Su Meng was wearing a Confucian scholar's uniform and a scholar's scarf, and asked Concubine Ren curiously.
"Concubine, you asked Nanny Li to notify the son to come. Is there anything wrong with this?"
Su Meng looked arrogant. He thought of the eldest prince Su Shu becoming the crown prince.
Many people in the palace went to the East Palace with gifts to curry favor with the prince.
He has grown up and does not want his mother and concubine to suffer injustice because of him.
When Concubine Ren saw Su Meng like this, she smiled and said: "Xiao Meng, Concubine Concubine asked you to come here today because your uncle Ezhe sent a telegram.
He moved a branch of the Chahar tribe to Kazakhstan. The tribe lived very well on the Chahar grassland. The pastures there were fertile and the cattle and sheep grew well. The tribe has now grown stronger."
After Concubine Ren finished speaking, he handed the telegram to Su Meng.
Su Meng still had some impressions of his uncle Ezhe, who was not very reliable.
When he was about to enter elementary school, Uncle Ezhe spent some time in the capital, and they could see each other often at that time.
Then Uncle Ezhe went to work for the Chahar tribe, and they didn't see each other for several years.
Su Meng knew about the relationship between him and Uncle Ezhe. He definitely did not have a strong relationship with his mother and concubine who grew up together and experienced the tribe's almost extinction. They lived and died together with his uncle.
He looked at the telegram and saw that every line contained good news for the tribe.
After Su Meng read the telegram, he asked curiously: "Mother, concubine, Uncle Ezhe missed the old man of the Chahar tribe in the telegram.
There are not many people in the Chahar tribe, so why do some of them stay near Tongliao, some go to settle near Beihai, and some go to the Kazakh grasslands to settle.
If this is the Three Cunning Rabbits' Cave, it is completely unnecessary. The three tribes are very far apart and it is impossible for them to help each other."
Concubine Ren saw that Su Meng knew nothing about politics, which was also related to his childhood education.
Su Meng only received the general education provided by the royal family, but did not receive the specialized training provided by the royal family for elite princes.
His knowledge has been incomparable to that of the eldest prince Su Shu and the second prince Su Lei since he was a child.
Concubine Ren looked at Su Meng's curious eyes and answered, "This is your grandfather's last wish.
As the last great king of the Mongol Empire, your grandfather's abilities were indeed low and he was almost destroyed by Hou Jin.
But your grandpa is definitely quite knowledgeable in some aspects.
Before his death, he had seen that empire was the general trend.
All the grassland tribes who disobeyed the empire had a bad end.
The Chahar tribe is the grassland tribe that most cooperates with the imperial policies.
All of Uncle Ezhe's actions are to cooperate with the empire's policies and set an example for other hesitant grassland tribes.
Only by doing this can the Chahar tribe get the opportunity to develop and grow."
After Su Meng listened, he nodded in understanding.
But he already understood that the mother-in-law used such a tone, which showed that Uncle Ezhe could not help himself.
The mother and son were talking when the bell on the table rang.
The ringing sound is very harsh in the quiet room.
This is a reminder from the ladies outside that someone they cannot stop is about to come in.
Ren Fei set up an electric bell in the room, mainly to prevent his whispers with Su Meng from being spread out.
Many things can be said in private, but once word spreads, many twists and turns will occur out of thin air in the lives of the mother and son.
Concubine Ren had just adjusted herself. The female officer responsible for maintaining order in the palace knocked on the door and walked in.
"Concubine Ren, the young eunuch sent by His Majesty to deliver the edict. He handed several copies of the edict to his subordinates and left in a hurry."
Concubine Ren immediately took the imperial edict from her subordinates and asked them to continue guarding outside the door.
She is no stranger to this kind of decree-issuing situation, except for the emperor's special instructions and special matters.
The little eunuch no longer holds a complicated ceremony when issuing an edict, allowing the parties involved to bow down on the spot.
Concubine Ren opened these imperial edicts and briefly read the contents.
Just after reading most of it, the imperial edict slipped from her hands and fell on the table.
Concubine Ren's tears kept flowing down her face. She looked at Su Meng and said aggrievedly: "We, mother and son, are outsiders after all.
The mother and concubine originally thought that Xiao Meng would not be able to win the honor of the Nine-Five-Year Plan, so there would be no problem if he was just a prince sitting in charge."
Concubine Ren sighed, she shed tears silently, not daring to cry loudly.
Su Meng briefly read the content of the imperial edict, which was about the arrangements for these princes.
He immediately stepped forward, held his mother's hand, and said with a forced smile: "Concubine, this situation has been very clear since I was in elementary school.
The eldest princess Su Rong and I just went to elementary school according to our normal schedule.
Su Shu and Su Lei, they have teachers to provide tutoring after class.
Growing up, I was used to the fact that I was very different from other people.
After all, I have Mongolian blood, and all the ministers in the court are staring at me.
As a dandy prince, these ministers will not pay attention to me.
I really want to go further, but I can't get the approval of the court at all.
This matter has nothing to do with my mother-in-law."
Ren Fei felt that she was useless and she was not as strong as Xiao Meng.
She knew that what Xiao Meng said was true. From the day he was born, Xiao Meng had no chance.
Concubine Ren stopped crying, looked at Su Meng and asked: "Xiao Meng, the imperial decree says that you can choose what you like to do, and the royal family will strongly support it.
What are you going to do?"
Su Meng responded with wide eyes: "Mother, concubine, I have thought about it before.
The grassland is my second hometown, and I want to do more for the herdsmen.
The current breeds of cattle and sheep in the empire are too single. I plan to go to college to study breeding so that sheep with more wool and cattle with more beef can enter thousands of households on the grassland."
Su Meng knew very clearly about himself that he could not become the master of the empire, or even the vassal king.
After being crowned, he could only become a duke with title but no power.
He just wants to raise his hopes now. No matter who becomes the emperor, he will not attack a prince who has no power and a high reputation.
Su Meng's choice not only realizes her ideals, but also provides him with protection.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! He knew that from beginning to end, in the competition for the throne, he had already been eliminated, and there was no chance at any time.
Now that the ownership of the throne has been settled, he has absolutely no chance.
Give up this idea completely now and life will be easier in the future.
…………………………
Concubine Li Huixin was also in the palace reading the newly issued imperial edict from Emperor Su He.
After reading it, she immediately felt cold all over her body.
"I lost, I lost completely."
She gritted her teeth and said: "Wang Wenjun, when I was young, I couldn't compete for favors and get more love from my husband than you.
Why am I still a loser compared to children?"
Concubine Li Huixin thought of something. She opened the door and shouted angrily: "Call Su Lei here immediately."
She kept reviewing her practices in the past few years, and Li Huixin, the concubine of De, has done everything she can do to perfection.
Even if she chooses again, she still can't find a better way.
The strength gap between her and Queen Wang Wenjun is not as big as imagined.
Concubine Li Huixin recalled carefully that her husband's attitude toward Su Lei changed significantly when he was sent back by the army.
Su Lei couldn't stand the environment in the military camp and acted like a playboy in the military camp.
He didn't stay for a few days before he was sent back to the city by military law.
De Fei Li Huixin now recalls that her husband's face didn't change much at that time, but his attitude had changed significantly.
When this situation officially occurred, even though the eldest prince Su Shu had been away for more than two years, Su Lei tried all kinds of methods, but he still could not regain his husband's love.
Su Lei panicked and came to his mother's study.
He saw his mother holding a ruler in her hand and looking at him angrily.
Su Lei had never seen such a scene before. He was so frightened that his heart trembled and he said in a trembling voice:
"Mom, if you have something to say, please tell me and don't do anything."
The concubine Li Huixin had just suffered a serious illness, but she was a female soldier in the army and her physical fitness was extremely good.
She immediately stepped forward, closed the door first, then held down Su Lei with one hand, and hit Su Lei with a ruler in the other hand.
Concubine Li Huixin scolded you angrily while beating her: "You're such a loser, I should have been cruel and taught you a lesson a long time ago."
Su Lei was hit by the ruler and kept screaming. He quickly begged for mercy: "Mother, you can't kill me without teaching me."
What mistake did I make? Please tell me clearly before I fight."
The concubine Li Huixin saw that Su Lei was only hit a few times with a ruler, and it didn't hurt her, so she started wailing miserably.
Seeing this situation, Consort Li Huixin became even more angry and took action even more forcefully.
Su Lei was sweating from pain. He stood aside and didn't know why he was beaten.
He can't stand still now, let alone sit.
Now he just wants to lie down on the ground, but he can't lie down in front of his mother, otherwise he will be beaten again.
After the concubine Li Huixin beat Su Lei, the depression in her heart was completely released.
She handed the imperial edict to Su Lei to read, letting him know why he suffered this beating and learn from it in the future.
After De Fei Li Huixin went out, she was not affected by anger and thought of details that she had not noticed before.
She pointed her ruler at Su Lei and shouted loudly: "Su Lei, some time ago, were you being clever again?"
Concubine Li Huixin immediately said that because of that incident, her husband did not like Su Lei as much as before.
But he always gave Su Lei a chance to compete with the eldest prince Su Shu.
Even if Su Shu becomes the prince for various reasons, Su Lei will still be given a chance according to her husband's style of doing things.
From some words in the imperial edict, we can clearly see some of my husband's thoughts.
Su Lei must have done something to make her husband displeased and excluded him directly. Even if he was to train the prince again, he did not want to continue to train Su Lei.
Su Lei saw his mother staring at him angrily.
He knew that he could no longer hide it, so he said hesitantly that he had discussed a strategy with his confidants to discredit the eldest prince.
Consort Li Huixin angrily cursed: "Idiot, you are as stupid as a pig, how could I give birth to a son like you.
Everything in the capital is under your father's control.
Your father doesn't have this ability, he can't sleep at night.
You think you are unaware of everything, and everything falls into the eyes of your father, making you look naive and stupid.
Now your father is completely disappointed with you and plans to send you to the border, what will you do now?"
After Su Lei read the contents of the imperial edict, he said in a panic: "Mother, what should I do about my current situation?
I really don’t want to leave the capital and go to the bitter cold places on the border.”
The concubine Li Huixin was also reluctant to leave her. Su Lei never left her side for too long.
He is now alone and heading to the border areas to develop a country.
I really don’t know if Su Lei can survive this test.
The concubine Li Huixin thought that Su Lei had many fatal weaknesses due to her doting.
This is Su Lei's last chance. He must not let Su Lei miss this important opportunity because of his doting.
Concubine Li Huixin said firmly: "The choice your father gave you was to choose one of the two.
It is already destined that you leave the capital and go to the frontier, and no change is allowed.
Before you leave, Weiniang will help you build a top team so that you can establish yourself locally.
Now it's my mother's turn to make a choice for you. You must not go to Australia, which looks very comfortable.
Really you have only one option, and that is to go to the territories bordering Persia."
Su Lei has a basic understanding of the situation in various parts of the empire.
He felt that wherever he went, he would encounter extremely dangerous situations.
Just as Su Lei was about to delay, his mother's voice sounded again, making Su Lei's already dead heart become active again.
"Su Lei, have you ever watched a football match?
Before the final result is settled, any situation may happen.
Your current situation is that you are playing a rematch.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Your performance in the border country will be your only chance.
If you can't impress your father, you will be the vassal king forever, are you really willing to do so?"
Su Lei didn't need to think about it, he replied seriously: "Mother, ever since I can remember, you have instilled in me the need to compete with the eldest prince.
Surpassing Su and Shu has become one of my life goals.
I will never give up until the dust finally settles."
When Su Lei said this, his tone was extremely firm.
He used to be a little impetuous in doing things. That was because even if he made a mistake, his mother would explain it to him from behind.
Now he was alone and about to go to a place adjacent to Persia.
Persia was a country full of martial virtues and was also known as a big food in history.
It is recorded in history books that the Tang Dynasty competed with Dashi for the Western Region.
In the end, due to reasons such as logistics and the rebellion of allies, the Tang Dynasty directly lost the war with Dashi and never had the chance to return to the Western Regions.
Persia's reputation now is not as loud as before.
Which one is stronger or weaker, Persia or the Empire? Any ordinary person on the streets of the capital can answer the question correctly.
Persia cannot cause much harm to the empire, but if it confronts his small vassal state, it is still extremely risky.
Su Lei realized that his life was in danger and it was difficult for others to help him.
He realized that everything that followed had to be decided by himself.
Su Lei feels that he has truly grown up and can only rely on himself for the rest of his life.
The concubine Li Huixin saw obvious changes in Su Lei.
She was happy about Su Lei's change, so that she could have a chance to compete for the throne.
She immediately became soft-spoken and discussed the future situation of the country with Su Lei.
The mother and son finally reached an agreement and chose the land adjacent to Persia to become Sule's fiefdom.
The palace was the first to receive these newly issued imperial edicts.
As the imperial edict spread, civil and military officials from other dynasties also quickly learned the contents of the imperial edict.
Many people realized that Prince Su Shu's position was stable and wanted to go and curry favor with him.
A small number of knowledgeable people clearly feel that the selection of the imperial prince is far from settled.
