Chapter 440 The Past
"Princess Ronghua, if you are interested in this world, I can't compete with you." Emperor Hui of Jin teased.
But Princess Ronghua Zhu Huaizhen only wants a life of wealth and glory.
Princess Rongyang Zhu Huaishu saw this and became ambitious.
Thinking of this, Zhu Huaizhen was about to take over the conversation, but he just mentioned "The Peony Pavilion".
It turns out that all the vibrant flowers are now abandoned to the broken wells and dilapidated walls. What can be done about the beautiful scenery? Who can enjoy the joyful moments? Morning flies and evening rolls away, clouds and mists adorning the emerald pavilion; raindrops and wind, misty waves and painted boats - the people of the brocade screen look down upon this beautiful time.
This is Zhu Huaishu's favorite opera because Empress Roujia of the Great Zhou Dynasty liked it.
"Princess Ronghua, don't worry, I have no intention of competing with Shu'er. If she wants it, I will assist her. Northern Jin is different from Northern Zhou. The Queen of Northern Jin has the imperial seal, real power, and an army." Emperor Hui of Jin shook his head and laughed.
"Then has my brother-in-law ever thought about exchanging the position of imperial concubine for Jinling, Jiangcheng, Fancheng, Yicheng, Xiangcheng, and Yangcheng?" Zhu Huaizhen held his rosy cheeks, smiling like a flower, his eyes moving.
The Imperial Noble Consort of Northern Jin had the same status as the Vice Empress. She had no imperial seal but had an army.
Zhu Huaizhen was seeking legitimacy for the Red Dan Army on behalf of Zhu Huaishu.
However, Emperor Hui of Jin fell into deep thought and did not answer Zhu Huaizhen.
Zhu Huaizhen was not in a hurry and ordered another play "Wall Horse".
We looked at each other from afar on the wall and on horseback, and my heart was broken as soon as I saw you.
Since Emperor Hui of Jin liked "Wall Horseback Ride", Zhu Huaizhen might as well brainwash him.
Afraid of dew startling the sleeping birds, the wind ruffles the courtyard locust trees. Behold the Milky Way slanting across the steps, unmoved by the wispy dust. Moon, you are as thin as a bow, half a toad, yet bright as a mirror, reflecting the universe, yet cold as ice, soaking the twelve celestial peaks. Forbidden from the auspicious mist, I offer my deepest worship to the full moon. It's convenient for you, and it's not a hindrance to me. Deeply worship you, Chang'e, for not being jealous of your beauty, how dare you remain shrouded in mist and cloud for even a moment.
"Princess Ronghua, let me try." Emperor Hui of Jin whispered.
After hearing this, Zhu Huaizhen felt that his goal had been achieved and there was no need to pay any attention to Emperor Hui of Jin.
She has never had a good impression of Emperor Hui of Jin. It was the same in the past, is the same now, and will be the same in the future.
So she ordered a performance of "Peach Blossom Fan" and listened carefully.
Orioles chirp at dawn in the jade trees of Jinling, flowers bloom early in the Qinhuai waterside pavilions. Who knew the ice would melt so easily? I watched him build his red mansion, I watched him entertain guests, and I watched his mansion collapse. Here, amidst the mossy, blue tiles, I once slept in a dreamlike state; I've witnessed fifty years of rise and fall. No one in Wuyi Lane is surnamed Wang, ghosts cry at Mochou Lake, and owls roost on Phoenix Terrace. Dreams of the ruined mountains are the most real, the old land hard to lose. I don't believe this map is changing manuscripts. I'll compose a lament for Jiangnan, and sing it until I grow old.
"Princess Ronghua, do you want to know about Ali's past?" Emperor Hui of Jin said softly.
After he finished speaking, Zhu Huaizhen's eyelashes trembled slightly, obviously thinking about it very much.
"Princess Ronghua, I believe Ali has already told you that his mother is from the Chimei tribe, and he also has the blood of the Chimei tribe. The Chimei tribe is cursed and can only love one person in their lifetime. Unfortunately, his mother is beautiful and stupid. His mother fell in the snow and ice of Northern Zhou and was rescued by the late Northern Zhou emperor. His mother originally looked ordinary and was not favored by the late Northern Zhou emperor. Therefore, his mother tried every means to get close to the late Northern Zhou emperor. In the end, she did succeed and obtained a stunning face. His mother was too proud of herself and was collectively ostracized by the Northern Zhou harem and quietly sent out of the palace. But she told the previous emperor of Northern Zhou that his mother already had a lover. The previous emperor of Northern Zhou was furious and sent people to hunt down his mother. His mother fled to Northern Jin, met my father, and told him her tragic experience. My father believed her and took her back to the harem, where he loved her again. Unfortunately, my father took her away during one of his expeditions, and she disappeared again. It was a trap set by the Dou family of Qinghe. My father, perhaps because he loved her a little, was furious when he learned about this. He directly spread the news that Empress Dou was infertile and made my mother the Imperial Noble Consort. "Emperor Hui of Jin told the story.
