Chapter 262: The awkward little emperor

Because of this, Prime Minister Liu's family is now grateful to Zhu Yonghong.

Although I know that the career of future generations of my family has been ruined, it is better than destroying my family. At first, they thought it was Zhu Linjiang's reason, but if they knew that it was not Zhu Linjiang's reason, and Zhu Linjiang also committed the crime of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, they didn't know how their family would treat the Liu family.

"Sister Xiuyun, you are Zhu Linjiang's wife, and I know more or less that he has done a lot of things that he shouldn't do. To put it mildly, it is enough to kill all three of your family. Wang Jibao said seriously.

"This, I don't know what the courtiers have done specifically, but it must be something that is not good for the prince and the king of Shaojun." When Liu heard Wang Jibao say this, he was a little flustered.

It can't be that you're here to ask her about it, right? So what about her Wang'er? It's not a pity for her to die, but let Wang'er follow them on the road at a young age, she is reluctant to be a mother!

It has been a long time since the Liu family has seen Zhu Linjiang come back. She knew that something must have happened to Zhu Linjiang. Therefore, she is very calm about her father-in-law asking people to put her and Wang'er under house arrest.

In the depths of her heart, the Liu family still hopes that Zhu Linjiang is Zhu Yonghong's own flesh and blood, in that case, she and Wang'er can escape.

But the longer she waited, the more panicked she became.

Wang Jibao soothed: "Sister Xiuyun, you don't have to panic, I didn't come to ask the teacher this time." I'm here to talk to you about something else. Although it is not convenient to tell you some things now, I don't know exactly what is going on. But as for your own future, I want you to have a plan. ”

Liu smiled bitterly and said, "The future of the courtiers? Does the courtiers have a future? ”

"Yes, of course." Seeing Liu looking at her with an expectant expression, Wang Jibao continued: "It's best for you to make peace with Zhu Linjiang now. Kid, I'll find a way to get him to follow you. ”

"Really?" Liu couldn't believe it and looked at Wang Jibao in surprise.

Wang Jibao nodded and said, "Really, I like that kid like Wang'er too." ”

"That's great." Liu Xiuyun almost cried with joy. As long as Wang'er is okay.

"But have you thought about it later?" Wang Jibao asked.

Liu smiled and said, "As long as Wang'er is fine." In the future, the courtiers will find a dowry Zhuangzi by themselves, and they will guard him to live. ”

"Then all the glory and status you had before were gone. Wang'er's future is similar to an ordinary humble concubine, will you be willing to do this? "For a person who has been looked up to since childhood, it is difficult to adapt to the sudden loss of that aura. Especially if she is a divorced woman, it will be even more difficult.

Liu smiled bitterly again and said, "Then what else?" This is already the best result for the courtiers, mothers and sons. ”

"If, I let you become a female official in my Zhan Mansion today and help me take care of the harem together, would you be willing?" Wang Jibao sincerely invited: "At present, in Shaoguo, the first person I can think of is you, I don't know if you are willing?" ”

Liu hesitated for a moment and said, "Courtier, is it okay for courtiers?" That's quite tempting. If she can become a member of the regent's princess Zhan Shifu, then she will be a person of the same rank as the court official.

Such a good thing fell on her head, which she could never have imagined before. Moreover, in this way, there will be a certain amount of protection for yourself and Wang'er in the future.

"I haven't tried, how do you know if you can do it?" Wang Xibao paused and continued: "Moreover, it is unknown whether you can meet my requirements. If you don't do well, I'll still remove you. Wang Jibao decided to put the ugly words first: "I will give you a one-year probationary period, if you don't do well, I will not appoint you as an official again, you must remember this." ”

Hearing Wang Jibao say this, it aroused Liu's fighting spirit.

Before she got married, she was also one of the most talented women in Shaojing, but she always regretted that she didn't give women a chance to get ahead. Now that the opportunity is in front of her eyes, how can she miss it?

So, Liu immediately stood up and walked to the middle of the hall, and bowed down to Wang Jibao seriously: "The minister is willing to serve as the female official of the regent's eldest princess Zhan Shifu, and the minister must do his best to serve the eldest princess." ”

"Okay, this princess really didn't mistake Sister Xiuyun." Wang Jibao smiled and stepped forward to help Liu.

If Liu flinched slightly, Wang Jibao might also reassess this person's ability. Listening to her say this now, you know that this person must have been a person with great ambitions when he was young.

Wang Jibao wants to give such ambitious and capable women a chance to prove themselves to the world.

Subsequently, on the one hand, Wang Xibao asked someone to help Liu Xiuyun and Zhu Linjiang deal with the specific matters of reconciliation and departure, and on the other hand, she led the first female official of Zhan Shifu, Mama Lanxiang, to take office.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she arrived in the harem, there was a big trouble waiting for her to solve.

"Eldest princess, go and help take a look. This long live lord locked himself in the dormitory and didn't eat or drink, didn't he take the life of the old slave? "The person who spoke was the chief eunuch before Emperor Shaowen, Chief Wu.

Now his identity remains the same, and he is still the chief eunuch in the palace.

Wang Jibao nodded, "Well, take this princess to take a look first." "That's a lot of fun.

"Yes, the old slave will take you there."

The successive emperors of Shao State lived in the Shaoqian Palace, and now Emperor Shaowen is being suspended there. Xu Zhenhua was arranged in the Shaoming Palace, which was not far from there and was still well preserved after the palace change.

When Wang Jibao arrived at the gate of the main hall of Shaoming Palace, he saw rows of palace maids and eunuchs kneeling on the main hall. As soon as these people saw Wang Jibao's arrival, they immediately saluted her and said, "See the princess regent!" ”

Wang Jibao did not tell these people to get up, but strode towards Xu Zhenhua's bedroom.

At the door of the dormitory, I also saw several eunuchs and palace maids kneeling outside and knocking on the door and shouting: "Your Majesty, open the door quickly, you have locked yourself in the house early in the morning, how can you do this without eating or drinking?" Open the door. ”

"Your Majesty, slaves and maids, please open the door quickly."

After they saw Wang Xibao salute, they hurriedly made way for her.

"It's always been like this?" Wang Jibao asked Chief Manager Wu.

Manager Wu hurriedly replied, "No, it started this morning. Originally, the old slave wanted to wait for the emperor to get up. But the emperor not only didn't get up and didn't say anything, but also drove out the old slaves. And he closed the door from the inside. He also has to blackmail a few old slaves, and if we break in rashly, he will die for us to see. ”

"Chief Manager Wu, has the regent and the king of Shao been notified of this construction?"

Zhu Linxi has been named King Shao. Wang Jibao still has an identity now, which is Princess Shao.

It can be said that now the entire Shao Kingdom is almost the world of their family.

"The old slave has already called someone to inform the regent Chitose and King Shao. The regent Chitose said that the emperor should calm down for a while, and then wait for them to finish handling the government affairs. ”

Indeed, Zhu Yonghong's side really doesn't have much time to pay attention to the awkward little emperor now. It's really that they received an urgent report of 800 miles today. Dingguo had already launched an attack on Longkou Pass, the only border between the two countries.

This was expected by their father and son, and they also sent additional soldiers and horses. But this time, Dingguo was menacing, and he also instigated some surrounding barbarian tribes to besiege Shaoguo with them. At this time, the situation at Longkou Pass is very critical.

At the moment of the great enemy, where will their father and son find time to deal with the affairs of the little emperor. They summoned a group of ministers to discuss the council in the regent's palace.

And in this regard, Wang Jibao thinks that it is better to deal with a child's affairs or let her go. Especially with her years of experience in educating Wang Xu and Wang Brown, it is estimated that she will be more comfortable handling this matter than the father and son.

"Come on, smash this door open for Princess Ben." Wang Jibao commanded lightly.

Isn't it just a door? How could they stop her?

"Yes." The question is with what? Manager Wu hesitated.

Mama Lan Xiang reminded: "Take the latch used for the bolt door of the palace door and try it." ”

"Yes, yes, yes," Manager Wu hurriedly ordered someone to do it.

Wang Jibao raised his voice and said, "Your Majesty, I am your sister-in-law." We met and spent three days together. Now you open the door and let me in, and we can have a good talk. If you have anything you can't think of, I guess I'm the only one who can help you solve it at the moment. If you don't open the door now, that's okay, I've already called someone to prepare something to break in. At that point, I wasn't so good at talking. ”

Wang Xibao waited for a long time and didn't see a reply from inside. At this time, four eunuchs came with the latches of the gate.

Wang Jibao warned Xu Zhenhua inside again: "Your Majesty, if you don't open the door again, I will ask someone to knock on the door." ”

Just when Wang Jibao thought that Xu Zhenhua would resist stubbornly for a while, there was a "squeak", Xu Zhenhua opened the door of the dormitory wearing bright yellow obscene clothes and pants, and stood at the door.

Xu Zhenhua is even thinner than when he was with Wang Jibao a few days ago, and bruises can still be seen under his eyes. Obviously, the kid hasn't eaten well these days, and he hasn't slept well.

Wang Jibao ordered to Chief Wu and the others; "Stand down, all of you. This princess chatted with the emperor for a while. ”

"Yes." Manager Wu hurriedly led people down.

The beautiful scenery and bright sun are guarded by the door, so that no one can come to disturb and eavesdrop.

Wang Jibao gestured to Xu Zhenhua and said, "Let's go, let's go inside and have a good chat." ”

Wang Jibao sat on the lower seat and gave up the main seat to Xu Zhenhua.

Xu Zhenhua looked at Wang Jibao several times with trepidation, and then sat on the main seat.
