Conquer the king with power

"Since the first emperor couldn't keep Wei Chun, why didn't he kill...Wei Hou before he died?" Xu Jinnian didn't know about these things, he only knew that the matter of Si Yan and Wei Chun was discovered by the late emperor, who was once imprisoned Si Yan and Zhaohedian, as for the last decree, he didn't know.

"Because I once told the late emperor that if Wei Chun died, I would go and accompany Wei Chun. Let the country he earned so hard and the throne he kept fall into the hands of others. After all, I am his only son." Si Yan He tilted his head and looked indifferent.

Xu Jinnian was even more startled. He always thought that Si Yan just had a crush on Wei Chun, and liking Wei Chun was just like doting on a concubine.It never occurred to Si Yan to have deep affection for Wei Chun. This is not just Wei Chun's wishful thinking, but a mutual love between life and death.It's just that Si Yan is struggling, afraid of hurting the people on top of his heart, Wei Chun always thinks that he can't win the emperor's heart, and is moving forward in self-satisfaction.

"I actually think that there is nothing wrong with what the late emperor did. A father naturally hopes that his children can..." Xu Jinnian didn't continue talking. He likes male favorites, which can be found everywhere in history.It's just that this is against the norms, and it's just the extravagant fun of dudes.However, Si Yan put Wei Chun in his heart and listed him as the most important thing in his life.

"I once promised the late emperor to sever ties with Wei Chun and let the late emperor let the Wei family stay at the border forever. The late emperor also agreed, but turned around and assassinated the Wei family in an attempt to kill the grass. The death of the old Marquis Wei was the work of the late emperor. Do you still think that the late emperor Is it right? Xu Jinnian." Si Yan leaned over and pinched Xu Jinnian's shoulder.

"I don't want this throne, I can exchange everything, but the late emperor wants to give me this position. I don't feel at ease after giving it to me, and set up many traps for me, waiting for me to step into it one day." Si Yan finally I'm useless, if he can call me, he can let Wei Chun take him away, far away.

Xu Jinnian bowed his head silently, it turned out that the death of the old Marquis Wei was the work of the late emperor.When the old Marquis Wei died, he felt that something was wrong, but all the officials in the court spoke with the same caliber, and there was no trace at all.

"So His Majesty came here today to..." Xu Jinnian's heart tightened.

"I want to praise you as the second Prime Minister Feng, so that Dayu's court will only recognize me." Si Yan raised his chin slightly, revealing a defiant arc.

Xu Jinnian nodded: "I understand, so I must take the position of Zhongshu Ling next."

The secretary leaned on the table: "Yes!"

Xu Jinnian hesitated for a moment, bowed his head to the ground, and returned solemnly.

"My lord, I will never refuse to die!" Xu Jinnian had a heart for the country and the people from the beginning of his studies.However, he has been in the officialdom for several years, and he has seen through the court's exercise of power, all officials are pedantic and powerless.If you can sit in a high position, you will be able to show your ambitions, and this life will not be in vain.

"Remember what you said today. In my heart, Dayu's life is as important as Weihou's. So even if it's not for Dayu Jiangshan, I will give it a try for Weihou." Si Yan stretched out his hand to help Xu Jinnian.

Xu Jinnian kowtowed again: "I understand."

Hearing Xu Jinnian's words, Si Yan looked at Dou Yu who had been waiting at the door, signaling that Dou Yu could prepare to send Xu Jinnian out of the palace.

"Your Majesty, if you allow me a period of time, I will definitely take down the position of Zhongshu and constrain the cabinet for Your Majesty." Xu Jinnian stood up and held the ceremony.

Si Yan waved his hand feebly: "I see, I will wait for Xu Qing's good news."

When Xu Jinnian left, Dou Yu didn't send him off, but just ordered the children under his command to send Xu Jinnian out of the palace.Because just now the empress dowager came and said that His Majesty was invited to enjoy the flowers.

As soon as Xu Jinnian left, Dou Yu turned around and went in.

"Your Majesty, the female officer next to the Empress Dowager has come and said that Lingnan paid tribute to several chrysanthemums of different colors, which is really rare. Please go and enjoy the flowers, Your Majesty." Dou Yu bowed and whispered in Si Yan's ear.

Si Yan let out a sigh of relief: "Why did the queen mother let me admire the flowers!" It was clearly for him to see people, but it's a pity that he and Cai Rongyang couldn't fall in love for a long time.

"Your Majesty, do you want to go?" Dou Yu asked as he saw that it was getting dark outside the window.

Si Yan rubbed his brows: "The Queen Mother bears a grudge against me, and she used means to accept the will in her hand. She has always wanted to bring out a queen to restrain me. Thinking about it, she even wants to monopolize her own power and support a wealthy Cai family. The child of the blood is on the throne."

"I'm going!" Si Yan thought for a moment, he always wanted to see what the Empress Dowager was going to do so that he could deal with it.

"Show the ride!" Dou Yu immediately shouted towards the door, and the children waiting at the door immediately started to act, those who were ready to step forward, those who were ready to step forward, and those who were preparing for the guard of honor.

When Si Yan rushed to the Empress Dowager's Palace, he saw bright lights everywhere, and all kinds of court ladies and eunuchs were busy coming and going.

As soon as he entered the gate, he saw the yard full of chrysanthemums of all colors, and there were even a few pots of mixed colors in the middle, which was very strange.

The queen mother was standing under the eaves, holding Cai Rongyang's hand, talking and laughing.

"Hello, Empress Dowager!" The banquet saluted.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!" At this time, Cai Rongyang also let go of the hand of the secretary, and bowed to greet him.

Compared with the meeting with Wei Xian a few days ago, today's Cai Rongyang is extraordinarily gentle and polite, and his demeanor is also generous and natural.

"The county master doesn't need to be too polite!" Si Yan was also polite.

"The king of Lingnan has a heart this year. He has cultivated several colorful chrysanthemums, and specially paid tribute to them, hoping to make the family happy." The queen mother continued to hold Cai Rongyang's hand.

"As long as the Queen Mother is happy!" Si Yan followed the Queen Mother's words, and continued politely and decently.

"Does the emperor like it?" The queen mother went to see the banquet again.

Si Yan looked at the Queen Mother's smile: "If the Queen Mother likes it, I will like it."

"As long as you like it." The queen mother nodded, and the beaded tassels on the phoenix crown swayed slightly in her hair.

"When the King of Lingnan sent this chrysanthemum, he sent an envoy to ask for marriage for his son. He said that the son fell in love with Rong Yang at first sight and wanted to marry Rong Yang as his concubine." The queen mother said slowly, looking sideways. He glanced at Rong Yang, his brows and eyes were very happy.

Si Yan's face was calm and there was no disturbance, and he smiled lightly after hearing this: "This is a good thing!"

"So! The Ai family wants to ask His Majesty for an imperial decree to marry Rong Yang. The Ai family has always treated Rong Yang like a daughter, so naturally they want to give her the greatest honor." The queen mother looked at the face of Si Yan, wanting to find out With some other emotions, she wouldn't be able to hear the news, and Si Yan could go on as usual.

Si Yan nodded immediately: "Okay, this is a good thing, I will support it, and let the cabinet draft an order immediately."

Seeing Si Yan so calm, the queen mother was a little disappointed and puzzled.It shouldn't be!The King of Lingnan is the only kinsman of the Si family royal family. He is entrusted with the land of Lingnan and holds military power.During his lifetime, the first emperor had been trying to reduce his family, but he was afraid of the power of the Lingnan king and failed repeatedly.

Now that the Cai family is going to marry the King of Lingnan, it is really wrong for the banquet to be so peaceful.

Si Yan was actually very calm in his heart, as long as it wasn't about Wei Chun, there was nothing worthy of his anxiety or fear.It's just a Lingnan king, he is not afraid!He thought that the queen mother was some kind of monster again, so she was waiting for him here.
