An Le Hou Yuanlong looked at the crown prince Yuansui, lowered his voice, and said: "Win over the ministers, order Your Majesty to stop the new policy, and restore the old law, so that you will not be afraid of whether you are in law or not." ”

Yuan Sui was stunned, and most of the wine woke up: "How could An Le Hou make me settle in the storage position, this is obviously to make Aya depose me as soon as possible!" ”

Yuan Long saw that Yuan Sui had a displeased look on his face, and hurriedly said carefully: "The minister and the prince are close friends, how can it make the prince lose?" The new policy pushes the Han Revolution, if Zuo Zhaoyi really ascends the throne, then King Changshan is undoubtedly his son-in-law. With the courage of King Changshan to fornicate with the prince and concubine, how could he not covet the storage position? ”

Speaking of this, Yuan Long stopped speaking, and when he saw Yuan Sui hanging his head and not saying a word, he knew that he was worried in his heart.

Dozens of flicks of his fingers past, Yuan Sui looked up at Yuan Long, and said: "I just thought about it carefully, although Aya prefers that Zuo Zhaoyi, he only hands over the power to govern the palace to Right Zhaoyi." According to what you said, as long as I join hands with Right Zhaoyi and help him ascend to the throne, won't I be safe? ”

Zuo Zhaoyi ascended the throne or Yuan Long didn't care about it, only this right Zhaoyi Li family had his father Li Chong as his back, with Li Chong's position in the court, if the prince really joined forces with the Li family, Yuan Long would no longer have a chance to control Yuan Sui. How could Yuanlong be such a shrewd person as a paving the way for others to build bridges?

Thinking of this, Yuan Long said: "The prince's words are also reasonable, only there are seven princes under the knees of Zhaoyi, even if he ascends the throne, he may not be able to be of the same mind as the prince..."

Before Yuan Long could speak, Yuan Sui was already quite impatient and said: "You are not this, that is not good, then what good plan do you have, but it is from me to know." ”

Yuan Long arched his hand and said: "The prince has ever thought that the prince and Feng Situ are in the world, and this Han family will respect the Duke of Longxi." Now His Majesty relies on Hanchen, and the Duke of Longxi is in full swing, if the prince joins forces with Right Zhaoyi again, then the Duke of Longxi may be the next Liang Bozhuo. ”

This Liang Bozhuo is Liang Ji, a relative of the Eastern Han Dynasty, because his sister was the empress of Emperor Shun of the Han Dynasty, and was promoted to the rank of auxiliary general. Emperor Shun died, and Emperor Li was established. Because Emperor Qin called Liang Ji "General Bahu" in person, he was killed by Liang Ji the following year. Since then, Liang Ji has become more unscrupulous, dictating power, forming parties for personal gain, and causing disaster to the dynasty.

Although Yuan Sui is good at martial arts and tired of literature, he also knows this history because of the teaching and practice of Taishi and Taifu for many years. Hearing Yuan Long's words, Yuan Sui's heart tightened, and he muttered, "What should I do?" How is it good? ”

Seeing this, Yuan Long was proud. Approaching Yuan Sui, he said carefully: "The prince can only hold great power if he gathers the military power in his own hands." At that time, even if His Majesty intends to abolish the reserve, he will not be able to do so. ”

Yuan Sui shook his head and said quietly: "Sixty percent of the soldiers and horses in the world are in the hands of Aya himself, one percent is in the hands of King Rencheng, one percent is in the hands of King Xianyang, and the remaining two percent are controlled by the eight sect leaders... Although I am the crown prince, I am only in vain. ”

The corners of Yuan Long's mouth raised slightly, and he said, "Definitely!" The prince didn't know, His Majesty has reused Hanchen over the years, and the power of our clan relatives has fallen, and the eight clansmen have already complained, but our Xianbei people care about friendship, so they have not endured. His Majesty is bent on going his own way, and has lost the heart of the clansmen, if the prince is willing to do the right thing for heaven and restore the old system, he will definitely be able to make the eight clansmen return to the prince. ”

Seeing that Yuan Sui was silent, Yuan Long then said: "Does the prince still remember Guanzhonghou?" He was just serving wine and food, dancing to the prince, and was imprisoned in the stone room by His Majesty... This time, the prince and the king of Changshan are brothers, if the prince holds the power of the army, how can the king of Changshan despise the prince so much? How could Your Majesty mention the dethronement again? ”

Yuan Long's words gradually entered Yuan Sui's heart, raised the sea bowl, drank it all in one gulp, and Yuan Sui said: "I am the emperor's great-grandmother who appointed the crown prince, but I have been repeatedly excluded and humiliated in the palace. Now I finally have to come to help, such as Ganlin, I am a bone inscription. ”

Holding the wine jar with his own hands and pouring wine for himself and Yuan Long, Yuan Sui continued: "If it weren't for the benefits of An Le Hou Xiao, I would still be obsessed and be a sheep to be slaughtered." ”

Raising the sea bowl, Yuan Sui then said: "I respect An Lehou!" From now on, I will take you as my military advisor, and I will guide you in everything, and when I ascend to the great treasure in the coming day, I will promote you to be king. ”

Yuan Long was secretly happy when he heard this, raised his bowl and drank the wine in one gulp, knelt on the ground again, and kowtowed: "The minister is the prince of Long's grace and can get the king's way, and the minister will spare no effort to assist the prince wholeheartedly!" ”

When Yuan Sui woke up, it was almost the beginning of the day. Yuan Sui opened his lazy eyes, stretched his waist, and yawned while getting off the bed. Cheng Liang, a close attendant, heard the sound of the inner hall, and hurriedly led a group of attendants into the room to serve Yuan Sui to wash and change clothes.

Yuan Sui looked around, disappeared Yuan Long, and said suspiciously: "Where is An Lehou?" ”

Cheng Liang lowered his head and said: "It's inevitable that there will be a loss, before dawn, An Lehou has already gotten up and left." ”

Seeing that Yuan Sui was silent, Cheng Liang said to Yuan Sui while serving a hot towel: "Prince, the slave has good news for the prince to know. ”

Yuan Sui disagreed, and said, "Oh? What good news, you can tell me about it. ”

Cheng Liang smiled all over his face: "Prince, the right son is happy." ”

Yuan Sui couldn't believe what he heard: "How are you just right?" ”

Cheng Liang repeated: "The imperial doctor came to ask for the pulse of the right son, and the way is that the right son is happy!" ”

Before Cheng Liang could speak, Yuan Sui had already laughed: "Good, good!" Let's go, let's take a look at the right son. ”

In the side hall, Zheng Qiao, the right child, is feeding the little county lord Yuan Yao with the nurses. After the palace maids came to report, knowing that the prince was coming to the side hall, he didn't have time to get up to greet him, and Yuan Sui had already stepped inside.

Yuan Sui didn't care about teasing Yuan Yao, so he grabbed Zheng Qiao and asked, "I just heard that you are happy, but is it true?" ”

Zheng Qiao bowed slightly, and said shyly: "Back to the prince, the imperial doctor said to the concubine that the concubine has been pregnant for two months..."

Before Zheng Qiao could speak, Yuan Sui picked him up and said happily: "Sure enough, great news, I want to reward you well!" ”

When everyone in the hall saw this, they didn't dare to look at it directly, and the nurses also hugged Yuan Yao and quietly withdrew with everyone.

Carrying Zheng Qiao to the couch, Yuan Sui lightly supported his chin and said with a smile: "If you can win a man in one fell swoop this time, I will welcome you as a concubine." ”

Zheng Qiao said: "Your Majesty has chosen a concubine for the crown prince, how dare the concubine think extravagantly? ”

Yuan Sui snorted coldly and said, "Feng Ji's **, and Yuan Ke secretly communicate with each other, how can I welcome her as the wife of the concubine again?" ”

Zheng Qiao had already heard about the Yonghe Palace, and when he heard Yuan's words, he knew that his anger was still unsubsidy. Looking at Yuan Sui, Zheng Qiao said: "The prince is angry, after all, Sister Feng is the person His Majesty likes, how can the concubine compare with it?" The crown prince must not provoke the anger of the Dragon Court again because of this. ”

Because of what he planned with Yuan Long last night, Yuan Sui was secretly proud in his heart, and he felt that he could already compete with his father. After Zheng Qiao's words, Yuan Sui said with disdain: "What about Aya's intentions?" I am the prince of Great Wei, I can do whatever I want, see who dares to criticize! ”

Although Zheng Qiao was secretly happy in his heart, he felt that Yuansui's words and deeds today were different from the past. After a pause, Zheng Qiao said: "The concubine can serve the prince is a concubine, and the concubine also prays for the blessing of the Buddha and Bodhisattva in her heart, so that the concubine can give birth to the eldest son for the prince, even if the son and noble mother die in the future, it will not hesitate." ”

When Yuan Sui heard this, his heart was moved, so he blurted out: "If I ascend to the great treasure, I will make you the queen, so you don't have to worry about the death of your son and mother." ”

Looking around, Yuan Sui lowered his voice and said: "You only have peace of mind to raise the fetus, and the day you give birth to Lin'er is the time for you to ascend the throne." ”

Zheng Qiao was stunned in his heart, and said suspiciously: "What does the prince mean by this?" ”

Yuan Sui didn't have any city government, and he felt that Zheng Qiao was the person next to the pillow, so he told Yuan Long what he had planned and discussed. Zheng Qiao never thought that Yuan Sui had the heart to rebel, but he felt cold sweat and his face was discolored.

Yuan Suixing's head was hot, and he didn't notice that Zheng Qiao's face had a different color. Until Yuan Sui said that, he took Zheng Qiao's hand, and Zheng Qiao relieved his mind.

Squeezed a smile, Zheng Qiao said: "The prince treats his concubine with sincerity, and the concubine has a sense of guilt." The prince is the husband of the concubine, and the concubine should share the glory and disgrace with the prince, and life and death go hand in hand..."

Looking at Yuan Sui, Zheng Qian then said: "The concubine only has one word, I don't know if I should say it?" ”

Yuan Sui stroked Zheng Qiao's hand and said with a smile: "It's okay for you to say it." ”

Zheng Qiao thought for a moment and said, "Even if the prince has the support of his clan relatives, he is only two percent of the soldiers and horses, so how can he compete with His Majesty?" Although His Majesty has repeatedly rebuked the crown prince, he has no real intention of deposing him..."

Yuan Sui didn't have time for Zheng Qiao to say, and his face sank: "If he doesn't have the heart to dethrone, why did he mention it several times, and why did he favor Yuan Ke?" ”

Zheng Qiao hurriedly explained: "The concubine is not questioning the prince, you and I are husband and wife, one is prosperous, one is lost, and the concubine is only for the prince's long-term plan." ”

Seeing that Yuan Sui seemed to hear it, Zheng Qiao continued: "It is a good thing for the prince to have the help of An Le Hou to win over the clan relatives, and it is not an overnight thing to control the military power. Now that the crown prince is fledgling, it is imperative that he form an alliance with the person in charge of the harem, so that he can rest easy. ”

Yuan Sui was already a soft-hearted person, and when he heard Zheng Qiao's words, he also felt quite reasonable, so he said: "Then in your opinion, what should I do?" ”

Although Zheng Qiao was suspicious of the Li family because of his aunt Zheng Concubine's affairs, he was young and couldn't stand the sweet words of the Li family, and many of the Li and Zheng clans were connected by in-laws, and the father of the family also sent a letter to order him to be attached to the Li family, and now Zheng Qiao and the Li family have a very close relationship.

Yuan Sui's words were in Zheng Qiao's arms. With a shallow smile, Zheng Qiao said: "Now the palace is respected by the left and right Zhaoyi, but the person who holds the palace power is only right Zhaoyi, and the Duke of Longxi is relied on by His Majesty, and it is not a matter of time before the right Zhaoyi ascends the throne." If the prince joins forces with Right Zhaoyi, why is he afraid that the storage position will not be guaranteed? ”

Yuan Sui remembered Yuan Long's words last night, and hesitated: "You Zhaoyi has seven princes, how can he treat me sincerely?" ”

Zheng Qiao said with a smile: "The Seventh Prince is just a yellow-mouthed child, why is the prince afraid?" ”

Yuan Sui nodded again and again: "Right Ruzi Lan Xinhui quality, okay, then I will follow what you said, one hand An Lehou, the other hand right Zhaoyi, so you can sit back and relax!" ”
