A tree of peach blossoms pressing the prime minister

Chapter 149 The Ignored Prince
When the news spread back to the backyard, Taohua hurriedly went to comfort Gu Huairou, and everyone saw the direction of the wind, and followed Taohua's actions.Mei Zhaoxue thought about her mistakes in Linghan Courtyard alone, and no one dared to care about her.

"Her father is just relying on the support of the prince." Gu Qingying stood in the Wenqing Pavilion with a handkerchief and said: "The prince is not in a good situation now, his hand injury has not recovered, and he is fighting with King Heng. Who knows what will happen in the future?" Whose world is it? Gu Niangzi, don't be too sad, people who have done bad things will have retribution sooner or later!"

Taohua paused and looked back at her.

This man really dares to say anything!

Looking at Taohua's eyes, Gu Qingying realized that she might have said the wrong thing, and quickly covered her mouth: "I don't mean that by myself... Anyway, Madam Gu, please be at ease, so that we, Madam Jiang, don't worry so much."

Gu Huairou pursed her lips, leaned against the head of the bed and said indifferently: "The status of the family is still the most important thing in this yard. Mei's father can help you a lot. With such a result, I have nothing to say."

Gu Qingying was taken aback for a moment, as if she just figured it out: "So that's the truth, no wonder..."

No wonder Mrs. Jiang asked them to persuade the family to help Xiangye with things. It turned out that it was really for their own good!
Glancing at Jiang Taohua moved, Gu Qingying secretly moved his mind, wrote a letter to his family when he returned from Wenqing Pavilion, and asked his mother to come over to talk.

Naturally, Nan Gongqin and the other servants who wanted to be in the top position were not idle. For a while, Shen Zaiye inexplicably received many people's overtures. Some officials who had been vague before all sincerely came to join him.

After thinking about it for a while, he knew what was going on, Shen Zaiye smiled, and didn't go to Jiang Taohua to say anything, but accepted all her kindness, and then quickly used it.

Nan Wang accompanied the emperor in his micro-clothes wandering around the capital.

Ever since the emperor had a serious illness, he disliked staying in the palace even more. He always liked to pay private visits in disguise, wanting to see what the world was like.He used to be accompanied by guards, but today he brought Mu Wuxia out on a whim.

"You stay in the palace every day, you must be bored, right?" Emperor Mingde looked at him kindly and said: "Today, I will go for a stroll with my father."

Mu Wuxia was stunned for a moment, then cupped his hands and said, "Going back to Emperor Father, I have not stayed in the palace all the time, this country is everywhere, and I am very familiar with you."

"Oh?" The emperor was a little surprised: "Don't they always stay in their own boundaries without moving? You like to run."

"It's nothing to do." Mu Wuxia lowered his eyes and said, "If there is anything the father wants to see, the sons and daughters can lead the way for the father."

"Okay!" Emperor Ming De Yue patted him on the back and said, "It's because I neglected you too much. I didn't expect that you are the one who understands people's sentiments the most among all my princes. Although this world is my world, but If you want to last forever, you still have to take good care of the people."

Mu Wuxia was taken aback for a moment, and opened his mouth to speak, but held back and didn't speak out.The emperor could see this expression, raised his eyebrows and said: "If you have anything to say, just say it, today you and I are just father and son, regardless of monarch or minister."

"If you say something like this, I'm afraid my father will think that my son is rebellious." Mu Wuxia raised his head, his eyes were full of sincerity and said: "But since you asked my son to speak bluntly, then I will dare to ask—— Father, Gu Hao The common people, just to make your name famous forever?"

The emperor was taken aback, and his expression sank slightly: "There is no emperor who does not want to be famous forever. I am willing to spend my thoughts on this, so that the people can live a good life. Is there anything wrong?"

Mu Wuxia pursed her lips, lowered her head and asked, "Then if one day, the reputation of the father and the lives of the people conflict, how will the father choose?"

"How is this possible?" The emperor said displeasedly: "Even if it is possible, for the sake of the overall situation, the emperor's reputation must be more important."

Mu Wuxia pursed her lips, shook her head and said, "I really still can't accept what my father thinks."

Previously, he was punished twice because he disagreed with the emperor's political views, and because of this, he was even more disliked by the emperor.But Mu Wuxia didn't feel that he was wrong. Emperor Mingde was too selfish, and it was impossible for him to be an emperor like this.For the sake of good reputation, how can it stand up to the praise of later generations if it is a superficial effort for a while?

Emperor Mingde was slightly annoyed, but when he thought that he was the one who asked him to speak first, he suppressed his anger and said coldly: "So you can't become a prince because you don't know how to be an emperor well."

Mu Wuxia lowered his head and remained silent.

"Your Majesty, the literary world is ahead." Someone outside the car said respectfully, "Would you like to come down and have a look?"

The literary arena is a teaching forum opened by Confucian masters in the capital, and it is near the Chenghuang Temple.Children who have no money to go to private schools will attend classes here, and many officials have been educated here. It is the best place to control the thoughts of literati.

Emperor Mingde got out of the car, and Mu Wuxia followed behind him. As soon as the two stepped into the gate of the literary world, many people bowed their hands and saluted.

The emperor was startled, looked down at himself, frowned and said, "I'm not wearing a dragon robe, how did they recognize it?"

Mu Wuxia was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to explain it. He was hesitating when a scholar came by and bowed to him, "Senior Brother Mu, Master happens to be here today, do you want to pay his respects?"

Brother Mu?Emperor Ming De looked at the scholar from the side, thinking that this is new, he dared to call him the surname instead of the prince, Mu is the surname of the emperor!
"I see." Mu Wuxia nodded and said, "Look around first, and then go to greet Master later."

"Okay." The scholar cupped his hands, made a simple salute to the emperor, and went elsewhere.

Emperor Mingde narrowed his eyes and scanned the surroundings, only to realize that these literati were paying respects to Mu Wuxia, rather than recognizing his identity.

"Are you related to this literary world?"

Mu Wuxia cupped his hands and said, "My ministers often come to teach the master, so I am familiar with them."

teaching? !The emperor was shocked: "You are only 16 years old. It is said that the people who teach here are all famous people. Why are you joining in the fun?"

He lowered his head stiffly, and Mu Wuxia didn't know how to explain it. A book boy in ragged clothes heard it and said with a smile, "Mr. said, don't judge people by age. Although Mr. Mu is young, he is proficient in Confucianism and literary talent." It is amazing, it is indeed a role model for everyone to learn from, if adults do not believe it, you can listen to Mr. Mu's lecture."

The emperor was stunned, looking at the silent prince with his head bowed in front of him, he said after a long while: "You have such attainments, why have you never mentioned it to me?"

"It has nothing to do with the government, and there is nothing to say." Mu Wuxia smiled: "My son is still young, and it will not be too late to report to the emperor when he reaches the master's attainments."

This child... the emperor shook his head and led him inside: "Since you know how to teach, then I should listen to it and teach me a lesson."
