Han’s Son is Not a Slave

Chapter 920: Princess Qi

But no matter how disgusted, Zhou Shixiang must face up to the existence of his fiancee. He had never inquired about the eldest princess, but he knew that the princess had a very hard life. When Li Chengdong's Qing army invaded Guangzhou, the princess was only seven years old. She has been living in the folk until she was accidentally discovered by Guo Zhiqi, a scholar who returned to Kunming to report his duties, and this is the eldest princess of the Yongli Dynasty and the eldest princess of today's Dingwu Dynasty.

Li Chengdong's breach of Guangzhou was at the end of the third year of the pseudo-Shunzhi (the second year of Longwu). In terms of time, the eldest princess should be twenty years old this year. At this age, whether it is a civil or a royal family, she is a big girl. However, according to Zhou Shixiang's concept, this age is quite good. If he really wants to get him a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl as his wife, he is a little awkward.

It is impossible to regret the marriage. Zhou Shixiang didn't want to give Emperor Wu this embarrassment, and after Yangzhou was almost bombarded, he was really worried about the future. Marrying Princess Zhu Ming and giving birth to a son with Zhu family blood may solve a very difficult problem in the future. So no matter how unwilling he is, he has to accept this political marriage obediently. As for whether the eldest princess is beautiful or ugly, it doesn't matter, the important thing is that her surname is Zhu.

For some reason, Zhou Shixiang suddenly became a little nervous after learning that Princess Chang was coming. He is not a newly married person, he once had a wife and children, and now there are two women in Guangzhou, but for this Princess Zhu Ming, he just has a feeling that he can't tell, making it like an ugly daughter-in-law seeing her in-laws. Sometimes I think very openly and am amused by my own state of mind, and sometimes it is very tangled and nervous.

Once the eldest princess is gathered, the mistress of the Qi Palace will definitely be the eldest princess. Shi Yuanling's identity is destined to be impossible for her to be the main room, or even the side room. According to this year's statement, Shi Yuanling is a concubine. , a widow who is not on the table.

Zhou Shixiang had already sent someone to send Geng Jingzhong's ashes back to Guangzhou. He didn't know if Shi Yuanling knew about his son's death and would have any complaints or doubts about him. After all, if anyone in this world wants Geng Jingzhong to die the most, it is probably Zhou Shixiang who is lined up.

Geng Jimao certainly did not die of illness for no reason. This matter can be concealed from many people, but Shi Yuanling can never be concealed. As a wife, it is impossible for Shi Yuanling not to understand her husband's physical condition. Geng Jimao was just a year old when he suddenly fell ill and died not long after. Anyone would have doubts about this matter. The descent will also know this, but no one will pick it up. But no one can guarantee that after Geng Jingzhong becomes an adult, no one will tell him the cause of his father's death in the future.

Occupying his mother and poisoning his father, such deep hatred and hatred, what does Geng Jingzhong think when he is an adult? Is he willing to continue to watch his mother be crushed by his father's enemies, endure the humiliation, and accept the thief as his father in exchange for his own life and glory, or will he bear the burden of humiliation and avenge his father when the time comes?

Zhou Shixiang himself did not dare to say whether Geng Jingzhong would suddenly give him this "stepfather" a knife in the future, so he arranged for Geng Jingzhong to go to the battlefield. From the very beginning, this arrangement had the intention of letting Geng Jingzhong die on the battlefield, but this idea, as thick-skinned as him, never revealed a word to anyone. As a result, Geng Jingzhong really died in the battle as he wished. After knowing the news, he was surprised, but he was very relaxed immediately. As for whether there is any secret behind this, Zhou Shixiang didn't want to go into it, and he didn't want to know.

As for Shi Yuanling, Zhou Shi has nothing to say about her. On the day of Pingnan Wangfu, he had an impulse to this plump Jingnan Wang Fujin because of a temporary nature. .

Knowing the taste, Zhou Shixiang had to admit that Shi Yuanling, a woman, still had something "interesting" in her. With her, Zhou Shixiang can do whatever he wants, get what he wants, and be satisfied. As for Miss Wan'er, she always seemed to be unable to let go. There was more ritual flavor, less emotion, and less moisturizing and smoothness, which made him unable to do his best.

Bullying males and dominating females, whether in the past or in this life, Zhou Shixiang did not bother to do, but unfortunately, Shi Yuanling's body allowed him to do such shameless things. Now that he thinks about it, he always feels that he was really an idiot that day. Every time he gets up from Shi Yuanling, he will suddenly have a saint-like ethereal feeling. At that moment, he really felt extremely contempt for his own behavior. However, before long, he will miss Shi Yuanling's body again. In Jiangxi, Nanjing, and Yangzhou, for countless nights, Zhou Shixiang could not quench his thirst from afar. It was really itchy in my heart.

I hope that Shi Yuanling can learn the interest, and Geng Jingzhong is considered to have died in the war for the country. He will always be given the name he deserves. The title of "Gui Yibo" Zhou Shixiang can also be inherited by Geng Juzhong, and it will not be broken. I hope This will prevent Shi Yuanling from making trouble. After all, Zhou Shixiang also broke his leg. This battle is really sinister.

Lin Wan'er's background also limited that she could not overwhelm the eldest princess to become Princess Qi. Zhou Shixiang never cared about Wan'er's past. In this troubled world, it was not easy for a woman to survive. If you really want to be demanding, wouldn't those poor women in Suzhou end miserably? Their father and brother did not have the courage to resist the robbers who harmed them, but they blamed these poor women, forcing them to die to make a name for the family. the level of description.

To others, to Wan'er, and to Zhou Shixiang, he didn't want the monster of etiquette to continue to devour fresh lives. It's just that Zhou Shixiang understood that no matter how nice he was to Wan'er, he couldn't raise her as a princess, because his subordinates would not accept it. He can prevent ritual from swallowing human life, but he cannot stop ritual from determining a woman's status. The appearance of the eldest princess is undoubtedly in line with the concept of most people. This woman with a noble background is the mistress recognized by the Taiping army. Even Jiang He and other subordinates who insisted on making Zhou Shixiang the emperor would approve the eldest princess to be the princess of Qi, and would not be hostile to the Zhu family princess because they wanted to force Zhou Shixiang to usurp the throne of the Ming Dynasty.

Women, from ancient times to the present, except for a few cases, most of them have been supporting roles in history. In almost every dynasty founding emperor's harem, there will be daughters of the former imperial family, and these former imperial daughters are powerless to change the fate of their parents' family.

Two days later, the **** Pan Yinglong and the university scholar Hong Yuao accompanied the eldest princess to Ganlu Temple.

Not yet married, according to the rules, the eldest princess should not come to see Zhou Shixiang, which is not in line with the etiquette. However, in the current situation, the etiquette has long been very thin. The furnishings and rules of the Nanjing Palace are not comparable to those of the Chongzhen Dynasty, even the Hongguang Dynasty, Longwu Dynasty, and Yongli Dynasty. I won’t say it, but say that eunuchs are used. There are still a large number of eunuchs from the Chongzhen Dynasty who escaped from Beijing, and eunuchs from Nanjing and Fujing (Fuzhou) in the palace of Yongli. Now, only more than 200 eunuchs have been gathered. The twenty-four yamen of the inner court only restored the prisons (bureaus) such as Sili, Sishe, Shangbao, Yuanyi, Shangyi, and Neiguan, and none of the other yamen were set up, because there were no eunuchs available, so that the Nanjing Imperial City A lot of the housework is done by the maids.

When in Guangdong, Zhou Shixiang had instructed the following not to hire new eunuchs into the palace, and even made it clear to Pan Yinglong that if it was found that the palace had recruited new eunuchs privately, he would be the only **** who was responsible. Pan Yinglong has no opinion on this. No one in the world understands the pain of eunuchs better than eunuchs. Since King Qi is against it, King Tang also doesn't like to be ostentatious. With the newly established Dingwu court, the imperial city will not need too many eunuchs. Push the boat smoothly. Taking 10,000 steps back, he said that the **** Si Li was recruiting people behind the back of King Qi and the cabinet, and his father-in-law Pan couldn't get the money for these eunuchs.

Today's Nanjing City, whether it is the imperial city, the six cabinets, the large and small yamen, from the official salary to the ice and fire money, a copper plate is prepared by the Qi Wangfu for the list, and delivered on time on the 10th of every month In fact, there is no more than one article, and there is absolutely not much. Officials, big or small, are not exempt, and only Emperor Dingwu can receive more money every month, in order to let the emperor occasionally reward them, or else Emperor Dingwu wants to reward people for a while, only to find that he has no money in his hand. , that would be too inappropriate.

Zhou Shixiang saw Hong Yuao and Pan Yinglong~www.wuxiaspot.com~, one representing the cabinet and the other representing the emperor. Pan Yinglong brought Emperor Dingwu's decree to commend Zhou Shixiang, but it was mostly empty talk and had no real content. The items listed above only existed on paper. If Zhou Shixiang wanted the real thing, he had to do it himself. ready.

After declaring the imperial decree, and after another scene, Pan Yinglong said with emotion: "The eldest princess heard that Your Highness had injured his leg, and was very worried about His Highness. Every day, she went to Dabaoen Temple to burn incense and pray for His Highness. Moved."

Hong Yuao also nodded and said, "The eldest princess is a virtuous person. I have also heard that the princess once asked to see the saint and wanted to visit her highness in Yangzhou. The queen was worried that there was a war in Jiangbei, and the princess's going would cause trouble to her highness, so she persuaded her. This time I heard that Eunuch Pan and I are coming to Zhenjiang, and the princess insisted on seeing His Highness, but the emperor couldn’t persuade him, and the queen couldn’t do anything, so I had to bring the princess with me.”

Pan Yinglong laughed: "The queen has explained to our family. After all, the princess was a homeless person in her early years. If there is any rudeness in front of Her Highness, please don't blame her."

Zhou Shixiang didn't say anything else. He praised the princess a few words, and felt a little warm in his heart. He felt that the eldest princess was kind to him. Knowing that he was injured, he was so anxious that it was rare. It seems that this princess is not ignorant of the world. Girl. (To be continued.)
