wise man

Ji Tai closed his eyes, breathing heavily.He pictured the queen's eyes of hatred, and her curses echoed in his ears.After the death of the crown prince, she took off all her disguises, acted like a village woman in front of her, and even rushed forward to beat her up...the majestic queen has lost all her poise.

He didn't want to do what she wanted, he was the one who controlled the world, he was intimidating all the officials in the court, so could it be possible that he could be manipulated by the women in the harem?

This woman made him so upset.If she had Jing Ting half as good, she might have lived a happier life after all these years.

No, there are many women in the harem, none of them are pleasing to his heart, and no one is.

He opened his eyes, looked at Chen Shoushi from the couch, looked at this child who resembled Chen Jingting, those past events emerged from his heart one by one, scattered like sand on the seabed, chaotic and misty.

Chen Shoushi didn't understand what was the deep, sad expression in his eyes. The sadness was not for the prince, but rather like remembering something lost that could never be recovered.

He called anxiously: "Father?"

Ji Tai finally came to his senses: "Shi'er..."

"My son is here."

After a long while: "Is boy Yang really that good? For him, you can give up everything?"

Chen Shoushi was taken aback, not understanding why he mentioned Yang Zhen again at this moment, as if he wanted to talk to him.

"Father, my son lived to be 22 years old. He never knew what love is until he found out that he fell in love with Yang Zhen. That feeling was very strange. In the past, my son always thought that Yang Zhen belonged to me. But Later, Erchen felt that Erchen and Yang Zhen, there was me in you, and you in me, the two seemed to blend together.

"My son can't tell. It's just that, with him, my son feels at ease, satisfied, and happy. As for the renunciation that the emperor said, I don't think I have to give up anything. Fame and wealth in the world, my son I didn't pursue it in the first place, so I can't talk about giving up."

"If you were the emperor, would you give up the country for him?" Ji Tai asked.

Chen Shoushi's heart moved, inexplicably felt that the emperor had replaced himself, as if he was seriously discussing this issue with him, it was so strange.He shook his head: "No."

"Won't?"

"Jiangshan and Yang Zhen, why can't they coexist? He is my beloved and my servant, isn't it the best of both worlds?"

"You understand what I'm asking." Ji Tai's voice was faint.

"Yes, my son understands that what the father means is whether this son can withstand all pressure, not accept the harem, give up his heirs, and only stay with him alone." Chen Shoushi said, "My son's answer is: my son willing."

"Then don't you think that after a hundred years, the country will fall?"

"So what?" Chen Shoushi said, "In ancient times, the emperor's throne was originally abdicated, and the virtuous lived there. Later, it became hereditary. But it is because of hereditary that there have been scenes of brother-in-law and brother-in-law fighting among the royal family for thousands of years. Only when it is staged continuously, only those who are not worthy of virtue will rise to the throne, and become the faint king and tyrant who harm the people..."

Ji Tai looked at him straight, with a deep look in his eyes.Chen Shoushi suddenly turned around: "Father, my son made a slip of the tongue, please forgive me."

Ji Tai waved his hand: "There are only you and my father and son here, you don't have to hide it. I know that if you are a king, you must be a wise king. The world is public, public and selfish, I believe you can do it. It's just that I am not as good as you. ..... I value this country above everything else."

There was emotion in his voice.

Chen Shoushi said: "Since this is the case, the emperor should consider the ministers' request and establish Ye'er as the emperor's grandson earlier."

Ji Tai sneered coldly: "If it is to stabilize the court, I should have fulfilled the wishes of those people and made Ye'er the emperor's grandson. But although I am old, I will not die so soon, why bother to establish the emperor's wife so early?" Sun? They are so anxious, are they looking forward to my early death!" At the end of the speech, he became emotional, and his breath was stuck in his chest, and the veins on his forehead burst from holding back.

Shocked and in pain, Chen Shoushi hurriedly stroked his chest, and said, "Father, please don't say that. It's my son's fault. My son shouldn't disturb father's cultivation. Father, it's important that you take care of your dragon body. "

Ji Tai stretched out his hand to hold Chen Shoushi's hand, patted it lightly, and said, "It's because I want you to review the memorial here, it's not your fault. Come on, let's look at the others."

"Yes."

Chen Shoushi spent the whole morning in Yanqing Palace, Ji Tai told him a lot about the court affairs, if Chen Shoushi hadn't persuaded him, he might have talked with him for a whole day while he was sick.

At noon, Chen Shoushi had dinner with him, served him with soup and medicine, watched him fall asleep, and then went back to Xinhe Palace.

Yang Zhen was reading a book, when he saw Chen Shoushi coming in, he got up and greeted him: "Husband, how is your majesty's dragon body?"

Chen Shoushi had a worried expression on his face: "He is not very well, he keeps talking to me about the government affairs, and he refuses to take a good rest. He seems to be very irritable like that. When the crown prince was here, he didn't share much for him, but he was not in a hurry. ,now......"

Yang Zhen sighed: "Maybe it's because he didn't grasp it well at that time, and now he loses it all at once, and he regrets it, so he is so eager and even panicked. People who are sick are always more fragile." Said. Then, he made tea for Chen Shoushi and brought it to him.

Chen Shoushi took a sip silently.

Yang Zhen said: "I heard from the maid that the second young master came to the palace to see the Empress and Princess Fengyu. He had dinner at Xining Palace at noon, and he also went to pay homage to the crown prince. Husband, we also go to serve the crown prince. Stick incense."

Chen Shoushi put down his teacup, looked up at him and said, "Zhen'er, he hurt you like that, yet you still offer incense for him?"

Yang Zhen said: "The dead are the most important, why should I care too much?"

Chen Shoushi put his hand in the palm of his hand, stroked it lightly, and said, "Zhen'er, you are always so kind. How can I rest assured that you will be alone in Changzhou County from now on? I will let Bo Ling and Xiao Ba accompany you , to protect you, and if anything happens, they can also send a message for you."

Yang Zhen smiled and said, "Do you think I'm still a child? I know martial arts anyway." Suddenly thought of something, "Unfortunately, our combined swordsmanship can only be practiced separately."

Chen Shoushi said: "Without me by your side, you can't be lazy."

Yang Zhen raised the corners of her lips and said mischievously: "Yes, master, this slave is afraid that Bo Ling and Xiao Ba will be your ear gods, how dare you be lazy? You are both a cane and a board, so you can't reward this slave." beat?"

Chen Shoushi was amused by him, pinched his face and said, "You're getting skinny, I'll reward you with a beating right now."

Hearing someone cough, Chen Shoushi turned his head and saw that it was Xiao Ba.

"Your Highness, the Second Young Master is here." Xiaoba said.

Chen Shoushi said: "Okay, I'll go out to meet him."

However, Chen Qifeng went straight into the inner room, and bowed deeply to Chen Shoushi and Yang Zhen: "Little brother has met eldest brother and sister-in-law."

Chen Shoushi said: "Second brother, let's sit outside."

Chen Qifeng said: "No, big brother, little brother has something to say and wants to chat privately with big brother."

Chen Shoushi winked at Xiao Ba, and Xiao Ba retreated quietly.Yang Zhen wanted to leave, but Chen Shoushi held him back, and said to Chen Qifeng: "He is your real sister-in-law, only one wedding is missing. If you have anything to say, you don't have to avoid him."

There was a flash of joy on Chen Qifeng's face, but Chen Shoushi still caught it.His heart skipped a beat, his younger brother was really happy, was he because of Yang Zhen?

"Congratulations, sister-in-law." Chen Qifeng saluted Yang Zhen again.Yang Zhen was a little embarrassed: "Second Young Master, don't..."

Chen Shoushi said: "Zhen'er, you should change your address."

Listening to her man's commanding tone, Yang Zhen had no choice but to say, "Second brother."

The corners of Chen Qifeng's mouth turned up slightly again.

Seeing that Chen Qifeng was still standing, Yang Zhen hurriedly said, "Second Brother, please sit down."

Chen Qifeng looked at his elder brother, but Chen Shoushi didn't signal, Chen Qifeng smiled wryly in his heart, and still stood respectfully.Chen Shoushi asked: "What's the matter with you?"

Chen Qifeng said: "Returning to elder brother, younger brother is entering the palace today, firstly to visit the empress, secondly to see elder brother, younger brother has something to ask elder brother for help."

"Is this related to the palace?"

"Yes."

Chen Shoushi wondered: "You have everything you need in the palace, why do you need to ask me?"

Chen Qifeng lowered his head, with a bit of bitterness in his mouth: "Brother, my younger brother has painstakingly dealt with the queen and the prince, just for..." He swallowed the words, "My younger brother is useless in the heart of my elder brother. , let’s not talk about it.”

Chen Shoushi stood up suddenly, Chen Qifeng took a step back, but Chen Shoushi grabbed his hand.His black eyes were as bright as stars, and he looked straight into his eyes: "Second brother, tell me, last time the prime minister played a book about the crown prince and the uncle of the country, did you leak it?"

"Yes."

"why?"

"There are some things that elder brother can't do, but younger brother will do it for you. Eldest brother is shining brightly in front, why should younger brother be afraid of being the shadow behind? As long as elder brother is safe, successful, and successful, younger brother is willing to give everything for elder brother!"
