Chapter 202
As soon as the ministers of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of War left, Qian Liang was called into the palace.

Not long after, Emperor Changxing allowed the Ministry of Households to auction off those good things from Nanfengla.

Qian Liang hurried out of the palace again to make preparations.

"Chang Lu, get up and drive to Qingyun Palace."

Even though Imperial Concubine Qing always had a bad face, Emperor Changxing liked to rest in Qingyun Palace more and more.

At least there's no one to bother you now and then, and you can get a good night's sleep.

After sleeping for two hours, Emperor Changxing's spirit improved a lot.After getting up, he talks about it and is unwilling to leave.

"Isn't it just to practice?" Concubine Qing had just finished practicing the sword, and she was very disdainful of Emperor Changxing's distress, "You can continue to draw lots like last time."

Whoever catches it can go there, it all depends on God's will.

Fair and just, no one can say anything.

Emperor Changxing pondered for a while, then took Changlu back to the imperial study.

Not long after, except for the seventh prince Chen Xiujian who had already led troops west to quell the chaos, the other seven adult princes arrived together.

Looking at his handsome sons, Emperor Changxing was very satisfied.

He gave some encouragement before letting Chang Lu hold the imperial box prepared in advance.

"Emperors, let's draw lots, and practice wherever you catch them. When you come back from training next year, I hope you can all make progress..."

At least don't be pulled too far by the courtiers below.

Another lottery?

The princes looked at each other.

It is said that the candidate who left the city on behalf of the emperor last time was drawn by lot.

It's just that no one in the high gates of Xingji City believes it.

Everyone suspected that Emperor Changxing was warning those restless princes, so he chose Chen Xiujian who had almost no mother background...

But soon all the princes couldn't care less about complaining about Emperor Changxing's choice.

next year!

The seven people chanted the word together.

In other words, they had to leave this bustling Xingji City for at least a year.Moreover, the destination is determined in the form of lottery.

In case you're going west or north...

"Father, the sons and ministers come first."

Chen Xiuzhu waited for a while, and saw that his eldest brother, King Qin, had not moved his feet, so he was the first to go forward.

He stayed in Xingluo County for several months last year, only twelve months a year.

Chen Xiuzhu was fearless.

"South, south."

He prayed silently as he reached into the box.

"West or North."

The other princes came back to their senses and quickly muttered secretly.

After a while, Chen Xiuzhu took out a square made of agarwood from the imperial box.

He turned around and wrote two large characters on it with a Chinese ink pen.

Tamaki.

"Your Majesty," Chang Lu reminded, "The place where His Highness King Qi practiced is Yumu County in the north."

hum!
The other princes immediately beamed with joy.They looked at each other with happiness in their eyes.

Emperor Changxing nodded, "Next."

King Qin looked around.

Apart from their father and son, Changlu was the only person in the imperial study room, and there were no traces of the little eunuchs and imperial guards who had served in the past.It seems that the Queen's reminder has not been obtained.

He hesitated to step forward, and took out a cube from the box.

As soon as he turned his hand, King Qin's face changed drastically.

Goose back!

"Your Majesty, the place where His Royal Highness King Qin practiced is Yanhui County in the north."

"Very good." Emperor Changxing nodded, "Come on, Meige."

"Father," Qin Wang Chen Xiumei couldn't help but said, "Didn't you go to practice alone?"

The other princes could not help stretching their necks.

If everyone is going to such a dangerous place as the north or the west, why is there a need to draw lots?
Emperor Changxing glared at King Qin and sighed silently in his heart.

A long time ago, Liubu and Taishifu had proposed to establish a prince as soon as possible to stabilize the country.

He also wanted to establish a prince early, but things backfired.

King Qin was born of the empress and also the eldest son. He was supposed to be the most legitimate successor of the Yunchui Empire.

However, King Qin has not taken any responsibility since he was a child. Even though he has become a relative or even a father now, he still has no idea of ​​what to do, and he is even more afraid of it.

This doesn't look like the king of a country.

Emperor Changxing honored the old and the young in order.But the establishment of the crown prince was related to the foundation of the Yunchui country, so he had to act cautiously, and in the end he could only procrastinate.

"Did I tell you that each of you went in the same direction?" Emperor Changxing said angrily, "Next!"

King Qin shrank his neck and quickly stepped back, not daring to say anything more.

The other princes suddenly envied Chen Xiujian, the seventh prince who had gone west to quell the chaos.

No matter how chaotic the four western counties are, there will be a bunch of mobs, and there are no Beixiong, Japanese pirates, or Xiliang people to be afraid of.

But no matter how envious they are, it's hard for them to say anything at this meeting, so they can only obediently go to draw lots first.In case of really catching a dangerous place, let the biological mother or natal family find a way.

It didn't take long for the seven princes to get their whereabouts.

Jin Wang Chen Xiulan, who was fat and fat, had the best fate, and he went to Guangxin County in the south.

Ha ha.

Facing the envious eyes of his brothers, his chubby face almost turned into a flower.

I heard that the weather in the south is sultry, and the girls are always enthusiastic, and they wear extremely thin clothes...

The most important thing is that Guangxin is thousands of miles away from Xingji City, and the concubine Jin's knife at home can't cut to the south no matter how fast and how long it is.

Soon the princes left the palace, and the gates of Xingji City suddenly became busy.

As soon as the morning court ended the next day, the eighth prince's mother and concubine broke into the front hall crying.

Mmmm!
"Your Majesty," Ming Guifei shook Emperor Changxing while rubbing her red eyes, "You know that my eighth son has been weak since he was a child, and he can't sleep even in dry or cold weather. You let him go to the Yanzhen Fortress in the west, don't you?" Do you want his life..."

Emperor Changxing patiently listened to her.

After more than half an hour passed, he seemed unable to bear the woman's coquettishness, coughed a few times before saying: "Enough is enough."

"There is no joke. The old man went to Yanzhen Fortress by drawing lots by himself, and it was not my idea. If it is changed arbitrarily, what will the other princes think?"

"Your concubine, you are embarrassing me!"

Concubine Ming was overjoyed: "Your Majesty, my concubine also knows that this is difficult."

"But as long as you don't let the emperor go to that ghost fortress in the west, for example, to a warm and humid place in the south. No matter what you let the concubine do. And the concubine's natal family has made some money recently..."

Emperor Changxing nodded after hearing her Xu Xu finished speaking.

"I understand. If you still insist on the emperor's son not going to the west tomorrow, I will find a way."

The next day, before the morning court ended, Concubine Ming Xi Jinjin went to the front hall to wait.

It seems that something good happened in the early court, and Emperor Changxing was in a good mood after the next court.

He asked with a smile: "Concubine Ming still insists on not letting the Eighth Emperor go to Yanzhen Fortress?"

Concubine Ming nodded quickly, "Your Majesty, it's not that the emperor wants to go, it's that he doesn't adapt to the climate in the west. As long as you don't let him go to Yanzhen Fortress, no matter what kind of concubine he wants to be."

Emperor Changxing was silent for a while, "Even if you are willing to be demoted to a commoner?"

"Yes!" Concubine Ming replied impatiently.

Soon she realized that her pretty face suddenly became as pale as paper.

"What did you say, Your Majesty, to be demoted to a commoner?"

Emperor Changxing nodded: "If the Eighth Emperor is not the prince, then he doesn't have to go to the Yanzhen Fortress in the west."

"Chang Lu," he asked the old eunuch, "is my approach reasonable?"

Chang Lu grinned: "As the saying goes, you can find a job in your position. The princes have enjoyed the glory of the empire since they were young, so they should do their part for the country."

Concubine Ming walked away precariously.

When the news spread, the entire Xingji City suddenly became as quiet as water.
