Chapter 419 Reminder
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.

This time, even the crown prince couldn't sit still, it was about his daughter, no matter whether he knew the inside story or not, he couldn't continue to sit on the sidelines and pretend to be a wallflower.However, with both parents present, he didn't dare to speak first, and his expression was unavoidably anxious, whether he should continue to sit or stand up, he was very entangled.

After the emperor and empress paused briefly, the husband and wife looked at each other and silently exchanged glances.

The queen coughed lightly, and said slowly: "Lizhi, what's the matter? What happened? You should tell the whole story first, and then, how to punish him is up to His Majesty to decide."

The emperor turned his head slightly, and winked at an elderly servant beside him.

The old eunuch understood, hurriedly came to the bed, bent down, and respectfully waited for orders.

The emperor whispered something to him.

The eunuch nodded again and again, and immediately retreated quietly.

After hearing what the queen said, the prince hurriedly echoed: "Yes, sister, if you have anything to say, you can say it first, maybe the matter is not so serious. Besides, Qiao Mu's character is also known, she is the most docile, gentle, well-behaved How could a person like this collide with peace?"

Princess Changle raised her head, and said with a solemn expression what happened at the polo field today.

She spoke objectively, without any emotional overtones. Among them, what Ping An said, what Xiao Nan said, and what the others laughed about, she said everything in detail.

In the end, the princess looked ashamed, and said: "Prince Ping'an is still in a coma, life and death are uncertain, I, I am really worried. After thinking about it, I think we should bring this evil obstacle and hand it over to the prince and princess—— "

Jiaojiao sat quietly in the corner, after listening to the princess's words, she suddenly raised her head, her lips pursed, but in the end she still didn't say anything.

From the corner of the queen's eyes, she caught a glimpse of her little movements, and asked, "Jiaojiao, what do you want to say?"

Jiaojiao hurriedly straightened up, and said with a little uneasiness: "This afternoon, Ah Weng took me to watch the game at Uncle Six's polo field, and I happened to see sister and cousin playing polo. But, but..."

The prince frowned, and lightly scolded: "But what? In front of the elders, tell the truth! Don't hide it! What does it look like to be hesitant and timid?!"

Jiaojiao was reprimanded by her father, so she flinched subconsciously, but dared not speak out.

Seeing his well-behaved little granddaughter being scolded for no reason, the emperor glared at the prince dissatisfied, and said angrily, "Jiaojiao is so good, why are you training her so well? If you really want to train your daughter, why don't you How about teaching Ping An more? As long as she is half as well-behaved as Jiaojiao, she won't get angry with Qiao Mu, and she won't be seriously injured."

When this topic was mentioned, the emperor suddenly remembered the scene he saw in the afternoon, and said in an even more unhappy tone: "What's more, in the afternoon, Zhen and Jiaojiao saw with their own eyes that Ping'an led a market girl idler to play polo. , bully you sisters.

Hmph, she is so majestic, Aya from Qinghe's family, Ajun from Ashina's family, Qiangqiang from your aunt's family, and Qiao Mu from Lizhi's family, these are not Ping'an's cousins, but her cousins, she thought They teased, they teased, and they whipped if they wanted to. Fortunately, Qiao Mu and the others were good at equestrian skills and luck, so they didn't get hurt.Otherwise, your family is not the only one who is lying on the sickbed right now..."

Every time the emperor said a name, the prince's forehead twitched.After the emperor's words were finished, the prince wished he could go back to the East Palace, wake up the restless daughter and strangle him to death!
Cheating, this is a typical cheating!

Recently, the emperor's holy body seems to have improved. Under the persuasion of his staff, the prince tried his best to suppress the inflated desire for power in his heart, strictly restraining the words and deeds of his family members and cronies, lest something not done well would cause the emperor's dissatisfaction.

Every day, the prince is extremely cautious, always reminding himself not to get carried away.

The subordinates were right in reminding that there are no two masters in a country, and no emperor likes someone to miss his throne, even if that person is his own son.As long as he doesn't sit in that seat for a day, he can't relax.

As a result, he worked hard in the front alone, while his daughter broke him down behind the scenes.

Idiot, what an idiot, she doesn't look at who she is bullying:

A Ya, there is the Cheng family behind him; Ah Ming, father and brother both hold military power; Qiang Qiang, Princess Pingyang's Women's Army has enjoyed a high reputation in the army, and the Chai family and his son have been operating in the Northwest for decades, and their strength cannot be underestimated; Qiao Mu, her mother-in-law's family are all well-known families, not to mention the Eldest Princess, but Xiao Concubine is a celebrity in the world, and is highly regarded by saints...

One by one, how much effort did the prince and princess spend to gather them into the East Palace?
Ping An just wanted to make himself happy, so he sabotaged the prince's plan at will. How could the prince not be angry?

The prince hurriedly got up, went to the couch and knelt down to apologize: "It's all about sons and daughters being unkind, Aye forgive me!"

Seeing her father kneeling down, Jiaojiao hurriedly knelt behind the prince and bowed silently.

The sage couldn't bear his little granddaughter to be troubled, so he waved his hands weakly, "Forget it, the matter has come to an end, it's useless to talk too much, you and the princess will teach your children strictly in the future."

The prince responded in a low voice, got up, and knelt down again.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit heavy, the queen said softly: "Okay, Li Zhi and Qiao Mu should get up too. I understand this matter, it's just a joke between sisters, and Ping An's horse was suddenly frightened, which made Ping An and Mrs. Huo The serious injury was just an accident. Qiao Mu, this has nothing to do with you, and you don't need to blame yourself."

Xiao Nan didn't get up, she still prostrated respectfully on the ground, she said timidly: "Although that's the case, but, but I'm a sister, I was supposed to love and take care of my younger sisters. Now instead of taking good care of them, It also caused Ping An to have an accident, I, I did make a mistake."

The queen was silent for a moment when she heard the words, and said, "Well, there is some truth in what you said."

She raised her eyes to look at the emperor, the husband and wife were connected, the emperor understood the meaning of sending a wife, and nodded slightly.

The queen continued: "Well, I'll punish you for copying the Heart Sutra a hundred times and contemplating at home for a month."

Xiao Nan hurriedly kowtowed and saluted, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty the Empress."

Princess Changle still insisted, "Aye, please take back Xiao's title of princess. After all, she is only the daughter of a princess. It is against the law to make an exception to be named princess."

Although the emperor was old and hadn't recovered from a serious illness, his powers of observation were very keen.

He glanced at his beloved daughter, then at Xiao Nan, and then asked abruptly: "Qiao Mu, tell the truth, but is someone making things difficult for you?"

After saying this, the emperor even intentionally or unintentionally gave the crown prince a note.

The prince's heart was pounding, and he thought to himself, what else did that unfilial girl say?To actually force Xiao Nan to take the initiative to resign from the title of princess? !
Xiao Nan kowtowed again, then raised his head, and replied seriously: "Reporting to Your Majesty, everyone has treated me very well, especially the crown prince and princess concubine, who have treated me very kindly."

The emperor and the empress understood, the meaning of Xiao Nan's words was very clear, except for the prince and his wife, there were indeed people in the East Palace who were dissatisfied with her imperial conferment.For example, that Ping An who is still in a coma!

Hearing this, the prince secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and looked at Xiao Nan with a little more kindness, well, Qiao Mu is indeed a good boy who understands the truth, and he and the princess have taken good care of her.

Princess Changle raised her head, and looked at her parents on the throne with eyes full of pleading, "Please, Aye, Auntie."

At this point, the emperor and the empress finally understood why the eldest daughter came here to plead guilty in such a mobilizing way. The husband and wife sighed in their hearts: Alas, this child Lizhi thinks too much and is too cautious.She persisted in this way because she was worried that no one would be able to protect them after the new king came to the throne in the future.

After a while, the emperor said slowly: "Back then, the Xiao family was named the Princess of Xiangcheng because she made contributions to the imperial court. I put the words here. If anyone can make contributions like the Xiao family in the future, regardless of her Whether it's a commoner or a lady, I will break the rules and designate her as the county lord or princess!"

After all, the emperor looked at the prince and explained word by word: "Prince, you also need to keep this in mind. Anyone who has made contributions to the country and the court, regardless of their origin, will be rewarded with great rewards!"

The crown prince stood up, bowed deeply, and said, "My son, please obey!"

Only then did Princess Changle soften her face, stood up with a smile, and went to the emperor's bed, chatting softly with her parents.

Afterwards, the queen took Princess Changle and others to the side hall for tea, and only the emperor, the prince and his son were left in the Lizheng hall to talk.

The emperor waved his hand and called the old eunuch, "Come on, what's going on?"

The eunuch hurriedly told the news carefully, including Ping'an's words to provoke Xiao Nan and Cheng Ya before the match, what Ping'an said to Chen Ba Niang, Xiao Nan's small talk, the old eunuch learned everything from the emperor and his son listen.

In the end, the old official talked about how Ping An was startled and injured, and how Xiao Nan and the others reacted.

Reconfirming that Ping An's injury was an 'accident', the prince showed embarrassment on his face.

After saying this, the sage waved his hand, and the old eunuch quietly retreated into the corner again.

"Now, do you understand why your elder sister insisted on Qiao Mu's resignation as princess?!"

The sage sat cross-legged on the couch, playing with a white porcelain sunflower dish, and asked casually.

The prince straightened up, and replied respectfully: "Son, I understand, it's all because I can't teach my daughter well, Ping An speaks nonsense, provokes the relationship between the sisters, and even ridicules and tries to assassinate Qiao Mu... No wonder sister is like this. Good-tempered people get mad, son—"

The saint frowned slightly, but his son still didn't understand. He sighed silently and said, "You think your sister is just angry?"

The prince was at a loss, looking at his father in confusion.

The sage put down the white porcelain plate, and said earnestly, "Your sister is not angry, she is afraid!"

The prince was even more puzzled, sister afraid?how is this possible?His elder sister is the head of the princes and princesses, even he, the crown prince, respects and loves his elder sister when he sees her. Why is elder sister afraid? !

Seeing this scene, the saint sighed again and again in his heart. After a long time, he waved his hands weakly, "Well, go back today and think about it carefully. When you understand it, come and tell me."
