"Father, are you okay?" With tears in his eyes, King Xiang walked to the emperor's knees and said.

"Okay, okay, I'm fine, look at what you look like, this little thing, just crying." The emperor glanced at his son and said.

Immediately, the emperor looked at King Rui again, "Yi'er, this time, they even counted you, aren't you afraid of losing the person you love the most?" ”

"Father, the son will definitely do his best to protect Yunxin."

"You...... You stinky boy, you know that my throne is intended to be passed on to you, but you are hiding from the plague, you know, your other brothers, except for the sixth and ninth, they all want this position. "The emperor hates that iron does not make steel.

"Father, if you agree, I will only marry Yunxin in my life, and I will no longer accept concubines, and I will consider this throne." King Rui was noncommittal.

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Qing couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, why did His Royal Highness Rui Wang talk to the emperor like this? The emperor is interested in the throne of King Rui, he should be grateful to Dade, why does it seem that the emperor is begging him to accept the throne now?

This throne is not those shops in the city, it is the supreme position that holds the power of life and death, and how many people can't ask for it.

"There are many royal heirs, you only have one princess, when will this heir prosper? What's more, you have been married for so many years, if Princess Rui has nothing to do, do you still want to ruin my country? The emperor's words were faintly angry.

His best son doesn't look like he's an obsessed woman, does he? Why was he eaten to death by this Rui princess?

"Father, it's not that Yun Xin can't give birth, it's just that we are still young, thinking that in a few more years, the world of two people, and having a child, her mind is not on me." King Rui pouted.

Hearing this, the emperor couldn't help but nod slightly, this sentence, he has a deep understanding, thinking that at the beginning, when Emperor Mu Guifei just gave birth to King Rui, according to the rules, this prince is to be handed over to the nurse and grandmother to take care of, but Emperor Mu Guifei is reluctant to say anything, she must take care of the child herself, as a result, since then, the emperor has changed from the first to the second in the heart of Emperor Mu, and this first is his son, and he can't be jealous.

Who let it be a child born to his beloved woman, no matter how unhappy he is, he has to suffer it himself?

"Well, you are young, this child is not in a hurry, but the Queen Mother really wants to see her great-grandson, so you still have to work hard." The Emperor sneered.

The emperor can understand very much how rare the emotions of a couple of people in a lifetime are, if he is not the emperor, he would rather accompany Emperor Mu and Concubine Mu alone in this life, but he can't, for the world of the Great Zhou, for the foundation of the ancestors, he can't have a love for children.

"Okay, you go to see the Queen Mother, stay in the palace at night and don't go back, I will go to the Queen Mother's palace for dinner, and you will accompany you." The Emperor waved his hand.

"Father, then I will ...... with my mother," King Xiang scratched his head and said.

"Of course we are going together, and the queen also has to hurry up and take care of the affairs in the palace, it's smoky." After speaking, the emperor walked away......

As for the concubine and the king, when all their people were taken down, they were already put in prison.

In the evening, in the palace of the Queen Mother, King Rui and Gu Yunxin, as well as the emperor and the queen and a few more favored concubines, plus a few princes, a table of dishes, the queen mother and the emperor ate very happily.

"The mourning family hasn't had a happy dinner for a long time, and the mourning family is bored alone on weekdays

Eat stuffy. The Queen Mother complained.

"The queen mother, it's all sons, and sons will often come to dine with you in the future." The emperor said softly.

"You are the emperor, you are busy with government affairs, the mourning family can understand, in the future, let these children taste it and accompany me." The Queen Mother said lightly.

"Yes." King Rui and the others stood up and saluted respectfully.

King Rui and his wife have to stay in the palace at night, and the other princes have already left the palace to build a mansion, if they want to stay in the palace, King Xiang and King Hui are okay, they can live in their biological mother's bedroom.

However, King Huai had no biological mother early in the morning, and when he was about to leave the palace, King Rui called out to him, "Ninth brother, you are more exposed, and you have drunk so much wine, so stay in my palace tonight." ”

"Okay." King Huai smiled lightly.

There is nothing inappropriate for King Huai to live in King Rui's palace, everyone knows that they have a deep brotherhood, not to mention, King Rui's friend Yun Zheng and a group of guards and entourage also live in King Rui's palace.

"It's been a long time since I've drunk my fifth sister-in-law's wine, and I'm going to the house tomorrow to ask for it." King Huai said with a smile.

"Okay, I have a new flavor of wine, tomorrow I will take it out for you to taste first." Gu Yunxin said with a light smile.

"Fifth brother, fifth sister-in-law......" King Huai suddenly covered with a layer of mist.

"What's wrong with you?" King Rui wondered.

"You've been out for so long, and I've heard that you're in danger, and I'm really worried." After saying that, King Huai threw himself into King Rui's arms and cried.

Although King Huai said that he had already opened his own government and built a mansion, after all, he was still a child, he had been by King Rui's side since he was a child, and no one would care about him except for his fifth brother.

"Don't worry, aren't we all right? By the way, the news I sent to you has already been clarified? King Rui patted King Huai's shoulder and said.

"Well, I checked, there have been a lot of people in Kyoto recently, in addition to the princes and princesses of the Wuhuan clan who are about to enter Kyoto, and the people from Beiliang."

"People from Beiliang? Are you here to see the two princesses? King Rui wondered.

"They didn't go to contact the two princesses of Beiliang, but pretended to be merchants and lived in an inn in the city." King Huai said lightly.

"Oh? Pretending to be a businessman? If there is no special purpose, why hide your identity? King Rui sneered.

"Master, you say...... What we encountered in the town, is it related to the people of Beiliang? Gu Yunxin frowned slightly.

"How could the lady think that?"

"I don't have any evidence, it's just a gut feeling, remember the goddess who treated you? Before we left, I heard from the townspeople that they had all died in the woods by the river, and that they had been stabbed through the throat. ”

"Well, I've heard about it too, and I think they should be used by some organization in the rivers and lakes to collect money." King Rui's eyes narrowed slightly.

Hearing this, King Huai frowned slightly, how could this still have something to do with the gangs in the rivers and lakes.

"Fifth brother, didn't you once pay someone from the Netherworld Pavilion to protect the fifth sister-in-law? Shall we pay them to help us find out? King Huai said with a pair of eyes in the blink.

"Well, I've already asked Ling Xiao and them to handle this matter." Rui Wang said lightly.

It was night, Gu Yunxin and King Rui were resting well in the palace, after all, there was no danger in this palace.

And in the prison, Rugui Concubine and King Ding were locked up separately, "Mother, mother, I don't want to die, I don't want to die."

Yes. King Ding cried. Where is the old style?

"Good boy, don't worry, your uncle is still in the court, he still has some influence in the court, you will put all the blame on the mother concubine, saying that you don't know what's going on, as long as you're okay, our mother and son will meet again one day." Rugui Concubine said in a deep voice.

"This ...... How can this work, mother, without you to compete with the queen, I still have to be bullied to death by them? ”

"Don't worry, the most the concubine will be deposed and demoted, and the worst result will be to enter the cold palace, as long as you are still there, the concubine will be fine."

For example, the concubine has been married to the emperor for many years, so she naturally knows the emperor's temperament very well, and now many things in the court still need her brother Lin Chengxiang to do, and their Lin family now has a little general with military achievements.

"Mother, will my uncle take care of us?"

"Of course it will, don't forget, your concubine is your uncle's biological daughter, even if it's not our mother and son, it's his own daughter." Ru Guifei said with a smile on the corner of her mouth.

When he got up the next morning, as soon as the emperor got up, he heard Zhang Qing say outside the door: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Lin is waiting outside, do you want to see you now?" ”

"Lin Xiang is here? Hmph, it's really fast enough, Zhang Qing, you say...... How much does Lin Xiang know about yesterday's incident? The Emperor said as he ate the snacks on the table.

"This minion doesn't know, or else the minion will tell Lin Xiang and wait for the dispersal of the dynasty before announcing it?"

"That's it, there are still some hours to go to court, so let him in." The emperor sat at the table and said lightly.

Lin Xiang stepped in and saluted respectfully to the emperor on the throne, "The old minister knocks on the emperor, long live the emperor, long live the emperor." ”

The emperor pretended not to hear it, and continued to drink the tea on the table, "Zhang Qing, there is something wrong with this tea today, I drink Biluo spring tea on weekdays, and you have served me for so many years, and you even sent melon slices." ”

"The emperor forgives the sin, and the old slave will go and change it." Zhang Qing hurriedly knelt down and pleaded guilty.

Where is this wrong tea, it is simply that the emperor is testing Lin Xiang by means of things such as concubines and kings.

"Yo, Lin Xiang, you came to see me so early, but what's the matter?" The emperor took a good time.

"Your Majesty, the minister heard about the matter of Ruguifei, presumably Ruguifei was confused for a while, Ruguifei has been with the emperor for so many years, and has never done anything out of order, and His Royal Highness Dingwang, he has always been benevolent and filial, and he will not do that big rebellious thing, he must have been bewitched." Lin Xiang knelt on the ground and said.

"Huh, being bewitched? He is a dignified prince, the king of my relatives, and he was so easily bewitched, do you mean that I don't know anyone? The Emperor said angrily.

"The emperor forgives the sins, the emperor forgives the sins, the old minister doesn't mean this, the old minister doesn't mean this."

"That's not what you mean? What does that mean? The emperor said angrily.

"Your Majesty, the old minister ......"

"Hmph." The Emperor threw his sleeves away angrily......

Above the court, the courtiers were divided into two factions because of the matter of Ruguifei and Dingwang, one faction advocated that Ruguifei's mother and son be demoted to concubines and dealt with in accordance with national law, and the other faction advocated grounding observation, I have to admit that Lin Xiang still has a certain influence in the court, otherwise how could anyone have interceded for Ruguifei and her son after doing such a rebellious thing?

At this time, the people sent out by King Rui had also checked some news and came back......
