Chapter 25: .Deposed Prince 8
On the second day, He Dongchen took Shen Weining back to Shen's house. Everyone in the Shen family was flattered and hurriedly opened the front door to welcome the guests.
The Shen family has a simple population, the old man Shen, father Shen and mother Shen, the eldest son Shen Weize, and the eldest daughter-in-law Liu. The Shen family got rich late, and the old man Shen was still planing food in the fields when he was young. Later, he gave birth to Father Shen, a Wenqu star. He has a son and a daughter, and now the eldest son, Shen Wei, has also passed the Jinshi examination, realizing a double Jinshi, father and son double Jinshi, and people will look at him when he goes out. Following this trend, the future of the Shen family is limitless.
The old man of the Shen family is nearly seventy years old, with a strong body. He grows vegetables in the garden in his spare time.
"The Shen family has a small family, and the son is a man who takes the imperial examination. He doesn't want to be rich and powerful, but only wants to be safe."
He Dongchen understood the meaning of these words, and said with a smile: "Now I am also an idle prince, and I will leave Beijing to hide in the palace in a few days, and those right and wrong have nothing to do with me."
When the Shen family heard this, not only were they not disappointed, but they breathed a sigh of relief. If King Jing wanted to fight for that position, they would be terrified. Since ancient times, it is no small matter to win the heir, and it would be the life of the whole family.
Think about the Marquis of Wu'an's Mansion that was just destroyed, the Marquis' Mansion of the Founding Kingdom would be gone if they said nothing, and their Shen family got involved without even splashing a splash.
After the matter was discussed, the atmosphere relaxed. The Shen family were all scholars, full of talents, not overly flattering, nor pretentious, and they were very comfortable to get along with.
The front yard is harmonious, and the atmosphere in the back yard is also good. Shen Weining reported the good news but not the bad news, and suppressed Nanny Qin, and did not tell about the consummation of the house. After all, it was related to King Jing's body and a man's dignity. It would not be nice to spread the word.
As soon as Wu Shi heard that her daughter had won the housekeeping rights, she showed off her face, and continued to say the same old saying: "I will spread the branches and leaves for the prince as soon as possible. If you have a son and a half daughter, you will be able to rely on them for the rest of your life. Women, the most important thing is children. Even if you make a mistake, you will be punished lightly for the sake of the child."
Shen Weining nodded shyly in response, but he was actually worried.
I had lunch at Shen's house and returned home when the sun was about to set.
In the carriage, Shen Weining watched the Shen family's gate getting smaller and smaller, and completely disappeared when turning the corner, so he reluctantly lowered the curtain.
He Dongchen saw that the end of her eyes were red, and comforted her: "We will visit father-in-law and mother-in-law when we come back from the palace."
When Shen Weining heard this, she had hope in her heart, and she wasn't too sad. Just as she was about to speak, the carriage shook twice suddenly. She let out an exclamation, and threw herself directly into He Dongchen's arms. Listening to the strong heartbeat in her ear, Xiao The face is flushed, which is really cute.
He Dongchen chuckled twice, and straightened the man upright. The coachman anxiously explained in front of him: "My lord, an old man popped out of nowhere just now, almost startled the horse."
"It's fine as long as people are fine." He Dongchen replied.
"It's okay, it's gone."
The carriage moved slowly, and continued to move forward. Passers-by around saw the family emblem on the carriage and whispered, isn't this the carriage of the abandoned Prince Jing's mansion? After a little inquiring, oh, it turned out that he was accompanying the side concubine to Guining.
Everyone tutted and said, "King Jing is quite good at loving people."
"That's right, I don't know what the former Marquis of Wu'an's mansion was messing around with."
"Who knows, maybe I'm used to having a good life."
A shopping woman passed by, listened to her ears, her expression was very rich, she hesitated to speak, and finally she regretted her life, she left silently with a vegetable basket, turned around and walked to a remote mansion, and entered through the corner door.
Busily preparing meals, they entered the inner courtyard with a food box. Just after walking a few steps, they heard a commotion inside. The female voice was sharp and the male voice was impatient, and there was also the sound of broken bottles and cans. The women could hear it. I got used to it, without blinking, blessed my body without any sincerity, put the food box in my hand on the table, and set up the dishes on my own.
"Master and Madam, it's time for dinner."
As soon as these words came out, Tian Weirong, who was still yelling at He Jingwen's collar, immediately turned her head and scolded: "Who is the madam! I haven't left the cabinet yet! I am the golden branch and jade leaf of the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion, and the future princess!"
He Jingwen sneered, raised his hand and waved her away, and sarcastically said while arranging his clothes: "What dream did you have in the daytime? Didn't you destroy the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion? And the position of Crown Princess, heh, you didn't want it back then. Come and tell me your heart and soul."
"Shut up!" Tian Weirong screamed, picked up the food on the table and threw it at He Jingwen, "It's not because you are useless! The position of prince is already vacant, and you can still turn yourself into a common man! A wimp! A wimp!"
Tian Weirong now has 11 million regrets! She never expected that He Jingwen, who dared to marry the prince in his previous life, would be so useless! waste! Rubbish! The prince has been knocked down, and he can't take the throne yet! Bring yourself and your family into trouble. Thinking of her father and three older brothers who had already died, Tian Weirong burst into tears, heartbroken.
"Yes, I'm useless, go find your useful prince brother!" He Jingwen was thrown all over his body, embarrassed, and angrily shook his sleeves and left.
Tian Weirong let out a wow, and leaned against the door, crying out of breath. Why was she blind at the beginning and thought that He Jingwen would definitely become a big deal?
In other words, why did she think that the Marquis of Wu'an was omnipotent, that it would be easy to change a prince...
Fortunately, the woman who worked so hard to prepare a table of meals also felt unlucky. While cleaning up, she said angrily: "Now I know that I regret it, why did I go early? Today King Jing accompanied the side concubine to return to Ning, loving and loving, everyone envy Woolen cloth."
"Side concubine? What side concubine!?" Tian Weirong grabbed the woman and asked anxiously, her expression frantic.
The woman threw her away unceremoniously, gloating and said: "Prince Jing's side concubine, Shen Hanlin's daughter."
Tian Weirong's mind froze for a moment, the prince's elder brother has a side concubine, she is Shen Hanlin's daughter! She racked her brains and recalled thousands of things, only to find a figure in her memory, with an average appearance, not even half as good as her! Why can this kind of woman marry the prince brother!
Tian Weirong was dissatisfied, unwilling, crying and laughing, the daughter of the Hou Mansion, who used to be envied by everyone in the capital, looked like a crazy woman.
The woman shook her head and sighed, packed up her things and left, leaving the room full of crying and laughter.
On the second day, He Dongchen entered the palace to bid farewell to the old emperor, and at the same time sent Yangyuan Pills and a specially prepared antidote. The combination of the two kinds of elixir, as long as he was not killed on the spot with an arrow piercing his heart, he could save his life.
He Dongchen hoped that the old emperor could live a long life. It would be best to wait for his son to be born and help raise the child. Then, as a leisurely prince, he would rely on his father when he was young and his son when he was old, and live happily ever after.
What's so good about being an emperor, he's exhausted, he wants to be the Supreme Emperor!
The old emperor put away the pill carefully, hesitated, and finally said coyly: "I feel powerless these days..."
He Dongchen quietly waited for the next sentence.
The old emperor clenched his fist and put it in front of his mouth, coughed weakly, and said euphemistically: "The beauties in the harem..."
He Dongchen understood.
Then there was silence.
This unscrupulous old emperor actually asked his son to take supplement pills!
He Dongchen said with a wooden face, "No."
How could he engage in that kind of medicine.
He doesn't need it.
The old emperor was a little disappointed. He didn't have the nerve to ask for a custom order. He waved his hand and said, "If there is anything missing in the palace, just ask someone to come back and pick it up."
"Thank you, father." He Dongchen finished speaking, and then said, "I want to promote Shen to be a concubine when she gives birth to the emperor's grandson."
"Nonsense!" The old emperor raised his eyebrows and spoke harshly, "Prince, you must not be fooled by beauty!"
In order not to let the side concubine become bigger and the son's backyard was unbalanced, the old emperor took great pains and deliberately chose a daughter from a noble family, who was well-educated and well-behaved. Unexpectedly, this Shen family was very powerful. It's over!
What a disaster! The old emperor regretted it.
He Dongchen explained unhurriedly: "After Tian Weirong's incident, I can see that women are disasters, and every one of them is enough, and a few more can't kill me. Shen's family is small, and they have shallow knowledge so they can be controlled. ..."
The old emperor listened, his anger dissipated, and he turned to look at his son worriedly, pondered for a moment, and tried to appease him: "Actually, women are like that, and there is no need to be a shadow of a snake."
He Dongchen had a determined face, women are disasters!
And he swore: "If it wasn't for the sake of the heirs, I wouldn't even want to touch Mrs. Shen!"
The old emperor was speechless, and waved his hand in a bad mood, telling his bad son to go away.
He Dongchen left the palace with a bunch of rewards. On the way, I met several princes and princes who came to brush up the old emperor's favor.
"Brother, why don't you bring us with you when you enter the palace?" The younger thirteenth prince stared at the rewards with a sour tone.
The deposed prince of other people's family is miserable, and his life is in danger. Their elder brother is fine, after being deposed, he is handsome and unrestrained, like a normal person.
He Dongchen glanced at them, and said calmly: "What are you talking about with you?"
The princes and princes choked for a moment, looking at He Dongchen with strange eyes.
Could it be that after his family betrayed his fiancée Hong Xing and cheated out of the relationship, their gentle and gentle elder brother broke his cans? Anyone with a little background in Beijing knows that the original princess was sent to the original Huainan King He Jingwen. Their good elder brother has a shiny green head.
"Is there anything else? I'm leaving." After He Dongchen finished speaking, without looking at their faces, he left lightly, followed by two rows of court ladies and eunuchs carrying rewards.
Several people looked at each other in blank dismay.
Arriving in front of the old emperor, the lively Ninth Prince seemed to casually say: "Royal Father, just now when we entered the palace, we ran into Eldest Brother. Seeing Elder Brother looking good and in good health?"
The old emperor glanced at him lightly, and said in a deep voice: "Just hold on, I have allowed him to live in the palace for a long time to cultivate, if you have nothing to do, don't disturb him."
When the few people heard this, they were silent, and the father simply opened his eyes and said nonsense, what kind of palace training, it is clear that he sent people there.
Their eldest brother is also pitiful. In just one month, his family betrayed, his fiancée cheated, the crown prince was lost, and his father was afraid. When the marriage was given before, other people had both concubines and concubines. The eldest brother got a side concubine from a low family background. , and now he will be assigned to the palace for a long time.
awful! Really miserable! That's horrible!
For the sake of such misery, he should be merciful when he ascends the throne.
The princes and princes agreed in the same way, then looked at each other warily, and stepped on each other in front of the old emperor.
