104 Intentional favoritism
At sunset, in the imperial study of the Taiji Palace, Xuanyuan Tuo held a book on the art of war in his hand, and sat on the couch and watched it.
A slight knock on the door outside the study sounded: "Your Majesty, Chen Shuang asks to see you!" ”
"Come in!" Xuanyuan Tuo put down the military book and straightened his body.
"See the emperor!" Chen Shuang entered the study and gently salted the door of the study.
"No need to be polite, how is the matter going?"
"Your Majesty, this matter shouldn't be so simple!" Chen Shuang has always felt that this matter seems to be controlled by someone behind the scenes, but now all the clues of Yiqiē point to King Xuan, although it seems to be the case on the surface, but all the clues are even more suspicious because they all point to the same direction.
"If you have anything to say, you can say it directly!" Xuanyuan Tuo faintly felt something, as the emperor, he was a little more keen than others.
"Emperor" Chen Shuang was about to report when the knock on the door of the study rang again.
The two looked at each other, at this time, who would come.
"Father, sons and daughters come to greet their father!" The voice of Prince Xuanyuan Ze sounded outside the door.
Xuanyuan Tuofu, how could he come?
"Come in!"
As soon as Xuanyuan Tuo finished speaking, as the door of the study was opened, three people came in, and these three people were Xuanyuan Ze, Xuanyuan Yan, and Xuanyuan Che.
"Why are you three here?" Xuanyuan Tuo looked a little surprised, but that kind of surprise was not shown on his face.
"Father, my son is unwell today, and my father sent someone to send so many supplements. Erchen is here, thank you for coming! Xuanyuan Ze showed a sincere smile on his face, showing his kind eyebrows.
It's disgusting! Xuanyuan Che thought so about Xuanyuan Ze in his heart, he obviously wanted to make a small report with his father, this kind of acting skills, he really didn't dare to compliment.
"Yan'er, Che'er, is there anything you have to do here?" Xuanyuan Tuo glanced at Chen Shuang, and Chen Shuang nodded at him.
Xuanyuan Yan saw all the eye contact between the two of them, and immediately spoke: "Father." The poison in the eldest brother. It is indeed a luminous cup that I gave him, but according to people familiar with the matter, the luminous cup I gave to my eldest brother is likely to have been dropped! ”
"Dropping a bag? Is this really the case? Xuanyuan Tuo was puzzled.
"Father. The sons had a different view. The battle-hardened King Xuan. How could he be so careless and be calculated by a guard? Presumably it's not that simple, right? ”
"Big brother, what do you mean by that?" Originally, Xuanyuan Che has always been good-tempered. But when he saw Xuanyuan Ze slandering his second brother Xuanyuan Yan like this, he didn't feel good in his heart.
"Nonsense!" Xuanyuan Tuo was a little angry: "Although the three of you were not born to the same mother, they are brothers after all, how can you guess randomly!" ”
"Yes, Father!" Xuanyuan should arrive.
"This matter, don't mention it again, there must be some misunderstanding in the middle, Chen Shuang, the Ministry of Death and Punishment is investigating this case, and the assassin must be allowed to tell the truth!"
"Obey the order!"
Xuanyuan Tuo waved his hand, and Chen Shuang exited the study and closed the door.
Xuanyuan Ze was unconvinced, but his face was unmoved: "What my father taught me is that this assassin must also want to destroy the relationship between our brothers, from now on, our brothers will definitely work together to help our father govern the country together!" As he spoke, Xuanyuan Ze also glanced at Xuanyuan Yan in a friendly manner.
What an old fox, Xuanyuan Che disdained it in his heart, but because of his father's face, it was not easy to attack.
"Father, rest assured, the son will not let his father bother!" Xuanyuan Yan stood aside and said.
"Okay, I've been reading the book for a long time, I'm tired, you three brothers should step down!"
Xuanyuan Tuo leaned back on the dragon chair and rubbed his eyes.
Xuanyuan Ze, Xuanyuan Yan and Xuanyuan Che withdrew from the study one after another.
After a while, a person flashed out behind the bookshelf in the study, this person was wearing a splendid phoenix robe and a golden phoenix crown on his head, it was Queen Yue Ning.
"You've heard it all, your sons, it's not worry-free!" Xuanyuan Tuo didn't open his eyes, he rubbed his eyes and sighed, it was enough to worry about national affairs all day long, and now there seemed to be something wrong between his sons, and he was a little more irritable in his heart unconsciously.
Yue Ning walked to Xuanyuan Tuo's side with concern, and two white jade-like fingers gently put on Xuanyuan Tuo's shoulders and massaged him behind him.
"Ning'er, you still know my heart best, I am very old, this throne will have to be handed over sooner or later!"
Yue Ning's fingers paused: "The emperor should be old and strong, where is he old?" ”
Xuanyuan Tuo listened to Yue Ning's words, although he knew that she was just comforting herself, but he still couldn't help but snicker in his heart: "It's still Ning'er, you treat me as a treasure, and share your worries for me all the time!" ”
"Where did the emperor say, only blame the harem for not being able to interfere in politics, seeing that the emperor is working hard for state affairs every day, the concubines are really a little distressed!" Yue Ning said while massaging, and the warm breath spit out in Xuanyuan Tuo's ear, causing a warm ripple in his heart.
"Ning'er, did you hear what Ze'er said just now?" Xuanyuan Tuo closed his eyes, comfortably leaned his body on the dragon chair, and let Yue Ning massage him.
"I heard it all just now, what do you think about this matter, Your Majesty?" Yue Ning put down his massaging hands, and Xuanyuan Tuo took advantage of her unpreparedness to take her into his arms.
Yue Ning sat on Xuanyuan Tuo's lap, his face was shy, he was really better than the girl who had just come out of the pavilion.
Xuanyuan Tuo looked at the beautiful girl in his arms, and the corners of his mouth pulled lightly: "You and I have been married for many years, and I don't know how Yan'er's temperament is, there must be a traitor who is obstructing it, and wants to destroy the relationship between their brothers!" ”
When Yue Ning heard this, he was very moved in his heart: "The emperor really thinks so!" The concubines thank the emperor for Yan'er! ”
Xuanyuan Tuo raised his eyebrows: "I am the king of a country, how can I tell a lie?" Besides, Yan'er was born in October when you were pregnant, all these years, you have taken care of the harem for me, and I have seen it in my eyes, although Yan'er's temperament is colder, but the inside is very much like you! ”
I don't know how long it has been, because Xuanyuan Tuo has a lot of opportunities, and the two of them always get together less and leave more, like today's study to talk, if it weren't for Ze'er's incident, such a mutual confession seems to have been a long, long time ago for Yue Ning.
Yue Ning thought about it, and the corners of his eyes turned slightly red.
Xuanyuan Tuo looked at her, and a trace of distress flashed in his eyes: "These days, I have treated you badly!" ”
"Don't say that, the emperor doesn't say that, everything the concubine does for the emperor is due!" Yue Ning's long eyelashes trembled, and a tear trembled and fell.
Xuanyuan Tuo stretched out his hand and wiped away the tears that had just fallen: "Silly Ning'er, it's so stupid!" ”
Listening to the emperor say this, Yue Ning's thoughts seemed to return to more than 20 years ago, as if he met for the first time by the lotus pond that year, his eyebrows were as bright as the sun and the moon, her eyes were extremely soft, she called him Brother Tuo, he called her silly sister, falling in love with someone, slowly becoming stupid in love, how could it not be a happy thing?
