Royal Palace, Imperial Garden.

Mid-Autumn Festival reunion, even the royal family is like the people, spending the festival together.

Fifty years ago, the imperial palace of the Ming Dynasty was the most lively time, and Emperor Gaozu had 59 concubines and more than 140 children.

At the beginning, there were internal supervisors, plus palace maids, and there were tens of thousands of people in a palace.

But Emperor Gaozu lived too long, and as the concubines died one by one, the princes were divided, and the princesses got married, the palace gradually became deserted.

In particular, the internal supervision system was abolished, and the eunuchs were no longer accepted, and with the death of the eunuchs, there were only a few dozen masters left, three thousand palace maids, and hundreds of handymen in the imperial dining room of the internal affairs palace.

Emperor Zhengde had nine concubines, twelve princes, and fifteen princesses.

The eldest prince is twenty-two years old this year, and although he is engaged, he is still in his senior year and will not graduate until next year.

Only the two eldest princesses are married, and they are not here today, and everyone else gathers in the imperial garden, chatting, barbecuing, and admiring the moon.

Zhengde also acted as a good father today, patiently asking each prince about his studies and cultivation progress one by one.

A group of princesses with their young brothers barbecue and set off fireworks on the lawn.

Even the concubines who fight openly and secretly on weekdays have died down today and enjoyed a rare relaxation.

Zhengde saw that although the twelve sons could not be called harmonious, they were also brothers, friends, and brothers, and he was also happy in his heart.

Of course, he also knows very well that the princes do not fight, not because they do not yearn for his position, but because: Prince Ke of the Ming Dynasty!

Emperor Taizu defeated the crown prince Zhu Biao.

Emperor Taizong defeated the crown prince Zhu Gaochi.

When it came to Gaozu, it was even more incredible, not only the crown prince Zhu Qizhen, but even the grandson Zhu Jianshen and the great-grandson Zhu Youjiao were also defeated.

It wasn't until the fifth generation that he inherited the throne.

He is forty years old this year, and he has already achieved the secret of immortality, even if he does not live to be one hundred and fifteen years old of Gao Zu, and to live to be ninety years old, it is still easy to be one hundred years old.

There are still fifty or sixty years to go, and if these children can't cultivate the secret of longevity, they will definitely not be able to survive on their own.

For Zhu Houzhao, who regards Gaozu as an idol and is dedicated to learning from Gaozu, he is less than eighty years old, and he will definitely not consider the matter of the prince.

What's more, before Gaozu's death, the regulations on the succession to the throne had been revised.

The royal family is a virtuous person, and the longevity formula cannot be cultivated to a small success, and it cannot inherit the throne.

Not to mention that these sons of his are compared with Gao Zu, even if they are worse than his qualifications, they are not acceptable, and until now, none of them have cultivated to Xiaocheng.

But he is not in a hurry, Gaozu passed the throne to the fifth generation, he just can't survive Gaozu, he can also pass it on to the fourth generation.

There are still generations of children and grandchildren who can choose from him, and he can always pick out an excellent one.

Acting as a loving father, his eyes were drawn to the two daughters on the waterside trestle.

The third princess Zhu Qi and the fourth princess Zhu Cheng, who have not yet married, stood side by side on the trestle bridge, not knowing what they were talking about.

After a deep sigh, he waved his hand at the queen who came over and walked over.

Zhu Cheng is the fourth princess, but the marriage was arranged in advance, which is not a blow to Zhu Qi.

Since she was a child, she has known that she is not as good as her fourth sister, and she is not as smart and clever as her, and she will please people.

Her mother's family is just a declining official family, and it can't help.

Anyway, she is a princess, she can be clothed and fed in this life, and if she marries in the future, she can live in peace and stability.

But through the Zongzheng Mansion News, she saw that Zhou Bei, who had been awarded the title of Yunshan Bo, was handsome and chic, and his appearance was even more fascinating than the man she fantasized, so she was jealous.

When Zhou Bei set up a laboratory, there was still half of the laboratory's share, which made her feel even more sour.

When her marriage was confirmed, she felt even more unfair in her heart.

Compared with her two sisters, her marriage is not much worse, the other party is the son of Xiaozheng Boshi, or the son of the prince who will not be demoted, not only will she have the title of princess in the future, but her husband can also continue to serve as an earl.

Moreover, the descendants of the Xungui family must stay in Yingtianfu, and she, the princess, does not have to leave the prosperous place of Yingtianfu.

But the other party's appearance is mediocre, compared with Zhou Bei, both in terms of ability and appearance, there is a big difference.

After drinking a few more glasses of chrysanthemum wine today, she couldn't help but pull the fourth sister and say something sour.

Of course, Zhu Cheng knew that the third sister was jealous of herself, but she was much smarter than the third sister and knew how to deal with it.

She mentioned that Zhou Bei originally had a childhood sweetheart, and she was also a female dependant of the clan branch.

Although he will marry Zhou Bei, the royal family will not directly rob the family, and will arrange for two women to marry a man at the same time, and will give the other party the title of Mrs.

Although Zhu Qi's husband is a little worse, he doesn't have to compete with other women for a man, even if the other party takes a concubine in the future, he is far from being comparable to her.

These words made Zhu Qi's mood much better, and he also felt that he was a little embarrassed to eat his sister's vinegar like this.

When Zhengde came over, the two sisters were exchanging experiences on how to gather their husbands and manage the back house in the future, and they were harmonious on the surface.

Seeing Zhengde coming over, the two sisters hurriedly saluted. "Father is well."

Zhengde laughed and said, "What are you talking about?" ”

Zhu Qi was older and replied: "The marriage of my daughter and sister has been settled, and we are communicating with all parties in the future. ”

Zhengde nodded and said, "Even if you get married in the future, don't just focus on the backyard." Daming is very big, there are many affairs, and there is always a time for you to contribute.

When I get married in the future, I will explain to your aunt and grandmother, and arrange a better position for you at the Charity Federation. ”

Zhu Qi was overjoyed when he heard this, and thanked him: "Thank you, father." ”

Zhengde smiled and said: "You are also my daughter, how can I treat it partially." Don't blame your father for not giving you a marriage to Yun Shanbo, he is outstanding, arrogant, and his childhood sweetheart is also a beautiful woman I pity, you can't suppress the other party. ”

Zhu Qi hurriedly said: "Daughter, don't blame, everything is fate." ”

"It's good to think of it that way. Go first, I'll talk to your sister. ”

Zhu Qi retired, Zhengde looked up at the moon in the sky, turned his head and asked, "Have you ever met with Yun Shanbo recently?" ”

Zhu Cheng also glanced up at Mingyue and sighed faintly. "No, I didn't. The marriage was undecided, and the daughter could not take the initiative to come to the door, which ruined the reputation of the royal family. He also can't spy on the royal family, and can only make phone calls once a day. ”

Zhengde nodded and said, "This son-in-law is ...... Daddy is going to decide, you don't have to worry about things changing. Daddy talks to you because he wants you to pay more attention to economic knowledge, not to expect you to make a fortune, but also to know the statistical coordination, and to be a good helper for that kid. ”

"Daddy, don't worry, my daughter knows the severity. There are so many princesses, but there is only one Yun Shanbo. He is cutting through the thorns in front, and his daughter will not hold him back. ”

The daughter is sensible, and Zhengde is very happy. "When you enter the university, I will arrange for you to be Mrs. Wu's assistant. Yun Shanbo's side, you have to overcome the rigid with softness, that kid I have already figured it out, he is a rammer who eats soft and does not eat hard. ”
