At the capital palace, Li Xin smiled faintly: "Uncle Lu, don't worry, I said this matter is related to the matters that the emperors are concerned about!"
Prince Lu frowned and said, "I'm talking about the princess of Shura Kingdom! I heard that the emperor wants to make that princess a concubine? Is it true?"
Prince Yu took a sip of wine and nodded: "Yes, yes, Huang'er is really married to this princess? I heard they have a child?"
Li Li nodded and said: "It is true that there is such a thing, but the two imperial uncles, I want to make Chu Yiqing my concubine because..."
"No matter what the reason is, as long as they are the remnants of the Shura Kingdom, they cannot stay! Have you forgotten the hardships of your father? It was so hard to build the country, how can you allow the remnants of the previous dynasty to give birth to the blood of our Li Kingdom's royal family! Your Majesty, this matter is yours
Why don't you stop it? You want to make that woman a concubine and recognize her as the royal wife, you..." Prince Lu immediately interrupted Li Xin's words and shouted in a loud voice. [
"Lao Lu, Lao Lu, don't worry. Although she is a remnant of the Shura Kingdom, it is certain that she cannot stay. However, this cooking skill must be kept. How about you hand her over to me? I will take her up the mountain.
The guardian will not let her come out again to harm our country!" Prince Yu held the wine bottle in his arms, squinted his drunken eyes, and leaned comfortably on the soft couch and said.
Li Li frowned and said: "Two imperial uncles, Chu Yiqing cannot kill them!"
"Can't she be killed? Why can't she be killed? Could it be that she has three heads and six arms? Oh, Your Majesty, please don't tell us that you are afraid of her?" Prince Lu immediately asked with his eyes widened.
Li Li was immediately embarrassed. He was always a face-saving person, but he had already ignored his own face when he went to Chu Han this time. Who knew that the matter did not work out, and he was left with a bruised nose and a swollen face. Now he was snatched away by Prince Lu, and gradually
He could not hold back his breath and said coldly: "Now that she is Huang'er's wife, not to mention she has given birth to blood for the royal family, and she has no intention of rebellion, why should we cause more trouble? As long as we recognize her identity
, the remnants of the Shura Kingdom will naturally surrender to our Li Kingdom, so why should we go to war when something can be solved without spending a single soldier?"
"No, our Li Kingdom has been established for decades, and now it has a solid foundation. Are we still afraid of a little princess of the Shura Kingdom? Besides, is the identity of this princess confirmed? It has been fifty years since the Shura Kingdom was destroyed. That princess
How can you be so young?" Prince Lu had a firm attitude.
"She is the princess's daughter, but she is indeed of royal blood, and she is the only royal bloodline left in the Shura Kingdom, so all the remaining people in the Shura Kingdom obey her orders!" Li Li explained tiredly.
"Your Majesty, it shows that you are really old. You would never have said such words before!" Prince Lu shook his head and said, "I think how high-spirited the Emperor was back then, with no room for even a grain of sand in his eyes, but now he is
We can even accommodate a princess from the previous dynasty!" Prince Lu looked at Li Li and shook his head.
Li Li felt even more depressed and could only say with a cold face: "Uncle Lu, I also think about the overall situation. Data Martial God! In the past few years since Uncle Lu has been away from the palace, I don't know how many things have happened in the court, from the chaos of the five major families to the Luo Dynasty.
State spies, and then from the oil shortage to the invasion of Luo and Rao, the Li State has been in turmoil over the past few years, with constant external and internal troubles, and now there are the Luo State white porcelain incident and the former princess incident, I am really exhausted mentally and physically! "
Prince Lu slowly rolled his eyes: "You are old and you still don't admit it. How could you have so many things when you were young?"
Li Li was so depressed that he just wanted to vomit blood, but he couldn't change his mind, so he had to sit aside with a cold face, too lazy to explain to Prince Lu.
"Lao Lu, Lao Lu, the emperor is the emperor after all. You should pay attention to the order of hierarchy when you speak! You, Lao Lu, have not changed after so many years. Your Majesty, you are the honor of the emperor. I have a lot of people. Don't talk to a bad old man.
Don’t care!” Prince Yu narrowed his eyes and said with a smile while chewing happily.
Li Li sighed, these two old monsters have always been like this, one beats the stick and the other gives the dates to eat. When he was young, he suffered a lot from these two people, just because they grew up together, and they were the powerful right-hand men when they came to the throne.
, one of them likes to have fun, the other likes to eat, and has no ambitions for the throne at all, so Li Li would tolerate the two of them like this.
The Empress Dowager also took the opportunity to say: "I can understand the mood of the two imperial uncles. Chu Yiqing has indeed contributed to the country. Previously, the five major families were in chaos, and it was Chu Yiqing who came up with this sweet potato method to stabilize the market."
Involved in the government affairs, the oil shortage, and even went to the battlefield with Huang'er... Regardless of the child's identity, she has made great contributions to Li Guo. Besides, you have never seen that child A Bao, who is so smart.
He is very smart and very lovable. The Ai family just met him once, and they felt so cherished in their hearts that they couldn't let him go!"
As soon as she mentioned Abao, the Empress Dowager's love was beyond words, and her expression became kind.
The two princes were polite to Li Li, but they did not dare to act arrogantly towards the empress dowager. Prince Nalu restrained himself and said: "Even if it is a meritorious service to the court, Chu Yiqing is the princess of the previous dynasty after all. That child... then
Who does the child look like? But like Huang'er? Huang'er looks quite lovable, but he has been mistreated by your father, and his personality is not lovable at all!"
Li Li twitched the corners of his mouth in depression again, not wanting to respond, lest he get angrier by talking more.
"The appearance is quite similar to Huang'er's when he was a child, but his temperament is completely different. Maybe it's because he grew up outside the palace. He doesn't have so many rules, is not formal, and is kind to everyone. Moreover, he is a ghost and elf. The emperor is the first
The first time I saw him, I was teased by him once. Is he the emperor?" the Queen Mother asked with a smile.
Li Li nodded dully.
Looking at Li Li's dull look, Prince Lu raised his eyebrows with interest. He had a rough personality and didn't like the rules in the palace. That's why he left the palace these few years and lived in the mountains and forests. Now he heard that such a smart child from the royal family, then
He became playful, but when he thought about the overall situation, he still said: "No matter what, I can't keep the princess from the previous dynasty, but I can keep that child!" [
Li Li said in a muffled voice: "Uncle Lu, that child also has the blood of the Shura Kingdom's royal family! Why doesn't the emperor wipe out the roots?"
Seeing that Li Li and Prince Lu were having a heated argument, Prince Nayu quickly straightened himself up, cheered up and said, "This is not possible. After all, he is our great-grandson, so we cannot kill him!"
"Yes, yes, the Ai family feels very sorry for that child. We can't kill him, we can't kill him!" the Empress Dowager also said quickly.
"But that witch can't be kept. Not only is she the former princess, but she also confuses Huang'er. Now she doesn't even want the throne!" Prince Lu said again, "If that kid Huang'er takes the throne, he must be a wise king. But now he is
I don’t even want the throne anymore, huh, I don’t know how the emperor teaches his children!”
Li was so depressed that he almost suffered internal injuries, so he could only say: "Uncle Lu, I am not disappointed with him, so I want to make Chu Yiqing my concubine. As long as the royal family recognizes Chu Yiqing's identity, Huang'er will naturally
return!"
"The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. Back then, you were not the one who doted on Concubine Qing. If we hadn't helped you, would you have ascended to the throne so smoothly? This Huang'er made the same mistake as you. When you met this special concubine,
What a charming witch!" Prince Lu said bitterly.
He straightened his face and said suddenly: "Uncle Lu, although you are my uncle, I am the emperor. Isn't it disrespectful to me when Uncle Lu speaks like this?"
Prince Lu was stunned for a moment, and his fiery temper suddenly rose, and he shouted loudly: "You kid are still trying to act like an emperor with me? Aren't we two old guys doing it for the inheritance of our ancestors?"
Prince Yu quickly grabbed Prince Lu and said: "Old Lutou, what you are doing is wrong. I am a junior, but I am also the emperor. You are so disrespectful to the emperor. Are you still reasonable? Apologize to the emperor quickly!"
Although Prince Yu didn't speak much, it could be seen that Prince Nalu still listened to Prince Yu's words. Now he muttered. Although he was still unconvinced, at least he stopped arguing.
"Two imperial uncles, I have already decided to enthrone Chu Yiqing as a concubine. It would be helpful for the two imperial uncles to talk more. I can only say that I am doing this entirely for the sake of Li Guojiangshan, and asking the two emperors to stand on the throne.
Think about it for me from my standpoint!" Li said in a deep voice.
Prince Lu said resolutely: "No, I don't agree. Old Yutou, do you agree?"
Prince Yu squinted his eyes, tilted his head, picked his teeth with a toothpick, and said after a long time: "I would like to meet Chu Yiqing. Generally speaking, I am really a little uncomfortable with people who are so good at cooking.
I’m willing to kill him like this!”
Prince Lu said angrily: "Old Yutou, isn't this the time to just focus on eating?"
Prince Yu's eyes suddenly sparkled with light, completely different from the sluggish and chaotic look just now, "Old Lutou, when did I just eat? I just heard the emperor and the empress dowager say so many words, aren't you curious?
Is that so? You should also know what the emperor is like. When in his life has he ever tolerated anyone in his heart? But this time he spoke to Chu Yiqing, the former princess, and that A Bao and Lao Lutou. Don’t you think so?
Surely it's not that simple? The emperor is right. We have stayed outside the palace for too long, and we may not understand the current situation. In this case, we don't rush to make a judgment. We two old guys are idle anyway.
If you have nothing to do, why not go for a walk in Chuhan? I heard that Chuhan is not as good as before. There are all kinds of good things. In winter, there are also big watermelons. Hehe, Lao Lutou, think about it, sitting in the ice and snow
, how does it feel to break open an ice hole for fishing and eat watermelon at the same time?"
Prince Lu couldn't help but shudder when he thought about it.
"That's right, Uncle Yuhuang. In the past two years and all year round, the fresh vegetables and fruits that I have sent to the mountains are all shipped from Chuhan, especially the cherry tomatoes. Uncle Yuhuang doesn't like them the most.
Food? That thing is very expensive. It cost only five taels of silver each before. Not only was it expensive, but it was also scarce in quantity. I was reluctant to eat it, so I gave it all to the two imperial uncles! Now Chu Han is a good place, so where to eat?
It's famous all over the world, why don't you two emperor uncles go there for a walk and learn about the country's conditions, so that you two emperor uncles can understand me!" Li hurriedly took the opportunity to say.
Prince Yu narrowed his eyes excitedly again and asked: "Besides the food you have eaten these past few days, are there any other rare food?"
Li quickly said: "There are many more. It's summer right now, and it's the time to have barbecue. A group of people are gathered around, eating barbecue, drinking beer, and there are people singing next to them. It's interesting just thinking about it.
Woolen cloth!"
"Barbecue? I've eaten too much barbecue. What's delicious?" Prince Yu shook his head. He was not interested in barbecue, but was interested in the beer. "Beer, but the two bottles you sent last time
?It smells weird, but it tastes different, especially with ice cubes, it tastes really good!"
Li quickly said: "Yes, yes, that kind of wine is also made by Chu Yiqing. In summer, it is most comfortable to drink with ice cubes! Yes, yes, yes, Chu Han seems to have some ice cream, ice cream, etc.
It’s always the most refreshing to go there when the weather is hot! Nowadays, these things are also available in the capital, but the taste is still not as good as Chu Han’s tunnel! Prince Lu, Chu Han also has a Yunding, which is said to be full of rare things. How about you?
Go and take a look?"
Prince Lu snorted coldly, "Playing with things makes you lose your mind!" But his eyes were clearly brightening.[
After the two princes left, the Empress Dowager said worriedly: "Prince Lu has a bad temper. He hated the remnants of the Shura Kingdom the most back then. Coupled with Huang'er's incident, he may have long believed that Chu Yiqing was the same as those back then.
The Qing concubines are generally witches who specialize in charming men. If you trick them into going to Chu Han, will they cause any trouble?"
He said in a stern voice: "Although Prince Lu has a bad temper, he is dedicated to this country, just as he supported my succession back then. He is the most public-private person among these princes. I believe that if he can see the situation clearly, he will definitely succeed.
Will make the same decision as me, Mad Emperor's Dream, Rebel against the Evil Emperor! What I'm worried about now is Prince Yu. Even though Prince Yu usually only cares about eating and doesn't mind other people's business, he has the deepest scheming. After all, Chu Yiqing
She is the princess of the former dynasty, and I am afraid that Prince Yu will not be able to tolerate her!"
"Chu Yiqing is the princess of the previous dynasty, and she has this embarrassing status here. If the emperor wants to make her the crown prince's concubine, the two old princes will definitely not agree! In this case, why not postpone the canonization!
"The Queen Mother said.
Li frowned and said in a low voice: "There is no time to wait. Seeing that the tribute date has come, only Chu Yiqing can solve the problem of white porcelain. If I don't force them, there will be another dispute between Luo Kingdom and Li Kingdom. This
…”
Li was in a dilemma when he saw Xiao Fuzi walking in quickly with a letter in his hand. He handed it over respectfully and said, "Your Majesty, this is the letter sent by the Fifth Prince!"
Li Yi was startled and said angrily: "Why did he ask someone to send a letter? Are you still angry with me?"
Xiao Fuzi held the letter high with both hands, lowered his head tightly, and did not dare to say a word.
After a long time, Li finally suppressed his anger, took the letter over with a swipe, turned around and sat on the dragon chair and opened it.
After just reading two lines, Li's brows relaxed and his eyes slowly widened. By the time he finished reading the letter, Li was already smiling.
"Your Majesty, is there any good news? Your Majesty, has he agreed to come back?" Xiao Fuzi quickly asked cautiously.
Li restrained his smile again and said, "When Master Xuan Yang comes to the palace, he says that I have something important to do!"
Xiao Fuzi responded quickly.
In the imperial study room, Yang Xin was filled with joy after reading the letter. He raised his eyes and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the prince is just soft-spoken and soft-hearted. You see, this has not solved the problem of Bai Porcelain. The emperor can finally let go of his worries."
Got it!"
Li lazily raised his eyebrows and said with an expression on his face: "This is just a delaying strategy of the two of them, just because they don't want me to issue an order! This is fine, anyway, Prince Lu and Prince Yu are blocking it.
, I’m afraid the matter of canonization will have to be delayed!”
Yang Xin hurriedly said: "In this way, the emperor and the prince will not have a head-on conflict. It is better to turn the violence into peace!"
Li frowned coldly, "I'm not afraid of that boy, I just don't want to disobey the two imperial uncles!"
"Yes, yes, the emperor is right!" Yang Xin responded quickly.
Li slowly raised his lips.
At this moment, two gorgeously decorated carriages drove out of the imperial city and headed towards Chu Han.
On the carriage, Prince Lu frowned and said, "Old Yutou, do you think we can really stop the emperor from issuing an edict if we go there?"
Prince Yu leaned lazily on the thick quilt, with all his flesh squeezed together, like a squatting Maitreya Buddha. He twitched the corners of his lips and narrowed his eyes, "I just want to taste that ice cream."
The taste of beer, the emperor gave me two bottles last time, but it wasn’t enough to quench my thirst!”
Prince Lu quickly said: "Old Yutou, I'm telling you something serious!"
"I'm serious about what I said!" Prince Yu opened his squinted eyes with all his strength: "The emperor wants to decree the canonization, just because Chu Yiqing is useful. If it is no longer useful, do you think the emperor will still tolerate this former man?
To the princess?"
Prince Lu was startled, suddenly slapped his thigh and said with a smile: "Yes, yes, yes, we want to see what this Chu Yiqing is capable of. I don't believe it yet. We two old men can't beat her!"
Prince Yu narrowed his eyes and smashed his mouth, "There is no taste in my mouth. Where is the bottle of wine I hid before leaving?"
Chu Han, Chu Yiqing always feels sleepy these days, and the sight of greasy food makes her nauseous. On this day, while eating, Chu Yiqing felt nauseated again. He touched his chest and felt uncomfortable when he saw Jin Yu suddenly put down his chopsticks.
Asked: "Sister, are you pregnant?"
Chu Yiqing was stunned: "What's there?"
Jin Yu glanced at Li Huang, who was inexplicable, and said, "Look at you, it's not your first time being a bad boy. I'm asking you, are you happy?"
Chu Yiqing was stunned. She came straight through and was giving birth to her baby as soon as she came here. How did she know about these symptoms of pregnancy? But thinking about it, she was really sleepy and lazy these days, as if she hadn't been pregnant for a long time.
Practicing...
"Lizi, hurry up and ask Doctor Xu to come to the Horror Ghost Ship!" Jin Yu saw Chu Yiqing being confused and made the decision on his own.
"I've seen Yiqing look so miserable these days, looks like this!" Mrs. Huangfu also thought of this, and couldn't help but light up her face, "I think it's been some time since you guys got married, it's time
Got it!"
Abao opened his eyes wide and asked, "Mom, what do you have?"
Chu Yiqing glanced at Li Huang, who was also looking happy, and said in a low voice: "We're not sure yet. We'll wait until Dr. Xu comes!"
"You can't go wrong!" Mrs. Huangfu said happily, and quickly picked up several chopstick dishes and put them in Chu Yiqing's bowl, "Eat more, eat more!"
Chu Yiqing said embarrassedly: "Mom, I don't know if this is true, you are too anxious!"
"It must be!" Mrs. Huangfu said firmly.
When Dr. Xu heard that Chu Yiqing was ill, he immediately put down what he was talking about and rushed over. He carefully checked Chu Yiqing's pulse. He immediately got up and knelt in front of Li Huang and said, "Congratulations to the prince, congratulations to the prince. Madam is indeed
I'm so happy, it's been two months!"
After the good news was confirmed, Li Huang immediately stepped forward and hugged Chu Yiqing tightly, causing Jin Yu to quickly shout: "Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, we are still here!"
Li Huang didn't care about her. After hugging Chu Yiqing, he picked up A Bao and rubbed his face against A Bao's chest for a few times, making A Bao giggle and said, "A Bao, you are about to have a younger brother.
Are you happy?"
Abao said happily: "It turns out that mother has a little brother! It's great!"
Chu Yiqing said coquettishly: "How do you know it's a boy? I like girls!"
Li Huang held A Bao with one hand and held her hand with the other, "Boy or girl, I like them all, as long as they are born to you!"
"Mom, it's best to have one brother and one sister, so no one has to fight!" Abao shouted loudly.
Chu Yiqing whispered: "You two think well!"
Mrs. Huangfu had already gone to burn incense for Jin Yu's father. While lighting the incense, she muttered: "His father, once Qing is here, our family will have more people. Our family is getting more and more prosperous.
Please bless Yiqing in heaven!"
Jin Yu also stepped forward, offered Huangfu Yuan a stick of incense and said, "Father, you must listen to my mother's request. My daughter has never begged you before, so I am begging you this time!"
Chu Yiqing looked at the two of them and felt moved in his heart. A Bao was not blessed when he was born. This time it was different. The child was not born yet, but so many people were blessing him!
"Huang, our child, whether boy or girl, will be named Blessing. I hope he is born with people's blessings!" Chu Yiqing said in a low voice.
Li Huang's heart tightened and he held Chu Yiqing's hand tightly, "Don't worry, with me by your side this time, I will definitely not let you and our blessings be harmed at all!"
