"Okay, don't feel wronged."
Zhu Youtang was upset and said, "I will take the time to intercede for you. The Empress Dowager is not unreasonable. She is an elder. Even if there is something really wrong, you can just be more accommodating."
Queen Zhang was unwilling to do so, but she didn't dare to be presumptuous anymore.
She was favored, and she often relied on it to make her proud, and the emperor's husband was also good-tempered, but when he got really angry...she was the one who suffered.
If the main palace loses favor, life will be difficult, and there is a living example right now.
Besides, she, the main queen, has two generations of people behind her, and she has not yet given birth to an heir.
Queen Zhang was quiet, curtsied and said, "I, my concubine, leave."
"Go ahead, go ahead." Zhu Youtang showed a rare expression of impatience. After taking a few deep breaths, he sat back on the royal writing desk, raised the ink pen, but put it down again, sighing...

Kunning Palace.
"What? Your Majesty is moving to Changle Palace?" Zhou was shocked, and then jumped, "Confused, confused..."
She knew very well what moving to Changle Palace meant.
The previous Supreme Emperor lived there, and moving there would be tantamount to announcing to everyone that he, Zhu Jianshen, would no longer be emperor.
He is only 40 years old, why doesn't he become emperor? Mrs. Zhou was a little angry: It must be the man named Ji who gave him the ecstasy soup...
After a while, Mrs. Zhou calmed down a little and asked, "Have you started moving?"
"Go back to your Majesty, the Emperor has gone to stay." The little eunuch replied, "Many servants have followed to clean up, it's very lively."
"Go and stay..." Mrs. Zhou's eyes darkened. Fortunately, the little eunuch had quick eyesight and quick hands, and supported her. "Mother, are you okay? Do you want to be sent to the imperial doctor?"
Mrs. Zhou pushed the slave away and walked straight out.

Changle Palace.
Zhu Jian took a deep sip of tea, looked at his angry mother, and asked with a smile: "Why does the queen look so hasty?"
You're still pretending to be confused with me, right? Zhou was even more angry, but couldn't say it directly, so she said tactfully:
"Jianshen, you are still young, so you have to keep an eye on your ancestors' inheritance!"
"Well, I will watch from Changle Palace from now on." Zhu Jianshen said with a smile, looking contented.
"..." Mrs. Zhou looked at Mrs. Ji, "Xiao Ji, please go out first."
"Yes, my concubine, please retire." Mrs. Ji stood up and bowed before retreating.
Zhou watched her go out, turned her head, and said tenderly: "Jian Shen, you are the meat that fell off my body, and my mother has never had any bad intentions towards you!
Yes, you are a bit harsh on Wan Zhen'er... the mother, but that is also for the sake of your reputation. How can a mother in the world not think about her son? "
What she said was emotional and true!
The Zhou family had no intention of harming Zhu Jianshen.
Zhu Jianshen lowered his eyes for a long time, sighed quietly, and nodded gently: "I understand."
"But why are you...sigh." Mrs. Zhou didn't understand, "Don't you know the difference between having power and not having power?"
Zhu Jianshen smiled: "The Ming Dynasty must be passed on, sooner or later."
"You will be ignored by their mother and son, do you know?" Mrs. Zhou hated iron.
"Just leave it alone." Zhu Jianshen said nonchalantly, paused, and then said: "Mother, after the new year, you will be sixty, right?"
Mrs. Zhou was stunned for a moment, and her anxious expression subsided slightly. She was very heartbroken that her son still remembered this.
"Yeah, you're already in your sixties!"
Zhu Jianshen put down the tea cup and said seriously: "I'm sorry for the disrespect. People are rare in the past seventy years. My mother has been gone for most of her life. Why bother? Why bother?"
Without waiting for Zhou to speak, Zhu Jianshen continued: "You Zangren is a little weak, but he is very filial. Has he ever been disrespectful to you since he came to the throne? Has Xiao Ji ever been disrespectful to you?"
"Oh... don't bother, just let it be." Zhu Jianshen smiled bitterly and shook his head, "To put it bluntly, their mother and son are more filial than my biological son."
Zhou was a little excited, "I'm tossing? You said I'm tossing? How can you say that about me..."
"Do you know how I survived? Do you know my suffering?" Zhou became more and more excited as she spoke, and even started to go crazy, "I am an old woman now, but back then, I was still in my prime!
But as for your father, he has never looked at me directly. No matter how much I try to please him, even if I gave birth to a prince for him, he is still obsessed with the man named Qian. Am I so unbearable? "
Mrs. Zhou was very emotional and burst into tears, "None of you slaves are snobbish. As emperors, how can you understand the intrigues in the harem?
what can I do? I could only rely on the then Empress Dowager Sun, but she also oppressed me. You thought your father was hunting in the north, and I didn’t want to raise you? That's because the person named Sun won't let him!
She wants her confidant Wan Zhen'er..." She paused and became even more angry, "That bitch Wan Zhen'er dares to seduce the prince... They are all bitches, and they all bully me. "
Zhou's face was full of madness, "Finally, I survived. My son became the emperor and I became the queen mother. I have been humble for so long. Can't I feel proud?"
Then, he smiled miserably: "But my son is not of the same mind as me! Later, the Emperor came back fine, and so did the man named Qian. They were in pairs, what about me?"
Zhou was hysterical, "Under the ancestral system of the Ming Dynasty, only the direct descendants can be buried with the late emperor after their posthumous title and nephew's ancestral temple. Even before his death, your father was unwilling to issue a will to let me enter the imperial mausoleum... Haha, I'm dead, I can only be alone. Of course I want to enjoy enough while I am alive, and I want to make up for everything I have lost..."
Seeing his mother like this, Zhu Jianshen suddenly felt distressed. He stood up and stepped forward, hugging her gently.
Zhou struggled for a while, then burst into tears.
for a long time…
Zhu Jianshen said softly: "The treatment enjoyed by Queen Qian can also be enjoyed by the mother. She can enjoy the posthumous title of the emperor, the ancestral temple, and the joint burial in the imperial mausoleum."
Zhou's body trembled, "Really? Seriously?"
"Of course." Zhu Jianshen said, "The emperor must also obey the will of the Supreme Emperor."
"well……"
…
After appeasing Mrs. Zhou, Zhu Jianshen raised his voice and said, "Here comes..."
When the servants heard the movement in the palace, they immediately retreated far away, fearing that they heard something they shouldn't hear. Zhu Jianshen called them several times before calling them.
"I have ordered all the concubines to come to Changle Palace immediately, and the emperor will also come." Zhu Jianshen said calmly, "I have a meeting, so go quickly!"
"Yes, I obey your order."
The slaves did not dare to neglect, they did not understand what happened, but they heard the crying just now clearly, and they understood that something big had happened.

Lianjiatun'er.
Small courtyard.
Wang Shouren got a lot of archery targets, but he didn't bring any bows and arrows.
"Sir, I prepared the bow and arrow, but my father burned it." Wang Shouren looked helpless.
"He doesn't want you to learn this?"
"That's right." Wang Shouren explained, "But it's more to avoid taboos. The capital is no better than other places. It is a serious crime for the emperor to hide armor, crossbows, and arrows at his feet."
Li Qing laughed and said, "With only one set of bows and arrows, it will never be like this."
Wang Shouren spread his hands and said, "There is nothing I can do about my father's decision to go online. Other than that, my father has always been very stubborn on issues of principle, and I'm afraid of making him angry."
You're not angry with him enough... Li Qing rolled his eyes and said, "Do you want to learn?"
"Of course I do!"
"Chef Dong has a knife. Go and chop a bamboo. Let's make it ourselves."
"Okay!" Wang Shouren nodded and walked straight to the east kitchen.
Li Qing suddenly said: "Wait a minute."
Wang Shouren was surprised: "What's wrong?"
"It was originally fine, but you have to cut it down in order to learn bow shooting. Isn't that unreasonable?" Li Qing raised an eyebrow.
In this wave, use the other's spear to attack the other's shield and see how you break it!
"..." Wang Shouren said sarcastically: "The young man got it wrong before. Everything has life. If we follow that theory, no one will be able to live."
Li Qing was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "Well, that's right, go ahead."

"I'm back, but I'm not coming back for the throne. No matter what happens now or what happens in the future, don't have other thoughts." Zhu Jianshen sat on the main seat and scanned everyone, "Everyone, please be calm. If anyone lets go, You can only live a good life, but if you insist on being a monster, then don’t blame me for being rude."
After a pause, his tone suddenly turned cold: "Do you understand everything?"
The concubines were excited and responded hurriedly: "I understand."
They looked at Mr. Zhou, but Mr. Zhou did not speak.
Zhu Jianshen glanced at the frowning Zhu Youtang again, "Zhu Youtang!"
The fat on Zhu Youtang's face trembled, and he hurriedly said: "I understand, my son also understands."
"Hmm..." Zhu Jianshen's expression softened a little, "Tomorrow at the meeting, you will convey your father's wishes to all the officials, so that they can all focus on the right path."
"Yes, I obey your orders."
Zhu Jianshen nodded and said, "Concubine Chen will stay for a while, and the others should leave first."
"yes."
The concubines left one after another, and Zhou was also supported by Zhu Youtang and left the hall.
In the huge palace, in the blink of an eye, only Concubine Chen was left.
She was a little nervous, "Your Majesty, my concubine..."
"You don't need to be nervous." Zhu Jianshen comforted him. He kept Concubine Chen, but he didn't want Concubine Chen to follow the same path as his mother. ωＷω.ＧoＮЬ.οrＧ
In fact, he quite liked Concubine Chen, otherwise, Concubine Chen would not have given birth to several children in succession for him.
Zhu Jianshen said warmly: "Xiao Shao, are you unwilling?"
"I don't dare."
"It's because you don't dare, it's not because you don't have any, right?" Zhu Jianshen said with a smile, "Don't kneel, I'm not blaming you, sit down."
Concubine Chen felt uneasy, sat down again, and added: "I don't have any."
Zhu Jianshen smiled and sighed: "To establish a prince, to establish a direct descendant, to establish an elder, this is the ancestral precept, and I cannot violate it. I hope you can understand."
After a pause, "I like you because you are well-educated and sensible. From now on, you will often come to Changle Palace without any need to report. Later, I will issue a decree to make you a noble concubine."
"Noble, noble concubine?"
"Don't want to?"
"Yes, I am willing." Concubine Chen nodded hurriedly.
Zhu Jianshen said again: "Let's stay in Changle Palace for the next few days. I will let Youqian enter the palace tomorrow. Since he moved into the Tenth Prince's Palace, you mother and son have been together less and apart more. This time, we get together well, and by the way... …consecrate him to the title of king.”
"Yes, I would like to thank the emperor for your kindness." Concubine Chen was happy, but at the same time, she was also a little lonely.
But then I thought about it, Zhu Youtang has already ascended the throne, what else is there to regret?
Things have come to this, and this is the best.
