Chapter 88 Too Impatient
"I'm talking nonsense?" Mrs. Xu stood up holding the armrests, and was about to smash Eunuch Xu with his crutches, "Then if it's not you, who else will talk about it? If it's not you, who else will the Second Highness know?" Is it? The old man beat you to death today! It's a thing that kills offspring!"

Eunuch Xu was dumbfounded.

Rao knew that Mrs. Xu was very temperamental, and would never give in when arguing with the emperor. In this quarrel between the monarch and his ministers, teachers and students, Eunuch Xu was on the imperial errand, and he had seen a lot in the past few years.

But when he really saw the heavy crutches greeting him, Eunuch Xu was still shocked.

Beating people in the royal study.

The old lady is crazy!

Eunuch Xu wanted to hide behind the dragon chair, but he really didn't have the courage, so he could only move left and right: "You can't do this, you can't do this!"

Fan Taibao and Huang Taishi were also taken aback, and quickly came to their senses, one left and one right to stop Xu Taifu.

The three old men are all in their early [-]s plus their ages, and their bodies are really not flexible.

Coupled with the few servants who rushed in after hearing the sound, they held up Mrs. Xu and broke the chaos.

Eunuch Xu hid behind a few people, wanted to say something, looked at the emperor's extremely gloomy face, and kept his mouth shut.

At this time, if you light a fire, it is easy to burn yourself.

Master Xu was panting, his old face turned blue.

Grand Master Huang thought about it, and then said, "Why don't you go visit His Highness first? Let the Taibao go with you, sir?"

Fan Taibao also hurriedly agreed: "Yes, my lord, I will go with you to see His Highness first."

Xu Taifu was persuaded by the two, his eyes fell on the emperor from the beginning to the end, and he insisted: "Your majesty, this eunuch..."

Before the old matriarch finished speaking, the emperor frowned, and said to Eunuch Xu: "Don't get in the way of the majesty's eyes, don't get out of here!"

Eunuch Xu bowed and withdrew.

Taifu Xu saw it, and sighed in his heart.

The emperor still protects the eunuch.

Just such a thing and that monster way, in front of the emperor all day, how can the emperor not let them be fascinated?

Taifu Xu wanted to say something, but was finally persuaded by Fan Taibao who said "Worry about Your Highness" and "I don't know what else the imperial doctor said" on the right. After the emperor nodded, he and Fan Taibao retired together. go out.

Grand Master Huang didn't leave, and when only he and the emperor were left in the imperial study, he said softly: "Your Majesty, the Tai Tuo cares about His Highness, so he will be disrespectful in front of the imperial court."

"I know," the emperor said indifferently, "the Tai Tuo values ​​Yuan'er very much."

Grand Master Huang said again: "Is what the Grand Tutor said true? Eunuch Xu really mentioned His Royal Highness and that girl of the Qin family that day..."

"Just said it casually," the emperor gave Huang Taishi a glance, "it's impossible for me to do that. I don't know where Qi'er heard something. I will ask him to come and ask."

Grand Master Huang lowered his eyes and pursed his lips.

Say it casually?
Without the emperor's thoughts in it, Mr. Xu would just say it casually?
As a veteran of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Huang Taishi knew the emperor's character very well.

In his opinion, the emperor is a good emperor.

The Great Zhou Dynasty was built on the messy and scorched land of the previous dynasty. What it needs is an emperor who can stabilize the territory, revitalize the internal affairs, and slowly plan.

Emperor Qingyuan ascended the throne for 20 years, and he did it.

But the emperor was also worried.

The eldest son, Zhao Yuan, was weak, the second son, Zhao Qi, was not a successor to the throne, the third time, Zhao Cheng was young, but in terms of aptitude, he was far inferior to the emperor at the same age, and the rest of the princes were getting younger.

Most of the courtiers were veterans, and they all followed the late emperor to conquer the north and south before the opening of the court, and each of them spoke harder and harder than the other.

The emperor was controlled by them, so there are people like Deng Guoshi and Xu Gonggong.

Checks and balances, supervision and deterrence.

A very common method in imperial power.

There is nothing wrong with the emperor's choice.

Just too impatient...

How many years can the old bones be tough?

The emperor should be more patient.

Today's situation, to put it bluntly, the emperor was impatient, and asked Eunuch Xu to say that he came to spy on someone, whether the stabbing was bloody or not, Grand Master Huang didn't know, but it was heard in the ears of the Second Highness, and turned his head to the Great Highness.

"You..." Huang Taishi wanted to persuade the emperor to be patient again, but he swallowed the words.

The emperor does not like to hear others say his "wrong".

Let the emperor be quiet for a while.

It is better not to mention it at the moment.

On the other side, Fan Taibao supported Taifu Xu, and went all the way to the palace of His Royal Highness.

Xu Taifu was depressed in his heart, and said: "The emperor can't continue to favor and trust those villains. They make trouble all day long, it's extremely abominable!"

Fan Taibao sighed.

He was also tired of Eunuch Xu and Guoshi Deng.

But he can't scold with Master Xu now.

Cursed, it seems to be easy to speak, but it is not good for Xu Taifu's body.

It was warm in the imperial study, but it was snowing thick and cold outside, one hot and one cold, no matter how excited the Taifu was, he would not be able to bear it.

"It's better to ask the empress dowager to come forward to persuade you," Fan Taibao suggested, "The emperor still listens to what the empress dowager says. Don't worry, wait and see the situation of His Highness first."

When the two of them came to see it, their hearts were half cold.

Zhao Yuan was seriously ill, worse than ever before.

The imperial doctors looked solemn, the Compassionate Ning Palace sent someone to ask, and the judge of the Children's Court was talking there.

Empress Cheng barely pulled herself together and asked, "How did the rumor come about?"

Fearing that Taifu would be excited, Fan Taibao told the story again.

"That girl from the Yongning Hou Mansion? That rumored Fenghuang Ming?" Empress Cheng was taken aback.

She has heard of it.

The emperor let Qin Luan marry Zhao Qi, this kind of behavior of ignoring and treating Zhao Yuan who is a descendant, Empress Cheng had no resentment.

But what's the use?
As a queen, neither the emperor nor the empress dowager liked her.

As a mother, her expectation for her son was never a dragon chair, but peace.

Zhao Yuan's character is that he will not be an emperor who doesn't care about everything. He will definitely be diligent and hardworking, but his body can be dragged down by the government in less than ten days and a half months.

Compete?

That is fatal!

Empress Cheng never dared to have such thoughts, so naturally she didn't care about phoenixes or ostriches.

But now, thinking of the seriously ill Zhao Yuan, Empress Cheng murmured: "Miss Qin's horoscope, can really save Yuan'er?"

Fan Taibao was stunned: "You..."

Master Xu came back to his senses: "Don't be confused! Your Highness told Mr. Min before he fell ill, did you forget?"

Empress Cheng bit her lip with extreme force.

His lips were bleeding, and his mouth was full of bloody smell.

she remembers.

Her kind and honest son didn't want to harm other people's girls.

She is proud of her son's character, but she also suffers from his illness.

"I made a slip of the tongue," Empress Cheng tremblingly said with tears in her eyes, "You two elders, just pretend you haven't heard of it."

Fan Taibao agreed.

Taifu Xu nodded, but his heart was not at ease.

In order to save her son, the mother is willing to cut flesh, in case His Highness gets worse...
