Wife Hua

Chapter 571 Chasing the Empress
In the early morning of the next day, Mu Yun saw Wei Yan, who was a prisoner yesterday, accepting the emperor's conferment majestically.

It is rare for the emperor to be tough again, telling the contribution of his master Wei Yan, and finally named him Cheng Engong, in charge of Tiangongfang, and counselor of military affairs.

The whole court was in an uproar, and even the loyal courtiers could not figure out the reason why the emperor rewarded Guru Wei Yan. Two days ago, the emperor had an extra old Mr. Changqing in Buyi Pavilion, and today the empire has more people who can ask about anything. Cheng Engong?
What kind of trouble is the emperor going to do?

King Taiping's face sank like water, showing dissatisfaction faintly.

When he looked up and saw the pleading look in the emperor's gentle eyes, he retracted his steps, lowered his eyelids, and remained silent.

"Brother Emperor, I'm not against you rewarding him." King Wei shook his head, seemingly in a good mood, "I just heard about Brother Emperor's subordinate guru's credit. As you said, my brother did not see it."

The eyes of the courtiers brightened, the prince and others secretly encouraged the king of Wei, and only the king of Wei had the possibility to stroke the emperor's dragon beard.

Two days ago, King Wei's second son was imprisoned in the clan's mansion for introspection and questioning. Anyone could see that King Wei was going to be his son.

It's just that no one thought that knowing that the third son Ying Che had offended the emperor, Wei Wang still had the heart to leave the position of the eldest son to the youngest son!

Wei Wangdao: "Actually, just relying on my master's advice and suggestions for the emperor's brother, the drafting of the new policy is worthy of your honor. What's more, the guns, glass and other rare treasures in the Tiangong workshop are beneficial to the country and convenient to the people. Relying on glass has already increased a lot of income for the national treasury, and the people have also benefited."

The courtiers didn't understand the purpose of King Wei. Didn't King Wei object to the master?

"Brother, the empress position is vacant. You have made the Master Duke, and the younger brother does not object, but Cheng Engong is..." King Wei blinked innocently, "What do you mean? You value the daughter of the master's family ?”

A look of joy flashed in the eyes of the emperor sitting on the dragon chair, "It is my younger brother after all, and I know what I mean. More than ten years ago, I met Ah Yan and his sister Wei Mo by chance. I fell in love with the Wei family. I thought about accepting her as a concubine, bringing her into the harem, so that the Wei family would not admire wealth and honor, and would politely reject me."

What a bloody love story!
The purpose of the emperor's private visits was to hook up with beauties?

The corner of King Wei's mouth twitched twice, biting the bullet and listening to the emperor's recollection of a past love story.

The beauty declined, and the emperor felt that his face was damaged, but he was reluctant to hurt the beauty, so the emperor often went out of the palace and insisted on conquering the beauty with his own personality charm. , regarded Wei Yan who bewitched the emperor as an evildoer, and wanted to deal with him quickly.

The emperor broke his heart for this pair of siblings and saved Wei Yan's life, but he watched the beauty disappear. After more than ten years of tossing and turning, he still couldn't let go of the beauty he was fascinated by. Now that the queen is deposed, the emperor sees his master again. The affection for the beauty made him think of chasing her title.

Here the ministers can imagine countless sadomasochism plots.

King Taiping has closed his eyes, not to look at the sad and painful emperor who recalled the past.

"I have decided to posthumously designate the Wei family as empress."

"Your Majesty, no!"

The ministers all objected, and stood up and begged the emperor to take back the order. It doesn't matter if you chase after the empress, but the emperor can't play like this, even if the Wei family is the emperor's love. The emperor is about to make her queen, and the ministers are hard to believe.

The Son of Heaven said lightly: "Do you want to teach me who to make queen? Do you want to teach me how to be an emperor?"

"I dare not wait."

"I see that you have all forgotten your duty, and took my tolerance for you as my weakness to be bullied. I dare not be wiser than Taizu, but if you want to make the woman you love queen, it's not your turn to intervene. People say I'm ridiculous, and I admit it!"

The emperor glanced at his courtiers, and said in a low voice: "You have stopped me, the historian will record your uprightness, I have already failed the Wei family, don't let me be a villain who doesn't keep his promise."

"There is no need to discuss the matter of chasing the Wei family as empress. The Ministry of Rites directly issued an order to announce it to the world. The ceremony... Keep it simple. She is not a woman who cares about prosperity and wealth. Everything is what I am willing to give her, and I will give it to her." owed her."

The emperor got up and walked out of the Qianqing Palace. Father-in-law Wuyong yelled to withdraw from the court, retreat from the court.

Ministers, you are willing to look at me, I will look at you, and at the same time shake your head helplessly. When you meet the emperor playing a rogue, and if you don’t listen to any suggestions, you are a rogue. As a courtier, there is nothing you can do.

If it is a matter of the safety of the empire, the ministers should argue with reason. Although the emperor has no family affairs, it is only the emperor's private matter to pursue the empress, let alone a dead man.

Apart from the guru Wei Yan, there was no one in the Wei family, the only thing in the court was the title of Lord Cheng En, so that Wei Yan could receive an extra salary.

King Wei caught up with Prince Taiping, "Uncle Emperor."

King Taiping turned his head and asked, "What's the matter?" His eyes swept over Wei Yan and the old Mr. Changqing in Baiyi Pavilion who were led by the little eunuch to see the emperor, and he shook his head indistinctly.

"Did you say that Brother Huang is ill? Why did you suddenly..." Wei Wang covered his mouth, "I was wrong, Brother Huang is fine, he just suddenly remembered his former lover, so the matter of posthumous seal is settled like this gone?"

Taiping County King said: "The emperor has had a difficult time these years. As long as it is an absurd order, we will obey him, so as to resolve the depression that the emperor has accumulated for many years. It will be of great benefit to the emperor Long Tiyi."

As if he was afraid that King Wei would continue to ask, King Taiping County said: "By the way, what's the matter with your second son? He was sent to the Daozong's mansion. A few days ago, I heard that Princess Wei intended to put him in his name. Excuse me, is it your family... You have to remember that the imperial examination is only a few days away, and everyone is waiting to see Ying Che fail. During the court, the crown prince mentioned to me that Lady Liu was still your wife when she gave birth to Yingqing and Yingzi, and their two brothers, especially your eldest son, should be the legitimate sons."

"Is there such a thing?" Wei Wang no longer cared about the abnormality and bad premonition of the emperor's brother, and said angrily: "Even if he is a legitimate son? I..."

"If he is the first son and the eldest son, the position of Prince Wei's son will be cleared."

Prince Taiping said slowly: "Although you are the king of Wei, you can't violate the etiquette of your ancestors. When the former emperor appointed the prince, he also followed the son of the empress. If you continue to toss, you will not hurt Yingche, but destroy him. There are fewer backstabs around him? It's not that he and Mu Hua are cautious, you probably don't have this son long ago."

King Wei pursed his lips and said forcefully, "I just want Sanlang to be the heir..."

"The emperor's nephew is not the son of heaven." Prince Taiping said erratically, "The emperor has the capital to be willful, but the vassal king doesn't have it. Ying Che has his own future, and it may not be a bad thing not to be the son of Wei Wang."
