The emperor looked back at him and said, "little ruanzi, you say Who among my sons can inherit the great responsibility? "
Ruan Gonggong said in an urgent voice: "emperor, you are healthy and energetic. You are at the peak of your life. Why did you suddenly have the idea of passing on the throne?"
The emperor said with a smile, "I'm nearly 50 years old. How can I be at my peak? It's already very young. It's a move to set the country. It's not a spur of the moment. I think it's time to conform to the people's will and make chen'er the crown prince. "
"But But isn't the emperor always waiting to see his highness
"Yes, who said it wasn't?" The emperor grinned bitterly.
He looked up at the bright moonlight and said in a low voice: "before this year, I still hate him very much. He is stubborn, disobeys discipline, does not respect his father and brother, and is bold. I think he is cold-blooded, ruthless and headstrong!"
"But little ruanzi, situ Xi taught me a lesson that I will never forget."
"If it wasn't for chen'er's stubbornness, wouldn't the people of Chizhou be dead everywhere? If not for chen'er's bravery, how could the kingdom of Yanlong resist Dongping's 100000 troops with 3000 soldiers? If not for Chen er's cold-blooded ruthlessness, who dares to expose Dongping long princess's evil intention? "
Ruan Gonggong said: "emperor, what you need is a heart of benevolence. Is the character of the sixth highness not suitable?"
"No!" The emperor shook his head and said, "after tonight, I feel that he is the only one who belongs to me!"
Ruan's eyes widened in shock and he wanted to say something. He stammered, but he forced himself to swallow.
The emperor saw the way he wanted to talk and stop.
He whispered: "the eldest prince is mediocre and incompetent, the second prince is timid and cowardly, the third prince died young, the fourth Prince is weak and sick, the seventh Prince is disabled, the eighth Prince is a disordered concubine, and the ninth Prince is young, so they can't shoulder the heavy responsibility."
"The fifth Prince fan'er is a dragon and Phoenix among the people, and he attaches great importance to friendship. He once won my heart. But how can a soft hearted man sit on the throne? "
"As you can see, concubine Xuan is still protecting her. If they are in love with each other, it's a soft heart. How can they assume the position of great power?"
"Once upon a time, I always hoped that fan'er would come back. If he came back, I would not be subject to chen'er. But I've been through a lot of things recently, and I've also thought a lot about it. "
"I think what chen'er did was for my throne, and even thought that every time he resisted the imperial edict, he was trying to give me a bad impression. I think he was provoking, he was reckless, and he was doing whatever he wanted."
"But the matter of Chizhou, as Princess Xi said, shakes my soul. He is my son, he is my son!"
"When he was born, the sky was colorful. When he was young, he often accompanied me at my knees and gave me countless happy faces. He was my own son taught by me. He had me in his heart. Only in his heart, I was not the emperor, but a father. "
"If it had not been for him, I would have died long ago. I could have left the country in my hands. How can I face the ancestors? Chen son is desperate to save me, even not afraid of thousands of troops, just to save my father
"Now the disaster in Chizhou, if not for him, what is my virtue? I'm worried about his safety because of the plague in Chizhou. His repeated resistance made me sad. When I decided to give up my son. "
"Imperial concubine Xi was so keen that she split my heart and I was so confused that I began to think about why my son resisted the edict. The pure heart behind this made me think more and more The more heartache, the more I want to The more sad I am, the emperor, this is for me, for me. "
"Little ruanzi, you say that the throne Who else is there besides chen'er? He's not cold-blooded, he's just affectionate. "
"I've made up my mind. When they come back, I'll appoint chen'er as Prince and Princess Xi as Prince and Princess Rou as my wife. I'm taking her as my adopted daughter and pointing out a good husband for her. Other concubines, except Madam Yu, who have been in the palace for five years, will be dismissed by the emperor. I'll let him do it."
Ruan Gonggong was surprised.
He knelt down quickly and said, "emperor, this is absolutely not right. You can't blame the crown prince. If you want to help the crown prince abolish his concubine, how can you spend the rest of the people?"
"His highness Liu will be the prince in the future, and the emperor in the future. How can he serve the royal family with only one wife and one concubine? If the branches and leaves are adjusted to zero, who will stabilize the great rivers and mountains of the burning dragon? "
The emperor sneered: "are your children stable? Little ruanzi, you have been with me all your life. Do you know how I stepped on the throne? "
Ruan Gong shuddered.
The emperor turned to look at him and said, "with luxuriant branches and leaves, can we really stabilize the country? I can't count the number of my brothers and sisters, but when I step on the throne, how much help will they give me? "
"They only allowed my hands to be stained with blood. They had to cut off my hands and feet to strengthen the throne! I stepped on his bones and stepped on the throne, full of blood and tears. How can I have the heart to repeat history over and over again? "
Ruan Gonggong's eyes turned red and he burst into tears.
He knelt down and said nothing.
The emperor squatted down, looked at his face and said, "you and I were best friends. I believe in you most. No matter how many years you have wasted, you are still the young man in my heart.""Little ruanzi, you have never changed, have you?" The emperor's voice is low, percussion heartstrings.
Ruan Gonggong raised his eyes, and two lines of clear tears fell down. He stammered. He didn't want to say anything, but he knocked his head heavily on the ground.
"I'm sorry to the emperor. I didn't know what the emperor thought until today. I used to I once thought that the emperor's heart belonged to the fifth prince, so I followed his heart and thought about his highness, my servant I've been a slave for years... "
"Shh I know it. I know it all. Get up I don't blame you. I hope my father-in-law can understand my heart today. I won't be in trouble with chen'er in the future. "
"Yes, I do. I will abandon my prejudice and treat it respectfully." Ruan Gonggong choked.
The Emperor gave him a silk scarf and said with a smile, "look at you, you are in your forties, and you still have enough tears."
"Puff." Ruan's father-in-law was embarrassed to smile and wipe tears. Hua'er came forward and said, "emperor, it's cold at night. Please go back to the palace and have a rest."
"Well!" The emperor nodded, joking and leaving with Ruan Gonggong all the way.
The night is deep, but some people are destined to be sleepless.
Beigong Wanjia walked back and forth in the Xifang, kneeling in front of her was long Youfan who came back from the emperor.
Her eyes were full of anger, and her slender fingers kept shaking when she pointed to long Youfan.
"You You You're so angry with your mother. I'm really bored. How can you have a rebellious son in my palace? How can you unite with outsiders to bully my palace
