Chapter 1000: King An (4)
"Concubine Duan, I'm afraid it will be difficult to sleep tonight."
The night is as cool as water, and the moon is full of sky.
In the bedroom of Jiaofang Palace, Xie Mingxi's slightly mocking whisper came: "You don't want King An to be idle and have fun, entrust him with important responsibilities, and intend to cultivate him." However, with your kindness, Concubine Duan has no blessings, and she just thinks that you are deliberately trying to deal with King An. ”
Sheng Hong raised his eyebrows and looked thoughtful: "I have never done anything evil since I ascended the throne. is also extraordinarily indulgent and generous to his only brother.。 Why does Concubine Duan have such a misunderstanding about me? ”
Without waiting for Xie Mingxi to respond, he sighed again: "The ancient sages were all lonely. There is some truth to this statement. In this world, you are the only one who truly understands my noble character. ”
Xie Mingxi glanced at his self-boasting husband, and twisted his cheekiness with a smile.
Sheng Hong smiled and leaned over the other side of his face, biting her fingertips by the way.
The husband and wife frolicked and made love for a moment before continuing the topic.
"King An is a rare smart man."
Xie Mingxi's eyes flashed slightly, and he said in a low voice: "In the past few years, he has never shown his face, and he has been low-key and forbearant everywhere. intends to turn himself into a person who only knows how to eat, drink, and have fun, and is idle and has no ambitions. ”
"He's afraid that he'll show his edge and attract your taboo. It is also a measure of self-preservation. ”
Sheng Hong restrained his smile and sighed lightly: "In order to compete for the throne, King Ning and the others rebelled and killed each other. Otherwise, this throne would not have fallen to me. ”
"Before I ascended the throne, Empress Dowager Yu intended to use King An as a raft to make things difficult for me. At that time, King An was a little slippery head, pretending to be faint and dodging. ”
"It's seven years since he pretended."
Over the years, Sheng Hong has always looked at King An's words and deeds.
King An really has no ambition for the throne, and he has made up his mind to be a rich vassal king.
Because of this, Sheng Hong couldn't bear to see King An so decadent and fun at a young age. made up his mind to "mention" King An once.
Sheng Hong will move the events in the temple today: "...... King An has answered me today, saying that he will do his best to do his best. I didn't expect much from him, anyway, it's better to do something than to be idle all day. ”
Xie Mingxi smiled casually: "This may not be. Perhaps, King An will give you an unexpected surprise. ”
Sheng Hong smiled: "Then I'll wait and see." ”
……
The next day, King An went to the Zongren Mansion to report.
The highest official position in the Zongren Mansion is Zongzheng, followed by the left sect and the right sect. The county king of Ren Zuozongren was sick and vacant, and when King An came, he just filled the vacancy.
It has been more than 100 years since the founding of the ancestors. After several generations of reproduction, there are nearly 1,000 royal relatives who have not produced five suits. More out of the five suits. There are thousands of people in total. Every day, big and small things continue, and the king of Fenyang County, Zongzheng, is so busy that he can't wait to have two more hands.
As soon as King An came, the king of Fenyang unceremoniously divided the miscellaneous matters into two percent.
King An, who is used to being lazy, took over the affairs of the Zongren Mansion at first glance, but someone mentioned it from time to time, but he was still busy with his hands.
In less than half a month, I lost a lot of weight.
In the past half a month, two more vassal kings have returned to Beijing. The rest of the vassal kings also set off one after another, on the way back to Beijing. Most of the vassal kings had prosperous children and grandchildren, even if they were not as large as King Chenliu, the total number was very large. It is by no means an easy task to resettle so many people.
The affairs of the placement of the vassal king are all under the control of the clan government.
It can be imagined how busy the king of Fenyang is.
The king of Fenyang County is busy, and King An can't stop. I leave the house every day before dawn, and don't think about going back to the house when I don't have a child.
Princess An felt sorry for her husband and carefully prepared tonic ginseng soup for King An every day. King An is young and energetic, and he can't afford to "nourish", and once he had a nosebleed in front of people, which became the latest joke in the capital for a while.
The concubine in the middle of the palace naturally heard about it, and she was so distressed that she burst into tears.
In the past, King An entered the palace every three or five days to ask for peace. Now I can't get busy with business, I go out early and return late every day, where is there still time to enter the palace. She hadn't seen her son for almost half a month.
Concubine Duan didn't dare to go to the Jiaofang Palace, so she simply came to Hanxiang Palace and cried to the soft-hearted Concubine Mei: "...... King An has been lazy since he was a child, his reading is mediocre, and he can't practice martial arts and arrows. I also admit it, as long as he is safe and healthy. ”
"The emperor sent him to the Zongren Mansion on an errand with the intention of promoting him. It's not that I'm not ungrateful in my heart. It's just that he's not the material for doing things. I heard that I have lost a lot of weight in the past half a month. I wanted to see him, and he didn't have time to enter the palace. ”
"In my heart, I can't think about it."
While crying while talking, he also tugged at Concubine Mei's sleeve, and the implication of the words was understood without saying it.
Concubine Mei really relented, and cried with Concubine Duan, but never mentioned interceding for King An.
No matter how pitiful King An is, it can't compare to his son's joy and anger.
Concubine Duan was helpless, so she had to make her words clear, and begged Concubine Mei to say: "Sister Mei, I came today to ask you to intercede for King An in front of the emperor." asked the emperor to withdraw King An's errand. King An has nothing to do, I have long admitted it. Don't let him mess around, it will affect the emperor's reputation. ”
Concubine Mei sighed apologetically: "We are in the harem, how can we understand the affairs of the country." If I go to intercede with the queen, I can try. Your Majesty, I really don't know how to open my mouth. ”
Duan Taifei: "......"
……
The big and small things in the palace can't be hidden from Xie Mingxi.
After Xie Mingxi knew about this, he smiled slightly.
Concubine Mei has a weak temperament and has no opinions. She has one of the biggest benefits, though. It's just that nothing is as important as a son. From this point of view, the position of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is completely identical.
Concubine Duan cries and wipes her tears every day, and it doesn't sound good to spread out.
Xie Mingxi took the initiative to summon Concubine Duan to come, and knocked a few words lightly: "King An is a member of the Zuo Sect of the Zongren Mansion, busy every day, working hard to share worries for the emperor. This is a good thing, and it is also the dignified honor that the emperor gave to King An. ”
"Such a good thing, it's just that Concubine Duan is unhappy, why do you fall in front of people and wipe her tears? Isn't it misleading to think that King An has a grudge against the emperor? Or is the concubine dissatisfied with this matter? ”
Concubine Duan was in a cold sweat when she heard this, and she responded tremblingly: "The queen has misunderstood." I have no resentment, and I am not half dissatisfied. King An can be important to the emperor, I don't know how happy I am in my heart, so I cry with joy. ”
Xie Mingxi sighed meaningfully: "It turned out that I was crying with joy, but it was a misunderstanding in this palace." ”
Concubine Duan laughed again and again.
After that, I didn't dare to go to Hanxiang Palace to disturb Concubine Mei.
