It’s Better to be the Empress Dowager

Chapter 19 Akakari

With Zhao Chengjun’s words, Mrs. Lu was determined. In the final analysis, the Lu family got married with Prince Jing, not with Zhao Zixun. Marriage is good for having two surnames. As long as Zhao Chengjun recognizes Lu Yufei’s position in the house, no matter how many concubines Zhao Zi asks for or which concubine he favors, there is no threat to Lu Yufei.

This is enough. Mrs. Lu is a standard official’s wife. In her eyes, any man who doesn’t mess around, as long as he has a stable position in the front office, just turn a blind eye to other things. Anyway, the concubine’s room is just a thing, even if you give birth to a child, you have to call Lu Yufei’s mother.

What is the important thing about which maidservant the son of the world has his heart for? Mrs. Lu immediately smiled and said, “Thank you, King Jing. King Jing is well aware of his details and distinguishes between public and private, so the concubine is naturally trustworthy.”

Lu Yufei has been dumbfounded since his son saved his life. At this moment, at the reminder of his mother, he reacted slowly and saluted King Jing: “Thank you, King Jing.”

Zhao Chengjun was fed up with this farce. He didn’t want to watch it anymore. He said indifferently: “Mrs. Lu has been delayed a lot of time today. After that, the king will send someone to apologize. Tongxiu, send Mrs. Lu and Miss Lu out of the house.”

Tongxiu answered: “Yes.”

Mrs. Lu was about to say something, Zhao Chengjun had already expected it, and said, “As for Miss Lu San, she is ill and it is not convenient to move, so she should stay in the palace to recuperate. When Miss San’s condition improves, the king will send someone to send it immediately. Go back to Lu’s house. Mrs. Lu can rest assured.”

Mrs. Lu breathed a sigh of relief and said: “The concubine has thanked King Jing. The concubine retires.”

Mrs. Lu knew that King Jing was in a bad mood now, and she didn’t want to be bored anymore, and soon took Lu Yufei away. After the Lu family left, only the people from the Jing Palace were left in the house, and everyone inside and outside was obviously tense.

The mountain rain was about to come and the wind filled the building, everyone knew that King Jing was very angry, and everyone was waiting for the moment the guillotine fell. However, Zhao Chengjun’s face was calm. He picked up the tea cup and slowly skimmed the tea foam on the surface of the water with the lid.

The tea lid slid across the edge of the cup, making a slight crashing sound, and it fell in everyone’s ears, which was more terrifying than the sound of sharpening a knife. Master Tang said that he might as well get angry, which is far more terrifying than serving the Queen Mother Yao.

Zhao Chengjun suddenly closed the lid of the cup and let out a soft “click”. Zhao Zixun couldn’t bear it anymore, and knelt heavily on the ground, saying: “My son is convicted, please father punish me.”

“Oh?” Zhao Chengjun put down the tea cup and looked at Zhao Zixun calmly, “Where is your crime?”

Zhao Zixun lowered his head and said: “The minister should not save people, should not disobey his father, should not leave in front of the future concubine, holding another woman.”

When it was over, Master Tang sighed silently. Based on what she had learned about King Jing in the past few days, she knew that Zhao Zixun had stabbed a big basket.

Zhao Chengjun looked at Zhao Zixun quietly, and suddenly smiled: “Okay. I won’t let you save people. So, this king did evil?”

Liu Ji, these old people who have served for many years, knew it was bad, and hurriedly said: “The prince calms down his anger, the son is young and ignorant…”

Zhao Chengjun didn’t speak, but just glanced at Liu Ji, but Liu Ji suddenly fell silent and didn’t dare to interrupt again. Zhao Zixun’s words just now were based on his energy, but now that reason has overwhelmed his emotions, Zhao Zixun finally realized what he had done.

Is he crazy, dare to taunt his father?

Zhao Zixun quickly remedied: “My father calmed down his anger, but his son was incapable of saying a word. His father was so grateful for his son, and his son was so grateful that he didn’t dare to blame his father. The son is not filial, and he is so wrong. Please my father to condemn him.”

“It’s a good thing to save people, how could it be wrong.” Zhao Chengjun said lightly, “You are not wrong, but the woman who doesn’t know the so-called wrong. Come, pull her down and die.”

This time Tang Shishi was also taken aback, Zhao Chengjun actually wanted to kill Zhou Shunhua? They were sent by the Queen Mother, is he crazy?

The nine beauties including Master Tang also hurriedly knelt down. Ren Yujun was so frightened that he hurriedly said: “The prince calmed down. I was sent by the queen mother to serve the prince. If there is something wrong, it should be beaten and scolded, but the prince thought that sister Zhou committed the first crime. For good reason, please forgive her this time. After all, Sister Zhou is the daughter of Cai Guogong’s official residence. She has been held in her hand by her family since she was a child. If the news comes back to Jinling, how sad Guogong Cai should be.”

Ren Yujun first moved out of the Queen Mother Yao, and later out of Cai Guogong Mansion, but Zhao Chengjun did not move. He tapped his fingers on the armrests, smiled, and said, “Gonghou Xungui is in the same spirit, and it is true. Why, do you want to accompany her?”

Ren Yujun was so frightened that he couldn’t speak for a while. Master Tang hummed inwardly, and silently began to think about whether the heroine would be able to take the scene if she dies.

Zhao Zixun walked two steps on his knees and kowtow to Zhao Chengjun: “Father calmed down his anger, and all the mistakes were made by his son. It’s all because he hesitated and had nothing to do with the woman. Zhou Shunhua’s punishment was borne by the son. ”

Zhao Zixun knew very well that Zhao Chengjun didn’t really want to kill Zhou Shunhua, it was Zhao Zixun who he wanted to beat. However, if Zhao Zixun can’t come out and say this, then Zhou Shunhua is really dead.

Zhao Zixun smiled bitterly in his heart. King Jing is really a very arbitrary person, and he does not allow anyone to disobey him. Zhao Zixun seems to be free, but in fact everything has to follow the trajectory that King Jing expected. Zhao Zixun tried to resist the imperial concubine selected by King Jing. As soon as he showed signs, King Jing put the price in front of him.

Either obedient or Zhou Shunhua died.

Zhao Zixun flinched, admitted his mistake obediently, and acquiesced to the marriage arranged by King Jing. After Zhao Zixun said these words, Zhao Chengjun did not continue to embarrass Zhou Shunhua, but said: “She is your woman, you are willing to take it on her behalf, and the king will fulfill you. She made a big mistake and should have been killed. , But you are the son of this king, and this king can’t kill you with a stick, then reduce the responsibility to sixty and execute it immediately. Liu Ji, take him down.”

Liu Ji knew that Zhao Chengjun’s decision would never be changed, and he did not dare to persuade him again, so he hurriedly called a thousand and motioned for the son to follow him. When Liu Ji and Zhao Zixun walked to the door, Zhao Chengjun’s voice sounded from behind unhurriedly: “This king’s patience is limited. You’d better not play tricks. If a stick is not true, this king will come personally.”

This time Liu Ji didn’t dare to have any luck, turned around and respectfully said: “No.”

After Liu Ji and the first son left, the rest of the house was all female relatives, who were more and more trembling. Especially these beauties, they know that King Jing is famous and famous for his military service. They also know that King Jing is a ruthless person, and even the queen mother is very jealous of King Jing. But knowing that knowing that everyone feels that they are special without personal experience.

They relied on their beauty. When they looked at Zhao Chengjun, they always felt that he was a man first, followed by King Northwest Jing.

But today’s appearance completely shattered the superiority of the beauties. They realized very clearly that King Jing didn’t care about them at all, and beauty was useless in front of him. Now they are alive because King Jing is too lazy to take care of them. Once they cross that line, such as Zhou Shunhua, they will be given to death immediately.

Even the most pretentious Ji Xinxian among the beauties was quiet. Zhao Chengjun sat on the head, silently watching them. Zhongmei was frightened, and many people had already begun to tremble. Zhao Chengjun finally moved and said slowly: “This king doesn’t like noise, especially trouble. If anyone is clever, let alone your family, it is Queen Mother Yao. Standing in front of this king personally can’t protect you, you know?”

Lu Yuji calculated, is Zhou Shunhua not calculating? Zhao Chengjun could tolerate their little trouble before, but if he dares to challenge his authority, then he can’t be blamed for his cruelty.

Zhongmei was trembling with fright, and made a promise: “Yes.”

Zhao Chengjun was too lazy to pay attention to these women, without looking at them, he said casually: “Go out.”

The beauties are so busy that they should retire quickly. Master Tang originally left with everyone. When she left the house, she thought for a long time, then bit the bullet and slipped back, quietly sticking herself to the door.

Teacher Tang tried to narrow her sense of existence. When she moved quietly, Zhao Chengjun raised her eyes, her eyes calm and cold: “Why, you think you look the best, this king is reluctant to kill you?”

“No.” Master Tang squeezed by the door, crying without tears, “Master, didn’t you say, let me serve by your side and you are not allowed to go away.”

Zhao Chengjun looked at her for a long time and asked, “When did this king say such things?”

Teacher Tang was all dumbfounded by the question: “What you said, let me wait for the pen and ink in the study. I can’t leave by myself before you leave.”

Zhao Chengjun looked at Master Tang. He knew Master Tang didn’t have the guts to lie. She really understood that. Zhao Chengjun did not move, but Tang Shishi could only be watched by him in fear. After a while, she couldn’t help it anymore, and whispered: “Lord?”

Zhao Chengjun stood up and strode out. As he walked through the door, he said quickly: “Go back and copy the book.”

How could this be stupid.

In the middle of the night, Liu Ji turned on the lamp and placed it on Zhao Chengjun’s table with his hands lightly: “Master, it’s late at night, you should rest.”

“she left?”

“Yes. Girl Tang seemed to be very scared today, she stubbornly held her sleepy, she dared to leave after copying a whole book.”

Zhao Chengjun laughed extremely softly. He put down his pen and glanced at Liu Ji indifferently. “You said those things to her?”

The cold sweat behind Liu Ji suddenly seeped out. He smiled cautiously and said: “It is the old slave who makes his own claim, and I hope His Highness will forgive him. The old slave only saw that there was no woman with His Highness for many years, so it was easy to come. Just thinking about testing her. If your Highness is not happy, the old slave will send her away.”

Liu Ji secretly looked at Zhao Chengjun’s face while talking. How strong Liu Ji’s ability to observe words and expressions was. Zhao Chengjun didn’t veto it, which meant that he could keep it. Liu Ji quietly breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that he was on the right step.

Although the risk is dangerous, he is also for the good of His Highness.

Liu Ji took the time during the trial and boldly continued: “His Royal Highness, there will be such a big omission in the garden today. It is not only the negligence of the people below, but also because there is no mistress in the palace. Although Mrs. Xi has overstepped, but She was right in saying that there should be a princess in the palace. No matter how capable the concubine is, she will be a generation shorter. You can’t keep marrying a wife.”

Zhao Chengjun still didn’t even think about it, and said: “The king’s life is very good now, why do you have to put a person by your side, it is nothing to trouble. This king has many things to arrange, and there is no time to spend time with them.”

This… Liu Ji knows that his Highness has been a hard-headed man since he was a child. Liu Ji didn’t dare to persuade him anymore, but only hoped that the Lord would figure it out. Liu Ji changed the subject and whispered: “His Royal Highness, since you are for the good of the son, why do you say so absolutely today? After receiving the punishment, the son couldn’t get up, and was finally carried back. Elder Yi Look at him, although he doesn’t say anything, he still has a grudge against you in his heart.”

Speaking of Zhao Zixun, Zhao Chengjun rarely showed a headache. Zhao Chengjun squeezed his eyebrows and said: “Since he entered the palace, this king has never neglected his upbringing, but he is still a bit biased. This king is not strict with him now. How will he support him in the future? Prince Jing, how do you fight those old foxes in the court?”

Liu Ji is not easy to say when it comes to the elder son. Liu Ji is an outsider. It is obvious that he actually wants to say that his adopted son is not the same as his biological son.

No matter how strict or ruthless the biological son is, it doesn’t matter, but the adopted son may not be. The **** of blood cannot be smoothed out by the grace of nurturing.

But Liu Ji couldn’t say these words, he was just a slave, and he would die once such words were found out. Liu Jiyan remained silent, and hoped that Zhao Chengjun would soon marry a princess, even a concubine, anyway, he would give birth to a true heir as soon as possible.

With his own son, Zhao Chengjun will understand the difference.

Liu Ji naturally thought of Teacher Tang. From the current situation, this is the closest woman to King Jing, and Liu Ji still has to find a way to create opportunities for Tang Shishi. As for her meticulous work, it really doesn’t matter. As long as King Jing opens his mind, Master Tang’s task will be completed, and when the time comes, it will be fine to kill people.

The study was brightly lit, and the rest of the palace was completely dark. This little light fell on the huge Jing Wang Mansion, and it became more silent and depressed.

Since King Jing reorganized the palace, he has been in peace for a while. Zhao Zixun silently recovers from his injuries, Zhou Shunhua stays at home to recover from his illness, even Tang Shishi is exceptionally well-behaved, copying books diligently.

Summer is gradually coming to an end, and after a few consecutive rains, the weather suddenly turns cooler. At this time, a news spread quickly in the Jing Palace. It is said that King Anji Timur, King of Zhongshun, invited King Jing to hunt. King Jing has already agreed and will go to the paddock for autumn hunting in a few days.

Master Tang opened the catalog and looked at the long autumn hunting plot above, knowing that his last chance to comeback had come.
