The emperor has been on the throne for twenty years and has seen through many things. Now he doesn't really care about the character and talents of his children and grandchildren. Even if he wants to establish a prince, there can only be one. As long as the remaining ones can be honest and obedient and serve themselves, they will be good princes and grandchildren!
Originally, the emperor wanted to deprive Dai Wang of his military power, but now seeing his attitude, he thought it would be a good idea to leave the military power to Dai Wang.
If the two evil sons of the King of Qi and the King of Shu gain military power, they may not be so obedient as the king.
It is possible to suppress the next generation of kings, but the generation of kings has a shallow foundation and is deprived of military power. There is no way to restrain the king of Qi and the king of Shu.
"As long as you know you're wrong, I think it's your first time offending, so I won't go into details. After you think about it, I will use you again." The emperor slowly put down the tea bowl in his hand, with a calm expression.
"Sun Chen will definitely remember the emperor's teachings and think about his mistakes at home!" Su Ziji kowtowed again and replied sincerely. After speaking, he raised his eyes slightly and looked at the emperor with some hesitation: "Your Majesty..."
Because Su Ziji's previous performance satisfied the emperor, the emperor said directly: "You say it!"
"Originally, Sun Chen would visit the Queen every month as a routine, but now that I have thought about it, how can I disturb her again? Here are the scriptures handwritten by Sun Chen, please give it to the emperor."
With that said, he handed over the wooden box that he had just put aside.
Ma Shunde hurriedly took a few steps to take it, opened it and checked it, and found that there was no problem before delivering it to the emperor with both hands.
The emperor saw that there were only three volumes inside, which should be a scripture copied on three blank scrolls. He flipped through it and found that they were indeed hand-copied scriptures. The contents were common and there was nothing weird about them.
The emperor was naturally even more satisfied that the king could show such filial piety. He smiled and said, "I promise you, you can go out of the palace."
"Sun Chen, please retire." Su Ziji then respectfully retreated. He did not turn around until he exited the entrance of the palace. At this time, candles or lanterns were lit in the palace. The lights were bright, and the guards were still standing like nails under the light.
On Danchi.
After just one glance, Su Ziji walked back along the corridor and finally let out a sigh of relief.
"The atmosphere in the capital is a bit mottled, but there has been no change at all in the palace. It can be seen that the revival of spiritual energy will not change the general trend."
"It's just that the imperial court has not declined, but the emperor may not."
Su Ziji is both happy and sad, and the Panlong Mind Technique is level 20. Although the power of teaching requires hard work and accumulation little by little, the perception is naturally very sharp and he can feel the changes.
The imperial palace's laws and regulations were strict and had no flaws, but Su Ziji keenly felt the decline within prosperity, and the decline came from the emperor.
"Xiao Huan Dan, the effect is not obvious anymore."
No wonder the old emperor was so impatient. If he didn't refine the Great Return Pill, he was afraid that he would soon be unable to hold on.
"What do you think?" Watching King Dai go away, the emperor remained silent for a while, then asked somewhere.
Ma Shunde was slightly startled, looked in the direction, and saw an old eunuch coming out from behind the screen.
The old eunuch looked unfamiliar. He was not young yet, but his steps were still light. When he arrived in front of the emperor, he picked up the scripture and looked through it carefully, checking for traces. After half the time, he reported: "Your Majesty, these three volumes are ordinary
The scriptures were copied by hand, not a single word was changed, and there were no cryptic words or potions on the paper."
The simplest way is to write on rice water, and then rub it with iodine and it will turn blue. It used to be top secret, but now there are regulations to deal with it. If nothing else, just the traces of rice water, in fact, if you specifically check it, it will be fine without iodine.
Traces can be seen.
"That's good. It seems that Dai Wang is pure filial piety!" The emperor nodded, casually named a eunuch, and said, "Send the scriptures to the Queen and say that they were copied by Dai Wang for her."
The eunuch who was called immediately responded and walked out holding the wooden box containing the scriptures.
The old eunuch also bowed and retreated, disappearing into the darkness.
Seeing this person "disappear", Ma Shunde hurriedly lowered his head and continued to stand, not daring to show any surprise.
This old eunuch is not a mysterious person. When Ma Shunde first climbed up from the junior eunuch, he was already a senior eunuch. He was more senior than the Eunuch Zhao who was suppressed by him. It is said that he also possesses martial arts and leads a group of people in the palace.
He had a secret power, but Ma Shunde had never seen this person take action, and he rarely saw him again. He thought he was not in the capital, but he came back at some unknown time.
The emperor even hid it from him and secretly transferred back such an old eunuch?
Thinking of this, Ma Shunde felt really chilled in his heart. He felt that the emperor's heart was unpredictable. The emperor was really suspicious!
At this moment, the queen was taking off the hairpins in front of the mirror. She took them off one by one without using any help from the palace maid. She couldn't help but be startled when she looked at herself in the bronze mirror, who was gradually becoming purer.
"I'm old, my beauty is gone!"
The subtle wrinkles are already there, and the bright eyes are still as bright as before, and the eyes are still as bright as water, but how deep the water is is not known to outsiders.
"Queen, can we have dinner?" Zhaoxia asked in a low voice.
The queen glanced slightly: "You go and eat, I have no appetite."
"Your Majesty, how about I give you a bowl of porridge made with rouge rice?" Zhaoxia persuaded. After hearing the news just now, the Queen's appetite was a little bad.
Not wanting to worry the people around her, the queen thought for a while and said, "That's all, just serve me a bowl, so that you don't have to keep talking about it in my ears."
As soon as Zhaoxia gave a blessing, she notified the stove to bring the rouge rice porridge. After saying that, a palace maid hurriedly came in from outside and bowed to the queen Yingying: "I have seen the queen, empress, the emperor sent someone to say that she is a substitute."
The king has given you something."
"The king is not here?" the queen was slightly startled and asked.
After asking, he sneered again and said, "Look at me, I'm confused. The emperor just issued a decree to let the king shut up and think about his mistakes. How can the king come to see me? Let the king come in."
After a while, the eunuch who came to deliver things entered the inner hall. He did not dare to look at the queen's face. He only dared to lower his eyes to the ground and bowed respectfully: "I have seen the queen."
"Are you here to deliver the King's things?"
"Go back to your Majesty, although the king cannot come to see you, he has specially sent you a scripture copied by his own hand. This is really filial." The eunuch said with an apologetic smile.
"Oh?" The queen had already received the scriptures in the wooden box from the palace maid. She didn't take it seriously at first. The reason why she looked through it was because the scriptures were copied by the king himself, which represented filial piety.
"The calligraphy is good, but the calligraphy of King Dai is difficult for all the kings to compare." The queen also knows the art, and the calligraphy of King Dai looks better than the calligraphy of famous calligraphers collected in the palace. It is pleasing to the eye.
After turning a few pages, her eyes suddenly fell on a line of words, and her hands paused.
Although her heart was tumbling, the queen's face did not change at all. She put the sutra book back into the wooden box and let the palace maid hold it. She faced the eunuch who came to deliver the things and said calmly: "You can talk, come and appreciate it."
He has ten taels of silver."
"Go back and tell the emperor that I like you very much."
