Poor family mother and son

The emperor stared deeply at King Qin.

Although King Qin talked a lot and went round and round, the emperor seemed to have guessed King Qin's thoughts, but what the emperor noticed now was that there was a vaguely familiar feeling that kept emerging. What exactly was familiar?

King Qin was immersed in the soreness of his knees and did not raise his head to look at the emperor's expression. In order to relieve his knees as soon as possible, he speeded up his speech and went straight to the topic:

"Your Majesty, if I could have warned you earlier, I would not have put you in a difficult position on how to reward Duke Yong'an, which would lead to the foolish decision of rewarding Duke Yong'an's son!"

It was definitely a dangerous move to scold the emperor for "making a stupid move," but for the sake of his knees, King Qin had to do the same.

Even though he is only ten years older than the emperor, King Qin is almost 50 years old now and really cannot afford to kneel down.

Before the emperor could think about it, King Qin quickly said without leaving any space for the emperor to think:
“The fiefdom of Duke Yong’an has been set up in the remote and barbaric land of Daxuan, because he was concerned about the strength of Duke Yong’an and was afraid that he would not be able to lose his big tail;
If you want Duke Yong'an to donate her formula or drawings at this time, especially the drawings of mortars, you will definitely be given a heavy reward;
As a woman, she obtained the title of Duke. At this time, she seemed to be worthy of the throne, so she could only be rewarded with an official position;
The most likely position is the actual position in the Ministry of Industry, but as a princess, naturally she cannot be given a low-level position. She must be in charge of the Ministry of Industry, and you naturally refuse;
If based on the theory of mortars that you attach most importance to, she should be rewarded with a real job in the Ministry of War, which involves military secrets;

Or ask him to lead troops and give him military power, in which case you will not agree;
It is with this in mind that you thought of giving her son an official title to show the emperor's favor;
But have you ever thought about why she resigned from all official positions when she was awarded the title of Marquis?
It's because she doesn't want to be involved with the court anymore and doesn't want to get into trouble;
It was too late for her to hide, and now you are not only plotting against her, you are even plotting against her son..."

King Qin's words became more and more straightforward, firstly because his knees really couldn't bear it, and secondly because he didn't want the emperor to pretend to be confused anymore.

Who are you kidding by pretending to be confused?Aren’t you lying to yourself?Do you think someone can find a way to offend Mr. Yongan on your behalf?
If you didn't want to take the family route at the beginning, you might as well bring her into the harem; or you might as well follow the example of the late emperor and send her under the name of the Queen Mother, or you might as well recognize her as a sworn sister and make her a righteous princess in your own name.

Even if it doesn't work, you can put her in the name of the king and make her a princess of the opposite sex. In short, you can bring her into the royal family. Since she is a member of the royal family, isn't everything about her now under the control of the royal family?
When I say I judge people by their appearance, am I really talking about myself?I'm talking about you, nephew!
That is to say, if she is not beautiful, but if she has some good looks, if she has no children, even if she is of low birth, or even if she is a widow, you will still appoint her to the harem!

People could have joined the royal family and become "kings", but you pushed others to the side of "ministers" and rewarded yourself, boasting that you "know people and make good use of them, select talents, regardless of gender, and do not worry about the common people."

It's better now. Now she is forced to follow the route of a minister. When she reaches the position of Duke, she will no longer be able to have a title.

How else can I seal it?Granting a different surname to Wang?you dare?Are you happy?
King Qin's words were straightforward, which made the emperor a little angry. But when he heard the word "calculation", he suddenly lost half of his anger.

Oh...I remembered it!I know where that familiar feeling came from!
"Huh! Uncle Emperor, you have still been able to do this for so many years, but you really haven't made any progress!" The emperor sneered: "You took me to play three times when I was a child, and I got into trouble every three times.

Father called us over, and you were just like you are now, kneeling down and admitting your mistake before Father asked you questions!
It seems that you put all the mistakes on yourself, and keep saying that you failed to fulfill your duties as an elder and failed to take good care of me;
In fact, you turned a corner and made Father think that everything was my idea!
The first time, you made my father think that I had to go up the tree to dig out the bird's nest. You couldn't bear to see me crying, so you had to go up the tree. As a result, you fell from the tree and broke the palace man's arm;
The second time, you made your father think that it was me who insisted on catching fish, so you had to go into the water yourself. As a result, your jade pendant fell into the river and could not be found;
The third time, you lied to me about hide-and-seek and threw me in a fake cave. Then you ran back to eat snacks and forgot about me until dark. I was so scared that I cried;

But you are criticizing your father, saying that you should not have allowed me to play hide-and-seek. You searched the imperial garden three times and still couldn't find me!

You were the one causing trouble every time, but in the end, my father grounded me!Later, I asked you why you lied, but you said, "Put it on me. My father thought that I lost my mother when I was young, and the most I could do was to be grounded."
But if you admit that the fault is yours, you will be punished and you will not be able to enter the palace and play with me;
You also said that if you don’t calculate the consequences in advance, you will suffer big losses!You are quite calculating! "

Maybe it brought back his childhood memories, and the emperor was no longer so angry at King Qin's heart-piercing words before. He no longer called himself "I", but changed his name to "you and me".

King Qin was separated from the palace by the late emperor early on and lived alone. He rarely entered the palace, so in the memory of Emperor Qingde, he only took him to play three times.

Although he had to be punished in the end every time, it was the best time in the emperor's repressed childhood - the emperor's brothers bullied him, and only this little uncle could play with him.

And King Qin's words back then, "If you don't plan the consequences in advance, you will suffer big losses", the emperor will remember it for a lifetime.

King Qin just said that after the emperor plotted against Chu Qing, he plotted against Chu Qing's son. He was right.

But it was precisely because he was right that the emperor became angry.

And because the word "calculation" came out of King Qin's mouth, it brought back childhood memories and made the emperor feel relieved.

Looking at King Qin's half-white hair, the emperor pointed to the seat and freed King Qin's knees.

But I’m still quite angry!
"Uncle Emperor, how dare you say that I am scheming!" the emperor said.

King Qin saw that since he could be given the seat, it meant that the emperor listened to what he said and recognized it to some extent, so he dared to say more——

"Your Majesty, if her son is determined, can he not participate in the Spring Festival? He must not want to be an official;
If you give her an official position for those things, you will force her to... the opposite. You know, King Vos is still waiting. "

Even if he is bold, he does not dare to go too far. What King Qin really wants to say is - aren't you afraid of forcing her to rebel?
If she had really rebelled, it might not have happened; but now, she wants people and cannons, and her reputation among the people is pretty good. If she was really forced to rebel, it would be hard to tell who Daxuan's surname would be.

Even though King Qin’s words were reserved, the emperor understood what he said and couldn’t help but get angry: “I worked so hard to promote and train him just to make him my confidant, but how could he actually become a serious trouble?!”

King Qin secretly rolled his eyes - Your Majesty, do you feel guilty for saying this?Are you kidding yourself? (End of chapter)
