Princess Sun looked at her quietly, her eyes flushed, "Don't say that, I feel uncomfortable."
"Why?" Yuan Qingling asked.
Princess Sun smiled bitterly, "How do I know? It's just that one day your second brother suddenly said that in the future, you must not be treated like before, and you must abide by the etiquette of a monarch and his ministers. Otherwise, once the fifth child ascends the throne, he may be afraid of us having a relationship."
thoughts, and then..."
"Then they will kill each other?" Yuan Qing Ling was really angry, "That's how you look at the fifth brother? What the second brother said is really hard to complain about. Are you worried that he has other thoughts and cares about the throne?
He really thinks highly of himself."
Princess Sun looked at him blankly, "What you said... is really true. I thought what he said was a bit ridiculous. He has done nothing else in his life except eating. Who would suspect that he cares about the throne? Now he is in Honglu.
When a temple official works, he usually relies on the people under his command to do things. He himself is free all day long, but he just has a sinecure."
"Why did he say that suddenly?" Yuan Qingling asked.
Before Princess Sun could answer, she heard that Yuan Yongyi and Ah Si were here. After a while, Aunt Fu'er led the sisters in. Yuan Yongyi came in a hurry, her makeup was not repaired, and her clothes were still stained by her sister's stains.
.
Ah Si had already made it clear to her. She knew that Lao Qi had said such words to the prince, and she was angry in her heart, so she hurried over. As soon as she sat down, she didn't ask why and said, "Lao Qi has been confused recently.
I'm crazy. Ever since I had a few drinks with the Crown Prince, I have been worrying about gains and losses. I have always said that I should avoid the Crown Prince's sharp edge and be more cautious in the future. I don't even care about the friendship between brothers."
When Yuan Yongyi said this, Princess Sun also let out a sigh, "Lao Qi also had wine with the Crown Prince? Your second brother has been drinking with the Crown Prince recently, and he is so arrogant when he comes back from drinking. Could it be that the Crown Prince told them
What?"
Prince Pingnan? Yuan Qingling frowned. In fact, when he met Prince Pingnan for the first time, he always felt that he was a bit gloomy. Although he acted humble and polite, he did not make people feel friendly.
Ordinarily, in the fiefdom, Prince Pingnan has such a temper, and most of the things are taken care of by the prince. He should have shown particularly strong communication skills, but after coming to the capital, there were not many activities, and he only visited privately.
Lao Qi and his second brother were drinking. Although I don’t know what they said to them, they changed their attitudes after drinking. This really made people suspicious.
The sisters-in-law and others talked for a while, and when it was getting dark, Yuan Qingling returned.
After returning home, he told Yu Wenhao, and Yu Wenhao simply invited the two of them to come over to the house, and also called King Huai, because he didn't know if Prince Pingnan had ever approached King Huai. Yu Wenhao thought that if there was a rift between the brothers,
You should sit down and talk carefully and explain clearly.
King Huai was accompanied by Rong Yue. The couple arrived first. After asking, they found that Prince Pingnan had also invited King Huai, but Rong Yue was careful. Drinking was fine, but it had to be at Prince Huai's palace.
Rong Yue paid close attention to her husband. Her husband was not in good health. If he went out and drank too much without restraint, he would be harmed. With this family motto, Prince Pingnan would not come either. Therefore, Prince Huai
He has never had any personal contact with Prince Pingnan.
The four brothers were drinking in the side hall. Yu Wenhao went straight to the point. He first looked at Sun Wang and apologized, "Second brother, last time I came to see you, you probably wanted to keep me for dinner, but at that time I was in a hurry and didn't care.
How you feel, don’t be angry with me, I’ll give you a toast and this matter will be over, okay?”
King Sun slowly picked up the wine glass and glared at King Qi fiercely, what a big mouth!
He drank the glass of wine, but seemed a little reserved.
Yu Wenhao glanced at them. Except for Lao Liu, who looked at ease, the other two seemed to have their own concerns. Yu Wenhao simply said: "Okay, tell me if you have any misunderstandings. Second brother, Lao Qi, why did you suddenly
Are you separated from me?"
"It's nothing, don't listen to Lao Qi's nonsense!" Sun Wang hurriedly explained. After explaining, he looked back and said, "Why haven't you served the food yet?"
"Finish it first, and then serve the dishes. Tonight, Lao Yuan specially asked Grandma Xi to cook in person and prepare some exquisite side dishes for you. You can eat them after you finish speaking. Before you finish speaking, you will continue to pour wine," Yu Wenhao said.
.
King Sun put down his wine glass and looked at him, "Second brother, I'm not feuding with you. I just feel that sometimes the rules still have to be observed. If you don't observe them now, why don't you wait until you ascend the throne to abide by them?"
Yu Wenhao was extremely angry, "What rules? What about ascending the throne? Now that my father is in his prime, there is a chance that I will die before him."
"What are you talking nonsense about?" Sun Wang slapped him in vain and glared at him, "Don't you know it's bad luck? You're talking nonsense."
Yu Wenhao dodged, "Isn't it true? Doesn't the boss die earlier than my father? You are so angry with me, I am angry every day, how long can I live?"
After breathing some air, the brothers were able to talk properly.
Only then did Yu Wenhao learn that King Pingnan had invited them to go out for drinks several times, and two or three times on the same day. Even if he invited King Sun first and later with Lao Qi, they all said the same thing.
He said that now there are people arranged by the prince in his palace, and their every word and deed in the palace will be reported to the prince every day.
Moreover, Prince Pingnan cited examples of imperial disputes in the past dynasties. Only at the beginning, with the etiquette of monarchs and ministers, can people clear up their doubts, and let them not be too sharp, and leave the business to the people below.
He would do some unimportant things himself, so King Qi used to be considered a relatively capable person in Jingzhao Mansion, but suddenly now he only paid attention to some small things and ran away several times for Di Zhongliang.
Yu Wenhao was angry when he heard this, "You believe it when he says that?"
King Qi murmured: "I drank too much, and I said these words several times, which always makes people feel upset. I am not as good as when I was alone. Without the princess, I have sisters. I have to think about them."
one time."
King Sun thought the same way. Anyway, he had no intention of becoming emperor. Even if people knew that he was doing nothing, it would not matter, he would just go about his day.
"In addition to telling you this, what else do I want to tell you? Is there anything I ask you to do?" Yu Wenhao asked.
King Sun and King Qi said in unison: "Resign!"
Yu Wenhao and King Huai looked at each other, both looking a little surprised.
Resign?
Yu Wenhao was puzzled. He had some doubts about Prince Pingnan at first, but he was not sure why he asked them to resign. Lao Qi was the Prime Minister of Jingzhao Mansion. Once he resigned, he would either
When people are promoted in Jingzhao Mansion, the staff will make other arrangements.
He has the final say in the promotion of people in Jingzhao Mansion. Is there anything fishy with the staff?
As for Honglu Temple, it is responsible for major affairs such as diplomacy, foreign guests, and national sacrifices...
Yu Wenhao felt that a net was slowly opening, and he suddenly became excited and immediately sent someone out.
