Zhe Furong: After widowhood and rebirth, she was pampered by treacherous ministers

"Lu Shilang is right. Princess Pingyang is still a woman at a young age. With all her blood to defend her family and country, she is more worthy of our admiration. It is true that the soldiers and the common people should not be chilled."

The emperor nodded, fully agreeing with Lu Shilang's point of view.

Seeing that he was defeated, Cai Ping gritted his teeth with hatred.Lu Shilang was overjoyed, raised his head and looked at Gu Mo quietly, and nodded.

"Princess Pingyang made such a great contribution this time, and I'm thinking of giving him the title of 'General Pingyang'. What do you guys think?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, I feel very good about it." Gu Mo said.

He didn't hear any objections from other people in the court, so the emperor decided on this matter.

"Your Majesty, I believe that the Fifth Prince has also made contributions to this battle. Since Princess Pingyang has been rewarded with a title, what kind of reward should the Fifth Prince receive?" Gu Mo continued to probe.

"Your question is on point. I just didn't think about what kind of reward I should give the Fifth Prince today."

The Emperor said, sighing.

"The fifth prince has already opened his house to go to court, but rewarding a hundred taels of gold and silver is not realistic enough, and it is not enough to make a good impression. I wonder if you have any good suggestions?"

Hearing what the emperor said, Lu Shilang immediately understood.

"Report to Your Majesty, I have a proposal." Lu Shilang immediately acted according to circumstances.

"Say."

"Previously, there had been constant disputes in the imperial court over the crown prince's reserve position. The minister believed that His Highness the crown prince had done things that lost the royal face again and again, and his character was not good. Now he is afraid that he will not be worthy of the reserve position. , it is difficult to convince the public, and the common people now have some complaints against His Highness the Crown Prince."

Lu Shilang spoke bluntly, the emperor's face changed slightly for a moment, and other ministers also looked at each other in blank dismay.

However, Lu Shilang was not afraid, and continued to add: "The minister said this, not because he is not afraid of the power of the crown prince, but because the old minister believes that His Majesty manages every day, and handles the country. So much painstaking effort needs to be carefully maintained."

The Emperor cleared his throat sullenly.

"What I'm asking is what kind of reward is given to the fifth prince, what does Shi Lang Lu mean by mentioning the prince?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the old minister believes that the candidate for the reserve position can be reconsidered, and the most suitable candidate for consideration is the Fifth Prince."

The ministers in the audience started discussing one after another, and couldn't believe what they heard in Lu Shilang's mouth.

When the prince heard this, he was furious.But after all these days, he has indeed done a lot of absurd things, so he doesn't know what to refute, afraid of causing his father's resentment.

He could only turn his head slightly, his eyes found Cai Ping, and he flirted with Cai Ping.

Cai Ping naturally understood what it meant, and secretly phrased the words in his heart, waiting for the opportunity to speak again.

"Your Majesty, the ministers also agree with what Lu Shilang said. It is time for Your Majesty to consider changing the reserve. Last time His Majesty refused to change, perhaps because he did not find another suitable candidate. Now the fifth prince has not only made meritorious service, but also bravely It is really eye-catching, and it is suitable for the reserve position." Yu Shangshu said all the way.

Gu Mo had seen this person before, but he didn't have a deep impression. He only remembered that he was under the fifth prince's command.It's all because the fifth prince is too low-key in raising people, so that he rarely sees it when he goes to the court.

"Your Majesty, His Majesty the Crown Prince has made His Majesty very angry several times in a row, I hope His Majesty will consider it carefully." Lu Shilang struck while the iron was hot.

"I implore Your Majesty to consider it carefully!" Everyone said in unison.

The voice was very loud in the court, the emperor looked at the people under the steps, and sighed secretly in his heart, unexpectedly there were quite a few people supporting the fifth prince.

Seeing the emperor's extremely thoughtful appearance, the prince's heart became even more flustered.

He turned his head to look for Cai Ping again, and Cai Ping lowered his head to show that he understood.

"Your Majesty, the crown prince has been in place for a long time. If it is suddenly replaced, wouldn't it be a loss of royal face? Abandoning the current reserve will cause the common people to think that the current royal family's vision is not good. Please think twice, Your Majesty." Cai Ping finally said.

"Yes, Your Majesty. His Majesty the Crown Prince has kept himself safe these past few days. He has not indulged himself as before, and has begun to strictly control himself. Last time, His Majesty said that he would give His Majesty the Crown Prince a chance to reform. Could it be that this time because of five The prince has no reward, so if you want to reserve such an important position, can you just change it?"

"Your Majesty, please think twice!" The crown prince's courtiers all knelt down and begged for the prince's mercy.

"Your Majesty, the fifth brother did indeed do a good job in the frontier campaign this time, but Ke Erchen..."

The crown prince was not idle just now, his eyes were filled with tears in the effort of a cup of tea, and he could use it at this time.

"I haven't said anything yet, why are you so nice, and your eyes are red? A man, what are you doing so pretentious?"

Seeing the prince's expression, the emperor scolded, but his heart still felt a little distressed.

Gu Mo didn't say a word, just stood by and watched the debate between the two parties.

In the end, there was still no result from the discussion. The two factions in the imperial court talked about each other, and the emperor's head almost grew dizzy.

But he began to waver in his mind about the replacement of the reserve position.

After coming down to court, Gu Mo had just walked out of the Golden Luan Hall two steps before he was secretly invited back by Eunuch Liao.

"His Royal Highness, I am bothering you. Your Majesty ordered the servants to come over. Please go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation."

"Thank you, Eunuch. My son hasn't had a good chat with His Majesty for a long time recently. Please, Eunuch Liao, lead the way."

"Please."

When he reached the entrance of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Gu Mo paused and asked Eunuch Liao to wait for a while.

He called Danqing who was behind him, and whispered some instructions in his ear.

Still afraid that Eunuch Liao would be suspicious and would say something in front of the emperor, Gu Mo quickly said loudly: "Go back quickly, and send Song Yan to pick me up later."

"Yes." Dan Qing cupped his hands, turned and left.

Only then did Gu Mo look at Eunuch Liao, and explained to Eunuch Liao: "He ate bad food today, and he was not feeling well when he went to court with me. I sent him back to see His Majesty."

Although it was an explanation, Gu Mo said it without emotion like a routine, so Eunuch Liao didn't think much about it.

"Yes, His Royal Highness is really considerate, please come inside."

Gu Mo smoothed his clothes for a while, took a big step, and stepped into the door of the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

The emperor was holding a memorial to review, when he heard the movement, he raised his eyes and saw Gu Mo, and his frowning eyebrows loosened.

"You came."

"See Your Majesty." Gu Mo bowed slightly.

"No courtesy, take your seat quickly."

Gu Mo walked aside and sat down.

"Your Majesty hasn't summoned Mo to enter the palace for a long time, what's going on today?" Gu Mo asked.

"Mo, you have always been smart, but you just don't bother to deal with worldly affairs. I don't believe you can't guess."
