The emperor looked at his son and asked for a long time: "Don't you regret it?"
The prince shook his head, "Aye, I know that I am a money tree and a cornucopia in the eyes of many people. Those people look at me... Even the most upright ministers will involuntarily want to take advantage of me. Maybe they will use the idea of serving the country and the people.
Drive yourself from the head, but use is use.”
The emperor shook his head helplessly, "This is fate."
"Yes. I know this is an inevitable fate. From the day I became the crown prince, it has been difficult for me to find someone with whom I can get along with a normal heart."
"But after that girl knew that you were the prince, her normal mind naturally disappeared. What would a girl from an ordinary family do when she faced the prince of the Tang Dynasty? She was excited and expected..."
The emperor mercilessly revealed the darkness of human nature.
"But Aye, everyone does this!"
The emperor was startled and said, "Yes, everyone is like this."
People are self-interested, and the emperor is not exempt from this.
"But after all, she and I had a period of getting along with each other without any scheming. In my heart, these few years are a piece of pure land in my heart. No matter what happens in the future, at least, there is still that piece of pure land...
...When the Pure Land exists, there will be a trace of innocence left in my heart...At least, it will not let me sink into the darkness of human nature."
The emperor was silent for a long time, and finally patted the prince on the shoulder and sighed: "Your mother-in-law is definitely not satisfied. I have to take the blame for this matter. However, it is only natural that I take the blame for my son."
The emperor went to the queen.
"What?"
The queen was stunned, "A woman from an ordinary family?"
"right."
The emperor sat down and said, "A Liang likes that woman."
"But..." the queen grabbed the book in her hand, "That woman must have never read a book!"
"Yes, I haven't read it, but it's not too late."
"Without reading and knowledge, how can she help Zuo Aliang?"
"Do you think A Liang needs a queen like Empress Wu?"
"But... how can a woman from an ordinary family control the harem?"
The harem is very troublesome... all kinds of women will do anything to compete for the emperor's pitiful rain and dew. If the queen is incompetent and mediocre, she will have great fun.
"The harem is very troublesome, but you should know that the root of all troubles lies in the emperor." The emperor summed up succinctly: "The emperor is the root of trouble."
The queen had a serious face, and the emperor sighed, walked over and sat down side by side, "A Liang is a good boy. He has never caused us any trouble since he was a child. He has been with that woman for several years, and both of them were still good friends at that time.
That's naive.
He was in a whirlpool of power, and that whirlpool was dirty, so that woman was his source of fresh water.
Do you understand?
A Liang is a ship, and this ship needs a harbor to berth in. This harbor does not have to be luxurious, but it must allow the ship to berth safely."
The emperor held the queen's hand and said, "You are my harbor."
And Wang Qin is obviously the harbor that A Liang is looking for for himself.
The queen leaned weakly on his shoulder, "I'm always worried..."
"Your worries are of no use. Instead of worrying about this, you should think about how to teach that woman how to manage the harem."
"What if she can't?"
"Then, our responsibilities have been fulfilled, and the rest is A Liang's own business. He will take care of his woman. If anything happens in the harem, he will take care of it himself! That's it!"
"But I just thought about it, and I thought of Liang smiling at me as a baby."
"Back then... Yang Lue took me south, and he thought I was just that stupid."
The queen chuckled.
"Don't worry, I know your concerns, but isn't the most rare thing in this world that money can't buy me willingly?"
"How's that family?"
"The male master is a little greedy. The greed of the common people is common. In a family where the man has no future, the woman will be aggressive. Wang Qin has worked with her mother since she was a child and has learned a lot. Therefore, I am not worried that she will not be able to control her in the future.
As for the harem, I'm just worried that she's too strict. But that's A Liang's business, isn't it?"
Thinking of the days when the couple was sour and jealous, the emperor smiled unkindly.
"I actually don't like the rules of our ancestors, but I understand the good intentions of our ancestors when they left these rules. I said that the good days of my maternal relatives should come to an end. That woman's natal family will not become a disaster."
The queen's eyes were red, and the emperor sighed and put his arms around her waist, which was no longer slender, and said: "If you love A-liang, then you should let go. A-Ning, the child is ours, but after all, it is theirs. Can you control it?"
They have their own way to go, and what we can do is to support them and give them a ride when they are young. When they become strong and have their own opinions, the only thing we can do is
……bless."
…
The life of the Wang family remains the same.
When he got up in the morning, Guo Xiu shouted filial piety at the top of his voice, urging Wang Fu who was occupying the latrine to come out quickly. He also urged his son to get up quickly.
The two sons were worried and had an argument early in the morning, so Guo Xiu rushed them to wash themselves off with a broom.
"Qin'er, Qin'er is playing."
"Auntie, I'm up."
Wang Qin opened the door and walked out.
Taking advantage of the morning light, he glanced at his daughter who looked calm. Guo Xiu put away his fierce expression and forced out a bright smile, "My daughter can even be a queen, but we don't care about it. I'll find a place for you later."
son-in-law."
Wang Qin remained silent, lowered her head and went to the kitchen to help.
After breakfast, Guo Xiu took Wang Qin to the snack shop and told Wang Fu to concentrate on working with his two sons at home.
Knock knock knock!
Before I even went out, there was a knock on the door.
"Who is this so early in the morning?"
Wang Fu said dissatisfied: "Boss, go and open the door."
"Aye, my stomach hurts." Mr. Wang ran to the toilet.
"Lazy cows, lazy horses pee a lot!" Wang Fudu muttered, but he couldn't bear to ask the youngest son and went to open the door himself.
The door opened, and a smiling man stood outside, "But the Wang family?"
"Exactly, you are..." Wang Fu felt that there was an aura about the man that made him want to bow his head, and he even had trouble speaking.
The man cupped his hands and said, "Li Xuan, I have met Wang Langjun."
"Li Langjun!" Wang Fu said with a smile, "I don't know what's wrong?"
"I came here for the sake of my children."
The man looked past Wang Fu, looked at Guo Xiu and Wang Qin in the yard, and nodded slightly.
"Li Xuan..." There are countless gossips in the dim sum shop, among which the emperor's gossip is the most common.
The emperor's experience has been written into countless stories by novelists, and his life experience is basically the same.
——Before Emperor Xiaojing was killed by poison, he was sent away as an infant. He changed his surname to Yang and was called Yang Xuan. Later, when the emperor had a son in northern Xinjiang, he returned to his original surname of Li and was called Li Xuan.
This matter is almost universally known in Chang'an.
Guo Xiu was trembling, "Husband..."
Wang Fu, who was still a little lost in the lake early in the morning, was shocked and said, "You are..."
"My son has caused trouble for your family." The emperor smiled.
"His Majesty?!"
"No, it's an old father who's here today."
The emperor smiled and said: "Can you go in and ask for a cup of tea?"
Wang Fu turned sideways stiffly, "Please."
The emperor came in, walked up to Wang Qin first, and said, "That boy didn't mean to hide anything... To be honest, most of the time he went out of the palace in the past few years, he went to a snack shop, but I have never eaten a piece of snacks."
Wang Qin Fu Shen said, "I learned from my grandmother... I will cook it for you later."
My daughter, why are you so smart?
At this moment, Guo Xiu just wanted to brag about her daughter's magical response.
It is only natural for a daughter-in-law to make snacks to honor her father-in-law!
But Guo Xiu suppressed this idea in her heart.
The emperor came in person, probably because he wanted to settle the matter!
The couple welcomed the emperor in, and Wang Laoer went out to take a look, then turned back and shouted: "Mom, there are some big men outside."
"Shut up and go back to the house!" Guo Xiu scolded.
The emperor smiled, sat down, looked at the decoration in the room, and said: "When I was in the countryside of Yuanzhou, it was worse than this."
The emperor spent more than ten years in such an environment.
"Your Majesty, have tea." Wang Qin went to make tea, but the tea looked a little bad.
The emperor nodded, took a sip, and said to Wang Fu: "The tea is not very good, but you have to use your heart."
Wang Fu smiled apologetically and said, "Qin'er has been smart since she was a child."
"It's filial piety!" Guo Xiu gave Wang Fu a slap in the face and took over the 'negotiation'
"My son has been very well-behaved since he was a child, and he has never let mother-in-law worry about him. Just because the family has a big business, his mother-in-law and I have been very strict with him since he was a child. But this kid, Ah Liang, knows the general situation and is very busy every day.
He refused to complain even when he was in contact with me. I went to Shu a while ago and left my belongings to him to take care of. When I came back, I saw that he was in good order..."
This is an introduction to the basic situation of my son.
"Qin'er's needlework was taught by Nu, and it's better than Nu's."
"A-Liang has many people around him, but he keeps himself clean."
The emperor vaguely stated the merits of his son's lack of lewdness.
"Qin'er is good at cooking and making snacks." Compared with A Liang who was in charge of the world, Wang Qin's little expertise was crushed. But Guo Xiu still persisted with the stubbornness of an old mother.
"That's good."
The emperor's words made Wang Fu's heart beat wildly.
It won't be...
The emperor waved Wang Qin over and asked, "Do you like that boy of mine?"
Say it quickly!
Wang Fu wished he could shout out loudly on behalf of his daughter: I like it!
Wang Qin lowered his head and nodded slightly.
Both hands were still holding the cuffs.
The emperor smiled and said: "I have always been unwilling to take care of my child too much, so I turned a blind eye to him while he was busy working in Lin's pastry shop these years. However, the needlework you made for him is quite good..."
Wang Qin's face suddenly turned red.
The emperor asked: "So, are you willing to be with him...always?"
Wang Qin lowered his head and said nothing.
Daughter!
Ancestors!
Wang Fu clenched his fists and his face turned red.
The emperor smiled.
Guo Xiu lowered his head, his mind going blank.
The emperor actually came... to talk about marriage?
Not a concubine?
My Qin'er can actually become...a crown princess?
Wang Qin looked up and nodded seriously.
"I do."
The emperor took out a jade pendant and handed it to Wang Qin. He stood up and said, "I'm going to the west for a while. Zhuo Jing will take over the matter later. I'll take my leave."
The emperor walked out of Wang's house, and Guo Xiu's low voice came from behind him.
