The queen said seriously: "If Zang Feng hadn't taken action in time, there would have been a fight between Cheng Qian and Qing Que in the future. They are both my biological children. I don't care who becomes the crown prince, but I definitely don't want them to kill each other."
"It's okay now. Zangfeng punished Qingque. Although it will cause him some pain, I am happy to see Chengqian interceding for Qingque. No matter what, it will be good for the two children to be harmonious."
"As for Qingque? He is still young, but he is very ambitious. He can easily go astray if he is not careful. It would be good to teach him a lesson."
Li Er nodded, and then asked a question: "But in this way, Qingque's path to competition is almost cut off? Isn't it unfair to Qingque?"
Um?
The queen looked at her husband in surprise, and couldn't help but look at her again, thinking to herself, how could you say this?
Li Er felt awkward and asked with a smile: "What? Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something wrong?"
Empress Changsun did not speak, but turned around and waved away all the maids and chamberlains, and the couple stood facing each other in the Li Zheng Palace.
The queen asked sternly: "What do you mean by your Majesty's words? Are you hoping that Qingque will compete with Cheng Qian for the position of crown prince? Didn't the checks and balances used by my father back then cause us enough misery? You also want to let your children Are we going to do it again?"
What?
"Guanyin Maid...I..." Li Er blushed and wanted to explain, but the queen didn't give him a chance.
"Back then, my father sat back and watched you fight with Brother Jiancheng so that he could securely sit on the throne. That was because either of you brothers had the ability to threaten his power. But it's different now. Cheng Qian and Qing Que both He is a newborn child, how can you bear it..."
As she spoke, the queen unconsciously covered her face and cried, sobbing and said: "If we have such a miserable life from generation to generation, why do we mothers have to grow up in this royal family? Please, your majesty, strip us of our titles and status. Just take your children back to the countryside and become ordinary people, as long as you can live in peace for the rest of your life."
Li Er, who originally wanted to explain that he didn't mean it this way, saw his wife burst into tears and thought about it, but decided not to explain. He stepped forward and hugged Madam, comforting her softly.
To be fair, although Emperor Li Er did not think of the trick of letting his two sons compete for the throne, he did think of finding a test stone for Li Chengqian. Since Li Tai jumped out, it might not be a bad idea. But his wife objected so much, and those sincere words also brought back heavy memories in Li Er's mind.
Let out a long sigh, forget it, find another way.
After a while, seeing that the queen had calmed down, Li Er said softly: "Guanyin, I don't want the children to fight, I just know that you love the children, so I want to ask your opinion. In case Qing Que is not convinced, I will complain to you." Woolen cloth?"
Empress Changsun pushed her husband away and said angrily: "Does Erlang look down on me so much? Is it possible that I am the kind of person who is narrow-minded and ignorant of the general situation?"
"Regardless of the order of elders and younger ones, as far as the sage is concerned, isn't Chengqian worthy of the position of prince? When he was young, he was indeed a little confused, but after some experience, he met The two famous teachers have made great progress now, and they have become more and more reassuring in the past two years."
"Your Majesty should know this better than I do."
Li Er reminded: "I do know that the idea of giving Qingque a chance was proposed by Cheng Qian."
The queen sneered and said: "That is Cheng Qian's humility, which just proves that this child is wise. None of us, including Qing Que, can use Cheng Qian's humility as an excuse for Qing Que's arrogance."
"Qingque did something wrong this time in the Jingxiang incident. In order to cultivate his own power, he ignored the lives of the people. When I first heard about this, I couldn't believe that this was our polite son. Erlang, You really should find a famous teacher to teach Qingque properly."
Li Er sighed: "Yes, you usually take care of the harem, but I am busy with state affairs, and we have neglected the education of our children. But there are countless famous teachers in the world, and the best one is of course Xiao Rui, but he... alas ! How about you take a trip to Xiaojiazhuang? "
Queen Changsun shook her head and said, "Xiao Rui can't do it."
Why? Don't you think highly of him? Li Er was puzzled.
The queen explained: "Xiao Rui is known as the best teacher in the world after Mr. Wenji, and his ability is undoubted. But because of this, there are vague rumors among the people that whoever wins Xiao Rui will win the world. Since he has promised to Your Majesty, In this life, I only teach one disciple, and that will be the best outcome for both public and private purposes."
"If Qingque is given this opportunity, what will happen if the other princes also want to learn from Xiao Rui?"
Whoever wins Xiao Rui wins the world?
Li Er nodded, this was not an exaggeration at all.
"I have to admit Xiao Rui's ability. Maid Guanyin, do you think he will... in case..."
future?
The queen held Li Er's hand and said seriously and firmly: "No! Zang Feng is not that kind of person."
Before Li Er could ask again, the queen smiled and said, "Erlang, have you ever seen a person with a personality like his? I'm afraid you've never heard of him. Zang Feng is a star king from the sky who has come down to earth and is not greedy for power. What he yearns for is ——The immortal in this world!"
"If it weren't for the fact that the imperial court encountered difficulties that he had to step in to solve, I think he would have preferred to never leave Xiaojiazhuang. Otherwise, why did he not live in the Duke's Mansion or the Champion's Mansion, but always lived in the farm outside the city? Woolen cloth?"
Li Er scolded with an envious smile: "So, it's me who has disturbed his good deeds?"
The queen smiled and said: "My father lives there, Erlang, why are you worried? Besides, if you are really an ambitious person, if you don't use your youth to strengthen your strength, will you have to wait until your old age?" Are you just starting out as an official?"
Li Er said worriedly: "I'm not worried about him, but if his children are born in the future..."
The queen could not answer this question.
Yes, we can all see that Xiao Rui does not admire power, but what about Xiao Rui's sons? If there is an ambitious person in the future, there is no guarantee that Xiao Rui will not help his son, and the Xiao family has been extremely noble and wealthy for generations!
After thinking about it, the queen suddenly smiled, "Look at me, why did you forget this? Chengqian and the others will have to deal with the future. If you and I are old, why don't we learn from our father's example? Live at your son-in-law's house for retirement, Although it is somewhat unethical, Erlang, you have to find excuses to stay there for a few days every year in that paradise."
oh? Learn from your father?
Yes! When I live directly at Xiao Rui's house, why does he still act strangely? Li Er was amazed. But in this case, I may have to pass the position in advance in the future...
“唉……萧锐这小子,让人又爱又恨。也就是他!换个人,谁敢当面威胁朕?有时候真想亲手揍他一顿。他如果是承乾该多好?偏偏只是A son-in-law. Maid Guanyin, is there any way to tie this kid up tightly? It’s better than doing something so nerve-wracking."
Tie tightly? The queen said to her heart, unless he is your biological child, how can such a good thing happen?
"By the way, it's not that there's nothing we can do. I'm just afraid that Erlang you won't be able to let go." The queen suddenly remembered something.
oh? any solution? Come on, as long as I can tame this lazy fool, it's worth the price, and I won't be reluctant to part with it.
The queen covered her mouth and smiled: "Really? What if the price is Changle?"
Changle? What Changle? What does this have to do with Changle?
