Chapter 112: After the Establishment
"Sixth brother, do you mean that these three characters were written by the eldest brother?"
King Jing's face was cloudy, but he also subconsciously stabbed the crown prince Li Yuan.
Li Yuan smiled slightly, and did not refute, Li Ji had a trace of regret.
"Third brother, I'm not saying that the eldest brother wrote it, but that the eldest brother can also write, in fact, the third brother can also write, anyone in the world who learns calligraphy, as long as he has learned this kind of calligraphy can write, but it is certain that these three characters are written by the same person."
Li Long's words don't need to be explained too much, everyone present understands that this is the reason why Li Ji regrets it, showing his shallowness and rashness.
"Well, Long'er, that's good!"
Li Zhi nodded, seemingly very satisfied with Li Long's performance, and he changed his words:
"Long'er, you are eighteen years old this year, and you will be nineteen in two months, you can't keep hiding in Qiushan Temple and studying, it's time to share some heavy responsibilities for your father."
"Father, in fact, the minister told the sixth brother a long time ago, let him take on more responsibility for state affairs, and let him be by my side several times to share some things for me, with the talent of the sixth brother, it is a pity not to come out to do things, as a descendant of the emperor's family, he can't be so reclusive, after all, the emperor's family has no private affairs."
Li Yuan grabbed ahead of Li Ji, stepped forward and bowed, and after saying this, he looked at the sixth brother meaningfully.
"Since the eldest brother has said that, the younger brother naturally can't be greedy for pleasure, father, what do you command, the courtiers should serve themselves, or the eldest brother has something to do, and the younger brother can also help take on it."
'Hehe, hehe, this is naturally good, as long as it doesn't delay my brother's affairs, it's naturally good. ’
Li Yuan is like eating a fly, his half-brother has always been not enthusiastic about the government, but like a hermit, he just said it, but also to cater to his father, I didn't expect the sixth brother to agree, if he really gave him a little power from his own hands, he was really reluctant, the most important thing is that this sixth brother is not his own person, many things can not be let him know, he is praying at the moment that his father will not arrange him by his side.
Li Ji was robbed, originally unhappy, but at the moment he gloated.
"Well, since Yuan'er also said so, you also have a heart, and my father will arrange a matter for you, um, but I have to test you first to see if you have that ability."
"Father, please ask the question, in fact, the courtiers are also worried that they are overwhelmed and can't share their father's worries like the eldest brother and the third brother."
The people present were a little confused, they were obviously investigating the case of the art of disgust with victory, why did they suddenly change the assessment of the six princes, they didn't understand Li Zhi's thoughts.
Li Yuan had a very bad premonition in his heart, "The sixth brother is gentle and polite, he just said that he wants to be like me and the third brother, what does he mean, does he think that his ability is comparable to the two of us?" Otherwise, there are eight brothers, why does he say this, could it be that this person has done all the things of forbearance before, but he must not be guarded against. ”
"Well, yes, let me think about what I should test you?"
Li Zhi frowned, but Su Li snickered on the side, "This old fox must already have a topic in his heart, and he is still pretending, sure enough, Li Zhi is not a metrical person." ”
"Hmm. ...... like this"
Li Zhi knocked on his head, as if after careful consideration, he had finally made up his mind.
"You are the prince, and you are not married, you are a person in the palace, and you don't know anything about the affairs in the court, so let's test you with the things in the palace. Well...... Twelve years ago, the queen left, there was no one to lead the harem, and there was no mother to honor the world's main mother, if you want to set up a new queen, what do you propose? ”
Li Zhi said lightly, but there was a layer of wind and waves below, and the matter of establishing the queen, where is the matter in the palace, it has a lot to do with it.
Li Yuan also had no idea for a while, he was the son of the queen, after the queen passed away, Li Zhi has not set up a queen again, which is a good sign for him, at least, in Li Zhi's heart, he owes the queen, and his position as the crown prince also has an extra layer of security......
Li Ji's mother also died early, and he naturally had someone in his heart, otherwise he wouldn't have come out with any poetry and elegance.
Concubine Shu has forgotten that she is suspicious, and her heart is pounding, and now the emperor is most favored except for Concubine Yuan, which is why she is willing to agree to that person.
This matter was also expected by Su Li, but he didn't expect Li Zhi to be so decisive and so understated, he was very glad that he entered the palace today, otherwise, he really underestimated Li Zhi, if so, he was in a very dangerous situation.
"Concubine Yuan! The courtier felt that it was none other than the concubine. She has a quiet personality, does not like to fight, is fair, won the praise of the palace mothers, she is knowledgeable, family history, is the daughter of the university scholar Fan Cheng, by her to lead the six palaces, the mother of the world, will definitely make the country stable. ”
"Father! No! ”
Li Ji couldn't wait to jump out, stopped him loudly, and shrank back in fright to Li Zhi's eyes again.
"Xiao Baozi, you are the head of internal affairs, the things in the palace are relatively clear, and the temperament of the ladies is also understood, tell me, who is suitable to be the queen?"
It seems that Li Zhi is determined to re-establish the queen today, Su Li is guess, in fact, he has already made his own decision, he just wants everyone to say it, and then he will push the boat again.
"The master's affairs, where is the turn to be a slave to talk about."
"If I want you to say it, I'll say it."
"Well, the slave thinks that the emperor's benevolence is all over the world, and the harem mothers are originally smart and virtuous people, and they have been influenced by the emperor, and they are even more virtuous, and they are all so good, such as the Yuan Concubine Niangniang is benevolent, and the Shufei Niangniang is smart......"
"Well, if you put Concubine Yuan first, then you also agree with what Long'er said about choosing Concubine Yuan as the queen."
Everything is very clear, Li Zhi wants to make Concubine Yuan the queen, and Eunuch Bao hurriedly said: "Concubine Yuan Niangniang is certainly capable of being the queen, and other Niangniang is also good, the emperor is wise." ”
"Poof! You cunning eunuch, get out! ”
Li Zhi smiled, it can be seen that Eunuch Bao is really favored by him.
"Yuan'er, Liu'er and Xiaobaozi said that Concubine Yuan is suitable to be a queen, you are the crown prince, what do you mean?"
"The courtiers thought that Concubine Yuan could naturally be a queen in terms of character, but she entered the palace at the age of fourteen, and she has only been three years now, so she is still young
It is difficult to convince the ladies in the palace, in addition, as the queen, she naturally has to preside over a number of sacrifices, with her age and experience, I am afraid that it is difficult to bear, and the courtiers think that the concubine can be the queen, but not now, at least until she is twenty years old. ”
Li Yuan's move is very powerful, he did not go against his father's wishes, and he said it very reasonably, but three years later, it is not possible to say who will be the emperor, even if Li Zhi is still the emperor, there are countless concubines who enter the palace every year, and there are many concubines who have not been favored.
"Yuan'er's mother was also a seventeen-year-old queen, why is it okay? Are you a little selfish when you say this now? ”
