Chapter 521 Teaching a Son

Ordinary families would definitely not tell their children about such things.

But if you are born in the royal family, there is nothing you cannot know.

Tiona has always paid attention to her son's education, but now that he is older, it is time for him to be exposed to these things.

Otherwise, it would be ridiculous for the great emperor of Daxia to fall for beauty in the future.

The eldest prince Qin's face changed drastically, and he looked at his mother in disbelief.

His father, who was so glorious in his heart, actually had such a side?

But what was more shocking at this time was the eunuch.

In theory, eunuchs like him are all civil servants, not people from the inner court.

The emperor brought him with him, drafted edicts, and was familiar with government affairs. When he had enough experience, he would be sent out to serve as a local official, which was just right.

So the queen would not avoid the palace servants around her when she spoke, but she would definitely avoid the eunuchs.

In the past, he would definitely wait for an audience.

But today, in order to get a good start and congratulate the eldest prince on his title, he did not wait and prepared to announce the decree directly.

Who knew that a disaster would come from heaven and he would hear a big melon.

In that instant, his face turned pale, his thighs trembled, and he wished he was deaf.

At this time, the eunuch who followed him had already reminded him: "Queen, there is a eunuch beside His Majesty to pass on the decree."

The queen and her son were startled and turned around together.

The eunuch did not dare to look up and opened the edict: "Your Majesty decrees: The eldest prince Qin Renhou is filial and has a good character, and is conferred... Count Augusta."

Sweating like rain, the eunuch put away the edict and forced a smile: "Congratulations, Queen, congratulations to His Highness."

"It's time to congratulate, reward!" The queen calmly announced: "Give the eunuch a thousand gold coins, a house in the capital, and a son to serve as an official."

A generous reward, an absolute generous reward.

The eunuch looked desperate, and obviously understood why such a generous reward was given.

But this was the best outcome. He knelt down to thank her, saying, "Thank you, Madam, thank you, Your Highness."

He stood up and bowed to the emperor, saying, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

"I, your servant, wish to fall into the water and die."

"Allowed."

The queen was unusually indifferent. The eldest prince Qin just realized what happened and wanted to say something, but was held down.

The eunuch glanced at him and smiled.

Then he handed over the imperial edict, tidied his robes, and turned around and left.

"He is a smart man, but he made a mistake. Qin... You must remember what the rules are. They are restraints and protections. Do you understand?" The queen looked at her son.

Qin was confused and didn't understand.

The queen didn't explain any more. After all, she still needed to see and understand them herself.

For the eunuch, death was the only thing.

If he really walked out alive, he would have to worry about his family.

On the contrary, now that money, funeral affairs, and family members have all been arranged, it is already the queen's kindness.

Standing in front of the pond, he deeply regretted that the strict laws were justified. They were the protection for the weak!

"Smart for a lifetime, confused for a moment, regretful!

If it is convenient, please tell my son to abide by the laws of the empire."

The eunuch looked at him without saying anything, and didn't know if he agreed.

The eunuch didn't continue to beg, but jumped into the water.

He didn't struggle much, just swung a few times at the end, and then he was completely dead.

The eunuch watched him die calmly, and then sighed slightly.

After all, he was the eunuch appointed by His Majesty's entourage. No matter his talent and integrity, he was the best choice and didn't embarrass His Majesty.

"What a pity!"

"The eunuch fell into the water on the way back and drowned. Fish him out!"

Since the eunuch did his duty, the empire would naturally give him a decent look.

All the affairs before and after death must be handled properly.

Even the body must be decent.

...

The queen took the eldest prince to find Derek, and Qin didn't slow down all the way.

I don't know if it's because he knows his father's secret or because of the death of the eunuch.

So much so that when he saw Derek, his eyes were a little evasive.

"Why are you here?" Derek was a little surprised. His family always got along casually, so he shouldn't come to thank him!

The queen's face did not change, and she said very calmly: "Your Majesty's eunuch... drowned."

"How can you be so careless... No, what happened?" Derek reacted. How long has it been? Even if the eunuch drowned, it doesn't make sense that the queen got the news and she didn't know.

So Tiona told the whole story, and then someone came to report that the eunuch had just drowned on the way back.

"Why are you telling this to the child?" Derek was a little embarrassed, and after thinking about it, he said: "It's too early, the family affection is still young."

Derek accepted his own romantic past to educate his children.

The education that the crown prince should receive should include all aspects, and there should be no obvious omissions.

"Fourteen years old, how can you still be young? My elder brother got married and had children when he was fourteen. You just spoil these children too much." Tiona's concept in this regard is completely different from Derek's.

Derek thought about it and realized that he was indeed not young anymore. He was always influenced by his past life's thinking.

But he felt it was a pity. The eunuch was still talented.

"Forget it. He was so aggressive. Maybe this is a good ending." Derek was no longer upset. He thought about it and said, "Intercept the Queen's order and send it in my name."

The eunuch died, but the reward was given in the name of the queen, which could easily be guessed by those with ulterior motives.

If he met someone with bad intentions, he might use this as an excuse to embarrass his family.

The reward in the name of the emperor was equivalent to a layer of protection.

Derek did his best and could only do so.

Although a eunuch died, it seemed that nothing had changed.

The couple chatted for a few words and then turned to Qin's marriage.

"Your Majesty, you issued an edict to confer a title. Are you going to choose a wife for Qin?" The queen asked with concern.

Derek would certainly not deny it. Since they had already compromised, they naturally had to spread the news.

Tiona also had ideas, but she knew it was not easy to interfere, so she simply did not mention it.

Derek also knew that his wife would have some selfish motives, but he could not agree with it.

"I know what you mean. You want to choose a noble family in the north or a military family for Qin, but it's not possible." Derek confided his thoughts: "Other sons can choose powerful families, but the crown prince cannot.

Too powerful relatives may not be a good thing.

If you want to choose, choose a humble family, with a virtuous daughter, relatives who can be trained, and no big background."

Too powerful relatives cannot be allowed!

Weak relatives cannot be allowed!

For the next generation of crown prince, the wife's family can be a helper, but they cannot become the host.

The best result is to control it in your hand and use it as a good knife.

In this way, the empire can be stable with the least accidents.
