Chapter 203 New Years
In the evening, Feng Shaojun disguised himself as Xiaoxi and went back to Prince Qin's mansion.

On New Year's Eve at the end of the year, every household posts blessings and Spring Festival couplets and sets off firecrackers.The New Year's Eve banquet in the mansions of dignitaries and dignitaries was even more lively.Prince Qin's Mansion, which had been silent for half a year, also managed to pretend to be celebrating New Year's Eve.

The servants in the palace received double salaries, as well as brand-new cotton-padded clothes and shoes, and all of them had joyful expressions on their faces.

The "long-term sick" King Qin and Princess Qin sat together, with delicious food and wine piled up in front of them, but the couple had no appetite.One looked gloomy, and the other was full of sorrow.

Emperor Long'an severely punished King Qin, which was good for the grandsons of King Qin's mansion.There is a grand banquet in the palace tonight, and the emperor's grandchildren are all called into the palace.

As for Qin Wang and his wife, they don't have such blessings.

Eunuch Shen, who came to deliver the oral order, made it clear: "The emperor has ordered that His Royal Highness King Qin is still recuperating from illness, so it is not appropriate to leave the palace. The Queen Mother Qin Wang can take care of His Royal Highness, and there is no need to enter the palace."

At the palace banquet at the end of the year in previous years, Qin Wang and his wife were the eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law of the Tian family, how proud they were.Compared with the current desolation, it is tantamount to heaven and earth.

Concubine Qin has not been out of the mansion for half a year, and with the death of her sad youngest son, she has become much thinner and haggard.She dressed up specially tonight, but she couldn't hide the loneliness in her eyes: "Your Highness, today is the end of the year, and this concubine would like to respect Your Highness."

King Qin twitched the corners of his mouth sarcastically: "The king of Yan, the king of Zhao, and the king of Han have all gone to the palace banquet, and this king can only sit in his own palace. It doesn't matter if you don't drink this wine!"

The words are full of resentment.

Princess Qin ordered all the palace servants to retreat, and then said in a low voice: "It's hard to guarantee that the mansion doesn't have the eyes and ears of my father. Your Highness should be careful about what you say, if it reaches my father's ears, it will be unsightly."

The muscles on King Qin's face twitched a few times, and his eyes became colder and colder.

Princess Qin felt startled when she saw it, and continued to comfort her in a warm voice: "If you keep the green hills, you won't be afraid that there will be no firewood for burning. Your Royal Highness has not calmed down yet, so please wait patiently."

What if I don't wait?

The imperial power is great.Even if you are a prince, when you are severely punished by the emperor, you can only bow your head and accept the punishment.Could it be possible to rush out of Prince Qin's mansion and into the palace?
Who Emperor Long'an likes and which prince he is willing to promote depends on his heart.Who can do nothing to win the emperor?
The more King Qin thought about it, the more frustrated he became. Impatiently, he looked at Princess Qin's face again, and got up expressionlessly: "It's getting late, and the princess should settle down early. The king has something else to do, so I'm going to the study to call the staff to discuss matters."

After speaking, he walked away.

Qin Wangfei was also very angry, and gave a low pooh at Qin Wang's back.

Being grounded for half a year, there is something wrong!

Obviously, he went to the study to toss the boy!

……

This New Year, King Qin is as frustrated as King Yan is.

On the first day of the new year, the emperor held a grand court meeting, leading civil and military officials to sacrifice to the heaven and the Taimiao.On the day of the second day of junior high school, King Yan accompanied Concubine Yan back home and stayed at Yuan's house for a day.

Then, starting from the third day of junior high school, an endless stream of officials came to congratulate the new year, far more than in previous years.

To be an official in the court, the most important thing is to figure out the sacred will of the Sacred Heart.Emperor Long'an praised the King of Yan everywhere, and his intention to establish a crown prince was clearly revealed.All the officials came to Yan Wang's mansion to flatter and flatter horses, which was a matter of course.

As for King Qin, he was imprisoned for half a year and didn't come out, and he didn't see anyone in the New Year.Except for a few hard-core King Qin henchmen, everyone else wished they could bypass King Qin's mansion while walking.

However, King Yan was not ostentatious, and kept a low profile.Among the officials who came to celebrate the New Year, very few of them could see King Yan.After the eighth day of the lunar new year, King Yan went to the Ministry of Punishment to do business.

You said that the king of Han was angry, and he scolded King Yan in front of King Zhao: "Putting fame! Pretentious! Hypocrisy! He is the only one who is diligent and diligent. Before the Shangyuan Festival, he went to the Yamen to work. This is not a success Does the heart trample you and me into the dust? Bah!"

King Zhao glanced at King Han with his small eyes squeezed into slits by the fat, and sighed: "Fourth brother, don't say anything. You have seen the fate of elder brother. This time, I don't know how long I will be locked up before I can come out." .Now the second brother is the most favored by the emperor, you and I have to stay away from each other, and we have to be careful when we speak in private."

"Second brother has been in charge of the criminal department for many years, and he has good eyes and ears. What you and I say today will reach second brother's ears tomorrow. Maybe it won't be long before we have to submit to Seoul."

These words seemed to be consoling, but in fact they turned on fire.

The arrogant King of Han sneered again and again: "They are all princes, he is only a few years older than me. I am not afraid of him!"

Zhao Wang sighed again: "What's the use of talking about it now. On the first day of this year, the emperor directly ordered the second elder brother to lead all the officials to sacrifice to heaven and sacrifice to the Taimiao. I think it will not be long before the second elder brother will be appointed as the crown prince." .At that time, how can we not bow our heads to the second brother?"

King Han's eyes flashed, and he snorted inexplicably.

Zhao Wang lowered his voice and said: "Eldest brother is too courageous. He actually concocted a murder case to lure second brother to Pingjiang mansion, and then ambushed and assassinated second brother on the way. Fortunately, second brother is safe and sound, otherwise, I don't know what kind of chaos it would be now. "

it's a pity!
It would be great if King Yan was stabbed to death on the boat that day.

A trace of gloom flashed across Han Wang's handsome face.

The next day, the King of Han entered the palace to pay his respects to Empress Dowager Cao.The mother and the son sang together, coaxing the aged Empress Dowager Cao into joy.

"Grandson is really reluctant to part with the emperor's grandmother," said the handsome face of the King of Han, which was always unfavorable among women, and he coaxed the 80-year-old Empress Dowager Cao to be equally eloquent: "Grandson wants to stay in the capital and accompany the emperor's grandmother. "

The only one who can stay in the capital to accompany the queen mother is the prince.

The intention of the King of Han to say these words is clearly visible.

Empress Dowager Cao said cheerfully: "The emperor is also reluctant to part with your brothers. That's why he hasn't established a crown prince for a long time, and keeps you brothers by his side."

The king of Han simply made his words more obvious: "Father always wants to establish a heir. Grandmother, what do you think of your grandson?"

The Empress Dowager Cao, who was dressed in a red palace dress with silvery white hair and powder, squinted her old eyes and looked Han Wang up and down: "You are fine."

The king of Han was overjoyed: "Grandmother..."

"Look at the Ai family, King Qin, King Yan, and King Zhao are all good too." The Empress Dowager Cao said unhurriedly, "You four brothers have different personalities and tempers. It depends on the emperor's will to choose who to be the crown prince. Ai's family At this age, they are all people who are about to enter the soil. I can't control so much."

"It's a good thing for you to be self-motivated. Do your job well and work hard, and your father will definitely see it. Maybe, if your father is happy, he will make you the prince."

"At that time, you will be able to stay in the capital and accompany Aijia all the time."

King of Han: "..."

Saying this is the same as not saying it.

In short, Empress Dowager Cao will not support him anymore.

The King of Han swallowed sullenly, answering in a low voice.
