I'll tell you the secret and let's laugh together!

Ning Shengan sat on the other side, and the king and his minister were playing chess.

"To be honest, I wanted to beat him up when I was at the banquet that day. I have been looking for an opportunity these past two days. God helps those who work hard. Finally, I found a good opportunity last night. This old guy is getting more and more cunning. I have to teach him a lesson. Just treat it as interest first."

Emperor Mu Wu looked unhappy, "Humanity is like a snake swallowing an elephant. How can you be so greedy that you have to covet things that don't belong to you? It's really ridiculous."

Ning Sheng'an heard the hidden meaning of Emperor Mu Wu's words. It seemed that he had found out the relationship between Prince Zhenbei and the new forces that had poured into the capital. He did not ask about this matter, but started talking about another thing.

"Your Majesty, since the King of Zhenbei has found the Taoist priest Qingzhen, I am afraid he will have another trick up his sleeve. The art of longevity and longevity are all lies."

Emperor Muwu gave birth to a son. "I understand everything, my Lord. Life is full of ups and downs, birth, aging, sickness and death. Only in this way can it be in line with the course of life. I have a good prince and several good sons. To be honest, I have no regrets in this life, and I don't pursue these things."

"I kept the Taoist priest who entered the palace from outside the palace a while ago just to see something new. Don't worry, I will never do anything stupid."

Hearing Emperor Mu Wu say this, Ning Shengan nodded respectfully and took the initiative to change the subject.

Everything Emperor Mu Wu said came from his heart. He had everything he needed now. His wife and children were by his side, and the country was becoming stronger and stronger under his governance. He really had nothing else to ask for.

But if the situation changed, the choice he made would be different. Let's imagine that the man is in his old age, and his most beloved youngest son suddenly breaks his leg. The son who lost his leg begins to withdraw from the world, stays in his house and never leaves, healing himself alone.

You, feeling sorry for your son, have sought out famous doctors all over the world, but to no avail. Not long after, your wife, who has been with you through thick and thin, loses her child due to excessive worry. After a while, she passes away from excessive grief. At that moment, half of his heart is dead.

You thought the matter ended here, but not long after, your eldest son, who you had high hopes for and taught with great care, suddenly died, and you lost your most outstanding heir.

A huge change happened within a short period of time, and the originally harmonious and happy family disappeared like a cloud of smoke in the blink of an eye.

People who have experienced blow after blow are getting worse day by day, but the country has no new successor and there are still a lot of messes that need to be cleaned up, and the seriously ill people are powerless to do anything.

At this time, a Taoist priest suddenly came and said that he had a way to help you live longer and strengthen your body.

In order to have time to train a new successor, he could only slowly trust the Taoist priest, and finally stepped into the abyss step by step.

Fortunately, everything has changed. The circumstances in this life are different, and Emperor Mu Wu’s choices are also completely different.

"Huaiyuan, it's not bad to think about it from another angle. Those people mistakenly thought that I wanted to live forever and trusted Taoist priests, so they did everything they could to find Taoist priests to send to me, and these Taoist priests would mention elixirs in front of me from time to time."

"They just want me to indulge in alchemy and pursue immortality, neglecting state affairs. I understand their little thoughts. It just so happens that I haven't had a rest in the past few years, so I can take this opportunity to have a good rest."

Ning Shengan paused as he placed the chess piece down, raised his head and asked, "Your Majesty, do you want to place all the heavy responsibilities on the Crown Prince alone?"

Emperor Mu Wu's face turned red, knowing that based on Ning Sheng'an's understanding of him, he must have discovered his little thoughts, and he coughed lightly in embarrassment.

"Ahem, yes, I have been feeling unwell these past few days, so resting is the right thing to do. Besides, the prince has long been able to handle things on his own, and I just want to train him a little more."

"Well, whatever you say, Your Majesty."

Emperor Muwu: ...

It's not good to have someone who knows you too well. As soon as I had the thought of being lazy, he discovered it.

However, Emperor Mu Wu still had a way to bribe Ning Shengan, so he lowered his voice and said:

"Oh, it must be very boring during this period of recuperation. I just got two sets of fishing gear, but I don't know if there is anyone who can go fishing with me."

Ning Shengan put the chess pieces back into the chess box one by one, smiling with his eyes curved, which was very similar to the way Ning Zhiyi smiled.

"Your Majesty is busy with all kinds of affairs and works day and night for the country and the people. It is normal for you to feel unwell. The Crown Prince is a dragon among men. In addition, he has been taught by Your Majesty for so many years. I think His Royal Highness can handle state affairs independently."

"But your Majesty loves his son so much that you can't bear to leave the Crown Prince alone to handle state affairs. You have been helping the Crown Prince to manage state affairs for so many years. It's hard, really too hard. You must take good care of yourself!"

Ning Shengan's words were powerful and he spoke without blushing or breathing hard, which stunned Eunuch Quanzhi.

Well, he said that Miss Ning sometimes looked very familiar, and now he has found the source. Isn't that exactly the same as General Ning's "shameless" look!

However, the father and daughter both look very good, with each one being sweeter than the other. Their words are as sweet as honey, which makes people feel very happy and cheerful, so they will naturally agree to everything they say.

"Hahaha!"

Emperor Mu Wu laughed heartily, and Ning Shengan saw this and immediately suggested:

"Your Majesty, playing chess hurts your eyes. Why don't we go fishing and relax?"

Emperor Mu Wu loves playing chess, while Ning Sheng'an loves fishing. They did the same when they were young. They would play chess for a while and then go fishing for a while, so that both of their hobbies could be satisfied.

He would not overly indulge Emperor Mu Wu just because he was a prince and later the emperor's younger brother, and Emperor Mu Wu would not use his status to force Ning Sheng'an to satisfy his hobbies.

When there were no outsiders around, the two of them got along more like good friends rather than a stereotyped relationship between a ruler and his subjects.

Care for each other and accommodate each other.

Of course, Ning Shengan is definitely more accommodating to Emperor Mu Wu, but Emperor Mu Wu will also consider Ning Shengan's feelings. This is also the most important reason why the monarch and his minister have never been alienated for so many years.

......

Prince's Mansion.

The prince looked at the pile of memorials in front of him and fell into deep thought, then looked at the eunuch Quanzhi standing beside him.

"Father-in-law, what does this mean?"

After reviewing memorials for so long, the prince was very clear about the number of memorials he had to review every day. In the past, the number was only half of what it is now. Why were there so many more memorials today?

Grandpa Quanzhi was smiling from ear to ear, with wrinkles all over his face.

"Your Highness, the number of memorials has increased sharply in the past two days. His Majesty said that Your Highness needs to work hard."

It was said that the eunuch bowed respectfully and left, leaving the prince staring at the pile of memorials in a daze.
