"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Second Prince has made meritorious contributions to this disaster relief, and has been praying for rain for the people for three days, the emperor has lived up to the painstaking people, and the heavy rain has fallen from the sky when praying for rain, it must be his sincerity to move the heavens, this is really a great blessing for my Annan country......

Qian Zhenting, the squire of the military department, was the first to appear in the queue to show his merit for Xiao Mingyan.

"What Lord Qian said is true, His Royal Highness the Second Prince has indeed made a contribution to disaster relief this time, and has solved the dilemma of the people of Mingzhou who have no rice. But what about praying for rain......"

Fu Wenjie, the head of the household department, faced Xiao Hongzhen, lowered his head and said, "The minister thinks it's just a coincidence." ”

Fu Wenjie's words are light, because he knows in his heart that the work of disaster relief is man-made, and he has to admit it, but if he admits the matter of praying for rain, wouldn't he admit that God will help the second prince to succeed?

Man-made is reversible, the destiny of heaven is difficult to disobey, he is the person of the eldest prince, of course, he has to overturn this matter for the eldest prince.

"Your Majesty, the minister also thought that praying for rain was just a coincidence, and the newly appointed Qin Tianjian also said that it would rain soon...... Of course, His Royal Highness the Second Prince's dedication to disaster relief this time is indeed to create well-being for the people, and the minister thinks that it should be commended. "It was Yuan Li, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, who spoke.

Xiao Hongzhen knew the attitude of the three of them, so he just smiled and said: "What the three Aiqing said is reasonable, Ye Qing's family, what do you think about praying for rain?" ”

Xiao Zhengyuan, who was standing in front of the left, also looked at Ye Boxian silently.

Ye Boxian thought for a while before he said: "The minister thinks that praying for rain is about the result, as for whether the second prince moved the heavens, no matter what, there will be no conclusion, and there is no need to bother. ”

Since Xiao Hongzhen acquiesced in the situation of competing for the throne, he was unwilling to make a decision now, after this incident, he attached more importance to Xiao Mingyan, but it was not the moment to make an immediate decision, so in his selfish heart, he still did not want to count the power of heaven's help on Xiao Mingyan's head, but he couldn't bear to wipe the matter of praying for rain cleanly, Ye Boxian's answer was exactly what he wanted.

Xiao Hongzhen nodded approvingly, and said with a smile: "What Ye Qing said is reasonable, even if the matter of praying for rain is not heaven's help, but Ming Yan is sincere, and it will rain in the end, which is the best result." It's a pity that Yan'er hasn't returned to the dynasty yet, and I can only keep this reward for him first......"

Xiao Zhengyuan was slightly relieved when he heard this.

Immediately carefully tasted Ye Boxian's words, and secretly said that this Ye Houye's mind is really wonderful, that is, he affirmed the merits and sincerity of the second brother, and avoided the topic of heaven's help, so as not to offend himself, and at the same time won the favor of his father, such a multi-layered meaning can be completed in only one or two sentences, how many people can have such wisdom?

Xiao Zhengyuan could feel that Ye Boxian had helped himself secretly these few times, it seemed that Gu Chuhuan had used the right chess piece, and he believed that it would be absolutely possible to pull Ye Boxian into his camp over time.

Thinking of Gu Chuhuan, Xiao Zhengyuan was slightly stunned.......

After leaving the court, Xiao Hongzhen left Xiao Zhengyuan alone and took him to the Shang study.

"Yuan'er, Yan'er has made a great contribution this time, and you, as a brother, should be happy for him."

Xiao Hongzhen and Yan Yue said.

"What my father said is that Erchen has a lot of respect for the second brother, and this time the second brother has made such a monstrous achievement, and Erchen is sincerely happy for him."

Xiao Hongzhen heard the words and played with the taste: "The monstrous ......"

"Yes, I heard that the people of Liangzhou love the second brother very much, and they call it Chitose!"

"Chitose? Yan'er has not yet been crowned king, how can he be called a thousand years old? ”

Xiao Zhengyuan seemed to realize that he was speechless, and said cautiously: "It's the sons who are talking too much, and the people want to come just to express their love for the second brother, and they have no other intentions." ”

Xiao Hongzhen smiled and didn't say anything more.

Xiao Zhengyuan was a little apprehensive, not knowing whether his intentional actions were seen through by his father, or if it was as he wished, his father was already suspicious of his second brother......

"Yuan'er, your mother has been gone for more than ten days, and I want to come to the capital in three or two days, and I will wash her at that time, so you can go with you!"

"The father and the emperor care so much for the mother and concubine, and the sons and daughters are grateful......"

Xiao Hongzhen got up and said with a smile: "It's not too early, you can go back too!" ”

Wind idleness.

Chen Zifeng looked puzzled: "Master Hou, since you support the second prince, why don't you ask for credit for him in the palace?" If the matter of praying for rain can be blessed with the help of heaven, the prestige of the two princes will be greatly increased! ”

Ye Boxian was also a little helpless: "I have followed the saint for so many years, I know more or less his thoughts, he will write down the work of praying for rain, but he can't say it in the court, once he acknowledges His Royal Highness the Second Prince of Tianzhu, then it is equivalent to acquiescing in his status as the prince...... And right now, the Holy One doesn't want to rush to make a decision. ”

Chen Zifeng was very sorry in his words: "Hey, it's a pity that I have such a good opportunity......"

Ye Boxian has a different opinion: "The position of the crown prince is not something that can be obtained overnight, what His Royal Highness does is in his eyes, and it takes a lot of steps to reach thousands .......of miles, as long as His Royal Highness has a heart, he will not worry about big things."

"Yes...... By the way, I'm also curious, His Royal Highness is really a heavenly help? Or is it just a coincidence? ”

Ye Boxian smiled: "There are so many people who sincerely pray for rain, why did you let His Highness catch up?" So, even if it's a coincidence, it's a godsend. ”

Chen Zifeng nodded, he also heard about Xiao Mingyan's words and deeds after arriving in Mingzhou, and couldn't help but admire Ye Boxian's eyes even more.

"Speaking of which, praying for rain is still proposed by Huan'er......"

Ye Boxian took a sip of tea and said slowly.

"Oh?" Chen Zifeng was surprised: "Qin Tianjian can't be counted, that girl can't open the eyes of heaven?" ”

"She's really thoughtful and ...... Way. ”

Ye Boxian's words had some complicated emotions, and Chen Zifeng realized almost immediately: "Master Hou's words seem to have some deep meaning? But what did the girl do? ”

Originally, the ugliness of the family could not be publicized, but Ye Boxian was really depressed. After Ye Zihan's incident, he thought carefully about the past and the future, and vaguely felt that Liao's plain leading him to Huan'er's yard must have been designed in advance, intending to let him see the most unbearable side of Huan'er. But in the end, it was found that the person who had an affair with the man was actually Han'er, but Huan'er was safe and sound, so it is not difficult to guess the trick in this: Huan'er must have planned it, so as to ruin Han'er's innocence.

He really hated these intrigues and deceitful in the inner house, and he knew that his wife and concubine had designed it first, but he still couldn't accept that the child he left behind with the woman he loved in his life would make such a method......
