Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

Li Qiong finished the homework assigned by the master today, and asked someone to come in to wash her hands, but found that the person who came in was very strange.

He frowned and asked, "Who are you?"

The little eunuch knelt on the ground and responded respectfully.

"The servant girl came to serve His Royal Highness under the order of the imperial concubine."

Hearing this, Li Qiong only thought it was her mother and concubine who cared about her, and didn't think too much about it.

Until he walked out of the study, only to find that all the palace people outside had been replaced, none of whom he knew.

Only then did he realize that things were not as simple as he thought.

Li Qiong didn't even have time to eat lunch, so she hurried to see her mother and concubine.

"Mother, why did you change all the people who serve your son?"

Because he was too eager, he spoke in a heavy tone, showing a bit aggressive.

Concubine Zhen poured the freshly prepared spices into the exquisite jade bottle, and the slender jade fingers and the flawless jade bottle complemented each other, so beautiful that people couldn't take their eyes off them.

For her son's questioning, she didn't stop moving, and replied lightly.

"Everyone is dead, so naturally a new batch has to be replaced."

Li Qiong was shocked and asked in disbelief.

"Are they... all dead? Why?"

Concubine Zhen put the jade bottle into a mahogany box covered with silk.

Xi Xiang came forward holding the basin and knelt on the ground.

Concubine Zhen asked slowly while cleaning her hands in a slow manner.

"They talk nonsense in front of the prince, trying to confuse the prince, shouldn't they die?"

Li Qiong felt as if all the blood in her body had been frozen, and her hands and feet were cold.

"Just because they said a few bad things about Li Xun, the mother concubine wants to kill them all?

Did the mother and concubine ever think about doing this, how does the son feel?

Or is it that the concubine mother only cares about Li Xun in her heart, and doesn't care what her son thinks at all? "

Xixiang couldn't help but looked up at the prince, reminding him in a low voice.

"His Royal Highness, please be careful."

However, Li Qiong's chest was already filled with two emotions of grievance and resentment at this time, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

He simply can't listen to the persuasion of others.

He fixed his eyes on Concubine Mu, waiting for Concubine Mu's answer.

Concubine Zhen wiped her hands and said to Xixiang.

"You all go out."

"Here."

All the people waiting in the room retreated, and Concubine Zhen spoke slowly.

"You said I don't care about your feelings?"

She hooked her red lips lightly, laughing at herself.

"If I really don't care about you, why did I risk my life to give birth to you?

In order to protect your life, Ben Gong also caused the death of his only younger sister. "

Li Qiong was stunned.

He knew that his concubine mother had a younger sister, and he also knew that that younger sister was Li Xun's mother.

But he didn't know that there was such a secret in it.

If the facts are as the mother concubine said, then it seems that it is not incomprehensible that the concubine mother is partial to Li Xun.

Li Qiong's momentum suddenly weakened.

He said dully, "You never told your son about this."

Concubine Zhen walked up to him slowly, squatted down, her luxurious skirts were stacked on the ground, her slender white jade fingers gently touched the skirt of her son's clothes, and helped him tidy up the loose skirt carefully, with a soft and gentle voice.

"Qiong'er, if you think I'm partial to Li Xun, it's because I owe his mother a life.

I can't afford that life, so I can only do my best to treat Li Xun well.

Only in this way can Ben Gong feel a little more at ease. "

Ever since Li Qiong became sensible, his mother and concubine always called him the prince.

He hadn't heard his concubine call his name for a long time.

Hearing that "Qiong'er" at this moment, Li Qiong felt sour in her heart, and even her eyes were a little red.

Concubine Zhen patted his head and coaxed him softly.

"Bengong only thinks about paying off the debt, and made Qiong'er feel wronged. It's because I didn't think carefully. Don't be angry with me, okay?"

Seeing that the concubine mother bowed her head and apologized, what else could Li Qiong complain about?

"Mother Concubine, don't say that, you have done a good job, it's because the son is too impulsive, and even lost his temper at Mother Concubine because of a few slaves."

At the end, he bowed his head in shame.

Concubine Zhen smiled gratifiedly.

"It's okay, if anything happens in the future, you must tell the concubine mother, and don't listen to other people's arrangements."

Having said that, her tone became serious.

"You grew up in the palace, you should know how many people with ulterior motives are hidden in the palace.

They're all watching you in the dark, trying to trick you into making mistakes.

You can't let your guard down, let alone trust what others say. "

Li Qiong nodded solemnly.

"My son knows.

In this palace, besides himself, the only person the son can trust is his mother and concubine.

Only the concubine in this world will not harm her son. "

Concubine Zhen's smile became softer.

"Good boy."

...

Early the next morning, Li Ji dug his son out of the warm blanket.

He shook his son's skirt twice.

"Wake up, it's time to get up."

Li Xun's messy hair swayed left and right, and his bewildered mind became clearer.

He opened his eyes, looked at the dark sky outside the window, and muttered indistinctly.

"It's still dark..."

Li Ji: "You still have to change clothes, wash up, have breakfast, and take a carriage to go to Taixue, all of which will take time, and today is your first day of school, you have to go to Taixue a little earlier to say hello to the masters .”

After speaking, he didn't care what his son's reaction was, and just threw him on the ground.

Immediately, servants swarmed up to change the clothes of Xiao Shizi.

When the busy work was over, Li Ji took his son out of the house, and the sun just came out, and the sky brightened up.

The doctors in Taixue have known for a long time that the bully of the regent's family will come to class today.

They all remembered the heroic deeds of the little bully who singled out his older classmates and beat them to tears. They were all uneasy, for fear that the little bully would make trouble again.

Li Xun put his hands in his pockets, stood sideways with his body crooked, kicking one foot on the ground, looking bored.

Beside him, his father was listening to the doctors of Taixue.

Those doctors are almost all around forty years old, all of them have beards, and some of them are gray-haired.

They told about the achievements of Taixue during this period of running the school, and by the way, they also mentioned the names of a few students with excellent academic performance, hoping that the regent can remember their names and promote one or two in the future.

Li Ji patiently listened to their ramblings.

When the time was almost up, he said, "I still have things to do, dog..."

He swallowed the word "egg" abruptly, and changed his words.

"The king's son will be handed over to you for the time being. I hope you will teach him well, and don't let down the king's expectations of you."

All the doctors responded in unison: "Here."

They eagerly sent the regent out of the house.

When they walked away, they set their eyes on Li Xun.

Seeing the child's unsteady look, the doctors couldn't help but feel a headache.

Send away a big one, here is a small one!
