Chapter 19: Love and Jealousy (3)

Seeing that the emperor came to his dormitory but left without staying overnight, the Li family was really resentful. However, she still smiled and drank the wine in the cup, and waved her hand to signal the attendants to remove the glass.

Seeing everyone leaving, Huan Dan brought a cup of tea to the Li family, and said puzzledly: "Madam, if you keep more, Your Majesty will definitely be able to stay with us tonight." ”

Li didn't pay attention to Huandan's words, got up and walked slowly to the bronze mirror, looked at himself in the mirror, and said: "Huandan, as the saying goes, 'serve people with color, and love relaxation with color decay'." Today, even if I keep His Majesty, it will be difficult to keep his heart. What I want to do now is no longer His Majesty's favorite concubine, but the mother of the future prince, so that I can never lose power. ”

Huan Dan exclaimed: "Madam, the mother of the future prince can only be the queen, you..."

Li sneered and said, "The Feng family relies on the Empress Dowager, and they are extremely favored. Now that the Empress Dowager has passed away, there is no one to protect her Feng. The queen is more than smart, but the city is insufficient. I'd like to see how long she can stay on this throne. After a pause, he said: "Among the three ladies, although Luo is from a famous family, he is cowardly by nature, and Yuan is a smart person, but he has no family background, so neither of them is to be afraid." ”

Huan Dan said: "Madam, you are reasonable, my dynasty has always been the death of the noble mother, the mother of the prince was given death by His Majesty, raised under the knees of the first empress dowager, and now the first empress dowager has been alive for nearly three years, but His Majesty has not raised the prince under the queen's knees, this is really a great opportunity for you." Li gently plucked the golden step on his bun and said: "Now that Your Majesty favors that beauty, I will be good to her, so that Your Majesty knows that I take care of the overall situation and am a model for the harem." ”

Huan Dan responded to the "Mrs. Vision" and removed the hair ornament for the Li family.

Li Shi said again: "It's good to look at Concubine Zheng and Concubine Gao, and the two of them are our bargaining chips in their abdomen." ”

This night, Li slept very comfortably, as if all the desires in her heart were fulfilled by her.

On a full moon night, the bright moonlight fills the silent Miyagi.

Tuoba Hong sat opposite Tuoba Cheng, the king of Rencheng who had just come from Pingcheng.

I only heard Tuoba Hong say: "Uncle Huang has worked hard all the way, and he should have been summoned again tomorrow, but there is no room for delay, I only have Uncle Huang who works hard." ”

Tuoba Cheng hurriedly said: "Your Majesty's love, why do the ministers work hard, and if Your Majesty has any urgent matters, please tell the ministers." ”

Tuoba Hong smiled and said: "Although I am commensurate with Uncle Huang, in fact, I am like a father and son and a confidant, and in this Manchu Dynasty, Uncle Huang is the most credible person I have." ”

Tuoba Cheng hurriedly got up and saluted, and said: "The minister bows to thank Your Majesty for your kindness, and the minister has nothing to repay Your Majesty's kindness, and swears allegiance to Your Majesty." ”

Tuoba Hong personally helped Tuoba Cheng up, pulled him to sit down with him, and said, "Uncle Huang, you and I here, there is no need to be polite." Tonight, I just want to discuss family matters with Uncle Huang. ”

Tuoba Cheng was puzzled in his heart, only to hear Tuoba Hong continue: "Before I moved the capital, I discussed with the emperor's uncle, and when the relocation of the capital is completed, I will carry out the reform of sinicization. Now the Luoyang Palace has been repaired and built for nearly half a year, and the Duke of Longxi said with me that he can enter the new palace before the mang. Before I want to return to Luoyang, I will first carry out the Sinicization of my Xianbei surname, and cut off the thoughts of those old nobles in Pingcheng. What does Uncle Huang think? ”

Tuoba Cheng listened, frowned, and said for a moment: "Your Majesty, those old nobles in Pingcheng occasionally oppose the southward migration, and the ministers know their own reason. Now that His Majesty wants them to change their surnames, I'm afraid that there will be another uproar. ”

Tuoba Hong's expression also became serious, and he said angrily: "This world is dominated by Han people, and most of this money and grain is from Han land. They are so stubborn, they want to cut off the fortunes of our Great Wei country! ”

Tuoba Cheng saw that Tuoba Hong was like this, and he didn't dare to mention the old nobles of Pingcheng again, so he said: "Then Your Majesty does you have a suitable surname for my Tuoba family?" ”

Tuoba Hong nodded slightly, and said in a slower tone: "In the new capital, the new policy, everything starts from the new, it is for the yuan!" Therefore, I plan 'Yuan' to be my surname of the royal family, I don't know what the emperor's uncle wants? ”

Tuoba Cheng thought for a moment, and then said with a firm gaze: "Chen Yuancheng, thank Your Majesty for your grace for the children of the clan." ”

Yuan Hong heard it well and praised: "If everyone in the clan is like the emperor's uncle, I can carry out the Han Revolution." ”

Yuan Cheng said with a smile: "The minister remembers that when the Empress Dowager was alive, she called Her Majesty as 'Yuan Lang', Your Majesty is the eldest of all brothers, the first emperor is gone, and Your Majesty treats them as brothers and fathers, and can set an example for brothers and brothers in the world." Now that 'Yuan' has been changed to the surname of the royal family, it has also responded to the name of His Majesty, and the Empress Dowager has a spirit in the sky, and she must be gratified. ”

Yuan Hong laughed and said, "Uncle Huang's words are the same as those of one person. ”

Yuan Cheng smiled and asked, "Oh? Who thinks the same thing as the minister? ”

Yuan Hong took a sip of tea and said, "It's my treasure." So he knew the ins and outs of He in Yuancheng.

Yuan Cheng listened to Yuan Hong's slow words, nodded slightly from time to time, and when Yuan Hong finished speaking, Yuan Cheng asked, "Then what does Your Majesty want now?" ”

Yuan Hong said word by word: "I want to raise my son under her knees." ”

Yuan Cheng was stunned, but Yuan Hong's expression was extremely firm, he hesitated for a moment, and said: "It is said that the emperor is ruthless, but Your Majesty is a person who values love and righteousness. His Majesty wants to protect his beloved, but he is actually pushing her to the forefront. ”

Yuan Hong raised his eyes to look at Yuan Cheng and motioned for him to continue, and Yuan Cheng continued: "Most of the people in the palace are the daughters of the gate valve families, and they are connected to the previous dynasty. This beauty has no family background, and has just entered the inner palace, if Your Majesty rashly raises the prince under her knees, it will make everyone in the harem enemies with her, even if Your Majesty has the grace, it is also difficult to guard against secret arrows. Don't say how beautiful people are, they are princes, and the ministers are also afraid of being implicated by them. ”

Yuan Hong heard Yuan Cheng say this, but he was powerless to refute, and Yuan Cheng saw the affairs of the harem so thoroughly that he couldn't help but look solemn. Seeing this, Yuan Cheng retracted slightly, and said: "Since Your Majesty has a heart-to-heart relationship with the minister, the minister has the courage to speak out, and Your Majesty forgives the sin." ”

Yuan Hong's expression gradually softened, and said: "Uncle Huang, but it doesn't hurt to say, I am a person from the authorities, and the so-called concern is chaotic, I am willing to listen to Uncle Huang's words." ”

Yuan Cheng pondered for a moment and said, "If Your Majesty wants to take it, you must give it first." The one who can raise the prince in the harem must be the queen! ”

Yuan Hong was silent for a long time, and suddenly the topic changed, and said: "It's spring, and the year of the son and the spoon, I think it's time to choose a princess for him." ”

Yuan Cheng understood in his heart that the emperor must have a countermeasure in his heart, so he said: "The crown princess is the future mother of my Great Wei, and it is related to the national fortune of my Great Wei, so she should be carefully selected." ”

Yuan Hong took a sip of tea and said, "If I give the position of the crown princess to the daughter of the Feng family or the Li family, what does the imperial uncle think the prince and the Duke of Longxi should do?" ”

Yuan Cheng pondered for a moment, and suddenly realized: "Your Majesty is looking for a family to protect this beauty!" ”
