Chapter 52
The maidservant, who had kept her own law and order, began to feel a little restless, and the officials in Xuancheng who heard the news also began to make plans.The prince only has the concubine and no other women, so as long as he gives his daughter and sister to the prince, he will feel proud.

In their view, if the prince can stand up, the emperor will naturally entrust him with important tasks, and he is no longer just an idle prince guarding a pure land.The palace, which was originally quiet, began to be flooded with people.The nickname is: I wish the prince good health!

The news flew into the Eastern Palace of the imperial city like a bird with wings. Ning An angrily swept down the books on the desk, his hands clenched into fists, and his white joints showed how angry he was.

His gaze turned cold, and he gritted his teeth: "Ning Yun, I should have killed you a long time ago to avoid future troubles. I never thought that you would be unharmed! This time, I will not be relentless!"

The careful eunuch saw a corner of the desk, and the prince slapped it hard, and a corner was missing.I couldn't help trembling in my heart, luckily I wasn't human, otherwise, the missing corner would be my life.

Royal study.

The emperor who was over half a hundred years old sat on the dragon chair, looking a little old.He stood up slowly, and Eunuch Zhuang hurried forward to support him, bending over very respectfully.

The emperor looked at a beautiful woman in palace costume on the wall, and tears welled up in his eyes.I don't know where my thoughts have gone.Eunuch Zhuang looked up at the woman in the painting, sighed softly, and shook his head.

The woman in the painting was the emperor's favorite concubine when he was young—Concubine Xi, who died of poisoning seven years after she gave birth to the third prince, who is now Prince Yun.This incident was a sensation back then, and in the end, it was found that the murderer was the maid next to Concubine Xi.As for the reason, but did not find out, the maid bit her tongue and committed suicide.

I always thought, felt that there were still unresolved doubts in it, but because there was no evidence, I had no choice but to let it go.Afterwards, Prince Yun became inexplicably stupid and paralyzed.No one knew what was going on, and later, the emperor sent him to Xuancheng, and he was not allowed to enter Beijing until he was passed on.

Eunuch Zhuang stood behind the emperor, just bowed his head and did not speak.No one dared to guess the emperor's thoughts and emotions unless he told them.

After a long time, the emperor let out a long sigh, "Zhuang Jing, how long has Concubine Xi been gone?"

Zhuang Jing is the name of Eunuch Zhuang.Eunuch Zhuang took a step forward and glanced at the woman in the painting, "My lord is 18 this year, and Concubine Xi has been gone for [-] years."

There was sadness in his words, the woman in the painting was unparalleled in beauty, she was so beautiful at the time, it's a pity, the beauty is unlucky!
"It's been 18 years, I'm old." The emperor turned around, and Zhuang Jing stepped forward to hold his hand again, bowing.

"How old is the emperor? The emperor is immortal."

The emperor remained indifferent to Zhuang Jing's flattery.Sitting on the couch, he murmured: "Back then, Yun'er became inexplicably stupid and paralyzed. I was heartbroken. No matter how many famous imperial physicians there were, I had no choice but to keep him away from the capital. After so many years, he was finally not stupid or paralyzed." , now, my heart is more at ease than ever before. Concubine Xi is the spirit in heaven, and finally she can protect Yun'er as a normal person."

"My lord is like an ordinary person, so the emperor doesn't need to be sad anymore. It's already New Year's Eve, why don't you invite the lord and concubine to return to Beijing to accompany the emperor to celebrate the new year."

The emperor nodded, "Alright!"

After finishing speaking, a slight sadness was cast on his face.Once, he had three sons, but he pardoned the whole world.He was even more interested in making Ning Yun the successor. At that time, Concubine Xi said that Yun'er was too young to be premature.Unexpectedly, due to unforeseen circumstances, Concubine Xi died of poisoning, and Ning Yun suddenly became stupid and became paralyzed.

At that time, he let go of what an emperor should look like, and was completely a man who loved his wife and children.It's just that the world does not allow him to put too much affection on the love of his children.Later, when Ning Yun's treatment failed, he was sent to Xuancheng to live out Ning Yun's life. From then on, if he could see Ning Yun, he would try not to call him back to the palace.He also named the queen the next year, that is, the son of Concubine Yun as the prince.

For so many years, the empress is really the mother of a country and the example of women in the world.Manage the affairs of the harem properly, and the prince is even more filial and responsible.Handling affairs is even more deeply in his heart.But the only thing that makes him feel a little dissatisfied is that the crown prince is too cruel, and those who make mistakes must not be easily spared.

This point of the prince is naturally not as magnanimous as Ning Yun's before.Now that Ning Yun has fully recovered, he was secretly moved with compassion, and wanted to abolish the crown prince and establish Ning Yun to comfort the spirit of Concubine Xi. He also thought it was the best arrangement, after all, Ning Yun was his favorite candidate for the crown prince.

"Zhuang Jing, is it better for the crown prince to be the emperor, or for Yun'er to be the emperor?"

Zhuang Jing was so frightened that his face paled and his legs trembled.How could he, a eunuch, be able to discuss this kind of important matter!Surprised, I also thought of another layer. Could it be that the emperor meant to exchange reserves by saying this?The prince has been the prince for more than ten years, and he has long been stable.At this time, does it mean that you can change it if you change it?But it will shake the country and the country and the officials.

Not long ago, the prince chose a concubine, but he attracted many ministers.Even the prime minister has two daughters who have become concubines of the crown prince, and the daughter of the Minister of War, the eldest daughter of the general Zhen Guo... If you want to change the crown prince, it will affect the whole body!

Seeing that Zhuang Jing remained silent, the emperor glared at him angrily, "Don't dare to say? I allow you to say it."

Zhuang Jing moved his lips tremblingly, God knows that his current mood is overwhelming.The emperor ordered him to speak, but he dared not stop.

"The slave is bold. The prince has been the prince in the hearts of the subjects for many years, and he is regarded as the emperor for granted. Although the prince has recovered, he has no experience in handling political affairs. Moreover, the prince only has one wife with the princess, and the prince is different. The daughter of a minister is a concubine, so the crown prince is not only a king, but also a son-in-law in the hearts of the ministers. Regardless of whether it is public or private, they will definitely not agree. The emperor must be cautious about changing the crown prince."

After he said these words with his head in his hands, Zhuang Jing's hands broke out in cold sweat. If the emperor doesn't listen to him, his life will be over tonight.The so-called authorities are obsessed, but bystanders are clear, this is the truth.

The emperor's thick eyebrows never loosened for a moment, and in the end, he just let out a long sigh.Yes, how could he fail to see such a simple truth and such an obvious situation.No matter how much he likes Ning Yun, it doesn't help now.That's all, it's just that I don't have that thought.

Seeing the emperor's brows loosen, Zhuang Jing's heart fell to the ground.The heartbeat has not calmed down yet.Companion to the king is like companion to the tiger, nothing more than this.Looking at the time, he walked over and said softly: "Your Majesty, it's getting late, let's rest earlier."

Recently, the emperor's health was a little sick, so he didn't invite his concubine to sleep with him.He only sleeps in his own Dragon Rest Hall.
