Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Zongren Mansion is Moji
Here Le Zhengyu urgently recalled five apprentices, and Fan Li entered and exited the palace in a bright and bright manner on the grounds of asking for advice from the master.
Since Le Zhengyu decided to perform a craniotomy on the stupid son of the Wang Po family, there is only one thing left to do, that is, to study the marching route of Jimo this time.
It was night, Le Zhengyu stared at a few marked places on the map, there are mountains, rivers, if you want to live, it can be regarded as a treasure of feng shui, but if it is a war... Trapped inside, the people outside can't get in, and the people inside can't get out, but it's really difficult to get out.
"Purple, purple..."
Hearing the princess's shout, the purple clothes who were napping under the corridor hurriedly ran in, "What's the matter, princess, what's wrong?" ”
Le Zhengyu couldn't care about the sleepiness of Ziyi stretching out his hand to rub his eyes, and said, "Ziyi, hasn't the prince sent a letter recently?" ”
Ziyi thought for a moment, "No, the prince has a letter to his family every half a month, it's been more than half a month, princess, won't anything happen?" ”
Ziyi looked at Le Zhengyu and suddenly became nervous.
"It's okay, go to sleep! Stop guarding outside, go sleep inside! It was fine at night. Le Zhengyu looked at Ziyi and said.
The night fell into tranquility again, and the war on the frontier finally stopped for a while, and on the city tower, Jimo looked at the burned earth, and the wind in the night rolled up his robe, quietly slashing his feet, and did not intend to disturb the man in front of him.
Jimo is the god of war of Jimo, as long as he is still there, the soldiers who fight will regard death as home, will not give up, will not lose confidence, he is a god-like existence, and his prestige in the army is extremely high.
But now, a hint of sarcasm appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he muttered, "Father, do you really want to be like this? ”
They tried their best, but they could only last for half a month, and the delay in the assistance made the Jimo army only rely on the personality cult of the prince to maintain.
In the palace, after a month, the queen finally went to visit the second prince who was locked up once under the prays of the concubines and concubines in the palace.
In the Zongren Mansion, the big palace is magnificent, and the queen walks into the palace accompanied by Hongyu and Yan'er, there is no usual scolding of the second prince, and there is no busy work of the chamberlains walking around, everything is quiet, quiet and unbelievable.
"Your Highness, the Queen Mother has come to see you..."Yan'er cautiously shouted inward.
The empty hall was echoed only by the sound of walking under their feet, the burning and dancing red candles, and the echoes of swallows.
As she was walking inward, a bottle rolled at the Queen's feet, and the Queen followed the bottle in the direction of the corner.
The originally glamorous second prince had already become unkempt, and his clothes were sloppy and casually tied, and his loose hair only revealed bloodshot eyes.
The half-closed and half-open eyes are blurry and loose, the narrow eyes, and the tall nose make people know at a glance that it is the lips of a thin man, with the same long figure as Jimo, and the corners of the mouth with a little ruffian when he smiles, and the whole person is a kind of coldness in his bones.
"The Emperor's Mother... You've come to see Erchen? Hehe... Erchen feels like he hasn't seen the emperor for a long time, it's been a long time, it's like a hundred years! The hoarse and ugly voice of the second prince sounded low.
The queen waved her hand at Yan'er and Hongyu, and the two maids withdrew from the hall and closed the door of the main hall, leaving only a broken and mottled reflection, which was the light leakage from the broken window paper of the Zongren Mansion for many years due to no one repairing it.
"You're blaming me?" The queen walked up to Jimo Ji and looked condescendingly at the muddy man on the ground.
The second prince laughed out loud, looking at the queen's neat and beautiful embroidered palace shoes, he said: "Huang Eniang, now you don't want to admit that I am your son, right?"
At the beginning, I couldn't figure out how I was the prince and the eldest son of the queen, why the queen didn't look at me except for urging me to do my homework every day and urging me to have a good relationship with my father, which is different from the mother of the ninth brother.
I thought I wasn't working hard enough, so I secretly decided that I would learn what my husband taught, and every compliment from my husband would be known to the emperor through Sister Hongyu.
But unlike what I imagined, Huang Eniang still didn't like to take care of me, so I began to indulge, I thought that another way could attract the attention of Huang Eniang, I was nine years old, and my fifth brother was six years old. ”
The corners of Ji Moji's mouth curled slightly, falling into a memory, and continued to speak.
"The fifth brother is really good, he is better than me in everything, better than the prince's brother, and he is the most outstanding one in the palace, so I began to spread some rumors about his mother's concubine, I said that he was the scourge of Jimo.
He ignored me, but chose to lead the troops to the battlefield a few years later, so it was more than ten years, the fifth brother actually had no enmity with me, and I didn't hate him, and then he married the fool in the general's mansion as a princess, and I was not worth it for him.
What a wonderful person the fifth brother is! In order to let the emperor pay attention to me, give me a little more care, look at me more, even if it is a word of encouragement, but I was wrong, this is not the fault of the emperor, it is my fault.
It's my wishful thinking, I thought that if I called Eniang, it was really Eniang, not my own child, how could I cherish it sincerely. ”
The second prince babbled about falling three to four, and the sad smile kept hanging on his face, and this month's decadence and discouragement made him understand something.
The queen also smiled bitterly on her face, at this moment she was like her own mother, squatting down and looking at Jimo Ji, but Jimo Ji did not look directly at her.
"How do you know this?" The dry throat could only spit out these few words, and the queen looked at the second prince fixedly, not moving.
"Huang Eniang, do you think that Erchen is really a fool who does not rely on his brains and only relies on bluffing? Why haven't you ever thought about why there are so many ministers in the court who are willing to support Erchen, and even idle people like Qin Tiansi are willing to support Erchen? ”
Without waiting for the queen to speak, the second prince continued: "That's because the sons have their own ability to deal with government affairs, and they have the ability to be on par with the fifth brother. ”
The second prince continued to say one after another, as if he was afraid that he would never have a chance again, telling about his short life.
"Huang Eniang, the retainers have touched you a lot! If it weren't for your adoption of me, I don't know if I would have survived until now, and I wouldn't have had the opportunity to enjoy all that glory and wealth, let alone have the opportunity to say this to you here.
Huang Eniang, do you know what is the wish of the son in this life? Hehe... It is to be an ordinary and wealthy teacher, marry a simple and clean lady, and give birth to a few lovely children, that day must be very good! ”
