"Xiao'er, you are the only crown prince in Beiming." Bei Gonglie's voice softened a little.
Hearing this, Beigong Tengxiao showed a faint smile that did not reach his eyes and said: "In this case, I thank my father for your love."
The imperial edict was promulgated, Beigong Tengxiao was restored to the position of crown prince, and the government and the public were in turmoil.
Since Bei Gong Tengxiao returned to the imperial capital, he has wielded tremendous power and served as regent. Now that Bei Gong Lie's health has improved, his position as crown prince has been restored immediately. Even when the crown prince was deposed, Bei Gong Lie also Beigong Qianling has not been named the new crown prince, which inevitably makes Beigong Qianling's supporters hesitate.
And now,
Even Beigong Qianqiu's supporters are gradually wavering. Some are watching the situation quietly, while others can't wait to join Beigong Tengxiao.
There were heavy rains, and Xiang Qanting's luxurious court clothes and neatly combed hair were soaked by the rain. His wrinkled face lost the majesty it once had, and his long hair dyed with silver silk showed the vicissitudes of life, which made people sigh. .
Once upon a time, Xiang Yini was the crown prince, and Xiang Yinli was the second prince's concubine. He was the father-in-law of the only two princes in the dynasty. No matter which side gained power, all the benefits went to his Xianghou Mansion. He was also considered that person. One person is inferior to ten thousand people.
But after Xiang Yibi's death, Xiang Yini abandoned Beigong Tengxiao and went to Beigong Qianling. Not only did he bear the infamy of being a watery populace, dirty water was also poured on his doorstep.
The position of Prince Beigong Tengxiao has been deposed, but Beigong Lie has no intention of establishing Beigong Qianling as the crown prince.
Xiang Qanting was so worried that he could only hope that Beigong Tengxiao would never set foot in the imperial capital again.
In recent days, he has also devoted all his remaining energy to Beigong Qianling, with little effect.
Xiao Lanzi walked up to him, bowed slightly and said: "Master Xiang, you'd better leave as soon as possible. The emperor's dragon body has just recovered. What he needs now is purity. He won't see anyone today."
Xiang Qanting remained unmoved. He clenched his fists and shouted into the room: "Your Majesty! Please think twice! The identity of the regent has not yet been found out. I ask the emperor to take back his order on establishing a prince!"
Compared to the heavy rain outside, the house feels a little peaceful and peaceful.
Just the right lamp makes the indoor light soft and adds warmth.
The actor was playing elegant and soothing tunes beside him, making the actor feel relaxed and happy.
Bei Gong Tengxiao sat opposite Bei Gong Lie. On the table was a chessboard with several chess pieces.
In order to take into account the emperor's purity, the sound insulation effect of Qingxin Hall is extremely good. It is difficult to hear outside sounds unless you listen carefully.
Bei Gong Tengxiao, who has a good ear, heard Xiang Qanting's words word for word. He slightly raised the corners of his lips and twisted a warm white chess piece from the chess box with his two slender fingers. /p>
Slowly landed on the chessboard.
"I haven't played chess with you for a long time. I miss you very much." Bei Gonglie said with emotion.
Beigong Tengxiao's low-pitched voice sounded: "Prince Qi is also a good player at chess. During the time when my son is away, Prince Qi can also relieve his father's boredom."
Bei Gonglie shook his head mockingly and said meaningfully: "It's better to have my own son..."
Beigong Tengxiao showed a smile that did not reach his eyes and did not answer.
"Xiao'er, your father once showed too little care for you. You won't blame him, right?" Bei Gonglie's condescending tone actually had a hint of flattery at this moment.
Beigong Tengxiao once again gave birth to a son and said: "The father will always be the father, and he is the most respected person in the hearts of his sons."
Hearing this, Bei Gonglie's expression softened a little. He looked at the situation on the chessboard, smiled broadly, and said: "Xiao'er, your chess skills have improved a lot. Soon, I will no longer be your opponent." Beigong Tengxiao nodded humbly and said: "My father taught me well."
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, think twice!"
The noise outside the house was so loud that it finally disturbed Bei Gonglie.
He frowned dissatisfied and said, "What's the noise outside?"
The eunuch beside him understood, and after bowing, he walked out of the hall outside the bead curtain with small steps, opened the door slightly, and walked out.
After a while, he came back with a troubled face and knelt in front of Bei Gonglie, not knowing how to say: "Your Majesty, outside..."
Beigong Lie glanced at him and said, "Is it a landslide or an earthquake?"
A little cold sweat broke out on the eunuch's forehead and he said: "Yes...it's Lord Xiang..."
Hearing this name, Bei Gonglie frowned, and a trace of displeasure flashed across his eyes.
Recently, I have seen Xiang Qanting impeaching Beigong Tengxiao a lot, and the lackeys around Xiang Qanting have also handed over similar memorials. They are nothing more than questioning Beigong Tengxiao's identity, and his return to the throne has attracted countless criticisms.
.
This also made him think about how many difficult things Beigong Tengxiao had to deal with when he was acting as the regent, but he never mentioned a single word to him about these injustices.
After all, Beigong Tengxiao was also his biological son. He would be lying if he said he wasn't angry at being slandered like this. If it weren't for the fact that Xiang Qanting was used by the late emperor and he was a veteran in the court, he would have dragged him out and killed him with a cane.
Got it!
Beigong Lie raised his eyes and looked at Beigong Tengxiao and said, "Xiao'er, do you have anything to say to your father about Xiang Qanting?"
There was no emotion or anger on Beigong Tengxiao's handsome face. He said calmly: "My father is the ruler of Beiming. How to deal with Lord Xiang should be decided by my father."
Bei Gonglie raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, and said in a low voice: "Go, let him come in."
"Yes." The eunuch accepted the order with fear, then stood up and walked out quickly.
After a moment, Xiang Qanting came over in a state of embarrassment, knelt down resolutely in front of Bei Gonglie, as if he had suffered a great injustice, and said: "Please think twice, your Majesty, and take back the appointment of the crown prince!"
"Bang!" Bei Gonglie angrily slapped his palm on the armrest. He glared at Xiang Qanting and said, "Xiang Qanting, have you rebelled?"
Xiang Qanting's old attitude of being a mere follower has been wiped out, and his two daughters have died. Now he only has Beigong Qianling as a life-saving straw, and he has no choice but to put up with his old face.
He was like a bull, not afraid of Bei Gong Lie's roar, gritted his teeth and said: "Please think twice, Your Majesty, the identity of Prince Yu has not yet been found out, don't let the old thief from the East Palace sow cholera in our country!" ”
"Wow!" Bei Gonglie overturned the chessboard with one palm, and the chess pieces fell down, hitting him like rain.
After a few "thumps", the eunuch maids of Qingxin Palace knelt on the ground, trembling with fear and afraid to express their anger. Only Beigong Tengxiao still had the same faint expression, looking at Xiang kneeling in front of him tepidly. Qianting.
Bei Gonglie stood up and kicked Xiang Qanting hard on the shoulder. He was unsteady and almost fell backwards.
The two eunuchs supported him in time and said: "Your Majesty, be careful of the dragon body..."
