Jingtai Fengyun: The First Absurd Emperor of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 713: The imperial concubine personally teaches the art of poisoning, and the prince is taught how to be vigilant
Mu Yu smiled and said, "That man of yours is a thief, even a fox is not as good as him. When the Tumu Fort Incident first happened, he threatened the then Queen Mother and the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and forced himself to be the King of Tan. Promoted to King Qi.

After ascending the throne, he has been clinging to the position of King Qi and not letting go.At first, others thought he was doing something unnecessary and had some mental problem, but in fact, this move was quite cruel.

For example, in Shandong today, except for Qufu and its surrounding areas, which are under the influence of King Lu, the rest are under the influence of King Qi's palace.Next, your father should hand over Shandong to your control and let you win over the hearts of the people in Shandong and serve as the basis for ruling the world.

Your father gave you the position of King Qi, you must cherish it.From now on, in the name of King Qi, you will be able to do many things that are inconvenient to do as a prince or emperor. "

Zhu Wenfang nodded: "Thank you for your teaching, I will remember it."

Mu Yu asked again: "How do you eat in Kunning Palace?"

Zhu Wenfang replied: "We didn't eat the food from Shang Shanjian, so we made a small temporary kitchen ourselves and asked for the ingredients. The nanny and nanny cooked them."

"Well, that's right. The methods of the eunuchs and palace maids in the inner court are unpredictable. If you want to ensure your own safety, you have to go to the extreme like your father did and only eat food cooked by your own woman."

Zhu Wenfang asked curiously: "My mother-in-law admires my father so much, why doesn't she live with him?"

Mu Yu was stunned by the question. After a while, she saw the confusion in Zhu Wenfang's eyes getting deeper and deeper, so she could only lean into Zhu Wenfang's ear and whisper a few words.

Zhu Wenfang's eyes widened when he heard this: "No wonder dad doesn't allow me to enter Lingyu Palace. He is too cunning and weird. I wonder how the five mothers and concubines who live in Lingyu Palace have survived until now."

Mu Yu shook her head: "Women are different from each other. Those five crazy girls in Lingyu Palace are still enjoying themselves and competing for favor every day.

We privately nicknamed them Lingyu Five Crazy Girls. "

Zhu Wenfang shook his head completely: "I really can't understand the love between father and mother and concubines."

Mu Yu smiled and said: "Not to mention the six wonderful flowers, you two are here just in time. I am not good at anything else, so I will teach you two how to prevent the palace people from cheating you."

When Zhu Wenfang and Xu Qing heard this, they both became energetic and quickly sat up straight and listened carefully.

Mu Yu instructed: "There are very few people in the palace who directly administer arsenic or other highly toxic poisons when they come up. If they want to poison, they will choose very hidden and chronic poisons.

The most commonly used ones are lead and mercury.

And generally, people do not regard lead and mercury as poisons.

For example, imperial doctors made lead into white frost and used it as an important ingredient in soothing soup.

Drinking this stuff will make people listless and drowsy.

Ordinary people generally won't drink this kind of crap.But the princes and princesses in the palace will be energetic and energetic if they eat well and use them well.

In the past, the concubines in the palace were afraid that their children would make endless noises and cause trouble, so they would give them soothing soup.

Princes and princesses often drink soothing soup, and they naturally become calm.It won't cause trouble, but taking it for a long time will affect fertility and even shorten your lifespan.This is also an important reason why princes and princesses often die young.

For example, Xiaoer Jingfeng Powder is composed of five herbs: cinnabar, realgar, whole scorpion, fried silkworm, and licorice. It can be said to have all five poisons.

Children will be calmer after eating this stuff, but they will suffer from mercury poisoning.

One lead and one mercury, they are subtle. If you don't take precautions, you will easily suffer a big loss.

And the most important thing is that many palace maids and eunuchs know it, but they won't tell you even to death.

You are still there drinking stupidly, but they are already happy in their hearts.

Also, if you give birth to a child, it is important not to raise a cat.Many babies in the palace were frightened to death because the palace residents allowed cats and dogs to make noises.

There are too many tricks here. I will summarize a pamphlet for you later, so be sure to read it carefully.

You must always be prepared for danger in times of peace, and never think that no one will kill the emperor or the prince.

In the words of your father, when an emperor thinks that his safety is at ease, then he is almost alive. "

Zhu Wenfang and Xu Qing both stood up and knelt down to thank Mu Yu.Mu Yu quickly supported him, and then teased: "I only hope that you will grow up quickly and take over all the responsibilities.

In order to spread the branches and leaves of your father, establish a vassal king, and consolidate the throne of his lineage, I have given birth to three children.

You must quickly take over the responsibility for spreading the branches in the future. I can’t do it again.

To be honest with you, if it weren't for nothing, I really wouldn't want to have any children.Not many of you mothers and concubines want to have children. You see, Ningxiang, Qianxue, and Su Xi, relying on your father's doting and their young age, have delayed having children until now. "

Zhu Wenfang replied: "I only want to love Qing'er, and I don't want to accept other women."

"Are you serious?"

Zhu Wenfang nodded solemnly.

Mu Yu was stunned for a long time, and then her defense was broken. She waved her hand firmly: "You can do whatever you like. Anyway, I will kill you."

Chaoyun echoed from the side: "I have given birth to three children, and I don't want to give birth to any more."

Seeing that the two mothers and concubines were completely lying down, Zhu Wenfang replied helplessly: "Er Chen and Qing'er should have as many children as possible. If they can give birth to three or four sons like Empress Taizong Wen, I won't accept other women." .

If it really doesn't work, I will have no choice but to follow my father's example and get a group of concubines. "

Mu Yu smiled and said: "This idea is right. Just like your father, he only likes the five crazy girls of Lingyu and treats the ten of us as mere reproductive tools. You can also follow suit."

Zhu Wenfang replied: "Dad actually loves every mother and concubine very much."

"I'm not finding fault. It's the so-called eating the emperor's salary and being loyal to the emperor. Your father has given us so much, and it is right to give him children.

As long as your father gives a casual shout, the beauties willing to be used as fertility tools for him in the Ming Dynasty can be queued from here all the way to Hehuan Palace.

Therefore, the term fertility tool is not a derogatory term. We are already very content and grateful.Being able to serve as a fertility tool for your father is a blessing we have gained over ten lifetimes. "

The mother and son chatted for a long time before Zhu Wenfang said goodbye and left.

After leaving Qionghua Island, Zhu Wenfang and Xu Qing went to the original Prince Qi's Mansion, now the Capital Literature and Martial Arts School.

This time they were accompanied by He Yi, Liu Chang, Wang Cheng, Shu Liang, Pei Dang, and Ruan Zhu.

He Yi was responsible for explaining to Zhu Wenfang and Xu Qing that this was the West Flower Hall, which was originally the place where the Emperor handled government affairs; there was the Jiangyun Pavilion, where the Emperor hosted banquets for civil servants and generals. Liu Chang would also interject a few words from time to time.

No one dares to use these places, they are all left as they are.

He Yi and Liu Chang have experienced that period completely, and now that they are revisiting their old places, they are recalling the hardships and thinking about the sweetness.

In addition, Zhu Wenfang also paid a special visit to the Great Library of the Capital Academy.

Soon, Zhu Wenfang was attracted by "Records of Jingtai" on the bookshelf on the first floor.

This book is displayed very conspicuously, He Yi explained: "This is a must-read for students, recording major and minor events from one year to five years in Jingtai.

You can read it later and ask me if you don’t understand.I dare not tell you about other books, but I am the one who presided over the compilation of "Records of Jingtai", and I know all the inside stories in it. "

Zhu Wenfang took out one of the volumes, flipped through it for a moment, and then exclaimed: "The new king breaks the formation and kills the three kings? Who is the king here?"

He Yi smiled and said: "Of course it was the Holy One who came to the city first. The Holy One personally attacked and killed the three Polo brothers. These three were not only Ye Xian's younger brothers, but also the princes of Meng Yuan."

Hearing this, Zhu Wenfang looked confused: "Really or not, is daddy so powerful?"

He Yi replied: "Of course, if you don't believe it, go back and ask. The Qingyun Sword that was used to kill the three kings is now hanging in the Lingyu Palace. If you ask for it, the Holy One will definitely give it to you."

Zhu Wenfang nodded: "I have to read the "Records of Jingtai" carefully later. I always thought that my father was a weak monk with an immortal spirit."
