"You are very good at riding and shooting. You must not be wasted. Today is the Dragon Guard Competition..."
If Liang Yi had not married the princess, he would have worked hard to become a member of the Dragon Guard and become a member of the Dragon Guard. Fight for your own life.
However, the current situation made his previous plans completely in vain...
Listening to Zhu Jinghong's story, Liang Yi felt even more uncomfortable, but he still had to be patient. Listen.
As he walked to the garden and approached the table, Zhu Yunsheng let go of Zhu Jinghong, got behind everyone first, and passed the maid to pull the stool for Zhu Jinghong.
She is the legitimate princess and has been served by others since she was a child. Apart from the emperor and empress Zhu Jinghong, she is the third person to enjoy this treatment.
Her move left several nearby maids at a loss. After all, they failed to do their duty.
"Brother Thirteen, please take a seat!" Zhu Yunsheng smiled.
"Did you see that? After you get married, you grow up... and you know how to take care of others!" Zhu Jinghong looked around and said.
Zhen Qin Yinglian praised her one after another, but Baochai just smiled.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Jinghong just took his seat, and Zhu Yunsheng took the tea cup from the maid's hand in a "unnecessary" manner, and then handed it to his brother.
"Brother Thirteen, last time you returned to Beijing, my little sister was unwell and couldn't come to see you... Don't blame me!"
Zhu Jinghong was about to speak, but he heard Zhu Yunsheng continued: "Even if you blame me, after drinking this cup of tea... don't blame me!"
At this time, Zhu Jinghong looked to the other side, only Baochai and his co-defendant were seated.
"I never noticed this clever mouth before!"
When Zhu Jinghong spoke to himself alone, Baochai had no choice but to respond.
"Sheng'er has always been smart, but you just treat her like a child!"
Zhu Jinghong only thought these words were normal, but in Zhu Yunsheng's ears, they had another meaning. It actually made her feel a little uneasy.
In fact, Baochai just said it casually and did not mean to hit Zhu Yunsheng. It can only be said that the latter is too sensitive.
But in the royal family, it is never a disadvantage to be more sensitive and think more. If you are as ignorant as the prince, it will definitely lead to big problems.
"I must have overthought it. Sister Bao is not so stingy!" Zhu Yunsheng comforted herself.
She had to think this way. She was afraid that after her mentality changed, she would cause even greater trouble in the future.
After everyone took their seats, the whole banquet officially began. Zhu Yunsheng talked more during the whole process and put more thoughts on Baochai.
This reflects Zhu Yunsheng's intelligence. After all, "the county magistrate is not as good as the current governor." If Baochai becomes the queen in the future, many things will be easier for him than for Zhu Jinghong.
After an hour passed after the banquet, two brothers, Zhu Jingchun, also came over, each bringing their princesses with them.
This made Zhu Yunsheng feel pressure, because her two sisters-in-law were trying to flatter Baochai.She is more sophisticated, which greatly squeezes her display space.
As for the men, they were talking about the war between the two men, and Zhu Jinghong mentioned the rebellion in Hunan.
When they heard this, the two princes were shocked. They did not expect such an outrageous thing to happen.
"Hundreds of thieves? Captured three counties? What do those local officials do for a living?" Qingyang King Zhu Jinghao scolded.
At this time Zhu Jingchun said: "Didn't you listen to Brother Thirteen? Three magistrates have died for the country, and there is no way to hold them accountable!"
Zhu Jinghao said with a sullen look on his face: " It's easy for them!"
Now in Zhu Jinghao's view, it is appropriate for the three magistrates to die for the country, but this does not eliminate their sins.
The two of them were very happy, while Liang Yi on the side rarely spoke.
At this moment, he really wanted to plead for mercy and asked Zhu Jinghong to say a few words so that he could go to Hunan and participate in quelling the chaos.
In his opinion, the success rate of going to Hunan is higher than that of the northwest. If you want stability, you should go directly to Hunan.
But at the moment, he did not say it himself. Firstly, he spoke very abruptly, and secondly, he felt that Zhu Yunsheng's conveyance was more likely to be successful.
As a result, Liang Yi listened attentively, only interjecting a few sentences from time to time to guide Zhu Jinghao and the two to ask questions to understand the details of the Hunan rebellion.
Because of the arrival of Zhu Jingchun and his family, Prince Xiang’s Mansion arranged another dinner, and everyone dispersed only after nightfall.
On the carriage ride back, Liang Yi expressed his thoughts.
"Brother Thirteen, I can't go and plead for mercy!" Zhu Yunsheng said solemnly.
"Why?" Liang Yi looked unhappy.
"Thirteenth brother has been criticized many times and does not want to interfere with the affairs of the court. For this reason, Thirteenth sister-in-law has reminded me, should I make things difficult for them?"
Hearing this Liang Yi fell silent.
Understanding Zhu Yunsheng's difficulties, Liang Yi could not think of forcing his wife. After all, this was something a man was not ashamed of.
"I see you are busy today, laughing and serving others. Isn't this a bit too much?"
"Prince and Prince Rui, I've never seen you like this..."
"What's wrong?" Zhu Yunsheng turned around and asked with a smile.
Liang Yi hesitated to speak, and finally chose to shut up.
Zhu Yunsheng said calmly: "If you don't say it, I will say it for you... You want to say that I am flattering, right?"
Liang Yi still did not speak, and his expression proved that he Default.
"Fourth brother and sixth brother, I have never been like this. You are so smart and arrogant, you should think about it...why I am like this!"
Hearing this, Liang Yi smiled slightly He was stunned for a moment, and then he began to think carefully.
He is also a very smart person. Before the carriage went out for a few dozen meters, he thought of a possibility, a very bold possibility.
"You mean...His Royal Highness King Xiang..."
Seeing that Liang Yi, an honest man, wanted to say it directly, Zhu Yunsheng reached out and covered his mouth.
Liang Yi understood and immediately shut up, and then Zhu Yunsheng took his hand back.
Immediately afterwards, he opened the small drawer on the side of the seat and took out a pen and paper from it.
Under the dim light, Liang Yi started writing.
He first wrote the character "王", then looked at Zhu Yunsheng and then wrote the character "白".
The combination of upper and lower is the word "emperor"!
Liang Yi looked at Zhu Yunsheng with questioning eyes.
Seeing Zhu Yunsheng nodding, he felt the impact in his heart, but at the same time he felt that this matter was reasonable.
In the eyes of military men like Liang Yi, it was natural for Zhu Jinghong to be the emperor as he was destined to be.
Zhu Yunsheng picked up the paper, folded it a few times, put it into his sleeve, and then said softly: "Forget about this, otherwise it will be a disaster rather than a blessing!"
" Yeah!" Liang Yi nodded.
The carriage was silent for a while, and finally Liang Yi spoke first.
"I still want to go to Hunan, can you think of another way?"
"How should I think of a way?" Zhu Yunsheng said casually.
"If I can ask for mercy from the Holy One, this will happen!"
"Princess... Madam... Madam... I beg you!"
< p>Liang Yi also frowned, and now he stood up and knelt in front of Zhu Yunsheng, just short of kowtow to his wife."Just help me...help me once!"
"As long as you help me, I will listen to you whatever you say!"
In order to be able to show himself, Liang Yi really went all out.
But precisely because he sacrificed everything to plead for mercy, Zhu Yunsheng understood that if he did not agree, the husband and wife would become strangers in the future.
"Okay...I'll help you, but whether it will work or not...I can't say for sure!"
Of course I can't say whether it will work or not, even if Zhu Yunsheng doesn't work hard. It is also possible that Liang Yi will think of ways to prevent this.
Of course, this is all after returning home.
In the blink of an eye, the next day came, and the Qianqing Palace held another meeting.
This discussion was entirely due to Zhu Jinghong’s suggestion, but today he himself claimed to be ill, but the prince came to the scene instead.
After hearing that the emperor said that in order to wipe out the rebels as soon as possible, more troops from Guizhou and Hubei would be deployed, the courtiers all exploded.
After all, we just said that we should go all out to prepare for the northwest war, and now we have to make a big move in Hunan. The finances are already difficult and it is difficult to support it.
In the end, the Minister of Household Affairs who attended the meeting bluntly stated that he was unable to fulfill the emperor's will.
Officials present objected one after another. Zhu Xianming himself was not firm, so he did not push the matter.
In the afternoon, Zhu Jinghong learned about the results of the court meeting, which he was not too surprised about.
He also knew that objectively speaking, his proposal was making a fuss out of a molehill, so he did not get involved in this matter anymore.thing.
Today’s imperial court is not only spending a lot of money in the northwest, but also in Yunnan and Guangxi. There are so many places that need money, and there is no waste of national capital.
But within two days, Zhu Jinghong learned the news, and the emperor issued an additional edict, requiring Guizhou and Hubei to take strict precautions and not allow bandits to escape into their defense areas.
A few days later, Zhu Jinghong learned the news again. The emperor ordered the Metropolitan Procuratorate to send people to investigate, and the Prince Consort Liang Yi was ordered to accompany him.
For such a big incident in Hunan, there must be some shady activities behind the scenes, and the local officials and guards are unreliable.
For this reason, the emperor has ordered Beizhen Fusi and Dongchang to send people to investigate respectively, but this is a private detective sent by the emperor.
The Metropolitan Procuratorate sent people to investigate, which is more representative of the imperial court.
Generally speaking, the censors dispatched by the Metropolitan Procuratorate have secret decrees and have arbitrary power at critical moments.
Zhu Jinghong didn't pay much attention to these things. He didn't want to get involved in anything more, so as not to make the emperor fear him.
However, the emperor wanted to hear his opinion on many major matters, so he was called into the palace from time to time, of course in the name of the queen.
When Zhu Jinghong entered the palace that day, Baochai stayed in the palace, sitting around the pavilion playing chess with Daiyu.
Daiyu came to see her specially and had stayed in the palace for three days. During this period, she was "harassed" by Zhu Jinghong a lot.
"Alas...I lost!" Baochai threw his money directly.
Then she picked up the round fan and shook it slowly.
It is now late June, the weather is already hot, and the pavilion is also very stuffy.
Daiyu smiled and replied: "Sister Bao, you do two things at once...it's not surprising that you lost!"
Looking at the pond outside the pavilion, Baochai replied: "You're wrong... I don't do two things at once, I do all ten things!"
Daiyu joked: "If I didn't take that wishful thinking at the beginning, I'm afraid I will be able to do a lot of wishful thinking now!" ”
Although Baochai is usually easy-going, there are not many people who can joke with her, especially jokes of this level.
That was the highlight moment of Baochai's life. Now that she thinks about it, she feels it is unreal. She smiled and replied: "He insisted on giving it to me. If I didn't accept it... wouldn't it embarrass him?" !"
Daiyu then replied: "A good person like Sister Bao must not be bullied by him!"
Baochai turned around and stared at Daiyu for a while, and then Said: "What about you... A good person like you, do you want to be bullied by him!"
"Sister Bao... what are you talking about!" Daiyu looked blushing and lowered her head at this moment. .
In the past few days in the palace, Daiyu was not polite at all when faced with Zhu Jinghong's frivolous character. She publicly challenged Zhu Jinghong several times and refused to come down. All the girls in the palace were shocked by her courage.
But at the moment, the famous Lin Daotun is extremely shy.
“Huh?"Baochai also lowered his head, trying to see Daiyu's expression clearly.
"Sister Bao... what are you talking nonsense about! "Daiyu looked away.
"Why didn't Baoqin come today? "
Knowing that Daiyu wanted to change the subject, Baochai did not make things difficult for him anymore and replied: "I went to Yinglian's place, she likes to tease children! "
Just when the two of them were about to continue chatting, a maid hurriedly walked in, said a few words in Ying'er's ear and then left.
Ying'er followed closely. He walked into the pavilion and reported: "Mother, there is news from Jinling that on the seventh day of June...Mother Yang gave birth to a baby boy! ”
Today is June 22nd, and the news has been on the road for more than ten days. This is the normal speed after all.
After all, not everyone can, like Zhu Jinghong, enable the acceleration. Ji Xin said.
Baochai didn't care when she gave birth, she only noticed the word "baby boy"
In other words, Zhu Jinghong had a second son.
“Send someone to Jinling to congratulate Concubine Yang, and make some preparations before I enter the palace! "
Enter the palace to announce the good news to the queen, Baochai made this very clear.
"Yes! ”
“Girl Lin, go and play with Baoqin and the others!” ”
Daiyu nodded, but she didn’t see anything strange in Baochai’s expression, which made her admire Sister Baochai very much.
She felt that she couldn’t compare her feelings with others. This is not because I can’t, but because I don’t want to.
“Sister Bao, walk slowly! ”
Watching Baochai leave, Daiyu started to pack up the chess pieces, and Zijuan also leaned over to help.
In fact, they didn’t have to do these things, it was just because Daiyu was bored.
“Girl, where are we going? "
"Go...see Sister Yingchun! "Daiyu made this decision.
In Yingchun's stay at Prince Xiang's Mansion, she was almost a transparent person. She spent most of her time hiding in her room, reading and writing as if she really wanted to leave the world of mortals and become a woman who always accompanied the green lantern. Taoist.
In order to be hidden, Yingchun was placed on the northeast side of the back garden. There is a small courtyard in the bamboo forest.
When you get close, the cool breeze makes you feel peaceful.
Looking around, the bamboo forest is quiet and quiet, it is really a retreat.
“Who is outside? "
This is Siqi's voice. Daiyu has stayed in Rongguo Mansion for a long time, so she still has some impressions.
Walking along the path in the forest, Daiyu said: < /p>
"I heard that Gao Shi is here and came to pay a visit... Please let me know! "
"Miss Lin is here..."
After discovering that it was Daiyu, Si Qi was overjoyed. Then she opened the bamboo door and said: "Miss, please come in quickly. , I’ll go tell the girl right now! ”
After saying that, Si Qi turned around and entered, while Daiyu slowly approached the small courtyard.
The courtyard is very simple. There are wing rooms on the left and right after entering the gate, and then you sit in the north court. The main room in the south
Besides Siqi, there are several other people here.The famous maid is preparing tea, cakes and cakes.
Si Qi walked out the door and said with a little embarrassment: "Miss Lin, please come in!"
Logically, Yingchun should go out to welcome him, but she had no choice but to sit down if she didn't come. Come on, it's normal for the latter to feel embarrassed.
Daiyu didn't care too much. She knew how "miserable" Yingchun was, and she came here just to care about her.
After entering the room, Si Qi led her to the quiet room on the east side. Daiyu saw Yingchun wearing a gray Taoist robe and sitting behind a desk without makeup.
"Sister Lin is here!" Yingchun smiled, but her smile was a little forced.
In the past few days at the palace, Daiyu had seen Yingchun several times, but she had not been able to say a few words.
Daiyu nodded, approached the book case and asked: "Sister Yingchun, what book are you reading?" The transcoding has been serious recently, which makes us more motivated and updates faster. Could you please use your little hands? Exit reading mode. Thank you
