Chapter 195: Show Loyalty

The name that has not been mentioned for seven years made the prince cry bitterly, and it also made Emperor Tianqing weak.

Emperor Tianqing pursed his lips and sat there with his expression dark, and although his expression was still gloomy, he did not reprimand the prince for his private possession.

The hall was extremely quiet, and the palace people outside knelt on the ground.

Emperor Tianqing didn't want to face the crown prince directly, and when he looked down, he saw something on the table.

When he came suddenly, the pen in the prince's hand was scattered on the paper when he was stunned, and the ink stained a large circle, but he could still clearly see the list of official positions and officials written on it.

Emperor Tianqing looked slightly stunned, lowered his head and looked carefully, and found that those official positions were vacant after the accident in the previous household department.

Some of the official lists were circled by the prince, and on the official paper, there were several names written under each position.

Some of them were familiar to him, while others were staring at them.

Emperor Tianqing was extremely familiar with the subordinates of the East Palace, and he also knew most of the important officials of the court who followed the East Palace, but on this list, the total number of subordinate princes was only five or six, but the names of other people were densely written all over the paper.

Above the names of the prince's subordinates, two were crossed out as if they were excluded.

The crown prince was angry for a moment before crying, and when he calmed down, he didn't see Emperor Tianqing speak for a long time, and some broken jars were broken: "The son offended the father, if the father wants to abolish the son, just abolish it." ”

Emperor Tianqing: "...... When did I say I would abolish you? ”

is still the king of a country, Emperor Tianqing is a little awkward, and only pretended to reprimand,

"I just said it was just a momentary anger, how can the dignified prince say that it will be abolished?"

"I know that you are affectionate, and I also know that you are kind, but there are some things that the monarch should not be worried about, otherwise it will only become an excuse for others to attack."

The prince was silent and did not speak.

Emperor Tianqing actually didn't believe what Cheng Guogong said at this time.

The prince's affection is something he has always known, and as he said, the prince did not rise when he strangled Yinghui back then, but chose the position of the prince and his father.

This position of the Son of Heaven will belong to the prince in the future, and the remnants of Yingyu want to disturb the court and hate him, so why is it not for the prince, why should the prince go far and seek rebellion against the chaotic party?

Emperor Tianqing didn't pursue Ying's affairs anymore, but only took the things in his hand and asked, "What is this?" ”

The prince didn't want to speak.

On the side, Shen hurriedly said: "Back to Your Majesty, after the accident in the household department, there was a shortage of personnel in many positions in the court, and His Royal Highness saw that His Majesty was worried recently, so he discussed with his grandfather and other old ministers to see if he could first select some suitable people for His Majesty to choose." ”

"In fact, before this, His Royal Highness had already sent a list to His Majesty, this one was drafted later, and it was all about some more important positions, because he was afraid of making trouble about Meng Dehui again, so His Highness did not dare to make a decision easily and hesitated."

Emperor Tianqing pointed to one of the dissolved names and said, "I remember that Tian Baofang was on an errand in the East Palace before, why did you cross him out?" ”

The prince was silent for a moment before he said in a hoarse voice: "Although Tian Baofang is still upright, his ears are extremely soft, and the relationship in his family is complicated, and the clan has also had a private release of Yinzi money, and the household department has just been corrupted, so he is not suitable to go up." ”

"Where's Rodon?"

"He is too tactful, and he has some great achievements, and he can be of some use in some inconsequential positions, but he is not suitable for real power."

Emperor Tianqing listened to the prince's words, and his face softened more and more: "The people on this list are all chosen by you?" ”

The prince replied: "Not all, some of the secondary assistants were selected, and Master Wu also mentioned a few people, and some of them have been delayed in the Hanlin Academy after the new department in the past few years, or they have some practical talents but are depressed for various reasons." ”

He glanced at Emperor Tianqing, pursed his lips and hesitated for a moment before continuing,

"In addition to these, there are a few people who were demoted out of Beijing because of the rebellion that year, and the sons have checked their details, and they have been keeping to themselves all these years, and they are not deeply involved in the rebellion. Cao Yun and the household department were in dire need of capable people in the court afterwards, so the sons discussed with the second assistant to ask their father to re-summon these people back to Beijing......"

As the prince spoke, his voice was gone, apparently as if he had decided that Emperor Tianqing would be angry.

Emperor Tianqing looked at the crown prince's hanging head, knowing that he had just been angry because of Ying's concubine, he actually dared to mention these people.

He suddenly remembered that the prince was stubborn when he was a child, and he would never look back, and in the past few years, he would always quarrel with him because of the old things.

Sometimes it's not a big deal, if the prince can be soft, it will be over, but he never wants to explain more, and there are three elders and four arches, and in the end, it is always the prince who suffers.

Emperor Tianqing folded the paper: "You are bold, you dare to mention it again knowing that I don't like them, and you are not afraid that someone will use this to provoke you to collude with the traitor." ”

The prince said with some anger: "Even if the son doesn't do anything, won't someone still say it?" ”

"Besides, Erchen is the prince, and he is worried about the stability of the Jiangshan Sheji court, and Erchen just wants to help his father select capable people to share his father's worries, so as not to let Meng Dehui, Zhu Ying and others encroach on the court and ruin the foundation left by the ancestors of the Ying family."

"These are all talented people, and they have nothing to do with the past, so it's a pity to let them stay outside Beijing."

Emperor Tianqing was a little complicated by his words, and when he saw that he was rarely angry and even showed his unhappy emotions on his face, he suddenly felt that this son was pleasing to the eye.

Emperor Tianqing sighed: "Get up and talk back." ”

The crown prince looked at him: "Father won't abolish me?" ”

Emperor Tianqing glared at him: "Want to be beaten by the board?" The dignified prince lay on the ground and shed tears! ”

The prince listened to his reprimand, but slightly affectionate, with red eyes, remembering the way he was crying just now, his ears couldn't help but redden, and he quickly got up from the ground.

Emperor Tianqing looked at Shen Ke: "You should also get up." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Shen retreated to stand half a step behind the crown prince, and Emperor Tianqing asked him, "Earlier, it was said that you fell off a horse and fell off a cliff and were seriously injured, but your injuries are better?" ”

Shen said respectfully: "It's already much better, Your Majesty Xie cares." ”

Emperor Tianqing said with some blame as if he was facing ordinary juniors: "You have had accidents one after another during this time, and you almost died when you ran to Jiangnan to stir up the luck of Caoyun, and this time you were injured again, and it is difficult for your grandfather to worry about you when he is a lot older." ”

Shen suddenly smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Weichen doesn't want to, last time His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was concerned about the disaster in Yanling and it was inconvenient to go out of Beijing, so Weichen took this trip in the name of visiting Xie Lao, who knew that he would be entangled in the affairs of the Hu family when he passed through Qizhen, and it was so coincidental that His Majesty sent Xu Lizhen to go, and I was very wronged to eat that meal." ”

"This time the horse farm is even more, Wechen just took his brothers and sisters in the house out for a walk, who would have thought that those thieves would dare to do it at the horse club hosted by the Great Chief, and they would force Wechen to death."
