Chapter 317: Brotherly Narrative
Huilan brewed some more drinks to play with in the Zhuangzi, anyway, there was nothing to do, she just played around on a whim, she hadn't been so easy for many years, and the child was not around, so she finally had plenty of time to be idle, and she didn't really want to deal with the disturbances outside.
Li Chengze said to her when he left, "Don't care how your sons decide, you just live your life, don't worry so much, there is always me, you can't accompany your son for a lifetime, or we will be together as husband and wife until we grow old, we have to learn to let go." ”
Hui Lan pondered that what he said was right, she has indeed been a little tired over the years, even if she has a grandmother, but the four children are not as simple as eating, drinking, and being served, she is almost occupied by the children All the time, this is still a girl to help her, and she has to manage the harem to take care of her sister-in-law and uncle, she has used all her energy.
Some people in the court proposed to establish a prince, but many people objected, thinking that the emperor was in the prime of life and that it was unnecessary to establish a prince too early.
The voices are uneven, each expressing their own opinions, and they all have their own little Jiujiu, Li Chengze's first attempt failed, and the intricate power relations in the court are much deeper than he thought.
The Li family of the Li sisters who were killed back then also stood on Li Yi's side, and they had resentment in their hearts after all.
When Li Yi reached his age, he was about to start choosing a relative, but someone in the court mentioned this matter, intending to take the throne with twists and turns.
The Li family wants to marry the Qian family or Li Yi, mainly because they want to marry Li Yi and marry their daughter to Li Yi, after all, he is the eldest son, and the Qian family is also a family of officials who have been officials for generations in the Qing Dynasty.
Li Lie and the others have also reached their age, and they were all born almost in a year, so it is time to choose a parent.
Instead, he washed away the fold of the crown prince, and Li Chengze lost his temper in the study.
The third prince came to the study to discuss matters, saw a pile of debris on the ground, and made a look for Chang Ji to clean it up.
"Your Majesty, haven't your brother and sister come back yet? Do you miss your daughter-in-law about this? ”
He smiled and teased, his brother has a good relationship, he can say a few words.
Li Chengze waved his hand and sat down, and Chang Ji re-served tea.
"What, let Lan'er go to Zhuangzi for the summer, she has had children one after another in the past few years, and she has lost a lot, which is really hard. Let her rest for a while or two. Another one wants to pick up the harem, and some people can't sit still. ”
The third prince smiled, "Your Majesty, don't blame me, who is an elder brother, for talking about you, you are too anxious about this matter, and I am also very optimistic about Brother Qian, he is indeed very good, but he is still a little young." ”
"When I was the crown prince, I didn't have a big brother."
Li Chengze is a little unconvinced, my son is really good.
The third prince glanced at him, "This time and that time." But it doesn't matter, you can grind slowly. What about the affairs of the Li family, his family wants to marry his eldest nephew and become a princess. ”
"What princess, I didn't plan to be crowned king in a hurry, but I was in a hurry."
"It's not like you haven't experienced it, what's so strange, but can your brother and sister not come back to preside over the overall situation?"
The third prince is very sympathetic to Huilan, when she cured the eldest brother's body, he has always been grateful, and he is also very optimistic about Brother Qian, who is more outstanding and early than the emperor back then.
Li Chengze waved his hand, "Let her rest, she doesn't like to fight for power and profit, and she doesn't approve of her son fighting for that position, but she has to fight for it, the children have me, don't let her participate, she has done enough, and she is worthy of the Qian family." ”
"This is a fact, no matter what, my younger siblings have really worked hard over the years, and it is good to rest, after all, it is my own business, and I really shouldn't let my younger siblings get involved. It's going to be drafted next year, do you want to choose a few kids? ”
"If you want to choose, third brother, you can help me think about whose child is better for a few boys, and this time I won't let Lan'er interfere, so as not to say that she is uneasy and kind."
"That's right, it's useless for people who don't know how to be grateful, I'll give you an idea, I'll give you an idea, I think the fourth and fifth look honest, and the mother family has no power, so you should choose a sensible girl to give some support.
The second child wants to choose a daughter-in-law who has ideas and can support things, and the second child has soft ears and can't handle things. Choose a capable and wise woman like your brother and sister. ”
Li Chengze sneered, "My own brother, do you think such a good girl can look down on my scumbag son, she is blind." ”
Rolling his eyes disdainfully, he knew what his son was like.
The third prince couldn't help laughing, "Then you have to choose, is it a prince, you can also be a prince in the future, and it is still a little useful to carry the lintel." ”
"Hey! If you have more children, you will be in debt. ”
Li Chengze covered his face and looked irritable.
"Hahaha, don't bother, I'm still upset, my third son is old enough, and I want to marry, I like the girl of the Ma family, can you give me a word."
"The girl of the Ma family, which one?"
Li Chengze doesn't remember his juniors, they have all grown up.
"Old man Ma's granddaughter, I look very good, I want to give my son, my son is very obedient, marry him with a powerful and means, can control him. Seriously, the upbringing of the Ma family is still okay, although our former queen is a bit extreme, but it is stronger than the Zhou family, brother, I beg you for a while, will you succeed? ”
The third prince took a fancy to the girl of the Ma family and wanted to marry his third son, but he had to ask for the emperor's consent, the first queen was a thorn in his heart, and the brothers actually understood.
"Come in and take a look at the draft, and give it to your nephew if it's suitable, if your character is not good, it's not okay, and if you marry a poisonous woman and go home, you will have to die."
Li Chengze has a good relationship with the eldest and three brothers, and is willing to tolerate it, but the premise is that the girl of the Ma family must be able to make him take a fancy to him.
"Okay, can you show your brother and sister?"
"Well, she will preside over the draft, and I will decide the candidate."
"Cheng, then I'll be relieved."
When the third prince saw that he agreed, he was also very happy.
The brother talked about other things, and when it came to the northwest, Li Chengze sighed, "I have to let the eldest brother hold on for a few years, and you have seen the Li family, so you can't use it." ”
"The emperor can rest assured, the eldest brother said that he is willing to stay in the northwest and be comfortable."
"I know that my eldest brother has worked very hard over the years, and the northwest is bitterly cold, thanks to my eldest brother's full support and guarding the northwest for me, I have no one in my hands, and I can't replace him. Li Tong went to the south, General Geng is old, and he can't hold on to rheumatism all over his body, hey! ”
"Your Majesty, this Li family has to guard against it."
The third prince also understands the emperor's hard work and embarrassment, generals are not so easy to choose, especially the generals who guard one side, and they are irreplaceable.
"Yes, I want to find out about him, but the Li family army has a lot of generals and forces, and the connections are complicated, no one can replace him, so I have to keep the Li family."
Li Chengze's face is as dark as ink, not very good-looking, civil officials are easy to kill, military generals should be cautious, and if they die, there is no one to fight and restrain the border passes.
