Lord, don't be afraid, the princess is not angry

Chapter 218
After King Ji picked up the bowl of red soup for punishment, he winked at King Ping.

"Xiaoqi, you understand."

King Ping sighed helplessly, "Yes, half of each person."

Watching the two adults share the bowl of unpalatable seasoning, after eating, the two were sweating and their mouths were swollen, and the children watching couldn't help laughing.

"Sister and sister, how much chili oil did you use?" King Ji gasped with his mouth open. He now felt that his tongue was also swollen, and his throat seemed to be burning. It was really painful.

Zhuhua gave people cold water, and said with a smile: "Not too much, not too much. Eat something spicy in winter, it's good for your health."

"I can't see it."

A group of people played for a while, and only dispersed when it was late at night.Three geese nestled in Ji Wang's arms, and fell asleep as soon as they came out of the dining room. When they fell asleep, they even let out a smirk, which made Ji Wang pinch her nose.

The second day of junior high school was the day to go back to her mother's house for New Year's greetings. Ji Wang sent Jia's family to Jia's mansion and then went to Meng's mansion with his three daughters.Ping Wang's family took Yuan Tai with them, and naturally went to the Hou Mansion.As soon as Yuanyuan saw the little bear, she proudly said that she played a very interesting game yesterday.Xiaoxiong asked her curiously, but she didn't say anything, and Tuantuan helped to talk. After the talk, several children wanted to play, so Yuantai asked Yuantai to help them write.

"Come over to pay New Year's greetings first, and then go to play after paying your respects," Zhuhua said.

The children immediately paid New Year's greetings to Cheng Dashan and his wife obediently, and after receiving the red envelopes, they gave New Year's greetings to the second aunt's house, and then to the three uncles, and then ran out to play together after the greetings.Changzi and Dabao Erbao have already returned to the Hou Mansion, and Changzi has passed the high school exams, even if his ranking is at the bottom, he is very proud of it.

"You, let's see how you did in the spring exam." Zhuhua glared at him and said.

Changzi could think clearly, and said: "This year, I will accompany my two elder brothers to take the exam, study and study, and feel the atmosphere on the spot. After three years, it will be the time when I really want to show my talents."

"Sure, I'll wait and see. If you can't show it, I'll ask your brother-in-law to help you make up the lessons."

"Sister, it's Chinese New Year, why are you making up lessons?" Changzi complained, seeing a few children having fun, he said, "I won't tell you, I'll go play with my nephews."

Zhuhua laughed secretly when she heard this, she was taller than her, she was already a big guy, why did she still look like a child, she really should go out and experience it.

There are not many people who really go to Pingwang's mansion during the Spring Festival. After going to Hou's mansion on the second day of junior high school, relatives from the Cheng family came to Ping Wang's mansion together on the third day of junior high school. They don't go in after they are delivered to the door, so they don't have to go out to pay New Year's greetings after that.

On the eighth day of the lunar new year, King Ping had to go to the court again, even if he just went to the back and stood silently for a while, he still had to go.Generally, it was the first time in the new year that he formally went to court, and there was nothing wrong with it. When he arrived at the Taiji Hall, many of the ministers who arrived first were talking to each other in a happy New Year greeting.Seeing King Ping came in, they also saluted respectfully and chatted with him.

When the time came, everyone returned to their seats in a solemn manner, and bowed to the Holy Majesty who sat on the dragon chair.

"Dear dear friends, is there a play for this morning court?" The Holy Majesty asked as usual.

According to the usual practice of going to court on the eighth day of the lunar new year, the ministers will recite how peaceful the New Year is in various places on this day, and then everyone will kneel down and say something like the wiseness of the sage.After the crown prince passed away, the ministers would come out a few times on this day to persuade the sage to establish a new crown prince. Even though Yang Chengjian had a bad face every time he heard it, they still insisted on bringing this matter up today.

They also have new reasons this year.Now that there are many small countries coming to the court, sometimes there will be important figures such as princes and uncles in the mission delegation to Beijing. At this time, it is necessary for an important prince, preferably the prince, to come out to entertain.

The Holy Majesty was originally sullen, but after hearing this reason, he smiled, looked at the minister Shangzuo, and said, "If that's the case, let's follow your wishes."

As he said that, he nodded to Yongfu, and Yongfu took out the imperial decree that he had drawn up a long time ago and read it to the court: "The second is the most important thing, the style is to strengthen the Zong, and the first has Yuanliang, so that all nations can be chaste. Ji Wang Fangxun, my seventh son, Qi The quality is far away, the wind is luxuriant, filial piety is the foundation of virtue, Zhou Yubaixing, benevolence is the most important task, and all things are safe; he can be established as the crown prince. The official is ceremonial, and the order is based on the time."

As soon as the imperial decree was read, there was silence in the court.

King Ji, why King Ji?

Without waiting for the court to ask questions, the superiors announced their withdrawal from the court after King Ji received the order.Several of the officials glanced at each other, whether they dared to rush out and shout to the Holy One to think twice.After King Ji received the order, he was stunned for a moment, and he didn't even see the different gazes of the other princes. It was King Ping who slapped him on the back of the waist, and he woke up.

"Xiaoqi..." King Ji was speaking, and he winked at Ping Dynasty.

"Uncle Li's family seems to have something to say to you over there."

King Ji turned his head and indeed saw Uncle Li looking at him, he didn't bother to pull King Ping and went to talk to Uncle Li.Taking advantage of this gap, King Ping walked out of the hall through the arguing ministers, glanced at the ministers who had also withdrawn, and immediately looked away.He lowered his head and looked at the stone slabs on the ground, and walked without haste. In fact, he had already read the decree, and he was by the side when the Holy Majesty was drafting the decree; it should be said that the Holy Majesty has issued several important decrees recently. He was always on the sidelines.

That day, the Holy Majesty threw down a memorial urging him to establish a prince, rubbed his brows, and asked Ping Wang who was rubbing ink next to him.

"Qilang, do you think I should establish a crown prince?"

King Ping stopped what he was doing, smiled faintly, and lowered his head, saying: "It should be done."

"Who do you think should stand?"

"I can stand whoever my father likes."

"It's you who I'm asking!" His Majesty's tone became severe.

King Ping still said slowly and unhurriedly: "Elder brothers of my ministers can all be established."

Yang Chengjian glanced at him, smiled, and wrote down the will of King Liji as the crown prince.Compared with this will, the other will of Li Junwang becomes insignificant.Yuan Heng is also fifteen this year, and he was canonized as the King of Beichuan County, but the Holy Majesty did not let him leave the palace to set up a mansion, but let him move back to the East Palace.Even if King Ji is established as the prince, he will not move into the East Palace, but will change the current Prince Ji's mansion into the Prince's mansion.

Yuan Heng thanked him after receiving the decree, and immediately took people to the East Palace.These years, they have not let him go in, it seems to be his forbidden place, obviously his mother and concubine are still there, why don't they let him see!When he arrived at the East Palace, he saw that the formerly prosperous palace was now desolate and deserted, so he stopped in his footsteps.This place is not at all the same as the Weiyang Palace in his memory, and the person who will appear as soon as he returns to the palace does not appear.There was a bad premonition that took root in his heart, and it broke out in his heart at this moment. He was stunned for a moment, but he didn't dare to move forward.

The servants in the palace knelt on the ground when they knew that the new master had arrived.Yuan Heng didn't know these people. The ones who rushed to the front yard after being notified were his father's Xu Liangdi and her 11-year-old daughter. They were as timid and cowardly as he remembered.

"Where is my concubine mother?" Yuan Heng asked coldly.

Xu Liangdi was taken aback, looked at him cautiously, and said: "Prince Princess died of illness a long time ago."

"You're talking nonsense!" Yuan Heng was so angry that he kicked her away, and then led his men to search inside and out of the crown prince's uterus before he could confirm that there was neither his mother nor his mother in the palace. His father's tablet is still there, and there are traces of people often offering incense.

Back in the front yard, he pointed to the concubine who was too scared to speak out and asked, "What do you think, where is the concubine mother?"

"Mother... Mother Concubine died of illness, and was carried out for burial. Both my mother and I saw it."

"Where did it go?" he asked.

The mother and daughter looked at each other and shook their heads.

"Who lifted it?" The mother and daughter thought for a moment and shook their heads.

These years, they stayed in the East Palace and never went out, and they didn't remember the people outside. Those people only came once and never came again, and they didn't know who they were.

Yuan Heng immediately went back to the palace, went to the Holy Majesty's bedroom, but was stopped by Yongfu outside the hall.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is discussing matters with the ministers. If the Majesty has something to do, why don't you tell the servant first, and the servant will report it to the Majesty later."

Yuan Heng glanced at him with deep eyebrows, but still asked with a sinking breath, "Do you know where my mother and concubine are?"

"The Crown Princess has passed away. The Holy One was afraid that the King would be sad, so he didn't tell the King."

"Then where is my mother and concubine buried, but with my father and king?"

Yongfu hesitated for a moment, then said: "Shortly after the Empress Dowager died of illness, someone came and stole her body. The Holy One sent people to investigate for a long time, but they did not find those daring thugs. where."

Yuan Heng's face turned pale, he stared at Yong Fu with his head down, and after a long time he flung his sleeves and left.Yongfu sighed, and went into the hall to talk to His Majesty.There was no one else in the hall, the sage was practicing calligraphy, he didn't even lift his eyelids when he came in.When he finished writing, he looked at it for a while, then glanced at the words held up by the servants at the side, and then threw the pen on the table.

"I've been writing handwriting for a lifetime, but I'm not as good as Qilang's handwriting."

"The slave feels that the words of the Holy Majesty are much more imposing than those of His Highness King Ping." Yongfu stepped forward and said.

"Really? Hmph." The Holy Majesty laughed, and ordered: "Go and pass on an oral order, let Beichuan County King go to the Ministry of Officials to learn, and start with Yuanwailang."

"Will this be too wronged for the county king?"

"Uncle Zhang Guo is here, so he can't be wronged. By the way, let's ask someone to draw up a decree, let Ji... let the prince be the chief examiner of this year's scientific examination."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

At this moment, King Ji returned to the mansion in a daze after hearing the words of several uncles. He still doesn't know whether this is true or not or just a dream.When he got to the mansion and saw Jia Shi Huanxi standing at the door, he woke up immediately.This must not be a dream, otherwise the person standing here should not be her.
