Red House Shoufu

Chapter 227

Qi Bohan was dragged out of the Hall of Qinzheng by the Han general, and just after leaving the gate of the hall, he ran into Prince Gao Wancheng.

Gao Wancheng looked at Qi Bohan who was taken out, and asked in surprise: "Master Qi, you are..."

The big Han general let go of his hand, saluted respectfully and said hello: "Meet Your Highness the Crown Prince!"

Qi Bohan tidied up his crumpled official robe, took the official hat from the big Han general, put it on straight and bowed and replied: "The old minister was rude, just now the old minister offended Sheng Yan, and His Majesty punished the old minister to go home and contemplate his mistakes behind closed doors."

"Master Qi, then you just have a good rest at home for a few days. The students are going to intercede with the father, and you will come back when the father calms down..."

The four bachelors in the cabinet all have the responsibility to teach the prince.As a lecturer, Qi Bohan would enter the East Palace every five days to give lectures to Gao Wancheng.

Aside from Gao Wancheng's disinterest in the Neo-Confucianism he talked about, Qi Bohan's talent, learning and character are still very admirable.

"Your Highness, don't plead for the old minister. The old minister accepts His Majesty's punishment because he really offended Shengyan, but the old minister feels that his advice is correct!"

Qi Bohan stubbornly cupped his hands in the direction of the main hall, and said loudly: "The old minister still said that the law of the ancestors cannot be changed, and the prince of the clan cannot command the army, otherwise there will be endless troubles!"

"Oh my old Qi Ge, why are you still yelling here..."

Xia Shouzhong had just delivered his lunch when he heard Qi Bohan's shout as soon as he left the palace gate.After seeing Gao Wancheng, he hurriedly saluted: "The old slave pays homage to the young master. The emperor said that the old man Qi Ge is visibly haggard to the naked eye. Let the old slave go to the imperial hospital and ask the imperial doctor to diagnose the old man Qi Ge's pulse."

Gao Wancheng waved his hand and said: "Let's go quickly. Master Zhang is not here, and it is a troubled time. The three teachers have indeed reduced a lot. Let the imperial hospital prescribe some nourishing prescriptions, and send them to the mansion after the medicine is prepared. "

"Old slave obey!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Royal Highness..."

Qi Bohan blushed towards the direction of the main hall and bowed his hands to Gao Wancheng to thank him, and then muttered: "The old minister still said the same thing, the clan prince cannot lead the army!"

"Okay, okay, Master Qi's meaning, the student union will tell the father. You should go back to rest first, and return to the cabinet to manage politics in a few days."

Gao Wancheng told the big Han general who was standing beside him dumbfounded, "Go find a carriage and take Master Qi back to the residence."

"The last general takes orders!"

"The old minister bid farewell!"

"Master Qi, go slowly!"

Qi Bohan's figure slowly disappeared from Gao Wancheng's sight. Gao Wancheng thought for a moment, then turned and walked towards the entrance of the main hall.

At this time, Wei Qinghe and Ren Guocheng also came out. After the three greeted each other, Gao Wancheng asked, "Teacher, is Master Qi's admonishment for Uncle Jiu leading the army?"

Wei Qinghe nodded and replied: "It is true that because of this matter, His Majesty is in a bad mood, and he doesn't even want to eat lunch. Your Highness came just in time, go and persuade him..."

After the three of them parted, Gao Wancheng knocked on the closed door of the palace: "Father, has your son come in?"

"come in!"

After getting permission, Gao Wancheng pushed open the door of the palace, only to see the emperor sitting behind the table with an unhappy expression on his face, and the simple lunch on the table did not move.

"Cheng'er, I'm asking you for my father, if someone tells you that Xuan'er is going to compete for the crown prince, what will you do?"

The emperor looked up at his son with a searching look in his eyes.Gao Wancheng smiled freely: "If this is the case, I will not listen to what others say, I will have my own opinion. Besides, my father once taught me that as long as I am strong, I don't have to worry about all challenges!"

"That's right, only when you have strong strength, can you really suppress others."

The emperor finally showed a smile. He called Gao Wancheng to sit beside him, and complained about Qi Bohan's outrageous remonstrance today.

I only heard the emperor say: "This old man is getting more stubborn as he gets older. It's such a happy event, but he's so disturbed that he doesn't even have the interest to drink a glass of wine to celebrate."

Gao Wancheng picked up the jug on the table, poured wine and served it to the emperor: "Isn't my son here to celebrate with the emperor? In the battle of Xingyang, the biggest gain was not the dissolution of water, but the complete destruction of the Zheng family in Xingyang. Influence in Henan for a thousand years."

The emperor laughed, took the glass and drank it down.He said appreciatively: "My son is intelligent, with five surnames and seven wangs. This kind of moth that should have been abandoned long ago is still lingering in Henan. Now that the Zheng family is removed, the people in Henan can finally stop suffering from the aristocratic family."

"I really didn't expect Uncle Jiu to have the talent to lead troops in battle. I thought Uncle Jiu could only... only..."

"Can only fight eagles and lackeys? Sing opera and listen to music?"

The emperor shook his head, and sighed, "Your ninth uncle has been smart since he was a child, and he can learn everything quickly. It's a pity that your uncle was like the light of a bright moon back then, and other people were inconspicuous compared to him."

"Cheng'er, do you think you should call your ninth uncle back as a father?" The emperor suddenly changed the subject and asked.

Gao Wancheng shook his head, and he solemnly replied: "It's not appropriate to change generals just before the battle. What's more, if this imperial edict is issued, what will Uncle Jiu think in his heart? Ever since Uncle Jiu left the capital, there has been no criticism from the capital. Stop it. There may not be someone with a heart behind it, and the purpose is to drive apart the brotherhood between the father and the ninth uncle."

After listening to Gao Wancheng's answer, the emperor reached out and touched his son's head, sighing, "My son has grown up..."

……

Lin Shu didn't know what happened in the palace, he and Daiyu stayed in Rongguo Mansion until evening before slowly returning home.

After Wang Qi and his son came back from the yamen, the three were discussing the war in Henan. Wang Xiao came over and said, "You three have brought important court affairs home again? Yuan'er and Yu'er are already waiting for you to have dinner... ..."

"Ma'am, don't urge me, let's go, let's go!"

After a few people happily finished their dinner, they gathered around to enjoy the night and chat.

Wang Xiaoshi suddenly changed the subject, and said a startling sentence: "Huan'er is about the same age as Brother Shu, so the master doesn't worry about his lifelong affairs?"

"Huh? Shouldn't Madam decide this matter?"

"mother……"

In Wang Huan's terrified eyes, Wang Qi said with a smile: "Ma'am just looks at each other. If you think about it with Madam's eyes, you can definitely see who you like!"

Lin Shu couldn't help giving a thumbs up to his father-in-law in his heart, what he said was beautiful, if his mother-in-law could mention this, he definitely already had a candidate in his mind.

Sure enough, Wang Xiaoshi turned his eyes to Daiyu, looked at Daiyu tenderly and said: "Yu'er invited girls from Jia's family to play a few days ago, and the second girl among them is very nice and gentle. She is virtuous and has a good temper. There is also the big girl from the historian, who is lively and refreshing, but the age difference is a bit big..."

The fourteenth year of the Spring Festival, Rongguo Mansion is already preparing for the Jiji ceremony.Shi Xiangyun is younger, just turned twelve.In contrast, Wang Xiaoshi is more optimistic about Yingchun. Although there are differences in civil and martial arts, the Rongguo Mansion can still provide Wang Huan with a lot of help.

Both Daiyu and Wang Yuan covered their mouths in surprise, and stared at Wang Xiaoshi with wide eyes.The two sisters had never heard of any news. Unexpectedly, Wang Xiaoshi had already chosen a candidate, and he was familiar with him!
