Chapter 197 She Stops Playing!

In the Palace of Taichu, Chun Jia moved his pen like flying, reviewing the memorials non-stop.

The queen below was holding a teacup and remained silent.

All the palace servants who waited around looked at their noses, noses, noses, and hearts, not daring to vent their breath.

After a while, the emperor finally stopped, put Zihao on the pen mountain, rubbed his wrist, and asked softly, "How is Twelve?"

"...The twelfth prince and the two queen mothers are fairly stable now." Gu Zhen pursed his lips, put down the tea bowl, and said in a low voice.

Chunjia said indifferently: "What clues did you just ask about the overturning of the boat?"

"My concubine is naturally dull, but I didn't find anything." Gu Zhen was agitated in his heart. Although he couldn't say it, he always felt that something was wrong... It was agreed that the empress dowager took the lead in launching the trouble, and the noble concubine was in trouble? Why is it that the court meeting has been noisy and noisy, the imperial concubine is safe and sound, and the empress dowager is concentrating on lying on the couch, so the most tormenting one is yourself?

And the vice-president who betrayed the water, is it the imperial concubine or the queen mother?

"You all retreat." Chunjia glanced around, waiting for him and the empress to be left in the hall, and then said, "There is no need for evidence, who do you think is the most likely to do this?"

Gu Zhen glanced at him, and said in his heart that I believe you are a ghost, if I tell you what I think, you may not immediately punish me for the crime of talking about elders: "If you go back to your majesty, I will not be able to think of it."

"It's not that you can't figure it out, but you dare not say it when you figure it out." Chunjia laughed and said, "You either suspect the noble concubine, or suspect that Empress Yuan directed and acted herself, don't you?"

The queen hypocritically said: "I dare not."

Chun Jia said lightly: "When I first received the news, I asked the Imperial City Secretary to investigate. It is true that Zhou Ji was not overturned for no reason, but was tampered with."

"From the current evidence, there is a certain relationship with the imperial concubine and Yuan's mother. But... I still have some doubts."

Gu Zhen sneered secretly, doubts? Of course you have doubts.

After all, you have no choice but to deal with these two, don't you?

If the evidence points to Bengong, I'm afraid you don't think much about it, just follow the rules!

"Either the queen mother or the imperial concubine is not a person who does not know the general situation." The queen who said this sentence rolled her eyes on the spot, thinking that a good emperor would be blind when she said she was blind.

Chunjia didn't care, and continued, "After the palace change, they immediately started arguing, and it was so big, you, King Chu, and Xiao Ba, even the missing Xiao Si and Yun Jieyu, Everything is involved... This is really a bit strange. Today, the ministers have repeatedly asked to thoroughly investigate the inside story. Although the original intention is to smooth things over, it is actually not unreasonable. In the final analysis, the cause is the capsized boat. I am worried that in the discord in the palace , who is hiding something...for example, Mrs. Ji."

"Does Your Majesty doubt the Empress Dowager?" Gu Zhen was a little disapproving. She didn't know about Ji Minggan's affairs, and she had preconceived ideas that Chunjia was biased. At this moment, she couldn't help thinking that the emperor was just making excuses.

I just want to excuse the Empress Dowager Yuan and Concubine Min.

At this moment, he casually said, "Then I want my concubine to accompany you to Qingci Palace to pay my respects, and test it a little bit?"

"It has nothing to do with the Empress Dowager." Chunjia said slowly, "I'm talking about the remnants of the Ji family."

After a pause, "Ji Minggan is not dead."

Gu Zhen was stunned for a moment, and said: "Your Majesty, what you mean is that Ji Minggan is not dead, but still hiding, mobilizing the remnants of evil, trying to bring trouble to the palace?"

Chunjia said "hmm": "Even if they didn't do this thing, at least they contributed to the flames."

"Your Majesty!" Gu Zhen was at a loss for a moment, suddenly thought of something, his face changed suddenly, and he asked in a deep voice, "Then the king of Chu back then?!"

"I don't know." Chunjia was silent for a while, and then said, "At that time, I didn't expect Ji Minggan to be on the head. Judging from the thorough investigation at that time, the king of Chu... should be a child with a weak body. Suffering from the wind and cold. If you really found out the clues, do you really think that I will make a big deal into a small matter? Ever since this child was recorded in your name, I have planned to make him a heir. The ordinary emperor's heir is fine, Anyway, there are many descendants under my knees now, so I can't afford to lose them. But the crown prince... the example of the former Emperor Xiaozong, how can I not use it as a lesson for the past?"

As the only son of Shenzong, Xiaozong was established as the East Palace when he was young, and it is said that he was brought up by Shenzong all the time, but...Compared with Shenzong's wrist, it can be said that there is a world of difference.

It is also because the father and son of the Tian family have a noble status, otherwise the outside world would have bluntly said that the tiger father and son are dogs.

"I asked the old man in the palace, back then Shenzong regarded Xiaozong as a treasure, and he brought him by his side since he was a child, and he doted on him very much." The emperor said lightly, "Even many cruel methods were deliberately concealed. We didn't let them know, and only taught them The way of a gentleman... From my point of view, although Shenzong's move is to love Xiaozong very much, it may not be a good thing. After all, Xiaozong is going to succeed Shenzong and be the master of the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains! He has no wrists, and the people under him are suppressed Can't stop, why are you talking about Yuji Yunei's king coming to the world? Shenzong I is famous, he can be called a sage king, I think he may not understand this truth. It's just that Shenzong's descendants are weak, and it is human nature to be reluctant to bear a son of Xiaozong... .”

"But I have many heirs, but I don't mind using a few competitive children as whetstones for the prince."

"That's why I dote on King Qin and Zhaoqing."

"At first, I thought that the eldest son of the emperor and the eldest daughter of the emperor are the same age as the king of Chu, so they just let them fight together since childhood and sharpen the king of Chu!"

"After they grow up, the king of Chu should also have a city, and I will entrust him with a heavy responsibility. While I am still in my prime, I can take care of him, and let him practice more... When I get old, I can rest assured!"

His expression was flat, but there was a bit of embarrassment in his tone, "But I didn't expect this child to be so unlucky. I haven't raised him personally, but he... I really don't know whether he was harmed by others, or whether he didn't take the responsibility of the country. Chao's fate?"

"..." Gu Zhen stared at him blankly, tears streaming down his face suddenly.

If Chunjia had said this before, she would not have believed it.

After all, the emperor and the harem knew how much the emperor doted on Concubine Min, and even loved Concubine Min's two children.

Said he was planning to use King Qin and Zhao Qing as whetstones for his son-in-law... Go lie to the devil!

But at the time of the palace change, King Qin and Zhao Qing, whom he kept calling his sweethearts, ignored him at all, but quickly sent someone to pick up the tenth prince and the twelve princes, whom he was not familiar with at all...

At this time, Gu Zhen had the same thoughts as Yun Fenghuang: The Son of Heaven is really terrible!

How did he do that?

King Qin and Zhao Qing's favor did not start recently.

But since he was still in his infancy, because of Concubine Min, he had a lot of contact with the emperor, and then he became the most beloved heir of the emperor.

Those two are also Chunjia's own flesh and blood!

Watching them grow up little by little with my own eyes, listening to their childish talk, watching them play around all day long, how can I bear it? !

When Gu Zhen decided to push the third prince out to fight with the imperial concubine mother and son because of the foolishness of the king of Chu, in order not to let the Xuanqing Palace steal the limelight, she felt that she was already very cruel. Around the eighth prince, she used Mrs. Yuan to give the third prince a layer of protection... The third prince was not her own!

How could Chunjia be able to do this, while doting on Qin Wang and Zhaoqing Qianyi Baishun, while ruthlessly thinking about how far these two children will make the son-in-law grow up?

She felt that no matter whether she was good at taking care of her family, if one day she lost to Chunjia, it would really not be wronged.

It's not that they can't do it, it's that they can't compare.

Really can't compare.

"The king of Chu is hopeless." The queen was in a daze for a while before she asked with a wry smile, "Twelve...he is still so young, even if he survives this time, it is not known whether he will follow in the footsteps of the king of Chu." !Now...there is only the Tenth Prince left. Then, may I ask Your Majesty, is your expectation for the King of Chu the same as for the Tenth Prince?"

Chunjia glanced at her, and said in a low voice: "Before, I asked people to clean up the side hall of the Taichu Palace, and watched King Qin and his brothers and sisters go to school. What do you think it was for?"

for what?

When Chunjia did this, everyone felt that the emperor valued the emperor's heir.

But the empress thinks that it is because the emperor prefers the noble concubine, so she loves the house and loves the princes and daughters under the noble concubine's knees.

After all, there were gossips heard both inside and outside at that time, that the emperor only planned to personally urge King Qin to study with Zhaoqing, and it was the noble concubine who gave the second prince, third prince, second emperor daughter and third emperor daughter the opportunity to be together. .

At that time, I was so envious, jealous and hated Yun Fenghuang, but now the empress felt so trembling in her heart.

She understood that what Chunjia did at the time seemed to be partial to the noble concubine, so she treated the eldest son and eldest daughter differently. In fact, one was to support the two children so that they could be used to polish the son-in-law in the future; the other was to practice hands.

No matter how clever Chunjia was, he never taught the emperor's heir before.

He has a high spirit and has high demands on himself since he was a child. How can he lower his demands on his son, especially the son raised by the future emperor?

So he first raised King Qin and the others in the side hall for half a year. During that half year, everyone felt that the emperor was really a loving father, and he never forgot to pay attention to the studies of the emperor's heirs all the time. In fact, King Qin and the others are just a cover, the only child Chunjia really wants to care about is the future heir and son!

Gu Zhen was full of mixed feelings, and couldn't help thinking, does the imperial concubine know what the emperor is thinking? How would she feel if she knew?

In the past, she had always resented Yun Fenghuang very much, but she was not envious in private.

This noble concubine Min came from a humble background, and when she entered the palace, she was in a dead end, but she unexpectedly turned the tables and rose to the top, all the way promoted to a position that Yun Shuangyu had never had before, not to mention her children, and now she is pregnant ... In terms of emperor's favor, who in this palace would not envy her?

But now, Gu Zhen feels that Yun Fenghuang is also very pitiful.

She didn't even dare to think, does the Son of Heaven really love Yun Fenghuang?

Or is it because he needs such a concubine in the harem?

After all, if Chunjia really loves Yunfenghuang, how can she have the heart to use the child under her knees as a whetstone for the son-in-law?

Even if King Qin and Zhaoqing were not born to Yun Fenghuang, but they were raised under their knees when they first landed, after all these years, even if they have a dog, they should have a relationship, right?

The imperial concubine has always been very strong, can she bear her beloved child being treated lightly by Chunjia?

Gu Zhen was in a state of confusion for a moment.

When she heard the voice of the emperor, she acted calmly as if everything she just said was an ordinary thing: "You and I have three sons, and now both of them are not at peace. The tenth prince is the only one left. Today, Your Majesty I told you to investigate the overturning of the ship with me, but I don’t think you have the heart to pay attention to it now. Go back and take care of the Tenth Prince.”

After a pause, "If the tenth prince also...then there will be a son in the future, I will personally raise him in Taichu Palace, do you have any objection?"

"...I don't dare." Gu Zhen smiled and knelt down on the ground, "It's because I am incompetent and can't protect my son. Your Majesty is magnanimous, and he has not blamed him so far, it is already an extra favor."

If something happens to the tenth prince again, then he will be the third son to fall into her hands.

In this case, record the prince under the name of the Zhonggong but not let the Zhonggong intervene in the upbringing. Wherever it is said, the emperor must be benevolent and righteous.

After all, who made her incapable of protecting the prince-to-be?

Knowing that this is the last chance, Gu Zhen didn't dare to be negligent, and he didn't have the mentality to think about other things. He said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, I know that I am stupid and dare not say anything about the capsized boat. I will go and see it now." The tenth prince... By the way, Your Majesty, about the life experience of the eighth prince!"

She gritted her teeth, she doubted Gu Shao anyway, and now she didn't have the energy to find out the details of this clan girl, since Chunjia was interested in a son-in-law, why should she play such tricks?

Has she played Chunjia before?

It's better to tell him everything, maybe it's safer for his son and his own status.

So the bamboo tube said like beans, "There is a problem with the eighth prince's life experience. It was mentioned by Gu Cairen and my concubine. Get up! There is also the noble concubine. Before the noble concubine sent Chen Zhu, the deputy chief executive, to ask for help from the concubine. She mentioned that if the concubine was suppressed, the loving mother, the empress dowager, would deal with the concubine next! The concubine was in a panic and agreed to the critical moment. I will speak for the noble concubine."

By this time, Gu Zhen also saw through, that she was actually no match for anyone.

What kind of empress dowager, Concubine Min, the remnants of the Ji family... Enemies she knows or doesn't know, she is no match for.

It wasn't all the family that made her sit firmly in the back seat, but Chunjia.

If that's the case, then she won't play anymore, just be a puppet in the lower position, and watch Chunjia protect the eldest son in the upper position, isn't it good?

"I know." After hearing the Queen's words, Chunjia's face did not fluctuate at all, and she said calmly, "Now is not the time when I first ascended the throne. I have heard about all kinds of things in the harem. However, there is no trouble in the past. When I get up, I can't bear to criticize... Now..."

He sighed and said, "I'll take care of it, you just go!"

Watching the queen leave, Chunjia was silent for a moment, and suddenly kicked the royal case over!
