Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 463 Too unfeminine
For a moment, everyone's heart skipped a beat, they raised their heads involuntarily, and Qiqi looked at Zhao Xiwei.

There was sympathy, curiosity, and astonishment, but most of them came from the courtiers watching with cold eyes.

You know, the position of the Crown Princess of the Eastern Palace was fought over by all the major families.

There are a group of dignified officials in the court, who didn't try their best to approach the East Palace in different ways, just to send their daughter to the prince.

Even Uncle Gu Guo, who was hiding his secrets, had a bad idea at the beginning.

As long as his daughter can secure the position of the princess, do you still have to worry about not being able to hold the young prince?

However, what is desperate is that although the prince is young, his ambition is different from ordinary people.

After all, the emperor had put a lot of effort into him, and after more than ten years of personal education, he was already the most qualified heir apparent. If he wanted to use women to confuse and control him, it would be the end of his good life.

Therefore, the first courtier in this dynasty to kick the iron plate was the prince's own uncle, Gu Yong.

It is close to the water, but it is not possible to get the moon first, and uncles and uncles may not be able to kiss each other.

After the beauty trick failed, Gu Yong was demoted from the capital by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince himself.

His Highness the Crown Prince's method of killing chickens and monkeys was perfect, and all the courtiers who were about to make a move woke up from their dreams in fright.

He rummaged through the boxes and cabinets overnight to find out his secret plan hidden behind the bookshelf, and shiveringly polished the fire folder himself, threw all the kits into the charcoal basin, and watched the pictures of beauties burn. Turned into ashes, still feeling lingering fear, he picked up the teapot again and poured a large pot of cold water.

The scorched kit, mixed with the ashes of silk, was swirled in the cold water for a while, and finally all ashes disappeared without leaving a trace.

Since then, the East Palace has been peaceful.

When I came back from riding and shooting, a beautiful woman whom I still pitied suddenly appeared on the road, kneeling in front of the horse and crying;

When I will never attend a banquet again, a group of dancers with delicate bodies and soft bodies will suddenly appear at the banquet, twisting their slender waists to secretly send glances;
What's even more strange is that those aristocratic daughters with both talent and beauty seemed to be under house arrest overnight, and no one ran away to the palace any more...

After all, this young prince turned out to be such a ruthless person.He became so ruthless that even his own uncle would not be spared, who would dare to send him to his death again?

The change of the courtiers was so obvious that the emperor was not used to it.

One day, after waking up from an afternoon nap, he leaned halfway on the dragon couch, sighed, and asked, "Cao De, tell me, isn't the crown prince a bit unfeminine? he?"

Cao De brought the emperor a decoction, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you really know how to joke. The crown prince is a heir who you cultivated with your own hands. Who else in this world understands him better than you?"

The emperor laughed loudly, took the medicine bowl, drank a few sips, and asked again: "By the way, the little girl from the imperial concubine's family didn't enter the palace today?"

Cao De swept the golden silk red carpet under the dragon bed with his whisk, lifted his clothes and knelt down on the ground, pinched the emperor's legs, and said slowly: "If your majesty really thinks that Miss Pei is suitable, why didn't you issue an imperial decree to marry her?" Woolen cloth?"

"You are a genius!" The emperor put down the tureen, shook his head and said, "I really want to make an order, but the crown prince has to be so thoughtful!"

After finishing speaking, the brows frowned involuntarily.

Did he raise the prince too well...

I think when he was 16 years old, he already had three concubines.

But the prince was devoted to the government.

The emperor put his hands behind his back, walked a few steps in the hall in silence, and suddenly said: "Cao De, do you think the prince's studies are too heavy? Every day he practices literature and martial arts, and more than a dozen teachers guard him. , I look very tired..."

Still smiling, Cao De replied unhurriedly: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, no one in this world knows the prince better than you."

The emperor glared at him: "Don't talk to me about these scenes!" He felt a little too tense, so he softened his expression and said in a gentle voice: "You also know how difficult it is to be a father. He is only 15 years old now. , I am not yet mature, how can I be at ease? Didn't I want to hear your opinion?"

Cao De pursed the corners of his lips, thinking that Laonu is a eunuch, how can he understand your feelings as a father?
However, he can be regarded as watching the prince grow up, and he understands the emperor's worries at this time-whose son has such a cruel method that all relatives do not recognize, everyone will sweat...

However, the prince lost his mother when he was young, the emperor has been ill for a long time, and there is such a powerful queen mother, if he doesn't have a cold heart, how will he be able to sit firmly in this world in the future?
Cao De thought about it, then smiled and comforted the emperor and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the crown prince is still young, and maybe the fate has not yet arrived, so he has no thoughts on female sex. If the fate comes in the future, maybe he will take the initiative to ask you It's a marriage decree!"

Seeing that the corners of the emperor's eyes were gradually smiling, he heaved a sigh of relief, and joked with the emperor: "I see, Your Majesty, you only need to worry about one thing—"

The emperor's smile stopped immediately: "What's the matter?"

Cao De laughed out loud, and jokingly said, "What you should be worried about is, what kind of fairy-like beauty should she be to win the favor of the crown prince?"

"Hahahaha!" The emperor was in a good mood, and he raised his legs and stepped out of the palace door: "You are slick, you are getting more and more slick! I will go to the study now and sue you to the prince, and ask him to show you some color! "

"Ouch!" Cao De stomped his feet, and trotted to follow: "Your Majesty, please spare this servant, who dare not offend His Highness the Crown Prince!"

……

The emperor was joking, but he really didn't take Cao De's reminder to heart.

What I didn't expect was that Cao De really hit the mark.

When the crown prince asked him for a marriage proposal, he was excited, happy and worried.

Excited that the kid finally got the hang of it.

The happy thing is that he will be able to hold the emperor's grandson in his arms soon!
What worries me is that the prince's fancy is actually Zhao Ziyi's daughter...

"That daughter of Zhao Ziyi?" The emperor thought it was Zhao Chengyan at first, so he was a little hesitant: "I have seen that child once or twice at the palace banquet. Although she looks educated and reasonable, she is too petty..." He laughed again, Patted his son's shoulder: "Of course, if the prince likes it, I have no objection!"

The crown prince frowned: "Father, she is the daughter of Zhao Ziyi and Shen Yuqing!"

The emperor's smile froze instantly.

The prince hurriedly walked around the dragon chair, pinched the emperor's shoulders graciously, and said in a soft voice: "Father, she is a descendant of the Shen family. Shen Mu was a famous person of the generation back then. As Shen Mu's granddaughter, How can qualifications be worse? Besides, Father, don’t you feel deeply ashamed of Shen Mu’s death? If Erchen married his granddaughter, wouldn’t it make up for the regret in your heart?”
