Lan Yuan was sitting in the warm pavilion reading, when he suddenly saw a few faint rays of light from the paper window of the black hole. He stood up in astonishment, and with a flick of his sleeve, he extinguished all the candles; When the door was opened, the prince was already standing in front of him.

"I'm going to see my father later," he said, taking off his clothes, and went straight into the house, and sat down on the edge of the bed, "so he was anxious to ask the gentleman for advice." ”

After hearing this, Lan Yuan repeatedly begged for lanterns from the guards outside the door and hung them on the wooden hangers against the wall.

"Your Highness, please speak."

The prince immediately took out the book on his body and put it under the lantern: "Lan Waiter, do you see clearly?" This is a recital jointly signed by the court meeting. Usually they report it to Liu Zhennian, but today it was sent to me. At first, I was complacent, but the more I thought about it, the more scared I became, and I didn't dare to act casually. ”

Lan Yuan was also surprised, flipped through the book in his hand a few times, and suddenly his eyes widened.

"What comes to mind?" The prince picked up the lantern and shook it in front of his face.

"Your Highness, this is clearly a delaying tactic set up by the Liu Party! They knew that the emperor was still hesitating, so they didn't dare to go in person, for fear that the emperor would not come to the stage; And seeing that you and Your Majesty are related to each other, even in front of everyone, you can also use family affairs as an excuse, and you don't need to make a hasty decision. In this way, after a long time, Niu Yuan's generation has a chance to breathe. ”

"Father...... Would you really do that? The prince put his hands behind his back and looked sad, "He's an old man who has to drag it out again and again, isn't he willing to thwart the Liu Party and regain power?" ”

Lan Yuan cautiously replied: "This is a family matter of His Royal Highness, how dare the courtiers guess arbitrarily!" However, it is always good to be cautious as a son of heaven. ”

The crown prince still shook his head in confusion, and sighed heavily: "I see that my father is about to be half a hundred years old, and he is starting to be confused!" Although the side matter is urgent, it is not a fire to burn the eyebrows, firearms or something really so important? The new policy benefits the country and the people, this is true, but after all, the government is out of the Liu Party, and I have some scruples. They took the emperor's edict to earn their reputation, and in the end they wanted to take away the world of my family, who can swallow this evil breath! I didn't think about the country's society, but I didn't get a response from my father at all...... Alas, he never had the same heart with me! ”

"Your Majesty, it's time to leave, it's not too early!" The guards outside reminded loudly.

"Shout what to shout! Shut up! The prince was depressed in his heart, how could he want to listen to others interject, and roared back angrily.

Lan Yuan hurriedly knelt down on the bed: "Your Highness is still young, and there is a lot to be done in state affairs, why do you complain like this!" What's more, the people who want to do what the willow thief wants, the power is just a minister, and the people's hearts do not belong to the Liu family, so why worry about seizing the throne? I hope that Your Highness will obey the holy order and have no doubt about your kindness. ”

The prince was unhappy, and helped Lan Yuan up and said, "Lan Shiyu doesn't need to be so nervous, this king only talks casually, and has no other intentions." Let's talk about the current situation first. ”

"The best way at the moment is to go to the Inner Servant Province and bother Shen Gong to send a eunuch to play. Stay away from these messes and let them fight on their own, lest they affect you. ”

"Is Mr. Lan confused?" The crown prince said anxiously, "We must rely on these ministers to restrain the arrogance of the Liu Party!" Now that you don't care about it, what will it become? I personally went to the inner garden to meet the emperor, and if I could persuade him, I would explain the reason and make him make a decision as soon as possible! ”

Lan Yuan saw that his gaze was firm and difficult to stop, so he honestly closed his mouth and returned the book to him.

"The son of the emperor to meet his father!"

The prince raised his loud voice and knelt on the blanket at the door of the inner room, his head touching the ground.

The emperor still sat behind the open screen as usual, even when he saw his own son.

"I heard that today's court meeting, and there was another opposition to the recital...... Yes, agreed? ”

"It's a book by Jiewenwu, and everyone thinks there's nothing wrong with it, so Liu Xiang asked me to hand it over." The prince didn't dare to raise his head at this time.

"That's fine...... "The Emperor nodded a few times, "and put this aside for now." You haven't been here for a long time, and I'm just about to talk to you. Get up. ”

The prince was silent for a moment, then answered, and slowly got up, and saw that the room was full of bright lights and candles, and there was a red and yellow light.

"Manager Shen Jing, I'll talk to the prince for a few words, you can go out." The Emperor looked at the only eunuch with him, waved his hand slightly, and the latter withdrew in recognition of himself.

"Father, the son took this thing for you...... The conversation is not very convenient. The prince's eyes were fixed only anxiously on the screen.

"Conversation...... It's not gossiping with you. The Emperor's tone was very serious, "Hand me the book." ”

The prince didn't dare to disobey his order, took out the book from his arms, and walked over quickly.

"Here, go back."

The emperor's reprimand frightened the prince into sweating, and he really didn't dare to take one more step, and put the song on the nearby pear wood table.

The Emperor reached out and took the recital, as if he had read it once, then put it back in its place and asked, "What do you think of it?" ”

The prince was a little stammered: "Er, Erchen don't know ......"

"You're a prison prince!" The emperor lowered his voice as much as he could, and roared angrily, "You came to this position, are you eating, drinking, and having fun in the East Palace!" ”

This low roar was like a piercing sword, which provoked the prince to kneel on the ground again, and his limbs kept trembling: "Erchen thinks that Jiewenwu's performance is extremely audible, and the country's use can no longer withstand the toss......"

"Hmm......" the Emperor's voice cooled again, "do you really think so?" ”

"Your Majesty, the minister really thinks so!" The prince gritted his teeth and kowtowed twice.

"Then sink this matter down first, and I'll wait before I make an idea, you can go."

"Keerchen still has a few words from the heart." Although the prince was extremely frightened in his heart, he still couldn't forget the purpose of this trip.

"Say."

"Your Majesty," the prince climbed two steps forward and persuaded with tears, "the momentum of the Liu Party has eroded into the bones, and it will hurt the country, I don't know why I don't notice!" Usually it's just a mermaid, but my father and son can't afford to mess with it; Today, you can obviously make an early decision, but if you don't play this new deal, you hesitate in every way, didn't you give Liu Dang a chance to breathe? I hope that Your Majesty has decided on this national policy and will give some explanations to those loyal ministers! With that, he suddenly felt that his brain was blank, and he had to sob.

"Bold!" The emperor snorted like a thunderbolt, "How do I decide, I have the final say, what are you going to do?" What 'Liu Party', what 'loyal ministers', are you saying that I don't know people and let my friends go? Say! ”

"You and your sons are father and son, but how do you always look at outsiders?" The prince was still in tears, and said in a choked voice, "Erchen went to the soup for you, and his father is one heart!" ”

"I don't want to hear you say anything more...... Get out. The majestic voice was still as iron as iron.
