In Fuyang Palace, Concubine Shu angrily pointed at the nose of the third prince and scolded: "Don't you know that your father attaches great importance to the death of the first queen?" Have you forgotten that at this time of year we have to copy Buddhist scriptures for the first queen? During the death of the first queen, everyone dared not offend Long Yan, but they dared to ask someone to hunt and kill birds, do you have a brain? ”

The third prince weakly defended himself: "Didn't I get dizzy and forget about this matter? ”

"You can forget such an important thing, have your brains been eaten by dogs?" At this moment, Concubine Shu is not at all elegant and dignified on weekdays, "In a few months, you will go out of the palace to be crowned king, but you hunted birds and birds before the death day of the former queen, do you want to be sent to the frontier by your father and emperor, and you can't return to Beijing for the rest of your life?" ”

The third prince was frightened by Concubine Shu's words, and hurriedly shook his head and said, "Of course Erchen doesn't want to. ”

"Fortunately, the emperor called you to scold you. If someone else runs to the emperor and says you, you won't be scolded. Concubine Shu made a straight face and said sternly, "I have always told you, before you become an adult and become king, you give me honesty, don't do anything out of the ordinary to annoy the emperor, you are good, this year has only started, you almost have a mess, you are like this, how can the emperor give you a good fief." ”

The three princes were disciplined without saying a word.

"You still want Yangzhou, just like you, I'm afraid that even the small place in Qingzhou won't be your turn." Although Concubine Shu was also very annoyed by the death of the first queen, she never dared to show a trace of it.

The second princess brought a cup of hot tea and handed it to Concubine Shu, and smiled sweetly at Concubine Shu: "Mother, you drink tea to dissipate your anger." ”

Concubine Shu stretched out her hand to take the teacup, lowered her head and took a few sips of tea, and the anger in her heart decreased.

"Brother, what did you do to make those birds catch you......"

Before the second princess could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Concubine Shu.

"Don't say such rude things."

"Yes, Princess." The second princess stuck out her tongue, "Brother, what did you do?" ”

The third prince said with a look of grievance: "I didn't do anything." ”

"You didn't do anything, why did those sparrows and crows bully you, you must have done something, angered them, and they took revenge on you." I have to say that the second princess guessed right.

"I'm idle and have nothing to do with the birds." The three princes thought they were unlucky.

The second princess sneered: "That must be what you are wearing too fancy." ”

The three princes like to wear brightly colored clothes, and they dress themselves up like peacocks, which is very eye-catching.

"Brother, you should be more restrained in your clothes in the future."

The third prince glared at the second princess, "What do you know." "He has to be good-looking to be able to wear bright clothes. Ordinary people wear brightly colored clothes, and they can't hold it down.

"I think you want to be bullied again." The second princess said jokingly.

"Are you my sister?"

"Alright." Concubine Shu interrupted the brother and sister's conversation, put down the tea cup in her hand, and solemnly told the third prince, "From tonight onwards, you give me honesty, and you are not allowed to eat meat at night." ”

The third prince obediently replied, "Yes." ”

"During the period of copying the Buddhist scriptures, you will honestly copy the Buddhist scriptures for me, and don't do anything else." Concubine Shu knows what kind of character her son is, and she also knows that he likes to whip people on weekdays, "During the death of the first queen, you should know about those things by the emperor, and you should know what consequences you will have." ”

"Don't worry, I won't do anything else." The third prince has a tyrannical temperament, but he is not a fool.

"The emperor has many sons, but there are many less of you." Concubine Shu knew very well that the third prince did not have any weight in the emperor's heart.

"Mother, what do you mean by that?" What does it mean to be less than him, a lot.

"It means that without your son, there is no loss to the emperor." Concubine Shu said coldly, "However, if you don't have the identity of a prince, you are nothing. ”

The second princess was also frightened by Concubine Shu's words, "Mother, my father won't be so ruthless, right?" ”

Concubine Shu sneered: "If you don't believe it, you can try." ”

The third prince and the second princess: "......" they didn't dare to try.

Concubine Shu glanced at her son and daughter, sighed lightly and said, "I have always told you that in the emperor's heart, the major affairs of the court are the most important, and the concubines and princesses are not so important. ”

She said again: "The emperor is the emperor first, and then your father, understand? ”

The third prince and the second princess understood, and nodded again and again: "Understood." ”

"Okay, it's not too early, you should go back to Xingde Palace." Although the third prince is not yet an adult, he is not too young to stay in the harem for a long time.

"The retainers retired."

Concubine Shu instructed again uneasily: "You give me honesty." ”

"Yes."

Concubine Shu waved her hand and motioned for the third prince to withdraw.

"Mother, if the things my brother did were known to my father, would my father really not want my brother?" The second princess still didn't believe it, "Brother killed eunuchs and palace maids, not ordinary people." ”

"It's no problem for your brother to kill one or two, but there are twenty or thirty eunuchs and palace maids killed by your brother, and if the emperor knows about it, he will definitely be furious." Concubine Shu more or less understood Emperor Wu Zhou's temper, "Even if the emperor will not abolish your brother as a prince, he will also put him in the prison of Zongzheng Temple." ”

"Fortunately, we have been hiding it very well, and my father will not know."

Concubine Shu bowed slightly: "Your brother will leave the palace next year, and if he messes around at that time, he will not be easily discovered." Concubine Shu didn't feel anything wrong with her son's hobby, because in her eyes, the lives of eunuchs and palace maids were not lives.

The mother and daughter didn't talk about the third prince anymore, and talked about the death of the first queen. The concubine asked people to take out plain clothes, and from tomorrow, they could not dress brightly.

In the Kunde Palace, Zhao Yao was writing a letter to his second uncle. In his letter, he told him that Jiangnan would send a big flood in the summer, and asked his second uncle to write a letter to his grandfather to pay attention to it.

After writing the letter, Zhao Yao asked Laifu to send it to Liang Run.

After Liang Run received the letter, he was very surprised, he didn't understand where Zhao Yao got this news. However, what Zhao Yao said was basically right, and he didn't dare not believe it.

"Lord Lingyun, you wait for me, I'll write a letter to Yaoyao." Liang Run knew Ling Yun's identity and didn't dare to be rude to Ling Yun.

Standing on the table, Ling Yun glanced at Liang Run rather arrogantly, and then nodded his head.

Liang Run simply wrote down what had happened during this time, and then carefully tied the letter to Ling Yun's lap.

Ling Yun pecked Liang Run's head hard before flying away.

Every time Liang Run asked Ling Yun to help send a letter back to Zhao Yao, he would be nagged by Ling Yun.

Ling Yun flew back to the Kunde Palace, and Zhao Yao hurriedly took down the letter. Of course, before reading the letter, he rewarded Ling Yun fiercely.

In the letter, Liang Run told Zhao Yao that Dingyuan was much better, and said that he was very studious and read and wrote seriously every day. Uncle Zhang trains the big girls and the little girls very well. In addition, he plans to buy a plot of land in the countryside outside the capital, and then build a house there to adopt those orphans who have no father or mother.

Liang Run said he had his eye on several villages. This place is a bit far from the capital, and the land is very cheap.

Zhao Yao read the letter and handed it to Liang Zhaoyi.

"The second uncle wants to buy land."

After reading it, Liang Zhaoyi nodded and said, "This land can be bought." ”

"Then you'll have to buy something bigger." Zhao Yao hadn't thought of buying land before. Now listening to Liang Run's talk about buying land, he immediately had an idea in his heart, "When the time comes, build a farm and raise some cattle, sheep, chickens, ducks and geese." By the way, I have to buy some fields, so that it looks like a normal Zhuangzi. ”

Liang Zhaoyi said with a smile: "This is a good idea, but I'm afraid that your second uncle's money is not enough to buy land." ”

"Then mother, give some money to your second uncle." Zhao Yao knew that his mother was very rich.

"Let your second uncle go to the money bank to get it." Liang Zhaoyi brought a few boxes of money when she entered Beijing, but she didn't bring all of them into the palace, but left some in the largest money bank in the capital. "I'm afraid it's not so easy for your second uncle to buy land."

"Why?"

"Wasteland and barren mountains are easy to buy, but fields are not easy to buy." Liang Zhaoyi said, "The fields in the village are all recorded, and if you want to buy them, you have to get the consent of the local magistrate." Some county magistrates are honest, but they are very easy to speak. However, some magistrates are not so easy to talk to. ”

Zhao Yao understood: "You have to give money." ”

"Even if you give money and buy land, maybe it will be taken back at any time." Liang Zhaoyi thought for a while and said, "I have to tell your father about buying land and buying land." ”

"What do you tell your father to do?"

"With your father's consent, your second uncle will save a lot of trouble when he buys the land."

"Tell my father, doesn't my father know what my second uncle is doing?" Zhao Yao was reluctant to let Emperor Wu of Zhou know about this.

"Just tell your father that he bought the land to build a village, and your father will not doubt it." Liang Zhaoyi said with a smile, "Do you think that your second uncle can hide from your father by buying land outside the capital?" ”

Zhao Yao asked in surprise: "Can't you hide it?" ”

"Your father has long known that your second uncle is doing business in the capital."

"Huh?" Zhao Yao was shocked.

Emperor Wu of Zhou: There are many sons, and there are nine without one.

Three Princes: ......
