Chapter 341: Please also ask Mr. for some advice
The second prince thought about it carefully, since Shu Hongxuan stood out in the palace examination, his career has been smooth. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
Obviously, as the champion body, according to the previous rules, the champion was awarded the Hanlin Academy to revis, and it was just an official from the sixth grade, but Shu Hongxuan, a yellow-haired boy who had not dried up, made an exception and became a member of the Zhongshu House.
The position of Zhongshu has not appeared in two dynasties.
Neither his grandfather, nor the emperor who had gone before, nor his father, had ever held this position in the decades since his ascension to the throne.
Zhongshu Sheren can be said to be an absolute confidant of the emperor, and he can't be trusted by anyone. What did Shu Hongxuan do?
Shu Hongxuan was only fifteen years old at the time, even if his knowledge was amazing, and he was the youngest Sanyuan and the first in the history of the Great Xia Dynasty, that was not the reason why he could be a scholar in the middle school.
But he just did it, or after trying it in the palace, his father ordered it!
What kind of person can gain the trust of his father at this young age?
The thought that had been buried in the heart of the second prince for a long time finally became clear after seeing his father's actions with his own eyes today.
Not to mention that the father fully supported the new law proposed by Shu Hongxuan, not to say that the father would rather withstand the pressure of Shilin at that time, nor did he scold Shu Hongxuan for half a point, only that after Shu Hongxuan was engaged to Miss Changxing Houfu, Changxing Hou and Changxing Hou Shizi changed their positions one after another, and this matter has already laid a very deep imprint in the hearts of the second prince.
The moment he learned the news, the second prince was very jealous in his heart.
It's just that because of an engagement, even the fiancée's brother and father have been taken care of, and none of them have such treatment!
With all these favors, the second prince had to suspect that Shu Hongxuan was the illegitimate son of his father who was left behind by the people.
"Your Highness! Be careful! Li Mengji's face changed drastically, and he immediately whispered after the second prince asked that question.
The second prince was silent and looked at Li Mengji with a frown.
"Your Highness, don't say this kind of thing again, Meng Ji hasn't heard it today." Li Mengji said very seriously.
"Sir, what do you mean......" the second prince muttered.
"Your Highness, your guess is absolutely impossible to be true!" Li Mengji asserted, his tone extremely firm, without the slightest hesitation.
"How so?" The second prince raised his eyebrows, "Sir, do you know how much the Shushe people have been loved by the emperor over the years, and which courtier have you ever seen who can be treated with such kindness by him?" How old is he? I'm afraid that in my father's heart, Chu will have to back down one or two times. ”
"Your Royal Highness, you have forgotten that the younger sister of Shu Sheren is the future Fifth Princess!" Li Mengji shook his head and said.
"So what? Maybe it is precisely because of what I think that the eldest lady of the Shu family can use this to become the daughter-in-law of the fifth brother, otherwise, with her identity, she would still be promoted as a side concubine. The second prince snorted disdainfully, but he was even more jealous in his heart.
If Shu Hongxuan is really the illegitimate son of his father, Shu Yanhua has the criticism of a natural noble life, and his father refers Shu Yanhua to the fifth brother, all of this seems not like paving the way for the fifth brother, but more like paving the way for Shu Hongxuan, with the fifth brother as a bridge, Shu Hongxuan himself is so good, it is easy for the royal family to recognize this illegitimate son.
You must know that even if Shu Hongxuan and Shu Yanhua are born from the same mother, their fathers are different, so Shu Yanhua and the fifth brother have no blood relationship at all, and it is not impossible to become the princess of the fifth brother.
Li Mengji frowned secretly in his heart, he never imagined that the second prince would have such a thought, after he said this, the second prince seemed to still stick to that ridiculous idea.
"Your Highness, Your Majesty is your father, do you think that with Your Majesty's means, he will let his children be left behind in the people? Even if that woman is the daughter of a businessman, as long as Her Majesty likes it and is included in the palace, she is a respected palace concubine, and if she gives birth to a prince, even Your Highness, you have to respectfully call 'Mother Concubine'.
Your Majesty has been in power for decades, and the majesty has long been prosperous day and night, and no courtier can make Your Majesty bow his head, and any decision of His Majesty, which courtier do you think dares to oppose it? The only time the new law was implemented, in the end, it was the old lord who lost. I think that Your Majesty wants to hold a ninth-rate woman as a concubine, and no one can stop her.
So, Your Highness, your guess is absolutely impossible to be true! ”
Li Mengji was serious, serious, and denied the speculation of the second prince.
The second prince was shocked, lowered his eyes and thought for a while, before standing up and arching his hand at Li Mengji, "Thank you, sir, it's the palace that thinks about it." ”
Li Mengji's figure flashed, avoiding the second prince's courtesy, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Your Highness has tormented Mengji, it's just that Your Highness is confused now, and if you think about it yourself, Your Highness can understand the truth." ”
The second prince sat back in his chair and sighed leisurely, "It's no wonder that this palace is thinking about it, it's the first time I've seen someone who can be so liked by my father." ”
Li Mengji also nodded in agreement, His Majesty has only been so good to one Shu Hongxuan over the years, which scholar sees it and has no jealousy and envy in his heart?
is the same scholar, the same jinshi, and the same courtier, but only Shu Hongxuan can have such a grand occasion, to say that those courtiers in the court have no ideas in their hearts, Li Mengji doesn't believe it, don't you see that even the second prince has ridiculous thoughts?
"It's a pity that the Shushe people can't be used by this palace." The second prince said with regret.
He tried to recruit Shu Hongxuan, but found nothing, and later thought that with Guangping waiting for Shu Xiu and being a bridge, he could pull Shu Hongxuan onto his warship, but Shu Xiu and the mud couldn't support the wall, and they sabotaged his plan three times and twice, causing him huge losses, and now even Shu Yanhua can't get it!
More than half a year has passed, Shu Yanhua is still alive and well, and Mei Shangshu also said that Shu Xiuhe has no way, what a waste!
"Your Highness, in my opinion, the Shushe people cannot be used by His Highness, but it is a good thing." Li Mengji said with the old god there.
"Oh? I hope for Mr. advice. The second prince said politely.
Li Mengji is the doorman he painstakingly invited, and together with Mei Shangshu, he has become his left arm and right arm, and he will ask this gentleman many things.
"Shushe people have today's status, it is given by His Majesty, if Shushe people really agree to His Highness's solicitation, Your Highness, I am afraid you will not be at ease." Li Mengji said meaningfully, "In case the Shushe people know the secret from Your Highness, you will turn around and .....report it to Your Majesty."
The second prince was heartbroken, and nodded approvingly.
"Besides, Your Majesty has given Shushe the current status and supreme glory, if he accepts Your Highness's solicitation, it will be tantamount to betraying Your Majesty, and even ignoring Your Majesty's kindness, such a person, Your Highness, you dare to use it?" Li Mengji said leisurely.
"Sir's right." The second prince said.
"Actually, Your Highness can cultivate a person with the same status as the Shushe people by yourself, and the person who is cultivated by Your Highness, you can naturally only rely on Your Highness and do things for Your Highness wholeheartedly, wouldn't it be better?" A dark light flashed in Li Mengji's eyes, and he said in a low voice.
"It seems that Mr. has a clever plan again, and I would like to ask Mr. for some advice."
