"Sir, what do you think of Ah Yuan's qualifications?"

The emperor had already asked him a question, and Gu Shenxing could no longer pretend to be deaf and dumb.After pondering for a while, Gu Shenxing answered carefully, "Smart and wise, beautiful jade can be carved."

Zhao Jing had an expression that suited me, and then asked: "Then what do you think when A Yuan is younger than me?"

Now that you have opened your mouth, it doesn't matter if you say it in the end.Gu Shenxing looked at His Majesty the Emperor with a smile, as if they were just idle, drinking tea and chatting, "Your Majesty wants the minister to tell the truth?"

"Naturally! Please speak freely, sir."

"Well, don't be angry, Your Majesty." Gu Shenxing looked at Zhao Jing like a fox with a narrow smile on his face, "I think that King Guangling's qualifications are not inferior to your Majesty's when he was younger, but his experience is not enough."

"Oh?" I'm afraid that being inferior probably means being superior.Zhao Jing's brows that had been frowned all day finally broke into a smile. "Then Mr. Lao has to take care of it these few days. There is an urgent matter: before February is over, I want to crown A Yuan as soon as possible."

In late February of the eighth year of Jinghe, Zhao Yanzhi, the king of Guangling, performed the crowning ceremony.

In March, King Guangling opened his mansion and moved out of Guangming Palace.His Majesty the Emperor pitied him for his young age, and granted permission to stay in Beijing, so he did not have to return to his fief for the time being.

In May, Zhao Yanzhi, the king of Guangling, was canonized as the prince, and he will enter the court to listen to the government immediately.Xie Xiang's eldest son, Xie Qing, was young and talented, and was called a doctor.

At this point, the position of crown prince, which had been vacant since Zhao Jing succeeded to the throne, was finally settled.

Immediately afterwards, something even more sensational happened in the court than the present crown prince: the position of Da Sima, who had been vacant for so many years, finally had the owner—Gu Shenxing, the head of the Gu family who had been ignoring political affairs for many years, returned to the temple and was reinstated as Da Sima. Lead the book.

It has to be said that Gu Shenxing's re-emergence is obviously a bigger blow to everyone who covets the crown prince than Zhao Yan who has to be the crown prince.Astute people immediately discovered that if the crown prince's status is unstable, His Majesty the emperor will not give up. The crown prince and Taifu are among the three princes, holding the military power and controlling the court.So what if there is no other family to rely on, the Gu family should not be underestimated, let alone now that Gu Shenxing is back.

Gu Shenxing has stayed out of the world for nearly 30 years.But all the old ministers and workers in the court still remember that when Gu Shenxing was the chief minister, he was low-key, courteous and gentle.However, no one is really stupid enough not to know that being low-key and soft does not make the three armies die, and the four barbarians obey.

His majesty the emperor's wishful thinking was in full swing, but the rightful lord Zhao Yanzhi over there was a little bit picky.Entering the court to listen to the government, getting up early and being greedy at night, how can it not be hard work?Even if there is no court meeting, you still have to get up early and late to learn how to govern with your father.His Royal Highness the Crown Prince insisted on it for only three days, and his eyes were black and blue; he wanted to have a good time with his father and rest for two days, but Zhao Jing sternly refuted him.Then His Majesty the Emperor said that unless the mountains and rivers are exhausted, no matter if it is windy or rainy, you will have a headache and brain fever, and you have to climb up to the court hall even if you climb.

Zhao Yanzhi, who has been pampered and pampered all these years, doesn't understand why his father who has always loved him has become so strict all of a sudden, and his heart is really sad.

Xie Qing has an exquisite heart with seven apertures, but he can see it more clearly than anyone else.He had long seen that according to His Majesty's differential treatment, Zhao Yanzhi's life would be at risk if he was not at the top of power in the future, and none of his elder brothers was a fuel-efficient lamp, and all of them would regard him as a thorn in the side.Of course, there is also the king of Qi, Zhao Xiaocheng, who is kind and kind by nature.But the problem is that King Qi's avoidance of the world at a young age is even worse than that of Gu Shenxing back then, and he has been in a state of wanting to ride the wind all year round; It is estimated that it is almost time to change hands.

Xie Qing knew it in his heart, but he refused to talk to Zhao Yanzhi; he always felt that A Yuan was still a child, and a child's pure heart should not touch such nonsense.Therefore, seeing Zhao Yan only reluctantly going to the court to listen to the government every day due to his father's lust, and his efficiency is not much better than that of dawdling, Xie Qing anxiously can only coax him to order something, and then go to the court silently. On the one hand, go to hell.

In August, Dr. Xie Qing was extremely talented and could be of great use, and was promoted to a senior doctor.

Since then, Xie Qing has also lived a life of getting up early every day and entering the court at night to discuss matters.And Zhao Yanzhi also quickly became enlightened, doing things much more happily than before, making great progress, the emperor's heart is very comforting.

No one saw Gu Shenxing secretly smiling like an old fox with complacency.Therefore, ginger is still old and spicy, and you have to hit seven inches to beat a snake.

When the winter snow first fell, Zhao Yanzhi celebrated his 13th birthday.Immediately afterwards, Zhao Yanzhi's wedding was put on the agenda.

When Zhao Jing mentioned to Zhao Yanzhi that he wanted to marry him, Zhao Yanzhi's mind went blank for a moment, and then he subconsciously prepared to refute, but found that he was stuttering at all. "Father, father, father" didn't say a second word for a long time, and then Zhao Jing threw him out with a big wave of his hand.

A lifelong event, the life of parents.What's more, life and death are at stake, how could Zhao Jing allow him to have room to refute.

Zhao Yanzhi somehow remembered that when he was eight years old, his father hugged him and jokingly asked him if he wanted the beautiful maid by his side to be a concubine.He asked his father what a concubine was, and his father told him very "purely" that if nothing else happened, she would be someone who would spend the rest of his life with him.He tilted his head and thought for a while, then said, Ah Yuan wants to marry Ah Qing.

Everyone burst into tears with laughter, Xie Qing, who was "molested" tragically, was funny and embarrassed.

It was sunny after the snow, and the sun shone on the white snow very glaringly. Zhao Yanzhi was caught off guard and almost shed tears.He thought, being stabbed by this light, he felt really sad.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, the Son of Heaven will definitely choose a lady from a famous family with both talents and looks for His Highness." Zhao Yanzhi didn't get a chance to cry, and was gagged by Gu Shenxing's words. "Your Highness has performed the coronation ceremony, and you are an adult. You can't just say it's too early to get married at this time."

This road is also blocked.

Zhao Yan only held a sliver of hope, hoping that the solar energy would come out from the west, and that the husband could persuade his father to take back his life, so although his heart was itching with hatred, he still looked at Gu Shenxing with a mournful expression.But after Gu Shenxing finished speaking, he closed his eyes and meditated.

Xie Qing gently persuaded: "Mr. is right. Your Highness is getting older, so it's time to get married early."

Zhao Yanzhi's unreasonable resistance and unreasonable unwillingness to get married seemed to have found an outlet when Xie Qing spoke to persuade him, but his loneliness and sadness seemed to be magnified countless times.He couldn't tell what it was like, anyway, after hearing what Xie Qing said, Zhao Yanzhi felt even more uncomfortable.He asked Xie Qing coldly: "Ah Qing also thinks the same?"

Zhao Yan has only been friends with Xie Qing since he was a child, and he never used this tone when he was the most stupid, Xie Qing couldn't help being stunned.

"Your Highness," Gu Shenxing, who was pretending to be deaf and dumb at the side, opened his mouth, but he said something irrelevant. Respect a little. Your Highness is different from Da Zhong Dafu Jun Chen, even if Your Highness refuses to say thank you doctor, you should still call it Biao Zi."

Zhao Yanzhi wanted to question Xie Qing but didn't know what to say, wanted to justify that he didn't mean any disrespect to Xie Qingjue, but was disturbed by Gu Shenxing, and didn't know what to say.

Zhao Yanzhi was quite frustrated and felt that "it is not suitable to speak" must be written in today's almanac.

He was down, but Xie Qing had already sorted out his thoughts and began to explain to him the interests he thought he could accept: "Your Highness does not have a mother family to rely on, so the wife's family is especially important. If your Highness gets married one day earlier, the status will be higher." It can be stabilized sooner."

"I don't want to be a prince!" Zhao Yanyi finally uttered the first complete sentence today, "I don't care if my status is stable or not. Whoever wants to be a prince can take it!"

"Nonsense!" Gu Shenxing sternly reprimanded Zhao Yanzhi, and Zhao Yanzhi's arrogance suddenly became less arrogant, "Did you not do the prince if you said no? Who taught you to say this? No king, no father!"

"What? Feel wronged?" Gu Shenxing sneered, "Ah Yuan, if you don't become a great treasure after hundreds of years now, those good brothers of yours will never allow you to live another day. Then you will go underground again. Go ahead and say such ignorant words!"

"Sir!" Xie Qing hurriedly interrupted him regardless of etiquette, "Ah Yuan is still young, why are you telling him these things?"

"Small? God spoiled him too much, so he spoiled him like this, so don't mess with him." Gu Shenxing, who was always gentle and gentle on weekdays, became strict and imposing, "Why did the emperor crown him? After crowning Even an adult can discuss politics, and he has no other choice! Dazhou does not need a childish prince, let alone a childish emperor!"

Xie Qing sighed, the conversation has already reached this point, there is absolutely no way to stop.He had no choice but to take Gu Shenxing's words, and said in a persuasive manner: "The emperor spoils you too much, the tree is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it." Xie Qing paused, "The emperor is afraid that once a certain elder brother of yours comes to the throne in a hundred years, he will not be able to marry you." It’s not good for you, um, it’s really for your sake to make you the crown prince. But you have to live up to it, don’t you? How about this great country?”

Zhao Yanzhi is so smart, even if he has been overprotected by his father and Xie Qing all these years, he immediately understands the stakes.He gritted his lips and said nothing, but in fact, most of his heart had already compromised.Born in an emperor's family, it is normal for his flesh and blood to quarrel. He has never heard many stories like this.

"Since your Highness understands, don't be reluctant. You can only protect the people around you if you protect yourself." Gu Shenxing glanced at Xie Qing, adding the last fire to Zhao Yanzhi.
