The palace is not allowed to move around without permission, and if there is disobedience, it is a great crime to kill the head.

Especially the harem where the three thousand beauties of the Son of Heaven are located, and the Si Tiantai who observes the celestial phenomena and calculates the solar terms and formulates the calendar, these two are the most important things related to the face of the saint and the imperial court, even some extremely favored mink Jue did not dare to cross half a step without a warrant.

At present, the scene is about to fall into the night, and the palace maids of the Yellow Gate in the inner garden are trotting to refuel the lamps.

Interestingly, today's Emperor Wensheng is also a wonderful person, the harem has some beauties, this son of heaven is impartial, but he is very fond of the queen mother, the lord of the harem, who is above 10,000 people under one person.

It's not because of the identity of the lady in charge of the big and small female officials, it's completely because these two people have been raising their eyebrows for a few years, plus Queen Jiangshan is praised for everything, and it is obvious that she has changed from a virtuous assistant to an indispensable existence.

A young man dressed in a jet-black slim short shirt walked quickly through the harem porch, ignoring the occasional inner prison maid or the patrol guard, and entered the queen's bedroom in an irregular manner.

"The child Wang Jiang has seen his mother."

The fourteenth prince, who is quite popular with the saints today, raised his hand to stop the salute of several palace maids, entered the house and bowed, and peeked at the noble lady of the three thousand concubines and female officials in the harem of the mother ceremony after waving her hand to wave away a group of palace maids and eunuchs, and personally unloaded the dazzling array of jewels.

"Mother, I'll help you." It is the nature of a child to love to be coquettish in front of his mother, and Wang Jiang, who is a prince, is naturally no exception.

In the bronze mirror, the noble woman below the one person and above the ten thousand people has a beautiful and elegant demeanor, her eyebrows and eyes are smiling, and she is amiable, and the gentle action of pinching the white jade gui in the ear with her fingers like shallot roots is also a rare style.

I have to say that today's saint has three thousand beauties but favors this person alone, aside from others, I am afraid that whoever gets this beauty will have no taste for other food.

The current queen mother Jiang Shantou did not reply, raised her hand and slapped down the thief hand who reached forward behind her back to pick up the priceless string of water-rippled blue waves on her neck, and scolded: "Clumsy while watching, accidentally fell to see that your father didn't scold you." ”

Wang Jiang withdrew his hand and smiled, stepped forward and lay on the fragrant sandalwood makeup table with three or four palm-sized grimaces on the desktop alone, and looked sideways at the woman who was carefully removing her makeup, "Mother, don't you think I am." ”

"What do you want you to do with a white-eyed wolf?" The woman didn't look at the little son who loved to splash and roll in front of her when she was a child, unloaded the sets of yellow and white jade, and wiped the gouache on her face with the cotton silk handkerchief, "I didn't even come here when I returned to Beijing. ”

"Mother, you have wronged me." Wang Jiang straightened up unhappily, pouted like a child being wronged, and said with a face full of grievances: "When I come back, I will go to my father to report the situation of this battle, and the backer Wang Ke is also there, just because the child said a word, let the prince scold me in front of his father, you don't know what the backer king looks like." After reporting to his father, the child hurried to Panshan to find the prince to compensate, so that the prince was happy. After that, I asked Uncle Ye to keep a few glasses of wine, and I came to see you as soon as I came back, mother, I am your own child, you can't wronged me like this. You see me so obedient, are you willing to be angry? ”

Naturally, he didn't really blame, and Queen Jiangshan reprimanded: "Stay and go." ”

Wang Jiang flattered: "Mother, look at what I brought back to you." ”

As he spoke, the fourteenth prince, who was still coquettish like a child in his twenties, had an egg-sized translucent yellow-brown crystal in his hand as if he were juggling, showing off his merits in front of his mother, "This is a tortoiseshell found in the Persian Gulf further west of Anxi, mother, do you like it?" ”

Even if she is used to seeing these rare things of great value, as a mother, she received a gift from her son, regardless of whether she is noble or cheap, she is naturally extremely happy, Queen Jiangshan looked at it in the bronze mirror, the pretended anger on her face disappeared, and she smiled with her eyebrows, "This is like words." ”

It's just that this thing, which is several times larger than the ordinary tortoiseshell in the palace, did not attract the queen's attention too much, and even this son who didn't look like an adult didn't let Jiang Shan look at it too much, but the action of cleaning up those jewelry in his hands paused obviously, and asked a little indifferently: "The wine you drank with your uncle in the bamboo forest again?" ”

The queen mother, who is accustomed to seeing rare treasures, is not very rare for this kind of thing to play with, but Wang Jiang looked at it over and over again in his hand, and didn't care about his mother's demeanor, and said: "Yes, you don't know that Uncle Ye hasn't been back to the mountain for a long time because of the original incident." Uncle Long and Uncle Ma are also there, the Daojiang Northern Daodu Governor is also there, and the old general Wudi Wu, who has been guarding the Andong Protectorate in Hebei Province for several years, has also come back from Humu this year, you also know that the temper of the backer king is very weird, and those people are not happy to stay with the prince in private, so they all go to the bamboo forest to find Uncle Ye. If you want to come to Uncle Night, it won't be boring. ”

Obviously, she didn't hear what she wanted to hear, and Queen Jiangshan threw the piece of silk handkerchief produced by the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau into the bronze basin not far away, and said: "Today, I can make your mother really tired." The Shangyuan Festival has just stopped, your father is going to feast the ministers in the palace, and he ordered him to make a new dragon robe. This sore back, come and give me a beating. ”

As she spoke, the queen got up and walked to the couch, it really didn't look like a soft and tender body that was about to be forty years old and lay on the couch, and the delicate mouth made a long sound, and then said: "Your brother and your sister are married, the king of the king, your sister's lazy temperament, you know that you are playing, and your mother can only count on you." ”

Jiang Shan, who tilted his head and closed his eyes and waited for his son to come and pinch his shoulders, continued: "You said that your Uncle Ye is too, and he is also in his forties, and the eldest is not the same as your child's temperament, and his father is angry, you will go to the mountains to accompany him more if you have nothing to do during this time, your third brother and sister Yaoer are not there, and it is inconvenient for your sister Linling and Sister Jiazi to go in and out, and you can't count on it, and he is really worried that he is there alone." ”

Wang Jiang, who stepped on the bed and squatted down to smash his mother slowly, agreed, and said reluctantly: "But I really don't want to go, mother, if I meet the prince, I always have a straight face, I'm afraid to see him." Why don't you go with me? ”

Jiang Shan smiled bitterly in his heart, why didn't he want to go over? Whether it was to get out of this breathless imperial city, or to deliberately comfort the two father and son who seemed to be enemies, she really wanted her son to take her there.

But now that he is a father and a mother, and has this special identity, the grievances and hatreds of Chen Guzi and rotten sesame seeds more than 20 years ago have long been abandoned, how can he have to go to his children again, and spread it out, wouldn't it make the world laugh and break the face of this great country?

"My mother really wants to go, do you think my mother is happy to be in this palace every day? When you open your eyes, you have to think about the food, drink, food, clothing, housing and transportation of the entire inner city. The queen lady who was really a little difficult to read in this family sighed, obviously a little big about this "position" that knew the difficulties in it.

Folk women all think that one day a golden phoenix will fly out of the chicken nest, and she will be able to enter the palace to be a servant, and then the chicken dog will ascend to heaven. But if you really enter this big house, all kinds of rules and regulations are pressed on your body, not to mention, and the intrigue with the blue eaves can also be very depressing.

As the master of this harem, she can rest assured that she can't afford this mess, and she can't let the Son of Heaven distract herself from her own family affairs.

Jiang Shan sighed again, as if he spit out a sudden strange thought and the depression of walking on thin ice for more than 20 years, and said: "The backer king is also an old man, and his grandchildren are all about to start a family. It's just a real person who knows his temper, and I'm afraid that those villains before and after him will make a fuss about him. Obviously, there is no pampering and arrogance, maybe it will be related to the arbitrariness and arrogance of relying on the old and selling the old. Twenty or thirty years of dedication to my Great Zhou Dynasty assisted two generations of the Son of Heaven to set up flame-stirring achievements, I am afraid that it will also be misinterpreted by some villains who take it out of context. ”

Wang Jiang was not interested in these twists and turns of the trivial matters between the DPRK and China, and he was even less interested in listening to them, and even his strength was much smaller, Jiang Shan naturally felt it, and said: "You too, you think about fighting and fighting every day, as soon as you hear that there is a war somewhere, you run forward with your head broken, you don't want to think about how to make some connections in this court, and you also follow your fourth brother to learn and work Wenzhi." If you continue to fool around like this, it really chills my mother's heart. ”

"The fourth brother is talented in civil and military affairs, so I just bother with martial arts." Wang Jiang pouted and said, "It's okay to say a word all day long, a sentence can distort a hundred and eighty meanings, and it can be annoying to death." ”

Jiang Shan smiled bitterly, closed her eyes and pretended to sleep, if she didn't have to, how could she like her little son to do those thankless things?

But thinking of the fact that in recent years, husbands and wives have shared the same bed, and occasionally unintentionally mentioned the king of the backer, the prince of heaven, who has always humbly accepted advice in front of him, even if he was still gentle and smiling at the last moment, he didn't say a word, and once he turned over directly and gave himself the back of his head, which shows that in private, the king with a different surname who is a big family has also become a piece of the saint's heart.

It's just that such an elusive mind, being a wife and a mother, can only be buried in the heart and cannot be spoken to others.

The always graceful and luxurious queen Jiang Shan was not afraid of her son's jokes, buried her face in the pillow full of refreshing and refreshing cassia seeds, and squeezed the peony bun on her head that needed two maids every day to take care of it smoothly.

"Only in this way can you protect the people you want to protect."

Whispering like a dream, the fourteenth prince didn't seem to hear it.
