Chapter 149: The Queen Mother's Opinion
Huo Lingxiao pretended to retreat and waited for Huo Zeshen on the road to Changle Palace.
After a few snowfalls, it is estimated that spring is about to begin, Huo Lingxiao raised his eyes, and saw a small green bud emerging from the tree.
Huo Zeshen was reprimanded by Emperor Nanshao in the main hall for not understanding the rules, and finally returned to Changle Hall in frustration.
"Why is my father always fierce, and he knows that it is not ...... who says me," Huo Zeshen muttered quietly.
Erbao followed behind him, and said intentionally comfortingly: "Don't be sad for the eleventh prince, the emperor just sees that you are young, unlike other princes who can share worries for the emperor, and even cause chaos for the emperor, then let's dangle less under his nose and learn more, isn't that the third prince in front of you!" ”
Huo Lingxiao looked in the direction pointed by Erbao, and really saw where Huo Lingxiao was waiting for him.
With his small steps, he ran over, "Third brother, why are you here?" ”
"The Queen Mother was taken away by her father in the main hall before, and she specially called you here and asked you to convey that if you want to see me, there must be something, I will wait for you here, how about not being scolded?"
Huo Lingxiao looked at Huo Zeshen's appearance, and he must have been scolded.
"Isn't it inevitable to be scolded? Anyway, I have been scolded a lot since I was a child. Huo Zeshen said indifferently, clasped his hands around the back of his head, and stretched his waist by the way.
Compared with the small thing he was scolded, what is more important is Huo Lingxiao's current title problem, Huo Zeshen is worried that Huo Lingxiao will make countless enemies.
The two walked leisurely through the imperial garden, and Huo Zeshen looked sullen.
Huo Lingxiao comforted Huo Zeshen and said: "Work harder in the future, don't let my father take advantage of your mistake and scold you, I know that you have always been very concerned about things in the court, and you lack a chance!" ”
Huo Zeshen pretended not to care, and walked casually, he didn't want to disappoint the imperial grandmother, but he didn't want to fight to the death for the status and interests of the court like other brothers.
On the way, he met the crown prince, and not long after he came out after greeting the queen, he met Huo Zeshen and Huo Lingxiao, presumably to see the queen mother.
"Is the third brother in better health?" The prince stopped in the middle of the road, looked at the two of them and said, "Why didn't the eleventh brother say hello when he saw this prince, how can I say that I am also your brother." ”
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is good, a good man has a safe life, and a good man has eight children!" Huo Zeshen rolled his eyes, and came out to block the road when he had nothing to eat.
He is not afraid of the prince, the prince is covered by the queen, but he is covered by the imperial grandmother.
"You!" The prince's eyes were full of gloom, and he raised his hand to point at Huo Zeshen, and finally fell down heavily.
"Why should the prince bother with the eleventh brother? He's still young, he doesn't know the rules, and he has to take care of his brother more, doesn't he? Huo Lingxiao said.
With this impermanent change in attitude, the air pressure around his body instantly decreased a lot, Huo Zeshen shrunk his neck, and couldn't help but shiver.
"That's right, the eleventh brother has not been taken care of by his biological mother since he was a child, and he naturally doesn't understand some rules, so he plays a little bit." The crown prince sneered and stared at Huo Zeshen like a poisonous snake.
In the palace, if you don't look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, you will respect him on the face of the prince, and the attitude is a little respectful, only Huo Lingxiao and Huo Zeshen rely on the Nanshao Emperor to remember the imperial concubine, and the other relies on the queen mother by her side to support them, the two of them are simply lawless, and they have never put him in their eyes as a prince.
Huo Zeshen moved his steps, not wanting to worry about the prince.
And the soles of Huo Lingxiao's feet were like piercing their heels, not moving at all, and sitting there like Mount Tai.
The cold wind blew up his robe, his starry eyes were bright, his deep pupils were unpredictable, and his thin lips were gently pursed, looking at his whole person like a mortal immortal, spotless.
"Do you say that again?" The ruthless energy in Huo Lingxiao's heart came up all of a sudden.
The prince's words meant something else, Huo Zeshen was too lazy to care, but he was not the one who was too lazy to care.
"Why is it that the eleventh brother has no biological mother since he was a child, and everyone in the whole palace knows that there is anything wrong?" The prince looked at Huo Lingxiao with a smile.
Huo Lingxiao is a mother who has a mother but no mother, and his dead mother, even if she is dead, makes the emperor special to Huo Lingxiao.
From childhood to adulthood, everything has to give priority to this Huo Lingxiao, obviously he is the prince of the East Palace, but he has to grovel in front of him and swallow his anger, his father's favor for Huo Lingxiao is far greater, more than other princes and princesses in the palace.
But Huo Lingxiao always disdains Nan Shaohuang's love for him, and even avoids this love, which makes him blushing and makes him jealous of Huo Lingxiao.
"The inside of the mouth is not clean, and the heart is black." Huo Lingxiao clenched his fists.
Huo Zeshen saw that the situation was not right, and immediately inserted himself between the two to ease the momentum of the upcoming fight.
Huo Lingxiao was like an iceberg as usual, the prince dog couldn't spit out ivory from his mouth, and the smell of gunpowder on both sides was full.
This front foot has just come out of the Jinluan Palace, and the back foot has fought with the prince, and in the end, he is not taking the blame himself, and he will not be scolded at that time, maybe there will be confinement, and he will not be able to see Wei Liuming for a long time.
Huo Zeshen will never allow such a thing to happen! "Third brother and third brother, I have a novelty there, I just came from the West across the ocean, let me take you to take a look."
Pushing Huo Lingxiao away stiffly, Huo Zeshen twitched his mouth and didn't forget to say a few words to the prince, "The prince is busy with labor every day, don't get tired, after all, the queen is still waiting to hug the dragon grandson!" ”
The green tendons next to the prince's temples are rising one by one, everyone knows that there are so many concubines and a side concubine in the prince's east palace, and there has been no movement for two or three years, and there are rumors outside that the prince will not raise it, saying that there will be no queen in this life.
poked the prince's pain all of a sudden, and when he came back to his senses, Huo Zeshen had already pushed Huo Lingxiao away.
Huo Zeshen took Huo Lingxiao away, and he was silent all the way, thinking that Huo Lingxiao was haunted by the prince's words.
As everyone knows, Huo Lingxiao was thinking about the matter about the prince's inaction just now, whether he raised it or not, he had to give him a dose of fierce medicine, maybe he could really get something, and an evil idea suddenly sprouted.
Previously, Emperor Nanshao was here, and the people in the harem behind the Queen Mother could not blatantly interfere in politics, so they could only privately ask Huo Zeshen to find an opportunity to bring Huo Lingxiao over.
Who would have thought that Huo Zeshen's understanding and way of doing things were so straightforward, because he usually spoiled him too much.
The Queen Mother cared about Huo Lingxiao and said: "Ling Xiao has worked hard this time, but he has also gained a lot, and he will teach Zeshen more when he goes back." By the way, he also brought Huo Zeshen with a sentence.
Huo Zeshen pouted, and when he opened his mouth, he wanted to be coquettish with the Queen Mother, but Huo Lingxiao grabbed his collar and threw him aside.
"It's not hard, if the Queen Mother doesn't suggest it, I can take Zeshen to live with me for a few days, so that he can learn the rules and ways of doing things."
"That's natural, this kid should have his own prince's mansion a long time ago, and he has been reluctant to leave the mourning family, if Ling Xiao is not annoyed, he can take it away immediately." The queen was overjoyed.
Aunt Yu didn't know where she suddenly appeared, carrying a bag in her hand and putting it on the table.
Huo Zeshen stared, this is also the speed of light, he feels that this is more like a conspiratorial, looking at the Queen Mother indignantly, and receiving a great grievance.
Huo Lingxiao shouted in his heart, he was sloppy, and Huo Zeshen was a mess from the Queen Mother, unconsciously holding his forehead and rubbing his eyebrows.
Huo Zeshen saw a happy smile on his face, and a sad face, and he was kicked around like a small leather ball.
"That's ...... Am I going to be able to play with her more often? Huo Zeshen sat down, holding the burden in his arms, whispering in a low voice, and suddenly smiled, the curvature of the corners of his mouth was the same as the Bay Bridge reflected in the water.
The Queen Mother began to ask Huo Lingxiao about her opinion on the crown, "The emperor intends to crown you on the throne, but there is quite a lot of objection in the court, what do you think?" ”
"Everything is decided by my father, he wants me to do this, then I, as a son, will do it." Huo Lingxiao was very humble.
The Queen Mother was satisfied with Huo Lingxiao's attitude, nodded slightly, but comforted Huo Lingxiao again.
The Queen Mother said: "But the time is not suitable for the king, and there will be many opportunities in the future." ”
To appease Huo Lingxiao and say that the time has not come, Huo Lingxiao's heart is not lost on the surface, the Queen Mother can say this to him, it is estimated that it is the matter of sealing the king, I am afraid that it will not be able to pass the opinion of the ministers of the court.
When it's time for lunch, "then let's all stay and finish lunch before leaving." "The Queen Mother left Huo Lingxiao for dinner.
Eunuchs and palace maids. Serve plates of delicacies to the table.
"Ling Xiao is not too young this year, should I consider the matter of accepting a concubine?" The Queen Mother also hinted that it was time for him to start a family.
Huo Zeshen saw that the situation was not good, and changed the topic, "Oh, Grandma Huang, what are you in a hurry, the third brother, he still has a lot of things to do, and besides, he is weak now, so he is naturally not in a hurry to get married, this Babao tea is really delicious......"
Huo Lingxiao also has the mentality of wanting to start a family, but he doesn't know what Wei Xiyue's attitude is towards him, and he doesn't want to force her to marry him by giving marriage.
After eating, Huo Zeshen accompanied Huo Lingxiao out of the palace, knowing that Huo Lingxiao must have been thinking about Wei Xiyue in his heart just now.
"Third brother, don't take Grandma's words seriously, think about him being so understanding, he will definitely not mess with the mandarin duck score to give you a marriage."
Faced with Huo Zeshen's concern for Huo Lingxiao, he said that he was fine, "No one can force me, I just want to take a scoop from her." ”
Huo Zeshen actually felt a little sick the moment he listened to it, what was going on.
At night, Huo Lingxiao was restless in the Three Princes' Mansion, thinking about going to Wei Xiyue to talk about this matter of sealing the king, the most important thing was to find out whether Wei Xiyue liked him in his heart, and with the attitude of trying, he went to Wei Xiyue overnight.
