Reborn to abuse the scumbag, the demon queen destroyed her ex-husband's entire family

Emperor Dalong was very satisfied with Minister Yang's method. He nodded involuntarily and looked at Minister Yang with admiration in his eyes. If this method could select the final candidate for the crown prince, he would have done his duty to Dalong and to his yellow robe. He only hoped that he could make amends in the end before it was too late.

"Then let's follow Minister Yang's plan. I will call all the princes to the court tomorrow."

Minister Yang immediately stood up and bowed.

"The Holy One is wise."

Minister Yang breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Emperor Dalong was not so resolute and was able to listen to advice, so things were not too bad.

Emperor Dalong waved his hand, motioning Minister Yang to sit down. The latter immediately understood that Emperor Dalong still had something to say, so he sat down obediently.

"But tomorrow, I will need Minister Yang to help me keep an eye on Mu Bo."

"Your Majesty, please rest assured. This is my duty."

After Minister Yang said this, Emperor Dalong finally felt relieved.

"That's good..."

Minister Yang nodded and slowly stood up.

"Your Majesty, I will take my leave now."

Emperor Dalong sighed and nodded. He was now filled with melancholy. In the end, he still couldn't figure out why the prince he had cultivated with all his heart ended up growing up like this. Although he knew that asking this question was not in line with the boundaries between the monarch and his subjects, Emperor Dalong didn't know who to talk to.

Just as Minister Yang was slowly preparing to leave the hall, Emperor Dalong called out to him.

"Minister Yang, can you talk to me after work?"

The Dalong Emperor did not refer to himself as "I", but as "I", and Yang Shilang naturally understood the intention. Dalongdi was not going to talk to him from the perspective of an emperor, but to have a good chat as old friends.

Minister Yang did not say anything, but tacitly agreed. He turned around and walked back to sit in front of Emperor Dalong.

Seeing this, Emperor Dalong also had a faint smile on his face, and then he made tea himself.

"Jianshan, how many years have we known each other?"

Minister Yang had never really calculated all this carefully. He is fifty-four years old this year, and they had known each other when they were children. At that time, their two families were old friends, so naturally they became good friends. Minister Yang lowered his head and thought for a while before looking up.

"It should be about... forty years?"

Emperor Dalong chuckled, but his voice was full of vicissitudes and nostalgia for the past.

"Forty-six years."

Minister Yang couldn't help but sigh that life just passes by in a flash.

"Brother Mu has a good memory, but he forgets it when he sees the mountain."

The two men smiled at each other, then raised their teacups and drank from them, but before they knew it, bitterness appeared on Emperor Dalong's face.

"I fought on the battlefield, and led many brave men who followed me to bring down the tyranny of the previous dynasty. My life can be considered wonderful. I was able to handle the court with ease, but why did it happen..."

Emperor Dalong choked up involuntarily and was unable to continue.

"How could it be that you can't even teach your own children when you are old?"

Emperor Dalong raised his eyes and took a deep look at Minister Yang in front of him, and felt that it was true that those who know me well can see the mountain.

"Is it because I wasn't good enough to Mu Bo? He looks so much like me, and I trained him as a monarch?"

Emperor Dalong couldn't understand.

Minister Yang is also the father of several children, and all of them are kind to each other, and their brothers are friendly and respectful to each other. But he no longer has brothers, and his favorite child is so disobedient to him and so incompetent.

"No, Brother Mu, it's not that you're not good enough to Mu Bo, it's that you're doting on him too much."

Emperor Dalong didn't understand.

"But for children, shouldn't we use love soon?"

"It is love, but it should not be doting. If you divide some of that love for your other princes and princesses, Mu Bai will not become like this. The brothers who are friendly and respectful to each other, and the fathers who are kind and the sons who are filial to each other that Brother Mu wants to see will naturally appear before our eyes."

Emperor Dalong seemed to have understood, but he also understood that it was too late to do those things. He sighed softly, knowing that he would still have regrets in the end.

"I understand. Thank you for telling me so much, Jianshan."

The two of them said goodbye, and as for the final outcome, that would be a matter for later.

……

After leaving the palace, Minister Yang did not go back home directly, but went to Mu Gu's house. As for why he went there at this time, it was very simple. Since he already knew that Emperor Dalong would summon all the princes to the court tomorrow to solve the problems, and since he had chosen to support Mu Gu, he naturally had to help him to the end. He planned to inform Mu Gu in advance so that he could be prepared.

When he was invited to the hall, it was empty. Minister Yang was not sure whether Mu Gu had fallen asleep, but he had to inform him of this matter today anyway.

Unexpectedly, not only Mu Gu came to see him, but Xiao Ruge also came.

"Brother Yang seems surprised?"

After drinking together at the party, Minister Yang and Mu Gu became friends regardless of age difference, and their relationship became much closer. Although Minister Yang was an old friend of Emperor Dalong and should be called uncle, the two of them had a great time talking and did not care about the seniority and simply called each other brothers.

"I didn't expect that the Seventh Prince and his wife would still be awake at this time. It was as if they were waiting for me to come."

Mu Gu laughed out loud, then responded.

"Yes, Xiao Yuer and I observed the stars at night and calculated that there would be a distinguished guest visiting tonight. Isn't this what we calculated correctly?"

Minister Yang also smiled and waved his hands, but he felt that Mu Gu couldn't see it, and was actually quite good at making jokes.

"Okay, let's get down to business, Seventh Prince, Emperor Dalong is here to see me today."

When it comes to Emperor Dalong, Mu Gu and Xiao Ruge become serious.

"How to say it?"

"You must seize this opportunity. Tomorrow will be your chance to bring Mu Bo down."

Hearing this, Mu Gu immediately focused his attention.

"What? Does the Dalong Emperor really intend to abolish Mu Bo?"

Minister Yang did not deny it.

"She didn't say it explicitly, but she definitely wanted to give up on Mu Bo."

When Mu Gu heard this, he couldn't help but become a little excited, and even the hand that was holding Xiao Ruge began to tremble slightly.

"Brother Yang, tell me in detail."

"Tomorrow, Emperor Dalong will summon all of you princes to court."

"He will give you a difficult problem to solve the recent problem of the empty treasury."

Xiao Ruge reacted quickly and immediately thought of what Minister Yang had just said, that Emperor Dalong had summoned him today.

"Brother Yang, did Emperor Dalong come to discuss this problem with you?"

Minister Yang looked at Xiao Ruge with surprise and couldn't help but sigh.

"Ruge is indeed very smart. That's why I knew this in advance and came here to tell you."
