The new emperor ascended the throne, and it was the end of the new year. Although Shen Hexi didn't know many people in Yong'an City, there were still many people who fawned over the title of King Dunliang here.After working for several days in a row, he finally took a break from his busy schedule to go home to visit his mother, but he never expected to encounter such a bad thing again.

Ever since the two established their relationship, Shen Hexi had already regarded Li Baihan as his. Back then, he dared to promise him the position of emperor. Even after a few years, he believed that Li Baihan would not break his promise to him.

But trust belongs to trust. Shen Hexi was still very upset when he heard that the empress dowager wanted to choose a concubine for him.Although the relationship between the two has not been revealed to the public, those who should know have already known it by now.After all, the two lived and ate together all these years. Anyone with eyes should be able to tell that the relationship between the two of them is unusual.

"Mother, have you heard some rumors?" Shen Hexi tried his best to make his voice sound smooth, but he still unconsciously lowered his voice when speaking.

Liu Qinghe is his mother, and she could tell her son's uneasiness at a glance, she patted Shen Hexi's slightly lowered head helplessly, "Why don't you tell mother at this point?"

"Mother, I like Brother Han. I have liked him since I was very young. I want to be with him." Shen Hexi raised his head and looked at Liu Qinghe and said firmly.

"Xi'er, do you understand what it means if you are with Han'er? You have to give up your Dunliang City for him, you have to give up your official career, and even your descendants for him." Liu Qinghe also recently joined Shen Yunping. Some rumors were heard over there, saying that Li Bohan intentionally kept Shen Hexi in the palace.When she heard the news at that time, she was struck by lightning. She was just such a son. If she entered the palace, then why had she paid so much for him over the years?Is it just to let him enter the palace?

For several days, Liu Qinghe was troubled by this matter. She was not reconciled, she was not reconciled to her son, who gave up everything for an emperor.So with today's she knocking on Shen Hexi, one is to hope that those rumors are false, and the other is to see if she can change his mind.

Now it seems that the rumors will definitely not be false, all that remains is for him to change his mind.

"Mother, I know you and your father are worried. Can you still trust Brother Han's character? Since he chose me and promised me the position of emperor, doesn't that mean that he treats me sincerely?" Shen Hexi pulled himself mother's hand, and continued to say, "I'm talking, mother, can you break up the matter of feelings? If it is true, why did you endure for so many years in Shen's mansion for your father? Isn't this a word of love?"

"How can this be the same." Liu Qinghe was about to refute, and suddenly said, "What, Han'er allows you to be the emperor." How is this possible, there was only one emperor in the history of Qingmu Kingdom, and that was hundreds of years ago The thing is, I heard that the emperor at that time and his emperor grew up together as childhood sweethearts. After the emperor ascended the throne, he defied all opinions and made the person he liked the emperor.According to legend, the two have been in power together for more than 40 years. Later, the emperor died of illness. The emperor also died of illness shortly after seeing the crown prince ascending the throne, but he was not buried in the emperor's mausoleum after his death. That seat was reserved for the mother and concubine of the crown prince of.

Since then, there has not been an emperor in Qingmu Kingdom. Even if there is an emperor who likes men, there are only servants, and the favored ones are no higher than the third rank, let alone those who are not favored. Entering the palace is just a plaything , the final fate is not as good as a court lady.

Because of this, when Liu Qinghe heard that Shen Hexi was going to enter the palace, she was in a hurry. How could her precious son let others abuse him like this, but if it was the emperor, it would be different.The power in the hands of the emperor is the same as that of the emperor, that is to say, if Li Baihan made Shen Hexi the emperor, it would be equivalent to giving half of the country to Shen Hexi.

"Yes, that's what Brother Han said, but I don't care." Shen Hexi said in a so-called manner, this seat is just for others to see.If Li Bohan didn't like him anymore, even if he gave him the position of emperor, he wouldn't mind it.

"You have mentioned this to your father."

"Uh, it seems not." Shen Hexi said with some embarrassment, how would he tell his father about this kind of thing, could it be that Shen Yunping, who ran away like a little girl, told him coquettishly that he was going to be Li Baihan's emperor.Just thinking about that scene gave him goosebumps.

Just as Liu Qinghe was happy, she said with a little disappointment, "Xi'er, you have to think about it clearly. Even if you become the emperor, the emperor's harem still has to accept concubines. How will you live in the harem from now on?" He also thought more than Shen Hexi, the emperor couldn't have no heirs, even if he liked her son, he still wanted to establish a concubine and leave an heir.When Li Baihan has a prince in the future, what will his son do at that time?

At that time, will her son who is like the proud son of heaven want to fight with a group of concubines?

"Uh, since brother Han likes me, how could I marry another woman." Shen Hexi said with some uncertainty.He really didn't think about this matter. In his opinion, since he likes him, why would he marry another woman to hinder his eyes? If that's the case, he doesn't want this emperor anymore. It's better to go back to his Dunliang city. It's hard to find three-legged toads, but aren't there too many two-legged men?Is he a majestic King Dunliang afraid that he won't find someone he likes?

Even though he thought so, Shen Hexi was very blocked in his heart.But mother is in front of her, and it's not easy to show her displeasure, so she can only force herself to laugh, "Don't worry, mother, if Brother Han really dares to marry the concubine, I will go back to Dunliang City directly, and I will never set foot in Yong'an City. "

"Xi'er." Liu Qinghe's eyes were a little red, it was all because of some evil.

Because the news of Li Baihan's choice of concubine was rumored in Yong'an City, Shen Hexi was not in the mood to go to the palace to meet Li Baihan, so he took people outside the city to give porridge early in the morning in the cold wind.Although the refugees outside the city still don't have enough to eat, they won't starve to death.

"Teacher, you said it would be great if so many refugees went to my Dunliang mansion. I don't have much land elsewhere." Shen Hexi couldn't help but feel a little heartbroken looking at the ragged refugees.This was all caused by the war. The flames of war burned their homes and scarred their fields.

Linghu stroked his mustache and said with a serious face, "When spring comes, these people will still go back to their ancestral home, but we don't know how many of them will go back alive."

"What did the teacher say?"

"These refugees don't even have food, so what if they return to their ancestral home? Can the imperial court build houses for them? Can the imperial court give them food and seeds for spring plowing?"

"Teacher, I have an idea. Why don't we post a list? People who have no land in their ancestral home can go to our Dunliang mansion. Before the harvest this year, I, the king of Dunliang, will take care of the food. As for the house, they will build it themselves, Dunliang. There are many stones and trees in the house, so it should not be difficult to build a house by yourself."

"My lord is doing the emperor a great favor. Now that there are so many refugees, many state capitals don't want them to go back to their ancestral home. After all, going back is a big trouble for those officials."

The master and apprentice, with a few words, solved the whereabouts of the refugees for Li Baihan and gave them a way to survive.

Time passed in the blink of an eye, and it was the Lantern Festival. The Empress Dowager said that the new emperor was enthroned, and the palace was very lively. This time, officials of the fifth rank and above were allowed to bring their family members to participate in the palace banquet of the Lantern Festival.

As soon as the Empress Dowager ordered it, the officials below understood that this was really planning to choose a concubine for the emperor.

"Han Zi, what has Xi'er been busy these days?" Li Baihan hadn't seen Shen Hexi since New Year's Eve. At first, he couldn't sleep for several hours at night because he had just ascended the throne and was busy with a lot of things. After entering the Shen family, he did not take the initiative to declare him into the palace.He and his mother have a good relationship. After such a long time, they should let the mother and son talk more.

But this person disappeared for six or seven days as soon as he left. He sent Han Zi to find someone, but he just said that he was busy and was entering the palace in a few days. No, but I can't delay to find someone by myself.

"This morning, King Dunliang went to give porridge outside the city. In the afternoon, he posted a list, saying that Dunliang Mansion has a large field that can be planted. If someone goes to farm, he will not give it away for nothing, until the grain is harvested. Rice." Han Zi said.

"This seems to be something that Xi'er can do. Why didn't you tell me about such a big thing." Li Bohan said with a smile on his lips.

"I haven't had time to tell you, Your Majesty." Han Zi was also wronged, he was busy with the emperor these two days like a spinning top, and the Empress Dowager came over to join him.

"By the way, didn't you ask you to take all the portraits to the Empress Dowager? What did she say." Li Bohan asked.

"I scolded Weichen and smashed the teacup."

"Hmph, she really takes herself seriously. This Qingmu country is surnamed Li and not Shen, so she is a bit lenient." Li Bai said with a cold face.

Li Baihan was very clear about what the empress dowager was planning, she wanted Shen's daughter to be the empress.Since she thinks that way, he will fulfill him, but it is not to be a queen, but to be an emperor, which is more powerful than being a queen.

"Go and tell her that the chair next to me must be named Shen to reassure her, but she doesn't need to worry about stuffing people around him."

Li Bohan's words really worked, until the Lantern Festival, the Empress Dowager did not give Li Bohan a gift.And Shen Hexi refused to enter the palace with various reasons. Li Baihan vaguely felt that something was wrong, but he didn't think it was wrong.He has already proposed marriage to Shen Yunping, no matter whether he agrees or not, he will announce to the world after the Lantern Festival that he wants to make Shen Hexi the emperor.

Everything seemed to be going well, but no one expected that there would be troubles during the Lantern Festival.
