After losing the vest at the beginning, the female general was forced to marry the scheming prince

Chapter 101
Qu Chu caressed like this, not noticing Ning Youbei's rolling eyeballs even though they were closed.

He had just fallen asleep and didn't sleep very soundly, but Ning Youbei woke up after being touched by Qu Chu a few times.But he didn't open his eyes, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to enjoy such treatment after waking up.

Ning Youbei felt Qu Chu's expression of "love" for him with all his heart, and the originally depressed mood disappeared, and his heart was full of warmth and warmth.

Ah Chu probably also likes himself a little bit, right?

After touching it a few times, Qu Chu felt satisfied, and lay down to sleep.

It wasn't until Qu Chu fell asleep that Ning Youbei opened his eyes, raised his body, bent his head and pressed a kiss on Qu Chu's face.

……

As soon as the city gate opened the next day, Qu Chu left Nanyue City with Ning Youbei and Yanhong.

Qu Chu was not worried at all about whether the cell boss would report them and hunt them down after they found out that they were missing.

Because she and Ning Youbei not only changed into new masks, but also changed into new identities.

This time, Ning Youbei's identity was a scholar from the Luo Mansion, and he was traveling abroad to study.Yan Hong is his maid, while Qu Chu is still his bodyguard.

A martial arts guard!

Imperial Palace Study Room

The emperor is in a very happy mood today.

He received a secret report from Ning Youbei:

Ning Youbei and Qu Chu have solved the crisis situation of the Nanyi frontier army, and Su Yingxue has also come forward to invite Dr. Bi to go to the Nanyi border to treat General Situ.

The emperor counted the days, it has been more than half a month since Youbei left Yudu, and he doesn't know when he will come back from this trip?
With Ning Youbei away, the emperor didn't even have anyone to talk to, so he felt a little bored.

Eunuch Rong is the best at observing words and expressions, he knows that the emperor is bored.So, he suggested next to him: "Your Majesty, why don't you go to Concubine Li's Palace for a cup of tea?"

The emperor was a little tempted.

He was really happy at Hai Lizhu's place, but he thought about how frequently he went to Concubine Li's Palace recently, so that the queen sent someone to remind him not to favor only one person.

The emperor was not afraid of the queen's reminder, but he was worried that after the queen reminded him that he would ignore it, the queen would instigate Wei Guogong and others to participate in the performance.

Then he will have a headache again!
"You went to summon the three princes, and I will study their homework."

After Eunuch Rong took the order to go, the emperor casually found a book and flipped through it.

……

After a while, the three princes arrived.

The emperor put down the book in his hand, and looked at the three sons standing in front of him with a calm expression.

"What homework did the young master give you recently?"

The eldest prince replied on behalf of several princes:
"The homework assigned by Master Shao today is how do we understand the phrase 'Self-cultivation through tranquility, and virtue through frugality'?"

The emperor showed some interest.

"Oh, then you three tell me how you understand it?"

The First Prince answered first.

"My son thinks: This sentence seems to be correct on the surface, but it should be treated according to the situation. For example, we are born nobler than others, so naturally we don't have to live as frugally as others."

The emperor looked at the eldest prince's luxurious attire and his arrogant expression, and asked calmly: "Then what do you mean: since you are a prince, you should naturally enjoy privileges over others."

The eldest prince replied as a matter of course.

"That's natural. Born into a heavenly family and being a prince, he should naturally have the best of everything in this world."

The emperor didn't comment, and looked at the second prince, "Tell me what you think."

The second prince lowered his head, did not meet the emperor's eyes, and his voice was dry.

"The meaning of this sentence is: be quiet to cultivate yourself, and be frugal to cultivate your character. My son thinks it is right."

The emperor frowned slightly.

How did Concubine Ru teach the second prince to be like this?I don't dare to look at people, and I don't have my own ideas!

Seeing the emperor frowning, the eldest prince felt rather complacent.

Thinking about what I said was in line with my father's wishes, although I didn't praise myself, but I didn't frown like he looked at the second brother.

The emperor still didn't say much, looked at the third prince, "Tell me what you think."

The third prince bowed to the emperor before speaking.

"My son thinks:
Since we were born princes and enjoyed more respect than others, we should set an example and practice self-cultivation.

In the future, the son-in-law must guard against arrogance and impetuosity, be modest, prudent, approachable, diligent and thrifty. "

The emperor looked at the seemingly low-key Xue Guangjin on the third emperor's body, which was actually more expensive than the first prince's clothes, as well as the huge diamond inlaid on his headband... and the fact that he couldn't hide it because he was too young. Ambition and desire to live.

It seems that Fang Haichang has been greedy for money in salt tax these years.

The emperor suddenly felt bored, and didn't even bother to comment.He waved his hand, "Go down."

……

After the three princes left, the emperor complained with Eunuch Rong.

"Look at what the three of them have been taught?
The eldest prince had an arrogant and extravagant face, and thought he was justified because he was used to by the empress; the second prince was submissive and had no ideas of his own; the third prince was extremely hypocritical, thinking that others didn't know what he was up to. "

Eunuch Rong comforted: "The three princes are still young, your Majesty, you should spend more time teaching them in the future."

The emperor picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, but the depression in his heart could not be suppressed no matter what.He put down the teacup heavily.

"What's so young? The eldest prince is 16 years old, and the third prince is also 14 years old. Youbei is much stronger than them at their age."

The emperor remembered that the Tai Tuo had given Youbei the homework of "Cultivating one's morality through tranquility and cultivating virtue through frugality", and he still remembered what Youbei told him at that time.

Youbei was only 12 years old at the time, he came back and said to the emperor:
"Brother Huang, I think the Tai Tuo is also funny, this is just what the sages taught his son, but he used it for us to talk about our feelings.

I'm an ordinary prince, and I don't want to be an emperor, so why should I cultivate my heart and mind?I just need to have a limit and a bottom line in everything. "

The emperor also reprimanded Ning Youbei at that time: "How can you think like this? No matter whether you are a prince or not, you should restrain yourself, return to courtesy, and abide by your duties."

"Brother Huang, if I do so well, won't I hinder the eyes of the next emperor? What if he thinks I want to seek power and usurp the throne?"

One sentence left the emperor speechless.

However, the emperor couldn't admit that Ning Youbei's words were justified.He was only 12 years old at the time, and he saw things clearly.

So even after he became the emperor, Youbei just silently helped him by the side, never seeking fame.

The emperor asked himself, if Youbei behaved outstandingly and admired by his side, even if he was his own younger brother, even if he knew that he had no intention of usurping the throne, he might not be as close to him.

No emperor likes to be surrounded by other royal families who are more famous and wise than himself.

It is precisely because Youbei has always helped him silently and without asking for anything in return, that he wants to treat him better.
