Yu Tang Golden Boudoir

Chapter 319
The fifth prince galloped back and entered the main courtyard all the way. As soon as he turned in front of the Chuihua Gate, he was stopped by Madam Xiong: "Master just came back from the imperial mausoleum, so I should wash and change clothes before going in. The princess is pregnant. There are many taboo places." The fifth prince responded, stretched his neck to look into the courtyard and asked: "Is Tian Tian better? Are you still vomiting?"

"It's much better. The hot water is ready. Grandpa hasten to wash up." Mammy Xiong asked and pushed the Fifth Prince to the side yard to wash up and change clothes before letting him into the upper room.When Li Tian came out, the fifth prince was startled: "Why are you up? Go back and lie down!"

"I'm fine." Li Tian was helped back to the kang by the fifth prince and smiled. The fifth prince held Li Tian's hand and looked closely at Li Tian's face several times. Seeing Li Tian's complexion was rosy, he felt relieved He took a breath and said, "You are a twin, so you have to be extra careful."

"En." Li Tian responded meekly: "I'll ask someone to prepare the meal quickly, you have a good rest after eating, what time will you enter the palace tomorrow?" "At the beginning of Yin, he was banned, the crown prince ascended the throne, concubine concubine, congratulations, and then Jia Enke, this busy another month! Give me a bowl of soup first! I haven't seen the smell of meat for a month!" The meal was set The fifth prince didn't bother to talk anymore, he even drank two bowls of soup, and ate another bowl of rice. He sighed with satisfaction while stroking his full stomach, Li Tian took the tea from Qing Zhi and handed it to the fifth prince. The prince signaled everyone to back down, took a plate of honey and plums, weighed them and put them in his mouth, looked at the fifth prince and said, "I have a few words, I think, I'd better tell you." The fifth prince was stunned, Looking at Li Tian suspiciously, Li Tian lowered his eyes and continued: "My grandmother, Mrs. Lin has always been different from the common people. Back then, Leng Mingsong was chosen by my grandmother, and also by myself." Li Tian paused. He raised his head and looked at the fifth prince, who opened his mouth, but swallowed the words again, lowered his eyes and sipped his tea, waiting for Li Tian to continue.

"Wen Ru, I chose Leng Mingsong's articles. My original plan was to live my life in peace, to find a man with no ambitions, no skills and no temper. I personally enjoy flowers and plants, raise dogs and birds, drink a glass of wine and recite a few lines of sour poems, and just live my life like this. Leng Mingsong's articles are indifferent and casual, and the person who comes here is also a person who does not seek great merit, so I chose him, who knows Later, the marriage failed." Li Tian sighed softly: "Later, I fell in love with Xu Sijing, the Jiulang of Xu Xueshi's family. You know the situation, I am in a difficult situation." Li Tian sighed again: "Jiang Hong has outstanding character, outstanding talent, outstanding scheming, and even more outstanding ambition. It’s the lesser of two evils.”

"Weigh the lesser of two evils!" The fifth prince wanted to laugh and then coughed hard: "Tiantian, don't get me wrong, I didn't suspect you...I mean, I didn't mean that, listen to me." The prince moved, leaned to Li Tian's side and said in a low voice: "Fourth brother walked so simply. I didn't expect that we both are greedy for life and afraid of death. Indeed, it is better to live than to die." The fifth prince laughed at himself : "I thought that the fourth brother would go away incognito, but I didn't expect him to leave with just such a glass of poisoned wine. He left, and Concubine Ye Gui also left. Mrs. Sun died of illness. Mr. Yao told me yesterday that after the crown prince ascended the throne, he Just hand over the booklet and resign, the fourth brother’s family, just like this, a bloody catastrophe disappears invisible, but in this dynasty, in a blink of an eye, it has become the only one, and I, the one!” The fifth prince smiled bitterly: "When Dad was alive, I followed the prince and fought with the fourth brother to the death. Now that the prince has become an official and the fourth brother is gone, I am the only one left in the court."

Li Tian suddenly said 'oh', and the fifth prince chuckled and hugged her: "Do you understand what I mean? Oh, Tian Tian, ​​it's not that I didn't think about leaving everything alone and just being a rich and idle person with peace of mind, but you Think about it, we have six brothers, the second brother died of illness, the third brother guarded the mausoleum, the fourth brother died, and the sixth child... the crown prince will probably not use him, it is only me, why would the crown prince let me live in the mountains? Besides, this dynasty There is also no example of a prince who is rich and honored and only cares about it. I can't do it for a while, and I can't do it." Li Tian sighed when he heard it, it was true, and the fifth prince also sighed as he hugged her: "So I had to think more, instead of asking the prince to set me up as an opponent, I might as well set up one myself first, Jiang Hong has the talent of a gentleman, he is worthy of being opposed to me, and the prince will definitely use him if he is opposed to me. Tian Tian, ​​I didn't doubt you."

Li Tian gave him a sideways glance, and the fifth prince pressed his hands lightly on Li Tian's abdomen, giggling and saying, "The two of us are a match made in heaven. To be honest, I sympathize with Jiang Hong, like you Like this, there is absolutely no second person in this world, and poor Jiang Hong is someone who will never give up, I see, he will suffer like this all his life!" The fifth prince couldn't help laughing a few times, laughing The voice was so joyful that Li Tian only felt black lines all over his head. Is he sympathizing or gloating at the joke?

"Tian Tian, ​​how long will it take to conceive the child?" The fifth prince moved his hand carefully on Li Tian's abdomen, changed the subject and asked, Li Tian gave him a sideways glance speechlessly: "October is pregnant, of course. Ten months."

"Ten months?" The fifth prince lamented, "How about..." Li Tian dragged his voice, "I'll buy you some beauties to serve you closely?"

"I don't know the origin of the ones bought from outside, and they are not clean. Don't want it." The fifth prince shook his head and refused, "Then choose the ones that know the origin, such as the peach red from Lancuilou." Li Tian continued to suggest, leaning to the fifth prince. The prince then shook his head: "Not to mention! How can I let these ladies take advantage of me!"

"Then what should I do? Or, which girl in this house would you like to see, and open her face to serve you?"

"Forget it!" The fifth prince frowned like a toothache and said, "What's the point of letting them wait on you? Forget it, I'll bear it and forget it. Alas, ten months, no wonder people say that giving birth to a child is not easy. It really hurts me." Li Tian looked at him with a smile, angry and speechless, before she complained, he complained first.

A few days after the new emperor's enthronement ceremony and concubine's canonization ceremony, Ye Twelve Niang rushed to Rexiaoli and married into the Yao family in a deserted manner.Almost the next day, Censor Zou Qing made a public report, impeaching Yao Yuanzheng, the eldest son of Yao Xianggong, for robbing people's wealth and killing people, etc. with fierce words. In Shuxing, Yao Xianggong evaded resignation papers and handed them in but refused to publish them. However, after a day or two of waiting and watching, the papers impeaching the Yao family’s lawlessness flew into the prison like snowflakes, and they were taken out of the Dongyang County Palace from the Yao family. Xianggong and Jiang Xianggong jointly recommended the fifth prince, and the fifth prince didn't refuse, he quickly cut through the mess, and within half a month, the case was resolved: Yao Yuanzheng sent five thousand miles, Yao Xiang was not strict in governing the family, and he was demoted to the people. There were far more crimes committed by the Yao family. For the sake of concubine Ye Gui, who was buried with the late emperor, the officials gave him a lighter punishment and took away the title of Duke of Dongyang County. Under the supervision of the magistrate.

Looking at Zhu Hong's imperial criticism, Li Tian's high-pitched heart finally fell back. The official family finally lived up to their reputation of benevolence and did not commit mass murder. Although the Ye family lost their title, their lives were finally saved. This is extremely rare.
