The emperor was in a good mood when he first became a father, and it was the courtiers who felt this change most obviously.

Since the emperor came into power, he has become more and more old-fashioned, and his authority and temper have grown day by day, which has made the courtiers under him suffer.

His Majesty's requirements for administrative efficiency have reached an almost harsh level, and the courtiers have done something wrong, and he has discovered it, although he will not be convicted for it, but it is inevitable that he will be reprimanded in front of the ministers in the Taiji Palace.

But in recent days, the emperor has been shrouded in a mood called joy, and after the dynasty this morning, the emperor brought a few errant courtiers to the Taiji Palace, and for the first time he didn't say anything, just stiffened his face and asked them to write a chapter to report.

These poor ministers were full of suspicion, and until they were outside the palace, no one came up to take them down to play the board, so they looked at each other, "Your Majesty's temper has improved a lot since he had a prince." ”

All the ministers bowed their heads, and one of them looked back with palpitations, and said with a sigh of relief: "Alas, man, after becoming a father, it is naturally very different from before becoming a father...... I have never seen His Majesty so happy. ”

"It can be seen how much the eldest son of the emperor is favored by His Majesty......"

"The eldest son of the emperor is born by the queen, the eldest son of the real concubine, and the first child of His Majesty, so he is naturally favored." One person sighed with emotion, "Look at the title of the eldest son of the emperor, the prince of Jinyang County!" ”

He glared, pointed to his feet and said: "Jinyang is the land of my Great Qi Longxing, the heart of the world, Your Majesty will give him such a noble title, what does it mean?" ”

“…… In a few years, sooner or later he will be the prince! ”

"It's extreme, it's extreme! His Majesty is also the eldest son, and then he was canonized as the crown prince by the first emperor, until he ascended the throne. The prince of Jinyang County occupies the position of the chief, and in the future, it is very likely that he will ......"

“…… Your Majesty is so favored, how can there be two choices for the position of crown prince? ”

"This is my future king...... of Daqi!"

"Shhh......hh

"How about talking? His Majesty is a Ming monarch, although the emperor is strict, but there is no one in this dynasty who has been convicted for his words," a straight man said: "The eldest son of the emperor is the foundation of the country, what can not be discussed, how can the Son of Heaven have private affairs?" ”

Seeing that everyone was silent, he turned his head and asked Gao Xuan, the king of Nanyang on the side: "King, let's talk about it, is there anything wrong with what you said?" ”

The expression on Nanyang Wang's face froze, and he squeezed out a smile and said: "This matter is naturally decided by the Sacred Heart, Xiao Wang should not say much and take his leave." With that, he turned around and walked away.

The minister originally expected Gao Xuan to stand in line with him, but unexpectedly, his hot face was attached to his cold buttocks, and he was speechless for a while, "This ...... This, what does Nanyang King mean? ”

Everyone was silent for a moment, and one of them looked at Gao Xuan's back and laughed contemptuously, it was Pei Shiju, who was also a two-part servant, and he said in a low voice: "You still don't know? A few days ago, there was a royal history play, impeaching the king of Nanyang and raising a guest, and his heart was not right. ”

"It seems that there is such a thing, but it is nothing for the kings to raise some doormen." Some people think it's a bit of a fuss.

"Nothing?" Pei Shiju sneered, "In the past, it was nothing, but now that the vassal king has given up the right to send troops and govern power, it will be very different." In exchange, the treatment of the vassal king is much better than before, and there are more restrictions on it. ”

“…… What does Pei Shilang mean? ”

Pei Shiju stood proudly, and said with an unfathomable expression: "I heard that the king of Nanyang is cruel in his heart, and the crimes committed in the fiefdom are too numerous to mention.

But the reputation of the king of Nanyang among the scholars is very good, and everyone says that he is generous......

"Isn't it a contradiction for you to count these two very different manifestations of him?"

“…… What does this mean? "Most people haven't gotten it yet. The most important thing for the old Gao family is to be crazy, the little things are ridiculous, but the big things are understandable, starting from Gao Huan and counting down, there are still fewer descendants of the Gao family?

Someone understood, and said thoughtfully: "In the past, the king of Nanyang chased dogs and cannibals, and once said that this is the ...... of Emperor Wenxuan."

"How old was he then? Childlike words. "That being said, everyone present muttered in their hearts, could it be that Your Majesty really had something to think about King Nanyang?

Of course, it is not for nothing that he defends him, "King Nanyang was young and ridiculous at that time, and now he is very good, not like the princes said?" Moreover, the first emperor never liked the king of Nanyang, and he had no hope of ascending the throne. ”

"Hey, as long as it's the prince, whoever says he doesn't want to sit in that position is fake." Pei Shiju narrowed his eyes and said: "Don't forget, if it's true, this King of Nanyang is the eldest son of the first emperor, and he and the saint were born on the same day, but because the first emperor didn't like Concubine Li, he was demoted to the second son......"

"Today in the palace, if Your Majesty reprimands him harshly, he will be safe, but what will Your Majesty do? His Majesty didn't even mention it, but ordered someone to send it out politely......" Pei Shiju changed his words, and said: "The princess Li of King Sihao of Gao'an is the aunt of King Nanyang, and there were rumors last year that the person who assassinated the driver was Gao Sihao, if it is true, then can King Nanyang get rid of it?" ”

"Hiss......" The others took a breath of cool air, and the more they thought about it, the more frightened they became, and they said, "This is really unpredictable." "With today's ruthlessness, I can't really make this Pei Hongda guess!

When the spy reported their conversation to the emperor, Cushman was teasing his son in the dormitory.

Gao Heng had just eaten enough, and couldn't help but sway, wow, he opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of milk on his father's clothes, Gao Wei originally planned to come over and take a look and go back to criticize the folds, but he made this stinky boy make trouble, and his brows frowned slightly, as if he was a little unhappy.

The nurse and the attendants were all frightened and overwhelmed, but the boy who had not been born long ago did not know it, and tilted his head innocently with a pair of big round eyes. Gao Wei scolded "stinky boy" with a smile, and kissed him on the little face.

Coaxed for a while, after listening to the secret spy say that the ministers were discussing the future prince candidate, Gao Wei was only slightly unhappy, and when he heard Pei Shiju guess his thoughts, Gao Wei's eyes flashed a cold gleam, and then chuckled: "Pei Hongda really said that?" ”

The spy knelt far away, buried his head on the ground, and said respectfully: "A word is good, Pei Shilang really said so." ”

Gao Wei snorted coldly: "He thinks that if he has those three or two talents, I won't kill him?" Don't you hear about Yang Xiu's death? ”

No one dared to answer, Gao Wei brushed his sleeves and said, "Okay, you go down." Gao Wei sat back in his place, picked up his son, and thought secretly in his heart: "Although Pei Shiju is talented, he is young and vigorous, and he has a smooth journey, which has already bred arrogance.

"Last time, he was with people, and I didn't deal with him, but today, he still dares to make a big statement, if he continues like this, this person must be killed!"

Gao Wei's face was expressionless, thinking about how to deal with Pei Shiju. At this moment, another person quietly appeared under the imperial steps:

"Your Majesty, Liu Taozhi just got the news, go to find the rebel Gao Si......"

Gao Wei snorted: "I just knew, he went to ventilate on the back foot, and he moved fast enough." ”

Gao Heng couldn't understand what he was saying, and kicked hard in his father's arms, babbling things that only he could understand.

Gao Shun is now the most powerful eunuch besides Lu Ran, and at this time he knelt on the ground, showing a bitter expression of gritted teeth:

"Liu Taozhi betrayed His Majesty's trust, it is really a crime that deserves death! The slave is not talented, and I am willing to get rid of this traitor for Your Majesty! ”

Gao Wei looked at him, a smile appeared on his face, and said, "In the end, I realized that you people can still be trusted. ”

Gao Shun's face was full of emotion, and he wiped his tears and said, "...... These people are all foreign ministers, slaves and maids are different, slaves and maids are Your Majesty's domestic slaves, life and death, honor and disgrace are all in Your Majesty, how dare slaves and maids deceive Your Majesty! ”

"You are very effective, very good, I have a heavy reward," Gao Wei admonished, but there was a deep scrutiny hidden in his eyes, "Liu Taozhi, don't touch him for the time being, just look at it first, as for the king of Nan'an...... Don't move yet. ”

Gao Shun was shocked and said, "If the king of Nan'an colludes with the king of Nanyang? ”

Gao Wei glanced at him lightly and sneered, "Wouldn't that be better?" I also want to know if it is he who wants to be the yellow finch. ”

Gao Shun shuddered and retreated.

The kid in his arms was not very peaceful, moving back and forth, Gao Wei continued to tease him, and pointed out: "You don't like that person just now, don't you?" Hahahaha...... The dog bites the dog with a mouthful of hair, and let them continue to bite. ”

The stinky boy moved for a while, and suddenly cried with a pout, and he couldn't coax it. Gao Wei was very helpless and ordered Lu Ran to find the queen.

The head of the road walked out of the palace gate, and exhaled as if relieved, "Let's go, Your Royal Highness is in a hurry, go and find Niangniang." ”

Unlike the heat outside the hall, the hall was very cool, but the little chamberlain who came out found that the clothes on the back of the steward were all soaked with sweat.
