Although he thought so in his heart, Song Huan still nodded in agreement: "Ms. Concubine Shu is right."
"My father has worked hard for the affairs of the country and worked day and night. It is really hard."
"As a son, I have nothing to share, so I can only send some late-night snacks to replenish my father's health."
Looking at Concubine Shu's appearance, I'm afraid I'll have to prepare some big supplements next time I come to deliver late-night snacks!
Concubine Shu smiled sweetly: "I heard that horse bandits are causing trouble in Liangzhou now. Your Majesty is forgetting to eat and sleep and has a severe headache."
"If you princes could share some of the burden for His Majesty, Your Majesty wouldn't have to work so hard!"
Song Huan narrowed his eyes and looked at Concubine Shu in front of him with great interest.
Sure enough, after all the talk, the final topic still couldn't get around her son who was still in solitary confinement!
It's just that Concubine Shu is cautious and is not as embarrassing as Empress Shangguan with poor acting skills.
If it were the former owner's way of speaking without thinking, he would naturally mention the banned Song De when faced with Concubine Shu's words.
He even patted his chest and promised Concubine Shu that he would speak kindly in front of Emperor Liang and rescue Song De!
However, Song Huan had already seen through this and would not easily fall into Concubine Shu's trap.
"What Concubine Shu taught me is that I should go back as soon as possible, stay up late and study at night, and study hard on military books!"
"Strive to master the knowledge of leading troops in war as soon as possible, and quell the horse bandit rebellion for my father!"
After saying that, Song Huan ignored Concubine Shu's distorted face with shock, bowed and left.
At this level, you still want to dig a hole for yourself?
Not even close!
If you have this time, you might as well think about what kind of cool skirt to wear to attract Emperor Liang’s attention!
…
The next morning, the officials were still quarreling over the issue of horse bandits.
Some court officials believed that they should send a message by flying pigeons and quickly notify General Xu Rong and others to change their route and go to Liangzhou to quell the chaos.
Another part of the courtiers believed that killing a chicken with a bull's-eye is not a good idea. They are just horse bandits. As long as the second prince personally leads the troops to quell the chaos, they will be wiped out in minutes!
However, no matter how lively the debate among these courtiers was, Emperor Liang always remained gloomy and silent.
After finishing his work in the palace, Song Huan planned to go to the Imperial Hospital to check on Lu Qianxue's condition.
After all, she, a weak woman who had just lost her family, suddenly came into this scheming harem, and her situation might not be very good.
What's more, they can serve in the palace. These imperial doctors all come from a family of doctors. Most of them are pretentious and arrogant.
Can you be convinced by her film about a little-known girl?
Unexpectedly, before they could set out, Xiao Lingzi came to report.
"Your Highness, the Prime Minister has sent someone to deliver a message, inviting you to come to the Prime Minister's residence to have a talk."
Cheng Xun invited himself?
The affairs in the household department have come to an end, and the rest are trivial matters that can be dealt with according to the rules.
For no reason, what did Cheng Xun invite him to do?
In the impression, Cheng Xun should not be particularly satisfied with his son-in-law!
Song Huan was filled with many doubts, but he still changed into his casual clothes when leaving the palace and boarded the carriage to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Compared with the deserted scene when I went to the Prime Minister's Mansion last time, the Prime Minister's Mansion today has become a lot more lively.
There were many people lining up at the door, some of whom were holding greeting gifts, but they were sternly driven away by the housekeeper.
The remaining ones who looked more honest and low-key were waiting quietly outside the door.
Song Huan saw this scene in his eyes and found it a little funny.
It seemed that Cheng Xun had listened to his suggestions since the last meeting.
This is how it should be. He is a dignified prime minister, but he has no interaction with other courtiers.
If things go on for a long time, won't you become a loner?
At that time, who will be willing to be at your disposal!
Seeing that it was Song Huan who was coming, the housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion quickly showed his respect.
"Meet His Highness the Fourth Prince!"
"The Prime Minister has been waiting in the study for a long time. Your Highness, please come here."
Song Huan followed the housekeeper as he walked toward the study, meeting several visiting ministers along the way.
When they saw Song Huan, they all showed expressions of disbelief.
"Isn't it rumored that the Prime Minister is very dissatisfied with the fourth prince's son-in-law? Why would he still be invited?"
"Perhaps she came here specifically to beg him to let his daughter live!"
"Alas! Miss Cheng is the most beautiful woman in the capital, the object of admiration for many talented young masters! It is said that His Highness the Crown Prince is very attracted to her! How come the fourth prince... tuts..."
"Shh! Keep your voices down! The fourth prince is just stupid, not deaf..."
"With such a stupid brain, what's the difference between being deaf and being stupid? After all, he is a waste that no one cares about!"
"That's right! If I hadn't been lucky enough to be born into the royal family, I wouldn't have died among beggars!"
"Hahahaha! Mr. Li, don't you think it's too damaging?"
"..."
Just when several people were following Song Huan and pointing at Song Huan, they felt a sudden noise behind them.
Several people turned around and saw Cheng Xun coming out of the study, looking at everyone with anger on his face.
"As courtiers, how dare you point fingers at His Majesty the Prince!"
"How unbecoming is it to speak arrogant words!"
They didn't expect that Cheng Xun would suddenly appear and be so angry!
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister! I'm just talking casually without any intention. Besides, I'm also speaking for you..."
Several people lowered their heads and muttered unwillingly.
During the whole process, Song Huan remained expressionless and observed these people coldly.
Perhaps these people thought they were particularly humorous, especially speaking for Cheng Xun in front of him, which was a sign of flattery.
It's just that they calculated everything, but they never expected that Cheng Xun didn't buy it at all!
"As courtiers, you arrange the princes casually. This is a great disrespect to the royal family!"
"Your Highness, please calm down. I will never tolerate anyone who disrespects you!"
After hearing Cheng Xun's words and seeing Cheng Xun's respectful attitude towards Song Huan, several people's eyes almost dropped!
Especially the leader, Li Xuan, was the newly promoted deputy envoy of the Political Envoy Department.
I thought I had won this relationship with the Prime Minister, and I was complacent, but I didn't expect to be treated so harshly by Cheng Xun in the blink of an eye!
Moreover, what shocked several people even more was that Cheng Xun was so obedient to the fourth prince!
Why should a good-for-nothing prince make the prime minister be so respectful?
Several people subconsciously turned their eyes to Song Huan, and saw that although Song Huan had no expression on his face, he was not angry and intimidating, which made people dare not look directly at him!
Several people's hearts trembled, and then they realized how much trouble they had caused by their unscrupulous words just now!
Immediately his knees went weak and he lay on the ground facing Song Huan, nodding his head to the ground.
"Your Highness, the Fourth Prince, please calm down! Wei Chen really didn't mean it!"
"It's the Weichen who talks mean-spiritedly, and the Weichen who talks unscrupulously! The Weichen's crime deserves death!"
"Your Highness, you have a lot of people. Please bypass your subordinates! I will never dare to do so again in the future!"
