On the auspicious day of the zodiac, the new emperor ascends the throne!
The era name is too Ning!
The meaning is beautiful.
The whole world celebrated, and the courtiers were greatly encouraged.
The first thing the new emperor did after ascending the throne was to canonize Empress Tao as the Queen Mother.
Immediately afterwards, he brought his wife and children into the palace and canonized Zhong Shuyun as the queen.
After that, he ordered the Ministry of Rites to discuss the temple number of the emperor.
There are thousands of troubles, internal and external troubles.
The new emperor, Emperor Taining, Xiao Chengyi, adhered to the guidelines formulated by the previous emperor and did not move anything. According to the original plan and personnel arrangements, the yamen was ordered to run errands.
On the 3729th, the first emperor was buried in the imperial mausoleum, and the temple name was Yingzong.
This temple number, with mixed reviews, hides the caution of the family officials.
The new Emperor Taining Emperor Xiao Chengyi nodded directly in agreement without any objections.
Obviously, in his heart, he also has his own evaluation of the former emperor.
The old and the new alternated, passed smoothly, and barely came to an end.
Life goes on!
The eldest prince Xiao Chengye, no, it should be Xiao Chengye, a member of the clan now, who has been having a hard time recently.
Everyone knows that he offended the new emperor, and he didn't get to the point where everyone fell into the ground, but he was also struggling.
His errand in the court was still preserved, and although the new emperor did not give him a knighthood, he did not exterminate him.
However, because of the attitude of the new emperor, his errand in the yamen, hey, don't talk about it.
He simply didn't go to the yamen on an errand, he didn't feel idle, and stayed in the house all day long to drink alcohol.
Li Huanting looked at him like this, very worried.
She whispered to persuade, "Or I will beg someone, you kowtow to Your Majesty to admit your mistakes, and ask Your Majesty to forgive you." ”
"Why should I kowtow to him and intercede? I am the eldest son, I am the eldest brother. ”
Xiao Chengye questioned sharply, his eyes were red, like a gambler with red eyes.
Li Huanting frowned and reminded him: "The status of the monarch and the minister has been decided, you were brothers before, and now you are the monarch and minister." He is a king, you are a minister, and in this situation, if you refuse to bow your head, life will only be more difficult. ”
After a pause, she whispered again, "Today, the eunuch went to the second mansion and canonized Xiao Chengwen as the prince, and the title 'Ping' is Prince Ping." Your other brothers have also won knighthoods, and the most recent one is also a Fengguo general. Even the sixth child born by Concubine Jia Shu also got a knighthood. Among the brothers, you are the only one who has no title. It is clear that His Majesty is waiting for you to bow your head and confess your sins. ”
"I'm not guilty, so why should I confess?"
Xiao Chengye roared angrily, still unwilling, and lifted the wine jug again and smashed it to a pulp.
Li Huanting was taken aback, frowning slightly, slightly dissatisfied.
She took a deep breath, "You are shouting and shouting at home, you are not convinced, and you are unwilling, it is useless." He can't see! Even if he sees it, he will only laugh at you. Now that you think about it, you were out of the game a few years ago. Otherwise, why did the emperor refuse to canonize his mother-in-law for a long time? ”
"Shut up!"
Xiao Chengye wanted to kill someone.
The biological mother was obviously the original wife of the father, but because she died early, she could not get any canonization.
So that he, the eldest prince, is not embarrassed, not embarrassed, not concubine.
This is the biggest pain in his heart and his taboo.
He didn't expect that Li Huanting would have the courage to reveal his scars.
"You deserve to mention my mother, too?" Xiao Chengye pressed forward step by step.
Li Huanting stepped back step by step, "Before marrying you, I have to call your mother aunt." After marrying you, I should call my mother-in-law. What's wrong? ”
yes, what's wrong?
"Tell you to shut up, can't you hear?"
Xiao Chengye was irritable and roared, first a desperate trapped beast.
Li Huanting looked at him like this, and suddenly felt that he was so pitiful.
He never got what he wanted, and he couldn't even win the title of his biological mother.
She bowed her head and muttered to herself, "If the emperor wakes up on his deathbed, do you think he will give an explanation to his mother-in-law?" ”
When Xiao Chengye heard this, he hugged his head and cried, unable to help himself.
"Ah......h
He roared and screamed, venting his inner pain.
Li Huanting followed with red eyes, squatted down, hugged his head, and hugged him into her arms.
She gently patted him on the back of the shoulder and comforted him, "There is no endless road, everything will be fine." ”
Xiao Chengye wailed and cried, with a lot of snot and tears.
He snuggled in Li Huanting's arms and cried like a two-hundred-pound child.
At this moment, his vulnerability, his helplessness, and his most embarrassing side are all exposed in front of his wife Li Huanting.
At this moment, he cried uncontrollably, venting the grievances and grievances that had been pent up in his heart for several years......
"What's wrong with me? Just because my mother died early, do I deserve all this? ”
He asked, crying.
This question has been buried in his heart for at least ten years, and he has wanted to ask it since he was a child, but he didn't dare to ask it.
When I grew up, I didn't dare to ask.
By now, he had no one to ask.
The only person who could answer him, was dead.
Before he died, he refused to give his mother an explanation.
Why?
Why should a wife who married a wife and an original wife suffer such treatment?
Why?
Ay......
Li Huanting sighed.
"Where is the old worthy of the new. What's more, Empress Dowager Tao contributed a lot in the years when the first emperor competed for the throne. ”
"Do you mean that my mother died early and never helped my father, so she deserves to be ignored? Do I deserve to be disliked too? ”
Xiao Chengye questioned repeatedly.
Li Huanting replied to him seriously, "That's not what I meant. I mean, the people who are alive are the most important. ”
Xiao Chengye sneered, he covered his heart, his heart hurt too much.
"I'm a living person, so why can't he see me? I was originally the eldest son, he became the emperor, but I couldn't be the eldest prince, and my identity instantly became embarrassing. Now that I think about it, I would rather that he did not claim the title of emperor and ascended the throne, and would rather still live in the palace, then I am the rightful son of the palace. ”
"Even if you are still in the palace, the emperor will not make you the prince."
Li Huanting instantly shattered Xiao Chengye's beautiful fantasy.
He looked pained, wanted to refute, opened his mouth again and again, but did not make a sound.
Li Huanting sighed, "Your Highness, the matter has come to this, let's start something." The most important thing at the moment is to resolve the conflict between you and Your Majesty, so that he can give you a knighthood. Otherwise, the brothers all have titles, but you, an idle clan, have you ever thought about what to do in the future? Not for yourself, but also for the sake of your children. ”
Xiao Chengye smiled coldly, "They said that my father never woke up before he died. Do you believe that? ”
Li Huanting nodded heavily, "I believe it!" At that time, he was already the prince, the rightful heir to the throne, and he could not lie about it. Moreover, even if the emperor wakes up, he will not change his mind and re-establish the prince.
I know you're not convinced, but you can't go against the new emperor. By doing this, you are suspecting that he was not in the right position, and that the death of the former emperor was strange, and no emperor could tolerate it.
If it weren't for the fact that he was in the palace that day, and in front of hundreds of civil and military officials, he could have ordered you to be executed. You have to be glad that he was the one who came forward to deal with you at that time, not Empress Dowager Tao. If you are the Empress Dowager Tao, I am afraid that you will not be able to come back from the palace with all your tails that day. ”
Xiao Chengye gritted his teeth.
He understood the truth, but he couldn't swallow it.
At the end of the day, he's just uneasy!
He grabbed his thighs and calmed himself down.
"Let me bow down to him, it is better to kill me."
"But you're better off living than dead now." Li Huanting can always accurately hit his pain points.
Xiao Chengye was furious, "You deliberately went against me, right?" ”
Li Huanting laughed at herself, "Poor couples mourn everything." Although we are not poor, our status and situation are even more embarrassing than that of poor couples. At this time, you can think crankily all day long, but I can't follow you to whitewash the peace and go along with your thoughts. I have to think about our children.
Bear with me and change to peace, why not. Even if you can't bear this breath, this world will force you to endure it. If you look at your errand in the Yamen, you yourself refuse to go to the Yamen, and needless to say, I can imagine how those people fell into the well and ridiculed and insulted.
You are the eldest son of the former emperor, and you are not pitiful enough to fall into this situation, not miserable enough? You keep fighting, and you get nothing but a burst of ridicule and a stubborn evaluation. You can't get angry, and you have a hard time. If you continue like this, one day, you will be driven crazy and driven to death by this world! ”
"Nope! No! I'm not going to live the way you say I am. ”
Xiao Chengye denied it again and again, showing fear on his face.
The future that Li Huanting described to him was too terrifying.
You can be poor, but you can't live without dignity.
Now, does he still have dignity to speak of?
A monstrous hatred suddenly sprung up in his heart......
"There must be another way! There is not only one way to go, kowtow and confess your sins. ”
Seeing his crazy expression, Li Huanting slapped him in the face and directly stunned him.
"You hit me?"
He couldn't believe it, he touched his face, the pain was still there, it was not an illusion.
She dared to hit him.
Who gave her guts?
It's the other way around!
He opened his mouth to scold, but unexpectedly Li Huanting was more fierce than him.
She lowered her voice and said solemnly, word by word: "I don't care what you plan to do, and I don't care how crazy your ideas are. Now you have to go into the palace to kowtow and ask for guilt, I will go and beg Yan Yunqi to ask her to help dredge up with the palace and hand you the guilty plea fold in.
In short, you can't let the emperor dislike you and suppress you all the time. Jin Wuwei can't be allowed to patrol outside the door every day. Whatever you do, the first thing you have to do is get others to let their guard down on you. You are already the eldest and not small, don't be willful anymore, calm down, do things like a man, can you bend and stretch, okay? ”
Xiao Chengye continued to be confused.
His hand was still on his face, and he couldn't come back to his senses.
Is this what Wan Ting would say?
She was a gentle and virtuous woman, how could she say this.
Li Huanting glanced at him coldly, obviously knowing what he was thinking.
She laughed at herself, "Any woman in my situation will be forced to change." ”
Is that so?
Is he such a scumbag?
