Chapter 337: A witty answer
In front of it is the Yinghua Palace, and the crown prince Zhao Yuliang involuntarily stood and looked up at the golden and brilliant building. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
As the crown prince, he has seen too much prosperity in the world, and now when he looks at it again, he can't make any waves in his heart.
The more prosperous things are, the faster they decay, there is nothing to be nostalgic for, even the position of the prince is not a must-have thing, but the only thing he cares about is whether the successor after this is a Ming monarch, whether he can really benefit the common people.
Only noble people can benefit the common people, this is the truth he understood many years ago, and now looking at these sons today, I am afraid that only he and Pei Wang Zhao Yuxian can afford this big responsibility.
And Zhao Yuxian, the king of Pei, is the one who lets him in everything, so he will never have a mind about this position, so he has to protect this position even for the sake of the people of the country.
Yes, his existence seemed to be arranged in the dark, and he knew that he was born with a mission. To be the king of the people and to work for the benefit of the people is his mission, and he cannot hold back at all.
If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight, and if you want to hold a rose, you must bear its wounds.
The struggle for royal power is either life or death, and it has been extremely tragic since ancient times. The prince knew very well how much resourcefulness and patience he needed to get to that position.
In the past, although he had this feeling, it was never as clear as this moment.
He knew very well that once Zhao Yuxun, the king of Jin, came out, the war between the two brothers would begin.
It was inevitable in any way, but now it had arrived much earlier than he expected.
So, no matter how tragic it is, just deal with it with vigor.
The crown prince came back to his senses for a moment and strode into the Yinghua Palace.
The emperor seemed to be ready to have a long talk with him, so at this moment he was already sitting on the dragon chair and looking at the direction of the gate of the Yinghua Palace.
Entering the Yinghua Palace, the prince respectfully bowed to the emperor as usual.
The emperor smiled and stretched out his hand and said, "Liang Er is flat." Then he said, "Sit, I have something to tell you." ā
Zhao Yuliang immediately understood what he was going to say, but he remained silent and said calmly: "Okay." After saying that, he sat down in the same place where he usually sits.
The emperor adjusted his sitting posture slightly, looked at Zhao Yuliang and said: "Liang'er, all the civil and military officials say that you are the material of the Ming monarch, and I think so too, but although you have a high political consciousness, your ability to govern the country is far from enough, so you still need to sharpen a lot." ā
"Erchen understands."
"Since ancient times, all emperors' families have been unable to avoid the struggle for royal power, and kings have inevitably worried about who will be the heir to the throne, and I am naturally no exception."
Zhao Yuliang was not easy to answer, so he just listened respectfully and did not respond.
The emperor smiled again, leaned slightly towards Zhao Yuliang, and asked, "Who do you think has the ability to compete with you for the throne?" ā
The crown prince Zhao Yuliang knew that there was a trap in this, so he replied cautiously: "The son doesn't know. ā
The emperor smiled lightly and said, "You have really grown up and know how to figure out my thoughts." Honestly, I won't mind. ā
"Erchen really doesn't know."
"What if you were asked to choose between King Jin Zhao Yuxun and King Pei Zhao Yuxian?" The emperor stared at Zhao Yuliang's face and asked.
What the hell is going on? The nameless fire in Zhao Yuliang's heart was about to rise, but he still held it back and said softly: "Whoever is chosen to be the heir to the throne must be approved by the father, so the son might as well ask the godfather directly." The crown prince Zhao Yuliang replied unhurriedly.
What a witty answer.
The emperor didn't expect him to answer like this, and he suddenly felt choked, and his face was a little embarrassed.
But the emperor immediately laughed and said: "Liang'er has really grown up, and even my jokes can be seen through." ā
Zhao Yuliang didn't dare to answer, but cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
The emperor looked at Zhao Yuliang for a while, then reached out and patted Zhao Yuliang's shoulder, and said: "I'm joking, don't mind, since I have made you the crown prince, I have acquiesced to the intention of you to inherit the throne, even if I don't say it, you must know it in your heart." ā
Zhao Yuliang nodded his head lightly.
The emperor coughed lightly twice, and then said: "Getting back to the point, I have already issued an order to advance the lifting period of King Jin to May 1 this year, and I should have discussed this matter with you, but at that time, I learned that you went to the suburbs to practice shooting, so I thought that you have always followed my decision in these matters, so I made a decree after discussing with a few old ministers, you won't blame me, right?" ā
Zhao Yuliang still replied calmly after hearing this: "Of course not." ā
The emperor stared at Zhao Yuliang's face intently, and after making sure that he did not have the slightest displeasure, he smiled and said, "Your reaction surprised me very much, but I wonder if you are also so calm in your heart?" ā
"Erchen is happy for King Jin." Zhao Yuliang said.
"That's good. It's time for you two brothers to let go of their old suspicions. ā
"Erchen has long stopped caring about this."
"Really? That's even better. The emperor laughed again.
Zhao Yuliang was silent and turned his face out of the window.
The emperor said, "Let's get to work." ā
"Yes." Zhao Yuliang then turned to face the fold on the table.
The emperor quietly looked at Zhao Yuliang, who was reviewing the folds, but the expression on his face changed several times.
After a long time, the emperor said: "Liang'er, are you really not blaming me? ā
Zhao Yuliang turned his head to him and said, "No." ā
"Really, not?"
"Not really."
The emperor said with emotion: "It's me who is too harsh on you, I'm sorry!" However, the reason why I do this is also to exercise your ability to resist risks and dangers, and I hope you can understand my painstaking efforts. ā
"Erchen understands."
"The most ruthless emperor's family, Liang'er, don't blame me."
Zhao Yuliang had no choice but to nod.
When Zhao Yuliang came out of the Yinghua Palace, the sun was about to set, he looked at the distant mountain, took a deep breath, and walked towards Kunyi Palace.
Just now, when he was on the way to Yinghua Palace, he received a letter sent to him by Empress Jingzhuang, asking him to go to Kunyi Palace after finishing his business.
Entering the Kunyi Palace, the prince saw Queen Jingzhuang standing under the corridor looking at the scenery from a distance, and walked towards her quickly.
Empress Jingzhuang took Zhao Yuliang's hand and entered the house, closed the door and said to him: "Your Majesty has advanced the lifting period of King Jin, do you know about this?" ā
There was a sense of apprehension in his tone.
Zhao Yuliang replied: "I knew it in the morning. ā
"The first person he'll deal with when he comes out will be you, so you'll have to be extra careful from now on."
"The sons will be vigilant, the queen mother, please rest assured."
"Your Majesty's approach is clearly testing you, they all say that tiger poison does not eat children, and he can bear it......" Queen Jingzhuang said while wiping her tears.
