Chapter 352

Not long after Yao Shu and Yao Feng's brothers and sisters went south, the situation in the capital changed a lot.

because of the burial of the imperial concubine, the emperor lost his temper in the imperial court, and nearly dismissed Zhao, the Minister of rites. After being coaxed by the courtiers, he only lifted himself up and fell gently.

The Emperor allowed Mr. Zhao to return home for half a month, but in fact gave him half a month's imprisonment.

On this day, the court retreated.

The emperor asked Duke Da to summon Xie Qian and went to the hall where he dealt with government affairs.

Xie Qian, dressed in purple edged black clothes, walked slowly to the front of the hall. He happened to meet a serious looking Lin radial. After a brief conversation, they separated quickly.

When Xie Qian arrived in the hall, he saw the iron faced emperor standing beside the case, sulking.

Xie Qian knelt down and saluted: "see your majesty."

The emperor waved his hand and said impatiently, "get up and talk nonsense?"

As he spoke, he threw the memorial in his hand to Xie Qian. He frowned and angrily said, "look, look! No wonder I can't control my temper and want to take down the one surnamed Zhao. Look what a group of moths in the etiquette department are writing to me all day long

Xie Qian took the memorial firmly and read it quickly.

With the same look, he went to the front of the imperial case, gently put the memorial on the table, and said in a light voice: "the emperor has known the conduct of these people for a long time. Why should he be angry?"

The emperor said angrily, "knowing is knowing, but I have to support these mediocre people and give them food and clothing, salary, official position and honor! How to prevent people from being oppressed? "

The expression on Xie Qian's face is as plain as water, which makes people look at it, as if his mind can calm down slowly.

The emperor gazed at him without blinking for a while, feeling much better, and listening to Xie Qian say, "it's not impossible to dismiss him. It's just that the emperor should not be impatient. He should take his time step by step. "

The emperor took a deep breath and exhaled.

He rubbed his eyebrows, sat down on the chair, and sighed, "not only is this Zhao handle like this, but there are so many descendants of these aristocratic families. I just wanted to move one, and immediately seven or eight of them joined hands to protect him. How can I move? "

Only today he lost his temper, and the final result was just a little punishment for Zhao Bing, which didn't play a very important role.

Xie Qian stood beside the emperor and said in a calm voice: "I still have that sentence. The emperor's actions must not be urgent."

The emperor headache way: "lovely Qing is not don't know, I am such a pair of acute son, how can?"

When he was a child, the first emperor had a problem. No matter whether he knew it or not, he always had to seize the opportunity to speak first, and then he thought about whether he would.

If not, he looked at the prince and asked him to help.

Later, the prince failed to ascend the throne, and his brothers all died in the struggle for the throne. He was left to sit in this vexed seat and was eroded by the pleasure of power day by day.

And the desire for control also increased day by day, making his temper more and more irritable.

Xie Qian didn't have to think much, he could see the worry in his heart from the eyes of the emperor; he could also see that the emperor had already realized the negative influence of this son.

His voice was still calm and powerful. He whispered to the emperor, "the emperor has learned a lot of tricks since he was a child. Can't you forget it? Just follow it. What's more, there are ministers here, and I will remind your majesty from time to time. "

The emperor looked at Xie Qian's quiet eyes, which was hidden in the bottom of his heart, and gradually calmed down with Xie Qian's breath.

After the emperor's expression had completely calmed down, Xie Qian said again: "does the emperor want to change the position of Zhao handle? As long as he finds the wrong place, the emperor can't save him by thunder and lightning. "

With a smile on his face, the emperor said, "come on, just sit in this seat for me, face up and down every day, try to figure out the different thoughts of the courtiers, fight with the assassins, and always be on guard against those stupid forces Anyway, I don't want to stay here! Tomorrow I will abdicate and give you Xie Qian to be the ghost emperor

Xie Qian finally frowned and said, "does the emperor want to put him in a position of eternal doom?"

Then the emperor realized what he had said.

He was silent for a moment, but the thought of that moment in his heart was like this, which made the emperor ask himself again: does he really want to sit on the throne?

The emperor rubbed his eyebrows, and his voice could not hide his weariness. He sighed: "in the first few years when my father ascended the throne, he was also conscientious and accomplished a lot of things. But in the later appearance, Aiqing also saw it

Knowing the emperor's worries, Xie Qian only explained in a low voice: "since this seat is sitting, there is no chance to retreat. Your majesty does not have to worry or shrink from it. The minister will not allow the emperor to make mistakes again. "

The emperor sighed again: "I know."

The two of them fell into silence for a moment. Xie Qian had no words, but stood quietly beside the emperor and let the time flow away.After a long time, the emperor whispered: "I have a migraine some days, and I can't sleep at night. Every time I think about going to court, I can't help but feel restless. It's not a short time since the second prince died. I also want the eldest prince to recognize her as a mother and keep her under her knees. But in the end, the imperial concubine didn't give me this chance, so she died early... "

Fortunately, there are only Xie Qian and the emperor in the main hall. He can also reveal his weakness in front of outsiders.

"Sometimes I can't understand why some people want to take this seat? Power, property, beauty, which is not something that erodes people's heart? I don't want an election, I don't like luxury life, and I don't like the feeling of being above ten thousand people. Am I not fit for this seat

Xie Qian listened quietly for a while and said in a low voice, "don't forget the responsibility on your shoulders. Most of the time, the well-being of all the people in the world is only in your Majesty's mind. "

The emperor murmured: "if it was not for this so-called responsibility, I would have run away."

Looking at his tired side face, Xie Qian suddenly opened his mouth and said, "the emperor, do you still remember when we were children that we once said that we would have our own dreams in the future?"

The emperor laughed: "naturally I remember. The prince said that he would lead the soldiers to fight; I said that I would go boating on the lake and be a leisurely and complacent fisherman. But you didn't say anything at that time. What did Aiqing want to do

"What I want to do in my heart is to be a loyal and patriotic good minister to assist Mingjun and bring happiness to the people and the world," Xie Qian said

The emperor was surprised: "how old are you? Was that what you thought? Why don't you say that? "

Xie Qian showed an almost imperceptible smile, shook his head and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid of being laughed at, so I didn't say anything. But I did think so

The emperor was slightly stunned, then he was happy and laughed: "are you afraid of people's jokes? It's really possible! In the eyes of me and the prince's brother at that time, it seems that such an upright goal should only be the idea of stubborn and sour Confucians. "

The smile on his face was hard to fade for a long time, and he said in silence: "Ai Qing, you are serious. Assist Mingjun and bring happiness to the people and the world... "

Xie Qian said in a low voice, "well," looking into the emperor's eyes, he said seriously: "emperor, the education that ministers have received since childhood is loyalty to the monarch and patriotism, that is, they are concerned about the world. Originally, the Xie family was overthrown, and such a dream has been shelved. But now, when I enter the court again, I get the same thing from your Majesty's officials.... "

He stopped for a moment, his eyes showed firm meaning, said: "I will do my best to guard your Majesty's mountains, your Majesty's people, and your Majesty's boat and lake."

The emperor's eyes lit up a little, but he refused to admit that he was moved by Xie Qian's words. Instead, he joked: "what do you mean when you say that you can keep the river and the people well for me? This is your usual goal - to keep the boat and the lake well in my heart?"

Xie Qian didn't speak, but he looked more gentle and persistent than ever.

The emperor laughed, and his head, which had been aching for a long time, seemed to lighten a lot.

Now, his words are not easy to turn over the words, but they have no meaning.

After a long time, the emperor said, "if only I had a sister. If I married Aiqing, I could turn you into a royal man and tie you to my side."

His tone was light, and he had returned to his usual joking state. Xie Qian only listened casually and didn't care.

Speaking of Xie Qian's marriage, the emperor couldn't help feeling
