Chapter 380 Chapter 382: Taking advantage of the situation to promote matters of concern
Lin Zhixiu spent a very comfortable time in Prince Cheng's Mansion.
Li Qirui was taken over by Yuan Jing.
Either she would come home to play with him, or she would be taken into the palace to play with him.
Several wet nurses with backache who had been busy all day suddenly had nothing to do.
Lin Zhixiu was even more relaxed and just dressed up beautifully every day, entertained friends, and had tea by the fire. She also went to the countryside with Li Cheng to walk in the snow and look for plum blossoms. The life was so happy!
When Li Qirui entered the palace, he also brought a group of brats in, and sometimes they would surround the Queen Mother.
Empress Dowager Yan was in charge of the palace affairs and had to entertain them. She was making a lot of noise and was really annoying. The only thing that could comfort her was that Xiao Shiyi was happy.
Xiao Shiyi ran and made trouble with them all day long. He was much better than Gong E. His body recovered quickly and he really looked like a boy.
Empress Zhang, who was imprisoned, still had certain connections in the palace. If nothing else, the emperor's only son was born to her.
Judging from the emperor's attitude, the second son will not have any hair in the short term.
What if...then who has the final say in this world?
Of course the eldest prince!
Who has the final say in this harem?
Of course it’s Queen Zhang!
Therefore, even though she was under house arrest in the palace, many people paid attention to her and received lots of information. Although she had a perverted personality and was very ambitious, she was not completely brainless.
I have "calmed down" these days and reflected on it. I was too reckless before.
She had forgotten how she had bullied and belittled Li Xu. "Now, I am no longer the good-for-nothing King Jin. I have become the emperor! This is incredible!" She whispered mockingly.
Combined with the recent group of children entering the palace, she couldn't help but think too much. The backgrounds of these children are very tough. Compared with the ones around my son, they are much more useful!
What's going on, Queen Mother Yan has an idea? Or does Li Cheng have an idea?
Bah! Dreaming!
But...even if this is the case, I can't help but break out in a cold sweat! This is no joke! With your own intelligence, if you can understand it in time, you must be on guard against subtle changes!
So, he found Li Xiang and gave him some detailed instructions.
Don't tell me, it actually has some results!
Li Xiang understood that his father did not like his mother and did not think much of him.
If he wants to truly do whatever he wants, he has to become the prince! He has to ascend the throne and become the emperor!
So, he calmed down and started studying hard. He spent more time in front of the emperor.
The emperor is not a bad person after all. He suffered so much when he was a child, so how could he despise his son? Although he didn't like Li Xiang in his heart, he did his best to him.
Now, seeing that my son is determined to make progress, I feel that he is older and more sensible after all! I will guide him more attentively.
Although Li Xiang rolled his eyes countless times in his heart, his expression was honest and sincere.
Li Xiang was jealous and resentful of Li Qirui, who had the most fun with his father. When the emperor wasn't paying attention, he glared at him with hatred.
But Li Qirui was careless and did not feel that the eldest brother hated him at all! Instead, he felt that the eldest prince was a bit "strange"!
Yuan Jing was standing beside him, watching calmly, but feeling a little uneasy in his heart. Seeing that the eldest prince was about to turn twelve, it was inevitable that the emperor would establish a prince...
He felt that his thoughts a few days ago were a little funny and a little sad...
Thinking that the unbearable past had not passed and might come back again in the future... he was worried about gains and losses, and his expression was desolate. The emperor had too many things to do, and he did not notice anything wrong with the original scene.
Days passed by, and when the eldest prince was about to turn twelve, another courtier proposed the idea of establishing a prince.
The emperor thought about his son who knew how to work hard and behaved well, and finally nodded. He just said: "Let the Ministry of Etiquette follow the agenda!"
When the news came out, Queen Zhang was in her room, looking up to the sky and smiling... The hard work paid off!
Everything has just begun, oh, those who are watching my jokes, I have a lot of time to settle accounts with you! Hum, Queen Mother Yan, Xiao Shiyi... just pray that the emperor will live a long life!
When Yuan Jing came to Prince Cheng's Mansion to pick up Li Qirui, he lightly talked about this topic with Lin Zhixiu.
Lin Zhixiu sighed, "I heard from the prince that the eldest prince has performed very well in the past year or so. The emperor does not expand the harem, and he only has this son when he is middle-aged... Alas, he is the legitimate son of his original wife... for the sake of the imperial court
I'm afraid it's only a matter of time before we stabilize and establish him."
It's just that I have offended Queen Zhang so much.
In the future, when her son takes over, hehe...he can't escape from settling accounts after the fall!
"I would like to remind the prince, it's time to plan for the feudal lord..." Lin Zhixiu thought about this in her heart and said it out of her mouth.
When Yuan Jing heard this, his expression changed and he endured it for a long time without saying anything.
"Mr. Yuan, from now on, Xiao Rui should go to the palace less often. If you miss him, just come home?!" Lin Zhixiu said.
On this day, Yuan Jing finished his busy work and went to pick up Li Qirui from Queen Mother Yan's place.
He only brought a young eunuch with him. When he came out of the study room and entered the harem, he didn't go far when he saw a group of people coming towards him.
There were twenty or thirty men, surrounded by a chariot carried by four people.
Judging from this aura, there is no doubt that he is the eldest prince who is about to be crowned prince!
Yuan Jing retreated to the side of the road, moved out of the way, and bowed to salute.
The group of people walked up to them in the blink of an eye. There was the sound of people stepping on the chariot, and a group of people stopped.
Although Yuan Jing and Li Xiang always meet in the front study room, their basic relationship pattern is: Yuan Jing has plenty of courtesy, but he will never get in front of Li Xiang.
Li Xiang, on the other hand, treated the original scenery as air.
Yuan Jing bowed and looked down at the ground, and could feel the man staring at him, "I have met His Highness!" he said softly.
Li Xiang sat on the chariot carried by four people and looked at him coldly from a high position, "You stupid slave, why don't you kneel down when you see this prince!"
The young eunuch who followed Yuan Jing quickly replied, "Your Highness, Long live the Lord has given Mr. Yuan the right to exempt himself from kneeling."
The eunuch next to the eldest prince shouted: "How dare you! How dare you, a dog slave, talk to our prince?" He came up and gave the little eunuch a whip. The little eunuch ouched and did not dare to say anything anymore.
The eldest prince was accompanied by his accompanying readers, one of whom said: "You still dare to falsely preach the Holy Will?! You are really guilty and deserve death!"
Yuan Jing couldn't explain his mood at the moment, and said calmly: "Your Highness, Yuan Jing did not falsely convey the holy will. Long Live did indeed say what he said. You should be aware of it in the study room in front of you. However, if you don't admit it..."
He lifted his robe and knelt down.
These days, Li Xiang was praised mercilessly by Empress Zhang and made a lot of promises. Coupled with the flattery from the people around him and the various flatteries from the little palace ladies in the palace, he was already dizzy...
After pretending to be serious for two years, I can finally let it go. At this moment, Tian is the boss and he is the second child, what else should he care about?
He hated Yuan Jing with all his heart, and pointed at him: "You damn eunuch, how dare you talk nonsense in front of this prince? Beat me!"
Yuan Jing knelt there with his head lowered and his hands clenched.
If there is a eunuch, he will come up with a whip.
There was a person beside Li Xiang who was relatively calm and quickly said, "Wait!"
Li Xiang glared at him fiercely, and he quickly said: "Your Highness, these days are very important, don't let things get into trouble! It will not be easy to deal with him! In the future, if his skin is peeled off, it will be Ling Chi or his five horses.
It's all up to you!" The voice was loud and Yuan Jing heard it clearly.
Li Xiang said nothing and looked at Yuan Jing. He had never heard a good word about Yuan Jing from his mother since he was a child, and he had already hated him deeply in his heart.
The father is so indifferent to his only son! So picky! It's probably because of his instigation.
There was nothing I could do against him before. But now, who am I afraid of?
The original scene in front of me, although I was kneeling there, was not humble or afraid at all, and there was a faint smile on my face, which seemed to be sarcastic.
Are you dissatisfied?! That prince will defeat you!
"Hit me, the prince!" He shouted anxiously, pointing at the original scene.
The little eunuch took turns with his whip and slapped him with shame.
Yuan Jing's personal eunuch flew towards him, but failed to block him completely, and the whip still hit Yuan Jing's body.
The little eunuch felt that this was really not possible, so he got up and ran to the front study to call for someone.
Yuan Jing felt like his head, face, and neck were all touched.
It was burning... the pain was unbearable! He had forgotten that being beaten hurt so much...
Haha... I couldn't help but smile bitterly. What did this little beating mean to me at that time?
I am really... getting old! Life is getting better, and my endurance is low.
I can't bear it in my heart or body!
But he didn't beg for mercy like he did when he was a child. Instead, he looked up at the eldest prince with a mocking smile: If you can, beat me to death!
I want to see what he will choose then!?
When Li Xiang saw his eyes, he became even more angry!
"How dare you look at me like this?! Someone, let this prince use his tricks!"
Some time ago, when he left the palace to go to his teacher's house, he secretly ran on the street to play, and also went to a teahouse to listen to a book. He found it very interesting. How enjoyable is it to say this?!
Ugly Baji had an evil smile on his face and pointed at the original scene.
"Yes!" Someone pulled out a knife from his waist and came over.
Yuan Jing didn't struggle and just looked at the eldest prince with a smile.
This simply made the eldest prince mad, "Put this prince down! I want to do it myself!"
The eunuch quickly put him down. He grabbed the knife from the man next to him and said, "You guys grab him!"
Immediately two or three eunuchs pulled Yuan Jing away.
Li Xiang's face was solemn...
He only used a whip to whip the disobedient attendants and companions. He never gouged out anyone's eyes... Holding the knife in his hand, I thought that the scene should be scary, and I felt a little regretful...
But once the words were spoken, it was hard to take them back. I couldn’t help but complain: This bitch slave really gave me the knife...
I thought, if it really doesn't work, just make some gestures, make it bleed, and then have someone take over.
He took two steps forward and raised the knife...
But at this moment, there was only the sound of running, and a small figure ran over quickly and bumped into Li Xiang's side. He let out an ouch and was knocked a few steps away before falling down.
The knife in his hand also fell to the ground.
"Ah?!" Everyone screamed, but no one reacted.
As a result, the little man didn't stop, and jumped directly on the eldest prince, hugged his head with his two short arms, and started mouthing.
He bit his ear directly!
"Ah?!" Li Xiang screamed.
At this time, the people below realized what was happening and rushed over to pull Li Qirui away.
"open!"
"Relax!" everyone shouted.
Yuan Jing looked at him and said, "Brother Rui!" He became anxious, stood up and rushed over, hitting and pulling Li Qirui hard.
After a few ouch, the three people were knocked down, but someone else rushed up and pulled Li Qirui hard.
Li Qirui is a tortoise, he won't let go when he bites him, and he won't be afraid of being pulled or pinched!
Li Xiang screamed even louder, "My ears! Ah?! You are a dog, you are a dog!"
"Let go!" "Ouch!"
"Open your mouth!" "Ah!"
Several people rushed up and started fighting with Yuan Jing.
"Don't pull, don't pull!" Someone was holding Li Qirui and pulling him out, but he didn't let go. Li Xiang already felt that he was bleeding and was afraid that his ear would be bitten off, so he screamed at the top of his lungs.
He shouted again, "Choke him to death, choke him to death! Choke him to death!"
The real person reached out and reached for the child's neck. As a result, another little person rushed up and bit his hand.
"..." This time, he could see clearly that it was Prince Yun. "Stop... your hands!" He was biting someone and still talking.
The eunuch didn't dare to hit him, so he had to persuade him: "Oh, Prince Yun, please step aside quickly and don't touch you!"
"Prince Yun, you are talking nonsense!"
Xiao Shiyi didn't make a sound or let go, biting the man's hand until it bled.
"Stop! Stop everyone!"
It turned out that people around Queen Mother Yan rushed over.
He pulled everyone away and Yuan Jing also stopped.
In the end, only Li Qirui bit the eldest prince's ear and refused to let go! Blood rubbed on their faces and dripped on the ground...
The eldest prince was scared to death. He knew that if his ears were gone, his throne would be gone. "Let go, let go. I will never scold you again. Please let go. Wuwu..."
..." Begging for mercy.
A lot of eunuchs were so frightened that they knelt on the ground, "Little ancestor, please stop talking, please." If the eldest prince had done anything wrong, it is estimated that none of them would survive.
After a while, the emperor arrived, and so did Queen Mother Yan.
Empress Zhang came with all the runners. When she got there, she found her son lying on the ground with a small man lying on his body. When she took a closer look, it turned out to be Li Qirui, biting... her son's ear.
She went crazy. She howled and rushed forward, "You bastard! Let me go!" and slapped Li Qirui on the back of the head.
"How outrageous!" The Emperor and Queen Mother Yan opened their mouths at the same time.
But Empress Zhang went crazy, no one cared about her, and she wanted to take action again. She saw a figure flash, and she stopped immediately. She couldn't move, and there was a heartbreaking pain in her arm, "Ah!"
"Take the queen back! Xiaojiu, tell Brother Rui to open your mouth." The emperor saw the original scene, his clothes were messy, there was blood on his head and face, and there were blood marks on his neck.
I really want to kill all these twenty people to vent my anger!
Empress Zhang was jumping there, screaming and saying something, but no one listened at all. After a few words, the palace maid pulled her back, but she refused to leave. She struggled and her jewelry fell to the floor.
Yuan Jing came close to Li Qirui and said softly: "Brother Rui, it's okay! It's okay, come on, let go...obey me...this blood stinks. If you swallow it, your stomach will hurt. It will hurt."
You have to take medicine. That black soup is very bitter. Come on, let go and let's go."
Li Qirui then let go of his mouth. His mouth and face were covered in blood, and his big black eyes were still glaring at Li Xiang fiercely.
The way Yuan Jing looked at him, his nose felt sore and his eyes were red.
Li Xiang also had blood on his face and his ears! He quickly touched them and they were still there! Don’t worry...
Seeing his mother crying and fussing there, and his father also there, he felt emboldened, jumped up, pointed at Li Qirui and cursed: "You little beast, I am going to cut you into pieces with a thousand knives and destroy the nine tribes!"
