155, Chapter 155

As Shen Lixian finished speaking, there was silence in the imperial study room. Shen Lixian was probably the only one who said such a thing, and the emperor was not angry at him.

The child's identity is embarrassing, which means that the incident was absurd.

The emperor's face quickly darkened. But Shen Lixian was not afraid. He looked directly at the emperor: "Your Majesty, my sister sent the child away at the cost of her own life. She must not want the child to live in such an embarrassing status. She must want the child to live a safe and happy life. . My Shen family dare not say it is so valuable, but if he is my legitimate son, even if he is a relative of the Shen family, he will be safe, happy, carefree, and a leisurely son of aristocratic family for the rest of his life. Worrying about life, identity, and money.”

The emperor was indifferent.

Shen Lixian added: "If the capital is not suitable for him to live, I can find a wealthy place. Even my Shen family can return to my ancestral home and never appear in the capital again." Because the child's identity is embarrassing, if he is in the capital, if his identity is Exposure will inevitably cause unnecessary ruthlessness. For the Shen family, they are prosperous enough. No matter how great the honor is, it is just their children ascending the throne. However, as victims of the imperial power, they don't care about being relatives of the emperor at all.

After Shen Lixian finished speaking, he knelt down to the emperor and said, "Please, Your Majesty."

The emperor stared at Shen Lixian, and then smiled: "Lixian, if I can't let this child inherit my throne, what's the point of me launching a palace coup and seizing the throne?"

Shen Lixian panicked: "Your Majesty, please be careful what you say."

"Be careful?" The emperor laughed loudly, "My father took away my wife, but my father did not punish the mastermind of this matter. Li Xian, this is the revenge for taking away my wife, just like the revenge for killing my father, no I understand Dai Tian. I once thought that as long as Li Ling could come back to me, the rebellion would be over, so what? But the moment I succeeded, I thought we could be together forever. At that moment, she died, she committed suicide." The emperor's voice choked up, "Even though the imperial power is high, even though I am a prince, I can't protect my beloved woman. But I can't protect her anymore. I can't connect us. Even my children can't protect me. He is my legitimate son, and everything I have should be his. This is the only way I can tell Li Ling that I love her."

Shen Lixian was silent because he could see that the emperor was very persistent about this matter. He knew that the emperor and his sister had a deep relationship. Even before his sister passed away, as a prince, his backyard was clean. Later, in order to seize the legitimate heir, he had a woman in his backyard and began to win over ministers.

However, his sister is already dead. Even if the emperor uses his country to make up for it, his sister will not survive. In his opinion, the best thing for his sister is to let the child live a good life. But once the child's identity is restored, the struggle for rights is about to begin. Will he be able to do well?

However, the emperor refused to listen.

"Okay." The emperor's face calmed down, "I know this in my heart. Even if what you say makes sense, can you guarantee that the child will be safe after his identity is revealed? Li Xian, everyone He is born with his own destiny. Since he is my son, he has to shoulder this identity. Needless to say, finding the child is the most important thing. As for his identity, don't worry, since I want to take him. If you find him, I will make him the crown prince. I will naturally make arrangements for his identity."

Shen Lixian asked: "How does the emperor want to arrange it?"

The emperor said: "I will make arrangements. He is my son who lives among the people. His biological mother is my V. When we were princes, we went out to relax. Now that his biological mother has passed away, I will naturally take him back. After taking him back, he will remember In the name of Li Ling.”

Shen Lixian closed his eyes and sighed: "As ordered." Now is not the time to argue with the emperor, it is more important to find the child. Knowing that my sister V is alive in this world, my parents will definitely be happy.

After Shen Lixian left the palace, he returned directly to the Marquis Chengen's Mansion.

As Shen Lixian expected, when Chengenhou and his wife found out that Queen Shen was still alive, they were so excited that they almost burst into tears. Chengenhou still had some sense, so he asked: "Why did the emperor suddenly tell you this matter?"

Shen Lixian said: "The emperor has plans for the child..." He talked about this plan and the emperor's unwillingness to make the child a prince.

"No." Chengenhou immediately refused, with a harsh tone that startled Mrs. Chengenhou.

Mrs. Chengen Hou said: "Master Hou, why can't it be done? Our grandson is the legitimate son, so it is not an exaggeration to make him the prince." She did not want her grandson to be the prince, but she was simply confused.

Marquis Chengen said: "The imperial concubine dominates the harem with one hand, and the Ren family is full of wings. If the grandson is recalled at this time and is established as the prince, not only the Ren family will deal with the grandson, but also the Shen family. Even if I am not afraid of the Ren family, but the child We can't guard against it in the palace. Furthermore, even if the grandson is recorded in his daughter's name, it will not change that he is the emperor's illegitimate son who was romantically involved. If he is established as a prince, all the princes in the dynasty will be gone. "

After hearing this, Mrs. Chengenhou also felt that it made sense: "What about the child?"

Marquis Cheng'en thought for a moment and said to his son, "The emperor asked you to find the child for the sake of the child's safety. After all, in this world, only our Shen family will treat children sincerely. If you find the child, don't tell the emperor first. Observe the child's current situation. If... if the child is doing well, just pretend that you have never found him. You don't need to tell the emperor about the unpleasant things that happen later. Only we know about the child's existence."

After hearing this, the wife of Marquis Cheng'en's eyes were red again: "Marquis, do you mean that we don't recognize the child?" That is the only flesh and blood of my daughter. If I don't recognize the child, are you going to dig out her heart?

Marquis Cheng'en sighed: "Madam, some unkindness is not something we can decide. If the child lives well, maybe the outside world is suitable for him. If the child does not live well, we can also secretly entrust the child to someone else. Anyway, he will not live a bad life under our care. When we are gone, Lixian will also be gone, and the child will grow up, we don't have to worry about it."

Marquis Cheng'en's wife: "But...but I am heartbroken."

Marquis Cheng'en: "We can secretly visit him from a distance. Nothing is more important than him living well."

Marquis Cheng'en's meaning is what Shen Lixian meant. Indeed, if the child is taken to the Shen family, if the child looks like the emperor in the future, it will be easy to recognize him. It would be bad if his life experience is dug out. Therefore, it is best to raise him outside and entrust him to a good family. After all, they are watching over him, so there is no need to worry about the child living a bad life. "Yes, I understand. Don't worry, father. I will arrange it."

Marquis Cheng'en patted his son's shoulder: "Thank you for your hard work."

Du Mansion

Du Ke came out of the palace, but did not go to the Ministry of War, but went home directly. Lord Du is usually diligent and is basically in the Ministry of War all day long. Why not go today? Because today Qin Fang sent memorials and potato flour and sweet potato flour to the palace. Lord Du thought narcissistically. With his relationship with Qin Fang, Qin Fang would definitely send him some potato flour and sweet potato flour, right?

Lord Du is not rare about these things, but just an idea in his mind. Moreover, he knows the situation of joining the agency, which will make him very curious about the taste of potato and sweet potato flour.

Speaking of which, why didn't the emperor ask him to have lunch together today?

Lord Du returned home with expectation and doubt. When he arrived at the door, he did not go in directly, but asked the guard at the door: "Is Taoshan here?" Taoshan was the one who delivered the letter in the previous two times, and Lord Du subconsciously asked Taoshan this time.

The guard said: "Lord, you are very smart. Brother Taoshan is here. He brought two bags of things. The housekeeper has already entertained him. Because Taoshan said that this time it is not urgent, he did not go to the government office to invite you back."

Du Ke wanted to say that it was not his smartness, but that normal people would think of it. But Lord Du also wanted to save face, so he naturally would not say such words. Therefore, Lord Du, who maintained his image of being smart, went into the house.

When housekeeper Du knew that the master had returned, he came out immediately: "Master."

Master Du nodded: "Where are the things?"

Housekeeper Du: "Master, you are wise. The gift from General Qin sent by Tao Shan has been placed in the study, but the letter is still with Tao Shan. He wants to hand it to you personally."

Master Du: "Go and invite him. I'll go to the study. By the way, invite the old man, the old lady and the lady to the study."

Housekeeper Du: "Yes."

When Master Du returned to the study, the first thing he did was to open the two sacks in the study. Master Du was very satisfied when he saw that the two sacks were the same size as the two in the palace. He felt that Qin Fang still had a conscience and had not forgotten his master until he got close to the emperor.

Deep down, Master Du had already regarded Qin Fang as his apprentice. Although it was not so exaggerated, he really had a good impression of Qin Fang and had a very good impression of Qin Fang. He was born in a noble family, and his identity and means were not lacking. The only thing he lacked was simplicity. But in Qin Fang, he saw simplicity, the kind of simplicity that is easily satisfied.

Lord Du dipped his fingers in potato flour and sweet potato flour, and felt a strong sense of pride in his heart. This Qin Fang is really good. He asked them to make this kind of flour. Moreover, it is no different from flour, and the powder is so fine.

Lord Du tasted potato flour and sweet potato flour. Whether it is potato flour or sweet potato flour, they are tasteless. But potato flour is delicate and white, while sweet potato flour is a little transparent. In short, it is different from flour.

Soon, Tao Shan came: "Tao Shan meets you. Sir, this is the letter from the general to you." Tao Shan took out a thick stack of letters.

Before today, if Lord Du received such a thick letter, he would definitely complain again, but today in the imperial study, he read Qin Fang's memorial, and suddenly he didn't dislike this thick letter.
