Just as the end of Internet celebrities is live broadcasting and selling goods, the end of princes is princes.
Let me ask, who is a prince who doesn't want to be a prince?
Not to mention the third child, even the youngest Zhou Yan has occasionally thought about what he would be like if he were the prince and the queen.
What people call maturity is not the abandonment of emotions and desires as some so-called religions say, but the suppression of desires.
You can have desires, everyone has desires, even extremely dark desires. Whether a person is mature or not depends on his ability to control himself and whether he can suppress his inner desires.
Just like some people, when they see a beautiful celebrity, even if the other party throws herself into their arms, they suddenly think of their wife and children, and shoot the beautiful celebrity against the wall. This is called maturity.
It's like some people haven't met a beautiful woman yet, but they just see an internet celebrity on the Internet, and then start making comments. I want to press her on the wall and make RUA. This is called immaturity.
This is the most intuitive reflection of the maturity of suppressing desires. Zhou Ben may be a mature prince, but he is definitely not Lao Ba's mature son.
This is also the difference between the emperor and ministers.
The emperor believed that it was his own right to make him emperor and had nothing to do with anyone else.
The ministers believe that by assisting the emperor, they can interfere with who will be the prince and who will be our boss in the future.
This is where many things are scary. When an immature person meets another immature person and convinces each other, they think they are mature. When they cheer each other up, they think their immature ideas are mature.
Lao Ba's immature son Zhou Bi has an even more immature mother, Concubine Chen.
The two sat opposite each other in Qingning Palace. Zhou Ben's expression changed again and again, sometimes hesitating, sometimes gritting his teeth, sometimes timid, sometimes hesitant, sometimes revealing his innermost thoughts that were ready to move.
"I wish I could call you Bi'er for my mother..."
Concubine Chen opened her mouth, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she was struck with a critical blow: "I will call you mother, mother, queen."
There is a big difference between a queen mother and a mother-in-law.
The mother-in-law is called the concubine by the prince, and the mother-in-law is called the queen by the prince.
"Can…"
Zhou Ben still had some doubts and didn't know the specific situation in Beijing.
Lao Ba had only been on the throne for more than a year. After Zhou Ben arrived in the fiefdom, he started to build a government. He was mostly busy with the affairs of the fiefdom. Officials in Beijing and Donghai were rarely transferred.
The aristocratic families on the other side of the East China Sea are very knowledgeable about the situation in Beijing. The problem is that they don't know Zhou Bi very well, and it is impossible for anyone to kick open the door and find a prince to tell him about the situation in Beijing.
"Let me think about it for a few days."
After all, Zhou Ben was not dazzled by desire. He knew his mother very well.
When he was very young, his mother told him that he must be patient and endure everything. If he doesn't tolerate a little, he will mess up his big plans.
Zhou Ben knew that once he nodded, my mother would start to secretly arrange something. Once she started, she couldn't stop.
Now he doesn't understand the situation in Beijing, and he can't weigh the gains and losses, so how can he nod easily.
In fact, compared to Concubine Chen, Zhou Ben is more sober.
It has nothing to do with gender, it can only be said about the environment. Concubine Chen thinks she has better looks than Concubine De, and is more coaxing and obedient. Looking at Concubine De, she is like a shrew who fights Lao Ba every day.
Therefore, Concubine Chen was very aggrieved. As long as she arrived at Qingning Palace, as long as she crossed the threshold, except for accidents when doing things, she didn't have to do anything. Why should she not be favored by Concubine De?
In addition, Concubine De would educate her, point her in the right direction, and tell her not to let her relatives wander around the capital.
Concubine Chen was very angry. I only have a few relatives in my family. My husband is the emperor. Why can't my relatives show off? Your relatives in Concubine De's family are all dead. It doesn't hurt to stand and talk. If you still have relatives, Maybe even more outrageous than my relatives.
That's all. Concubine Chen mentioned this matter to the emperor, but the emperor gave her a slap in the face.
Concubine Chen was even more aggrieved. Her husband was the emperor, so he was even better than Qi Tongwei. Let alone the emperor, let’s talk about Director Qi. If her husband was Director Qi, even the rolling pins at home would have to be arranged into police batons. As a result, now If you can't get anything cheap, then I'll hang out with you.
In short, coupled with the experience in the previous palace and various reasons, Concubine Chen became ambitious and unsatisfied with the status quo, especially the fact that the boss was rebellious and the second child was brainless, which also gave her hope, great hope.
"Mother and concubine, I will take my leave first and allow you to think about it for a few days."
"That's fine."
Concubine Chen nodded: "Stay with your father, and go to the palace to pay your respects. Remember, don't get too close to people related to Han You. No, no, no, no, don't have anything to do with Han You's people." Related."
"That's why, there is a guest in the Boy's fiefdom. At that time, the Nandi County Government mentioned Han Bairen with great admiration and called him the best general at that time. The Boy admired..."
"Shut up!" Concubine Chen interrupted coldly: "Just do whatever my mother tells you to do. Could it be that my mother will harm you? She came back early after leaving and lived in the Chen Mansion in Tailong Fang in the middle of the capital. Your uncle."
"The child knows."
Zhou Ben stood up and gave a salute. Just as he was about to leave, Concubine Chen quickly said, "Also, don't go looking for King You."
"Why is this?" Zhou Ben frowned: "Hai'er and Ninth Brother have not seen each other for many years. You also know that Ninth Brother and Hao'er are the closest."
Concubine Chen was so angry.
Zhou Tong said the same thing at the beginning, saying that Lao Jiu was the closest to him, but in the palace, Zhou Yan beat Zhou Tong the hardest, riding on him and beating him!
"My mother will not harm you. King You has already been bewitched by Han You."
"But... the kid resigned."
Zhou Ben didn't say anything more, turned and left.
After walking out of Qingning Palace, Zhou Ben lowered his head, followed by two young eunuchs.
After staying in the fief for a long time, no one would question him and tell him what to do. When he suddenly entered the palace, I couldn't do this or that, which made Zhou Ben very unaccustomed.
Being in Nuo Da's palace, Zhou Ben had complicated thoughts.
When I was still in Donghai, I heard that my father had really ascended the throne as emperor and that I became a prince. I couldn't believe it for several days.
The father who only knows how to charge into battle on horseback, the father who keeps talking about your mother and your grandmother, the father who drinks heavily and eats meat, the father who is ill-fated and suppressed many times by my family, the father who can write an official document. The sleeping father has become the emperor and wants to control the people of the world from the palace?
In a daze, Zhou Ben opened his teeth and built a mansion.
Standing in front of the palace gate, Zhou Ben was still confused.
I have been familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics since I was a child. I thought that in the future, if I wanted to get a good name, I would become a prince, and I would have to govern a huge fief with tens of thousands of people.
Slowly, the confused Zhou Ben discovered that many things seemed not as difficult as he thought.
You can manage your fiefdom in an orderly manner, and dad can also manage the country in an orderly manner.
Walking in the palace, Zhou Ben suddenly raised his head, his eyes filled with strange light.
I can govern the fiefdom, and my father can govern the world, so why can't I become the prince? Why can't I become...
Unknowingly, Zhou Bi had left the palace, and the palace steward who was accompanying him came up to him with a smile on his face, holding a large number of invitations and greetings in his hand, at least thirty or forty.
"Your Highness, they are all dignitaries in the capital."
The butler looked like he had never seen the world and started talking in front of the guard guarding the door.
"There are people who want to visit you or invite you to a banquet. They are all dignitaries in the capital, including Mr. Huang Youwei, the left minister of the Ministry of War."
Originally, the two guards at the door were just watching the excitement. When they heard Huang Youwei's three characters, they looked at each other and became happy.
It should also be mentioned here that the guards guarding the gates are on duty. Sometimes they guard the gates, and sometimes they guard outside the Taiqian Hall or Jingzhi Hall when going to court.
This group of guards always communicates with each other. After all, they are all in the same camp. Who doesn’t know Big Old Huang’s name and his abilities? Anyone who is targeted by Big Old Huang, don’t even think about it. It’s just one thing. Road, make friends with others.
If you make paintings of the enemy, it is equivalent to painting with the word "death".
The invitations in the butler's hand were all from officials and aristocratic families.
The two guards felt like they were in the mirror. Both Huang Youwei and Han You were wearing a pair of Balenciaga. And Han You hated the officials and aristocratic families in the capital. Thinking about it more deeply, if the Third Prince After becoming close friends with this group of people, and being targeted by Huang Youwei, the consequences can be imagined.
No matter how powerful Big Boss Huang is, he can't kill a prince.
The problem is that Big Boss Huang also has a good buddy named Han You.
No matter how powerful the prince is, he should be taken care of by Han You. Isn’t that a lesson learned from Zhou Tong, the famous brainless boy of the Zhou Dynasty? When he entered the palace, the screams were heard outside the palace, and the whole family beat him up together. hours.
Seeing that Zhou Ben seriously asked the housekeeper to collect all the invitations and greetings, the two guards looked at each other.
Okay, I'm not running away anymore. As long as a member of the royal family dares to get so close to the aristocratic family, there is no need to think about it. Han You will definitely have to educate him when he comes back.
In fact, this is a very strange thing. The son made a mistake, and the father came to deal with it.
Not to mention that his son is still a prince, and the emperor should take care of him.
The imperial guards are on duty in the palace, so how can they not know Han You's status in Lao Ba's heart?
Lao Jiu calls Han You his mentor.
The second child, follow Han You as a lackey.
Boss, such a big palace has been taken over by Han You, and Han You's younger brother is even chasing Zhou Xiao with his troops all over the mountains and forests.
This already explains the problem. Now the third child, who is unfamiliar with the place, actually wants to hook up with the family that Han You hates the most. The outcome is already doomed.
Zhou Ben did not notice the strange look of the two guards at the palace gate, and hesitated when he was about to get on the carriage.
"Where is Prince You's Mansion?"
The housekeeper nodded: "His Royal Highness Youwang's residence is in Tailongfang."
Zhou Ben looked hesitant: "I haven't seen Lao Jiu for two years. I miss you so much, and my concubine..."
"What do you want, Your Highness?"
Zhou Ben hesitated: "That's all, let's stay in the city. I just don't know whether to go to find Lao Jiu or visit my uncle and the others first."
The two guards suddenly became nervous. Big brother, big brother, hurry to Prince You's Mansion and don't bother looking for Concubine Chen's relatives. You just entered the capital, so you can't waste time.
Zhou Ben glanced at the sky.
The two guards were eager to say, don't hesitate, go find King You, otherwise you will die easily!
One step to heaven and one step to hell.
Find King You, that is heaven.
Find the relatives of Concubine Chen, and then introduce a group of aristocratic families. Those aristocratic families will brainwash you and tell you that this is not good for Han You and that is not good. After that, it will be hell.
One wrong step, one wrong step after another, the reality unfolds.
"Forget it, let's go visit my uncle first. You stay here. If my father returns to the palace, send someone to look for me quickly."
"yes."
Zhou Ben entered the carriage, and the carriage entered the moonlight.
The two guards looked at each other and had no move. This unlucky choice forced them to make a choice. It was all about their lives. They were probably worse off than Zhou Tong.
Zhou Tong only provoked Han You at first, and then he was beaten black and blue. Lao Ba gave Han You an explanation.
This trick only needs to be used once. If Zhou Bi does something stupid, it will probably be useless if Lao Ba beats him a few more times. Commander Han may not do this again.
