Qi Hao Extra Story (31)

Concubine Shu was executed, and the third prince Yundan was demoted to a commoner and imprisoned. The second prince, Yun Chen, was deprived of his title and exiled to the West Sea.

Hearing the news, Tan Aoshuang couldn't hold back and went.

When Yun Qing heard the news, he said, "How could it be? The empress is still so young." He was fine at such an old age, but he never thought that the empress would pass away at such a young age.

Yu Xi's eyes were also red, and she choked up with sobs and said, "I must have gone because I was too sad."

When Yun Sheng passed away, Tan Ao Shuang blamed herself endlessly after knowing the cause. My health has been poor all these years, and I have to take medicine every day. Now that this happened again, I couldn't bear it anymore.

Jiefa's wife died, and under such circumstances, Qihao also felt very uncomfortable.

After this blow, Qi Hao was extremely emaciated. Yuxi was very distressed, but he was the only one who could get through this matter, no matter how much she comforted her, it was useless.

As soon as the Queen's hundred days passed, the Minister of Rites asked the emperor to appoint a new crown prince.

The emperor is getting old and his body is not as good as before. In case of an accident, Chu Jun is not sure that there will be chaos.

Qi Hao refused to send the discount. But during the court meeting, the minister emphasized the matter again. This time, all civil and military officials had the same intention, that is, they hoped that the emperor could confer the fifth prince, Yun?, as the crown prince.

Yun? is the only remaining direct prince. Even if he doesn't like government affairs, he still has to be crowned prince in terms of etiquette.

At the court meeting, Qi Hao did not express his position. As a result, Yun? got the news and went to the palace, telling Qihao that he didn't want to be the emperor.

Qihao looked at Yun? with a complicated expression: "You really don't want to be a prince?" Just because Yun?

Yun? said sincerely: "Father, my son has never thought of being a prince, and it is not this kind of material. Father, my son likes to study weapons." He likes all kinds of weapons, and also likes to study and transform them. . Other than that, he has no interest in anything else.

If the second child and the third child can be like Yun? Wuxin's throne, Yun Sheng will not be killed, and Brother Bin will not be injured.

Qi Hao panicked, and said: "You come up with a book!" The fifth child himself does not want to be the prince, so it saves a lot of trouble.

Yun? He didn't want to be emperor. Although the courtiers were shocked, they couldn't force themselves to do this kind of thing. The most important thing, without him, there are other princes. Soon, the courtiers set their sights on the fourth prince.

As for Qihao, he also likes the fourth prince, Yunyu.

Qihao is used to discussing important matters with Yuxi, so he told Yuxi about his decision that day.

Yu Xi didn't object, but she didn't agree either: "Let him come to the Compassion Palace later."

Although it is said that Yun is also his grandson, Yu Xi has not had direct contact with him, and does not know him well. Everything he knew was inquired by Yu Sheng.

Qi Hao nodded: "Mother, except that the fourth child is not a direct descendant, other things are not inferior to Sheng'er."

Yuxi knew this a long time ago, otherwise she would have expressed her objection just now: "Whether it is good or bad, I will know when I see it."

Although Yuxi valued the concubine over the concubine, Qihao didn't worry about it. Because he knows that even if Yuxi doesn't like the fourth child, she should take care of the overall situation. Unfortunately, he overestimated Yu Xi.

Yun Qing sighed, and said: "As you expected, Qi Hao wants to make Yun? the crown prince."

As an emperor, you must not be emotional, you must proceed from the overall situation. Therefore, it must be the safest thing for Qihao to confer the title of an adult prince when he is in poor health.

In the evening, Yun? went to the Palace of Mercy Ning to greet Yuxi and Yunqing. After living for twenty-four years, this is the first time Yun? has set foot in the Compassion Palace. There was no superfluous expression on Ke Yun's face, and he walked through the gate of the Compassionate Ning Palace very calmly.

Seeing Yunqing and Yuxi, Yun? knelt on the ground on one knee: "Yun? met the emperor's grandfather and emperor's grandmother."

Yun? looks good, with thick eyebrows and sharp eyes, and a strong figure. It's just that there is a sharp flash between the brows, and the eyes are bottomless.

Seeing him, Yun Qing couldn't help showing a smile on his face: "My family doesn't need to be polite, get up quickly."

"Thank you, Grandfather and Grandmother." After speaking, she stood up.

Yuxi's expression was very indifferent, and she said to Yun: "The courtier wants to register a new crown prince, what do you think of this matter?"

Yun? Said in a deep voice: "This matter is decided by the emperor himself, and the grandson dare not speak rashly."

Yuxi deliberately sighed and said: "It's a pity that you are not a descendant, otherwise you would be a perfect candidate for the crown prince." After finishing speaking, Yuxi stared at Yun?

This is too hurtful.

When Yun Qing heard this, he couldn't help turning his head to look at Yu Xi. When did Yuxi become so straightforward.

Yun? Hearing this, there was still no fluctuation on his face, and he said, "Grandmother, grandson dare not have such extravagant hopes. Grandson just wants to do something practical for the people within his power."

Hearing this, Yu Xi nodded slightly, and then asked: "Have you had dinner yet?"

Hearing Yun? said no, Yuxi said: "Stay here at night and use it with us!"

The elder did not dare to say goodbye, Yun? nodded and said: "Okay."

As a prince, Yun Xi has learned etiquette very well. It's a sight to behold, especially pleasing to the eye.

After dinner, Yuxi asked: "I heard that you are very good at chess, play a game with me."

Yun? hesitated for a while and said: "Grandson is not good at chess, I'm afraid it will ruin your elegance, grandma."

After hearing this, Yun Qing said: "Playing chess is just a pastime, it doesn't matter if you are not good at chess." No matter how bad it is, it's not as bad as him.

Yun? To say that he is not good at chess is out of humility. His chess skills are very good, Yuxi can only draw with him when playing against him. In fact, Yuxi is old, and her reaction is not as fast as before. It's just that Yun? plays chess very cautiously, taking one step and watching three moves. After more than half an hour, the game ended with a draw.

At this time, it was dark. Yuxi didn't leave Yunyun anymore, and let him go back.

Seeing her frowning, Yun Qing asked, "What's the matter?" He thought this grandson was pretty good, not only intelligent, but also very calm in his actions. Except that she is not a direct descendant, she can handle everything. But he could feel that Yuxi didn't like this grandson.

"Thoughts are too deep for people to see through."

Hearing this, Yun Qing said: "Didn't you say that those in positions of power should not show their emotions or anger? If you want to show everything on your face, it's easy to be fooled by others."

"He is a very good candidate for the crown prince, but I can't let him be the crown prince." Yuxi also felt that luck was tricking people. Ruoyun is the prince born in the first line, there is no dispute about this matter.

Yun Qing didn't understand, and asked, "Why?"

"Because I'm worried." There was nothing to hide from Yunqing, so Yuxi immediately said what she was worried about.

After hearing this, Yun Qing didn't make a sound for a while, and then said: "Maybe you are too worried, no matter what, Liu Erya and Qiyou are his elders. If you don't like them, at most you can ignore them, and you won't be able to kill them. "

But Yuxi didn't think about it: "Brother Bin had an accident, and he was working outside. So, he didn't get involved in this matter at all. He Rui, don't you think it's a coincidence?" Go to the Northwest to check on the empty salary , was originally sent by Yu Xinxue, the left servant of the household department. But he didn't expect that Yu Xinxue suddenly developed a high fever the night before departure, and the job finally fell on Yun?

"Before that, I also thought it was a coincidence? But now, I'm not sure." After finishing speaking, Yu Xi looked at Yun Qing and said, "He Rui, I don't want to be unable to rest my eyes under the Nine Springs after a hundred years." If she had no choice, she would accept it for the sake of the overall situation. But since there is still a choice, Yuxi will not compromise on this.

After hearing Yu Xi's words, Yun Qing dispelled the thought just now, but he was also worried: "But brother Lang is too young, even if we say that Tong Qihao canonize him as the crown prince, there is no guarantee that there will be no accidents again."

"If that's the case, then it's destiny." Do your best and obey the destiny.

After saying this, Yuxi said: "You just need to know about it, don't tell Qihao and any of them." It goes without saying who is closer in Qihao's heart, brothers or children. If he knew her true thoughts, Qi Hao would definitely feel uncomfortable.

A hundred-year-old son has ninety-nine long-term worries. Now he really understands that old saying deeply. They are all so old, and they still work hard for their children.

Yuxi called Qiyouren early the next morning and asked him to investigate why Yu Xinxue suddenly fell ill that day.

After getting the result, Yuxi went to Qihao and expressed that she disagreed with the canonization of Yun? as the prince.

Qi Hao smiled wryly and said: "Mother, if I have a choice, I don't want to make the fourth child the heir apparent." How can he not know that Yu Xi values ​​the concubine and despises the concubine? into such a passive situation.

After a pause, Qihao said: "Mother, how about we record the fourth child under the empress's name." In this way, Yun can be regarded as the first son.

A look of coldness flashed across Yuxi's face, and she said, "I'm afraid that if you really put him in the Queen's name, the Queen will not be able to rest in peace under the Nine Springs."

"Mother..." These words are too serious.

Yuxi said: "Qiyou found out that Yu Xinxue ate two bowls of rice the night before he fell ill. On the second day, he had a high fever and couldn't get sick. You don't think it's strange."

A middle-aged man in his prime in his forties, nothing happened at home, and fell ill in just one night. No matter how you look at it, something is wrong.

After hearing this, Qihao immediately asked, "When did it happen? Qiyou didn't tell me?"

Yu Xi said: "I asked Qiyou to investigate this matter. It's just that apart from finding out that Yu Xinxue's illness is strange, I didn't find any other suspicious points."

Qihao knew that Yuxi would not let him canonize the fourth child as the crown prince: "Mother, Brother Lang is too young. If something happens to me, the ruler is weak and the minister is strong, and it will definitely bring disaster to the world."

Yuxi said: "Your father and I have lived to this age, but we haven't lived enough! You are only in your early fifties, why do you always want to have an accident yourself?"

"Just in case."

Yuxi said in a deep voice: "There is no chance. You haven't heard an old saying that parents live long, and children generally live long. Your father and I both live long, and you will definitely live to this age in the future."

What Yu Xi said just now made Qi Hao feel suspicious, so this time he didn't insist on canonizing the fourth prince as the crown prince: "Mother, let me think about it again."
