Chapter 4: Catch the Week
On that day, the palace of Fukuzawa was peaceful, and all the ministers gathered in the Zhengyang Hall used for the royal protocol event, and the maidservants and father-in-law were all happy, and today they will give the two princes the gift of catching Zhou.
Speaking of which, it has been a year since the night light assassination rebellion in the palace, Concubine Qing murdered the queen and should have been hanged, but the poor prince of the Jing Xuan clan could not let the little prince be born without a mother, and he remembered the virtuous and obedient concubine of the past, so he reconciled it and finally exempted Concubine Qing from death.
But the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped, and Concubine Qing was sent to the cold palace. Concubine Qing in the cold palace was secretly persecuted by the queen on the one hand, and she was also tortured by the pain of premature birth, but she was already a living dead like a walking dead for half a month. Fortunately, Jing Xuan's mercy was handed over and the imperial doctor was hand-picked for treatment. But I never thought that Concubine Qing's illness was cured, but her throat was dumb all of a sudden, and her voice was pleasant and beautiful before, but she couldn't speak at this time.
In the past, when the king was still the prince, he liked to visit in micro-clothes, one day he imitated a small city-state in the south of Fuze, because it rained, he hid under the eaves of a scholarly compound to avoid the rain, and suddenly heard the sound of a woman reading in the window, and looked through the window, there was a beautiful lady Tingting standing in the house, holding a book, reading aloud.
The king fell in love at first sight, and this girl was Concubine Qing.
Later, the king took Concubine Qing to the palace and ordered someone to serve her. His father was originally a small county commander, and he was also promoted to an important position in Beijing. Concubine Qing is obedient and has always been gentle and considerate to the king, and there is nothing wrong with it.
In the end, the king still cares about the old feelings, seeing a beautiful woman like Concubine Qing, she was dumb after entering the palace, and now she is so miserable, but she regrets taking her into the palace. It has been more than half a year since the night light assassination in the palace, so on the grounds of punishing Concubine Qing for copying scriptures and thinking about it, Concubine Qing moved to Qingyuan Mountain, 10 miles away from the palace.
Qingyuan Mountain is quiet, people usually don't come and go, there is a scripture in the mountain, Concubine Qing lives in it to copy the scriptures and recite the Buddha, but also safe. It's just that Concubine Qing is a guilty body, and there are officers and soldiers around her, and she will not be free.
On this day, Concubine Qing burned incense and prayed in the Qingyuan Hall in Qingyuan Mountain, she also heard the auspicious music in the palace, Silai today is the first year of the child she is looking forward to day and night, she prays for the child, one wishes the child is healthy and grows up safely, and the second wishes the child is smart and bright, and the future has achievements.
The two princes born on the same day were named by the king himself, the eldest prince Xuanyuan Hui and the younger prince Xuanyuan Ming.
At this time, in the palace, the two princes lay peacefully in the arms of their respective nurses, and the ceremony of catching Zhou Da began immediately.
"Princess-in-law, let's start catching Zhou Dadian. "The king ordered.
"Obey the order—the beginning of the Zhou ceremony—please place the two princes on the couch. ”
I saw that the center of the main hall arranged a carved dragon inlaid with jade bed, which was covered with red brocade silk, and the silk cloth was covered with star objects, including the three-character scripture, pen, ink, paper, inkstone, jade abacus, gold and silver money ingots, jade jade medals, swords, medicine sacs and other things.
On the side of the bed, the orange-clothed nurse handed the eldest prince to the queen, and the queen herself carefully placed the eldest prince at the end of the bed.
The purple-clothed nurse holding Xuanyuan Ming handed Xuanyuan Ming to Jing Xuan's family, and Jing Xuan's family put the child at the other end of the bed.
The eldest prince sat on a squat with his ass on his shoulder, looking around with his small round eyes. The queen took the child's favorite sweet snack in her hand and lured the child into the pile of gold and silver. The child looked left and right, and finally held a majestic red sword in his arms.
The ministers applauded one after another, "The eldest prince will definitely be a pillar of the country and a hero of the world in the future!"
On the side, Xuanyuan Ming was lying lazily, Jing Xuan's and the nurse took a rattle and teased sweetly, but Xuanyuan Ming looked aggrieved, unhappy, and reluctant to look small, and finally teased him to grab an object, but at first glance it was a medicine sachet.
The last thing everyone wants to see is that Xuanyuan Ming grabbed the medicine sachet, because the child was born prematurely, and he brought a weak disease from the mother's womb.
The king was disgusted, and the ministers were also thinking about how to congratulate the round, and the Jingxuan clan broke the deadlock first. Jing Xuanshi laughed heartily, "This kid is going to emulate the sage of the medical saint hanging pot to help the world in the future and save the common people!"
"Congratulations to the king, the eldest prince is a hero, Xuanyuan Ming rescued the common people!"
The queen didn't want to see the child from the beginning, and when she saw that he had grabbed a medicine bag, she secretly disdained it.
Jing Xuan's clan was overjoyed, hugged Xuanyuan Ming and smiled, "My emperor and grandson will definitely have a future in the future." With that, he smacked the child in the face.
Xuanyuan Ming was so favored by the imperial grandmother, and a cry of "wow" rang out, and the cry resounded through the hall. Crying and crying, it seems that he can't use his strength.
"Quick, Doctor Sun, show my grandson. ”
Xuanyuan Ming's scene seemed to be weak and sick, and a group of Tai Doctor Xiao Si and others stepped forward to take care of it.
After the Zhou ceremony, the palace was full of music and wine banquets, and after everything was over, everyone went back to the palace and returned to their homes.
The queen had gone to her place in the hall of virtue, where her heavy makeup had faded, and the maidservants had untied her wide garment and changed into her bedclothes.
The nurse held the eldest prince and served by her side, and today the prince grabbed the sword that was obtained by the servant girl and lined up beside him.
Look at the sword, the scabbard is red color all over, the hilt is equipped with nine-color crystal gemstones, although it is not out of the sheath, but it hides the domineering atmosphere, this sword is the founding treasure of the Fuze country for several generations "Chixiao Sword". This sword in the hands of the king of Fuze from generation to generation, the first king in the king of Yue ascended the throne of the prince when the king of Yue gave the king of Yue, today the eldest prince caught Zhou to catch this treasure, the king of the dragon face Dayue, then gave this thing to the eldest prince. The ministers speculated whether the king had the intention of establishing a prince.
"Niangniang, the eldest prince really gave Niangniang a long face today, there are many treasures, the eldest prince just grabbed this Chixiao sword, the king is now giving the sword to the eldest prince, maybe this is the intention of establishing the prince. Siqi, the personal maid, said with infinite pleasure while combing the queen's hair.
"Hui'er is indeed clever," said the queen, who looked up at the prince, and the mother looked at her child with anticipation and joy in her eyes.
"The second prince didn't catch anything today, but grabbed a medicine bag," the maid Siqi sneered, "It's really a sick seedling, and I grabbed a medicine bag every week." ”
The queen thought for a moment, "It's also strange to say, at that time, Mrs. Li gave Concubine Qing a dose..."
The queen suddenly noticed that there were other idlers around her, and she couldn't help but be silent, and pretended to be lazy, and yawned.
"The mother is going to sleep, the nurse will take the prince to rest, and the others will also retreat. ”
"Yes", everyone retreated. At this time, only the queen and Siqi were left in the dormitory.
"It's strange to say, that day you said that Li gave Concubine Qing the medicine for a sliding fetus, why did the child not slip off after all, but fell into some weakness. The queen wondered.
"Niangniang, it is estimated that Li is a humble person, and she can't make any good medicine, maybe it's because the dose of medicine is less, so it's a fluke. Now Xuanyuan Ming has a disease, although the imperial doctor doesn't know what to say, but Siqi sees the symptoms, this disease is very much like some fatal incurable disease, maybe..."Siqi looked left and right, deliberately lowered his voice, "Maybe one day the little prince will go by himself." ”
The corners of the queen's mouth raised slightly, revealing a smug smile, "In this way, the position of the crown prince must be owned by my son." ”
"Yes, Niangniang, Siqi is here to congratulate Niangniang in advance. ”
"Is there a whereabouts for that person?"
After the queen framed Concubine Qing that day, the little priest in front of Concubine Qing was immediately executed, as was his family. But this Li midwife heard the letter out of nowhere and ran away with her son overnight. Since the year before last, Mrs. Li has been with the queen to serve the fetus and recuperate, and she is good at observing words and emotions on weekdays, and she doesn't know much about the affairs of the queen's palace. For a year, the queen wanted to get rid of the trouble, and had been secretly chasing and killing the two.
"There is a whereabout, the son of Mrs. Li is a gambler by nature, and the spies came to report that the whereabouts of the two have been traced in Nancheng, and it is difficult for him to fly this time. ”
"Don't miss this time!" the queen was amazed.
In another big hall in the palace, Jing Xuan's family held Xuanyuan Ming in his arms and teased him with exquisite red dates, and the ancestors and grandchildren were not warm and sweet.
"Queen Mother, this is the medicine bag that the prince grabbed today. Xiao Si presented a medicine sachet, which contained eighteen excellent medicinal materials such as Schisandra chinensis, Boziren, and Panax notoginseng flowers, which could help calm people and relieve pain when worn on the body.
"Okay, order someone to show off the gold silk pattern, and embroider an auspicious cloud dragon pattern. Then take the agate necklace that I am close to, take off the jadeite in the middle, and ask Xiugong to set it on this medicine bag. ”
"Obey the order, the prince has the love of the queen mother, and now that the prince is carefully conditioned and his body is becoming more and more stable, the prince will grow up healthily and achieve great success in the future. Nanxiang, a close confidant of the Jingxuan clan, said.
"My emperor and grandson have suffered an accident since he was a child, his mother was killed, and his small body and bones are unexpected..."Jing Xuanshi choked, "Such a young child suffered from an incurable disease and could not live to be 20 years old." ”
"The slave deserves to die, make the Queen Mother sad. Please rest assured that the minions will definitely visit the world's famous doctors to save the prince. "Nanxiang Pozi is prostrate on the ground.
"Did Mrs. Li's mother and son find it?"
"There is a whereabouts, please rest assured that the Queen Mother knows the inside story of the incident of the year, and the little ones must find this person, ask this person clearly, and seek justice for Concubine Qing. ”
"Hmm. Jing Xuan's eyes had tears, hugging Xuanyuan Ming, infinitely distressed.
