The Imperial Study.

Emperor Xianping looked at the small stack of folds piled up on the desk slowly, and ignored the prince who couldn't kneel down for a long time, and the inner 'waiter' of the pen and ink was as light as a goose' 'feather', and he didn't dare to raise his eyelids more.

The copper leak in the corner of the house was not in a hurry, and there was a faint sound of wind outside the hall, as if it was going to rain.

The inner 'waiter' looked up at the window, studied an inkstone, walked quickly to the nearest window and closed half of the window, but when he turned back, he saw a large bead of sweat dripping down the prince's forehead, and his heart was full of compassion and death, but it was an awe-inspiring hug!

The crown prince Tang Ang is the eldest son of Emperor Xianping and Empress Chunyu, after Emperor Xianping ascended the throne on the second day, he was officially established in less than half a year, and Tang Ang was only a young child at that time.

After becoming the prince, both Emperor Xianping and Empress Chunyu attach great importance to him, and cultivate according to the requirements of the prince everywhere, because Emperor Xianping favors the queen, all sons and daughters are the same father and mother, and they get along well with each other, which can be described as brothers, friends and brothers, Tang Ang, the prince, has always had a stable position, and because of the emperor's love, the prince has always been carefully supported and cultivated, Tang Ang was ten years old with the Xianping Emperor to listen to the government, and at the age of thirteen, he independently handled affairs, and at the age of sixteen, he approved military affairs on behalf of the Xianping Emperor at the age of sixteen.

Although there are mistakes and mistakes in the middle, every time Emperor Xianping does not move to clean up the scene for him, and then 'privately' to give guidance, before today, the emperor has never been so faceless to the prince.

Like this long kneeling, serving Emperor Xianping for many years, the 'servant' has only met once before, that is to ask to marry the commoner-born Lu Ji as the crown princess, was angrily reprimanded out of the harem by Queen Chunyu, and the prince also knelt in front of Emperor Xianping with the last hope.

It's just that Emperor Xianping let him kneel for a day and a night, and still chose to support the queen's approach - the government and the opposition all know that although Empress Chunyu has not reached the point of going to the court with Emperor Xianping, but in all matters of court and politics, only this queen does not want to 'intervene', and she can't 'intervene' without her, and the inner 'servant' knows more because he is in the palace - Emperor Chunyu has never objected to the decision made by Empress Chunyu.

So this time......

The inner 'servant' sighed in his heart, expecting that the prince also knew the result, but he really cherished the king of Yanchang County, knowing that it was hopeless, and he was unwilling not to kneel and beg to the end.

After more than an hour, Emperor Xianping finished the last letter, put the pen on the pen holder, closed his eyes and leaned back, and the inner 'waiter' was busy moving the piece to the side to dry lightly, and he quickly moved behind Emperor Xianping, and skillfully 'kneaded' for Emperor Xianping.

"Get up." Emperor Xianping glanced at the prince lightly and said, "There is no paving here, the ground is cold, watch out for your body." ”

The tone was not unconcerned, but surprisingly calm.

The prince kowtowed vigorously and said in a deep voice: "Ask my father to save the treasure slave!" ”

"What will you do to save him?" The corners of Emperor Xianping's mouth hooked slightly, revealing a touch of mockery, and said, "He is your eldest son, although he is not a concubine, but he is also my royal bloodline, who dares to disadvantage him?" Besides, isn't he good? ”

The crown prince walked a few steps on his knees, and choked up: "Father, the enmity between the Mu family and Lu Ji is as deep as the sea!" What if Feng Nu succeeds to the throne in the future and is called Bao Nu and Zhen Nu? Especially Baonu, in the past few years, Fengnu has often been unable to get along with Baonu, called brothers, like enemies......"

Emperor Xianping said lightly: "According to what you say, if Baonu succeeds to the throne, you don't care if Fengnu lives or dies?" ”

"That's not what the child meant." The prince wiped his face, thought about it quickly, and said sadly, "The palms and backs of the hands are all 'meat', and the treasure slaves, Zhen slaves, and Feng slaves are all the blood and bones of the children, how can the children not feel sorry for the Feng slaves?" It's just that...... It's just that Feng Nu still has Shao Guogong's Mansion, and Mu is the sister of Shao Guogong, with foreign support! And the foreign family of Bao Nu and Zhen Nu ......"

Emperor Xianping smiled: "Fang Cai also said that the three of them are your blood and bones, and they are the children of my Daliang royal family, and now I plan for Feng Nu, so that he can live by the Mu family in the future?" Doesn't the royal family need a serious grandson to live under the fence of a foreign family? ”

Although Emperor Xianping's tone was calm, the anger in it was already surging!

The crown prince was stunned for a moment, and then remedied: "Father, forgive!" The boy said something wrong...... But the hatred between Mu and Green Ji is irreparable, and the child ...... Baonu and Zhennu are half-brothers, but Mu is only one Fengnu, a child...... Children always want to protect their children and daughters! ”

"But Feng Nu is a son-in-law." Emperor Xianping was still calm, almost amiable, "He is your only son-in-law, I Da Liang follows the ancient system, and the son-in-law is the most important, when your grandfather was the emperor, if it wasn't for King Yan and King Qi to do too much, there was a rebellious plot 'chaos' heart, which was not tolerated by the previous emperor, and this throne was categorically not my turn!" ”

He looked at the crown prince and said slowly, "If you are only my eldest son, this East Palace will not be your turn to live, understand?" ”

The prince's whole body was shocked!

He raised his head and touched the calm and unwavering face of Emperor Xianping, and after a while, he said in a deep voice: "Ask my father for guidance!" ”

"Huh?"

"The child wants to know...... Where did Bao Nu lose? The crown prince said with pleading and despair, "My father didn't care about them before...... The queen mother is also ...... The child wants to know, what did Baonu do to disappoint the father and mother? ”

Seeing that Emperor Xianping was silent, the crown prince sobbed regardless of his manners, "The father said that the child can become the prince because he is the eldest son, but the child thinks that although the father and the emperor value the grandson, he will not support Fengnu for this...... I begged my father to read it for the sake of father and son, and told the child...... Okay? ”

Emperor Xianping glanced at him with pity, paused for a moment before saying, "You love Baonu so much, don't I love you?" But I love you, that's why I want to help you...... From mother and son, Lu Ji is too far to go to the crown princess, and Bao Nu's heart is full of strength, and he is definitely not a candidate who can inherit the unification! Because you doted on his mother, you cultivated him, but you brought disaster to him! ”

The prince lost his voice and said: "Feng Nu is not better than Bao Nu in terms of intelligence, but he is used to being gentle and humble, Bao Nu...... Bao Nu is not a rebellious person! ”

"You're eccentric." Emperor Xianping closed his eyes, and then opened his eyes, "But I and your queen mother can see clearly!" ”

Seeing that the prince still didn't believe it, Emperor Xianping raised his hand, and the inner 'waiter' who was originally pinching his shoulders was busy, took a step back, and the emperor ordered: "Go and bring the record of the fighting poems at this year's peony 'flower' meeting." ”

The inner 'waiter' said respectfully: "Yes! He immediately walked to the bookshelf on the side, took out a stack of Bai Xuan, and returned to Emperor Xianping, but Emperor Xianping did not answer, but said, "Show it to him." ”

The prince knelt on the ground and finished reading the record of this battle poem in Tianxianglou, and was stunned for a moment before saying: "The father and the queen mother lost this game for the treasure slave?" But Feng Nu has not lost before. ”

"What's ahead doesn't matter." Emperor Xianping said lightly, "You just need to look at the last two songs of Yongqinglong Lying Ink Pool and Yao Huang." ”

The prince hurriedly turned to the end and carefully considered it, but he still didn't know the essentials, so he had to ask: "The child is dull, ask his father for guidance!" ”

Emperor Xianping looked at him deeply, with a hint of disappointment in his eyes, but he still said, "You read it again." ”

"Chen Zirui's "Yongqing Dragon Lying in the Ink Pool": Thousands of purples and thousands of reds are not competing for 'spring', and the master of Shaohua is brought out. The galloping green dragon also came to lie down, smiling and seeing the colorful. The prince muttered and read, "Ning Shaobi's "Yongyao Huang": The white goose ink pool breaks the 'spring' water, and the sleeping crane purple building waits for the sky. All of them are the 'colors' of the world, but there is only the name of Yao Huangguan. ”

After reading it, the prince said in a low voice, "Please forgive the child for being insensitive, the child thinks that Ning Shaobi is just opportunistic." ”

“…… I thought that the second sister was extremely eccentric. Emperor Xianping was silent for a moment this time, and then said slowly, "I don't want you to be like her, but the second sister is just the eldest princess, and her eccentric Ning Jiu, although she is a little sloppy, but she is extremely measured, she knows what she can and can't commit, and it is not in vain that the second sister is partial to him, for a marquis, it is enough to know the proportion, and it doesn't matter if other places are almost better." Da Lang, you are the prince of a country, how can you be so confused? ”

Seeing that the prince bowed his head in shame and was silent, Emperor Xianping let out a long sigh and said after a while, "Although these two poems are not written by Baonu and Fengnu themselves, it can be seen that they have their respective 'temperament'!" ”

"Chen Zirui's Qinglong lying ink pool, with 'hold', 'smile', 'dedication' to highlight the dignity of the green dragon......" Emperor Xianping said this, and the prince was busy arguing for the king of Yanchang County: "Father and emperor forgive!" Chen Zirui thought that the green dragon was really 'confused' by the atmosphere of fighting poetry at that time, and the treasure slave had no heart of submission! ”

Emperor Xianping sighed: "Since ancient times, the true dragon has been used as a metaphor for the Son of Heaven, the green dragon is only the main side, and the descendants of me are more than a green dragon, and I will not be able to tolerate it!" ”

Seeing that the crown prince was silent, the emperor continued, "I'm not talking about the green dragon! It was Chen Zirui who used those three words to highlight the dignity of the green dragon, and the treasure slave had a happy 'color' on his face. ”

"Look at Jiulang Yong Yao Huang's song again." Emperor Xianping narrowed his eyes and said lightly, "Jiulang also grew up with you, you should know that this kid has good talents, but he just doesn't want to pay attention!" Today, your aunt said that although he doesn't care, his talent is there, and he is better than others in casual learning...... Your aunt said this before, but I didn't take it to heart, and now it seems that your aunt is really right! ”

The crown prince said in a low voice: "Please ask my father for advice!" ”

"White Goose Snow Lotus, Qinglong Lying Ink Pool, 'Spring' Water Green 'Wave', Sleeping Crane Fairy, Purple Heavy Building, Rain Over Azure ......" Emperor Xianping slowly counted, "It is the name of all the peonies that have been sung on the Baonu side in the six games, Chen Zirui 'wants' to suppress the Fengnu side with the momentum of the green dragon, and hides the killing with 'laughing and seeing the colorful' 'color', but Jiulang is light and light, and the first sentence also brought the Qinglong Lying Ink Pool in, and none of the six peonies in the six rounds were missing! ”

He looked at the prince, "The names of these six kinds of peonies take the words that can be connected into a scene, and the 'color' is distinct, not to mention the deep meaning, this hand alone has been ingenious...... But it was the last two sentences that made me and your mother make up their minds! ”

Emperor Xianping said this, if the prince still didn't understand, he would have been cultivated as a prince for all these years, but the prince understood, but his face became more and more unwilling: "Ning Shaobi has always been stubborn, maybe this is his unintentional move!" What's more, Fengnu has not lost to Baonu before...... Father, Baonu ......"

"Shut up!" Emperor Xianping said lightly, "Jiulang is an unintentional move, but you should also know Feng Nu's next borrowing role?" At that time, there were many scholars downstairs, but Fei Baonu didn't know? Chen Zirui's song about the green dragon lying in the ink pool, can't it be played on the topic? His poems are even more before Ning Shaobi! As soon as Ning Shaobi finished 'chanting', Feng Nu personally came to the window and leaned on the railing to connect Dou Shi with the Zhuo family's talented 'daughter' who was in a lot of trouble in Chang'an - but what about Bao Nu? After Chen Zirui became a poem, he happily waited for the winner at the table...... Based on this alone, how much worse is his qi pattern than that of Zhifeng Nu? ”

Emperor Xianping looked at the crown prince sternly, "You just said it yourself!" Bao Nu and Feng Nu are like enemies because of each other's biological mothers! Although the two of them are brothers, they have done a lot of things to tear each other down openly and secretly...... Therefore, in the Tianxiang Pavilion, the 'flower' will be held, and what Bao Nu is thinking about is defeating Feng Nu! He only saw this, although Feng Nu remembered to fight him, he didn't forget to share his worries for the court! This is the gap between vision and quantity! …… The incident in Qujiang caused a storm in the city overnight, and the little Qi Niang of the Zhuo family didn't say that she was a 'woman' in Jiangnan, and there were not many people who had even seen her! I didn't expect that Chang'an would actually become the first talented 'woman' in Jiangnan, and her momentum was 'forced' to Xiao Banniang! This matter, why do you think no one in the court answered those scholars?! ”

The prince was in a cold sweat, he didn't dare to answer, and he couldn't answer, he thought bitterly: Green Ji, Bao Nu, Zhen Nu, what should I do now, so that I can protect you from peace and security in this world?

Under the 'forced' gaze of Emperor Xianping, the prince didn't dare to say anything, but he silently thought in his heart: I will never allow anyone to hurt your mother and son...... Even the father and the queen mother, I will protect you with all my might.

He clenched his fists hard.
