"I happened to pass by that small garden that day, and I saw that scene by accident, and then I knew her true face. Later, through several things, I felt more and more that she didn't want to be as good as she pretended to be on the surface. Among them, she is talking about her kind of American, so this kind of duplicity woman must not marry at home!" Eldest Princess Rong Xin said firmly.
After listening to his mother's narration, Lu Yuan suddenly felt as if he was struck by lightning, and his whole body was not well.
He is well aware of his mother's character. She is upright and frank, and she will never lie, but if she doesn't lie, that means, An An... indeed... duplicity!
This idea made Lu Yuan feel as if he had been hit by 10,000 points, and he couldn't accept it no matter what.
He has always loved An An deeply, and it has never changed over the years. He remembers that when he first saw An An ten years ago, she was still a little girl who hadn't changed her teeth. At that time, she was sitting in the palace of the Empress Dowager eating Apple, that big red apple is bigger than her face, and her little face is also flushed, like that apple, very flattering.
And her big bright eyes, as pure as the most crystal clear gems in the world.
At that moment, he was deeply attracted by this angelic little beauty. From then on, no matter where she was, his eyes would follow her.
From being curious and fond of her when he was young, to being ignorant and in love when he was a teenager, and now he is determined not to marry Feiqing, unconsciously, he has become deeper and deeper, completely addicted to her, unable to extricate himself.
Therefore, he can't accept that the woman he has admired for many years is a hypocritical and flashy woman, just like a fan who has been a fan for many years cannot accept that his (his) idol is a hypocrite. An'an is not only an object of admiration in his heart, but also a god and idol that cannot be desecrated in his mind for many years. In his youth and youth, she has always been the most beautiful scenery in his mind How could he have the heart to deny her, turning the holy and beautiful white jade statue in his heart into a pile of mud
Just as she was struggling with pain, Princess Rongxin just said again: "Ning'er is so nice, gentle, kind, generous and decent, a hundred times better than An'an, although she is not as delicate as her, but a good wife and concubine, a good wife and concubine. What's the use of being so beautiful in the main room? It's better than anything else if you can take care of the backyard so that you can work outside with peace of mind."
Princess Rong Xin originally said these words, and originally wanted to lower An An's position in her son's heart, but unexpectedly, it backfired. Hearing what his mother said, Lu Yuan tilted his heart towards An An, thinking that it might be because his mother liked Ning He was his cousin, so he deliberately discredited An An, so that he could dislike An An and accept Ning'er.
Although the mother's behavior is unlikely to deliberately discredit anyone, but, as the saying goes, you can never wake up a person who pretends to be asleep. Lu Yuan deliberately excused An An in his heart, so he took it for granted to find an excuse for her behavior .
The excuse was that the mother was lying. That incident did not exist in the first place, and the mother deliberately smeared it!
After making up his mind, he said resolutely, "Mother, An'an and I already have skin-to-skin relationship. As a man, my son is indomitable. How can he refuse to admit it after he has done it? So this time, whether you agree or not, my son will You must marry her!"
Princess Rong Xin knew Lu Yuan's feelings for An An, and she knew that she would not be able to persuade her, so she said: "The palace has not announced that King Zhan and An An are disengaged, so you just propose marriage like this. Where is the face of the Queen Mother and King Zhan? And where is An An's reputation? Do you want An An to bear the reputation of having one daughter and two marriages? Or do you want to trap our Princess Rongxin in an unjust situation? ?”
Lu Yuan is a man of temperament. He may not care about his own honor or disgrace, but he cannot but care about An An's reputation and his mother's reputation. Therefore, after hearing his mother's questioning, he hesitated for a long time before speaking.
"Mother, it's the son's lack of thoughtfulness that made mother angry. The son never thought of putting our family in an unjust place, and he never thought of making An'an bear a bad name. Now that the mother thought of the disadvantages of her son asking for a marriage It’s the same for the son not to ask for the decree first, and it’s the same when he goes slowly, but it’s just that the son has already recognized An An in his life, and even if he can’t marry her now, he will marry her sooner or later. number."
Seeing her son let go, Princess Rongxin felt a little more at ease. As long as he doesn't make any fuss and marry immediately, she will find a way to reveal An An's true face sooner or later, so that his son will come to his senses and stop being fascinated by her...
Miyazato
Empress Dowager Xiaoduan was lying on Ba Bu's bed with tears streaming down her face. She ran away from the caller to Lao Qi, and handed over the prince's gold seal and gold book to the emperor. She even resigned from the post of general. However, she babbled and scolded Lao Qi for being unfilial, and also scolded Shen Ruolan for being seductive, seducing her good son's soul and becoming rebellious and unfilial...
Princess Yurong was by her side, while comforting the queen mother, she expressed concern about the future of Lao Qi.
"Queen mother, don't cry, let's think about what Lao Qi will do in the future. Although the emperor retained his title, he didn't order him back. In my opinion, he has the right to command an army of 300,000 troops. I'm afraid it won't be guaranteed... "
Empress Dowager Xiaoduan cried bitterly: "He doesn't live up to expectations, so how can others help him protect it? Just help him protect it. If he doesn't want it himself, what can others do?"
"Queen, what should we do? Should we go to Lao Qi? We can't just let him go down like this!" Princess Yurong said worriedly.
The Empress Dowager Xiaoduan wiped away her tears and said, "What else can we do? You don't know his temper? He has a foul and hard temper, and even eight cows can't pull back what he decides. Forget it, let it go. Just let him go, he won't realize that he regrets it until he bumps his head full of big tendons, otherwise, even if we say the best, he won't listen to it..."
Princess Yurong said resentfully, "It was all caused by that little fox from the Shen family. If I knew that Lao Qi was bewitched by her like this, it would be better to get rid of this disaster..."
Empress Dowager Xiaoduan thumped her chest and said, "How dare I be sad? Old Seven already knew that we hated that little vixen. If we really want to do something to that little vixen, he will definitely remember us for the rest of our lives. I'm back again..."
"Then, let them go off like this?" Princess Yurong said.
"Otherwise, what else can we do? He didn't even want the throne and military power for that little bastard. Do you think there is any way for the Ai family to bring him back?"
Princess Yurong: "..." There is really no other way.
For the sake of the little vixen of the Shen family, Lao Qi not only lost the throne and military power, but also his mother and the ancestors of Chunyu's family. What else could make him leave that little vixen
After worrying for a long time, Princess Yurongchang said: "Mother, tell me, since Lao Qi has made up his mind to marry the girl from the Shen family, why don't we let him do it, because what you can't get is always the best." Yes, Lao Qi didn't marry that little vixen, so he naturally thinks she is very good. When he gets married, he will feel that it's just that after a while. When he gets used to that little vixen, we Get rid of her again, okay?"
"Not good!" Empress Dowager Xiaoduan flatly refused.
"The emperor has said that if he marries that little vixen, he will have to surrender the throne and military power. If we fulfill them, it is equivalent to admitting their relationship. The emperor's words cannot be changed. Why don't we let him come with her?" Go to the countryside, even if they get married in the countryside, we don’t admit it here, and we don’t count their relationship. After a year or so, the old seven is tired of it, and we won’t admit it when we want to come back. There is nothing the emperor can do about the door's marriage, at that time, he can teach the old seven a lesson, and by the way, he can ask the emperor for his throne and military power!"
Hearing the Queen Mother's plan, Princess Yurongchang thought for a while and found it very reasonable. If now, in order to get Lao Qi to come back, she reluctantly agreed to marry Shen Ruolan, the emperor would definitely issue an edict for the sudden death of King Zhan. Not only losing the throne and military power, but also losing his royal status, it's all over, so it's better, as the queen mother said, let them go to the countryside to mess around, and when he's happy, he's no longer obsessed with that vixen. Just throw away that vixen neatly and let him come back and continue to be his King Zhan!
It just so happened that I could take this opportunity to teach him a lesson!
Princess Yurong and Empress Dowager Xiaoduan were planning here, planning for Chunyuzhen's future, but the emperor had already elected the commanders of the 300,000 troops in Jizhou.
The emperor was worried about putting all the 300,000 troops in the hands of one person, so he planned to send Empress Chen's younger brother Chen Bingrong and Lu Yuan to lead the 300,000 troops together. The two could restrain and restrain each other. Controlling these 300,000 soldiers and horses together, there is no need to be afraid of being dominated by one person, and he will gradually become powerful, so he can feel at ease.
Empress Chen's younger brother, Chen Bingrong, was the one who redeemed the red cotton girl earlier. Because the emperor had long been worried about Chunyuzhen, he took the opportunity of sending him to Jizhou on business and asked him to monitor Chunyuxuan.
Chen Bingrong is a well-rounded man who knows how to be a man. He saw that the emperor was not at ease with King Zhan, and he was also afraid of King Zhan's prestige in the army. Therefore, when he returned, he did not say that King Zhan had rebellious intentions, but only praised King Zhan for how good he was in the north. The high reputation, how loved and respected he is in the army, and how brave and resourceful King Zhan was when he fought, and how brave and resourceful King Zhan was, who praised Chunyu as high as heaven and earth, is like no one in the ages. the king of the
The emperor was naturally unhappy when he heard Chen Bingrong's praise of Chun Yuzhen. As an emperor, what he feared the most was that the people below were too good, and he was afraid that their achievements would overwhelm the master. Like him, Chunyuzhen was the first emperor's son, he was afraid of it, but he is so capable, he can not only repel the invasion of the enemy country, but also win the hearts of the people, if such a person, if he is allowed to stay in the Jizhou is tantamount to leaving a disaster for himself, how can he rest assured
At first, he thought it would take a lot of trouble to force him to hand over his military power, but he didn't expect Chun Yuzhen to take the initiative to hand over the command of the 300,000 troops in Jizhou without paying attention, which really surprised him. , he can finally sit back and relax!
Empress Chen was overjoyed when she heard that the emperor wanted to use her younger brother. Although the emperor didn't love her, he still trusted and relied on her, and he also showed great favor to her mother's family. Before, she wanted to marry her little sister, Chen Kouzhu, to Lao Qi's side as a side concubine. At any time, she was a side concubine on the surface, but in fact she was doing it carefully, but he could think of using someone from her natal family to do such a thing. It can prove the trust in her, otherwise, why don't you see him asking Concubine Du Gui, Concubine Mu Xian and their mother's family to do these things
Hearing the emperor's arrangement, the crown prince Chunyu Yin frowned and said to the queen: "Mother, my son thinks it is inappropriate for the emperor to do this!"
When Empress Chen heard this, she hurriedly covered his mouth, looked around nervously, and saw that there were people of her own all around, and then said in a low voice: "What nonsense are you talking about? Are you the one who dares to criticize your father? Be careful that your father finds out!"
When Chunyu Yin heard the words, his expression darkened, and he stopped short.
The palace is not a place where one can tell the truth, even if he is the prince!
Although he very much hopes that he and his father can discuss issues openly and honestly like father and son in other families, without worrying about which sentence he says is right and which sentence is wrong, and he doesn't need to speak against his father's thoughts, and he doesn't need He was worried that he would be rejected and ignored by his father if he said a wrong sentence, but he also knew that this was impossible.
From the day he was born, no, from the day he became sensible, the queen mother began to teach him how to please his father, how to win his father's love, if he wanted to keep his crown prince status among all the princes, or keep his If you and your mother have a worry-free life, you have to do what your mother says.
To please the emperor, to make friends with courtiers, to be friendly to brothers, to honor the queen mother...
However, he really doesn't like this kind of hypocritical life, this kind of life with only ethics but no human touch, it's really not something he should live as a child.
Sometimes, he often envies the common people, at least their relationship between father and son, husband and wife, and mother and child is real and warm, and they treat each other sincerely, relying on each other and loving each other.
Unlike their royal family, whether it is between husband and wife or between father and son, between brothers or between sisters, everyone has a lock in their hearts, carefully locking up their truest emotions, wearing a mask, full of ethics No one can know the other party's true feelings when communicating with morality. This kind of hypocritical and indifferent life is long enough for him. If it weren't for the poor mother, he would have resigned from the crown prince and become a vassal king. I went to live in the same place, and saved myself from seeing the eerie hypocrisy and ugliness in the palace all day long.
"Remember, no matter what your father arranges, it is right. You must unconditionally support his decision, not speak out against him, remember?"
Chunyuyin sighed softly, and said a little weakly: "Son, remember!"
"Just remember, you must not make your father angry. Two days ago, your father said that the second child's homework has improved again. As the eldest son, if you are passed by the second child , the mother's life is meaningless!"
Seeing the mournful face of the empress mother, Chun Yuyin felt that the empress would definitely cry if he was talking too much, so it was better not to say it!
He silently closed his mouth, got up and said: "Mother, the son knows, and he will be cautious in his words and deeds in the future, and will not make the mother and father worry about it anymore!"
Even if he knew that Uncle Qi's coming down would cause turmoil in the north, make Wusun, who had just subsided, ready to move again, and even provoke a war between the two countries, but in order to prove that his father's decision was correct, he had no choice but to shut up first. Let things develop slowly!

Prime Minister's Mansion
When Chen Bingrong got the news from the queen and knew that the emperor was going to entrust him with a heavy responsibility, he was so happy that he almost laughed out loud.
He was almost thirty years old, and the emperor finally began to promote him, and he finally had a day of success.
What kind of prestige is it to lead an army of 300,000 in the north? Maybe he can still take this opportunity to become famous through the ages, forever in the annals of history, hehehe...
His concubine Hongmian girl was also very happy when she heard that he was going back to the north to take up a post.
Chen Gongzi likes to listen to her songs the most, and it happens that he is tired of listening to the few songs she knows. When she goes back this time, she must find that girl Shen and ask her to teach herself a few good songs, so that he can learn more. She is a favorite!
