Konoha Hypocrite Uchiha Tonan

Royal Palace.

All the courtiers in the palace know that His Majesty is diligent in political affairs and spends at least six hours every day in the Imperial Study. However, today, Emperor Chen was rare and did not review memorials in the Imperial Study. Instead, he walked in the slightly bleak Imperial Garden. , only the personal eunuch Wei Jian accompanied him.

"I heard that the princess of Changning in Chu State took part in the imperial examination as a boy. At the age of 17, she passed the three-level exam. She was also good at both civil and military arts. Although she was born as a girl, it is rare for a man in the world to do so." His gaze Looking into the distance, he said: "Her style even surpasses that of her father. The royal family of Chu State is really full of talents."

Wei Jian said with a smile: "Your Majesty has forgotten that there are two number one scholars in our dynasty who have reached the third place. Master Fang and Master Tang both became famous at a young age. They are not far behind Princess Changning."

"I'm talking about the royal family." Emperor Chen looked away and said, "Prince Duan and Prince Kang only know how to fight for power and gain, with mediocre abilities and no sense of responsibility. How can I leave the country in their hands in the future?"

Wei Jian chuckled and said: "Your Majesty is in good health. This country can at least continue in your hands for several decades. The two princes are still young and will eventually change..."

"Everyone is tired after sitting on the throne for a long time..." Huang Chen sighed and asked: "My original intention was to let them compete with each other and grow up with each other. I never thought that they would only focus on the power in front of them. What's more, He actually reached out to the national treasury..."

Chen Huang gritted his teeth and said with some hatred: "It would be fine if he admitted it openly and openly. As a hero, he should have such courage, but he doesn't even dare to admit it. I am extremely disappointed in him..."

Wei Jian followed Emperor Chen, bowing his head and saying nothing.

"One person has no courage, and one person gets carried away once he gains power and forms a large number of cliques. Are there too many tricks for the Yushitai to impeach the powerful people in the capital these days?" As Chen Huang spoke, his breathing became heavier and he slapped his hands. On the stone table in the pavilion, he said angrily: "I'm not dead yet, what are they all fighting for!"

Wei Jian hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, calm down, calm down..."

After a while, Chen Huang's breathing returned to calmness and he asked, "What is Man'er doing these days?"

Wei Jiandao: "Her Royal Highness the Princess has been accompanied by Princess Anyang these days and has traveled to many places in the capital..."

Pingyang Princess Mansion.

Zhao Man looked at Princess Anyang and said ostentatiously: "Sister Anyang, have you ever fished? I went fishing yesterday and caught a lot..."

"No..." Princess Anyang shook her head. The ladies of the capital had their own ways of entertainment, and things like fishing were obviously not among them.

She looked at Zhao Man and suddenly asked: "Who did sister Pingyang go with?"

"With Tangning." Thinking of what happened yesterday, Zhao Man's eyes turned into crescent moons and she said, "He is so stupid. We had a fishing competition yesterday and he didn't catch a single fish..."

Princess Anyang looked at her with a slightly strange look in her eyes, thought for a moment, and said: "Master Tang is a third-level official. He is one of the most intelligent people in the world and has unparalleled strategies. Sister, if you don't want to marry to Chu State, why don't you let me marry you?" He helps you, maybe he has a way to prevent you from getting married?"

Zhao Man smiled and said: "Regarding the diplomatic relations between the two countries, something that both the father and the court officials agree to, what can he do..."

Princess Anyang looked at her and said, "It's possible."

Zhao Man shook his head and said: "This is a major matter related to the diplomatic relations between the two countries. If he objects, your Majesty will not tolerate him, and the court will not tolerate him either..."

She looked at Princess Anyang and said: "Actually, I have figured it out these days. I am a princess. It is my destiny to be born in the royal family. It is also my destiny to marry into the Chu Kingdom..."

Princess Anyang looked at her as if she were a stranger.

The Pingyang sister who had grown up with her and whom she was no longer familiar with seemed to be no longer the little girl who was born in a deep palace and whose mind was as blank as a piece of paper.

She looked away and said, "Actually, your Majesty loves you very much, but the diplomatic relations between the two countries are serious, and your Majesty must also put state affairs first."

Zhao Man nodded and said, "I don't blame my father."

The two sisters talked for a while in the mansion, and then Princess Anyang stood up to leave.

Zhao Man walked her to the door. Princess Anyang suddenly looked at her and asked, "I am going to Chu State soon. I must be very reluctant to leave him, right?"

Zhao Man shook his head and said, "You'll be fine if you get used to it."

"I haven't said who that person is yet." Princess Anyang looked at her and asked, "Who is my sister talking about?"

Zhao Man froze in place, biting her lips and wringing her hands together.

……

"Hey, who is here?" Su Mei was sitting behind a pile of papers in Tiantian Residence. She looked at Tang Ning who walked in from the door and said, "Long time no see. You seem to have grown taller..."

Before Tang Ning could get closer, a resentful aura hit her face.

He didn't come to Tianju very much these days, mainly after going to the Yamen. Apart from accompanying Xiao Ruxiaoyi, he spent the rest of the time thinking of ways to make Zhao Man happy. In the last few days, as a friend, he hoped to leave her a happy life. memories.

Tangning looked at her and explained, "I've been here twice, but you weren't here..."

Su Mei glanced at him: "Are you here to see your mother or me?"

"Is there a difference?"

"do not have it?"

The two of them stared at each other, but Tangning couldn't stare at her charming eyes, so she looked away and said, "I came to see you today."

A moment later, Su Mei was lying on the bed, and Tang Ning was sitting beside the bed, asking casually, "The Crown Prince of Chu has asked to marry Princess Pingyang. Do you know about this?"

Su Mei curled her lips and said, "Everyone in the capital knows about this matter, and you underestimate us too much."

Tang Ning asked casually, "Do you know what the prince of Chu's temperament is like?"

Su Mei opened her eyes and asked, "Why do you ask this?"

Tangning explained: "I'm just curious, so I asked casually."

Su Mei thought for a while and said: "Luxury, extravagance, absurdity and immorality are far inferior to those of King Kang and King Duan. He has no influence in the court of Chu State. Even many people and officials in Chu State believe that Emperor Chu The crown prince should be abolished and the throne should be passed on to his younger brother King Xin------you now know what his character is like, right?"

Tangning was stunned. He didn't know much about the affairs of the Chu Kingdom, otherwise he wouldn't have known about Li Tianlan's identity as princess until now. He didn't even know that the prince of Chu's character was actually worse than that of King Kang and King Duan.

That's really bad.

If that's the case, wouldn't Zhao Yingying just jump into a pit of fire by marrying her?

Su Mei sat up from the bed, looked at him and asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Tangning came to her senses and said hurriedly: "It's nothing."

Su Mei looked at him and said, "You are thinking about other women."

"..."

Never underestimate a woman's intuition, let alone think about another woman in front of a woman, otherwise she will be like Tang Ning, who got tapped on her sleeping hole, rolled up under the quilt, and rolled to the corner of the bed, and just became a thoughtless person. medicine man.

……

King Kang's Mansion.

Prince Kang sat on the main seat and murmured: "Who knows whether Princess Changning is tall or short, beautiful or ugly? If I marry her, my wife cannot be someone else..."

A middle-aged man beside him said hurriedly: "Your Highness, it is time for Chen and Chu to re-establish close diplomatic relations. No matter whether the princess of Changning is tall or short, beautiful or ugly, marrying her will be a big deal to you." There are benefits…”

King Kang nodded, and when he was about to speak again, someone walked in quickly from outside the door.

"Your Highness, Mr. Xu from the Ministry of Punishment has sent a letter."

King Kang took the letter, read it, and said, "The Marquis of Jingbian has occupied the people's land, and the son of Ping'an has defiled a good family... What are all this?"

The servant immediately said: "Shilang Xu, please give me your instructions on what should be done with these cases..."

"I told him to let him take care of it!" King Kang patted the table and said, "Their punishment department is full of food. Why are there so many chores recently..."

Xu Cheng, the Minister of Punishment, looked at the stack of files on the table and said in surprise: "It's strange. Why are there so many cases in Prince Kang's area recently..."

A head of the Criminal Department looked at him and asked, "Sir, what should we do?"

"What else can be done?" Xu Cheng waved his hand and said, "Suppress them all."

He pushed the files aside, stood up, and murmured: "It's time to restrain the powerful people on King Kang's side..."
