Chapter 380: Emperor Xuande's Purpose
Hearing Chu Yechen's words, Yang Jiabei and Yang Chengdong were relieved, and the latter said: "Little sister didn't choose the wrong person, there is something I will tell the prince in advance." ”
"What's the matter?"
"Except for the sixth brother, the other four younger brothers have already written to inform them of this. If the emperor is determined to embarrass the little sister, no matter how the prince chooses, we will not let our sister be bullied! Yang Chengdong said very resolutely.
"When are you going to the letter?" Yang Jiabei was a little surprised, he didn't know about it.
"It's just that after knowing about my little sister yesterday, Dong'er didn't discuss this matter with his father in advance, please don't blame my father."
"What are you doing for your father!" Yang Jiabei did not blame, Yang Chengdong did not tell him in advance, he must have been worried that he would hesitate and mistakenly do this.
"That way, you'll be more sure." Chu Yechen interrupted them, "There are still tens of thousands of troops left outside the city to be stationed outside the city from the army that was withdrawn from the Warat border before, and I will go there today to prepare." After the crown prince's ceremony, the king will invite the old prince and the prince to persuade the emperor together. ”
"Please allow the prince to join the officials in this matter." Yang Jiabei pleaded.
He doesn't seem to have done anything for his daughter, and it's always been the eldest daughter who has been helping the family and helping him as a father.
Chu Yechen hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Okay!" If not, I'm afraid I'll have to go to the last step! ”
After several people discussed, Chu Yechen left the Yang family, he planned to go to the heavenly prison to see Yang Qiaoyue, but he was also stopped, and the Praetorian Guard told him that the emperor had given a death order, and if people contacted Yang Qiaoyue, they would destroy their nine clans.
Chu Yechen couldn't be embarrassed anymore, and told them not to let Yang Qiaoyue be abused in any way, if he hurt a hair, he would also destroy them!
The first guard of the forbidden army responded with a bitter face, this errand was really thankless, and the magnates of the Beijing division were half offended. The Yang family, the king of Nanping, the old prince An, the crown prince, the imperial concubine, the Yin family, and the Huang family, they all wanted to see Yang Qiaoyue, but they all refused, and they all left cruel .......
"If this king doesn't go in, it's no problem for you to bring a message to the princess to this king!" Chu Yechen said with a gloomy face.
The deputy commander of the forbidden army replied helplessly: "It depends on what the prince brings!" ”
"Tell the princess that the king will definitely save her, let her take care of herself, eat and drink well, sleep well." Chu Yechen frowned, and glanced at the deputy commander, "Is it okay!" ”
The deputy commander of the forbidden army was swept away by the cold gaze, and his back was cold, "If it's just that, it's no problem." ”
"Good! Go ahead! This king is waiting for you here! Chu Yechen ordered.
The deputy commander of the forbidden army looked helpless, "It's the prince!" ”
After speaking, he turned around and returned to the secret room of the heavenly prison, and Yang Qiaoyue was meditating calmly.
The footsteps of the deputy commander of the forbidden army interrupted Yang Qiaoyue's rhythm: "My subordinates have seen the princess." ”
Yang Qiaoyue glanced at it and frowned, no one had come in the past two days except for the one who delivered the meal, and he suddenly came over thinking that the emperor Lao'er had a new purpose: "What is the matter with the deputy commander!" ”
"The prince asked his subordinates to bring a message to the princess."
Yang Qiaoyue's gaze, which had been as cold as water, was rippling: "How is the prince's injury?" ”
"Back to the princess, it seems to the subordinates that the prince's body should be fine, and he is full of anger when he speaks." The deputy commander of the forbidden army replied.
Yang Qiaoyue breathed a sigh of relief before asking, "What did he ask you to bring?" ”
"The prince asked the princess to eat, drink, sleep well, take care of herself, and he will definitely save you." The deputy commander of the forbidden army brought the original words.
After speaking, he was about to leave, Yang Qiaoyue said in a deep voice: "The deputy commander stays and calls back to the prince for the palace." ”
The deputy commander of the forbidden army froze in place, and he became their mouthpiece, but he couldn't be offended, so he reluctantly said: "What does the princess want to bring?" ”
"Let the prince rest assured, I'm fine in all this, please think calmly, don't be impulsive, everything has a purpose." Yang Qiaoyue said.
She knew that Chu Yechen must be worried that she was in prison, and maybe she was thinking of some extreme ways to deal with this matter, which she didn't want to see. Before Emperor Xuande announced how to deal with it, it was not to the final extent, and he had to understand the purpose of Emperor Lao'er first.
When the deputy commander of the forbidden army heard this, this could be regarded as helping him reduce the pressure, if the king of Nanping really wanted to do something impulsively, it would be the catastrophe of Dachu.
He surrendered, then got out of the prison and told Chu Yechen what he said.
When Chu Yechen heard Yang Qiaoyue's words, he was thoughtful, and he was relieved to know that she was fine.
In the next few days, he would come once a day to ask the deputy commander of the forbidden army to pass the word and tell her something outside.
The deputy commander of the forbidden army can only get used to this matter, and it is better to help spread the word than to let the king of Nanping go to the prison, after all, the emperor did not say that he could not spread the word.
On the fifth day, the emperor put on a dragon robe, leaned over, trembling and towering to the court, today is the ceremony of the crown prince, how can he insist on going to the court.
The ceremony was carried out by the Ministry of Rites, and after a series of processes, Chu Xuanyan was officially canonized as the crown prince, and Emperor Xuande was in charge of state affairs at the same time.
Some of the ministers are happy and some are worried, they are happy that the ancestral rites have not been abolished, and they are worried that Chu Xuanyan is so young, can he really govern Da Chu. And King Nanping has such a feat, no matter how you look at it, it can overshadow the little emperor.
Whether sorrow or joy, everything is a foregone conclusion in this ceremony.
At the end of the ceremony, Chu Yechen stepped forward and bowed his head: "Your Majesty, the minister's wife is the security of the border of Great Chu, and the matter of blocking the 100,000 army of Wara in the name of a woman violates the ancestral system that women and eunuchs are not allowed to interfere in the government, and now they have been detained in the prison for several days, if they are guilty, please ask the emperor to make a clear decree!" ”
The service hall immediately fell silent for a while, and Emperor Xuande sat high on the dragon chair, holding his breath, coughing violently, his eyes were dark, and he fell on the dragon chair.
The temple was suddenly in turmoil.
"Your Majesty! Emperor! ”
"Doctor! Tell the Imperial Doctor! ”
"It's over, it's over!"
All the ministers did not leave, waiting in the palace, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that Emperor Xuande had run out of oil and lamps, and he relied on one breath to support it, and he would not fall until the crown prince was canonized.
The Temple of Nourishing the Heart
All the imperial doctors surrounded Emperor Xuande, and after checking the pulse, they all sighed, and frequently shook their heads and retreated.
Chu Yechen, Old Prince An, Chu Xuanyan, Zhang Xing'er and others were all waiting by the bedside.
Emperor Xuande slowly opened his eyes and said with difficulty: "Bring Princess Nanping to see me!" ”
Gao Gonggong answered, and immediately trotted to announce the message.
Chu Yechen frowned, what did the emperor want to see Yang Qiaoyue at the last moment, and he didn't say what he invited just now.
Emperor Xuande glanced at Chu Yechen's serious expression, his expression was helpless, and he didn't explain much, he turned his head to look at Chu Xuanyan, "Xiao Yan, you have to be diligent in government and love the people, do your best for the Great Chu Jiangshan, listen to Uncle Wang's teachings, do you know?" ”
"Xiao Yan knows! Grandpa, you'll be fine! Chu Xuanyan's eyes were moist, and tears couldn't help but fall.
Emperor Xuande stroked his head: "I, I am ashamed of your father and son!" Do you blame Grandpa? ”
Chu Xuanyan shook his head: "No, not only Xiao Yan doesn't, but my father has never blamed him." He always said that the emperor's grandfather did everything for Da Chu, and he must have a last resort. ”
Emperor Xuande smiled, smiling like a child, "Ye Chen! ”
"Erchen is here!" Chu Yechen had mixed feelings in his heart, hatred, distress, and worry.
"I'm ashamed of your mother, and I'm ashamed of their family! It's understandable that you hate me, but you have to believe that your father is also forced to do it. What happened back then, I was also deceived by the Qi family and the princess......! Emperor Xuande said with red eyes.
Chu Yechen didn't say anything, what is forced to do it, if he didn't have suspicions, how could a eunuch of the Qi family be blinded.
Emperor Xuande also knew that he couldn't understand that people in this position would change.
When a man is about to die, his words are good. Emperor Xuande is really reflecting on his life at this moment.
He calmed down and continued, "No matter how much you hate me, I want you to serve as an assistant for four years!" This is my last word! ”
Chu Yechen frowned, looked at Chu Xuanyan again, after all, he was the child of the eldest brother, and he was the country of the Great Chu, and nodded: "Okay!" I promise! That....... ”
He wanted to say that he would let Yang Qiaoyue go, but Emperor Xuande coughed violently, and at the same time, Gonggong Gao took Yang Qiaoyue to the Heart Cultivation Palace.
"Your Majesty, Concubine Yue has brought it!"
Chu Yechen and the others immediately looked over, Yang Qiaoyue was still dressed in a light white and blue shirt, and although her complexion was haggard, she was elegant and tidy.
"The concubine knocks on the emperor." Yang Qiaoyue was not annoyed, and she gave a salute.
This bearing made everyone admire.
Emperor Xuande turned his head slightly to look at Yang Qiaoyue, and said in a low voice: "The girl stays, everyone else goes out, and I will talk to her alone." ”
Although the others were puzzled, they also withdrew from the Heart Cultivation Hall one after another.
Chu Yechen's face was worried, Yang Qiaoyue nodded slightly, signaling that he was okay, and then he left.
After everyone went out, Emperor Xuande said slowly: "Do you hate me? ”
Yang Qiaoyue shook her head casually: "It doesn't matter! For those who don't care, there is no hate. ”
"Do you want to know why I did this?" Emperor Xuande muttered.
Yang Qiaoyue originally couldn't figure it out, but the moment she saw Chu Xuanyan she figured it out, "The emperor wants to pave the way for the new emperor, and he doesn't hesitate to be a mediocre emperor before he dies." The relationship between the prince and the concubine and the prince will definitely come to the rescue after ascending the throne. In this way, no matter the Yang family, me, or the prince, they will owe the prince a big favor! ”
Emperor Xuande was stunned, his eyes were full of consternation: "You actually know? ”
"Your Majesty is a good grandfather, a good emperor, but unfortunately not a good father!" Yang Qiaoyue did not answer his words.
Emperor Xuande laughed at himself, "Count? I should have supported him for a few more years, and the road ahead was on his own. You are suffering this because I am really angry that you have changed Chen'er, if it weren't for his refusal, how could these things have happened! ”
Yang Qiaoyue shook her head with a smile, she didn't argue with him, the emperor still didn't understand Chu Yechen's intentions in the end, for the sake of Great Chu, for his eldest brother.
Emperor Xuande's excited face immediately calmed down again, "Anyway, I still want to thank you." I promised Ye Chen before, your two brothers in Guan Shanwei will go back to Jingshi. Xiao Yan has always regarded your eldest brother as a teacher, so he first let him study in the Hanlin Academy for four years, and after four years, he was promoted to Taifu to assist the new emperor. It's a little compensation for you! ”
Yang Qiaoyue said lukewarmly "thank you", who knows what will happen four years later, but it is a good thing that the two brothers can come back from Guan Shanwei.
