Chapter 488: A Reason to Convince the World
Hearing this, Hongling thought for a moment, "Lord Wang, some people are allergic because they are born, and some people are allergic because of special environmental changes. For example, some people are allergic to pollen, so they will get a rash when they smell pollen, and some people, because they originally lived in the south, suddenly went to the north, they will have a period of discomfort, but after a long time, take some medicine, and it will be better. ”
Hearing Hongling say this, King Hui shook his head with a wry smile, he only knew that Concubine Xi was allergic to peaches, but he didn't know which reason caused it.
Yes, if you think about it from another perspective, you have a son whose face is burned and the future is not bright, then you will naturally have to give up and cultivate another one.
Besides, I have grown up and become a family, and my mother loves her young son, and she is still jealous, which is really childish. Thinking of this, King Hui's heart was also slightly relieved.
The carriage was bumpy all the way, and when she returned to the mansion, Xun'er had already fallen asleep sweetly in Gu Yunxin's arms. looked at the child's innocent sleeping face, and hooked his lips slightly.
"The child is asleep? Come on, I'll hold it. Rui Wang said softly.
Gu Yunxin slowly put the child into King Rui's arms, and the little guy seemed to feel that the person holding him had changed, and he cried and protested directly.
Gu Yunxin had no choice but to take the child back again, which calmed Xiao Xun'er's dissatisfaction. Xun'er stopped crying and fell asleep again.
Back in the room, Gu Yunxin put the child on the small bed, this is a familiar environment for the child, and naturally he can sleep very sweetly.
"Lord Wang, Concubine Xi, did you start to be cold to King Hui for a while?" Gu Yunxin said lightly.
"Hmm...... It seems that it has been half a year since the sixth brother burned his face. In fact, the original Concubine Xi was just a nobleman, even if she gave birth to a sixth brother, she was not promoted, and later because the sixth brother was burned by the fire, her father appeased Concubine Xi, so she was promoted to Concubine Xi, and at the same time, she also named the sixth brother King Hui. King Rui said lightly.
After listening to King Rui's narration, Gu Yunxin fell into deep thought, if the previous Concubine Xi was a little transparent in the palace, then the current Concubine Xi is ambitious.
Concubine Xi was promoted to Concubine Xi after giving birth to fifteen princes, how could her father suddenly treat a person who had been cold for many years, and suddenly got better.
Moreover, the remnants of the Lin family who were burned to death in Beiyuan in the palace this time were also taken care of by Concubine Xi, so it was not easy to let these people die without being implicated.
"What are you thinking?" King Rui saw that Gu Yunxin was stunned, and couldn't help but ask softly.
"I'm thinking about Concubine Xi, according to what you just said, isn't the comparison between this Concubine Xi a little too big?" Gu Yunxin tilted his head and looked at Rui Wang Dao.
"There's something wrong, but after all, it's the sixth brother's mother, and it's not good for us to intervene or anything." Rui Wang said softly.
"So...... Does the prince want someone to check on Concubine Naxi? ”
"Concubine Zha Xi? She is the concubine of her father, I checked her, it seems that she is disrespectful to my father, and if the sixth brother knows, maybe he will be angry. King Rui said with an embarrassed expression.
"Okay, forget it then. We can't change anything anyway. Gu Yunxin shrugged and said.
Because they had to keep the New Year, Gu Yunxin and King Rui couldn't sleep, so they had to prepare hot tea and snacks to stay up until dawn, and then enter the palace to greet the emperor.
After that, everyone will have three days of rest. Anyway, the winter in Kyoto is also cold, and Gu Yunxin is very happy to stay at home.
The next day, after the third watch rang, King Rui asked Gu Yunxin to go to bed to rest, and he had to change into court clothes and go to the palace to say goodbye. When the carriage drove to the gate of the palace, he saw the carriage of King Hui and King Huai's mansion.
"Fifth brother, it's early." King Huai waved his hand happily.
"Morning, sixth brother, ninth brother." King Rui smiled lightly.
King Huai stretched out his hand in front of King Rui, blinked his eyes, and said with an innocent look: "Fifth brother, where is my New Year's money?" ”
"How old are you, why do you still have to press the New Year's money?" King Rui glanced at King Huai and said.
"People haven't started a family yet, they haven't started a family, they're still children, if you are an elder brother, you should give me New Year's money. Hurry up, don't be stingy. King Huai smiled and hooked his hand.
Seeing this, King Rui shook his head helplessly, and then smiled and took out a silver ingot from his sleeve and put it in King Huai's hand. "Then, this is the New Year's money given to you by the fifth brother, I hope you will grow up quickly."
"Okay, then borrow the fifth brother's auspicious words." King Huai smiled and stuffed the silver into his arms.
As soon as the words fell, the outer palace door opened, and several princes and courtiers walked into the inner palace gate together.
When he was about to walk to the Qianqiu Palace, the prince was sitting on the foot and was carried by several eunuchs. When he saw King Rui, King Hui and King Huai, he couldn't help but feel a little resentful in his heart.
King Ding has been given to death, and now the person who can have the strength to compete with him is King Rui, and King Rui has King Hui and King Huai to help.
He has always lost popularity, and most of the old ministers in the court now don't want to continue to support him, if it weren't for the fact that he is a descendant, I am afraid that he would have been pulled down from the position of prince by now.
"Yo, fifth brother, sixth brother, ninth brother, you guys are early." The prince didn't smile and laughed.
"I've seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." King Rui saluted in unison.
The crown prince is the prince of a country, as a prince, he is still a courtier, and when he sees the prince, he must salute and greet him. The crown prince enjoyed such an honor very much, and as long as he was still the prince, he would trample everyone under his feet.
The prince let people carry him all the way to the gate of the Qianqiu Palace, and then he stepped down and walked in. This move naturally made those imperial historians who adhered to the etiquette very dissatisfied.
The prince is the prince, and it is already a little inappropriate to walk outside the Qianqiu Hall by step, but now he doesn't even want to take a few steps, and he is directly carried to the door. Even the emperor has never done this, and the prince's behavior is simply playing with fire and self-immolation.
Everyone walked into the hall, waiting for the emperor's holy car to come, the prince stood in front, and glanced at King Rui and the others to the right, "King Rui, Princess Rui gave birth to a child not long ago, and the palace has not given any congratulatory gifts. ”
Like to take it away? This prince is really generous enough, but he is generous to others. The prince's actions soon attracted the dissatisfaction of the imperial history.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, although the things in the treasury of the East Palace are all owned by the prince, most of them are also gifts from the emperor, how can people pick and choose at will?" Master Zhang said in a deep voice.
"Master Zhang, you have said that the things in the treasury of the East Palace belong to the palace, and the palace wants to give it to people, do you still want to agree? Besides, the things that my father gave to this palace are the ones of this palace, and even the rivers and mountains of this Great Zhou Dynasty are all from this palace, so what is wrong with giving away one or two things. The prince said in disgust.
"Then wait until His Royal Highness the Crown Prince becomes the prince, now His Royal Highness the Crown Prince still has to do what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince should do, and other things that go beyond the norm, please think twice." Master Zhang bowed his hand.
"Think twice? Hmph, didn't you old horsemen all support King Ding? How? Now that King Ding has fallen, do you want King Rui to come and fight against this palace? Tell you, this palace is the main palace, it should be the prince, and the rest of the concubines are only worthy of being courtiers in the palace, and the palace will stay and kill if you want to. The prince snapped.
"It's really majestic, it seems that you have already regarded yourself as the emperor of the Great Zhou?" The emperor's gloomy voice sounded outside the door.
Hearing this, the prince hurriedly looked back, and when he saw the emperor's black face, he knew that he was already trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart at this time, if anyone said anything more now, the emperor's anger would all be vented on that person.
"Ministers see the emperor, long live my emperor, long live long live." The crowd knelt down and saluted.
The crown prince also hurriedly knelt on the ground, "The son sees his father, long live his father." ”
The emperor didn't pay attention to everyone, but walked to the dragon chair, and the moment he turned around and sat down, the eyes of the yin owl swept over everyone present.
"Let's all be flat." The emperor said in a deep voice.
The crown prince wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and just as he wanted to stand up, he was reprimanded by the emperor: "Whoever allowed you to get up, let me continue to kneel." ”
"Yes, Father." The crown prince didn't dare to say anything to defend himself, and now his best choice was to kneel obediently and not continue to anger the emperor in order to keep his position.
"Your Majesty, the old minister has something to say." Lord Liu stood in the central road.
"Say it." The emperor said lightly.
"Your Majesty, we all thought that King Rui was gone, so the emperor posthumously crowned the crown prince for King Rui, but now that King Rui has come back safely, there can't be two princes." Lord Liu said respectfully.
"What about Yi Aiqing? Should I revoke the posthumous title of King Rui, or let him be the prince? Or do you want to choose a new prince for the sake of the stability of the Great Zhou Dynasty? "The emperor has a good time.
This problem is already an old problem in the court, and many people think that since the prince has been established, then the posthumous title of King Rui should be revoked, after all, when the prince was established, King Rui had not had an accident.
But now this prince of the East Palace is really unsatisfactory, and his style of acting is not royal at all, if he is allowed to be the emperor, wouldn't he lose the face of Da Zhou?
"This is a major national event, the ministers dare not say anything, or the ministers still have to discuss, and the emperor will make the decision." Lord Liu wiped the sweat from his forehead.
If he supports the replacement of the prince, then the current prince will definitely not let him go, and he has not hugged a thigh, no one to shelter, even if he dies, no one will speak for him.
"I know that this is a big deal, so I have to listen to Aiqing's opinion." The emperor raised his eyebrows slightly.
The emperor has long been dissatisfied with the current prince, but the prince does not have too many immoral behaviors, and if he wants to abolish it, he really needs a more convincing reason for the world.
