Concubine Zheng's expression was a little indifferent, but was soon replaced by a determined look. "We fight and fight every day. Why are we? We, who were extremely pure at the beginning, have deep expectations for this Great Inner Palace, but after we came, we realized that this is a place where people eat and don't spit bones. How many people have died for so many years? When I entered the palace, how many people were killed by Queen Wang and the other party were asked to find a reason to kill me? My original wish was very simple, that is, to survive."

"Trying to exclude others, strive for favor, and strive to strengthen favor, I finally got the favor of the emperor, but I still walked on thin ice. Countless pairs of eyes around you are looking at you. The emperor will be bored sooner or later. What can you leave behind when the time comes? Only by pushing your son to that position can your position be consolidated, but in the end it is nothing? The person who keeps saying that he loves himself like life, but he has done nothing, it is really ironic."

Sighing softly, Concubine Zheng continued, "But you are different from me. My son failed to become the prince. You hold the prince in your hand, so you will hold the lifeblood of this country." At this time, Concubine Zheng's eyes flashed with excitement, and her whole body was naked. The dignified woman seemed to have changed into another person at this time, becoming more gloomy and colder.

"Your man is different from mine. He will soon be out of reach. You just need to control the prince." After a smile, Concubine Zheng did not speak, as if she was trapped in the memories.

While the two women were talking, the prince was also thinking, but no one could conspire with him, lying in a comfortable rocking chair, slowly recalling the real history.

Emperor Wanli was one of the few mean and polite emperors in history, but there was one exception, that is Concubine Zheng. Concubine Zheng was used to the Six Palaces. Emperor Wanli always wanted to depose the eldest son and establish the youngest son, Prince Fu, as the crown prince. He ignored his eldest son, Emperor Taichang, and even did not meet for several years. This led to Emperor Taichang being bullied, and eventually led to Emperor Taichang's cowardly and timid personality.

Our protagonist, Emperor Tianqi Zhu Youxiao, grew up in such an environment. He had no care and love since childhood. His biological mother died. Li Xuanshi of the West Palace either beat or scolded him. His father did not even dare to be angry or speak out. What's even more ridiculous is that this emperor had never read a book. When Emperor Tianqi ascended the throne, he was sixteen years old, and Emperor Wanli had only been a month old. When Wanli was reigning, he was indifferent to Emperor Taichang, so he didn't want this grandson.

Of course, there is no good education. He has no teachers and no one cares about him. There are only two people around him, namely Li Jinzhong and Kebaba. These two people who watched Emperor Taichang grow up are the inner support of Emperor Taichang. Kebaba takes care of Emperor Taichang like a mother, and Emperor Taichang also regards her as his mother.

As for Li Jinzhong, he was not only Taichang Emperor's playmate, but also Taichang Emperor's father. He and Kebaba replaced the role who should have been parents. This is also why Taichang later favored these two people so much. Emperor Taichang trusted the two people who were in trouble with him.

Later, for the sake of power, Li Jinzhong killed Emperor Taichang's son. Perhaps no one could have thought of it at this time! Including Li Jinzhong.

But at this time, Ye Xiang was also very confused. Why did the legendary Nine Thousand Years not appear yet? Didn’t it mean that when Emperor Tianqi was young, Li Jinzhong was by his side?

Looking back at Li Jinzhong behind him, Ye Xiang smiled softly and said lightly: "I haven't seen Kebaba for many days. What are she doing these days? Why don't she come to visit this palace?"

Li Jinzhong was becoming more and more careful at this time. In his heart, he seemed to feel that the prince had changed, but he didn't say it, so he could only deal with it carefully. He glanced at the prince with a still-faced face and said with a smile: "Go back to Your Highness, Kebaba felt very guilty about what happened last time. He wanted to stay in seclusion in the Buddhist temple for a month. One is to atone for his sins and the other is to pray for His Highness."

He nodded slowly, Ye Xiang felt a little strange. He really didn't know what to do with Li Jinzhong and Kebaba! Killing directly was definitely not a good idea. Not only would it leave a harsh and ungrateful impression, but also would always have something to use for Li Jinzhong and Ye Xiang. What made Ye Xiang most uneasy was that this eunuch who would be powerful in the world in the future was still unknown at this time! Ye Xiang couldn't help but wonder if he came to this era, he was the dynasty he knew in history.

Ye Xiang has a very intuitive understanding of this dynasty, both political systems and cultural customs, and there are very different things. The ministers in the hall are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, but what to do is that the Dongchang Jinyiwei is more useful, and there are many things that are on the surface. Ye Xiang has thought about a lot these days, and this country is already full of holes. To manage it well, he has to take some shameful measures. How can talents like Li Jinzhong be kept away? Moreover, for so many years in the Ming Dynasty, all the autocratic eunuchs were acquiesced by the emperor. The Ming Dynasty emphasized culture and over military military officials, and the military officers in the court could not check and balance civil and military like other dynasties, and the status of military officers was too low. Without the Dongchang Jinyiwei, those ministers would not have been overwhelmed?

After rectifying the chaotic thoughts, he would turn back to Li Jinzhong and say, "I heard that there are many people with high martial arts skills in the East Factory, but I don't know if it is true or not?"

After looking at the smiling prince, Li Jinzhong didn't know why the prince was suddenly interested in this matter, but he had been coveting Dongchang for a long time, so he naturally knew these things. After pondering for a moment, he spoke: "Go back to Your Highness, yes, Dongchang has many strange people and strange things, and there are also many martial arts masters, and they are all very good at kung fu."

"Oh, it turns out there is. Do you know where to get weapons?" After pondering for a moment, Ye Xiang pretended to be careless. He knew that the palace would not be calm in the next few days, so he would better prepare a weapon, which not only can ensure his safety, but also intimidate others.

Li Jinzhong was stunned at this time. He didn't expect the prince to ask for weapons. What's the best? How could the palace in the palace hold weapons casually? After thinking for a moment, Li Jinzhong said: "Go back to Your Highness, there are weapons in the palace guards, and the Jinyiwei has embroidered spring sword. I wonder what Your Highness wants?"
