Reborn group favorite: The prince and I are enemies

The next day.

Emperor Yuanwu came to court with a pair of dark circles under his eyes. He worked hard to listen to the report from the courtiers. He fell asleep halfway through the report and did not hear clearly what was said below.

When Taifu Liu cautiously asked, "What do you think, Your Majesty?" Emperor Yuanwu woke up from a dream and casually responded, "That's right."

But then, all the ministers knelt down and praised: "Your Majesty is wise!"

Emperor Yuanwu's sleepiness had mostly disappeared, and Eunuch Lu immediately leaned into his ear and whispered: "Your Majesty, Taifu Liu hopes that you and Empress Shu can achieve positive results as soon as possible, and you agreed."

Emperor Yuanwu felt his heart tremble, but his face was very calm. He glanced at the courtiers kneeling on the ground and sighed: "I just don't know if I am that lucky."

The ministers chanted again and again: "Your Majesty's great blessing reaches the sky."

Emperor Yuanwu held his chin and narrowed his eyes: "Dear ladies, do you seem to be quite concerned about my private affairs?"

As a veteran of the court, Liu Taifu had relatively traditional ideas. He could accept Emperor Yuanwu appointing someone else as the crown prince, but he always did not want Emperor Yuanwu to leave even an heir.

Coupled with Concubine Shu's frequent visits to Chengming Hall recently, she naturally thought that His Majesty and his granddaughter had developed a relationship.

Yu Gong, he did not want Emperor Yuanwu to have no heirs.

Privately, he wanted to change his granddaughter's situation of being unfavored in the palace.

Publicly and privately, he wanted to see Emperor Yuan Wu go to the harem more often, so he united with many courtiers and asked the emperor to think about his children and conceive children as soon as possible. Concubine Shu was a very good choice.

The old master thought that his starting point was for Emperor Yuanwu. When faced with the question that Emperor Yuanwu had pointed out, he calmly said: "Your Majesty, I have been loyal to the Qin Dynasty for three dynasties. The sun and the moon can teach me."

"This advice from an old minister is not to interfere in His Majesty's private affairs. It is entirely for Your Majesty's consideration. Please be clear about it."

Emperor Yuanwu yawned and looked languid: "Liu Aiqing even knows that I have summoned Concubine Shu a little more frequently recently, so she should know that my body... is powerless..."

Taifu Liu and his ministers knelt down: "Your Majesty..."

Emperor Yuanwu raised the corners of his lips, interrupting their next words: "Okay, I don't want to hear that nonsense!"

"You people, if you stand and speak without pain in your back and open your mouth, your country will be prosperous, regardless of whether others are in trouble or beyond your capabilities."

"If you have time to focus on me, why don't you do your job well? If you haven't done any serious work, just focus on such trivial things!"

Emperor Yuanwu was kind and cheerful at first, but later on, he spoke more and more urgently: "The Qin Dynasty has no reserve, so you can force me to do anything you can. Now that the reserve position has been determined, whether I will be born or not, when will I be born, what does it have to do with you?" !”

Taifu Liu repeatedly confessed: "Your Majesty, please calm down. I have no selfish motives at all for doing this, and it is entirely for your Majesty's consideration."

"In life, it is always a pity not to have an heir of your own. Your Majesty's health is now stable, so once or twice, it is not expected to have much impact on the body."

Emperor Yuanwu chuckled: "Is Liu Aiqing almost seventy this year?"

Taifu Liu was startled, and then he respectfully replied: "Your Majesty, I am sixty-nine this year."

Emperor Yuanwu's smile deepened: "Liu Aiqing looks very strong. That's good. I will give you eight palace maids, and you will take them home to the court later."

"Taifu Liu is so energetic. There must be no problem if there are ten or eight of them. Go back and work harder and try to have a son when you are old."

Taifu Liu was stunned, and then he showed an incredulous expression, as if he had heard something ridiculous, and he kowtowed again: "Your Majesty, loyal words are hard to hear! Your Majesty may not like to hear what I say, but I wholeheartedly consider your Majesty..."

Emperor Yuanwu picked up the memorial on the desk, threw it in front of Taifu Liu, and said sternly: "If you really care about me, you should think about how to support the people! Share my worries! Instead of leaving a lot of messy things for me to deal with day by day. , Night food and night clothes!”

"I remember that I have never been too harsh on you because of your hard work and merits. However, not only are you ungrateful, but you also don't know how to reflect. You are just getting by and relying on your old age!"

"Since you are occupying the manhole and can't accomplish anything, why not give the opportunity to young people!"

"Feng Xiang!" Emperor Yuanwu shouted.

Mr. Feng, who had been standing by and watching, stepped out from the crowd: "I'm here."

Emperor Yuanwu tapped his fingers on the table, his face filled with anger remained tense: "Look at the atmosphere of the government and the public. You are the head of a hundred officials, and the ministers below are not interested in making progress, so you just let it go?"

"Today they are focusing on my harem. In the future, they may even have to take care of my clothes and food!"

Mr. Feng lowered his head and looked like he knew his mistake: "Your Majesty, please punish me!"

Emperor Yuanwu took a long breath and said: "Don't give me a bad look. What I want is a solution, not an attitude of admitting your mistake. Who can't admit your mistake? The key is to come up with a solution!"

Mr. Feng cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, please make it clear."

Emperor Yuanwu picked up a memorial and smashed it down so hard that all civil and military officials in the court knelt down.

He glanced at everyone with a sharp gaze, and then said: "It's time to straighten out the atmosphere of the government and the public, so as not to keep thinking about something and nothing all day long and forget one's own duties."

"Prime Minister Feng, please note down all the officials who just knelt down to force me to have children, and immediately conduct performance inspections on them, and submit the inspection results to me."

"I will make different punishments based on the results. If you should be dismissed, you should be dismissed, if you should be dismissed, if you should be fined with silver, if you should be warned, no one can escape!"

Emperor Yuanwu stood up slowly: "I hope that all my dear friends will take this as a warning. In the future, you should work conscientiously and put national affairs first in everything. Don't use the tolerance and trust I have given you as capital to do whatever you want!"

"Remember, you are my subjects, not that talkative matchmaker! I give you salary, power, and honor just so that you can share my worries!"

"If you can't do it, then find someone else to do it. Don't think that if you stay in this court for a long time, your butt will grow in that position!"

After Emperor Yuanyuan finished speaking, he waved his hands and left.

Those who were encouraged by Taifu Liu were so frightened that they were sweating profusely, and at the same time they were full of resentment towards Taifu Liu.

The way everyone looked at Taifu Liu could almost burn a hole in Taifu Liu.

Mr. Feng stood up and sighed: "Old Liu, why are you doing this? There are successors in the Qin Dynasty. Why do you insist that your majesty quickly give birth to an heir with the concubine?"

"If Your Majesty gives birth to a little prince, do you still want to ask Your Majesty to depose His Highness the Great Uncle and establish a little prince?"

Taifu Liu did not expect such a result. He felt very aggrieved: "Feng Xiang, you can't say this casually, I can't afford it!"

Mr. Feng smiled: "What I said was all euphemistic. To put it more seriously, you have selfish motives and want your granddaughter to stay with His Majesty. What do you want to do?"

Taifu Liu was startled: "Feng Xiang Mingjian, I don't have any such thoughts. I just hope that your majesty can have a child, so that you will not be lonely."

Mr. Feng shrugged: "I don't believe you when you say you don't have this idea, but others don't think so. If this matter spreads, no one will think that you are dissatisfied with His Highness, so you forced His Majesty to give birth."

"This time you are being taught a lesson by His Majesty. I think you deserve it. You didn't think clearly about such a trivial matter and just opened your mouth. It's strange that Your Majesty isn't angry!"

The officials who were about to be inspected immediately gathered around and asked for advice: "Please give me some advice from Feng Xiang!"

Mr. Feng lowered his voice: "His Majesty reacted this way because he took His Highness into consideration. He wanted everyone in the world to know that the only person in his mind who wanted the throne was His Highness, so he would not have any children with the concubine."

"Besides, it's not like you don't know about His Majesty's body. Your Majesty is right. You just force others to do something difficult. If His Majesty does something bad because of this, who of you will be responsible?"

"In my opinion, you should stop thinking wrongly and prepare quickly to deal with my inspection. You also know that I am a person. I always seek truth from facts, so you can take care of yourself..."

After saying that, Mr. Feng walked out of the Jinluan Palace with his hands behind his back, leaving all the officials at a loss.

Seeing that there was no room for change, everyone naturally directed all their anger at Taifu Liu.

Taifu Liu endured the anger of everyone and couldn't help but murmur in his heart: "As Feng Xiang said, this kind of thing should not be mentioned in the first place. How could he be confused for such a clear question?"

Why can't he figure it out...

It seems that the origin of all this started with receiving a letter from my granddaughter.
