Chapter 728: Long Live My Emperor
In the Kunning Palace.
At this moment, Zhu Di is already dressed up, but he is not in a hurry to see the princes and relatives, he is the Son of Heaven and a birthday star, so he naturally deserves those people outside waiting for him, and there will be no complaints.
Queen Xu is combing her hair at the moment, looking at herself in the bronze mirror, she is getting old, there are a few more fish lines in the corners of her eyes, Xu can't help but sigh, when she wears the phoenix crown, she waves her hand, the palace ladies retreat, and only Zhu Di and Xu are left in the palace.
Xu said slowly: "Your Majesty, don't you go and see it first?" ”
Zhu Di sat on the brocade pier, eating tea with his hand on the table, shook his head and said: "What's there to see, they all say that birthday is a happy event, I don't see it, I am a year old again, and I am about to die, what is a long life of a hundred years old, it is pure nonsense, according to me, I am a little tired when I listen to those birthday words, they have nothing else but these empty words." It's better to sit here for a while. ”
Xu couldn't help sighing: "It's a pity that Gao Xu can't come, if all three sons come, my mood will be better." Majesty ...... "Xu wanted to speak and stopped, this once very strong woman, at this moment touched the weakness of her heart, instantly became soft, she glanced at her husband, and then continued: "Your Majesty, in fact, there is a saying, the concubine has been holding it in her stomach, I don't know when to say it, on weekdays, Majesty is in charge of national affairs, the concubine said, I am afraid that it will add a burden to Your Majesty, today is Your Majesty's birthday, let alone add any troubles to Your Majesty, just don't say it, it is inevitable that I feel a little uncomfortable." ”
Zhu Di said solemnly: "You say, I'm listening." ”
Xu's lips pursed. said: "I heard that the prince and King Zhao have not been on good terms recently, is there such a thing?" Your Majesty, don't shake your head in a hurry, in fact, although the concubine has lived in the palace for a long time. But the things outside, I know a little bit about it, according to the concubines, there is such a thing, the reason why it is not harmonious, I am afraid that King Zhao will repeat the mistakes of the King of Han, and His Majesty will regard him as the King of Han. entrusted him with the heavy task, Gao Chi, a child, who was gentle on the surface. In fact, he is also a strong person, he is the prince and the prince after all, and he sees that his brother is deeply trusted. What is the taste in my heart. As for Gao Sui. He's actually an idle man, but His Majesty values him so much, why doesn't he think about it? People, what they are most afraid of is to have thoughts of non-separation, Zhu Gaoxu back then, Zhu Gaosui now, in fact, they don't have to compete with their brothers for a day. It's just that His Majesty gave them hope, and there was hope. And they jumped at it. I don't know what His Majesty thinks, what the concubine said, yes or no. ”
"Your Majesty has its own arrangements, this layer, I'm afraid I've already thought of it, the reason why this is so, I'm afraid I also have my own hardships, the family affairs of the heavenly family are state affairs, how can the concubines not understand these truths? Therefore, the concubines are really afraid of interfering in politics. But if you don't say it, you can't do it, the concubine is the wife of His Majesty, and she is the mother of the children, and if she doesn't say something clearly, she always feels uncomfortable. Therefore, if His Majesty is really for Gao Sui's good, he should not let him stay in Beijing, nor should he be given a non-dividing thought, he should be ordered to return to Guangzhou immediately to become a vassal and let him be his virtuous king, and the prince is here, the big stone in his heart can land, and he, the prince, can do it freely, so that he can share his worries for His Majesty, right? After all, the children are older, each has their own destiny, the most important thing in the past dynasties is nothing more than the word duty, the prince keeps his duty, and the vassal king keeps the duty of the vassal king, so that there will be no chaos, and the mistakes of the Han king will not be repeated. ”
"The concubine just wants His Majesty to think about it again, and now on this birthday, let His Majesty think about it, Your Majesty, we are all old, how many years can we have in this life? When the end of the future is approaching, don't you expect your children and grandchildren to be safe? After all, the concubine is a woman who doesn't understand anything, these words come from the bottom of her heart, but they may not be reasonable, right and wrong, and you have to ask Your Majesty to judge. ”
After Xu said, he got up and went to pour tea for Zhu Di in person.
Zhu Di frowned and said nothing.
In fact, the two have been husband and wife for so many years, and their respective thoughts are tacit, but Xu's words are also very reasonable. Zhu Di couldn't help but hesitate at this time, but he didn't agree immediately, but just smiled and said: "Oh, it seems that you are in a hurry to catch Gao Sui to Guangdong, he stayed in Beijing, and you are so unhappy?" ”
He said this in his mouth, but he knew what was going on in his heart, and finally he didn't want to talk about it, so he got up and said, "I went to the warm pavilion to take a look, this birthday banquet is still early, and I want to get drunk with Wei Guogong today." ”
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
The situation in the warm pavilion is different.
After the greetings, everyone was silent, each looked silent, even Xu Huizu, the Duke of Wei, did not speak at this time, although he was the uncle of the two princes, but he saw the affairs of the court very clearly, and now the princes are fighting so fiercely, the Xu family, there is really no need to get involved, because no matter who sits in this world, the Xu family is the uncle of the country, and the grace is undiminished, but once he mixes and enters such a thing, if he wins, the work of the dragon is just the icing on the cake, and if he loses, he will not be jealous of the new king. With the experience of the Battle of Jingyan, the Xu family appeared to be much more cautious.
Zhu Gaochi is still the same calm demeanor, reluctant to smile, occasionally cough a few words, move his fat body, he tries his best to have some demeanor, but his appearance and figure betray him deeply, which always makes people feel a little ridiculous.
Zhu Gaosui was very different, he looked left and right, full of humor, but he didn't say anything, just occasionally came to Hao Fenglou's side and laughed with Hao Fenglou in a low voice.
Hao Fenglou has a match or not, and he has long been accustomed to the embarrassing atmosphere in this pavilion, although the royal relatives and relatives present here are all smiling on the surface, but they all have their own calculations, in fact, how can they be, even if they are themselves, how can they not?
At this time, someone finally came to relieve the siege, and someone outside sang loudly: "Your Majesty has arrived." ”
So everyone got up one after another, and when Zhu Di came in with his hands behind his back, they bowed down together and said, "Long live my emperor, long live without borders!" ”
Zhu Di just glanced at them, and immediately laughed, as a birthday star, his face was full of red light, and he said: "No need to be polite, no need to be polite, this day is long, if it is three steps and one kowtow, my birthday will not look good." ”
