Chapter 558: The Stubborn Emperor
It's not that she doesn't believe in the abilities of her ministers, but she doesn't believe in the capriciousness of the emperor.
What he promised with the front foot, it is easy to regret it with the back foot, so she will not be at ease if she does not wait for the holy decree of the people of Chu to be pardoned.
Sure enough, when all the civil and military officials in the court came to the Heart Cultivation Palace, the emperor was a little stunned.
When they explained their intentions, the emperor not only did not accommodate, but even became even more annoyed.
He raised his hand and pointed at Leng Yu and Liu Dechang, and shouted angrily:
"Are you telling everyone to force me? Do you think I'm going to compromise just because there are so many of you? It's so whimsical, hurry up, or I'll order someone to be taken now. ”
Seeing that the emperor's words were decisive, Liu Dechang immediately asked in a disheartened voice:
"Your Majesty, can't you be more tolerant of the minister's family for the sake of the minister's loyalty to you for many years?"
The emperor waved his hand without hesitation,
"Tolerance? When did he, the people of Chu State, ever tolerate the people of my Daning Kingdom? I suspect that those two women are the fine works that the people of Chu have planted in Daning Kingdom. ”
Leng Yu saw that the emperor did not give these people face at all, so he simply clenched his fists and said:
"Father, the Daning State has already ceased war with the Chu State, and there will be no more wars in the future, how can they be the meticulous work of the Chu State? They have been in Yuwang's Mansion for so long, and their sons understand them, they are only the wives and daughters of General Liu, and they have no other identities. ”
"Say no more."
The emperor seemed to have run out of patience, he stared and waved his hand again,
"Go down, whoever dares to mention this matter again will be punished with the same crime as the people of Chu."
Seeing this, everyone shut up one after another, not daring to say more, Leng Yu looked at Liu Dechang, who was panting with anger, and after giving him a look, he left the Heart Cultivation Palace.
Until he came to the gate of the Heart Cultivation Palace, Liu Dechang still looked angry.
He flicked his sleeves and scolded loudly:
"No wonder the people say that the royal family is ruthless, I can see it now, the emperor is simply ruthless to the extreme."
"General Liu, don't say any more, let's go back first, and then slowly figure out a way."
"What else can be done? The people we should be looking for have been found, what else can we do? ”
"And Lan'er, maybe she can talk to her father. ”
Leng Yu's words made Liu Dechang pause, and then nodded helplessly,
"Let's go back, if Lan'er doesn't make sense, then I can only resign and take my wife and children to find another way out."
Liu Dechang's words are both angry and truthful.
He has lived alone for so many years, and now his wife and children have finally been found, but the emperor insists on separating them, which is something he absolutely cannot accept, and he has already thought before he comes, even if he does not become an official, he will be with his wife and children.
……
Luo Lan entered the palace after noon, she held Lele's hand, with Ah Cai and Ah Hong behind her, and her steps were hurried.
The reason why she took Lele with her was that she wanted Lele to accompany the emperor to play a few games of chess, so that he could be happy, and maybe she would be able to ask for his holy decree.
"Lele, remember for a while, don't make your imperial grandfather angry, it's up to you whether your aunt and grandmother can stay."
Lele patted his little chest and replied with an oath:
"Mother, don't worry, Lele has a way to tell Grandpa Huang."
"Really?"
"Of course, if you don't believe it, you will wait for me outside for a while, and with a game of chess, I can talk about Grandpa Tonghuang."
Although Luo Lan felt that Lele's words were a bit exaggerated, she still smiled and nodded,
"Okay, then the mother will go to see your grandfather first, and if the mother can't make sense, you will go again."
Lego raised his head, looking confident,
"Okay, then it's okay, if I talk to the emperor's grandfather, my mother will give us a day off and let the uncle take us to play."
"If you can really understand your imperial grandfather, don't say one day off, even if it's ten days."
Hearing her mother say this, Lele's eyes narrowed directly into a slit, and her heart blossomed even more.
After the two of them came to the Heart Cultivation Palace, Luo Lan bowed and saluted, and Lele knelt directly on his knees.
"Grandpa Huang, I heard that your body has recovered, and Lele has come to play chess with you."
The emperor glanced at Luo Lan and waved his hand directly,
"You go down first, just let Lele accompany me."
"Father, my son has something to say to you."
"Say no more. ”
The emperor seemed to know what she was going to say, and before she could speak, he waved his hand directly and refused.
"Needless to say, I have made up my mind, it's useless to talk more, you can go down."
The emperor's decision made Luo Lan a little disappointed, but she still bowed and bowed, snorted at Le Lenu, turned around and walked outside.
Seeing that his mother left, Lele got up and came to the emperor's side, and Liu Xi hurriedly put the chessboard on the table.
"Grandpa Huang, Lele is a child, you should let Lele and let Lele go first."
"Okay, Grandpa Huang hasn't played chess for a long time, and Grandpa Huang is a little dizzy, you can't lie to Grandpa Huang."
Lele grinned and smiled happily,
"Grandpa Huang is very shrewd, how dare Lele lie to you."
As he spoke, he put a black chess piece in the middle of the chessboard, and the emperor also picked up the chess piece in front of him, thought about it for a while, and then fell......
In this game of chess, they played for a long time, and Luo Lan, who was waiting outside, was a little anxious.
She knew that Lele was a smart child, but the emperor was a stubborn person, and he didn't even listen to the words of the ministers of the court and the central government about this matter, how could he listen to Lele, a child?
But what can be done now? She lay alone on the railing not far from the Heart Cultivation Palace, thinking quietly.
After a game of chess, Lele actually lost to the emperor, and the emperor grinned and said with a smile:
"Lele, did you humble the imperial grandfather this time?"
Lele stood up directly from the soft couch, shook the hem of his clothes, knelt on his knees, and clasped his fists with both hands:
"Grandpa Huang, Lele didn't humble you, it was Grandpa Huang's superb chess skills, and Lele was convinced."
The emperor looked at him with puzzled eyes,
"Then why are you kneeling? If you have something to say, get up and say it. ”
Lele shook his head vigorously,
"Grandpa Huang, you are the king of a country, Lele respects you, Lele has something unclear, and I hope that Grandpa Huang will make it clear."
"Oh? If there is anything unclear, you might as well say it, and the imperial grandfather will definitely tell you. ”
Lele lowered his head and thought for a while, then blinked his sly eyes and asked:
"Grandpa Huang, the people in the market have rumored that you are the emperor who speaks his word, is this true?"
"Of course, I am the king, you have no jokes, what I say, that is the royal words of Chrysostom, and it must be counted."
Hearing this, Lele nodded with a serious face, and then took out a jade pendant from his arms,
"Grandpa Huang, this jade pendant was given to Lele last time, you said that this jade pendant is equivalent to a wordless holy decree, and now Lele asks you to give Lele a holy decree, you won't lose your word to Lele, right?"
"Oh? What kind of decree do you want? ”
