The rise of the prince

Chapter 476 The Emperor's Love
Li Xingzhou felt unhappy, frowned slightly, and emphasized again: "There is only one chance."

The old emperor's complexion was as frosty, and there was no disturbance, "I also said, no troops are allowed."

"." Li Xingzhou frowned, and the anger in his heart stagnated and became more and more intense. "I must send troops in the twelfth lunar month." He said seriously.

"I said no!" The emperor did not budge.

"Don't be in a hurry, let's discuss slowly, take your time, take your time." Tang Zhouwei smiled and persuaded repeatedly.

At this point, Li Xingzhou will not back down, because the opportunity is really only this time: "I am the transfer envoy of Jingbei, and I have the final say on whether or not to send troops on Jingbei Road."

"I am the current emperor!" The emperor slapped the table, a little sullen.

"I will be outside, and the emperor will not accept it." He replied.

"What general is outside, I am here, and I am here to order you not to send troops!" The emperor said coldly.

"It's only natural for the emperor to transfer foreign generals, but please issue an imperial decree, draft it in the Zhongshu Hanlin, draw it up with the emperor, pass the trial under the door, and hold it in the Shangshu, then I will naturally obey." Li Xingzhou turned back without hesitation.

"Bastard!" the emperor cursed.

"The emperor calms down, the emperor calms down, the prince's meaning is nothing more than that things must be in accordance with the rules, and there are rules and regulations. It has no other intention." Tang Zhou was so scared that he was sweating profusely, and hurriedly smoothed things over.

"Are you a general?" The emperor looked at him and said, "You are the blood of the Tian family, a descendant of the royal family, how many times do I have to say it before you can remember, this is a family matter, not a family, a country, and the world, I forbid you to send troops, Just not!"

Li Xingzhou felt that he was unreasonable, as if he had the advantage of equipment and was about to go up to start a team, and his teammates who only asked question marks behind him. He also knew that he couldn't get angry with the emperor, so he could only hold back his anger, cupped his hands and said, "I'll go first." Instruct the servants to arrange board and lodging, and you drink tea."

"These small matters are called steward arrangements." The emperor said with a blank expression.

"This is not the imperial palace. There is no management in my house." Li Xingzhou said, then bowed and retreated, leaving only the emperor with a bad face and a few people who dared not interrupt.

When he came outside the house, he took a deep breath, and the anger in his chest dissipated. At this time, the sky slowly started to snow again. He beckoned to the servant girl, and began to arrange accommodation for everyone. The emperor and empress would naturally live in the main courtyard, where he originally lived. , and now I have to move out.

And He Zhao, Tang Zhouwei, Wei Li and others who accompanied him should not be too shabby, after all, they were all high officials of the imperial court, and there were not enough things in the house, so he could only rack his brains to think about them, and then ordered people to buy them.

Originally, if he was in the palace, he would not have to do anything, Yan Yan and Shiyu would naturally help him prepare it, but now that no one is helping him with trivial matters, he feels that it is not easy, he wants poetry again, and he doesn't know when he can go back.

When you go back, you must have an in-depth exchange of feelings.

After arranging these trivial matters, he went back to the main hall to check the situation. Wang Tong took the emperor, He Zhao, Tang Zhouwei, and Wei Li to visit Tubi Villa, while the queen took He Qian to the house to talk.

Li Xingzhou stepped on the snow and slowly climbed to the corridor on the third floor of the West Courtyard. From here, he could see a large area of ​​Jiangzhou. Even in winter, there were not a few people coming and going, and it felt like there were people and horses.

He remembered that three months ago, Jiangzhou was different at that time, sparsely populated, the streets were dirty, and on the textile street, sometimes there were naked corpses, left to be bitten by bony, half-starved wild dogs. People care.

Every day in the market, there are people who are dressed in rags and sell their property. As long as they bid, they will sell, and they never bargain
That was Jiangzhou three months ago. Unlike now, chickens and dogs are singing together, and the bustling and bustling winter can't be overshadowed. The yamen servants dressed in black and green clothes, wrapped in leather armor, and carrying wax sticks are lined up in twos. Patrol the streets with snow.

These are his masterpieces, and the emotions are always two-way. The people are grateful and loved because he saved this place, but for Li Xingzhou, this place was rebuilt by him, with his hard work and pride.

The reason why he was so anxious was because he had a lot of contacts and understood too well how terrible the consequences would be if thousands of outlaws gathered in one place.

Li Xingzhou doesn't want this place full of holes and easy to get back on track to be destroyed again. I don't know how many people have suffered, how many families have been destroyed, and how many people have been displaced.

But he believes in his own knowledge, he has accumulated knowledge beyond this world for thousands of years, that is his

He never thought that a person like him would one day worry about the common people, "I'm probably a good person who was reincarnated." Li Xingzhou said to himself, "It's just that I didn't realize it at first."

"Hmph, it's getting worse and worse, even I contradict me!" In the back hall, the charcoal fire was warm, and the emperor's face was very bad. The queen made tea for him, and then sat down. Accompanied by the garden, he was old and couldn't stand the cold, so he asked Fu'an to send him back.

While making tea, the queen said, "Your Majesty, what's the matter?"

The emperor was dissatisfied and told what Li Xingzhou contradicted him before.

The queen listened without interrupting, waited for the tea to be made and handed it to the emperor before she said: "He is also thinking about the country and the country. Although he is young and impatient, he also wants to share the worries for His Majesty."

The emperor did not speak.

The queen continued: "That child thinks so far, even the concubine can't think of it, the land of dark clouds, but the long-cherished wish of generations of emperors, just like Xingzhou said, if the disaster is not eliminated at this time, it will implicate the north to send troops next year. "

"Of course I know." The emperor said: "But I am the son of heaven, and I have fought for the stability of Jiangshan Sheji. He is not the only one who has fought. He also knows that sending troops in winter is extremely risky, especially when the mountains are blocked by heavy snow, and the troops are easily exhausted. hour.

Not to mention fighting, the vast snowfield, if you don't pay attention, you will lose your way, and the snow is also very dangerous, and it is difficult to provide food and grass.If he has 5000 or more people, several times the number of Montenegro bandits, I will naturally let him go. "

The emperor said with a serious face. Speaking of this, the queen was also speechless, because she has always been the one who protects her grandson the most.

"Hmph, he is capable and courageous, but he can't see where he is. He is the blood of the Tian family! My only blood!" The emperor said and shook his head: "The blood of the Tian family must know how to cherish itself, the king Unkind, what is the life of an ordinary person?
He was in such a hurry to go, because he took ordinary people too seriously!He was born to be the grandson of the heavenly family, and he was above ten thousand people. The fate of ten thousand people is nothing to worry about. I don't know when he will understand this truth. "

The emperor took a sip of tea while talking, the queen remained silent, and after a while, the charcoal fire in the room was beeping, and she arrived: "The concubine actually understands the emperor's thoughts, the child is still young, and always wants to protect it. The concubine is taking care of me, this time it's the emperor's turn."

"I'm not protecting him, I'm just mad at him for being confused." The emperor retorted expressionlessly.

The queen nodded, and continued: "But when I saw that child today, it has only been three months, but he is very different. I can't help feeling that time flies, time flies, and it changes in the blink of an eye.

Children at this age grow the fastest and think the most, but some things cannot be arranged for them by our elders after all. "

The queen stood up and walked slowly to the door, looking at Bai Xue in the courtyard: "The emperor can arrange for him to marry Wang Yue's granddaughter, and he has to be protected by the old officials. He also took the opportunity of the Meiyuan Poetry Club to force He Zhao to marry his daughter and get a new one." The minister loves to be heavy.

With the emperor's arrangement like this, he has almost no worries, even if he is an idle dandy, he can enjoy his life for a lifetime.

But Your Majesty, there are some things we can't do for him after all, what he thinks, what he does, what he wants, we can't replace it, and we can't arrange it, a child who hasn't fallen can't run fast."

The emperor fell silent, and the empress looked at the snow scene in front of the door and did not speak.

"It's usually you who spoiled him, why now?"

"Now he is no longer a child, Your Majesty. Xingzhou is going to get married this year, and he is already seventeen years old." The queen said with a kind smile on her face, and said with emotion: "In the blink of an eye, he has grown so big. Your Majesty and I are both When I get old, there are some things that I have to let go even if I don’t want to let go.”

If it were someone else, they would not dare to say such a thing even if they had ten guts, but she is Empress Wu, who has been with His Majesty all her life, has gone through many twists and turns, and has the kingdom of abundance in the middle of Shu as her backing.

The emperor also got up slowly, and walked to the door. The snow scene in the small courtyard was just right: "I am a little scared. The capital was besieged by King Wu ten years ago, and I have never been so worried about gains and losses.
It is because Lin Wang Cheng'an died of illness when he was old; Xiao Wang Chengshe died fighting for me; Yu'er had no ambitions and was idle;
I want to see more, but he is the only one who can see. Jiangshan, Sheji, and the sacrifices of the heavenly family cannot be absolutely in my hands, otherwise he will be a sinner through the ages. What face does he have to meet his ancestors? "

The emperor said softly: "Huaixuan, I'm cold."

The queen gently took his withered hand, covering it with both hands.

"The world is ruthless, how can it not be cold?"
