"You, you, you send me back, and I will, I will say that you bullied me. I will...I will tell father, tell mother, that you took me out secretly!" Reporting is the privilege of children, and it is exclusive to those spoiled naughty children!
Although it is a bit embarrassing, Cheng Jiujiu can only do this. No matter what trick it is, it is fine as long as it works.
Your Highness Wu Nian, "?"
How can this little thing threaten others so righteously? Look at this little face, with a face full of pride and a clever look of I knew you couldn't do anything to me.
It's quite cute.
He wanted to deliberately bully Cheng Jiujiu, but suddenly remembered the heroic deeds of this little ancestor. Now the eldest brother is still outside the imperial city, and was thrown away by his father to train with those soldiers.
If he was in a bad mood and complained to me, it would be a bad ending.
How could a three-year-old kid be so scheming?
The scheming is still to come, "Take me to the dining room to eat delicious snacks. If we are found, I will say that I ran out because of greed and got lost, and then met you and was sent back by you."
"My mother doesn't allow me to eat too much." While speaking, Cheng Jiujiu lowered his head shyly. Mother, she didn't mean to discredit you, she knows that you are the best to her.
"Open your mouth." Upon hearing this, His Highness Wu Nian pinched Cheng Jiujiu's little chin.
"Ah?" Cheng Jiujiu was forced to open his little mouth.
"The Empress must be worried about your teeth. Children will have toothaches if they eat too many snacks. However, your teeth are fine. Since you want to eat so much, then I will take you to eat, but you have to report to the Empress first." This brother seemed to be very good at dealing with children, and he convinced Cheng Jiujiu in a few words.
He even knew that if he really sent Cheng Jiujiu to the Empress's bedroom, he would not be able to be taken out, so he just found a passing eunuch to report to the Empress, "Just say that I took His Highness the Ninth Prince for a walk and will send him back later."
Cheng Jiujiu, "..." She felt that in front of this brother, she was really like a willful little kid, but she had to say that she didn't hate him.
However, he is too familiar with taking care of children, "Teeth?"
"Yes, my brother has more children, so I know a lot. The Queen Mother treats you very well, remember not to make the Queen Mother anxious and sad, understand?"
"I know." Cheng Jiu nodded obediently, but through this sentence, he also knew which prince was holding him skillfully. The style is completely different from that of the eldest prince Jinyun, the fourth prince Wu Nian.
The mother of the fourth prince was originally a maid in the conservatory when Emperor Mingsheng was still a prince, and later she got the title of concubine because Emperor Mingsheng became emperor. Of course, the reason why she got the title of concubine with her lowly status was not only because she gave birth to the Fourth Prince, but also because, when she was serving Emperor Mingsheng, she tried all kinds of food for him and helped him avoid many assassinations, but she also lost six children in a row, each of which died in the womb.
Because of guilt, Emperor Mingsheng made her a concubine. Concubine Lian, which means love and pity.
Concubine Lian found many imperial doctors, and finally begged Emperor Mingsheng, saying that she wanted a child in this life and asked him to fulfill it. Then, the Fourth Prince Wu Nian was born.
The name Wu Nian came from Concubine Lian kneeling under the phoenix tree and praying to God. Because she never forgot, she finally gave birth to Wu Nian at the age of 40. The name of the Fourth Prince is full of Concubine Lian's love. At the same time, it also indirectly proved that Emperor Mingsheng did not have high expectations for her, and did not even give her a name.
In life, she finally had her own children. Concubine Lian loved her son as her life, and she also knew that her status was low, so she deliberately looked for opportunities to anger His Majesty and let His Majesty remove her concubine position. She even let the Fourth Prince marry the daughter of a wealthy businessman in order to keep the Fourth Prince away from the disputes over imperial power.
Because the children in the backyard were all women of low status, and Concubine Lian hated the infighting, anyone who dared to kill her children would be killed by her with thunder.
Because of Concubine Lian, the Fourth Prince's Fourth Imperial Concubine is now called a dead imperial concubine among the people. No one dares to be the Fourth Prince's imperial concubine, and even gradually no woman dares to fight in the infighting. Therefore, the 27-year-old Fourth Prince Wu Nian is the prince with the most offspring in the current prosperous dynasty, but also the most useless prince.
Because although he has many offspring, none of his concubines and concubines have any relationship with the court, and after Concubine Lian gave birth to the Fourth Prince, she only had a short life span of 20 years. After
Concubine Lian died, Emperor Mingsheng granted her last request and let the Fourth Prince move out.
The 20-year-old Fourth Prince had his own house outside, but he did not have a title. Moreover, except for the New Year's Eve, he had no chance to return to the palace. Even if he came back, his concubine was not qualified to be brought in because of her low status. He
had no official position in the court and no mother in the harem. He only relied on the simple salary of the prince and lived a very shabby life. Not to mention that the princes looked down on him, even many court ministers would not be so respectful when they met him outside.
In the eyes of many people, the Fourth Prince Wu Nian was a good-for-nothing, with many offspring who were of no use, and of humble origin and not favored, so he had no way out in this life.
At this time, being held in the arms of the Fourth Prince, Cheng Jiujiu felt that the rumors were wrong. He is a very warm person. Such a person is raised surrounded by love and loves this world.
Instead of saying that he has no future, it is better to say that he loves his family more. That's not right, it should be said that he was influenced by Concubine Lian and loves children more.
So when it comes to Cheng Jiujiu, he saw through her little tricks at a glance, but he tolerated Cheng Jiujiu's little willfulness.
Such a person may be useless in his career, and he has no feelings for his concubines, but it must be said that he is a good father. Now, he should be called a good brother.
In a world where men are superior to women, it is really difficult to make a man respect his wife equally. The happiest thing for a woman is probably to raise a son who respects and loves her. Only when she is respected by her son can she have status.
The sadness of the times!
Sighing, Cheng Jiujiu suddenly felt fortunate that she had a script about a woman dressed as a man. Because Cheng Jiujiu, who had secretly put a wine gourd in the name of stealing food in the kitchen, heard another piece of news.
That is, the envoys from neighboring countries are looking for the princesses of the Sheng Dynasty to marry! There are so many envoys from neighboring countries this time, and there are not enough princesses of their Sheng Dynasty.
In order to stabilize the surrounding environment, the newly ascended Emperor Mingsheng only cared about the internal strife and gave the daughters of his enemies the title of princess and married them off.
It seemed that the dowry was generous and the country was welcoming them, but it was not a good thing. They were just envoys who brought the dowry and begged for peace.
Now more than 30 years have passed, and the surrounding dynasties have changed their rulers. The princesses who were lucky in the past died a few years after marriage, and those who were unlucky were forced to be buried alive. Even worse, some of them became the sons of their fathers and wives due to certain bad habits, and then committed suicide because they could not bear the blow. In short, no princess had a good ending.
However, as long as Sheng Dynasty is willing to give a princess to marry,
it means that Sheng Dynasty does not want to fight, and it is considered a peaceful establishment of diplomatic relations between the two countries. Women are equivalent to goods. Princesses are more valuable goods. Sleeping with a woman of your Sheng Dynasty is also a face-saving thing. After all, Sheng Dynasty is now known as the largest country.
Especially, they know that
there are only two princesses waiting to be married in Sheng Dynasty, and one of them is just twelve years old.
So so many neighboring small countries want to see how the Sheng Dynasty will decide now, and are they ready to go to war with other countries?
"Why is Xiaojiu sighing?" His Highness Wu Nian looked at Cheng Jiujiu's gloomy face and found it very interesting. His ninth brother was really born very well.
He is cute when he is quirky, and lovable when he is gloomy. No matter what he looks like, it is a pleasure to look at him. But now this little thing seems to be gritting his teeth, as if he is angry?
"I am so angry." Cheng Jiujiu wanted to say that a truly powerful country would not fall to the point of relying on the marriage of princesses to maintain temporary peace. However, it is precisely because the current Emperor Mingsheng has too much control over power that a gap in military power has been created. Such a huge dynasty does not even have a general who can lead troops to fight. They are either old soldiers in their eighties or civil servants who have inexplicably obtained military power but are being squeezed out.
A powerful country is being forced to send a princess to marry a princess by several small countries around it.
Rubbish!
Cheng Jiujiu knows that he is powerless to change this dynasty where men are superior to women, but in this situation, he really looks down on the current emperor.
Men's cowardice has to be paid by women. Such a person is really not worthy of being a father.
Maybe she is narrow-minded and does not have the sentiment of sacrificing herself for the sake of justice.
After a full burp, Cheng Jiujiu didn't want to listen to those people bragging about the other small countries around her. She felt a stomachache when she listened to them. Cheng Jiujiu, who grew up under the red flag, has a deep love for her motherland.
She knows that my motherland can sacrifice its life to protect our people, so that no enemy dares to trample on its land and dignity. Only if you are strong enough, no one dares to hurt you.
And this country.
Haha!
No future.
Forget it, forget it, don't think about it. Cheng Jiujiu doesn't think about those messy things. Even if it's a joke, what can she do at the age of three? First learn medicine, and then learn martial arts when she grows up.
No one can destroy this country where she lives and prepares to live a life of idleness and waiting to die! Even if her father has made this country full of holes, she has to protect her mother and herself.
The princess of a fallen country has a hard time, the queen and prince of a fallen country have an even harder time, and the common people of a fallen country have an even harder time, so she can't even sneak into the civilian world and escape.
Then, she can only become stronger!
After saying goodbye to her fourth brother Wu Nian angrily, Cheng Jiujiu returned to the queen's bedroom, acted coquettishly to her mother and got away with it. The queen also knew that the fourth prince was the most gentle prince, so she didn't pursue it.
Cheng Jiujiu, who was in a bad mood, took the medical book of Doctor Ouyang with little interest. It is true that studying medicine cannot save everyone.
"..." Doctor Ouyang, whose baby was abandoned by the Ninth Prince, suddenly felt unhappy. He was ready to teach you medicine, but you are not interested?
No, learn from me!
So, Teacher Ouyang's small classroom started, and Cheng Jiujiu was forced to learn medicine. Look at your little arms and legs, okay, learn to protect yourself first.
The time for learning always passes quickly. In the evening, Cheng Jiujiu was taken away by his mother to attend the dinner. Because he was still young, he could sit with his mother instead of the prince's seat.
However, since he was in the position of the queen, he could see the whole situation.
Cheng Jiujiu was not interested in listening to those people's self-righteous and presumptuous declarations. After talking to his mother, he ran to the prince's seat. After all, the envoy was there, so Queen Xiande could only let the palace maids and eunuchs chase after him. This was a little ancestor, so Cheng Jiujiu could do whatever he wanted, and the distance was not far, so the eunuchs quietly arranged a seat for Cheng Jiujiu.
As soon as Cheng Jiujiu sat down, he was stared at by a pair of green eyes. Wait... green?
