The ministers begged me to ascend the throne

Chapter 50

After the prince came out of the imperial study, he did not go back to the East Palace, but went to Wende Hall.In the Hall of Wende, Zhao Yao and the others are in class.

Seeing that the crown prince is coming, Mr. hurriedly bowed to the crown prince: "I see your highness the crown prince."

The prince stepped forward, helped the gentleman up, and said in a gentle tone: "Sir, please get up."

Mr.: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness."

The prince said apologetically, "Sir, I'm sorry to bother you." Mr. Xiao was also the enlightenment teacher of His Royal Highness, and His Royal Highness has always respected him. "I'm here to tell the younger brothers, after lunch, follow me outside the capital to welcome the acting king back to the capital."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the cheers of the Ninth Prince: "That's great..." Before he finished his words, Mr. Xiao gave him a cold look, his heart tightened, and he closed his eyes embarrassingly. Mouth.

Mr. Xiao frowned slightly and said, "Is His Highness the Crown Prince going out of the city to meet His Highness Dai Wang?"

The prince said: "I will take the emperor's younger brothers and ministers out of the city to meet the acting king."

When Mr. Xiao heard this, his frown deepened, and a look of disapproval appeared on his serious face.

"His Royal Highness, as the crown prince, how can you go out of the city to meet His Royal Highness in person? This is unreasonable."

When the Ninth Prince heard what Mr. Xiao said, he immediately became unhappy.He wanted to say something, but because he was afraid of Mr. Xiao, he didn't dare to speak.The Ninth Prince has always been arrogant and domineering, and he can do whatever he wants. There are not many people in the palace who are afraid of him, but Mr. Xiao is one of the people he is afraid of.He used to be not afraid of Mr. Xiao, and used his status as a prince to talk back to Mr. Xiao, and even ignored Mr. Xiao, but was severely beaten by Emperor Wu of Zhou.That board made his butt bloom, and he had to lie on the bed for a whole month to recuperate.From then on, he never dared to contradict Mr. Xiao, let alone be rude in front of Mr. Xiao.

"Sir, I am not welcoming the Dai Wang back to the capital as the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but as the eldest brother." The prince's tone was full of respect for Mr. Xiao, "Thanks to the great victory in Liangzhou this time, I lost my second brother. In terms of emotion and reason, I should welcome my second brother back."

Although Mr. Xiao is old-fashioned, it doesn't mean that he doesn't care about the affairs of the court. On the contrary, he sees it very clearly.After hearing what the prince said, he understood what the prince meant.

"Your Highness said yes."

He added, "Since His Highness the Crown Prince is going to take all His Highnesses to meet His Highness Dai Wang, today's class will end here, and Your Highnesses can leave now."

This is good news for Zhao Yao, and he has a look of joy on his face.

The third prince took the lead and got up to salute and bid farewell to Mr. Xiao: "Sir, the student is leaving."

The crown prince looked at the third prince and said, "Third brother, go back and prepare well, and leave the city with me after lunch."

The third prince respectfully said: "Yes." After speaking, he left.

The fourth and fifth princes bid farewell to the prince one by one. When it was Zhao Yao's turn, he asked, "Brother prince, should we go out of the city to meet the second brother in a carriage, or by ourselves?"

Hearing Zhao Yao's question, the prince smiled slightly: "Tenth brother, do you want to go by carriage or by horse?"

Zhao Yao hurriedly said: "Go on a horse." Sitting in the carriage can't see anything, and it's meaningless at all.

The prince reached out and poked the dimple on the left corner of Zhao Yao's mouth, and said softly, "Then go ride."

A happy smile appeared on Zhao Yao's face immediately, and he asked again: "Brother Prince, is there a dinner party tonight?"

Seeing Zhao Yao's clear eyes staring at him with sparkle, the prince's heart softened, and he stretched out his hand to gently pinch his chubby face.

"There is no dinner party tonight."

"Ah?" The smile on Zhao Yao's little face froze, his shining eyes dimmed, and he asked in disbelief, "Second brother is back, won't the father hold a celebration banquet for him?" He said, touching Rubbing his belly, he pouted slightly and said, "In order to eat a lot of delicious food at the dinner party, I have been eating very little since yesterday." His beef...

The prince was amused by Zhao Yao's words, and he laughed softly: "There is no dinner tonight, but there will be tomorrow night."

Zhao Yao's eyes, which had just become gloomy, suddenly became brighter.An expectant smile appeared on his small face again: "Then I will continue to eat less today, so that I can eat more delicious food tomorrow night."

The prince was so cute by Zhao Yao's appearance, he couldn't hold back and poked his cute dimples: "I just like banquets so much."

Zhao Yao nodded again and again, his eyes curled into crescents with a smile: "Because there are delicious food."

The eighth prince beside him made fun of Zhao Yao and said, "You are just delicious."

"People don't die for their mouths."

It was the first time the prince heard this kind of words, and he couldn't laugh or cry and said, "Who taught you this?"

Zhao Yao straightened his small chest and said proudly, "I created it myself, isn't it very reasonable?"

The prince said in a funny and helpless way: "The ghost is clever." Then he rubbed Zhao Yao's little head, "Let's go back and have lunch."

Zhao Yao clasped his hands and said, "Brother Prince, myna, I'll go first, see you after lunch." After finishing speaking, he left Wende Hall bouncingly.

The prince bowed to Mr. Xiao, and took the eighth prince back to the East Palace.

"People don't die because of their mouths. It's really lucky that the tenth brother can figure it out."

The eighth prince said: "In my tenth brother's heart, nothing is as important as delicious food. He often said that when he grows up, he will travel all over the world and eat all the delicious food in the world."

The prince smiled and said: "The tenth brother is really innocent and cute." In this palace, not to mention the prince, even the eunuchs and maids are very considerate.Only the tenth brother doesn't have any eyes, and what he thinks about every day is to eat delicious food.This simplicity is very rare, but also very dangerous.

"Brother, did something happen early?" The eighth prince was always sensitive, and he sensed that the prince was not in a good mood.

"Father gave Kong Taichang's youngest daughter a marriage as a side concubine." In front of the eighth prince, the prince did not hide his emotions.His tone was full of resentment and jealousy.

When the eighth prince heard the words, his face was full of disbelief: "Father actually gave Kong Taichang's youngest daughter a marriage to the acting king. Father wanted to..." He didn't say anything after that. "Where does the father send eldest brother?" This marriage decree was never expected by the Eighth Prince.

He was shocked. Is it true that the father is going to abolish the elder brother and replace the king as the crown prince? !

The corner of the prince's mouth raised a wry smile: "I'm not as good as the king after all." Although the prince's mood calmed down a lot under the comfort of Duke Zhen and Taifu, he still felt uncomfortable.In the early morning, when he heard Emperor Wu of Zhou's decree for bestowing marriage, the prince only felt that the sky was about to fall.

"Brother, we must never allow Dai Wang to marry Kong Taichang's youngest daughter!"

The prince's eyes became deep and cold, and he said in a sinister tone: "This is natural."

"Brother, do you have a way to stop this marriage?"

The prince then told the Eighth Prince what he had discussed with Lord Zhen Guo.After the Eighth Prince heard this, he expressed admiration: "Ginger is still old and spicy!"

"Fortunately, I still have my uncle." In the past few years, if his uncle hadn't helped him deal with it, he would have been deposed as a crown prince long ago.

"Brother, with Lord Zhen Guo here, you will be fine." The father did not agree to add a plant to the Dai Wang for a long time. It turned out that he wanted the Dai Wang to marry Kong Taichang's youngest daughter. The father really took great pains to pave the way for the Dai Wang. . "Brother, do you still remember what I said to you before. Now that the acting king is back, I think you can use it."

The prince naturally remembered.He hesitated, "Will this be too obvious?"

"Brother, next month is the anniversary of the death of the former empress, so it is the best time for you to use that method."

Thinking of the immortal mother, a look of sadness appeared in the eyes of the prince, and a look of grievance unconsciously appeared on his face.

"When my mother was alive, my father was still very good to me."

"If the first empress is still here, I will never allow my elder brother to suffer such a big grievance." The eighth prince has never met the first empress, and the first empress died of illness before he was born.However, he had heard a lot about the first queen.When the first queen was alive, her father respected her very much.At that time, the first empress died of illness, and Emperor Wu of Zhou was in grief, so he stopped court for three days.
