After Xu Jian finished saying this, he fell silent.
The Holy Father also said nothing, sitting back on the big chair and meditating.
It has to be said that Xu Jian's suggestion was unexpected. It was something the Lord had never thought of before. He needed some time to think about it.
Of course Eunuch Cao also heard it. He didn't know why, but he just felt goosebumps on his body.
This thing is so surprising.
He was so surprised that he knew there was no one else in the palace, so he subconsciously turned his head and looked at the palace door.
The palace door was not fully closed, but opened a crack. The autumn sunlight filtered in through the crack, casting a long shadow on the floor tiles.
The light was dazzling and made the surroundings appear darker and darker.
Eunuch Cao's throat rolled up and down.
Now was actually not a good time to go in and wait, but when he looked inside again, he found that the Holy Lord's finger was on the tea cup.
well……
Eunuch Cao sighed secretly, pretended not to know anything, and arrived in front of the emperor.
He took the teapot and refilled the tea for the Holy Sage as usual, and then refilled it for Xu Jian.
As the tea was poured into the cup and his voice was clear, Eunuch Cao quietly looked at Xu Jian and then backed away.
Little throne...
Eunuch Cao could not say whether it was a good idea or not. He could only say that this was an extremely bold proposal.
Thinking about the Jinluan Palace, there was another chair placed under the throne. His Royal Highness was sitting there, looking down at the courtiers below...
Eunuch Cao's scalp was very numb.
Among the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, only Duke Fuguo dared to say such words in front of the emperor.
The Holy One still didn't speak.
After refilling a few cups of tea, he seemed to have just woken up and asked Xu Jian, "I'm curious, how did you think of this?"
After the words fell, the Holy Master saw a slightly embarrassed look on Xu Jian's face.
It seemed that this look should not appear at this time and in this situation, which made the Holy Spirit even more curious.
"There are no outsiders," the Holy Sage said, "You have already mentioned the Little Throne, why are there still things you can't say?"
Xu Jian smiled.
"There are indeed some reasons," Xu Jian paused, as if he was uncomfortable talking about this. He took a sip of tea, and then said, "I don't know where to start."
Seeing him like this, the Holy Spirit couldn't help but smile.
It was obviously not an enjoyable topic, and it was related to Shao Er's progress. He was originally very cautious and serious, but Xu Jian was made to laugh by Xu Jian's rare embarrassment.
yes.
The emotion of embarrassment is so rare for Xu Jian.
This young courtier had times before where he hesitated to speak, but even when he was accused of marriage, he was more calm and he was never embarrassed.
"Speak slowly," said the Holy Sage, "just say whatever comes to mind."
Xu Jian thought about it and said, "You know, I have been trying to get along with Mrs. Xu these days."
The Holy One raised his eyebrows.
Of course he knew that Mrs. Xu had reconciled with Liu Jing and returned to the Fuguo Palace with her daughter. He also heard a few words from An Yibo that Mrs. Xu had contributed to Xu Jian's marriage. The blood-related mother and son were unfamiliar, but
It can't be said that they ignored each other.
"I don't deny that the relationship between me and Liu Jing is indeed not good. I want to restrain myself, but it's really..."
"On that day, I also urged Liu Jing to go to Shuntian Mansion to arrange He Lishu."
"I think I'm doing a pretty good job, but I'm here by blood, and I know that some of my colleagues don't approve of what I'm doing, but it's just hard to say it in person."
"I have been thinking these days that I am too young and energetic. I won't say much about Liu Jing. I took Mrs. Xu back to the house on my own initiative. No matter what, she is my grandfather's daughter.
Please show mercy and let her and A-Ping return to your home, and I will take care of her and support her."
"It is said that only when you become a parent can you appreciate the friendship between parents. Indeed, someone told me that when I get married to the princess and have children, I will naturally know better how to get along with Mrs. Xu."
"No matter whether you walk fast or slow, if you are pushed to that position, you will make some progress."
Having said this, Xu Jian paused, glanced at His Majesty, and then said: "So, I have also thought about whether His Highness also lacks such an opportunity?"
The Holy Master's brows furrowed and then relaxed.
From Xu Jian's words, he suddenly recalled many old things.
"Growing up" is slow, but sometimes, growing up only lasts a moment.
They are all "opportunities".
Like himself, he only realized the awareness of "being a father" after Shao'er was born. Similarly, it was only after he was established as the crown prince that he could face it and shoulder his burden.
Obviously for countless years before that, he had never thought about ascending the throne and proclaiming himself emperor.
In other words, if the Empress Dowager had not pushed him to this position and not to find the truth for Empress Xia, he would not have persisted like this day after day.
Thinking of this, the Holy Master let out a long sigh.
"Yes," he said, "Shaoer has become a prince and has become a habit."
Shao'er has been the crown prince for as long as he can remember, and he has been the crown prince for more than ten years, until today.
I got so used to it that I lost awe and energy.
Xu Jian speculated on the emperor's thoughts and said: "He is already the crown prince. If he has not worked conscientiously among the brothers, won the support of his father and courtiers, and obtained the experience of registering, then he can only experience it.
Some other things can serve as an opportunity.
Standing in the Jinluan Palace, even if he is at the forefront of the courtiers, the people and things His Highness can see are completely different from when he sits next to you and looks down."
The Holy Father thought for a while.
I have to say that Xu Jian persuaded him.
He didn't lift Shao Er's grounding. He did have his own considerations in it. Shao Er needed to sharpen his character, but he also had his own attitude.
A small throne not only gives Shao'er an opportunity, but also allows those who are ready to take a break to think.
Such an undercurrent is not only unhelpful to the government, but will also lay the foundation for many disasters.
He had already experienced this with Li Mi and others.
"I'll think about it again," the Holy Emperor did not express his position immediately, "This is a serious matter."
Xu Jian naturally responded "Yes".
Outside, the imperial doctor arrived. Eunuch Cao received the Holy Master's nod and went out to invite the imperial doctor in.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! This is Judgment An.
The Holy One asked Eunuch Cao to set up a stool for Xu Jian.
Xu Jian exposed his right leg and put it on the stool. Eunuch Cao gave him a hand and frowned when he saw the state of his leg.
The Holy Father also came over and took a look.
Xu Jian's legs were covered in large and large bruises. The parts heated by the hand stove were a little warm, while the rest of the skin was cold. It was scary to look at and scary to touch.
Judge An raised his hand and pressed a few places, and saw Xu Jian frowning. Although he didn't complain of pain, he was probably very uncomfortable.
Also, can it be comfortable to treat old injuries?
I heard it took quite a while this morning, and it made me even more uncomfortable.
Judge An muttered to himself, and after careful examination, he said to the Holy Lord: "In my opinion, it is best for Duke Fu to rest for some more time."
Xu Jian said hurriedly: "I feel okay and can go to court. I looked like I was just trying to scare people, but in fact I have improved a lot. It was even more scary a while ago, and I even scared the princess at that time."
Judge An Yuan smiled sarcastically.
Isn't the princess just scared?
Otherwise, can I come to the Royal Pharmacy to ask for medicine?
The Holy One could not accurately judge the extent of Xu Jian's injuries, so he could only listen to the analysis of An's judge. But Xu Jian insisted, so he did not say much. He only told Xu Jian to pay more attention and not to show off.
Xu Jian achieved his goal today and stood up to leave when the time was almost up.
Eunuch Cao sent him out, arranged a chariot, replaced the hand stove, and had people take him out of the palace all the way.
Turning around and returning to the imperial court, as expected, the Holy Master frowned in deep thought.
Eunuch Cao didn't bother him and stood aside waiting for instructions.
The Holy Spirit thought for a long time before coming back to his senses and slowly shook his head.
"I can't bear to see his injured leg," the Holy Sage said, "Shao'er is really..."
Eunuch Cao thought for a while and said, "The Duke of Fu is worried a lot about the prince."
"He does understand Shao'er," the Holy Master smiled, "We are similar in age, but a few years older. He sees some things more clearly than I do."
From the beginning, he believed in Xu Jian's ability, and now it seems that he did not make a mistake.
At the same time, it was not until today that the Holy Father discovered that some of Xu Jian's ideas were beyond his expectation.
Or maybe this is the different thinking that occurs when you are in different positions.
Just like himself, he really never thought that Shaoer might have "lack of confidence" in court affairs.
"Wait until the afternoon," the Holy Emperor told Eunuch Cao, "and invite the three orphans to come into the palace. I will listen carefully to their thoughts."
Eunuch Cao agreed. At the same time, he could also see that the matter of the little throne would probably be settled.
As noon approached, the Thousand Steps Corridor, which had been busy all morning, gradually became idle, and some people began to pay attention to the situation in the palace.
I heard that Duke Fu Guo had left the palace, but no one knew what he said to the Holy Emperor in the royal study.
Some people thought it was nothing important, and some people inferred some meaning from summoning the three orphans to the palace. However, no one could think of the "little throne".
Even Sangu didn't think of it.
The three of them, all in their early 200s, stood in front of the emperor and looked at each other.
"Xu Jian mentioned it to me, and I want to hear your opinions."
The three of them discussed together for a quarter of an hour, and after carefully analyzing Xu Jian's suggestions, they all nodded.
Speaking of which, they all felt that they had done their best in the prince's guidance, but no one could tell what went wrong. The prince simply acted out of line.
Fu Guogong's suggestion can be regarded as giving a direction.
"If you don't destroy it, you won't establish it," Fang Shaofu said, "This is indeed an opportunity."
Wen Shaobao nodded.
If His Highness the Crown Prince still cannot understand how to be a good Crown Prince under such an opportunity, it can only be said that it is much better to understand it now than to understand it ten or twenty years later.
For the next five or six days, everything in the court was as usual.
Xu Jian still went to court every day, and in the morning there were courtiers who were eager to win over him, but they were somewhat concerned about Xu Jian.
Duke Fu Guo was a man who dared to move his uncomfortable right leg directly in the Jinluan Palace.
Is he really feeling uncomfortable and unable to stand?
impossible.
He is facing His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
The auxiliary princes have all gone to court, and it seems that the confinement of His Royal Highness will soon be lifted...
Everyone estimated and speculated, and on October 13th, they got an accurate message.
The Holy Emperor summoned the prince, who left the East Palace.
When the dust has settled, some people are happy and some are sad.
Li Shao is undoubtedly the happy one.
He sent Eunuch Guo away and asked Feng Nei to take care of him, bathe and change clothes, and tidy up decently.
"It's not bad," Li Shao adjusted the jade pendant around his waist, "I'm very curious about what Xu Jian said to his father."
To say that Xu Jian was useless, his father had lifted the ban, but to say that Xu Jian was useful, it only took a few days.
Waiter Feng said: "What can he say? He must speak for you."
Li Shao chuckled and strode out.
When we arrived outside the imperial study, Eunuch Cao was already waiting.
After taking Li Shao to the imperial court, Eunuch Cao served tea and then withdrew, still staying outside.
Li Shao looked at His Majesty, without hesitation, he knelt down respectfully and saluted: "I have met my father."
After saying that, he kowtowed a few more times: "My son, I have made you worry these days. I know that I have done something wrong. Not only you, I also want to apologize to the empress dowager and say hello to the imperial concubine.
.”
The Holy Spirit did not ask him to get up immediately, but asked: "What else have you practiced these days? Tell me about it."
"My son, I have tried hard to cultivate everything I can. Except for the part that I really can't do, everything else..." When Li Shao said this, his eyes lit up, he picked up the jade pendant at his waist and said, "I put this on."
.
This piece of jade was also left behind by my mother. The strips were old, so I learned to make one myself. My skills were a little rusty, but I thought it would be better to do it myself than someone else."
The Holy Emperor waved to him.
Li Shao stood up and walked to the side to let him take a closer look.
The Holy Master looked at the jade pendant for a while and sighed in his heart.
Yes, what Xu Jian said is not wrong at all.
Shao'er knew very well how to please him and the elders. He was indeed confident in this regard. He knew exactly what to say and what to do to satisfy his father, the emperor's grandmother and others.
He has mastered the essence of being a lovable junior, but obviously, Shaoer is far from enough to be the crown prince and to face important matters in the court.
"Yes, you should go see the Empress Dowager and the Imperial Concubine," the Holy Master said. "According to the original plan, you should continue to observe the government in the six departments. However, Xu Jian's leg injury has not healed, so he cannot follow you."
Li Shao suppressed the emotion in his eyes and said: "I can do it myself, I don't have to let Xu Jian follow."
"I'd better trust him. It's better to have him help you." The Holy Sage patted Li Shao's arm. "He came to the palace that day and talked to me about a lot of things. Some of his ideas are very good."
Li Shao asked further: "What did he say?"
"When you go to court tomorrow, you don't have to line up with the courtiers. You should come from the East Palace earlier and walk with me." The Holy Master said.
Li Shao frowned: "I don't understand."
"I have asked someone to place a small throne for you under the throne," the Holy Sage said, "You can sit there."
Li Shao's eyelids twitched twice.
Is it good or bad?
He couldn't tell clearly for a while.
But his heart was beating fast, and he couldn't contain his excitement at the thought of where he would be sitting.
