Chapter 85 Loyalty and Patriotism
Chi Ting returned home full of worries, and as soon as he walked into the hall, the rain poured down from the window.
Everything is just right, if it is one step too late, I am afraid that it will be drenched into soup.
turned around and looked out of the door, staring at it for a long time, and didn't even notice that Qian Lan walked in from behind.
"What are you looking at here? What's so nice about the heavy rain, go clean your hands and get ready for dinner, the two daughters are waiting for you at the dinner table. ”
After speaking, he came to pick up the robe on his body, Chi Ting felt a warm current in his heart, and he took the robe full of moisture and walked inside with her, "Over the years, there has been a lady in the family, and it has been hard for Mrs. ”
"What stupid thing did you suddenly say...."Qian Lan caught a glimpse of his solemn expression, "But what happened to the court?" ”
The door was in front of him, and Chi Ting saw the two daughters from a distance and shook his head at her.
As soon as he walked in, he raised a smile, "Sui He, Jiahe, Daddy is delayed in the palace, so he came back late, are you hungry?" If you're hungry, move your chopsticks. ”
Chi Suihe and Chi Jiahe's eyes had been glued to him since he came in, and the smile on Chi Ting's face stiffened, "What's wrong?" Why do you keep staring at Daddy? ”
"Daddy, are you hiding something from us? What happened to the DPRK? Is the emperor embarrassed you in the palace? Chi Jiahe asked three questions in a row, and the more he asked, the more anxious he became, and he couldn't sit still.
Chi Suihe pressed her hand and poured a cup of tea in front of him, "Father drink saliva first, and say slowly, we are not in a hurry." ”
Chi Ting glanced at Qian Lan.
The latter spread his hands innocently: "Your two daughters will come and wait for you in the afternoon, I don't know anything and don't say anything." ”
Chi Ting looked at the three most important women in his life in front of him, couldn't cry or laugh for a while, drank the tea in front of him, and sat down with a smile.
"I've always asked others dumbfounded, but today it's my turn to be questioned by Xingshi, hahahaha It's also strange."
Chi Jiahe: "Daddy, don't change the topic, the envoys of the Jin Kingdom will visit in two days, and there is also the prince of the Jin Kingdom in the list of envoys who will visit this time, why does the prince come if he just walks routinely, and what are the actions of the court?" ”
Chi Suihe's eyelids jumped when she heard this, her tone was really a bit like she was asking the teacher for sin.
Harem women are not allowed to interfere in politics, and they are also placed in the back house.
Chi Ting was stunned by her question, Chi Suihe was beating a drum in his heart, and was about to open his mouth to add polish when he saw him laugh.
Chi Ting: "It is worthy of being my daughter Chi Wan'an, Jiahe, as a woman in the boudoir, can see the problem so thoroughly, if she is a man, she will definitely be a big man who can go up to the court and down to the battlefield and leave a name in history." ”
Chi Suihe breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the atmosphere in the room was much lighter, and began to eat the pastries at hand.
"Yes, there has been a change in the DPRK recently, but this change is not from the palace, but from Nanling, and the change before the envoys of the Jin State are coming, it can be imagined."
"Nanling? King Qinan? Chi Suihe bit half of the pastry and screamed.
Chi Ting glanced at her appreciatively, and couldn't help but praise: "The world only knows that my two daughters are as beautiful as flowers, but they don't know that they are not only beautiful, but also so smart and icy. ”
Chi Suihe listened to the words that were going to praise them to the sky, and finally knew why the original was so arrogant and looked at people with his nostrils.
Most of them were praised by their own father.
Chi Jiahe couldn't listen to it anymore, and patted his hand, "Daddy, get down to business." ”
“... Oh, oh it's this King of Qinan, in fact, I don't blame him, I blame me. Chi Ting scratched his head, a little embarrassed.
Chi Suihe bit the pastry and fell into memories again.
King Qinan, the cousin of the current emperor, grew up with Emperor An since he was a child, not his own but better than his own child, and the friendship is as deep as siblings.
Emperor Taishang has many heirs, and Emperor An also took a lot of effort to successfully ascend the throne.
Maybe it's because the road to the throne is too bumpy, this Emperor An always suspects that the people around him want to harm him, sensitive and suspicious, and the people who originally fought for the throne with him have been killed by him regardless of the mouths of the people in the world.
This back and forth, the identity of the only King of Qinan who is still related to him has become delicate.
King Qinan is not a vegetarian, he loyally sent him to the throne but was tempted all day long, and who could stand it for a long time, so he automatically resigned and stayed away from the court.
Emperor An gave him an official position in Lingnan, with no real power, and King Qinan didn't care, he was happy to be an idle prince.
In this way, Emperor An was not at ease, and from time to time he was brought to the capital to beat.
King Qinan was completely chilled at this time, severed his brotherly relationship with him, and vowed never to set foot in the capital again in this life.
Later, I don't know if he still holds a grudge, but he really raised troops to seek power, but the middle way collapsed before the business was started, and Lingnan was just moved by Zhao Hong, who was filmed by Emperor An, to suppress it.
Who is Zhao Hong?
It is the father of Zhao Jinwu, the male protagonist of the original book, the famous old general Zhao.
Both sides are the right and left hands of Emperor An, and the fight is also serious. King Qinan lost his legs and became crippled on this battlefield, and Zhao Hong was also seriously injured and finally died in Lingnan.
Emperor An was furious when he learned of Zhao Hong's death, and even wanted to send troops to level Lingnan, but he was stopped by the courtiers in the court, after all, the people of the world were still watching-
In the end, he could only be trapped in Lingnan, that is, imprisoned in disguise.
This is also the reason why the emperor values Zhao Jinwu so much now, and the connivance and maintenance of him without a bottom line is so serious that there are rumors that he is the illegitimate son of Emperor An.
However, this is all an external statement, and the truth behind it is not even detailed in the original book.
But Chi Suihe knew that Zhao Jinwu was going to break with the royal family of the An Dynasty sooner or later, not long after the Jin envoys visited.
As for the reasons for this rupture ....
“.... Then I found out that it was not only me who was secretly looking for the lost son of King Qinan, but there was another group of people in the court who were also looking for me, and I should be—"
"It's the emperor." Chi Suihe swallowed the pastry and connected it.
Chi Jiahe turned his head: "How does Sister know?" ”
Seeing that they were all looking at him, Chi Suihe continued for a moment: "The emperor hates King Qinan so much, the tiger father has no dogs, how can he let his son be left behind, maybe the reason why King Qinan lost his son is the emperor's ghost." ”
Chi Jiahe said "oh" and continued to pick up: "It's just that something went wrong in the process of this ghost, the son of King Qinan escaped from them, and now there is a rumor again, so the emperor wants to find out the person first, and then-"
"Cut the grass and eradicate the roots!"
Chi Suihe opened his mouth, the two spoke in unison, looked at each other after speaking, and clapped their hands tacitly.
A crisp sound of "pop" sounded at the dinner table, and Chi Ting: "......"
Qian Lan: "......"
Chi Ting and Qian Lan glanced at each other, and they both helped their foreheads with a headache.
It is true that they have also imagined what their two daughters will look like when they grow up, they should be dignified and ladylike fair ladies, and no matter how bad they are, they will be small jasper-
In short, it is not like now, with a calm and fearless face discussing the intrigues of the court and how to kill people at the dinner table.
It seemed to be fine at first, but why did you go off the rails more and more?
The two couldn't help but reflect on their own education methods at the same time.
Chi Ting: "My father and mother, as well as the teacher in the library, have also taught you to be loyal to the monarch and patriotism since childhood, why do you think of the emperor so much?" ”
Chi Suihe was gnawing on the chicken leg without any manners, Chi Ting glanced at her and looked at Chi Jiahe, "You come on." ”
Chi Jiahe was sitting precariously, "Back to Daddy, what my daughter said is just the truth." Loyal to the monarch and patriotism, loyal to the Ming monarch, love is a good country, do not be foolish and loyal, foolish love, this is also what you taught your daughter. ”
Chi Suihe licked the soup on his lips and nodded approvingly.
Chi Ting choked, feeling relieved and worried at the same time.
Looking at the two slim daughters, each with their own edge, he gently instructed: "Sui He, Jiahe, you can't mention the words in this house today, can you understand?" ”
"My daughter understands." Chi Suihe wiped his hands and poured him wine.
"My daughter is measured." Chi Jiahe sandwiched a piece of meat for him.
Chi Ting's chest was filled with happiness, and he felt that it was no problem to fight two more Lin Jin at this time, and the decision in his heart became firm.
"After the visit of the envoys of Jin Yuan is over, Daddy will send you out of the capital and let you go to Jiangdu's hometown for some time."
