The emperor said: "Yes, King Xuanyuan not only retrieved the antidote, but also took one in front of everyone's interviews. Fortunately, there was a queen that time, if the queen hadn't found out in time, I am afraid that there would be no prince again. ”

King Xuanyuan's strategy can be described as not evil, although King Xuanyuan has only one son, Xuanyuan Yi is alive and well. And the emperor's eldest prince and second prince died not long after a human accident.

The emperor continued: "Thanks to the queen's presence that time, I was fine, but the queen injured her body due to the drug test. ”

King Qing said: "No wonder there have been rumors in the palace that the prince is not in good health. ”

The emperor said: "The prince was born weak, and he gradually lost his abnormality until he was five years old. Over the years, I and the queen have kept him away from the court, away from right and wrong, so that he can grow up healthy. thought that his body was already fine, but who would have thought that this would kill him directly after just one illness. If I had known this, it would have been better for him to live freely as an idle prince. ”

King Qing said: "The deceased is gone, and I also ask the royal brother to mourn." ”

The emperor waved his hand, "I'm fine." Brother Wang, do you know that Old Minister Wei once reminded me to be careful of King Xuanyuan before leaving the palace. But not only did I not believe it at the time, but I also said that he thought too much, but who knew that he was all right by him. If I had believed him at that time, even if I had only listened to it a little, the court would not have been as difficult as it is today. The crown prince will not be under pressure to deal with a few state affairs, so that he will not sleep until he dies of heart palpitations. ”

The prince's death was diagnosed by the imperial doctor as caused by heart palpitations, and after interrogation, it was learned that since Dong Ruyi left the palace and the prince carried the court alone, he had hardly slept well. He slept on the fourth watch and got up on the fifth watch every day, so the affairs of the court were often not finished.

Long-term stress, coupled with a lack of rest for a long time, caused heart palpitations and sudden death.

King Qing was shocked, he didn't think that the crown prince would die because of this. Dealing with the affairs of the court is tiring and annoying, but the prince only deals with a simple part of the diplomatic relations between the DPRK and China. All the border battles went directly to the emperor, and the affairs of the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Industry were also handled by him.

He suddenly understood what the emperor meant, hard work is one thing, and whether he can do it is another. The prince's efforts can be seen by everyone, but the same thing in their eyes is even simple.

He suddenly thought of King Zhou, this kid never seemed to be hurt by that little incident in the court, and the northern frontier was an accident.

The emperor said: "I have said so much, Brother Wang thinks he also knows what I mean, right?"

King Qing said: "Brother Huang wants to find a prince with outstanding ability?"

The emperor nodded: "Ability is one thing, and the other is to be able to listen to words, whether it's right or wrong, at least don't be stubborn." ”

The emperor is still worried about King Xuanyuan, who not only caused the prince to be weak at birth, but also caused him to almost lose the Great Zhou Dynasty.

King Qing said: "What the imperial brother said is that the younger brother thinks that although the fourth prince is not capable, isn't there still a younger brother and two prime ministers to assist him?"

The emperor said: "If the fourth prince is a person who can listen to words, I won't say anything, but what if he can't even listen to the words of the prince's brother?"

King Qing didn't know the bottom in his heart, he said in his heart: "The fourth prince shouldn't be, right?"

He didn't have many opportunities to get along with the four princes, but thinking about the first few contacts, he hesitated in his heart. "Brother Huang, why don't we try?"

The emperor sighed: "Then try it, I hope he can pass your level." ”

King Qing listened to the emperor's tone, and hesitated even more, and he said again: "What about the five princes?"

The emperor directly denied it, "The fifth prince is even worse, he is spoiled by the concubine, not to mention that he is passed on to him, even if he is crowned a prince, I am afraid that he will endanger the court." ”

King Qing suddenly lost his voice, he had heard of the five princes beating and scolding the palace people, but he didn't expect the matter to be so serious that the emperor knew a thing or two.

The emperor naturally knows better than anyone else that he has been thinking about the prince's affairs for more than a day or two. The crown prince has no problems other than his lack of ability. But just like Dong Ruyi said, if the fourth prince and the fifth prince become the prince, then there will be many problems.

King Qing said: "The younger brother will retire first, and the rest will be discussed tomorrow." ”

The emperor was tired, and he waved his hand.

After King Qing left, the emperor said: "I am most optimistic about Ruyi's child, but unfortunately she is not a man." ”

Zhang Fuhai said: "Your Majesty thinks so, but King Zhou wishes she was a woman." ”

The emperor smiled and said, "It's really an old thing that you said." ”

Zhang Fuhai helped the emperor to lie down, "Your Majesty be careful. ”

***

King Qing left the Qinzheng Hall and went to the Buddhist hall where the four princes and the fifth princes were imprisoned.

The fifth prince kicked the door and scolded: "Where are all the people dead, don't think that you dare to snub the prince so much if you have your father to support you, when the prince goes out, the prince will not let go of any of you, together with your family members outside the palace, this ......"

The fifth prince suddenly fell silent, and after half a year, he finally saw the first person except for the fourth prince and the little novice who delivered food every day.

King Qing frowned, the heart of the five princes was really not ordinarily bad.

Before the fifth prince woke up from the shock, he heard the provocative voice of the fourth prince, "Hey, why don't you call, it won't be a sudden turn of your back, right?"

The fifth prince rushed out of the house, and he ran to King Qing, "Uncle King Qing save me, I won't be able to live here for a day." ”

King Qing said: "This king just passed by to see the two princes, and invited the five princes to go back, it is beneficial to read more scriptures." ”

The fourth prince, who found that the situation was wrong, also walked out, and when he saw King Qing, he ran over at the same speed, "Uncle Qingwang......"

King Qing said: "Go back, it will be good for you to familiarize yourself with the scriptures." ”

The four princes and the five princes all looked at King Qing, although the four princes were not as obvious as the five princes, their reluctant expressions were still visible.

King Qing shook his head and left, if it was the prince, the prince would be humbly taught to say a word, the nephew understood, and then did what the elders said.

King Qing immediately thought of Dong Ruyi again, and he smiled and said, "Wang Xi, if it was King Zhou just now, how do you say she would behave?"

Wang Xi said without thinking: "The little prince will definitely say that what the prince said is right, and I will obey the prince's orders." ”

King Qing looked at Wang Xi, and Wang Xi's answer made him a little incredulous, "Do you think King Zhou will read the scriptures honestly?"

Wang Xi replied truthfully: "Whether the little prince will recite the scriptures honestly, the slave doesn't know." But the slave knew that in that situation just now, the little prince would definitely say that. ”

King Qing smiled: "I see, but it's right, it's the same thing whether that girl does it or not, but the attitude is definitely not faulty." ”
