"You want to assist the crown prince in ascending the throne?" Empress Xiao was surprised, he thought that since Chen Kefu had taken them here, he must have planned to use them to blackmail the imperial court, and even planned to exchange them for some benefits, but he never thought that there was such a possibility.

Chen Kefu nodded and said solemnly, "Your Majesty is now unable to govern, and the court has become a mess. The minister believes that according to this situation, His Majesty should be asked to abdicate as the emperor as soon as possible, and the crown prince should be invited to ascend the throne and ascend to the throne of the Son of Heaven, so as to end the court disputes and restore peace in the world. ”

Although Chen Kefu's righteous and awe-inspiring words still had too many flaws in the queen's ears, the queen was also confused at this time. Hearing this, it was like a straw encountered when drowning, and instinctively grabbed it.

Empress Xiao was breathing rapidly, and there was a hint of scarlet on her face. His eyes were bright and bright, and he said with anticipation, "When does the big handsome plan to set off and escort the crown prince back to the eastern capital to ascend the throne?" ”

Chen Kefu said with an embarrassed face, "The queen still doesn't know some news, such as today's chaos." Because the imperial army was close to Taiyuan, Hedong, most of the ministers and generals were in Taiyuan, so that there were no soldiers and generals in the southeast. Now all parts of the south of the Yangtze River have rebelled against the Sui, and even the southeastern counties of Henan have long been occupied by the Wagang rebels. Now the rebel army is in full swing, and more than 200,000 soldiers and horses are besieging Luoyang, but at this time, we can't go to Luoyang no matter what. Therefore, the minister thought that Zhuojun would be temporarily changed to Beijing, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would ascend the throne in Beijing first, and after the imperial court sent a large army to encircle and suppress the Wagang Army in Henan, he would return to Luoyang. ”

Empress Xiao glanced at Chen Kefu a few times, but she already had some clarity in her heart. The emperor's days are numbered, and the crown prince is young. After succeeding to the throne, the minister will inevitably be in charge of the government. Chen Kefu now holds them in his hands. How could it be so easy to return? Not to mention whether it is true or false that the Henan Wagang army is encircling Luoyang now, even if Henan is smooth, he will find an excuse to leave the young emperor in Hebei.

Historically, Cao Cao was not the same, and after welcoming the Han Emperor, he immediately welcomed the emperor from Luoyang to Xuchang. At that time, Cao Cao changed Xuchang to Xudu, put the emperor in his control, and from then on coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes. Chen Kefu had already rebelled against the imperial court. Later, although the emperor sent the princess and relatives, and added the official title of king, it was only a superficial appeasement.

I'm afraid that now Chen Pojun feels that their mother and son still have some use value, so he keeps them. Stay in Hebei, sooner or later, one day, if you feel that they are useless, you will definitely kick them away and throw them aside.

The queen was silent, she knew that she didn't have half a chip to fight for on this issue.

The eight-year-old crown prince Yang Gao is smart. But it's just a child, facing a table of food at this time, and after a few days of dust along the way, he is now eating a big meal. didn't notice at all that Empress Xiao and Chen Pojun were talking about his future right now.

Empress Xiao picked up the chopsticks, helped the prince and Zen Master Yuwen to pick up some food, and sighed helplessly.

"During the siege of Yanmen, Concubine Xiao was assisting in the defense and was hit by a stray arrow. I went within a few days. Right now, His Majesty is not yet fifty, and he is going again. This child is only eight years old, but he did something wrong in his previous life and has to suffer so much. ”

Chen Kefu knew that the concubine Xiao that Empress Xiao was talking about was actually the prince's biological mother. Yang Guang only has three sons and two daughters in his life, among which Yang Zhao, Yang Mian and Princess Nanyang are all born to Empress Xiao. And Princess Izumo was born to a palace maid of Xiao Xìng, who was still the king of Jin Yang Guang blocked an arrow and died, and gave birth to a daughter after death, that is, Izumo. And the biological mother of the crown prince Yang Gao is also surnamed Xiao, and her identity is one of the nine concubines. However, Yang Gao, like Izumo, was raised by Empress Xiao herself when he was born. So in a way, these five children were actually raised by her. It's no different from the biological one.

"Born in the family of the emperor, he is destined to be the lord of hundreds of millions of people in the world at such a young age, such a blessing, I don't know how many people can't ask for it." Chen Kefu said indifferently. Countless people may not be able to get these after struggling all their lives, and Yang Gao was just born in the emperor's family, so when he was just a child, he became the king of the world, and this thing really can't be said to be good or bad.

Empress Xiao took out a handkerchief and helped Zen Master Yuwen, who was only six years old, wipe the rice on her face, and her heart was full of love. …,

"Is Nanyang now in Liaodong or in Hebei? When will the handsome be willing to be gracious and let this damned child be with his own mother? ”

was stared at by the queen, Chen Kefu could only laugh a few times, and then picked up his wine glass, intending to cover it up by drinking. As soon as his hand reached over to take the wine jug, his fingertips suddenly touched the cold green onion white jade finger, and when he looked up, he found that Empress Xiao's hand was grasping the wine jug. Originally, she wanted to pour wine for him, hoping that Chen Pojun could let Princess Nanyang's mother and son meet. But I didn't want to, and all of a sudden, both hands went to take the wine jug at the same time, and they were together for a while.

Feeling the coldness and softness in his hands, Chen Kefu suddenly felt a dàng in his heart. Originally, it was just an ordinary finger contact, but just because the owner of that hand was Empress Xiao, who had an unparalleled temperament, I suddenly felt a burst of jīdàng in my heart. Knowing that it was not compatible, the hand involuntarily stroked the back of the jade hand.

Empress Xiao felt this act of ignorance, and her face turned red. The hand held by Chen Kefu immediately retracted, and Chen Kefu also sobered up all of a sudden. scolded himself a few words in his heart, lowered his head and coughed a few times to cover up.

When she raised her head again and looked at Empress Xiao, she found that her face was still scarlet. The gaze turned to the side to look at the prince, and when he felt Chen Kefu's gaze, his eyes were a little evasive. The queen has been a princess since she was a child, but because she was born in February, it is customary to say that a woman born in February will be a family, so she has been sent out of the palace since she was a child and handed over to her uncle and uncle to raise. Even because of her adoptive father's poverty, she also worked as a farmer, spun cloth, and took care of housework.

It was only later that she was elected as the princess of Jin, entered the Daxing Palace of the Sui Dynasty and was raised by Queen Dugu, and finally became the princess of Jin, the crown princess, and the queen. Up to now, Empress Xiao is over forty years old, but many years of pampered life in the palace have made this queen with grace and luxury and unparalleled temperament like a goddess. For so many years, although many people marveled at her beauty and sighed at her temperament, no one dared to be rude to her like Chen Kefu today. After the anger in my heart, there was a feeling of indescribable incomprehension.

"Princess Nanyang is now in Liaoxi, and when my subordinates entered the Ziwei Palace in Luoyang, they wanted to take out the clouds to Liaodong, but they didn't expect that in the end, they took Princess Nanyang away by mistake. During this time, Princess Nanyang has been in Liaoxi, and I have never dared to slack off. Wait for me to send an order immediately, so that Princess Nanyang will be brought to reunite with the queen's family. ”

Chen Kefu agreed to the matter, now that the big thing has been decided, Chen Kefu no longer has to insist on separating Princess Nanyang from the queen. Anyway, everything has already been discussed, and it doesn't matter if you see it or not.

Empress Xiao picked up the wine jug and poured herself a glass of wine, and drank it all in one gulp, as if to hide the somewhat embarrassing atmosphere, but the wine was a little urgent, and after drinking, the queen's face turned even redder.

"Where is Izumo now? At the beginning, His Majesty decreed that the marriage was given and the princess was sent to Liaodong to complete the marriage, but I don't know if the marriage will be completed? ”

Being stared at like this by the emperor, Chen Kefu also felt a little embarrassed, and he kept saying that he liked the princess. At the beginning, he took the princess sī to run, and he sent people to the palace to rob people. But last time, the emperor sent the princess to Liaodong to marry him, but because he took into account the interests of the Liaodong army, he not only dragged out the marriage in the end, but also never even saw the princess face. And he even had the same idea in his heart as most of the courtiers, planning to marry the eldest grandson Wujian as his wife, but as for Yang Ji'er, who used to be in the Jellyfish Mountain Alliance, he could only put it aside.

At this time, he was questioned by his mother-in-law, Chen Kefu felt very unreasonable, so he stretched out his hand and grabbed the wine jug, poured himself a glass of wine, and drank it all and said, "I haven't come to see Ji'er yet, I plan to marry Ji'er after the crown prince ascends the throne." ”

Seeing Chen Kefu's appearance, Queen Xiao already knew a little bit in her heart. sighed secretly in his heart, thanks to Izumo's repeated efforts for Chen Kefu, but in the end, he couldn't compete with the benefits.

The two of them stopped talking, you have a glass, I have a cup, and a jar of fine wine on the table was drunk in such a muffled voice.

Unknowingly, Chen Kefu was drunk. After leaving the living room and putting some water, he already felt top-heavy when he went back, and when he returned to the living room in a dizzy, he strayed into a bedroom.

I don't know how long I slept on the chuáng, and I don't know what time it was. He felt that he had a dream, in the dream, as if there was a fragrant breeze blowing, a hazy figure of a woman trembling to help him untie his clothes, and after a while, he felt a warm and moist place to wrap himself, very comfortable. Immediately, there was a fragrance of Rulan blowing on his body, accompanied by the suppressed voice, and he gradually became excited.

Chen Kefu stretched out his hand to climb the double peaks in a hazy way, and only felt that he was plump and soft where he touched it. He climbed the peak with one hand, and caressed the bee with the other, which was so tight and delicate that it was no fat. The low shēn 呤 of the person who was extremely suppressed and still had no leakage made Chen Kefu can't help but work hard again and again, constantly looking for that feeling of extreme happiness.

I don't know how long it took in that dream, Chen Kefu felt a sour numbness, a slight dizziness, and then he leaked out.
