Treacherous Living in the Imperial Harem

v5 Chapter 36: Servant

Among the many princes under Chunjia's knees, King Jin was the one who was deeply jealous of the Central Palace before landing.

After all, Yun Fenghuang has been in the palace for many years, and he is still a prince.

I would like to know that the ambitious concubine Min, if it is said that before the King Jin landed, she did not necessarily have the ambition to enter Qingci Palace later, after having such a son, it is impossible not to be a queen mother.

If possible, Gu Zhen hoped from the bottom of his heart that King Jin was stupid and would not be treated by Chunjia.

But the fact is that King Jin, as Yun Fenghuang's biological son, has been treated differently by Chunjia since he landed. Even though he didn't pass Qin Wang Zhaoqing's originally favored emperor heirs, he was still one of the children that the emperor had in his heart.

Moreover, even though the fifteenth prince hadn't shown the cleverness and dexterity enough to overwhelm the other princes, he was considered to be of outstanding aptitude and quick thinking.

It can be said that King Jin is even more of a confidant of Zhonggong than King Qin.

After all, given Yun Fenghuang's favorability, if Chunjia was hesitating among several princes, King Jin would have won by virtue of being her own flesh and blood.

As for the emperor’s solemn swearing-in-law...

Five years ago, Gu Zhen and the Gu family had such hopes.

Now, five years later, if they are still convinced, their wealth over the years is simply for nothing.

"The king of Jin lost his courtesy in his imperial court today. Later, because his reply was too lax, he was reprimanded by his majesty to go out three times in a row." The attendant calmed down and said in a low voice, "I was even punished to kneel for four hours. After King Qin and others begged, His Majesty agreed to let King Qin replace..."

"That is just to show King Qin's kindness to the younger brother, so that it can be explained to the government and the people." The queen shook her head slightly and said, "The **** of the palace to your majesty, although there is no clear understanding of the Xuanqing Palace. , But also somewhat understood. This kind of trivial matter, your Majesty will not be angry at all. Not to mention that King Jin has always been favored by him, as usual, His Majesty has only more tolerant truths. But when you think about it, it can only be said that it is for King Qin... Not only for King Qin, but also for King Jin. King Jin’s character is to escape. Your Majesty’s move, Jomo also hopes that he will be more stable. If King Jin is only going to be an ordinary prince, he will be... a little foolish in the future, your Majesty is embarrassed. Can't tolerate it?"

Therefore, the emperor is so restrained, can only say that he has greater hopes for this son.

This makes the queen's master and servant's heart heavy.

A concubine Min has been suppressing the harem for more than ten years.

Now her son, but he has the emperor's expectation again, this... how will he live his life in the future?

"Niang Niang, no matter how young King Jin is so loved, how young is it?" After a moment of silence, an elderly palace man slowly spoke to comfort the queen, "At that time, the officials played to ask the crown prince, and his majesty regarded him as the heir of the emperors. Young, I don’t know Xianyu refused. But now, the eldest son of the emperor is thirteen, even if we don’t do anything, there are always courtiers who can’t hold back and want to mention this matter. Recently, someone has not spoken to your majesty, please Your majesty canonize the descendants? This move is actually to test the holy will and speculate on the future of the princes. The ten princes are the descendants of the princes recorded on the jade plate, and they have grown up in front of your majesty for the past two years. Presumably it's not far away."

"In addition, he is older than King Jin. As long as the ten princes perform well, your Majesty will have to weigh up the opinions of the officials if he wants to abolish the elders."

"What's more, the imperial concubine is now in her twenties or eighth, considering her age, even if she is skilled in her appearance, she is not comparable to a young girl in her twenty-eight years."

"I haven't entered a newcomer in the palace for many years, so you might as well ask the mother-in-law empress dowager to add one or two sensible palace members to your majesty."

She remembered, "Didn't Your Majesty even reminded me a few days ago that I should prepare some rewards for King Yi and Yongchunhou? Since this is the case, why not just arrange some for your Majesty? Anyway, it is a matter of convenience."

Gu Zhen said slowly: "You can only think so."

If it hadn't been for the ten princes who looked a little hopeful, she would have long been unable to hold it.

Rao is so, the queen still feels heavy, "It's just that Jing'er has gone, and there is now Jue'er in front of this palace. She has never been close to Xiaoshi... Now the reputation of Gu's daughter is... alas!"

"Don't be sad for the empress. How is the style of the Gu family? Does anyone outside know it? You know that the imperial concubine did it, so how could it be that the Gu family's daughter is unbearable?" The attendant said softly, "As long as the tenth prince sits in that seat, all this It will be solved naturally."

Gu Zhen also knows this. The key is whether the ten princes can become princes?

If it can, Gu's plight will definitely be resolved instantly.

I'm afraid that the hard work will be empty in the end, this...

"King Jin..." The queen thought for a moment, then said slowly, "What can you do to arrange this child?"

The attendants discussed it a bit, and they all found it tricky.

After all, this lord is favored, talented, and not stupid. His mother is not a fuel-efficient lamp. How can it be so easy to deal with him?

But after brainstorming, they still found a flaw.

The princes' petitions quickly subsided. The former harem remained vigilant for a period of time. Seeing the middle palace and the imperial concubine, they stopped casually, and even met when they asked An, and they laughed at Yan Yan, as if they had never had any conflicts with each other. Same, even though I knew that these were all pretends, I was secretly relieved thinking that I would not tear my face again in a short time like this.

Time has come to escape the summer heat.

The palace is very familiar with this now, and the Qintian Supervisor has finished his days, then packed up his things and set off.

After arriving at the Qishan Palace all the way smoothly, the maidservants were busy returning their luggage and quickly settled down.

Only after a while, I heard news that the Empress Dowager had some coughing.

The empress dowager has not had any sense of existence in the past two years, but after all, her identity is placed there, because she has no threats, the emperor is not respectful to her, but she is considered polite.

Hearing this news, it is inevitable that you have to go to the hospital in person.

Of course, the Empress Dowager disagrees. After all, she is ill and there is nothing wrong with it. If Chunjia is spread ill, it would be a big deal.

In short, after the performance of Zuci and Sun Xiao, the empress dowager said: "The other children are not familiar with the mourning house, so don’t bother, but it’s Xiaoqi, you can often come to the mourning house and walk around."

In the past two years, everyone has also learned that the Seventh Prince not only looks and temperament similar to Chunjia when he was a teenager, but also often looks and deports like a young Shenzong.

Because the bloodlines of this pair of great-grandparents are alienated, the degree of resemblance may not be very much, but the death of Shenzong for many years, even if it is only one or two points, is enough to make the empress dowager remember.

So much so that the empress dowager likes this unrelated great-grandson very much.

The emperor agreed, turned his head and said to Yun Fenghuang in private: "I have asked a doctor, but it's just a common cold, and the emperor's grandmother is too old to cough... after taking two medicines, it's almost the same. Now, ask Xiao Qi to go over. He is in full bloom, and he may not be sick."

"What your majesty said, after all, it is the empress dowager, who is sick as an elder, and wants a younger generation to accompany him, what else can I refuse?" Yun Fenghuang said, "you can't tell your majesty to lay down government affairs and go to the sick. ."

The implication is that your son did his filial piety for you. You have to remember this!

Chunjia laughed when she heard it, and said, "I know Xiao Qi has been working hard this time, so let's wait for the emperor's grandmother to get better, and I will allow him to make a request."

Anyway, the child taught by the imperial concubine is very well-measured in the big right and wrong, and it is impossible to embarrass him with this promise.

Those are not too embarrassing... The emperor had a good impression of the Seventh Prince, so he didn't intend to be stingy.

So that day, the Seventh Prince packed up his things and went to the Empress Dowager to wait for the sick. After hearing the news, the Queen couldn't sit still.

First, she personally went to greet the empress dowager, euphemistically expressing that the ten princes also cared about the empress dowager, and hoped that the ten princes would serve the emperor's great-grandmother together.

This is not Gu Zhen's affection for the imperial grandmother, but the worry that the empress dowager's move will be interpreted by the outside world as the imperial elder who also prefers Xuanqing Palace.

Otherwise, why are there so many emperor heirs who just want to accompany the noble concubine?

The empress dowager indeed has no power now, but the status is still there.

Many times, even Chunjia has to act in her name to show orthodoxy.

Therefore, Gu Zhen couldn't ignore this opportunity to attend to the sick.

It’s just that the Empress Dowager can’t talk about disgusting or liking the ten princes, so she is not very happy: "The Ai family is old and likes to be close. It’s fine if only Xiaoqi is in front of him. If there are more children, I’m sorry. Home is a little too much."

She has nothing to care about at her age and seniority.

But he didn't care about not giving it to the queen.

Gu Zhen was also embarrassed. She wondered what was wrong with her ten princes, and why was she so disgusted by the Queen Mother?

But he had to respectfully continue to persuade: "Don’t worry, the emperor grandmother, I was a bit naughty when I was a child, but now that the child is older, how can he still be as ignorant as he was when he was a child? I was worried, and asked repeatedly that I wanted to see you. My grand-daughter-in-law came to ask first because he was afraid that he would come to disturb you rashly. Besides, although Xiao Qi is good, he may not be able to serve him by himself. Xiao Shilai I can help him anyway."

The empress begged for a long time before the empress dowager reluctantly let go, but only let the ten princes come the next day.

Rather than just pack things up and live in the wing room in her yard like the Seventh Prince.

This kind of differential treatment made Gu Zhen really uncomfortable, but he still had to ask for it.

When she returned to Woxialou, she cleared up her emotions, and asked people to summon the ten princes to the front, telling him about the process, and finally warmly persuaded: "Although your emperor great-grandmother is no better than before, you are the royal elder . She is ill, if you don’t want anyone to serve you, since the seventh prince is gone, then you must go too. Although she prefers the seventh prince, but after you go, she will do everything in accordance with etiquette, presumably she won’t. Say what."

Yu Pai looked at the tenth prince with a little worry, fearing that this child would be as arrogant as he was when he was a child and could not bear it.

Fortunately, the ten princes did not live in the Piandian of the Taichu Palace for two years.

In fact, he doesn't know how to look at his face, but when he used to be in front of the queen, he didn't need to look at his face at all, so he indulged his own sexuality-being domineering.

When he got to the emperor, he urged him to learn something interesting. At first, he dared to be arrogant. Later, he realized the reality and didn't dare to mess around, but he knew how to judge the situation.

After all, his father would never show him like his mother's queen.

Listening to the Queen’s words at this moment, not only did she readily agree, but also comforted her: “Don’t worry about the queen. After your son is over, you must try to get along well with the seventh brother. Even if the seventh brother doesn’t like your son, your son will not care. In short, the phoenix body of the emperor's great-grandmother is the most important thing."

The emperor may not eat the filial piety, and the filial piety of the prince in front of him will not have any extra points, at least there will be no obvious extra points.

But people in the world still eat pure filial piety.

He is older than King Jin, and he is the prince. If there is another filial, honest, friendly brother...In the future, Chunjia wants to make him a prince, and it will be difficult to find a reason.

Therefore, this time the empress dowager is sick, he must go.

"There is one more thing." Gu Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, thought about it, and then said, "The Queen Mother said that you are busy with homework, so just go the next day. But the seventh prince simply lived with her. If things go on like this, it will be passed on. I'm afraid that some people suspect that you don't care. So this palace wants Jue'er to send you some medicated soup and water for you when you are not going to your Queen Mother. What do you think?"

Having said this, the queen immediately looked at the expressions of the ten princes intently.
