The emperor's heart alone

Chapter 118 Changping School Examination

"...my cousin is virtuous and virtuous, dignified and generous. The concubine thinks that there is no suitable person around the emperor, so I just let the concubine's cousin come in to serve the emperor. It also replenishes the fresh blood in the harem, doesn't it?"

In the Daping Dynasty, not only the draft was the only way to enter the harem, but there was also a practice similar to the emperor's Mengyin family, which was recommended by the harem concubines, and the emperor issued an edict to recruit the woman into the palace, bestow ranks, and make her a concubine. .

I only heard Shi Junji's voice saying: "No need, step back."

The woman's voice sounded again, with a touch of urgency: "Your majesty, I have a cousin, she is beautiful and beautiful, my majesty, look..."

Before the woman finished speaking, she was interrupted by Shi Junji's cold words: "Get out."

Xu Yunjin couldn't see the woman's expression, but he knew that she must be full of grievances and pity, and then heard the woman say: "Yes, my concubine is resigning."

Xu Yunjin was satisfied when he heard the woman's footsteps disappear with the sound of closing the door. He glanced at Xu Sa with a half-smile, raised his hand to let Xu Sa go out, and then came out from behind the screen.

Shi Junji noticed when Xu Sa was moving, and looked up just in time to see Xu Yunjin coming out of the inner hall, with a smile on his face, and asked himself: "Can't you act this play because you know I'm here?"

Shi Jun laughed and said: "What are you talking about? I didn't even know you were here." Then he said, "Why don't you stay in Zhuangzi for a while? It is very beneficial to soak in hot springs, why don't you soak more Bubble?"

"It's boring to stay by myself." Seeing Shi Jun's extremely happy expression, he said again, "Don't think too much, what I said is that no one else is with me, if Zhao Ershao didn't go back yesterday and is still in Zhuangzi today, I think I can stay a few more days."

Shi Jun looked at Xu Yunjin helplessly, thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Now the people in the harem are restless, and they all want to squeeze people around me."

"Can you not be crowded?" Xu Yunjin sneered, "Now that their husbands and their husbands are going to spend their days with other men, it is abnormal not to panic."

Shi Junji coughed twice: "There are not many children in the harem. At that time, all concubines without children will be sent out of the palace, and their future will be arranged. Those who have children will wait until they grow up and leave the palace to build a mansion. Take their respective mothers and concubines out of the palace."

Xu Yunjin shook his head: "I don't care about these things, I don't want you to disappoint me."

Shi Junji was about to speak again, when Xu Sa's voice sounded outside the door: "Your Majesty, the eldest prince is begging to see you."

Xu Yunjin was slightly surprised, obviously remembering the incident when he met the eldest prince on the road before, and was about to tell Shi Junji that he should avoid it first, but Shi Junji stopped him, and Shi Junji said in a low voice: "You stay here Here." After that, the First Prince was let in.

Xu Yunjin was sitting on a chair not far from Shi Junji at this moment, it was very obvious that after the eldest prince came in to salute, he looked up and saw Xu Yunjin, and couldn't help asking: "Why is it you?"

These words were abrupt, which made Shi Jun extremely displeased at the top. Leaving aside Xu Yunjin's identity, the eldest prince is the future heir and even the future emperor. When encountering such a trivial matter, he couldn't control his emotions. How can you not change your face when facing difficulties?Obviously, Shi Junji was very dissatisfied with the First Prince's reaction, but because Xu Yunjin was there, he had to give him some face, so he kept silent.

Xu Yunjin didn't pay attention to Shi Junji, looked at the eldest prince who was looking at him in surprise, smiled, and waved to him: "Come over to me."

The eldest prince glanced suspiciously at Xu Yunjin, then raised his head to look at Shi Junji, and found that Shi Junji had already lowered his head to continue reviewing the memorial, and stood there for a while, hesitating for a long while, then hesitantly walked over to Xu Yunjin and stood still, Looking back carefully at Shi Junji, he asked in a low voice, "Why did you appear here?"

Xu Yunjin smiled and said, "I'm the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, why can't I be here?"

The eldest prince stared at Xu Yunjin, speechless for a while, but he didn't mean that, he wanted to say why the atmosphere between Xu Yunjin and his father was so delicate?It feels weird, but no matter what, he is still a child less than ten years old, and it is still difficult to understand what is going on with the atmosphere between Xu Yunjin and Shi Junji, let alone the relationship between the two , so he couldn't speak out his question well, Xu Yunjin realized it later, and didn't answer it.

Not getting the answer he wanted, the eldest prince was a little unhappy, and raised his voice slightly: "This is the Changping Palace of the father, how can you sit here?"

Shi Junji, who was pretending to be reviewing the memorial, has been paying attention to the situation here, wanting to see how the eldest prince and Xu Yunjin get along, but unexpectedly hearing such words, Shi Junji's expression darkened immediately: "The eldest prince , why are you talking to you... Uncle Xu?"

The eldest prince was so frightened that he shrank his neck and rubbed against Xu Yunjin. He knew that he would only call himself the eldest prince when his father was in a bad mood, but, Uncle Xu?The eldest prince secretly glanced at Xu Yunjin, why did his father ask him to call him Uncle Xu?

Xu Yunjin touched the eldest prince's head comfortingly, raised his head and complained to Shi Junji: "But I'm still a child, why should I be so strict?"

Shi Junji explained: "Where is it so strict? He is the prince who will be the crown prince in the future. He is not too young now, and he should know everything he should know. If he is always so confused, he will not even be able to understand the surrounding situation." , why talk about what kind of emperor you will be in the future?"

Xu Yunjin was not born in the royal family, so of course he doesn’t know what the royal family’s education is like. It’s hard to refute what Shi Junji said. He can only listen to Shi Junji, and he will not argue with Shi Junji anymore. Shi Junji Heaved a sigh of relief, and turned to ask the First Prince: "Why are you here to see me?"

The eldest prince's expression changed, and he suddenly became serious: "I want to report to my father, my son is here to report the studies of our three brothers to you, my father."

Shi Junji nodded: "Speak."

Then the eldest prince talked about what Jing had learned these days, and also talked about the learning process of the three brothers. Afterwards, Shi Junji took the school exam again, and found that the eldest prince answered very smoothly, so he nodded in satisfaction. , and finally said: "It is not enough to only know the things in these books. The combination of content and what you actually learned can get twice the result with half the effort.”

"Yes, my son obeys the teachings of the emperor."

Shi Junji gave an "en" and went to see Xu Yunjin, but he couldn't laugh or cry, Xu Yunjin was already sitting on the chair with sleepy eyes, so he couldn't help but softly said: "When you're tired, go inside and rest."

Xu Yunjin cheered up: "It's over?"

Shi Junji nodded: "If you are asleep, go in and sleep, and I will go in after a while."

Xu Yunjin said again: "When I was young, I went to study, and I was so sleepy after my husband said less than ten sentences on it. After twenty sentences, I already slept more soundly than I slept on the bed at night. Sir, take me There was nothing I could do about it. Later, my father had to give up letting me study. He only learned to read all the characters, and everything else was up to me. I thought that this problem would be cured by now. I'm so sleepy again."

The First Prince couldn't help but said: "It must be good not to study, right?"

Seeing the admiration on the eldest prince's face, Xu Yunjin couldn't help laughing in his heart. Sure enough, children have the desire to sleep and play, and even the prince can't avoid it. It's just that he thinks so in his heart, but his face is very serious. If it's because of himself It would be a great sin for the next emperor not to read books: "You can't say that. Reading is still very useful. How can you understand so many great principles without reading? I have never read in my life. Now That is to say, the current official position will come to an end, and there is no hope in this life, but you will be the emperor in the future. If you don’t study like me, how can you be the emperor? Your father will definitely put You kicked off the position of the crown prince and let your younger brother be the crown prince, don't you think so?"

The eldest prince hurriedly shook his head: "The prince should read the book."

Shi Junji looked at Xu Yunjin helplessly, and said to the First Prince: "If you have nothing to do, then step back."

"Wait." Xu Yunjin stopped the eldest prince who was about to leave, he had his own little Jiujiu in his heart, this eldest prince was destined to be the next emperor, he didn't need to count on him, but his son Xu Shi, the future Xu family still had to count on him His, no matter what, he has to have a good relationship with the eldest prince, so he said, "Does the eldest prince like children?"

As soon as Xu Yunjin's words came out of his mouth, Shi Junji understood Xu Yunjin's intentions and did not stop him, allowing Xu Yunjin to talk to the First Prince without any intention of interrupting.

For Xu Yunjin, the person whom his father told him to call him Uncle Xu, the eldest prince neither likes nor dislikes him. He always has inexplicable and complicated feelings. Hearing Xu Yunjin's words, the eldest prince subconsciously went to see Shi Junji, hesitating. After a long time, he secretly leaned on Xu Yunjin's shoulder and replied, "I like it."

Xu Yunjin smiled: "Then I'll take you to see my little brother, okay?"

"Little brother?" The eldest prince tilted his head and asked suspiciously, "Do you mean the second and third princes?"

"Of course not." Xu Yunjin stood up and held the hand of the eldest prince, and walked slowly towards the inner hall, "Well, the little brother I mentioned is my son, and now he is younger than the third prince, and he can't walk yet. Can talk."

The eldest prince nodded ignorantly, seeing that Xu Yunjin was actually going to lead him into the inner hall, the eldest prince refused to leave: "Those who are not allowed to enter the inner hall by the prince are the father's place, and Uncle Xu is also not allowed to enter."

"It's okay." Xu Yunjin said softly, "Look, didn't your father stop us?"

The eldest prince turned his head to look at Shi Junji, only to see that Shi Junji was looking at them, his face was not ugly, he was even smiling, and he didn't make a sound to stop them, the eldest prince was relieved, Xu Yunjin didn't need to pull him this time , I can't wait to go inside.

Xu Shi was still sleeping, but his posture changed from lying flat just now to being sideways now, facing them, the eldest prince's poise completely disappeared, and he ran up to Xu Shi in front of him, poking at Xu Shi With a chubby face, he turned his head and asked Xu Yunjin, "Is this my little brother?"

Xu Yunjin was startled, and thought for a while: "It's my son, if you want, you can call him brother."

"Brother?" The eldest prince smiled slowly, "That's great, I have a younger brother too."
