The king does not go to court early: the queen is too enchanting

Chapter 1173

Shao Shining still did not give up, and followed Shao Shiping to the courtyard.

"Brother Huang, you have come here for so many days in the past, how come you have become like this at this critical moment?" Shao Shining stood in front of Shao Shiping, not allowing him to dodge any more.

"Shi Ning, no matter in terms of talent, virtue or means, you and I can't compare with Shi'an. If he becomes the prince, it may not be all bad things!" Shao Shiping was also surprised that he could say such a thing.

"Brother Huang, you are really crazy!" Shao Shining opened his eyes wide, looking at Shao Shiping in disbelief.

"If I still have the possibility to be the prince, it must be because of my father's pity. My father doesn't like us to fight. If I annoy him now, that's the way out!" Shao Shiping argued, but How could he believe what he said?The truth in this world is that people flatten and round things to use according to their own convenience.

"Brother Huang!" Shao Shining was taken aback.

Shao Shining sat quietly with his eyes down, thinking carefully about his second brother's words, and seemed to understand some truth.Things in this world are unpredictable, no matter how anxious he is, many things will not have results just by doing them, for example, giving smoke.

Above the court hall, the old emperor sat upright.

"I heard that rumors have been raging in this city recently, and it's about the prince!" The old emperor's voice echoed in the hall, and none of the ministers and princes dared to raise their heads in this majesty.
"Prince, tell me, what's going on?" The old emperor looked at Shao Shiping.

"A few days ago, my son had his feet grounded, thinking about his past behavior, self-cultivation and self-examination, and found it very beneficial. He has never gone out recently, and he has never heard of this matter." Shao Shiping replied respectfully.

"Where is the second prince?" the emperor continued to ask.

"Father, there are still many follow-up matters to be completed in the matter of the hunger relief in the West. My son is busy with chores and has never heard of this matter!" Shao Shi'an answered cautiously.

"What about the third son, the third prince?" the emperor still asked downwards.

"Return to father, my son, my son has heard some rumors..." Shao Shining looked at the emperor carefully.

"Oh? What rumors, you tell me!" The emperor was very interested.

"Rumor... It is rumored that you want to make your second brother the crown prince!" Shao Shining didn't dare to look up.

"Then what do you think?" asked the emperor.

"I believe that the crown prince has been handed down to the eldest son since ancient times, so there is no need to have any doubts. The rumors are just a few good people who have ulterior motives!" Shao Shining replied.

"You understand! What do you think of it?" the emperor asked.

The hall suddenly became noisy.

"The old minister thinks that the ancestral precepts are important, but the crown prince is the heir of the royal family. In the future of my dynasty, virtue and ability are equally important, and even in a hurry, virtue and ability are even more important!" An old minister stepped forward tremblingly and replied, a group of Minister, agreed and said yes.

The emperor changed his face.

Shao Shi'an felt that he had always thought that his opponent was Shao Shiping, but judging from today's situation, at this moment, his opponent was obviously the emperor who was aloof.

Shao Shi'an suddenly thought of Shi Yiyan, and remembered her saying, "You went to the west to save the hungry and save the famine. Is it for the emperor's smile? Is it for the emperor's reward?"

The answer is beyond doubt, no!He, Shao Shian, did not care about hard work to save the hunger for the sake of the people, and he, Shao Shian, did everything he could to seek the crown prince for the sake of the people.

But there are so many people who want to stand in front of him.At this moment, the high-ranking emperor insisted on standing in front of him, why did he insist on standing in front of him?For the woman he loves?But why didn't his mother worry about him all his life in vain?Is it for his beloved son?But why didn't I keep calling him dad for 20 years!
Shao Shi'an raised his head, and the emperor was still glaring at the ministers.

Suddenly, a surge of anger arose in his heart. He was afraid that the anger would burn out through his eyes, so he buried his head deeply.

"The matter of the crown prince really bothered you, I shouldn't have delayed such a simple matter for so long!" The emperor's voice was cold and hard.

"Your Majesty!" All the ministers knelt on the ground.

"Officer of Rituals, come out. My ancestors have already thought about it for you, so you don't need to worry about it anymore." The emperor glanced at the ministers, but his eyes fell on his son.

Shao Shi'an stood still with his head bowed, a man who was obviously stalwart, but at the moment he was somewhat powerless.In front of the emperor, who dares to have a strong posture?The old emperor felt guilty, but there was only one prince, and he had promised the person he loved the most.

"Decree to make the eldest son Shao Shiping the crown prince, and the grand ceremony will be held today!" The emperor's instructions were nothing more than a common thing.The decisive tone seemed to finally get rid of a difficult matter.

Shao Shi'an smiled wryly, he had obviously thought about countless plans that he would not be able to be the crown prince, and would implement next.It is obvious that you have made enough preparations, but why?Why was there a void in his heart when the emperor personally said that the name of the prince to be established was not his?

The emperor clearly knew what efforts he had made, but still gave up on him, no!Not only did he give up, but next, he might join forces with the prince to suppress him.

Shao Shi'an still couldn't understand, what exactly did he lose to?
