I didn't intend to become a fairy

Chapter 346 Advising You to Make a Decision Early
The promenade of the palace square is lit up everywhere.

Lanterns are hung on the promenade and under the eaves, and the lanterns are connected in a line, reflecting the red pillars.There are low stone lamp posts carved in the shape of pavilions on the square in front, and the lamps inside are also lit, like stars all over the ground. From time to time, maids and guards with palace lanterns walk by, their steps are very light.

This is the palace in the eyes of cats.

Standing on the threshold, she looked back——

The people behind were almost full, and they all put down their chopsticks, stopped clinking wine glasses, and sat and talked.

"I still have the same problem."

The emperor on the main seat leaned forward again, squinting his eyes and looking at the Taoist, as if asking for advice.

"What worries does Your Majesty have?" The Taoist also turned to look at him and paused, "Could it be that I can answer for Your Majesty?"

"This matter has troubled me for a long time."

"The matter of establishing a reserve."

"Exactly." The emperor was not surprised that he could guess it, and just sighed, "It's a pity that there are countless capable people around me, but in this matter, they are just a group of insiders, each with their own position, arguing non-stop, and they are full of their own petty thoughts. Only sir, is the real outsider, so I want to ask sir and see how he sees it."

"Chat at the banquet, don't talk about asking for advice."

"Okay." The emperor clapped his hands, "Even Changjing's traffickers and pawns know about the establishment of a reserve, the disputes in the court, and the master must have heard of it a long time ago, right?"

"I've heard it before."

Song You said truthfully as always.

"How do those small merchants and merchants Jia Xuli discuss it? Does it mean that it is reasonable to establish a heir and not an elder, but I prefer the noble concubine and the second child, so it has been delayed for a long time?"

"almost."

Song You didn't shy away from it at all.

"Ha ha……"

The old emperor leaned back slightly and laughed twice.

"Your Majesty has His Majesty's considerations, just like those people in the court, no matter which side they stand on, it's all their own calculations." The prime minister sitting opposite Song You said, "It's a pity, the Fuyang real person who helped Taizu start the dynasty once said that Taizu is a dragon and a phoenix among people, and there is no one better than the emperors of all ages. Dayan will also become the most powerful dynasty in history. For more than 200 years, the royal descendants have not been prosperous."

"What kind of person is the dragon and the phoenix, and suffers from the jealousy of the sky? It means that my royal blood is not clean, so I have always had few children, and it is very easy to die young."

The emperor said casually.

At his position, at his age, with such contributions, he is naturally fearless, just like the real person Fuyang and Song You, he dares to say anything, but when the prime minister heard it, he was quite frightened.

"I see."

Song You couldn't help but nodded.

It is true that the Dayan royal family has few descendants, and it is easy to die young, so inheritance is very problematic. Didn't the first emperor give birth to three sons, all of whom died, and the throne fell into the hands of the emperor in front of him?And before that, there were two or three times when the emperor had no heirs and could only be adopted, including the previous Princess Changping rebellion, and even the previous empress, it was basically caused by this reason.

The so-called impure blood vessels should be some genetic diseases.

"It's true that I love noble concubines, and I do like my second child better than the genteel third child. But I also feel that it is enough for me to have one Martial Emperor. Dayan has been fighting for decades, and it might not be a good thing to have another Martial Emperor." The emperor paused. Brave and aggressive, although the third child is not sick, he is also weak. The most important thing is that the second child has children, and the third child has been married long ago, but there has been no movement until now."

"I see."

The second child in the emperor's mouth is what the people call the first prince, but in fact it should be the second prince.

The third child is the little prince.

Because there was another one before, which died young.

Song You couldn't help feeling helpless, "Your Majesty is counting me as the patriarch that day."

"I'm also entangled. Sometimes I really want to ignore it and let them decide the outcome." The emperor said casually, scaring the prime minister and the servants, and then said, "It's the same on both sides. Why don't you just listen to Mr. Wang's opinion. I think that Mr. is an outsider, and maybe he can think of things that I can't think of."

"I'm not the patriarch of Tiansuan. I don't know which prince is more beneficial to the people, and I don't know whether the little prince will die in the future or what will happen to his heirs. I don't know medical skills. Although there are some small methods, since Patriarch Fuyang and Patriarch Tiansuan can't solve the royal family's genetic disease, I can't solve it." Song You said truthfully, "It's just that sometimes, the choice has disadvantages and advantages, but the difference between the pros and cons may not compare to the long delay."

"Oh? Sir, you want to persuade me to make a decision early?"

"In today's world, if you talk about the ability to speculate and calculate, the national teacher must be in the forefront. If you talk about strategy, your majesty is also top-notch. If the national teacher and your majesty can't make this decision, it will be really difficult. Rather than entangle and delay for a long time, your majesty should make a decision early. If you choose a better one, it is naturally good. Even if God's will tricks people and you choose the other side, you will have more time to make up for it." If you are afraid of procrastination, if you continue to procrastinate, you may change and cause chaos, so indecision is the worst way."

"..."

"Peace in the prosperous age is not easy to come by and must be cherished. Your Majesty has been vigorous and resolute all his life, so why is he so indecisive at this time?"

"..."

The emperor remained silent in thought.

It seemed that he was really having a hard time making a decision.

In other words, the two princes, just relying on other people's analysis, don't benefit from who wins, and don't suffer from who loses. They still can't see which choice is better, let alone him, the person in the middle of the chess game?
After a while, the emperor said:

"These days, I have set some problems for them to do. The third child is better at anything related to people's livelihood, but the third child is not as good as the second child in anything that requires courage."

"What kind of questions did His Majesty set?"

"Let's listen to the prime minister and sir."

The emperor waved his hand, and sat on the spot, his eyes flickering, as if lost in thought.

The prime minister took the order and said to Song You:
"For example, a few days ago, after the incident with the princess before, there was some turmoil in the court, and there were rumors outside the palace. It doesn't matter if the common people talk casually, but if it is deliberately fabricated and deliberately released some news to cause political turmoil, it will not work. Wu Desi found out that the rumor came from a ghost market outside the city, so His Majesty ordered the two princes to investigate, but also ordered Wu Desi not to listen to the orders of the two princes, and wanted to see what the two princes could do."

The prime minister paused:
"The little prince racked his brains and begged for help, but it was somewhat effective, but it was not as swift and resolute as the second prince's."

"Oh?" Song You became curious, "How did the second prince do it?"

"The second prince cut down Wu Desi's school lieutenant with a sword, and said a few words of reprimand. He mentioned His Majesty, and quickly calmed down the situation. Wu Desi did not dare to disobey, so he took people to the ghost market that night to arrest all the culprits." The prime minister couldn't help but praise when he said this, "It's quite the style of His Majesty back then."

"..."

Song You couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

Then he raised his eyes to look at the prime minister.

The emperor asked the prime minister to speak, perhaps because he wanted to see the prime minister's tendency.

At first Song You thought it was the prime minister who saw his nature, so he first told something that was not good for the second prince, and wanted to let himself know that the second prince was cruel and did not take human life seriously, but after a closer look, he realized that the prime minister didn't think so much, he was just talking about the courage and determination of the second prince.

Song You turned his head again and looked at the emperor.

Naturally, the emperor thought so too.

And feel that it is just and right, as it should be.

"Mr. Song? Mr. Song?"

"Ok?"

"Why don't you speak, sir?"

"nothing."

"Mr. is a practitioner and has a benevolent heart. This is a great kindness. However, you must also know that the emperor is the ruler of the world. Every move is related to the people's livelihood in the world. Maybe it is just a sentence, which is the difference between benefiting the people and floating corpses. The difference is the most important thing." The imperial court has already buried him generously and treated his family generously, so in desperation, it can be regarded as compensation."

"Yes……"

Song You could hear it.

Probably life has the meaning of high and low.

But he was right. The emperors of this era really ruled over the life and death of countless people, and were superior to the common people. Except that they had no divine power and could not live forever, maybe in some places they were more like gods than gods.

If the wrong emperor is chosen, there may be more deaths. Therefore, in the eyes of the prime minister and the emperor, it is really nothing for a Wu Desi captain to die in such a way.

Different eras have different rules and concepts. Song You doesn't comment on it, and doesn't argue about right or wrong. It's just that before he went down the mountain, this was indeed one of the reasons why he didn't like this world.Now that I heard what I saw on the spot, although I didn't get angry on the spot, I can't quite listen to what the prime minister said afterwards.

"It's getting late, and I'm a little tired, why don't I say goodbye to His Majesty."

"Sir, are you leaving now?"

"Your Majesty has prepared a song and dance troupe for you, sir. There is a song and dance troupe from the Western Regions."

"I won't watch it anymore."

"But where did I offend Mr.?"

"Just tired."

"Then I won't stay any longer." The old emperor stood up and hesitated for a while, "It will be my 72nd birthday in a few days, and I'm going to have a grand feast of civil and military affairs. Sir, do you have time..."

"I am a Taoist, and a Taoist loves tranquility."

"Okay." The emperor nodded, still not too embarrassing, "Just ask when will you leave Beijing again?"

"Leave Beijing at the beginning of spring."

"Which way will you go, sir, when you leave Beijing this time?"

"Not yet determined."

"The next time I come back, I'm afraid it will be a few years later."

"Yes."

"Sir, you may see how much life I have left?"

"From what I see below, if Your Majesty takes good care of his health, drinks less and works less, it will take at least one year and at most three years."

When the prime minister heard this, he couldn't help being taken aback.

In his impression, this kind of question, even if it is a national teacher, even if the emperor dares to ask, the national teacher would not dare to answer.Unexpectedly, this person not only answered, but also answered without hesitation.

Looking at His Majesty again, there was no anger, only regret.

"Then if I can see you again next time, sir, I'm afraid I've passed away, and I'm just a ghost."

"..."

Song You looked at him indifferently.

Suddenly there was a feeling in my heart that the next time I saw him, he might really be dead, already a ghost.

What would happen to the emperor at that time?

It took a long time for the Taoist to answer:
"Yes."

Then he thanked and said goodbye, and left the palace.

My cat ran out early, and she felt bored after listening to such a conversation, and she didn't know where she went.
