Qian and Zhou came to Cining Palace, and Empress Dowager Sun had just finished worshiping the Buddha.

She did not allow the imperial concubine to come to celebrate the New Year. Ever since King Jili went on a hunt in the north and King Yin came to power, the Queen Mother had been cautious. Originally, she had planned to wait for King Jili to return to Beijing before making any plans.

As a result, King Jili was beheaded in the Ancestral Temple, and she did not dare to offend such a evil star as the Ming Emperor.

On the contrary, when Empress Dowager Sun occasionally recited sutras, she became more respectful to Taizu Emperor Gao. It was precisely because of Emperor Gao's lenient thoughts that the Ming Dynasty had a bottom line in the internal fighting among clans.

In the third year of Zhizheng, a drought occurred in Fengyang, which triggered a locust plague and a plague. Within half a month, Zhu Yuanzhang's parents and eldest brother died one after another.

Zhu Yuanzhang's eldest brother Zhu Chongsi had a son named Zhu Wenzheng.

Zhu Wenzheng was appointed as the Grand Governor of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and Chen Youliang went south to attack Hongdu. Zhu Wenzheng took up a position in the isolated city to defend Hongdu, and withstood Chen Youliang's 600,000-strong army that was attacking by land and water.

Finally, Zhu Yuanzhang received support, and then the Battle of Poyang Lake took place. Ming Dynasty won a complete victory with the help of the east wind.

Zhu Wenzheng defended the city alone to contain Chen Youliang's main force. Originally, Zhu Yuanzhang admired his nephew quite a lot. Unexpectedly, Zhu Wenzheng felt that Zhu Yuanzhang's reward was not enough, so he secretly defected to Zhang Shicheng.

Zhu Yuanzhang was furious, but thinking of the drought, locust plague and plague in Fengyang, and the death of his eldest brother, he did not kill Zhu Wenzheng in the end, but put him under house arrest.

Only then did the concubine of Jian, the concubine of Wu, and the concubine of the Han Dynasty have examples to follow.

Now His Majesty was merciful enough and gave it to Prince Ji's Mansion. Zhu Jianshen was able to read and write without any problems.

What is this if not tolerant?

What Empress Dowager Sun feared the most was that Your Majesty would suddenly show his ferocious face, divide Prince Ji's palace into common people, and then kill everyone in Prince Ji's palace just like Emperor Xuanzong did to eliminate the common people of the Han Dynasty!

Even if His Majesty did do that today, Hu Hui, the Minister of Rites, would stand up and say: Sons are like fathers, and the matter will be over.

After all, your Majesty's father, Emperor Xuanzong, the husband of Empress Dowager Sun, had his second uncle Zhu Gaoxu and his family executed.

Who would offend His Majesty for the sake of Prince Ji's Palace, which has no power and no foundation?

At most, in the history books, those sour scholars chattered a few words about violence and then lamented about the fact that they were alone and the emperor was ruthless.

Your Majesty doesn't care.

When Queen Mother Sun saw her two daughters-in-law kneeling on the ground, her blood surged and she was so angry. Why did she offend that bastard emperor for nothing?!

Do you have to reveal the true face of the great emperor?

Zhou said angrily: "Mother, the princess ran into the Tai'an Palace, angered His Majesty, and almost caused the disaster of annihilation. How could she have the virtue of a saint and rely on the emperor's order to raise my son under her knees all day long?

What a treat..."

Empress Dowager Sun opened her eyes suddenly, interrupted Zhou's accusation, looked a bit fierce, and said sternly: "Noisy!"

Zhou Nuonuo didn't dare to speak anymore. She was still very afraid of the Queen Mother Sun's anger. Even though the Queen Mother Sun didn't pay attention to things now, it didn't mean that she couldn't control the affairs of Prince Ji's Mansion.

Empress Dowager Sun took a deep breath, her face became a little warmer, and she said in a rather gentle tone: "Princess Ji, it is a courtesy for you to take the prince to Tai'an Palace to celebrate the New Year. The Ai family will not say anything."

"Having the crown prince under your knees was the decision made when Prince Ji's palace was in turmoil, and it is also the intention of a legitimate mother."

"But why did we offend His Majesty in Tai'an Palace? Your Majesty is busy with state affairs and everything is complicated. Let's not cause any trouble to His Majesty."

Empress Dowager Sun did not dare to reprimand Princess Ji anymore.

Empress Dowager Sun had already heard about this, and the commotion in Tai'an Palace frightened the Empress Dowager so much that most of her soul flew away. It was not until she heard Qian coming out of Tai'an Palace that she breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Queen Wang has the appearance of a mother who cares about the world, her husband respects the court, her wife is honored in the family, she follows her husband in his walks, and she has the virtue of a saint. Otherwise, if the emperor is angry, who can persuade her, and who dares to persuade her?

As a queen, Queen Wang handled this matter quite thoughtfully.

But that is Empress Dowager Wu’s daughter-in-law!

Look at Prince Nio’s Mansion, and then look at the mess in your own house!

Queen Mother Sun became even more angry.

Although King Tao was a bastard, he regarded the emperor as majestic and majestic. Everyone called him the British Master, and his wife was knowledgeable and virtuous.

His son had been the emperor for fourteen years. He took his father and brothers as ministers, a capital of 500,000 men, and more than 60 ministers and servants to the Tumu Fort.

This Qian family was a little timid, but now the cowardice is gone, and he is very strong. But what about this Zhou family? She is bitter and mean.

This is because I am afraid that comparing myself to others will make people angry.

Mrs. Qian pursed her lips and said, "Queen Mother, my daughter-in-law asked Yi to become a nun. The ancient Buddha of Qingdeng is alone."

Mr. Qian has really made up his mind, it’s okay not to wait for Prince Ji’s Mansion!

Prince Ji's palace looked like that, walking on a cliff. As a result, the Zhou family was still scheming all day long. She had made up her mind and didn't want to stay any longer.

The Zhou family is surrounded by the Queen Mother Sun. Since the Zhou family wants to be Princess Ji, let her be her and try out what it's like to walk on thin ice.

Queen Mother Sun sighed, it was really unfortunate for the family that things turned out like this!

Empress Dowager Sun's expression changed again, and she said rather fiercely: "Mrs. Zhou, if you feel that the life of fine clothes and fine food in Prince Ji's Mansion is uncomfortable, then go to Baiyi Temple in the ancient temple tomorrow."

Zhou's eyes widened. It was clearly Qian who had offended His Majesty, so why did she become a monk? She looked at the Queen Mother in disbelief, and said solemnly: "Mother, daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law has always been obedient and has never been disobedient.

Why do you treat me so poorly when you respect your mother's orders?"

Mrs. Zhou was frightened. She thought that when she entered the palace today, Mr. Qian would be reprimanded and then rushed to the Baiyi Nunnery in the ancient temple. But it was a good thing that she was actually being reprimanded and even driven into the nunnery!

The development of the incident caused cold sweat to break out on Zhou's forehead. She lay prone on the ground, trembling non-stop.

Empress Dowager Sun did not say anything. It was Zhou's deference that was absolutely unacceptable.

If Prince Ji's Mansion wants to exist, it must draw a clear line with her, the Queen Mother. Otherwise, His Majesty will only be jealous instead of buying things for Zhu Jianshen.

Although I don’t know whether it was the hypocrisy of the concubine emperor or whether the concubine emperor really had a close friendship with Zhu Jianshen.

But no matter what, this close relationship is really fragile.

"Princess, do you think this is good? I think it will be easier for His Majesty to explain to you, and your temper will be smoother." Empress Dowager Sun's expression changed from angry to warm again, and she started discussing with Qian.

.

Queen Mother Sun is such a shrewd person, she knows how to keep Prince Ji's palace alive.

What did the Great Emperor say? The Zhou family is unscrupulous and immoral. This is the standard for judging this matter.

Qian bowed her head to the ground. She never expected that Queen Mother Sun would be like this. She whispered: "Thank you, Queen Mother, for making the decision."

Qian was not very reverent and had a quarrel with the Queen Mother Sun in the Cining Palace last time. But it was precisely this lack of reverence that allowed Prince Ji's Palace to reach its present state smoothly.

Empress Dowager Sun finally breathed a long sigh of relief, this matter finally came to an end.

Zhou stood up angrily and said loudly: "Queen Mother, my daughter-in-law is not satisfied with this treatment. It is clearly Princess Ji who has angered Your Majesty. Why do you want to punish me to calm His Majesty's anger? How can such a treatment be fair?"

The corner of Queen Mother Sun's mouth twitched, but she did not answer, but picked up the tea and drank a cup.

Is Mr. Zhou really submissive?

At first, she was acting like a mother, but later she was acting like a queen mother, and she even asked for justice.

Zhou was just using her as the queen mother to have some use in order to gain a higher position.

Who is responsible for the bad things happening in Prince Ji's Mansion? Is it the weak-tempered Qian family? If it weren't for the Zhou family's jumping up and down, how could Prince Ji's Mansion be in trouble?

The Empress Dowager Sun's matter must be handled properly, otherwise Your Majesty will not be able to explain it to you, and no one will have a good life.

With Zhou's appearance, staying in Prince Ji's Mansion would be a big disaster.

"Chen Daxuan, please ask Mrs. Zhou to go to Baiyi Temple in the ancient temple." Empress Dowager Sun said to Daxuan behind her, her tone was quite calm.

"Yes." Several palace officials took Zhou away who was still shouting.

Empress Dowager Sun said with a smile on her face: "Princess, please sit down and talk."

Qian bowed her head to the ground, but remained still. She took a deep breath and said, "Please allow me to have my hair cut off and become a nun."

Empress Dowager Sun immediately became a little unhappy. She was so stubborn. No wonder the bastard emperor was so angry that he wanted to kill someone.

She had already dealt with it in this way, and Qian still wanted to become a nun.

Empress Dowager Sun said unhappily: "The Rites says: A woman has no title, so she sits with her husband's teeth. What's the point of a woman without a title? She is humble and has no external affairs, so there are three meanings of obedience: before you are married, you will obey your father; when you are married, you will obey your father.

Obey your husband, and even if your husband dies, you will obey your son."

"Since your husband still has children, how can you behave like this?"

Empress Dowager Sun's words already had the meaning of reprimand. She quoted Ban Gu's "White Tiger Justice" to discuss the status of women in national honors.

Without the three obediences, even if the husband dies, the children are not educated. This is not what a woman should do.

Qian's face looked sad, but she finally stood up and sat on the chair, still saying nothing.

Empress Dowager Sun took another sip of tea and said, "Well, the Ai family knows what's wrong with you, isn't it that you have no children? Since Mrs. Zhou has gone to Baiyi Nunnery, you can treat this son as your own."

The Empress Dowager Sun sent the Zhou family to Baiyi Nunnery for this purpose. If the Zhou family is here, they are blood relatives. After the Zhou family enters the nunnery, it is only natural that the Qian family will raise the son.

This Qian family is like this because he has no children.

Qian was quite helpless. When things got to this point, if she continued to be stubborn, it would seem like she was causing trouble over nothing.

She originally thought that Queen Mother Sun would send her directly to Baiyi'an, but things turned out to be in another direction.

Empress Dowager Sun asked about the prince again, and was pleased to know that Zhu Jianshen was quite intelligent. She smiled and said, "Princess, if you teach your children, the Ai family can rest assured. This young man from Prince Ji's house is very masculine. If he is taken care of by Zhou again,

If you do, that would be even more despicable."

King Ji Li is dead. Prince Ji's palace is already very feminine. If he is led by the bitter Zhou family again, it will become a mean one. The Empress Dowager Sun's treatment is naturally for the good of her grandchildren.
