Mu Yunyou asked, why did you come back. Na Sui said in a low voice: "I heard that Taishi Zuo scolded Pei Shangshu of the household department and General Han of the Songyang camp in the court today, and pulled Pei Shangshu to train under the palace wall for a long time, saying that he was full of sycophancy to the upper and stricter on the outside, and strict on the inside, what a rusty talent!" I was very angry. I just went home, saying that I had no intention of eating, and I won't be here today, so I hope the old man is not strange. ”

Princess Yinquan heard this and said curiously: "Xiucai? What do you mean by that? ”

The entourage shook his head and said: "It's not a Xiucai who reads, but the rust of rust, Taishi Zuo said, 'It's like an iron nail rusting in the tenon, it's obviously broken, and you want to replace it with a new one, but you can't pull it out after a long time', which is really derogatory to Pei Shangshu." ”

Mu Yunyou frowned, "Scolding again...... I don't know when this fiery temper will change. Pei Ran has been in charge of the household department for more than ten years, although he is a person who has a lot of money, but there is no big mistake in the end, how can he say that he will change it. Then he asked, "What does the Holy One say?" ”

"The villain also asked other ministers, saying that the saint is still the four-character mantra," the subordinate suddenly rubbed his chin and learned the appearance of Emperor Wen: "Aiqing is not in a hurry, Aiqing is not in a hurry." ”

Princess Silver Spring laughed when she heard this, and the slaves and maids around her also laughed quietly. The Emperor Wen in their mouths is obviously very good-tempered, and even a group of subordinates can make fun of them in private. Only Su Xiaochen pretended not to hear it, and only cared about eating the dishes on his plate.

But the saint is the saint after all, Mu Yunyou said with a straight face: "Presumptuous! Hugh is rude! But he couldn't help a smile at the corner of his mouth, and before he finished smiling, he sighed again: "I've only been away from the court for a few months, and his temper has grown......"

On the evergreen hall of Zhangren Palace, the candle shadow shook red, and Emperor Wen leaned on the soft couch and asked, "You entered the palace late at night just to say this?" ”

At this time, there was a young man with a Huaguan kneeling at the bottom of the stairs, and when he heard Emperor Wen casually ask, he was a little anxious, and hurriedly replied: "Father, today's court affairs are clear to the child, it is clear that Zuo Taishi is domineering and wants to be arbitrary, so he humiliates the minister in public, Pei Shangshu is a first-class member anyway, and General Han is also a hereditary lord, and now he scolds if he wants to, in the eyes of his Muyun clan, can there be a court, but there is a father?!" ”

The young man is not very old, but when he says it, he is like a wire, and he must be ready to fight.

Emperor Wen listened and motioned for the young man to step forward.

"My son, you have grown up and begun to distinguish between right and wrong, and my father is very happy. It's just that the Muyun clan is the world's wisest and the founding hero, loyal and good in the past generations. How can you comment on Taishi Zuo like this? Besides, his mother Li Taijun and my biological mother, Empress Dowager Zhuang Shunjing, are biological sisters, and you should also call him an uncle in terms of seniority, how can you be so ignorant of etiquette. Now that you have been crowned the crown prince and the future prince, you should be even more cautious in your words and deeds, and not be reckless and provoke criticism. Father, I would like to ask you, how did the Muyun clan lay down the country for my Li clan in the first place? ”

The crown prince fell to the ground again, and his face was sad: "Father, the son knows that the ancestor worshiped the Muyun clan as a military advisor back then, and he was indeed a god and a ghost, and he took a lot of cities. But no matter how powerful his Muyun clan is, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice, if there is no Li clan in Mizhou, who is in a party and has money, food and armor, how can he succeed? Moreover, since the founding of the dynasty, my Li family has treated him with kindness and favor for generations. On the contrary, it's them, especially Na Mu Yunzuo......"

As soon as the words came out, he looked up and saw Emperor Wen's reproachful eyes, and reluctantly changed his words: "Especially that Mu Yunzuo...... Uncle...... Commanding, there is no one in his eyes. Today, the emperor also saw his father, and it was because his father was too benevolent that he had his arrogance today! After speaking, he was still depressed and depressed.

Emperor Wen laughed instead of being angry when he heard this, and stretched out his hand to flick it on the prince's forehead: "You dare to say that in the end, it was my fault." You said that it was difficult for him to be a clever woman of the Muyun clan for cooking without rice, so I would like to ask you, the wealthy family who had money and grain was not only my Li family in Mizhou, but also the Cui family in Naqingzhou, the Liu family in Gaozhou, and the Yin family in Fengzhou, surrounded by strong enemies. If the situation is big, the Chang clan in Zhangzhou already accounts for one-third of the country, why does the Mu Yun clan come to vote for my Li clan as if he has nothing? ”

When the prince heard this, his face turned red, and he said for a while: "It's not that the child doesn't know, I'm just afraid that my father will be annoyed!" ”

Emperor Wen couldn't help but wonder: "Fang Kua, you dare to say, are you afraid when you want you to say it?" Anyway, there are some things that my father will say for you. Although my Li family is a wealthy family, there are many intermarriages in the near line, and many of the children of the ancient clan have the disease of intellectual deficiency and infirmity, and the first emperors of the past dynasties are also more lenient than wise. This matter is known to the whole world, but no one in the DPRK and China dares to mention it. Don't you just want to say that Mu Yun's family thinks that my Li family is not as good as his family's brain, and his body is weak, and it will be easy to control the situation in the future, it seems that the Li family's country is actually his Mu Yun family. Isn't it? ”

The prince bowed his head and was silent.

This is something that even the people on the street can understand, but the DPRK and China are thunder pools that no one dares to step forward. Everyone praised the previous emperors for being benevolent and ruling the world with benevolence and righteousness. But as a son of the Li family, he couldn't be clearer. What Renjun...... To put it mildly, it means that there is nothing but a good temper.

But look at the Mu Yun clan again, resourceful, don't say that the Li clan is far from reaching, and there is no one else in the world. Cangwu State can protect the peace of the country and the people, block the tiger eye of the Imulan country, and hand over the blue sea country to mutual assistance, which is also the credit of the Mu Yun clan, and he is not unaware. But the moon is dark and the stars are bright, the monarch is weak and the ministers are fierce, every time he thinks of this, the crown prince Li Chongyan feels that as a descendant of the Li family, he really can't swallow this breath.

Emperor Wen said slowly: "Since ancient times, those who are good at strategizing have won, and those who have planned far have prospered. Of course, the Mu Yun clan looks at my Li family's short-term wisdom, but it also looks at our clan's gentle temperament, and he can repay the favor for a long time in the future. Besides, those who can work hard, he has done his best to protect my country, and he has a lot to worry about, but I am happy and relaxed. He loses his temper once in a while, but what is it. You are a child, don't always come to make trouble, it hurts the harmony of adults. ”

The prince was still unwilling, "but ......" and swallowed the words to his lips.

Emperor Wen approached the prince's immature face and asked, "Let's put it this way, what do you think of the comparison between my father and the emperors?" The prince said: "It's not the child's sycophancy, the child feels that the father not only has no mental deficiency, but also has a far-sighted plan, far better than the previous emperors, but the father in the court always does not call the shots, and lets Namu Yunzuo...... Uncle is on the rampage. The child was puzzled. ”

Emperor Wen showed a hint of a smile: "You know that I am not confused, there are some things that cannot be taken lightly." It's late at night, so let's go and rest. I'm going to go to Bihai in a few days, so prepare well, this is your business! Remember, what I want is to continue from generation to generation, not just for a lifetime! ”

The prince replied in a low voice: "Yes!" ”

It was late at night when Su Xiaochen left the Taishi Mansion, and he was about to ride back to Yanbo Street, and Uncle Kang was waiting there with a car.

"The lord said that the son must have drunk wine and was not allowed to ride a horse."

Su Xiaochen looked at Uncle Kang's firm face and obediently got into the car. He clutched his chest tightly, his mind in his arms. After getting into the car and sitting down, Su Xiaochen uncovered his clothes and took out a brocade bookbox. There are three volumes of books in the box, and two words are printed on the official book: "Yun Ce".

This is what Uncle You handed over to himself after he transferred to the study after dinner. recalled that when he took the book box, he had never seen Uncle You's expression like this, and he wanted to ask but didn't know how to ask.

"Chen'er, this is a script written down based on what I have learned all my life, with your qualifications, and with time, it will be able to be integrated, you must be careful to keep it, and don't pass it on easily."

"Uncle You, how can a child receive such a precious thing? After the child borrowed it for a while, he returned it to his uncle when he returned from the blue sea country. If you don't understand something, you still have to teach me from my uncle. ”

Mu Yunyou smiled and shook his head, signaling that he didn't need to say more.

"Chen'er, although the uncle is above 10,000 people under one person, he can do everything as he wants, but he regrets the lack of heirs, and so far he has no children. In recent years, my health has become worse and worse, and the only person who can bear the mantle is dust. You have a pure temperament and a lot of talent. Men should take the world as their own responsibility, and Uncle will pass on "Yun Ce" to you, hoping that you can make contributions to the Cangwu country in the future and create the common people, not just for your own selfishness. ”

Su Xiaochen suddenly felt that the air was extremely solemn, and asked tentatively, "Uncle, but what is going to happen?" ”

Mu Yunyou didn't answer, slowly paced to the window, and said faintly: "Chen'er, do you remember when your uncle taught you how to behave in the world?" ”

Su Xiaochen replied, "I remember." Uncle taught that a husband should distinguish between right and wrong, good and evil, so that he can stand in the world with righteousness. ”

"At that time, you were still young, and these guidelines should be kept in mind. It's just that now that you are older, you should see some things, and they are not black and white, and Uncle hopes that when you look at the world again in the future, you will forget what Uncle said, and don't just judge right and wrong. ”

"Forgot what Uncle said?" Su Xiaochen was a little ignorant.

Mu Yunyou continued: "There is no right or wrong in everything. When people have obsessions, they have right and wrong. Right and wrong seem incompatible, but they are actually interdependent. For example, what is right for you may be wrong for others, so don't be biased. ”

Su Xiaochen asked, "What should I say?" ”

Mu Yunyou smiled a little self-deprecatingly: "There was a person who said that I was good at planning and not being good at decisive, but in fact, it was not that I was not good at deciding, but that I was unwilling. If there is no right or wrong, why should we judge? I only act according to my own heart, there is no obstacle in my heart, heaven and earth are harmonious, and naturally I don't have to worry about right and wrong. ”

Su Xiaochen seemed to understand a little, and when he heard this, he felt very Zen, and let out a sigh of relief. I was wondering what kind of person could evaluate Uncle You so condescendingly.

Mu Yunyou turned around and smiled: "Okay, you can't understand it at your age if you say too much, just remember what Uncle said is that it will come from the time of comprehension." In addition, Uncle has one more thing to entrust you. This time, you accompanied the prince on a trip, a long journey, very hard, and when you arrived in the blue sea country, you also had to help your uncle take care of your aunt. ”

Su Xiaochen said curiously: "Isn't the Bihai Kingdom the mother country of Her Royal Highness the Princess?" Returning to his hometown, how can there be a reason for a child to take care of Her Royal Highness the Princess? ”

Mu Yunyou said lightly: "Chen'er is right, Uncle is a little worried. Uncle is thinking, although the princess is a native of Bihai Country, in the end she has been away for twenty-four years, and things are not people. You are a child who can be trusted in Suri. If there is anything that needs to be taken care of, you must protect her for your uncle. She's also a poor person......" When it came to the last sentence, it was silent.

Su Xiaochen didn't understand why there was so much solemnity and entrustment today. Maybe he will suddenly realize it in a few years, but at this moment, he still has no clue, so he has no choice but to nod seriously and take "Yun Ce" into his arms.
