My Stepmother Is Soft and Charming

Chapter 611 Concubine Hui Blames

Unfortunately, the second prince was a little reluctant to listen.

"Mother, instead of paving the way for your son, you suppress him so much. You must know that a person's life is short of such a breath. If your son can make a leap, won't you also benefit from it? At that time, you will be the most honorable woman in the harem as the queen mother. Don't you want such a good thing?"

"I don't want it!"

Hui Fei blushed for a rare time and started to talk back.

"You always think about how bright the future is, but have you ever thought about what it feels like to fall from the clouds? Aren't we high enough now? What else do you want? Prince Rong, how respectable and honorable, the seventh prince, how favored and how many opportunities, even they can't compete with them, why do you think you can succeed? Son, sometimes people don't lack breath, but lack the courage and courage to face themselves. You and I are not people who can reach the highest peak, why force it?"

Hui Fei was afraid that the second prince would make mistakes at every step, after all, he would be the next Prince Rong.

Although the Third Prince's status is more noble and respectable, the Earl's Mansion couldn't even protect Prince Rong, so it's not certain that it can protect the Third Prince!

Concubine Hui's scolding gradually cooled the Second Prince's heated mind.

Of course, he was not convinced that the throne would be handed over to someone else, but as his mother said, what could he fight for now?

So he relaxed his clenched fists again, and after going back and forth several times, he finally suppressed the desire in his heart.

"Mother is right. I almost did something stupid."

"My son, it's good to think clearly. No matter who ascends the throne, you and I are redundant in their eyes. I just hope that a more virtuous king will come and send us to a remote place early to live a quiet life for a few years."

Hui Fei never asked for much. She had hardly gone out since she entered the East Palace, and it was even more so when she entered the palace later. So if she could go to the fiefdom with her sons, it would be a great thing for her.

But the second prince didn't think so in his heart. Even if it was difficult to stay in Sui'an City, he would try his best to stay, because only by staying would there be a chance!

Thirty years in the east and thirty years in the west. He is only twenty years old now, there are many possibilities!

The conversation between the two soon reached the ears of Liu Gonggong.

He had ears and eyes in the palace everywhere, so there was nothing he didn't know. It's just that he didn't care about this unremarkable second prince like other people before. Unexpectedly, he actually had such a plan.

After thinking about it, he sent the news intact to the General's Mansion.

In Xitang Courtyard, Gu Shaoyu finally returned with a legitimate reason, but because the outside news was spreading like wildfire, he was just hiding at home.

The couple sat quietly on the couch with a bright window, and Du Jingyi said while pouring tea for him.

"Eunuch Liu is really helpful. He has sent news home a lot in these years."

That's right, Eunuch Liu was also on the list that Gu Shaoyu gave to Du Jingyi, so later, taking the opportunity of sending New Year gifts, Du Jingyi also successfully got in touch with him.

And this connection lasted for several years. Looking back at the first time they met, it was the time when he came to announce the decree in the Duke's Mansion.

At that time, Du Jingyi didn't know that Eunuch Liu would actually be a chess piece buried in the palace by the old Marshal Gu. No wonder he and Gu Shaoyu always got closer. Du Jingyi always thought it was because of Queen Mother Guo.

"Prince Rong is a good man. Before he died, he was still thinking about finding a way out for his brothers. But the second prince is a fool. He didn't listen to Concubine Hui's advice. It seems that staying here will be a disaster."

"Does the general mean to get rid of him?"

"This kind of person is not worth my action. He will suffer in the future. But this time, after the prince ascends the throne, I plan to let eunuch Liu retire. He has spent most of his life in the cusp of the storm. If possible, it is better to return to his hometown and live a stable life for a few years."

Du Jingyi still agrees with this, not only eunuch Liu, but also many people on the list.

They are about the same age as the old marshal Gu, and some have even passed away and handed over their network of relationships to their children and grandchildren.

The Gu family has no intention of competing for the world. If the prince is really a good person, then there is really no need for this list of the Gu family.

"General, let's disperse. When we go to Cezhou, the emperor is far away and can't take care of this mess. If the prince is virtuous, there will be many helpers, but if he is unvirtuous, there will be people who can deal with him."

The children are growing up slowly. Five or ten years will be their world.

And Du Jingyi didn't want to stay here for a long time, so leaving was not a big problem for her.

"Well, I have asked Ni Yang to arrange the general's mansion in Cezhou. I guarantee that it will be no different from here, so you can live comfortably there."

"General, you underestimate me. Wherever I am, I can live comfortably!"

Du Jingyi's words were not exaggerated, so Gu Shaoyu took her hand, and the two smiled at each other, with rare calmness.

In half a month, the emperor will be sent to the imperial mausoleum.

But now there is no one in charge in the court. Even if there is no trouble, it is not a long-term solution, so people began to discuss whether to establish the third prince or the second prince.

But at this time, a third voice appeared, led by the Minister of War, Mr. Xing, who wanted to support the prince of Prince Yin to take the throne!

For such a request, the old-school officials in the court were naturally dissatisfied.

But when he took out the report on the situation in Yinzhou in recent years, the ministers and ministers in the six ministries fell silent.

They were silent because they knew the ability of the prince of Prince Yin, which was far beyond their reach. It was naturally a wise choice to establish him, but if they were asked to jump out and request such a thing, they felt a little embarrassed.

Therefore, after a few days of stalemate, the Minister of Personnel, Mr. Yan, expressed his position.

"If Prince Rong were still alive, then my Yan family should have nominated him to inherit the throne for both public and private reasons. But now, none of the three princes are suitable. If we insist on pushing them up because of the old rules, I'm afraid it will only delay the country and the people! It's better to let a virtuous person take the throne. Since Prince Yin can govern Yinzhou so well, then isn't it just around the corner for us to rise to power?"
