actually mentioned the second child again......

Sheng Siyan blinked quickly, pursed his lips and chuckled, and said, "Then I will thank the Holy Lord for his kindness......"

Sheng Qiye thought of the nurse he had picked for Sheng Siyan at the beginning, and said with some surprise: "Well, let the Holy Lord help you choose." The holy candle will definitely help you choose the best nurse. ”

“…… Dad, you picked it very well! Sheng Siyan said with a smile, "Although there is a problem, it has nothing to do with you, Dad." After speaking, he quickly changed the topic and said to Emperor Xia Zhao: "Holy Lord, you must thoroughly investigate what you just said." ”

Just now she told Emperor Xia Zhao that his illness was not a disease, but poisoning.

Emperor Xia Zhao nodded solemnly, squinted his eyes, and said with a smile: "I will definitely investigate thoroughly, but before that, others don't need to know." ”

Sheng Siyan and Sheng Qiye nodded together.

After Sheng Siyan and Sheng Qiye left the palace, Emperor Xia Zhao sat quietly in the imperial study for a while before getting up and going to the inner palace.

He went to Qingyang Palace, where the eldest prince lived.

Qingyang Palace is located in the west of the East Palace, and it is the closest palace to the East Palace in the Inner Palace.

When Emperor Xia Zhao abolished Xia Shan's status as a princess, he also moved the eldest prince from Wuweizhai, which was the farthest away from the East Palace, to live in Qingyang Palace, which was closest to the East Palace.

This move calmed down many criticisms inside and outside the court about the deposition of the princess.

……

In the study of the small east room of Qingyang Palace, the female official Yao sat sideways in the brocade beside the eldest prince and taught him to read.

"A gentleman is a gentleman, and he is born from the beginning."

"A gentleman has nothing to eat, and he has nothing to live in. If you are sensitive to things and cautious in what you say, you will have the right way and be right, and you can be said to be studious. ”

"If you don't know people, you don't know people." I'm not afraid that others don't understand me, I'm just afraid that I don't understand others.

"The gentleman is not compared, and the villain is not compared."

The three-year-old eldest prince followed Lady Yao to recite word by word, very attentive.

Emperor Xia Zhao walked in with a smile.

"Holy." The palace maids who were waiting in the room hurriedly bowed and saluted.

When Lady Yao heard the sound, she glanced back, and then stood up with a smile, and said with her head bowed: "The saint is here." ”

The eldest prince got up. looked at Emperor Xia Zhao happily. He said loudly: "Father! ”

Emperor Xia Zhao smiled, sat down beside him, picked up the book in front of him and flipped a few pages, and Wen Yan asked, "The book that Lady Yao told you just now." Do you understand? ”

The eldest prince nodded hurriedly: "Understood!" Got it! ”

"Oh?" Emperor Xia Zhao. "Then I'll test you." said. Flipping through a page of the book, he pointed to the sentence that Lady Yao had just read, and said, "A gentleman's book." This is the birth. What does this phrase mean? ”

The eldest prince wrinkled his brows and thought for a long time, and muttered, "...... I don't know. ”

Female official Yao raised her eyebrows, and was about to speak to relieve the siege for the eldest prince, but Emperor Xia Zhao said gently: "It doesn't matter if you don't know, don't say you know in the future, do you hear?" ”

The eldest prince lowered his head embarrassedly and tapped lightly twice.

"A gentleman is a gentleman, and he is born from the beginning. The meaning of this sentence is that a gentleman is engaged in laying a good foundation, and only with a good foundation can he have a solid way of governing the country and being a person. Emperor Xia Zhao gave a lecture to the eldest prince, and said: "The gentleman is not compared, and the villain is not compared." Do you understand the meaning of this sentence? ”

The eldest prince hurriedly shook his head and said loudly: "I don't understand!" ”

The meaning of this sentence is that a gentleman will only have normal dealings with others, and will not collude with others in private to plot misdeeds. And the villain will only collude with others for some ulterior motives, and will never be friends with people sincerely. Emperor Xia Zhao explained to the eldest prince again.

Lady Yao listened quietly beside her for a while, and sighed: "...... These are all books that the Empress Dowager told the Holy Lord back then, right? ”

"yes." Emperor Xia Zhao nodded, "I will never forget the benefits of the Empress Dowager to me." But......" he glanced at Lady Yao, "the Jiang family is also my mother's family, and I will not treat them lightly." ”

Hearing Emperor Xia Zhao's brainless words, dragging the Jiang family in, Female Officer Yao's eyebrows jumped heavily, and she hurriedly lowered her eyes to hide her gaffe.

She is a smart person, so she naturally understands Emperor Xia Zhao's voice.

"The Holy One is right. The Jiang family is the mother family of the saints, and the saints treat them well at all. Lady Yao thought for a while, put a hand on the eldest prince's shoulder, and said with a smile.

Emperor Xia Zhao stood up and said with a smile: "My illness is finally cured, it's really not easy......"

Lady Yao was inexplicable when she heard this, frowned and said, "With Sheng Qiye's medical skills, it took so long to be cured, should the Holy Lord find someone else to check it out, maybe it's not a disease?" ”

"Not a disease? What is that? Emperor Xia Zhao asked with a smile.

"Everything. Maybe it's poison? Lady Yao said calmly, "The Empress Dowager and the First Emperor also experienced this kind of thing at the beginning. ”

"Oh? The Empress Dowager and the first emperor were also poisoned? Emperor Xia Zhao asked with some surprise. The Empress Dowager didn't tell him at all.

Lady Yao thought about it for a while, ordered someone to take the eldest prince out, and instructed: "The weather outside is good, take the eldest prince to play in the courtyard for a while, and I will call him in later." ”

The palace maid answered, and took the eldest prince to play outside with the chamberlain.

There are only two people left in the study of Xiaodongfang, Yao Nuguan and Emperor Xia Zhao.

"Say it." Emperor Xia Zhao and the others were gone, and then asked softly.

Female Officer Yao lowered her voice and said, "I also heard the Empress Dowager say it once. At that time, the Empress Dowager was still the queen of the old emperor, and the first emperor was still the crown prince. Shortly before the death of the old emperor, both the empress dowager and the first emperor were poisoned. Fortunately, the Empress Dowager had been very vigilant at that time, and she noticed something wrong early, and ordered someone to find an antidote and detoxify. Not long after she and the first emperor were poisoned, the old emperor passed away. ”

"Oh? And what's going on? So who poisoned it? What is the reason? Emperor Xia Zhao asked curiously.

Lady Yao spread her hands and said meaningfully: "I don't know about this. However, the Empress Dowager said that at that time, the old emperor had intended to change the crown prince......"

"Change the crown prince? Who to appoint? Emperor Xia Zhao became more and more interested, "It won't be...... Do you want to change your uncle's position? ”

The emperor had only two sons. One is the crown prince produced by the queen, that is, the first emperor Xia Ming. One is the uncle Xia Liang from the concubine.

If the emperor has the heart to change the crown prince, it will only be Uncle Xia Liang.

Lady Yao shook her head with a smile and said, "I don't dare to talk nonsense." The Empress Dowager didn't say who it was, she only said that the idea of the old emperor was later dispelled by her, and then after the old emperor passed away, the first emperor ascended the throne, and no one mentioned these things anymore. ”

Although there were only a few words, Emperor Xia Zhao felt an unusual bloody storm and treacherous clouds.

He thought for a moment and said, "Uncle is an honest man. Never dare to say a word more. Do one more thing, and don't dare to take a step beyond the thunder pool. ”

"Yes, the uncle has been careful for decades, and even the Empress Dowager has not picked his thorn. It can be seen that the Holy One can rest assured. Lady Yao put away the books on the desk. Stacked on a bookshelf aside.

Emperor Xia Zhao nodded slowly. "Uncle is really not easy, I don't worry about others, but how can Uncle not worry? Let's talk about our Great Xia royal family. Now that there are few men, my uncle and nephew are all the pillars of my Great Xia, so I can't hide in the palace anymore and don't ask about the world. ”

Lady Yao was stunned for a moment, and asked tentatively: "Holy Lord, can you consider taking a concubine to have more children?" Now there is only one eldest prince, only three years old, and I really don't know if I can raise a ...... in Shun Lì."

The infant mortality rate in the Great Xia Dynasty was relatively high.

The folk are more than fifty percent, and the rich and noble families are slightly better, but there is also a thirty percent premature mortality rate.

And the mortality rate of young children in the royal family is sometimes higher than that of the people......

Emperor Xia Zhao smiled, shook his head and said, "No." Although I only have one son, there is no other woman in the palace, but it is safer. He should be able to grow up safely. But if I accept a concubine, not to mention that I have sworn an oath, even if I really accept a concubine, then it will be a question whether my son, whether he can grow up smoothly. ”

Lady Yao sighed.

She grew up in the palace with the Empress Dowager since she was a child.

At that time, the first emperor still had many concubines in the palace, but he only grew up with two princes, namely the crown prince Xia Qi and the second prince Xia Zhao, that is, Emperor Xia Zhao in front of him.

“…… Holy Lord, are you really not ready to have any more children? Lady Yao asked worriedly.

"You have to think clearly, if you have an accident, and the great prince can't grow up safely, then who will this Great Xia country fall into?" Female Officer Yao reminded Emperor Xia Zhao softly.

When the Empress Dowager was in power, she once kept a vigilant eye on her uncle Xia Liang and her family.

But after secretly checking for a long time, the Empress Dowager found that her uncle Xia Liang had no fighting spirit, only liked to eat, drink and have fun, and he was even more of a mess in terms of knowledge.

There are groups of wives and concubines in the palace, just like in the palace, he has so many women, only the son born by Princess Wei grew up safely, and Xia Rui, the concubine born to the side concubine, grew up with Princess Wei. The sons and daughters born to others died one after another.

Such a chaotic palace made the Empress Dowager no longer interested in paying attention.

Emperor Xia Zhao listened to these words relayed by Lady Yao, and said with a smile: "Since the Empress Dowager thinks that there is nothing wrong with the uncle, of course I listen to the Empress Dowager." As for the ...... of the country," he smiled, looked at Lady Yao, and said, "Who belongs to this country, don't worry about Lady Yao." ”

"Holy Lord, Wei Chen doesn't want to interfere with Holy Lord!" Lady Yao knelt down with a plop, "Weichen just hopes that the Holy Lord will not forget the hard work of the Empress Dowager!" ”

"Female Officer Yao, you just need to be good at raising the eldest prince. As for other things, I have my own arrangements. Emperor Xia Zhao stood up, turned around and left Qingyang Palace.

Back in the imperial study, Emperor Xia Zhao took out a piece of paper with the names of several people written on it.

He silently crossed the name of Lady Yao off the paper, and looked at the remaining few people.

If anyone has the opportunity to poison him, it should be among these people.
