Chapter Eighty-Eight: Father and Son

After Cao Bo left, several of the chief eunuchs of the ceremonial supervisor glanced at Cao Yu with a little meaning, and then threw up their sleeves and left.

Jiang Banxia, who was waiting with his head bowed on the side, shouted: "Godfather? ”

"Let's go, too." Cao Alcohol raised his slender eyebrows and snorted lightly, they all came out of the quagmire, who can be more noble than whom?

...

The Qianqing Palace was originally the dormitory of Emperor Qingwen, but in recent years, Emperor Qingwen began to believe in Taoism, and the court meeting decreased, and it became the place where he cleaned up and dealt with government affairs.

Cao Bo's steps were gentle, and he held the teacup and slowly put it in Emperor Qingwen's hand.

Emperor Qingwen, who was leaning on the scriptures and reading the scriptures, glanced at the tea leaves in the teacup, and he said: "Today's tea soup is clear and smells fragrant, but this year's new tea?" ”

"The master guessed correctly, this is this year's new tea." Cao Bo said again: "The Longjing of the Ming Dynasty is the Eight Classics. ”

Emperor Qingwen picked up the teacup and took a sip and took a closer look at the teacup: "The fragrance is soft, and the buds and leaves are also neat and beautiful, it is a good tea." ”

"It's just too extravagant." Emperor Qingwen put the teacup and said: "Now that the treasury is not abundant, don't send this kind of money-consuming thing to the palace anymore, and all the saved ones will be allocated to the front army." ”

"The old slave understands." Cao Bo responded: "When I go back, I will tell them not to submit it again." ”

Emperor Qingwen pointed at it with one hand, and he suddenly asked, "How many years have you been following me?" ”

"Back to the master, more than twenty-nine years and three months." Cao Bo blurted out.

"Or do you remember clearly." Emperor Qingwen smiled: "At that time, I was not an emperor, and you were not a palm print, twenty-nine years, just like that, it passed in a hurry." ”

Emperor Qingwen couldn't help but sigh, but he was very pleased, although Daming continued to fight for many years, but the overall was still moving forward, and the forces that dominated the court were also bitten to death by the "vicious dogs" he raised.

These 'vicious dogs' that he has cultivated have cleared countless obstacles for him in the past twenty years, but this is not enough, and he is getting older, and the loss of life has made him panic.

Emperor Qingwen began to turn his gaze to these 'vicious dogs', and his cloudy eyes seemed to see that after his death, the 'vicious dogs' he had cultivated with his own hands would take the entire Daming into his pocket, and his descendants would be slaughtered.

For the first time in his life, he felt that something was getting out of his control, and he had to restrain or kill the vicious dogs before he died.

Now, it's time to wrap up.

"The person I envy the most is you, full of children and grandchildren." Emperor Qingwen joked: "I only have three sons. ”

"The master is really tormenting the old slave." Cao Bo laughed: "Our children and grandchildren can be counted on ten fingers, but master, you are the father of the people of the world, and the people of the whole world are your sons." ”

"Yes, all the people of the world are my sons." Emperor Qingwen stretched out his hand and said: "I am the father of the princes, and I am also the father of the people of the world, and the palms and backs of my hands are full of meat. ”

Emperor Qingwen folded his hands together, and he said: "When you are a father, you always have to worry about more snacks, and you should also take care of the people in Dongchang." ”

"Yes, the old slave will do it when he goes down." Cao Bo breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, long live being able to say this, proving that even if the previous matter was revealed, whether it was Zhao Han or Sun Qiumin's matter.

"It's 'manage', not 'do'." Emperor Qingwen emphasized: "When a son makes a mistake, the father should reflect on himself, not blame. ”

"The old slave understands." Cao Bo heard the second meaning from Emperor Qingwen's words, they are all 'sons', Emperor Qingwen does not pursue the ruthlessness of Dongchang, which means that he will not pursue the eldest prince, which can be regarded as a two-sided concession.

"I have already asked Lu Cheng to take someone to Ningshan overnight to secretly investigate the tea and horse affairs." Emperor Qingwen closed his eyes and said, "Wait for two more months, and the matter of tea and horses will come to light." ”

"Daming must clear the war in the north this year."

Emperor Qingwen's tired voice echoed in the hall, as he said, he is the father of the people of the world, how can he not care about the life and death of the people of the world?

"Your Highness, you wait for the minions."

"Wait minions!"

When Jiang Banxia heard the sound, he saw a small head emerging from the flowers, and a pair of big eyes like water grapes looked left and right.

The little eunuch who followed closely behind ran out of breath, shouting as he ran: "Your Highness, you run slowly." ”

Before the little eunuchs could catch their breath, they went straight to Cao Yu on the other side of the flowers, and several people immediately knelt down and shouted, "Sons, ask Godfather." ”

The child in the flowers crawled out with his hands and feet, stumbled two steps, and then crashed directly into Cao Yu's leg.

He stared at the big round eyes, and shouted softly in the tone of the little eunuchs: "Godfather." ”

"We're not your godfather." Cao Yu put his hands under the child's armpits and lifted him up: "The third highness is naughty." ”

"Godfather." The little prince shouted again, and he smiled silly.

This is the first time Jiang Banxia has seen the third prince, but he didn't expect it to be a milk doll.

"I'm three years old, and I can't speak well." Cao Yu held the third prince in his arms, and he tapped the third prince's head: "I'm afraid it's a stupid." ”

The third prince smirked, he slowly stretched out his little hand like chicken feet, and in his black palm lay a caramel the size of a fingernail: "Godfather, sugar, eat." ”

After holding it in my hand for a long time, it melted half of it and covered my hands.

"Eat, sugar." The little prince stretched his little hand forward again, and he stubbornly shouted, "Godfather, eat." ”

The black 'chicken feet' grabbed a very ugly-looking caramel candy, and it was difficult to swallow no matter how you looked at it.

Cao Yu smiled and pinched the caramel on the 'chicken feet', and put it in his mouth without looking at it, and the sweet taste spread in his mouth.

"The sugar of the Third Highness is very sweet." Cao Alcohol scraped the bridge of the little prince's nose.

The little prince clapped his hands and giggled.

And the little eunuchs kneeling on the ground were even more nervous, for fear that Cao Yu would punish them, and they all wanted to bury their heads in the ground.

"Bring the Third Highness back, wash it well, and change into clean clothes." Cao Yu handed the little prince in his arms to the little eunuch kneeling on the ground: "Today it was seen by our family, and our family can forgive you, but if it is seen by Banzai another day, you don't need to ask for your head." ”

"Even if you are not favored, you are still a highness." Cao Alcohol knocked and said: "You have to get by on face." ”

"The sons understand."

A few little eunuchs kowtowed, and trotted out of the imperial garden with the three princes in their hands.

"There is no mother in the palace." Cao Yu said: "It's always the most pitiful." ”

"Didn't the third prince raise him on the knee of the concubine?" Jiang Banxia wondered.

"Concubine?" Cao Yu knew Jiang Guifei very well, and said, "Raising? Dream on. ”

Concubine Jiang is different from the women in the palace, she almost never thinks about what will happen in the future, only Emperor Qingwen is full of eyes, if she gets tired of it one day, maybe there will be a wave of drama that will end up together.

"It's already merciful for her not to kill the child."
