Greetings, Ninth Uncle

After Cheng Yuanjing finished speaking, the quiet needle drop in the attic was audible. The emperor's face was deep, and after a while, he frowned and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Children have been missing for 14 years. Suddenly they found it. Even if His Majesty testified, many people would still not believe it. If the children were alone and unconcerned, others would think it was a scam. Even part of the old officials I believe, seeing that I am 20 years old and have not yet gotten a wife, I am afraid that I can't let go. It is better to promulgate my will to return to the wedding together with the purpose of giving marriage.

Starting a family is always an inseparable whole. Even captives who have surrendered have been naturalized for many years. As long as they are not married, the authorities will not really be at ease. Only after getting married and having children, and having a family, can it really take root and be able to earn the court's trust.

Although Cheng Yuanjing is not a naturalized person, the Prince's position is not a joke. After missing for 14 years, a person suddenly appeared and said that he was a prince. Who can feel at ease? If the emperor knew the news behind the scenes, I am afraid he would not accept it easily.

Marrying a wife and starting a family is indeed a magic weapon to calm people's hearts and ease conflicts. Besides, Cheng Yuanjing had disappeared for many years. The imperial court quarreled several times for the heirs. After Cheng Yuanjing returned to the throne, he really had to give birth to a son to stabilize the hearts of the people.

The emperor had originally planned to wait for a month or two after he announced that he had found the prince. He would choose the concubine for the prince. However, in any case, the future prince concubine must be born innocent, noble first, father and brother as senior officials in the middle of the DPRK, benefiting An Anshe.

The Cheng family is obviously not qualified.

The Cheng family has merited all these years, and the emperor will of course award it, but this does not include making the Cheng family daughter a princess. The crown prince is concerned with Guoben, and is a fan of the world's women. The emperor has already conceived many times. How can such a sloppy decision be made?

The emperor calmed down and asked, "Is this what the Cheng family said? How dare they dare to beg for mercy?"

"No, I am such a good person." Cheng Yuanjing had stood up and stood under the emperor, saying, "Yichun Hou has been careful in his life and kept secrets secretly before his death. How could he have this courage. The other members of the Cheng family are completely ignorant, so they ca n’t talk about it.

Cheng Yuanjing said that he paused and said casually: "It's me who really asks for mercy."

The emperor frowned more tightly: "What?"

"Last night, a child accidentally fell into the moat. The eldest girl of the Cheng family also jumped into the ice cave to save people. I rescued her." Cheng Yuanjing said, "In this way, I have a life-saving grace for her. , So let her be the prince, just in response to the dripping grace Yongquan. "

The emperor was clear first, then angered. No wonder Cheng Yuanjing did not come last night. It turned out that he jumped into the river to save people. Many signs of today can also be matched. However, what kind of things do those dripping graces report afterwards?

The emperor said: "Your prince concubine selection is very important, don't rush. When you return to the palace, I will decide to choose the concubine for you, and when the ladies and ladies gather, you can choose slowly."

"I know. I have been in Beijing for many years, and I know what women are in the city." Cheng Yuanjing said, "Just because I have already picked it, I don't have to go all out, save the labor and the people, and save your majesty."

The anger in the emperor's heart grew stronger and stronger, and dissatisfaction had gradually surfaced. The emperor reluctantly restrained himself and said, "After all, you and her bear the position of uncles and nephews. After the announcement, how do you serve the world?"

"Those are all fake." Cheng Yuanjing said, "not to mention, give me and marry her, can it just prove that I am not Cheng's family?"

"You!" The emperor was very angry. "Uncle married niece, do you think this reputation is good?"

"She's not, why not?"

The emperor was so angry that he couldn't sit still anymore, got up directly from the seat and scolded: "Absurd!"

The emperor was able to see it, although Cheng Yuanjing had no contact with the Cheng family, but after all these years, he left on the Cheng family and came to see the big girl of their family. However, there are so many women in the world, why bother for the reputation of a woman, and even block the road in the future.

The emperor originally planned to let Cheng Yuanjing leave the capital, and after a period of time disappeared, he returned as Li Chengjing. It was said to the outside world that the secret horse sent by the emperor that year had been searching for many years, and finally found the prince in the people, and this person Cheng Yuanjing naturally died forever.

A person's looks are not deceiving. When Li Chengjing returns, when he sees him, someone must be able to guess what is going on. But there are some things that can be ignored, but there is no need to announce the world. After all, the people neither see the prince nor know the ninth son of the Cheng family. That being the case, why not find an argument that everyone has a face.

The emperor will compensate the Cheng family in the future, but this must be a long time from now. In the clear, the prince must have nothing to do with the Cheng family. Once Cheng Yuanjing married the Cheng girl, he would be bound to the Cheng family forever. No matter how powerful the emperor is, he can't block everyone's mouth. Slowly, everyone will always find that the prince and the uncle Cheng Jiaji seem to be exactly the same.

By that time, the emperor's so-called argument that he had found the lost prince from the people could not stand.

This is naturally unwilling to see the emperor. The emperor took a deep breath, restrained his anger and sat down again. Twenty years of emperor, his forbearing kung fu is best known. The emperor's voice was irritated and asked: "If you insist on marrying Cheng's daughter, what will happen to your identity? You also know that this kind of thing can't be concealed, and someone will always find you to be Cheng Yuanjing."

Cheng Yuanjing lowered his eyebrows and slowly said: "If you can't hide it, then you won't."

The emperor frowned: "What are you talking about?"

"I am Cheng Yuanjing. Everyone in the dynasty knew all about it. In that case, why should they deceive themselves and let everyone accompany me to act? His Majesty once saw Yuan Jing at Xiangji Temple, and he became suspicious that Cheng Yuanjing was the missing prince. It ’s okay. I ’m going directly to Cheng Yuanjing, is it more convincing than rearranging a set of traces? "

The emperor and Cheng Yuanjing always knew each other. The disappearance of the so-called prince has always been a blind eye. But now that the Yang family has not fallen, they absolutely cannot admit that they have been acting in the past 14 years.

The best way is to create an accident by chance. The emperor met a man by chance at Xiangji Temple. There was a blood relationship between father and son. The emperor was suspicious. After sending someone to investigate, he found that this young man was the lost son.

This is the reason why Cheng Yuanjing and the emperor put them on the bright side. In the future, the Yangs and courtiers would turn over and check, and they could only find it here. After that, there were some differences between the emperor and Cheng Yuanjing.

The emperor felt that the crown prince had grown up in the capital and had been staying under the eyes of Yang Fucheng and Empress Dowager all these years. It was too provocative, so the emperor wanted to abandon the identity of "Cheng Yuan Jing" and change the drama code for the prince. The Yang family can surely find that the prince is Cheng Yuanjing, but the emperor Jinkouyuyan said that the emperor said that even if the civil and military officials knew it well, they had to cooperate with the emperor in acting.

In this way, everyone can pass the scene decently.

But Cheng Yuanjing didn't think so. He has already given up his identity once, and then gave up his growth experience in Beijing. He has a career resume of being a scholar and returned to the East Palace as a prince who is longer than the people and has no expertise. Who will serve him under the world? Only a few people know the truth, and the people who live outside the capital are the foundation of his standing.

Their positions are not exactly the same.

The emperor ascended the throne with the unloved King Kang. If let the Empress Yang and Yang Fucheng know that they have been looking for people who have lived in Beijing for many years, and they have also passed the exam under their eyelids, this is definitely a slap in the face of the Yang family. provocative. The emperor did not want to give birth to another branch, so he thought of the wronged Cheng Yuanjing and the face of the Yang family.

However, from the perspective of Cheng Yuanjing, giving the Yang family a face, it is that he is weak against the Yang family. Before a battle is played, it shows weakness, what is the qualification for the formation.

Cheng Yuanjing has not always agreed with the emperor's plan, but he didn't need to face the emperor in the first place. Compared with the invisible face, of course, the actual benefits are more cost-effective. He could follow the emperor, and the emperor knew that he would owe money, and he would definitely compensate him later.

If it were not Cheng Yujin, Cheng Yuanjing went out to "visit friends" this winter, and he would not come back again.

It was because he thought of her being alone in the Hou House for the holidays, and then rushed back abruptly. This person Cheng Yuanjing naturally did not "die".

He spends a lot of pressure on staying in Beijing for an extra day, and the last festival is already the deadline. After Shangyuan, he had to leave the capital and change his face. But now, Cheng Yuanjing has changed his mind.

I had planned for a long time, and I felt refreshed at the moment when the decision was really made, as if the invisible shackles were suddenly released. Cheng Yuanjing looked down slightly, not directly looking at the emperor. This is the rule of the holy face. Although Cheng Yuanjing and the emperor are father and son, before that, they have to be kings.

Cheng Yuanjing said: "Your Majesty, I would like to return as Cheng Yuanjing and beg to marry Cheng's parents and daughters to prove that I am not the blood of the Cheng family."

The emperor looked at Cheng Yuanjing, but did not speak for a long time. His hunch was indeed correct, none of this one was satisfactory.

The emperor Shen Sheng asked: "You have made up your mind?"

"Yes."

"Do you know how much help you give up, and how much trouble you have inflated yourself?"

"I know." Cheng Yuanjing looked down, and under the cover of his eyes, others could not see the expression in his eyes. Cheng Yuanjing did n’t know what he thought of, and the coldness of his body was slightly diluted, revealing a little softness: "My wife will die with me in the same life, and I will enter the same cave with me in the future. For such a long time, if the person next to the pillow is not the one who can actually die, what is the point? "

The emperor was originally suppressing the fire. Hearing these words, his expression suddenly startled.

Born in the same place, the same point was spoken when Zhong was still there. He was just an unfavorable king of Kang at that time, and even the enclave could not be said to be vast. Zhong was born in Beijing and grew up in Beijing. Once he became a fan, he basically had no chance of returning.

Her parents and relatives are all in Beijing. Although leaving with the emperor is life and death, it is as good as death. I am afraid that there will be no chance to meet her parents in this life. But the Zhongs accompanied him away from home, and accompanied him to leave the capital city of gold and jade, without complaints from beginning to end

.

When the Kang Wang Mansion was closed on the ground, Zhong's face looked forward to planning their future, what to do in the Kang Wang Mansion's yard, what the pavilion did, the emperor also had some thoughts of life.

But later, the blueprint of Zhong's vision was not realized, including the courtyard she left to her eldest daughter, and it would never come in handy.

Because they have no eldest daughter.

She accompanied him through the lowest point, but died on the eve of hard work.

The emperor clearly blamed his eldest son for mischief, and it was clearly his parents' orders that he should choose a princess who was suitable in every way. But when thinking of the premature death of his wife, Chung, the emperor choked so much.

The emperor thought for a long time, and finally only sighed. Well, after all, the emperor was sorry for their mother and son. If the Queen is still the Chung family, Prince Li Chengjing is in a stable position, and he can naturally marry whoever he wants.

The emperor finally sighed long, "You think about it?"

Cheng Yuanjing lowered his head, his voice firm: "Yes."

"You are older, and you have your own ideas about everything. I can't take care of these things anymore. Well, since you insist, do it yourself."

Cheng Yuanjing knelt down and prayed: "Your Majesty."

The emperor seemed to want to say something, and at this time, the **** stood outside the door, reminding me carefully: "Long live, the queen's mother has asked upstairs."

The emperor looked away in an instant, and said loudly: "I know, I will step down."

"promise."

Although the emperor said so, he actually stood up and wanted to go out. He took two steps, remembering that his eldest son was still here, and hesitated a little.

As early as when the **** came, Cheng Yuanjing had already stood up and stood aside. Realizing that the emperor had stopped, Cheng Yuanjing was not surprised, and said, "Your Majesty Xie's grace, your courtier sent His Majesty."

The emperor wanted to say something, but in the end he couldn't say it. Cheng Yuanjing's words and sentences are all respectful and polite, but since he started, he has always claimed to be a minister and never called a "father".
