Hairpin Phoenix

   Chapter 250 Dilemma

  Since his birth, the eldest prince has been favored by his own father and has enjoyed smooth sailing for 20 years.

   In the past few days, he finally tasted the helplessness and bitterness of being in a predicament.

   He also clearly realized that in the past, his scenery and holy family actually came from his own mother. Once Concubine Meng Gui made a mistake, he fell heavily from the heights, and he was not worthy to compete with the second prince.

   "The father is going to make the second younger brother the crown prince." The eldest prince murmured, "I always thought that the father's favorite son was me, and the position of the crown prince should be mine."

   Seeing the miserable appearance of the eldest prince who was severely beaten and lost, the eldest prince and concubine also felt uneasy. He had to open his mouth to comfort: "The second prince is the direct son, and it is reasonable for the father to make him the heir. Your Highness does not need to belittle yourself because of this. In the hearts of the ministers and concubines, His Royal Highness is the best and most outstanding prince in the world."

  What do you think is useful!

  The royal father and the officials did not think so.

   The eldest prince felt like a huge rock was pressed against his heart, and it was difficult to breathe.

   He suddenly stretched out his hand to hold the eldest prince concubine's hand, gritted his teeth and whispered, "I'm not reconciled, Xiao'er, I'm really not reconciled."

   The eldest prince is a martial artist and ranks first among princes in his skills. This sudden force, the hand is quite strong. The eldest princess only felt that the bones of her hand were about to be broken, and she let out a soft cry of pain.

  The eldest prince came to his senses and immediately let go: "I'm sorry, I was excited and hurt you."

   Such thoughtfulness and tenderness have not been seen for a long time.

   It's because Concubine Meng was devastated by the Meng family, so now she has to coax her to coax the Liang family!

   The eldest princess had a slightly sour nose and a complicated feeling in her heart. She said softly, "As long as Your Highness is well, don't be so depressed and let me do whatever I want."

   The eldest prince's eyes were moved, and he took the eldest prince's concubine into his arms: "It is the greatest blessing in my life to be able to marry you as a wife."

   The First Prince replied in a low voice, "Being able to marry His Royal Highness is the blessing that I have cultivated in several lifetimes."

   In the past, I heard touching sweet words, but now it is like a tickling, always like a thick layer.

   However, her husband is still willing to coax her, which is far better than the indifference of the past.

   The eldest prince concubine cheered up and comforted the eldest prince. Such as "forbearance for a while and take a step back from the sea, sky and sky", and "forbearance for the time being for the future" and so on.

The eldest prince's excitement slowly calmed down, and he said in a low voice, "You are right. When the emperor was in his prime, he established the heir, and it would take more than ten or twenty years to pass the throne. It's still a long time. Very. I can't just throw in the towel."

   "Xiao'er, you wait. One day, I will let you put on a phoenix crown and a rosary, sit on the phoenix chair, and the mother will honor the world."

   The first prince concubine felt a rush of heat in her heart and replied softly, "Okay, I'll wait for that day."

  The couple's affection lasted for a moment, and then came back to the moment.

   "The concubine is already awake. You are waiting by the bed, and you can spend more time with your mother." The eldest prince said in a deep voice, "There are children who have just been born, and you have to take care of them."

As soon as the child was mentioned, the eldest prince concubine's mind flashed through the pale face of Yang Gongren with half a body of blood, and she couldn't help shuddering, and said softly: "This is my duty, rest assured, Your Highness, I will take good care of it. child."

   The eldest prince didn't think much of it.

  Everyone in Yanggong died, it doesn't matter what the reason was.

   Concubine Meng was injured so badly, I don't know how long it will take to recover. The child must be brought back to the First Prince's Mansion and raised in the First Prince's Concubine's yard.

  …

   The next day, just before dawn, the eldest prince got up and went to Concubine Meng's bedroom.

   There was a strong bitter medicinal smell in the bedroom.

   After waking up from a coma, Concubine Meng was in severe pain and had to drink Ningshen Decoction. It's better to fall asleep than to be awake.

   At this time, Concubine Meng Gui was awake, and could barely squeeze a few words: "How is it now?"

  The eldest prince didn't dare to tell Concubine Meng Gui's establishment of the heir, for fear that his mother would be so angry that he vomited blood.

  Rao is like this, and Concubine Meng Gui was so angry that she couldn't move her entire body. The most is to tug at the skin, and the expression is stiff and weird.

"Don't be annoyed, concubine mother." The eldest prince whispered quickly: "The father and the emperor did not slap uncle to the end, and he was merciful. Without the title, he will make military achievements in the battlefield in the future, and he will be able to earn it again. As long as the uncle is okay, Okay."

   Concubine Meng twitched the corners of her mouth and spit out a few words: "That's the only way."

   The eldest prince was secretly relieved, and called the eldest prince concubine and Princess Jing'an: "I will go to the morning court. You two, take good care of the mother and concubine. If there is anything unusual, immediately send someone to deliver a letter to me."

  The matter of setting up a reserve should never be mentioned.

   The eldest princess understood and nodded.

  Princess Jing An cried for a few days, her eyes were red and swollen, and her voice was a little hoarse: "Brother, don't worry, go to the morning court. I will take good care of the mother and concubine."

  The eldest prince felt sorry for his younger sister, reached out and touched Princess Jing'an's head, and whispered: "Mother and concubine must take care of her injuries, and don't say anything that shouldn't be said."

   Princess Jing An nodded, indicating that she understood everything.

   Difficulties and setbacks can make people mature and grow up quickly. The encounters in the past few days made Princess Jing An quickly retreat from her innocence, and her mind became heavier than before.

  …

  The eldest prince didn't have time to say any more, and soon left the Yanxi Palace and went to the Golden Palace for the early dynasty.

  The eldest prince came early, and the officials waiting in the hall had to come up to say hello. The attitude is far less hospitable than in the past. There were even a few who didn't come to greet each other at all.

   The eldest prince was annoyed, but he was helpless.

   After a while, several princes came one by one.

   Li Hao obviously hadn't slept well all night, and his eyes were bloodshot. The Fourth Prince was also much more silent than usual.

They knew very well what    means to save money. The ruler and the ministers are in the front, and the brotherhood is behind. The name and righteousness are certain, and when they meet Li Jing, they can meet with the courtesy of the monarch and the minister.

   In short, in this great Wei Dynasty, apart from the Son of Heaven, he was the greatest prince.

   They all have to hold their tails and be honest.

  When Li Jingmai entered the Golden Throne Hall, civil and military officials rushed to greet him. Even the generals who are not very enthusiastic on weekdays are shy with the front cover on their faces.

   This is the important and most direct manifestation of status.

   This scene is dazzling and heart-piercing, but it can’t be avoided.

  The eldest prince was impatient and turned his head away from Li Jing and the other ministers. The sound was like an ocean wave, and one wave after another penetrated into the ears.

   "Congratulations, Your Highness."

   "I heard that the emperor is going to issue an imperial decree today to declare to the world that His Highness will be the heir. This is not only the blessing of the Great Wei, but also the blessing of the officials and the common people."

   "That's right. Your Highness is humble and generous, with a tenacious will, and commands the respect of the ministers."

  Bah!

   A bunch of sycophants!
