Chapter 69 Deliberations
The crown prince directly dragged the third prince in, and the threat was nothing more than this. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
For other people, such pressure has long been unable to resist, after all, the prince is the prince of a country, and few people are willing to offend, especially this kind of thing that does not seem to be difficult to solve.
Seeing this, Meng Xia suddenly smiled, looked at Meng Cheng and said with great certainty: "Thank you for the reminder, but you really don't need to worry about Ah Xia, because the Third Emperor Brother will never ask any questions that embarrass me." ”
As soon as these words came out, the prince's whole face turned red, but because this was the scope of the Huaide Palace, he didn't dare to be too loud.
"Humph!"
He snorted coldly, and finally didn't say anything more, and after glaring at Meng Xia fiercely, he turned around and turned away.
"Princess, what's wrong with the prince?"
After a while, Caiyi stepped forward and asked worriedly, "Why did you make the prince angry?" ”
Although I don't know what the prince and his princess said just now, Caiyi can see that the two must have broken up unhappily.
It is definitely not a good thing to offend the prince, after all, this prince is the future emperor.
"I don't want to, but there's no way."
Meng Xia retracted his gaze, didn't think about it anymore, and commanded Caiyi: "I know it in my heart, go back." ”
The master and servant stopped talking, and walked silently on the way back.
Just halfway through, the palace people who didn't want to have Huaide Hall chased after them, saying that the emperor asked the ninth princess to go over again.
Seeing this, Meng Xia naturally didn't dare to delay, and didn't ask anything, and quickly followed the palace people who reported the news and turned back.
"Ah Xia, did the prince look for you just now?"
In the backyard outside the palace, Emperor Meng Zhao personally pruned the human-tall potted plant, and his craftsmanship was really average.
Meng Xia stood on the side and nodded: "Back to my father, the crown prince did have a few words with me at the gate of Huaide Hall before. ”
"What did he tell you?" Emperor Meng Zhao still didn't stop the movements in his hands, and he sank steadily and carefully trimmed.
Meng Xia hesitated for a moment, and replied: "The prince didn't say much, he just told Ah Xia to be more meticulous in doing things in the Huaide Palace, and not to make any mistakes." ”
"Axia, when will you also learn to deceive your father?"
There was no need to bully the king, but Emperor Meng Zhao stopped his movements, turned around and looked at Meng Xia with a very stern expression.
"Father forgives the sin, Ah Xia is wrong!"
Meng Xia's face changed slightly, and he immediately knelt down and admitted his mistake: "Ah Xia didn't sincerely want to deceive his father, he just didn't want his father to be too careful, and asked his father to forgive him." ”
"Alright, you get up, I know you're kind too."
Seeing this, Emperor Meng Zhao stretched out his hand to help Meng Xia up, patted her on the shoulder and said, "You are a good boy, it's hard for you!" ”
"Thank you for your understanding!" Meng Xia was stunned in his heart, and secretly glad that he hadn't revealed half a word to the prince just now.
Obviously, the father already knew about the conversation between the prince and her just now, otherwise it would not be like this.
"Actually, what the prince asked is not a top secret, he is so coercive and tempting, why would you rather offend him than reveal half a word?"
The previous anger was obviously not real, and Emperor Meng Zhao had already smiled and asked for the specific reason.
"Being able to enter the Huaide Hall to read the recital for my father, this is my father's grace to Axia! No matter who it is, no matter what it is, without the permission of his father, Ah Xia will not reveal anything without authorization, and he will never live up to his father's trust! ”
Meng Xia's thinking is extremely clear, and it doesn't seem to be a big deal, but once it involves the emperor, it represents absolute loyalty.
No emperor wants his words and deeds to be revealed to anyone else in private, not even the crown prince.
"Okay, my ninth princess really knows the general situation and understands proportion, and she is worthy of her father's love for you so much!"
Emperor Meng Zhao looked at Meng Xia and nodded approvingly: "What can be done and what cannot be done, although the reason is simple, but there are really not many people in this palace who can really know what can be done!" ”
"Father Xie praised, but ......"
Meng Xia couldn't help but look a little curious, hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice: "Father, how do you know what the crown prince told me at that time?" I remember there was no one around, because no one could hear me. ”
"How do you know that there must be no one in this palace where you can't see?" Seeing this, Emperor Meng Zhao couldn't help laughing, and his expression was quite proud: "Silly girl, in this palace, there are only things that my father doesn't want to know, and there are no things that my father can't know, understand?" ”
After hearing this, Meng Xia nodded thoughtfully: "I understand, the safety of my father is related to the safety of the country and the world, and defense is naturally not as simple as it seems." ”
"Inexperienced, but awakened but first-class!" Emperor Meng Zhao praised again, and then changed his words, and said, "Your third emperor brother really never asked you about something that shouldn't be inquired about?" ”
"No, the Third Emperor Brother was worried that I didn't understand the rules of the palace at first, and he was afraid that I would accidentally make a mistake, so he specially told me many times."
When Meng Xia said this, he complained slightly: "Father, don't you know, the third emperor brother is really verbose sometimes......
"Haha, you girl is content, I've never seen your Third Emperor Brother rambling on other people!"
Hearing his daughter's expression when she talked about her imperial brother, Emperor Meng Zhao felt funny from the bottom of his heart.
The royal family has always been a place where brotherhood is extremely indifferent, but the brother-sister relationship between Lang'er and Ah Xia really makes him feel very gratified.
"By the way, Ah Xia, have you ever heard your Third Emperor Brother talk about his views on Hong Changli's corruption in the past few days?"
After a while, Emperor Meng Zhao straightened up a little and asked another question.
Now he is really entangled in his heart, so he wants to hear some fresh voices outside the court.
Lang'er is a good child, not very old, but what he has seen is extraordinary, much more pragmatic and far-sighted than many ministers of civil and military affairs.
"Father, why don't you just call the Third Emperor Brother to come and ask him?"
When Meng Xia heard this, he pouted playfully, and said with some embarrassment: "Father, the harem is not allowed to discuss politics......"
"You stinky girl, if your father asks you to say it, you can say it, just look at your appearance, you know that you talk to your royal brother about political affairs in private on weekdays!"
Emperor Meng Zhao was sharp-eyed, but he didn't mean to blame, but showed a somewhat doting smile: "Okay, no one blames you for anything, it doesn't matter what you say, this is what I approve of you!" ”
This sentence can be regarded as a clear concession of Emperor Meng Zhao to Meng Xia's discussion of politics, and even he unconsciously feels that it seems natural to make an exception for such a thing as to be put on his ninth princess.
Although it is an informal decree document, Chrysostom's holy words are by no means child's play, and whoever wants to take advantage of the discussion of politics in the future will not be able to do it.
"Thank you, Father!" After getting the right words, Meng Xia finally smiled, and said with a look of peace of mind: "The Third Emperor Brother did tell me about Hong Changli, and he said that although this person's crime is unforgivable, it is best to keep his life for now. ”
"I didn't expect Lang'er to want to keep Hong Changli's life, Ah Xia, do you know why?"
Emperor Meng Zhao was a little surprised, so he asked the reason.
