Chapter 601: I Have Two Wishes
Emperor Sutai was originally kneeling on the ground, hearing the movement wrong, looking up, he hurriedly rushed up to take the golden hairpin - simply Empress Dowager Su was a weak female stream, since Emperor Sutai failed to seize the crown prince back then, she was hit all the way, and her body has been much worse in the past two years. Let's see if you can stop the mourning family and seek death in the future?! Do you have that filial piety to guard the mourning family all day long?! β
"Why should the queen mother be like this?!" Emperor Su Tai looked at the golden hairpin in his hand, and suddenly closed his palm, the high-spirited phoenix made its wings flutter like it was about to fly, and the sharp wing tips pierced deeply into his palm, and the red blood gushed out along his tiger's mouth, dripping onto the scarlet brocade felt.
However, Emperor Sutai didn't care, and only turned to the Empress Dowager Su sadly, "Since His Majesty Emperor Taizu, in the past few decades, there have been not enough grievances between the royal family and the family gatekeepers?" Are there fewer innocents involved in this?! Because of the grievances of the predecessors, people who regret their lives also abound - the queen mother, when the former Yong was destroyed, foreign races ravaged the Central Plains, and the people of the world were not happy, and the ancestors finally drove out the Hulu and restored their clothes! β
"It's only been a few decades!"
"Although the four realms are safe now, the imperial capital has been attacked one after another. It's no secret that Darui is not the time to sit back and relax! β
"Even though the queen mother is the daughter of the Su family, she is also my Empress Dowager Darui - the biological mother of the child!"
"Child, please, for the sake of the child, and for the sake of the people in the world, approve the child this time, okay?!"
"Are you using the people of the world to suppress the mourning family?" Empress Dowager Su looked at him, and suddenly laughed, laughing and laughing, with tears in her eyes, "Are you really an ignorant woman in mourning?!" Not to mention that Wei's mother and son are not important enough to relate to the common people in the world, even if they are really so important, even the emperor in this world is not irreplaceable, the two of them ...... Why can't you die?! β
Emperor Sutai said bitterly: "With His Majesty Emperor Taizu and the first emperor in front, the queen mother thinks that those who are now in charge of the court, including Yanhou, who will believe in children?" β
Empress Dowager Su was slightly stunned, she knew the family's distrust of Emperor Darui.
Because Su Shaoge had turned his face and denied people when he came to the stage in order to prevent Emperor Su Tai from following Emperor Xianjia, and he also communicated with Empress Dowager Su in private.
Empress Dowager Su has a very good relationship with her mother's family, and she also heard Su Shaoge promise that she will never go too far, so that Emperor Sutai will be elevated into a puppet or something like that-so that Empress Dowager Su is ready to persuade Emperor Sutai to live in harmony with the Su family.
Unexpectedly, the situation changed abruptly, Qingzhou Su now has to go back to his hometown collectively, and the power has become Jian Xubai, Empress Dowager Su is disappointed, as for whether Jian Xubai and Emperor Sutai can get along harmoniously, as long as it is not Emperor Sutai who suffers, she naturally will not worry about this.
Now that Emperor Sutai mentioned this issue, Empress Dowager Su was silent for a short time, Fang collected her tears, and said lightly: "So you have to take your sister's life in exchange for their trust?!" β
She sneered again, "It's just that although the first emperor is gone, there is still the mourning family's mother-in-law, what qualifications do you have to cross the mourning family and sell your own sister?!" β
"And what does the Queen Mother want?" Emperor Su Tai was silent for a short time, and said slowly, "The family lords, including the Su family, will not trust the children - so if the children don't take the initiative to show favor and seek a way to settle their previous suspicions with them, the estrangement between the monarch and the minister will never be eliminated!" β
"The monarchs and ministers are suspicious of each other, and they are too busy to take care of themselves, it would be good to be able to stabilize the country, and what strength do you have to deal with the four realms?"
"In the long run, how can Da Rui not turn from prosperity to decline?!"
"Maybe relying on the legacy of Taizu and the first emperor, when the child was alive, he couldn't see the fall of Da Rui - but thinking that Da Rui, who is still living and working in peace and contentment today, is withering in the hands of the child, and the child really can't accept it!!"
Emperor Su Tai raised his head, his eyes were hot, like a raging flame, his expression was very cold, and there was a kind of stubbornness in the cauldron when he looked at it, and said lightly, "Children are trained in the court, and they have always been aiming to be a generation of Ming Jun!" If such a wish cannot be achieved, but instead of falling into a reputation of mediocrity and incompetence, the child would rather die in front of the queen mother now - after all, this is what both the Su family and the queen mother have been telling the child to do when the child has just become governor, isn't it?! β
Empress Dowager Su laughed miserably and shed tears: "You are such a smart child! The mourning family is going to die to show you, and you are also going to die to the mourning family - in that case, let's just stop our mother and son from living, so let's go underground to see your sister?! β
The Queen Mother didn't eat him, but Emperor Sutai didn't care, and only said: "Decades of grievances, the hatred between the royal family and the family is too deep, although the Shu clan is also quite powerful in the court, but there is no one who takes the lead, in the end, it is a plate of scattered sand, it is difficult to become angry!" If the child wants to continue this prosperous era forged by the first emperor, he must now join forces with the family gate valve. β
"However, the child is the Son of Heaven, and there are examples of His Majesty Emperor Taizu and the first emperor, they will not believe all the guarantees given by the child at all!"
"After all, they heard too many sweet words when they were in the first emperor and the emperor's grandmother."
"After that, it all became a lie."
"The only breakthrough is Yan Hou, he is not from an orthodox family gatekeeper, and he can't do it for his own selfishness, and he regards the world as nothing - but on the side of the family's door valve, there is only one Yanhou!"
"Even Yan Hou, who is relatively the softest-hearted, actually doesn't say that he can do anything for the world."
"He also has to think about his family, and he can't put too much trust in the child."
"What's more, Wei Xi and the others?"
"The child can only pardon Wei's mother and son, and express the child's sincerity in reconciling with them and relieving their previous suspicions!"
"Even though the child knows that just by doing this, they can't fully trust the child."
"But it's better to do it than not to do it well - Fengzhou Wei's lost very badly this time, except for the Jiangnan Hall, which has no heir and no one has inherited it so far, among the six valves in the sea, the Wei family is now in the most worrying situation! If the child is willing to show mercy to even the daughter of the Wei family and the grandson of the Wei family at the moment, it will be a big step towards the family in any case! β
Even though they still have doubts in their hearts, even though they do not think so, even though they suspect that the child is pretending to be kind...... But at least Yan Hou had a reason to mediate for the child and resolve the suspicions between the royal family and the family. β
"Now that the family is not able to usurp the throne, they suspect the child, but they also don't want to reconcile with the child, after all, after decades of intrigues, anyone will be tired."
"Not to mention the consequences of long-term infighting, they can all see it."
"Eight times out of ten, they handed this step. Nine, I'll step on it. β
"Even though they are still defensive and suspicious in their hearts, the child believes that the hearts of the people will be seen over time!"
"Queen Mother, the child knows that it is cruel to you to say this, but the child still has to say: The way of the emperor taught by the Su family to the child has always been cautious and does not allow any willfulness."
"It's not just that children can't be willful, but even the people around children, such as the queen mother and cousin."
Emperor Sutai closed his eyes, "Last night, the child has personally told his cousin about the harem, and after two days of official canonization of his cousin as the queen and into the Weiyang Palace, the child will accept a few people they picked as concubines in accordance with the meaning of the family's gate valve, so as to further ease the relationship between the two sides, and also to stabilize the heart of the court." β
The cousin didn't say anything, but the child knew she was very sad.
"Her temperament was originally just right to be a princess, but she married a child, and she wanted to be the mother of a country that she didn't like or liked - whether it was a cousin or a child, she was now young, so that the child had been looking forward to it for a long time, but she was full of displeasure and helplessness, if there was no accident, it would last for decades."
"It's her who changes the child, and the child can't imagine how patient she will be?"
"So the queen mother, you say that the child values his cousin but despises you and his sister, which is not right."
"Before I came to see you, the child had already injured his cousin."
When the young emperor said this, he opened his eyes and looked at the Empress Dowager Su without any expression, "The child said this to you, I don't mean anything else, I just want to tell you that the child is from the bottom of his heart, and he hopes to be a good emperor, and he hopes to govern this great world more prosperous than when the first emperor was there, and more majestic than when Taizu was there - for this reason, the child doesn't care about any grievances, let alone any pain!" β
Emperor Sutai didn't continue, but the Empress Dowager Su already understood what he meant: if the Empress Dowager insisted on forcing her to die, then Emperor Sutai ...... Still won't budge!
At this moment, Empress Dowager Su was really discouraged, when she was angry before, she really moved the idea of death, but after Emperor Sutai snatched the golden hairpin, she thought that her biological son would always compromise. But now, she felt that it was better for Emperor Sutai not to have time to stop herβat least she wouldn't hear her son's hints with her own ears.
"The child and cousin are still young." Emperor Su Tai looked at the suddenly bored Empress Dowager Su, pursed his lips, showing a little unbearable, but only said, "In the future, the heirs, except for the eldest son, the queen mother can pass on to her sister, and it can be regarded as a child's sister under Jiuquan, and make a little compensation." β
"When the child reaches the ground one day, he will kneel three times and bow nine times in front of the great Rui ancestors and ancestors, and ask his sister for his guilt!"
When he said this, he laughed self-deprecatingly in his heart: Although these words came from the heart, in fact, there was also the intention of tying up the Empress Dowager Su to Nie Wuying as a protector.
Because if Empress Dowager Su really wants to choose an heir or heir for her daughter from among her grandchildren, then she must first ensure that she will be the biological mother of her grandchildren in the future, Nie Wuying's wife is peaceful after entering the palace.
Otherwise, Nie Wuying has a mistake, where will she choose an heir for her daughter?
"Is this the Lonely Man?" The young Emperor Sutai was momentarily confused, from the moment he sat in this position, from the time he formally thought about his future, he finally realized what it means to be in a high place, and the mother of his birth and his wife, who seemed to be close at hand, but also far awayβbecause the originally intimate feelings always had to make way for his power and ambitions.
Even if they are blood relatives, how can they not give birth to gaps?
Intrigue and intrigue will run through his lifeβjust as power and prominence will run through his life, and nothing will ever be gained in this world, and there will be no price; There has never been any honor, and there is no need to bear the burden.
After only a moment of weakness, Emperor Sutai's eyes had regained indifference and firmness.
He is talented and intelligent, and he was originally a good material for being an emperor, and the Su family taught him hard in order to make Emperor Xianjia like him.
is because his heart is very resolute, and he will never shake his long-cherished wish for the sake of mother and son.
Facing Emperor Sutai's gaze that had no room to turn, Empress Dowager Su trembled for a long time, didn't say anything, just leaned over and grabbed the silver incense burner that fell at her feet, and smashed it on his head!
Ignoring the blood stains on his forehead, the Queen Mother gritted her teeth and screamed angrily: "Get out!! β
β¦β¦ After Emperor Sutai staggered out of the door, he didn't go far before he saw Su Shaoge walking out slowly behind the pillars.
The emperor was not surprised, although Su Shaoge promised to be simple and white, and no longer to be a leader, but because it was approaching the end of the year, the heavy snow closed the road, the Su family had been in the imperial capital for so many years, and the family was particular about traveling, and it took time to pack up things, so he said that he would leave after the beginning of the year.
Therefore, before Emperor Su Tai came to Huiyi Palace, he sent someone to the Jihou Mansion to pass on the message, asking Su Shaoge to enter the palace immediately and prepare to be a lobbyist for himself - he knew that he could not convince the Empress Dowager Su, and he could only count on Su Shaoge, a cousin who was deeply trusted and relied on by the Empress Dowager Su.
"Is Your Majesty alright?" Su Shaoge looked at his embarrassed appearance and frowned slightly, "Changxing is the only daughter of the Queen Mother, and Your Majesty's request today is too unbelievable for the Queen Mother, otherwise the Queen Mother would not have lost her sense of proportion like this." β
"It's okay for me." Emperor Sutai shook his head, "I know that the Queen Mother is uncomfortable, and when she has a seizure, I am also relieved." β
He was silent, "It's just that the Queen Mother is in a fierce mood right now, although Fang Yu went in to persuade her, but my cousin might as well spend a while, and wait for the Queen Mother's anger to calm down a bit, and then it's not too late to speak before entering." β
Emperor Sutai is now the heir of King Suhui - chasing Wuzong - and naturally he can't continue to call Empress Dowager Su "Queen Mother" in front of people, but he called Su Shaoge "cousin".
However, Su Shaoge didn't seem to appreciate this intimacy, and only reminded with a chuckle: "Your Majesty just calls the words of the ministers, otherwise it will be heard by people, and there will be no more turmoil." β
Emperor Sutai saw that there was excellent resentment and alienation hidden under his gentle appearance, but he did not have the slightest embarrassment and displeasure, and only said gently: "Even if it is my aunt's own nephew, I can call my cousin, can't I?" β
Su Shaoge didn't insist on this question, only nodded, and walked towards the main hall - just as he passed by Emperor Sutai, he asked softly: "Your Majesty will regret it in the future?" β
"......" Emperor Sutai was stunned, I don't know if he meant to let go of Wei's mother and son, or hurt the queen mother's heart like this today? After a moment of silence, he said, "I know what I have to do, so as long as this thing is done, even if there are regrets, I think I can bear it." β
He was silent for a moment, "I have two wishes: one is that Darui will prosper forever; Second, I hope that my descendants will no longer have to bear the grievances and retribution of their predecessors. β
"All my life, I will work hard to achieve them."
"No matter what situation I fall into, I am as happy as I am!"
