rich concubine

Chapter 1759 Doubt
Where does the resentment come from?

Tang Zirou snorted coldly and said, "Now, don't you think it's too late for you to ask me this? Do you want me to tell you the reason in detail?"

Zhu Jiandi closed his eyes, took a deep breath, restrained himself, and said: "No matter what the reason is, the Zheng family has collapsed, and she has no one to rely on. In these years, even with the blessing of the imperial grandmother, she has not You are living a good life, but even so, can’t Queen Mother still be able to relieve her anger?”

"Relieve the anger? I have been vomiting for most of my life, how can it be relieved so easily? Others don't understand me. As my son, can't you still understand my intentions?"

Zhu Jiandi: "..."

"At first, her mother was a noble girl from a high-ranking family, but I was just a little-known daughter of a small family. After I entered the palace, I looked at her as if I were looking at a god. That was something I never knew. Dare to think about existence, but if I had been weaker and cowardly, how would I be where you are today?"

"..."

"The Tian family is the most ruthless. Even my own wife is very defensive. When I knew that the emperor and queen at that time had no feelings, I knew that my chance had come. I was just from an ordinary background. But in terms of appearance and talent, I am not inferior to those noble girls. If I have a bad background, I will have a hard time, ha... When I was pressed to the ground by a high-ranking concubine and slapped and kneeled involuntarily, I Just tell yourself, never let me seize the opportunity. Once I climb up, those who have bullied me will die!"

After that, she looked at her grown-up son. He was no longer the child who held her hand and refused to let go when he was young. He grew up and became ambitious. Sometimes, as a mother, she , can't guess what he is thinking.

She said: "You are now blaming the queen for being too cruel to her, but you have to know that without your mother's cruelty, you would have been just a lowly prince. Who would see you? Who would care about you? Those who come from a lower background Better concubine, once you have a son, as my Tang Zirou's son, can you grow up safely under their guard?"

Zhu Jiandi was speechless. He grew up in this deep palace. Even if he didn't want to, he had witnessed many dark and disgusting things. He knew that his mother was not alarmist, but...

"My son knows that his mother has suffered and suffered over the years, and everything is for his son. However, now that the country of Zhu is in dilapidated state, the mother's original grudges have long been paid off one by one. Those who have bullied his mother have long since paid off. She went underground to repent, but Princess Nanning... is innocent after all."

When he said this, his eyes darkened, and he added: "She is helpless in this deep palace. The imperial grandmother is old. She will have to endure this change for an unknown amount of time. By then, there will be no one left." I can protect her, but she doesn’t have a biological brother to support her, how can her life be easy?”

Empress Tang frowned. She wanted to refuse and tell him that the descendants of the Zheng family would be trampled under her feet for the rest of their lives and would never stand up again. It was rare to see him caring so much about Nanning. He suppressed the impatience in his heart and just said: "You have never had any affection for her, and I have never seen you. Which brother or sister in this palace have you ever been close to? Why do you want to talk to her now?"

Zhu Jiandi's eyes flashed slightly, but his expression did not change. He just said: "The state of Zhu has become like this. It is impossible to revive it in a short time. The state of Meng is looking at me with eager eyes, like a tiger biting my neck. I can only surrender the city obediently and become a slave to the subjugation of the country, but... I am not willing to be suppressed to this point, and I have to humiliate the princess. Mother, I am not for Nanning, but for the royal family of the Zhu Kingdom. A little face." This reason makes sense. Empress Tang took a deep breath and her eyes softened a lot. She knew that her son was a bloodline of the Zhu family after all. He was the most ruthless and cold-blooded man, so how much emotion could he have?I was really worried just now that my son would have sympathy for the daughter born by that woman. Then she would really become a joke in these years.

She said: "If this is the reason for you, you don't need to say anymore. I have been unhappy these days. It took a lot of effort to get to this position. When your father is unable to govern, I see that the entire Zhu Kingdom belongs to you, mother and son." , but... you were defeated like this by your father! How hateful! I have no face for a long time!"

Facing his mother's anger, Zhu Jiandi was obviously much calmer. Women have always been short-sighted and ignorant of political affairs. What has his mother done in these years?Although he supported someone who could flatter her and couldn't do practical things, but could make her happy, even though he was her son, he knew very well that the Tang family was an unknown person, unable to take on big responsibilities, and they didn't have much. Through experience, the way of life is even more shallow. Just because a daughter was born in the family, one person has achieved enlightenment, and chickens and dogs have ascended to heaven. Such a family with little ability is mentioned in an exceptional way, sitting in a place that does not belong to them. The role played by them in their positions is also conceivable.

Virtue does not match...it is really sad!
However, the queen mother never saw this. She only knew that the Tang family had become more prosperous, and its reputation once surpassed that of the Zheng family, and they became true relatives of the emperor. This was all caused by short-sightedness.

If this was not his biological mother, he would inevitably have to question why his father had such a soft spot for his mother. She was really not a good match.

Now that he knew his mother's determination, Zhu Jiandi stopped talking. He only said: "Since my mother is determined like this, I have nothing to say. Since I have decided on her, let her go. Government affairs are busy, so I will go ahead." Resign."

After Zhu Jiandi left, Empress Tang did not feel relieved. She took a deep breath, closed her eyes and leaned on the recliner. Aunt Zhang behind her immediately came to massage and relax her.

Empress Tang was silent for a long time and then said: "Send a few smart people to keep an eye on His Highness to see if he has been to Nanning these days."

Nanny Zhang was startled, but she didn't say much. She just hurriedly went down to give instructions. After a while, she came in. Seeing the empress closing her eyes and taking a nap, she became quiet for a moment.

But after a while, I suddenly heard the empress sneer and said: "Do you think I am too suspicious? Now I even have to take care of my own son."

An old man like Aunt Zhang, who has been in the palace for many years, naturally knows all kinds of nonsense: "Your Majesty, you just care about Your Highness, how can you say you are suspicious?"
