In a word, the entire Xiao Mansion was silent.

I don't know how long it took before Tang Ruji said in a trembling voice: "Lord Xiao, this ...... What does that mean? ”

Xiao Feng said lightly: "Qiaoqiao doesn't marry the prince, she doesn't marry the emperor, her biggest limit is to marry an idle prince." That's already my limit. ”

The two princes were also stunned, and couldn't help but look at Qiaoqiao. It's a pity that Qiaoqiao's head was stuffed back by Qiaoniang and was blocked tightly.

What does the throne mean to the prince? means everything.

Yan Shifan said to King Jing, when you become the emperor, you have everything, including the girl you like.

In a sense, Yan Shifan did not deceive King Jing. Whichever woman the emperor has a crush on, as long as he is willing to be shameless, this woman will definitely be his.

Not to mention Cao Cao, even those Ming Monarchs and Holy Lords, this kind of thing is not less. Tang Taizong robbed his brother's daughter-in-law, and Tang Xuanzong robbed his son's daughter-in-law.

Song Taizong robbed the daughter-in-law of Empress Li...... Of course, Zhao Er is not a Ming Monarch in the eyes of most people.

These examples all show that for the emperor, liking a woman, whether he can get your heart or not, and the person who gets you is not a problem.

Moreover, women are only the most inconspicuous benefit of the throne, and the throne means the power of life and death, and it means doing whatever you want.

Even if you are the laziest emperor, as long as you are not unlucky to be born at the end of the dynasty, you can also be a name for ruling by inaction, and the people will thank you for not being a faint king.

After a while, Gao Gong pulled King Yu, and Tang Ruji pulled King Jing, and ran away as if fleeing for his life. King Yu turned around three times in one step, and King Jing's feet dragged out a mark on the ground.

"Qiaoqiao, you wait, I will discuss it with my mother, I will definitely come back!"

"Me too!"

In the house, the old three gathered. After listening to Lu Bing's report, Jiajing couldn't help frowning.

"I originally wanted to save some snacks and let them sift through the list sent by the Zongren Mansion and choose the princess candidates.

The two of them really have a lot of eyes, and they are all eyeing Xiao Feng! Two princes propose to a woman, what kind of system does it become? Don't be afraid of other people's jokes! ”

This is a matter in the palace, Lu Bing is inconvenient to speak, but Huang Jin has to speak.

"Long live, the two concubines are not all going to Xiao Feng, as far as the old slave knows, it is also true that the two princes like Qiaoqiao, not for a day or two."

Jiajing sighed: "Of course I know. In fact, I am reluctant to ask directly about this matter, and there is a reason for this.

I once snubbed King Yu, and King Jing now has few supporters. I don't want to favor one over the other, and I don't want the courtiers to be cranky because of this. ”

Huang Jin thought for a while: "Qiaoqiao was born in slavery, although Xiao Feng has already taken off the slavery status of her mother and daughter, there is still no precedent for being a princess."

Xiao Feng is unwilling to let Qiaoqiao marry into the royal family, long live may as well use this as an excuse to ask the two princes to give up. ”

Jiajing suddenly said: "You say, Xiao Feng proposed that if he wants to marry Qiaoqiao, he will publicly give up being the prince, is there any other intention?" ”

This topic is too sensitive, and the two spirits frowned, pondering and pondering, unable to understand the situation, but they refused to speak.

Jiajing smiled angrily: "You two...... It's not as good as Xiao Fengshi! He dared to say bluntly that there was intrigue in the harem, and Qiaoqiao couldn't survive.

Actually, I asked him for this. No matter which one becomes the prince or the emperor in the future, I hope he can save the other.

It's just that he uses such a method, and I don't know if it's appropriate. With a woman, deciding the choice of the throne is too child's play. ”

Since Jiajing has spoken out, if he doesn't talk about his heart, he will seem too unfriendly.

You can't keep saying that the emperor treats you as a friend, you are stupid to really treat the emperor as a friend all the time, that is a fool.

But when the Emperor made it clear that at this moment, you were going to treat me as a friend, then you had to act like a friend, or you would be a fool.

This is the scale, and only those who can grasp this scale are qualified to be treated as friends by the emperor.

Yan Song, Lu Bing, Huang Jin, and Xiao Feng are all people who have a good grasp of this scale. So at this time, Lu Bing spoke first.

"Long live, in the opinion of the minister, Xiao Feng's hand is actually extremely clever, and he is indeed worrying about long live."

Jiajing raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Oh? Why? ”

Lu Bingdao: "First, as soon as Xiao Feng said this, first of all, the attitude of the two concubines will change greatly, and they will change from strongly supporting the two princes to propose marriage to Qiaoqiao, to trying their best to dissuade them.

In this way, the two concubines changed from fighting to not fighting, and even retreated, which first solved the urgent need of Xiao Feng's choice, and they could consider it calmly. ”

Jiajing nodded: "This is natural, it is estimated that the two concubines are already busy choosing another concubine for the two princes at this time." ”

Lu Bing nodded: "Second, Xiao Feng's statement also expresses his impartial attitude, avoiding random speculation in the court and setting off camp disputes."

Although Yan Song's father and son are gone, King Jing is still the prince and is still loved by Banzai, and many of the officials who originally supported King Jing are still supportive, but they are not as united and obvious as before. ”

This is indeed what a friend said, Jiajing was very satisfied, and nodded slightly, in fact, the Yan Party supports King Jing, everyone knows it, but Lu Bingming said it.

Lu Bing continued: "The third and most important point is that Xiao Feng is indeed fulfilling his promise to Banzai and helping Banzai protect his son.

Of the two princes, one of them will always be the prince and the emperor in the future. The one who is the emperor is naturally not dangerous, and the one who is in danger is the one who can't be the one.

Xiao Feng regards Qiaoqiao as a family member, if the one he can't be becomes his family, he will naturally do his best to protect him.

And the one who became the emperor, even if he didn't miss the brotherhood, there was still Xiao Feng's master-apprentice love. Even if Xiao Feng and Long Live soared, Xiao Feng had a lot of friends. ”

Jiajing smiled and nodded, this assumption is good, especially the part where I and my junior brother soared.

Lu Bing said that he would not say it here, and deliberately left two sentences for Huang Jin.

The emperor wants the two of them to be friends enough, and he talks too much, and it seems that he is too much of a friend, so it inevitably seems that Huang Jin is not enough friends.

Huang Jin knew it, and he bowed slightly at the moment: "Long live, Lord Lu is right, and the old slave also has some experience to add." ”

Jiajing was really happier, and felt that Huang Jin was also a good friend: "No matter what it is, just say it when you think of it, don't have any scruples." ”

"Long live, in fact, Xiao Feng's move also has a hidden meaning, the old slave just thought of it, and couldn't help but admire it very much.

If the two princes give up on Miss Qiaoqiao, the matter will be resolved naturally.

But if there is really one who refuses to give up, then the position of the long-lived prince will naturally be another, and the country will be decided. ”

Jiajing thought for a while: "Wouldn't the prince chosen in this way be wrong?" Is it too child's play? ”

Huang Jin shook his head: "Long live, can the prince who is willing to give up the throne for a woman really become the future emperor of the Ming Dynasty?" ”

A word woke up the dreamer, Jiajing let out a long breath and looked at his two old friends with great satisfaction.

"Not bad, not bad. Giving up the throne for the sake of a woman, such a prince is more suitable to be an idle prince, if he really becomes an emperor, it is not the blessing of the Ming Dynasty. ”

Lu Bing knew that he had behaved smart enough today in order to be enough friends, and it was time to pretend to be stupid.

"Hooray, if the two princes are willing to give up the throne and marry Qiaoqiao, then Xiao Feng's trick is useless, what should he do?"

Jiajing smiled: "You, you are smart, and you are confused for a while." Even so, it's just a return to the previous situation.

There are four outcomes of a scheme, the worst of which is nothing more than consistent with the status quo, and the other three outcomes solve the problem.

Such a plan, what else do you want to ask for, in a hurry, how can there be a plan that is exhaustive, you really treat Xiao Feng as a god. ”

Lu Bing nodded again and again in shame, saying that Banzai is wise, and the minister is really far away, and he still needs to learn from Banzai.

Huang Jin sighed secretly, this stupidity was pretended by Lu Bing first, and it was not good for him to pretend again. It's smart to pretend to be stupid alone, and it's really stupid for two people to pretend to be stupid together.

At this time, it was not only Lu Bing who was pretending to be stupid, but also Qiaoqiao. The problem is that everyone feels that she is not pretending to be stupid, but really stupid. In the matter of men and women, it is too stupid.

Liu Tong originally wanted to stay and have an in-depth discussion with Xiao Feng about the prince's proposal, and by the way, he secretly asked which Qinglou Xiao Feng went to, it was so secretive that the whole mansion couldn't find him, in case he needed it.

But Mrs. Liu didn't give him a chance, knowing that Liu Tong's IQ was estimated to be of little help, so she explained to her daughter and pulled Liu Tong away.

Liu Tong was very unhappy, feeling that Mrs. underestimated herself, and muttered her face along the way, and Mrs. secretly stuffed a big box for him.

Liu Tong stretched out his hand and touched it, it was very hot, swaying, and heavy......

"Xiaoxue packed all the sea cucumbers for you, I'll give you a hot glass of wine to drink when you go home, hurry up, the sea cucumbers should be cold in a while."

Liu Tong nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, yes, go quickly, go quickly!" ”

So at this time, in Liu Xue'er's room, a group of women and Xiao Feng surrounded Qiaoqiao in the middle and asked her what she thought.

Qiaoqiao's big eyes looked at this, looked at that, and didn't speak, grinning and not caring.

Xiao Feng looked at Qiaoqiao and was very emotional. The little girl who wore two buns and carried a cloth taller than her head to the streets and alleys to sell grew up.

Although it has only been three years, Qiaoqiao's height has pulled up a big section, and her persistent love for buns has made her still maintain her chubby face when she was a child, which is even more Q bomb than Liu Xueer's.

I don't know when it began, Qiaoqiao no longer chased after him like a fart, and the shouting of "master, master" was endless.

I don't know when it began, Qiaoqiao learned to look at herself from a distance, learned to knock on the door before entering her and Liu Xueer's house, and no longer broke into the door like Wangcai.

I don't know when it started, Qiaoqiao also had her own thoughts, and her seemingly nonchalant face clearly had a trace of confusion and contradiction.

Xiao Feng was suddenly very dissatisfied with himself, just like a father who was busy with his career and neglected his daughter's growth.

Suddenly, one day, I found that my daughter had grown up and was no longer the little bean bag that stuck to her.

Qiaoqiao must have wanted to talk to herself. But since he became Jiajing's junior brother, he has been doing this and that non-stop, going here and there, dying and living, dying and living, marrying a wife and getting rich......

Xiao Feng subconsciously went behind him to pat Qiaoqiao's head, his hand stopped in mid-air, pretended to stretch, and withdrew it again.

"Qiaoqiao, you tell me the truth, these two boys, who do you like?"

Qiaoqiao grinned: "I like them all, and I don't like them." ”

Qiao Niang patted her lightly on the back: "This child, the master asked you about serious things, and you answered well." ”

Qiaoqiao's eyes flashed: "Why isn't what I'm talking about serious?" ”

Zhang Yunqing straightened his chest and said very maturely: "Stupid, either you like it or you don't like it, how can you like it and don't like it?" ”

Qiaoqiao tilted her head and thought about it, feeling that it was very difficult to explain, so she looked at Xiao Feng.

"You must know what I mean, sir, right? It's like buns, I like it very much, but I don't like it when I can't eat it.

If the bun is steamed well, I like it, and if the bun is not steamed well, I don't like it, isn't it easy to understand? ”

Xiao Feng was stunned for a moment, and slowly chewed Qiaoqiao's words, as if he had an understanding.

"They have times when you feel good and times when you feel bad.

When they're good, you like it, and when they're bad, you don't. ”

Qiaoqiao nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, that's it." When Yuwang talked to me about national affairs seriously, I didn't like it.

When King Jing complained to me all day long that everyone helped King Yu and didn't help him, I didn't like it either.

When we eat and talk together, I like it all. ”

Xiao Feng smiled and nodded: "Then if you had to choose, which one would you choose?" Which one do you prefer? ”

Qiaoqiao was surprised: "I like them all, why should I choose one?" ”

For a while, the women opened their mouths, and they couldn't hear anything clearly in the room for a while, and in the end, Zhang Yunqing relied on his voice to gain the upper hand.

"Stupid! You've got to pick one! How can there be two things that I like! I'm sure you have something you like better! ”

Qiaoqiao looked at Xiao Feng in confusion: "Master, do you prefer Sister Xue'er, Sister Liu, or Sister Chang'an?" ”

A stone shattered the water in the sky, and the sound of boiling all over the house was like being splashed with a scoop of ice water, and it was silent in an instant.

Liu Xue'er bit her lip and looked at Xiao Feng with a smile; Liu Ruyun's face was buried in his chest, and he secretly looked at Xiao Feng from the corner of his eyes.

In everyone's imagination, maybe Chang An was also holding the coffin board at this time, looking at Xiao Feng with tea.

Xiao Feng's eyes quickly glanced at Qiaoqiao's side, and lowered his head weakly, this is really a fucking proposition.

"I ...... All love ...... I can't tell who I prefer...... Qiaoqiao, now I'm talking about you, don't change the subject! ”

Qiaoqiao raised his head and grinned: "Master, why can you like everyone, Qiaoqiao can't!" ”

Everyone fell silent again, and everyone had a sentence in their mouths: The master is a man, you are a woman!

But no one can say this, Xiao Feng is the only man in the house, and when he says this, it seems very unreasonable.

And the rest are women, and they also feel that as a woman, it is not appropriate to say this kind of long-term man's ambition and destroy their own prestige.

In the end, Qiao Niang spoke: "Silly girl, there is nothing to talk about in this matter." The man has three wives and four concubines, and everyone thinks it's nothing.

But if you like two men at the same time, then everyone thinks you're bad. You're too young to understand the horror of human words. ”

Xiao Feng looked at Qiaoqiao, and finally reached out and patted her head, making up his mind.

"Since we all like it, then we don't choose it! Let them choose!

Whoever chooses you will like you more, and you will naturally like whoever you like more! ”

Qiaoqiao blinked: "Master, whoever likes me more, will I like whoever I like?" Is this true? ”

Xiao Feng nodded: "Qiaoqiao, liking is actually a two-way feeling, even if you don't feel it at first, you will slowly understand later."

Only two-way liking is complete, and it can grow naturally to the end of life. It's hard to like it for a long time. ”

Qiaoqiao nodded as if she didn't understand, and when she saw that everyone was no longer chasing me, she suddenly felt a little hungry, and ran away to the kitchen.

The group of women in the house did not mean to disperse, Xiao Feng stretched: "It's not early......

Zhang Yunqing suddenly said: "Brother Xiao, the coincidental matter is over, now I can talk about the question just now, who is your favorite......

The next day, a not-so-eyed news came from the capital, Zuo Shilang of the former Criminal Department, and Langzhong Liutai of the Criminal Department, were arrested by Jinyiwei for bending the law for corruption and repeatedly convicting unjust, false and wrongful cases.

After Liu Tai was arrested, a large number of cases he had sentenced were also turned over by the Criminal Department, and a retrial was held with great fanfare under the auspices of Zhang Juzheng.

Liu Tai has been in charge of the Criminal Department for many years, and he has really helped Yan Party do a lot of things. Even if it was a case that had nothing to do with the Yan Party, he did not do anything blind in order to collect money.

When the Yan Party collapsed before, many cases had been overturned, and this time Liutai was arrested, and some of the cases he was desperately holding on to were also turned over.

It was very loud for a while, and most people thought that Liutai was really arrested because of these things.

But this vast majority of people by no means include Tan Tong, although Jin Yiwei blocked the news of Xu Fan's shouting that day, Tan Tong keenly felt that this matter must have something to do with that secret.

For this reason, Tan Tong hurriedly wrote a letter to his hometown, asking if there was anyone who could have a relationship with him died, and he could worry about it.

The letter back to him from his hometown was not very polite: "No wonder you have descended all the way from the left waiter of the household department to the middle of the household lang, have you spoken like this?"

The first thing I did when I wrote back was to ask us who died? Your uncle's pig is dead, do you want to worry about it? ”

If Ding worries can't succeed, then he can only be sick. Tan Tong is just a fourth-grade official at this time, and if he wants to report his illness, the procedures are very simple, and he doesn't need the emperor's approval, just report to the ministry for approval.

Gong Hui didn't embarrass him, with a stroke of his pen, he criticized his illness, Tan Tong simply packed his luggage and fled.

As a result, when he went out of the city gate, Zhao Baihu led people to block him.

"Yo, isn't this talking about the same adult, what's the matter, why are you in such a hurry to get out of the city?"

"Well, I'm sick, I'm sick and go home to recuperate."

"It's okay, it's okay, I know a famous doctor, surnamed Chang, who specializes in treating incurable diseases, I'll take you there."
