Chapter 13 The Unexpected Incident
From that day on, Zhu Changluo would come to Qianqing Palace on time every day. The guards and eunuchs in front of Qianqing Palace gradually became familiar with the existence of the eldest son of the emperor, and their attitude towards Zhu Changluo became more and more respectful.
Since the little princess Zhu Xuanyuan was rescued by penicillin, her life has gradually gotten better, her life has become more lively, and there is much more laughter in Jingyang Palace than before.
"Chang Luo, I will test your homework today. You can recite the article that I asked you to recite yesterday. Now recite it to me."
Emperor Wanli would educate Zhu Changluo for one to two hours every day. Now Emperor Wanli seems to be used to teaching Zhu Changluo how to read and write every day.
Zhu Changluo said: "Yes."
Then Zhu Changluo began to recite the article assigned by Emperor Wanli yesterday. Zhu Changluo recited: "There is a fish in the North Ming Dynasty, and its name is Kun. Kun is so big that I don't know how many thousands of miles it is; when it turns into a bird, its name is Peng. Peng's back , I don’t know how many thousands of miles it is; it flies in anger, its wings are like clouds hanging from the sky..."
Zhu Changluo recited this chapter of "Xiao Yao You" in a cadence and clear enunciation, and the rhythm of the article also deliberately imitated the intonation of the first time Emperor Wanli read it to him.
Emperor Wanli listened quietly to "Xiaoyaoyou" recited by Zhu Changluo. He couldn't help but imagine in his heart that it would be great if he were this huge Kunpeng, so that he could travel between heaven and earth and no longer be subject to the Forbidden City and civil servants. Their bondage will be fine.
When Zhu Changluo finished reciting, Emperor Wanli also recovered his thoughts. Emperor Wanli said: "I can recite quite well, and I have some talent for reading."
Zhu Changluo said quickly: "This is all the result of my father. I am stupid. If it weren't for my father's careful teaching, I would still be a confused and ignorant boy."
Emperor Wanli said: "Continue writing after you have memorized the book. Your handwriting has not improved much in the past month. Although it is much neater than at the beginning, the words are written without energy. This is not good."
Zhu Changluo said: "Er Chen is timid in temperament and does not have the aura of his father in case of emergency. Therefore, the character "Er Chen" appears to be particularly mediocre compared with that of his father. He does not have the kingly aura of his father to reveal the spirit of dragon and horse."
When Emperor Wanli heard Zhu Changluo praising his calligraphy, Emperor Wanli felt extremely proud. He smiled and said, "If you practice more diligently, your calligraphy will become much better in the future."
Zhu Changluo replied: "Yes."
Then Zhu Changluo began to spread out a piece of rice paper, and began to copy stroke by stroke the original regular script of Yan Zhenqing, which Emperor Wanli had taken from the Wenhua Palace, "Zi Shu Gao Shen Tie".
At the beginning, Zhu Changluo respected "Zi Shu Jie Shen Tie" like a god and did not dare to blaspheme it. After many times of copying, Zhu Changluo gradually began to treat it normally. After all, he is now a prince, so copying It is only natural to see the authentic works of famous people.
Just when Zhu Changluo was holding his breath and concentrating on copying the copybooks to try to figure out the true meaning, Qianqing Palace suddenly became lively.
What Zhu Changluo was worried about finally came to light.
I don’t know who told Concubine Zheng that the eldest son of the emperor was studying and writing in the Qianqing Palace of Emperor Wanli. When Concubine Zheng heard this, she couldn’t sit still. She was so angry that she rushed into the palace regardless of her. Come in and question Emperor Wanli.
"Zhu Yijun, what do you mean? Why did you let this bitch study in the Qianqing Palace? Have you forgotten the oath you made to me?"
Concubine Zheng was extremely fierce and called Emperor Wanli by his first name. Her plump breasts were rising and falling with anger. She stared at the embarrassed Emperor Wanli with her round eyes.
The reason why she dared to do this was because Emperor Wanli's love for her was unparalleled. Emperor Wanli had made an alliance with Concubine Zheng in the Dao Palace to make her child a prince. So when she heard someone tell her that the emperor's eldest son When Emperor Wanli visited the Qianqing Palace, Concubine Zheng felt that she had been betrayed, so she rushed to the Qianqing Palace regardless of the situation.
Emperor Wanli also knew that he was in the wrong, but when he heard Concubine Zheng calling Zhu Changluo a bitch, Emperor Wanli felt very uncomfortable. Although he didn't like this son, Zhu Changluo was still his child, and he was called a bitch directly. So, Emperor Wanli would still feel unhappy.
However, he loved Concubine Zheng to the core, so he would not say an angry word to Concubine Zheng. Emperor Wanli coaxed Concubine Zheng and said: "Concubine, don't be angry. I just taught Chang Luo to write a few words and memorize them." It's just an article. In my heart, you and Chang Xun are my closest relatives and loved ones. Don't think too much about it."
Concubine Zheng hummed: "I don't dare to think too much. Your Majesty is the most powerful person and can do whatever you want. I don't dare to accuse you. From now on, I will just stay in Changchun Palace with Chang Xun as orphans and widowers." Don’t come out to hinder the emperor’s eyes anymore.”
Emperor Wanli continued to coax Concubine Zheng, "I will never forget my oath to you. If you don't like Chang Luo, I will just stop seeing him in the future."
Zhu Changluo heard what Emperor Wanli said from behind, and his heart skipped a beat, "It's over, it's over. Emperor Wanli's strict control over his wife is really a trap. I have been treating him as a good son for several months, and I obey him and compliment him everywhere." I didn’t expect Concubine Zheng to cripple me with just one word. It’s true that one person is more likely to die than another.”
Zhu Changluo could not sit still and wait for death at this time, so Zhu Changluo had no choice but to use the cruel trick of pinching his own flesh. Zhu Changluo pinched his soft flesh hard, and tears of pain suddenly came out.
Zhu Changluo took advantage of the tears to come out from the back and wrote the case. He knelt on the ground and said pitifully: "I'm sorry, father, it's all my fault. I shouldn't make Empress Zheng angry and embarrass my father. I kneel down now." An left and returned to Jingyang Palace to serve my mother and concubine and take care of my sister. Father, please take care of me. I know that your heels are not good. From now on, you should listen to Madam Zheng more and take good care of yourself. Don't injure your dragon body from working day and night."
Zhu Changluo cried while talking. He looked so pitiful that Emperor Wanli felt heartbroken. But looking at the angry Concubine Zheng next to him, he didn't know what to do.
Zhu Changluo then said to Concubine Zheng: "Concubine Zheng, please take good care of your father. Although my father has numerous harems, Chang Luo knows that you are always the only one in my father's heart. You are the only one who can accompany your father in this huge palace." Tell your true feelings and relieve your father's worries. Although your father is suffering from the recent incident in Beijing, he will not say it, but Chang Luo knows that only Empress Zheng can comfort your father. These ministers invite you by direct invitation. They are always in trouble with my father, and they use the Beijing inspection incident to attack dissenters for their own entertainment, but in the end they make my father bear the reputation of punishing the ministers. They also use me to drive a wedge between you and my father. Chang Luo hates them. "
How does Concubine Zheng know anything about the Beijing Police? This is exactly what she said to Emperor Wanli. Zhu Changluo wanted to express an attitude to Emperor Wanli. I am very filial to you and on your side. I will not stand with those civil servants. Together we force you.
Emperor Wanli was deeply moved when he heard that Zhu Changluo understood his heart in this way. So he transferred all his hatred of the country-based dispute to the civil servant group, and he also felt a sense of sympathy for Zhu Changluo.
Concubine Zheng heard Zhu Changluo talking about how she and Emperor Wanli were deeply affectionate and a husband and wife, and she couldn't help but lose some of her anger towards Zhu Changluo.
Lady Zheng Guifei said a lot: "You are not wrong, but the emperor is too busy, and it is not good for you to waste time all day long. You can go to the ceremonial supervisor to study, it is more leisurely over there."
Zhu Changluo despised him in his heart, he was busy? He was so busy! He didn't even go to court, so what kept him busy? He was busy staying with you in the palace, and you and I were fighting each other? But Zhu Changluo definitely couldn't say that.
Zhu Changluo felt relieved. Sure enough, pretending to be pitiful was effective. Although he could no longer come to the Qing Palace, it was good to be the Supervisor of Ceremonies. The Supervisor of Ceremonies was the inner court of the palace, and the eunuchs with Bingbi were comparable to the cabinet ministers. There are only advantages and no disadvantages to them mixing together.
