The eighth prince came to express his gratitude to Xie Jingyan and Shen Wan on behalf of his mother, Concubine Wang Shu. He gave them their thank-you gifts, stayed for a while, and then left.

When I left, I took the parrot with me.

Dong'er and several other little maids often fed the parrots. When they saw the Eighth Prince borrowing the parrots, they were quite reluctant to do so. They only hoped that the Eighth Prince would get tired of playing with them soon and send the parrots back.

Shen Wan went back to the house to drink tea. Before she finished the cup, Chun'er came in and said happily, "Princess, the day has been set for the Yun family's eldest cousin to marry the Qinghe County Lord..."

As soon as Shen Wan heard this, she asked, "When?"

Chun'er hurriedly replied, "This month is twenty-eight."

Yin Shuang said, "Then the Yanping Palace will hold two wedding banquets this month?"

Prince Yanping will marry the eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's Palace on the 18th of this month, just a few days away.

Chun'er covered her mouth and smiled, "Prince Yanping originally wanted to let Qinghe County Lord out of the cabinet next month. Isn't this because Xuanping Houfu wanted to marry his second cousin as soon as possible? When he saved Prince Yanping's son, Xuanping Houfu also With all their efforts, the Yanping Palace chose the first auspicious day, the 28th of this month and the 16th of next month, when Prince Xuanping married his second cousin."

All the happy events came together.

It's just that Shen Wan is pregnant, so it's not certain whether she can go to the wedding banquet of her eldest cousin and the head of Qinghe County. Prince Yanping and Cheng Yao, as well as Crown Prince Xuanping Hou and Yun Rui, can't even think about it.

After lunch, Shen Wan took a nap as usual. However, when she woke up and was stretching, Yin Shuang came up to her and said with shining eyes, "Princess, the king has been scolded."

Shen Wan, "...???"

Was King Cheng scolded?

With such a status as King Cheng, who dares to scold him?

Could it be the Queen Mother or——

Shen Wan sat upright and said, "The emperor scolded you?"

Yinshuang shook his head.

Shen Wan said, "Queen Mother?"

Yinshuang still shook his head.

Shen Wan frowned.

Not the Emperor, not the Queen Mother, who else could it be?

Xie Jingyan was about to enter the palace. She might still guess that it was him, but he hadn't entered the palace either, and Xie Jingyan was only targeting the emperor, so he probably wouldn't do anything to publicly scold the emperor.

Shen Wan couldn't guess and said, "Stop being so secretive and tell me quickly."

Yin Shuang smiled so hard that she couldn't see her teeth, "It was our parrot who scolded me."

Shen Wan, "..."

Shen Wan was embarrassed.

Even if she was asked to guess for three days and three nights, she still wouldn't be able to guess that it was the parrot who scolded Chengwang.

Shen Wan's curiosity was aroused, "How could a parrot be called a king?"

The parrot was taken away by the eighth prince. Even if the eighth prince met King Cheng on his way back to the palace and the parrot started to curse, he could not be sure that he was scolding King Cheng.

Yinshuang grinned and told Shen Wan how he called the parrot a king.

In the morning, the eighth prince took the parrot away and played around on the street before returning to the palace. After returning to the palace, he couldn't help but laugh thinking that this parrot even dared to scold his sixth brother. It was such an interesting thing. , I had to share it with my father. Then the eighth prince took the parrot to the royal study.

The eighth prince told the emperor about the parrot scolding Xie Jingyan and calling him around. Hearing this, the emperor felt a black line falling from his forehead and felt a little upset.

A parrot can control his son, but he, the father, cannot.

His own son was more patient with parrots than he was with his father, which made the emperor angry.

There was also this parrot. The emperor really wanted to hear what this parrot with a bad mouth would say, but no matter how the eighth prince teased it, the parrot just didn't speak. The emperor asked the eighth prince to put the parrot in the royal study and raise it for two years. God will take it away again.

When the emperor spoke, the eighth prince dared not to listen, so he silently withdrew.

As a result, the eighth prince walked on the front foot and became a king on the back foot to find the emperor.

The parrot stand was placed on the emperor's dragon table. The emperor was playing with the parrot's feathers and did not take it down.

King Cheng was looking for the emperor because of the iron cavalry. King Cheng knew that the emperor trusted the Marquis of Pingyang, but Marquis Pingyang already had a large number of troops, plus an elite 6,000-strong iron cavalry. The military power was too concentrated. Once the power in his hands was over. Being big will breed ambition, especially when Marquis Pingyang also has a son-in-law of a prince. King Cheng felt that it was not appropriate to hand over the iron cavalry to Marquis Pingyang. Even if he did, it would only be half at most.

The matter of the iron cavalry was discussed by civil and military officials more than once in the court. The emperor's attitude was very firm. He thought that the matter was settled, but he still refused to give up when he became the king. The emperor thought of the eye drops that Xie Jingyan gave him, and he became the king. The people who have been recommended recently are all people from the Jin Dynasty, so I can't help but feel a little impatient.

When the Iron Cavalry was formed, no one was competing for it. Now, with the help of the Yun family, Pingyang Marquis has finished all the war horses and other matters, and is about to go to the Northwest Wei family to get the war horses. At this time, people who are interested in the Iron Cavalry appear one by one and pose. It was clear that he wanted to grab a ready-made advantage, but the emperor really looked down upon him. The emperor did not expect that the person who was most fiercely opposed to Shen Jing's iron cavalry was his own younger brother.

The emperor said, "I have already made up my mind on this matter, and there is no need to persuade me further."

Seeing that the emperor was not getting enough money, King Cheng's voice rose a little higher, "Brother Emperor! I am thinking about the country, the country, the country, you..."

When Cheng Wang said this, the parrot started scolding, "You idiot! What do you know, why don't you get out of here!"

emperor,"……"

Eunuch Yuan, "..."

The scolding was so fitting.

Really.

Eunuch Yuan spent half his life not laughing out loud.

Cheng Wang's face was so green that there were no words to describe it.

King Cheng is the biological son of the Queen Mother and the youngest son, whom she loves the most. He has lived for thirty-five years and has never been scolded by anyone, let alone scolded so harshly. Today he was scolded by a parrot, and he was scolded in person. Wang breathed out angrily and almost didn't mention it.

The emperor knew that the parrot had nothing good to say, so he kept the parrot because he wanted to hear why it had such bad things to say. Sure enough, he, the emperor, had learned a lot today.

No matter how dissatisfied his royal brother was with King Cheng, he would not dare to call him a fool. If the news reached the ears of the Queen Mother, he would not have to make trouble for himself. The parrot had no burden to scold him. The Queen Mother would not be a beast. He scolded King Cheng and came to challenge him, the emperor.

King Cheng looked at the parrot with cold eyes, perhaps feeling murderous intent. The parrot flapped its wings to escape, but its ankles were tied with thin iron chains and could not escape.

The emperor said, "This parrot really doesn't have nice things to say. King Cheng doesn't have to be angry with an animal."

Insulting the prince could result in being banished or put to death in severe cases.

The emperor was reluctant to dispose of the parrot, and King Cheng could not force the emperor to kill the parrot, without losing the dignity of a dignified prince.

King Cheng wanted to persuade the emperor again, but the emperor waved his hand and said, "Step back."

King Cheng's already ugly face suddenly became even more ugly.

Although the emperor asked him to retreat, the parrot asked him to get out of the way. The emperor's move to retreat and get out meant the same thing.

When King Cheng was scolded by a parrot in the royal study, the emperor did not give a gag order. King Cheng did not dare to give a gag order to the people in the royal study. Then the matter was spread as a joke by the palace people.
