Tyrant [Rebirth]

The two stayed on the bed until noon, and there was a constant stream of people looking for Chu Shaoling outside, Wang Muhan couldn't handle it anymore, so he had to go inside and persuade him through the screen: "My lord, if you wake up, get up and eat some food."

Chu Shaoling pinched Wei Ji's earlobe, and lazily said, "What do you want to eat? Let them do it."

Wei Ji thought for a while and said, "Orange peel rabbit meat...and steamed ham."

Chu Shaoling twirled Wei Ji's earlobe: "I asked what you want to eat, what would you like to eat?"

Wei Ji smiled embarrassedly, and said, "Braised duck feet."

"Let's have another sliced ​​fish, and the soup should be white jade ball soup." Chu Shaoling sat up, "Have you written it down?

Wang Muhan hurriedly agreed outside: "I wrote it all down, did the servant ask someone to come in and serve him?"

"No, let people prepare to take a bath, and then eat after washing."

Wang Muhan agreed to go down.

Chu Shaoling took a bath with Wei Ji, and they couldn't help being intimate for a while, Wang Muhan urged them twice to come out of the clean room, and they ate in the inner room. Shaking his head: "Send them all, see you."

Wang Muhan was stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice: "There is a servant from the Ministry of Punishment..."

"No." Chu Shaoling interrupted, "I'm afraid there will be quite a few of these people in the next few days, so just stop them all and return all the gifts."

Wang Muhan had no choice but to agree, and said in a low voice: "Earlier this morning, Zi Junhou's mansion sent a few plates of seasonal fruits from their garden, saying that it was for the prince to try something new, and... the person who sent it said, Lord Hou will come tonight, and Duke Jing will also come if he can make it back."

Chu Shaoling nodded: "Understood."

Wang Muhan went to the concierge to explain Chu Shaoling's words, Wei Ji took a few mouthfuls of food and asked, "Your Highness...why don't you see those people, Your Highness doesn't know what's going on."

"What else can there be?" Chu Shaoling sneered, "It's either the one who has something to do with Chu Shaomo and rushes to get rid of it, or the one who is rushing to curry favor after seeing the downfall of the princes one after another. They don't usually have any contact with each other. At this time, I think of me. Why do you want to see me?"

Wei Ji pursed his lower lip, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness has no time to see you, so you can also let the prince and the father-in-law in charge receive it. Your Highness is like this... easy to attract people's attention."

"I don't have a good reputation, so I'm afraid I'll be arrogant and self-confessed." Chu Shaoling chuckled, "It's very difficult to maintain a comprehensive image in front of people, and if I'm not careful, I'll be tainted with right and wrong. Bad reputation, but it's easy to act like you don't bother to talk to anyone, and one day you will be flattered and grateful to someone if you are a little closer to someone, and... this is even more embarrassing."

Chu Shaoling served Wei Ji a small bowl of meatball soup and put it in front of him, mocking lightly: "Comparing the hatchback, it's much easier to be a bad guy."

Wei Ji hesitated for a while and didn't know what to say. He knew what Chu Shaoling said was wrong, but he couldn't refute it, and he felt that there was nothing wrong with what Chu Shaoling said.

If Wei Ji used to have a lot of things to say, but now Wei Ji can't, the closer he is to Chu Shaoling, the more he can understand him. Chu Shaoling's way of life is very extreme, and those who don't understand him will say that it is human Thinking viciously, but Wei Ji knew that Chu Shaoling's heart was hardened by those unsatisfactory days.

In the past, Wei Ji also felt that one should have kind thoughts in one's heart and tolerance in everything, but if Chu Shaoling did the same, he was afraid that there would be no dregs that had been gnawed by those people long ago. Lots of killings?Who doesn't want to live a life of luxury and luxury in peace and security?

Wei Ji gave Chu Shaoling a piece of stewed rotten duck paw, bowed his head and continued to eat.

Seeing that Wei Ji was silent, Chu Shaoling couldn't help teasing him, and said with a smile, "What's wrong? Shouldn't you use your benevolence, righteousness, etiquette and wisdom to persuade me at this time?"

Wei Ji shook his head: "The words of the sage are used by the emperor to educate others, so those who listen to the sage's teaching and do things... can't be the emperor."

These words fit Chu Shaoling's mind, and Chu Shaoling smiled: "When will you say such things?"

Wei Ji scooped up a ball with a small porcelain spoon and ate it, and said blankly, "This is written by His Highness himself on "The Analects of Confucius", and I didn't mean to look at it while reading...Did Your Highness forget?"

Chu Shaoling laughed: "What happened in my life, I don't remember, I haven't read "The Analects" for many years, but you saw it."

Wei Ji smiled: "At that time, I felt that what His Highness said was extreme, but now I think...it still makes sense. That sentence is a bit taboo, and I wiped it off Your Highness when I was reading."

Chu Shaoling rubbed Wei Ji's head, and the two of them went on to eat tacitly.

In the evening Zi Junhou really came, Chu Shaoling led the old master to the inner study, and said with a smile: "If grandfather has anything to do, just send someone else to talk about it, why bother to work."

"No, I can't say clearly in the letter. Now the old minister is not afraid of being discussed, and some things still need to be discussed with the prince face to face." Zi Junhou held the tea cup for a long time, and said in a low voice, "The old minister discussed with Jing Guogong yesterday. After a while, we all think...we can make preparations for Li Chu."

Chu Shaoling paused and said, "Why did grandfather think of this?"

Zi Junhou shook his head: "My lord, don't be careless. The emperor's holy body is slightly ill. At this time, the ministers should have asked for the appointment of the crown prince. Now the second prince is under house arrest in Tangquan Palace, and the third prince has already been imprisoned." In the Clan Mansion, the fourth prince cannot come back after convalescing on the fief, and the next two princes are nothing to be afraid of... This is a good time to ask for a seal for the prince."

Chu Shaoling took a sip of tea and said in a low voice: "To be honest, I have thought about it too, but the emperor...he still thinks about Chu Shaoruan."

Zi Junhou sighed: "This is what the old minister is afraid of. The emperor's health has not been very good since last year's serious illness, and now he has contracted this disease. The old minister is afraid that the emperor has already drawn up a will. His Highness's matter is settled, and one day Long Yu will return to heaven... Even if His Highness succeeds to the throne, it will not be justified."

Chu Shaoling continued the tea for Zi Junhou, and said with a smile: "Grandfather also understands that Emperor Father likes Chu Shaoruan more, so he will not make me the crown prince so easily."

Zijunhou shook his head: "It's so indistinguishable between the concubine and concubines, really, really..."

Chu Shaoling smiled lightly: "Grandpa, don't worry, although the emperor won't agree, but what should be done is still to be done. I have already ordered it, and tomorrow there will be a lot of papers asking the emperor to establish a reserve as soon as possible and stabilize people's hearts. .”

Zi Junhou understood Chu Shaoling's meaning, nodded and smiled, "Exactly... If the emperor keeps these documents and does not publish them, it will only provoke discussions from the government and the public, and the emperor will become more passive even if he does not establish a prince."

Chu Shaoling nodded: "That's what I want."

Compared with Zi Junhou, the Empress Dowager was more anxious. The emperor was ill and she was unwilling to say these words to offend the emperor, but the emperor did not approve any of them. This time Chu Shaomo broke into the palace and Chu Shaoling After making great achievements, the emperor did not praise Chu Shaoling a word, nor did he receive any rewards, as if it had never happened before. I don’t know what the emperor thinks in his heart... or he is not in a hurry, or he already has a prince he likes, so he has to tell the courtiers, what’s the matter with making those ministers mess up all day long?"

The emperor just drank the medicine and became more energetic. Hearing this, he became irritable again. After a moment of silence, he said calmly: "The empress... the harem is not allowed to participate in politics. This is the rule set by the ancestors."

There was a buzz in the queen mother's head, and the small Ru kiln bowl in her hand fell to the ground without holding it firmly. Nanny Sun hurriedly stepped forward to clean it up, and said with a smile: "The queen mother has been busy taking care of the emperor for the past two days. I can't keep up with food... I will ask you to cook another bowl."

"No need." The queen mother was extremely exhausted, she lightly supported her forehead and said coldly, "I'm afraid the emperor doesn't want to eat... The emperor is right. They also said the same thing to the Ai family! Let the Ai family do less trouble, if the Ai family heard these words that day, I am afraid that the emperor will have another good situation today."

The emperor regretted what he had said, and quickly changed his mouth: "Mother, don't be angry, I just said it casually..."

"When the emperor is not going well now, I'm afraid he will blame Aijia. What did he spend so much energy on that day? He has a reputation for meddling in politics." The queen mother helped Sun Nanny to stand up, and said, "The emperor taught me a lesson. Yes, the Ai family is ashamed of their ancestors, and will definitely not mention these things in the future."

The empress dowager walked out as she spoke, the emperor quickly got up to stop her, and said with a smile, "Mother, don't be angry, it's all your son's fault..."

"How can there be? How could the emperor have it?" The queen mother also laughed, and patted the emperor's hand, "The emperor said it very well, and the Ai family has also realized that the Ai family should not be involved in politics, and the Ai family should really take care of it." It's the harem..."

The Empress Dowager turned her head and walked out, telling Nanny Sun in a loud voice: "Take that poisonous woman, Concubine Li, to the small Buddhist hall of Ci'an Hall! I have been busy taking care of the Emperor Ai's family for the past two days and have not taken care of her trial. How dare you murder the emperor's heir?" , causing Concubine Zhen to have a difficult labor...hehe, the mourning family is going to have a seizure."

The emperor was startled when he heard the words, and before he could say anything, the queen mother and her party had already left the Chengqian Palace and headed for the Ci'an Palace.
