“The higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment.”
"He originally thought that the child born from the combination of his and his mother's intelligence would be the best in the world."
"But he ignored that in order to survive and to reassure the nobles in the palace, my mother and concubine never dared to show off her talents, nor did she dare to let my son stand out. She could only live an ignoble existence like a snake, rat, insect, or ant in the gutter."
"But Qi Yu, believe me, concubine, you are born smart. As long as you are willing to learn and do from now on, you will definitely live up to your expectations and become a wise king of the Ming Dynasty."
"Alas, my mother-in-law is incompetent. She cannot let my son grow up to be a noble person, so my son will be wronged."
She felt that she was about to fool Zhu Qiyu to death.
The only thing left in my mind is my endless admiration for her and Zhu Zhanji.
She's good at talking serious nonsense.
Is it possible that she said that this bunch is not as good as Zhu Zhanji?
Zhu Qiyu shook his head repeatedly and said anxiously, "Don't be wronged, don't be wronged. The one who is wronged is the mother and concubine."
Smart people like my mother and concubine have been blunted. They have wasted most of their lives and are nearly fifty years old. Only when they get this opportunity do they dare to speak frankly.
Otherwise, the mother and concubine may behave vulgarly until death.
"Mother, my son will never let you be wronged in the future."
Hearing this, Sun Ge pretended to squeeze out a few tears to make himself look more sincere, "Qi Yu, if you can grow up safely, my mother and concubine are already very satisfied, so there is no need to feel wronged."
The atmosphere was so heightened that Zhu Qiyu, who had been completely fooled by Sun Ge and didn't know what night it was, leaned on Sun Ge's lap like a child and sobbed softly.
Sunge: Heart-to-heart is achieved!
I finally found the perfect excuse for my changes.
Sunge wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and reached out to gently pat Zhu Qiyu's back.
After a long while, Zhu Qiyu raised his head, his eyes were red and evasive, and he said quite uncomfortably, "Mother, my son has lost his temper."
"It's okay." Sun Ge smiled kindly, "No one knows a son better than his mother. My mother and concubine know that my son's nerves have been tense in the past two days, and his heart is as frightened as a duckweed. Do you know what's going on now?"
She has cleared away the fog in front of her, and almost blocked all the side roads, leaving only that one road.
Zhu Qiyu nodded heavily, "Thank you, concubine."
"In that case, let go of your hands and feet and do it boldly."
"My mother-in-law will always support you."
"Remember, nothing can go astray."
Sunge handed Zhu Qiyu a clean handkerchief and said, "Wipe it."
Zhu Qiyu's face turned red again.
It’s so beautiful!
Sunge commented silently in his heart.
Concubine Wu Xian is a rare good color.
Even at his current age, he can still glimpse his splendor.
The mother is beautiful, how can the son be ordinary?
"Where is my concubine's Buddhist beads string? If I had known you disliked it, my concubine wouldn't have given it to you?" Sunge joked with a smile in her voice.
Zhu Qiyu took off the sachet from his waist and proved his innocence.
"Accidentally disconnected, my son thought, looking for someone to string it together again."
"No objection."
A string of Buddhist beads on his wrist would prevent him from losing his composure in the Wenhua Hall.
Sun Ge smiled and said, "It's already late at night, and my mother and concubine can't stand it any longer."
"You should leave quickly."
Zhu Qiyu nodded, stood up and put the chair back to its original place.
"Mother and concubine, sleep in peace."
"The same to you."
As soon as Zhu Qiyu left, Sunge let out a long sigh of relief.
Looking at the big red rosewood wooden table with a big hole in it, she asked the maid to come in and clean it up, then Shi Shiran fell asleep.
Making up lies also takes energy.
Fortunately, Zhu Qiyu accepted all her lies.
Zhu Qiyu left and went straight to the study.
He had to be alone and collect his thoughts.
The candlelight flickered, and the shadow of Zhu Qiyu sitting upright was reflected on the window.
"Your Highness, the princess is here."
Shu Liang raised his voice and it sounded shriller.
Zhu Qiyu frowned, rubbed his temples tiredly, and used a volume of Song Dynasty history to cover the paper on which he was writing and drawing.
Then he said, "Come in."
The study door opened from the outside, and behind Wang was a little maid, carrying a food box in her hand.
Mrs. Wang took the food box herself, while the maid waited outside the study.
"It's already very late at night, why did you come here at this time?"
Zhu Qiyu couldn't help but yawn.
He is not a tough guy either. He read the History of Song Dynasty last night and had no sleep all night.
There was even more turmoil in my mind tonight.
Mrs. Wang put down the food box in her hand and whispered, "I just want to admit my mistake to His Highness."
"It doesn't matter."
"From now on, stay with my mother and concubine and watch and learn well."
"If your mother and concubine teach you, you will definitely become a good wife to this king."
As soon as his thoughts stopped, Zhu Qiyu felt sleepy and yawned again and again.
It seems that I still can't stay up this night.
"During this period, the capital is not at peace, and troubles can easily occur when people are panicked. I will leave all matters in the house to my mother and concubine for the time being. Don't have any resentment in your heart."
"When the crisis is over, you can take over again."
"I know that you have a flamboyant temper, but this is an extraordinary period. If you say too much, you will be wrong. You must be more careful with your words and deeds outside."
"In the past, when I was in the capital and remained quiet, no one cared about me. Now that you are so arrogant and domineering, no one pays special attention to me."
"But today is different from the past. Everything you say and do will be magnified."
Princess Wang nodded and responded hurriedly.
"I still have some matters to deal with. I will still rest in the study tonight. You should go back early."
His princess was really not unparalleled in intelligence.
But after all, they have been a couple for many years.
He and his mother and concubine were planning big things, and they just hoped that the person next to him would not cause any trouble.
As long as she is not jealous or jealous, Wang is quite transparent and considerate.
As long as his instructions are in place, Mr. Wang will not act recklessly.
"Then the prince should rest early."
"I ordered a cup of soup to be stewed in the small kitchen. If the prince is hungry, it will be a good way to satisfy his hunger."
"Concubine, please leave."
After Mr. Wang left, Zhu Qiyu looked at what he had written again, and a clear line formed in his mind.
The flames sprang up, and the tongues of fire swallowed up the paper, turning it into ashes.
At dawn, Zhu Qiyu made up for his lost sleep and felt refreshed.
Just as he was about to have breakfast, he took advantage of the opportunity of not having to go to the Wenhua Palace to go to the capital to appease the turbulent people, when he saw Cheng Jing trotting over in a hurry, "Your Highness, something happened."
"Someone is coming from the palace."
Zhu Qiyu was shocked. Was Wala attacking the capital?
Cheng Jing whispered, "There is news that His Majesty ordered people to knock on the door of the Xuanfu city yesterday and asked the Xuanfu guard to open the city gate to welcome him into the city."
Zhu Qiyu:!?(_;?
"Let Your Majesty go first?"
Cheng Jing shook his head, "Yexian's cavalry is stationed outside the south gate of Xuan Mansion."
"As soon as this matter came to Beijing, it made matters worse."
Zhu Qiyu no longer knew what expression to make.
Xuanfu Town, one of the Jiubian Towns of the Ming Dynasty, is a crucial place to defend Kyoto and defend the throat of the Mongolian people from going south.
