As the emperor, Emperor Chen summoned him to the palace, not to discuss national affairs, but to ask him why he didn't have children, and in front of the public, didn't he want to lose face?

But fortunately, Tang Ning was not the most faceless one, he noticed that after Emperor Chen said this, Lu Ding lowered his head, and his face had turned the color of pig liver.

"It turns out that Lu Shangshu's daughter has already been secretly married......"

"No wonder the Xiao family is in such a hurry to get married, no matter how late it is, they can't hide it."

"It is said that the auspicious day of the good day was originally three months later, and the officials of Qin Tianjian were changed by Lu Shangshu with a knife on his neck......"

"No wonder, I'll just say, how can there be such a coincidence......"

……

If he was someone else, he didn't give Lu Ding or face to the Lu family, he would have been cut down with a knife a long time ago, but the person who leaked the news was the emperor, so he could only knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.

Emperor Chen asked Tang Ning to rest at home, and Tang Ning agreed.

If you can hide for a while, you can't hide for a lifetime, and there are some things that are better to be clear.

When he walked out of the imperial study, he looked at the person in front of him and said, "Lord Qian, stay." ”

Qian Shuo, the head of the household, looked at him and wondered, "What's the matter with Lord Tang?" ”

Tang Ning smiled: "There is a small matter, I want to ask Lord Qian for a small favor." ”

Qian Shuo smiled and said, "Lord Tang, but it doesn't hurt to say it......"

……

Tang House.

Chen Yuxian sighed leisurely and said, "Is Ning'er avoiding us these days, he just came back from the grassland, he doesn't rest at all, he goes to the official office every morning and returns late every day......"

"How could it be......" Zhong Yi took her hand and said: "Xianggong wears many hats, and he is busy with official business, it may be that there are more things in the yamen, and it will be fine in a few days." ”

Chen Yuxian sighed lightly and said, "No matter how busy the official affairs in the yamen are, they can't rely on him alone. ”

When she looked at Zhong Yi again, she asked, "What the hell is going on with you, I don't tell you every time I ask, you look at Miss Lu......"

Zhong Yi lowered his head, his expression was also a little lost, and said, "Xianggong has his own plans......

Chen Yuxian lamented: "He doesn't say anything about his plans......"

Tang Ning walked in from outside the door, put a booklet on the table, and said, "Mother-in-law, let's take a look at this first." ”

Chen Yuxian opened the booklet he put on the table in surprise, his face gradually turned pale, and muttered, "Is this true?" ”

"This is the data I found from the household department." Tang Ning looked at her and said: "There are tens of thousands of women who die in childbirth every year in Chen Guo, and the earlier the childbearing age, the greater the danger, Lu Ya has reached the age suitable for childbearing, but Xiaoru Xiaoyi has not yet arrived, and the mother-in-law doesn't want them to be in danger, right?" ”

Chen Yuxian held the booklet in his hand, pursed his lips, and didn't say anything more.

A moment later, in a certain room, Zhong Mingli looked at her and said, "Have you forgotten how dangerous it was when you were young, the mother who died also went like this, and Ning'er also thought about them." ”

"He should have said it earlier." Chen Yuxian put down the booklet with palpitations and said, "I've been waiting for a year or two, and it's okay to wait for another one." ”

Tang Ning sat alone in the study, looking out the window.

Xiaoru and Xiaoyi's age is not enough, which is not the only reason why he doesn't want children for the time being.

It is also important to avoid worrying about what will happen in the next year, starting today.

If they become pregnant within this year, their family will be subject to many restrictions.

After returning from the northwest, Tang Ning's military rank has reached its peak, and the civilian position is also close to the peak, the lord cannot be higher, and more importantly, he has a lot of resources in his hands, and he can do what he has always wanted to do, but has not done.

For example, with some people, some old accounts.

Zhong Mingli walked in from outside the door and said softly: "Your mother-in-law's words, you can just listen to them, you have your plans, women, you don't know anything, Xiaoru and Xiaoyi's bodies matter." ”

Tang Ning smiled and said, "Actually, we don't want children for the time being, not just for this reason. ”

Zhong Mingli was surprised: "Then what else?" ”

Tang Ning said: "I'm going to move the Tang family." ”

When Zhong Mingli heard this, he was suddenly shocked in his heart.

The grievances between Tang Ning and the Tang family, he has long known that their family, from the time they first arrived in Beijing, was controlled everywhere, was embarrassed by the Tang family, and came to this day step by step, dragging down the Tang family, how difficult the road is and how difficult the process is, only they know in their hearts.

Now that he is in a high position, it is time to collect debts from the Tang family.

It's just that the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and no matter how much the Tang family declines, it is also the maiden family of Concubine Tang Hui, the mother family of King Duan, and the relatives of the emperor, if you want to move the Tang family, you have to go through King Duan, Concubine Hui, and through Your Majesty's ......, how easy is this?

He didn't persuade Tang Ning, and after thinking about it, he asked, "Do you need me to do anything?" ”

Tang Ning smiled and said, "No, I already have arrangements." ”

Zhong Mingli didn't say anything more, walked out of the study, and went straight to the Jingzhao Mansion.

"Your Excellency." When the catchers in the palace saw him, they saluted one after another.

Zhong Mingli looked at one person and said, "Go and call Peng Chen." ”

Not long after, Peng Chen, who had been promoted to the head of the Jingzhao Mansion, walked in quickly and said, "What do you command?" ”

Zhong Mingli looked at him and said, "Go and transfer all the case files related to the Jingshi Tang family and send them to me......"

……

Palace.

The Imperial Study.

Emperor Chen's rare free time, pacing in the Imperial Garden, seemed to open his mouth unintentionally: "You say, why didn't he give birth to a child?" ”

Wei Jian slowly followed behind him, and said embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, this matter of whether or not to have a child, Lord Tang himself can't completely decide......

Chen Huang glanced at him and said, "Just because you can't call the shots doesn't mean that others can't call the shots." ”

Wei Jian smiled wryly and changed the subject: "Why did Your Majesty suddenly care about whether Tang Daren would have children or not?" ”

Emperor Chen slowly stopped and said, "I can see that his heart is very big, and only when he has concern in his heart, will he stay in Beijing honestly, and can he be completely used by me." ”

Wei Jian smiled and said, "Lord Tang is now a general and a marquis of Dingguo, his foundation, everything about him is in the Jingshi, how can he leave here......"

"It's just my feelings." Emperor Chen looked at one place and said, "What I'm worried about is another thing. ”

Wei Jian raised his head and said, "What is Your Majesty worried about?" ”

Emperor Chen looked at him and asked: "If you have been bullied and suppressed everywhere along the way, and you have worried about your life many times, what will happen if you soar to the sky one day?" ”

Wei Jian thought for a while and said, "If it is an old slave, the old slave must pay for the blood debt of the person who bullied me back then......

"Yes...... there is revenge and no revenge, and there is no accountability, and it will be difficult to settle after all." Emperor Chen sighed lightly and said, "I don't know what he will do to the Tang family next, I don't want to see chaos in the court......"

Wei Jian was stunned and said: "It turns out that Your Majesty is saying that Lord Tang, the Tang family has declined to this point and has been punished as it deserves, besides, Lord Tang is broad-minded and open-minded, and should ......."

The more Wei Jian spoke, the quieter his voice became, and finally he didn't squeak a word.

Emperor Chen glanced at him and asked, "Why, don't you even believe in yourself?" ”
