Chapter 96: Lichu

Xu sat in the room and drank the medicine brought by the maid. She hadn't slept well for several nights, and her eyes were blue. But she still didn't want to sleep at all, looking at the incense courtyard, her eyes were blank.

On the night of the candles in the cave room, the princess must be very happy. The prince should also be very happy. The newcomer has already entered the door, and she, the old moldy person, has no status.

Xu thought about it, shed two tears, and coughed violently while clutching his chest.

Cui'er just came in from outside, patted her on the back to help her smooth out, fed her a sip of hot water, and saw that Xu was a little better before saying, "Niangniang, the prince didn't rest in the Ningxiang Courtyard tonight." ”

Xu's anger was much smoother, and he was surprised, tonight was the night of candles in the cave room, and Zhou Shuxuan actually ......

Xu Shi asked with a light in his eyes, "What did the prince say?" ”

"It seems that his legs and feet are inconvenient, so let the princess rest by herself."

This is obviously an excuse for prevarication, and Zhou Shuxuan is not unable to have sex. It seems that the prince doesn't like this new princess much, and the Xu family is extremely happy in his heart. This new Xu family is estimated to have a result with the Xia family, and in the end, it is estimated that he will not be able to bear the loneliness, and the prince will definitely find her good at that time.

Xu was addicted to himself for a while, and suddenly remembered that he had drugged Zhou Shuxuan before. Zhou Shuxuan didn't trouble her afterwards, and Xu always felt that it was over.

Now that I suddenly think about it, I don't think it's right. Zhou Shuxuan finally went to find Miaoli, which means that he doesn't like women. Could it be that he decided on one and didn't like anything else?

Xu kept an eye on it, and kept thinking about the matter of pondering Miaoli in his heart, and he had no sleep all night.

The appearance of the third watch, the emperor called a big start. Without scruples about Zhou Shuxuan's newlywed yesterday, the eunuch who delivered the decree still arrived at the Qin Palace.

Zhou Shuxuan was woken up in his sleep, and Wei Hai stood outside the bed curtain and asked, "Lord Wang, do you want someone to come in and wait for you to get up?" ”

Zhou Shuxuan pondered for a moment and made a choice, "Say that I am overworked, have a sudden illness, and can't go." ”

"The slave knows."

Wei Hai went out and put out two candles, wanting him to sleep again.

Zhou Shuxuan lay down, but he couldn't sleep anymore. His anxious new and old father-in-law is estimated to have taken action, and he doesn't know how to avoid suspicion, so it's good to wait for two more days.

If they really want to discuss the matter of establishing a prince today, whether he goes or not, he can say a reason anyway.

But it's better not to go, the emperor has a deep prejudice against him, if he is there, it is estimated that everyone will not be able to get off the stage, and it is not a good thing to be reprimanded in front of hundreds of civil and military officials.

His legs ...... There will definitely be a lot of people talking about it.

Also, let a disabled person be the emperor, there is really no one in the country, but he still has to fight.

Zhou Shuxuan was in a melancholy mood, and his eyes were open until dawn.

In the Longde Palace, the patriarch of the Three Dynasties, Zhang Ge Lao, who has been old for a long time, also came.

When the emperor saw the old man standing below, he quickly asked someone to bring a chair over, let Zhang Ge sit down, and then asked politely: "I haven't seen the Qing family for a long time, is your health okay?" ”

Zhang Ge Lao arched his hand and said: "Don't hide it from the emperor, the minister's body is getting worse day by day." Recently, I have been worried about my lord, and I have added some sickness. ”

"Didn't it give you a good rest? What worries do you bear for me? ”

Zhang Ge Lao arched his hand and said with a full heart: "Your Highnesses are all older, and ordinary people still have to choose one to help my father take care of things." What's more, my lord has thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, such a big foundation. ”

The emperor smiled and said, "I am clear, you mean that I am old, and I may die one day, and it is time to establish a prince." ”

Zhang Ge Lao said very frightenedly: "Long live my lord, long live, long live, long live, the minister just thinks that His Royal Highness can share the worries of the emperor." ”

The emperor waved at him, signaling that it was nothing, "I know, I also have the intention of establishing a prince." However, I have six sons, and the Qing family looks at who is not bad. ”

Zhang Ge arched his hand slightly, "The emperor forgives his sins, the ministers are not strong enough, and they haven't cared about His Highnesses for a long time, and they really don't have any ideas at this time." ”

The emperor smiled and said: "The old man is old and still has so many eyes, are you afraid that you are on the wrong side now and ruin your life's kung fu?" ”

Zhang Ge Lao just smiled and didn't reply.

The emperor looked at the civil and military officials again and asked, "What about you?" Who do you think is good, tell me about it. ”

Lichu is not a trivial matter, some of the officials lowered their heads and whispered, and for a while the chatter was very lively, but no one stood up to speak.

The emperor let them discuss for a while before he spoke again, "What's the matter, has the result been discussed?" Zuo Xiang, you are the head of the hundred officials, you say it first. ”

The named Zuo Xiang took a step forward, bowed his head and said, "The minister is suspected of raising relatives, and it is inconvenient to say." ”

The emperor thought about his words carefully, and yesterday Zhou Shuxuan married his youngest daughter, probably this kiss.

"That's what you mean by King Qin, there are no relatives in the court, tell me the reason."

Zuo Xiang didn't shirk anymore, and said what he thought in his heart, "His Royal Highness King Qin has worked hard for the emperor and the people for so many years, which is obvious to all. Controlling the water, sending an envoy to Gaochang, implementing the New Deal, and other great and small feats are countless. ”

The emperor didn't say anything, just nodded slightly, and there was no obvious expression on his face, and asked, "What about the others, do you have anything to say?" ”

There was no response for a long time, and all the officials lowered their heads, and no one wanted to make a bird.

The emperor looked at him coldly and said, "I don't know that my ministers are all a group of Mr. Nanguo, and no one will say it if they don't name me." Goshidai, what do you think? ”

Yu Shitai came out and didn't say too much nonsense, "The minister is also optimistic about His Royal Highness King Qin." ”

The emperor still didn't say anything, and ordered a few more people, all of which were Zhou Shuxuan, Zuo Xiang secretly screamed in his heart that it was not good, some people said that Zhou Shuxuan was normal, and it was a good thing. But if all of them say something, it will be very dangerous, and Zhou Shuxuan will be suspected of forming a party.

The emperor seems to have done it on purpose, except for him, all the points were made friends with Zhou Shuxuan before, and he was Zhou Shuxuan's father-in-law, this should not be a coincidence, Zuo Xiang pinched a sweat for Zhou Shuxuan.

The emperor was still talking to someone, and finally there was a bright light that he didn't say Zhou Shuxuan, so the emperor stopped, smiled quite sarcastically, and said: "I thought that the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were blind, and I couldn't see King Qin's leg disease." How can a person who can't stand up be a prince. In the future, I will succeed to the throne, let my country laugh at me, is there no one in the big country? You've read a belly full of sages in vain. ”

"The ministers are terrified."

Led by the left prime minister, he knelt down in unison.

The emperor reprimanded with a straight face, "This is my minister, all of them are dizzy, as if they have received someone's benefit." ”

The emperor's words were thorny, and Zuo Xiang didn't dare to raise his head, and gently wiped the sweat on his forehead. He seems to have made a mistake in this step, and the emperor's prejudice against Zhou Shuxuan is not the slightest bit.

After glaring at them for a long time, the emperor asked again: "Is there anyone who hasn't received benefits?" ”

The officials were silent, and no one spoke, as just now.

The emperor sneered, and stared at them with a straight face, and the monarch and ministers were deadlocked for a while. A breeze finally appeared on the calm lake, and among the military attachΓ©s, King Qi strode out and said, "There are different candidates for Erchen. ”

The emperor glanced at him lightly, and his face did not change and asked, "Who?" ”

"Erchen wants to recommend himself."

King Qi boldly elected himself, and all the officials were a little shocked, took a breath of cool air, and waited for the emperor's answer.

The emperor was silent for a moment, and did not judge the words of the direct Qi king, but said: "You all see, my son is not only the king of Qin, but also the panting, the eighth prince, the tenth prince, and the twelfth prince, they are all still alive and well. It is a prudent matter to establish a reserve, which is related to the fortunes of the country. That's all for today, you go back and think about it again, and then hand it over when you've thought about it. I'm tired, let's retreat. ”

The emperor stretched his muscles slightly, the last sentence was not an excuse, he was really tired. I don't know what's going on lately.,I can't seem to use any strength in my body.。

The people who were staring at all the officials, the people who played a decisive role in the confrontation, did not say a word during the whole process.

The eldest princess looked at them one by one, and her eyes seemed to be glued to her, and she asked with a smile: "Looking at the palace, do you want to go to the princess's mansion for tea, or do you want to ask the palace for a few tricks?" ”

Baiguan said again and again that no, going to the princess's mansion to drink tea would be cheated of silver, and fighting with the eldest princess was a fate. No one looks at her anymore, how fast she runs.

No one was dangling in front of her, so the eldest princess deliberately slowed down and waited for King Qi to come up behind her. Two steps away, King Qi quickly caught up, but as if he didn't see her, he passed by her without squinting.

When she came back from the spring hunt, King Qi treated her very differently. Don't cling to her like before, like deliberately trying to distance yourself from her.

The child had a temper tantrum, and the eldest princess found out that it was no different, and he went.

But there was something to do with him today, and the eldest princess reached out and grabbed King Qi's arm, "Wait, I have something to say to you." ”

King Qi stopped, the person stiffened for a moment, quickly removed her hand, and deliberately stood up a little, and said with a cold face: "Auntie has something to do, but it doesn't matter, don't pull and pull." ”

He also served it, and the eldest princess rolled her eyes.

"Do you really have any thoughts about the position of the prince?"

I have to admit that the moment King Qi said that Mao Sui recommended himself, she was also frightened. Based on her previous observations, King Qi did not have much interest in the throne. Or did she not know what had happened during this time, and he had a different idea.

King Qi didn't think much about it, and pushed back in an unkind tone, "Whether I have any ideas or not is my own business, and it has nothing to do with my aunt." ”

The eldest princess was stunned by him, endured the fire in her heart, gritted her teeth and said, "You have the ability!" ”

After all, he was just fighting with her, King Qi didn't really want to provoke her completely, and his tone was a little softer, "I'm also a prince, why can't I have thoughts about the throne?" ”
