My ancient leisure life
Chapter 68
Cheng Ge followed an eunuch to the high platform where the emperor was, "Caomin, kowtow to the emperor."
"Pingshen." The emperor had a smile on his face, it was a great blessing to have such a brave man.
"Cheng Ge" the fifth prince sitting not far away exclaimed, "Why are you?"
A group of concubines and ministers on the high platform were carefully measuring Cheng Ge, to see who was the master who could easily shoot down two lanterns at once.
Interrupted by the sound of the fifth prince, they all looked at the fifth prince. This person was known to the fifth prince. No wonder he has such force, otherwise he would not be in the eyes of the superior prince.
Cheng Ge heard the emperor's "flat body." He immediately got up and raised his eyebrows, without looking at the fifth prince.
"Cheng Ge." The emperor couldn't help repeating.
"He is the one who escorted Zhao Shilang back to Beijing." The prince reminded the emperor in a low voice.
"Oh." The emperor nodded, thinking of Cheng Ge.
As soon as he was about to speak, Concubine Chun preempted him, "The emperor's promise is not easy to get. You have to weigh your own status first. If you want a high official and rich salary, it is just wishful thinking."
She looked at the emperor with a full smile, and said with a coquettish smile: "Your Majesty, the world knows that the Emperor is a man of trustworthiness, but the concubines are very worried. If the promise you ask for is not worthy of virtue, what will happen."
"It's just a grassroots person, with an identity low in the dust." Concubine Chun said mockingly, "Cheng Ge, you have to think about it, don't be too greedy, you'd better give up the idea of stepping into the court, and ask for some money to find a way out." That's all about being rich."
"Your Majesty, you are a Mingjun." Concubine Chun said: "I will not grant your request easily, everything depends on whether it is in line with your status and whether the request is reasonable."
The meaning of Concubine Chun's words is just to get some money, don't ask too much for mediocre people.At the same time, it is also a reminder to the emperor not to easily agree to Cheng Ge's request. This is just a poor and lowly person, so just give him some favors to pass it off.
Hearing these words in other people's ears, there is no doubt that they are like thunder on the ground. It turns out that they were wrong just now, this person is not from Concubine Chun's faction. Seeing the situation, there is still some entanglement, and they all whispered for a while.
The emperor frowned, this concubine Chun was getting more and more ignorant, how could she say these words face to face, especially on this occasion.
When Cheng Ge heard Concubine Chun's words, he raised his head and glanced at her, but didn't say a word.Instead, he looked at the emperor and asked: "The promise of the emperor's promise is still counted. If it counts, then ask for a promise. If it doesn't count, then it's fine."
Yo!This man is really bold, he even asked the emperor this unceremoniously. All the concubines and ministers were waiting to see how the emperor would get angry. Don't think about this promise, it's good to keep your head.
"En." The emperor nodded, "Of course, what are you asking for?"
The emperor was aware of Cheng Ge's honesty, and he was not as displeased as others expected, but instead asked what Cheng Geqiu's promise was.
"I want my family and friends to be safe and not to be oppressed and oppressed." Cheng Ge said, "And our leisure club can survive in Kyoto, and we won't be suppressed and closed on purpose."
The emperor frowned thoughtfully. He didn't think too much just now, but now when he heard Cheng Ge's words, he remembered that they had conflicts with the third and fifth princes.
Could it be that the warning he gave was not enough, or that the two sons didn't take his father seriously at all, and kept making moves.
"Allow." The emperor said in one sentence, "As long as you don't do anything that violates the law, adultery, or criminal offenses, I will definitely seek justice for you and won't let anyone harm your family."
The emperor looked around, focusing on the third prince and the others for a while, and pointed out: "But you all heard my promise clearly. If someone violates it, don't blame me for being merciless."
"Don't say that I have this promise, even if I don't, I don't allow anyone to bully the people of Daxing at will. I hope you will remember my words and supervise your family."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Cheng Ge said with a salute, "The Caomin have fought for Daxing for eight years at the border. Although they are not fighting for the imperial court to defend the pass, if Daxing needs it, the Caomin will definitely do their best."
This is his sincerity, not to mention the promise to be kind and disdainful of other people's suffering, even if he is sincerely able to help others, he will not be stingy.
What's more, the emperor's promise is so good.Even now that he has fulfilled his wish, he has to pay something to strengthen this promise.It is also because of the identities of the third prince and the others, they are the sons of the emperor after all. If he is not useful at all, will this promise come true?
"I still have a promise here." At this time, the queen smiled lightly and asked, "I don't know what you want."
This Cheng Ge is highly skilled in martial arts, and it is obvious that he is not compatible with Concubine Chun's mother and son. Even if he can't win over for the time being, there is still a chance in the future, so the queen is ready to show her favor.
"I don't ask for anything." Unexpectedly, Cheng Ge shook his head, "The Caomin only ask for this, and don't need anything else."
"The martial art is so good, why don't you give it to the court." The third prince clenched his fists under the table, but he said with a smile on his face: "As far as you can, even being a general is more than enough, why don't you enter the court, father It must be reused.”
What he thought in his heart was, didn't he want to keep safe?I will give you a high-ranking official and generous salary, and wherever the danger will send you, even if you can't kill you, you will still be bloody like a knife in my hand.
Fight for me, and when I get bored, I can find an excuse at any time. It's not up to me to kill or scrape.
If you can wait until the day you ascend the throne, and everything about you is controlled by me, it will be more fun, and you can let me do what you want, and never try to escape from my grasp at any time.
"Yes." Seeing her son's wink, Concubine Chun chimed in and said, "Your Majesty, such a talent should not be missed, and must be retained to serve the court."
"Your Majesty." Before the emperor could speak, the prince said impartially, "The harem is not allowed to interfere in politics."
"You." Concubine Chun's face darkened, she looked at the prince but did not dare to reprimand her.
Wang Gonggong looked fearless, and still bowed his head and stood beside the emperor after he finished speaking. It was only right for him to say that he did not overdo it.
"Concubine Chun." The emperor's expression remained unchanged, "Speak carefully."
How could he fail to see their mother and son's intentions, he was blatantly swearing that Cheng Ge and Cheng Ge were at odds, it seemed that he really had no deterrent in their hearts.
That's it for now, what about after that?so what?
It seems that he has to reconsider everything and make some decisions.
Thinking of this, the emperor couldn't sit still, and waved his hand to indicate that the lantern festival was over, and it was almost time now, so it would not delay the fun of the people if they left early.
The emperor looked tired, sitting in the imperial study in a daze, not knowing what went wrong, why did Concubine Chun and her son suddenly become like this.
He thought about it carefully, it seemed that he revealed his intention to make the third prince the queen prince.However, how did the good mother and son become so fast? He is still considering this matter, and the purpose of sharing some news is to observe everyone's reaction.
Before the day of the decision was really reached, before the real establishment of the crown prince, he just forgot about it and became arrogant. This change is too fast and should not be done.
Or, everything in the past was an illusion, and he alone was kept in the dark.That's right, I have been busy in the court, and my mind has been on the person in front of me. The emperor cast a glance at the prince who stood upright and bowed his head.
For their mother and child, it was just the love they had to do at the beginning, and later I was really moved, and I gave them more as a thank you.
"Speak." The emperor said suddenly.
"Hmm..." Eunuch Wang was taken aback for a moment, but he didn't react for a while, and stared blankly at the emperor.
That cute appearance made the emperor's hands itch a little, but he couldn't do anything excessive, he could only keep quiet and suppress the throbbing in his heart.
"You know what I'm going to ask." The emperor didn't call himself Zhen, and he never felt superior in front of his sweetheart.
The prince was silent, how could he not understand the meaning of the emperor, the reminder he said to Concubine Chun just now, although it was his duty, it did not have to be said.
What's more, no one in this world may understand him better than the emperor. If he is willing to put his mind on himself, he will not be able to hide any abnormal behavior from him.
"We have been so stiff all these years, and I'm tired." The emperor rubbed his brows wearily, and said, "There are many things in the court, and I always think that the days to come will be long, so there is no need to rush, but you don't want to worry about it." Do you feel that you have separated from me?"
"Still, it's what you expected or you've already lost your mind." The emperor said here, sitting up straight. He absolutely didn't allow this.
From the beginning to the end, his heart has never been given to others, even his own concubines, but this person in his heart forced him to favor him, first only for his heirs, and then for the big position.
He has done so much, forcing and forcing himself to favor people he doesn't like, what is all this for?
It's not for the peace of mind of the people in front of me, so I don't have to worry all day long, and I am willing to listen to his arrangements.
But now he is getting farther and farther away from him, does he know how much pain he has in his heart?
Which emperor was forced to swear that he would never be able to be with his beloved for the rest of his life, or even see him face to face.
"I'm really tired." The emperor sighed again. "Five years ago, when you were picked up, you were silent. When I asked you how you were, you would only say that everything was fine. How could such a place be better?"
"Your majesty." The prince is in a complicated state of mind. He doesn't know how to deal with the relationship with the emperor now. What else can he say or do besides being silent?
His eyes were reddish, and he said in a sour tone: "Does the Emperor know who told the Queen Mother about our affair and who has been behind the scenes for ten years, making me wander between life and death many times?"
"Heh!" Eunuch Wang laughed miserably, "It's your most favored Concubine Chun, the one you love the most."
"Impossible, impossible." The emperor exclaimed and stood up, "How is it possible?"
The prince lowered his head, stopped looking at the emperor and said, "I knew I wouldn't believe it if I told it, so I never mentioned these things. Why should the emperor be so aggressive?"
"No, no." The emperor stepped down from the jade case, "I believe, I believe you, no matter what you say, I will believe it."
"We grew up together, how many lives and deaths we have experienced, when did we doubt each other, why do you say such things?"
The emperor couldn't control his emotions anymore, he took him by the hand and told him little by little what happened in these years.
It turned out that when the queen mother punished the prince while the emperor was not in the palace, she wanted his life, but the emperor rushed back after hearing the news.
At that time, the emperor had just ascended the throne, and the affairs of state affairs had not yet been fully grasped, and the queen mother seized the opportunity to intervene in politics, so he had no choice but to save the prince.
His only bottom line is that the prince is alive. The queen mother saw his determination and dared not really execute the prince, so she forced the emperor to swear that she would never have an affair with the prince again in this life.
The emperor had no choice but to promise that as long as the prince and father-in-law could live a good life and die in peace, he would have no more unreasonable thoughts.
"However, how can I rest assured of you." The emperor said bitterly: "On the one hand, I am worried to death, and on the other hand, I have to take care of the queen mother, so I dare not send someone to take care of you."
"It's Concubine Chun, she took the initiative to tell me that she can send someone to take care of you secretly, and she will report your news from time to time." The emperor gritted his teeth in hatred, "It's hard for me to be deceived by her, so it turns out that she caused all this trouble."
"Don't even think about it. She was originally chosen by the Queen Mother. Even if you don't doubt it, how can you still trust her?" The prince said with hatred: "I persuaded you to pet her at the beginning, but it was just to confuse the Queen Mother. So confused."
"It's not that I can't help it. The Queen Mother knows all the trustworthy people in the palace, and people from outside can't come in, so they can't do this."
The emperor said: "If I hadn't seized the power quickly and cut off the Queen Mother's minions, how could I have the strength to pick you up. If she wasn't my own mother, I wouldn't let her play around like this, let alone let her live to the end. Now."
"Ah!" The prince sighed, some things are really helpless.
"Don't sigh." The emperor said with a smile: "The oath back then was not made so easily. I said that you are well and safe. Now that they have violated my oath, everything will cease to exist."
"Even if there is any retribution, I'm not afraid. 15 years! I don't want to miss a day of how many 15 years we have, even if I don't want to be the emperor anymore."
Cheng Ge walked down from the emperor to look at the light platform, and promised them to come over quickly, "How is it? Has the emperor agreed?" Xu Nuo asked anxiously.
"I agree." Cheng Ge said with a smile: "We don't have to worry about it anymore."
"Ahhh!" Xu Nuo shouted happily, he and Cheng Ge are free, no longer need to worry about the safety of relatives and friends, and can live the life they want as they please.
"Pingshen." The emperor had a smile on his face, it was a great blessing to have such a brave man.
"Cheng Ge" the fifth prince sitting not far away exclaimed, "Why are you?"
A group of concubines and ministers on the high platform were carefully measuring Cheng Ge, to see who was the master who could easily shoot down two lanterns at once.
