The identity of the direct son - Xu I's prosperous world

The emperor glanced at Xu Xuan, did not respond to his greeting, and turned his eyes away, clearly still angry with Xu Xuan, which made Xu Xuan very embarrassed, and stood silently by the side without speaking.

Because the atmosphere between the emperor and Xu Xuan was tense, Zhao Zhili and Brother Heng didn't know what to say, and they fell silent for a while.

It was Xu Xuan who broke the silence first, pleading in his voice, and said to the emperor, "Your Majesty..."

But only opened one head, the emperor looked at him, and said indifferently, "I don't want to hear what you say."

As he said that, he was about to take Brother Heng's hand and leave, but Xu Xuan stood in front of the emperor very rudely and persistently, staring at him deeply, "Your Majesty, in February this year, I will follow My father left Beijing to practice in the Guangzhou Navy, and I don’t know when he will come back.”

The emperor stopped his movements because of his words, and seemed a little moved, so Brother Heng took a step back knowingly, and then took a step back, avoiding to the side, leaving room for Xu Xuan to talk to the emperor.

Zhao Zhili saw Brother Heng's movements, and followed him to avoid it.

The emperor and Xu Xuan stood at the stern and talked, both of them looked very heavy, probably because Xu Xuan was about to leave, even though the emperor was angry with him before, the two had known each other since they were young and played together for many years Companion, the emperor will still think of some of his benefits at this time, so let's express intimacy with him.

Brother Heng looked at the back of the emperor talking to Xu Xuan, and Zhao Zhili looked at him, then reached out and patted him on the shoulder, "Why, are you afraid that the emperor will leave Xu Xuan behind again?"

Brother Heng raised his head and glanced at Zhao Zhili. Zhao Zhili's face was half in the light of the palace lantern and half in the darkness, making his face even more sharp-edged and obscure.

Brother Heng said sternly, "The problem between the emperor and Xu Shizi was also caused by me. I feel guilty in my heart. It is my wish that the two can reconcile now."

Zhao Zhili laughed because of his words, and sighed helplessly, "You really are..."

Zhao Zhili, who hadn't finished sighing, fixed his gaze on Brother Heng's face, changed the subject, and said with a hint of ridicule, warning and concern intermingled in the mockery, "Don't take yourself too seriously, put too much weight on the emperor. Be emotional, and it will only be you who will suffer."

Brother Heng was very surprised by Zhao Zhili's nonsensical words, and didn't understand what he was referring to. At this time, the emperor had already finished speaking with Xu Xuan, and Xu Xuan was about to leave, and Brother Heng really didn't want to be on this ship After staying, he also wanted to leave. Zhao Zhili probably also felt that it was difficult to sit with a group of women, so several of them went to salute the Queen Mother and said that they were going to Fengxiang Hall.

The queen mother said, "You guys are boys, so it's not a big deal to sit here, just go if you want."

So several people thanked them together, and another boat sent them directly to Fengxiang Palace on the other side.

The emperor felt that he was tired, so he wanted to go back to the palace to rest, and asked the eunuch next to him to tell the ministers about his departure, and then got into the sedan chair and left.

Brother Heng waited for Master Ji to get off the boat and walked together under the plum tree next to Fengxiang Hall. Zhao Zhili didn't know where he went. After Xu Xuan disappeared for a while, he suddenly appeared in front of Brother Heng. Brother Heng was arrested He was startled, and hurriedly asked Li.

Xu Xuan didn't say anything, just raised his head with his hand, stared at Brother Heng's cheek for a while with the light on the curved corridor, and then let him go, "You are disfigured."

Brother Heng really didn't understand what he was doing so extravagantly, deliberately reminding him of being disfigured?

Brother Heng said angrily, "Thanks to Mr. Xu."

Xu Xuan snorted coldly, and said, "No courtier in history can find a good end."

Of course Brother Heng would not let him insult him, "I don't know why Xu Shizi thinks that I am going to be this sycophant. Even if I have a bad reputation now, it is not thanks to you. I have never seen such shameless A person who insults other people's reputation, and keeps reminding them that his reputation is bad. I really don't understand, apart from my parents giving me a more attractive appearance than yours, what else can be misunderstood? I feel that I am a person who does not rely on talent and learning, but only relies on appearance to obtain things that others cannot obtain."

Xu Xuan's face was completely darkened by Brother Heng's words, and he pushed him with such strength that he pushed Brother Heng to the ground, and then he said condescendingly, "Don't be too complacent. Even if the emperor sees you and likes you, it's just that you have been young these few years. If you rely on your appearance to hold back the emperor, you wait for me to come back from Guangzhou to treat you."

Brother Heng got up from the ground, rubbing his hand on the ground hurt so much, he wiped it with his sleeve, no less imposing than Xu Xuan, "I'll just wait for you to come back from Guangzhou, a narrow-minded person, I really don't know , other than using tricks behind the scenes, what else can I do."

"You!" Xu Xuan was so angry that he couldn't catch his breath. Brother Heng turned around and walked away. After taking two steps, he turned around, looked at him with a frown, and asked, "Can you tell me why you Do you think the emperor likes me more? Even Prince Zhao thinks that the emperor doesn't like me too much."

Xu Xuan didn't answer him, and snorted coldly, "If you want to get out, get out, or I'll hit you again."

Brother Heng thought to himself that a gentleman who only uses his words without using his hands can only be regarded as a martial artist at best. Even though he thought so, he ran away quickly. It was actually very uncomfortable to be pushed and pushed by Xu Xuan.

When Brother Heng and Master Ji returned to the mansion together, Master Ji asked about Brother Heng being taken by the emperor to the Empress Dowager's ship today.

Brother Heng said that the queen mother mentioned that the emperor wanted to choose a queen.

Mr. Ji didn't find it strange when he heard what he said. Thinking about the emperor's choice of the empress to marry, in the hearts of the courtiers, it should also be on the agenda.

It should be a good thing for the courtiers who support the emperor that the emperor wants to get married.

In ancient times, there was a saying of starting a family and establishing a career. One must first establish a family and then establish a career. After the emperor has a family, it is time to establish a career, that is, to slowly take power.

Master Ji didn't comment on the matter after the emperor's election, Brother Heng went on to say, "The emperor said in front of Prince Zhao that he thinks Prince Zhao's cousin is beautiful and virtuous, and she can be the queen candidate."

Master Ji said lightly, "What's the use if the emperor doesn't say that. The queen mother definitely wants to give her mother's family to the emperor to be the queen. I heard that there are many daughters in the Zhao family. When the time comes, don't even be a daughter of the Zhao family. .”

When he said this, although his tone was light, it was mixed with the disgust that Brother Heng could clearly hear.

Brother Heng was a little surprised, and then suddenly realized that Mr. Ji's several concubines, except for the fourth concubine who was more popular with him, was a girl from a good family he liked, and the rest were arranged by Uncle Xu. Knowing Master Ji is actually just not talking about it, but he is very dissatisfied with Uncle Xu's arrangement in his heart.

Brother Heng fell silent. He is a man himself, so he can actually understand some of Mr. Ji's thoughts on this aspect. The feeling that the women around him are all arranged by his brother-in-law, I'm afraid it won't be good.

The carriage was gurgling forward, Brother Heng dozed off a little bit, and also had a headache, probably because he had a cold before, but after all, he was hurting his vitality. Today, the wind blows, and it is very common to have a headache and brain fever.

Brother Heng's head hangs down, leaning against the wall of the carriage, he was about to fall asleep, Master Ji suddenly stretched out his hand, hugged him to his side, and let him lean into his arms.

Brother Heng was stunned for a moment, then raised his head to look at Master Ji, who said softly, "Sleep in Daddy's arms, don't hit your head."

Brother Heng was a little dumbfounded. He didn't refuse after all, and fell asleep in Master Ji's arms. After all, he was still young, so it wouldn't be a big deal even if he slept in his father's arms.

Brother Heng will still take Master Ji's affection for him to heart.

After the two entered the mansion, Brother Heng followed him to his study and told him another thing.

"The emperor mentioned it to me today and asked me if I have a sister."

After Brother Heng finished speaking, Master Ji's slightly tired expression became much deeper. Master Ji probably understood Brother Heng's subtext, and said, "How did you answer?"

Brother Heng said, "The emperor made it very clear that he hoped to let one of my elder sisters enter the palace to accompany him, but later I said that my two elder sisters are concubine elder sisters, so he said that I should take his words as a joke. "

Mr. Ji showed a pensive look on his face. Brother Heng didn't know if Mr. Ji knew that the third sister wanted to enter the palace, but in fact, Brother Heng didn't really want the third sister to enter the palace. Although the third sister is beautiful, But they are not very beautiful, and they are concubines. Master Ji has always invited a wife for them to give them excellent education in various aspects. This not only makes them excellent, but more directly leads to their high spirits.

The days in the palace, Brother Heng didn't think it was a good time, and the emperor was very thoughtful, it was not easy to please him, the third sister really entered the palace, Brother Heng didn't think she would have a good life.

Besides, there are empresses in the palace at home, Brother Heng feels that the emperor will only fear them.

After all, the emperor has been under the control of the empress dowager all these years, so he will definitely be afraid of the empress dowager and relatives in the future.

Master Ji didn't say much to Brother Heng afterwards, and let him leave.

Brother Heng returned to the main room, Mrs. Xu has been waiting for him, Xu Qilang is also there, and there is a table full of food, Mrs. Xu heard that he had blown the wind, so she asked someone to bring boiled eggs for Heng. Brother rolled his forehead and said it was to go to the wind.

Brother Heng hadn't eaten glutinous rice for a long time, and he still didn't have anything to eat today, so he begged Xu, "I'd like some Yuanxiao."

Xu Qilang was eating Yuanxiao, so he was about to pass it to him, but Xu hurriedly said, "Qilang, don't give it to him. This Yuanxiao is made of glutinous rice. How can the scar on his face heal after eating it?"

Brother Heng made a bitter face, "Isn't the injury on the face already healed?"

Xu said, "The traces haven't disappeared yet."

Brother Heng said, "If it's like this all the time, I won't be able to eat glutinous rice for the rest of my life."

Xu's face was stern, "No matter how you talk, you can talk nonsense like this. Why has it been like this, after a while, it will be fine."

Brother Heng had no choice but to stop talking, what Xu hoped for in him was perfection.

Sometimes, the sustenance of parents is also helpless.

And he knew that since he was born, he couldn't be perfect at all.
