This lunch, Queen Tao ate it without knowing the taste.

Xiao Chengwen ate with relish and ate a full meal.

Emperor Yongtai is here to relax and eat satisfied.

After lunch, Emperor Yongtai returned to Xingqing Palace to rest, and there were still a few baskets of pieces waiting for him to review.

Empress Tao sharply questioned Xiao Chengwen, "A rare opportunity, your father asked you to enter the court to practice, why did you refuse?" ”

Xiao Chengwen rinsed his mouth, wiped the corners of his mouth, and said softly: "Can't the queen mother see that my father doesn't really want me to enter the court." It's just a casual remark, if I don't know how to be interested, my father will be angry. ”

Empress Tao didn't think so, "As long as you open your mouth to say a word, your health is good, and you want to share your worries for the court, even if your father and emperor say it casually at the beginning, he will eventually arrange an errand for you." As for whether your father is happy or not, it doesn't matter. Your third brother went out of Beijing for disaster relief, and at this time you should enter the court and watch the palace for your third brother. ”

Xiao Chengwen smiled contemptuously, "The queen mother needs someone to keep an eye on the movements of the court, so she can entrust it to the eldest uncle or someone else." I'm just a sick man, I either have a headache or brain fever all day long, even if I take on an errand, I can't go to court every day to share my mother's worries. I have self-knowledge, so I don't want to occupy a position and make people dislike. ”

"You, you're really going to be angry with this palace! Say that you are not motivated, you have one set of ideas after another, and you are more positive than anyone else when something happens. Say that you are motivated, and the opportunity in front of you, but you give up. You tell Hongu, what the hell do you think? ”

Xiao Chengwen said nonsense seriously: "The son just wants to share the worries of the queen mother and give advice to the queen mother." I never thought of sharing the worries of my father and the emperor for the court. ”

Queen Tao knew that he was talking nonsense, but she couldn't do it.

It's too pleasing to the ear, too beautiful.

As the saying goes, reach out and don't hit the smiling person.

Empress Tao sighed depressedly, "That's it! You have the right idea, and you should be a deaf ear to the words of this palace, and this palace can't control you. ”

"The queen mother is angry again, it is meaningless."

Xiao Chengwen mentioned it lightly.

Empress Tao became more and more depressed, and said angrily: "This palace is in front of you, can't you even say a word of complaint?" ”

Xiao Chengwen's face was expressionless, "What my son said, it is meaningless." Let's talk about something meaningful. ”

"What makes sense, you say, Hongu listens."

Xiao Chengwen put down the teacup and said, "The third brother went out of Beijing for disaster relief, has the queen mother made arrangements?" ”

"Of course! The food problem, with the help of Chengyang, everything goes well. Regarding safety, the palace personally sent reliable people to guard your third brother, as well as the imperial doctor and medicinal herbs. ”

"The queen mother never thought that the family might make trouble from it?"

"Of course, this palace thought of this, and specially instructed your eldest uncle to send people to keep an eye on the major families. No matter who dares to make things difficult for your brother, this palace will definitely not be able to spare him. ”

When Xiao Chengwen heard this, he laughed, "The queen mother is very thoughtful about her third brother. The only thing left out was his father. ”

Empress Tao frowned.

Xiao Chengwen continued: "When my father said 'Qianli Ju', it attracted all kinds of suspicions from everyone in the court. The queen mother might as well guess, has the father ever regretted it? Or, when the third brother succeeds in disaster relief and returns to Beijing, how should his father reward him? With his father's stingy temper, will he make a name? ”

Queen Tao was speechless, frowning, and her face was gloomy.

"You mean, it's possible for your father to unload the mill and kill the donkey? Back? ”

"The fate of the Tao family, the queen mother will not forget it!"

Queen Tao gritted her teeth.

What happened to the Tao family was an eternal pain in her heart, but she couldn't do it.

It's infuriating!

She gritted her teeth and said uncertainly: "Then you are the third brother, the son of your father's imperial concubine." ”

Xiao Chengwen said in a calm tone, "For the sake of imperial power, wives and children can be killed!" ”

The words were very light, but they made people chill, as if there was a killing intent rushing to their faces.

Queen Tao couldn't help but shudder.

She stared at Xiao Chengwen and suddenly said, "Your temper is like that of your father." ”

There is no conscience!

Xiao Chengwen was noncommittal.

He doesn't care about what others think of him, he is one of the few princes who lives extremely selfishly.

Sick seedlings are his best protective shield.

No matter how willful and ego he is, the three words of sick seedlings are the best excuse and reason.

Empress Tao vented a few complaints, turned her head and asked him again: "If your father and emperor don't admit it, what should the palace do?" Do you have an idea? ”

Xiao Chengwen raised his eyebrows and smiled, "The queen mother and Aunt Chengyang both hope to take the opportunity of disaster relief to implement the status of the third brother prince." For this reason, he did not hesitate to take out a large amount of food to pave the way for the third brother. However, did the queen mother ever think that maybe this was the purpose of the father.

The Shaofu and the household department have no food, and the family has food but refuses to take it out, all of which is clear to the father. What to do? took out a bait and hung it in front, no, the queen mother and Aunt Chengyang immediately took the bait and took the initiative to offer food.

With Aunt Chengyang's financial resources, not to mention saving all the victims, it is still possible to save three or four percent of the victims. And the price of all this is nothing more than a word, a bait. The queen mother, the father is the most calculating person in the world, and he is used to achieving the greatest goal at the lowest cost.

Back then, the Tao family helped his father kill the princes and kings, not because his father threw out a big enough bait to lure the Tao family to be pawns. Afterwards, he unloaded the mill and killed the donkey! The lessons of the previous car are not far away, how can the queen mother be fooled a second time. It shouldn't be! ”

Empress Tao was furious when she heard this, "You shouldn't accuse this palace now, but what were you doing in the first place?" You hide in the house, don't go out, don't say anything. Are you proud to be an afterthought now? ”

"During that time, did the queen mother send someone to ask me? The third brother wants to go out of Beijing for disaster relief, has the queen mother asked my opinion? It's because you can't resist the temptation, and a mere sentence of 'a thousand miles of horses' will make you lose your mind, give up most of your floating wealth, and share your father's worries. Hehe, it's a pity, my father only thinks you are a group of greedy people, and there is only disgust in my heart, and I am not half grateful. There is no intention of rewarding meritorious deeds after the fact. ”

Xiao Chengwen was sarcastic and thorny, spraying Queen Tao to the point that her face was gone.

Empress Tao was furious, but did not have a seizure.

Her face was gloomy, and she asked, "Is all this really the bait released by your father?" ”

Xiao Chengwen sighed, "The queen mother thinks about it carefully, what did my father do when he induced the Tao family to kill the princes and kings?" Then compare this time, what did the father do in order to let the Tao family let Aunt Chengyang provide food for disaster relief? Twice, isn't it the same means, similar rhetoric? They all promise heavy profits to induce you to share his worries without hesitation. Suffer two losses twice, you really shouldn't be! ”

Empress Tao's face turned pale, pondered carefully, and said, "It's different!" With Cheng Yang's participation this time, your father can't be so ruthless. ”

Xiao Chengwen smiled contemptuously, "Last time, I killed the princes and kings, and I was destined to bear the infamy of the world. The Tao family is enough! This time, to save the world, the strength of the Tao family is too weak to bear such a heavy responsibility. As everyone knows, Chengyang is rich. For the sake of the country, the father calculated Chengyang, which is too natural. Afterwards, do you want to fulfill the promise of 'Thousand Miles of Horses', does the queen mother think that her father will? ”

Queen Tao was originally very sure that as long as the third child successfully relieved the disaster and returned to the capital, the title of the prince would be a certainty.

But after Xiao Chengwen's analysis, she began to doubt the emperor's intentions and credit.

The emperor has a criminal record.

The Tao family is a living example.

Her face turned pale and she asked, "Are you sure your father will not reward your third brother?" ”

"Reward, will definitely be rewarded! Rewarding gold, silver and jade, rewarding the emperor's village, rewarding official positions, and even titles are all rewards. Why did the queen mother think that her father would definitely reward the third brother with the position of prince? ”

yes, why?

But if she didn't reward the position of the prince, wouldn't it be a joke for her to work so hard to find a way to raise food for disaster relief.

With an empty word, let Tao Hua and Chengyang take out tens of thousands of loads of grain.

What kind of spirit is this?

This is the spirit of selfless dedication.

Bang!

Queen Tao picked up the teacup and smashed it directly on the ground.

The teacup was shattered into pieces, just like Queen Tao's heart, which had already been shattered into slag and could no longer heal.

Xiao Chengwen comforted softly: "Why should the queen mother be angry!" It is impossible for things in the world to always develop according to the plan of the emperor. Plan ahead! ”

Empress Tao said sharply: "If your father and emperor refuse to fulfill their promise in the end, this palace will not hesitate to tear his face." When the whole world was against him and refused to give food for disaster relief, it was the palace that shouldered the burden, raised food, and shared his worries. He can't be so ruthless, let alone cross the river and tear down the bridge. ”

Xiao Chengwen said coldly: "My son said that for the sake of imperial power, relatives can also be killed!" ”

The word 'kill' seems to have the power of ten thousand arrows piercing the heart, and Queen Tao's heart hurts sharply.

She covered her heart and said sharply: "You are right, for the sake of imperial power, your relatives can also be killed!" ”

She gritted her teeth and silently estimated her own capital in her heart.

Nothing else.

The most critical military power is to count on his son-in-law Liu Baoping.

She said to Xiao Chengwen: "You have a good relationship with Liu Juma, and you have time to contact him more and explore his thoughts." ”

Xiao Chengwen seemed to smile, "Don't forget the queen mother, the soldiers of the Liu family are far away in Liangzhou. ”

Empress Tao sneered, "The northwest is still drought!" As long as the grain does not reach the northwest, what do you say will happen to the northwest? ”

Oh!

Have you finally made up your mind?

Xiao Chengwen lowered his head and smiled mockingly.

"I understand what the queen mother means. I'll have a good talk with Liu Baoping. ”

"So good! You tell him that this palace will never treat the Liu family badly. His sister-in-law is about to go to Beijing to get married, and if he wants, the palace can give a marriage decree. ”

"Don't bother. At the time of the wedding, the queen mother sent Mei Shaojian to send a generous gift to the door, which was enough! ”

"Just do what you want!"

Empress Tao made up her mind.

Xiao Chengwen also achieved his goal, was satisfied, and took his wife and daughter out of the palace and returned home.

For dinner, for the first time, he ate a bowl and a half of rice, which made Grandpa Fei dance excitedly.

Xiao Chengwen scolded him: "Reserved! ”

He couldn't hide his excitement.
