Number of romantic figures

While Tanchun was thinking about this problem, Baochai was also troubled by it.

It is a good thing for a son to be excellent, but theoretically it should be more gratifying and gratifying if both sons are excellent, but when it comes to oneself, it is not necessarily the case.

The eldest son was awarded the title of King of Chu. He has a calm and generous personality and is very methodical in doing things. He is the most reassuring and satisfying to Baochai.

The second son was awarded the title of King of Wei. Although he was awarded the title two years later than the eldest son, he was more like his father in terms of personality and preferences. He did not like poetry, books and classics since he was a child. He had a good understanding of the study of things and valued them very much, and even liked it more. He ran to the military camp, so people joked that his second son was the prince of the army.

Even his uncle is very optimistic about his second son and supports him to serve in the army more often.

Baochai had not realized it until one day, when the eldest son reminded his second son not to go to the Beijing camp and the frontier army frequently, which resulted in a dispute between the two brothers. Baochai then discovered that the two brothers had a very close relationship. Unknowingly, I became a little unfamiliar and cold.

This made Baochai greatly panicked.

The age difference between the two sons is only four years. The two brothers had a very good relationship since they were young, but unexpectedly, they became estranged when they became adults. When did this happen?

The frightened Baochai asked around to find out why the two brothers were not getting along, but everyone in the palace was vague or refused to tell lies, which also kept Baochai awake at night.

If the relationship between his two biological sons becomes incompatible, Baochai cannot imagine what the rest of his life will be like.

Later, Baochai vaguely learned that the discord between the two brothers began with rumors that the emperor felt that the second son was more like him. Then various rumors began to spread. It was said that the emperor liked the king of Wei more, and Zeng Zuihou The joke was that he would pass the throne to King Wei.

Baochai didn't believe a word of these rumors. How could she not know the temperament of the person next to her?
Don't say such things, even if you have such thoughts, you will never show it to your face.

But he also had to admit that his second son was indeed more like his husband in appearance and personality.

The King of Chu loved reading, and he always ranked among the best in Qingtan Academy, which was later Huaqing University. His poetry and literary attainments were also quite good, and he won the admiration of many girls in the university (Huaqing University began to educate women in the [-]th year of Daguan University). open).

This son, King Wei, had only marginal grades in Huaqing University. He was only good at studying objects and arithmetic. He was a bit reluctant to graduate, which was not the same as his brother's outstanding performance.

However, the King of Wei admired iron-blooded martial arts and volunteered to join the army after graduation. He stayed in the northern military region for three years until his husband ordered him to return to Beijing to get married, and then he came back from the border.

The two sons' diametrically opposite preferences did not affect the relationship between the two brothers at first, but Baochai herself did not understand exactly when the two brothers became estranged and became indifferent.

I just feel that in the past few years, the two brothers have come to the palace to visit him less often. Basically, they each bring their families, and they talk about each other less often.

When the prince turns twelve, he will leave the palace and live alone. Naturally, there will be teachers and other attendants to take care of the prince's study and daily life, so Baochai usually doesn't know about it. It wasn't until the gap between the two brothers was deep that Baochai finally It dawned on him, but it was already too late to bridge the relationship between the two brothers.

In fact, Baochai also knew very well that even if he had known it earlier, as long as it was this kind of thing, sooner or later he would have to "break up" unless the husband made it clear that the prince would only choose among the three eldest sons. As a standard, under such circumstances, the second son felt that he was more like his father and more liked by the emperor, so how could he withdraw from the competition?
But as the eldest son, he can lose to the King of Jin and the King of Qi in the competition, but he must not lose to his own younger brother, the King of Wei, otherwise it will be the biggest failure and humiliation.

In such a strange situation, Baochai didn't know what to do. She wanted to talk to her husband, but she was worried that it would be counterproductive. Could she really advise her husband not to consider King Wei?If the son knew about it that time, wouldn't it make the mother and son turn against each other?

It can be said that Baochai didn't know what to do when faced with such a situation. Sometimes he even wondered whether the two sons' failure in the competition for the crown prince position would lead to reconciliation between the two brothers. As before?

Seeing Xiang Ling walking in hastily, Baochai cheered up: "Xiang Ling, why are you in such a hurry?"

"Your Majesty, the noble concubine will be coming over later."

There is only one concubine in Xiangling's mouth, and that is Baoqin. If it refers to Yingchun, Tanchun, Xiangyun, etc., she will add a word in front of it. If there is only the word "concubine", it must refer to Baoqin.

"What happened again? Or is it about Zhisong?" Baochai felt a headache when Xiangling said this.

Baoqin's son was so unsatisfactory that it was no wonder that the emperor was angry. He has never mentioned his canonization so far.

He was in his early twenties, wandering around the capital city all day long, unable to study, but he was better at raising dogs, playing birds, listening to opera, singing, gambling and eating wine than anyone else.

The year before last, he owed more than 3 taels of gambling debt in a gambling house in central Beijing, which caused a huge fuss. Both the Zongren Mansion and the Metropolitan Procuratorate came to visit, and Baoqin was so angry that he cried for two or three days, and his eyes were swollen from crying.

Baoqin didn't dare to touch her husband's troubles, so it was Zhisong's brother-in-law, the consort Lu Xiangsheng, who stepped in to clear up these bad things.

Not to mention, although the son Baoqin gave birth to was not up to expectations, the daughter he gave birth to, Princess Wugou, married a good husband.

It is said that Lu Xiangsheng, a native of Yixing, was also appointed by the emperor. He was a Jinshi in the ninth year of Daguan. His work style is rigorous and sharp, and he has won the trust of the emperor. He is now the left minister of the Ministry of War. There are even rumors from the outside world that if it were not for the influence of his status as consort, Lu Xiangsheng would probably be the emperor. He has been promoted to Minister of War or Governor of Northern Liaoning Province.

But even so, Lu Xiangsheng's promotion to the second rank will only happen within a year or two, and he is also regarded as a strong contender to be the next cabinet minister.

In the Great China Dynasty, foreign relatives and consorts were not allowed to serve as officials. As long as you entered the official position through the imperial examination based on your ability, you would still be subject to the supervision of the Metropolitan Procuratorate.

It's all because Bao Qin also has a good son-in-law, so Bao Qin won't be too disappointed when Zhisong performs poorly. At least his son-in-law can help him in the future.

"Back to the empress, it seems that the Third Young Master was arrested by the people of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division again, but the prince-in-law is on a tour to Kuwu and Ezo and will not come back until next month, so the noble concubine is anxious..."

Hearing these nonsense again, Baochai suddenly had a headache and said displeased: "Why don't you tell her to go find Tan Yatou and ask Brother Huan to say hello? What's the use of looking for me? ? Do you want me to come forward? "
