Chapter 304 Paving the way for her
The death of the prince is not a big impact. After all, the prince has been ill for many years and energy consumption is surprising enough to this day.
"If it weren't for the protection of King Xuan, I would have died that year."
"Wait, now the King of Wei is dead in Yizhou, the prince also dies of illness, and King Xuan has also returned to the capital from his fief…"
The ministers discussed a few words in private, and then they gradually felt that something might happen in the capital.
And those smart and ambitious are already discussing who will fall into the position of the prince in the future.
"Is there any choice? Among the young and powerful princes, the only one is King Xuan!"
"Not necessarily, isn't there still a seventh prince?"
"The Seventh Prince is still young..."
“It’s sometimes good to be young.”
For a moment, the ministers' thoughts became alive.
But even though he died, He Songning took over the imperial edict to go to Xuanzhou to deal with the snow disaster.
The death of the prince is an opportunity for others to change the family.
Yu He Songning said that it was more than just a thorn, it was simply a knife that stabbed straight into his chest.
After the court meeting, he did not leave the palace immediately.
Now that bone steam disease has completely disappeared, Emperor De of Liang allowed him to enter and exit freely.
It's probably a great honor.
He Songning pulled the corner of his mouth stiffly and walked straight towards Xue Qingyin's current residence.
Of course Xue Qingyin doesn't live with the Fourth Princess, the Fourth Princess is just a name.
She is in Penglai Palace.
Penglai Hall is next to Zichen Hall, which is a place for daily discussion, and is next to the emperor's bedroom.
The other hall and the main hall were surrounded in this way, so they firmly surrounded Xue Qingyin here.
As He Songning walked in, he couldn't help but think that the emperor's love for Xue Qingyin was really beyond people's expectations.
"Young Master Xue." The palace maid came forward and stopped him.
He Songning asked: "Is Qingyin unwilling to see me?"
The palace servant hesitated and said, "Your Majesty is in it."
He Songning was stunned. If he hadn't seen the emperor clearly before, he knew that he was indeed in love with King Xuan's biological mother, otherwise he would not have been troubled by King Xuan's raising tigers until now... He would have doubted whether the emperor had any other thoughts about Xue Qingyin.
It's right.
"Then I'll wait outside." He Songning said.
And inside the hall gate.
Xue Qingyin sat up, and Emperor Liang De stuffed a pillow behind her waist and said, "This will make you feel more comfortable."
Xue Qingyin pressed against the pillow and looked up and said, "Your Majesty even knows this?"
Emperor De Liang was silent for a moment and said, "I have taken care of King Xuan's mother."
Xue Qingyin stopped responding.
Emperor De of Liang also knew that she was not easy to answer, so he turned to the death of the prince.
"Oh, I'm dead?" Xue Qingyin curled her lips.
"Listen, what's your tone? Then the prince is the one who told others to listen to it, what would it look like?" Emperor Liang De scolded her.
Xue Qingyin said: "I don't like him. Does anyone in the palace like him? He is dead right now. Don't Your Majesty think so?"
Xue Qingyin sighed: "If everyone can be more straightforward, wouldn't it be easier to live in this world?"
Emperor De of Liang did not scold her now, but was silent again, and said: "I have the power of life and death in my hands and the power to dominate the country, so I can no longer have the right to speak out."
"Others won't think you are sincere because of your frankness, they will only think you are easy to grasp."
"Even the book is written: For the way of generals, we should first cure our hearts. Mountains of Tai collapse in front of us and their colors remain unchanged, and deer rises on the left but their eyes do not instantly."
"The way to be a king is that the way is invisible and is used to know the king; if you have nothing to do, you can see flaws in secret."
Emperor Liang De's voice changed and asked, "Can King Xuan treat you frankly?"
Xue Qingyin deliberately paused, as if she was thinking about it.
Then she said, "I don't know."
Emperor Liang De smiled and said, "I can't help myself in everything. But I can allow you to be so frank in front of me."
This is exactly what she likes.
She does not conceal her desires and likes and dislikes, and will not deliberately show off her tactfully to gain what she wants.
Besides, she didn't want much.
Xue Qingyin did not follow Emperor Liang De's words and asked, "Did Your Majesty visit me just to tell me about the death of the prince?"
Emperor De of Liang slowly lowered his smile on his face: "The night before the prince died, King Xuan went to see him."
“So what?”
"Don't defend King Xuan?"
"What did I say really change Your Majesty's mind? Your Majesty believes in him, even if you believe in him. If you don't believe in him, it will be useless for me to say ten thousand words."
"You are really..."
“It’s getting boring?”
Emperor De of Liang shook his head and asked straight to the point: "How many soldiers and generals have you brought from Yizhou this time when you return to Beijing?"
Xue Qingyin said in surprise: "The documents reported to Beijing at that time were very clearly written, so she only led 200 guards according to the rules..."
"Qingyin, do you know what I am asking. If it is just a few words on paper, why should I ask you?"
"Then Your Majesty shouldn't ask me, Your Majesty said it before. The way to be a king is invisible, but it is used to know the king; if there is nothing to do, you can see flaws in secret... If King Xuan has great ambitions,
How could I see through his thoughts and plans?"
Emperor Liang De smiled: "Use my words to block me, right?"
Xue Qingyin sighed: "I just... I don't know much about what others love me, and whether what I see is true."
Emperor De of Liang seemed to have empathy, so he did not ask this question again.
He said, "I don't know what King Xuan has prepared. Yizhou is too far away..." He sighed lightly: "I really shouldn't have allowed you to go to Yizhou at the beginning."
"But Yizhou wants to resist foreign enemies, and it costs a lot of money to raise the army. Qiao Teng must be unwilling to give up power for many years in Yizhou. There are also many bandits here... Didn't Your Majesty nod just because he thought about this?
"Xue Qingyin asked lazily.
"You can see everything clearly." There was no surprise on Emperor Liang De's face.
He paused and said, "It seems that King Xuan understands it too."
"But it's hard to say what King Xuan thinks."
"Um?"
"Understand that is one thing, but what you think is another. It's like a person who falls in love with another person without hesitation. Even if the other person refuses to look back, he will not change his love in his heart because of this.
.” Xue Qingyin made a metaphor that was very easy to understand for Emperor De of Liang.
Emperor Liang De's eyes flashed: "What do you mean is that even if King Xuan understands, he still loves me as his father in his heart?"
Xue Qingyin said to him: "I don't know, I said it casually."
Emperor De of Liang laughed: "Look at you, you can't speak for King Xuan after you say that, why can't you hold it in the end?"
Xue Qingyin held her face and didn't speak.
She thought to herself, I really want to be so ruthless to King Xuan, and I don’t ask a word. Maybe you still think that I am too ruthless and cannot be kept.
Emperor Liang De raised his hand and poured himself a cup of tea, saying, "The prince has been vomiting blood for the past six months..."
Xue Qingyin thought about it, oh, yes, it seems that since she went to see the prince, the prince began his journey of vomiting blood.
"It is not easy to survive until today." Emperor Liang De said.
This means that you will not be involved in it and King Xuan.
Xue Qingyin is sure now.
Her words did work... Compared to King Xuan, Emperor De of Liang now wants to see clearly whether He Songning is a human or a ghost.
If He Songning controls everything, kills people with a knife, and finally ascends the throne... For an emperor like Emperor Liang De, who has a strong desire to control, it would be a great shame!
"It's getting late, it's time to pass the meal." Emperor De of Liang paused and said, "Come here, Concubine Dong Xian, and the Seventh Prince will accompany you."
Xue Qingyin was a little surprised.
Say they are here?
Emperor Liang De looked at Xue Qingyin and asked back, "You have helped Concubine Dong Xian, have you? The Seventh Prince also has a very good impression of you."
Xue Qingyin was stunned. Is this... testing me?
No, not right.
The emperor's attitude these days has been showing off his cards with her. There is no need for him to test her again.
Xue Qingyin suddenly reacted...
This won't be...
Are you consolidating the relationship between Concubine Dong Xian and the Seventh Prince for her?
