After Leng Xiao went out, the emperor said: "My daughter-in-law has some abilities. Her medical skills are particularly exquisite. She also has a deep love for the prince. If she can understand her in general, it will be perfect."
The old prince looked at him and said: "Where can there be a perfect person in the world? Is the emperor a perfect person?"
The emperor was startled, "I... naturally am not perfect."
"The emperor is not perfect, why do you require her to be perfect?"
The emperor smiled bitterly, "That's not what I meant. She is very good as she is, but she can be even better."
"The human heart is insufficient. If you have one point of good, you will want two points. If you have two points of good, you will want ten points. There will never be an absolutely good person."
"But she...is different. Now the prince only loves her, and the queen mother marries his concubine without even looking at her."
The old prince looked at him and laughed, "Emperor, do you still remember how long you guarded the concubine when she first came to you? You haven't touched another woman for two years, right? The concubine has only returned now. How long? One year is not enough, do you think this exclusive favor has lasted too long? "
When he mentioned that woman, the emperor's eyes darkened, disgust and complexity arose. Now he always felt a mixture of hatred and disgust towards her.
He was an emperor, and he showed his sincerity, but she didn't. She had always been hypocritical, making him look like a fool.
But even if he didn't want to admit it, he couldn't deceive himself. He did love her, deeply.
The old prince continued: "The prince is very capable, capable, benevolent and resourceful. He is the future wise king of our Wei Dynasty. Just pay attention to whether he can handle political affairs well. As for the married life of him and the prince, do not interfere as much." That’s good.”
When the emperor heard this, he was pleased, but also felt a little bit unspeakable.
A wise king? He is only a prince now, not an emperor.
As the emperor, he was still young and in strong health, and the Leng Party had collapsed, and the government was gradually becoming more stable. The emperor was still deeply loved by officials and people.
How sharp are the old prince's eyes? His complicated thoughts were immediately seen through by the old prince at a glance.
Since ancient times, emperors have been most afraid of powerful ministers and princes.
The emperor loves and appreciates the prince, and he really feels sorry for his son. However, the prince only needs to be obedient and obedient. If he wants to show his political ambitions, the emperor must be careful.
The Emperor may not be unaware of the events in Beidaying when King Jin started to stir up trouble, but he may be using this as a way to decentralize power and balance so that their brothers can fight first.
Those in power cannot see that the people below are harmonious. Judging from the obstacles the prince has encountered in the past two years, the emperor is still unwilling to truly give him power and will create some trouble for him overtly or covertly.
Taifu Lu is now a member of the East Palace, but the emperor has interfered a lot. He previously promoted Taifu Lu to a level where he could not bear any grievances and caused the prince to have a dispute with him. In fact, he was afraid that the court in the East Palace was too united and would blindly advocate The prince seizes power.
The old prince felt that he really couldn't die, and he had to hang on for a few more years to let the prince become more powerful and really do some practical things for the Wei Dynasty. Don't let these power struggles destroy his ambition.
Seizing power, seizing heirs, etc., will make people lose their purity of heart and become a coward, ruthless, jealous, suspicious, and not caring about the common people, with a pair of eyes only staring at the dragon chair crazily.
In fact, the emperor was afraid of him before, because he won the hearts of the military and the people. Fortunately, the emperor always remembered that when he came to the throne, he supported him vigorously and spared no effort, even being seriously injured and almost losing his life. This support, In addition, he had no heirs, so the emperor did not continue to guard against him.
