Chapter 162: The low-key prince
The spring ploughing ceremony was held very successfully, and the men, women and children in the capital were praising the young and promising young princes of the six princes, and they even gave a title, "civilian prince", for this. The emperor was obviously very happy, and as soon as the lunch was finished, the six princes came to the Yangxin Palace to greet him.
"Yunchuan, you did a very good job this time, I thought you were still young, and you would be nervous in front of the civil and military officials and the people, but I didn't expect your behavior to be so decent, as if you didn't look like a child who grew up outside the palace since childhood, you have made a great contribution to this matter, let's say, what reward do you want? I will give you whatever I can give. ”
Yun Chuan smiled, he was very grateful to his father for being willing to give him this opportunity to let himself experience, the other imperial brothers were older than him and had more experience than himself, but his father still chose him, and he felt very happy in his heart.
But happy is happy, and he still hasn't forgotten it.
"Father, the sons and daughters have thanked their fathers first, and this ceremony can only be done by the father's command and sons."
The emperor came over and helped him up, "Don't kneel down at every turn, you and I are not only monarchs and ministers, but also father and son, what do you want?" ”
Yun Chuan almost didn't think about it, knelt down again, he first asked his father for forgiveness, and then said: "It is the greatest reward for the son to be able to accompany his father from time to time, so the son does not want gold and silver treasures, those are all things outside the body, the son is brave, please ask the father to reward all those rewards to the farmers, this spring ploughing ceremony The son is deeply touched, the people rely on their sweat in exchange for food, the son thinks that the father can take out some of these rewards to give the top three farmers in the national grain harvest every year, as a reward, It can also motivate more farmers to work hard to grow crops. ”
"In this way, the people will share the kindness of their father, and the people will be happy and the court will be stable!"
The emperor didn't expect that his youngest son would be so far-sighted and concerned about the people of Limin, he was very pleased, and patted Yunchuan on the shoulder again and again and said, "Okay! Good! I hereby proclaim the Holy Decree to the world! ”
The decree was soon heard, and the next morning, there was an uproar in the court, and the ministers looked embarrassed, and only gradually quieted down after the emperor went to court.
Some ministers thought that the six princes were now young and vigorous, and the emperor was in his prime, so he let the six princes participate in national affairs, especially the matter related to the rations of the Li people, but I am afraid that it would be too hasty.
The emperor was expressionless, "Then you can tell me, what's wrong with me letting the six princes intervene in this matter?" ”
At this time, another minister spoke, he frowned and said: "Your Majesty, now that the crown prince's position is hanging high, and the six princes have been outside the palace for many years, it is in a hurry to return to the palace suddenly, and it is naturally a good thing for the emperor to cultivate the princes' ability to deal with affairs, but according to the minister's opinion, the six princes are now the age to do things impulsively, and besides, if someone uses the six princes to make a wrong decision, it will hurt the country and make the country uneasy!"
The emperor was very angry when he heard this, but he knew that the advice of the officials was for the country, and he knew what kind of person Yunchuan was, "The sixth prince is still young, don't you still have me and you?" I know what you're worried about, but I'm going to let him go through it, so I don't need to mention it for the time being! ”
After going down to the court, the emperor thought about what the officials just said, it was not unreasonable, Yunchuan, this kid is very much like himself when he was young, and he just came back from outside the palace, and he doesn't have much affection for himself, if he is really used by someone with a heart, he has a mind that he shouldn't have, and he is not so easy to deal with.
He thought about it, and came to the queen's palace.
"Your Majesty! The emperor doesn't seem to be in a good mood today, didn't the six princes just make meritorious contributions? The emperor should be happy! ”
Seeing this, the queen called the palace people to bring the meal and accompanied the emperor to eat together.
In this regard, the emperor did not speak, but just ate quietly.
"Your Majesty, try this!" She picked up a piece of chicken and put it in the emperor's bowl, and continued: "The concubine heard that the emperor listened to the words of the six princes and rewarded the farmers, especially the good harvest, but the concubine had a word on this matter, and I don't know whether to talk about it or not."
The queen paused slightly, and seeing that the emperor's expression was the same, she continued: "The emperor actually doesn't have to completely listen to the opinions of the six princes, after all, the six princes have only returned from outside the palace not long ago, and they have come into contact with this political matter for the first time, so it is inevitable that they will not think it through. The ancients did not suffer from poverty but from inequality, and if the rewards were not properly distributed, it was easy to be self-defeating. ”
Because of the queen's power, the emperor occasionally allowed her to talk about some political affairs, but the more he listened to it today, the more angry he became.
"I have my own decision on this matter, and there are also officials in the court today, but I plan to observe the six princes first, and you also said that after all, he is the first time, this time he is not good enough, and the next time it will be better."
The queen smiled awkwardly, "Naturally, there is no problem with what the emperor thinks, but the concubines think that the emperor is ......"
Before he finished speaking, the emperor stood up and wiped his mouth, "You eat slowly!" I'm going first! ”
The queen didn't expect the emperor to value the six princes so much, and the emperor still can't forget that slut!
She gritted her teeth and stared at the table viciously and said to herself: "It seems that what I said today has not been able to touch the most sensitive place in the emperor's heart."
It is impossible not to be suspicious as an emperor, especially when it comes to the throne.
Somehow, the emperor was uneasy, and subconsciously came directly to Yunchuan's palace, but found that he was watering flowers and grass, and from a distance, the child looked indifferent and distant, which was really not like what they said.
Seeing this, the emperor's mood finally calmed down, and Fang Cai's hesitation was also left behind.
This child has lacked care since he was a child, and now he doesn't want to hurt him again because of his suspicion and other people's worries, at least give him a chance.
The emperor recognized Yunchuan more and more, and rumors about the six princes spread all over the capital, Mrs. Hou didn't know when she knew about it, and when Jiang Yingli returned to the mansion that day, she was pulled by Mrs. Hou to speak.
Mrs. Hou told Li'er what Yunchuan had done, and Jiang Yingli was naturally very happy when she looked at Mrs. Hou's face full of relief.
Mrs. Hou was very happy, and couldn't help but say a few more words: "Yun Chuan and my sister's personalities are really similar, they both know how to hide their edges properly, they will not be complacent and complacent when they are rewarded, and they will not be arrogant and give up easily when they are at a low point." ”
"It's not easy to live in the palace, and instead of showing yourself too much, it's better to hide yourself, so that those who are eyeing you lightly will not attract enemies for yourself."
Jiang Yingli also smiled very happily, she agreed with what Mrs. Hou said, she has been trying her best to restrain herself with this truth over the years, unless she has to, she will never let others know herself too much, let alone do things publicly.
And the reason why I like to live with Anping Hou and Mrs. Hou is also because they are not good people, the so-called smart people are like this, there are always people outside the world who are outside, if you don't know how to keep a low profile, one day you will invite trouble.
But why is this Sixth Prince so similar to Qiu Muyun? Jiang Yingli thought of him unconsciously, remembering that he used to live with him, his whole body was radiant, but he never showed off, and the same was true of the six princes, just like another Qiu Muyun.
