Chapter 754 Prince(1/2)
"What do Chen Aiqing's opinion on the dispute over the foundation of the country?"
Chen Shuwen, who was suddenly named to answer the question, was confused by Yidian.
It seemed as if I had returned to the Imperial Academy class, and I had just arrived and didn't know everything, I was suddenly named by the Master.
He took a deep breath and said cautiously: "Your Majesty... I have no opinion."
Emperor Xiao Chengwen smiled and said, "How could he not have any opinions? Even a rural villager could say a few words. You, a student of the Imperial Academy and well-read poetry, must have your own position. Even if you listen to it, you will never pursue it afterwards."
Chen Shuwen smiled bitterly.
It feels like someone is being roasted on fire, and it is almost cooked.
He bowed slightly and whispered: "I am naturally supporting Your Majesty. As the student below said, Your Majesty is the heir appointed by the late emperor, and is justified and the orthodox of the Great Wei! Your Majesty is the foundation of the country!"
Emperor Xiao Chengwen nodded with a smile, not commenting on it.
"What are you busy with when Mr. Cui recently?"
"Mr. Cui is busy writing and speaking, wanting to collect the articles from these years into a book to give future generations some inspiration."
"He is so leisurely and enviable."
Since resigning from the army, Lord Cui Zhi and Cui handed over military power and refused to enter the court to serve.
Go home decisively and continue his retirement life.
The court is a matter of trouble. He is very scheming and will definitely not enter the court to be cannon fodder at this time, and he is even more unwilling to be a pioneer.
It’s better to go home to take care of your old age, play with your grandchildren, and write books in your spare time. Wouldn’t it be nice?
"You said, how many people are really thinking about the kindness of the late emperor and really want to bring the three princes back to Jianzhou?"
Emperor Xiao Chengwen seemed to be talking to himself, and seemed to be asking.
Being with the king is like a tiger!
Chen Shuwen was trembling at this moment, and he didn't dare to answer this question.
But it's not appropriate to say anything.
He said carefully: "Maybe there are a few people!"
Emperor Xiao Chengwen smiled, "Are there only a few people? Chen Shuwen, Chen Shuwen, others say you are a gentleman in the morning, and I have to say that today I look like a timid official in the officialdom, and no one will offend you. You are the son-in-law of the Cui family, so what are you afraid of?"
Chen Shuwen smiled bitterly and said frankly: "I am afraid of rumors, my colleagues, I am afraid of being held responsible, and I am afraid of being unlucky to be thrown out to blame when something happens."
This statement seems very true, but in fact it is only half true and half false.
Emperor Xiao Chengwen smiled happily, "You are the son-in-law of the Cui family. Even if something happens one day, it will not be your turn to come out to take the blame. It can be seen that years of experience in the officialdom have made you lose your sincerity, your edges and your edges and your smoothness."
What can Shen Shuwen do?
He could only bow and apologize, "What the young master taught me is the lesson!"
"Of course, this is not your fault. In this environment, it is so difficult to maintain a sincere heart. You don't have to be nervous, no one is asking for any crime. This time, the imperial court's spring examination must strictly check and select a group of students who are sincerely loyal to the court. Are you willing to serve in the Ministry of Rites?"
Chen Shuwen was startled and then happy.
Of course he was willing to go to the Ministry of Rites.
I never expected good things to fall from the sky.
He bowed and said, "It depends on the instructions of the young master!"
"Very good! When you arrive at the Ministry of Rites, you will be a good job and do this spring exam."
"Okay! I dare not disappoint my son. I must be a good job and take the imperial court."
...
He quietly returned to the palace and changed his clothes. Emperor Xiao Chengwen went to the harem, intending to have dinner with Queen Yan Yunqi.
He was in a good mood after spending his day outside.
I was prepared for the illness, but I was not so disappointed after learning the examination results.
As soon as he entered the hall, the eldest prince, Xiao Yan, also the only prince, stepped forward and bowed.
"My son wishes my father!"
A child with a big fart, greets him and looks straight, like a little adult.
Emperor Xiao Chengwen had a smile in his eyes, held the child's hand and walked into the hall, "Where is your mother's descendant?"
"The mother is in the small garden behind to take care of flowers and plants."
"Where is your sister?"
"My sister is leaving the palace today and going to attend a banquet for her friends in her boudoir. Calculate the time and it's almost time to come back."
"Can you study hard today?"
"Some fathers have to examine their son's homework?"
"So confident?" Emperor Xiao Chengwen laughed and randomly took a text and asked him to recite it.
Prince Xiao Yan opened his mouth and began to recite it, without any pause in the middle. A hundreds of words was completed in one go, with ups and downs, which shows that he had put in hard work.
Emperor Xiao Chengwen was very satisfied, touched his head and encouraged: "It's very good!"
Prince Xiao Yan smiled secretly, his eyes narrowed into a slit.
At this moment, he showed the innocence and simplicity that he should have at this age.
There is no need for external material, just a word of encouragement or affirmation from my father, which can make him happy for several days.
The father and son came to the backyard of Dafu Hall. The originally bare courtyard was opened into a flower field and a vegetable field by Queen Yan Yunqi.
Now, she is taking care of the flowers and plants.
When he saw the father and son coming, he directly gave him a small shovel to the emperor and asked him to loosen the soil.
Emperor Xiao Chengwen: "..."
He held the shovel and was obviously stunned for a moment. Then he shook his head helplessly, bent down, and loosened the soil with the queen.
"It's almost dark, and you're still busy relaxing the soil. What are you doing during the day?"
"I took a nap and got up. It was too late. What I planned to complete today will have to be done even if the time was too late."
"You can sleep when you are sleepy in spring and in autumn."
Queen Yan Yunqi pursed her lips and smiled, "It is also a blessing to be able to eat and sleep. I heard from the palace servants that your appetite seems to have decreased recently. Is it not to fit your appetite?"
Emperor Xiao Chengwen denied, "Why the weather is due to the beginning of spring, my appetite is not very good. In previous years, the same was true."
She stopped her work and looked at the other person, "How about making some appetizers. You seem to have lost weight recently."
She was very anxious inside, but she didn't show any sign of it.
Even caring seems to be underestimated and will not add any burden to people.
Emperor Xiao Chengwen shook his head, "No need to make appetizers on purpose, I like lighter meals."
She laughed, "Your taste hasn't changed at all over the years."
"yes!"
Prince Xiao Yan suddenly said, "Mother, my son is very edible. I want to eat meat tonight!"
She laughed, "Is there a dish of sauce to eat at night, do you like it?"
"I like it!" After saying that, the prince Xiao Yan took the small bucket and went to collect the water.
Looking at the child's back as he left, Emperor Xiao Chengwen was extremely satisfied.
He said to her: "If you have time, tell your children about what happened in the court. After all, it is a prince. You can't relax the content you should learn."
But unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, the small shovel in her hand fell directly to the ground.
He looked at her and asked with a look.
She smiled awkwardly, hiding her panic and nervousness.
She took a deep breath, picked up the shovel, pretended to be nothing, and asked softly: "What do you think of the doctor? Is the situation serious?"
He smiled and held her hand, "I will arrange everything and will not let you and your children be wronged."
She looked at him with her eyes flushed, "If you have a few mistakes, how could my child and I not be wronged? The dispute over the foundation of the country becomes more and more intense, and sooner or later will cause chaos. Tell me the truth, what did the doctor say?"
He acted very relaxedly, raised his hand and stroked her cheek, "It's all cliché, congenital deficiencies, and life spanning limited."
"I could suppress the disease before, but now I can't! The method I used before, can't I use it now?" She was very frightened.
He whispered: "You don't understand! Just think that the previous method is useless. Don't panic, I still have a few years to arrange everything."
Queen Yan Yunqi looked sad and smiled desolately, "Is there really nothing I can do?"
He said lightly: "A person is destined to live for several days."
She looked up at the sky to stop the tears from falling.
"If I had known this, wouldn't it be another situation and more time if I refused to inherit the throne?"
To be continued...
