    According to rumors, the current empress Feng had a relationship experience before entering the palace.

    She has a childhood sweetheart. This person is her distant cousin who went to Beijing to rush for the exam. Because the family is not rich, Prime Minister Feng, who was still a Hanlin at the time, liked his intelligence, so he let him stay in the house.

    Feng's Mansion was the same as it is now, with infinite beauty. Today's Queen Mother, that is, the Queen of the year, is his sister.

    Feng Hanlin at that time had already paved the way for himself.

    He has a sister who is a queen, so his daughter Feng will also be betrothed to the royal family. This is their Feng's bargaining chip.

    But who would know that the Feng family who has not been out of the boudoir will meet the distant relatives who live in Feng's house, and they will love their concubines.

    Feng is a young lady who has been trained according to the standards of the royal wife since she was a child. She is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. She is a multi-talented woman.

    When she was still young, she met people with similar interests by chance without personnel, so she often met to write poems and pictures together. Over time, she developed feelings.

    Once the emotional fire ignited, it was like a moth to the fire. Regardless of it, Feng and their childhood sweethearts settled for life.

    It is said that the Feng family back then directly mentioned to Feng Hanlin that he wanted to marry his cousin, and that cousin also said that he would propose marriage to Feng's mansion and be hired to marry her.

    However, Feng Hanlin who learned of the matter was furious, not only refused the request of the other party without hesitation, but also directly expelled Feng's cousin from Feng's residence. He had already arranged the place for his daughter, how could he give a chance to a poor boy, he is not worthy!

    After the two were forced to separate, Feng did not eat or drink for several days. Then, under the persuasion of her mother, she realized that she would never have the right to freely choose who she liked.

    This happened in Feng's Mansion, but from the outside, it was a matter of chasing after the wind.

    Feng's opponent wanted to find a distant cousin who had an affair with Feng's back then, but no one could find this person.

    Some people tried to bribe Feng's subordinates, but each of Feng's subordinates had their mouths like clamshells, and they couldn't pry them open.

    Over time, this incident became a rumor.

    For this reason, the Feng family soon married the prince who had not yet become the emperor, who is now the Tiansheng emperor.

    The above is just one version.

    There is another version that is more exciting than this one.

    Some people say that when Feng had a marriage contract with the young Emperor Tiansheng, he was with her distant cousin. Feng Hanlin later found out that he drove the cousin who seduce her out of the house. Half a month after the incident, Feng married into the East Palace, and less than two months after being married, it was discovered that Feng was nearly three months pregnant. The child was born in less than nine months.

    The second rumor refers directly to the life experience of the prince.

    Luo Shuyu was a little surprised after listening to Li Mingjin telling him about these two completely different rumors, and then whispered: "So, this rumor means that the prince is not the father of the emperor?"

    Li Mingjin was amused by his cautious appearance: "Guy, don't be so nervous, our courtyard is protected so that no mosquitoes can fly in, and nothing we say will be heard."

    Luo Shuyu said: "This is not just about hearing about the secrets of the palace, I'm a little surprised."

    Li Mingjin: "It's just a rumor. The father has rectified a round before, and now no one dared to spread it indiscriminately. If the prince is not his own flesh and blood, then how can he become a prince?"

    This rumor pointed a clear direction to Luo Shuyu. There were some unexplainable points in the previous life, and now they have the answers.

    He asked Li Mingjin back and slowly put forward his own thoughts: "Have you ever thought about this if this rumor is true?"

    The prince was able to become a prince because he had a powerful grandfather who was born by the queen and occupied the title of prostitute.

    He thought that the prince fell so fast in his previous life because Shen Mingyun and the fourth prince had first brought down the prime minister.

    The book contains a lot of grievances and grievances between Shen Mingyun and the Fourth Prince and Feng Mansion. First, the prime minister’s eldest son was injured by a general who supported the Fourth Prince. That is, he became a lame man. After that, Shen Mingyun had a conflict with the Prime Minister's Mansion. The restaurant he opened was in competition with a restaurant with Feng family background. The Feng family used their power to oppress Shen Mingyun and prevented Shen Mingyun from opening. Then Shen Mingyun and the fourth prince retaliated.

    But now think about it, the ability of the four princes at the time and these small contradictions that can be solved with money on the bright side are not enough to make a big tree that has been standing in the court for many years and its roots fall suddenly. There is also the help of Emperor Tiansheng. Perhaps the real messenger behind the scenes is Emperor Tiansheng who has been stubborn for many years.

    The praying mantis rushes to the cicada, and the oriole is behind.

    According to Luo Shuyu's knowledge of the prince in his previous life, there is no major problem with his character, and he is also conscientious in the position of the prince. If he becomes the emperor, with the support of the prime minister's mansion, there will be no major problems in ruling and stabilizing the country.

    But he was finally scrapped.

    Perhaps the prince’s life experience was the root cause of his abolition and the destruction of the Feng family.

    It is a big crime to confuse royal blood.

    In Shen Mingyun’s time, there were also countries where royal families existed, but their technology was advanced, and they suspected that a child’s life experience could be verified by scientific means. In their time, there was no such technology. They could only rely on speculation or observation of a person. Face.

    The prince's appearance is more biased towards the queen, which is why no one has always doubted him.

    Thinking about it now, there are very few similarities between the prince and the Tiansheng Emperor.

    When Luo Shuyu's mind was turning a thousand times, Li Mingjin was also meditating, and he patted his thigh: "How do I think you make a lot of sense? Now I think about the prince who has a lot of doubts."

    Luo Shuyu: "What are the doubts?"

    Li Mingjin: "In fact, those man-made rumors back then were not groundless. Although our brothers have inherited the appearance of the mother and concubine, we can more or less see the shadow of the father, such as the eldest brother, the size is very similar to that of the father. Then comes the fourth younger brother. His face is very similar to that of the father, and his eyebrows are very similar to those of the father. On the other hand, the prince is really right to say that he and the queen are somewhat similar, but they are not all like her. He is shorter than our brothers, and looks more delicate. Our other brothers have wider bones than him."

    Indeed, the prince is different from other princes in terms of body shape, and the queen herself is still tall, but the prince is really not strong.

    Luo Shuyu: "In this analysis, the prince is really very different from you. If the father is sure that he is his own, then ten years ago, the person who made the rumors would not be arrested." Because the rumors stop at wisdom, If you don't attack yourself, you are a bit suspicion of catching someone.

    Li Mingjin: "Speaking of arresting people, I heard that the queen's nanny was gone. I saw the nanny who was next to her when I was a child. The woman gave me a snack and never saw it again. "

    Luo Shuyu: "It didn't exist ten years ago?"

    Li Mingjin: "Maybe out of the palace, or maybe..." was secretly executed.

    Luo Shuyu rubbed his arms: "You said that my father knew nothing about this?"

    Li Mingjin looked at him: "I must know that without his permission, who would dare to spread the rumors that the prince is not of royal blood in the palace." Maybe it was he deliberately, deliberately embarrassing the queen and Prime Minister Feng.

    Luo Shuyu regretted: "But in the end he became a prince."

    Li Mingjin: "I suddenly remembered that the queen mother ten years ago hadn't started to worship the Buddha. At that time, the prime minister often went to the palace to see her. The Feng family's power was greater than we thought. If we were to confront them, it would be utterly shocked. Tree."

    Luo Shuyu suddenly said, "There must be the Queen Mother and Feng Family here."

    Li Mingjin: "Yes, this Feng family stretched out too long. If the prince is really not a royal flesh and blood, then after he becomes the throne, the world is afraid that it will really change hands."

    Luo Shuyu: "If that's the case, how can you shake this behemoth?"

    On the 30th day of the new year, they were really rewarding. If it weren't for the eldest prince's sudden indecision, Luo Shuyu and Li Mingjin would not have discovered the doubts.

    Li Mingjin: "Don't worry, let's check where the people next to the queen have gone, then we can guess one or two."

    Luo Shuyu shook Li Mingjin's arm: "The most important thing is to confirm whether that'cousin' is dead or alive."

    Prime Minister Feng sent his daughter and granddaughter into the palace, and the power is overwhelming the world. People like him must have the tactics of the family, and those who destroy their family status will be dealt with. If the Feng family really had a childhood sweetheart. In the condemned past, Feng Mansion will definitely deal with people cleanly.

    Maybe it really won't stay alive.

    Unknown meaning flashed through Li Mingjin's eyes, and his father's position was coveted not only by his sons, but also by his courtiers.

    This palace is really a battle between dragons and wolves.

    Guessing that the prince’s life experience is not simple, neither Li Mingjin nor Luo Shuyu made public, but quietly sent someone to investigate.

    This investigation will take a long time at the earliest. However, now is the time of the New Year, and it is also feasible to send someone to arbitrarily. There will always be a breakthrough, such as the prince's eldest brother, the prince's eldest brother-in-law, one has something to do. The son-in-law who ran to the Huancai Pavilion when nothing happened.

    This Young Master Feng doesn't have any other abilities. Drinking and visiting brothels is the best. This person has a particularly interesting problem after being drunk. He answers when someone asks him.

    Li Mingjin sent someone to approach him, and he really provided a lot of useful information. Although he couldn't understand the Queen's affairs too well, he could ask some details. As long as he could link up with the rumors, he would know almost seven or seven. Eight or eight.

    I thought it would be more difficult to make progress in the investigation, but in fact, after sending someone to investigate, it was actually close to the truth.

    Li Mingjin and Luo Shuyu knew it was the fifth day of the Lunar New Year.

    Things have to be investigated, and the year has to pass.

    On this day, Li Mingjin was hosting a banquet for many of his colleagues in the Criminal Ministry who would take care of him on weekdays.

    Don't look at Li Mingjin bringing a gloomy face to the Xing Department every day, but it's not right to say that he hasn't worked. At least his colleagues approve of him, otherwise he would not come to visit him collectively.

    Luo Shuyu was very happy to see them, and he was not ignorant of Li Mingjin's external comments, but when the officials who worked with him on weekdays were willing to come to the door, he still felt that Li Mingjin was quite grounded.

    At least, during his stay in the Criminal Ministry, officials did not treat him too indifferently because of external evaluations.

    Luo Shuyu arranged for the kitchen to make delicious and delicious food, and received them with Li Mingjin, which can be regarded as respect for the officials of the Criminal Ministry.

    After the full-drinking officials of the Criminal Ministry left, they were all praising Luoshuyu.

    "The three princes and concubines are different from what they imagined."

    "I think he and the third prince are actually quite affectionate, and have you found that the dishes on the table are exquisite, as well as my favorite capers."

    "I also have my favorite sweet and sour fish."

    "There is a braised lion head that I like."

    "The three princes and concubines are great too. No wonder the three princes got married, his pointed chin has become more rounded, and I feel that he is not as cold as before, and I have discussed with me how to spend his birthday with his daughter-in-law."

    "He asked me too."

    "It seems that we can't look at the surface when we look at the problem in the future."

    "It makes sense."

    First, colleagues from the Criminal Ministry came to visit the mansion for New Year’s greetings, and then Lin Haiming brought a wave of generals. Luo Shuyu suddenly found that Li Mingjin’s popularity was quite good. This time Luo Shuyu learned the lessons of his previous life and prepared a sheep for them in advance. Eat roasted whole lamb while drinking.

    Drinking from a big bowl, eating meat with a big bite, happy like a fairy.

    Lin Haiming kept calling his sister-in-law, insisting to toast him, Luo Shuyu also drank two glasses with him, and finally Li Mingjin glared at him, Lin Haiming did not dare to continue making trouble.

    Luo Shuyu wanted to maintain the dignity of the prince and concubine, and after eating 80% full, he left room for them, fearing that they would not drink enough, he even asked them to bring some good wine to the wine cellar to prepare them, and ordered the chef to cook some for them. Sober up the soup and warm up a few rooms in advance.

    Compared with the officials of the Criminal Ministry, the generals are much more interesting. With Lin Haiming in the middle, the atmosphere was very good all night.

    The roasted lamb is also very fragrant. Luo Shuyu fears that they will not be able to eat it enough, so he also asks the chef to add dishes to go with the wine to make the guests feel at home as much as possible.

    These generals have to go north with Li Mingjin some time later, so naturally they have to greet them well.

    However, some generals did not come, and those people were basically related to the prince or the prince, who were put in by them.

    But in any case, as long as most people are on Li Mingjin’s side, he is not afraid of dissatisfaction. According to Ansan, Li Mingjin’s martial arts ranks among the top three among the generals. Learning to communicate with them is the first step to success.

    When it comes to New Year's greetings, Luo Shuyu will not miss a New Year's greetings from Luo Mansion.

    It was supposed to be back to her family on the second day of the Lunar New Year, but he was the third prince's person. Before the end of the year in the palace, the others had to stay behind.

    Luo Renshou looked left and right, and finally looked forward to Luo Shuyu on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year.

    On the same day, Shen Mingyun also sent a cart of gifts back to Luo Mansion. His miscarriage was known to everyone. When Luo Renshou greeted Luo Shuyu, he did not mention him.

    Li Mingjin had to go to the palace beforehand, and Luo Shuyu had lunch at the house, accompanied by the old lady Luo Renshou and others.

    After lunch, the old lady returned to the courtyard first.

    Luo Shuyu and Luo Renshou were drinking tea in the hall. He asked Shen Mingyun openly: "Father, cousin Shen, who is unaccompanied and unaccounted for, was injured on the night of the New Year's Eve. He didn't know how to take care of him. It's better to send someone to see him, after all he belongs to the Fourth Prince."

    He put the words on the bright side, Luo Renshou naturally did not dare to mention that he was approaching the Fourth Prince because of Shen Mingyun.

    The four princes have been more promising recently than before, but Shen Mingyun is too unconvinced, and can't even keep a child!

    At first, Luo Renshou was indeed angry at Shen Mingyun being carried into the Prince's Mansion. Later, the four princes had a drink with him and did his ideological work, so Luo Renshou began to waver again. He had always protected neutrality. , And now even more dare not get close to any prince casually.

    His son-in-law married the third prince, and his nephew entered the fourth prince's mansion. He was a winner in life no matter how he looked, only he knew it and was forced to not please.

    But recently the four princes got close to him, and their attitude towards him was too good. They almost regarded him as a decent father-in-law. On the other hand, the three princes saw him with eyebrows, and there was no sense of pride as a father-in-law at all. , felt that the Fourth Prince was really good, and was angry at Shen Mingyun's entry into the Fourth Prince's Mansion? It's impossible.

    Luo Renshou said with great regret: "Mingyun is also true. Isn't it okay to have a baby in the house? It's not easy to have a baby, hey."

    "Maybe the fate hasn't arrived yet." Luo Shuyu dealt with it casually.

    Luo Renshou suddenly whispered: "I heard that General Zhenbei returned to the capital on the second day of the Lunar New Year. The Third Highness is about to go north."

    Luo Shuyu said sadly: "Yes, he is going northward." The true feelings were revealed right now.

    Luo Renshou made a fatherly appearance: "Your Majesty will definitely want General Zhenbei to stay in the capital. The Third His Highness must take some time to go. What do you do?"

    Luo Shuyu pretended to be strong and said: "He went north, and I was in the house, and there was nothing serious about it."

    Luo Renshou was delighted, Li Mingjin was not in the capital, and Luo Shuyu would not have to rely on him in the future.

    Before it snowed, Luo Shuyu left Luofu. He sat on the carriage and mentioned that Li Mingjin was leaving the capital. His heart was full of reluctance.

    At the same time, Li Mingjin was sitting against Emperor Tiansheng playing backgammon.

    Halfway through the game, Li Mingjin, who is obsessed with chess pieces, suddenly said: "Father, you are not authentic. I have just been married for four months and went to the north."

    Emperor Tiansheng laughed angrily by him: "So what? What do you want." Perhaps during this period of time, I got a feeling of being a father from Li Mingjin, and brought tolerance to Li Mingjin's complaints, and wanted to spoil him more.

    Li Mingjin said confidently: "Erchen wants to take Shu Yu to the north."

    Emperor Tiansheng: "..."

    The author has something to say: The third prince: Daughter-in-law, the wilderness, guess what I think of?

    Luo Shuyu: Ghost story?

    Third Prince: No, it's you and me on the grass.

    Luo Shuyu:...
