The ministers begged me to ascend the throne

Chapter 51
On the way back to Kunde Hall, Tong Xi told Zhao Yao about the marriage bestowed by Emperor Wu of Zhou.After Zhao Yao heard this, his expression was incredulous: "Is it true?"

"The marriage was bestowed by the emperor himself." Tong Xi said, "How dare the slaves speak nonsense."

Zhao Yao said in astonishment: "That's Kong Taichang, it's not someone else!" Is it true that the father really wants to abolish the elder brother of the prince and replace him with the king as the prince?
"Now the whole palace is talking about this matter!" Tong Xi said, looking around vigilantly, and said in a low voice, "Everyone is saying that the emperor can't help but finally abolish His Highness the Crown Prince!"

"Your Highness, is the Emperor really going to abolish His Highness the Crown Prince?"

After Zhao Yao was surprised, his expression became calm: "Do you think the prince can be destroyed by the emperor if he wants to?"

"But, didn't the emperor marry Kong Taichang's youngest daughter to His Royal Highness the Daiwang?" Don't look at Tong Xi, who usually looks stupid, but he is actually very clever. "With the support of the Kong family, the Daiwang is like a tiger with wings, how can His Royal Highness compete with the Daiwang!" That is the Kong family, which is respected by scholars all over the world, and His Royal Highness is married to the Kong family, which means that he has the support of most of the scholars in the world.

"Even with the support of the Confucian family, my father can't immediately abolish the elder brother who is the eldest son of the prince, and make the second brother who is the son of the concubine the crown prince." Zhao Yao crossed his hands on the back of his head and walked lazily, "Li Di Li Li Long, but the rules set by the Kong family themselves. If Kong Taichang supports the second elder brother to become the prince, it is violating the ancestral precepts."

Tong Xi felt that what Zhao Yao said made sense, "So, Kong Taichang won't support Dai Wang?"

"Once his youngest daughter marries the second elder brother, it's not up to him whether he supports it or not." Zhao Yao said, "At this time, the one who hurts the most is not the prince brother, but Kong Taichang. I guess he is thinking about how to reject this marriage. .”

Tong Xi was surprised and said: "How can you refuse the marriage bestowed by the emperor? Isn't this a decree?"

Zhao Yao: "Just wait and see, this matter won't go so smoothly." This marriage may cause a bloodbath.Royal father knew the impact of this marriage, why did he still give it to him?
Is the father afraid that the world will not be chaotic?

The emperor's heart needle under the sea.

"It doesn't matter if it goes well or not, don't worry, Your Highness."

"What am I worried about?" Zhao Yao said with a smile, "I'm thinking about eating more delicious food at the celebration banquet tomorrow night."

"Your Highness, you really don't plan to eat more at noon?" Tong Xi said worriedly, "You will go out of the city with His Royal Highness to meet His Royal Highness in the afternoon, and you don't know when you will be able to return to the palace. By then you will be hungry." What should I do?"

"I'm not a fool, how could I go to meet him hungry." Zhao Yao's stomach became hungry as he said that, he hurriedly quickened his pace, "Hurry up and go back."

"Your Highness, slow down, and be careful not to fall." Tong Xi hurriedly chased after him.

After a while, they arrived at the Kunde Hall, and they squatted at the door to welcome Zhao Yao.

Zhao Yao hugged them first, and then kissed them again.

"Brother Ten, why did you come back so early?" It was not yet noon at this time, Zhao Yao used to finish school at noon.The fifth princess suddenly thought of something, pointed at Zhao Yao and exclaimed, "You won't sneak back, will you?"

Zhao Yao gave the fifth princess a supercilious look.He said angrily: "Fifth sister, when did I sneak back early?" He wanted to leave early, but unfortunately he didn't have the guts.

"Then you must be pretending to be sick or in pain, and came back early." The fifth princess said with certainty.

Zhao Yao pretended to be hurt and sad, "Fifth Sister, how can you think of me like that? I'm a good student." Although he doesn't like reading and is often distracted during class, he obediently goes to study every day.I have never been late and left early, and I have never been absent from class.

The fifth princess was deceived by Zhao Yao's acting skills, and hurriedly apologized: "Tenth brother, I was joking with you."

Zhao Yao snorted angrily, he was too lazy to talk to the fifth princess, and walked forward with money.

The fifth princess thought that Zhao Yao was really angry, so she hurriedly chased after him to make amends, and promised to make Zhao Yao his favorite snack.Only then did Zhao Yao forgive her, and he didn't get angry with her again.

Tong Xi, who had witnessed everything, silently sympathized with the fifth princess in his heart: His Highness just lied to the fifth princess in order to let the fifth princess willingly make snacks for him. Unexpectedly, the fifth princess didn't see it, and foolishly fell in love with His Highness. when.

The fifth princess thought that she was smarter than His Highness because she was her elder sister, but in fact, the fifth princess was always deceived by His Highness every time.

When Liang Zhaoyi and Yu Meiren saw that Zhao Yao came back three quarters earlier than usual, they were very surprised at first, and then worried that he was not feeling well.

Zhao Yao told Liang Zhaoyi and the others the reason for leaving school early today, "Concubine Mother, let's have lunch later. I'm going to find the prince's brother later, and go out with him to pick up the second brother."

Liang Zhaoyi nodded, and asked Gui Xing to tell the small kitchen to make them move faster.

Kunde Palace has its own small kitchen, and Zhao Yao and the others cook three meals a day in the small kitchen.It stands to reason that with Liang Zhaoyi's status, she cannot have her own small kitchen.Only concubines above concubines are eligible to have their own small kitchens.Due to the remote and remote location of the Kunde Hall, it is not very convenient to go to the imperial dining room to get food.The most important thing is that the food will be cold when you take it back.It doesn't matter if Liang Zhaoyi and Yu Meiren eat it, but it's easy to spoil your stomach if you eat it for Zhao Yao.When Zhao Yao was very young, he often ate badly.Emperor Wu of Zhou made an exception and let Liang Zhaoyi have his own small kitchen after learning why he had a bad stomach.

"It's really wonderful for Dai Wang to return to Beijing this time. Not only the crown prince took the ministers to welcome him, but the emperor also gave him such a wonderful marriage." Yu Meiren sighed, "It's really beautiful."

Pan Cairen said: "It must be very lively when Dai Wang comes back in the afternoon."

Liang Zhaoyi didn't answer Yu Meiren and the others' words, but told Zhao Yao repeatedly: "When you go outside the capital, you must honestly follow the eighth prince or the fourth prince. You can't go anywhere, let alone run around casually, you understand?"

"Don't worry, Concubine Mother, I will stick by the fourth brother and the eighth brother and not go anywhere." Zhao Yao said again, "I will do whatever the fourth brother and the eighth brother do. I will never talk too much." This time He went outside the capital to pick up his second brother back, not to go out to play, how could he get carried away and run around.

Hearing what Zhao Yao said, Liang Zhaoyi felt relieved and didn't say anything more.

After a while, Gui Xing came in and told her that the lunch was ready, and asked if it would be served now.

Liang Zhaoyi said: "Set the meal now."

Zhao Yao finished his lunch in a hurry, then changed into a brocade suit, and went to the East Palace.When he arrived, the third and fourth princes had already arrived.However, the Seventh Prince and Ninth Prince have not arrived yet.

After a while, the Seventh and Ninth Princes arrived.When the two met on the way, it was natural that there would be some verbal confrontation.Seeing the smug look on the ninth prince's face, one could tell that he just won the fight against the seventh prince.

Seeing that the younger brothers were all here, the prince took them out of the palace.

When I arrived at the gate of the palace, I found that there were many imperial guards guarding it.Several of them were also leading horses.

The crown prince got on the horse first, and then the third prince and the others got on the horse one after another.

The fourth and eighth princes let Zhao Yao be among them.If something happens, the two of them can protect him.

The prince took the lead and rode in front.Relying on being the younger brother of the acting king, the ninth prince followed the prince and rode in front of the third prince and the others.

Riding a horse to the main road in the capital, Zhao Yao was surprised to see many people crowding on both sides of the road.

"Why are there so many people?" Are these ordinary people here to welcome the acting king back to Beijing?

The eighth prince looked at the people on both sides of the road, and sneered in his heart: Xuan Pinghou is really good at making the people spontaneously greet Dai Wang triumphantly.

The fourth prince said blankly: "Don't worry about them."

When the people saw the prince, they knelt on the ground and saluted, shouting loudly, "His Royal Highness, a thousand years ago, a thousand years ago."

The prince had a kind and warm smile on his face as usual, and waved to the people on both sides of the road from time to time.

Although it was just waving, it made the people very excited.

On weekdays, the common people hardly see His Highness the Crown Prince and other princes, let alone face the Crown Prince at such a close distance like now.The people respect and worship the imperial power from the bottom of their hearts.

　Sorry, I went out this morning and came back to play.

　　Continue to humblely ask for monthly tickets!
