Chapter 196

Chang'en Palace is known for its gorgeousness, and Concubine Li is a person from the Western Regions, and she doesn't like plain porcelain and the like, so most of the furnishings are corals and gems, which are dazzling, and as soon as she comes in, the prince frowned. The impression of the emperor's taste is not like this.

There are only two people in the huge palace, strictly speaking, there are three people, but Gonggong Cao is standing aside, like the original furnishings in this palace, making people almost forget his existence.

The crown prince was about to salute, and the emperor waved his hand, "No need for this." The prince was silent and straightened up.

On several cases was a freshly written letter, the ink had not yet dried, and there were four big characters on it - "Never say never".

The crown prince couldn't help but sneer.

"Never give up." The emperor read it lightly, but without looking up, he asked, "Do you understand now?" ”

"I don't understand. Does the emperor regret writing these four words back then? The prince couldn't help but ask.

"When I wrote it, I understood, and your mother understood, and now you also understand! There is nothing eternal in this world, there is no prince who will never give up, only a prince who cannot be abolished. In the future, you should also keep this in mind when you are the king. ”

The prince looked at the emperor with some complexity, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

The emperor raised his head and looked at him, and the heroic and upright son in front of him, familiar and strange, proud and cold, sighed, "You are so in and out of place, and you act so decisively, your queen mother will definitely be happy to see it." ”

"The queen mother? The emperor thought that my mother was sunk under the cold pool, and her body was crushed by the nine-story demon tower, if she had a spirit underground, could she still be happy? ”

The emperor let out a soft "oh", "So you already knew!" When did you find out? Thirteen? I remember that you weren't called Father Emperor since that year. ”

The prince's heart seemed to have been stung by a scorpion suddenly, and it contracted violently. Indeed, after he learned about his mother that year, he changed his name to the emperor on the grounds that he had entered the military department and was no different from other courtiers. I thought he didn't care about these things, but it turned out that he remembered and cared about it in his heart.

"Why?" The prince's voice was full of bitterness, and his throat seemed to have a blade cut through it. He didn't want to ask, but he didn't want to ask.

"It's an adult business." After the emperor finished speaking, he also smiled, "Of course, you are not a child anymore." This is a matter between me and your mother, you don't understand. ”

"Yes, I don't understand, I don't understand why the emperor wants to be so mean to his wife!"

A layer of anger appeared on the emperor's face, obviously few people spoke to him directly, but then he suppressed it again, and his voice was a little old, "Your personality is a little like your mother, she is very stubborn, isn't it, Rongda?" ”

Gonggong Cao, who was suddenly named, didn't seem surprised, and naturally echoed, "Yes, the first queen is a little persistent." ”

"With your temperament, you will suffer a loss in dealing with government affairs in the future, and you have to know how to deal with those old guys. Cheng Xiang supports you, that is the meaning of the cabinet, they value your identity, but also value your character, they pay attention to following the rules, but also to fight for more power. The way of the emperor is to care about checks and balances, to care about lifting weights lightly, and to know how to dial thousands of pounds. Courtiers, you can rely on them. The emperor paused, and suddenly flipped his palm, "Turn your hands over for the clouds, cover your hands for the rain, and between the overturns, you have to grasp it firmly." When it comes to the art of the emperor, you are not as good as Que'er. ”
