Chapter 125 The Emperor's Grief and Indignation

Not only women need sons, but also men need good sons.If the crown prince has a son who is talented and talented at this time, on the one hand, he himself will be very pleased, and on the other hand, even if the emperor is not satisfied with the prince, he will be more tolerant to the prince for the sake of having a good grandson.But the prince has no outstanding son, and has never had one.He and the Crown Princess had two daughters in succession in the first few years of their marriage, and then the Crown Princess always pushed him into the concubine's room. As time went by, he and the Crown Princess became less and less close, and naturally they couldn't have a son.The two concubine sons born by concubine Ji probably followed their own mothers, and they are not smart.Because of this, the prince began to worry and worry two years ago. He made a special trip to draft in Gusu in order to select a beautiful woman so that he could give birth to a smart child.

It's a pity that he didn't achieve his wish after so much tossing around in Gusu.

After the prince was imprisoned in the Ciqing Palace by the emperor, he was not depressed or anxious, but practiced calligraphy and reading calmly, looking very confident.At this time, the emperor sent someone to take Ah Qi and Ah Jin away, but the crown prince was touched to a sore spot, he couldn't practice calligraphy, he couldn't read books, and he was no longer calm and peaceful.Over [-] years old, nothing accomplished, let alone, he doesn't even have an intelligent son!

The Crown Princess looked at him apologetically, and said in a low voice, "It's all my fault, I messed up the matter." The Crown Princess often blamed herself these two days, if she forced someone to rush in, no matter how powerful King Wei was, there would be nothing he could do about it. ?The crown prince will get his wish, and His Majesty has nothing to say that the deal is done. If His Majesty is not willing, so what can he do.

The prince was impatient, "What's the use of talking about this now? You go out, I want to be alone for a while." With tears in her eyes, the princess bowed her knees and retreated silently.

The crown prince was upset, he couldn't see all the officials in the East Palace, only the concubines, maids, and servants in the Ciqing Palace, and he didn't even have anyone who could discuss it.He walked around the room a few times irritatedly, sat down in front of the table, and tried to organize his thoughts: Abolishing the crown prince is a big deal, what should the queen do if the crown prince is abolished?What about King Wei?What about Ningshou Fushou?What's more, the thing I've revealed is just wanting to find a girl from an official family. Of course, such a thing is not good for personal morality, but it won't go to the point of abolishing the prince.His Majesty has always acted steadily, so he should not make the decision to abolish the Crown Prince rashly.Even if His Majesty wants it, the courtiers will definitely dissuade it, and it will be difficult to implement it in the short term.

If it takes a long time... the prince's eyes turned cold.Your Majesty, how long can he live?
My fate depends on how long His Majesty can live.The prince looked at a bare tree outside the window, with both fear and hope in his eyes.Unfortunately, if the emperor dies suddenly tonight, for the prince, it will be a blessing from heaven.Because he is still a legitimate prince, so the emperor went, and he is the undoubted heir.But if the emperor is safe and sound night after night, it will be very unpleasant for the prince, and the future is uncertain.

A sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of the prince's lips, "Father, you are already very disappointed in me. You won't like my two sons either. They don't even like my own father. I, you I don’t like it; Ah Qi, Ah Jin, you don’t like it, what will you do?”

You must be reluctant to kill me. I am your eldest son, your first child, and I am very important to urinating.If you abolish me, there will be many people involved. Even if you really make up your mind, the courtiers will not agree.It can't be killed, it can't be destroyed, you can think of a way slowly.When you figure out a way, maybe you have... Then you will be my world.

In the Palace of Qianqing, King Wei buried his head between the desks, the emperor leaned on the couch, and there were three boys on the ground: Princess Fushou's Maoxing, the prince's Ajia and Ajin, the three boys were not very old, the emperor ordered them Playing casually, seeing that the emperor is easy-going, they don't feel restrained, running around in the palace to fight.The emperor looked at the three children coldly, Ah Qi was a little silly, Ah Jin was not clever, and even Mao Xing couldn't compare.This kind of qualification, it seems, is not satisfactory at all.

The emperor raised his eyes again to look at the attentive King Wei, and sighed softly.Xiao Ten, you are good at everything, but you are too simple.You are seventeen this year, and the biggest worry in your life is not being able to see your junior sister, and suffering from lovesickness.

King Wei turned a deaf ear to the noise of his nephew and younger nephew playing, and focused on his work.The emperor's eyes stayed on him for a long time, but he didn't seem to notice it at all.

"Stinky boy, you are planning to finish your work quickly so that you can go out and curry favor with your father-in-law and brothers." Looking at the appearance of his youngest son, the emperor thought of his infatuation, and felt a little angry for some reason.Xiao Shi, do you know that you are thinking about Junior Sister?

The three boys were running and fighting on the ground. The emperor was disturbed and ordered the servant, "Send Brother Xing to the Second Princess, and Brother Cai and Brother Jin to Ciqing Palace." Each of the boys was sent back home.

Not long after the three children were sent away, King Wei came over on a business trip, and cautiously asked, "Father, can I go and see my mother?" Empress Zhang's Kunning Palace was heavily guarded at the moment, without the emperor's permission, King Wei asked Can't even get in.

The emperor was even more angry.It turned out that he was not going to please the men of the Pei family, he was going to see his partial and confused mother! "Xiao Shi, you are so filial." The emperor said flatly: "No matter how your mother treats you, you are always filial and respectful as before."

King Wei knelt down slowly, and kowtowed respectfully, "I couldn't sleep all night, and I blamed my mother very much in my heart. I am the little prince who was born, and I obviously don't have to do anything. As long as you marry the girl you love as your wife, you can live a leisurely life. But my mother must be right with me, so I won't let me feel at ease."

King Wei's voice was low, obviously extremely aggrieved.After hearing this, the emperor felt a little more comfortable.He patted King Wei, "Speak well, what are you doing kowtow?" King Wei was depressed, "Xiao Shi complained about mother in his heart, and felt ashamed that he was not filial." The emperor smiled, "Then don't complain." King Wei Shaking his head seriously, "The more I think about it, the more I complain."

The emperor looked at the beautiful and serious face of his youngest son, and smiled, "I promise you to visit Kunning Palace. There is also Ciqing Palace, do you want to go?"

"No!" King Wei's expression was full of anger.

The emperor looked at him inquiringly, "Don't talk about brotherhood anymore? Xiao Shi, you have been very good with your elder brother since you were young."

King Wei was annoyed, "I used to think the same way. Apart from my father and mother, my elder brother and elder sister and second sister are my closest relatives. Who would have thought that he would..." Tears swirled in his eyes, and he couldn't help it. Lying on the emperor's lap, weeping silently.

The emperor's state affairs and family affairs are piled up in front of him at the moment, which is really annoying. Seeing King Wei crying, he is actually happy in his heart.Xiao Ten, you will be sad too, you also have troubles, very good.I am busy thinking about something all day long, but you only think about my junior sister, Xiao Shi, you have lived comfortably for too long.

"How are you doing?" the emperor asked with a smile.

"I'll never see him in my life!" King Wei said stubbornly.

"If I can live for 1 years, you can do this. What if I go? Xiao Shi, he will be the emperor then, what are you going to say against him?" The emperor stared at his youngest son and asked mercilessly.

When King Wei came out of Qianqing Palace, he did not go to see Empress Zhang, but went to the General Secretary instead. "Teacher, I have a question to ask you!" King Wei was eager to see Second Master Pei.

Second Master Pei was busy with official business. When he saw King Wei coming, his expression was calm, "Is your Highness a business or a private matter? If there is a business matter, please tell me. If it is a private matter, please come back after the application time." King Wei bowed respectfully, "Mr. , The student has a private matter to consult. I will wait for you." Second Master Pei ordered someone to bring him a chair, "Please sit down, Your Highness." King Wei sat in the hall where Second Master Pei worked, waiting for the teacher to get off work.

When Second Master Pei was about to leave the Department of General Affairs, Pei Qi and Pei Yu came, "Daddy, we both saw a fan in Guhuai Hutong, it looked like an antique, please help me palm it." Second Master Pei smiled, " Appreciating antiques, I should look for your sister. This, she is good at it.” The father and son three laughed, didn’t they, little Ajiu bought a tripod from the Zhou Dynasty, a jade from the Han Dynasty, and also got a picture of the Tang Dynasty by the way. painting!She is good at it, she is the best at it.

King Wei's heart itched when he heard this, and he hurriedly said: "Teacher, I'll go too." Pei Qi saw him when he heard what he said, and hurried over to pay respects, "I don't know that Your Highness is here, begging for forgiveness." I have seen it before, King Wei and Pei's father and son went to Guhuai Alley to look at the ancient fan.The shopkeeper asked for three hundred gold, and Second Master Pei clicked his tongue, "This price is worth Ajiu's five treasures." Pei Qi and Pei Yu also laughed, "Isn't that true, my sister bought those five antiques for nothing. How much." The shopkeeper is a middle-aged, fat businessman, and he lowered the price again and again very accommodatingly, and finally sold for thirty gold.

The asking price is three hundred, and the deal is thirty?King Wei watched from the sidelines, his eyes wide open.

Coming out of Guhuai Hutong, King Wei warmly invited his teacher and seniors to a banquet, and congratulated them on finding a fan they liked.Second Master Pei and his son also felt that this was something worth celebrating, and readily agreed, "Let's go."

Second Master Pei sent his servants back to Jiuning Street, "The three of us won't be home until later." The servants ordered him to leave, and Pei Xuan kindly told King Wei, "If we come home late, we will send someone back to say Let me know, my grandma will miss you." King Wei greatly agreed, "It's absolutely right! Sixth brother, if I go home late, I will tell my family."

The four of them went to Yuhua Terrace, asked for a private room, and divided the guests and hosts into seats.Second Master Pei is an elder, he doesn't like to hang out with young people, he sits alone, King Wei didn't dare to approach him when he saw that his face was not good, and kept getting close to the third and sixth brothers.

"There's something, I don't know if I should tell you." Pei Xuan drank three glasses of light wine, with a troubled expression on his face.

Seeing his expression, King Wei suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

Pei Qi was very serious, "What's wrong with this? But it's okay to say. Grandpa intends to find a well-behaved and obedient son-in-law for my little sister, so that my little sister can live a peaceful life under the noses of three generations of the Pei family."

The wine glass in King Wei's hand fell to the table with a bang.

Pei Qi was calm and composed, "We originally wanted to choose a husband-in-law for our little sister who could protect her, but later we found it very difficult. In this case, why don't we recruit a son-in-law to come and protect my little sister for the rest of my life."

King Wei also forgot to ask the teacher the question he wanted to ask. He didn't know what the food tasted like in his mouth, so he went back to the palace in a daze.

The emperor was annoyed when he saw him like this, "Have you met your teacher? Does he have any insight to teach you?" Instead of asking your father, he ran to ask the teacher, is he kissing or mine?
King Wei knelt down and kowtowed, and the emperor frowned, "Why do you kowtow again? Xiao Shi, what have you done to do something wrong?" King Wei whispered: "Xiao Shi has something to ask. Father, please teach me how I can protect Xiao Shi. Junior sister." Said the words of the Pei family brothers.

The emperor looked up to the sky and was speechless, his grief and indignation unspeakable.Xiao Shi, it's fine that you've been thinking about Junior Sister for the past ten years, but now that it's such a critical juncture, is it because of Junior Sister that you are willing to go on the right path?
"You really want to protect little junior sister?"

"Ah."

"If you will be very bitter, very tired..."

"I'm not afraid."

"Really not afraid?"

"Not afraid."
