Chapter 177: I can't wait to poke my eyes

In the evening, the eldest wife Zhang returned to the house, and Shaoyao dragged her unhealed body to see her.
"Madam, Qingmei and the others are busy embroidering the wedding dress for the second girl. Shouldn't the gold thread be prepared early?"
The eldest wife Zhang looked at Shaoyao, "The people from Zhilan Academy looked for you?"
Shaoyao didn't hide it, and said everything.
"The slave and maid thought, although the wedding date of the two girls has not been set, they should be prepared early. In case there is a will in the palace, the wedding date will be set within the year, and it will be too late."
The eldest wife Zhang nodded, "I should prepare earlier. How much gold thread did you prepare for the wedding gown of the third girl?"
Shaoyao bowed and said, "Mrs. Qizhen, for the wedding gown of the three girls, nearly four taels of gold thread have been prepared."
The eldest wife Zhang said: "You order to go down and let the sewing room prepare eight taels of gold thread and send it to Zhilan Academy."
Shaoyao smiled openly, "My wife is still thoughtful."
The sewing room got the order, and after a few days, he twisted five taels of gold, pulled the thread, and sent it to Zhilan Academy. The remaining couples will be twisted a few days later before sending.
Qingmei and the others got the gold thread, so they were busy embroidering the wedding dress.
This matter reached Gu Yue's ears.
Gu Yue exploded immediately.
"Too much deception! My wedding dresses are all less than four taels of gold thread. Gu Jiu's wedding dresses have to prepare eight taels of gold thread. They are both prostitutes. Why should I prepare more gold threads for her than mine? Doubled. Auntie obviously looks down on me. I can't just leave it alone."
Gu Yue was so angry that she cried, arguing that she was going to find Xie to help her out.
Maid grape hurried to persuade her.
"Girl, don't be impulsive. Your wife goes out early every morning and comes home late, and she is already exhausted. You take this to your wife at this time, and your wife has no energy to help you out."
Gu Yue stared, "Then what do you say? Do you want me to swallow and watch Gu Jiu proudly?"
Putao hurriedly shook his head and said: "The slave-maid means that it has been a few days since the funeral of the empress and the empress. It is better to wait for the national funeral to be over, and the girl will find the opportunity to talk to the wife in front of her. The wife will take care of the board of directors together. The gold thread is also a reason, maybe it can help the wife.
At that time, the wife might be happy, so she will prepare a dowry of several thousand taels of silver for the girl. "
Gu Yue bit her lip, her eyeballs tumbled, "You are right. Now my mother is exhausted and unable to stand for me. I will wait a few days, and wait for the national funeral to end, and my mother will come forward after the rest. Grape, you will do it for me. I stared at Zhilan Academy. Zhilan Academy was really deceiving people too much."
Grapes lead.
In a blink of an eye, the empress empress stopped for 21 days and finally went to the funeral.
Jucheng mourns.
His Royal Highness cried particularly miserably.
The people beside, even though they were crying, more of it was relief.
Twenty-one days of suffering is finally over.
Looking at it, everyone looked tired and haggard, four or five years old.
Everyone's body was at its limit. After the funeral team left the city, everyone got on the carriage and collapsed on the carriage, unable to get up.
In the next two days, the officials and eunuchs of the fourth rank and above in the capital, the royal family members, without exception, were all quiet as chickens, sleeping and raising their bodies.
The emperor also understands everyone's hard work during this period, and deliberately took three days off. Three days are enough for everyone to recover and go to the court full of energy.
When I arrived at the court, the prince was not there.
At this time, many officials later realized that the prince was going to be a filial piety for the empress for three years.
The civil servants frowned first. The prince did not go to court for three years. Is there still a place for him in the court hall?
Then I thought about it again, the empress is no longer there, and the prince is in danger.
If the prince did not go to court for three years, it was a good way to save his life.
As a result, the civil servants nodded secretly, and the empress was wise.
The nobles frowned.
The prince has not been in court for three years, how to handle him.
but……
Everyone looked up at the emperor.
The emperor hated the prince long ago, and even if the prince did not go to court for three years, he still had the opportunity to pull him off his horse.
Even if the prince stays on his own, the Donggong officials will not be willing to remain silent.
Everyone spent eight years of hard work and finally let the emperor's side, no one speak for the prince.
Years of hard work will fail.
Moreover, the queen empress passed away, it was time to take advantage of the victory and pursue, so that His Royal Highness could not eat.
Everyone exchanged glances, and they all aimed at the East Palace.
East Palace Bowang Garden.
His Royal Highness sat on the head, listening to the screams of the officials, but he was silent.
He was dressed in filial obedience, his face was haggard and sallow, and there were bloodshot eyes in his eyes. The body that was originally white and fat was two times thinner visible to the naked eye.
Regarding keeping filial piety, the royal family has the rule of replacing the moon with the day. Replace twenty-seven months with twenty-seven days.
However, His Royal Highness had already decided that he would obey the empress's last words and keep his filial piety for three years. Three years without dynasty.
"...Think twice! Your Majesty will go to the court hall three years later. The court hall has already been in a different situation. How will His Majesty display his hands and feet in the court hall? How will your Majesty be pleased?"
"Not only that, in the past three years, King Zhao, King Yan, King Ning and others will definitely win over courtiers and develop their strengths. Three years later, His Royal Highness returned to the court hall, although he has no place to stand. Even a little errand can't be done well. In this way, the emperor will only become more dissatisfied with His Highness."
"Weichen and others all know that Empress Empress’s last words are for the sake of her Royal Highness, but Empress Empress is still not considerate enough. The situation in the court is changing rapidly, and Weichen and others cannot go to court and listen to politics. Your Royal Highness will not be in court for three years, and then will be in court. Who else will open his eyes for His Highness? If the emperor punishes His Highness, who else will intercede for His Highness? Your Highness, take it back. You can't stay away for three years!"
"His Royal Highness, please take it back and die."
In the hall, people were kneeling in darkness.
His Royal Highness looked at everyone indifferently, and said, "Everyone, Aiqing, do you want to force this palace to death?"
"Weichen dare not! Please think twice."
The prince snorted coldly, "You come to persecute this palace before the mother's body is cold. This palace asks you, do you still have the loyalty as courtiers? Knowing that in the court, countless people are gearing up to deal with this palace, this When the time comes to push the main palace to the court, are you really not afraid of killing the main palace? The palace tells you that if I die, you can't run away."
"Your Highness, please speak carefully."
"His Royal Highness, Weichen and others do not know that the court is extremely dangerous. But at this time, His Highness shouldn't shrink back. Give it a try, there is still a chance. If you don't fight, I am afraid that there is not even a chance, and you can only be slaughtered. "
"Yes, there is still a chance to give it a try. Please make your decision early."
"Enough!" His Royal Highness rebuked everyone.
"The mother queen is right, you are too selfish. You always want to let this palace rush ahead, while you hide behind the fly camp and seek personal gain in the name of the east palace. Get out of the palace."
"His Royal Highness was wronged! The minister waited for the sake of His Highness, but in exchange for His Highness's suspicion, the minister was not satisfied."
"Subjects are not satisfied."
His Royal Highness sneered, "If you don't agree, then continue to kneel."
After all, His Royal Highness flung his sleeves and left.
The officials of the Eastern Palace looked at each other. How should this matter be?
Could it be that His Royal Highness was insane, he had always respected their opinions in the past, why the Queen's Empress died, it was like a new person.
But they didn't know that because the queen's wife passed away, His Royal Highness suddenly felt the pressure doubled.
There is no one to share the pressure for him.
He felt better only by hiding in the East Palace.
In my heart, I became more and more convinced that the queen mother left her last words and asked him to keep his filial piety for three years as a sincere and sincere consideration for him.
However, none of the officials had to forgive him for his difficulties, and they just blindly forced him to go to court.
His Royal Highness was almost overwhelmed by the tremendous pressure.
At this time, whoever asks him to go to the court to listen to politics, who is plotting wrongdoing, makes him disgusted.
It's just that he didn't expect that from top to bottom, the Donggong subordinates asked him to go to court to listen to politics, and no one thought about him.
His Royal Highness was extremely chilling, looking at the faces of the officials, he became more and more abominable.
He hid in the palace and did not see any subordinate officials. Whoever comes will let the other party go.
The thought of going up against the emperor's eyes, and the absence of the queen mother, the prince felt terrified and timid deep in his heart.
His Royal Highness really feared his emperor Lao Tzu from the bottom of his heart.
The emperor's eyes can make him shake like chaff.
In fact, when he was young, this was not the case.
At that time the father and son could still speak well. The emperor also praised him a lot.
I don't know when it started, the emperor looked at him more and more impatiently, more and more disgusted, like an enemy.
Every time he played the wrong way to the emperor, he would definitely provoke the emperor to scold him, even punch and kick.
Time and time again, His Royal Highness became more and more afraid of facing the emperor alone. Every time I go to see the emperor, my heart is always extremely nervous.
When you are nervous, you will behave badly, and the emperor will be disappointed and disgusted.
Things are in such a vicious circle, which is where it is today.
His mother asked him to be filial for three years, but he didn't understand it at first. Now I am extremely grateful to the queen mother for this decision, so wise.
After three years of filial piety, there is no need to see the emperor. He can also take this opportunity to cultivate his character.
Maybe in three years, he will be able to overcome his inner fears, go to court to listen to politics as he did when he was young, and talk to the emperor and courtiers.
His Royal Highness only thought of his fear of the emperor, but did not think about why the emperor hated him more and more.
Just because the father and son do not agree with each other.
When the emperor thought of giving the huge country to the hands of the weak prince, he became furious and couldn't wait to poke his eyes.
He was blind, and he was appointed the prince. The result was a puddle of mud that couldn't support the wall.
No one has ever really analyzed the reason for this to His Royal Highness.
He just kept saying that the emperor was cruel and unkind, and his prince must stick to his heart and govern the country with benevolence.
Brainwashed every day, the prince also believes that the emperor is cruel, and he is determined to change this situation.
Ever since, the conflict between father and son inevitably broke out.
The princess came to meet his Royal Highness.
"His Royal Highness, calm your breath."
His Royal Highness sighed and looked at the Crown Princess Sun.
Sun was the granddaughter of the great scholar of the North Korea after being famous, she was dignified and stable, but her body was not very good.
"You're here! Why don't you rest in the room? You're exhausted these days."
"The concubine has been resting for a few days, and it has been much better. But your Highness, I haven't had a good rest these days, and I look a lot haggard."
His Royal Highness sighed again, "Have you heard about it, the subordinate officials are persecuting Gu, and it is really unreasonable to ask Gu Shang to listen to politics."
The prince concubine Sun said: "The empress has something to say, the concubine thinks it is right."
"What are you talking about?" His Royal Highness came down with interest.
The prince concubine Sun thought carefully and said: "For the courtiers, both leniency and strictness should be combined. The fight that should be beaten, the kill that should be killed, can't just be soft.
His Royal Highness's face changed slightly, "You... do you think so too? Do you think how many people should be killed to gain power?"
Crown Prince Sun's eyelids were drooping and did not meet the eyes of the Crown Prince.
"Some people are not as clean as they are on the surface, and I don't know how many things they have done in private. Your Royal Highness should be clear."
His Royal Highness opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a while.
Princess Sun sighed and said: "Because of filial piety, the children's marriage has to be postponed until three years later. I don't know if the children will have a chance to marry wives and have children after three years."
"What do you mean by this?"
His Royal Highness was very dissatisfied, "Could it be that you and those subordinate officials have a glance to force Gu Shangchao to listen to politics?"
The crown prince Sun slowly shook his head, "His Royal Highness has misunderstood. The concubine agrees with the decision of the mother and the queen. The benefits outweigh the disadvantages of keeping filial piety for three years. The only thing the concubines worry about is the marriage of several children. Said your majesty decree to give marriage , But no one can tell what happened three years later."
His Royal Highness grabbed Sun's shoulders, "Don't worry, the children will be able to marry wives and have children. Don't think too much. Even if one day, the worst is true, loneliness will not drag you down. The orphans will take the lead in themselves. Stopped."
"Your Highness!"
The prince's concubine Sun was shocked, with a panic face.
"How can your Highness say such a thing."
His Royal Highness smiled, his eyes sad.
He held the crown prince Sun's hand and solemnly said: "The orphan will be ready for the death of the queen mother. If that day is true, the orphan will choose to stop by itself without waiting for the will.
In this way, the father and the emperor will have compassion for the upper and lower sides of the East Palace, and you and the children can protect themselves, retreat all over, and become a free clan. Although life may be a bit difficult, fortunately, life is safe and wealth is still there. "
The prince concubine Sun immediately burst into tears, and for fear of attracting the palace's attention, she could only suppress her voice and cry silently.
"Why is this? Why is this?"
Asked two why this was so, just because I was really sad.
His Royal Highness laughed, "I have been a prince alone for more than 20 years, that is enough. There will be records about loneliness in future history books. I hope that the historian will be merciful and don't say that loneliness is so unbearable."
The crown prince Sun shook his head repeatedly, "Stop talking about it. Things may not have reached a certain point yet... If your Royal Highness can survive these three years and your Majesty, that position will still be yours."
His Royal Highness shook his head slightly, "Even if the lone can survive these three years, he will not survive the father. The spirit of the father is the sign of longevity. Don't say such things again."
The princess Sun shook his head repeatedly, "Father is already old, maybe..."
"Stop talking. Even if the emperor is really unwell, he will definitely abolish the loneliness at the last moment, and set up another prince. In short, don't think about it, don't mess around. Just beg you."
Crown Prince Sun cried and nodded heavily, "The concubines listen to your Royal Highness. But the officials will not give up easily. They will definitely contact the generals in private. At the critical moment, they are afraid that it will cause chaos and affect the entire East Palace. ."
His Royal Highness frowned, "It's Gutai who indulges them. The Gutai will think about it, and you have to find a way to restrain them."
The princess Sun shook his head, it was useless. Those subordinate officials, in the past ten or twenty years, have been fed with appetite.
Unless they are all killed, they are just constraints and useless at all.
The prince's concubine Sun couldn't bear to hit the prince, so he didn't say anything.
His Royal Highness's willingness to cheer up and restrain subordinates is already very good.
There are two. After the Prince takes the first step, she will push the Prince to take the second step and the third step. Maybe there is still room for change.
Crown Prince Sun looked in the direction of Xingqing Palace.
The prince has been a prince for more than 20 years, and the queen mother has also passed away. Why does the emperor refuse to die?
If the emperor dies suddenly, will the prince be able to successfully ascend the throne and become emperor!
