The copper leaking outside the hall made a slow sound of water droplets, and it tapped lightly in the water tank gilded with gold and silver animal patterns.
The emperor's heart was up and down, thinking of Huo Chong's voice and smile for a while, and thinking about the follow-up to Huo Budo for a while. He is the king of a country, no matter how sad he is, he can't be like a woman. Naturally, he has to have a reasonable explanation to the courtiers, but Huo Budo's future must also be arranged in a golden light to live up to the heroic spirit of his righteous brother.
When the emperor was planning in his mind, the impatient third prince spoke again: "My son knows that the father is kind, but the brothers of the Ling family are really hateful, and my son thinks that non-ethnic punishment is not enough to comfort the heroes! There is not one left to kill him, and we will see who will return. Dare to cooperate with the enemy and betray the country!" It was good that he didn't speak, but his mouth just reminded the emperor of another thing.
The emperor sat up straight and stared: "The surnamed Ling can't be lightly forgiven, but you can't escape! Last night Zicheng privately transferred the army for his own sake. You two little beasts, you have been pretending to look like you over the years, no If you don't communicate, you don't have good words when you meet, so it turns out that there was collusion! Say, are you instigating Zisheng!" As he said this, he glanced at Jin Lian indifferently.
The third prince seemed to be pinching a rotten peach by his throat, and Ai Ai said: "What, father, in fact, Zisheng and I are quarreling in private, not all of them are fake..."
Huo Budo smiled bitterly. : "Your Majesty, the minister and the third prince have indeed been in contact for a long time, but the minister dares to swear to the heaven that the third prince will never know about what happened the night before - because the minister used the seal of the East Palace to mobilize the tiger to leave the mountain earlier, and asked His Highness to go to Hongliuying to investigate a case of embezzling military supplies. The case is over. Several adults and ministers are correct." The
emperor forced himself not to look at Jinlian, and roared: "You, are you worthy of the queen and the prince like this?!"
Huo Budo lowered his eyes Whispered: "Of course I'm sorry." - Not only did he feel sorry for the queen and the crown prince, but there was also one person who he didn't even dare to think about now.
The third prince straightened his neck and said: "Father, don't scold Zisheng, when he was lifted up the cliff this morning, he was not only scarred, but also burning hot, it's not easy to sit up now, if you want to scold, scold him. Son-in-law!"
"Of course I want to scold you! There is nothing wrong with the prince, but you are so dissatisfied with him! You fought with the second child before, and the prince almost got his head smashed by the second child to protect you! And the queen, you were still young when you were young. The one raised in front of her, you ungrateful and obsessed evil, have you forgotten all about it!" The emperor roared full of anger, but he still scolded his son for being more refreshed.
"My son naturally didn't forget it." The third prince didn't change his face, "But my son dared to swear by his life that he never gave the prince a finger over the years! In fact, there have been several times when Zisheng went to war, and the accident in the East Palace was settled by the son secretly. If you don't believe me, you can go check it out!"
"Don't say anything happened to Lou Jing and Wang Chun, you didn't secretly rejoice!"
"A hypocrite, a real villain, used to have no reason to, and could only watch the crown prince believe in them. After finally being able to drive them away, the emperor still wants to keep them in the East Palace for the Shangsi Festival!"
"The Shangsi has already passed!" The emperor roared.
Rao is Shaoshang's heart is sullen, and he also wants to laugh at this time. She looked from the slit of the curtain, and the royal father and son roared loudly, and the blue veins on their foreheads were about the same position.
Except for the one who died prematurely, the Queen and Concubine Yue gave birth to ten sons to the old man. Although the old man was gentle in temperament, he was after all the honor of the ninety-five. Pleasant eyebrows. No matter how generous the second prince was, he did not dare to talk back in front of the emperor—this was the first time Shao Shang had seen such a scene.
After taking two breaths, the emperor said solemnly: "Don't shirk so cleanly! Although you don't know about Zicheng's deployment of troops the night before, but you have been secretly planning over the years, what thoughts are in your heart, and you don't need to cover them now. Cover it up. If you have the guts to do it, dare to admit it, and talk about it!"
Sure enough, Jiang is still old and hot, and these words are true. The third prince's expression turned several times, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Yes, I thought the crown prince was unbearable to be the heir, he couldn't afford this country!"
These words were too straight, and Huo Budo sighed lightly beside him.
The emperor was furious, pressed the ground hard and stood up, took off the sword hanging on the wall, and slapped the third prince with the scabbard, cursing: "Nizi Kuangyan! He can't afford the country, can you afford it! No matter how bad the crown prince is, at least he is more benevolent than you!"
After a few hits, Huo Budo hurriedly stood up to stop the emperor.
The third prince took two hard blows, his jaw clenched his cheeks, took a deep breath, and said, "The monarch doesn't care about being kind or mean, he just needs to act according to reason. Rewards and punishments are originally two sharp weapons in the hands of the monarch. , the superior can control the ministers, and the inferior can govern the people. And the prince's benevolence just gave up these two sharp tools. From the prince concubine to the ministers of the East Palace, the emperor's brother should not be rewarded, and the punishment should not be punished. There are worries everywhere. Does the royal father think this kind of benevolence is a good thing?"
"You have a scrutiny of your own temperament, so you come to criticize the benevolent brother, okay, I don't see you coming on weekdays! I also love benevolence, and I also appreciate the prince. Your kindness, how are you doing?!" The emperor held the hilt of the sword tightly with his right hand, trying to pull it out.
The third prince seemed to be willing to go out of his way, and he simply finished in one breath: "Emperor Yuan is also very kind, so Emperor Xuan no longer likes him to be soft and Confucian, and in the end he did not abolish him! But the chaos of the previous dynasty began in the reign of Emperor Yuan! Emperor Xuan also had two sons, the King of Huaiyang who was well aware of the law, and the King of Chu who was clever and talented. The two of them had governed their own feudal kingdom for decades, and they had hardly ever been a traitor. If Emperor Xuan had appointed either of them at that time, what would have been the state of affairs? The chaos will be unmanageable!"
"You evil obstacle!" The emperor shivered with anger and pulled out a blade.
Huo Budo supported the hurt body and pushed the third prince hard: "The small stick is accepted, the big stick is going, your Highness is not going fast!" The
third prince said that he was happy, and then he woke up and saw his father. I was so angry with myself that I quickly picked up my robe and ran out of the inner hall, disappearing in a blink of an eye.
The emperor didn't call anyone to arrest him, he just threw down his sword and glared at his adopted son: "You two have done a good deed! ... Don't sit down quickly, go there and lean on it!"
Huo Buzhuo smiled and pressed the arm on his body. Injury, slowly sit down against the armrest.
The emperor breathed hard, turned his head and said, "You, like Zi Duan, think the prince must be abandoned?"
Huo Budo lowered his head and said nothing.
The emperor was distressed by the ups and downs of his adopted son for more than ten years, and was reluctant to beat and scold him, so he could only bitterly say: "Are you stupid? Be the third child, hum, one day the two of you quarreled, he lost his temper and demoted you to the mountains and forests, I see where you are crying! When the prince ascends the throne, it is good for the rest of the princes and princesses, as well as for the empress Yue Concubine. Huo Buzhu suddenly said: "
Why is it good for the prince and princess, and the empress and concubine Yue? Why is it not good for the people of the world, and good for the country and society!" The
emperor suffocated and scolded: "You are also mad at me?! "
I dare not." Huo Budo looked sad, "I have been with the Third Highness for more than ten years, but Yichu thought about it, but it was only four or five years. Since then, I have known that I will not escape infidelity in the future." Unrighteous and ungrateful to take the name of the Lord. But, Your Majesty..."
He slowly raised his head and stared at his adoptive father, "This minister has only been by the Prince's side for a few years, and he can command all the military officials in the East Palace to make a secret tax report. The talisman letter is in the hands of the ministers. When the prince
ascends the throne in the future, the ministers will immediately be able to rule the country and rule over the country! Your Majesty, would you like to see this?" Cracked a seam. He said with a sullen face: "Then why don't you rule the country and rule the country alone, and control the power?"
Huo Budo said, "When the minister was young, I heard my father tell my mother that when the heroes fought together in the world, he was younger than His Majesty. He is richer than His Majesty's family, and his reputation and talent are not necessarily inferior to His Majesty, but he is still willing to assist His Majesty. Because he sees a brilliance in His Majesty, which is as quiet and steady as the boundless land, like a rushing river. Just as turbulent and majestic, strong but not bullying, soft and strong - my father believes that you are the real son of heaven who can stabilize the world and treat the people kindly." The
emperor smiled for the first time tonight, and said with a stern face: "You didn't know what to do until then. How old are you, how can you remember it so clearly, it's not just making up."
Huo Budo smiled and said, "I have a good memory since I was a child."
The emperor nodded: "It's just like your grandmother. Remember that after they got married, your father often boasted that the bride was knowledgeable and good at remembering."
Huo Buxuan's heart was filled with tears, and he still smiled: "My grandmother's memory is really good. , no matter how long ago the brothers and sisters made mistakes, she can say it clearly and casually." The
emperor knew that he had touched the pain point of his adopted son, so he could only change his words: "Then you can't transfer troops privately, how do you pass this threshold now? , have you ever thought about it!"
Huo Budoubt said, "I have no choice but to tell your Majesty about this. Hou Hou once hinted at His Majesty at the banquet, but His Majesty pretended not to understand; General Wu shouted. Once the prince did not understand the military, it was useless to go to the military camp, so His Majesty asked the minister to go to the East Palace to help; and Yan Shenxian, when the prince got married, he said that the crown prince was not suitable for the reserve... Your Majesty did not even listen to Yan Shenxian's words, the minister What else can I do? Let His Majesty see with his own eyes the result of the fall of power in the East Palace! Even if he is not a minister, as long as he is good at scheming and scheming, it is not difficult to gain the trust of the Crown Prince."
"Well said!" The curtain suddenly stretched out a jade hand, and the queen lifted the curtain slightly and walked out.
The emperor sighed secretly, and Huo Budo's face was full of shame.
The queen stood in front of Huo Budo and said quietly, "Everything Zisheng said makes sense, but you should also know that few princes who have been deposed since ancient times have a good end."
Huo Budo closed his eyes in embarrassment . , looking directly at the queen: "That year, the doctor came to Changqiu Palace to tell the history, and when it came to the story of Emperor Gao, the mother said that although Emperor Gao was not good enough, he ate the flesh of his biological father and abandoned a pair of children, but he was a good emperor after all. No matter how much he likes Qi Ji and Ruyi, it will hinder the court, so he doesn't dare to forcibly save them, even if he knows that Empress Lu will not let them go." The
queen's fingers trembled, and she looked at Huo Budo fixedly.
Huo Budo continued: "In Emperor Gao's heart, the Jiangshan community is far more important than loving the youngest son, but Emperor Xuan knew that the crown prince was inappropriate, so he still let it go. In his heart, the affection with the original queen was even more important. Therefore, since Emperor Gao, In the previous dynasty, there were six Ming monarchs in a fit of anger, swallowing mountains and rivers, and dominating the world, but after the self-proclaimed emperor, the court situation gradually became chaotic..."
"What a rhetoric of relentless abandonment of love!" The Empress said with a cold face, "Emperor Gao knew that his beloved son would die, and he endured it for the sake of the country, so you have to give up all your affection?"
Huo Budo knelt on his knees In front of the queen, she said word by word, "I know that I can't handle the empress and the prince, and I wish to die in order to express my gratitude." After a pause, he said, "Originally, I didn't expect to come back alive." The
emperor supported the handrail . Half-up, he wanted to say a few words for his adopted son, and he was worried about the queen, so he could only hang there.
"You are mistaken, you are not talking about yourself and the crown prince." The Queen said, "You were eight years old when you entered the palace. You are sensible, smart, eager to learn and humble, strong and less ill. I didn't worry about you much. Talking about the grace of raising and the responsibility of teaching, it is Your Majesty that you should thank. On the contrary, it was you who dealt with the prince back and forth and ran for the aftermath. If it weren't for you, the reputation of the prince would have been ruined long ago - although, I know that you are actually For His Majesty's sake, I don't want him to worry about it."
Having said that, the emperor still could see that the queen was angry, so he didn't dare to interrupt.
"I'm talking about the young businessman." The queen said coldly, "In the whole thing, His Majesty has set up the reserves improperly, the prince is mediocre and incompetent, the third child has great ambitions, you have a bloody feud, and I am a loving mother and a lot of failures... There is only Shaoshang. This matter has nothing to do with her, but you were dragged in innocently!"
Huo Budo's face also faded from a little blood, his lips trembled slightly, unable to speak.
"What you said just now is straightforward, give up Xiaoqing, and love the world. Well, now I'll ask you, since you went to the Ling Family Courtyard and transferred troops privately, have you decided to give up Shaoshang? !" the Queen asked heavily.
Huo Buyu held the wound painfully, and after a long while, he said with difficulty: "...Not bad." The
Queen sneered, "Good point!" After saying that, she walked to the emperor's desk, and there was a half of it on it. The exquisite lacquered wood frame with a foot height has a meniscus-shaped flat square copper frame hanging from the top. The queen took out the small copper hammer on the shelf and hurriedly beat it.
When the emperor said it was secret, no palace servants and eunuchs were allowed to be by his side. They all stayed in the palace from a distance. To summon them, they had to ring this copper face.
Huo Budo was puzzled, and the emperor sighed.
The queen went to the curtain again, and felt a rope from behind the balustrade and pulled it hard.
The dense and dense brocade curtains were drawn from both sides like a waterfall, and in the inner room sat a slender girl with long hair covering her back and her cheeks slightly snowing. She knelt and sat motionless, with her back to Huo Budo.
