Chapter 1296: The eldest son

In the autumn of the following year, after the one-year mourning period of the first emperor, the emperor and queen chose a concubine for the crown prince with great momentum, and after layers of selection, the eldest granddaughter of the governor of Liangjiang was finally selected as the crown princess, and the granddaughter of the Dong family of Chengen Gong and the granddaughter of Shangshu of the Ministry of Officials was the side concubine.

What disappointed Ye Jing was that Ye Si'an didn't see the girl he liked among the show girls, and he didn't seem to be in a hurry about his life's events.

In the summer of another year, the Queen Mother fell ill in the summer resort, and Her Majesty was so grief-stricken that she served everything herself, and a month later she also fell ill and ordered the Prince to govern herself.

In the end, the queen mother did not survive this winter, her first half of life was too hard, and the former emperor fought wits and courage all her life, and she was forbearant all her life, until she was nearly seventy years old, she was relieved, seeing her son sitting on the throne, seeing that her grandson had also completed the major events in his life, and seeing that her mother's family was slowly recovering her vitality, she was relieved as if she had lost her goal.

Some people live for hope, some live for hatred, and after achieving these goals, some people move towards higher goals, while some people lose motivation and then lose their spirit.

The Queen Mother is obviously the latter, after years of struggle, she raised her eyebrows in one fell swoop, and she didn't know what to do while she was happy, so her body gradually collapsed.

The emperor and the queen mother and son have a deep relationship, the two have relied on each other since childhood, and they were excluded in this deep palace and then warmed each other, the queen mother went, and the emperor couldn't bear the grief so he fell ill.

Ye Jing was very surprised by such a thing, she thought that she would have to endure it for some years under the pressure of the Queen Mother, but she didn't expect that the Queen Mother would go after only one year, which made her a little embarrassed.

Although the Queen Mother said before her death that she did not need to prohibit marriage and drinking for a year, the emperor and the Queen Mother had a deep relationship and did not force others, but he himself insisted on eating a vegetarian diet for three years, and insisted on worshipping the Buddha to accumulate merit for the reincarnation of the Queen Mother.

During this period, he completely handed over the political affairs that he was not in a hurry to deal with to the crown prince Ye Rui, and he seemed to have the intention of being the emperor.

Three years later, he officially announced his retirement from the crown prince, and he and his concubines moved to the palace, but outside the palace, he also gave a Zhuangzi to Ye Qiu, and the famous words for him to live.

Now all eyes are focused on Ye Qiu, His Majesty's meaning is obvious, that is, he is afraid that his high-ranking and powerful relatives will interfere in politics, so let him accompany him to support the elderly, if he does not agree, it is estimated that the life of the new emperor and the Ye family will be sad in the future.

Ye Qiu smiled slightly: "In the end, he still doesn't worry about me, but this is normal, after all, I have made a lot of contributions to his accession to the throne." ”

"And what did you decide to do?" Zhong asked worriedly.

"What else can I do? In order to make him feel at ease, of course, he lived in the Zhuangzi arranged by him. Ye Qiu didn't care.

"But this ...... This is inevitably too impersonal. Zhong said dissatisfiedly.

"You can't think so, since ancient times, there have not been many kings who want a courtier to be in charge, and I'm not young anymore, and I don't want to worry about these chores anymore, the scenery of Zhuangzi that can be built outside the palace is definitely good, and there is nothing wrong with going there to retire, Your Majesty is just asking for peace of mind."

"But isn't that the equivalent of house arrest for you?" Affection or anger, anger His Majesty's ingratitude, others may not know, but in those years, she saw with her own eyes how much work her husband spent for the development of South Vietnam, and now that the big thing has been accomplished, she comes to doubt her husband, how can she not be angry?

"It's not like I'm staying on that Zhuangzi for the rest of my life and can't leave, and when I really hand over power, Your Majesty will be completely relieved."

"But I still feel uncomfortable."

"Stupid or not." Ye Qiu looked at his wife with a helpless smile, "No matter how great my contribution is, but I am a minister, he is a king, can I still rebel?" And you really shouldn't be afraid of me after Rui'er succeeds to the throne in the future? ”

"But you're his uncle!"

"So what, he's the emperor first, and my nephew second." Ye Qiu explained to his wife seriously, "No courtier can gain the trust of the emperor for a lifetime, and there is nothing wrong with stepping down now, at least they will not be disadvantaged by their son's future in the future." ”

When I say this, I like to say that even if my heart is unsettled, there is nothing to say.

Ye Qiu resigned from all his positions very freely, and moved to Zhuangzi outside the palace very quickly, but no one dared to look down on him, because although he did not receive the post again, he still had the title of the grandfather of the country, and although he had no real power, his son Ye Si'an was now the secretary of the military department.

Under the age of twenty-five, this is the first book since the beginning of the dynasty!

Ye Qiu can be described as a legend of the Great Rui Dynasty, as the concubine of the uncle's mansion, but he has been in charge of the border military power for 20 years without relying on any relationship, and then he was given the title of the grandfather of the super country, and was established as the secretary of the military department, but after only serving as the secretary of the military department for five years, he retired bravely in the year of knowing the mandate of heaven and no longer held any real power.

But a hundred years later, his son Ye Si'an is more famous than him, because Ye Si'an is not only the youngest prime minister in the history of the dynasty, but also the only prime minister with a knighthood.

What makes people talk about is his emotional life, in the ancient era of fifteen or sixteen years old, this Lord Ye did not get married until the age of his establishment, and his wife is not a noble daughter of a family, I heard that she is just a daughter of a small people in the market, although the identity gap between the two is huge, but this Lord Ye loves his wife very much, and has not accepted a concubine in his life.

So about this Lord Ye, many film and television works have been derived in later generations, which can always attract the pursuit of many girls, I can't wait to travel to that era and witness the demeanor of Lord Ye, and I can't wait to become a woman who is held in the palm of Ye by Lord Ye.

Ye Jing, who was nearly ninety years old, trembled and walked to the tombstone of her eldest brother, she never thought that she would live so long, let alone that she would become the most noble woman in the world for decades.

And her honor in these decades has only been gained by one person, and she will never forget the promise that her eldest brother made to her when her father sent her to Prince Kang's mansion.

He said he would let her live happily, he said he would let her live freely, and he did.

She knew that her eldest brother must have done a lot for her, but she was extremely ashamed of him, because of her position and that of her son, he had to die in the prime of life.

In the past few years, her memory of the events of her youth has become clearer and clearer, and at the same time, she is also faintly suspicious of some things, and her eldest brother seems to have completely changed in the year she got married.

But what's the use of bothering about it now? She only knows that he will always be the big brother who loves her the most!
