Vol 5 Chapter 37: Ten princes

The tenth prince was shocked when he heard the words, and immediately understood that this was the aunt's changing method to match him with Gu Jue.
After all, Gu Jing, who had been in a good relationship with him in the past two years, was almost supposed to be his concubine behind, was sent home and "self-killed" with his mother.
Earlier because of Gu Jing's presence, Gu Jue didn't fit in with him, and the queen could still let him go. After all, there are twelve princes underneath and three princes above him. Who can't take over Gu Jue? There is no reason to force it to the most promising ten princes.
But at this moment, there was only such a niece, and the queen could not continue to let the two children have no fate.
"The children and ministers listen to the mother and concubine." The tenth prince quickly weighed in his heart, and said gently, "It's just that, it's too much trouble for cousin.
"What's the matter? She is in front of the house today, and she is also free." The queen said hurriedly, "Besides, she is very willing to help you."
After sending away the ten princes in this way, Gu Zhen sent people to call Gu Jue to explain the matter to the niece.
Ding Xingwang from the Gu family, when the queen chose two nieces from the family to raise them in the palace, of course they were also carefully selected.
Regardless of whether the late Gu Jing or this Gu Jue, they are outstanding in their appearance.
It's just that Gu Jing is leaning towards Xianyan and charming, looking like a begonia flower in the first bloom; this Gu Jue is slim and elegant, like a daffodil under a glazed window on a cold day, not stunning, but pure and pleasant, the more you look at it, the more you feel the wind. The kind that is moving.
She was not as lively and thoughtful as Gu Jing before, and she only quietly responded when she heard the words. Seeing that the queen had no other orders, she got up and left.
"Wait." Gu Zhen stopped her with a headache, and sighed, "I heard that you didn't want to enter the palace at the beginning, but your mother refused to lose to your aunt, so she fought your father for such a chance. You have to respond to it. Therefore, in the past two years, you stayed away from Xiaoshi, and my palace didn’t say anything. But now, you know the result of Jinger. You are a niece in front of my palace. If you are still right Xiao Shi is cold and indifferent, is this?"
After hearing this, Gu Jue was silent for a while before he whispered: "My niece, Aunt Xie, mention it. My niece will change it later."
He paused and said, "It's just that my niece is not as lovable as my cousin, I'm afraid I won't let the ten princes look at me."
"Xiao Shi grew up in front of my palace after all." Gu Zhen looked at her, not knowing why, but thought of Queen Yuan and An Fei.
This feeling was really unlucky. The queen hurriedly pinched it out and said slowly, "Although he knows his own life and is respectful to the Ping family, but in the end, this palace is his mother... just before this palace told him about you. , He also agrees, and he is worried that he will bother you... Anyway, you are honest cousins, and it is right for you to communicate frequently."
Seeing Gu Jue silently nodded, she always felt that this niece didn’t take her words to heart, she couldn’t help beckoning her to come to her, took Gu Jue’s arm, and said painfully,
My palace knows that you don’t like Gong Wei. Is it true that my palace has been in the palace for these years, and the life has been easy? But as a noble lady, enjoying the wealth and glory and shelter given by the family, of course I have to pay for the family. Otherwise, even if you and I can rely on you The grandfather’s contribution keeps you rich. What should you do when you wait for your niece and grandnephew? Moreover, although your majesty will certainly not let you be a concubine for Xiaoshi, the concubine may not necessarily be wronged. Not to mention. There is no reason why my palace does not feel sorry for you and feels for outsiders, just say that you and Xiao Shi have known each other right now, and you often spend time together. How could this love of getting along day and night be because of him who still doesn’t know where it is now? Can Zheng Fei compare?"
After some instruction, Gu Jue said indifferently: "What my aunt said is that my niece should keep it in mind."
Gu Zhen looked at her in such a way that the oil and salt were not entering, and lost the interest to continue, only waved his hand, and said, "Just remember it."
After Gu Jue left, the queen said sadly: "This queen in this palace has been doing it for many years. At that time, I always thought it would be enough to bear it. I look at it now, but the result is far away. Even the niece...If Jinger is still there, why should this palace give up these words with Jueer? Even Jueer really doesn't want to stay in the palace. With Jinger present, this palace does not necessarily have to force her."
This reminded her of what happened to King Chu back then.
Had it not been for the King of Chu, the child might have been in the Eastern Palace now, and there would be nothing wrong with Xuanqing Palace.
It seems that Gu's Fu Zuo is always lacking in that point, so at the critical moment, the key people and things always make them fall short, and the good situation is turned into nothing, but it is impossible to shirk responsibility.
"Please don't say that, Miss Jing's life is hard, but do you know that this is not Miss Jue's deep Fukuze, who has the fate of a concubine?" The attendant quickly calmed the queen, "Furthermore, what the Tenth Prince said just now, obviously also does not dislike Miss Jue It’s just that Miss Jue deliberately avoided the ten princes in the past, so the cousins ​​are not familiar."
Gu Zhen smiled bitterly: "Jue'er avoids him, this palace and you have seen it, Xiao Shi has been following your Majesty for the past two years, can he not know it? I don't know if he will be grudged, alas!"
But the queen thought more about it. The tenth prince had already returned to his residence at this time, so he told the waiter: "Ming'er, send someone to the capital to find a lot of hairpins. This prince will give it to cousin Jue."
His current personal attendant was after going to the Piandian of the Taichu Palace, and Chunjia chose him from among the newcomers.
With the emperor's check, of course it can't be the queen's side.
After several years of getting along with each other, the master and servant have been closely related. This little housekeeper is a brave man. He smiled and responded curiously: "Your Royal Highness doesn't like Miss Jue very much. You think she is too deserted?"
"This is what the mother meant." The tenth prince didn't lie to him, and started to learn the calligraphy with a faint expression, and said slowly, "The mother concubine was born in a humble background. If the uncle's family doesn't have one, the prince always needs the support of the mother. In this case, the queen mother wants her prince to be close to cousin Jue, and she naturally cannot refuse."
He calmly said, "There are many people in the backyard, but I don't like her very much, and to be honest, I won't be annoying."

After talking about these two sentences, the tenth prince asked immediately, "The elder brothers of this prince, what do you do in the past two days?"
The little servant hurriedly said: "I just settled in these two days. Most of them are arranging the baggage. I heard that His Royal Highness Qin is gearing up. I have an appointment with the Ninth Prince and several foreign ministers and children. I plan to go with your majesty and noble concubine in two days. Asked to go out hunting. Isn’t the queen dowager sick? They plan to borrow a name when the time comes, saying that they are looking for some nourishing mountain things for the queen dowager... The second prince heard the wind, a little envious, and wanted to go too , It was only stopped by the concubine Shu. As for His Royal Highness, the Three Princes... Looking through the case files at Dali Temple two days earlier, it seemed that there was some gain, and he might be running for an old case next. If the case can be solved, it must be for him. The reputation of the temple is quite helpful."
The ten princes said quietly: "The concubine Min is very pleased. King Qin wants to hunt, even if it is just for pure pleasure, the father knows in his heart that Yue Mo will not stop it, and even a few words of praise. This is the favor of the mother concubine. The benefits."
These words were very suspicious of the queen not being favored, and the little servant smirked and dared not speak.
I listened to my master continuing to say, "The King Qin is brave and unconcerned, and being favored by his father is just a fluke to be born as the eldest son. It is not enough to be fearful. On the other hand, Brother Jiu has a lot of thoughts, but Cheng Yemin is also a concubine. , He leaned on Concubine Min, although his mother Hanwei was not wronged, but Concubine Min had King Jin himself, so he would definitely not let him pass King Jin. These people don’t need to care about it. Second brother, Concubine Shu. I am timid, even thinking that my second elder brother will go out to be a concubine after he becomes a fan... but the third elder brother, do you know that he is sure of solving the case?"
"This..." The little waiter thought for a while, and said euphemistically, "The case has changed, and it belongs to Chen Zhizhi's rotten millet, but the third prince will probably not be overkill. Since I chose it, I plan to do it again. Most of it is. With confidence."
He asked in a low voice, "Do you want to be a slave and maidservant to add a bit of blockage to His Highness the Third Prince?"
The tenth prince hung his pen for a moment, but shook his head and asked with a smile: "Even though the third brother had a birth mother, he and the prince were raised by the queen after all. The prince remembers that the third brother has been very caring about the prince since he was a child... How can you trouble the third brother? Not only can't it cause the third brother to trouble, if there is something difficult for the third brother in the process of solving the case, we have to help him."
The little waiter couldn't understand his thoughts, after all, the master of his own family was not such a respectful person.
It stands to reason that the third prince is an extremely appropriate elder, and he never competes with his brothers. The tenth prince should be very accommodating to this elder.
However, the ten princes did not mean this, but were particularly harsh on the third princes.
Of course, this is not surprising, after all, the ten princes acted more to the foolish King Chu.
This lord's sex-son is so bad.
In a sense, he is actually more like a child raised by Concubine Min.
Pinching is so strong that you want to show off, and don't allow anyone from your brothers or sisters to pass yourself.
Even the brothers who were brought up by the queen and treated him well were not good.
The little servant has been serving him for the past two years, and he knows his temperament. At this moment, it is very surprising to hear him say this.
The tenth prince immediately said: "If the third brother is not up to the point and fails to succeed, then forget it, brother Quandang feels sorry for him once; if the third brother succeeds..."
He put a word on the paper slowly, and said leisurely, "The third brother has always been filial, so I shouldn't mind it. For the sake of the queen's Qing Ci Gong, he should give himself up for me?"
If the third prince is unwilling to pick him peaches...
Then he goes to the queen!
It is believed that his mother and queen are not allergic to the imperial concubine when he fights for favor with the father, but it is not a problem to convince the third prince to regress.
The only supporter of the three main princes in the palace now is the queen.
The queen has spoken, where is there no room for him to say no?
The ten princes had thoughts in their hearts, and they had already thrown Gu Jue behind their heads.
But at this moment Gu Jue was talking to him with the maid who entered the palace: "...Aunt is also in a sudden illness and went to the doctor. This host is unreliable to me, and my aunt blindly believes in him. Of course, my aunt hasn't gotten it now. Chosen, the princes in front of my aunt are the twelve princes except for him. But I heard that the twelve princes are not happy for your majesty because of the weakness of the son. Alas...it was rare that my sister Jing was willing to flatter me so that I can relax. I did not expect... This is really..."
"Miss, don't be like this." Her maid comforted, "No matter how you say, you are also the decent cousin of His Royal Highness the Tenth Prince. In the future, even if you cannot be a concubine, you will be a concubine. That is not something ordinary people can embarrass."
With a low voice, he endured his embarrassment and persuaded, "If so, if you can give birth to the eldest son of ten princes, then... Then you can count as a concubine, how can you make a mistake in front of you? It’s not Zheng Gong, but hasn't she been doing well all these years?"
"You little hoof dare to think, Concubine Min?" Gu Jue raised her eyebrows and sighed, "You think, but I think about Concubine An! How did your Majesty treat Concubine An when he was young, I am I haven't seen it before, but I've heard one or two...Don't you think the ten princes look like their majesty at the time? When they were young, they had to rely on their aunts to make plans. How could they reject their aunts' nieces? But it’s hard to say. Your Majesty has honored Concubine An so far, so he is kind. But for Concubine An, can this life be better? Especially, Concubine Min, who stepped An Concubine down, has won a favor so far!"
She frowned, "It won't work, we have to think about it."
