On the second day, Xiao Jian got up early in the morning and rushed to the Changqiu Palace to meet the queen.

Huai Wu greeted him outside the palace gate as early as possible: "Your Highness, the queen has already gotten up." The queen said that Her Royal Highness must have come early, and let the slaves and maids wait for Her Highness outside the palace gate. It's really a mother-son connection, and His Royal Highness really came over early in the morning. ”

Xiao Jian smiled: "Is the queen mother okay?" ”

Huai Wu followed Jian and said as she walked: "The queen mother is very good. It's just that after the confession ceremony yesterday, it seems that there was a lot of cold wine, and I didn't go out later. ”

Jane didn't speak.

After entering the palace and saluting, the queen said to the people, "Go out." We said that no one should come near us. ”

After everyone left, Xiao Jian personally changed the tea cup for Queen Luo and arranged the snacks.

Queen Luo took Xiao Jian's hand and said, "My son, I made a mistake yesterday at Yun Jiao'e's recognition ceremony. My heart is too anxious, at the recognition ceremony, everyone said good things about Zhi'er, which caused your father to be suspicious, and your father made two decisions on the spot, one is to order you to go to Fushui County to be the king of the county after the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the second is to give Fu Wan to Hua Yun in marriage. My heart is very troubled, and yesterday I did not dare to bring you to consult at once, and I did not sleep all night. ”

Xiao Jian said: "The queen mother doesn't have to worry. I already know both of these things. Last night, Lord Hua Chong hosted a banquet for his son in the mansion, as well as Rong Yong, the son of Lord Rongzhu, Zhao Yun, the son of Lord Zhao Hong, and Fu Xuan, but Fu Ying was dressed as a man at the time, under the pseudonym Dou Funing. At the banquet, Lord Hua Chong told his son about these two things. After the son returned to the Fushui Academy, he saw the attendant sent by the queen mother, knew the queen's will, and guessed the queen's worries, so he came over early this morning. The son knew that the queen mother must not have been able to sleep peacefully yesterday. ”

Queen Yu said: "It's hard for my son." You really know your mother's heart. If your brother has your Lingxiu, I don't need to be in such a hurry. Yesterday, I did make a mistake. I underestimated your father's mind too much, and I shouldn't easily support Empress Xuanren and Hua Chong. Although they spoke to us yesterday, Your Majesty's intentions have been expressed, and it is obvious that Your Majesty will not make your brother the crown prince. There's no guarantee that they won't turn against each other. You're so tired that you have to go to the county in advance, so far away from the holy capital, how can my mother take care of you? "When Queen Yu said about the matter of the rank earlier, although there was chagrin in her eyes, she was more calm and rational. Later, when he said that he went to Fushui County Briefly, his eyes were full of love, and after he finished speaking, tears had already rolled down.

Xiao Jian squatted down in front of Queen Luo, looked up at Queen Luo, and said: "Don't worry about the queen mother, the son is already fifteen years old, and he can already go out to open up the territory for the queen mother and brother rank, and the queen mother doesn't have to worry about her son." The son is worried that after the son leaves, there will be no one around the queen mother to take care of him. My son was really worried. Brother Zhi is now living in the palace, and there is no queen mother's own people in the palace, and the queen mother has something to do, and there is no one to talk to. ”

The queen was even more emotional, her nose was fanning, her hands were clasped around Xiao Jian, she hugged her arms, and said, "My son." You're right on my mind. When you get to Fushui, I don't even have a person to talk to. Your uncle, all he thinks about is power, the Yu family, where is like you, thinking about his mother and your brother who is not angry. ”

Xiao Jian said: "Queen Mother, it is not too far from the gathering of the Fushui County and the Holy Capital, and there is only one Ganzi County in the middle. The son will often come back to see the queen mother and the elder brother. ”

The queen said: "It's hard for your filial piety, my son." But what I'm telling you today is that you must not come back to the Holy Capital often. Don't delay your big event in order to take care of your mother. ”

Xiao Jian said: "Queen Mother, why do you say that? ”

Queen Yu said: "Your father is very suspicious, and the most taboo is for his subordinates to form a party. Let me tell you a word, you have to keep in mind that the reason why your father was able to get the throne was by forming a party in private, so this is what he is most taboo about, and this is what he is best at. All the ways and means of forming a party cannot escape the eyes of your father. Son, the core essence of your father's new policy is to balance and divide power, the county king and the county guard and co-rule is a balanced division of power, your brother and the county kings are located in the holy capital and the county country respectively, and it is also a balanced division of power, and the temporary absence of a prince is more for the sake of balance and division of power. It is also because of these that your father suddenly ordered you to go to the county of Fushui in advance, I guess you met the sons of the county guards in various places for your brother in the holy capital, and someone should have informed your father and caused his suspicion. And my intention to win over the Hua clan is too obvious, and it is estimated that your father has also seen through it, so I made a temporary decision and gave Fu Yi to Hua Yun for marriage. Your father is worried that you will help your brother, and he is also worried that Fahrenheit will form an alliance with us, so he uses the Dou clan to balance us. ”

Xiao Jian said: "The queen mother doesn't have to worry, the future will be long." It's not a bad thing that we get frustrated in the first blow. At least we know what our father is afraid of. Moreover, the most advantageous thing is that these wills of my father and the emperor on the impromptu basis yesterday will definitely be known to the whole world in the next two days. In this way, everyone will think that Brother Rank's establishment is hopeless, and his father has something else in his heart. First of all, those courtiers must have turned the wind around and went to other princes; Secondly, other princes will definitely be moved by the wind and eager to try. If the son's guess is right, at the Mid-Autumn Festival, the princes will stage a good show of competing for favor. The queen mother, originally, Brother Rank is at the forefront, the most taboo, and the most concerned, the father and the emperor are staring every day, the ministers are staring at it every day, and the prince is also staring at it every day, no matter how perfect the person is, he will find out the flaws, and the other princes are in the dark, and the rank brother himself is in the light, and there are many enemies, and our situation is extremely passive. Now it's better, everyone no longer pays attention to Brother Rank, the other princes have all rushed to the front, Brother Rank is hiding in the shadows, and the other princes have broken into the light, and our situation has changed greatly. The other princes are all county kings who are divided into county countries, even if they do well, there are always people who are better than them, and their minds are more sophisticated, they seem to occupy a country and have their own support, but in fact, they are all in a completely consistent situation, and there can be no big difference in status, mind, and merit. Only Brother Rank, who is above the top and different. Queen Mother, as long as we operate properly, balance and contain the princes, and hold the purpose set before, Brother Rank will win. ”

As if she didn't know Xiao Jian anymore, Queen Yu stared at him for a long time, and said, "My son, it's really embarrassing for my son." Such a deep insight, for the mother to stay awake all night without knowing it. It's hard for you to have such insight at such a young age. What you have said today is more thorough than what you said to me a few days ago. And the purpose is consistent. Son, my good son. The queen took Jian Jian into her arms.

Xiao Jian said warmly: "The queen mother must not work too hard. Brother Zhi is a person with great blessings, and the queen mother must not be in a hurry. ”

Empress Yu gently stroked Xiao Jian's hair and said, "Son, if you want to talk about great good fortune, my mother believes that among all the sons of your father and emperor, you are the most blessed person." When you were born, colorful auspicious clouds appeared in the sky, and you didn't go for a long time. Everyone in the Holy Capital has seen it. When you are born, the one you give birth to is called a good one. The first emperor came to see you, and when he saw it, he was very surprised, and said, 'This kid from the Tuyou family is amazing, he is a noble appearance'. Since you were a child, you have been different from other children, you don't like those things that children play, and then, no matter how naughty the child is, he is as obedient as a tamed kitten in front of you, and your brothers all respect you and love you, even the most wild and doesn't listen to anyone's words, but he also listens to you alone. Aren't you born, you say? That's why I say, you are the most blessed person. It's just that your biological mother has a bad life, she went early, and she can't see you grow up. ”

Xiao Jian said: "Thanks to the care and love of the queen mother, the son can grow up. The queen mother is the son's mother. ”

Queen Yu hugged Xiao Jian tightly and said, "Son, your filial piety, my mother knows." Today, my mother didn't tell you this. We don't need to talk about this. It's all my fault, I suddenly remembered your mother who went early, so I provoked such a talk, which made my son sad. My mother wants to tell you something else today. ”
