"Ke'er, I haven't competed with you for a long time!" After the court, Zhu Jin left Zhu Ke alone, and they came to the practice room together.

"Then Ke'er will practice with the emperor's uncle today!" Although the empress dowager has been guarding against Zhu Ke, the relationship between Zhu Jin and Zhu Ke is very good, not only because the two are only one year apart, but also because Emperor Taizu and Empress Qi at that time were busy with the government all day long and were too strict with Zhu Jin, which made Zhu Jin seriously lack the love of his parents since he was a child. Zhu Jue, a half-brother of him who was much older, was Zhu Ke's father, took great care of Zhu Jin. Sometimes Zhu Jin even felt that Zhu Jue was more like a father, which really proved the saying "The elder brother is like a father."

"I'll see if Ke'er has made progress during this period!" Zhu Jin said, and he pushed his palm over, and Zhu Ke also hurriedly avoided the attack.

"Uncle, please rest assured, I won't give in to you just because you are an elder!" Zhu Ke, who avoided the palm wind, started to fight back. The two of them punched each other and kicked each other. It was really hard to tell the difference in the distance after a few rounds, and they just hit a tie.

"Ke'er!" After the move, the two sat on the ground. Only at this time can they reveal their true emotions. There is no need to worry, they will be questioned by the Queen Mother, nor will they be worried. The ministers will think that they are distracted and do not do their jobs.

"I'm here!" Zhu Ke, who was sitting next to him, replied.

"I just wanted to ask you!" Zhu Jin pretended to be serious

"What?" Zhu Ke wondered what the emperor would have.

"Ke'er, how did the injury on your forehead come from?" Zhu Jin was very confused. As for Zhu Ke's martial arts, although he could not be said to be invincible in the world and could not be considered a martial arts master, he was more than enough to defend himself. Even if he met a master, there was Xiang Lixing who had unfathomable martial arts skills around him. Therefore, Zhu Ke was injured and injured on his forehead, which was really strange.

"This..." Zhu Ke touched his forehead, the damn woman, but he just said angrily, "I accidentally bumped into it!"

"Crash?" Zhu Jin was very suspicious, but this was the reason that made him laugh so hard that he couldn't stand up.

"What's so funny!" Zhu Ke was a little unhappy. After he returned home, he must go to settle the score with the woman. He was also glad that he did not tell the truth with the emperor. Otherwise, being broken by a woman would be enough to be cowardly, and being ridiculed by the emperor for the rest of his life

"Crashing into the tree..." Zhu Jin said with joy, "Haha, Ke'er, just imagination is funny!"

"Then you laugh!" Zhu Ke wrote another note to Qi Xiaoyu. He suddenly wanted to see the woman who appeared inexplicably.

"Your Majesty, your row of little white teeth, I really feel annoying when I look at you!" It was Zhu Ke who dared to be so arrogant in front of Zhu Jin.

"Okay, okay, I won't laugh at you anymore!" But I still couldn't help laughing

"Then you keep having fun here!" Zhu Ke stood up and pretended to leave, "I'm leaving!"

"Don't be so stingy!" Zhu Jin couldn't help laughing. Zhu Ke wanted to stay when he heard his words, but seeing his constant shrugging, he knew that he was still laughing, so he took away the threat of Zhu Jin again.

"Okay, okay!" Zhu Jin surrendered. If he smiled, he would really anger him. At that time, Ke'er would be so mean to him that he would be unable to withstand the king of a country!

"The Qi family has been very arrogant in the court recently. Ke'er, you have to help me!" Seeing that Zhu Ke was still angry, Zhu Jin changed to the method of changing the topic.

"The Qi family relies on the support of the empress dowager, and they will never take it..." Take the emperor seriously. Zhu Ke chose not to say what he wanted to say anyway, and the emperor also knew what he wanted to say, and his words also hindered his identity.

"I will one day defeat the Qi family!" Zhu Jin seemed to be making an oath

"The Qi family's arrogance and domineering will be a long time ago. In the court, they will be able to eliminate dissidents sooner or later because of their stupidity!" Zhu Ke said, "I will help the emperor to reason with the Qi family who disrupted the court!"

"Ke'er, fortunately I have you around me!" Zhu Ke is the only person I trust most now.

"Your Majesty, I will always be on your side!" At this moment, Zhu Ke absolutely sincerely supported Zhu Jin, who grew up together since childhood. Although they are uncles and nephews, they are still in the imperial family, but their relationship is better than brothers.

"Ke'er, if it weren't for being born in the imperial family, how great would it be!" Zhu Jin sighed

"With Ke'er, I'm more confident to bring down the Qi Yin Marquis!" Zhu Jin patted Zhu Ke on the shoulder. At this moment, the biggest enemy of their Zhu family was Qi Yin Marquis.

The Queen of Qi Yin was the nephew of the Queen Mother Qi, but he was a few years older than the Queen Mother Qi was the daughter of Qi Geng, the grandfather of Qi Yin, so she always regarded it as a pearl in her hands until she was thirteen years old. At the beginning, she was just a talented man around Emperor Taizu. At that time, the Queen was still the biological mother of Zhu Ke's father Zhu Jue, and the Queen Yongning of Fu's family.

Empress Fu, who was born in a prominent family and a scholarly family, has been pampering since childhood and has a gentle and charming personality. At the age of fifteen, she married Emperor Taizu, who had just turned 18. Two years after marriage, after giving birth to the eldest son of Taizu, Zhu Jue, Emperor Taizu fought all day abroad, and Empress Fu raised her son alone.

Twelve years later, Emperor Taizu completed the great cause of unifying the world at his thirty years. Emperor Taizu gave preferential treatment to the remaining ministers of each dynasty, and recruited former ministers to surrender. Qi Geng, the remaining minister of the previous dynasty, realized Taizu's great mind and the policy of loving the people as his son, and decided to surrender to the Red Ming Dynasty. The Qi family was still a noble literati with a prosperous family.

In order to enrich the harem, the Chiming Dynasty held a talent show every three years. The show girl must be a literati-official class to participate. Moreover, the daughter of the noble literati-official family must participate, and as the daughter of the Qi family must also participate.

During the talent show, Emperor Taizu had already decided to make the daughter of Qi's family a concubine in order to win over the hearts of Qi's family. When Emperor Taizu saw the daughter of Qi's family, he was shocked and immediately named her as Concubine Qi.

The thirteen-year-old Concubine Qi, facing the majestic Emperor Taizu, was also in love. She was full of infinite love for Emperor Taizu. If she was favored by the emperor, she would naturally be envied by those who were interested and plotted by some people.

Concubine Qi, who is only thirteen years old, has a simple mind and does not understand the open and secret struggles in the deep palace. She would never have thought that the women in this palace would be so vicious that Concubine Qi was framed repeatedly, but was rescued by Queen Fu repeatedly.

The queen is a kind-hearted person. She looked at the intrigues of the women in the harem, but she just watched coldly. She had already obtained the most noble status of women in the world and had a wealth that everyone could not reach. However, those who have experienced life and death have long taken all this lightly. Only the simplicity and innocence in the eyes of Concubine Qi are the most longing for and the most precious thing. Therefore, she wanted to protect that smart but innocent little girl.

Because of the protection of Empress Fu, Concubine Qi lived a carefree life in the palace for five years. However, in a ruthless disease, Empress Fu died and lost the protection of the queen. The simple Concubine Qi was framed several times. Moreover, the then crown prince Zhu Jue was framed together because of the loss of the protection of her mother. Concubine Qi and Crown Prince Zhu Jue, who have always been in conflict, were forced to grow up. They understood a truth: If you want to protect yourself, you must first make yourself stronger and have strong power.

Concubine Qi began to support the Qi family's power. She wanted to protect herself and protect Queen Fu's son when she was eighteen years old. One year after her son Zhu Jin was born, Zhu Jue's son Zhu Ke was also born. However, not long after, Zhu Jue became obsessed with a young witch, Yuer, and even gave up the position of crown prince for her. Zhu Jue tried to help Concubine Qi help Zhu Jin as the position of crown prince. She stayed with the witch, Yuer, and left her wife and children to Concubine Qi to take care of her. Until the death of the emperor, Zhu Jue returned to the capital again. She wanted to meet her father for the last time, but also to help Zhu Jin ascend the throne.

Zhu Jin became emperor, and Concubine Qi was naturally the Holy Mother Empress Dowager. In order to consolidate her status, she had to support the Qi family. The power of the foreign relative Qi family quickly became stronger and became stronger, and the Qi family began to suppress the royal Zhu family. This was unexpected by the Queen Mother. However, after all, Empress Dowager Qi still turned to her family, so that the Qi family's power gradually surpassed the Zhu family. Although the power of the Zhu family should not be underestimated, compared with the Qi family, it was indeed at a disadvantage and was suppressed by the Qi family everywhere.

"Report to the Emperor, the Empress Dowager, please go to Cining Palace." A small eunuch came to report

"I understand!" The emperor said angrily. He actually didn't want to see his mother, because he always thought that his mother just regarded him as a tool for fighting for power and never really cared about his son

"Emperor, I will leave!" Zhu Ke stood up

"Then Ke'er, you go back first, I will compete with you next time!" This time, there is no comparison, so I will leave the suspense next time!

Zhu Ke returned to the mansion and the first thing he did was to ask Qi Xiaoyu to vent his anger. It was the woman who caused him to be ridiculed by the emperor. He must teach that woman a lesson.

"Where is that woman?" Zhu Ke did not see Qi Xiaoyu at the first time, and his expression was very cold.

"Prince..." The housekeeper didn't know which woman the prince looked for as soon as he got home?

"Where is Miss Qi?" Xiang Lixing asked the manager.

"The prince is looking for Miss Qi!" The housekeeper then realized, "I'll go find her right away!" The housekeeper said, and ran out. When Qi Xiaoyu returned to the Washing Clothes Courtyard in the morning, the housekeeper Zhu Shun did not stop him, because the prince did not say how to place the girl Qi. At this moment, the prince was looking for someone again. It seemed that the prince was not ordinary to Miss Qi. He walked to the gate of the courtyard and said to a servant guarding there, "Go to the Washing Clothes Courtyard to find Miss Qi!"

"Yes!" The servant went quickly
