"The prince is here, you don't have to be polite", Liu Yan got up with a smile and said.

"Aunt Xie", got up and glanced at Liu Rong, and Liu Rong knelt on the side.

However, after sitting down, Liu Rong remembered that his father ordered him to temporarily supervise the country and preside over the court meeting, and he forgot to ask the emperor's grandmother.

Thinking of this, Liu Rong immediately got up and went out again, bowed and said: "My grandson was ordered by my father to temporarily take over the affairs of the court, but he has not yet reported to his grandmother, please forgive my grandmother!" ”。

Who would have thought that the Empress Dowager Dou was not angry at all, but said: "The emperor has ordered someone to inform the mourning family about this matter, but Liu Rong, as the crown prince, when the emperor is sick, he must take care of the government and politics, so that your father can recuperate with peace of mind."

"Grandmother Xie, in the affairs of the court, the grandson regularly reports to his father and grandmother."

Although Empress Dowager Dou will intervene in the affairs of the court, she is still much kinder than the old rogue Empress Lu.

In history, when Emperor Jing died of illness, Liu Yu ascended the throne and became emperor, only 16 years old.

The supreme authority of the entire Han family, even the military power, is actually in the hands of the Empress Dowager Dou, but the Empress Dowager Dou did not go to the middle of the court like Empress Lu, and frantically installed the people of the Dou family.

is also like Empress Lu to seal Zhu Lu, among the relatives of the Dou family, he wantonly sealed the marquis.

The most important point is that there is Empress Dowager Dou, but it has played a role in suppressing Liu Yu's mother Wang Huan, otherwise with Wang Huan's temperament, she will definitely be crazy to install in the court, Tian and Wang

If this is the case, it is really hard to say whether Liu Yu, who has just succeeded to the throne, can withstand it.

What Mrs. Dou wants is very simple, and there are only two things she cares about the most, first, so that the wealth of the Dou family can continue, and secondly, if there is any major event in the court, she must report herself.

In order to keep the wealth of the Dou family, Mrs. Dou also took great pains, and even took a double insurance, when Liu Rong was not crowned prince, Dou Ying almost took the initiative to get close to Liu Rong, and Dou Guangguo took the initiative to propose to the Son of Heaven. Behind these things is the shadow of Mrs. Dou.

In this way, everyone in the world knows that when the prince of the dynasty was suggested by Dou Guangguo, Marquis of Zhangwu, the Son of Heaven decided to establish the prince, and Liu Rong couldn't accept this favor of the Dou family.

Moreover, Liu Rong made a marriage contract with Chen Ajiao, and the future queens of the Han family are all members of the Dou family, so the wealth of the Dou family can naturally be guaranteed for a long time.................

Solidly, for Liu Rong, Empress Dowager Dou was not too harsh.

Seeing Liu Rong coming, she glanced at Liu Rong on the side, but Queen Bo got up and left.

……………………………………………………………………

After a while, the Empress Dowager Dou, who was sitting on the bed, said to Liu Rongyan: "Prince, these days, the queen often goes to the mourning family, and tells the mourning family that she has no children, and she is very uneasy in her heart, and the mourning family also knows that the queen is not easy, and she is also very pitiful in her heart. Therefore, I want to choose one of the emperor's sons as the queen's heir, but many of your brothers have been crowned kings and gone to the vassal states, and I don't know if the prince is willing to succeed to the queen's ...............name."

Empress Dowager Dou's words selectively ignored the son of Wang Erjiao, who was still in the palace at this time............

Empress Dowager Dou suddenly asked, and Liu Rong was almost a little stunned.

In this matter, Mrs. Dou was also involved??

The succession of the prince has been there since the time of Emperor Hui, but the Han family has indeed never had such a thing as a succession prince.

There are indeed too many things involved.

Liu Rong was stunned for a moment, and immediately became a little excited in his heart, and Queen Bo finally couldn't bear it anymore and started it.

It's just that I don't know what means Queen Bo used to get Mrs. Dou to tell her about it in person.

However, Liu Rong thought about it, indeed, the succession of the crown prince to the name of the queen, such a thing can only be done if the queen mother personally proposes it.

It's just that it doesn't matter how Queen Bo did it, as long as she can do it.

After hearing this, Liu Rong, who was still kneeling in the seat in the last second, knelt down and said: "The queen is benevolent, grandson...... Naturally, grandchildren are willing to ............."

Originally, to succeed Liu Rong, first of all, Liu Rong's mother Li Ji needed to agree, and a few months ago, Li Ji died, as long as the Son of Heaven and Empress Dowager Dou agreed, it would be feasible.

Seeing what Mrs. Dou meant, Dad must have nodded in agreement, otherwise, it would be impossible for Empress Dowager Dou to come forward and talk to Liu Rong about this.

"Since the crown prince has agreed, the mourning family will discuss with the emperor and bring Zongzheng to discuss how to do this."

"Grandson obeys!" , Liu Rong bowed again.

Succeeding the crown prince, such a big thing, the Han family has never done it, so naturally there is no precedent to follow.

In Liu Rong's view, this matter is not only for the father to discuss with Zongzheng, but also with the important ministers of the court.

And when Liu Rong was getting up, the rest of his eyes noticed Chen Ajiao on one side.

Then Empress Dowager Dou said: "The prince and Liu Rong are here, so it's better to accompany the mourning family to eat."

Empress Dowager Dou is in Changle Palace, few people come here on weekdays, and they often eat by themselves, although the Han family does not have the tradition of three meals a day, but the royal family is still royal, when is hungry, when to eat.

Liu Rong was named the crown prince, and after moving into the palace, the few newly transferred cooks from Shaofu didn't know that Liu Rong had the habit of eating lunch.

It was only after Wang Yan reminded him a few times that he learned that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was going to eat at noon.

I remembered that I hadn't done anything a few days ago, but I was afraid to die, and I was afraid that I would make His Highness unhappy and punish myself.

"Grandmother has a word, and grandchildren should obey their own fate!" , Liu Rong arched his hand and said.

Without waiting for Liu Concubine to speak, Chen Ajiao, who was kneeling beside Liu Concubine, jumped up first, "Gillian likes to eat with her grandmother the most."

Hearing this, Empress Dowager Dou got up, beckoned, summoned Chen Ajiao to her, stroked Gillian's little head, and said: "It's still our Gillian who has a sweet mouth, and my grandmother also likes to eat with Gillian."

After speaking, he asked again with a smile: "What does Gillian want to eat?"

"Back to my grandmother, Gillian wants to eat roasted mutton ..................."

"Okay, then listen to Gillian."

Without waiting for Empress Dowager Dou to say more, the attendants on the side immediately left the palace to pass the meal.

Liu Yan, who knelt down and sat down, said with a smile: "Mother, you are too fond of Gillian, if you go on like this, one day you will not be lawless."

Holding Chen Ajiao's hand, Empress Dowager Dou said: "The mourning family only has this one granddaughter, the mourning family is not favored, who spoils it?" ”。

In this sentence, Liu Concubine said that she had "nothing to say".

After a while, I saw several eunuchs, holding trays, and presented the freshly cooked roasted mutton.

One of the eunuchs divided the fragrant lamb with a knife and placed it on the tray in front of the four of them.

Eating this roasted mutton, Liu Rong noticed that someone seemed to be staring at him.

As soon as I looked up, I saw that Gillian seemed to be looking at herself with a puzzled face. Looking at Gillian's expression, she may not know what Shicai's grandmother and cousin are doing.

After finishing the meal, the eunuch stepped forward to remove the tableware and put some seasonal fruits in front of the four people......

……………………………………………………………………

Looking at Chen Ajiao and Liu Concubine, Liu Rong got up suddenly, bowed to Liu Concubine, and said, "Auntie, the little nephew has one thing, I hope my aunt can agree."

"What?" Seeing what Liu Rong said mysteriously, Liu Rong asked.

"Aunt Hui, little nephew...... Does the little nephew want to make it clear to his aunt that he wants to marry Gillian as a wife, and the aunt can agree? ”。

Although this matter has been said several times before, even the Empress Dowager Dou has asked, and Liu Rong has always passively accepted it. Except for the bold words that plagiarized Liu Yu in order to win over Liu Yan at the beginning, "If you have Gillian as a wife, you should store it in a golden house", Liu Rong never seemed to take the initiative to say anything about it.

Hearing this, Liu Yan was even smiling.

Since Liu Rong became the crown prince, Liu Rong is looking forward to it day by day, and the matter between Liu Rong and Chen Ajiao can be settled as soon as possible and they can get married as soon as possible.

Concubine Liu also discussed this matter with Empress Bo more than once.

Now that Liu Rong finally said it himself, of course he was happy.

And the old lady Dou, who was sitting on the bed, was naturally happy when she heard Liu Rong's words.

Liu Rong said it himself, and this matter was a certainty.

However, when Chen Ajiao heard her cousin say to her mother that she wanted to take herself as a wife, her little face was flushed, and she shyly threw herself into Liu Yan's arms.

It's just that lying in Liu Rong's arms, she secretly turned her head and peeked at Liu Rong behind her.

When he first contacted Chen Ajiao, Liu Rong of course had a purpose, but wanted to take the opportunity to establish an alliance with Liu Juan.

has been together for a long time, but I also like this innocent girl.

And Liu Rong's age is really not small, he is already nineteen years old, and he will have a crown ceremony in another year.

The prince is so "big" at such an age, and he has not yet married, which makes the subjects of the world think.

Even ordinary people have to get married and become fathers when they reach the age of nineteen.

Even if you don't want to, you have been forced to divide wives and get married by local counties......

Of course, the prince has the responsibility to spread the branches and leaves for the heavenly family.

Even if you have no interest in beauty, if you don't go to Na Ji Concubine yourself, someone else will do these things on your behalf and send a woman to the palace.

Liu Rong himself has heard that the queen has made a statement to her father some time ago that she is going to draft a draft girl for the prince.

Regarding Gillian, Liu Rong also considered that Gillian in history seems to be infertile.

I don't know how Chen Ajiao is in this life.

Infertility is an incurable disease in modern times, and it is impossible to have any treatment in the Han family more than 2,000 years ago.

Liu Rong was a little resistant to getting married at first, but he still considered that Gillian was just a little Lori at this time, only fifteen years old.

It's not good for her to get married so early.

However, considering my father's body and other reasons, I still think that it is better to get married as soon as possible.

It's better to get yourself an insurance policy as soon as possible.

Isn't it just a Lori of the Han Dynasty to cultivate, it's not a big deal.

"Since the prince has said so, how can the aunt not agree? , I will go to His Majesty and the Empress again, set this time and put it on the agenda", at this time, Liu Yan's heart was extremely excited, but on the surface, she was still suppressing the excitement in her heart.

It's just that as soon as he speaks, he exposes his true thoughts in his heart.

Of course, Liu Rong knew that it was impossible for Liu Rong to refuse, but he still did enough to make the play, showing an extremely happy look, and said: "The little nephew thanked my aunt."

…………………………………………………………………

In this way, a few days later, Liu Rong received a summons, and his father wanted to personally preside over the next day's court meeting.

Since his father was sick, Liu Rong has frequently visited his father in the palace, but he has not seen too much improvement in his father's body, so why did he suddenly preside over the court meeting in person.

"Could it be that I have been presiding over the court for a while, and there is something wrong that makes my father unbearable?" , Liu Rong was thinking in his heart.

However, after a while, Liu Rong denied this idea in his heart, according to his father's character, it should not be like this.

What is the matter, let the father drag the sick body, but also personally preside over the court meeting.

"Could it be that the succession is not successful??"

After thinking about it for a long time, Liu Rong felt that there was indeed a great possibility to say.

But what is the matter here, but when you still have to discuss it, listen to what your father says.
