Harem Reborn: Queen's Conspiracy
Chapter 4 When I was young
That night, the palace sent Aunt Jiaoyin to the palace to teach me the rules of the palace. My mother prepared a sumptuous dinner for them, and then arranged for them to stay. She will start teaching me tomorrow.
I am not worried about these, because I have already learned them in my previous life. What’s more, I have been immersed in the palace for six years and have learned nothing else. I use these etiquettes every day and I am familiar with them.
What I'm worried about is what happens after I enter the palace
I can rely on myself for matters in the harem, but what about matters at home?
The father is still the tutor of the seventh prince. Ever since the birth of the seventh prince, the biological mother and the concubine decided that his father would be his tutor, because his father and the concubine's father were Jinshis in the same discipline, and they had a close personal relationship.
My father is now the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and all the officials in the world are in his hands. Therefore, it is no longer a matter of two days for the concubine and the concubine to win over their father.
The reason why my father was demoted in the previous life was precisely because the seventh prince coveted the position of crown prince, and the emperor had long been interested in the second prince born to Concubine Zheng. The second prince was assisted by his grandfather, the chief minister, and he was a very calm and reserved person.
The emperor always wanted to make him the prince, but the seventh prince did not believe in this evil and wanted to compete with him.
When the two princes were fighting, their father was implicated
In this life, I can't let my father suffer like this again
So, after dinner, I went to my father's study to visit him. At this time, he should be in the study. Sure enough, after I entered the study, I saw my father checking letters sent from various places.
It was because the emperor searched the letter with the seventh prince that he had some criticisms, so the emperor caught him and asked, "Father, what will you do with these letters after reading them?"
My father looked at me puzzled and said, "Of course I put it away."
I pretended to be naughty, smiled and said: "Then if you want to catch my father, you can only use these letters."
My father was stunned, looked at me inquiringly, and asked, "How could Aluo have such thoughts? Do you doubt that your father would write something treasonous and unethical on the letter?"
"Of course the daughter knows that her father will not write this," I said softly, "but there is no guarantee that others will not maliciously slander her father? What's more, the king is suspicious, if..."
"Insolent!" My father lowered his face and shouted, "How can you criticize the king so casually? You are going to enter the palace in the future, so you should be more careful in your words and deeds."
I had red circles in my eyes and lowered my head. My father was just too upright! He said in a dumb voice: "It is precisely because my daughter is about to enter the palace and she will not be able to always be by her father's side or fulfill her filial piety in front of her father, so I have some words.
My daughter wants to have a good talk with her father before she enters the palace."
The father sighed, softened his tone and said, "That's all, is there anything we, father and daughter, can't say?"
I thought about it and asked, "Father, do you know which prince the emperor loves the most?"
The father pondered for a moment, then reported all the family treasures: "The queen's eldest son was originally the legitimate son, but unfortunately he died in infancy and now he has adopted the young eleventh prince. His biological mother is a maid of the Huanyi Bureau, so the emperor did not put too much thought into it."
The prince and the sixth prince were both born to Concubine Zheng. The emperor seemed to value the second prince very much. The third prince was born to Xu Chongrong, who was weak and dull. Xu Chongrong used to be a female official next to the Queen Mother, and his background was not high. The fourth prince's biological mother died young.
, and he was also given to the childless and weak King Cheng, who was no longer father and son with the emperor. The fifth prince was born to Wang Zhaoyi, with mediocre qualifications, but reckless and impulsive. The seventh prince, born to his concubine, was smart and lively, and had his own charm.
, As for the other three princes, they either have limited qualifications or their biological mothers are of low status, and the emperor has never looked at him differently."
"That is to say, in my father's eyes, the emperor loves the second prince and the seventh prince more than the other princes. So, how can we compare these two princes?" I asked to the end.
The father was silent. In fact, he knew in his heart that although he was the tutor of the seventh prince, the emperor still valued the second prince more.
I sighed: "Father, you have worked hard for half your life, so why bother making wedding clothes for others?" I saw my father's look stunned, and then said: "Father, in a few days, my daughter will enter the palace.
, as the emperor’s concubine, my daughter also... also wants to spread branches and leaves for the royal family..." The last sentence was very soft, but I knew that my father heard it, because I saw his expression became more solemn.
I bowed slightly and backed out. When I walked to the door, I glanced at my father. He was still thinking quietly. I didn't disturb him anymore. These things should have been decided by him. Even my father could not escape his fate... Then
, I cannot bow to fate. I firmly believe that since God allows me to live again, I must change my destiny!
In the next few days, I concentrated on learning etiquette. Although I knew it well, I still learned it again step by step. This way I could not only make a good impression in front of the two aunts, but also stay at home for a few more days to learn from them.
By the way, I asked about the situation of the masters of each palace. To be honest, I have been in the palace for six years and I didn’t know this. It was just because I was the center of attention in the palace at that time. Only others figured out my thoughts and acted, so there was no need for me to go there.
Be filial to others!
After asking about this, it will be beneficial to me in the future.
During the break, I still went to my father's study to read, but I found that most of the letters on my father's desk were missing. I felt a little relieved, but it seemed that some of the letters were very important, and my father was not willing to burn them, so that was all.
At least my father will listen to what I say.
When I went to the study that day, I met Zhongran. He was my father's disciple. He often came to my father's study to read. We had met him before. He always carefully guarded me and never dared to go against my will. He also treated me the same way.
caring
I remember the day when I entered the palace in my previous life, he followed me in the sedan chair. He followed me until my sedan chair entered the red lacquer gate of the palace and cut off everything from him. Then he stopped and I looked back.
At that time, I only saw a tiny black dot. I don’t know how long he stood there, but I think it was a long, long time.
In my previous life, I always felt that when I was young, I didn’t understand why this young man always gave in to me and why he always looked at me with such pity and weakness. But now, I understand.
When he saw that I was there, his face turned slightly red again. I smiled at him and said, "What book do you want to read?"
""Maolin Guangji"" he said
I found it and handed it to him, and asked by the way: "Have you read all the Four Books and Five Classics?"
He nodded, and I laughed a little awkwardly. He was always like this, eloquent in front of his father, but never calm in front of me. I said, "Zhongran, why don't you take the exam for meritorious service?"
Become an official based on your own ability. If you become an official, you will definitely be a good official in the future... In addition to my father, I have someone to rely on in the outer court." I said these words with some sadness, I sighed, and left lonely.
go out
Through the window lattice of the study room, I saw him put down "Maolin Guangji" and take a copy of "Eight-legged Outline". For some reason, my heart felt a little sweet and a little bitter.
