Qin Xun was in the middle of his stomach, and he was unexpectedly named by the emperor, and he felt the same as being lit by Mr. when he was distracted by a lecture in the school.

He had a slight tension in his muscles for a moment, and then he came out of the ranks, and his legs, which had been kneeling for a long time when he got up, were so numb that he staggered, and was slightly supported by Qi Jue on the right side of his right elbow, and Qin Xun thanked him with a smile.

"Your Majesty, the minister has no official position, and he doesn't dare to talk about court affairs lightly."

"In the Taiji Palace, discussing national affairs, today Weizhi is standing in the Taiji Palace, so let's just say a few words, it doesn't matter, I just want to hear your opinion."

The minister said directly. Qin Xun smiled lightly with bent eyes, his words were a little naïve, "If Your Majesty wants to listen to the truth, then the Third Highness is the cousin of the minister, and of course the minister thinks that the Third Highness is the most suitable to be the prince." ”

The Emperor immediately burst out laughing.

"Ridiculous!" Today, Qu Boyong, the initiator of the discussion of this matter, finally spoke up, "How can you talk about the major affairs of the court, you can talk about it in vain, you just treat political affairs as child's play!" ”

Qin Zhenhai followed closely: "The kid is ignorant, the minister has no way to teach, Your Majesty forgives the sin." ”

"It's okay, it's okay." On the contrary, the emperor's face was quite pleasant, "Look, you all have clear selfishness in your hearts, and you all have to speak in a high-sounding manner, but you are an ignorant boy, frank and outspoken, and above board." ”

These words are mostly entrained by the emperor's anger, the courtiers and Qin Xun are such an idler, they can't be confused, if the courtiers and the emperor are like Qin Xun when they are as delicate and innocent as Qin Xun, I don't know how many heads to be cut off, the emperor just deliberately used words to lose a few words.

The emperor is angry in his heart, he is the emperor, if he doesn't want to hold his breath, others will have to bear it.

Qin Xun bowed lightly: "Your Majesty praises falsely, the minister is ashamed, it is the minister's false words." ”

Who can not know that Qin Xun is Qi Jing's person, and the candidate for the crown prince is undoubtedly the third prince Qi Jing, the emperor asked him who he thought was suitable, which was equivalent to asking a nonsense, and the intention of him asking this nonsense was just to make a few young ministers who were kicked out by their respective old ministers to be gunmen unhappy, and wanted to tease Qin Xun to ease his mood.

Qi Jing is very much like the emperor, and Qin Xun has already made this clear to Qi Jing.

Their father and son have the same preferences and habits in some aspects, and Qin Xun can mostly deal with them in similar ways, just like saying that as long as he grasps the limit of their tolerance, he is pleasing to be coquettish, and he uses a little pampering to make some bad tricks, and their father and son can tolerate him.

It's just that the emperor and Qi Jing have different limits to tolerate Qin Xun, Qin Xun can rely on Qi Jing's bottomless favor to him without scruples in front of him, but for the emperor, Qin Xun needs to be much more cautious, and honesty and falsehood are mixed.

However, the emperor didn't seem to intend to let Qin Xun go easily: "Weizhi, put aside your kinship with Guicheng, you should be serious, how about talking to me?" ”

The emperor has made enough trouble, and he plans to end it, Qin Xun thought so in his heart.

"Back to Your Majesty, the minister knows that the court is very small, only looking at the current Daqi under the rule of Your Majesty, the wind and rain are smooth, the country and the people are safe, and the minister thinks that His Majesty is sage, if he chooses to inherit the great

The prince of the unification should be chosen, like His Majesty. Although Qin Xun still meant that he was partial to Qi Jing, he straightened his expression, replied with more courtiers, and a few flattering words to coax the emperor into a pleasant ear.

The most like the emperor among the princes is naturally Qi Jing, not to mention the side, just in terms of appearance, the seventeen-year-old third prince Qi Jing and the eighteen-year-old emperor who ascended the throne at the beginning of the year are simply carved out of the same mold, and the third prince of Qin is still the third prince who supports it.

"Then Wei Zhi, which of my princes is most like me?"

"The minister thinks it......" Qin Xun paused, and the essence in his eyes flashed, "The son is like the father's family, the seven princes, all like Your Majesty, there is no difference." ”

The ministers were in an uproar.

This kid is really smart, the emperor leaned back in the chair behind him, squinted his eyes and carefully looked at him from head to toe like the red-clothed young man in the palace for the first time, but he didn't pause when he answered: "Weizhi said this, I don't understand, you say that the prince should be like me, and you say that the seven princes are all like me, is it that after a hundred years, the Great Qi will be ruled by the seven monarchs?" ”

Qin Xun said unhurriedly: "The minister is saying that His Majesty's seven sons are all like His Majesty, so if Your Majesty and the ministers choose only one person, the remaining six sons are really wronged, and it will also make Your Majesty give up and be sad, that is, as Yan Xiang said, Your Majesty is in the prime of life, and the dragon is healthy, why rush to this matter, what does it matter if you think about it for a few more years?" And your lords, ......" he raised his head slightly, and smiled at the emperor who had the same meaning in his eyes, "The noble concubine Niangniang just gave birth to the seventh prince this morning, and Your Majesty is not confused about the prime of life, why do you regard the seventh prince as a son, so anxious?" ”

Qin Xun sat quietly on the court of the third prince of that generation, as soon as he opened his mouth to speak, he was sharp and arrogant, and when he opened his mouth, he postponed the proposal of the establishment of the prince for "a few years", and did not give face to the careful thinking of the ministers who played the prince, and after saying this, I don't know how many people to offend, Qin Xun could catch a glimpse of his second brother Qin Xiao in the official column next to him with an anxious look on his face that couldn't wait to come up and cover his mouth.

"I think it's ......"

"Alright." As soon as the emperor raised his hand to interrupt the unknown person's sentence of "think", and after singing and cooperating with the red-clothed young man who had gone to court for the first time, he was also satisfied, and planned to end today's early dynasty, which had been delayed for many hours.

"The left sentence is a reserve, the right sentence is a reserve, what, are you looking forward to my death?" The emperor did not see his anger, but his voice was silent because of the meaning of his words.

"The minister is terrified." The ministers hurriedly bowed down, and several of the people standing in the hall, including Qin Xun, also knelt down and lowered their heads, avoiding looking directly at the holy face.

"Reading the hearts of your ministers, I don't want to be harsh, but you," the emperor pointed at Ma Fei, "talking about the emperor in vain, there is no respect and humility, why, according to your meaning, except for the eldest son of the emperor, all the other princes are not orthodox?" My son is not orthodox in Great Qi? Are you saying I'm unorthodox? The more he spoke, the more angry he became, and slapped his palm on the armrest of the dragon chair, so frightened that the ministers who were lying on the ground were so frightened that they wanted to die on the ground, for fear of being affected by the emperor's wrath.

"Your Majesty! This is not the case! The minister is wronged! Your Majesty! Your Majesty doesn't dare! The minister had no such intention

Yes! ”

The ministers didn't even dare to look up, they could only distinguish from the faint shouts of Ma Fei in their ears that the guards who were instructed by the emperor dragged out of the Taiji Palace, and Qu Boyong, the right minister who kicked him out, naturally would not say half a word for him.

As for what to do with Ma Fei, the emperor did not say it directly.

If nothing happens, it is certain to die, Qin Xun silently sighed in his heart, and accompanied the king like a tiger.

Today's matter of establishing a prince is yellow, but the emperor mentioned it unintentionally before retreating from the court: "Recently, I have returned to the city and my body is sick, Meng Xuan, he is in charge of government affairs, and you can take over for a while." ”

"The retainers obey." Qi Xuan said.

This is a consolation of the Qu family, and it is also a warning to the Qu family, there is such a scene in the court today, to put it bluntly, the Qu family has an empty stomach and asks for food, no matter how you say it, you have to feed the Qu family some benefits, and the Qu family gets these benefits, and they should be in peace for a while, don't make any more trouble.

Qin Xun couldn't help but think about it in many layers, the emperor took away the power of Qi Jing's hands and gave it to Qi Xuan, in addition to targeting the Qu family, I am afraid that it was also mixed with a small punishment for Qi Jing's offensive words this morning.

After a morning's work, the emperor punished Qi Lang for Qi Jing with the intention of flattering, but Qi Jing's power was temporarily transferred to Qi Xuan when Qi Jing fell ill.

As for how long Qi Jing can recover these powers after his illness is cured, it depends on when the emperor's anger towards his third son can dissipate.

Qi Jing, Qi Jing, okay, what are you doing offending your father? Qin Xun sighed.

Gonggong Wu followed the king and left with small steps, and all the ministers got up one after another and left the palace. Qin Xun endured the soreness of his legs and slowly stood up, slandering on his stomach that such a thing as the court was really a sin, his body was sinned, and his spirit was also sinned, what is there that is worthy of the world's seekers?

A person approached him and held his arm to give him strength, and when he looked up, it was still Qi Jue.

Qi Jue smiled: "How is it, the first time you went to the court, you were tired, right?" ”

Qin Xun was not polite to him, and pressed part of his body weight on the palm of his hand dragging his forearm, and rubbed his knees with the other hand in turn: "I'm surprised, Brother Tiger can stand this temperament?" ”

"If you can't stand it, you have to bear it, who told the old man Qu that he can't get used to seeing your cousin who returned to the city, if you ask Meng Xuan to come with me, you will get used to it." Qi Jue saw him rubbing his knees, and said, "What, still stand firm?" Brother Tiger carries you back? ”

"Don't, how can I help you." Qin Xun hurriedly stood up straight, and at the same time moved his arm away from his palm, pulled Qi Xuan's sleeve a few times, and said in a low voice, "Let's go, let's go, I won't be out of this Tai Chi Hall again." As soon as he was around, he saw his father Qin Zhenhai getting up not far from the diagonal front, hunched over and dusting off his clothes.

Qi Jue laughed "poof", and quickly ran out of the hall gate as if fleeing behind the young man, and only slowed down slightly when he walked to the white steps outside the hall.

Qi Jue teased him: "I'm interested, I think you can speak in front of my father and emperor at first, it's quite arrogant, why are you still cowardly afterwards?" I don't believe you really coaxed your father. ”

"Whoever instigates him, I am afraid of himself

He couldn't teach me a lesson, so he took me directly to the old man, and the old man knew that he would peel off a layer of my skin. Qin Xun pouted, fortunately, his grandfather Qin Ao is also not very good at the court now, otherwise Qin Xun would have to shrink his hands and feet when he was arrogant in the court today, he believed that his grandfather Qin Ao had done something to skin him on the spot in the Taiji Palace.

"Stay in the slightest."

Qin Xun was still stopped in the end, but it was not his father, it was Qi Xuan, the person around whom the affairs of the court were revolved.

"Meet Your Highness." Qin Xun saluted him.

"No need to be polite." Qi Xuan held his arm, revealing a little anxious and tangled look, "Weizhi, I ......"

Qin Xun smiled and comforted him: "Your Highness, don't worry. ”

"Weizhi, my grandfather was anxious for a while, and there were many things wrong with his actions, and he didn't return to the city today, I can only explain one or two things to you, Weizhi, you know, I actually ...... I don't mean to, I ...... When you return to the city, don't mistake it for a brother. Qi Xuan was a little embarrassed in his words.
