Chapter 1294: The eldest son

In fact, the crown prince did think about how to treat Ye Qiu, because the military power in Ye Qiu's hands was too great, and it would be false to say that he was not afraid of it.

But after careful consideration, he still chose not to do it, firstly, he did not have the confidence to ensure that the border pass would not be turbulent when moving Ye Qiu, and secondly, as Ye Qiu thought, he took care of Ye Jing and his son Xiao Rui a little.

Ye Jing has always adhered to the rules since she married him, never crossed the line by half a point, and even accompanied him to endure hardships for so many years when he was in Nanyue, and after returning to the capital, he was not arrogant, and he didn't put the princess in his eyes without relying on his son, and even the people under him praised her.

There is also his son Xiao Rui, who is not only his eldest son, but also the smartest and most capable of his children, he has high hopes for him, except for the eldest son, he has never considered establishing another son in the future.

Ye Qiu is not only Ye Jing's eldest brother, but also the uncle of his most valued son, so he is destined not to do it easily.

He is not worried about Ye Qiu's rebellion, what he is worried about is that his relatives will interfere in politics after his death, and he is afraid that his son will not be able to control it, but sometimes looking at the relationship between his son and Ye Si'an, he feels that he is a little worried.

Then what completely dispelled Xiao Hong's idea of dealing with Ye Qiu was a letter from Ye Qiu, which said that the border had been stabilized, the two sides had exchanged trade exchanges, and it would be easy not to go to war in the future, and Ye Qiu hoped to return to Beijing to retire.

He took the initiative to give up his military power, what else is Xiao Hong worried about?

With this reassurance, he couldn't help but think of the ideas that Ye Qiu had given him over the years, and it was precisely because of these that he now successfully ascended to the position of the crown prince and took charge of the world.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt sorry for Ye Qiu, and in addition to feeling guilty, he had already prepared the will to canonize the grandfather of the country, and even wanted to let Ye Qiu take over after the military department Shangshu stepped down, so that people would not look down on him, and it would not make people say that he was ungrateful.

At the beginning of October, when the first cold wave hit, the old emperor was critically ill, and the hospital was helpless.

At the end of October, the old emperor could no longer support it, and died in the bitter cry of the prince and the queen, and the court was very sad, and the prince ordered the whole country to ban marriage and wine for one year, and the officials and people in the capital kept filial piety for 100 days.

November 10th, is the auspicious day of Qintian's supervision, the crown prince Xiao Hong ascended the throne, on the twelfth, the new emperor named the queen Dong as the queen mother, Feng Rong's wife Ye as the queen, and the son Xiao Rui as the prince.

And the princess Kang of Prince Kang's mansion seemed to have been forgotten, and no one dared to mention it, when the news of the canonization of the queen reached her ears, she scolded all the swear words in this life, but no one would pay attention to her anymore.

This year was very lonely because of the death of the old emperor, but the hundred officials in the court were relieved, it was finally over, and there was no longer any need to worry about standing in line.

Moreover, the new emperor now seems to be very benevolent, except for the three princes who rebelled at the beginning, few other officials have been implicated, which can't help but make them feel a little guilty, after all, they didn't have many people who were optimistic about the new emperor at the beginning.

So one by one, they riveted their political achievements, and they couldn't wait to show their loyalty, and for a while, the entire Darui Dynasty was developing in a thriving direction.

Prince An's mansion, Ye Sihui and her son kept vigil in the courtyard alone, Prince An has been under house arrest in the prison since the rebellion and has not returned, the princess has an ambiguous attitude towards their mother and son, maybe it is for the sake of her face that she is the queen's sister-in-law, or maybe because the princess is running around for the princess and has no time to take care of her, anyway, their mother and son have lived quite steadily these days.

"I didn't expect her to come to this point, which my mother never expected." Ye Sihui sighed lightly, "Rui'er, my mother didn't have a very good relationship with your uncle or the queen before, and she may not be able to help you much in the future." ”

"It's okay, mother, even if you can only be an idle clan child in the future, it doesn't matter." Ye Rui said with relief.

said so, but only he knew the loss in his heart, but in fact, whether it was Ye Qiu or Ye Jing, they didn't hold a grudge against her until now, and Ye Si'an and Xiao Rui had no prejudice against Xiao Rui.

It's just that now the new emperor has just succeeded to the throne, and Prince An has been imprisoned because of rebellion, and now the timing is obviously not right to bring Xiao Rui, and now Xiao Rui's psychological position is estimated to be unbalanced, you must know that he also had a great chance to be the prince before, and after he adapts to his current position, it is not too late to hand over some official duties to him.

In the summer of the following year, Ye Qiu asked to return to Beijing for retirement on the grounds that the border was stable and he was old. He is only in his early forties this year, if he is old, what are those white-bearded old men in the court?

But his initiative to ask to return to Beijing made some people breathe a sigh of relief, after all, he had stayed at the border pass for too long, and if it went on for a long time, wouldn't the border pass become a fief for one of his courtiers?

However, the timing of his request to return to Beijing was so ingenious that everyone couldn't help but wonder if he had supported the new emperor from the beginning? Otherwise, if you don't go back sooner or later, you just go back at this time?

And when he wanted to set up the crown prince last year, he also sent an urgent report from the border pass, saying that the barbarians had gathered troops to prepare for a large-scale invasion, and after the prince was successfully canonized, he said that he quickly saw through the conspiracy of the barbarians and won a complete victory.

In light of today's events, who would believe that there is no trickery in it?

But even if they guessed the truth, who would dare to tell it? Fortunately, the new emperor also seems to be a good emperor now, and Ye Qiu himself doesn't pay much attention to power.

It's just that after the new emperor allows Ye Qiu to return to Beijing, how will it be arranged? If he is really allowed to retire in his forties, it is inevitably a little unreasonable.

Soon, the edict of the grandfather of Chaopinguo was promulgated, and he also bought and expanded the houses around his original Hou Mansion, and called Ye Si'an, the son of Ye Qiu, to accompany the prince and lead the position of Shaoqing of Dali Temple.

This is simply a clear way to tell everyone that although Ye Qiu's military power is gone, he still has the imperial grace with him, and he has properly arranged his son.

However, in the year of the crown, he was already the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, and at the same time, he was also the prince's companion, and his future achievements were limitless, and even the children of the clan had to concede three points in front of him, Ye Si'an could be said to be a temporary beauty.

But at the same time, although his son was crowned the prince of the country, his grandson was rewarded, his daughter was the queen, and his grandson was the prince, Ye Sheng was still not happy, because these glories had nothing to do with him, and no descendants were close to him when he was old, and he was even more disgusted with his arrogant nature.

None of the people he introduced were reused, but were warned, and gradually fewer and fewer people surrounded him, and even his wife sneered at him.
