A happy event in a fertile field: the black-bellied husband is as beautiful as a flower

Chapter 927 A Very Interesting Thing
Xia Shi said: "Is there a way to contact Jingyun?"

The people in the house invited Mrs. Xia to wait in the hall, and immediately some people left the private house quickly.

Xia only waited for a cup of tea before Jingyun appeared in front of her.All the other people were evacuated.

The Xia family went straight to the point and said: "I'm about to leave for Li country, please send someone to tell Archer about it. Also, during this period, if something happens to Yin Wu's palace, please take care of it."

Jingyun bowed his head and said: "Madam, please rest assured, Jingyun will immediately report to your lord as Madam ordered, and your lord will definitely do his best."

After explaining, Xia hurriedly left this place and went to meet Xu Shenfang.

The secret guards of the Chongxian faction had been secretly escorting them dozens of miles away from Beijing before returning.

It was already afternoon when I came back.

The dark guard reported that the Xia family and Xu Shenfang had left the capital smoothly and proceeded according to the planned itinerary, Meng Yan then breathed a sigh of relief.

***
The emperor seldom left the palace in public in these years, so there were few records in the palace's internal affairs office and historians.

In fact, he goes out every once in a while.This is a very private matter, only Eunuch Huang is responsible for the preparation, except for the confidant guards around him, no one knows about it.

It's time to go out tonight.

After the emperor finished handling the government affairs, Eunuch Huang came to report at the right time: "Your Majesty, everything is ready."

After the emperor entered the screen, he changed into plain clothes, and the servants of the imperial study room still stayed in the imperial study room, and the lights were not turned off, pretending that he was still dealing with state affairs.Whoever comes will be stopped outside.

The emperor only took Eunuch Huang with him, and left quietly in a light car.

It's just that as soon as he left, a eunuch rushed to the central palace and reported the matter to the queen.

The queen looked normal, and waved the eunuch to retreat.

The emperor will go out of the palace in micro-clothes once every two months, and it is always at night, and there has never been any record in the palace.This is something the queen has only discovered in the past two years.

She didn't say anything, but spent some time figuring out the purpose of the emperor every time he went out of the palace, which made her discover a very interesting thing.

Right now, after the emperor brought Eunuch Huang out of the palace, Eunuch Huang ordered people to go to the place before, but this time he just left the palace not far away, but the emperor said: "Let's go to Xu Ge's hometown first."

When the emperor went to Xu's house at night, Mr. Xu Ge was surprised and flattered. Mr. Xu Ge immediately wanted to salute, but was stopped by the emperor.

Afterwards the emperor sat in the hall, Elder Xu Ge withdrew everyone, and then repeatedly persuaded: "How can the emperor leave the palace so rashly, if there is an urgent matter, just summon the old minister, and the old minister will escort the emperor back to the palace."

The emperor waved his hand and said, "You don't need to be so nervous, I'll come over and sit down, and discuss something with you by the way."

Elder Xu Ge sat on the side and said, "Old minister, listen attentively."

The emperor asked: "Which prince does Xu Aiqing think is suitable for the crown prince?"

Elder Xu Ge fell into silence, and then said: "The old minister dare not speak nonsense."

The emperor said: "Elder Ge has been an official in the court for many years. The late emperor told me that you can ask Elder Ge for advice on important national affairs. Today I want to hear your opinion."

Elder Xu Ge pondered slowly: "I beg your majesty to forgive me. According to my humble opinion, all the princes have their own strengths, but when it comes to rulers, none of them are impressive. They are just not satisfactory."

Elder Xu Ge didn't say clearly who was suitable and who was not, but only made a general comment.After all, I have been with the emperor for many years, how can I not understand that the emperor is not a king without his own opinions, since he asked such a question, he must have some deep meaning.

It's just that Xu Ge's remarks are not nonsense, it's just a matter of fact.

The emperor nodded and said: "Elder Ge also just said what was on my mind." Then he thought about it and asked, "Elder Ge thinks, what about the Seventh Prince?"

The Seventh Prince is Elder Xu Ge's nephew, and Elder Xu Ge has been painstakingly cultivating him.It's just that if he was good enough, I'm afraid the emperor wouldn't ask such a question.

Sui Xuge said in an old way: "The seventh prince values ​​benevolence and filial piety, is refined and prudent, self-restraining and respectful, which is admirable. It's just that the seventh prince is too docile and good at listening to opinions, but he is also easily swayed by the opinions of others. He must govern for the emperor. For all the court officials, if they are influenced everywhere, it will be a big disadvantage if they fail to make a decisive decision."

The emperor said: "It's hard to be an old man who can tell me what's on his mind. A Rong is an excellent child, and I have placed high hopes on him. It's a pity that he has a concubine who is gentle and willing to control."

Although Mr. Xu Ge carefully cultivated the Seventh Prince, taught him to read sage books and learn to govern the country, but he could only teach him knowledge, but could not train his mind.A person's character has a lot to do with his environment.

Yin Rong grew up beside Concubine Xu since she was a child. Concubine Xu treated him very well, but at the same time, this kindness also meant that Concubine Xu would worry about him everywhere, make arrangements for him, and even use her own ideas to control him. His and her opinions will account for a large proportion in Yin Rong's cognition, and gradually develop Yin Rong's meek and easily swayed temperament.

The emperor came at night, not just to talk about these things with Mr. Xu Ge.

Then he stood up on his knees, and said again: "Mr. Ge, follow me. I have a candidate, and I want Mr. Ge to refer to it."

Elder Xu Ge's expression was serious, and at the same time his heart sank, he stood up and walked out of the hall.

At the gate, the emperor invited Mr. Xu Ge to sit in the carriage together.

The carriage stopped in a quiet house.

The emperor and Mr. Xu Ge entered the house, and the emperor told the servants in the house not to say anything, so he took Mr. Xu to the backyard.

It was late at this hour, but the lights were still on in the backyard.

The emperor stood in front of the door and knocked on the door, and a clear voice came from inside: "Please come in."

The emperor opened the door, and saw a handsome young man in the study, reading at night with the lamp on.

The man wore ordinary clothes, but his temperament could not be concealed.

When he looked up and saw the emperor and old Xu Ge, he got up and saluted without being humble or overbearing.

Mr. Xu Ge was really shocked, because of the man's appearance, he was vaguely similar to Concubine Xu.

Seeing Elder Xu Ge's expression, the emperor knew that he could see it. He smiled secretly and said, "What does Elder Ge think of this child?"

"he is……"

The emperor said bluntly: "He is my favorite son."

The emperor left enough time for Elder Xu Ge to think for himself.

Elder Xu Ge knew very well that Concubine Xu only had one child, the Seventh Prince, and this one is definitely not the son of Concubine Xu.But why does he look somewhat similar to Concubine Xu?
Later, Xu Ge gradually understood.

It's not that he is similar to Concubine Xu, but Concubine Xu is similar to him.To be precise, Concubine Xu should be similar to his biological mother.
