This first emperor is awesome

"Now that the imperial decree is below, His Majesty will not change it overnight."

"Princess's entry into the palace is nothing but worrying."

"The princess has accepted the kindness for her father, so there is no need to plead with His Majesty anymore."

"I haven't had a good life for a few years. I have been in the officialdom for a lifetime, and I have experienced a halberd-bearer, but it has a special flavor."

Li Si quickly shook his head and said.

"Why did the father-in-law be convicted?"

Ying Manman was very puzzled. From her point of view, her father-in-law was steadfast and loyal. He did his best for the Great Qin and devoted his whole life to the empire.

According to common sense, he shouldn't be condemned by his father like this.

"Princess, see for yourself!"

Li Si smiled wryly, and handed the imperial decree to Ying Siman.

Ying Manman took the imperial decree and started to read it. After reading it, she was even more confused: "The imperial father's imperial decree is full of clouds and fog, and it is really unpredictable."

Li Si sighed and said, "I'm old and useless. Naturally, the power in the court should be reserved for useful young people."

Ying Siman suddenly realized that it was so.

"Father loves Eldest Sister very much, I will go find Eldest Sister."

Ying Manman took Li Xun's little hand directly, and left Li's mansion in a hurry.

Seeing Ying Manman's leaving figure, Li Si's originally melancholy and lonely expression gradually became gloomy.

I haven't lost everything yet, Feng Piff, you won't be proud for long.

I, Li Si, can be abandoned by His Majesty, but you, old man Feng, can't do what you want...

Chapter 50 I have never been a loving father but a cold-blooded king

"Your Majesty, Princess Huayang and Princess Huating are asking to see you."

In the Palace of Pingtian, Ying Zheng was resting on Song Xian's leg with his eyes closed.

Song Xian kneaded Ying Zheng's temples very gently, with an extremely tender look.

Zhao Zhong walked in and whispered.

But Ying Zheng seemed to be asleep and didn't respond at all.

Zhao Zhong couldn't help turning his eyes to Mrs. Song for help.

Song Xian shook his head lightly, and continued to concentrate on massaging His Majesty.

Zhao Zhong immediately comprehended, cupped his hands, and then left again.

After seeing Zhao Zhong leave, Song Xian just whispered: "Why didn't Your Majesty see the two princesses?"

"I know that you are about the same age as Yuan Man and the others, and have a close relationship with each other, but you should not get involved in this matter."

Ying Zheng still closed his eyes tightly and spoke lazily.

"Chen and concubine dare not."

Song Xian smiled wryly.

"Yuanman is wading into this muddy water because he cares about the family relationship. If you have a chance, please enlighten them for me."

Ying Zheng pondered for a while, but he still spoke.

"Your Majesty still has the feeling of licking the calf in his heart. Why does he always put on a cold and heartless look? Why don't you meet the princess in person and enlighten him?"

Song Xian is very puzzled, he has been in the palace for many years, His Majesty has been secretly paying attention to each child, taking good care of them.

But on the surface, among dozens of children, none of them dared to get close to His Majesty.

Every time I see His Majesty, those sons and princesses, it's like a mouse seeing a cat.

Between father and son, father and daughter, why should it go to such a point?

"National affairs are selfless, I am the father of the king, there is nothing to explain."

Ying Zheng turned over and sat up, slowly opened his eyes, and said with a serious expression.

"But His Majesty is also a father after all, why can't he have family happiness?"

Song Xian knew that the man in front of him always resisted everything by himself and never opened his heart to others.

Even family members and children are no exception.

In the eyes of everyone, he is a god in the world, aloof and inviolable.

But Song Xian knew that His Majesty was a person who was cold on the outside and hot on the inside.

No matter to his ministers or relatives, he is extremely generous.

"Family fun? Ha! Ha! Ha!"

"I don't know what family happiness is. I only know that the empire will never finish dealing with state affairs, and I need you not to slack off."

"I have never been a loving father, I can only be a cold-blooded king."

"For the sake of the great Qin Empire, who can sacrifice, including me."

"They are members of the royal family. They have enjoyed the glory of the world since they were young. Naturally, they have to shoulder their responsibilities."

"For the Great Qin Empire, they sacrificed their youth, why didn't I dedicate my whole life?"

Ying Zheng looked at Song Xian with a calm expression.

"Everything your majesty said is reasonable, but the law is determined by your majesty, why can't you just show mercy outside the law for your own daughter?"

"Your Majesty directly dismissed Li Si's official position and took Li Si's title, which is beyond reproach."

"However, His Majesty asked Li Si, who is nearly seventy years old, to guard the Xianyang City Pass. If Li Si had an accident because of this, how would Princess Huating gain a foothold in the Li family?"

Song Xian remonstrated.

Ying Zheng stared at Song Xian, sized him up for a long time, and then said: "Did Yuan Man and Si Man look for you?"

"The concubine dare not deceive the emperor, the two princesses have indeed sought out the concubine."

Song Xian said frankly that nothing can be hidden from His Majesty.

As soon as I asked for mercy, His Majesty guessed everything.

"I'm tired, back off!"

Ying Zheng waved his hands.

"Your Majesty, Princess Huating is also in a difficult situation!"

Song Xian was entrusted by others, so he could only bite the bullet and say.

"I let you back down."

Ying Zheng didn't seem to want to get entangled in this issue at all, so he said coldly.

Song Xian's heart sank, she was very disturbed deep in her heart, but she didn't want to just give up.

I could only suppress the fear in my heart, knelt down and said: "Your Majesty... I beg Your Majesty to show compassion to the princess!"

"Okay!"

"I really didn't see it, but you are a heroine, and your courage is commendable."

Ying Zheng looked at Song Xian who was kneeling in front of him, and smiled dumbly.

"The concubine just doesn't want His Majesty and the princess to separate themselves from father and daughter."

Song Xian sighed in his heart.

"Do you think that if I make Gong Ziyu the crown prince, you can be proud of being favored and have nothing to fear?"

Ying Zheng asked with a smile.

Song Xian's expression changed, what His Majesty said was not serious.

Although His Majesty was laughing, Song Xian felt that these words made people shiver.

"Concubine, I have absolutely no such intentions, let alone such courage, please learn from your Majesty."

Song Xian quickly opened his mouth to explain.

"I can establish a prince, but I can also abolish him at any time."

"As I said, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics."

Ying Zheng said indifferently.

"The concubine did not interfere with the government. His Majesty took pity on him and let the concubine take charge of the harem. The affairs of the prince and princess are royal family affairs, and they are all under the jurisdiction of the concubine."

Song Xian argues with reason.

"Then I will give you a chance. If you still want to intercede for Mao Man, I want you to pardon Li Si."

"I can promise you, but I will abolish the crown prince, do you want to continue pleading?"

Ying Zheng stared at Song Xiandao with a serious expression.

Song Xian's heart trembled, he was slightly taken aback, and immediately said: "Gong Ziyu is young, and in the position of crown prince, his virtue and ability are not worthy of his honor."

"In terms of virtue and talent, the eldest son Fu Suxian is famous all over the world. In terms of seniority and orderliness, Gong Ziyu is the youngest of His Majesty's 24 sons."

"The concubine is bold, please Your Majesty abolish the crown prince, and appoint the eldest son as the crown prince, so as to reassure the hearts of the world."

"The princess has already sacrificed herself for the royal family, how can Your Majesty have the heart to break their hearts again?"

Song Xian pleaded with a sincere look on his face.

"It does have the vigor of the virtuous empress dowagers of the Great Qin Empire. Get up!"

Regardless of whether Song Xian is sincere or not, just relying on this courage, there is indeed something extraordinary.

Ying Zheng smiled and praised Song Xian.

"Did Your Majesty agree to pardon Li Si?"

Song Xian said with a look of surprise.

"I don't need to talk about this matter anymore. I punished Li Si for my own purpose. If I want him to die, why bother to use so many means? How dare he survive with a piece of edict?"

Ying Zheng looked at the persistent Song Xian and said deeply.

When Song Xian heard this, he immediately thought of everything.

"Your Majesty has worked hard, but my concubine is too worried."

Song Xian stood up, already faintly guessing in his heart.

"Okay, let's go back! I still have to deal with state affairs, so don't make trouble for me."

Ying Zheng picked up a memorial and read it, a little reproached.

"Which sister is your majesty going to announce tonight? The concubine is calling for your majesty? The concubine heard that your majesty likes that sister Yunshang very much. Do you want to call for sister Yunshang tonight?"

Song Xian looked at Ying Zhengdao resentfully.

Forehead!

Ying Zheng paused, looking at Song Xian's resentful gaze, he couldn't laugh or cry.

Is this jealous?

"You go back and prepare! After I finish handling the state affairs, I will go to your Oasis Palace."

Ying Zheng smiled.

"The concubine is waiting for the holy driver, Your Majesty is not allowed to deceive the concubine."

Song Xian showed the attitude of a little daughter, winking and saying.

"You have no jokes."

Ying Zheng said with a straight face.

"Chen and concubine retire."

Song Xian bowed his hands together as if he had taken a reassurance.
