If we want Daliang not to repeat the mistakes of the past, the turbulent situation in the court must be cleared, your majesty will no longer be afraid of suppressing the prince, the military and government will be united, the treasury will be full, the soldiers and horses will be fat, and the generals will be strong.
King Ruian thought to himself, how difficult this is!
Today's situation is slightly better than it was sixteen years ago, but only slightly.
After the eldest princess Sheng'an said something, she saw that King Ruian's face was heavy. Apparently she had listened. She added as if unintentionally, "Your Majesty often suffers from headaches recently. It's getting colder and colder today."
Already."
The first half of this sentence has nothing to do with the second half, but King Ruian felt a thump in his heart. When did His Majesty start having headaches? It seemed to be last year, but it was only occasionally.
Too much, let His Majesty rest in peace, but His Majesty is very suspicious and defensive. With the Crown Prince Zhuyu in front of him and the prestigious Protector of the Country by his side, how can he sleep well every day?
If you have a headache occasionally, that's fine, but if you have a headache all the time, it's not a trivial matter.
Your Majesty is still in the prime of life, at the peak of spring and autumn, and has no physical or mental weakness. The headaches may be big or small.
King Ruian asked cautiously: "What did the imperial doctor say?"
Princess Sheng'an said: "Who dares to ask about Your Majesty's dragon body?"
King Ruian thought so too.
The eldest princess of Sheng'an talked about Xie Lin again, "Xie Lin is a really good kid. I didn't expect that he and Brother Gu actually got on well with each other after a fight. They both have the temperament of a child."
King Ruian suddenly remembered Zhou Gu's life-saving grace to Xie Lin, and immediately thanked him, "I would also like to thank Young Master Zhou. Without his vigilance and protection, something would have happened to the dog."
Princess Sheng'an waved her hand and said, "Xie Lin has already thanked you. We don't need to worry about their friendship as young people."
The implication is that the Duke Protector's Office does not accept such great affection, and the two children Zhou Gu and Xie Lin decide their friendship on their own.
King Ruian understood what Princess Sheng'an said, but he still had to remember it in his heart. After all, the ten thousand sons he didn't want to take the trouble to cultivate were easily lost before they entered the court.
While the two were talking, they came outside the imperial study room.
King Ruian got off the carriage first and then gave Princess Sheng'an a virtual hand. Princess Sheng'an waved to him and said, "You go see His Majesty first. I'm going to chat with the Queen. I haven't seen the Queen for a long time."
King Ruian was not sure of the purpose of Princess Sheng'an entering the palace, so he nodded and had no choice but to go see the emperor himself first.
The emperor was asking Yu An to rub his head, and was also talking about his headache. "I feel like my head is about to explode recently. Yu An, do you think I'm too indulgent to Yan Li?"
Eunuch Yu thought to himself, you not only indulged the eldest prince, you also indulged the second prince and many people. Except for being strict with the prince and keeping a close eye on the Duke Protector's Office, you were lax on everything else.
But of course he couldn't say these words. He pressed gently and slowly, calmly comforting the emperor, "Your Majesty, you should think more about the positive side of things. Maybe the matter of the eldest prince's concubine has nothing to do with your highness."
The emperor snorted coldly, "A couple sleeping in the same bed, if one is not clean, how can the other be clean? This is just a statement to fool a three-year-old child."
Eunuch Yu shut up.
The emperor added: "What a good Ning Yao. She married into the royal family and has nothing to do. Now she has committed a crime and has an heir in her belly."
Eunuch Yu kept silent. He could not speak randomly when it came to the emperor's heirs.
The emperor closed his eyes and said again: "I don't want to be ashamed of my ancestors, my late emperor, and I don't want to be ashamed of myself..."
He wanted to say something, but when he reached his mouth, he paused and his face changed, "I want to see Su Rong. Please make arrangements tonight. I will leave the palace secretly and go to Shen's Mansion. I will inform Shen Xian and ask him to prepare and not reveal it to anyone." News, no one is allowed."
Eunuch Yu was shocked and said, "Your Majesty, there is too much chaos in the capital now. Why don't you secretly invite someone to the palace to see you?"
The emperor shook his head, "No."
Eunuch Yu looked at the emperor's face and nodded in response, "I will make arrangements later."
After being informed that King Ruian was coming, the emperor sat up straight and waved to Yu An, who immediately went out to welcome him.
King Ruian entered the royal study and after paying homage to the emperor, he keenly noticed two red fingerprints on the emperor's forehead. He immediately lowered his head and reported the progress of the case without any distractions.
The emperor heard that Ning Yao had been recruited, and looked at Ning Yao's confession, his face turned black, "The Marquis of Nanping really raised a good daughter. They say that women have the most poisonous hearts. I think she is more poisonous than a poisonous snake."
The emperor was so angry that he ordered Eunuch Yu, "Bring Zhao Lao'er and his son here."
Eunuch Yu responded and immediately took the people there.
After the eldest princess Sheng'an entered the palace, she went straight to the Queen's Fengyi Palace. When the queen saw the eldest princess Sheng'an coming, she quickly stood up and walked out of the main hall, "Auntie, why are you here?"
After being warned by Yan Huisheng, the Queen never interfered in his affairs again. Even if the concubines and concubines in the palace were controlled by His Majesty, and even if there were several major cases outside the palace, she was really worried, but she didn't mess up. Measured.
The eldest princess of Sheng'an patted the queen's hand, followed her into the inner hall, and explained the purpose of her visit, "I just came to see you, and by the way, I helped King Ruian and set up a situation for him to make his investigation of the case smoother. "
The queen was puzzled, "A game?"
"Yes, let's make a move." Princess Sheng'an said: "You are in charge of the Sixth Palace. If something happens in the palace, the front and back palaces, even if it is not your fault, will feel that you, the queen, did not do a good job, and will There are harsh criticisms, being bitten, and criticism of the prince. But it is different when I sit with you in the palace."
After all, her power from the past is still there, and no one dares to criticize her, the eldest princess.
When the queen heard this, she understood immediately and straightened her body, "Auntie, what's going to happen in the palace?"
"You'll know later." Princess Sheng'an signaled her to be calm.
The queen could only stop asking and became concerned about Zhou Gu, "How is Brother Gu's condition? Is it serious?"
"It's nothing serious." Princess Sheng'an shook her head, "His child doesn't take good care of his injuries. He is young and has good health. He sits on the bed reading every day and refuses to listen to him. This is really worrying."
The queen said: "This is not possible. If you don't heal your injuries, you will be in trouble if the disease is caused." She wondered, "I have finished the scientific examination, what book are you reading now?"
Princess Sheng'an sighed, "A book about travel."
When the emperor heard Yan Hui mentioned that Zhou Gu was going to travel after the scientific examination, he suddenly said, "There is no rush for this moment, I will take my time later."
Princess Sheng'an shook her head, but she didn't mention that Zhou Gu had a grudge against those books in order to understand Nanchu as soon as possible. If she hadn't forcibly ordered him, he wouldn't have even slept.
