Although the royal family does not have such an obvious distinction between concubines and concubines, all princes are eligible to inherit the throne. However, the lineage is more valuable. Otherwise, the abolished prince has been abolished, why are there still people following him.

The queen mother was persuaded by Mama Yuan, that's right, how important is it to have a grandson, first give birth to the eldest grandson steadily.

The third princess Minying, after sending her two sons to the imperial school to study, entered the harem to see Ye Qingyan, and brought a lot of things.

“…… The contents of this box were specially sent by Wen Lang's grandfather, wisteria, at least eight hundred years of good things, and I don't know if you need it. ”

"Eight hundred years!" Ye Qingyan got up from the phoenix chair in surprise, and then walked to a sunken wooden box tied with a red ribbon.

Min Ying asked people to open the box, and the first thing that was revealed was soil, the soil that exuded a faint aura, Ye Qingyan was very surprised, "This is?" ”

"I dug up the soil along with it." Min Ying smiled: "This sunken wood box can best preserve the spirituality of the wisteria, and now it looks the same as when it was first unearthed." ”

"Well, the wisteria is still alive, which is really a good thing!" Ye Qingyan grabbed a handful of soil and sniffed it, with an extremely faint aura. But no matter how light it is, it is also aura, which is absolutely rare in the world.

"Where did you dig it?"

Min Ying replied: "Wen Lang's grandfather's house, originally an ordinary mountain hunter in Wenquan Mountain, his ancestors have been in the mountains for generations, and his father came out of the mountain when he arrived in Wenlang, participated in the martial arts examination, and got a tanhua, and later the family came out of the mountains, but Wen Lang's grandparents are still guarding Wenquan Mountain. A few days ago, the old man went up the mountain to dig wild potatoes and accidentally found this wisteria. It just so happened that he also heard the news that the queen was pregnant and that His Majesty was opening Enke, so he dug it up and asked me to send it to the queen, praying that the queen could give birth to a dragon son as soon as possible. ”

"The third sister helped me tell me, and said that the old man bothered, and the palace was very moved. However, these 800-year-old wisteria is definitely a rare treasure that can be met but not sought, did you really give it to me? The more Ye Qingyan looked at it, the more he liked it, this kind of treasure is not something that can be encountered casually, Xiao Changqi also found a lot of treasures for her, but there is really no eight-hundred-year-old wisteria, there was a five-hundred-year-old one before, and it is still dead, but now this one is alive.

"Of course it's for you, otherwise what am I bringing into the palace to do, to show off to you?" Min Young is witty.

Ye Qingyan also smiled: "You can show off, and I will be very envious, and then let Your Majesty snatch it from you, hehe~"

"No, no, I'll send it." Min Young covered her lips and laughed, "If you like it, it's fine." ”

"I like it, I like it very much, thank you, third sister."

"No thanks, you can give me a royal nephew, whatever you want, as long as the third sister has it, I will give it to you."

"The third sister is so good to me."

Ye Qingyan and Min Ying had a very happy conversation.

In the imperial study, the atmosphere was quite quiet, even depressing.

The dragon pattern bookshelf of red sandalwood reveals the dignity and heaviness of the emperor, and the agarwood curls in the gilded dragon pattern copper furnace.

Xiao Changqi was dressed in a dark purple embroidered five-clawed golden dragon pattern, with black hair tied high, standing in front of the bookshelf, taking a roll of bamboo slips from the bookshelf, and then walking towards the chess table by the window.

Kneeling in front of the chess table was a middle-aged man dressed in a second-grade official mansion, his face was slightly pale, and fine sweat broke out on his forehead.

Xiao Changqi walked to the chess table and sat down, only then tilted his head to look at him, and said lightly: "Do you know why you came over?" ”

Kneeling down is Gu Yuliang, the secretary of the ministry, who is also the biological father of Li Wanyi in the harem, and one of the several existing old ministers of the two dynasties in the court.

Gu Yuliang heard Xiao Changqi's question, and replied nervously and cautiously: "The minister is ignorant, please make it clear to Your Majesty." ”

This young emperor, since he ascended the throne, has shown extraordinary intelligence and cool means, and in front of him, the old fox has to hold his tail between his legs.

Xiao Changqi followed what was written in the bamboo slip, and his long fingers elegantly pinched the black and white jade chess pieces, and placed them on the chessboard one by one, posing an endgame. And the crisp sound of each chess piece falling on the board seemed to hit Gu Yuliang's tense nerves, and he was about to break.

"During this year's Spring Tour, many people in the court were deposed." Xiao Changqi finally spoke up.

"Yes, Your Majesty, this spring patrol supervision is very strong, and many black sheep have been caught, and Ye Yushi has made a lot of contributions." Gu Yuliang pondered, since His Majesty ascended the throne, the post of Imperial Historian has been vacant, could it be that His Majesty wants to promote Ye Yushi to be Imperial Historian? Although the seniority is still young, it is not impossible.

Xiao Changqi looked at Gu Yuliang, who was still kneeling on the ground, twisted a chess piece, and said: "This time, Enke, the Ministry of Rites is responsible for the selection, and the Ministry of Officials is responsible for the appointment according to qualifications, I hope to select a few really useful talents." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, the minister will do his best."

"Well, step aside." The chess pieces between Xiao Changqi's fingers, 'ding~', landed on the chessboard.

Gu Yuliang was stunned, is this okay?

"Is there anything else going on with Gu Aiqing?" Xiao Changqi saw that he was stunned and asked.

Gu Yuliang hurriedly came back to his senses, "The minister retreated." ”

"Go ahead." Xiao Changqi began to deduce the endgame by himself.

After Gu Yuliang came out of the imperial study, he felt as if he had been fished out of the water, and his underwear was soaked, but he was still puzzled, is it okay Your Majesty? Just to say a word about Enko's election? Definitely not! He wants to find someone to ask, what is Your Majesty's intention?

As everyone knows, Xiao Changqi instructed him to choose some usable and manufacturable materials for training, and there was a shortage of manpower in the court, especially the lack of basic talent reserves.

After Gu Yuliang left, in the imperial study, a secret guard came out from behind the bookshelf and knelt down on one knee to Xiao Changqi, "Your Majesty." ”

"What's the matter?" Xiao Changqi's expression was obviously a little more solemn.

The dark guard replied: "Bai Nanlian has crossed the border of Fengzhou and is on her way to the capital. ”

"Bai Nanlian, the master of Tianhe Qianzhuang...... Well, I know, the capital Fang Ding will send more people, and the gambling stone conference must not cause chaos. ”

"Subordinates obey."

……

Ren Ran stretched, seeing that it was not early, and was ready to leave the palace and return home.

But when he saw the door of his duty room, the official secretary was waiting with a sad face, obviously encountering something difficult.

"Master Gu, come in and get up." Ren Ran greeted Gu Yuliang.

Gu Yuliang bowed to Ren Ran first, "The ministers want to invite the Prime Minister to Jin Manying for a light meal, I don't know if I can appreciate it." ”

"Okay, Lord Gu, please." Ren Ran responded very happily. Someone invites a big meal, and if you don't eat for nothing, you don't eat for nothing. Eat it for nothing, because he is famous in the imperial court. It's hard to get something out of his mouth.

Ren Ran and Gu Yuliang took their respective carriages, went out of Xi'an Gate, changed into regular clothes in the carriage, and went straight to one of the most popular top restaurants in the capital, Jin Manying.
