"Brother, you know that the ministers will not agree to let that child succeed to the throne. They would rather let you choose a son of the clan to adopt."
Xiao Lingchen said with pride: "Of course I have a way."
His method was to put on a show for the world.
The "deposed emperor" escaped from pursuit. Many years later, Emperor Yongzhao and the empress died of serious illness at the same time, leaving no heirs. The "deposed emperor" came back, regained the throne, and changed his reign to Guangxing.
The Xiao family emptied out of the building overnight, and everyone was worried and suspicious. However, Emperor Guangxing quickly came forward to deny the rumors, and posthumously named Emperor Yongzhao and the late empress, openly recognizing them as the emperor's father and mother, and invited them to the Ancestral Temple. Treat each other with respect.
Seeing his sincerity, the ministers reluctantly tolerated their anger.
When the Emperor Guangxing's coronation ceremony was held, a large ship was swaying along the coast of the South China Sea, carrying a full ship of people away from the coast.
If there are people from the capital here at this time, they will definitely be surprised to find that all the Xiao family, who are said to have disappeared, are actually on this ship!
"Look, wow, I caught a strange fish!"
"Hahaha, I didn't expect there to be so many good things in the South China Sea. It's much more fun than the capital! I don't want to go back to the capital!"
"Then we have to thank the master for bringing us out!"
On the bow deck of the ship, a man who has passed his age but is still handsome has a tall body and a somewhat contented look on his face.
"...Emperor Guangxing? He got the title of the emperor well. At the beginning, you found and rescued that boy from a beggar pile. He treated you as your mother's filial piety. After hearing my plan, the brat actually said, It’s okay for me to leave, but you have to stay and enjoy the blessings, so I’ll just beat him up.”
The woman in his arms couldn't laugh or cry: "Brother, who can understand your plan? Besides, that little guy looks different from the deposed emperor, won't the officials be suspicious?"
"He looks somewhat similar to the deposed emperor. The young ministers have never seen the deposed emperor. They all acquiesced when they saw the old ministers. How could they be suspicious? And the old ministers... hmph, they are all old-fashioned, they are all trustworthy, how much do they know? The truth, plus Helian is still watching, so there won’t be any big trouble.”
"Aren't you afraid that I will be angry if you are so silly?"
"If they dare to force you and say that the palace has no children and ask for a draft, I dare to throw away the country and just take you with me."
Xiao Shisan was cutting fruit for Cuiyu on the side. Hearing this, he rolled his eyes and curled his lips rudely.
"Master, you have already suffered a lot in this life, so don't try to break the limits of our knowledge again and again, okay?"
Xiao Lingchen didn't look back, raised his hand and smashed an orange over.
Xiao Shisan ducked with a playful smile and said, "Girl, am I right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he was kicked by Cuiyu angrily: "You are becoming more and more unruly now, how can you talk to the master like this!"
"... Cuiyu, even you come to kick me." Xiao Shisan felt aggrieved, "Girls are still protecting their masters, but you beat me every day."
"Because you deserve a beating!"
Tong Su smiled and watched the two people quarreling. Xiao Lingchen put his arms around her waist, and she was also in his arms, enjoying the sea breeze.
"Although that child is young and has a lot of ideas, you don't have to worry about him staying in the capital alone. Those old ministers are not enough for him. Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. From now on, it will be the next generation's world."
"I'm not worried about him, I'm only worried about you - brother, are you really willing to leave? That is the supreme position above ten thousand people, are you willing to do it?"
He chuckled, lowered his head and kissed her on the forehead, his eyes gentle.
"What's the point of being reluctant to leave? Being lonely and cold at the highest place, how can I compare with accompanying you to see the vastness of the world and the vastness of the rivers and lakes?"
The wind was calm and the sea and sky were the same color. Looking into the distance, I could only see the undulating snow-white waves in the distance, with the faint shadow of jumping fish.
In the blue sky, the sky is connected to the water, and the water is connected to the sky. Everywhere is the most beautiful in the world.
