Although I knew that my father intended to abdicate, I didn't expect it to be so soon.

Throughout history, there are not many emperors who voluntarily abdicated. Most of them were forced to abdicate.

The emperor is not old, but his health is not as good as before.

Seeing the prince hesitate, the emperor said: "Jin'er, I have been diligent and diligent in government affairs for so many years, and I have never dared to slack off for a day. Only then did I manage the Dajing Dynasty to be prosperous and stable, and the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. But now I am not energetic enough and often feel insufficient. I don't want all these years of hard work to be ruined in the last few years."

"It's better to hand it over to you earlier, and it can also prevent your position from being feared by others."

Shao Simin's matter also made the emperor keep an eye on Prince An.

It seems that this son is also ready to make a move.

The emperor said again: "After Ji succeeds to the throne, if your brothers have a rebellious heart, don't be soft."

The prince looked at the emperor in surprise: "Father?"

After all, the father has always wanted to save the lives of his brothers, and the prince knows it.

The emperor coughed and said, "If you can keep your life, it would be the best."

The prince nodded and said, "Don't worry, father. As long as you don't cross my bottom line, I won't kill you."

The emperor was silent for a while.

He said, "You can do it."

The father and son talked about government affairs for a while. The prince has been helping the emperor to handle government affairs for a while. On weekdays, the emperor has taught him a lot.

At this time, the emperor taught him how to get along with his ministers, what kind of ministers have what kind of character, and what pain points.

Until the emperor was tired, the prince took his leave and returned to the East Palace.

The next day, the emperor summoned Concubine Xin and Princess Pingyi to Chenggan Hall.

"Greetings, Your Majesty."

"Greetings, Father."

The Emperor was very happy to see Princess Pingyi: "I'm here."

Princess Pingyi came to the Emperor: "Father, are you feeling better?"

The Emperor smiled and said: "Father, I'm fine."

"Pingyi is a grown-up girl now. I asked you and your mother to come here today to decide your lifelong affairs."

Pingyi is the fourth child and the Emperor's eldest daughter. The Emperor has only two daughters in total, and a seventh princess who is only five years old.

Daughters will not be involved in the fight for the crown prince, and since there are not many daughters, Pingyi has been favored since she was a child.

Pingyi blushed when she heard the emperor's words, and said coquettishly: "If my daughter doesn't marry, she will have to stay in the palace with my father and mother!"

The emperor smiled and looked at Xinpin: "Do you have anyone you like?"

Xinpin knew that the emperor took the initiative to give her the opportunity to choose, and she couldn't miss it, so she stepped forward and replied: "I think the prince of Yongchang Marquis's Mansion is very good, with outstanding character and the same age as Yi'er."

The prince of Yongchang Marquis's Mansion is Shu Yuwan's eldest sister, Shu Yuting's eldest son.

The emperor pondered for a moment, looked at Princess Pingyi, and asked, "What does Pingyi think?"

Pingyi said embarrassedly, "I listen to my father and mother."

The emperor saw it and said, "In this case, I will summon the Marquis of Yongchang to ask him what he thinks."

The mother and daughter returned to Xinpin's palace. Princess Pingyi asked, "Mother, I haven't seen the prince of the Yongchang Marquis's mansion. Is he really good?"

Xinpin said, "Can mother still harm you? Your grandmother has seen this child. She said he is a handsome man, handsome, modest and polite."

Princess Pingyi was somewhat satisfied when she heard that he was handsome.

Xinpin continued, "Besides, you see that your father has asked the prince to assist in politics. In the future, it will be your prince brother who will succeed to the throne. Your prince brother dotes on that Shu family. The prince of the Yongchang Marquis's mansion is the son of the eldest sister of the Shu family."

Princess Pingyi smiled and said, "No wonder he is handsome. I think the emperor's sister-in-law is very beautiful."

Xinpin smiled.

If Pingyi can have a good home, she has nothing to worry about.

The current Yongchang Marquis is Zheng Changping, Shu Yuting's husband.

He knows that he has mediocre ability, and he has been well-behaved since he inherited the title. The emperor summoned him alone, and Zheng Changping didn't know what was going on, so he was a little nervous.

The emperor's face was gentle, and he asked: "I heard that your eldest son has outstanding character and is a good match for Princess Pingyi. What do you think?"

Zheng Changping was a little confused when he heard it, and after reacting, he hurriedly said: "It is a blessing for me to be able to get the appearance of Princess Pingyi."

The emperor listened and nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, okay."

In the East Palace, Shu Yuwan smiled and said to the prince after hearing this: "Is your father going to arrange all the princes and princesses before abdicating?"

The prince told Shu Yuwan about the matter as soon as he returned to the East Palace yesterday.

Shu Yuwan was really excited.

As long as the prince has not ascended the throne, she will worry about whether something will happen in the future. As the princess's family, if the prince cannot ascend the throne, the Shu family will only end up worse than in the previous life!

Now that the prince has ascended the throne, she feels at ease!

At this moment, the whole person is much more relaxed.

The prince said with a smile: "It's best if father has finished worrying about it."

"I wonder what your sister's reaction is after hearing this news?"

...

Shu Yuting was a little surprised when she heard Zheng Changping's story at home, and then she complained to Zheng Changping: "My husband, how can you agree to it? If you marry the princess, Yan Ge'er will not have any great future in the court in the future. Even at home, he will have to bow down to the princess!"

"Now that my sister is the princess, Yan Ge'er's future is limitless!"

Zheng Changping said slowly: "Brother Yan's talent is not top-notch, and he has a calm temperament. He will inherit the title in the future, marry the princess, and live a peaceful and wealthy life. That's good. Why would he go to the court to fight for power and profit?"

Shu Yuting said angrily: "You think everyone is like you."

"There's nothing wrong with being like me."

Shu Yuting didn't want to argue with Zheng Changping anymore, and prepared to go to the East Palace to find Shu Yuwan. She must persuade the emperor to revoke his order before the imperial edict is issued!
