Chapter 246: Twists and turns

"Father... Emperor, son...? ”

After Murong became an adult, his body was relatively fat and strong, with a large face, high cheekbones, height and long arms, and the general characteristics of a Xianbei person. Wearing a prince's robe on his body, he looked unusually luxurious, carrying a golden sheath scimitar, which looked extremely majestic, and strode into the palace garden, which made Emperor Yan Murong Xi extremely pleased, and suddenly felt that the crown prince Murong Cheng seemed to have changed as if he had changed a person.

But when Murong Xi was feeling happy and relieved, Murong Cheng made a "poof", knelt on the ground on his knees, and pouted his buttocks.

When Murong Cheng knelt down, he was careless, and the scabbard actually got under the robe, and it stood up from under the robe, as if Murong had grown a tail, and the scimitar also fell from the scabbard, and with a "dang" sound, it hit the gold brick.

Murong Xi's face suddenly darkened, and he looked at the crown prince Murong Cheng helplessly, and his mood of joy and relief became worried and annoyed.

"Father...", a soft and crisp shout suddenly made Murong Xi's mood slightly better.

"Father..."Murong Xiaoxiao, the eldest princess of the Great Yan Kingdom, walked up to Murong Xi and called softly.

"Xiao'er, come to my father's side." Murong Xi ignored Murong Chi and beckoned to Murong Xiaoxiao with a smile.

"Father..."Murong Xiaoxiao snuggled up to Murong Xi's side when she heard this, and said softly: "Father, you... What happened to you? Xiaoxiao..."

Murong Xiaoxiao was so choked that she couldn't speak.

In fact, Murong Xi's age is not very old, he is not yet the age of the sixtieth birthday, but his hair is almost completely white, his body is fat, bald, his skin is wrinkled, his muscles are relaxed, the bags under his eyes are like two fish bubbles, hanging under his eyes, and the wrinkles on his face are criss-crossed.

When Murong Xi was young, he was also a brave general on the battlefield, but his long-term unrestrained pleasure-seeking, alcoholism and overeating made him look like an old man now.

Murong Xiaoxiao hadn't met Murong Xi for a long time, and when she saw her father like this, she couldn't help but feel extremely sad and sad, and her tears couldn't help but fall.

Murong Xiaoxiao is the eldest princess of Dayan Kingdom, titled "Princess Lingshou", and is Murong Xi's biological daughter, but it is not easy to see Murong Xi, the reason is self-evident, Murong Xi almost ignores the government and hides in the harem to have fun, and the harem is almost controlled by the queen Murong Qing, so it is not easy for Murong Xiaoxiao to meet Murong Xi, today Murong Xiaoxiao and Murong Cheng still made money, bribed the ministers, and slipped into the garden from the back door of the palace.

"Xiao'er, do you want to say that your father is old?" After Murong Xi sighed secretly, he first wiped his hands on his dragon robe, and then wiped his tears for Murong Xiaoxiao and said, "Father is not, I usually neglect you, hey, Xiao'er, why did you and Cheng'er come here today?" ”

Murong Xiaoxiao glanced at Murong Cheng when she heard this.

"Father... Father... The emperor, the sons and sisters miss their fathers, therefore, therefore... Come a few days ago... Audience. Murong Cheng was still stammering when he spoke, but he finally expressed his intentions.

"Well, okay, my father misses you too." Murong Xi nodded when he heard this, and asked Murong Chengdao, "Do you just miss your father?" "And... No, I just miss my father..."Murong Xi has been the emperor for decades, although he looks like an old man at present, but his majesty is still there, especially a pair of eyes, which are extremely sharp, staring at Murong Cheng like an eagle's eye, making Murong Cheng retract the words he was about to say.

Murong Xiaoxiao was extremely sad in her heart, glanced at Murong Xi, and then at Murong Cheng, who couldn't support the wall in the mud.

Far from him, that person is eagle-eyed, majestic, that person is his own brother, at this time, Murong Xiaoxiao suddenly remembered that person.

"Cheng'er, you don't have to be afraid." Murong Xi also sighed helplessly, and said to Murong Cheng in a gentle tone as much as possible: "This huge country is about to be handed over to you, you can't wait long, but you... How to govern the country? Have you thought about it? ”

"Father, what do you mean by this? You are still in the prime of life, why do you say such things? Murong Cheng didn't answer, Murong Xiaoxiao looked at Murong Xi and asked worriedly.

Murong Xi waved his hand and motioned for Murong Cheng to answer.

"I..." Murong Cheng also glanced at Murong Xiaoxiao, and then at Murong Xi, before he replied hesitantly: "The way to govern the country... Statecraft... Father... Emperor... The sons don't want to govern the country, the sons just want to live under the wings of their fathers, I... The father is still there, and the sons dare not mention governing the country..."

In fact, Murong Cheng and Murong Xiaoxiao came to meet today, and it was not entirely Murong Xiaoxiao's idea, but also the suggestion of Murong Fu and other ministers of the East Palace.

As for how to respond, Murong Fu Erti taught Murong Cheng face-to-face, and he had already taught Murong Cheng, but the first question was wrong, and Murong Cheng's panic made him at a loss.

The strategy of governing the country or the way of governing the country, how can the ministers of the East Palace not teach him on weekdays? If Murong Cheng usually uses a little dim sum, whether it is right or wrong at this moment, he will be able to answer some of them. But on weekdays, Murong became an eagle leading a dog, fighting beasts and crickets, etc., mingling with the servants of the East Palace, frolicking and playing, and his mind was not on this at all, so he couldn't answer half a sentence at this time.

On weekdays, the little things that entered Murong Cheng's ears like old monks chanting scriptures had already been thrown into Java by him.

"Father will always die." Murong Xi said angrily when he heard this.

"No, no..." Murong Cheng was shocked when he heard this, his face was pale, he just got up, but he knelt on the ground again with a "poof", and he was so worried that he cried out loud, hugged Murong Xi's legs and cried: "My father is the Son of Heaven, the Son of Heaven is long live, how can I live for 10,000 years?" Woo woo... Father, if you... If so, what should the sons do? ”

Murong Cheng was sad, sad, and worried, but he didn't pretend to do it, but he showed his true feelings or was genuinely worried about himself.

Murong Cheng and Murong Xiaoxiao lost their mothers when they were young, and they completely relied on the big tree Murong Xi to shelter them from the wind and rain, otherwise it is difficult to say whether the brother and sister are still alive at this time.

Murong Cheng lived comfortably and freely under this big tree, and once this big tree that sheltered him from the wind and rain fell, he really didn't know what to do.

"Cheng'er, you..." Murong Xi had the heart to reprimand him twice, and even beat him hard, but Murong Cheng's filial piety was indeed from the heart, so he could only sigh in his heart.

"Xiao'er, you say, how to govern the country?" Murong Xi then turned his head and asked Murong Xiaoxiao.

"Me? Father, Brother He knows, I'm a daughter, how do you know?" Murong Xiaoxiao glanced at Murong Cheng and said.

"Say it, no matter what you say, my father won't blame you." Murong Xi said.

"Oh, father, my daughter has read a lot of Chinese books and heard many people say that the way to govern the country is first and foremost in employing and governing people." After Murong Xiaoxiao glanced at Murong Cheng again when she heard this, she replied with some hesitation.

Those old masters in the East Palace, this is what they talk about all day long, Murong Xiaoxiao listened to it on one side, and her ears were about to hear calluses.

"Hehe, what Xiao'er said is true." After Murong Xi heard this, he praised Murong Xiaoxiao, then turned his head to look at Murong Cheng and said, "Look at you, it's not as good as your sister, who is idle all day long and doesn't do anything serious." Let me ask you, can you take Xiao'er's affairs to heart? ”

"Father, what's the matter?" Murong Cheng put his hands on his knees, bent down and asked.

"Of course it's a marriage." Murong Xi glared at Murong Cheng and said: "There is an old saying among the Han people, men should get married, women should get married, these things should not be worried about the father, but... Hey, your Eji died early, and today my father will make the decision for you. ”

Murong Cheng is already an adult and can set up a crown princess, and although he currently has a group of concubines, he does not have a wife, that is, the crown princess.

The crown prince is the prince of the country, and the establishment of the crown princess is also a major event for a country. When the prince marries, the woman he marries and the family behind him will become the prince's person, which means that through marriage, the power of the prince will be strengthened, which will also be beneficial for inheriting the throne in the future.

It's just that the current situation of the Great Yan Kingdom, whether marrying the prince is a good thing or not, is not yet known.

"Father, can you get married?" Murong Cheng said happily when he heard this.

"You could have done it a long time ago." Murong Xi nodded and smiled, "Which woman do you have a crush on?" ”

"Princess Ziyue, the daughter of King Zuo Xian..."Murong Cheng replied rubbing his fat hands.

"What?" Murong Xi and Murong Xiaoxiao exclaimed together when they heard this.

Han rules or etiquette, the same surname is not married, but Xianbei people do not, as long as it is not a direct line, people of the cousin, hall, and the same clan can get married. But the matter of Murong Huiying, the daughter of King Zuoxian of the Great Yan Kingdom and King Murong Bolie of Guanning, has already made a lot of noise among the Beijing teachers at this time, and although Murong Xi lives in the deep palace, he has also heard of it.

Murong Bolie and his wife made a big move to recruit a son-in-law, but the result was that a group of sons and brothers came happily and left in disgrace.

Murong Huiying has a strong personality, who wants to touch this brow? According to Murong Huiying's character, even if the forced marriage is successful, she may die in the cave room...

"Huh? Can't you? If it doesn't work, it's fine. Seeing this, Murong Cheng hurriedly said.

Murong Huiying's beauty is the best in the world, but Murong Cheng is not unseen, there are countless beauties in the East Palace, Murong Cheng is just that, he has also heard of the recruitment of sons-in-law in Zuoxian's palace, so his competitiveness suddenly rises.

You are disgraced, this prince will definitely succeed!
