Chapter 711: The New Emperor
"Father, my son has already untied this knot, and thank you for saying so much today, but I still hope that you will take care of yourself first, and the country will not be without a king for a day." Tang Junyi said that God will help Qianyuan to rest.
Qian Yuan waved his hand, and smiled helplessly, "It's not that far, but I can't sit in this position anymore, you should know that the person I look up to the most has always been you .You value affection and profit, far from what the outsiders say, you are a child with good temperament and talent, so I still plan to entrust you with this great responsibility." Looking at his appearance, he is somewhat confessing his future
affairs Although Tang Junyi was confident about the throne, when he heard Qian Yuan say this, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. This appearance, as if he was about to explain his funeral, made him feel a little flustered.
"Seeing that Tangtang is about to get married, although her husband is not the person I have always hoped for, he is still a good child. If he can treat Tangtang well for the rest of his life, I can rest assured that the next step is the country. It's something to do, thinking like this, I will let you inherit the throne after they get married." Qian Yuan said, rubbing his temples a little tiredly.
Tang Junyi frowned. In fact, this should be something he had been looking forward to for a long time, but now for some reason, he actually wanted to shirk it. He also wanted to see his father continue to be in this position with high spirits and lead the whole court.
"Actually, I also know why you are handing over Mu Feng's evidence now. It's just an act of anger to influence you. Why do I say that you value love and righteousness? I am your father, and I can see that you care about that Lin Huiru's thoughts, but she is already a married woman after all, if they don't get along, then I can't say anything, but they are like a couple made in heaven, you know, there will be no good results if this continues "As Qian Yuan was talking, he suddenly closed his mouth again, and shook his head helplessly, "Forget it, forget it, you still have to look at the emotional matter, you go down first, I want to stay by myself for a while to rest Rest."
...
In a blink of an eye, this peaceful and peaceful winter passed very quickly, and soon came the spring when everything recovered. Although Lin Huiru's belly was getting bigger every day, the naked eye could feel the change, but it was actually very small. Even as long as she puts on her clothes, she can't tell that she is a pregnant woman.
After Xu Ziqiao got up that day, she heard Lin Huiru complaining all the time.
"It would be nice if it was still winter. Now that the weather is getting warmer little by little, if I wear those thin dresses, my belly will be very obvious, as if I'm holding a ball. It's so ugly. "Lin Huiru stood in front of the mirror, turned around with his hands on his stomach, and muttered while frowning.
Xu Ziqiao smiled helplessly, and went forward to hug Lin Huiru into her arms, "You see, you are already eight months pregnant, but if you randomly pick out someone on the street, at most you will think that you just paid back the money." It's been four or five months, it's just such a small belly, it will recover soon after you give birth, and you can still wear delicate dresses." Xu Ziqiao didn't say these words just to please her
. , but Lin Huiru's body was already slender and thin, and she didn't gain much weight after pregnancy, at most she just had a bigger belly.
Lin Huiru nodded helplessly, "It's the same reason, I just hope he comes out of my stomach sooner, and I still want to fly a kite in the wild with Princess Anning." After hearing her words, Xu Ziqiao suddenly
squatted Come down and pat her stomach lightly, "Did you hear that, little guy? Your mother wants you to come out soon." "How could
he hear you, okay, okay, it's getting late, If you don't go to court, I'm afraid it will be too late." Lin Huiru helplessly urged Xu Ziqiao to finish breakfast at the dining table, and then watched him leave the prime minister's mansion with his own eyes.
Since she became pregnant, Lin Huiru gradually got used to it, except for the irritability of not being able to go out a few days ago. She began to learn to cultivate herself and stay in the mansion. She studied food and desserts last night.
Princess Anning is like an ant, who is sensitive to sweetness and can't be more sensitive. It just so happens that every time Lin Huiru washes her hands and does something, she can come here accurately.
This time, Lin Huiru also saw Princess Anning bouncing around bringing large and small gifts when the cake was just baked.
"Miss Xiaoru, I came to see you. How are you doing? Is my little nephew obedient? Look, I have prepared so many small clothes for him, which are enough for him to wear until he is two or three years old." Princess An Ning stepped forward to touch her. Touch Lin Huiru's belly.
Lin Huiru stood up helplessly, "Do you really believe what the imperial physician said, that he is a boy? You have prepared so many clothes, even if he is four or five years old, he may not think too few." "The imperial physician is very powerful. He has
never I didn't say I missed it, I can't have too many things like clothes, he is my little nephew, even if I wear one and throw one away, I don't mind." Princess An Ning narrowed her eyes and smiled.
"Okay, you wait here and I'll get you something to eat." Lin Huiru got up and went out. Obediently waited on the stool.
But after Lin Huiru went out, her stomach began to harden intermittently, which made her feel a little bit reluctant to rest on the porch.
"Stop being naughty, your aunt is coming to see you again today, so don't let her wait there for too long." Lin Huiru suddenly felt a little more comfortable in her stomach as she spoke, but the next moment she felt a burst of pain The invasion came.
No, this is about to give birth, right?!
Lin Huiru's head buzzed, and just as she was about to call someone, Bai Shu ran over in a panic, "Ma'am, what's wrong with you? Is there something wrong?" Are you comfortable?"
But the next moment she saw the looming red on Lin Huiru's skirt, she was stunned, "Ma'am, you are about to give birth! Don't move around, I will go to the midwife!" The most pregnant woman in
October The fine point is nothing more than this moment, Bai Shu ran out in a panic to ask for help, he was a little at a loss, and almost confused himself, but fortunately, the preparations went very smoothly, because the approaching During the delivery period, Xu Ziqiao specially invited a well-known stable woman in the capital to live directly in the mansion.
After Princess Anning heard that Bai Shu said that Lin Huiru was about to give birth, her expression was also very pleasantly surprised, and the whole Xiangfu became busy again.
Chapter 712 Little Tuanzi
Although Lin Huiru had been prepared for a long time, Lin Huiru was born. Suddenly, the prime minister's mansion became busy, and all the servants gathered in the hospital, waiting for orders. From time to time, there were painful cries from Lin Huiru in the yard.
Lin Huiru was lying on the bed, feeling as if a knife was stabbing her stomach continuously, but now she suddenly regretted it.
Wanting to give birth to a child in ancient times, the pain had to be endured abruptly. Without advanced medicine, giving birth to a child was like walking through the gate of hell. She understood the true meaning of this sentence.
Fortunately, this stable woman has rich experience and helped Lin Huiru give birth to a fat man who weighed seven catties very quickly.
Waiting for her to give birth was too exhausted to speak, and sweat still soaked her clothes and sheets. Wen Po took the child out, and then happily informed them that they could come in to visit Lin Huiru.
Xu Ziqiao is indeed a good husband, and he didn't care too much about the child's situation, so he went straight to Lin Huiru's side first. Regardless of the sweat on Lin Huiru's hands, he turned around and put it on his lips and kissed gently, "It's hard work!" Do you still hurt?"
Lin Huiru gritted her teeth and nodded, it hurts, why can't it hurt, "I will never have a child again." "
Okay, no more, this one is enough , I will never let you suffer this again in the future, I will change your clothes for you, and you should rest well first." Xu Ziqiao was full of distress, hugged Lin Huiru and kissed again and again, and then watched her sleep with her own eyes In the past, I left the room with confidence.
Six months passed in a blink of an eye, and Lin Huiru's body had almost recovered, exactly the same as before she was pregnant, and she couldn't even tell from her figure that she was a mother who had given birth to a child.
Now that the hot summer has just passed, and Princess Anning's wedding is approaching, Lin Huiru inevitably has to start preparing.
After all, this was the marriage of the only princess in a country. Besides, Princess Anning was still the emperor's favorite. The wedding was unprecedentedly grand, and basically the entire capital city became lively.
The overwhelming red silk was even more festive than during the Chinese New Year. The musicians played in the city all day, and even pardoned some prisoners, and opened the treasury to give out porridge to share with the people.
Such a vast scene can be described as the first time since the founding of the People's Republic of China.
In the princess mansion, Princess Anning put on makeup, and finally squeezed the red paper. Before putting on the hijab, she suddenly reached out and grabbed Lin Huiru's arm, "Miss Xiaoru...I'm nervous." Lin Huiru smiled
helplessly She smiled, waved her hand and asked Xi Po to stand aside first, "Why are you nervous? For so long, isn't today what you've been looking forward to for the stars and the moon? After today, you'll be green Now that your wife is gone, the two of you can get tired of being together every day, aren't you happy?"
Princess Anning shook her head hastily, and bit her lower lip again, "That's not what I mean, it's that there are so many people outside, I I didn't learn the etiquette well before I got it, Xi Po taught me so much, I didn't remember any of it, what should I do if I make a fool of myself?" "Why don't
you accompany me and remind me, okay?" Princess Anning He clenched Lin Huiru's arms tightly, and his eyes were pitiful.
"No." Lin Huiru frowned, this is not a trivial matter, how could she let her do whatever she wanted.
But thinking about it carefully, in fact, he has never experienced such a big scene. After timetraveling, she has become a married woman, because Xu Ziqiao promised to make up for her, but she is also embarrassed. Get married again.
If she had to face such a big scene, she would probably sweat from nervousness and be at a loss.
"It's okay, and Xi Po will accompany you all the way. She will quietly remind you of what to do and what not to do. In fact, I have seen the process. Most of the time, you don't need to talk. It's enough to salute and go through a few cutscenes, and the most important thing is Qingwu's side." Lin Huiru raised her hand and touched Princess Anning's head and comforted her.
Seeing that Xi Po smiled and nodded kindly, Princess Anning hesitated for a while, but could only agree.
"Ma'am, the son-in-law and your lord are almost here, how are the princess's preparations?" Bai Shu also pushed the door open at this time and asked in a low voice.
"Okay, okay, it's ready." Lin Huiru and Princess Anning exchanged a look, and opened the hijab for her with her own hands.
Next, although Princess An Ning was nervous, but fortunately the process went very smoothly. I have to say that Xi Po next to her must be responsible for it.
It was also a rare and lively time in the palace. The royal family, Li Yifan and Su Guang, basically tossed and tossed from morning to night after going through these processes.
She was lying on the table ready to rest for a while, but we stared at her closely in the distance, and the owner of the gaze had been drinking there for a long time.
The owner of this gaze must be Tang Junyi, and today his sister is getting married. Although his relationship with Princess Anning is not particularly good, this little girl has left him many warm memories in his memory. Although she is not her own sister, she is better than her own sister.
However, he was not melancholy because of this, but according to what Qian Yuan said, as long as Princess Anning got married, he would be ready to abdicate in a few months. During this period, he had been preparing for the registration, but Not many people know the secret of this matter.
Now that he has taken over this heavy responsibility, it is bound to be impossible for him to have other thoughts about Lin Huiru.
It's ridiculous to think about it. He always thought that he had a deep affection for Lin Huiru, but he didn't expect that Lin Huiru still lost to the importance of the throne.
He should have thought about some things.
"Brother Huang. Let's go have a drink with the son-in-law too." Just when Tang Junyi was feeling melancholy, Tang Jingyuan suddenly walked over with a wine glass in his hand.
Tang Junyi raised his eyes to look at him, and he could vaguely see a hint of calculation in Tang Jingyuan's gaze. Among the brothers, he was that person, and he could tell at a glance what other people thought.
But he still agreed for the first time, "Okay, I can't let a proton marry Tangtang so easily."
The two got up together, but they walked farther and farther in tacit understanding, and the direction they went was not at all. Where Qingwu drank, he went to a remote place in the palace.
Tang Jingyuan followed Tang Junyisheng silently, holding the cup tightly in his hand because of nervousness. Suddenly he staggered and almost bumped into Tang Junyi, "I didn't pay attention to my feet, I'm sorry, brother."
Chapter 713
Tang Junyi stretched out his hand to help him, his eyes were a little deep, "It's okay."
When he got to the side of the man-made lake in the palace, Tang Jingyuan's steps suddenly stopped, he turned around and looked at the pool water reflecting the moonlight, feeling quite emotional With a long sigh, "I didn't expect time to pass so fast. I vaguely felt that Tangtang was the little sister who was always around us, calling the emperor and asking for sweets. I didn't expect that she would be so soon. Married."
"It's only a moment for a girl to grow up, and it's something she must experience." Tang Junyi looked at the wine glass in his hand, his eyes deepened.
"Let's not talk about it. Drinking at the bar, there are too many people in front of you, and it's noisy. Thinking about it, we two brothers rarely have the opportunity to sit together and drink and watch the moon. We might as well have a good drink outside before going back." Tang Jingyuan turned around. He stood up, raised his hand to raise his glass as a signal, and the next moment he drank all the wine in the glass in one gulp.
Tang Junyi didn't say anything, just looked at him straight.
Facing Tang Junyi's gaze, Tang Jingyuan seemed a little guilty, "Why don't you drink, brother?"
"You should know why I don't drink." Tang Junyi smiled. His temper has improved a lot during this period of time. After mentioning the previous words, Tang Jingyuan would throw the cup directly in his face as early as when Tang Jingyuan was doing his hands and feet.
In fact, he knew everything. What Tang Jingyuan did just now was nothing more than deliberate, that is, the moment he turned his head to help, Tang Jingyuan's finger touched his wine. If he guessed correctly, there must be something on that finger. Poisoned.
This was based on his intuition, and also because Tang Jingyuan's anomaly tonight made him realize that the roads in the palace are always smooth, if he didn't have other things on his mind, how could he possibly stumble?
Tang Jingyuan's expression froze for a moment, and he wanted to continue trying to get away with it, "Brother Huang, what do you mean? Are you afraid that I will poison the wine? It's your own wine glass." "It's not like you haven't touched it before, and if
you If you weren't guilty of being a thief, why would you realize this?" Tang Junyi poured the wine aside, and smiled with sinister eyes.
Now that Tang Jingyuan was exposed, he couldn't help but feel a little dumbfounded.
"I know you mixed something in your wine, and you deliberately took me all the way to the water's edge, probably because you wanted to create the illusion that I drank too much and fell into the water." Tang Junyi raised his eyebrows "If you want to prove your innocence, you might as well put the finger you put into my wine glass just now and lick it in your mouth." Of course
Tang Jingyuan couldn't do this kind of thing, and he was deadlocked for a long time. Looking around, there is no one else here. "How did you know?"
"It's a kind of intuition. I'm more curious at that time. You have endured it for so long, why can't you resist doing it at Tang Tang's wedding? Although she is not my biological sister , but you are the same father and mother, don't you worry that she will suffer because of it?" Tang Junyi narrowed his eyes, and threw the wine glass into the lake.
Tang Jingyuan sneered, and didn't want to continue talking. He turned around and left here when there was no one around. Now that it's been exposed, Tang Jingyuan doesn't know any extreme ways to get back at him.
In fact, he still felt very guilty in his heart today. The reason why he chose this day was not because he wanted to find a suitable reason. He really fabricated the illusion that Tang Junyi himself fell into the lake and died.
But I didn't expect Tang Junyi to be so vigilant, and she found out about this wedding at the first time, and she couldn't stay any longer. After returning, she fabricated a reason for feeling unwell, and her departure also caused Qianyuan and the queen to be extremely unhappy.
After Lin Huiru rested, she went to the palace where Princess Anning rested temporarily. She also brought her some food, just because she was afraid that Princess Anning would be bored there.
"Hurry up and eat something. You probably haven't eaten for a whole day. If you are hungry, you will be in trouble." Lin Huiru handed over the pastry. Thinking about it, Princess Anning had to eat several meals a day. What about the food?
Sometimes he even suspected that Princess Anning was a starving ghost in her previous life.
After Princess Anning took the snack, she started to gobble it up, and she was not worried about ruining the makeup on her lips, "I'm afraid if you imagine that the moon has brought you here, it's really boring to death here, I don't know when I'll be able to get married and go to bed."
"It's going to be very late for an appointment, and the banquet hasn't started yet, but it's coming soon, I'll have to go back quickly after I've delivered your food, remember to hide it after you've eaten Get up, and touch up the makeup on your lips." Lin Huiru sighed helplessly, knelt down and carefully looked at the makeup on Princess Anning's face, and handed over a lipstick after confirming that there was nothing wrong.
Princess An Ning nodded, a little reluctant, "Then you go!"
Walking back to the big shop, Lin Huiru suddenly felt that someone had patted her on the shoulder, which made her hairs explode in fright. , turned his head, and saw Tang Junyi.
For Tang Junyi, she still had to be wary, "What are you doing here?"
"Don't think too much, I just happened to pass by." Tang Jun saw that he was so vigilant and felt a little pain in his heart, and turned his head to look again. He glanced at the palace where Princess Anning was.
"So that's the case, please come back soon, Your Highness, the banquet is about to start." Lin Huiru breathed a sigh of relief when she was young, then turned her head away, and was anxious to go back again.
"Aren't you even willing to talk to me for a while?" Tang Junyi stood there and frowned at her.
Lin Huiru couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, "Is there anything else to say between us? You lied to me again and again, and even wanted to shoot Xu Ziqiao. Now we can still say a word calmly, just It's pretty good."
"I know that those things before were all my fault, and I want to beat you up now, but I actually want to apologize to you, don't worry, I won't treat you two again in the future. It's shot." Tang Junyi said as he stepped forward two steps to keep up with Lin Huiru's pace.
Lin Huiru turned her head a little strangely. Could it be that today's Tang Junyi took the wrong medicine and failed, "Do you want to open it?"
"Not really, but I suddenly feel that there is no grass anywhere in the world, why bother to fall in love with a single flower. There are some things that I don't want to hide from you. When I just came back, my father had already intended to pass on the throne to this king. Now that imperial edict It should even be in the hands of the eunuch in charge. So it might as well need the strong support of Master Xu now, even if Master Xu does not support it, His Majesty has already made such a decision." Tang Junyi changed his title, which made Lin Huiru a little uncomfortable adapt.
"It's useless for you to tell me about this matter. It's better to tell him in person." Lin Huiru frowned, not too surprised that Tang Junyi would succeed to the throne.
Chapter 714
Tang Junyi smiled and nodded, now that he can say a word in such a peaceful manner, it can be regarded as a bit of comfort in his heart, "Since we met tonight, let's say hello first, and tomorrow the king will come to the door in person to explain all the previous things. Sorry."
After speaking, Tang Junyi took a step forward, leaving Lin Huiru standing there in a daze.
What Lin Huiru never expected was to spend a whole night at Princess Anning's wedding. It was almost early morning when they returned, and before they woke up naturally, Tang Junyi actually came.
Xu Ziqiao still didn't understand why Tang Junyi came at this time. Lin Huiru just slapped her head and remembered that she forgot to tell Xu Ziqiao what Tang Junyi told her last night.
While putting on his clothes, Xu Ziqiao listened to Lin Huiru finish talking about what happened last night, he couldn't help frowning and sighing, after all, there is still a day to shake hands and make peace.
Lin Huiru was busy coaxing Xiaotuanzi, so Xu Ziqiao and Tang Junyi were bored in the study for a whole noon.
After talking about all the politics, Xu Ziqiao's eyes were a little dark.
Tang Junyi's changes were really fast. If Tang Junyi hadn't been sitting in front of him, he would have even wondered if someone was impersonating him.
"Now that the father is about to hand over to Datong, those gangsters can't ignore the high-spirited teenagers. Some things have been calmed down and thought about it. I think it's better to talk to you." Tang Junyi said. He lowered his eyes and bowed.
"The new emperor needs to have a right-hand man to succeed. I hope Mr. Xu can ignore the past and put the world first." Xu Ziqiao
frowned, "You are threatening me."
"That's not the case, what's the situation?" , both of you and I are very clear that if you want to wipe out those who are still in the pure land of Chaotang with you, only you and I will join hands, and if this king needs to prove his sincerity, then I can give you the right to be a regency in the future." Tang Junyi's words were sincere.
In fact, after he could calm down and think about it carefully, Xu Ziqiao was indeed a rare and virtuous minister, even if he held a lot of power, there was no suspense of taking credit for it.
Now that Qianyuan is in power, he holds all the important things in his hands, but when the court is in chaos, he only devotes himself to assisting the king. The heart of this courtier is rare.
After thinking for a long time, Xu Ziqiao decided whether Tang Junyi had a new strategy or what, but if he could really be a wise monarch from now on, that would be a good thing.
"It's too early to say these things now. Let me consider this matter when His Majesty really becomes your Highness's word." To be on the safe side, Xu Ziqiao postponed it for the time being, and then personally sent Tang Tang Junyi out.
...
In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed, and Qian Yuan had indeed passed on the throne to Tang Junyi as said, and this incident caught the speculation of many ministers in the court for a while.
On the contrary, Tang Jingyuan was punished with house arrest after Tang Junyi succeeded to the throne. That was when he wanted to murder Manager Tang, but he never expected that the position of emperor had already been decided by Qianyuan.
And Tang Junyi's intentions are already very obvious, at least after he ascended the throne, he did all wise things, so Xu Ziqiao agreed to help him wholeheartedly.
In addition to these, Xu Ziqiao also worried about whether Tang Junyi would take this opportunity to get closer to Lin Huiru.
But Tang Junyi proposed to adopt Xiaotuanzi as a foster son at this time.
"Why did you do this?" Xu Ziqiao was extremely puzzled. How could anyone recognize the son of a rival in love as the adopted son?
Tang Junyi smiled, "Why are you nervous? If you weren't the king at the beginning, it is not certain whether you will report this son or not. I think it is not an exaggeration to regard him as a adopted son." Xu Ziqiao was a little dumb, although it was
indeed This principle, but there seems to be a knot in his heart, after all, Tang Junyi will not do things without a reason.
"I'm not joking with you. Now everyone in the court suspects that you were at odds with me before, and now you are so obedient. Could it be that you have some conspiracy? Now I accept your son as a translator. I don't attack those rumors either. It's self-defeating." Tang Junyi even drew up an imperial decree as he spoke.
Because Tang Junyi gave him too much power, Xu Ziqiao was impeached every day, or he was trying to catch him, and there were countless such things.
What Tang Junyi did now was nothing more than a relief for Xu Ziqiao. Although on the surface it seemed that he was making compromises with Xu Ziqiao, in fact, doing so would help maintain the balance of the court.
In desperation, Xu Ziqiao could only nod in agreement.
...
But after returning home, Lin Huiru said: "Then you say that our son's adoptive father is the current emperor, so what are we?"
Xu Ziqiao was worried that Lin Huiru would think too much, but facing Lin Huiru When he asked a question, he couldn't help but laugh, "It shouldn't matter to us. If you are not satisfied with your current status, why don't I go and ask for a first-class title for you?" "No, no, too many
things Now, I don't dare to take it in case I have to play at that time. But it's good, our son can have such a solid backstage, which is also reassuring." Lin Huiru smiled and rubbed Xiaotuanzi's head in his arms.
The current Xiaotuanzi is only over a year old, and apart from being able to babble and call her mother, her eyes are all blank.
As expected, when Xiaotuanzi became Tang Junyi's adoptive son, those voices in the court who questioned Xu Ziqiao were suppressed.
And Xu Ziqiao's status is also better than before. Now it can be said that one person is under one person and above ten thousand people. With the joint approval of Qian Yuan and Tang Junyi, his status in the court is almost unshakable. Those who had chosen to turn their backs on Xu Ziqiao regretted it.
But what frustrates Lin Huiru the most is that although their status is unshakable now, no matter where they go, there are always people coddling and coddling, but the feeling of being respected and kept at a distance while walking on the street is really uncomfortable. wonderful.
What he knew was that his status was noble, but what he didn't know, he probably thought she had some kind of infectious disease.
"Miss Xiaoru, if I don't agree, how can Xiaotuanzi recognize Brother Huang as his adoptive father, I want to be his foster mother, I want to be his foster mother!" Princess An Ning has thought this matter has caused trouble for many times. .
Lin Huiru was really helpless, her little dumpling was only one year old, so why did she have to have so many extra parents?
"Now that His Majesty is Xiaotuanzi's adoptive father, if you want to be a adoptive mother again, wouldn't it be weird?" Lin Huiru asked helplessly.
Originally, Princess Anning was choked by Lin Huiru's question, but what she never expected was that Qingwu strode in with a rattle in her hand, "So what? Then just let me If you are a adoptive father, isn't Tangtang a logical adoptive mother?"
Lin Huiru was a little dumbfounded, the emperor is the adoptive father, the son-in-law is also the adoptive father, the queen is the adoptive mother, and the princess... Princess Abu is also the adoptive mother , her little group, the future is unpredictable.
