sick princess

In the 21st year of Zhaode, Emperor Zhaode was murdered by the Empress Dowager, Concubine Hui, Concubine Zhuang and other concubines, and died unexpectedly.Prince Zhao succeeded to the throne as Emperor Yongjia.

The first thing that Emperor Yongjia did after succeeding to the throne was to honor his mother and queen as empress dowager, and promote his younger sister, Princess Longevity, to Princess Longevity.At the same time, he did not forget his enemies.

The original empress dowager was abolished for murdering Emperor Zhaode, her mother's Shi family was confiscated, and the Taoist priest who offered "elixir" to Emperor Zhaode was executed by Ling Chi.Concubine Hui, Princess Chu and other harem concubines and clan members who recommended Taoist priests to Emperor Zhaode were also deprived of their titles and given three-foot white silk.Concubine Hui's family was copied, all the men were killed, and the women were sent to the teaching workshop.The Chu king's lineage was demoted to common people, and their clan was expelled. Although their situation was not good, it was much better than that of Concubine Hui's mother clan.

Concubine Zhuang and other concubines attached to Concubine Hui, although they did not directly contribute to this matter, they could not escape the crime of not reporting what they knew and helping the emperor to abuse, and were beaten to the end by Emperor Yongjia and thrown into the cold palace.If Emperor Yongjia hadn't just ascended the throne and didn't want to mass murder and cause panic, he didn't want to let these people go.Especially the common man Zhuang, who had harmed his sister at the beginning.

If it wasn't for the fact that the Zhuang family was too powerful to move lightly, and they were unwilling to push the Zhuang family to the biggest enemy at that time, the Zhou family, he would have dealt with the Zhuang family early in the morning.

Right now, Emperor Yongjia could crush Zhuang Shi like an ant, but for some reason, he was not interested.Seeing Zhuang's life under his hands trembling, not even daring to commit suicide in order not to harm the family members outside the palace, wouldn't it be better than killing her with a single knife?

In the beginning, when the Zhuang family entered the palace, it was so beautiful that they didn't put Empress Xu in their eyes, and dared to quarrel with the Zhou family.Now she can only live with these memories, how beautiful she was in the past, it will set off how bleak she is now.On the contrary, Emperor Yongjia's mother and son, who were oppressed at the beginning, are now the most noble existences in this world, and their lives will only get better and better in the future.

In this way, it is enough.

As for the fifth prince, Emperor Yongjia's mother and son really didn't intend to do anything to him.Although the Empress Dowager had caused countless troubles for them when she was alive, and even calculated Baoluo in that way, as the Empress Dowager said, the Fifth Prince was a mediocre person who could not achieve great things. A frightened expression on his face.Taking revenge on such a person would not give any sense of accomplishment to Emperor Yongjia's mother and son.

Fortunately, when Emperor Zhaode was alive, he had already given a command to pity his eighth younger brother's desolation and no one to worship him, and planned to adopt the fifth prince to his eighth younger brother's knee.Now, the Yongjia emperor's son inherits his father's throne, he just needs to fulfill his father's last wish, that's all.

Ever since the Empress Dowager passed away, the fifth prince has been anxious, for fear that Emperor Yongjia would settle accounts with him.Although Emperor Yongjia had no intention in this regard, the Fifth Prince was a fanatic. After learning that Emperor Yongjia decided to adopt him to his real biological father, he suspected that Emperor Yongjia was planning to attack him, and he also suspected that Emperor Yongjia Did he know something, that he made himself sick all the time?

After Emperor Yongjia learned of this, he only ordered a few words: "Send someone to give birth to my fifth brother, and don't let people say that I don't care about brotherhood, and I won't let my brothers go as soon as I ascend the throne. .”

Among his several brothers, the second prince was born by the sinful concubine Zhou Guiren. At that time, he only got the title of earl, titled Ning Shun, the meaning of which can be seen.

However, the newly promoted Uncle Ning Shun and Mrs. Uncle are the kind of people who go with the situation. After getting out of the Zhou family, they kept a low profile and just closed the door to live their own lives.As for what the outsiders say, what does it have to do with them?Baoluo watched coldly, Ning Shunbo and his wife lived better than the Fifth Prince.

Although the fifth prince was adopted under the name of the emperor's uncle, he was granted the title of Duke, and his status was more respected than that of Ning Shunbo and his wife, but without the queen mother, there would be no one to help him plan his life, and he couldn't find it like a headless chicken. The direction, coupled with the worry and fear all day long, naturally it is not as good as Ning Shunbo and his wife.

The third prince has always been the most law-abiding, never against the three of Emperor Yongjia's mother and son, and even helped Emperor Yongjia's mother and son a few small favors.Emperor Yongjia liked him for his knowledge, so he named him King of Anjun.

The fourth prince is good at judging the situation, following the order of his mother, Concubine Feng De, and closely following the footsteps of Emperor Yongjia. Although he is low-key, he also made some contributions in the process of Emperor Yongjia's ascension, and was named Prince Rong. Concubine, the mother and son are quite beautiful, but their attitude towards people and things is the same as before.

The sixth prince was hated by Emperor Yongjia because of his mother, Concubine Hui. Like Uncle Ning Shun, he only got the title of earl.

But the Seventh Prince, everyone originally thought that his biological mother was the nobleman Zhou whom Emperor Yongjia hated the most, and he was once brought out by Emperor Zhaode to fight against Emperor Yongjia. He also won the title of a county king, named Rui, which really made people's jaws drop all over the place.

Now, Empress Dowager Xu moved to the Palace of Compassion, and Emperor Yongjia was supposed to move to Qianyuan Palace, but Emperor Zhaode and the first Empress Dowager died in Qianyuan Palace one after another. Emperor Yongjia chose another Kunze Palace as his residence.

As the most beloved younger sister of Emperor Yongjia, Baoluo was given to live in Zhaoyang Hall by Emperor Yongjia.

During the period of the first emperor, Baoluo was very favored, and anyone who had any good things would be sent to her. Now that Emperor Yongjia succeeded to the throne, the degree of favor for her will only increase.After all, Emperor Yongjia was more dedicated than the first emperor. What he sent to Baoluo was what he liked, not like the first emperor, who gave whatever was expensive, regardless of whether Baoluo liked it or not.

Even Bi Yao, who had been loyally by Baoluo's side all this time, couldn't help sighing that it had only been a few days since Baoluo moved to Zhaoyang Hall, and Zhaoyang Hall was about to be filled by Emperor Yongjia.

Bi Yao used to be Baoluo's personal maid, but now that she is too old to be a court lady, Baoluo promoted her to be the aunt in charge of her own palace. Now, the four big maids around Baoluo are all It was brought out by her hand.

Baoluo looked at the boxes of things brought into his palace, and said to Bi Yao dumbfoundedly: "I have to tell the emperor to stop sending things to this palace. These days, the things he and the queen sent , as much as I can do.”

Seeing Baoluo's distressed look, Bi Yao pursed his lips and smiled: "This is the emperor's love for you."

In the past, there were no conditions, but now, once the conditions are met, Emperor Yongjia would like to pile up all the good things in front of his mother and sister.Baoluo also understood this point.But their brothers and sisters are still in their filial piety after all, it's too conspicuous to always be like this.She didn't want her brother to be impeached by the judge because of her.

"Forget it, I'd better go and talk to Brother Huang in person." Baoluo supported Bi Yao's hand and walked out of Zhaoyang Hall.

Along the way, everyone along the way treated her respectfully, lest she would be neglected in the slightest, this was a treatment that would never have been given in the late emperor's time.

Standing on the high steps, she saw that under the dazzling sunlight, she was covered with a layer of golden vermilion red tiles, and she couldn't help feeling emotional, but in just a few days, everything was indeed different.

"... Your Majesty, now that the Empress Dowager and Princess Changshou have been promoted to the titles, even the emperor's half-brothers have also been entrusted with enfeoffments, but you are still the crown princess, and you have never been promoted to be a queen by the emperor. Take care of yourself."

"The left is just a delay for a while. I am the emperor's first wife. There is no serious fault. The emperor will not easily abolish this palace and appoint someone else. Mother can rest assured."

"All the people who should be sealed are sealed, and you are left alone. If it spreads outside, what will those people think of you?"

"It's no secret that the emperor doesn't like me. It's no big deal if people know about it."

"No, we have to find someone to remind the emperor..."

"I advise my mother not to worry too much. The more you do, the more mistakes you will make. The Fu family did not contribute to the emperor's ascension to the throne. Now that it is beneficial, they desperately cling to the emperor. This palace does not have this. Besides, from what I see, the emperor purposely postponed the conferment this time, maybe it was just to beat us and let us keep our own place."

Baoluo suddenly stood up.This voice was a bit unfamiliar to her, but just based on the content of the words, she could also guess that the two people talking must be Crown Princess Fu and her mother, Mrs. Fu.

At the beginning, when the late emperor was in power, the Fu family looked up to the late emperor everywhere, and they didn't have much contact with the serious in-laws East Palace.It can be said that the Fu family and the East Palace are very unfamiliar.It was those days when the first emperor was in poor health, maybe it was because she was afraid of losing her backing that Mrs. Fu went to the palace more often.

Baoluo neither likes nor dislikes the Fu family and the Crown Princess Fu.The Crown Princess is not really a competent wife to her elder brother, nor is the Fu family a qualified in-law family, but everyone has their own position.The Fu family was chosen by the late emperor, and it was reasonable that they did not want to easily go against the late emperor's wishes and get close to the East Palace.Although these people had never helped her brother, they had never harmed him either.

Baoluo just feels sorry for her elder brother. Obviously, her elder brother is such an excellent person, but because of the suspicion of his father, he married a wife with different dreams in the same bed. He usually has something in his heart, so it is not easy to tell his wife. , It is even more difficult to discuss with his wife.He is not one who likes to take concubines, in addition to his main wife, there are only a few concubines bestowed by the late emperor and queen mother in the mansion, and he probably doesn't even have a caring person.

Thinking about it this way, Baoluo naturally couldn't like the princess.

She didn't want to listen to the conversation between Mrs. Fu and the princess, and turned to leave, but when she left, she stepped on a branch under her feet.This subtle voice was immediately caught by Mrs. Fu: "Who is it?"

The Crown Princess supported the maid's hand, walked up to Baoluo, and said calmly, "It's the imperial sister."

She didn't seem surprised that Baoluo was here.
