"If father is tired, just go to rest. If you catch cold here, how can you make it?"

Qin Su sat on a chair beside him, and didn't intend to read the booklet.

Emperor Yong Le asked Eunuch Li to serve tea and snacks, and looked at Qin Su, "Why did Xun'er come back now? Father is going to be annoyed to death by these things."

"I've heard about it. It's true that it's an eventful time. At this moment, there are still people watching the excitement and wanting to add trouble."

While drinking tea, Qin Su casually brought up something important.

"Xun'er has heard about it too? I'm really pissed off. Fortunately, Xun'er is by my royal father's side. Look at your royal brothers, one by one, you've lost all the royal face."

Emperor Yong Le thought that Qin Su was talking about the princes, and when he mentioned the sons who made trouble for him, Emperor Yong Le couldn't help scolding a few words.

Qin Su was also a little surprised. She really didn't expect that she would be a positive example one day. She was the one who lost the royal family's face in the past.

After reassuring Emperor Yong Le, Qin Su brought up the matter of Prime Minister Shen, "Father, I also heard that there have been many rumors in Beijing recently that Prime Minister Shen is the orphan of the previous dynasty? The previous dynasty has been destroyed for a hundred years. , isn’t this nonsense?”

Emperor Yong Le suppressed the smile on his face, and looked at Qin Su with a look of sudden realization, "I'm asking why Xun'er came to see Emperor Father so early, and he was waiting here?

You are on good terms with that girl from the Shen family, and when you heard that something happened to Prime Minister Shen, you came here to ask me for an explanation? "

"Father, what are you talking about? It seems that the son is not filial. The son has not seen the father for more than a month, and he will have lunch with the father when he comes back. The father misunderstood the meaning of the son? Okay, the minister will leave .”

Qin Su stood up and was about to leave, but Emperor Yong Le hurriedly kept him there.

"You child, my father said casually, how can Xun'er take it seriously?"

Emperor Yong Le immediately arranged for someone to pass on the meal, stood up from behind the dragon table, and went to have a meal with Qin Su, "Actually, if you want to talk about Prime Minister Shen, the emperor is not unsuspecting, I would rather believe it than believe it. .”

As the two walked, Emperor Yong Le answered Qin Su's question just now, to put it bluntly, he still cared about this matter and wanted to distance himself from the Shen family.

This is not a good sign.

"According to my son's opinion, what does it matter if the former dynasty is destroyed and the orphans are not left behind?

Prime Minister Shen is highly respected, dedicated to serving the people, benefiting Dayong, and is a pillar of the court. As the saying goes, a hero does not ask where he comes from. If the father suspects such an important court official as Mr. Shen just because of these few rumors, wouldn't it be a shock to everyone? Minister's heart? "

Qin Su didn't hide his favoritism towards the Shen family, he meant to speak for the Shen family.

Emperor Yong Le naturally understood what Qin Su meant, and shook his head helplessly, "Xun'er, you are straightforward and protective, but you don't know that not everyone is like this in the world. If you meet someone with ulterior motives in the future, you may what to do?"

"With the emperor around, who would dare to have evil intentions against my son?" Qin Su answered smoothly, trying to make Emperor Yong Le happy.

"What if the father is gone? Who will protect my son?"

While talking, Emperor Yong Le felt a little melancholy.

Qin Su was taken aback, and allowed Emperor Yong Le to rub his hair like coaxing a child, but his voice became hoarse, "How can father and emperor say such despondent words, I have grown up, and I will protect my father from now on." Emperor."

"My son is filial." Emperor Yong Le sat down with Qin Su, with a more sad expression on his face, "Xun'er, Father knows well. It is rare for people to be seventy years old. Father has passed the age of knowing destiny. How many decades can I protect you?

Originally, the father wanted to entrust it to your second brother, but he didn't expect that something happened to your second brother. It was a trick of fate. "

"The meaning of the entrustment by the father is to pass on the throne to the second brother?"

Qin Su asked bluntly.

Emperor Yong Le didn't shy away either, "Father originally thought this way, your second brother was born smart, there is nothing wrong with him except being a little lazy, plus Father is old now, he really doesn't want to work harder, thinking about it It's a pity that the Zen position is early, but the sky fails to fulfill people's wishes."

When Qin Su heard that Emperor Yong Le had the intention of abdicating, his heart tightened, and he seemed to feel it. He looked at Emperor Yong Le with drooping eyelids, and blurted out the words in his heart, "If that's the case, why can't it be my son? My son thinks he won't lose. Any royal brother."

Startled by Qin Su's bold proposal, Emperor Yong Le looked at Qin Su and remained silent for a while, "Xun'er, this matter is not a joke."

"My son never thought it was a child's play."

Qin Su looked at Emperor Yong Le seriously, this was the first time she talked about this matter with Emperor Yong Le so bluntly.

This is the end of the conversation, Qin Su only thought that Emperor Yong Le would know about it sooner or later, in this case, it is better to tell Emperor Yong Le earlier, otherwise there will be a real mess in the future.

If Qin Su was joking, Emperor Yong Le would still not take it to heart, but now looking at Qin Su who is so serious, he is in a dilemma.

"Xun'er, is this the truth? You have to know that being an emperor is not as easy as you think. There are endless excerpts and advice every day. There are rules on the left and right. This palace is like a palace. A huge golden cage, as the emperor, you have to live in this cage for the rest of your life, how can Xun'er bear this kind of life?"

Emperor Yong Le spoke the truth. Although he has been in power for decades, he has never been very happy during these decades. What he yearns for more is the kind of drunken landscape and a free life. He was a romantic literati, but he was born in the emperor's family.

His upbringing and sense of responsibility since he was a child made him unable to do anything reckless and unrestrained. He could only regard this palace as a cage to imprison him and torture each other. Therefore, in his eyes, what good could the throne be?

It has to be said that Emperor Yong Le's thoughts are completely opposite to those of Qin Su and his princes. He's the arsenic, my honey. In the eyes of Emperor Yong Le, he can't wait to give up the throne early, but he doesn't know how many people are For this seat, he was beaten to death.

Qin Su understood the difference between Emperor Yong Le's thoughts and his own, so he just took this opportunity to express his ambition to Emperor Yong Le.

"My father doesn't understand my son. My father's long-cherished wish in his life is to be in the mountains and rivers, to be as unrestrained and free as that fairy, but the son's long-cherished wish is to make our Dayong country rich and prosperous, and to create another one, just like the emperor. The prosperous and prosperous world when grandpa was alive, just like grandpa, his name will be left in history and will last through the ages."

Emperor Yong Le couldn't recover from Qin Su's words for a long time, and after a while he took a breath with a complex expression, "Xun'er has great ambitions."

"Father, I know my father's love for my son, I also know my father's thoughts, but everyone has their own ambitions, everyone has their own favorite life, the life that my father likes, my son may not like it, I don't want to hide this from my father, I think so in my heart, so I said so."

Qin Su did not criticize Emperor Yong Le's ambitions. For Qin Su, there was no distinction between high and low ambitions. Fortunately, Emperor Yong Le was not the kind of person obsessed with the power of the throne. Otherwise, if Qin Su was forced into the palace, she really couldn't do it. come out.

After Qin Su finished speaking, Emperor Yong Le sat down at the table first, "Xun'er, let's eat first."

Those words just said, to Emperor Yong Le, it has to be said that it was a big shock.

It was the first time that father and daughter had lunch in such silence, Emperor Yong Le seemed to have finally made a decision in his heart.

"Xun'er, what you said just now, the father has carefully considered, and all other things, the father can follow you, because the father is an emperor after all, even if you make a lot of mess, the father can help you. You have cleaned it up, but this matter, father, has to consider for the people of the world."

Emperor Yong Le's words were also expected by Qin Su. Although Emperor Yong Le only had a little sense of responsibility, he was not allowed to treat this matter as a trifle.

"Father, my son knows."

Emperor Yong Le nodded, he was really afraid that Qin Su would hang himself if he would cry, make trouble with him, and he would really have nothing to do with Qin Su.

"If Xun'er is really determined, then from today onwards, it is better to let Xun'er act as Chao Gang for a period of one month, so that the emperor can see Xun'er's ability. If Xun'er can make all the officials submit and the people support him, then Father has nothing else to say, if it fails, Xun'er can't lose his temper, do you agree?"

Seeing Qin Su's obedient response, Emperor Yong Le felt his heart melt into a ball of water again, and couldn't help but reflect on whether he had refused too ruthlessly just now. Take a chance.

Qin Su's eyes widened, this was really a surprise to her, although Emperor Yong Le's tone sounded as if he coaxed her to take medicine when he was a child, and then carefully stuffed her with candy.

"Father, are you serious?"

"You are not joking, why did the father deceive Xun'er?"

Seeing Qin Su's surprise, Emperor Yong Le also felt happy, and nodded Qin Su's forehead, "Don't be too happy, if you know that this matter is not easy, and you will be very annoying, don't come to cry with Father .”

"Father is still a son and a baby? Still crying."

Qin Su smiled and assured that the opportunity was for nothing, and it was too late for her to laugh, but Emperor Yong Le still regarded her as that whim and delicate baby.

Emperor Yong Le really did what he said. Qin Su, who had lunch that day, was locked in the imperial study by Emperor Yong Le. He approved the papers that were piled taller than a person. It was different from the past where he just issued opinions and directly put them on the ink pen. , direct approval.

Qin Su only felt that his eyes were staring straight when he was writing, and he couldn't even control his hands. He was more tired than practicing swords all day and all night without sleep.

But Emperor Yong Le couldn't bear it, sat next to Qin Su, and when Qin Su didn't understand or could not make up his mind, he opened his mouth to give some pointers.

By the time the father and daughter finished approving the papers, it was already late at night, even Eunuch Li couldn't help leaning against the door frame and almost fell asleep, and Emperor Yong Le even had his head slumped on the couch and couldn't get up.

Qin Su mechanically closed the last booklet and breathed a sigh of relief. She had reasonable reasons to suspect that Emperor Yong Le might have saved this booklet for a month.

"Are you tired, Your Highness?"

Eunuch Li watched Qin Su put down his pen, tapped his head to wake up, and quickly handed him the tea he had prepared earlier, and gave Qin Su a shoulder squeeze.

"Fortunately," Qin Su drank his tea, glanced at Emperor Yong Le who had already fallen asleep on the couch, "I'm fine, Eunuch Li should take care of Emperor Father first, don't catch a cold."

Eunuch Li obeyed his orders and went over to ask Emperor Yong Le to go back to his bedroom to rest.

Mi Mi stared and opened his eyes, Emperor Yong Le pinched the center of his brows, "What time is it?"

"Return to Your Majesty, it's time to be ugly."

After moving his stiff arms, Emperor Yong Le looked at Qin Su who was drinking tea, "Is Xun'er finished?"

"After the approval, the minister will return to the palace after drinking tea, and the emperor will also rest earlier."

Qin Su replied, his hand holding the teacup was still shaking.

Emperor Yong Le was supported by Eunuch Li to stand up, "One more thing, Xun'er will get up early tomorrow, and he will go to the court at Maoshi, and Xun'er will go with him, the emperor happened to say that the private visit in Weifu, let Xun'er act as the supervisor I'm afraid those ministers will continue to ramble about the affairs of the country, and they still have to grind."

"What microservice private visit?"

It's been a night for Qin Su, and this is the first time he heard Emperor Yong Le talk about the private visit of Weifu, didn't he just let himself act as Chao Gang's agent for a month?How did it become a state prison?

"Father didn't mention this matter just now?" Emperor Yong Le was clearly sleepy and looked at Eunuch Li suspiciously.

"Your Majesty, you just told the servant that you were going to visit incognito, but you never mentioned it to His Highness." Eunuch Li reminded Emperor Yong Le from the side.

"That's how it is, I'm confused," Emperor Yong Le finally remembered, "Xun'er, when you critiqued the papers just now, Father thought about it. Many years ago, Father said that he wanted to visit Weifu privately, but after so many years , There was no chance at all, and just taking advantage of this opportunity, the father went out to observe the people's situation, find a son to supervise the country, and this matter is settled."

Qin Su supported his forehead, Emperor Yongle's style of acting as soon as he thought about it was unmatched by anyone.

Now that Emperor Yong Le had made a decision on this matter, Qin Su didn't say anything more, and after agreeing, he retired with Emperor Yong Le and returned to Zhengyang Palace.

After returning to Zhengyang Palace, after washing and changing clothes, Qin Su was lying on the bed and was about to fall asleep. His brain suddenly reacted after being too slow. He jumped up from the bed, put on his clothes and rushed out. Chi Shui and others were taken aback.

"What are you doing here, Your Highness?"

"Go to Xuanyin Palace."

Qin Su dropped a sentence without looking back, and Chishui and others hurriedly followed.

Pulling Qin Miao from the bed overnight, Qin Su patted his face and quickly told Qin Miao what happened this afternoon.

"Father wants me to supervise the country!"

Qin Su's words successfully scared Qin Miao's drowsiness away, "What?!"

It happened so suddenly that even Qin Miao was a little stunned. After Qin Su finished explaining the cause and effect, Qin Miao rolled his eyes, "It's a great thing, but it's too sudden. I don't know how the officials will react?"

"That's exactly what I thought of, so I came to discuss with you, but you also know your father's temperament. He said that the wind is the rain, and tomorrow morning, there may be another bloody storm."

Qin Su pressed her temples that were jumping wildly, she could already foresee that tomorrow morning would be comparable to the morning morning in the vegetable market.

"Forget it, this is the end of the matter, the soldiers will come to cover up the water and soil, so let's do it first, anyway, the father will take care of it."

Qin Miao thought about it for a long time and decided not to do anything.

"That's it?"

Qin Su thought that at the very least, he knew that he would visit the General's Mansion, Duke Jin's Mansion and Wei Zikang who were in their camp, right?There will be a response tomorrow morning.

"That's it," Qin Miao nodded, "Actually, whether you know it or not, the result will be the same tomorrow morning. Those who should stand naturally know where they should stand."

After being told by Qin Miao, Qin Su felt relieved. This is not a trivial matter. In such troubled times, only Emperor Yong Le can do the matter of entrusting the princess to supervise the country and going out to visit privately. He should think more about his father. Is the emperor going to have a headache from being nagged by all the officials?

After taking a reassurance pill from Qin Miao, Qin Su returned to Zhengyang Palace and fell asleep. It was really an enviable quality of sleep.

After sleeping for less than two hours, Qin Su was called up at Yinshi. After all, Qin Su needed to wash and dress up when he was going to court.

A palace gown with black border and red background embroidered with gold thread, wearing a golden crown of nine phoenixes on the head, long fringe fringe on the side, and a string of beads hanging down to the end of the hair, very dignified and formal dress, No mistakes.

"Your Highness, in the main hall today, it doesn't matter what the officials say or what the courtiers are arguing about. Your Highness, please restrain your temper and don't do anything."

Chishui put two jade bracelets on Qin Su's wrist, and took a string of beads and put them in Qin Su's hand.

Ever since knowing that Emperor Yong Le wants Qin Su to supervise the country last night, and will bring it up this morning, Chi Shui and others are more nervous than anyone else.

Everyone knows that as far as the pedantic thinking of civil and military officials is concerned, they must have great opinions on this, and it is impossible to agree smoothly, so quarrels are inevitable, and it is inevitable that Qin Su is involved in the quarrel. They are afraid of Qin Su In the hall, everyone couldn't stand listening to them, so they did it on the spot, and those with old arms and legs couldn't support Qin Su's kick.

"When did Bengong become such a violent person? Make a fuss out of a molehill."

Qin Su didn't take it seriously, and glanced at Chishui, completely thinking that Chishui didn't need to worry.

Chi Shui smiled, I hope so.

"Your Highness, this pair of jade bracelets is a birthday present from the Empress this year to you."

When Qin Su entered the palace, Chi Shui reminded him again, I hope that for the sake of the jade bracelet, nothing will happen this morning.

Civil and military officials lined up on both sides, Qin Su entered the hall from the middle, walked through the extremely long hall step by step, and saluted Emperor Yongle.

"The princess is free, and I will give you a seat."

Emperor Yong Le looked at the dignified and generous Qin Su with satisfaction, feeling relieved that there is a young girl in my family who has just grown up.

"Thank you, Father."

Qin Su sat at the head of Emperor Yongle, all the officials were at a loss, they didn't know what was going on, so they had to show Qin Su the first bow, Qin Su nodded to avoid the ceremony.

Emperor Yong Le took a panoramic view of everything, nodded in satisfaction, and got to the point.

"A lot of things have happened recently. There is an incident in the south of the Yangtze River. The people are deeply troubled by it. My heart is very painful. The people of Dayong are rich. In the place where the sky is high and the emperor is far away, I don't know how many Jiangnans, how many government offices in the south of the Yangtze River, and so on. I have been deliberate recently and deeply aware of the importance of private visits. I want to see my country in Dayong with my own eyes and understand the people's sentiments. I must not give this kind of mediocre people any more opportunities to take advantage of it. .”

After Emperor Yong Le finished speaking, all the officials looked at each other in blank dismay, His Majesty is going to visit incognito?

Seeing that the officials didn't respond for a moment, Emperor Yong Le was very satisfied, and said the second thing.

"During my private visit on Weifu, there must be someone in Beijing. The eldest princess has both ability and political integrity, and is worthy of a great responsibility. During my private visit on Weifu, Her Highness the eldest princess will be in charge of supervising the country."

It would take some time for the ministers to react to what Emperor Yong Le said before, but when the latter sentence came out, it would be like water dripping from a hot oil pan, and it would explode immediately.

"Your Majesty, it is absolutely impossible!"

Starting with this sentence, there is a long list of important principles afterwards. Emperor Yong Le and Qin Su tacitly closed their hearing, allowing the officials below to quarrel.

Qin Su glanced over one by one, all the officials were arguing fiercely, but at a glance, there were not many people above the third rank talking, especially Prime Minister Shen, who just came to the court today, even closed his eyes and rested his mind, and did not participate at all into this meaningless quarrel.

Seeing that no one who should say anything responded, the officials who had quarreled for a while automatically silenced.

"Qi Zuo Your Majesty," Wei Zikang was the first to stand up after all the ministers quieted down, "I have no objection. Your Majesty's private visit is a great thing for the benefit of all people. Moreover, His Royal Highness the Eldest Princess is very talented, and the Jiangnan incident can be seen. He will also be qualified for the post of supervising the country."

All the ministers who objected just now looked at Wei Zikang, the first straw in the wall, without any trace. This three-yuan and first-ranked scholar, a rookie in the imperial court who has been promoted several times and is on the rise, it seems that there is no doubt that he is the eldest princess. people.

"My minister agrees."

Another person stood up, and everyone looked over, oh, military officer, the people under the eldest princess' command.

"My minister agrees."

Everyone looked over again, the people from General Yu's mansion.

"My minister agrees."

People from Jin State Duke's Mansion.

"My minister agrees."

Minister of the household department.

……

"My minister agrees."

When it was almost time for everyone to stand up, Prime Minister Shen lowered his head and stood up too, shocking a group of people's jaws.

Has Prime Minister Shen changed his soul?In the past, Prime Minister Shen had always been the first to oppose things that broke the rules of the ancestors and did not conform to the etiquette system, but since the last time he strongly recommended the eldest princess to go to the south of the Yangtze River, it seems that Prime Minister Shen has changed completely, just like this This time, he even agreed to such an outrageous matter as the eldest princess supervising the country.

Although the officials felt that it was outrageous, some people who took Prime Minister Shen as the vane still stood up.

Now the four major families in Beijing, General Yu's Mansion, Prime Minister Shen's Mansion, and Jin Guogong's three major families have stood as the captain princess, and there is only one Yang Guogong's mansion that is declining day by day. Many officials chose to stand out.

More than half of the members of the third rank and above stood out, and this matter has become a certainty.

Even Emperor Yong Le did not expect that this matter would go so smoothly. Of course, he also did not expect that before he knew it, Qin Su had already attracted so many people, although some of these people should also be the second child.

Emperor Yong Le's mood was a bit complicated for a while, but it didn't last long. Thinking that he would be able to escape from the big cage of the imperial palace soon, Emperor Yong Le felt more happy.

"I have objections." Seeing more and more people stepping out, the Minister of the Ministry of Officials stood up, "Your Majesty, there are princes who can also take on this important task. It is impossible for the eldest princess to be a female prisoner. At this time If it gets out, won't the world laugh at it?"

When Qin Su, who was always sitting on a chair like a perfect mascot, heard these words, he squeezed the beads tightly in his hands, and his eyes slowly shifted to the skinny old man, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, who was so cold that he could almost freeze to death.

"Your Majesty, since ancient times, I have only heard that the capable live there, and have never heard of the messy women and men. It is the people's will for the eldest princess to supervise the country. Who is ridiculed? Could it be that the Lord Shangshu is here, out of thin air? Make up words?"

Wei Zikang stood up and refuted.

Qin Su looked away from the Minister of the Ministry of Officials, closed his eyes, and slowly turned the beads in his hands. She knew Chishui's good intentions.
