Back at Wenhua Hall, Dai Yi said that Zhao Mu and Bai Qingzhi were awake.
Zhu Jianji breathed a sigh of relief.
The Eight Tigers of the Chamberlain almost lost half of their lives. After experiencing this fight, they may have grown somewhat. We don't expect anyone to reach the level of Wang Xuance or Chen Qingzhi, or even a general like Han Shizhong.
Nothing happened for a few days.
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the Forbidden City was peaceful and quiet.
Queen Mother Sun has been bedridden for many days.
The shadow of the candle flickered, and not a single sound could be heard around her. Empress Dowager Sun stood up and sat on the couch, staring blankly at the candle light. Her hair had turned gray, and her whole body no longer looked energetic.
Just like an ordinary old woman.
The palace, which is usually bustling with activity, is eerily deserted.
Cining Palace is dead and has lost its human flavor.
Queen Mother Sun thought of the past.
When she entered the palace at a young age, everyone thought she would be the concubine of Zhu Zhanji, the sage of the Ming Dynasty. Unexpectedly, Hu Shanxiang turned out to be the concubine.
She became a concubine.
She personally experienced the death of Taizong and Renzong.
I also witnessed many eunuchs rushing to various palaces and inviting some childless concubines and palace maids to a side hall. There was a row of small benches in the side hall, and pieces of white silk hanging from the roof.
Sacrifice yourself!
Sixteen of Taizong's martyrs were martyred; five of Renzong's martyrs were born. Concubine Guo, who gave birth to three princes and was second only to Queen Zhang, did not escape the fate of being martyred.
She was afraid.
Fortunately, Hu Shanxiang was never able to give birth to a prince.
And Zhu Qizhen was born.
Became a prince.
She knew she had won.
Xuanzong didn't know, and neither did Queen Mother Zhang. Only she and Hu Shanxiang knew how she won and how many thrilling stories there were in it.
She won and no longer feared martyrdom.
after that……
Queen Mother Sun sighed deeply.
After becoming the Queen Mother, she felt that the first half of her life was full of dangers and the future would be bright and clear, but who knew that the second half of her life would be dark. After the Tumu Fort Incident, no one knew how painful she was.
The son's life and death in Wala are uncertain.
But the country needs a king.
It doesn't matter, just meet Shen as the crown prince immediately, and then Zhu Qiyu ascends the throne.
Who would have thought that Zhu Qiyu would burn down the bridge when he crossed the river?
When his son returned, Zhu Qiyu did not return the throne. He even deposed Jianshen and appointed Zhu Jianji as the crown prince of the East Palace.
Today I even killed Jianshen.
what's next?
If she continues to toss, will Zhu Jianze, Zhu Jianlin and all the children of Zhu Qizhen die one by one until...
Extinction.
She might even not be allowed to enter the Ancestral Temple!
This is probably what the little brat said is a greater fear than death.
Indeed.
Empress Dowager Sun shuddered when she thought of this.
I feel this night is so desolate.
Nothing frightened her more than losing his heir and not being able to enter the Ancestral Temple.
That’s all.
Empress Dowager Sun got up, walked out of the bedroom, looked at the deserted courtyard, and knew that there was someone in the darkness. They were protecting Cining Palace in name, but in fact it was a kind of confinement.
Empress Dowager Sun looked to the east of the imperial city, where Hongqing Palace was.
His eyes were sad.
My son, the world is dark and human power is irreversible. Please take the first step for your mother.
Immediately his eyes turned resentful.
This is too much!
He murmured, "What should we be afraid of when a person is about to die? Zhu Jianji, the Ai family is not what you want. If you have the ability, kill all the heirs of the Ai family so that the Ai family will never enter the Ancestral Temple!"
Bunny might.
But Zhu Qiyu won’t!
Queen Mother Sun shook her head gently.
History is really a cycle.
Zhu Qiyu is similar to Renzong.
Zhu Jianji is the one who resembles Xuanzong.
Immediately, the wrinkles on his face began to relax, and it had nothing to do with her.
I called you softly, Your Majesty, my concubine has come to see you. I haven’t seen you for many years, and I miss you very much. Can you still live in your heart and caress about me? Can you still caress your cheeks under the glazed lamp?
She was a little relieved.
In the dark night, there is a cold light.
Blood flowers bloom.
Just like a wedding dress.
At that moment, Queen Mother Sun seemed to see the woman who walked into the East Palace wearing a wedding dress many years ago.
Hope you feel at ease.
Finally feel at ease.
But today.
…
…
Early in the morning, Zhu Jianji was woken up by Dai Yi and said that he had prepared regular clothes.
There is no need to wear Jiuzhanggun uniform during the small court meeting.
In fact, there are no major holidays, so you can wear regular clothes to attend court meetings or gatherings.
Zhu Jianji turned over and said, "I'm not going!"
Lao Zhu said that he could put an end to Shi Heng's rebellion, and that the Empress Dowager Sun's matter would also be resolved, and that he could lie down and develop again.
Isn’t it delicious to chew on the old?
At this time, Zhu Jianji got up with satisfaction.
Change clothes and wash up.
After breakfast, I went to the study room and saw, oh wow, the imperial master Zhang Peng, who always went to teach on time every day, did not come. Ever since he was allowed to come to Wenhua Hall to study, Zhu Jianshen, who never came, also did not come.
So weird.
With a puzzled look on his face, he asked Dai Yi, "Did I say yesterday that I wouldn't study today?"
Dai Yi shook his head, "You never said that, right?"
Turning around, he asked Zhao Mu, Bai Qingzhi and other six young eunuchs sitting in the corner, "Did His Highness say it?"
Zhao Mu and others shook their heads.
After the riot, Zhao Mu and others who survived also began to accompany him to study.
In this regard, Zhang Peng turned a blind eye. One of them was just a teacher. One more Zhu Jianshen would not have much impact. If there were a group of young eunuchs, he could even say the more the merrier.
The six little eunuchs burst into tears of gratitude.
In the past, they only read military strategies with His Highness Zhu Yongxi, but Zhu Yong said that they listened and there were too many things they didn't understand. Now they are studying with His Highness the Crown Prince, which means that when their knowledge level improves, they can read military strategies by themselves.
This has a further meaning.
They will become Confucian generals!
The premise is that they have the ability to become battlefield generals.
When Zhu Jianji saw this, he was silent, his tail was raised a little, and he smiled wildly, "It doesn't matter, Mr. is not here today, we will study by ourselves. If you don't understand anything, you can come and ask me. I know everything I can say!"
Sample, I have a huge bachelor's degree, I can't teach you?
Before he could even think about it, he saw the old eunuch Qi Dad saying at the door: "Your Highness, His Highness King Yi's maid Wan Zhen'er is outside asking for an audience."
Zhu Jianji was stunned for a moment.
It's really strange.
After sending Wan Zhen'er to Qianxi Palace, Zhu Jianshen never brought her here to study, saying he was afraid of being distracted. Why did Zhu Jianshen not come today, but she came instead.
Nodding, "Xuan!"
He immediately stopped his smile, put on the expressionless appearance of a prince, and assumed a high and mighty posture.
Wan Zhen'er entered and saluted.
Zhu Jianji did not hesitate and looked down at the woman kneeling on the ground.
See her for the second time.
Wan Zhen'er is twenty-six years old this year.
From any point of view, this is an extremely mature woman. She needs a butt, breasts, and legs - otherwise she won't be able to enter the palace.
The facial features...
There is an indescribable feeling.
You may say she is beautiful, but it seems she lacks something to make her look stunning.
You may say it’s not beautiful, but it’s indeed quite pleasing to the eye.
Yeah, just pure appreciation.
Zhu Jianji didn't have any thoughts about Wan Zhen'er. He was over twenty-six years old and three times older than me, so Zhu Jianshen had a soft spot for her.
This kind of thing is still important to me.
A bad idea suddenly appeared in his heart, and he put on his face the expression that men usually have when Zhu Qiyu, an old boy playing with prostitutes, said, "Raise your head, let me have a look."
The tone is playful.
Wan Zhen'er's body trembled, and the hand holding the skirt suddenly tightened.
His Highness the Crown Prince's words... are a bit scary.
How dare you raise your head.
When Dai Yi saw this, he snorted angrily, "You are brave, slave—"
Zhu Jianji raised his hand to stop Dai Yi, but he actually wanted to laugh in his heart.
good.
She is a good woman.
Then just follow Brother Yiyi. If he is Zhao Pu, you will be rich and respected for the rest of your life. This chapter has been completed!
