Bold, how dare you break Ben Hou

Qingzhi, the paper tiger, was as frightened when it came into contact with the water, as if the weeds in winter had been beaten by snow, shaking the snow scum downwards, trying to escape from old man Liu's hands, and said forcefully: "Who made you Standing in that corner to eavesdrop? Do you know that eavesdropping is immoral?"

Liu Yucai didn't care what Qingzhi said, he just twisted his ears to vent his anger: "You can just make fun of the old man? I thought that your relationship with Qingwen has eased in the past three years, and you have been taught by him occasionally. I can make progress, but I never thought that my words would still be so ugly! If I don’t teach you a lesson for the Eldest Princess today, I will be her elder in vain!” After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and was waiting to “educate” Qingzhi.

Seeing this, Gu Jixiu quickly stopped him: "Grandfather, you also know that Qingzhi has always been frivolous, but everything he said was just a joke, why do you have to argue with him?"

Liu Yu snorted: "It's because too few people care about him, that's why he developed this temper!"

But that being said, it was for Gu Jixiu's sake that he finally twisted Qingzhi's ear before deciding to let him go.

Sitting down with Gu Jixiu, seeing Qingzhi rubbing his ears and rubbing his ears, he cast him aside and said: "That kid Nianzhong is not bad, he just cares about the society, seeing that there is nothing in the court People mentioned it, so..."

"Grandpa, don't worry, I understand everything. You and I have a newborn calf. Although He Nianzhong has a quick temper, he is not afraid of power and devotes himself to serving the country. I appreciate it very much and will not blame him."

Liu Yu felt relieved, and then smiled and said, "I also understand, but I haven't really listened to what you said, but I still don't feel relieved—I'm really old."

The smile on Gu Jixiu's face became a little forced when he heard this: "Grandfather—grandson really..." He wanted to say that he was really sorry for the Empress Dowager and him, the late emperor, and the ancestors of the Gu family, but After all, there are two Fang Fu here.Although in the past three years, the three of them got close because of Qingzhi's relationship, and Fang Fu and Fang Fu were also his confidantes, but there was an additional layer of relationship and became more trusting.

But a courtier is a courtier after all, apart from Qingzhi, Gu Jixiu has never treated Fang and Fu on an equal footing, and since the matter involves his own personal affairs, he still admits his mistakes, and will not be in a situation where they are both present anyway. Say it down.

Even if Qingzhi stepped in: "Old man Liu, this matter... can't be blamed on him, not only him—uh..." Qingzhi scratched his head, took a sneak look at Lan Sheng and Yan Xin, thinking that once this first time I started apologizing personally, do I have to ask Lan Sheng and Ashin's parents to apologize one by one in the future?

No, Lan Sheng's parents seem to have gone to report to Lao Bai a long time ago - there can be one less.

"what do you want to say in the end!"

"Ouch!" Qingzhi covered his head, seeing Gu Jixiu's fan being held by Liu Yu at some point.

"I just want to say that He Nianzhong is not without it. After all, he brought to the table the matter that no one dared to mention and was ignored by Brother Gu! In this way, Brother Gu has no excuse not to go Solve it, don't you? Don't think that I don't know that you and the old queen are silently looking at each other in Shoukang Palace every day, just because of the problem of Gu Xiaoge having no successors!"

Liu Yu was blocked by Qingzhi and couldn't speak, so he could only blow his beard and stare: "Who told you that the old man and the empress dowager cried together? Who said that?"

Qingzhi let out a cry, looked up at the sky and didn't answer.

"Lan Sheng's idea... It's not like I haven't thought about it before."

Just when everyone was silent in embarrassment, Liu Yu suddenly spoke again, his voice was different from before, although it was angry, but at least it was relaxed, but now it seemed that the words behind him were a bit heavy, which made him unable to open his mouth: "I also discussed with the Empress Dowager. , we don't want to ask any more about the matter between you and Qing, we just hope that you two...you can do well, you can be a good king, govern the people of the country well, and it's good to be worthy of your surname. And We have also thought about looking for the position of the crown prince from among the descendants of the same branch—”

"..." Fang Lansheng and Fu Yanxin looked at each other, not to mention Gu Jixiu, the descendants of the Gu family were rare and different from the previous dynasty. I remember that when the previous dynasty was just destroyed, there were nearly 30 descendants with the same surname.Before Dongxing, there was another turmoil, and many offshoots were killed. Until Gu Lingsu revolted again and rebuilt the Gu dynasty, there were less than [-] bloodlines left.

It just so happened that each of Gu's successive emperors was a lover, and there were very few drafts in the harem, and there were even cases where there was only one empress in the harem.

Such a situation has both advantages and disadvantages. The advantage is that there are fewer offspring, and brotherhood is less likely to happen; the disadvantage is that now—almost every new emperor is an only child.

Naturally, Gu Jixiu did too.

The first emperor passed away early due to illness, but at least Gu Jixiu was left behind to take over the throne—but now that Gu Jixiu is still on the throne, there is...no one to choose.

"Although they are all surnamed Gu, side branch is always side branch!" Qing Zhi put it bluntly: "Are you still worried?"

This time Liu Yu didn't care about his vulgarity, nodded and said: "Yes, besides, there is still a prince in the court. If the emperor has not made a decision to become the king, although it seems that the court is peaceful inside and outside, but it is not guaranteed that it will happen." Those who have a heart, stir up trouble."

Fang Lansheng also nodded and said: "Yes, if the matter of the crown prince is played, the emperor will have no children, and the prince will inherit it. At that time, the emperor will be in the latecomer and it will be difficult to control."

"Prince Rui and Prince Tai are both younger than the Emperor, and they each have a son in their household. If everyone wants to use this as an excuse, they may be the main ones."

Qingzhi looked back and forth on the faces of the four of them a few times, usually he couldn't see it, but he didn't expect that even Fu Yanxin, who was a general, could see the current political situation so clearly.It's no wonder that the people sitting here have either been playing politics since childhood, or have jumped into the direction of playing politics since childhood. When it comes to critical moments, they will always show their abilities.

"Prince Rui, I have the impression that it doesn't look like someone who would like to be placed in the position of the crown prince...Prince Tai? I don't have any contact with him and I don't know him very well—but since old man Liu said, the side branches are not credible. , then there is only one choice, right? Old Man Liu?"

Liu Yu glared at him, but in the end he sighed and said slowly: "This kid is right...but although your empress dowager and I know about Yin'er, we don't know where they are now, what happened in the past. How is it going, whether you have a child. I wanted to ask you, but I was worried that you would think about something else, and it dragged on for three years... but I never thought of—"

"But Rong Ruo is the son of a guilty minister." Gu Jixiu looked at Liu Yu and said, "Is it okay? Half of the blood on that child belongs to the Wang family."

"But half of it belongs to the Gu family." Qingzhi suddenly intervened, with a joking expression on his face just now, but his eyes were rarely serious: "Could it be that you don't believe it's me? Or Don’t believe Rong Ruo? That’s even easier, just find someone to tie them up and lock them up in a sky prison... Oh no, no, it’s not safe to lock them up, it’s more straightforward to wipe them with a knife. Small, can't recognize people, only recognize the one who brought him up since he was a child, won't everything be resolved by then?"

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, old man Liu and Gu Jixiu slapped the table at the same time and shouted: "No!"

Qingzhi shrugged: "Look, it really is a family."

Lan Sheng covered his mouth and laughed: "Although the emperor and Mr. Liu are related by grandparents, they are exactly the same in temperament!"

Liu Yu stroked his beard and turned his face away, but Gu Jixiu didn't know if it was because Cai Cai's performance was too explicit, which made him a little embarrassed at this time, so he could only cough to dispel the embarrassment: "Don't make this kind of joke again. , who is Rongruo, you know better than me."

"I think it's because I know what kind of person he is, that's why Lan Sheng put forward this proposal with such confidence, and I can support it with such confidence. The crown prince cannot be left in the hands of others, because it belongs to you, Mrs. Gu." Jiye, I will not let you be infamous for a hundred years because of me!" Qing Zhi secretly held Gu Jixiu's hand.

"Rong Ruo and Gu Lingyin's eldest son is going to be 2 years old this year. It's a good time to learn how to speak. I remember that the child was born in winter, and the age of birth is also the same as yours in Shanghai three years ago. The time is right, and then you just need to make up a perfect excuse, such as who is the mother of the child, how did she die, how did the child be claimed, etc... so you have to go first Yes, just go to Shencheng again, and in "that trip", you will be able to pick up a prince cleverly."

"..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

Qingzhi was still talking non-stop, but found that the four people in front of him were looking at him like a monster, and couldn't help but wonder: "What are you looking at me for?"

"...It's nothing, I just think you have the potential to be a traitor."

"It's still that kind of big cancer." Gu Jixiu picked up the cup again and took a sip slowly.
