"Do you think the eldest son should be a legitimate eldest son, or a talented and benevolent second prince?" Emperor Rende's majestic voice penetrated Tian Minyan's eardrums like a shot.
Tian Minyan's heart skipped a beat. It was a cold day, but she felt that her back was sweaty and very uncomfortable.
"I don't know." She lowered her head and spit out something from her throat.
Emperor Rende didn't say a word. Tian Minyan thought he was going to get angry, and her body was shaking slightly. There was a thin layer of snow under her knees, and the biting chill seeped into her bones through her clothes, like an ice cellar.
"Get up and talk first. You're young, don't kneel in the cold in the snow." After a long time, Emperor Rende said.
Tian Minyan let out a breath and stood up staggeringly, her head slightly lowered, trembling.
"I just want to hear a different voice, but it's so difficult."
After Tian Minyan heard this, her eyebrows moved. There was a bit of melancholy in these words, but she did not dare to take it lightly. The emperor's technique was far beyond her ability to understand.
She thought for a while, pursed her lips and said: "The emperor must have his own plan in mind regarding who he will appoint as the crown prince. I believe that the person the emperor appoints must be kind-hearted and will lead the Great Southern Kingdom to a more prosperous and prosperous era.
It will also allow the people to live and work in peace and contentment.”
"If the emperor asks his ministers who is more suitable to be the prince, the legitimate son or the concubine, it doesn't actually matter. Your Majesty, in fact, in the hearts of the people, it doesn't matter who becomes the emperor. What matters is whether the emperor will let them be in power.
We have food to eat, clothing to wear, and a place to live and work in peace and contentment. The common people only want a small place."
"So, even if that person is not a prince, as long as he can make the common people live a good life, he can be a prince?" Emperor Rende narrowed his eyes with a sharp light in his eyes: "Mr. Huimin, you are so big.
courage."
Tian Minyan's heart skipped a beat, and she was about to kneel down: "I have no status, I hope your Majesty will forgive you."
"That's it, don't just kneel down." Emperor Rende waved his hands impatiently and said, "As you said, how do people think that someone can make them live a happy life?"
"Your Majesty, the voices of the common people never lie. The only ones who lie are officials." Tian Minyan wiped the sweat from her forehead and said thoughtfully: "The common people have their own concerns about who has done what. Only when they are the most unrestrained
When you speak, what you say is the truest thing from your heart.”
Emperor Rende walked forward slowly with his hands behind his back and said: "There is only one throne, and everyone wants to sit on it. I have so many sons, and they all want to compete for it. I really don't want to see them fighting each other.
They are all my flesh and blood."
Tian Minyan sneered in her heart, if you couldn't keep your mind, how could there be so many princes and princesses born?
"As the saying goes, if a general achieves great success and his bones are withered, he must sit on the throne above. In fact, it is the same truth. If the emperor wants to understand it, he will also minimize the damage." Tian Minyan said calmly: "Your Majesty, I don't know which one I have.
The prince is more talented and virtuous, but he only knows one thing: if you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight."
Emperor Rende turned around with his eyes bright and said, "What did you say?"
"If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight."
"Well, if you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight." Emperor Rende shook his hand and said, "Huimin County Lord, you are indeed worthy of the title Huimin, good!"
Tian Minyan snorted, feeling a little ashamed. In fact, she also plagiarized this in modern times, cough cough.
Emperor Rende repeated the words several times, nodding frequently as if he was very satisfied with these eight words.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, good luck." Suddenly a voice of surprise sounded from the corner ahead.
Tian Minyan looked over and saw a beauty in palace attire. It was a cold day, but she was wearing a tulle dress. She wore a jingle as she walked around. The pink skirt brought out a hint of color, making her charming.
"Yuan'er, please give your regards to the Emperor. May the Emperor be blessed with peace and prosperity." The beauty walked up to him, bowed her knees and saluted, her charming red and phoenix eyes kept winking at Emperor Rende, Tian Minyan shivered at the sight.
"Concubine Zhao, it's you." Emperor Rende seemed a little happy, it was his new favorite concubine.
Tian Minyan didn't know her status, so she had to kneel down and salute, calling the empress good luck.
"Your Majesty, I am not just my concubine. I have learned a new song and want to play it to the Emperor." Concubine Zhao gave another flirtatious look and leaned towards him, causing Tian Minyan to have goosebumps again.
pimple.
Emperor Rende seemed a little uncomfortable, so he said to Gao Bao: "Send Lord Huimin out of the palace." After that, he took Concubine Zhao and left.
Tian Minyan hurriedly saluted the emperor's back again, and waited until the emperor had gone away before following Gao Bao out of the imperial garden.
"Eunuch Gao, please go back now. Your Majesty needs your father-in-law to take care of you. Just send a young father-in-law to see me off." Tian Minyan said with a smile.
"It doesn't matter. Your Majesty is going to Zhao Concubine's palace to have a rest. The Sa family will give Mr. Huimin a ride." Gao Bao waved his fly whisk and said, "Speaking of which, the Sa family hasn't thanked Mr. Huimin for the knee pads. It's very important.
Fit and comfortable.”
"It's just a small kneepad. It's not worth a few bucks. As long as Eunuch Gao doesn't mind it, it's fine." Tian Minyan said with a smile.
Gao Bao was very happy after hearing this. He was a popular person around the emperor. Even the queen and his wife would fawn over him, let alone the nobles next to him. They all gave him gold, silver, silk and jewelry, hoping that he would help the emperor.
Say something nice to him.
But Tian Minyan also gave a gift, but what he gave was a pair of knee pads. When he was young, he knelt a lot, and he had old cold legs. Now that he is older, it becomes more uncomfortable in winter. With these knee pads, they are soft, even when he kneels,
I don't feel uncomfortable either.
"The Sa family has lived for most of their lives, and they have been with the emperor since they were ten years old. What good things have they never seen or eaten? The knee pads given by Huimin County Lord are comparable to gold and silver jewelry." Gao Bao said with some pride, seeing how calm she looked.
He smiled and felt more comfortable, and said: "Huimin County Lord, don't worry too much. Marriage is not just a gift, and the emperor doesn't want to see a grudge couple, right?"
Tian Minyan's heart moved, she bit her lip, then she bowed her knees to Gao Bao and said, "Please, Eunuch Gao, say a few good words for me."
"Oh, what kind of courtesy is this? Don't worry, even if the Sa family doesn't talk about it, there is still a prince." Gao Bao helped her up and teased with a smile.
Tian Minyan blushed, said something angry, and the two of them walked towards the palace gate.
At the far end, a man and a woman stood there, looking at the interaction between Tian Minyan and Eunuch Gao, with very ugly faces.
"Brother Jin, this Tian Minyan even fawns over Eunuch Gao. She has always had a grudge against our family. What if Eunuch Gao puts some eye drops in front of the emperor?" Qiu Ningyan said with a sinister look on her face.
The eldest prince's face darkened, his lips pursed tightly, and he said: "Those who cannot be used by me and block my way will always have the same fate." After that, he walked away with a flick of his sleeves.
Qiu Ningyan looked at Tian Minyan's retreating back and smiled coldly. If it weren't for Tian Minyan, her children would have been called mother.
The child, her poor son, she will definitely avenge him, let's see how good she can be.
