Chapter 123 The Pearl of the Sea (Pink 120+)

Several people stopped in their tracks, looked at each other, and guessed why Emperor Yuanchang asked them to stay.

"Thank you, father-in-law." Both Shengchanghou and Zhenxianhou thanked each other.

Under the leadership of Lou Youde, everyone entered the imperial study.

Emperor Yuanchang took off his dragon robe and changed into the usual brocade robe embroidered with double dragons, and was at his desk reviewing the memorial.Seeing Old Master Xue, Xue Ziyou, father and son Sheng Changhou coming in, Emperor Yuanchang nodded slightly and asked the eunuch to give them seats.

Several people sat down, and Emperor Yuanchang pointed to the thick stack of memorials on the Yushu case, and asked the eunuch to show it to Shengchanghou and Zhenxianhou.

The two Hou Ye looked over and saw that after the first seven days of the empress, the ministers discussed the matter of setting up a queen and a crown prince.

Emperor Yuanchang stood up and said with a smile to the members of the Xue family and the Sheng family: "This is only a small part, there are still a large number of memorials, all of which are written to the early establishment of the reserve and the early consolidation of the country. Master Xue and Mrs. Sheng Fu Jie is my humerus minister, and I would like to hear your views on establishing a prince and queen."

Sheng Xiumu, the third master of the Sheng family, couldn't help but think in his heart, it's really embarrassing. The Xue family definitely wants to make the second prince the crown prince and the concubine Xue the queen; rear.The emperor knew what the two families were thinking, so he deliberately asked this question.

How to answer this?

The two Marquis also remained silent for a while, they were all guessing Emperor Yuanchang's intentions, for fear of offending the emperor by saying something wrong.

"Grand Master Xue, what do you think?" Emperor Yuanchang asked suddenly.

Old Master Xue smiled, and said: "Your Majesty, the old minister is just an idle job of the Grand Master. If the Holy Grace favored him, he would have retired from his official position long ago. How dare the veteran make random remarks about important affairs in the court? Sheng Taifu is in the prime of life and is a pillar of the country. The old minister wants to hear Listen to Taifu Sheng's opinion."

Rely on the old and sell the old, kick the problem to Shengchanghou.

Sheng Changhou hated Old Master Xue's cunning in his heart, and said: "Grand Master Xue is too modest. You are a hero of the three dynasties, and you are more knowledgeable than me. We all listen to Grand Master Xue's great opinions."

blame each other.

Old Master Xue laughed: "What are the heroes of the three dynasties, old bones. It's just the sage's grace that has been living in the court for many years. In the future, our sage will rely on Taifu Sheng as the mainstay. You just say it's okay."

Emperor Yuanchang saw that the two old foxes were pushing each other, so he knew that he couldn't ask why, so he laughed and interrupted the game between the two princes: "It's not for this reason to keep a few of you today. He Desheng returned to the court, I have prepared a family banquet, and I would like to invite Grand Master Xue to accompany him."

After finishing speaking, he turned to ask Sheng Xiuyi, "Tianhe hasn't met the fourth prince yet, has he?"

Sheng Xiuyi's trip to the northwest was jointly recommended by the Marquis of Shengchang and the Marquis of Zhenxian.Now that there is a banquet in the palace to welcome him, it is reasonable to invite Marquis Zhenxian and the son of Marquis Zhenxian to accompany him.

Besides, both are royal relatives.

Sheng Xiuyi got up quickly and said respectfully: "I congratulate Your Majesty on the birth of a dragon son. I haven't seen the fourth prince yet."

Emperor Yuanchang laughed, got up and took them to the Xining Palace for a banquet.

He also ordered Lou Youde: "Go and bring the fourth prince and show it to Uncle Guo."

Lou Youde said yes.

Several people followed Emperor Yuanchang to the Xining Palace in the southwest corner of the Imperial Study Room for dinner.

There have already been prepared delicacies, fine wine and mash.

Emperor Yuanchang ranks first, followed by Zhenxianhou, Shengchanghou, Mu Enbo, Sheng Xiumu, Xue Ziyou, and Sheng Xiuyi.After sitting down, a servant came in to serve the meal.

Xiangzhu curtains hung all around, and there was a sound of rustling footsteps, and the musicians sat lightly behind the curtains.After a while, the melodious sound of silk and bamboo came into my ears.

After drinking for a few rounds, Emperor Yuanchang seemed to be drunk.

The servant brought the fourth prince in his arms.

Sheng Xiuyi stepped forward to salute the fourth prince who was in his swaddling clothes, and praised him for his rich appearance.

Emperor Yuanchang saw that Sheng Xiuyi did not have the arrogance of a young man at all, and was cautious in his words and deeds, even a little timid.He really couldn't believe that Sheng Xiuyi could subdue those big bosses in the Northwest Camp.

But in front of Shengchanghou and Zhenxianhou, Emperor Yuanchang couldn't question the heroes.

The servants hugged the four princes, and the Marquis of Zhenxian and Marquis of Shengchang also stepped forward to salute.

After a circle, the servant carried the fourth prince down again.

Emperor Yuanchang glanced at Sheng Wenhui and Sheng Xiuyi who were sitting at the bottom, put the wine bottle on the table, and asked with a smile: "I heard that Roujia is pregnant with Liujia, is the young master not yet born?"

Dong Yuan is the princess of Roujia, who was bestowed by the imperial court, and the sister of Emperor Yuanchang.So when he asked about Rou Jia, his tone was very casual, as if a brother cared about his sister.

When Sheng Xiuyi left, Dong Yuan only guessed that she was pregnant, but did not confirm the diagnosis.

Appears to be pregnant.

His hand holding the silver ivory tightly tightened slightly, and then loosened in an instant.

And the other people present were all thumped in their hearts, how could they ask Dong Yuan properly?Emperor Yuanchang's thoughts on Dong Yuan, he was even stabbed by Dong Yuan once, others may not know it, but Sheng Changhou, Zhenxianhou, Xue Ziyou, Sheng Xiuyi, Sheng Xiumu knew it clearly.

Sheng Changhou felt a little wary in his heart, but he didn't dare not answer: "Your Majesty, the imperial doctor said that the princess is going to give birth in the next few days. But the child has not yet been born."

Emperor Yuanchang's expression paused slightly.

Everyone can see clearly.

A little uneasiness welled up in Master Xue's heart.

Mrs. Xue said that Emperor Yuanchang never suffered too many losses in his life.It took eight years for the empress dowager to win the crown prince, and the former emperor doted on him in every possible way.If it is said that he is not able to fulfill his wish, it is the Queen Mother and Taifu Xiao.

Before Taifu Xiao was removed, the Queen Mother went crazy.

Now Taifu Xiao is also convicted.

So the only thing he can't ask for recently is Xue Shi Dongyuan.

"Zhen..." Emperor Yuanchang stood up suddenly, his body swaying a little, as if he was drunk, and Lou Youde hurriedly supported him.

Emperor Yuanchang pushed his hand away and said, "I'm not drunk." Then he stood staggeringly, and said loudly, "I have practiced for six years, and now the country has only stabilized and the thieves have been eradicated. These years, The power of my country and mountains has fallen to one side, causing the people of Li to suffer. This is the injustice of the king."

Then he walked down the high steps slowly, with his hands behind his back, his body still swaying slightly.

The imperial guard followed behind him cautiously.

He continued: "The empress dowager was pregnant in ten months, and she gave birth to me. Now that the civil strife has been eliminated, the empress dowager is seriously ill and unconscious, and I am helpless. This is unfilial to my son."

"The empress collapsed, and the Xiao family was ruined before the service was delivered. Although the law of the country cannot tolerate the Xiao family, I am ashamed of my beloved wife. This is my husband's inhumanity."

Emperor Yuanchang said slowly as he walked.

He seemed to be describing some of his major crimes.

In the end, he stood in front of Sheng Xiuyi, paused for a while, and then said: "...Pearl left in the sea, this is because of my father's unkindness."

This sentence was exported, and everyone present heard it clearly.

No matter how sophisticated and calm he was, without showing his emotions or anger, Lord Zhenxian also changed his face.

The Pearl of the Sea....
Unkind to the father...

No wonder he said Dong Yuan just now.

The golden bottle in Sheng Changhou's hand fell to the ground with a bang, and his lips trembled.Emperor Yuanchang meant that the child in Xue's Dongyuan's belly was a dragon species and a bright pearl in the sea.

Sheng Changhou's hands shook involuntarily.

Sheng Xiumu was no less shocked than Sheng Changhou.

Xue Ziyou, son of Zhenxian Hou, also clenched the ivory bag tightly.

Among the people present, only Sheng Xiuyi lowered his head slowly, no one saw his expression.

Emperor Yuanchang glanced at the crowd and knew that the effect had been achieved. His body shook slightly again, and he asked Lou Youde loudly: "How many crimes did you just say?"

Lou Youde stepped forward to help him: "Your Majesty, you are drunk..."

Emperor Yuanchang laughed: "...Am I drunk? I have never been drunk. Now this forbidden palace and the world are in charge of me, which is a great joy. I am happy, and I have never been drunk. Who has never been drunk before ancient and modern emperors? I also Had."

As he spoke, his body tilted slightly, and several guards hurriedly supported him.

He just closed his eyes.

Lou Youde ordered the guards to carry Emperor Yuanchang back to his bedroom, and said to Zhenxianhou and Shengchanghou: "You two lords, please leave. Your majesty is drunk, and the servants are going to serve your majesty."

Both Zhen Xianhou and Sheng Changhou sat in a daze, and did not answer for a long while.

Lou Youde only felt that the atmosphere in the hall was frighteningly stagnant, and hurriedly retreated out without waiting for them to say anything.

The musicians and serving eunuchs also retreated.

Only a few people from the Xue family and the Sheng family remained in Xining Palace.

After a long while, Sheng Changhou suddenly stood up, staring at Zhen Xianhou with red eyes: "Old Hou Ye, your family style is really clean!"

Xue Ziyou's expression became even uglier.

The words of Marquis Sheng Chang clearly blamed Zhen Xianhou for not teaching Dong Yuan well.

"Marquis Shengchang, the princess married into your house in April, and now it's the first day of March. You should think about it before you talk." Xue Ziyou said angrily.

Old Master Xue stood up, smiled calmly, stopped Xue Ziyou, and said, "Okay, let's go out of the palace."

As he spoke, he glanced at Sheng Xiuyi.

At this moment, Sheng Xiuyi still lowered his head, unable to see his expression clearly.

Old Hou Ye felt that he was panicked, so he walked out quickly.

After Zhen Xianhou and Xue Ziyou had left for a while, Sheng Changhou said sharply to his two sons: "Go home!"

After all, he walked out first.

Sheng Xiumu looked at his father, then at Sheng Xiuyi who had been bowing his head, and said in a low voice, "Brother..."

Only then did Sheng Xiuyi raise his face, his expression was still cold, and there was nothing unusual about him.He stood up, straightened his clothes and said, "Go back."

As soon as he walked out of the palace gate, the steward of the Sheng family came to meet him in a carriage with a servant.

"Master Hou, son, grandma has given birth, she is a young master." The steward stepped forward happily to salute Sheng Changhou, Sheng Xiuyi and the others. Grandma gave birth to a young master.

Looking up, the steward didn't see the joy he expected on the faces of Shengchang Hou and his son, but found that the already serious eyebrows of Master Hou became more and more cold.

And Shi Zi frowned lightly, with a cold smile on his face, he said, "Really?"

Sheng Changhou gave him a hard look.

Sheng Xiuyi suppressed his smile.

"Go home!" Sheng Changhou got into the carriage, and when he gave instructions to the groom, his voice was full of anger.

The steward and the servants were all at a loss.

But I also know that Hou Ye, Shizi Ye, and San Ye are not happy.

Not daring to say anything more, the group returned to the Shengchanghou Mansion.
