Aren't you worried that he will cause a big deal this time?" ”

Concubine Shu looked at the emperor and pouted: "Just him?" What else can you achieve by thinking about eating, drinking, and having fun all day long? ”

Emperor Tai'an looked at her: "Then are you worried about what will happen to him?" ”

Concubine Shu stretched out her hand and put it on the emperor's chest: "A son of this age, I am naturally worried that he will be jealous of others outside. ”

The emperor squeezed her hand and put it in his palm: "Why do I think you are so angry with Chen'er." Knowing that he doesn't learn well, this person is in the capital, and you, the queen mother, should teach him well. ”

Concubine Shu stretched out her other hand and poked Emperor Tai'an's stomach with her fingertips:

"When he was young, he was playful and didn't like to study, and his concubines were punished, and he was disciplined, and he looked forward to him growing up quickly and being sensible every day.

finally waited until he was fourteen years old, and finally sensible and filial piety, so he went to the fiefdom. ”

Tears rolled out of his eyes as he spoke: "I can't teach if I want to, let him be like this." ”

Emperor Tai'an brushed her sideburns: "Are you blaming me for letting him leave Beijing early?" ”

Concubine Shu raised her head, and the tip of her nose turned red: "The emperor also acts according to the ancestral system, and the concubine knows that you are reluctant." The concubine just blamed herself, she was too young when she was born, and she was not sensible, so she didn't teach him well, and she would only blame him. ”

The emperor took her hand: "Then while he hasn't returned to the fiefdom yet, you announce him to enter the palace to discipline him well." ”

Concubine Shu sighed: "My son is not young, it's time to discipline my daughter-in-law." I came here today to ask the emperor to point out a daughter-in-law to Chen'er, start a family earlier, and accept my heart earlier. Someone is watching, someone is taking care of me, and I, who is a concubine, am more at ease in the capital. ”

Emperor Tai'an let go of his hand and sat on the dragon chair: "Which family's daughter does Concubine Shu fall in love with?" ”

"The youngest daughter of the Tobe Langzhong family, where is my fancy, it is Chen'er herself! There is really no rule, a few days ago he went to the outskirts of the city to walk his horse, and he startled the carriage of the girl's house......"

"What did he fancie? So who do you have your eye on? The Emperor bowed his head and took a sip of tea.

Concubine Shu walked over and grabbed the emperor's arm with both hands: "The concubine is such a son, he can be a happy idle prince for the rest of his life, and marry a princess who likes it, and the concubine feels very comforted." As he spoke, his eyes were red again.

The emperor patted the back of her hand: "I remember this, you go first, let the palace people spread the word, let him stay in the palace to accompany you for lunch today." ”

Concubine Shu pressed the corner of her eyes with a silk handkerchief: "Your Majesty, you are so good to your concubines." The concubine retired first, and the emperor, you must pay attention to your body when you are busy with state affairs. I'll make some soup for lunch, and let Grandpa Yao bring it to you. ”

"Okay, let's go." The Emperor nodded.

Concubine Shu turned around and walked out of the imperial study. I took a breath, and there was a trace of sentimentality in my eyes.
