Rebirth: Hug Chu Guogong's Thigh Tightly

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and droughts have begun to occur in various places.

The series of measures proposed by Chu Yuan in the previous memorial gave the people everywhere water to drink, food to eat, and water to irrigate the crops in the fields.

It could have been foreseen that a drought was resolved by Chu Yuan's four or two efforts.The emperor was overjoyed when he heard that, and praised Duke Chu as the pillar of the country, and he can be regarded as a model for all officials.

Not only that, but also rewarded ten thousand taels of gold to show his appreciation to Chu Guogong.

When people from all over the world heard about Chu Guogong's deeds, they also spontaneously wanted to start building a shrine for Chu Yuan.

Chu Yuan heard about this, but asked his subordinates to stop it, and strictly prohibited the people from building a shrine for him.He also specially distributed the golden ten thousand taels bestowed to him by the emperor to the people affected by the disaster, and he was even more loved by the people for a while.

When the prince heard about this, he asked inexplicably: "Uncle, it is a good thing that the people are willing to build a shrine. Why did uncle stop it?"

The higher the prestige of his uncle Chu Guogong among the people, it is only good for him as a prince, and there is no harm.After all, everyone knows that he was trained by his uncle.

Chu Yuan raised his eyes and glanced at the prince in front of him, and analyzed lightly:
"One thing is that I am already the Duke of Chu, so I don't need more praise, I'm just afraid that the master will be overwhelmed. Doing these things is to eat the king's salary, to share the worries for the king, and to do the job."

"Secondly, if people start to build ancestral halls in various places, and say they are spontaneous at first, I'm afraid that some people will search for the people's fat and anointment, force the people to build ancestral halls, and fill their own pockets. In the end, it will be the common people who will suffer."

Speaking of this, he paused again: "Besides, what merits do I have that allow the people to build a shrine for me."

After the prince heard this, he admired his uncle even more, and he was so enthralled.He thought that his uncle was not only talented, but also humble, not taking credit for himself.

Only Chu Yuan knew that he was able to do such a thing in advance because he listened to Xia Keyu's words.

In his opinion, if credit is to be attributed, Xia Keyu deserves more credit than him.

The next day, the emperor also heard about Chu Yuan preventing the people from building the Shengsheng Temple. When he summoned the prince, he brought it up unintentionally and asked the prince's opinion.

The prince honestly told the emperor what his uncle had said to him.

The emperor was impressed by the prince's outspokenness and thoughtfulness for a while, and made an exception and left the prince to eat together.

Now that the queen is in charge of the harem again, with her own queen mother in charge, the life of the prince is getting easier.

When the prince was sent away, it happened that the third prince came to pay his respects.With a thought in his mind, the emperor couldn't help throwing the previous question to the third prince.

The third prince did not expect the emperor to be so straightforward. Although he has always disliked Duke Chu the most, he can only flatter him now:

"Mr. Chu's high righteousness is indeed as the father said, and he can be a model for all officials."

The emperor has always liked the third prince who is sweet-mouthed and eloquent, not as dull and cowardly as the prince.Now after hearing what the third prince said, she didn't say anything on the surface, but she couldn't hide her disappointment in her heart.

He had always had high hopes for the third prince, but he did not expect that his views on this matter were not as thorough as the prince's analysis.

The emperor was already suspicious, and the previous witchcraft incident had made the emperor feel more or less suspicious of this son.

After the third prince left, the emperor looked at the back of the third prince and couldn't help but sigh with emotion to the eunuch Gao Rang beside him:

"Chi'er is young after all, so he is not as stable as the crown prince cultivated by Chu Guogong."

Gao Rang on the side just held his breath and didn't dare to say much, trying to reduce his sense of existence.

It was night, the residence of the third prince was brightly lit.

"Royal father really commented that way?" The third prince raised up and said with an angry face.

Gao Rang, who was already dressed in ordinary clothes, nodded and said: "It is absolutely true, His Majesty did say so."

When the third prince heard this, his eyes were filled with gloom.He has always been well-behaved and sensible in front of his father, and he also has extraordinary views on government affairs, which is why he can win his father's favor.

His father's evaluation of him has always been much better than that incompetent elder brother.

Unexpectedly, his dull older brother, the crown prince, quietly began to win the favor of his father.

"That puppet incident, we should be more vigilant." The third prince paced back and forth, worried.

The puppet was replaced once, the queen returned to the palace once, and the prince first brought ice cubes to the emperor again.This made the third prince, who was rushing to do everything first, a little annoyed, and also felt a sense of crisis.

Thinking of this, he stopped, looked coldly at the dark night sky, and said coldly:

"Instead of sitting still, it's better to take the initiative."

The eunuch Gao Rang at the side heard the sound, frowned and said: "But the prince and the queen have always lived in the palace, and they are not easy to act rashly. That Chu Guogong is also on all kinds of vigilance now, I am afraid that our people will not be able to make a move."

The corner of the third prince's mouth twitched into a sneer, and said: "If I can't deal with them, I can't deal with others."

The chief eunuch Gao Rang asked in confusion: "What does the master mean?"

Hearing the sound, the third prince was about to speak with confidence.

Suddenly, there was a slight knock on the door outside, which was especially prominent in the silent night.

"Who?"

The third prince and the chief eunuch Gao Rang both looked vigilant.After all, the prince colluded with the eunuch next to the emperor, and it would be troublesome if someone found out.

"Your Highness, I'm here, Tian Xiao'an~" Outside the house, a man's pretendingly gentle voice sounded.

Hearing the words, the third prince breathed a sigh of relief, and asked calmly, "What's wrong?"

Tian Xiao'an heard the sound, paused, and said: "Your Highness, I want to go home tomorrow to prepare for my marriage. I came here to ask the Third Prince for leave, and I hope His Highness will approve."

Hearing the sound, the third prince said in a non-friendly tone: "Yes, you can go back."

Tian Xiao'an also heard the displeasure in the third prince's tone, he was a little confused.

Since he came to work in the third prince's residence, the third prince has treated him with great courtesy.Not only is the treatment very good, but also the attitude is mild on weekdays.

The third prince gave people the impression that he was a refined and modest gentleman, and he was rarely so rude.

However, Tian Xiaoan still respectfully said: "Thank you for your understanding, Your Highness, rest early, and I will leave~"

After Tian Xiaoan left, the third prince continued: "The person this person wants to marry is the concubine sister of Duke Chu's fiancée."

This is also one of the reasons why he chose to recruit Tian Xiaoan.

Hearing the sound, Gao Rang rolled his eyes, cupped his hands flatteringly and said, "Your Highness is still wise~"

Only then did the third prince say sadly:

"Since I can't touch anyone else, I will start with Chu Guogong's fiancée. I heard that the woman surnamed Xia has several restaurants in Beijing, and they are very busy recently. Why don't you ask His Highness to do her a little favor and let her restaurant reopen?" Get on the fire."

Thank you very much for your support and rewards~
