Chunjia and Yuan Neimiang's first meeting was not very amicable, and Empress Dowager Yuan thought that children are forgetful, and besides, Chunjia is not a petty person, so she coaxed him to be fine.

In fact it did originally.

If only Chunjia hadn't heard Mrs. Zhuang's contemptuous tone of voice when she said that Yuan Linniang was a girl who wasn't even qualified to be a steward of the royal household.

After hearing this kind of evaluation of Yuan Neemiang from her grandmother, and seeing for herself that Yuan Neemiang was indeed someone who, aside from her birth, was inferior to many of the maids of the royal household, it was hard for Chunjia not to believe in the words of Dowager Consort Zhuang.

And he has lived even more carefully, at least he is the only male heir of the royal family, the feudal king who undertook the throne at an early age ... This makes him how to accept Yuan Neemiang.

After growing up, Chunjia is not without suspicion, the Zhuang daffy because of the relationship with her daughterinlaw is too bad, dying or unwilling, specifically looking for him to go over to say those words, so that he and the fiancée chosen by Empress Yuan to get along well, thinking that retaliation.

But the fact of the matter was that, regardless of this grandmother's intentions, what she said about Yuan Neemiang, Chun Jia thought, was the truth.

Although he believed in Mrs. Zhuang at that time, in the end, he still had hopes for Empress Yuan.

So in private, he politely expressed his dislike for Yuan Neemiang and did not want her to stay in the royal residence.

Empress Yuan was very spent effort to coax him, and then told a lot of allusions to the sky will come down, in short, let him endure, persuade him just as sharpening the heart.

He was very docile and obeyed, as Queen Yuan said, he was too young at that time, nominally he was the new master of the royal residence, in fact, he had to count on Queen Yuan for everything ... He could only obey.

Later, Chunjia thought that if he had been petulant, or even if he had been shrewd, and had been a little more assertive, perhaps Empress Yuan would have considered his idea and agreed to change to a candidate who would be acceptable to him.

But he didn't.

Because he was not Empress Yuan's biological son, his title of son of the world as well as the title at that time, are Empress Yuan and Fuyang Yuan managed to operate to come, he did not have the courage to make a temper, he did not dare.

After that, he never once said that he didn't like Yuan Neemiang being in the royal residence.

Even when Empress Yuan couldn t eat her niece s brattyness and complained to him, he also softly persuaded her, saying that Yuan Neemiang was young and unintelligent, and did not have a bad heart, and that it would be better when she grew up ... He often thought of Kun Ze when he said these words.

His only real sister, according to the rules of these times, Kunze is only the rightful daughter of Empress Yuan.

However, the Queen Mother didn't even raise her personally, saying that she was sympathetic to the Qu's mother and child separation to the Qu's raising, in fact, plainly did not care about it at all.

Chun Jia watched with cold eyes, Yuan Zhen Niang's treatment in the Wang Fu was not much better than Kun Ze, the Wang Fu's proper daughter.

Empress Yuan knew all this, but let it go as a matter of course.

So it's hard for him not to feel in crisis.

He spent more effort in the coursework, the requirements of the teacher certainly uncompromising to do, the teacher did not require, he will also do his best to do the teacher was pleased with the Queen Yuan praised him, Queen Yuan heartbroken, advised him not to work so hard, at least it is a vassal king, but not to be the same as the ordinary family to take the examination of the top student.

Just mean it.

Why don't you spend more time with Mrs. Yuan when you have time?

Perhaps Empress Yuan was casually citing an example without the intention of not wanting him to be too capable, but Chun Jia broke out in a cold sweat as he hurriedly said, "I want to make my mother proud."

Looking at Empress Yuan s delighted smile at the words, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and thought, if one day, he can t be a vassal king, and even this royal residence as well as the royal residence s belongings can t be retained ... by heart and study, at least there is a skill that can make a living.

He was in his early teens.

Outsiders look at is extremely lucky little nobleman, as a concubine son but to make an exception to inherit the title, passed on the birth mother's beauty but did not pass on to the birth father's weak, the first mother of the gentle and virtuous as if he was his own, the fiancée, although not absolutely beautiful, but lively and cheerful and since childhood together ... is how many people dream of, ten lifetimes dare not think of a good thing.

But Junjia felt as if he had answered his grandmother's words that he actually had nothing.

Only day by day the flowing handwriting, day by day the familiar scriptures, history and literature, day by day the skillful bow and horse riding could give him a moment of peace of mind.

Ergo, he was forced by urgency to continue the hard work.

While Empress Yuan was occupied by her difficult niece, she listened to the West Seat's praises and didn't feel that her son needed too much of her own attention even occasionally, when she saw that Chun Jia was calm and not too tired, she would even complain to him about Yuan's illbehavior and lack of understanding.

She didn't realize that those complaints were phrased in a way that was displeasing to Junka, but the tone was one of intimacy and indulgence.

This is both cruel and cold to a child who doubts his place in his first mother's heart.

If it is Yun Feng Huang, she will cry, she will make a fuss, and she will play tricks to fight for favor ... If it is really not possible, she will get Yuan Neemiang dead.

But Chun Jia is very patient, time and again to persuade Empress Yuan to forgive Yuan Neemiang, time and again to let Empress Yuan do not bother with this cousin, so Empress Yuan thought that he and Yuan Neemiang have already got along with each other emotionally.

Junjia's idea was that the first mother was not really angry, and if he went along with what she said, it might cause some kind of storm, so that the motherson bond, which was already divided, would become even more fractured.

He just wasn't satisfied with the closed door, and under various banners, he let the royal family's seer lead him out to increase his knowledge.

In those years he personally set foot throughout the Fuyang County, seen all kinds of people and things, in the stumbling in the growth, transformation, but also accumulated the initial reputation and heart, and even privately and quietly went to the condolences of a trip to Zhuang Daifei.

Because he was afraid that Empress Yuan would find out, he didn't dare to stay longer, only burned some paper money for this grandmother and told her in a low voice, "Grandson is grateful to you now."

After coming into contact with the Lichuan city, Chun Jia understood more and more that the intention of the Zhuang Tai Fei and not to mention, her advice is really worth listening to.

The king's title can be stroked to seize, thousands of gold will be scattered, today swore to go through fire for him tomorrow may be strangers ... only his little by little accumulated talent and skill, experience and eyesight, heart and soul, always is his.

This was the root of his peace of mind even when he was relegated to the status of a commoner, and it was also the bottom line that he was not subjected to restrictions when he was a vassal king or a son of heaven.

There was a time when I was not without grievances and heartaches, fantasizing that if I were the first mother's own child, I wouldn't need to work so hard, I wouldn't need to put up with girls I didn't like, I wouldn't need to be sad that the first mother was spending more time and energy on my niece, but didn't dare to show it in the slightest.

However, when the county's discussion about the young but wise feudal king, which is the fortunate thing of the fiefdom, the eyes of the royal family look at him with increasing awe, and the attitude of the fiefdom's officials when they come to report is also more and more respectful, those sufferings and hardships will also be quickly forgotten.

It was then that Chunjia felt that the royal palace, which she thought was the whole world when she was young, was actually very, very small.

Outside the royal residence, only the splendor of the fiefdom is enough for him to stop caring about how much Queen Yuan is sincere and how much fake intention she has for him, not caring about Yuan Neemiang s barbarity, and not caring about Zhuang Tai Fei s intention ... Not to mention that outside the fiefdom, there is the world.

In comparison, the royal residence after the departure of Dowager Princess Zhuang was simply monotonous and boring.

Empress Yuan thoroughly cleaned up the entire royal residence, dispatched all the old people left behind by the Dowager Consort, and she has been the master of the royal residence ever since.

She arranged for the steward to take care of the daily routine, freeing herself to concentrate on coaxing her willful niece.

As for the concubine daughter, handed over to Qu, raised in the side yard not to stay at home, these two are very sensible, never come out to get in the way.

Behave without presence.

So every time Chunjia went to pay respects to Empress Yuan, mother and son greeted each other with a warm welcome, and the only topic that could be talked about, other than some uninteresting parental stories, was Yuan Neemiang.

It wasn't that Chun Jia didn't try to tell the Empress Dowager about what he had seen and heard outside, but the Empress Dowager's focus was always on feeling sorry for him and advising him not to work so hard next time.

It seemed to the Empress Dowager that she was genuinely heartbroken about this hardworking son.

But in Chunjia, he was worried that if he said too much the next time the empress dowager really wouldn't let him go out, so he decisively shut up, and next time, he wouldn't mention the words, and only honestly accompanied the empress dowager in discussing Yuan Neemiang.

The Queen Mother thought that her nieces were all hypocritical, and after coaxing her nieces with love and affection, she would turn to Chunjia and pour out her heart and soul If she can't give birth to a son, she will be replaced, and she is the proof that my son is showing tolerance and generosity to his old love, and she will be dispatched when she is almost ready, so that she will not have wasted the time that we have spent on her... ...

Chun Jia answered on her face, but in her heart, she was skeptical, what would she say in front of Yuan Neemiang, when aunt and nephew were in private?

Is it a false coaxing her, or is it also so heartfelt that Yuan Neemiang does not have to put herself too much on the heart, because, "Everything has aunt in it, the emperor's son even if he is not happy, the mourning family to help you coax him just ... a commoner's son, can inherit the king's title, it is not the mourning family and our Yuan Clan to contribute money and effort, otherwise how would he have such a great creation? Otherwise, where did he get such a great fortune! If it wasn't for the fact that the succession left a bit of an impression on the court, and later on, when Emperor Xiaozong was left without an heir, who would have thought of him? It is all because of our family that he is where he is today, and he deserves to be able to give you a better life."

Otherwise, Yuan Liniang is not surrounded by people with clear eyes, that is, after he could not stand this fiancée's savagery, he also turned around and hinted a number of times, how come she has not grown up?

In the middle of this, he had wanted to have a good, open talk with Empress Yuan several times, only that every time he thought so, he remembered the words of Consort Zhuang before she died.

She said that a tree is born from the end of a millimeter; a ninestory platform is built on a pile of earth.

These are the words of Lao Tzu, a metaphor for the importance of subtle accumulation and seriousness and downtoearthness but Chunjia understands his grandmother to be imploring him to be good and patient, and not to show his hand for a day until he is free of his shackles.

Because he can't necessarily afford the consequences of a showdown.

At that time, Chunjia weighed the pros and cons, if Empress Yuan really loves Yuan Neemiang more than him, if Fuyang Yuan Clan for his rejection of Yuan Neemiang and turn against him ... even if he does not lose the title of the king, after this action will certainly be subject to a variety of constraints.

And that will certainly affect his future.

In contrast, it was more prudent to put up with Yuan Neemiang.

He had already been careful with his words for so many years, he didn't want to bury his previous efforts and hard work for the sake of impulse.
