Chapter 608: The Storm is Coming
In the early morning of February 7, Su Shanyun took Liang Ge'er back to Tianjin to attend Ning Changqing's wedding.
Due to his ill health, the emperor ordered that the civil and military officials did not need to go to the early court these days, and only needed to submit important matters through the folds.
Yan Jinxuan therefore had time to personally send Su Shanyun to the dock.
It was not yet dawn, and the road was covered with thick snow, so the carriage did not travel very fast.
Yan Jinxuan kept holding Su Shanyun, who was holding Brother Liang, in his arms, and stared at her silently, his eyes were careful and gentle, as if he was looking at a rare treasure.
has been married for nearly two years, Yan Jinxuan's interest in Su Shanyun has not only not diminished at all, but has become more and more intense, which makes Su Shanyun feel happy and a little overwhelmed.
He treated her so well.
"Second master." Su Shanyun freed up a hand and gently touched Yan Jinxuan's sideburns.
"Huh?" Yan Jinxuan responded with a smile.
Su Shanyun put his head into his arms and said softly like a child: "I have put the three sets of winter clothes I made for you a few days ago on the counter of the bedside table. I thought that this spring was colder than usual, so I added a thick layer of padded to it, and you should have changed to wear those pieces recently. ”
"Okay." He nodded and kissed her gently on the side of her cheek.
Brother Liang was already asleep, so Su Shanyun took a cotton blanket to cover his body, and stared at his sleeping face for a while.
"He looks so much like you when he's asleep!" Su Shanyun said.
Yan Jinxuan's attention had been on Su Shanyun's body before, but now she looked at Brother Liang when she heard her say this. He also smiled and said, "Yes." ”
The road from Changxingmen to the wharf was not close, so they had to stay in the carriage for a short time.
Seeing that Brother Liang was asleep, Yan Jinxuan took him from Su Shanyun's arms to the vine blue for babies to sleep on, and then hugged Su Shanyun into his arms.
"On such a cold day, don't go to the splint while you're on the boat." Yan Jinxuan said, a hand had reached through her side, slowly roaming between her smooth jade back and towering breasts.
Su Shanyun blushed and put her head on his shoulder, and said sweetly, "Okay." ”
……………….
In the palace of King Zhong, several ministers had been kneeling on the ground for nearly an hour.
The four princes always sat with their eyes closed as if they had been born as high monks, as if they had not noticed their arrival.
In fact, when they came in, they had a greeting ceremony. But when the ministers knelt down in unison and begged him to do something, he closed his eyes.
Little by little, time is passing. The five ministers, kneeling on the ground, were anxious.
In their opinion, the emperor's condition is recurring at the moment, and it is still unknown whether he will be able to get better in the future, and the once famous third prince is now locked up in Sijing Garden. This is the perfect time for the four princes to strike while the iron is hot and climb the ladder. They hoped that the Four Princes would make good use of this rare opportunity.
Maybe it's because the silence is so uncomfortable. One of the ministers finally couldn't help but break the silence and said: "Fourth prince, as the saying goes, 'success or failure in an instant', if you make a move now, the people of the world, civil and military officials, and even your mother will not be embarrassed by you." Although a few of us are inconsiderate, as long as we join forces, we can still mobilize a lot of people to join, what are you worried about? ”
A faint smile appeared on the lips of the fourth prince, and he opened his eyes to look at the minister who spoke and said slowly: "I have received your intentions, and I am grateful, but I don't do and can't do this kind of thing to take advantage of the situation and cause chaos in the court, so you better go back." ”
On that day, when the emperor woke up after a few days in a coma, he asked the three princes to stay and speak, and he knew that the emperor had intended to hand over the rights of the future monarch to the three princes.
Then, it is impossible for the emperor not to make a move.
At this time, if he didn't know what to do, he had to fight for that position, maybe it would be the crown prince, the second prince and the fifth prince.
He remembered what Guo Yijie said to him before his death.
I have to admit that it was Guo Yijie's timely reminder to him that saved him from falling into the whirlpool of this battle for the throne. It was she who indirectly saved him.
So since the day he woke up, he had given up the idea of the Son of Heaven.
Even when he heard the advice of these five ministers, his heart was unconsciously touched, but then he realized that the third prince would never give up. Even if the third prince's movement is blocked now, what about when he comes out half a year later? Will you be able to beat him then?
It's all their own brothers, so don't be forced to the point of meeting each other.
Besides, he doesn't really want to live the kind of days where you fight all day long, and you defend me.
He had seen so much blood, rain, and flowers and trees with his own eyes, and he didn't want to live so tired anymore.
In life, there are many interesting things worth doing besides the throne.
A sigh came from the mouth of one of the older ministers, and the other ministers followed suit.
"Fourth Prince, you have changed!" The minister, who was the first to sigh, said with a look of regret.
The fourth prince still smiled faintly and said: "Yes, I have changed, but what remains unchanged in this world?" ”
The five ministers weren't sure whether he was using the topic to play or what he was referring to, so no one dared to answer for a while.
The atmosphere cooled down again.
"The sun is about to go down, so go back. I'm going to rest too. The fourth prince said. With that, he got up and walked to his bedroom, which was only a courtyard away.
His steps were so calm, yet so resolute, that he disappeared from the sight of the five ministers in a short time.
From beginning to end, the four princes did not look back at them.
They looked at each other and finally shook their heads helplessly.
They understand that it is ridiculous and doomed to persuade a person who is already not interested in the throne to fight for the throne.
Okay, anyway, this world belongs to their Zhu family, and it is not their ministers', so let the people of their Zhu family play whatever they want.
It's just that......
They shook their heads, couldn't bear to think about it any longer, and slowly got up and left the palace, which seemed too deserted.
Snowflakes were falling outside.
It's getting late.
There was silence all around.
…………
Yan Jinxuan stood by the window and looked carefully at the letter in his hand.
This was quietly sent to him by the third prince through his subordinates.
In the letter, the third prince asked him about the current situation in the imperial court, and asked Yan Jinxuan to pay close attention to the emperor's safety during this time, and said, "If there is an undercurrent now, please encourage everyone to recommend your father Yan Yunpei to return to the cabinet to help his father deal with the affairs of the court."
Yan Jinxuan pondered for a moment, picked up the pen and wrote a reply, asking the messenger to forward it to the third prince. (To be continued.) )
