"It can't be said that there is any problem, nor can it be said that there are ulterior motives. The marriage between their family and the royal family is originally very utilitarian. It's just..." Mr. Jiang sighed with a regretful expression, "This pair of aunt and nephew and Yongjia The relationship between the emperors is indeed a little subtle, and the relationship between Queen Kangshun and Emperor Yongjia, unlike other imperial concubines, does have a little bit of love and hatred."

"Love and Hatred?"

Hearing this word, everyone's eyes lit up. Even Zhen Buhui, who was lying on the imperial concubine's couch and taking a nap, suddenly sat up and looked at Mr. Jiang with a lively look.

"You..." Seeing that Zhen Buhui was awake, Mr. Jiang really didn't know what to say, "You are really interested in all kinds of gossip, aren't you?"

"Yes!" Xue Ruitian, Jin Miaomiao and Jin Jing said in unison. After saying that, the three people high-fived each other to show their tacit understanding.

"Second Grandpa, please stop feeling emotional and tell me quickly what love, hate and enmity there are."

"Okay, I won't sigh, let me tell you." When Jiang Erye saw Zhen Buhui getting up, he drove him up, lay down on him again, and said slowly, "Where is Emperor Yongjia, from the beginning He was not a candidate for the crown prince. He was neither heir nor eldest son. According to the rules of the previous dynasty, he was not qualified to inherit the throne. Therefore, from the beginning, he was rushing to be a carefree and idle prince. of."

"Well, that's what happened!" Shen Cha thought for a moment and nodded slightly, "It was said that because Emperor Yongjia's brothers all encountered misfortunes, he had no choice but to become the prince. He was given the title from the fiefdom, which is Yongzhou. You were called back, right?"

"You know very well!"

"There is nothing we can do about it." Shen Cha smiled at Uncle Qi, "In the years when I was recovering from illness, I was willing to read these history books when I had nothing to do. Whether they were official history or unofficial history, I liked reading them. Brother, Brother Xiaotian, Brother Xiaojing, Miaomiao and several younger brothers knew that I liked this, so they all found many similar books to relieve my boredom. Maybe they had not read them, but I must have read them all. "

"Before giving it to you, we will look through it and have a rough look." Xue Ruitian patted Shen Cha on the head, "Not all books will be shown to you, they must be checked. Any books that are out of date or not suitable for you will be rejected. Detained by us."

"Oh, that's right!" Shen Cha looked at Xue Ruitian, then turned to look at Shen Haolin, "Brother also reads these... um, Xianshu?"

"Look!" Shen Haolin chuckled, "It's a check and a way to relieve boredom. But I don't have much interest in the love affairs of the previous royal family, and there won't be any of them in the book."

"Those who have these will not only be unable to pass our level, but also those of our parents." Xue Ruitian chuckled, "If your parents see that the books we gave you have not screened out these things, then we will be beaten. ”

"Xiaocha, it's not easy for you to read a book."

"I think so." Shen Cha nodded slightly, "But I don't know if the rumors about Emperor Yongjia's accession to the throne are true. After all, it is an unofficial history, so I'm afraid it can't be counted."

"It's true." Mr. Jiang nodded, "I have read records about this in the files in the darkroom. When Emperor Yongjia was 12 years old, he was named King of Yongzhou. His fiefdom was in Yongzhou, and he was not allowed to enter the capital without declaration. ."    "No entry into Beijing without an announcement? Is it specifically aimed at Emperor Yongjia? Does he have ambitions for the throne?"

"No, this is not directed at Emperor Yongjia. All princes who have been granted the title of king or have gone to fiefdoms have the same requirements. Without His Majesty's summons, they are not allowed to return to the capital without permission. Returning to the capital without permission means that you are suspected of seeking power. Usurping the throne." Second Master Jiang spread his hands, "Then Emperor Yongjia set off for the fiefdom in the second year after he was crowned king. On the way, he met the Zhou family who were preparing to go back to their hometown to worship their ancestors, which was the natal family of Queen Kangshun. At that time, Queen Kangshun was only eleven or twelve years old, and she was still a child. She was at the age where she liked to have fun. Emperor Yongjia and Queen Kangshun were similar in age and had similar interests. The two children could play together and chat. place."

"The Zhou family?" Xue Ruitian frowned slightly, "The Zhou family in Yongzhou?"

"Yes!" Mr. Jiang smiled, "Isn't it a coincidence?"

"It's really a coincidence. Emperor Yongjia's fiefdom is in Yongzhou, and the Zhou family is the first family in Yongzhou. The power and majesty are in Yongzhou, but it is greater than the royal family. Emperor Yongjia, a young prince, is afraid that when he first comes to someone else's territory, He has to endure a lot of hardships! However, if he has a close relationship with the young lady of the Zhou family, the Zhou family might be able to give him some face, right? "

"It's just that the relationship is very close, so it's not good." Second Master Jiang gently shook his finger, "Although Emperor Yongjia is only a prince, after all, he is in his own territory, and the Zhou family is still a little wary. So. , their family wanted to use Emperor Yongjia to consolidate their power and prestige in Yongzhou, so the only thing they could do was to marry a girl of the right age in the family. With their family background, they would definitely not be able to become the Princess of Yongzhou, but the key to making a Concubine, that’s more than enough.”

"Emperor Yongjia doesn't feel that he is being used?"

"Of course not." Second Master Jiang shook his head, "After all, a strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local snake. He and Queen Kangshun are in love again. It is a good thing that the two of them are married. Therefore, the two parties hit it off immediately. Emperor Yongjia reported to the palace that he had adopted the second daughter of the Zhou family in Yongzhou as his concubine, and the palace was overjoyed. In the spring of the second year after Emperor Yongjia arrived in Yongzhou, he picked an auspicious day and held the canonization ceremony."

"So, there is actually feelings between the two of them, right?"

"That's right." Mr. Jiang smiled, "After they got married, the couple was in harmony and lived a good life for almost ten years. During these ten years, the only Queen Kangshun in the back house of the Yongzhou Palace was Queen Kangshun. Man, Emperor Yongjia did not accept a second concubine, nor did he find a suitable principal concubine."

"What happened next? How did Queen Kangshun's aunt get involved?"

"Because several of Emperor Yongjia's brothers died of illness and died in battle, the position of crown prince fell on Emperor Yongjia, who was still the king of Yongzhou at that time. Since he wanted to be canonized as crown prince, it was impossible for him to be crowned prince. Even if he is willful, we cannot let him have only Queen Kangshun, besides, he has not even had an heir for so many years."

"They have been together for ten years, and actually..."

"Isn't it strange?" Mr. Jiang gave a bad laugh, "The strangest thing is that this actually has nothing to do with Queen Kangshun. It is Emperor Yongjia's own problem."

After hearing what Jiang Erye said, Jin Miaomiao couldn't hold it back. Before she could swallow her sip of tea, she sprayed it directly on Zhen Buhui, who had just come over from the opposite side.
