In fact, it's not just Rong Xuan who can't sleep in Beijing.

The officials and people in the capital heard the news that the emperor had announced the identity of the prince of Tang Ning, and although they were shocked, they were not shocked and couldn't sleep.

Only the eldest prince and the second prince can't sleep, and the emperor will tell the world the identity of the prince of Tangning, it doesn't matter to them, after all, this is a matter of time or time.

However, the emperor personally told the elders that Tang Ning would not go to the steppe to inherit the throne of the Khan, on the grounds that the tribal leaders of the steppe supported Tang Ning as the Khan King only on a temporary basis, and did not really want to support him as the Khan King.

This is the real reason why the eldest prince and the second prince can't sleep, Tang Ning will not go to the steppe to inherit the throne of the Khan, which means that Tang Ning will stay in the Great Zhou to compete for the crown.

The eldest prince felt that his last hope was shattered again, and he sat alone in front of the main hall blowing a cold wind, and the moonlight was quiet, looking very lonely and desolate.

The eldest princess came with the maid with her cloak in her arms, signaled the maid to stay in the distance and wait, and walked over by herself.

The eldest princess unfolded her cloak and gently draped it on the eldest prince's body, and said softly: "Your Highness, the spring night is cold, Your Highness should also take care of your body!" ”

The eldest prince was unaware of the cloak on his body, and raised the flask in his hand and poured a sip of wine.

The eldest princess sat down next to him, and said with some distress: "Didn't Your Highness say it before?" When Tang Ning returned to Beijing in triumph, his father would announce his identity as a prince to the world. ”

"Isn't this all expected by His Highness? Why is Your Highness so bothered? ”

The eldest prince did say this, and at that time, the good news of the Battle of Shuozhou reached the capital, and Tang Ning made great contributions in Shuozhou.

At that time, the eldest prince said that when Tang Ning returned to Beijing in triumph, the emperor would announce the identity of Tang Ning's prince to the world.

At that time, because he had no expectations in his heart, he said it calmly. But now it is different, and the feeling of going from full of hope to being shattered is difficult for non-experienced people to understand.

The eldest prince sighed: "Since the news spread that Tang Ning was going to become the king of the steppe khan, I have been full of joy, who would have thought that it would be another dream!" ”

"My father has already told the scholars that Tang Ning will not go to the steppe to inherit the throne of the Khan."

The eldest princess hesitated: "After all, Tang Ning has the blood of the Golden Family, does my father still want Tang Ning to be the prince?" ”

The eldest prince glanced sideways at the eldest princess and said, "Do you think that the father didn't know that Tang Ning had the bloodline of the Golden Family before?" ”

The eldest princess hesitated: "Then, what about the ministers? ”

The eldest prince said in a deep voice: "My Great Zhou established the country with martial arts, martial arts is the foundation of our dynasty, and the foundation of Tangning is in the army!" The Rong family, the father, the army, it's difficult! ”

It's not just difficult, there's only a glimmer of hope. The eldest prince tilted his head and poured another sip of wine.

Seeing the eldest prince's painful appearance, the eldest princess couldn't help but hug him and muttered: "Your Highness, let's not fight, let's not fight, let's just be an idle prince, okay?" ”

The eldest prince turned his head to look at the eldest princess and said, "Don't you want to be a mother in the world?" ”

The eldest princess said: "The concubine wants His Royal Highness to be safe and stable, wants His Royal Highness to be happy, and can cherish her body." ”

"Didn't Your Highness want to open it before and put it down? Doesn't it mean that Tang Ning is a generous character, can we live an idle and rich life? ”

The eldest prince seemed to have reacquainted himself with the eldest princess, looked at her quietly for a while, and then hugged her in his arms.

The night steps were as cold as water, but the eldest prince and the eldest princess hugged each other, but they felt very warm in their hearts, and their hearts were so close for the first time.

The emperor issued an order to announce the identity of Tangning's prince to the world, and the news continued to ferment in the capital, and Tangning turned down all banquets and hid at home.

Rong Xuan was busy taking the mother-in-law to tidy up the warehouse, and after Tang Ning punched twice, he sat in the courtyard to bask in the sun, and the maids were waiting on the side.

But the house was not destined to be peaceful, and not long after the sun rose, the mighty procession set off from Necuri.

The emperor's reward came down, because Zheng Yi had known about it for a long time, and the list of rewards was also drawn up by Zheng Yi, so it had already been put together in advance.

The mighty procession walked on the street, and people didn't have to think about it to know that this was the emperor's reward for the freshly baked three princes.

The people in the Tang Mansion, who were already a little excited, immediately boiled, Tang Ning was basking in the sun leisurely, and the maid came to report the news excitedly.

"My lord, my lord, Gonggong Zheng is here, Gonggong Zheng is here, with the will of the emperor's reward, there is a long long queue, and there is no end in sight on the street."

"How fast is it moving?" Tang Ning stretched out in surprise.

He thought it would take at least a few days of effort, Rong Xuan was busy tidying up the warehouse early this morning, he still felt unimpressed, he didn't expect the reward to come down today, Rong Xuan This is an unpredictable prophet.

Xia Hua said happily: "My lord, do you want to change your clothes?" ”

Naturally, he wore regular clothes at home, and Tang Ning was still wearing a half-new navy blue spring dress, because he originally planned to make a flower chicken and barbecue by himself after basking in the sun.

Tang Ning waved his hand indifferently and said, "Don't bother, so be it." With that, he strode out.

Xia Hua was stunned and hurriedly followed and said, "My lord, today is a big day, and it is Gonggong Zheng who came to deliver the decree, how can the adults change their clothes!" ”

Rong Xuan was waiting at the second entrance, and when she saw Tang Ning striding towards her, she looked at Xia Hua behind him and said, "Why didn't my husband change his clothes?" ”

Xia Hua hurriedly said aggrievedly: "Madam, I have been persuading, but the adults insist on refusing." ”

Tang Ning didn't care and said: "Gonggong Zheng is also an old acquaintance, and what he wears is different." ”

It's all here, and it's impossible for her to pull Tang Ning back to change her clothes, so Rong Xuan can only follow him helplessly.

Zheng Yi was waiting in the front hall, and Qingbo said something with a smile, seeing Tang Ning and Rong Xuan coming, Zheng Yi took two steps forward, and saluted solemnly with a smile on his face: "I have seen the Third Highness, I have seen the Third Royal Highness!" ”

Yes, this is the first time that he has heard a solemn salute from an outsider, and Tang Ning said helplessly: "Lao Zheng, why are you so polite?" ”

A voice of Lao Zheng made Zheng Yi's face bloom, and said with a smile: "Etiquette cannot be abolished, Your Highness is now noble!" ”

Zheng Yi took out a thick list from his sleeve and said with a smile: "This is a gift list from the emperor, please check it with Her Royal Highness and Her Royal Highness the Princess, the emperor also said, if Your Highness needs anything, you can tell our family." ”
