Zhuang Jingcheng does not have a strong will for the throne, as long as he is not oppressed by the imperial power, he basically has no interest in the throne.

How boring it is to be the emperor, every day from top to bottom, to listen to those ministers chatter over a little thing, fight for a red face, and weigh the power, calculate and calculate, the key is that he has too little time for himself, and he still prefers to be with his little Hanhan.

So being the emperor, how to look at it, how is it not cost-effective.

The emperor seemed to know what he was thinking, and said lightly: "Are you worried that I am retreating and calculating you?" ”

Zhuang Jingcheng was dumbfounded, although he had this idea in his heart, it was still very embarrassing for the emperor to say it in person.

In the face of Zhuang Jingcheng's silence, the emperor did not get angry, turned to look at the pot of orchids, and said lightly: "I have been on the throne for more than 20 years, and I have encountered all kinds of things, but I have never been easy. The beloved women are leaving one by one, which is a very tiring thing. ”

"Now, I'm tired, but I can't end my life hastily and go to your mother and concubine Lan, so I plan to go to Hanshan Temple to pray for them."

"You're going to become a monk? For Concubine Lan? Zhuang Jingcheng was really surprised this time.

"This palace is very boring." The emperor finally sighed lightly and spoke.

There is nothing else but intrigue and deceit.

When Concubine Lan was there before, although he didn't be with her every day, when he thought of her, his heart was always warm, and when he came to look at her secretly, he would feel that the world was peaceful, but now, this palace where his beloved woman was buried, except for exhaustion, there was really nothing left for him anymore.

Zhuang Jingcheng really saw an expression of no attachment from the emperor this time.

He almost jumped to his feet.

No, he must not let this throne fall on him.

calmed down his breath, he said: "My father just doesn't want to continue to be the emperor, then there are other princes who can inherit it, it's not good for you to pick me directly." ”

How many people have broken their heads for the throne, and the brothers are against the wall, but now that it is to be passed on to him, he is not happy.

The emperor couldn't help but chuckle.

"Ren'er is too generous, and there are few people who can be used under him over the years, if he is in the position and is quite constrained, the people under your command will be unhappy, and then it will inevitably set off civil strife, and Kang Guo will not be at peace, and he can't afford to toss."

"Yu'er is deposed, his temperament is gloomy, if he is on the throne, the people will not have a good life, and you will not have a peaceful life."

Zhuang Jingcheng complained silently, Zhuang Jingyu would definitely not let him take the position.

"Xing'er has a cold temperament, and it is even more impossible to participate in the rebellion a few days ago."

"As for Zhen'er who is still at the border, he is straightforward and brave, he is a general, but he is not suitable for this court."

"In this way, you are the only one who is the most suitable person. If you don't be the emperor, who will? ”

The emperor looked at Zhuang Jingcheng with a smile and asked rhetorically.

Zhuang Jingcheng......

Speaking of which, it seems that he is really the most suitable.

However, I have never seen the emperor value him so much before.

Zhuang Jingcheng was a little distressed and said: "Father, you can do it for a few more years, anyway, you are still young, let me be chic for a few more years." ”

The emperor smiled, and then his eyes were a little lonely, and he said softly: "This palace is too cold, I can't stay without anyone to accompany me." ”

Since Concubine Lan left, he would dream of her almost every night, there were not many places in this palace where the footprints of the two of them were left, but it was not a few, every time he went to a place where the two of them had stayed together, he would think of her.

In the palace, it's too torturous.

Maybe he is really old, he has no attachment to power at this time, and he has become a child, and the emperor can't help but laugh at himself.

Zhuang Jingcheng saw that he had always called himself me, and it seemed that he really didn't have much attachment to this throne.

But if you don't have affection, you can't pull him into the water, he just married Su Jinhan not long ago, and the two of them haven't had enough of the world, but they don't want to live a life where every day is a minister and a twist.

And once he ascends the throne, there will definitely be a lot of troubles, thinking about the ministers who urged him to draft a draft girl, a concubine, and Zhuang Jingcheng would have a headache.

Don't say that he doesn't have this idea, I'm afraid that if Su Jinhan knows, he will be the first to refuse, and he doesn't want to be kicked out of the door at that time.

Zhuang Jingcheng narrowed his eyes and considered whether there would be a crisis if the matter of Concubine Lan not dying was exposed.

Looking at the emperor's melancholy and loveless appearance, he felt that the emperor was still a very infatuated person, so he said directly: "If my father can trust me, how about going out of the palace with me?" ”

Out of the palace? The emperor was slightly stunned.

How long has it been since he was out of the palace? He doesn't even remember it himself.

Thinking about it, he smiled suddenly, "Okay, when I change into my regular clothes, our father and son will go out of the palace for a walk." ”

The turmoil has subsided, and the emperor has no scruples, he directly changed into civilian clothes, did not alarm others, and quietly went out of the palace with Zhang Fuhai and Zhuang Jingcheng.

"It's finally out." The emperor looked back at the palace behind him, and he had a feeling that he didn't want to go back to the cage.

Zhuang Jingcheng had already asked people to prepare horses, and directly asked the emperor and Zhang Fuhai to go with him.

The emperor is not afraid that Zhuang Jingcheng will harm him, his son, he has not had much contact before, he may not understand, but after contact, he knows that he is the most affectionate and will definitely not harm him.

Besides, he has no intention of the throne, and he already plans to give up the throne to Zhuang Jingcheng, if he wants to make any small moves at this time, it will obviously outweigh the losses.

Therefore, when the emperor followed Zhuang Jingcheng to a manor on the outskirts of Beijing, his eyes were full of puzzlement.

"What are you doing here?" The emperor turned over and dismounted and asked.

"I'll surprise you." Zhuang Jingcheng said.

As I walked inside, I suddenly stopped and thought it would be better to have a guarantee.

"Father, you have to promise me first, no matter what you see for a while, you are not allowed to trouble me and Jinhan, you are not allowed to pursue it, and you are not allowed to wear small shoes." Zhuang Jingcheng was extremely serious.

Emperor: "......"

After all, he still believed that he had the upper hand, and the emperor nodded seriously.

"Well, I promise you that no matter what happens, I will not hold you accountable." Although he didn't understand why he was involved with Su Jinhan.

So when he saw Concubine Lan and the child later, he was so angry in his heart that he couldn't wait to peel Zhuang Jingcheng and Su Jinhan and take them to fry and stew, but because of the promise, he could only endure it and stuffy his stomach.

Zhuang Jingcheng saw that he agreed, a satisfied smile flashed on the corner of his mouth, and he entered the door with the emperor.

All the way inside, and finally stopped in front of a side room.

The maid waiting outside the door saw that Zhuang Jingcheng wanted to salute, but asked him to wave his hand and interrupted.

The three of them walked in silently.

When I entered the house, I could hear a faint voice from inside.

"You little guy, give me a smile for my mother, good ......"

"Ah, smiled, really smiled."

The crisp voice was a little weak and delicate, which made people feel comfortable when they heard it, and when the emperor heard this somewhat familiar voice, he was even more shocked, and the whole person was stupid.

"Madame is so blessed, the little boy looks obedient." There are maids who smile and flatter.

Madame, little boy......

The emperor felt that his head was about to explode, and suddenly grabbed Zhuang Jingcheng's hand, his eyes were red.

Zhuang Jingcheng patted his hand soothingly and led him around the screen.

I saw a woman sitting on the bed in the middle of the room by the head of the bed, her face was as beautiful as a lotus, her eyes were gentle as water, holding a baby in her arms, and she was talking softly.

He stumbled and almost didn't stand firm, and hit his hand back, but he inadvertently knocked down the screen.

The huge movement frightened the child into crying, and Concubine Lan was also busy looking this way, she first saw Zhuang Jingcheng standing in the front, and then her eyes fell on the emperor who was supported by Zhang Fuhai.

The eyes were first startled, then chaotic, and then the whole person trembled unconsciously, and his face turned white into paper.

The murmur blurted out: "Your Majesty ......"

Listening to the familiar voice coming out of the mouth of a familiar person, the emperor almost burst into tears.

At this moment, the emperor doesn't care about thinking about the side, he only knows that he is still alive, and that is enough.

Breaking free of Zhang Fuhai's hand, he strode forward, and almost in a few steps, he stood in front of Concubine Lan, and blurted out a low "Lan'er".

Concubine Lan was shocked and confused at this time, she was cheating to death, but the emperor knew it at this time, what would the emperor think, what would he do with her?

Fear and worry prevailed, and Concubine Lan had little extra energy to pay attention to the affection in the emperor's eyes.

What to do? What to do? Concubine Lan's mind was full of these words.

She doesn't like fighting, but it doesn't mean she's stupid, and the appearance of the emperor means that everything she escaped from the palace before was in vain.

If the emperor investigates it, then whether it is her, Su Jinhan and Bai Qiuluo, they will all be accused of bullying the king.

Once the charge of bullying the monarch is established, then not only the three of them will suffer, but the entire Su family and Bai Qiuluo's family will be questioned.

No, how could she let such a thing happen.

Concubine Lan was so frightened that she was about to kneel up and plead guilty when she held the child directly.

However, her actions made the emperor frown, and he directly reached out to press Concubine Lan's shoulder, and said coldly: "What are you messing with?" ”

Although he didn't know exactly what was going on, Concubine Lan's weakness and the ruddy face of the child in her arms told him that she had just given birth to a child and was now in confinement, how could he let her move?

Concubine Lan was suppressed and couldn't get up, she was anxious, tears suddenly fell, and she cried: "Your Majesty, everything was done by the concubine alone, it was the concubine who came up with a fake death plan to get out of the palace, and it has nothing to do with others. ”
