The heroine Jiangshan
Chapter 107
Chapter 107
Intellectually, Emperor Yuan Qi could also see that this matter was not without doubt.On the contrary, there are too many doubts.
But the emperor at this time is no longer the young emperor who ascended the throne at the age of 17 and fought against the powerful ministers, nor is he the wise monarch who monopolizes hegemony at the age of three or forty.Years and illnesses, and of course years of so-called monasticism, have gradually eroded his body and spirit, turning him into a suspicious, sensitive, violent old man.
No man can tolerate being suspected of wearing a cuckold.The emperor didn't want to believe it, but Zhu Taiyi's confession was so detailed that the emperor became more and more angry when he thought about it.
And the prince has indeed been in and out of the inner palace frequently in the past six months!
Even though he has his entourage at his side every time he goes in and out, it stands to reason that it is impossible for him to have the opportunity to act alone.But there were also several times, after the prince entered the palace to discuss government affairs with him, he had lunch and took a rest in the palace.
In addition, during certain festivals, banquets are often held in the palace, and the prince also has the opportunity to meet Chen Concubine...
After reading the confession made by the imperial doctor Zhu, Emperor Yuan Qi was furious. When he saw the crown prince, he couldn't help being furious. He picked up the inkstone and injured him.
At this moment, the anger in his heart subsided a little, and he calmed down to think about this matter seriously.
"Your Majesty, you must take care of your golden body."
Zhang Yuan is so shrewd. He has been serving the emperor all these years, and he can figure out the general meaning of every subtle movement and expression of the emperor.Although it is impossible to truly grasp the emperor's mind, it is still basically possible to judge the emperor's emotions.
Seeing the emperor's eyebrows drooping, he knew that the emperor's anger was slowly dissipating, so he hurriedly brought another cup of hot tea. "Your Majesty, take a sip of tea, and the servant will give you a smooth ride, okay?"
"Humph!"
Emperor Yuan Qi fell heavily into the dragon chair, both nostrils were still puffing heavily, but at least he took the tea and drank a couple of mouthfuls.
Zhang Yuan patted the emperor's back in a hurry, giving him comfort, I was afraid that the emperor would not be able to hold his breath and pass out.
A great eunuch like Zhang Yuan, although he is powerful now, is a rootless tree after all.Emperor Yuan Qi hated the monopoly of eunuchs - he was not so far-sighted, it was simply that he didn't see people other than himself holding too much power.Therefore, Zhang Yuan looks hot, but in fact he is also very dangerous.
As long as the emperor dies, the new emperor will definitely support his confidants, who will keep him as an old man from the previous dynasty?
Therefore, what Zhang Yuan misses now is two things.For one thing, if the emperor lives a hundred years, he will be able to act like a tiger for a few more years.The second is to build a good relationship with the future emperor. When the time comes, he will retire honorably, leave the palace with the private property accumulated over the years, return to the countryside to become a rich man, and adopt a child from the clan to carry on the family line. This is the most ideal eunuch. It's over.
In order to achieve this highest ideal, Zhang Yuancai risked being cannon fodder by the emperor, and was trying to think about how to excuse the prince.
But Zhang Yuan is very clear-headed, he thinks it is more difficult to excuse the prince, and the risk factor is also high.If you want to sell favors, let the emperor pardon the prince who was punished to kneel in the ice and snow first.
"Your Majesty, it's New Year's Eve today, a great day! You see, there are people coming and going in the palace, and the prince just kneels outside..."
"That evil!"
Emperor Yuan Qi got angry again, and threw the teacup he was drinking on the ground again.Frightened by the emperor's anger again, Zhang Yuan knelt down and begged for forgiveness.
"Grandfather!"
Amidst Zhang Yuan's pleading, Yun Ruochen ran in with a skirt in his hands.
"Plop", Yun Ruochen bowed down in front of Emperor Yuan Qi without hesitation, and kowtowed continuously: "Grandfather, don't be angry with your father! Chen'er kowtows to you on behalf of your father!"
Emperor Yuan Qi didn't have any feelings for his son, he smashed the inkstone as soon as he said it, and didn't think about whether his son would be cold to death if he knelt outside.But he still has a good impression of this granddaughter.
It should be said that in the two generations of descendants, he still has some kindness towards this granddaughter.In the early years, when the princesses were not married, they would also shy away from seeing him in the palace. After they got married and opened the mansion, they seldom went to the palace to pay their respects.After all, Emperor Yuan Qi was such a cruel man...
Only Yun Ruochen, who is both beautiful and intelligent, not only never fears him, but also often takes the initiative to get close to him.Her intimacy is completely different from others' flattery and obscenity.When he was with this granddaughter, Emperor Yuan Qi found that his mood was always relatively relaxed.
Perhaps, this is everyone's fate.
Seeing Yun Ruochen kowtowed in front of him, and after a while his forehead was covered with bruises, Emperor Yuan Qi had no choice but to cough.
"Zhang Yuan, go and help the princess up."
"Yes!"
Zhang Yuanma got up from the ground to help Yun Ruochen, but Yun Ruochen didn't stop kowtowing at all, and was still begging while kowtowing: "Grandfather, please let Father get up first, it's cold outside It's cold, Chen'er is afraid that his father will get sick from the cold..."
"Princess, you get up first..."
"Eunuch Zhang, don't stop me." Yun Ruochen stubbornly pushed away Zhang Yuan's outstretched hand, but still firmly knocked it down.
Emperor Yuan Qi sighed, waved his hand, and said, "All right, all right, Zhang Yuan, let the prince get out."
He was still angry, so he used the word "roll" unceremoniously.Yun Ruochen didn't care about how he chose words and used words, and raised his head overjoyed: "Thank you, Grandpa Huang! Thank you, Grandpa Huang!"
"...You are all dead? Come and help the princess up!"
Emperor Yuan Qi saw that Yun Ruochen's forehead was purple, his eyes were red and swollen, and his breathing was disordered, so he roared angrily again.
The two young eunuchs who were waiting outside the door ran in in a panic, supporting Yun Ruochen from left to right.
Yun Ruochen was so weak that he fainted once, and hurried over to intercede for his father.In addition, he kowtowed dozens of heads firmly, how can he still hold on?As soon as he was lifted up, he immediately fell limp to the ground.
"Hurry up and tell the doctor!"
Emperor Yuan Qi finally revealed a look of anxiety on his face.On the other side, Zhang Yuan walked in with the prince whose legs were trembling and half of his face was bloodstained, but Emperor Yuan Qi turned a blind eye to it.
Fortunately, the prince never expected the emperor's father to have any warmth towards him, but he only focused on Yun Ruochen.Not caring about saluting the emperor, he hastily shouted: "Chen'er!"
Yun Ruochen was already in a half-conscious state, he heard his father's voice in a daze, he didn't know where he came from, and opened his eyes again.
"Father... are you okay..."
She ran all the way just now, although she saw her father kneeling outside the hall from a distance, she couldn't rush over to see his situation first.Only now did she vaguely see blood on her father's forehead, and the wound was frozen by the cold. It seemed that the injury was not serious, and she struggled to go over to see his injury.
"Chen'er, father is fine! The imperial physician is coming soon, just wait!"
At this moment, the prince had forgotten that there was a big Buddha, the emperor's father, in the room, and he was only tied to his daughter, holding her little hand tightly to comfort her.
Feeling the warmth from his father's palm, Yun Ruochen woke up.With my father's original physique, he had to kneel in the snow for an hour, and his head was injured, so it should be difficult for him to hold on.But right now his hands are warm...
Did the chilong jade pendant that she stuffed to him on the spur of the moment play a role?
"Chen'er, why did you come here so stupidly. Don't mess around next time."
The prince looked at the bruises on his daughter's forehead distressedly, seeing that even the corners of her eyes were swollen, he was so sad that he could hardly speak.
Emperor Yuan Qi looked at his son and granddaughter silently with a dark face, and it was rare that he didn't lose his temper.
This son has never received his attention since he was a child.Under the warning of the prophecy that "the two dragons will not meet", Emperor Yuan Qi deliberately avoided meeting his sons.After Yun Zhaochong grew up, the few times he met, his timid and cowardly temperament made Emperor Yuan Qi very dissatisfied.
Otherwise, there would have been no rumors that he favored King Cheng and wanted to pass the throne to King Cheng.At the beginning, among the two sons, Emperor Yuan Qi really favored King Cheng.But considering that King Cheng was not much better than the prince who was still Prince Jing at the time, Emperor Yuan Qi couldn't make up his mind to surpass the third son and make the fourth son the heir of the emperor.
In the past half a year since King Cheng was expelled, the crown prince has looked a lot better.Of course, there is still a long way to go to satisfy Emperor Yuan Qi.
But after the prince refused to enter the palace for the people from the household department to persuade him to spend the new year frugally, and in turn made the big bosses of the household department lose face, the emperor's impression of the prince became a little better.
He had always heard people below mention that the prince and Yun Ruochen had a good relationship with their father and daughter.In fact, to Emperor Yuan Qi, who was born in the emperor's family and grew up amidst many deep palace intrigues, the so-called "emotion between relatives" was very strange to him.
The crown prince and Yun Ruochen were worried about each other, and even rudely forgot about his majesty the emperor... This kind of situation was rare in Emperor Yuanqi's memory.
For no reason, he recalled the past when he was playing with Sister Qiong in the palace of his mother and concubine when he was young.If Miss Qiong hadn't passed away so early...
"sentimental!"
Emperor Yuan Qi couldn't bear the appearance of weakness in himself, he frowned and shouted coldly.
Only then did the prince come to his senses, he could only reluctantly let go of Yun Ruochen's hand, and knelt down respectfully.
"Your Majesty, the imperial physician is here."
Zhang Yuan reported outside the hall.
Emperor Yuan Qi looked at the prince who was kneeling with his head bowed, and Yun Ruochen who was looking at him with pleading eyes, and snorted twice.
"Let's take care of both of you first! No one is allowed to mention what happened today!"
After finishing speaking, he turned coldly and went back to the inner hall, leaving behind the prince, father and daughter's kneeling thanks to Xie En.
Seeing the emperor's back disappear behind the screen, Yun Ruochen breathed a sigh of relief when the golden stars appeared before his eyes again.
"Chen'er!"
In the prince's exclamation, she fell into a deep sleep again.
This time, she didn't get out of her body again.
When she opened her eyes again, a trace of light had penetrated the curtain.
New Year's Eve passed, and the new year began.
At that time, Yun Ruochen could not have foreseen that he would encounter so many difficulties and dangers in this year.
Dear ones, are you having a good holiday?Subscribed yet?Weakly begging la la la~~~
