Family Has a Concubine

Chapter 574: Traces (Part 2)

The prince went to Chu Miaoshu because he was not going well with the side things, because last time he was not going well, Chu Miaoshu encouraged him to make a major decision. Now that something happened, he couldn't help but want to talk to her.

When they came to Miaoyanxuan, they saw Chu Miaoshu sitting in the courtyard basking in the sun.

Seeing him, Chu Miaoshu immediately walked over with a smile: "Your Highness, you can count yourself here. Just now Lu Zhi said that you are busy and won't come for dinner."

The prince chuckled: "No, no matter how busy I am, I still have to accompany my concubine."

"Your Highness." Chu Miaoshu hugged his arm and leaned against him, "Have you finished your important business?" What she asked was when the old emperor would be killed, he would be the emperor, and she would be the empress.

The prince's expression turned cold.

Chu Miaoshu's face froze.

The prince said: "I would like to ask you, if you are a beautiful girl and you are about to be selected to serve as a servant, will you be happy?"

"Ah?" Chu Miaoshu was startled: "What are you talking about, Your Highness? The concubine has always loved His Highness, so why would she go to the draft?"

"What I'm talking about is what if."

"What if?" Chu Miaoshu looked disgusted: "I don't want concubines. Father is old and ugly..."

"But he is the emperor." The prince raised his eyebrows slightly.

"That's not necessary." Chu Miaoshu pouted her small mouth, "I have a wrinkled face, and I'm so dry, I feel disgusting when I think about it. If I were those beautiful girls, I would have committed suicide by throwing myself into the well."

"Hehehe." The prince laughed loudly.

...

After the third round of selection, there are only 50 show girls left, and Emperor Zhengxuan will select them in five days.

In a tall building next to the Xiu Yuan, the Crown Prince, Song Xiao and Li Gui were standing there, looking at the fifty beautiful women in the Xiu Yuan below learning basic etiquette from the maid.

"These are all civilian girls, and the rules and etiquette can't be compared with the noble girls. After the emperor chooses to keep them, he will learn the palace rules and etiquette for a month before he can go to bed." Li Gui said.

The prince stood behind his back in the pavilion, smiling sarcastically, serving the bed? Will the old stuff still work?

His cold eyes fell on the beautiful women in the show courtyard who were constantly blessing their bodies and saluting.

At this time, there was a sound of footsteps behind him, and Qian Zhixin walked in panting, holding a thick booklet in his hand: "Your Highness, it's all here."

As he spoke, he held the booklet to the prince, these are the rosters of the beautiful girls.

The prince picked up the book with thick names and carefully opened it, only to see that there were portraits of beautiful women on it, as well as ancestral home and other information.

Because he was going to enter the palace to serve as a servant, the information was written in great detail, including the demographic structure of the family, whether he had engaged in marriage, etc., all of which were clearly written.

The prince turned his head, raised his eyebrows, and sneered: "There are fifty people in there, but there are more than thirty who have engaged in marriage."

"Of course." Qian Zhidao said, "Because of the emperor's age... ahem, if you don't want to be selected into the palace, you have to wait until you grow up, so the age of the draft is from fourteen to seventeen. But your highness also knows that you can choose All the beauties who came to the imperial court were first-class beauties. They were over fourteen years old, and they still looked so handsome. Naturally, some husbands and families fell in love with them and got engaged. But the imperial election is a big deal, and there are some who want to present their daughters , There are also magistrates who let the beauties break off the engagement in order to hand over the beauties."

The prince snorted coldly: "It's fine if the father is a young and handsome man. He is almost seventy years old, and because he was seriously ill a few years ago, he looks like eighty. "

As he spoke, he thought about Chu Miaoshu's disgusted expression and words last night, and felt more and more unwilling to draft, and he didn't know how many people hated Emperor Zhengxuan.

He held the vermilion railing in front of him with both hands, looked down, and saw those beautiful girls following the nuns in front, repeating Fuli's movements constantly.

Some beautiful women looked calm and obviously felt that Emperor Zhengxuan was old, but he was willing to be the emperor after all. However, there are a few beautiful women whose expressions are indifferent or tense.

The prince squinted his eyes to scan the show girls, and finally saw the fifth show girl in the third row. He saw that the girl was above sixteen or seventeen years old, with a beautiful appearance and outstanding temperament. But her small face was tense, her body felt stiff and numb, and her eyes were empty and lifeless.

The prince was startled, and pointed at her: "Who is she?"

Li Gui quickly stretched out his head to take a look, then hurriedly flipped through the roster, flipped through it for a while, and said: "This girl's name is Su Ziqin, she is sixteen years old, she is the eldest daughter of a wealthy businessman in Baozhou. She was married, but because her father reported her to run for election, the marriage was annulled."

The prince's eyes flickered slightly: "Go and check her. Also, the people below... also check it." Pointing to the displeased girls below, he said.

"Yes." Song Xiao hurriedly answered with cupped hands.

The prince looked at it for a while, and then left with his hands behind his back.

The prince went downstairs and went to Fengyi Palace. But far away, he saw a guard running towards the imperial study in a hurry, the prince frowned and couldn't help following.

Emperor Zhengxuan was reviewing memorials in the imperial study.

Cai Jie rushed in suddenly: "Your Majesty!"

"What's the matter?" Emperor Zhengxuan raised his head.

"The magistrate of Lingzhou said that he found traces of King Liang over there!" Cai Jie said.

"What?" Emperor Zhengxuan's eyes sharpened, his old face tensed. Thinking of King Liang, his heart couldn't help but pick up, that was his son after all! And it's his and her son. only……

That country does not belong to the king of Liang, only the prince can be orthodox.

He had already given King Liang a chance, but it was King Liang who didn't know what was good and what was wrong, and failed his teaching and love... In the end, he escaped from Beijing, obviously intending to rebel.

only……

Whenever he thinks about King Liang, he still feels a little soft in his heart, a little unbearable... After all, it is his beloved son.

"Emperor?" Cai Jie frowned.

Emperor Zhengxuan lowered his eyes uncomfortably, but finally rubbed his eyebrows, his voice was low and trembling: "Call Zhenxihou in."

"Yes." Cai Jie hurried out.

When I walked to the door, I saw the prince coming over, and hurriedly saluted: "See His Royal Highness the Prince."

"Just now I saw a guard walking in a hurry, why?" the prince asked.

"This..." Cai Jie was taken aback, expecting that Emperor Zhengxuan would not hide it from the Crown Prince, but he did not dare to overstep the rules: "The Emperor is inside, Your Highness should go in and ask."

"Okay." The prince walked into the imperial study.

But he saw that Emperor Zhengxuan was lowering his head, resting his forehead with one hand, looking very depressed.

"Royal father." The prince frowned and called out.

Emperor Zhengxuan was stunned, and raised his head, only to see the crown prince standing below imposingly, looking at him worriedly, he was finally relieved, the crown prince is still filial!

Emperor Zhengxuan made himself smile: "You are here."

"Yes." The crown prince stepped forward, "Why is father looking so down?"

Emperor Zhengxuan sighed slightly: "Lingzhou found the traces of King Liang. Changzhou is only three or four days away from the capital."

The prince was startled, but soon calmed down. In the past, he was afraid of King Liang and wished that Emperor Zhengxuan would put King Liang to death. But now... In his opinion, King Liang is nothing. The one he most wanted to put to death was Emperor Zhengxuan, an old immortal!

The current king of Liang was forced to flee in Daqi like a bereaved dog.

The last time he was in the north, it was his maternal ancestral home that faced King Liang. News came from the Zheng family that the guards of King Liang had died and there were less than ten people left. The overall situation in Beijing has always been in his hands.

Ha ha, what kind of atmosphere can King Liang become. It's just a cheap life!

The most important thing now is... Thinking, a cold light flashed across his dark eyes, it was this old guy!

Seeing the crown prince's frown, Emperor Zhengxuan smiled softly: "Don't worry, I will let you have nothing to worry about." Besides King Liang, it is the biggest threat besides the prince.

"Hehe, I trust my father." The prince said sincerely. If you think he has nothing to worry about, then you old bastard should die quickly!

"Marquis Zhenxi is here." The eunuch's voice sounded from outside.

After a while, Chu Yunpan came in and knelt down on one knee: "See Your Majesty, Your Highness the Crown Prince."

"Get up." Emperor Zhengxuan raised his hand, "Lingzhou found the trace of King Liang, Marquis of Zhenxi, you immediately take someone to arrest him. If you can capture him alive, then capture him alive, no matter what method you use!" Disabled or disabled! "If you can't capture it alive, then... kill it on the spot!"

Chu Yunpan's eyes sharpened like blue ink, bowed his head and cupped his hands: "The general will obey!"

Chu Yunpan turned and left.

Emperor Zhengxuan looked at Chu Yunpan's slender and elegant back, and sighed hard.

Chu Yunpan looks like Yunxia, ​​maybe she is the reincarnation of Yunxia. Now, let Chu Yunpan go and behead the King of Liang...to do that, maybe it was destined in the dark, like the arrangement of heaven.

It seemed that that was what Yunxia meant, and it was also what Sister Xiao meant. The king of Liang is unfilial... even those who are close to him have to be killed righteously!
