"Oh." Yun said softly, without saying much, but the expression on his face changed.
Min'er was startled when she saw her father's expression. She did not hear what the eunuch said to her father, but she felt that her father's expression changed instantly. She was slightly surprised, but more of it seemed to be excitement.
This kind of expression is not unfamiliar to her. Whenever her father's plan succeeds, he will show such an expression. According to her maid, she will also show the same expression in similar situations. Fourth Aunt Yunzhi once said with a smile
: "As expected of third brother's biological daughter, that expression really looks like she was carved from the same mold."
"Dad, what happened?" Wen Qi didn't notice that his father's expression was strange, and he just asked casually.
"It was Zhu Fangyuan, the king of North Korea, who sent an envoy to the Ming Dynasty. They have arrived at the Shanghai Shipping Department." Yun came back to his senses and said.
"The monarch of North Korea really sent an envoy?" Wen Yuan said immediately, with a look of surprise in his voice. He did not completely believe what his father just said. Zhu Fangyuan's illness may not have been designed by Zhu Fangyuan. The so-called cronies of Zhu who secretly came to the capital said
Perhaps they were all lies, and this matter might have been a lie from beginning to end. But the arrival of this North Korean envoy destroyed most of his ideas. It was only the end of February, and the envoy who congratulated the New Year had only left the capital for more than a month.
, even if North Korea is allowed to pay tribute twice a year, it will never pay tribute again now. It is clear that he has something to request from the Ming Dynasty. In his heart, he can only hope that the envoy's request is not to change the crown prince.
"Is North Korea's Zhu Bangyuan going to change his name to the crown prince?" Wen Qi said: "They can't wait so hard. It's only been two months since the New Year! It's only been less than a year since news of Zhu Fangyuan's illness came out."
"Maybe Zhu Fangyuan can't wait any longer." Wen Yin said with a very calm expression.
"Wenqi, Wenyin, you can't call the king of Korea by his first name. The king of Korea is equal to a prince, and his status is the same as yours in the future. As your father, you treat him as an equal, so you are his juniors, so you should respect him more.
"Especially you Wenqi, you just called the king of Korea by his first name, and as a father you didn't care at that time. You must pay attention to it later." Yunque first scolded the two of them.
Wen Qi and Wen Yin immediately bowed their heads and admitted their mistakes. What Yun said was very correct, and they did not dare to violate it. Seeing their two sons bowing their heads and admitting their mistakes, Yun nodded, and then continued: "The envoy sent by North Korea may not necessarily be a request to depose the crown prince. You also
You must not make preconceptions, otherwise you may make a fool of yourself when the North Korean envoy makes the request."
"Yes, father." Wen Qi immediately agreed. But Wen Yin thought for a while and suddenly said: "What does father mean, can we still see the North Korean envoy?"
"Father?" Upon hearing this, Wen Yuan and Wen Qi both raised their heads in surprise and looked at Yun.
"Of course you can't see the North Korean envoy." Yun smiled and said, "What my father just said was not meant for you and Wen Qi." He turned to look at Wen Yuan. "Wen Yuan, you are seventeen this year.
Years old, when my father was only fifteen years old, he was already working. You should also start practicing."
"Yes, father." Wen Yuan suppressed his excitement, stood up and agreed.
"What about the son, father?" Wen Qi asked.
"You, continue studying in school." Yun said to him with a smile.
Wen Qi was a little disappointed, but didn't say anything. The second brother was the crown prince and had a different status. It was normal for his father to treat him differently from himself. Didn't the eldest brother also study in a school before going to Bangladesh?
"But Wenqi, you have also been studying for ten years. From the elementary school to the university, you have learned everything you need to learn. There is no need to learn the rest. My father's intention is to let you go to the martial arts hall.
After two years of writing, I will be more confident about commanding the army in the future." Yun Que said again.
"Yes, father." Wen Qi's disappointment disappeared and he happily agreed.
"Wen Yin, you are still young. You are only fourteen years old this year. When you are seventeen, your father will also have arrangements for you." Yun said to his fifth son.
"Yes, father." Wen Yin also bowed and agreed.
Min'er knew what was going on and kept silent. If she spoke up, her father would definitely mention letting her get married, but she had no idea about getting married, so it was better to remain silent. Yun glanced at her, but did not persuade her tonight.
Because of the influence of later generations, Yun was not very concerned about the fact that her eldest daughter was still unmarried at the age of nineteen. She talked to her children for a while and answered a few questions from them. It was already getting late, and Min'er got up and took her with her.
The three younger brothers retreated to rest.
"Husband, it's really time to let Yuan'er go out to work. He likes to read, and he even seems to be a bit of a nerd. I am also a little reluctant to let him go out to do work. I know that although the contents in the books are all true, doing things is not that easy.
, he will gradually understand more things, which will be very beneficial to him in governing the country in the future." Xiyao said.
Xiyao should not say this under normal circumstances. Yun is only in his thirties this year. No young and powerful emperor will be happy if the prince is asked to do things now. But during this time, Xiyao said this
But it was very frequent, and Yun didn't express any objection.
'You really shouldn't have had such thoughts at that time, let alone said it to Xiyao. No, since you have had thoughts, you should tell others, otherwise sooner or later you will keep them in your heart and do bad things. You shouldn't have had such thoughts in the first place.
Thoughts.' Yun thought. While thinking about this sentence, he remembered the situation when he told Xiyao about it.
…
…
"Husband." Seeing Yun come back, Xiyao quickly put down what she was doing, bent down and saluted.
"It's already noon, and you haven't finished giving instructions in the palace?" Yun asked.
"The Lantern Festival has just passed, and there are still some things that have not been dealt with. They are all trivial matters, so they have not been dealt with until now."
He ordered the palace maid: "Bring the tea quickly."
"There's no need to be busy." Yun said, looked around, and then said to her: "Where are Min'er and the others, what are they doing?"
"Min'er went to talk to Siqi. Wen Yuan and Wen Yin were studying in the house. Wen Qi left the palace and said he was going to the market, but God knows where he would go. The younger ones were all gathered together.
Playing." Xiyao replied.
"Fortunately." Yun said softly, and after the palace maids brought the refreshments, the eunuch ordered all the palace ladies in the room: "You all should stand down. No matter what happens, you are not allowed to enter this room without my order."
"Yes, the official family." All the servants agreed, turned around and left the room. The last person to leave closed the doors and windows.
"Husband, do you have anything important to tell me?" Xiyao asked. This is so strange. Is there something secret that cannot be heard by anyone? Xiyao subconsciously felt something was wrong.
Yun did not answer her immediately, but checked the door and window again, then walked back to Luohan's bed and said to Xiyao: "Yao'er, what do you think of Wen Yin?"
"Of course Yin'er is very good. Although Yin'er is only fourteen years old, he works seriously, is calm, and very organized. The teachers in the school all praise him. What's more important is that although Yin'er also likes to read,
But he is not a person who studies hard. According to my husband, he is a person who can read in and out, which is very difficult at his age. Yin'er will definitely be a good king in the future, and the people under his command will live a very happy life.
Not bad." Xiyao praised her second son effusively. However, her praise was not mindless flattery, Wen Yin was indeed very good.
"Yes, Wen Yuan is indeed so outstanding, and many ministers of the DPRK and Central Government who have met him have praised him. How do you think he compares with Wen Yuan?" Yun continued slowly.
"Wenyuan, husband, what do you mean by this?" Xiyao was about to comment a few words about her eldest son, but suddenly realized the meaning of this sentence. She stared straight at her husband and asked in a sharp voice.
road.
"Yao'er, it's just as you guessed." Yun stood up and said: "Wen Yin is not only calm and methodical in doing things, but he can also read well. The most important thing is that he is quick in thinking. No matter when he was fighting in the school before, his
There was a discussion about Zhuge Wuhou's gains and losses, and he could come up with the best way, or in other words, the most suitable way for the king of a country. As the king of a country, what is the most important thing? It is not the ability to do things, but the ability to do things.
He knows people well and can make decisions when the ministers are arguing. Wen Yin is very consistent with this."
"On the other hand, Wen Yuan, although he is very conscientious in his work, is always a bit dull. What he does cannot be said to be wrong, but it is not the most suitable way. Moreover, he is prone to hesitation in doing things, and it is difficult to make decisions when he feels that several opinions are reasonable.
.It should be noted that hesitation is the most harmful to the three armies. Even if he makes the wrong decision, it is better than not making a decision. As for employing people, he hasn’t done much yet and can’t see it yet, but the helper he chose during the fight in the school was
Not quite appropriate."
"From this point of view, Wen Yin is more suitable to be the crown prince and husband than Wen Yuan. I would like to discuss with you that Wen Yuan should be the crown prince instead of Wen Yuan." Yun finally said.
Yes, what Yun wanted to discuss with Xiyao was to change the crown prince. He was dissatisfied with Wen Yuan's handling of the school fight the year before last, but felt that Wen Yuan's approach was the most appropriate; after that, he taught his sons several times
, Wen Yuan's opinions were not to his liking every time, but every time Wen Yuan put forward an idea, he thought it was very correct. Slowly, he developed the idea of Yi Chu.
But because he himself became the emperor's grandson by virtue of his status as the second grandson, and he always insisted on the eldest son inheritance system, when he first had such thoughts in his heart, he thought it was ridiculous and unacceptable; but slowly, as Wen Wen
Yin's performance was getting better and better, but Wen Yuan's was still unsatisfactory. This thought was like a fire burning more and more. Finally, he decided to express his thoughts to his wife. Fortunately, both Wen Yuan and Wen Yuan were
He is Xiyao's biological son. Xiyao should not be biased towards any side.
