Gift-giving is never a one-person thing, and only when the person you're giving a gift to gives feedback, whether it's positive or negative, can the matter really have a head and an end.

So many people gave gifts to Lord Lu before, it wasn't a gift, it was just a group of stupid guys with a lot of money throwing things into the bottomless pit.

But this time, the exchanges between Lord Lu and the four princes shocked the adults in Beijing.

On the one hand, they never expected that His Royal Highness the simple-minded Fourth Prince would really be able to impress Lord Lu, who was not in the oil and salt.

On the other hand, it was the adults who were shocked that Lu Hanjiang was blatantly suspected of "taking sides", although after seeing the object he chose, most of them thought that this was a strategy to lead the water to the east.

It's just that if it's really the 1 in 10,000 possibility, it will really catch everyone off guard.

However, some of the people were shocked, some did not believe it, and some maliciously speculated, but there was one person who really broke the defense, and that was His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince.

When he first heard that Lu Hanjiang let Wen Jinzhi go because of the face of the four princes, he also thought that this was deliberately done by the other party, just to disturb the water in the capital, but the first time it was like this, so what about the second time?

The Sixth Prince does not have the calm Qi cultivation kung fu of the elders in Beijing, in fact, sitting in his position, it is really difficult to calm down and judge anything.

As the penultimate among the princes, his father does not pay attention to it, his mother is not prominent, and his many years of hard work are just a generous reputation of a courteous corporal in Beijing, and other than that, he has nothing.

In the case that the other brothers did not make a mistake, the sixth prince was almost insulated from that position, so when the fourth prince and the seventh prince pinched each other, he was the happiest person.

But now, the four princes not only have signs of bottoming out, but what is even more hateful is that he specially sent this great opportunity to the door, how can he not be angry.

So after smashing a pile of porcelain, the six princes immediately called their staff and began to urgently negotiate countermeasures.

This is a very stupid chess move, when a big incident occurs in Beijing, it is often the time when the eyeliner of each prefecture moves most frequently, and the actions of His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince are tantamount to sending his suspicion to everyone clearly.

In a sense, this time the six princes did let the adults see themselves in the corner, and they showed their faces very much, but unfortunately it was not the kind of face he hoped for.

And after seeing the figure of the six princes from the report of Jin Yiwei, Lu Hanjiang was also very speechless, he thought that who would pick up the four princes to play the striker, he wanted to catch a big fish, but now he is really disappointed.

And just when the situation in Beijing was changing, a not small thing happened in the palace.

On this day, Princess Yongle, accompanied by the palace people, was admiring the flowers in Concubine Meng's palace, and suddenly saw a large group of people coming in front of her in the distance.

When the other party got closer, Yongle saw clearly that it was Concubine Zhao, that is, the mother of the fourth prince.

"I've seen Concubine Zhao." Yongle took the lead in saluting with the support of the palace people.

"The princess is well." Concubine Zhao smiled and returned the gift, she was born brightly, even if she was old, she was still extravagant, and her brilliance was not lost in the past.

It is also wonderful to say, although the four princes are well-known rectums among the princes, but Concubine Zhao has a nine-trick exquisite heart, as early as when she did not enter the palace, her talent and intelligence have been famous in Beijing.

It is really hard to believe that such a smart mother gave birth to such a simple and simple son, so for many years, there have been many people who suspect that the fourth prince pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger.

"How's your body?" Concubine Zhao asked kindly holding Yongle's hand.

Yongle replied obediently: "Thank you Concubine Zhao for your care, the imperial doctor just diagnosed the pulse in the morning, and said that the fetus is stable, so don't worry." ”

"That's good," Concubine Zhao patted Yongle's hand lightly, and said softly: "The princess is the first child, you must not be careless, give birth to a concubine early, this is good for you and Lord Lu, the princess, and when you go back to the palace, you will let people send some food to raise the fetus." ”

"Thank you, Concubine Zhao." Yongle smiled, his eyes bent into willow leaves, very rare.

Concubine Zhao smiled, and then asked, "Sister Guifei is here?" ”

"The concubine is in the palace." Yongle replied.

"Well," Concubine Zhao nodded, and then said, "Princess, rest, this palace will go to find Sister Guifei." ”

As she spoke, Concubine Zhao took people into the palace of the concubine, and at this moment Concubine Meng was talking to Ah Xiu, and the focus of the discussion naturally revolved around Yongle.

Concubine Zhao came uninvited, which surprised the two of them, A Xiu's eyes flashed a little surprised, but she immediately got up and retreated behind Meng Guifei.

"My sister looks really good today." Concubine Zhao smiled and saluted.

"Sister, get up."

Meng Guifei raised her hand to signal the other party to get up, and at the same time asked the other party to sit down, and when the palace person brought tea, she asked curiously: "What is the matter with my sister's visit today?" ”

"It's true that there is something to trouble my sister," Concubine Zhao tasted the tea, and then sighed: "I'm here for the fourth child." ”

"Fourth Highness?"

Meng Guifei turned her head and glanced at Ah Xiu in surprise, the latter frowned and was speechless, so she asked, "Could it be that something happened to His Royal Highness?" ”

"Not yet, but if it goes on like this, I'm afraid it's going to be soon."

Concubine Zhao's tone was a little tired, she raised her forehead and sighed: "This kid has never been clear, he has Lingyun ambition in his heart, but he always doesn't understand what he should pay for this, he is stupid with a long body and no head, I am really worried about him." ”

Meng Guifei said with a smile: "It's not a bad thing for His Royal Highness to be honest, he has a pure heart, even if he does something wrong, His Majesty won't be serious with him if he wants to come."

"Ahem." Ah Xiu coughed lightly, stretched out her hand and poked at Meng Guifei's back, signaling the other party to stop talking.

When people say that their son is stupid, that's self-humility, and if you echo it here, it's quite faceless.

Sure enough, Concubine Zhao's face immediately became a little strange, but she didn't care about anything, she had been in the palace together for many years, and she also understood that Concubine Meng had always been so straightforward, and she was not much better than her stupid son.

"The attraction of that position is certainly overwhelming, but I also know that the fourth child is hopeless."

Concubine Zhao sorted out her expression and said seriously: "So I came to beg my sister today, I hope that my sister will raise her noble hand and give him a way to go." ”

Meng Guifei was surprised: "My sister is right."

Ah Xiu tasted the meaning of the other party's words, and she said softly: "Concubine Zhao's intentions, could it be that there is something involved between His Royal Highness and Jinyiwei?" ”

Concubine Zhao nodded at Ah Xiu: "Ah Xiu girl is an understanding person, the fourth child is really not enough for Lord Lu to stew a spoonful, so I have to go this trip for him, today's invitation, it is considered that I owe you a favor from the Chen family in the clouds." ”
