Chapter 272: Asking Father to Marry [Three Watches]
"The prince of the country......" Emperor Chengde's voice revealed a kind of uncertainty, which made it difficult for people to figure out his thoughts at all. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Shu Hongxuan is calm, he has been with His Majesty for so long, not to mention knowing him very well, and he can always avoid some of his dislikes.
"Then who do you think is qualified to be the prince of the country?"
Emperor Chengde didn't seem to want to let go of this close minister whom he had always valued, and asked him bluntly, not giving him a way out, nor accepting Mu Ling's ambiguous answer.
Shu Hongxuan's heartbeat gradually stabilized, whether this move was a temptation by His Majesty or something else, he knew what his answer was.
"Your Majesty, in the humble opinion of the ministers, the prince of the country, only the prince can do it."
Shu Hongxuan looked directly at Long Yan a little presumptuously, and said his answer very firmly and seriously.
"Oh? In your heart, only the crown prince is qualified to be the prince of the country? Emperor Chengde raised his eyebrows.
Both of them knew that this "prince" was not a prince in the sense, but a prince who was now canonized by Emperor Chengde in Great Xia.
"Don't worry about rumors, I won't believe this kind of nonsense, go and appease Hua Niang's heart."
Emperor Chengde changed his words, and talked about the rumors he said at the beginning, "My country is not used by people to carry out conspiracies at will. ”
At the end of the words, there was already a bone-chilling coldness in his voice, which frightened Cai Sande, who had been standing aside as a wooden man, and his heart trembled.
Obviously, Your Majesty is angry, making fun of the rivers and mountains of Great Xia, and only asking the people behind the scenes to have a talisman, otherwise even if there are nine lives, it will not be enough to compensate.
Shu Hongxuan was obedient and knew that he should leave, "Weichen retired first." ”
When Shu Hongxuan's figure disappeared, Emperor Chengde said with emotion: "Rong Jing really deserves to be the person I fancied, and he didn't have delusions because his sister was going to marry Xiao Wu, so good!" So much better! ”
Whether it is Xiao Wu or Rong Jing, he left the prince's loyal ministers, Xiao Wu is a brother, he has no heart for the dragon chair, he can be an auxiliary to the prince, Rong Jing is smart by nature, often has whimsical ideas, has a very set of ideas for the government, and can always hit the bull's-eye when looking at problems, since he entered the office, all the rules advocated are very beneficial to the rule of Great Xia, and more importantly, he is still young, after he Bintian, he will be a good helper of the prince.
It would be a pity for such a courtier to have delusions because his brother-in-law was the fifth prince in the court. He also didn't want to see the brotherly wall between Xiao Wu and the prince, and he was relieved that both of them could firmly support the prince.
Cai Sande lowered his head slightly, listened to His Majesty's emotion in his heart, and thought, tomorrow I will find an opportunity to quietly reveal a little bit to the Shushe people, and now, the Shushe people will not only be able to win the favor of His Majesty, but will also be the close ministers of the new emperor in the future, and the close ministers of the two dynasties, what a rare opportunity.
Just thinking about it, a small yellow door came in outside the door to report: "Your Majesty, Concubine Jing is asking to see you outside." ”
Emperor Chengde's eyebrows moved, "Concubine Jing is here?" It seems that she also knows, so let her in. ”
"Yes."
After a while, Concubine Jing walked into the imperial study alone, and saluted when she came in: "The concubine respectfully invites Your Majesty to be proud." ”
"Pingshen, why are you here, but it's rare to see you come here to look for me in the imperial study."
This kind of behavior of coming to the imperial study to find him will only be done by the imperial concubine in the harem, Concubine Jing has always abided by the rules, and will not do such a move to be grabbed by others.
"Your Majesty, the concubine is here to ask you to give Xiao Wu and Hua Niang the will to marry." Concubine Jing had a hint of eagerness and apprehension in her voice, she didn't know what Her Majesty thought of the rumors this time, in case Your Majesty didn't like it in her heart, it was very likely that she would not let Hua Niang enter the door.
"You came here because you knew the rumors, didn't you?" Emperor Chengde said affirmatively.
Concubine Jing smiled, "Your Majesty, I don't know which person with a dirty heart released those rumors, the concubines looked at it, like people who were jealous of Hua Niang, and now the whole capital is boiling, and it is not good for Hua Niang, so I simply gave them two children to marry first, and there are concubines to protect them, to see who has the courage to give Hua Niang a lot of anger." ”
Emperor Chengde laughed, "I thought you would be dissatisfied with Hua Niang." ”
He has been on the throne for decades, and he has governed Great Xia in an orderly manner, and he has scoffed at the theory of gods and ghosts, not to mention that he will be affected by such rumors, he is not the kind of monarch who will be at the mercy of others because of some rumors, if the people behind the scenes think that he will dislike Shu Yanhua, then it is a miscalculation.
This kind of rumor, he thought that Concubine Jing would come to him, but he didn't expect Concubine Jing to come to him one step ahead of him, and he also put forward the idea of giving marriage to the two children.
"Your Majesty, Hua Niang was grown up by me, the concubine thinks that she is dozens of years old, and she can't even see through her temperament, such a good child, the concubine will not let go, the daughter-in-law of the concubine, she is the only one."
Concubine Jing smiled, and also used this to express her insistence to His Majesty.
......
At the gate of Shangjing Jingcheng, the soldiers guarding the city saw two fast horses coming straight from a distance, and they were not allowed to ride horses in Beijing for no reason, so that the fast horses and whips were very easy to have accidents, the soldiers looked at each other, several people crossed with spears, and one person stepped forward and shouted loudly: "Who is coming?" No horses are allowed in Beijing! ”
The two horses galloped from a distance, without slowing down, and just when they thought the fast horses were going on a rampage, they came to a halt five paces in front of the soldier, neighed, and leaped high with their front hooves.
The man on the horse took out a token from his arms, and the soldier who shouted knelt on the ground: "Your Royal Highness the Fifth Prince! He waved at his colleagues behind him, and the soldiers behind him gave way, and the two horses rode by, much slower than when they galloped outside the city, and did not rampage in Beijing.
"Fifth Highness!" The guards at the palace gate saw Zhou Tingyu coming in the dust and saluted one after another.
Horses are not allowed to be ridden in the palace, even if Zhou Tingyu's heart is already anxious, he still dismounts, flicks the reins, and walks inside past the guards guarding the palace gate, and when he arrives, he simply runs.
The palace people who came and went saluted him one after another, and the wind disappeared after a while, and they all wondered why His Highness was in such a hurry.
Far away, when he saw the three words of the imperial study, Zhou Tingyu's steps unconsciously accelerated again, at this time, his father would usually review and fold in the imperial study.
Zhou Tingyu went straight to the imperial study, and before the little yellow doors had time to salute and make a statement, they saw the Fifth Highness rushing in, and it was too late to stop it.
"Father, please give marriage to his son and Hua'er!"
Zhou Tingyu directly broke into the imperial study, and before he could see who was there, he shouted when he entered the door and knelt on the ground to ask for a decree. (To be continued.) )
