Chapter 97: The Old Fox

Excuse me, brother, why is that? ”

"Because the emperor doesn't want to make your son the prince, you should already know this answer in your heart, why don't I say more."

Ye Tianqing sat down, took a sip of tea, regained his original idle expression, and smiled faintly.

Seeing that Xi Qinglian's heart was in turmoil, his eyes kept fluctuating, he understood that he had given Xi Qinglian a heavy blow, in front of him, Xi Qinglian had nothing to rely on, and the initiative finally fell completely into his hands.

"Ruoxi, even though you have changed a lot, you are very similar to your mother's eccentric, and you remind me of your mother even more. You may have changed too much, but in the eyes of my father, you have always been my daughter, the only daughter I love the most. ”

Ye Tianqing smiled bitterly, it should have been after Ye Ruoxi came back that time, he found out, but he was unwilling to pursue it. Because those eyes were too much like his wife, and those eyes were as clear and pure as before.

"What about change? Maybe this is the best gift she's ever given me, and this time I'm not going to let anyone hurt her, my Ruoxi! ”

The anger has been hidden in his heart for a long time, and on the night Ye Ruoxi returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion, the anger in his heart had reached its peak, and it was difficult to suppress it anymore.

He has tried his best to let Xi Qinglian have more power and let the little prince be made the prince. However, Xi Qinglian's actions touched his bottom line.

Not only because Xi Qinglian moved Ye Ruoxi, but also because Xi Qinglian wanted to break away from him and go farther and farther. That result is not what he wants, he likes to control everything in his hands, rather than handing over the initiative to others, especially this person is Xi Qinglian.

The matter of the Charm Hall made Ye Tianqing really no longer have hope for Xi Qinglian, and understood that Xi Qinglian had already been secretly arranged, wanting to get out of his control step by step, and finally no longer needed him, no longer needed the Xi family, but ran her own forces.

That was something that Ye Tianqing absolutely could not allow and see.

Ye Ruoxi's proposal made Ye Tianqing see a better or best choice, a mentally handicapped prince, rightly the emperor's prince.

A stupid concubine, although she is not stupid now, is his daughter after all, and she is not as ambitious and ruthless as Xi Qinglian.

"Brother, I know you have more choices, but if a person as wise as my brother is, he will definitely choose the best. Rights and interests, who else can have more power than I have given you, and more power than to assist a young master? After all, I am your sister, and my son is your nephew. The other princes are all adults, and several of them are quite successful and not easy to deal with. ”

"These, you don't have to worry about the queen."

"Brother, are you going to overturn the plan that has been planned for many years just for a little thing, and don't consider you or the Xi family?"

"It is for this reason that I am considering, the matter of the Charm Palace,

How do you explain this to me? moved Ruoxi, you said that it was to control the Yan Wangfu, what else is there to control in the Yan Wangfu? If you want to do anything, you can completely bypass Ruoxi, and she won't cause you any obstacles. ”

"And Ning Yuan, if it weren't for the divine doctor, he would have died a long time ago. Do you think that for the sake of your grand hegemony, I should lose my children and even the entire Xi family? ”

"Ning Yuan's matter, I am also very sad, this matter is an accident. Brother, you should understand that the Charm Hall never entered the Prince's Mansion to assassinate the Prince, so how did Ning Yuan get injured? As far as I know, Ning Yuan and a woman named Xianghou teamed up to eradicate the Charm Palace, and set a trap to do so. At that time, Ning Yuan was masked, and the people in the Charm Hall didn't know that it was Ning Yuan. ”

"Do these matter? The queen already has the Charm Palace, and if there is anything in the future, just let the people of the Charm Hall do it. The Charm Hall dares to hurt my beloved son, does the queen think, will I let them go? ”

"Brother, this matter is my mistake, I just used the Enchantment Hall to collect and spy on the news of all parties, and at the same time influence the court from the rivers and lakes. I manage a little bit of my own power, and my brother won't take it to heart because of this. You must know that I, the queen, is not easy to be. ”

"I can't leave the palace, so I can do something for me."

"Okay, very good, the queen is full of talents, and the ministers are useless, why should the queen succumb to this. It's time for the queen to go back to the palace, and the ministers will not send it. ”

"Big brother, do you really want to break with me, just for these little things?"

Ye Tianqing closed his eyes and didn't speak.

"Big brother, I'm at fault in this matter, I just don't want to trouble big brother in everything. As the right minister, the eldest brother has a lot of affairs, and I just want to do my best. Big brother, don't worry about it anymore, I will definitely discuss everything with my eldest brother in the future. ”

"Big brother, when I say this, can't I eliminate the anger in your heart a little, big brother? After planning for many years, the eldest brother should not give up a great opportunity for the sake of a momentary mood. Now, the emperor's dragon body is even weaker, and I am afraid that there is not much time. ”

"The queen secretly went out of the palace, and it was discovered that something was wrong, please go back."

Ye Tianqing got up: "The minister still has some things to deal with, so he won't send the queen mother." ”

"Big Brother ......"

Xi Qinglian was helpless, if she didn't have Ye Tianqing's support, she wanted to sit firmly in the position of the future queen mother and let her young son inherit the throne, it would be very difficult.

She also understood that Ye Tianqing's words were true, and the emperor had never expressed his position, and he had no intention of making her son the prince.

First, her son is too young, the lord is young, and the relatives will be autocratic, so the government and the opposition are uneasy. And it will undoubtedly be very difficult for the young lord to seize power when he becomes an adult.

Second, the Tanglin Kingdom is rich in princes, and the demon index of many princes is quite high, so the emperor does not have to worry about no one inheriting the throne.

Among the more than ten princes, there are at least ten princes who can be established as princes as adults, and several of them are talented and virtuous

Both the DPRK and China have their own supporters.

Ten adult princes, if one of them is allowed to ascend the throne, it will undoubtedly balance the power in the court, and will not be seized too much power by the Xi family.

An adult prince, with the support of the courtiers, can also hold the power in his hands without losing it to his relatives, especially the Xi family.

The emperor has to use it for the Xi family, and he can't be unguarded.

The emperor has not made a decision for a long time, and the courtiers are constantly figuring out the emperor's intentions, and the concubines and princes are all speculating about the emperor's intentions.

They also understood that the reason why the emperor did not make a decision quickly, but kept letting Xuanyuan Yan sit in the position of the crown prince was to watch, choose, and wait. Look at the attitude of the courtiers and the performance of the princes.

What awaits is to choose the most suitable prince.

However, recently, the emperor's dragon has been unwell, which has made many people's hearts anxious, and they can't wait for the emperor to immediately set up a prince. It's good that they don't have to speculate and figure out all year round.

For more than ten years, the courtiers, concubines, and princes have been tortured and crazy by the emperor of the Tanglin Kingdom.

No matter who is appointed as the prince, all of them hope that the dust will settle as soon as possible, and that they will no longer have to be tortured day and night, and they will not have to be unable to bear it when they finally fail because they have hoped for too long.

There are too many troubles for the prince, that is, it is difficult to choose a prince, and if the princes have their own support behind them, the chaos of the government and the opposition can be imagined.

Fortunately, because of Ye Tianqing's existence, the queen is Xi Qinglian, and Xi Qinglian has a young son, so the courtiers think that in the end, the position of the prince is most likely to fall on Xi Qinglian's son.

The reason why the emperor can't lack Ye Tianqing is because of this, because without Ye Tianqing, the court will inevitably be chaotic to the point of giving him a headache.

Xi Qinglian was helpless and grabbed Ye Tianqing's sleeve.

"Big brother, if you have anything to say, between our brothers and sisters, is there anything that can't be put into our hearts?"

"I'm afraid that the queen has never had such an idea, otherwise she would not have concealed it again and again and made a fuss about what is happening today. You should understand, Queen Mother, I have several sons, and you kill one and a few. You have only one son! ”

Ye Tianqing said in a cold voice, which made Xi Qinglian's delicate body tremble, and at this moment, she thought that her son was a son, and Ye Tianqing's son was also a child.

Originally, sacrificing for power was the most common thing for the royal family, not to mention that the courtiers should die for the queen and the prince for the royal family. But the difference is that Ye Tianqing is too strong, and she has to rely on the power of Ye Tianqing and the Xi family to ensure the safety of the mother and son.

"Big brother, even if something I did was wrong, you shouldn't just change your mind and give up years of planning. Little sister is stupid and can't see what better choice you have. ”

"Then you don't have to bother with the queen, minister

Own claims. ”

Ye Tianqing flicked his sleeves and was about to leave, his face was extremely cold.

Xi Qinglian was helpless, she didn't dare to put the queen's mother in front of Ye Tianqing at this moment, the emperor was sick, and most of the government was presided over by Ye Tianqing. If Ye Tianqing didn't support the little prince, she would definitely lose.

"Big brother, it's all the little sister's mistake and poor consideration, please ask the eldest brother Haihan, and the little sister will make amends to the eldest brother. Ning Yuan's matter is by no means the original intention of the little sister, the eldest brother's child is like the flesh and blood of the little sister. How can the younger sister let the eldest brother's children be in danger for her own selfishness. ”

Ye Tianqing was indifferent.

"How can the eldest brother be willing to forgive the younger sister's mistakes? Big brother, you must know that letting the eldest brother's nephew be the prince is the most beneficial to the eldest brother and the Xi family. Even if the little sister has some mistakes, won't the eldest brother refuse to forgive one or two? ”

"The queen is not sincere, and the minister doesn't want to say more."

"Does the eldest brother really want the younger sister to bow down to the eldest brother before he is willing to forgive the younger sister?"

Xi Qinglian was unwilling to be so humble in front of Ye Tianqing, when she was in the Xi family before, she just knelt down for Ye Tianqing. Now that she is the queen, how can she be willing to bow to Ye Tianqing again.

"I can't afford it."

"How can the eldest brother be willing to believe in the sincerity of the younger sister?"

"Enchanting Palace!"

Ye Tianqing replied coldly, beyond doubt.

Xi Qinglian's expression also cooled, she calculated and pondered in her heart, and for a while the study was silent, and the atmosphere was heavy and depressing.

"The queen doesn't need to worry, even if the queen mother plans in many ways, I want to destroy the Charm Palace, it's just a little more trouble. The queen mother, please go back, don't send it! ”

Ye Tianqing walked towards the door without hesitation.

"Big brother, are you really going to give up your years of plans and upcoming power for this?"

Ye Tianqing's footsteps stepped out of the door, Xi Qinglian clenched her hands, her nails pierced into her palms, looking at whether Ye Tianqing's determination was true or false, whether he wanted to use this to blackmail her, or to ask for more benefits.

"Alas......"

Xi Qinglian sighed, at this moment, she couldn't afford to lose.

"Big brother, whatever you want, my little sister agrees, big brother, please go back."

Ye Tianqing's footsteps didn't stop: "The queen mother should go back and figure it out, I'm not in a hurry." ”

"Big brother, please don't do this, little sister knows that she is wrong."

"Big brother, the Charm Palace, the little sister will hand over to the eldest brother, and all plans in the future will be subject to the arrangement of the eldest brother. In this way, may it indicate the sincerity of the little sister? ”

Ye Tianqing's footsteps paused slightly, he had already walked outside the door, squinted his eyes slightly and looked into the distance.
