There was only a three-day difference between the marriage ceremony of the crown prince and the second prince.

The young and promising prince has set the crown princess, which means that the queen throne of the Great Qin Empire for several years has been decided.

Everyone flocked to the Prime Minister's Mansion to congratulate him.

In comparison, the Taiguo Mansion was excessively quiet.

Looking at this scene, Tai Guogong was so worried that even the last dynasty was much more silent than before.

Shu Cao heard his father say this, and he was very unhappy in his heart, but he couldn't, so he had to tell the second prince quietly.

"What's the big deal?" The second prince continued to practice nonchalantly, woke up from a nap, and went to Shouchun Palace to coax the Empress Dowager Bo to open his heart, before he lost a sentence: "I'll go to Tai Guogong's Mansion to play." ”

Empress Dowager Bo told him to go quickly. I saw Queen Shu at night, and joked with her: "If you want to talk about Erlang, it's really sticky and hairier than a monkey." At such a young age, I know how to please my father-in-law. ”

But what no one knows is that the second prince went to Tai Guogong's mansion, but he didn't go to please his father-in-law, but directly took out the prince's shelf, and taught Tai Guogong a lesson.

"Taizu fought the world back then, and he lacked money in his hands. The Jiangnan boundary is the place where he squeezes the hardest. The first emperor was lenient and benevolent, very unbearable, and indulged Jiangnan to the point of connivance. A few days ago, I heard the people in the household department say that the taxes in Jiangnan have not been collected for three consecutive years. There's something going on here. ”

The second prince sat at the top of the study, upright, and his face was sinking like water.

Tai Guogong was dumbfounded, and he only listened.

"The homes of the founding generals have been desolate for many years, and it is a time when there is no success. I have said hello to the crown prince and elder brother, and I have already asked my father for permission, and you will go to the military department tomorrow to hang up the false title of squire.

"Of course, this false title is what I said to my father, the crown prince. You don't really want to think you're just going to take a spin and put gold on my face. You go to Haosheng to find out the generals who can be used under you, and then see the defense of Gyeonggi thoroughly. ”

The second prince's fingers tapped on the handle of the chair, "I promised my father to marry your daughter, not only because of her hard nature. And you. I know your ability to march and fight. ”

Tai Guogong woke up like a dream, he was so excited that he couldn't sit still, his legs were weak, and he almost fell to the ground and cried bitterly: "Thank you, Second Prince!" ”

"It doesn't matter if I say that I have a good eye, or that I have this heart. You fight for it. Don't compare yourself to the length of the day. The second prince didn't help him, stood up, dusted off his robe and prepared to go out, "Great Qin has only been founded for a few decades, and it is far from the point where you don't need martial arts only by virtue of civil governance. ”

Tai Guogong wiped the tears on his face indiscriminately, and hurriedly got up and followed him out: "Yes." Chao Xiang is Chao Xiang, we are us. ”

The second prince glanced back at him, and the meaning of warning was very strong: "If Shao Niangzi is not idle, let me go and see my brother-in-law?" ”

This!

Duke Tai Guo realized how cautious the second prince was, and immediately swallowed all the words of loyalty back into his stomach, and hurriedly ordered someone to find his son Shao Gui, accompanied the second prince to play at home for a while, and asked Shao Gui to send him away.

In the evening, when the door of the mansion was closed, Tai Guogong personally came forward and restrained the whole family with a stern face: "Now our family is the emperor." The second prince is the most intelligent and thorough person. Give me some caution in what I say and do. If you come back from causing me a little trouble, don't blame me for being ruthless! ”

How many people have said such things, and how many people have heard them. Naturally, no one really cares.

Soon, for a cage of steamed buns, a small steward of the Tai Guo Mansion, relying on the marriage of the Duchess of the Kingdom, fought with a guest in the Chao Xiang Mansion in the largest restaurant in the capital.

Tai Guogong didn't wait for the second prince to speak, so he broke the little butler's leg, and the family was thrown out, and he personally took the Duchess to the prime minister's mansion to apologize.

The words were very beautiful: "I was worried that the little girl would be able to have a concubine with the little lady Chao, and the family over there would slap me in the face." I also asked the old minister to be thoughtful about this matter, and Hugh wanted to let the second prince know. Otherwise, if I enter the Nanxun Palace, I really can't ask for this old face. ”

Chao Xiang sent people away with a haha, sat alone and groaned for a while, knocking on the emperor to see the emperor.

After saying the long and short things, Chao Xiang sincerely suggested: "Tai Guogong is a real person. Although it is not prudent to move forward in these years, at least it has not been so careful. This time he was so cautious, although it shows that he knows how to advance and retreat, and is measured, but he can also see that inside and outside the capital, there are some thoughts about me and my family. ”

The emperor glared angrily: "I still have to see their faces when I choose a daughter-in-law who agrees with me?" ”

That's not how it was said. Your Majesty listens to me. "Chao Xiang is old, and he can't help but feel a little difficult to talk about at length," Lao Chen's age has also arrived. The two children and three grandchildren in the family are also in the court. It's time for the old minister to retreat.

"Of the children in Lao Chen's family, only one eldest grandson is outstanding. The old minister's intention is to ask His Majesty to leave him for the prince's use. The two children are suitable for foreign duties, so don't move. In this way, the Chao family is more low-key, and in the court, it can help the prince.

"As for the second prince, the old minister listened, he was a very smart and righteous child. The crown prince and the second prince are siblings, and with such a clan help, the old minister, a relative, does not need to occupy a high position.

"Lao Chen's granddaughter is a sensible person. In the future, the old minister will also teach her to get along with the second princess, so that the two brothers and the two concubines can work together, and everything else is all trivial. ”

The more the emperor listened, the happier he became, and the more he listened, the more he felt that the future was better, with a smile on his face, and he said yes, so he had dinner together, and he also added tea to the old man's cloth dishes.

Monarchs and ministers are happy.

In the evening, when he went to Shouchun Palace to set the province, the emperor praised the Empress Dowager Bo for her wisdom: "If it weren't for the queen mother's order at that time, I wouldn't have known that such a family like Chao Xiang would have such peace of mind." ”

Empress Dowager Bo smiled and let him go, but she kept an eye on her heart and ordered: "Look at the Taiguo Mansion." ”

After another half a month, Chao Xiang said goodbye.

After staying and resigning as usual, the emperor conferred the title of Wen Anhou of Chao Lao Xiang Ye and asked him to live in peace in Beijing.

Where is the prime minister willing to stay in such a place of right and wrong?

Not only did he insist on returning to his hometown, but he even left the capital with a large family, including the little granddaughter who had just received the will of the crown princess. The reason is also excellent: "I always have to go back to my hometown to worship my ancestors, burn incense and pay respects, and let my ancestors be happy for this child." ”

However, Chao Xiang went out of Beijing to return to his hometown on the front foot, and the war ignited in Jiangnan on the back foot.

As a last resort, the little lady of the Chao family was sent back to the capital. Chao Xiang personally rushed to his ancestral hometown of Yancheng, and by the way, he suppressed the rebellious mountain bandits.

Another two months passed.

The bad news came: Chao Xiang was brutally killed by the homeless, and his head hung high on the gate of Yancheng.

The world was shocked, and the Son of Heaven was furious. I want to talk about "The Legend of the Crazy Concubine" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
