Chapter 1 Two pythons compete with each other
In a chaos, the sky is broken, the fairyland is beginning to appear, there are colorful butterflies making flowers, white cranes spreading their wings, young deer eating pings, and two pythons sneaking in the abyss, all things are peaceful and orderly, each has its own fun.
Xiao Shao strolled around, stretched out his hand to brush the waist-high flowers and plants around him, looked up at the woman in Xuanyi not far away, stretched out his hand to the woman with a smile, and called, "Xijun." ”
Seeing that the woman was just standing there and looking at him with a smile, Xiao Shao was not annoyed, and withdrew his hand and walked towards the woman as if nothing had happened.
If the mountain doesn't come, I'll go to the mountain.
Ignoring the two giant pythons chasing and intercepting the young deer on the side, Xiao Shaojing grabbed the hand of the woman in Xuanyi, and complained, "You are always like this, you have to take the initiative to pull you to be close." ”
The woman in the dark clothes didn't answer his words, but just reached out and patted the black python that wandered to the two of them at some point, signaling it to throw away the half-dead deer in its mouth, the black python obediently did so, and the other black python with a red spot followed behind it and looked at Xiao Shao vigilantly.
"What is this?"
Xiao Shao followed the movements of the woman in Xuanyi and looked at the two pythons in front of him, and had a faint guess in his heart, the royal family of Daqi respected black, and the python was the special pattern of the prince's dress, and the words of the woman in Xuanyi were as expected.
The woman's expression was gentle, and she said softly, "This is your and my bloodline." ”
As if to prove the words of the woman in Xuanyi, the black python accepted the hostility in his eyes and obediently lowered his head to Xiao Shao.
Xiao Shao glanced at another black python around the tail and whining the young deer, put his hand on the black python's head and patted it twice, and suddenly thought of the word "chasing the deer".
"The fine gentleman is ......"
Seeing the figure of the woman in Xuanyi gradually dissipating, Xiao Shao's face finally changed, and he reached out in a panic to grab her, "Xijun!" ”
…………
"Fourth brother, fourth brother, Jide, Ashao, Shilang, girl, fourth mother, hey, are you awake?"
Seeing his younger brother, who was panicked in his dream, open his eyes and sit upright, Xiao Ye withdrew his hand casually, pretending not to know why his brother was glaring at him, and handed over a glass of water, "Drink some water to suppress the shock, how can you be so bad, and call your brother-in-law." ”
Although Xiao Ye was concerned, the smile on the corner of his mouth was not concealed at all, and he was not afraid that his younger brother would know that he was watching his liveliness.
"Thank you, big brother." Xiao Shao took the white porcelain cup handed by Xiao Ye with a stiff face, extremely embarrassed.
It's a shame to be tired of military affairs and sleep in the past, but it's really embarrassing to be a wife at home even in a dream.
Xiao Ye poured himself a cup of warm water and slowly sipped it, and said with a smile: "I shouldn't have pulled you to help me preside over the Beijing camp to change the defense knowing that my brother-in-law was pregnant, and you were so tired that you were worried." ”
Hearing Xiao Ye's seemingly apologetic but actually full of ridicule, Xiao Shao's face stiffened even more, and he said dryly: "Big brother is kind, I understand it in my heart." ”
This time, the Jingwei change of defense was transferred to Yandi, and he was asked to fight in order to let him contact the guards of Yandi in advance, after all, his fief was Jizhou, a military town on the border of Qiliao, and he would inevitably have to deal with the generals of Yandi in the future.
Xiao Ye glanced at Xiao Shao's red ears, knowing that his younger brother was anxious about the character of the six relatives who did not recognize, so he pushed the teapot to his side and turned over the matter of calling him Xiaozi without a trace.
Thinking of a series of younger brothers and sisters with strange temperaments in the family, Xiao Ye sighed again, and he didn't know how a genius like Aye A-Niang could give birth to a group of unobtrusive children.
Xiao Shao heard Xiao Ye sigh and looked at him suspiciously, and before he could ask, he heard the guards outside the car report loudly: "Your Highness, the head of the Yan Palace, asking to see him, saying that the princess gave birth safely." ”
"Really!?" Xiao Shao subconsciously straightened up, and only when he saw Xiao Ye's playful gaze did he realize that he was too excited, but now is not the time to care about this, Xiao Shao followed the words and asked, "Is it a man or a woman?" ”
"The subordinates don't know, and Manager Chen didn't say it explicitly."
Ignorance?
Xiao Shao frowned subconsciously, and the prince opposite also sat up slightly straighter, and the two glanced at each other, both aware of the violation.
How can anyone say only half of the good news, and refuse to even say it to men and women?
Since the previous dynasty, women can also be officials, and the empress has also produced a lot, and now Princess Yan is the eldest of both men and women, this is a great joy, I am afraid that I can't wait to say it to people, what can not be said.
Xiao Shao sat down slowly, Xiao Ye patted Xiao Shao's hand to signal him to be calm, and said to the guard, "Bring Chen Lin over." ”
"Yes."
The guards were ordered to leave, Xiao Ye saw Xiao Shao's cold face, and comforted: "It's a good thing that my brother-in-law is safe, and it's also a happy event to add Ding to the family. ”
Xiao Shao nodded, his expression gradually eased, he really shouldn't be cold-faced, maybe he and his eldest brother were thinking too much?
Chen Lin came very quickly, and after saluting the two of them, he avoided the guards and lowered his voice: "The princess has a dragon and phoenix fetus, and the lady is very healthy. ”
Before Xiao Shao could think about the hints in Chen Lin's words, he heard Xiao Ye laugh and say, "Dragon and phoenix fetus? This is a good omen for the dragon and phoenix to be auspicious and the world is safe, Shiro should go back to the house first, ask for a trick for his brother, and go back to the palace to report the good news to Aya first, and A-Niang will be happy when she knows. ”
Xiao Shao was not hypocritical when he heard Xiao Ye's statement, and immediately leaned over and thanked him.
Xiao Ye helped Xiao Shao up, and only said: "I am in the palace, and I am at ease." ”
Xiao Shao got out of the prince's car and got on the horse, leaving his guard of honor and going straight to the palace.
The twins are ominous, and a person in the harem of Emperor Xuanwu died of blood in less than a moment after giving birth to the twins, and the two princes were also drowned, and there was not even a shadow on the jade plate, if it was......
He didn't dare to think about what he would do.
Chen Lin's words should have been taught to him by Xijun, implying that he really couldn't go and stay one, but how could he be willing to do it?
Xijun is willing to compromise for him, but how can he use his children to exchange his future with peace of mind?
But he couldn't do anything, so he could only hope that Empress Chen would save the two children for the sake of the granddaughter of the eldest she had been looking forward to for a long time.
And at this time in the palace
Empress Chen received the news faster than all of them had imagined.
"The eldest daughter."
Empress Chen chewed these words with a smile on her face that could not be hidden, "The dragon and phoenix are auspicious, God bless Daqi, Your Majesty is very happy!" ”
"It's also a great joy for Your Highness!" Qiu Hua, the female official beside the queen, corrected with a smile on her face and bowed to the queen seriously.
As an old man beside the queen, Qiuhua also has a little understanding of the queen's thoughts, and after looking forward to it for a long time, she finally looked forward to such a clan girl who can rightfully inherit the title, how could she not let the ominous name of the twins fall on the little lady of Yanwangfu.
Since His Highness said these auspicious words, there is absolutely no reason to take them back, and His Majesty is not happy to follow His Highness.
After all, His Majesty is not the only one in this world, and Her Royal Highness the Queen's influence in the court is no worse than that of Your Majesty.
Isn't this a happy event?
Sure enough, Empress Chen followed her words and said: "I don't know if the people from the Yan Palace's mansion have entered the palace, we still went to Your Majesty earlier and waited, if the time is missed, it will not be beautiful." ”
Most of the people around Empress Chen have been on the battlefield with her, and they have learned her vigorous and resolute style of acting ten out of ten, although they did not receive the news in advance, but when Empress Chen walked to the gate of Weiyang Palace, the car was ready.
But it was said that the prince hurriedly entered the palace and happened to bump into Queen Chen, and he greeted him outside the car, and the mother and son looked at each other for a long time, but the prince opened his mouth first.
"A-Niang is also looking for Aye? Can I take a ride? ”
"That's exactly what I mean."
The two looked at each other and smiled, and everything was silent.
When she arrived at the Vertical Arch Palace, Empress Chen did not wait for anyone to be informed, and drove straight in with the crown prince, and said loudly: "Your Majesty is overjoyed!" Shiro has an heir! ”
Her Royal Highness the Queen's familiar voice interrupted the regular meeting that was going on in the Vertical Arch Palace, and the monarchs and ministers looked at each other helplessly.
The Empress raised the Marquis of Weiyuan reacted quickly, and said hello to Emperor Xuanwu before the ministers could react: "Congratulations to Your Majesty." ”
Although Emperor Xuanwu was puzzled by the queen's attitude, he couldn't show it in front of his courtiers, so he could only smile and nod his head, signaling Marquis Weiyuan to sit down first.
Fortunately, the queen had already entered the inner hall at this time, and answered Emperor Xuanwu's doubts with a smile, "The bride is blessed, and Shiro has both children and daughters." ”
"Twins?" Emperor Xuanwu was surprised.
"Exactly," Empress Chen sat down on the newly added seat as she followed the prince's movements, "It's a dragon and phoenix fetus." ”
The crown prince sat opposite Queen Chen, and after Queen Chen finished speaking, he saluted Emperor Xuanwu, "I heard that the dragon and phoenix fetus are auspicious for the dragon and phoenix, and the auspicious omen of the world's great peace has now descended on the royal family, so it can be seen that God bless me Daqi." ”
The crown prince and the empress, one is the future emperor, the other is a powerful general, two of the three giants of the royal family have already made it clear that the carriage and horse want to protect the two children of King Yan, and His Majesty has an ambiguous attitude, and the ministers in the palace feel that they have accidentally discovered the truth.
There has never been a precedent for twins in the royal family, and His Majesty must lack a reason to convince his subjects, how can he get a reason like Xiangrui to put gold on his face.
Consciously understood Emperor Xuanwu's thoughts, the prime minister reminded him: "For such a happy event, Your Majesty should also reward the Taiyuan Wang." ”
Although the Taiyuan Wang family is not like the ordinary family that engages in wind and rain, and the sense of existence is very low, this does not mean that people are not good, Your Majesty!
On the contrary, as a rare clear stream in the mudslide of the family, the Taiyuan Wang family produced a princess and a princess, not to mention the close relationship with the royal family, the Wang clan also devoted themselves to learning, and was a great family that could compete with the Confucian family in the world.
Taiyuan, where the Taiyuan Wang family is present, can be said to be ironclad, and this invisible pressure is the greatest.
Therefore, Emperor Xuanwu can be described as loving and hating the Wang family.
"What Qing said is very true, how about leaving this matter to the queen?" Since you can't turn around, it's better to be a favor, in the end, it's the granddaughter of your relatives, and you can't be too ruthless just for Shiro.
"Wang's scholarly family, the minister thinks that if you blindly reward some gold and silver vulgar things, it will be cheesy, why not give a academy?"
"Academy?"
"Exactly, I heard that many of Wang's Confucianism opened an altar outside Taiyuan City to teach, and those who are interested can go, so it is inevitable that the curtain is shabby, so it is better to set up a academy here, with Wang's Confucianism as a guest, and the imperial court will send people to take care of it, from Jinling martial arts examples, all those who successfully complete their studies are talents."
Taiyuan is close to the border, and few families are willing to send their children here, and the Wang family is even more interested, and will definitely protect this academy, and even do their best to cultivate these poor students. Emperor Xuanwu has been trying his best to weaken the influence of the Shi clan on the court, and naturally he will not let them interfere in the education of these students, but most of the great Confucians in Taixue and the Shi clan are not clear, so it is better to start a new stove and set up another Taixue instead of bothering to clean up Taixue.
As long as Emperor Xuanwu is not stupid, he will be able to completely knock the family that has no successor to the bottom within ten years.
Emperor Xuanwu is naturally not stupid, Empress Chen has found a good reason for him, what he has to do is to completely settle this matter, otherwise he will not know how many things will happen when those clans react.
Although the world clan can't actually make any big waves, it's really annoying to always jump around and slander the royal family, but there are still many people who eat this set, and take the words of a group of waste who don't produce as a guideline, I don't know what to say!
Emperor Xuanwu complained about the "tenacity" of the clan in his heart, but he was extremely fast, and after arranging this spring's spring plowing task with several important ministers, he went to the Yanwang Mansion with Empress Chen.
