Chapter 72: Everyone's Hearts
in the Forbidden City.
Early in the morning, the princes and Prince Baylor, who went to the Fengxian Hall to worship their ancestors, can finally rest, they have entered the palace since the beginning of the year to "celebrate the New Year", and after participating in various activities, they can finally go back to their mother's palace to rest, and then they can go back to the house.
"Fourth brother, I'll go back to your house with you for the New Year!" Thirteen caught up with the fourth master in front of him and said towards him.
"You don't have a home to go back, what are you going to do in my house?" The fourth master glanced at the thirteenth and said.
"It's very annoying in my house, Zhao Jia's forever nonsense look, I really don't want to pay attention to her. I don't have any maternal family, and no one will go to the lintel of my bald brother. So I want to go to the Fourth Brother's Mansion to join in the fun! ”
The fourth master glanced at Thirteen, but there was no smile on his face, if it was a weekday, I was afraid that he would have agreed a long time ago.
"What's the matter, Fourth Brother?" Thirteen also saw the look on the fourth master's face, and realized that he must have something in his heart at this moment.
"I thought that this year, I could add two heirs to my back house, but I didn't expect that just a few days after entering the palace, I heard that the Su family had a miscarriage." The fourth master said.
Mama Tan sent someone to deliver a message to the fourth master, and briefly handed the matter of Su's miscarriage to the fourth master. After all, it is the loss of the heir, it is not a trivial matter, and Mama Tan does not dare to hide it.
Thirteen said in surprise: "This is good, how can it not be?" ”
"I'm afraid that someone will do it again. So if you go, I won't have the leisure to drink with you. The fourth master said.
"I don't want the fourth brother to accompany me, as long as the fourth brother allows Thirteen to stay for a few days. Fourth brother? Thirteen still refused to go home.
"Let's go to the palace of the concubine first. When you leave the palace, you will come with me. The fourth master said.
The two accompanied each other all the way to Yonghe Palace, and Thirteen had also been raised in Yonghe Palace for a few years before, so he also went to Yonghe Palace on weekdays.
At this moment, in the palace, the crown princess and the crown prince are also discussing things.
"Huang Ama wants to go down to Jiangnan?" The crown princess couldn't help but guess, "That's why I asked His Royal Highness to go to Jianghuai to inspect Shuiqing first, and then inspect Jiangnan?" ”
"Huang Ama's big trouble now is Geerdan, how could he be in the mood to go down to Jiangnan at this time." The corners of the prince's mouth hooked up with a hint of mockery.
The crown princess Shi has always been disliked by him, and one of the important reasons is that her mind is too simple.
"Then how can His Highness tell the fourth brother that the emperor Ama asked you to inspect the water situation." The crown princess said in hindsight.
"The fourth child has always been liked by the emperor, if he knows too much, he is afraid that his heart will be big. Anyway, Huang Ama didn't tell him that he was going to Jiangnan, so there was no need to tell him. The prince said.
Only then did the princess understand the prince's intentions, and it turned out that she was guarding against the fourth child.
"This time, Huang Ama suddenly asked the fourth child to follow Gu, but Gu had to look at this brother again." Prince Road.
"From the perspective of the concubine, the fourth brother has always respected His Royal Highness, unlike the eldest and third brother, who come out from time to time to compete with His Highness." The crown princess said.
"Hmph, people's hearts are unpredictable. Some things don't look like that on the inside. Besides, people change. Lone used to have a good relationship with the boss, and they often played together when they were children, but now? There is also the third child, who can also please the emperor with a few lines of poetry, and he actually wants to fight with Lonely! It's really self-defeating. The prince said.
"Your Highness is angry, no matter how they are, they can't surpass you, the prince, and the emperor is the one who loves the prince the most." The crown princess hurriedly said.
Only then did the prince's face recover a little and said: "That's natural, Lone's Eniang is the queen of Huang Ama." Lone was raised by Huang Ama himself since he was a child. Therefore, Lone must not be left behind. ”
"His Royal Highness is both martial and martial, smart and steady, and Huang Ama has praised His Highness in public more than once." The crown princess said again.
The prince's face softened more and more, and the only thing he was satisfied with about Shi was her suppleness. Although she is not smart enough, and her appearance is not a first-class beauty, she is dedicated to following herself, coupled with the power of the Shi family, so this princess is still qualified.
"The Lin family and the Cheng family are going with Gu this time, and the princess has to watch Gu in the palace." The prince raised his hand and touched the back of Shi's hand.
"Your Highness, please rest assured, the concubine is provincial. Your Highness has gone all the way, but you have to take care of your health. The crown princess said softly and shyly. Despite this, the crown princess was very sour in her heart, and she guarded the prince in the palace, but let other young and beautiful women follow her to serve by the prince's side.
Over there, in the Zhongcui Palace, the King of Zhijun and Da Fujin were talking with Concubine Hui.
"King Zhijun, you have never had a son, and your emperor Ama has always been sullen about this matter. Ilgen, don't think that Eniang's words are directly ugly, you gave birth to two daughters with him, and none of the concubines gave birth to an elder brother. That's it, so it's hard for my mother to raise my head in this palace. Hui Fei Nala said.
Ilgen lowered his head and didn't dare to reply, she had a deep relationship with the king of Zhijun, and the relationship had always been very good, so the king of Zhijun did not have many concubines, and he was not favored. Concubine Hui said this clearly, but she was actually blaming the Ilgen clan.
"E-niang, my son will have it, don't worry." The king of Zhijun immediately came out to protect his wife.
"Okay, okay, Hongu knows that you will come out and speak. Hongu can't say a few words! Go back, since you don't listen to this palace, this palace is too lazy to see you. Concubine Hui said angrily.
"E-Niang reprimanded her, she is all concubines, don't be angry with the prince." Ilgen looked up with tears in his eyes. Every year when she entered the palace, she had to endure her mother-in-law's slightly reproachful reprimands and eyes, who let her give birth to two daughters in a row!
"Since you know that you are wrong, then you should take care of your man. There are three unfilial pieties, and no queen is great. Keep this sentence in mind, and when you have the opportunity, you will be assigned a few young people to serve in the past. As the main room, you should have a greater bearing, don't keep bullying men and not letting go, no matter how many other women there are, they are all concubines, and it is impossible to cross you. Even if they give birth to an elder brother, it is also your child, and they will call you a mother-in-law. Concubine Hui said bitterly.
"Yes, the concubine has written it down." Ilgen's tract.
King Zhijun had no choice but to watch Da Fu Jin eat at Concubine Hui's place, but in fact, it was not that the Ilgen clan would not let him go to the concubine's room, but that he himself was unwilling to go.
But the mother-in-law is always a mother-in-law, and she has no son, so she always blames her daughter-in-law. The daughter-in-law of this heavenly family has to tolerate her husband's three wives and four concubines, or even more concubines, to reproduce heirs for the royal family.
