Concubine Zheng's expression was a little indifferent, but it was quickly replaced by a face of determination, "We are fighting every day, what are we fighting for? We, who were so pure at the beginning, don't care about this big inner palace. I was looking forward to it deeply, but after I came here, I realized that this is a place that cannibalize people without spitting out their bones. How many people have died for no reason after so many years? When I entered the palace, the queen asked me to find a reason How many people were killed? My original wish was very simple, and that was to survive."

"Work hard to exclude others, strive hard to win favor, work hard to hold favor, and finally get the emperor's favor, but you are still walking on thin ice. Countless pairs of eyes around you are looking at you, the emperor will get bored with you sooner or later, At that time, what can you leave behind? Only by pushing your son into that position can your own position be consolidated, but in the end? The person who keeps saying that he loves himself is like his life, but he has done nothing, and he has nothing to say It's really ironic."

Sighing softly, Concubine Zheng continued: "But you are different from me. My son failed to become the crown prince. You hold the crown prince in your hands, so you hold the lifeblood of this country." A trace of excitement flashed in Concubine Zheng's eyes, and her whole body was full of naked desire. This dignified woman seemed to be a different person at this time, becoming more gloomy and colder.

"Your man is different from mine. He is going to die soon. You just need to control the prince." Smiling and looking at Li Xuanshi, Concubine Zheng didn't speak, she seemed to be lost in memory.

When the two women were talking, the prince was also thinking, but no one could conspire with him, lying on a comfortable rocking chair, slowly recalling the real history.

Emperor Wanli is one of the rare mean and ungrateful emperors in history, but there is one exception, that is Concubine Zheng Gui.The Concubine Zheng was so used to the Six Palaces, the Emperor Wanli always wanted to abolish the elders and establish the young, and made Concubine Zheng's son Fu Wang the crown prince.Taichang, the eldest son of his son, ignored him, and even didn't see each other for a few years, which caused Taichang to be bullied all the time, and eventually led to Taichang's cowardly and timid character.

Our protagonist Tianqi Emperor Zhu Youxiao grew up in such an environment. He didn't care for him since he was a child. His biological mother died. The attendant Li Xuan of the West Palace also beat and scolded him. His father didn't even dare to get angry. dare not speak.What's even more ridiculous is that the emperor had never read a book. Emperor Tianqi was 16 years old when he succeeded to the throne, and Emperor Wanli had only passed away for a month.When Wanli was in power, he was indifferent to Taichang emperor, let alone this grandson.

Naturally, there is no such thing as a good education. He has no teacher, and no one cares about him. There are only two people around him, that is, Li Jinzhong and Ke Baba.The two people who watched Emperor Taichang grow up were Emperor Taichang's inner support. Kebaba took care of Emperor Taichang like a mother, but Emperor Taichang also regarded her as his mother.

As for Li Jinzhong, he was not only Emperor Taichang's playmate, but also Emperor Taichang's father. He and Ke Baba replaced the roles that should have been parents.This is why Emperor Taichang trusted these two people so much later. Emperor Taichang had great trust in the two people who were in trouble with him.

Later, Li Jinzhong killed Emperor Taichang's son for the sake of power. Perhaps no one would have thought of it at this time!Including Li Jinzhong.

It's just that Ye Xiang is also very puzzled at this time, why the legendary nine thousand years old hasn't appeared yet?Didn't it mean that Li Jinzhong was by his side when Emperor Tianqi was young?

Looking back at Li Jinzhong behind him, Ye Xiang smiled softly, and said lightly: "I haven't seen Ke Baba for a few days, what is she doing these days? Why didn't she come to see me?"

Li Jinzhong was becoming more and more cautious at this time. In his heart, he seemed to feel that the prince had changed, but he didn't just say it out, so he could only deal with it carefully.Glancing at the still-faced prince, he said with a smile: "Return to Your Highness, Ke Baba is very guilty because of what happened last time, and will retreat in the Buddhist hall for a month, first to atone for his sins, and second, to pray for His Highness."

Nodding his head slowly, Ye Xiang felt a little strange, he really didn't know what to do with Li Jinzhong and Ke Baba!Killing him directly is definitely not a good way, not only will it leave an impression of being mean and ungrateful, but also for Li Jinzhong, Ye Xiang always has something he can use.What disturbed Ye Xiang the most was that the great eunuch who would dominate the world in the future did not know where he was at this moment!Ye Xiang couldn't help wondering whether he came to this era, whether it was the dynasty he knew in history.

For this dynasty, Ye Xiang has a very intuitive understanding, whether it is the political system or the humanistic customs, they are all very different.The ministers in those halls are full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, but Dongchang Jinyiwei is much more useful for what they really want to do, and they are needed for many high-level things.Ye Xiang has thought about a lot of things these days. This country is already riddled with holes. To manage it well, he has to adopt some shady means.How can a talent like Li Jinzhong be turned away?Besides, for so many years in the Ming Dynasty, all the authoritarian eunuchs were all acquiesced by the emperor.The Ming Dynasty emphasized civility over military affairs, and military officers in the court could not check and balance civil and military affairs like other dynasties. The status of military officers was too low.If there is no Dongchang Jinyiwei, those ministers will still be turned upside down?

After sorting out his chaotic thoughts, he turned his head and said to Li Jinzhong: "I heard that there are many people with high martial arts skills in Dongchang. I don't know if it is true or not?"

Glancing at the smiling prince, Li Jinzhong didn't know why the prince suddenly became interested in this matter, but he had been coveting Dongchang for a long time, so he naturally knew these things.After pondering for a while, he said: "His Royal Highness, yes, there are many strange people and strange things in Dongchang, and there are also many martial arts masters, and their kung fu is very powerful."

"Oh, so there really are, do you know where you can get weapons?" After pondering for a while, Ye Xiang pretended to be careless and said.He knew that the palace would not be peaceful in the next few days, so it was better for him to prepare a weapon, not only to ensure his own safety, but also to deter others.

Li Jinzhong was stunned at this time, he didn't expect the prince to want weapons, how could this be good, how could the palace officials hold weapons casually.After thinking for a while, Li Jinzhong said: "Go back to Your Highness, the guards in the palace have weapons, and the brocade guards have embroidered spring knives. I wonder what Your Highness wants?"
