Wife Hua

Chapter 348
The emperor's question was like a thunderbolt exploding above his head.

He had fantasized about countless possibilities, but he didn't think that his outspoken words would make the emperor furious, and he even went after him personally.

"The emperor... I..."

He who has always been fickle in speech is clumsy at this time, not at all the demeanor of Shoufu in the past, "I'm just casually speaking, I also have expectations for the third son, and he will definitely do better than me in the future , what you do is more in line with the emperor's wishes than mine, and it is more beneficial to the empire than me."

"So you persuade him to seek his own life?!"

The emperor's tone was extremely gentle, as if chatting with a close courtier, if he ignored the guards all around the pavilion, the former chief assistant really thought that the emperor had a very good temperament.

"You value Sanlang, and you are afraid that when he is useless, I will chop him down with a knife. Just like the courtiers in the Ming Dynasty, Yu Qian, who died the most wronged and wronged, and Zhang Juzheng, who was dedicated to reform, were finally killed by his student emperor. Open the coffin and flog the corpse, you think they are a lesson for Saburo, and you think that Saburo will die sooner or later without a place to bury him."

"..."

"Do you know how many tricks I have used in order to make Saburo dispel his wariness?"

"I don't know."

"Yeah, you don't know, no one knows the value and status of Saburo in my heart!"

There was a hint of coldness on the emperor's lips, "I have learned a lesson, and I will never restrain myself for the responsibilities on my body again, and let the damned person hurt the...child I care about."

"I won't make the same mistake again and again. And no one can control me now, and I don't need to be bound by rules anymore."

"Your Majesty, I was wrong, I was wrong, it was my subject who questioned His Majesty, Third Young Master...he didn't believe what I said, and I didn't mean to remind Third Young Master to question His Majesty carefully."

"Saburo is sensitive and thoughtful. He will go back and think about a common sentence for a while. In the past two years, he has finally let go in front of me. I believe that I will treat him as a nephew and will not harm or use him."

The emperor waved his hand, "My years of hard work have been completely ruined by your one word. Do you know that if I wanted to use him, I would not try my best to carry out the new policy before the imperial examination. Although I am worried about the empire But I have been waiting for more than ten years, do you still care about waiting for another year or two?"

"...So Your Majesty... Since ancient times, even though the reform of the courtiers has made the empire prosperous, there is still no good result. If the reform is successful, the person who presides over the reform will die, and if the reform fails, the presider will be blamed."

He fully understands the emperor's painstaking efforts. All reforms and new policies are determined by His Majesty. The three sons who enter the court in the future are just followers and helpers of the emperor. Whether the reforms and new policies are successful or not, it has nothing to do with the three sons. For the performance of the third son, the emperor will bear everything himself, and will never use the third son as a scapegoat.

Once the reform and new policy is successful, the third son will definitely make the most of the contribution. This will give the third son enough capital to compete with the emperor and win over hundreds of officials.

But it just so happens that the third son is the son of the king of Wei, and he has the edict of the first emperor... The more he thinks about it, the more frightened he is, what is the emperor going to do.

Can the third son understand the emperor's painstaking efforts?
No, his clothes were completely drenched in cold sweat this time, seeing clearly the painstaking efforts of the emperor, I fear that there is no need for him to live, once he leaks the slightest bit, can the crown prince and the others spare the third son?

Even though the third son is stunningly talented and is protected by the emperor, he is not yet full-fledged at this time. If the prince and others join hands, it is difficult to guarantee that the third son can break through the net of heaven and earth and not be plotted by others. Even if the emperor wants to protect him at that time, I am afraid It is also difficult to save him.

The emperor can't be an enemy of the world for the sake of the third son.

He was smart all his life but was ruined by this sentence. He was cautious all his life, but he said the words that made the emperor hate him the most.

"My wife and children know everything. That day I met the third son alone. That sentence..." There was a bit of bitterness on his lips, "Since you can know, the prince and the others probably don't know it. Even if you harmed the third son, in fact, as long as your Majesty is sincere to the third son, I can see that the third son is also a person in the heart, and may not take what I say to heart."

The emperor shook his head and sighed, "You say that because you don't have Saburo. The experience of that child makes my heart ache, and I can't help but want to treat him better."

The person kneeling on the ground really wanted to cover his ears at this moment, and he didn't want to listen to the emperor's heartfelt words. After all, the more he listened, the less likely he was to survive.

However, the emperor is actually a chatterbox, and he finally found someone to talk to based on the words in his heart, and he started talking non-stop.

"Sanlang's rather lacking temperament, I am afraid that he will be alone for a lifetime, and now that he has his own heart, I am also afraid that he will die in love, Mu Hua's temperament... These two children will have to wear it down."

The emperor rambled on for a long while, and the murderous anger on his body faded a lot. He lowered his head and looked at the old former chief assistant, "The bone-piercing pain tortures me day and night, and I can't let you go. As for your relatives... I would rather be a fool than to experience that kind of pain again."

He is the emperor, the well-deserved lord of the empire, the ruler of all peoples, and has the qualifications to be willful.

"I beg Your Majesty to spare my family..."

His pleading did not recall the emperor's promise, the emperor had already walked away from the gazebo, the footsteps became softer and softer until they disappeared, but the guards surrounding the carriage and the gazebo did not disappear with the emperor.

Why did he say that to the third son?

No, in fact, there are some reasons for guessing the truth. The emperor definitely didn't want to kill his family just because of his words.

This is probably the fundamental reason why the emperor left the queen mother with dignity in the conflict between the emperor and the empress.

*******
A chessboard, two people playing chess.

Mu Hua pinched the white chess piece to put it in a good place, and raised her eyes to look at Liu Sanlang on the opposite side, his thick eyelashes blinked lightly, did she let her put it?Or should I advise her to think again?

Really, the next one will be so tiring!

Mu Hua directly slapped the white chess piece at the place he had planned, bang, the chess piece was shaken out of a gap, and Liu Sanlang gently threw the black chess piece into the chess box, "I lost."

"what."

She actually won?Although Liu Sanlang gave her three sons at the beginning, but if he wins, he wins, even if he wins, he is muddleheaded.

Mu Hua burst into a smile, "But the girls who are going to be admitted to the women's school will not let me go like you."

The book boy raised his eyebrows beside him, it's really not easy, the princess can still see that his son let her go.

"Third Young Master." A person ran in from outside, saw Princess Anle sitting opposite Liu Sanlang, stepped forward, hesitant to speak.

"She's not an outsider!" Liu Sanlang's voice was formal, "What's the news outside?"

"Master Shoufu, who has become an official... his family is missing, and his life and death are unknown. Now the government and the public are shaking, and his two sons who are far away are already on their way back to Beijing to complain."
