343. The crown prince succeeds to the throne

Tang Muchen arched his hand in his direction and said a word of forgiveness.

Uncle Guo knew that he couldn't say anything about him, so he angrily took Xiao Shizi's hand and threw his sleeves away.

Tang Muchen looked at their backs as they left, with an irrepressible smile on his face.

After returning home, Uncle Guo, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and he went to find Tang Muchen not only did not seek justice, but was ridiculed by him, it was simply stealing chickens and rice.

Xiao Shizi watched his father pacing back and forth outside the hall, and couldn't understand why he said that he was seeking justice for himself, but he came back without doing anything, and he didn't even see Tang Lingyun's face. But seeing that his father was angry, he didn't dare to go up and say anything, so he turned around and ran towards his room.

After sending Uncle Guo away, Tang Muchen returned to his yard, and the daughter of the ancient ballad was chasing after Tang Lingyun, shouting "brother, brother". And Tang Lingyun, who was in trouble, was patiently watching an ant climb a tree.

Su Xiaojin walked to Tang Muchen's side and asked him if the matter was solved?

Tang Muchen raised his eyebrows proudly, everything was under control.

Su Xiaojin smiled and leaned on Tang Muchen's arms. She knew that Tang Muchen was protecting the calf.

"But you will teach Tang Lingyun badly like this!" She sneered.

Tang Muchen looked at the two children running around in the yard and gently rubbed Su Xiaojin's head.

"The boy is definitely not as sensible as the daughter, so you have to give me a little padded jacket quickly!" He smiled wickedly.

Listening to Tang Muchen's words, a trace of blush appeared on Su Xiaojin's face, and her eyes unconsciously fell on the two little cuties in the yard, and her eyes were full of yearning.

The emperor was physically and mentally exhausted because of Xiao Wenxuan's incident, and Concubine Xiang had to leave to give him a big blow, as well as Xiao Wenxuan, he would rather be exiled than bow his head and confess.

Born in the royal family, there is naturally the helplessness of the royal family. The world envies them for having no worries about food and clothing, but they never know what kind of dirt and blood are behind these glamorous and glamorous!

The emperor sighed, the past of the previous dynasty appeared in front of him, and he felt like he had a dream.

At this moment, the queen pushed the door open. Seeing him alone in a daze, he hurriedly walked over and asked him what was wrong.

"Alas, Xu is getting older, and I've been getting more and more cranky lately." The emperor laughed self-deprecatingly.

If he had his temper in the past, he would have picked off Xiao Wenxuan's head a long time ago. But now, he can't do it. Maybe it's because I'm old and don't want to see those bloody things anymore.

The queen did not speak, but meekly leaned over his knees and closed her eyes.

"Your Majesty, the concubine has always had something unclear." After a while, she spoke.

The emperor stroked her temples and signaled that she had something to say.

"Why didn't Your Majesty let the concubines and the crown prince participate in Xiao Wenxuan's rebellion?" The queen asked boldly.

The emperor was silent, when he testified with Xiao Wenxuan that day, he resolutely asked the queen and the prince to avoid it, because he didn't want to make any more extraneous branches. No matter how vicious Xiao Wenxuan is, he is also his child, how can he watch him fall into the hands of the prince and be tortured to death?

"I don't want the prince to be too tired!" The emperor answered the question.

The queen shook her head, she understood the emperor's good intentions. Since ancient times, the royal family has fought many fratricides in order to ascend to that supreme position.

The emperor did not let the prince try the case, because he was afraid that the prince would announce his personal vendetta, so he took the opportunity to finish off Xiao Wenxuan in order to prevent future troubles.

"Your Majesty, the prince is kind-hearted and will not harm his siblings." The queen said confidently.

The emperor smiled without saying a word, he raised his head and looked at the dim flickering candlelight outside the window, as if he saw himself when he was young.

At that time, he was also a good man with strong blood, who didn't know how to take the heir, didn't know how to fight openly and secretly, and didn't even know how to kill. However, later, the elder brother rebelled and led thousands of troops to attack the city. When he and his father were trapped within the city walls, his life was in danger, and he realized that his identity itself was marked with blood.

Sometimes when he closed his eyes, he could still see the desperate eyes of his father, hear the fighting of the soldiers under the castle tower, and the pleading of the queen mother and the neighing of the war horse in his ears.

"The crown prince should always be kind-hearted, so Xiao Wenxuan's disposition can only be decided by me. The world will not slander him or slander him. The emperor withdrew his gaze and looked down at the queen in his arms, just in time to meet her hot eyes.

The queen looked at him gratefully, maybe he was right, the crown prince will ascend the throne as the emperor in the future, and his hands must not be stained with the blood of his hands and feet, let alone leave the stigma of killing his brother.

The emperor thought about it later and felt that it was time for him to abdicate. simply passed the throne directly to the crown prince.

The queen and the crown prince were overjoyed. Tang Muchen sighed when he learned about it, and it could be regarded as what everyone expected. Su Xiaojin smiled, indeed, he finally lived up to everyone's expectations.

"Actually, Xiao Wenxuan was also a kind person." Su Xiaojin looked at the banana leaves outside the window and sighed.

Su Xiaoqian nodded and shook his head again.

Su Xiaojin was puzzled, what did he mean?

"Sister, people will always change, or go with the flow, or keep their original intentions. Xiao Wenxuan may be right or wrong, these will be left to future generations to comment. Su Xiaoqian said with some sadness.

He walked to the windowsill with his hands behind his back. Thinking of the days when he and Xiao Wenxuan first met, he was still a high-spirited teenager at that time, and he was also a frank and unrestrained husband, but unfortunately they all changed later.

Tang Muchen nodded, yes, time is gone, and it is impossible for all of them to go back to the past.

Su Xiaojin smiled, sometimes watching Tang Lingyun grow up day by day, she couldn't help but sigh, time flies so fast, it seems that she is old in the blink of an eye.

The old rumor shook his head.

"The lady is not old, the lady is like a fairy in the nine heavens, her face is eternal, and she is immortal."

Su Xiaojin smiled, she is just an ordinary man, where did she come from to live forever?

Soon, it will be Tang Lingyun's third birthday. Tang Muchen decided to take the opportunity to report the birthday banquet, as soon as Su Xiaojin was too bored, he was bored all day long. Second, he wanted to take the opportunity to warn Uncle Guo to stay away from his son. Although Tang Lingyun is not very old, the fights and brawls are first-class.

When Su Xiaojin learned about it, he couldn't stop laughing. How can there be such a father in this world, who actually praises his son for fighting and fighting.

"You also said that your son is most like you are very naughty." Tang Muchen smiled and scratched her little nose.

Su Xiaojin covered her stomach and shook her head, what should I do, her stomach hurt from laughing.

The two were talking and laughing, Meng Xiaoling came, and as soon as he entered the door, he called out to Tang Lingyun, looking like he wouldn't stop if he couldn't see him.

Su Xiaojin smiled: "Yes, Lingyun's mother-in-law is here!" ”

Tang Muchen glared at her, turned around and went to the study. Su Xiaojin smiled, he was really shy, he was just teasing him.
