Chang'an City is full of traffic, and the faces of the people are full of rich and happy smiles.
This year, the Emperor of Daye did a lot of things. Among them, the two most important ones that have gone down in history are the beginning of the opening of the canal and the dredging of the ditch.
The opening of these two channels made Caoyun much more convenient at once, and the supply of supplies in various parts of the south, the transportation of military grain for the garrison in the south, and the irrigation of the people along the way have all been greatly improved.
"Queen, I'm so happy today. Dredging the north-south transportation can be said to be a wish of mine for many years, and now I have finally taken this step. The emperor walked into the queen's bedroom, omitted the greetings, and directly grabbed the queen's hand and said.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty for getting your wish!" The queen saw that the emperor was so happy after a long absence, and she was also infected, and her smile was bright and beautiful.
"However, this luck is still not very convenient for Chang'an City, but Luoyang is much better. Moving the capital to Luoyang is my next plan. The emperor said and looked into the queen's eyes, as if he wanted to see appreciation and adoration in those eyes.
The queen smiled and nodded, "Just do what Your Majesty decides!" ”
Seeing the queen's such a bland reaction, although the emperor was a little unhappy, it did not affect him to continue to talk about his ambitions.
The queen only remembered that until she fell asleep, the emperor was still talking about his great plan. When I woke up the next day, the emperor had already gone to the court.
Thinking of the many grand ambitions last night, they are all unthinkable by ordinary earth kings. The queen is sincerely proud of the emperor.
After calculating in her mind the time and human and financial resources required for these things, the queen frowned unconsciously. Your Majesty, this is too presumptuous, how can he do so many things in this short life? Do you want to persuade him not to rush in?
At noon, the emperor came to the imperial study.
He sat on the dragon chair in the imperial study, closed his eyes and recalled the achievements of the past year, when he suddenly heard a report from his father-in-law that the prince asked to see him.
"Let me in!"
Emperor Daye opened his eyes, got up and did a good job, his eyes puzzled. Why did the prince come to him at this time?
"Son-in-law, see father!" The prince walked to the center of the imperial study and saluted.
The emperor looked at this chubby son, he seemed to be fatter recently. I frowned slightly.
"Have you had a good morning exercise lately?" Originally, he didn't want to say this, but he didn't expect to blurt out unconsciously when he saw Yang Zhao's huge body.
Yang Zhao was obviously unexpected, and replied after a pause: "Back to my father, I am not feeling well today, so I didn't practice in the morning." ”
After speaking, he peeked at his father's reaction from the corner of his eye, obviously expecting his father to be unhappy about it. Bow your head and wait to be scolded.
"If you are not in good health, you can rest for a few days and make a list of things to eat!" The emperor sighed and said softly.
Yang Zhao was obviously shocked again, his father didn't scold him. So he raised his head and smirked at his father, "My father promised his son one thing, but now he has forgotten it?" ”
The emperor looked at Yang Zhao, obviously having forgotten.
"What else do you kid buy, just say anything!" The emperor scolded with a smile, staring at Yang Zhao's eyes and waiting for a reply. At the same time, my mind kept turning through the old memories, what did I promise that I never realized?
Yang Zhao lowered his head embarrassedly, blushed and said, "At that time, when Concubine Cui was convicted and deposed, my father promised to help her restore the throne. It's been many years now......"
Before he could finish speaking, the emperor patted his head and said with a smile: "You see I have forgotten about this, there are too many things." It would be nice for you to tell your father sooner. ”
Yang Zhao's expression was a little twisted, and he lowered his head and muttered in a low voice, "Erchen didn't dare to squeak when he saw that his father was too busy, and recently I saw that you were finally free, so I looked for an opportunity to talk." ”
When the emperor heard that the prince was so filial and sensible, his heart was moved. The tone was softer.
"Although I'm a little busy, but this little thing of yours is not troublesome, I will be reinstated now. Next time, tell your father as soon as possible! ”
The crown prince was overjoyed when he heard this, "Well, my son-in-law thanks my father, Emperor Longen." ”
The emperor picked up the pen and paper on the desk and began to write the edict, just wrote two strokes, suddenly stopped, lifted the brush, "No, this Cui family has been convicted, and now I don't know where the Cui family is or what the situation is." I'd better send someone to find out and see the situation before issuing an edict! ”
The emperor put away the pen and paper as he spoke, and enriched the guards at the door to check the whereabouts of Concubine Cui.
The prince's originally bright eyes suddenly dimmed.
The emperor knew that there was no way to comfort him, so he stopped talking, got up and walked off the dragon chair. took the prince's hand and walked out.
"Father, where is this going?" The prince asked uneasily.
The emperor turned back and smiled at the prince, "Go to your queen mother's place, I heard that she set a table of Yangzhou specialties tonight." Let's go and try it! ”
The prince was still frustrated that Concubine Cui's matter could not be solved immediately, but now when he heard that there was something delicious, his eyes immediately lit up.
When the emperor found out about his reaction, he immediately regretted taking him to eat. This prince has become fat like this, how can he be the emperor when the time comes? It must be a regal!
Regret is regret, the so-called Jun Wu jokes are saying that the emperor can't go back on what he said.
While she was eating, the queen remembered what she had thought in the morning.
"Can you tell the prince about the great things that Your Majesty said last night, and let him remember that if we all go west one day, he can complete it on his behalf." The queen said softly, while looking at the emperor's face.
The emperor's face showed a little anger, "I am talking about my own plan to be completed, and the crown prince has his own plan after succeeding to the throne. The queen should not be confused. ”
He was angry that she didn't believe she could accomplish these things in her lifetime.
The queen remembered the record of the fallen king thousands of years later, and she could not let him go to ruin like this. Even at the risk of letting him go to the cold palace.
"Which of these things Your Majesty wants to do is not a great achievement that can go down in history? Any one of them can make His Majesty famous for eternity, so why take risks? The queen spoke righteously and did not avoid the emperor's angry gaze.
"Okay, you're a queen, you're the smartest, I'm too self-righteous, aren't I?" The emperor's eyes were on fire, he got up, went out, and walked away.
The queen's resolute eyes suddenly burst into tears, and the prince sat on the side and didn't know what to do.
The emperor walked on the road and sighed. Why did the queen misunderstand me so much? Am I the kind of person who wants to go down in history and is greedy for merit?
He just didn't believe that this fat son of his could do what he had left behind. He wants to do all this well in his lifetime, leaving his children and grandchildren a complete and prosperous country.
But he couldn't tell anyone about that? In particular, the prince should not be allowed to know.
