The ministers begged me to ascend the throne

After hearing Zheng Qian's words, He Xiang choked a mouthful of tea into his throat in shock, and coughed violently.

"Cough cough cough cough... what are you talking about... cough cough cough..."

Zheng Qian repeated what he said just now: "I want to be the accompanying reader of His Majesty the Tenth Highness, please help me, Uncle."

He Xiang hurriedly put down the teacup in his hand, took out a handkerchief from his arms and wiped the corners of his mouth.

"You want to be the companion of the Tenth Prince?"

Zheng Qian nodded and said: "That's right, I know Uncle can help me." The eldest brother's official position is too small, so please help him, but the eldest brother can't help at all.So, he came directly to He Xiang for help.In fact, it is also possible to ask his father for help, but his father is in his hometown, and it is too slow to write letters back and forth, and he can't wait.

The eldest brother said that today the lord will go to Taixue with the fourth prince. He waited in Taixue for a whole day but did not wait for the lord.The elder brother only told him when he came back in the evening that the fourth prince had something to do today and he didn't take the lord to the Imperial Academy.The eldest brother also said that the lord went to Baihe Temple today.In Baihe Temple, the lord was assassinated, but luckily nothing happened.

After hearing about these things, Zheng Qian became more determined to stay by Zhao Yao's side.If he was by the lord's side, he would never put the lord in danger.

"Brother Qian, why do you want to be the companion of the Tenth Highness?" He Xiang didn't know that Zheng Qian wanted to recognize the Tenth Highness as the lord, and he was very curious why Zheng Qian wanted to be the companion of the Tenth Highness.

"His Highness the Tenth is my lord."

He Xiang couldn't believe his ears, and asked in surprise, "What did you say?"

"The tenth prince is my lord!" In order for He Xiang to hear clearly, Zheng Qian raised his voice and said it again, "The tenth prince is my lord!"

"My lord, His Highness the Tenth?" He Xiang asked in amazement, "Why do you think His Highness the Tenth as your lord?"

"My lord beat me in chess, he is smarter than me, so he is my lord." Zheng Qian's reason was very simple and rude.

"Just because the tenth prince beat you at chess?"

"Yes."

"Are you serious?"

"Seriously, His Highness the Tenth Highness is the lord I'm looking for!" Zheng Qian looked very serious.

"Did you tell your father about this?"

"My father said that no matter who I recognize as the master, he doesn't care." Zheng Qian said, "My father also said that if I recognize the master, I will assist the master well and be loyal to the master for the rest of my life."

He Xiang complained to Zheng Xilin in his heart: This old fox is really cunning and cunning.

"Uncle, I know that the lord is not very favored, and there are no ministers in the court to support him, but I don't care." Zheng Qian said very seriously, "No matter what the lord wants to do in the future, I will follow him."

He Xiang looked at Zheng Qian, and saw firmness in his eyes.He knew that the child was serious about recognizing the tenth prince as his lord.

"Brother Qian, things are not as simple as you think."

Zheng Qian asked suspiciously, "What do you mean?"

"The matter of the Tenth Highness is not as simple as what you see, understand?" He Xiang said, "You are Zheng Xilin's son, if you recognize the Tenth Highness as the lord, you will bring trouble to the Tenth Highness."

Zheng Qian frowned slightly when he heard this.He didn't quite understand what He Xiang meant, so he asked, "Uncle, what do you mean by that?"

He Xiang had some things to say to Zheng Qian, so he could only say bluntly: "Brother Qian, even if I help you recommend you to the emperor to be the companion of the ten princes, the emperor will not agree."

"Why?" Zheng Qian asked puzzledly, "I'm so smart, why doesn't the emperor agree to me being the lord's companion?"

"I just said that you are the son of Zheng Xilin, and you will bring trouble and even danger to the tenth prince if you follow him." He Xiang added, "You should know the situation your elder brother will face after he enters the court and becomes an official. Then you should be clear that if you go to accompany the tenth prince to read, the eyes of the court ministers will all turn to the tenth prince, and you should know what kind of trouble it will bring to the tenth prince."

What He Xiang said made Zheng Qian silent.

"You are the youngest son of Zheng Xilin. If you accompany the Tenth Prince, you will send a signal to the court ministers that your father, Zheng Xilin, supports the Tenth Prince." He Xiang patiently analyzed for Zheng Qian, " You also said just now that the tenth prince is not very favored, and there are no ministers in the court to support him. That is to say, the tenth prince has no power in the court. Do you think the crown prince or the acting king, or the third prince and others Seeing that you support the tenth prince as the lord, will they let the tenth prince go?"

Zheng Qian didn't think of this, and Zheng Rang and the others didn't think of it either.

"The tenth prince is only a six-year-old child now. What he needs now is to grow up safely, not to be a counselor, understand?" He Xiang told Zheng Qian the most crucial point. "If you really want to recognize the tenth prince as your lord, then you have to think about him first, don't you?"

Zheng Qian opened his mouth and said, "Yes." What He Xiang said just now, Zheng Qian felt was right.

"Then don't recognize the tenth prince as your lord for the time being, and don't get close to the tenth prince." He Xiang said softly, "When the tenth prince grows up, it won't be too late for you to recognize him as your lord."

"But..." Zheng Qian knew that He Xiang's words were right, but he felt a little unwilling.He found his lord, but because his father was famous, he couldn't recognize the lord, let alone get close to the lord, it was... so unfair.

He Xiang saw the disbelief in Zheng Qian's eyes, and said gently, "Brother Qian, before you recognize the tenth prince as your lord, there are actually many things you can do for the tenth prince."

Zheng Qian's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "What can I do for the Lord?"

"Read and study. I know you are extremely smart, but you are not good at everything. If you want to assist the Tenth Prince in the future, then you have to learn a lot." He Xiang smiled kindly at Zheng Qian, "You play chess Losing to the Tenth Prince means that your art of war is not outstanding, and if you want to be the adviser of the Tenth Prince in the future, you must at least know the art of war, right?"

"Yes! I will study hard!" Zhao Yao had already remembered what Zhao Yao said to Zheng Qian before, and he made up his mind to study the art of war.

"Think about what you need to know as a counselor, and what you know." He Xiang saw Zheng Qian thinking, stroked his beard, and continued, "Brother Qian, although you are better than your father Smart, but you don't read as many books as your father. If you want to help the Tenth Prince properly in the future, then you have to read more and study more."

Zheng Qian understood He Xiang's words, he stood up and bowed to He Xiang: "Thank you uncle for teaching."

Seeing that Zheng Qian had listened to his words, He Xiang smiled gratifiedly: "A child can be taught."

Zheng Qian sat down again, and asked straight to the point: "He Xiang, the lord is not unfavored, but deeply loved by the emperor, right?" Through He Xiang's words just now, Zheng Qian confirmed the guess in his heart , but he still wanted to hear what He Xiang said in person.

He Xiang frowned slightly in surprise, "Brother Qian, why do you think so?"

"Uncle, you just said that the emperor would not allow me to be the lord's companion because I would bring trouble and danger to the lord. Isn't that enough to show that the youngest son whom the emperor loves the most is the lord?" Things are not interesting, but it doesn't mean he doesn't understand anything.

Facing Zheng Qian's see-through eyes, He Xiang didn't say the words of denial.

Brother Qian is too smart, it's hard to fool him.Besides, what he said before is very clear.

Seeing that He Xiang didn't speak, Zheng Qian knew he had guessed right.

"I know what I should do next." After speaking, he stood up and said goodbye to Xiang He, "Uncle, I won't disturb you anymore, I'll go back first."

He Xiang reminded Zheng Qian in the tone of an elder: "Brother Qian, study hard in Taixue."

Zheng Qian did not directly respond to He Xiang's words, but said: "There are still many good books in the library of Taixue, and I will read them carefully."

He Xiang said with a smile: "I also have some good books here, you can come to my place to read anytime."

Zheng Qian was not polite at all: "Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely come to you to borrow books to read." After speaking, he saluted again and left He Xiangfu immediately.

Zheng Rang and Zheng Cheng had been waiting at home for Zheng Qian's return, and when they saw that he had finally returned, they hurriedly asked, "Uncle, did you agree?"

Zheng Qian shook his head and said, "No."

After hearing this, Zheng Rang and Zheng Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked curiously, "Uncle, why didn't you agree?"

"Uncle said that I'm Zheng Xilin's son, if I were to accompany the lord, it would bring trouble or danger to the lord." Zheng Qian said, with a disgusted expression on his face, "Having a famous father is really troublesome. "He can't follow the lord now because of his father.Zheng Qian regretted that he didn't change his name and surname before arriving in the capital.

Zheng asked them to agree.

Since coming to the capital, they have deeply realized how famous their father is.

"Then what are you going to do next?" Zheng Rang carefully observed Zheng Qian's expression, and guessed, "I don't think you look like you are going to give up." If you are the master, you are no longer a younger brother.

Zheng Cheng suddenly asked in horror: "Little brother, you don't want to go directly to the palace to find the emperor, do you?"

Zheng Qian gave Zheng Cheng a disdainful look: "Even if I want to go directly to the palace to find the emperor, can I get in?" Can anyone enter the palace casually?He is Zheng Xilin's youngest son, but without a badge, he can't enter the palace casually.

"That's right, you can't enter the palace." Zheng Cheng was immediately relieved.

"Uncle suggested that I should not get close to the lord before the lord grows up, and let me study more..." Zheng Qian told Zheng Rang what he said to him.

Zheng Rang nodded and said: "I think what uncle said is very correct. Although you are smarter than dad, you do not have as many books as dad, and you are not as experienced as a counselor. You should study hard."

"Don't worry, I will study hard in Taixue." After leaving He Xiangfu, Zheng Qian made some decisions. "I won't come to the door to provoke again." Before the lord grows up, he must keep a low profile, and he can no longer be as high-profile as before.

After hearing this, Zheng Rang and Zheng Cheng stretched out their hands to touch Zheng Qian's forehead in unison.

"If you don't have a fever, how can you start talking nonsense?"

Zheng Qian knocked off the hands of the two elder brothers, and said with a serious face: "I will concentrate on studying in the future."

Zheng Rang and Zheng Cheng could see that Zheng Qian was serious.The two were very relieved, but at the same time they were a little... not used to it.

"Brother, I hope you will tell me about the affairs of the court when you come back from get off work every day." Zheng Qian's tone was very solemn, "I want to know what happened in the court." He is always aware of the movements in the court, so He can help the lord better in the future.

Zheng Rang agreed without any hesitation: "Okay, I will tell you." The younger brother is smarter than him, tell him what happened in the court, he may be able to see what he didn't find.

"Thank you bro!"

Hearing Zheng Qian's thanks, Zheng Rang was very surprised, and immediately raised his hand and patted him on the back lightly.

"Why are you being polite to Big Brother?"

"Big Brother, Second Brother, I'm going back to my room."

Looking at the back of Zheng Qian leaving, Zheng Cheng sighed: "I suddenly feel that my little brother has grown up all of a sudden."

"Yeah, I became mature all of a sudden." Zheng Rang said with a light smile, "My little brother has decided that His Royal Highness is the Lord." For His Highness, he is not only willing to study hard, but also willing to restrain his temper. Really... He suddenly felt a little jealous of His Highness the Tenth Highness.

The Tenth Highness played two games of chess with the younger brother, and then hooked the younger brother's soul away, really...he regretted asking the Tenth Highness to come down to play chess with the younger brother.

The next day, after the court, He Xiang went to the imperial study to discuss business matters with Emperor Wu of Zhou.

After talking about the business, He Xiang mentioned that Zheng Qian recognized Zhao Yao as the lord and wanted to enter the palace to be Zhao Yao's companion.

After hearing this, Emperor Wu of Zhou laughed and said, "Old Zheng's youngest son is quite discerning."

"I can see that Brother Qian is serious."

"Let him study hard at Taixue for a few years first, and when the time is right, I will arrange him well." Emperor Wu of Zhou always kept in mind the words of the old fairy Bai Heguan.In the past few days, he was thinking about where it would be better for Xiao Shi to go after he became an adult.

The old fairy said the farther the better.Emperor Wu of Zhou knew that a place was very far away from the capital, and it was also very far away from other places.If Zhao Yao went to that place, it would be in line with what the old god said, the farther the better, but Emperor Wu of Zhou was reluctant to let his youngest son be so far away from him.Besides, that place was too desolate, and he didn't want his youngest son to suffer there.

The second watch is here.

Zheng Qian: Having a famous father is really annoying.

Zheng Xilin: ...
