Hearing the emperor say this, Huang Qiong couldn't help but chuckle in her heart. turned his head to look at the prince, but found that although the prince's face was as usual, the cold in his eyes was getting heavier and heavier. At the moment, Huang Qiong, who can be described as a disaster from the sky, can only secretly complain in her heart: "Are you not happy to seal me for some kind of bullshit county king, you have to make me some trouble today." ”

"You didn't look at your eldest son, what has become of his face now? He is the prince, you want to take the school exam, you go to the school and he goes, what do you care about me. These so-called ways of governing the country, who have a county king in the school? Maybe it's just a casual question, but your eldest son has to think about it himself. ”“

"You don't know your own son's character, he is the crown prince, I am just a small county king now, and the forces around me are even more of a tabula rasa. If he kills, am I fucking alive? Could it be that you, the father of the father, are so biased that you really have to play me to death to be happy? ”

"Did your old man take the wrong medicine today? Why are these words trying to provoke the relationship between me and the prince? Don't you know that your eldest son probably wants to eat my flesh and drink my blood to be happy? Are you taking the school exam, or are you deliberately provoking? You want to be a sanniang godson to the prince, you can teach it casually when no one is around, and take care of my. ”

It's just that in the face of the emperor's seemingly casual examination, Huang Qiong, who knew that his answer was wrong, and it was wrong not to answer, and Huang Qiong, who had made up her mind not to compete with the crown prince for the limelight, could only speak: "Father, although the son has studied with his mother since he was a child, his mother's talent still cannot be compared with the great Confucian. ”

"As the saying goes: how high you stand, how far you look. Although her mother is also talented, after all, she has lived in the deep palace for many years, and her vision has certain limitations. Moreover, the so-called letter is better than no book, and the son has lived in the deep palace for a long time, ignorant of the world, and his ability and vision are even more limited. I think it's better for the prince to answer this question. ”

Unexpectedly, as soon as Huang Qiong's words fell, the emperor who frowned and was a little dissatisfied with Huang Qiong's obvious slippery answer had not yet spoken, but the prince on the side suddenly spoke: "Ninth brother, I have heard that Concubine Jing has always had the name of female Zhuge back then. Presumably, the ninth brother who came out of Concubine Jing's hand should be far more talented than a brother. ”

"Now that my father smells it, the ninth brother must not have any concerns, so it is better to answer truthfully. It just so happened that I was a brother and saw the talent of the female Zhuge back then. As a brother, I have admired Concubine Jing for a long time. When the prince said this, although the smile on his face did not decrease by half a point, this smile made Huang Qiong a little worried.

Huang Qiong knew the prince's words, but I am afraid that he did not have a sincere word. The so-called admiration has been for a long time, and I am afraid that it has been painstakingly planning to avenge the revenge of being imprisoned for a long time. originally thought that if he took a step back, he would get the prince's understanding. After all, this matter was provoked by the emperor, not by himself.

But Huang Qiong didn't expect that the prince was directly forced up. Huang Qiong was born to be a person who respects me a foot, and I respect you a foot. Since the prince was aggressive, Huang Qiong simply didn't care about this guy. Facing the emperor directly, he replied: "Since the father asked, the son knows everything, and he has no end to it." ”

"In fact, there are three main drawbacks of the former Tang Dynasty, one of which is the disaster of eunuchs. Since the former Tang Dynasty, the disaster of eunuchs has become more and more intense. These eunuchs not only played the government in their hands, but also excluded officials at every turn. He also controlled the military power and held the emperor's abolition in his hands. Once the emperor violated the interests of the eunuchs, he would kill the emperor at every turn. ”

"The second is the rebellion of the feudal towns. After the rebellion of the former Tang Dynasty, the military power was in the hands of the feudal town. These feudal towns were self-respecting, and the imperial court was prone to rebellion if it did not meet its demands at all. When the former Tang Dynasty put down these rebellions, it consumed a lot of national strength. As a result, the Tubo and Hui ethnic groups in the northwest took advantage of the weakness to enter, and the external and internal troubles further weakened the national strength. ”

Speaking of this, Huang Qiong looked at the emperor's face and paused slightly before continuing: "Quelling the rebellion of these feudal towns not only exhausted the financial resources of the former Tang Dynasty. And once the imperial crusade failed, it was even more majestic, and those feudal towns that supported their own troops were even more unscrupulous. More importantly, these feudal towns often withheld the imperial court's tax revenue, which made the imperial court's financial resources increasingly scarce. ”

"Coupled with the dictatorship of eunuchs, all the major politics of the DPRK and China come from the hands of eunuchs. And those eunuchs who are greedy and only know how to accumulate wealth, where they know how to govern the country. The son thought that the rebellion of the feudal town and the chaos of the eunuchs were the biggest reasons for the collapse of the former Tang Dynasty. This is also the reason why I set the eunuchs who dare to interfere in politics and punish the nine clans. ”

"The third is that the princes and ministers are extravagant and do not know how to sympathize with the hardships of the lives of the people in the world. Several times to welcome the Buddha's bones, it consumed a lot of financial resources. The poems of the former Tang Bai Lotian have exhausted the hardships of all the people in the world. Only when I rose up towards Taizu, the world responded. ”

Huang Qiong's answer can be described as quite decent, because this is almost a copy of the official "History of the Tang Dynasty", criticizing the major events of the former Tang Dynasty. Huang Qiong replied with the official "History of the Tang Dynasty", that is, he answered the emperor's words, which can be regarded as blocking the prince's mouth and reducing the prince's suspicion. Although he was not afraid, he didn't want to tear his face with the prince too early.

Although he also knew that there could be no room for relaxation between himself and the crown prince. People do not hurt the tiger's heart, but the tiger is harmful to people. I don't want to be an enemy of the prince, but this narrow-minded prince doesn't seem to have forgotten the hatred of Huang Qiong's grandfather back then.

It's just that the parties of the year, the dead died, and the cold palace of the cold palace. In the cold palace, the prince's hand could not reach in. But now that he has moved out of the palace, he is also the grandson of the chief culprit back then, an accomplice in the eyes of another prince, the son of the person who took the throne of his mother, and is destined to become the primary target of the prince's revenge.

It can be said that perhaps from the day she was born, Huang Qiong and the crown prince, or perhaps the abolished and reinstated queen, have become endless opponents. The grievances between the two sides, to be precise, on the prince's side are too deep, and this knot will not dissipate with the death of the principal at that time. So Huang Qiong can be said to be extra careful with this prince.

However, the emperor did not seem to be satisfied with Huang Qiong's cookie-cutter answer. It's just that after seeing the prince beside him, except for a meaningful glance at Huang Qiong, the emperor didn't say anything. Seeing Huang Qiong's slippery head, and knowing that the prince was here, the emperor, whose son would not say anything, also lost interest in asking questions.

He knew that with the ability of his ex-wife, the son who came out in person was so capable. will only read from the script, I'm afraid even she doesn't believe it. However, Huang Qiong was reluctant to say more, making it clear that he didn't want to be in the limelight in front of the prince, so he didn't force it. On the contrary, Huang Qiong knew about advancing and retreating, which made him feel very happy.

Thinking of this, the emperor changed the topic and said: "You are out of the palace this time, although the prince is ready for you." But I also heard Gao Wuyong say that you don't have anything else around you except books, not even a few clothes. Your mother is not good at female celebrities, so you must have had a hard time listening to Xue Xuan over the years. ”

"In this way, according to the practice of other princes leaving the palace, I will allocate 200,000 yuan from the inner treasury to you, 500 horses of silk, silk, silk, and cotton. In addition, I am giving you five horses and three thousand catties of charcoal. Grant you 10,000 stone of rice and 30,000 pieces of money for each year. ”

"I know that you have never had anyone around you since you were a child, so I have assigned you ten eunuchs and twenty palace maids from my side. As for the lack of servants, I will allow you to choose thirty of your own men, in addition to those whom the prince has chosen for you. As for this screen, since you like it, I will give it to you today. ”

Speaking of this, the emperor looked at the prince beside him and smiled slightly: "You, the prince, were specially invited by the prince for you." Although it was a bit of a violation, I still fulfilled his brotherhood. I hope that your brothers will work together in the future, and there will be no estrangement. ”

Hearing that the emperor was going to give the screen to himself, Huang Qiong, who dared to ask for it at this time, hurriedly said: "How dare a son take away his father's beloved thing." The father had rewarded his son with enough things, and the son was already grateful. This screen, my son really didn't dare to ask for it. ”

"Ninth brother, this is your mistake. As the old saying goes: the king has a gift, and the minister cannot resign. The ninth brother is full of poetry and books, and this truth should be clear. When the prince saw Huang Qiong's resignation, he said. It's just that although the words are beautiful, they directly pushed Huang Qiong to the position of the minister. The meaning tells Huang Qiong, even if you are a prince, you are a king, and a minister is a minister.

Hearing the prince's words, the emperor waved his hand disapprovingly and said, "You have no jokes, since I have rewarded something, where is there a reason to take it back?" If it is rewarded to you, it will be rewarded to you, and you can just take it well. You are my son, what is it for me to reward you with a dear thing? ”

"Okay, you're about to leave the palace, and I still have something to explain to you, so don't get involved in this screen. Now that you are out of the palace, don't relax your homework, I will take the school exam at any time. Also, you have been living in the palace and have no contact with your brothers. After going out, you should have more contact with your brothers, learn to be close to people, and don't be mavericks. ”

"After leaving the palace, you must abide by the duties of the prince, do not have too much contact with the ministers of the court, and do not form parties for personal gain. Don't think that if you go out of the palace to live, you will get carried away and act recklessly. I felt that one Eternal King was enough, and I didn't want another Eternal King to appear. ”

"If I find out that you are acting as mistakably as the Eternal King, I will not spare you. Since he is a prince and enjoys the melting wealth given by the heavenly family, he must give the face of the heavenly family, and he must not do anything that damages the face of the heavenly family. At this time, the emperor was like a father, carefully admonishing Huang Qiong's behavior after leaving the palace.

After listening to the emperor's three-point advice, there were seven points of beating. Huang Qiong hurriedly bowed and said, "The son thanks his father for his grace, and I also thank the prince for his care and understanding." Please rest assured that the son will abide by the holy decree and abide by his duty. A son is a son, and the eternal king is the eternal king. ”

"That's good, but I'll listen to you and watch you do it. If you have anything in the future, you can always hand me a sign directly. Okay, you go out of the palace, if there is anything missing, you can just talk to the prince directly. Huang Qiong's answer made the emperor nod with great satisfaction, signaling that Huang Qiong could go.
