"What? Do you know what a concubine means to the royal family? The five-year election is coming, even if you hate the court. You are also my second son. Your princess should always be worthy of the royal family, or be able to give you a boost. The emperor was shocked, and he pampered this son again, or it was indebted. I don't want to make concessions on this matter either.

"Father, neither of these points you said is a problem. Maybe by the time the five-year election comes, I'm not the only one vying to marry her home. The son has no intention of going to the world and the country, and he may not be able to find out the grievances of his mother in his life. But she can't marry her son. He is the only pursuit of his son in this life. I also ask my father to fulfill it. "The King of Joy persevered.

"That's it, you have faded out of the court for so many years. Just thinking about avenging the grievances of your mother and concubine really broke my father's heart. Who is the girl you like, let's also tell me. I would like to warn you that not everyone can receive a royal decree for marriage. She could be on the royal plate, but your future and her future will come to an end. ”

"What the father wants to express, the son understands. From the day the mother died unjustly, the son was already heartbroken and cold to the royal family. In this life, I will be a free prince, and I will travel with my beloved for a lifetime. The holy decree is the emperor's order, what else is there for the father to worry about? ”

"Alas! What's her name? What to do now? "The emperor is very helpless, but King Xiaoyao has already expressed his position, so he can't say anything more. From his sons, he left the palace at the age of 12 and officially established the position of the prince. The two eldest sons, the crown prince and the king of leisure, have always been the objects of his worries. The two received the same royal education and were equally competent. If the mother of King Xiaoyao is still alive, these two brothers may not know what the fight will become. Even if the second son has long ignored the affairs of the court, the prince is also jealous of him, and he is mixed up from time to time. Although on the Dongling continent, many small countries are headed by the Great Yan Kingdom. That is also based on the stability of the imperial court of the Great Yan Kingdom and the strong national strength. If there is chaos within the Great Yan Kingdom, other small countries will also have the opportunity to take advantage of the situation. It would be better for the king to quit by himself. The remaining sons were too young to pose a threat to the crown prince. But what kind of girl can make her second son not even want to fight. Curiosity outweighed interest, and the old emperor still asked inquiringly.

"Back to her father's words, her name is Poplar, the poplar of the poplar. Now he is the owner of a dim sum shop. She is not pretty, but her personality is very much like a mother's concubine. This is also the most attractive thing about my son. The King of Joy said half true and half false. Even if he doesn't say it, the emperor will check it.

"Topol? I heard that the eldest lady surnamed Wang Baifu is also called Bai Yang, and Bai Fu is looking for her to come back to participate in the five-year general election. Isn't it the same person? ”

"Father, the emperor, the son has investigated her, and their sister and brother have fled from other places, and they have also set up a household registration in the yamen. Their siblings' ancestral home was hit by a natural disaster, and only three siblings escaped. I heard that the family had a lot of money in the past, and there was not much left to flee all the way. He also had a family handicraft, so he opened a small dim sum shop in the outer city. Father, it is about the happiness of his son's life, how can his son not find out clearly. As for the matter of the foreign surname Wang Baifu, the son didn't care. What good upbringing can a girl who grew up in a pile of flowers have? Lost the royal face for no reason. ”

"You can't say that, you don't care too much about the affairs of the court. Many eunuchs have conducted surprise training for the girls they have recovered. Coming from the bottom of life is not entirely without advantages. To be able to ascend to the sky in one step, in addition to being grateful to the royal family, is still grateful. Plus **, even if he is elected to make peace, he will not lose the face of the Great Yan Kingdom. They won't be stupid enough to reveal their origins. ”

"Father is wise!" The King of Freedom said a little insincerely. The old emperor is not angry, who told him to owe this son.

"Emperor, your mother's death is not praised by your father until there is no conclusive evidence. More than ten years have passed, and your resentment towards your father has not diminished at all. My father is sad. ”

"Father, you can't count the number of wives and concubines, one more concubine, one less concubine doesn't matter to your father. And the mother concubine is the son's only relative, and she is an irreplaceable existence. ”

"Bastard! How do you talk to your father? The results are all explained to you, don't blame your father when the time comes. Marry whoever you want as a concubine. I'm going to the early dynasty, aren't you going today? ”

"The father forgives the sin, and the son will go to the dim sum shop to propose marriage."

"Get out!"

The emperor went to the court in a huff. The Easy King also achieved his goal. He glanced at the majestic hall, where there was no place for his nostalgia. Without pausing, he walked out of the palace.

At this time, the court was also very lively. It was only two months before the tributary of the Fan State once every five years and the marriage and kinship between the small countries. This is the biggest event in the Great Yan Kingdom.

"The emperor's young princes have also reached the age of kissing. There are plans to determine the choice of the princess in this general election. A minister asked bluntly.

"Prince, you tell everyone about the results of the deliberations in the small hall." There are too many such questions, and they are usually answered by the prince.

"Yes Father, now there is only no concubine in the Xiaoyao Palace, and the other princes only marry side concubines for the time being. If there are particularly good girls in this election, it's a different story. The prince stood up and said loudly. He especially enjoyed the moment, fantasizing that one day he would be the one sitting at the top.

"The side concubines are also concubines, the third prince, the fourth prince, and the fifth prince only have concubines in the palace now, and the next election will take five years, five years." The minister below whispered. The variables of the past five years are too great, and those who are scheming and skilled may have sat in the position of the concubine. Being able to enter the palace is the beginning of success.

"I don't know which girl is lucky enough to marry King Xiaoyao as a concubine." One of the ministers muttered even quieter.

"Cut, an embarrassing prince, he himself has given up so much. What are the benefits of being his princess? ”

"Then do you still want to be the ruler of the country? Bai Wangye's ambition is not small. The one who spoke was surnamed Wang Baixiang. What scared him was another foreign surname Wang Yunfei. That is, the father of the crown princess.

"Lord Yun, what do you mean? Could it be that you want to be the ruler of the country? It's better to be a side concubine for other princes than to be a concubine for King Xiaoyao. Don't do your job, don't take care of state affairs. Every year and a half, they will be intercepted and killed. To marry him, be ready to be a widow at all times. As soon as Bai Wang Ye finished speaking, the people next to him laughed in a low voice. This is really true, for more than 10 years, King Xiaoyao has been investigating the cause of his mother's death. gave up the court at all. To put it mildly, he gave up the struggle for the throne. There really isn't much future to be seen with him.

"The emperor heard that the Fan Kingdom is preparing to marry our Great Yan Kingdom this year. The missing lady in the house, the old minister has been found, and he is learning the rules from a few grandmothers at home. If the little girl is blessed with royal grace. The old minister is gone, but he has a matter on his mind. Another minister said.

"You are not in a small situation, and the small hall has also been discussed. Learn the rules at home, otherwise you will be eliminated from the primary. It's about the face of Dayan Kingdom, but it's not a matter of silver that can release water with face. The prince said majestically.

"Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince. When I get back, I will urge the children to learn the rules. Never disgrace the Great Yan Kingdom. This time it was a number of courtiers who answered together. It can be seen how many beggar girls have been found and selected. This is still qualified to ascend to the court, and those who are not qualified are even more.

The court also discussed the matter of entertaining the envoys of the Tibetan State. Almost every prince received an errand to entertain the envoys of a particular country. Half a day the morning sun ended, more than 100 people bustling towards the palace gate, becoming a scenery in the palace.

The crown prince did not leave with the courtiers, and went directly to the emperor's imperial study. This is also a common occurrence. There is a big morning day in the Great Yan Kingdom every month, which is the time when all the officials in the court discuss together. Then there is a small hall meeting once every 5 days, and the first prince who is qualified to participate. Then there are the prime ministers and the positive and negative officials of various departments. There are only a few positions in the emperor's imperial study, one is the crown prince, the other is the king of Xiaoyao, and the other positions are temporarily involved in the official seat of each department. The King of Freedom does not come once a year, and the court of the Dayan Kingdom is stable Every department is operating normally. Therefore, in the imperial study, only the emperor and the prince generally discuss confidential matters. The prince walked into the imperial study with a sense of superiority. I found out that there was one more person today, and it turned out to be the third prince who had just turned 16 years old. I couldn't help but be stunned with doubts.

"Brother Crown Prince, the third brother didn't sit in the wrong position, right?" The third prince smiled and asked a little humbly.

"Third brother, do you have anything particularly important? Or is it the emperor who asked you about other things. ”

"Prince, your third brother is 16 years old, and he has reached the age of taking care of court affairs. The fourth and fifth are also adults after marrying the side concubines. In the future, this imperial study will be the place where our father and son discuss the government. The emperor then walked in and said to the prince.

"Thanks to the grace of my father, my sons will definitely work hard and learn more from the prince's brother. This is the position of the second brother, right? The third prince expressed a little humility, and then asked knowingly.

"Humph! Don't mention the unpromising dick, he came to see me just now, and he didn't want anything for a woman. ”

"Ah, what kind of woman fell into the eyes of the second brother?" The third prince asked in surprise. The emperor glanced at the third child coldly and did not answer. The third prince was also very interested, so he didn't say it anymore.

"Father, don't be angry, hasn't the second child always been like this? He is also a big man, and he is not yet a man and a woman. If you really find the noble woman you like, you can also spread the branches for the royal family. The prince persuaded a little clearly.

"Noble fart, but a little businesswoman. Where is worthy of my son? The prince's words made the emperor even more angry. But the emperor didn't want to say any more. The father and son discussed the government.
