Chapter 67: In the Emperor's House

Chapter 67
Unexpectedly, the old eunuch felt distressed again and said: "Your Majesty, it's cold on the ground, you have to take care of the dragon's body, why don't you go back to the palace!"

Zi Zechuan didn't get up, and the old eunuch didn't dare to stand when he saw this, so he had to kneel and sit beside Zi Zechuan.

Only then did Zi Zechuan start to talk: "The empress has been ambitious since she entered the harem, but at that time, according to the situation of their Lei family, how could I not pay attention to it. I met her when I was only a prince, and I wanted to In a husband and wife relationship, this left the second place to her, but I didn't expect her to be dissatisfied."

The old eunuch could only listen quietly, didn't say anything, didn't ask anything.Because only he knows that the emperor's face is serious and fickle, but his heart is unavoidably fragile, just like ordinary people.

Zi Zechuan paused for a moment, and then said: "In this harem, only Concubine Shu treats me sincerely. I gave her everything that should have been given to Concubine Shu. After all, she still won't let go. She wants to If you want this Zi family to be changed to her Lei family, have you asked Prince Xi if he agrees?"

He smiled self-deprecatingly, he used to be majestic to the world, how can he be afraid of people, who would dare to despise the imperial power.Now that King Xi is persecuting him, he can only back down step by step, and there is no way out in the end.

Looking at the row of spiritual seats, his children couldn't protect him, and he couldn't get out of it.Think about it, all this is not because he is too weak, but because King Xi is too strong.

The old eunuch finally couldn't bear it and comforted him with a voice: "Your Majesty, Concubine Shu really wants to share the emperor's worries. As for the Empress, it must be because of love and hatred, which blinded her mind for a while."

Zi Zechuan's expression was gloomy, and she said that love breeds hatred, isn't that what she is like in Lei Jingjing.At that time, he was one person under ten thousand people, so he clinged to him, saying that husband and wife have the same blessings and share the same difficulties. Until later, after she was given the position of queen, she became more and more presumptuous in the harem.

And Zi Zechuan turned a blind eye on the surface, but the dispute between these women became more and more on his head.If you talk about the concubines in the harem, let me ask, the emperors of that generation didn't have three thousand beauties.As an emperor, he should have many last resorts. Many times, he does not have the right to completely refuse no matter whether it is a woman who is donated by a minister in the court or a woman who is a tribute from another country.

But as a queen, why is she so narrow-minded because of her mother's respect for the world?

In fact, they have been married for many years, how could Zi Zechuan fail to see her ambition.Lei's wanted to occupy the world of his Zi family, so why did he pay attention to it?His Zi family has no shortage of talents. Whether it was him who was powerful in the world back then, or King Xi who is now ambitious in the world, it is impossible for her Lei family to dominate the world.

Facing the spirit seat of the Eighth Prince, Zi Zechuan thought of what happened with Epi Jingjing.The authorities were confused by the onlookers, and in his heart, he always felt that Shang'er was the King Xi back then, and that once he became powerful, he would usurp the throne.But only others could see that he really only wanted to protect his father.

As for himself, maybe he was really afraid or selfish, and kept him just to check and balance King Xi.If it wasn't for King Xi's rebellion, as the queen said, he would really have killed him.

But once the situation changed, King Xi would not even let his nephew go.

"You and I have been in this palace for decades, and we have spent our entire lives in this palace. We have seen the warmth and warmth of people in the palace. Shang'er was my favorite prince before, and you were also brought up. In your eyes, has Shang'er ever Changed?" Since he couldn't see clearly, he could only ask the people around him, or the most loyal people.

When the eighth prince was mentioned as a child, the old eunuch grinned: "Back to the emperor, this old slave thinks that the eighth prince has never changed, it has only changed with time, but the eighth prince is definitely the one who cares about the emperor the most among all the princes."

Zi Zechuan raised his head and sighed in relief, tears seemed to flicker in his eyes, but they disappeared in the blink of an eye.How painful it must be in his heart, one always feels remorse and sees the truth clearly when losing another.

He asked his own voice: "Do you think I am a qualified father?"

The old eunuch's expression became serious, and he replied: "The emperor is the king of a country. No matter what he does, he always has his own last resort. No matter what others think, in the heart of this old slave, the emperor is the father of all people. What he protects is This is the Nine Moons, the people and the country."

He staggered Zi Zechuan's question from the front, and perhaps answered it from the side more clearly.

At the same time, just as Zi Zechuan said, the Eighth Prince was brought up by him alone, and his whereabouts are unknown now, with no bones left.How could he not be sad in his heart, sadness suddenly surfaced on his face.

For a long time, Zi Zechuan didn't speak again.

Until the old eunuch said: "Your Majesty, should you go back to the palace?"

"You said that Mu'er's death has something to do with King Xi?" He didn't intend to go back to the palace. During the silence just now, he thought for a long time.

He didn't dare to make random assertions about the crime of murdering the prince, so he had to remain silent.

Zi Zechuan had no choice but to say again: "Go down, leave me alone here to talk to them."

Seeing that he insisted on staying in the ancestral hall, the old eunuch had no choice but to quietly bow down and back out.
