Prosperous Glory

Chapter 99

Ah Yuan was sipping soup to fill his stomach, and almost spit out the soup in his mouth when he heard this.

Fat Boy was also holding a small spoon at the side and didn't move.

"The imperial brother's mansion is busy, we will inevitably get in the way here, so let's go back first." The fifth princess picked up A Yuan with one hand and the younger brother with the other. go back to the palace.

As younger siblings, what do you do with your elder brother's housework?

Zheng Wang didn't expect that this group of concubines had been peacefully separated for several years, and now they would make such a mess, he frowned, and got up and said, "I'll take you out." As soon as he finished speaking, he saw people stumbling outside A woman came in. At this time, the woman's face was full of tears, she was very sad, she didn't even look at the other people when she entered the door, she threw herself in front of King Zheng, and shouted with sobs in her mouth, "I beg the prince to make the decision for my sister." !" It was the concubine who had just left, but her face had long since lost the tenderness just now, it was just a sad face, weak and slender, yet another kind of charming.

Concubine Zheng was holding A Yuan to wipe her mouth, seeing the concubine's behavior, a faint smile appeared on her face.

"The rouge doesn't fall off, so it's hard work." A Yuan looked at the concubine with his head, and then smiled with King Zheng.

Really sad, how can there be such a beautiful clean face?Seeing that this is using human life to build a ladder for himself, A Yuan hates this the most. Concubine Kuang Zheng is still there, and a concubine is stinging and scorpion trying to get ahead, what is it?Fearing that King Zheng, a big man, would be coaxed by this little trick of a woman, A Yuan added another word.

The concubine was startled, she looked back at A Yuan, and then her eyes fell on the hands of Concubine Zheng and A Yuan, and she cried, "How can the prince not know the heart of a concubine? The concubine is in her early years, but I can’t spoil the concubine like this!” After finishing speaking, she kowtowed her head in front of King Zheng, who seemed to be thinking coldly, lying on the ground and weeping, “My lord, my sister was serving Those who have passed you, just for this, I beg the lord to be merciful, go to see my sister, and tell her to leave with more peace of mind." After speaking, she burst into tears.

"Emotion Bengong is a villain!" Asking someone to point to his face, A Yuan only sneered, and asked lightly, "Is the person dead?"

The woman who came chasing after her was Princess Zheng's confidant. Seeing this concubine relying on a woman who was about to hang herself to stand out in front of King Zheng, she wished she could do nothing, so she hurriedly replied, "Get rescued in time. It's serious, but it seems that there is no serious problem, the servant has sent someone to invite the imperial doctor, and I will take a good look at it later."

"I'm living such a good life, but I want to hang myself, isn't that giving eye drops to the Second Emperor?" A Yuan looked at the concubine coldly, and said lightly.

"You." Concubine Zheng pulled A Yuan to stop telling her to speak again. Seeing A Yuan looking at her worriedly, she whispered in her ear, "We have to trust your brother, right?" Don't talk about Zheng The king doesn't have this heart now, but he does. There are too many young beauties in the mansion. This concubine is older than her, and she still thinks about her previous love. How stupid is she?
Sure enough, King Zheng looked at the concubine who was crying and grabbed the hem of his clothes in front of him, and after a moment of silence, he said slowly, "So, she hanged herself because she was angry with me. Are you the same?" Seeing that The concubine concubine was startled, and looked up in amazement, but she forgot to shed her tears. The corner of King Zheng's mouth showed a trace of sarcasm, and said softly, "It was back then, when you were willing to enter my house, you should know , being favored and falling out of favor is just a momentary thought, and there is nothing special about others. Even if there are no princesses, there are so many women in the world, it will be a matter of time before you fall out of favor, right?"

"My lord!" The concubine called out, but she still couldn't refute.

She knew early on that she would fall out of favor, but she was not reconciled, but when she was favored, she was left behind by King Zheng, and her love was completely broken.

"This king promised you prosperity and wealth, and to enjoy the rest of your life in peace. I thought it was enough kindness." King Zheng narrowed his eyes, kicked the concubine aside, and said coldly, "Isn't this what you are asking for? When you grow up, do you still want to hope for something else? Tell me," he sat back in the chair slowly without moving his face, supported his head and said slowly, "Who are you going to frame this time? Because The concubine treated her harshly, but she still thinks that Prince Zheng’s mansion is not pleasant, and wants to go to Zhuangzi?” He is not a heartless person, so he only separated these concubines back then, but he still allowed them to live in the mansion. However, this kind of kindness is the root of disaster.

"When the lord has said this, the concubine will speak from her heart." Seeing King Zheng's ruthless eyes on her, the concubine was terrified, gritted her teeth, and said softly with tears in her eyes, "From now on Serving the prince, the concubine's heart is full of the prince. Back then, the prince also liked the concubine, didn't he?" Thinking of the love in the past, she cried, "Who wants to be a concubine? For the prince, outside I won’t be a husband and wife, I will stay in the mansion so that anyone can step on me. Later, when the concubine comes in, I will serve her wholeheartedly, it’s all for the sake of the prince.”

"Could it be that this king is still grateful to you?" The corners of King Zheng's mouth curled up sarcastically.

At this time, another woman came in from outside and said something quickly in Princess Zheng's ear. Princess Zheng's face changed a little, and King Zheng saw that, before he had time to talk to the concubine, he asked, " What's wrong?"

"The side concubine is awake, and now, she actually refers to..." The woman was a little embarrassed, but she still whispered, "I was tricked by someone, and she was hung on the beam and pretended to hang herself, just to beg the prince to see her once. Take pity on her. It's just..." Seeing that the concubine's face was pale and trembling all over, the woman continued to bite the bullet, "It's just that the fake hanging turned out to be a real hanging. Someone wanted her to die. ..." At this point, I saw that King Zheng's face was so gloomy that it was frightening, he couldn't speak, he just looked around, not knowing what to do.

"I didn't expect that there would be such a heroine in my mansion." King Zheng looked down coldly, looked at the pale and flustered concubine, and said in a low voice, "This king has always treated you It’s not that thin, I didn’t realize that you are such a femme fatale!” King Zheng felt chills when he thought about such a woman who was stepping on human life to yearn for favor.He also thought that this time it was the side concubine who was in trouble, if Fenglan accidentally met this woman, King Zheng would only feel a chill coming from behind, and he would feel shuddering.

"My lord, my lord, I am for my lord!" The concubine did not expect to be confessed so easily, and she only hated the person who came earlier, so that the side concubine did not die completely. Fearing that it would be difficult to escape, for a while she would no longer cry as beautifully as before, with rouge all over her face, she could only mournfully say, "I just have a prince in my heart, but you will never come again, I..."

"Back then, your elder brother was the king's bodyguard, and he died outside to protect the king." Zheng Wang said with a cold voice, "For this, I want to treat you kindly. I wanted to prepare a generous meal." The dowry will marry you off, and you will be rich and happy, but you don't want to, so you want to stay in the palace. Seeing your brother's affection, this king will invite you to be concubine concubine, give you dignity, and let you have a good life in the palace Alright. Even if the concubine enters the door later, among the concubines, you are the only one with dignity, and this king feels that you are already worthy of your elder brother."

Concubine Zheng closed her eyes and sighed softly.

If King Zheng hadn't told her the story of the past, how could she tolerate this concubine?But it's all about the affection of the deceased.

The concubine just cried, but still cried out in a low voice, "You treat me with affection, so why did you abandon me?" She said sadly, "The concubine is not trying to compete with the concubine, but just calling me a concubine." Even the concubine would not want to get attached to you, and all the women in the mansion have become a show, the prince and the concubine are so jealous, even you are in the way."

"If you push these things on the princess, you are obviously an idiot." Zheng Wang said lightly, "If the king wants to favor someone, how can the princess stop it? But now, the king is willing to guard the princess. Others don't want to touch him anymore, do you understand?" It was the first time King Zheng said such direct words in ten years, Princess Zheng looked at this man with a rigid face from a distance, and suddenly felt sore in her heart, she turned her head slightly Holding back her tears, she walked over and leaned over to hold King Zheng's hand. Then, in the shocked eyes of the severely beaten concubine, she met King Zheng's eyes and said softly, "My lord is wrong. " She paused, and then said softly, "Now, even if the prince wants to pamper others, even if I kill all the women in the world, I will not allow the prince to go."

Back then, she could still have a calm heart, thinking that she and King Zheng could be as happy as each other, but in the past ten years, this man has kept his promise to be monogamous, and has never wavered again.

This is different from Cheng Wang Fengming's single-mindedness.After all, this person is the one who Ben disapproves of monogamy the most.

Now, Concubine Zheng only feels that her heart is slowly full of him, and she will never be able to return to the peace and tranquility of the past.

Even if she gave everything, she couldn't let go of this man's hand.

"Thank you very much." King Zheng asked her to say a word that actually filled her heart, and she held hands with Princess Zheng's backhand.

The concubine was already stunned, tears streaming down her face slowly, with a look of despair on her face.

"In the palace, there can't be someone as vicious as you." King Zheng looked at her and said slowly, "You have been restless all these years, but the princess has never said anything about you in front of this king. No, but because of this, I can't wrong the princess." He narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "Don't blame me for being cruel, it's just that people who want to kill people may not be able to cause even bigger storms next time." If you have a broken mind, I won't bet on her being soft-hearted." He is a cruel person. He has killed countless political opponents in the previous dynasty, so how could he be soft-hearted in the inner house? At this moment, he said softly, "My lord , give you a white silk, and give you a whole corpse."

"My lord!" This concubine didn't kill anyone at first, even if she was disgusted by King Zheng, she was just sent to Zhuangzi to meditate on her own past. Maybe in the future, when King Zheng and his wife are at odds, they can still think of her benefits and send She took it back.But he didn't expect that King Zheng was going to kill someone, he was so panicked for a moment, he was about to come up to beg for mercy, but he saw that the servant at the side had already come up, held her tightly, gagged her mouth, and pushed her out Head dragging.

Seeing the concubine struggling to turn her head back, Ah Yuan whimpered, closed her eyes, and did not plead for mercy.

Concubine Zheng's ability to tolerate this woman for many years without killing her is already the fate of this restless concubine.

"The ones in the yard should be sent to Zhuangzi too." King Zheng flicked his fingers, and seeing Princess Zheng startled, he couldn't help but raise his head, and there was a slight smile on his serious face, and he raised his eyebrows and said, "Could it be The concubine is afraid that people outside will be called jealous?" If you can drive all the concubines in Prince Zheng's residence to the Zhuangzi and monopolize the residence of Prince Zheng, the nobles in Beijing will say that Princess Zheng is very jealous. , otherwise, why is it so straightforward?

"With such a name, I'm afraid it's too late." Princess Zheng held back the tears in her eyes, but she just covered her mouth and smiled.

Her natural beauty and charm, now under the lamplight, against the swaying precious light, is actually charming, which only made Zheng Wang's heart warm up, and the gloom just now slowly receded, and he was about to discuss with his wife It's time to add a new entrance to the mansion, and not far away, two bear children are watching the movement here, very gossip paparazzi, the small eyes are so wretched, seeing the two people getting closer , The brats laughed fiercely, against their pretty faces, it was indescribably weird.

King Zheng was silent.

The fifth princess who was dragged to death by the bear children wanted to cry but had no tears, just wanted to fly separately in the face of disaster.

King Zheng got up slowly, and walked up to his younger siblings who hadn't reacted to holding hands, and would hit him without saying a word.

After all, A Yuan is a girl, and the situation is getting old, and King Zheng has no time to deal with her.But Fat Boy was still there, and at this time, he told his elder brother to turn over to reveal his little buttocks, he was stunned, and after a while, he suddenly cried, "Mother, mother queen brother is going to kill someone!" My unscrupulous imperial sister also yelled, and before King Zheng could move a single hair, the disturbance was already earth-shattering.

Don't bring the wicked to report first!

His Royal Highness Zheng Wang was furious!
Just as he was about to give these two a good look, King Zheng's eyes suddenly fell on the door, and he saw a fat little dumpling at the door, who was holding the door and poked out his head curiously. Holding the fat boy in a daze, he burst into a toothless smile, threw himself in front of the fat boy, studied the fat boy's state at this time, and then shouted, "Father, bad! "After finishing speaking, he puffed up his little belly and said solemnly, "The emperor is an elder. As a nephew, the emperor is in trouble. The nephew should come forward and replace it with his own body, begging father Let the emperor let go of the emperor's uncle, and come to Lan'er as soon as he responds!"

"Hero!" A Yuan sighed on the sidelines.

"Well said!" Fat Boy desperately patted his fat paws to applaud his older nephew.

Fenglan scratched her little head and smiled embarrassedly, then asked with shining eyes, "My nephew saved the emperor's uncle once, so next time I enter the palace, can I ask my nephew to ride the emperor's horse too?" Uncle’s little wooden horse?” In the Empress Dowager’s Palace, there is a small wooden horse specially designed by A Yuan for Fat Boy, which is very interesting, and Feng Lan has been coveting it for a long time, but Prince Zheng is a shy person, so I am embarrassed to say it.

"Of course!" Fatty only wanted to escape, and he answered without a word.

"Father, hurry up and let go of the uncle!" Facing the fat boy, Feng Lan looked like a junior, but when she met her father, she was the ancestor. At this time, she commanded very imposingly, "Break it!" Uncle’s skin, Lan’er, Lan’er,” he blinked his big eyes, and said in Zheng Wang’s dark face, “Lan’er won’t kiss my father anymore!”

The serious second brother actually still has time to play and kiss his son!A Yuan's eyes widened when he heard the incredible gossip, and he decided decisively that the second brother is a boring man!

King Zheng told this Xiongzi, who was turning his elbow outward, so angry that his liver hurt, and he threw his younger brother to the ground. Seeing that the bears rolled around and ran away hand in hand, Xiongzi was still pissed. He wanted to go out with him, but he gritted his teeth with hatred, turned his head and cursed at Princess Zheng, "You are used to it!"

"I didn't kiss Lan'er." Usually, Prince Zheng is the one who loves children the most, but now the villain is the first to sue, Princess Zheng thinks it is too annoying!

What can King Zheng say?Pointing to the princess, he wanted to leave in a hurry, but he couldn't bear it, so he went out and sent his younger sister and younger brother to the car, and held the brat who was holding on to the car door reluctantly under his arm, and sent the brat away Now, I wanted to teach my son a lesson. After I lowered my head, I met a pair of pitiful eyes. The serious His Royal Highness Zheng Wang coughed seriously. After that, he hugged his son upright, feeling his soft little body. Relying on his shoulders, he slowly revealed a warm smile.

Princess Zheng held up a palace lantern and looked at the father and son in the courtyard, her eyes softened.

This time, is it really just their family?

A Yuan broke the big secret of the second emperor brother, and laughed all the way back to the palace. The fifth princess felt that her little life would not be guaranteed, and she couldn't complain. She cursed the two culprits while sighing weakly. Said, "Calm down."

But she also seemed to know that these were not easy to use, so she moved her mouth, and then, seeing A Yuan nodded without sincerity, she said softly, "Look, this mansion full of wives and concubines actually wants to eat people. "

"Everyone is like this, but it's rare for the second emperor brother to be ruthless." A man, who loves the fragrance and cherishes the jade, knows evil, but with such an affectionate person in front of him, no matter how big a crime is, he can avoid it. Understand.King Zheng was killed by a shot. A Yuan felt that although he was a bit fierce, he was responsible for protecting Princess Zheng.After a pause, she looked at the fifth princess with a smirk and said, "Sister Huang can say this, is this something she has gained?" Seeing that the fifth princess spat with a blushing face, she said with a smile, "It can be seen that we should ask The imperial grandmother married someone."

"Don't you want to?" the fifth princess asked back.

"Think about it," A Yuan hugged the drowsy fat boy nonchalantly. He felt that he was holding a little fat all over his body. Only then did he understand why he was so popular back then. This fat boy really feels good in the hand. Okay, so he said with a smile, "However, we are a calm person, just think about it, don't say it."

With such a proud appearance, the fifth princess couldn't laugh or cry. After a long time, she thought of her side, and then she became excited, and she laughed with A Yuan, "A Luan sent us a lot of things outside the customs. I saw that there were tiger skins in it." And the silver fox fur, it's rare that it's not damaged, it shows that A Luan treats us better."

A Luan left Beijing with her father again back then and became a female general. This time, the sage gave her the status as a partial general under the Marquis of Jingbei. He thought that it was out of order for a woman to be an official, but she was still dismissed by the saint.

"Regardless of men and women, if you have shed blood for the court, you can't let the blood be shed in vain." At that time, the sage used such words, and A Luan was also recorded in the history books of this dynasty.

Ah Yuan was naturally happy for her good friend. She had always admired A Luan, and when she saw that the sage also liked him, she became closer. Over the years, she often exchanged letters. If she had good weapons or rare military books, she would send them to A Luan. A Luan naturally felt such deep thoughts in his heart, so after all these years stationed outside the pass, if he got any rare things, he transported them back to Beijing to give to A Yuan and the Fifth Princess as his own wishes.Thinking back to the whole tiger skin there, the little citizen A Yuan thought that the closest contact he had with a tiger in his previous life was sticking a tiger bone plaster on his waist. roll around.

"Make a quilt for the emperor's grandmother, and then..." A Yuan began to mutter quickly while holding his little hands.

"I just gave mine to my stepmother and concubine." The fifth princess rubbed her hands together, and said with a smile to A Yuan, "The rare thing is those few pieces of silver fox fur, which can hold us back in winter. ?” Shiny silver fox fur is very rare, if it is used to make clothes, isn’t it enviable?Now that the five princesses are grown up and naturally love beauty, their eyes are bright.

Ah Yuan was also happy for a while, and decided that it would be better if Ah Rong was fascinated by the time, so he patted Fat Boy's fleshy body and said, "If you want me to say, Ah Luan is better for us. Seeing the fifth princess nodding, she thought of the sage's decree this year to call Jing Beihou back to Beijing, so she looked forward to it, "A Luan will definitely come back, let's have a good reunion this time."

"Two years ago she married someone, and we only gave gifts, and we don't know what kind of person she is." It should be impossible to make A Luan willing to marry.The fifth princess was also very curious. Seeing A Yuan nodding with a smile, she smiled and said, "It is said that he is a young general from the border, but he should have something special. Calling this general’s family back to Beijing is because he wants everyone to see him.” There was a hint of doubt in her eyes, and she said in a low voice, “It’s just that I don’t know what’s going on, but I always feel that the concubine mother It looks weird."

"How?" A Yuan asked in confusion.

"The former son and the mother turned away the servants and said something to the concubine mother. Since then, the concubine mother has been acting weird."

She often shed tears when she was in a trance, but when she was crying, Concubine De could have a happy smile on her face.
