67 Chapter 67
Ying Zheng's eyes moved slightly, and a shallow smile appeared in his sharp phoenix eyes. - ambitious, alert and composed, it is indeed what the daughter he brought with him should look like.
The emperor's smiling reaction fell on the eyes of the temple people dressed as attendants, and the heart that the temple people had been carrying finally fell slightly, and it was really a little princess, even if she said something rebellious, she could make His Majesty's heart bloom.
The emperor was in a good mood, and the temple people were no longer as nervous as they were just now, and they diligently added wine to the emperor's wine cup.
Ying Zheng picked up the wine cup and took a sip into his mouth.
"Good wine."
Ying Zheng let go of the wine cup, looked at the swaying wine in the wine cup, and asked the attendant who was standing on the side, "What is served in the southwest?"
The attendant replied respectfully, "Your noble man is so sensitive, this wine was sent from the southwest, and its name is Drunken Mingyue."
"This wine is soft in the mouth, the taste is excellent, and drinking more does not hurt the body, hangover does not hurt the head, only in the half-drunk and half-awake vision will change, no matter what you look at, as if there is a bright moon shining brightly, so the name is called the drunken bright moon."
"Drunk Mingyue?"
Ying Zheng snorted, "Good name."
The attendant accompanied him and said carefully, "Being praised by a noble person for a good name is a blessing that this wine has cultivated for several lifetimes." "
Ying Zheng was noncommittal, looked at the drunken Mingyue in the wine cup, and instructed the attendant, "Send it to the princess." The attendant was slightly stunned.
- The princess is twelve years old, but she has not yet passed her twelfth birthday, is it not good to drink alcohol at this age?
But this kind of words the attendant only dared to think in his heart, he didn't dare to say it in front of Ying Zheng when he killed him, Ying Zheng spoke, he was stunned for a moment and then hurriedly responded, holding the rest of the drunk Mingyue and quickly giving it to Hehua.
At this time, Hehua had just finished speaking, and the deafening words made the ministers and doctors at the banquet all wonder and ponder, and the huge flower hall was so quiet that the sound of needles falling on the ground could almost be heard, and in the deathly silence, the sound of the attendants stepping on small broken steps was particularly clear.
"Princess, the nobleman gives wine."
The attendant held the wine, walked quickly to Hehua, and lowered his voice to Hehua.
Hehua's eyebrows raised slightly, and his gaze swept over his surroundings.
/>
Soon, her gaze lingered on several golden silk nanmu glass-inlaid screens.
Those screens are placed in an excellent position, under normal circumstances, when they are some decorative screens, in order to show the identity and status of the owner, there will be no one behind the screen, but she feels that her father is definitely there, and has been looking at her for a long time, and her rebellious words have not fallen into his ears word for word.
Father is in the prime of life, but he covets the throne, in this case, she should be afraid, after all, those words are really unpleasant, almost I want to be the emperor written on my face, but for some reason, she is not afraid in her heart, and even when she finds that her father is behind the screen at this time, she still has some expectations in her heart.
She felt that her father should be satisfied with her, her ambition, her calmness and rationality in handling things, all the same as her father
Father's gaze at this time should be approving of it, the kind of approval and pride that the birth of a daughter should be.
Hehua bent his eyes and laughed. - She is the pride of her father!
"Drunk Mingyue?"
Hehua glanced deeply at the screen, and his eyebrows were smiling. The attendant replied gently, "If you return to the princess, it is the drunken moon."
"Thank you for me." Hehua smiled, "This wine is very good, it's a pity that I drink it alone, and when I return to the palace, I will drink it with my father."
Han Shu smiled softly, and lightly put away the wine jar sent by the attendant.
Meng Yi raised his eyebrows.
Zhisu Neishi's eyes flashed.
Wang Xuan's face was slightly cold, and Li Si didn't say a word.
Feng Quji and Feng Zheng exchanged a look with each other, and they saw shock from each other's eyes - His Majesty actually went to the mansion in person to see how the princess dealt with the princess.
It's not favoritism, it's naked/naked.
It shows that he doesn't care about the order of the young and the old, let alone the inferiority of men and women, in his heart, his future heir is never limited to identity and gender, and ability and decisiveness are his first criteria for choosing an heir.
The unbearable silence was punctured. Some people began to talk about what Fang Cai Hehua had said, and also about the wine given by the "nobles".
Wang Xuan's eyes changed.
Hehua laughed, "If you just said it, you can think about it carefully." "I may not be able to guarantee the other things, but no one is more determined than me in the matter of inheriting my father's decree."
"Father swept Liuhe and controlled the sea, and I will help him prosper and peace, and the world will return to his heart." "Father's journey is a sea of stars
, I will help him expand the territory and make everything prosperous. ”
Meng Yi smiled lightly. ——The glutinous rice dumplings of that year have really grown up.
Win Zhengfeng's eyes are slightly hooked.
"What's the name of this soup?" Ying Zheng put down the ivory basket and said in a relaxed tone.
The emperor's face softened, and the attendants were no longer as nervous as they were just now, "This soup is a colorful mushroom soup, which is made from the slow boiling of mushrooms in the southwest, which is delicious and nourishing, and it is the most nourishing."
"Rest assured, this mushroom soup is not only here for nobles, but also for princesses."
The attendant raised his finger and pointed to the delicate crockpot on the Hehua dining table, and added in a soft voice, "The princess likes it very much, and she has already drunk one."
The small food bowl has bottomed out, and the attendant standing beside Hehua has served another one, bent over and held it in Hehua's hand.
Hehua was talking at this time, and he didn't notice that the attendant added soup to himself, "Father treats me with the pearl in his palm, and I naturally treat Father with sincerity."
"Father often said, I am his pride, and I am the pride of Daqin." Hehua's gaze fell on Wang Xuan's face.
Wang Xuan's eyes were slightly dark, Hehua smiled, and he didn't hide or avoid his deep eyes, "But I hope that I am not only the pride of my father and Daqin, but also the pride of my lords."
"After all, the king and the minister complement each other, both are indispensable, if there is no assistance from you, I am a cripple without hands and feet, even if I have all kinds of ambitions in my heart, I am just trapped in a bed to spend my life."
These words were even bolder than just now, almost bluntly saying that she not only had ambition and ability, but also had obtained His Majesty's approval, so she said these words unscrupulously, and invited the princess doctor to assist her as a quasi-heir of the dynasty, instead of being explained by His Majesty to welcome Gongzi Fusu back to the court, and the courtiers who were waiting for Gongzi Fusu could not get together.
Offensive and defensive trends, one step to the sky. She is not a little princess who was denied face by the ministers and doctors, but the heir of the dynasty who was pinned on by His Majesty.
The minister's face changed slightly. - So the purpose of His Majesty's coming here today could not be more obvious, is it to support the little princess?
Meng Yi shook his head and chuckled. - In the end, it is still too small to understand the truth of rigidity and easy breakage.
Wang Xuan sneered and hit the nail on the head, "Princess, your words are too full."
"Don't say it's you, even if it was Fusu, the son who assisted His Majesty in handling government affairs back then, he didn't dare to say such big things in front of all the ministers and doctors."
Hehua's eyelids raised slightly, and he reacted.
Her words were not only too full, but also too picky, so she wrote her ambition on her face, but now, it is written on her face that I am the heir appointed by my father, but the problem is that my father appreciates her ambition, but he has not personally allowed her anything about the heir.
- She is pulling the skin of the tiger under the threat of a fox and a fake tiger.
If it weren't for the important ministers and ministers who have been up and down in the officialdom for decades, they might have been fooled by her, but they are, their keen political sense can easily bluff her, and once discovered, the effect of her impassioned words will be greatly reduced, and what they want is an ambitious heir, not a bombastic new Zhao Kuo.
Zhisu Neishi's heart that had just fallen was raised to his throat again. The more critical it is, the more the princess can't afford to make any mistakes, otherwise all her previous efforts will be in vain.
"What the old prime minister said is very true."
Almost without any hesitation, Hehua simply admitted his mistake neatly, "It's true that I'm too proud and talk too much."
"Although I don't have the habit of being arrogant, I occasionally feel complacent because of my father's favor." "Because I know that I am the most special in my father's heart, and this little bit of special can allow me to give birth to all kinds of possibilities."
Hehua Jiaojiao laughed, her voice was a little less unmistakable just now, and more arrogant of her daughter's family at this age, "Old Prime Minister, this matter is indeed mine, don't be nitpicky and chase me."
"The day after tomorrow, my brothers and sisters will arrive in Xianyang, and your granddaughter and sister-in-law will also come back."
Hehua's eyes fell on Wang Xuan, "My brother and sister-in-law have been in the land of Nanyue for seven years, making the land of Nanyue, where Ru Mao drank blood, a big taxpayer in the treasury, which made my father full of praise and amazed the world."
Wang Xuan's eyes trembled slightly, and the cold aura on his face melted for a moment.
That is his most proud granddaughter, better than his sons and grandchildren, and the former son Fusu worshiped under him, was raised by him, and had a very good relationship with his granddaughter.
The relationship is here, and he and even the people of the world once thought that Gongzi Fusu was the future prince, and his granddaughter was the future princess, and the glory of the family was by future generations.
It's a pity that his idea of governing the country is no longer applicable to today's Great Qin, he is too conservative and too cautious, and he has been completely defeated in the matter of the feudal system or the county system, and he has completely lost the qualification to control the political situation in the world.
After this incident, Gongzi Fusu married Li Si's daughter, and his granddaughter also married Gongzi Jianglu, one
The position is far less stable than Gongzi Fusu, and it is far less stable than Gongzi Fusu, who is valued by the emperor.
After that, the land of Nanyue was included in the territory of Daqin by the national lieutenant Tu Sui, and the sons went to the land of Nanyue to train, and his granddaughter also went to assist the prince to govern the land of Nanyue.
Thousands of miles away, seven years later, his granddaughter only came back once, and the pampered delicate girl disappeared no more, replaced by a vigilant and keen Daqin official, and his face was no longer delicate.
But his gaze became more and more resolute.
Distressed?
It must be distressing, the delicate granddaughter he raised in the palm of his hand has suffered so much, how can he not be distressed?
But in the distress, there was a subtle sense of relief, his mind was no longer applicable to the decree of his enterprising majesty, his sons and grandsons were mediocre, he could almost foresee, after a hundred years his family would change from a mighty man to a common man, and the only person who could change this outcome was his granddaughter, his granddaughter, who was far more talented than his sons and grandsons but was a woman.
His granddaughter has risen to prominence in the land of South Vietnam and has accumulated enough political capital, and this time she returned to the court with everyone, which is to transform the political capital of the land of South Vietnam into a green ladder for future officials, and the grandeur of the welcoming ceremony is the material that creates the green cloud ladder.
Fewer people means she is not taken seriously.
The large number of people means that she has made outstanding achievements, whether it is His Majesty or the minister's doctor, they all recognize her dedication and merit. And now, her political capital is put in front of him by the princess, who wants him to make a choice. Will he continue to uphold his idea of governing the country, or will he stand with the princess for the future prosperity of the family?
His granddaughter is already the wife of Gongzi Jianglu, even if Fusu Gongzi ascends the throne as the emperor, she is just an ordinary noble lady, but if the princess is the ninth five, she will become the princess's right-hand man, replacing him to continue the prosperity and glory of the Wang family.
- The princess ascended the throne as a woman, and in order to maintain her rule, she would also attach importance to the status of women over ordinary male rulers, and elevate women to a position where they could assist her in handling court affairs, instead of being a staff member in the family as before.
Wang Xuan slowly closed his eyes.
In a trance, he remembered that His Majesty had given the marriage of the prince Jianglu, at that time he thought that it was the impact of the feudal system and the county system, but now, he had a different idea, maybe on this day, His Majesty was already paving the way for the little princess.
His Majesty wants the princess to return to her destiny, to make the princess stable, and to make the princess and the minister harmonious, and never to be a loner.
Wang Xuan pulled the corners of his mouth.
Such a credit to the history books, can you bear that their return ceremony to the city is miserable and cold? Hehua said with a smile,
34; Even if you are patient, I can't bear it, they are the heroes of Great Qin, how can they be treated so coldly?
Zhisu Neishi closed his eyes and poured a mouthful of water into his mouth.
This little princess is really not worrying.
Three or two sentences will hang people's hearts, and three or two sentences will seamlessly circle the topic back, so that he will be worried about his age, this kind of heart-wrenching words come out, Wang Xuan can no longer insist on his own ideas, people live not only for themselves, but also for their own children and grandchildren, otherwise Ze will not be as tempted by future generations as it is now.
Zhisu Neishi breathed a sigh of relief.
Very well, today's banquet was a great success.
If Wang Xuan bows her head, the other ministers and doctors will no longer fight against the little princess, so that the little princess will be able to get the position she wants smoothly.
Zhisu Neishi is in a good mood, What the princess said is very true, the old prime minister is clear, and he will definitely not-
The old man is not only discerning, but also brave and loyal, not afraid of power.
Wang Xuan slowly opened his eyes, and his gaze fell on Hehua on the main throne, "Back then, His Majesty implemented the county system with an iron fist, and the old man never gave in, but now the princess wants the old man to dispel her claim in a few words, is it too naïve?
Hehua was slightly startled.
——Wang Xuan's self-profess is not the self-title of a high-ranking prime minister, but the self-title that only the old man of Xianyun Yehe can have. Doctor Yushi's face changed slightly, "Prime Minister Wang, you, think twice!"
Although the old man is old, he is still a child of Guanzhong, and there is still a lot of blood in his chest.
Wang Xuan stood up with his sleeves and raised his hand to point to his chest, This blood flows for His Majesty, and even more for Great Qin, how can it be extinguished by the rise and fall of the personal honor and disgrace family?
Hehua's eyelids jumped fiercely. - She still underestimated the old prime minister's bloodiness and fierceness.
Behind the screen, Ying Zheng's eyelids were slightly raised, and there was not much expression on his face.
He knows this old prime minister who has gone through four dynasties too well, this old prime minister is indeed a sleek old fox, it is not his business, and no one can control this kind of thing in self-preservation.
But this old prime minister is a strong Guanzhong disciple, for his beliefs and goals, he will not hesitate to sacrifice everything he has, and he will not hesitate to give everything he has.
Ying Zheng picked up the wine cup and took a sip of the drunken moon.
I'm sorry, Prime Minister, but I lost my words. Hehua got up in an instant and greeted Wang Xuan with him, "I shouldn't-"
The princess doesn't have to say much.
Wang Xuan interrupted Hehua's words, The old man knows what the princess means, you have ambitions in your heart, and the old man also has them, since we can't convince each other, then leave the result to time.
Time is the best teacher, and it will give the answer, whether you have achieved great things, or whether the old man is more secure.
Wang Xuan turned to leave.
"Prime Minister!"
"Prime Minister—"
Everyone stood up and went to stop the prime minister who had served the four monarchs of Great Qin, but the prime minister's footsteps did not stop for anyone, and the princes did not have to send each other.
Wang Xuan walked away with the crutches given by Yingzheng himself.
Hehua stood quietly beside the dining table, watching the old figure leave.
The prime minister is gone, is there any point in us staying?" Yes, the prime minister has to insist on his own opinions even if he resigns and returns to his hometown, how can we hold him back?"
Everyone talked about it, and after a while, a person made this trip to Hehua, the princess, the minister still has something to do, and he retired first. "So it is with the minister." "The same is true of ministers."
Zhisu Neishi was completely panicked. - He brought the group over to help the princess, not to push them all against the princess.
Meng Yi raised his eyes and looked at Hehua.
The once soft and glutinous little group has grown up, dressed in gorgeous clothes, holding high hair, although the little face is immature, but the phoenix eyes have the demeanor of His Majesty, she raised her eyebrows and looked at the retreating people, her voice was not in a hurry, The prime minister is a real old Qin person, with the style and blood of the old Qin people, and unswervingly adhere to his beliefs and ambitions until death.
But what about the princes? Why did you leave?
"Is it to unite with the prime minister? Or do you want to go with the flow and live up to the cultivation and promotion of the prime minister?"
If this is the case, the princes despise the prime minister, and the prime minister sacrifices the honor and disgrace of the family for the sake of his beliefs, not to let the princes follow his example and betray his beliefs, but to set an example and let the princes adhere to their beliefs and ambitions.
Hehua's gaze slowly swept over everyone, "All the princes ask themselves, do you really not approve of the future of Great Qin that I described?" Everyone was slightly stunned. - They approve of it.
If they don't approve of it, they won't be so touched when the princess reveals her ambitions, and they, like the princess, clearly know that only the princess will be in power after a hundred years, and only the princess will be able to inherit His Majesty's will and push Daqin to a new tripod
Flourishing.
If you want to leave, I won't stop you.
Hehua said, If you don't go to the ceremony to welcome the heroes back to the court, I won't come to the door again and again.
"Because I am the same as the prime minister, I am both Qin people, I have the same character and blood of Qin people, and I will unswervingly adhere to my beliefs and ambitions until death.
The noisy feast slowly returned to quiet. Everyone's eyes fell on Hehua, and everyone was silent.
Princess, are you really not going to ask the minister?
On the day of welcoming Gongzi Fusu's return to the court, Han Su looked at Hehua who was lying on the pillow with his eyes closed, and said worriedly, Although Lu Changcheng organized workers to go together, the status of the workers was too low, and a hundred workers were not as important as a minister.
- It's not a good thing to be angry before you even take power.
The sedan car drove on the wide galloping road, and Hehua was holding a pillow in his hand, without much expression on his face. "Is reputation important?"
The king of Chu laughed at himself and was barbarian, and the kings of Qin were scolded as the kings of tigers and wolves, but did it affect their power?" No. "Why can't I do what they can do?"
This is an unprecedentedly difficult road, and she has long been prepared to go alone.
As Father said, she has to rely on her own ability to get to that position, not because of the support of others.
The courtiers elected puppets, and the one who crowned himself king was the emperor who ruled the world from all over the world.
Han Su sighed softly. -The princess is so stubborn, I am afraid that the road ahead will not be easy.
"Princess, it's here."
A gentle reminder from the maid sounded outside the sedan curtain.
Hehua slowly opened his eyes.
Han Shu leaned forward and arranged Hehua's sideburns and clothes.
This is a major day for the return of the prince and the heroes, they have lost the heart of the courtiers, and they can't have any problems in etiquette.
After a while, the cold crisp was tidied up, and the maid understood, raised her hand to open the sedan curtain.
The grand costumes of the ceremonial officials appeared in front of Hehua's eyes.
- Fortunately in misfortune, the ministers and doctors next to them can pretend to be sick at home, but the officials and ceremonial officials cannot be absent from this ceremony.
Who says there won't be a minister's doctor?
/>Isn't Fengchang, who is the head of the Nine Qings, the ceremonial of the Zhangzong Temple, here?
Hehua laughed at himself and walked out of the sedan chair with his hand.
When she completely got out of the sedan chair and saw the scene outside the sedan chair, the calm character who had been raised by the emperor for twelve years stiffened slightly at this moment, and her pupils shook-
The ministers and doctors she could name were all dressed in court clothes, standing neatly in front of her sedan chair, and the stars surrounded her like the moon, as if waiting for her to give orders.
- They did not strike the dynasty en masse, but chose to believe in the prosperous Daqin she depicted.
