"The villain also agrees with what Mr. Yang said, His Royal Highness is afraid that the court will lose money?"

Sun Yao chuckled, and then said, "This is easy to do, didn't the third prince intervene in the salt tax before?" Are you still afraid that you will lose money? ”

Sun Yao's words reminded the eldest prince of the previous implementation of salt introduction, which was handled by the household department. And Mao Jinyuan, the right attendant of the household department, is the third person, and the third child has made a lot of money from it.

"What if the third prince refuses to take out the silver?" Jiang Chengguan was a little unconvinced, he just couldn't get used to seeing Sun Yao Chengzhu in his chest and calm and relaxed.

"This can't be blamed by the three princes! Can we still get him to pay for the money? ”

The eldest prince nodded, "If the amount is huge, can the third elder of the father's monstrous anger withstand it?" At that time, the third child was afraid that before his father could reprimand him, he hurriedly filled the holes with the silver. ”

After speaking, the eldest prince laughed.

Sun Yao raised the corners of her mouth, picked up the tea bowl and did not speak.

"The gentlemen are really clever, and His Royal Highness doesn't want the court to suffer heavy losses, with the three princes in his pocket, I think His Royal Highness can also put his mind at ease."

Chen Simiao, a member of the ministry, hurriedly flattered these people.

The corner of the eldest prince's mouth provoked a smile, even if the third child filled in the silver, the father would know about it.

The third child folded the silver, and he had to be reprimanded by his father, which is indeed a good idea.

"You are all the brains of this palace, and it will be a lot easier with your main palace."

can fight back against the third child, the eldest prince's mood is finally better, and he will not be stingy to say a few words in the middle of the listen.

Yang Baiqi was not angry in his heart, this plan was obviously proposed by himself, but it made Sun Yao get a bargain.

This old man is really shameless, but although Yang Baiqi is angry in his heart, he doesn't dare to show any dissatisfaction.

His Highness is not a good person, and if he annoys him, he will have to reprimand himself angrily.

"It's just the second prince, Your Highness still has to be careful!" Sun Yao touched the goatee on his chin and suddenly said to the eldest prince.

The eldest prince squinted slightly, and his face was a little heavy.

"The second child is indeed not to be underestimated, Bengong and the third child have been deceived by him for so many years. I always thought that he was mediocre and inactive, not a strong opponent, and wanted him to be a shield. Who thinks that the ambition of the second child is not small, it is estimated that he has intervened in the previous things, and the second child is really hidden! ”

"Over the years, the second prince seems to be unknown, but in fact he is extremely cunning, and he has deceived His Royal Highness and the third prince." Ma Zhihong also sighed.

"It is estimated that those things before must have been the handiwork of the second prince, this one can really bear it!"

The eldest prince tugged at the corners of his mouth contemptuously, "What if the second child is capable?" He kept his head down, even if he didn't suffer losses, he secretly calculated us, but how much affection did his father have for him? It's really stupid to have the ability not to show it. ”

Then the eldest prince said mockingly: "My father can't see his ability, how can he trust him to hand over the country to him?" I don't know if his brain has been dug up. ”

The eldest prince felt that the second child really needed to be careful, but the second child was embarrassed in front of his father, and his father should not make him the prince.

was known as the second prince with a hole in his brain, and at this moment he also summoned his cronies to discuss in the study.

"Your Royal Highness, it's been these two days since the crown prince was established, and I don't know what the emperor thinks."

A black-robed staff member said to the second prince.

"Alas! My father has always valued my eldest brother, and this palace is not as good as my eldest brother in my father's heart! ”

The second prince didn't show much worry on his face when he heard this, but he sighed leisurely.

"Your Highness! The villain has already advised you, don't behave too generously, and let the eldest prince be in front of you. Now the emperor has a prejudice against you, thinking that you are not as capable as the eldest prince, how can this be good? ”

Staff member Jiao Ling felt that the second prince wanted to become the crown prince, which was really hanging.

"If the emperor really appoints other princes as crown princes, how will His Royal Highness deal with himself in the future?"

Qian Licong, the left deputy capital Yushi, was also indignant, and the position of the prince should have been inherited by his son-in-law.

The emperor didn't say anything for a long time, and he even wanted to leave his son-in-law behind, didn't this make the second prince laugh at the world?

"Not really, the villain thinks that His Highness is not without opportunities." Staff member Lu Haifang shook his head, disagreeing with Jiao Ling's opinion.

"Mr. Lu, can you tell us your opinion?" The second prince had a gentle attitude and a smile on his face.

"Your Highness is too polite, and the villain doesn't dare to be it." Lu Haifang hurriedly replied respectfully.

"We can't figure out the emperor's thoughts, but does the emperor really like the eldest prince? Although our Highness's performance is not outstanding, which of the errands assigned by the emperor has not been completed? Although His Royal Highness has taken the middle way, the villain believes that the emperor must know it. ”

Lu Haifang sat in the middle of the room and shook the folding fan in his hand, his face full of determination.

"Besides, Your Highness, you are your son-in-law, and your queen mother is the master of the Middle Palace. If the emperor doesn't make you the crown prince, how can the queen take charge of the harem again? ”

The queen's son can't become the crown prince, and the queen will be ridiculed.

If you want to be in charge of the harem again, you will definitely not be able to convince the public.

Speaking of the queen mother, the second prince's face showed a little sadness.

He smiled bitterly, "If my father still cares about my mother's friendship with him, how can I ......?"

Speaking of this, the second prince did not continue to speak, but everyone understood the unfinished meaning of the second prince.

The queen mother is the emperor's original match, and the current emperor was given a title at the age of fifteen. When she went to the bitter cold fiefdom, the queen did not dislike it and resolutely married the emperor.

It can be said that without the strong support of the Marquis Zhan Yuanfu and his in-laws in the end, it is still unknown whether the emperor can ascend the throne.

But the world has always been able to share weal and sorrow, but not wealth and prosperity.

Besides, as an emperor, it is purely normal for the harem to have three thousand beauties. How can a queen, who is already old and decrepit, compare to a young woman as delicate as a flower?

But regardless of hardship and wealth, and regardless of the hardships and sorrows, the two have been together for decades.

It stands to reason that even if there is no affection between men and women, the emperor should give this one the respect he deserves. This position of the crown prince makes no sense not to give birth to the concubine of the middle palace!

However, what the second prince was worried about was the queen's body, and his mother's body was also deteriorating.

Although he has been in charge of the harem in the past few years, his spirit has been a little weak, and he always has to stay in bed for a few months a year to recuperate.

The father wanted the queen mother to recuperate, and handed over the affairs of the harem to the eldest prince's biological mother, Concubine Jing. The queen mother disagreed, and forcibly held the phoenix seal.

He knew that the queen mother was all for himself, and originally Concubine Jing was the concubine with the highest status in the harem except for the queen mother.

If she is in charge of the phoenix seal on her behalf, then there will be no one in the harem who can compete with her?

The eldest brother is already valued by his father, and with Concubine Jing in the harem, can their mother and son still have a place to stay?
