The Emperor's Son-in-Law

Duan Chun listened to His Majesty's decree in surprise.

I went to work as a diplomat to deepen friendship with neighboring countries.

This was the first time he heard that he was actively asked to go on a mission to cause trouble.

Duan Chun quietly raised his head and glanced at the playful smile on His Majesty's face.

And the sinister look in his eyes.

Something feels wrong in my heart. His Majesty seems to be digging a hole for him...

It was clear that he was allowed to cause trouble, and after he caused trouble, His Majesty would deal with him again.

Why choose him?

Duan Chun's head immediately started spinning rapidly.

He has never been an official, and he is not a descendant of the Dakang royal family, and his father is the Duke of Dakangchang.

The first-class founding general...

Then Duan Ning's son holds a small official position.

There is no need to lose the face of Emperor Dakang by causing a little trouble...

Duan Chun immediately thought clearly about His Majesty's thoughts.

Let him get into trouble again without losing the people of the Dakang Empire.

What the emperor had in mind was quite beautiful!

"Wei Chen obeys the order, and Wei Chen will definitely satisfy His Majesty."

Duan Chun replied.

But I understand in my heart that although causing trouble is simple, it still has a certain artistic level.

When it's time to cause trouble, you must take action.

When you can't cause trouble, don't cause trouble for yourself.

You have to master a certain degree.

"Okay, you two go back and rest first."

"I will ask Li Gaofu to give you my will."

The emperor said with a smile.

"I excuse myself."

Duan Ning and Duan Chun both bowed their heads and saluted.

Turn around and walk out of the study room...

"Dad, what kind of official is the Dianke Attendant of Honglu Temple?"

"Your Majesty didn't make it clear to me either."

On the carriage, Duan Chun was still thinking about His Majesty's arrangements.

"Don't ask me this."

"I just lead the troops and train them. I will do whatever your Majesty tells me to do."

"That's what I'll do."

"I don't ask about anything else."

"I still have a headache even if I ask."

Duan Ning shook his head.

"Dad, if I become the prince-consort."

"According to the rules, am I not allowed to serve as an official in the court in the future?"

Duan Chun continued to ask.

"Who said that?"

"The prince-in-law can also serve as an official in the court."

"The second consort is currently serving in the Ministry of Personnel."

Duan Ning replied.

"Oh, that's right."

Duan Chun understood that the rules of the Dakang Empire were probably significantly different from the history he knew.

"Son, why did you get into trouble with Concubine Duan in the palace today?"

"Didn't I tell you not to provoke this woman?"

"She is from the Xiao family, and now her brother is Zhongshu Ling Xiao Yi."

"His Royal Highness King Wei is her son."

"Your Majesty likes King Wei very much. It would be better not to offend her in the future."

Duan Ning warned.

"Dad, I want to ask you something."

Duan Chun said with a smile.

"you say."

"Dad, even if my son goes to please Concubine Duan, or he goes to please King Wei."

"Will daddy also try to please them?"

Duan Chun asked.

"It's your business to please Concubine Duan and King Wei."

"Dad will only recognize Your Majesty in this life."

Duan Ning said disdainfully.

"That's it, no matter how the child pleases Concubine Duan and King Wei."

"My father is only loyal to His Majesty."

"Not only will they not accept the child, they will continue to guard against the child."

"Then why should the child please them?"

Duan Chun smiled.

He has now roughly figured out the current situation.

His Majesty the Emperor now has six sons competing for the throne, but the six princes are divided into two camps.

The eldest prince, King Qin, is the daughter of the empress.

The second prince, King Wei, was born to Concubine Duan.

Now these two people are the most likely candidates to be established as princes.

The reason why the emperor has not established a prince yet.

Duan Chun understood this after meeting his Majesty twice.

Your Majesty is the founding king of the country, and his decisiveness in killing is beyond the comparison of ordinary emperors.

So His Majesty is also thinking about how to choose the crown prince?

Perhaps Your Majesty has not found a prince who satisfies him so far.

Duan Chun, who had traveled through time, was keenly aware of this.

If you want to survive stably in this world, enjoy the rare noble life.

Now he can only be like his father and always be with His Majesty the Emperor.

As for who will be the prince and the emperor in the future, let’s take it one step at a time.

"What you said, kid, does make some sense."

"But you were not like this before..."

Duan Ning looked at his child in confusion.

The children he had before were not as smart as they are now.

"Dad, the child is only injured this time."

"I just have a lot of things figured out in my mind."

Duan Chun touched the bulge on the back of his neck and explained with a smile.

"That's good, son, do you really have a crush on Princess Xian?"

"If you really want to accept His Majesty's marriage offer to Princess Xian."

"In the future, those veterans in the government and the public will not look down upon you easily."

"There are many old guys who are very dissatisfied with me."

"I just don't care about them."

Duan Ning reminded.

"Dad, my child understands."

"Aunt Wan is the princess of the previous dynasty, but why was she imprisoned in Beiqiu Garden?"

"Is it really because of her status as a princess from the previous dynasty?"

Duan Chun asked hurriedly.

Oh, my father seems to have made many enemies in the court...

This further strengthened Duan Chun's idea of ​​entering the court as an official.

After all, the second-generation sons of the founding heroes did not seem to have a good life in history.

Some were even confiscated and exterminated!

If anything happened to my father, he, the only son, would not be able to escape.

He must first make himself strong and protect himself.

"I don't know."

"Your Majesty has not told anyone what happened ten years ago."

Duan Ning shook his head.

The father and son took a carriage all the way back to the Duke of Changguo's Mansion.

Duan Chun was unable to ask more useful information from this father.

He couldn't help but be speechless in his heart.

It's not without reason that this father is deeply trusted by His Majesty.

My father's mind is only on training and leading troops, and obeying His Majesty's will.

He really doesn't care about anything else...

Back in the mansion, the stepmother and the maid hurried to greet him.

"Chun'er, today I went to the palace. How is the Queen's health?"

"Did you choose the princess you like?"

Stepmother Zhang Feng pulled Duan Chun and kept asking.

Duan Chun knew that this stepmother and the Queen were half-sisters.

Especially her personality, which was almost exactly the same as the Queen's.

From childhood to adulthood, she treated Duan Chun like her own child.

"Mother, the Queen's health seems to have a problem."

"I have also chosen a princess."

Duan Chun helped the stepmother into the main hall and told her everything about the palace.

"How could the Queen get tuberculosis!"

"Even my father didn't know..."

"I have to go back and tell my father!"

Zhang Feng was immediately panicked.

"Don't worry, stepmother, the Queen's condition is not serious."

"She will be back to normal in a while."

"The Queen is resting now. Maybe she didn't make her illness public because she didn't want her family to worry."

"At this time, stepmother can't tell anyone about the Queen's condition."

Duan Chun hurriedly comforted her.

In his heart, he was thinking about how to treat the queen.

But he couldn't think of a specific method to treat tuberculosis.

"Can the queen really be fine?"

Zhang Feng asked in surprise.

"Believe me, the queen will be fine."

Duan Chun nodded.
