Chapter 748: The Prince
After Qing Cang heard what he said, he finally figured out the twists and turns, and he was secretly frightened, this emperor's move is not good, even if Li Moxuan is not the emperor, he is the national teacher of Liguo, he killed people like this, and then the lord of the country will still find an excuse to send troops, for a while, he is really not sure what the reason for the emperor to send someone to assassinate him.
Shang Jingcheng saw his frightened look, so he chuckled and said: "Father just thinks that his daughter-in-law is going to be snatched away, and wants to help me snatch people back, he, he really thinks I like that Princess Yuji, in fact, with Yao'er, how can I look at other people anymore, in this world, no one can make me love so deeply." ”
Seeing that he was affectionate, Qing Cang couldn't help but quip: "Then the future master really doesn't plan to accept the harem?" "Even if he doesn't want to accept it, the minister in the court won't accept it.
Shang Jingcheng glared at him and said, "That's for sure, don't you say I'm paving the way for the future?" With the matter of the eldest princess now, even if those ministers want to force me to accept the harem in the future, they will have to think about it. ”
When Qing Cang heard this, he didn't dare to ask too much, when he took the white son and wanted to fall, he found that the game had already been decided, and he would lose no matter where he fell, he could only sigh, and put the child in a corner at will, just waiting for his master to solve himself.
Shang Jingcheng hooked the corners of his lips, glanced at him, and slowly dropped a chess piece, and said loudly: "General! Hahaha, Qingcang, come on, let's do another game. ”
Qing Cang spoke a little helplessly: "Master, every time you play chess, you are not your opponent, what's the point of playing chess like this?" ”
"It's interesting, it's especially interesting to see your expression of not admitting defeat, hahaha." Shang Jingcheng set up the chessboard and motioned for him to continue with his eyes, but Qing Cang could only start again with his head down.
At this time, a person hurriedly walked in from outside, Shang Jingcheng looked over, and when he saw that it was Li Dehai, his expression sank.
"Five princes, the emperor invited the five princes to the study for a gathering." Li Dehai said respectfully.
Shang Jingcheng casually threw the chess pieces in his hand into the chess box, "Qingcang, clean up here." After speaking, he left with this Li Dehai.
When Qing Cang heard this, he immediately dispersed the chess game, and then put away the chess pieces, and then quickly followed, the emperor was looking for the five princes, is it for the sake of the Liguo national teacher and the eldest princess leaving Kyoto?
Shang Jingcheng followed Li Dehai to the emperor's study, and saw that the emperor was sitting on the Taishi chair with a depressed face, as soon as he saw Shang Jingcheng coming, he immediately stood up, pulled him in, and then waved his sleeves to let Gonggong Li retreat.
"Father, why are you in such a hurry?" It was the first time Shang Jingcheng had seen the emperor pull himself so anxiously.
The emperor let go of his hand and said in a deep voice: "Cheng'er, do you know that the eldest princess actually returned to China with the national teacher of Nali Kingdom?" His tone was serious.
Shang Jingcheng nodded and said, "Of course I know, it's still Erchen who asked them to leave quickly, they have been in our Jin Kingdom for so long, what will they do if they don't leave." He thought it was a little funny when he saw the emperor's nervous appearance, but it was a little heartwarming to think that he was doing it for himself.
As soon as the emperor heard that he knew it, he was stunned for a moment, and then pointed at him and said, "You actually know, you know why you don't stop people, but you want to be the daughter-in-law of the side concubine, and you just let her run away?" If they return home, we will definitely have to fight this battle. ”
"Even if they don't return to China, this battle will still be fought, but father, you don't have to worry, this battle can't be fought." Shang Jingcheng felt that it was better to tell him some of the things he had done now, otherwise it would not be good for him to continue to send people to chase down and assassinate.
When the emperor saw that he said it easily, and that he could not fight this battle, he had some doubts in his heart, and then asked, "Are you sure you can't fight?" ”
"Of course it's confirmed, the Emperor of Nali has signed a ten-year peace treaty with me, and this battle will not be fought." Shang Jingcheng looked at the emperor with a smile on his face.
The emperor asked in surprise: "Are you sure it is a peace treaty signed with the Emperor of Liguo, but isn't this Emperor of Liguo in Liguo?" How could he come and sign a treaty with you in such a short time, isn't this nonsense! "He's not going to be fooled by him.
Shang Jingcheng said helplessly: "Father, there are some things you don't know, the national teacher of Liguo, in fact, is the emperor of Liguo pretending, he is good, he has deceived the people of the world with a different identity, and the means are extremely high!" "Thinking about it, with his means, the eldest princess Yuji will definitely be attacked by him soon, but this sister-brother relationship will be somewhat criticized.
"What the hell is going on, you can tell me in detail." The emperor was a little stunned by him, so he hurriedly urged him to tell him everything to himself.
Shang Jingcheng had to tell him all the things about the Emperor Liguo that he had found out during this period of time and the things that were dealing with him, the emperor shook his head again and again, and only after Shang Jingcheng finished speaking, he said: "I really can't imagine that this Emperor Liguo is also an infatuated species, it turns out that he is actually in love with his sister, isn't this a mess?" If they are really together, then the people of Liguo will have to talk about what to do behind their backs. ”
He really couldn't imagine that there was such a thing in this world, so now after listening to Shang Jingcheng talk about these things, he was a little depressed, Emperor Liguo agreed to sign a ten-year peace treaty for a woman, it was really unthinkable, no matter how he sent a messenger to please him, he was indifferent to it, but now it's good, just a woman is done, Cheng'er is really doing this thing!
"Father, don't talk about this matter to others first, presumably Jiang Shangshu will find trouble when the dynasty is in the morning tomorrow, and then just tell the matter of this treaty." Shang Jingcheng looked at the emperor and said, "The treaty is here, my father can rest assured." ”
The emperor nodded again and again, and he grinned: "Oh, I also sent someone to stop the national teacher and the eldest princess, and wanted to kill these two people secretly, so that even if the emperor asks for it in the future, there is no evidence, and this battle will not be fought, but I didn't expect that I, Cheng'er, would solve this matter first." ”
"Father is confused, do you think that if you kill people, then Liguo will not fight? Think about it, even if it's really just a national teacher, Emperor Liguo found out that this person died in the territory of the Jin Kingdom, and he can still let us go, although our current strength can be regarded as being able to compete with it, but more is better than less, and we should rest and recuperate now. Shang Jingcheng said with a straight face.
When the emperor heard this, he said with some shame: "At that time, I only thought that it was your daughter-in-law, and I couldn't run away with others, and I really didn't think too much, so what can I do now?" I'm afraid the killers are all on the move. He is starting to regret it now, fortunately, those killers he also asked Gonggong Li to go out of the palace to find the people, and he didn't dare to find the secret guards in this palace, for fear that the people of Nali Kingdom would see the clues.
Shang Jingcheng looked at him and hooked his lips and said with a smile: "Father, don't worry, those killers Qingcang have been solved for you, they went back like this, how can they be safe, I don't send someone to escort them, if they really let them die in the territory of the Jin Kingdom, then this agreement can only be invalidated." ”
The emperor listened to the worry in his heart and fell, he nodded again and again and said, "Cheng'er has done a good job this time, my father is pleased!" "A few days ago, he always felt that Cheng'er was too ignorant, not focusing on the country, and patronizing his children's private affairs, but now it seems that all this is in his plan, it seems that he has seen the country away, his son, is fine!
Shang Jingcheng hurriedly hugged his fists and saluted him and said, "Father has won the award, these are what children should do." ”
"Well, this time the matter is over, it seems that I should also canonize you as the crown prince!" He is old, and he will definitely abdicate in a short time, and besides, his current body is also unbearable to deal with official business, although Cheng'er also helped deal with half of it, but he is old after all, and it should be time for this son to pass it on.
Shang Jingcheng was slightly surprised, he didn't expect the emperor to mention this matter, originally he thought that now his identity, it doesn't matter whether he is the crown prince or not, as long as he does his duty, but now when he heard the emperor say that he would be crowned the prince, he felt a heavy burden in his heart.
He looked at the emperor's white hair on his temples, and looked at his face that had become even thinner and older since he unraveled the Gu, and his heart was somewhat depressed, "Son Chengquan listens to his father's arrangement." "There are some burdens, and it should be his next time, when he becomes the prince, many things will be famous, and it is logical to help deal with official affairs.
The emperor looked at him and nodded slightly, his face full of relief.
Shang Jingcheng left the emperor's study, he thought about it, he didn't go back to Moxuan Palace, but went to the queen's Chaoyang Palace, he wanted to meet the queen, these days, he was busy with military exercises, and he didn't have time to come to see him, and he really didn't fulfill his son's duty.
When he came to the courtyard of Chaoyang Palace, he saw that the palace maid guarding outside wanted to go in to report, but he stopped him with his hand, he strode in, and then he heard a burst of laughter, yes, Yimeng and Xie Yunyi, they laughed so happily, here in the queen, they seem to be carefree, they are indeed happy.
He walked inside again, and saw Xie Chuyao sitting on the release bench in the courtyard, while Xie Yunyi and Ah Yimeng were sitting on the side with the queen, and they didn't know what they were looking at, and they were smiling very happily.
Qingying stood beside Xie Chuyao, and the protective posture made him feel very relieved.
Xie Chuyao heard the footsteps, turned to look over, and found that it was him, so he showed a real smile to him and said, "Ah Cheng, you are here!" ”
