Chapter 3 (2/2)
Li Zhi obviously couldn't look at his beloved woman so bitterly. He held Wu Mei tightly in his arms and said in a soft voice, ”you are too naive. The queen has never given me a son. But you gave birth to Prince Li Hong and Princess Li Si for me. Naturally, the queen will be jealous of you. For her queen's position, it is reasonable for her to do such a thing 。”
”No, no, no, the queen won't do this. I hope your majesty can't be so poor I miss my son and turn my anger on the queen. ” Wu Mei holds Li Zhi's hand and continues to persuade.
Wu Mei's eyes are dull. Obviously, she has not recovered from the pain of her daughter's death. However, she is still kind and considerate for the cruel queen, which makes Li Zhi's hatred for the queen deepened.
”Let's put this matter aside for the time being. I will arrange my princess first and then discuss it later.” Li Zhi holds the heartbroken Wu Mei to switch the topic to say.
Li Zhi still has a certain city government, otherwise it is impossible to decisively send his uncle, brother, sister and son-in-law to the guillotine this year.
Seeing Wu Mei attracted by his words, Li Zhi pondered and said, ”from now on, two eunuchs will be transferred from the inner province to protect the fifth Prince Li Hong. By the way, two more maidens will be sent to serve him. Let's make arrangements now. ”
The only eunuch who got up in the palace, Li Zhi's eunuch, rushed to get orders and arrange relevant matters.
Wu Mei slowly squatted down and said, ”I thank your majesty for your kindness to hong'er...”
”Hong'er is my favorite prince. How can I ignore hong'er's safety when this happens? The safety of your mother and son is my top priority. ” Li Zhi exclaimed.
As they approached the house slowly, they saw Li Hong lying unconscious on Li Si's body, motionless. Wu Mei was shocked. She ran to pick up Li Hong nervously. Li Zhi followed him and called for the imperial doctor who knelt on the ground in the front hall to investigate Li Hong.
Li Hongyuan thought that after his sister's accident, his activities would be narrowed down by his father's and his mother's concubines. But obviously, he thought too much, and he could still move anywhere in the harem, but there were a few more nervous eunuchs and palace maids around him.
Moreover, these maids and eunuchs were obviously carefully selected by Li Zhi. They belonged to Li Hong and became his personal belongings.
In this way, Li Hong had to worry about naming them again. Although the previous name could still be used, according to the system, they could also give them a new name that the master liked. For one purpose, he called Shunliu.
The two eunuchs, Huameng and cheetah, were named after Li Hong by Wu Mei. It was obvious that Wu Mei intended to test Li Hong and let Li Hong name them himself.
Li Hong thought about it for a long time. On that day, he inadvertently saw the solar terms in Lizhi's study. He moved his mind and named the two maids Xiazhi and Bailu.
Now Li Hong is walking alone by the lake of Ziyun Pavilion in the palace garden. He is just tired of catching fish from the lake. He is sitting in the pavilion with four maidens and four eunuchs standing beside him, waiting for the fifth prince to name the other two eunuchs and palace maids.
Li Hong, with his small hand on his head and melon seeds on his head, looked at eight palace ladies and eunuchs of the same age. These four eunuchs were amazing. They would find a quiet place to practice in the morning and never stop, no matter the wind or rain.
The four maids are also dignified in appearance, heavy in behavior, clever in heart and dexterous in hand. What's difficult is that they are all kind of understanding maids who never talk much.
After holding on for a long time, Li Hong sighed and pointed to the two new eunuchs and said, ”your name is Jingzhe, and his name is manger seed. How are you satisfied? ”
”I thank your Highness the fifth Prince for your name.” The two new eunuchs bowed in thanks.
In fact, for them, it is also a rule summed up in the province, that is, if the new master is willing to name them, it means that the new master recognizes them and represents that he has become a new master.
Seeing that they didn't object, Li Hong looked at the two maids, thought for a long time, and said, ”you're called Xiaoxue, and your name is Xiaohan. When you're bigger, you can call it Daxue or Dahan if you're bigger.” Without waiting to finish, Li Hong himself took the lead in laughing.
The two maids were also very happy and hastened to salute and said, ”thank your Highness the fifth Prince for your name.”
After naming his name, Li Hong began to look at the path in front of the garden. This is the place where the princes who go to Chongwen hall to learn from each other often come to play after school. He came here today to see how his brothers would treat themselves and whether they were the same as before. When they saw themselves, they would pinch their faces or tease themselves.
