Chapter 130: The Crown Prince Youwang
King Zhou Xuan has often felt troubled recently, not because of a public betrayal of his concubine Lin Zi, but because he felt at a loss. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
If a person has too many things, it is inevitable that they will feel this way. Just as well-fed people sometimes worry about what to eat for three meals a day, King Zhou Xuan often worries about which concubine he will be happy to eat at night.
The number of concubines of the Son of Heaven was so large that they could form a huge army. The harem has six bureaus and twenty-four divisions, all of which are filled with women from good families from all over the world, and there are all kinds of beauties, which is dazzling.
Although King Zhou Xuan is the Son of Heaven, he is a man after all, and he can't love the beauty of a woman. No matter which woman he is lucky with, he will not do it for any particular reason, just to satisfy the needs of his body.
However, the desires of the Son of Heaven are not so easily satisfied. A woman who is too easy to get often makes him boring.
The reason why Lin Zi once won the favor of King Zhou Xuan was not because she was glamorous, but because she was the only woman in the harem who did not want to be touched by the Son of Heaven. Now that he has lost such a special existence, King Zhou Xuan began to feel depressed again.
Until one day, a minister named "Father Yushi" came up with a way to solve this trouble for King Zhou Xuan.
The solution is simple: let a sheep decide where the Son of Heaven sleeps.
King Xuan of Zhou sat on a sheep cart and was pulled around the harem by a sheep. The sheep stopped in front of the beautie's door, where King Zhou Xuan spent the night tonight. The reason why Yu Shifu chose sheep is because the sheep have little strength and poor physical strength, and they will stop when they encounter steps or thresholds, and they will not have this effect if they are replaced by horses or cows.
However, there are policies and countermeasures. Those concubines who wanted to get close to King Xuan of Zhou, some put bamboo leaves in front of the door, some sprinkled salt water on the ground, and some directly sprinkled salt water on the grass and bamboo leaves, so as to tempt the sheep pulling the cart to stop in front of their door. Sheep are particularly interested in salt, and the smell of salt naturally stops.
As the saying goes, the magic is one foot high, and the road is one foot high. If the concubine is the Tao, the Son of Heaven is the devil. The concubines racked their brains just to conceive a "demon seed". So many women have taken great pains to continue the incense for the Son of Heaven, and it is difficult for King Zhou Xuan's heirs to think less.
No one knows how many heirs King Xuan of Zhou had, because the number is increasing every day. However, everyone knows that King Zhou Xuan's favorite son will always have only one - Ji Gongyan.
One gloomy afternoon, the damp wind blew into the imperial study, mixed with small invisible water droplets blowing on the face, making people feel cool and comfortable on their faces.
Ji Gongnei couldn't sit still.
There are not many things in this world that can make this eleven-year-old prince unable to sit still, but he doesn't even have the heart to read today.
What shook this little prince who was loved by thousands of people?
If you ask this question to Himemiya himself, he will be excited to tell you that today is the most anticipated day of the year. Because at this time of year, the envoys of the vassal states would come from far and wide to Hokyo to offer the most precious treasures as tribute.
However, not every vassal state's tribute was favored by the little prince.
Ji Gongni was born in the emperor's house with a golden spoon in his mouth, and he didn't think it was strange how big the diamond and pearl was, and how beautiful the jade agate was just a stone in his eyes. Anything that can interest him is definitely a unique treasure in this world.
The only country in the world that can offer such a treasure is Shen Guo, and the only one who can make Yahime Palace Nirvana absent-minded is Shen Guo. The annual tribute of the Shen Kingdom can make Himegong Nei excited for a whole year.
Shen Guo's tribute doesn't look like a priceless treasure at first glance, but everyone must admit that Shen Guo's tribute will never be able to buy it no matter how much money anyone spends.
Ji Gongyan was most impressed by one year, Shen Guo used eight sedan chairs to carry a big ape. This ape has a gray coat, except that it is larger than an ordinary monkey, and its appearance is basically indistinguishable from that of an ordinary ape.
Miraculously, this white ape can speak human language on a full moon night, not only can talk freely with people, but also predict what will happen in the future.
The white ape once predicted that a northern Rong tribe would have a rebellious heart, and King Xuan of Zhou sent someone to investigate and verify, and found that there were indeed people there who were plotting to rebel. King Xuan of Zhou immediately sent troops to encircle and suppress it, attacked it unprepared, and won a complete victory. As soon as the white ape entered the palace, he made great achievements, and the subsequent prophecies were all fulfilled, and now it has become the treasure of the town.
Whenever he thinks of the white ape, Ji Gong Ni will have many guesses about Shen Guo's tribute this year. Helplessly, today finally came the long-awaited day, but he had to sit here and read.
As the prince's teacher, Xi Bojifu was looking at the dense rain clouds outside the window at this time, and his clear side face was as calm as usual.
Ji Gong Nei knew that the teacher's position was just enough to see a corner of the North Palace.
Thinking that the envoys of various countries would send tribute there, Ji Gongyan wanted to rush out immediately to see what was going on, but he didn't do it, just secretly looked at a ring ruler in Xi Bojifu's hand with a pair of eyes.
The seven-inch-long sandalwood has doubled in value because it is a gift from King Zhou Xuan, and it has become the biggest jealousy of Yeji Palace. Although Ji Gongni is an emperor, he has to obey the orders of the courtier. Everything he does now is to change from a prince to a qualified son of heaven.
Actually, Ji Gong Ni didn't fully know what the benefits of being the Son of Heaven were, just because it was his mother's wish, so he had to work towards this goal. He often envies those who can waste their youth at will, just like a canary in a cage and a sparrow that flies freely.
Himemiya lowered his head, his buttocks rubbing back and forth on the sandalwood stool, his knees tickling, as if urging him to stand up quickly and go wherever he wanted.
At this time, there was a "whoosh" sound in my ears!
Himenomiya Ne's head was suddenly hit by something!
At first he thought he had been beaten by the ruler, but when he looked at him, he found that the teacher was still standing still with his back to him.
With a slight sigh of relief, cold sweat slowly flowed down the corners of his forehead, and Himegong Ne began to search for the thing that hit him with his spare eyes, and finally found a cloth ball wrapped in stones under the table.
Ji Gongni was just about to reach out and pick up the cloth ball, when he suddenly saw a dry and emaciated hand pick up the cloth ball first! Slowly looking up, he saw Xi Bojifu open the cloth ball in front of him, throwing away the stones inside, his sharp eyes flowed over the cloth, and his facial features gathered together slightly because of anger, but he never said a word.
This is by no means a good sign, Ji Gongyu thought.
The silence of Xi Bojifu was far more terrible than a reprimand for Himemiya. With his previous experience, if Xi Bojifu did not punish a mistake, he would most likely have to talk to King Zhou Xuan.
Ji Gongni was most afraid of seeing his father's disappointed gaze, that kind of faint gaze seemed to be able to burn people, even more uncomfortable than being beaten a hundred times by the ring ruler. He had always been afraid that Bergeev would fanning the flames like this, and that he would shake his position in the eyes of his father.
At this time, Ji Gongni was looking forward to Xi Bojifu quickly beating people with a ring ruler as usual, as long as he didn't go to his father to complain, Ji Gongyan was even willing to do anything.
At this moment, his heart had completely succumbed. He wanted to say to Xi Bojifu that as long as he didn't complain to his father, Ji Gongni was willing to concentrate on studying and wouldn't go anywhere. Just before Himemiya opened her mouth to beg for forgiveness, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Ji Gongne stared blankly at the door, his open mouth instantly stiffened, and he saw a man dressed as a eunuch walk in.
The man is burly and tall, but he walks like a girl, even more charming than a girl, which can't help but make people feel very funny.
"The king has something important to discuss, please go immediately. The man lowered his head and said in a feminine tone.
Xi Bojifu remained silent, only looking at the man dressed as a eunuch.
The man's head lowered, and his gaze began to wander, like a shy girl avoiding Ruyi's gaze.
At this time, Ji Gong Nirvana suddenly discovered that the sideburns of this "eunuch" were bare, as if he had never grown hair......
It turned out to be him!
The corners of Ji Gongni's mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, and he suddenly realized. The man was not a eunuch, but a descendant of Li Jing, the chief soldier of Chentangguan in the Shang Dynasty, a bald general known as the "Absolute God of War", named "Li Hongxi". Li Hongxi has a younger brother who is a monk and a Taoist priest, and he is a bald head like him.
I heard that since the generation of Li Hongxi's grandfather, the descendants of the Li family, regardless of gender, do not grow hair. Some people say that this is the karmic retribution of their family who have been in the army for generations and have killed too much, but Li Hongxi is convinced of this, and often feels distressed by his bald head.
Ji Gongyan pinched a cold sweat, feeling that Li Hongxi's current situation is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire, how can a cunning "old fox" like Xi Bojifu be easily deceived by such a little trick?
However, to Ji Gongyan's surprise, Xi Bojifu didn't seem to find any clues, but just said to himself:
"Wechen retired first, hoping that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will keep what he has learned in mind, focus on the country's society, and don't be greedy for fun. ”
As he spoke, Xi Bojifu opened the confiscated strip of cloth in front of Ji Gongyan, deliberately looked at it again, and then turned to leave.
This move is obviously a threat, and Ji Gongyan has secretly scolded his teacher thousands of times in his heart.
Taking advantage of the fact that Bo Jifu didn't pay attention, Li Hongxi felt that he was done, and secretly grimaced at Ji Gongyan.
Is it really so confused? Ji Gongyan's heart is ready to move, as long as Xi Bojifu walks on the front foot, he can go straight to the North Palace on the back foot.
"Slow ......"
Xi Bojifu said slowly, stopping and suddenly stopped.
Li Hongxi and Ji Gongyan's bodies shook at the same time, and this subtle action betrayed the two of them in an instant!
Himenomiya turned his head stiffly. Xi Bojifu happened to meet his eyes, and a pair of old and sharp eyes had already seen the changes between the two of them just now.
Without waiting for Xi Bojifu to speak, Li Hongxi couldn't hold his breath anymore, and suddenly pulled down the top of his high hat, revealing the top of his shiny head, and shouted:
"What are you waiting for, run!" Li Hongxi's tone was like that of a bandit in the green forest.
At this point, Ji Gongyan couldn't care about it so much, so he immediately put aside the scroll in his hand and waited for the opportunity to move.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
Xi Bojifu threatened, and the implication was to remind Ji Gongyan that he still had a handle in his hand.
Ji Gongyan bit his lip, looked at Xi Bojifu, looked at Li Hongxi, and thought about the treasures of the Shen Kingdom that he couldn't wait to see......
After hesitating for a moment, he finally gritted his teeth and jumped out of the window to escape!
However, although his body jumped out of the window, Ji Gongyan's collar was grabbed from behind, and his two legs kicked desperately and couldn't land.
Seeing this, Li Hongxi hurriedly rolled up his sleeves and reached out to snatch the ring ruler in Bo Jifu's other hand. Don't look at Li Hongxi, who is less than twenty years old, but his strength is amazing. Even if he tried his best, he could only barely stalemate with him.
The ruler of Xi Bojifu is a gift from the Son of Heaven, and a slight damage is a great crime. He didn't dare to let go, and he was afraid that the ruler would be broken, so he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.
"Leave it to me here, Your Highness, hurry up!" Li Hongxi shouted: "I heard that the envoy of the Shen Kingdom is a master named Fox Master, presumably this year's treasures must be extraordinary!"
Ji Gongyan was overjoyed in his heart, and while struggling, he shouted: "Big bald head! If I see the fox master, I will definitely help you ask how I can make you grow hair!"
Li Hongxi was overjoyed in his heart, and with a light hand, Xi Bojifu's entire body was thrown over by him!
"Taishi...... Sorry to be offended. ”
Li Hongjun turned his head and smiled weakly, stretched out his hands respectfully, and handed the ring ruler back to Xi Bojifu's hands.
Xi Bojifu sighed, looked down and saw that there was only an empty brocade robe left in his hand, and Ji Gongyan had already broken out of his shell and fled;
