Become a winner in life after binding the childbearing system
Chapter 695 Background Rabbit Spirit (67)
Whatever people pray for in their hearts is often what will actually happen.
Lin Xingzhi didn't want to receive any bad news about his adopted nephew on the road. As a result, when they left Jindun Town and were on their way forward for just a few days, an express letter from the capital caught them off guard.
The eldest prince born to that queen was unable to recover under the care of the imperial physicians and passed away at a young age.
Lin Xingzhi: ...
Shen Yao watched the whole process from the side, muttering in her heart that once the eldest prince was gone, the queen might go completely crazy.
Let’s not talk about how the emperor will respond for now. The key point is that the queen herself has great destructive power.
Lin Xingzhi smiled bitterly, "When we left the capital, the eldest prince even sent someone to deliver a farewell gift."
It was a very appropriate gift, and it also represented that the eldest prince was a sensible and polite person, but he cared too much about the feelings of others, thus neglecting himself, who he should care about the most.
As a result, just a few years later, before they could return, the eldest prince passed away. Alas, as his uncle, I was ultimately unable to see him off.
"The eldest prince grew up in such a complicated environment. Whether it is the emperor, the empress, or the emperor's other concubines and half-brothers and sisters, his body cannot withstand such a huge mental and physical loss." Even if he doesn't leave now, he will still be defeated in a few years.
The eldest prince had never been a very suitable royal heir.
It's just that his identity and background limit him. He has no say in whether he is willing or not, or whether he is suitable or not. He can only bite the bullet and charge forward.
Some words spoken out would be a slap in the face of the royal family. Shen Yao is the Princess of Jing, and Lin Xingzhi is the Prince of Jing. The two of them are traveling this time to serve the Emperor, so... let's talk about everything after returning to Beijing.
"Host, it's too late now." By the time they get back, the daylily will be cold.
The system felt that the eldest prince was also pitiful. His biological father had too many sons, but his biological mother only had him as a son. However, his biological mother was even less reliable than his biological father.
Tut tut
Maybe it's better to leave, at least I don't have to suffer this kind of pressure anymore.
You can't say that
How could someone from a royal family have such a mentality? The threat posed by those who throw themselves into a desperate struggle is greater than that posed by those who are self-aware.
If the eldest prince could be a little more indifferent, or think more about himself, he would not have reached the desperate situation today. At least the queen's maternal family is on his side, and can even become a knife in his hand.
"The Empress has ruined the eldest prince, and the Emperor has stood by and watched him do nothing. This most noble couple in the world bears the greatest responsibility for the eldest prince's current fate."
Giving birth but not raising, raising but not teaching, and still in this horrible place where one wrong step could be fatal.
"Host, does this matter have anything to do with our return?"
The system expressed deep apologies for the unfortunate death of the eldest prince, but it was limited to lip service. After all, this was not their main mission, so it didn't matter whether he was dead or alive.
'It doesn't matter much, but without the eldest prince as a target, the queen will go crazy.
Can you predict the behavior of a madman? 'What if they are implicated?'
Who made the relationship between the Queen and Shen Yao always mediocre, or the Queen didn't like Shen Yao very much? She always acted condescending when she summoned Shen Yao several times. Even when she was later suppressed by the Emperor and her own maternal family, the Queen still didn't change her eyes that always looked down on the world.
Tut tut
"Walk slowly on the road and try to avoid it. The royal family's affairs should not be interfered with by outsiders."
Compared with his biological children and concubines, no matter how capable Lin Xingzhi is, he is still an outsider.
Lin Xingzhi and Shen Yao had obviously thought of the same thing, and their speed of travel slowed down unexpectedly.
Not only that, Lin Xingzhi also privately advised not to make his actions public, the reason being that it would have a bad influence.
In fact, he just didn't want to be too high-profile, so as not to let the capital know and keep a note of it.
People in the royal family are narrow-minded. Lin Xingzhi has personally verified that this statement is true, so he must avoid trouble and protect himself and his family.
"As for the royal family, it's the same no matter which mission world we're in."
The system pretended to sigh a few words, and then started to chat with its host, mainly talking about what happened on the road, whether it was about fairies or humans, the system could easily find out.
Shen Yao:......
It can be seen that this system is indeed a bit gossipy and does not do any serious work every day.
It is often boring when traveling, but fortunately there is no shortage of fun around Shen Yao.
Once again, the nearby goblins came to complain. Shen Yao rubbed her head helplessly, wondering why she didn't notice that the five-colored stone also had the characteristics of a naughty child.
Five-colored Stone: ...
The Five-Colored Stone sat in front of Shen Yao angrily, but he didn't think he was wrong. It was obvious that the deer monster had gone to the wrong place. Besides, it didn't bother with it, so why did this monster take the initiative to attack?
Shen Yao:......
"You said you were right, so why did the deer demon's antlers appear in your hands?"
If she hadn't noticed it in time, the unfortunate deer demon would not only have had its antlers injured, but would have lost its cultivation at the very least, or would have reverted to its original form or even died at the worst.
Wu Se Shi wanted to argue a bit, but was stopped by Shen Yao's words.
Five-colored Stone: ...
Okay, you are strong and you are right, but it will never admit its mistake!
Lin Shengyan and Lin Shengjue ran over to beg their mother to plead for the Five-Colored Stone, saying that the deer monster had bullied them first, and it was Brother Stone who couldn't stand it so much that he taught it a lesson. Moreover, they did not intend to kill the deer monster, but just wanted to give it a small return.
"This deer demon is so evil," he even complained first, clearly bullying my mother and not knowing the whole process.
Shen Yao: ...She has a system, so she naturally knows the cause and effect of the matter.
Raising her hand and rubbing the indignant faces of Lin Shengyan and Lin Shengjue, Shen Yao explained that they shouldn't think like that. The premise for the deer demon to attack was that they took the deer demon's spiritual herbs without permission. Then the deer demon attacked, the five-colored stone fought back, and the deer demon ran over to complain to her.
"You two shouldn't be like this. Cultivation is not about doing whatever you want." Holding a sharp weapon in your heart will naturally give rise to murderous thoughts. Such thoughts are not beneficial to cultivation.
Lin Shengyan and Lin Shengjue: ...
Wu Se Shi was a little at a loss. He turned his head to look at the two children and then looked up at Shen Yao. He pursed his lips and opened them for a while before having to close them again.
Shen Yao did not blame Lin Shengyan and Lin Shengjue too harshly, because she was not the only one who could teach this matter, but also Lin Xingzhi, Master Yuankong, and the abbot of Huangjue Temple far away in the capital.
"There are some things you may not understand, but you just need to be clear that you are practicing for yourself, not for the world." You don't need to bear too much responsibility, but you can't be too indulgent and take it lightly.
"Master Yuankong is waiting for you. Go ahead," Shen Yao watched Lin Shengyan and Lin Shengjue leave. Then, in a very serious tone, she begged the Five-Colored Stone not to indulge the two children. Unlike spiritual creatures and magical treasures born and raised by nature, they were just flesh and blood. "As for the future, they have to walk their own paths and make their own choices."
Interfering too much would be irresponsible to Lin Shengyan and Lin Shengjue. Shen Yao had given birth to children in so many mission worlds, and she knew too well that every child was unique, and that teaching should be tailored to the individual.
The previous emotion disappeared from Wu Se Shi's face. He nodded and said, "I understand."
Shen Yao smiled when she heard this, raised her hand and pulled up the five-colored stone that was still sitting on the ground, and asked the small stone to collect the chopped antlers. "Your spoils of war, deal with them yourself."
Seeing this, the five-colored stone was handed directly to Shen Yao, indicating that it did not need a single stone. "You can keep it and give it to others." This is a precious medicinal material, which is a great tonic for people.
Things like this happened frequently while traveling, but fortunately they were all resolved cleverly by Shen Yao.
Occasionally, when they behave inappropriately, Shen Yao will join forces with Lin Xingzhi and Master Yuankong to teach the three children (including the Five-Colored Stone).
Lin Shengyan and Lin Shengjue grew rapidly. By the time they arrived outside the capital, the two children were able to easily deal with some troubles, including some troublesome little demons, which all became experience packages for the two children.
"This is the capital city, it looks really spectacular." The outer wall alone is taller and wider than other cities, and the rows of soldiers going in and out are really majestic and domineering.
Wu Se Shi leaned against the window with his chin supported, propping up his head and looking forward.
The convoy had stopped at this time, and Lin Xingzhi in the carriage was facing a rather difficult dilemma.
Go to the palace or return home?
"It's not good to go straight into the palace without washing and dressing up," Shen Yao put her hand on Lin Xingzhi's arm, indicating that they had been exhausted from the long journey, sleeping in the open air, and there was not a single clean spot on their bodies.
Going to the palace to meet the emperor at this time is also a torture for the emperor.
Lin Xingzhi smiled and handed the letter to Shen Yao, "It's the emperor's order."
emperor?
"That's the name, but who knows who actually wrote this letter?"
After leaving the capital, the communication between Lin Xingzhi and the emperor was one-way. Whenever Lin Xingzhi arrived at a place, he would write a secret letter and submit it to the court. If the emperor had any instructions, he would reply in the name of the court. If not, it meant that Lin Xingzhi was responsible for the matter and the court supported it.
Shen Yao looked through the letter in her hand and felt that it did not look like the emperor's handwriting at all. Instead, it was written by someone with ulterior motives who wanted to sow discord between the two sides.
"Queen?"
The queen has become very famous during this period. Her reputation can be heard in the court and the harem. Even the Jin family cannot let the queen be in peace, let alone the emperor who has a surviving son.
In order to see the excitement of the capital, the system would go to the palace even if it meant increasing the daily commute time, just for the gossip.
For example, the queen went crazy and wanted to attack her children, the other concubines joined forces to resist, the emperor stood by and did nothing, and the aristocratic families of the previous dynasty attacked each other...
bala bala bala
Shen Yao's information collection progress at this time was several times faster than Lin Xingzhi's, so she was very sure who wrote this letter.
"How dare the Queen send a letter? Her reign as Queen is over now."
Lin Xingzhi felt that the queen's previous madness was limited to the harem, but now she seemed to have the intention of rushing to the front court.
The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, this is courting death!
"How funny! If I hadn't sent her off or instigated her, how could I have remained firmly in the position of Queen?"
Don't joke, ever since her son is gone, the throne is destined to fall into someone else's pocket.
The queen has always been proud and refuses to bow her head or admit defeat. Over the past few months, she has used countless methods to deal with those annoying people in the harem.
Unfortunately, there has been little progress and the emperor is still on guard against her.
"Your Majesty, Eunuch Li came from the front hall and said that the Emperor wants to see you."
The maids serving the queen had been replaced a long time ago. The person in front of her looked strange and immature, obviously a newcomer who had just been assigned to Fengyi Palace.
The queen raised her eyes, and a hint of disgust inadvertently flashed in her eyes. Although she quickly adjusted her mood, the palace maid still caught the trace.
Palace Maid: ...
The slightly drooped head lowered even further, and as she watched the figure sitting on the couch slowly get up, the palace maid quickly stepped forward and supported the person.
"Let's go, don't be too late and make the emperor unhappy," the queen laughed sarcastically. She herself was fine, but the palace maid was frightened and trembled.
The emperor and empress had no idea how many times this kind of confrontation had happened in the past few months.
The emperor blamed the queen for the eldest prince's death, and the queen blamed the entire court and harem for the eldest prince's death. Neither of this noble couple seriously thought about the eldest prince's situation.
bang bang bang! ! !
The young eunuchs around were so frightened that they shrank their necks and shook their heads, and their eyes all stole glances towards the tightly closed door.
"What are you doing? Stand still, or you'll be sent back to the Imperial Household Department if you offend your masters."
There is never a good outcome for returning goods in the palace, let alone being assigned to the front hall, the cold palace or the separate courtyard, which is the final destination.
After saying this, Eunuch Li glanced around and straightened his body with his back to the gate.
Anyway, the masters' lives are not the responsibility of servants like them, so it is up to them to decide right and wrong and grudges.
The carriage outside finally chose to go into the city and return home.
Lin Xingzhi put the secret letter away, indicating that they would still go to the palace to pay their respects at their own pace. Besides, it was still unclear whether the nobles in the palace wanted to see them at this time.
creak-
The tightly closed door opened, and the queen came out with a proud look on her face. Seeing this, Eunuch Li hurried to meet her and half-bowed to see the queen off.
"Tell the Imperial Kitchen to prepare some heat-reducing soup and bring it here. The Emperor has come in very hot-tempered. Eunuch Li, please advise the Emperor to take good care of himself."
The queen chuckled again and looked at the door that had closed again behind her.
Eunuch Li: ...
What could he say? They were all his masters, and he was just a servant.
Continuing to smile as he sent the Queen away, Eunuch Li muttered to himself how long this Emperor and Empress couple would continue to quarrel. One could endure, while the other was provocative. Furthermore, there were all kinds of forces from the former and harems causing trouble. Tsk, it turned out that most people couldn't handle it.
"Steward, Your Majesty"
A young eunuch came up to Eunuch Li and whispered a few words to him, then stepped back and left.
Eunuch Li pushed open the door, bent even lower than before and came to the emperor's side, briefly and quickly repeating what happened outside.
The emperor casually gathered the memorials on the desk and suddenly mentioned Prince Jing and his wife who had returned to the capital.
"It's time to go home."
"I returned to the palace this morning."
"Tomorrow morning, go and invite King Jing to the palace."
"嗻"
