Chapter 884 Conversation
Xiao Changyao couldn't help but look up at his elder brother. In fact, since he was a child, he was not close to the eldest brother, but now that his father is gone, they are all people with awkward identities. Perhaps it is because of the **** in their blood. Got closer.
Xiao Changyao knew that his brother was doing it for his own good, so he couldn't help shouting "Brother Huang!"
Xiao Changyuan looked ahead, surrounded by bustling people, he said in a low voice, "I'll take you to the gate of the palace, let's talk."
This may be the last time they talk heart to heart.
"A-Xun is a ruthless person, and he is also a person who attaches great importance to feelings. You have also seen the third and fourth brothers, and now you can only be regarded as living. Among the brothers, A-Xun is the best for you. Of course, if you With that kind of thought in mind, I didn’t say these words.”
What kind of thoughts? Naturally, it is the heart of seizing the heir.
Xiao Changyao sighed and said, "Brother, don't say such a thing, I never thought of it like this. You also know the identity of my mother-in-law. My mother-in-law told me about Emperor Zhaoyang since I was a child. I just thought of the past. The imperial grandmother is not good to us, she only protects Ah Xun."
"What does this have to do with Ah Xun? This is a matter between the emperor's grandmother and the emperor's uncle. Don't mention the grievances and grievances of the previous generation in the future. You should know that the emperor's grandmother is kind to Ah Xun , how did it all come here?"
"I see, big brother, third brother and fourth brother..."
Xiao Changyuan cut off his words, "If the third and fourth younger brothers ascend the throne today, I'm afraid you and I will have no chance to survive. This is already the best ending."
Xiao Changyao stopped talking, but he was thinking about what Tong An had said to him, "The Third Highness and Fourth Highness were sent back suddenly, but they didn't go back to the Imperial Prison. Five taels of silver, peeping through the crack of the door, he is thinner and not in good spirits, but he is still alive after all."
Xiao Changyao didn't dare to think too much about it, anyone with a discerning eye would know why Lu Yan released the two from the imperial prison. The third and fourth brothers were not fools either, they knew that if they did anything to the emperor, it would be their turn next, and they dared not let the emperor die.
Lu Yan saw that there was nothing to do, and later, Xie Zhiwei became pregnant, Xiao Xun couldn't catch up for a while, and his father died immediately, so Lu Yan had to send the two out of the palace again and continue to be imprisoned.
While in a trance, the two of them arrived at the gate of Zuoye Gate. Now Donghua Gate can enter, but the two of them dare not pass.
"I'll just send you here. I have too many things to do, so I won't accompany you in." Xiao Changyuan glanced at the overlapping palaces, and no one could see the look in his eyes, "Second brother, the empress is a kind and loving woman. For those of you who have second siblings, you should supervise the river affairs well, and in the future... it will always get better and better."
"Brother, I know, you really don't plan to go back to the capital again?"
Xiao Changyuan said, "No one can be sure about what will happen in the future. In short, if you remember today's words, even if there is no Xun, the throne may not be your turn. The blood of the descendants of the Xiao family is indispensable for a piece of wealth."
After Xiao Changyao nodded solemnly, Xiao Changyuan reined in his horse and turned around to leave.
The guard behind Xiao Changyao came over and took the reins of the horse in his hand. Just as he was about to go in, he saw Xiang Chou approaching. Xiao Changyao took two quick steps and said, "Aunt Xiang Chou?"
"Prince of the county, you are here. The slaves are about to let people go out of the palace to find you. Your concubine asked you to go to the Funing Palace to talk."
Xiao Changyao was very anxious not knowing what was going on with his mother-in-law. The rules of the palace, no matter how much doubts you have in your heart, don't tell them. He walked quickly, Xiang Nong followed behind, and the two of them came to Funing Hall very quickly.
Still in the side hall, Concubine Jing came out from the next room when she heard the movement, and said to her son, "Come in and talk!"
After receiving her son's gift while sitting, she helped him up with her own hands, "You don't have to be so polite in front of your mother."
In the past two years, although she was alone in the palace without the empress dowager and concubines, she lived a very comfortable life, and the original cautiousness also followed.
Before changing, she would never dare to accept her son's gift no matter what.
Xiao Changyao felt a little better, got up, sat next to his mother on the small table, took the tea from Xiang Chou, and asked, "Mother, what do you want to do with your son?"
"Why did you come into the palace? But what's the matter?"
Xiao Changyao told about Xiao Xun asking him to send the Empress Dowager to Yanjing. He didn't dare to say what he had said to Xiao Changyuan in his heart, but said, "My son and elder brother came back from Anling and went to the palace to meet the Empress Dowager. Perhaps the imperial grandmother disliked her son for his lack of ambition, so she never said a word to her son."
Concubine Jing asked her son to come in, and she also asked about this matter, but now she heard it, she looked at her son and said, "You are very sad? Do you still regret that you did not listen to your emperor's grandmother and father's words, and accepted the prince's business? "
Xiao Changyao hurriedly got up and knelt on the ground, lowering his head, "My son dare not, my son doesn't think so, my son never thought of becoming a prince and inheriting the throne."
"I don't think you dare, but you dare!" Concubine Jing said angrily, "You love your grandmother and your father, and you only see your grandmother and your father being bullied. I once thought that they have today, and they are all to blame for themselves!"
Concubine Jing sighed, and walked to the window, "Even if you think so, you can see what people in the world think!"
She turned around and looked at Xiao Changyao, "How can you afford the world with your personality? You are indecisive, and you don't know right from wrong. Even if the throne lets you sit, you are just a foolish emperor, ruining your ancestors for nothing. I am sorry for the people of the world!"
Xiao Changyao lowered his head, "My son dare not!"
"Do you know what Lord Lu told me after your wife and children returned to Beijing? He asked me if I would follow them to Yanjing City? You love your grandmother and father now, but have you ever thought about it? When Emperor Father named you eldest brother, did he ever think about making you a title? You still think about this! It can be seen that you really have no conscience."
"My son is confused!"
"Get up!" Concubine Jing walked up to Xiao Changyao, "If you think like this again, I don't have a son like you!"
"My son is wrong!" Xiao Changyao didn't dare to get up, "I beg mother to forgive my son, it's because my son is confused!"
"Since the emperor asked you to invite the empress dowager to Yanjing, you should try your best to do it. Even if you bear the reputation of being unfilial, you can't let the people in the world call the emperor unfilial."
"Yes, my son remembered it!" Xiao Changyao heaved a sigh of relief, "Where's mother?"
"Since I am your father's emperor's concubine, let's see how the emperor will take care of me as a concubine. Will I go to live in the palace or live with you? I'll talk about it when I go to Yanjing City."
The first update!
