The Carefree Little Landlord

Fortunate enough to transmigrate, and born into a landlord's family, I will never lack food or clothing in this life, yet I don't want to just drift along. So, Fu Xiaoguan casually did a fe...

Chapter 373 I'll Just Say a Few Words

"I don't want to be this prince, and I don't want to be that stupid prince either. What should I do?"

Nangong Yiyu was shocked, and the teacup in his hand fell to the ground with a "bang..."

Is there anyone in the world who doesn't want to be the crown prince?!

That's the future emperor!

The existence of a nation's ruler!

"If you don't take the throne, who will? Emperor Wen only has one prince left besides you. Yesterday, Your Majesty deposed Wu Gan from the throne, and almost the entire court, both civil and military, opposed this. Don't take it personally; their opposition is simply for the sake of the stability of the Wu Dynasty. If it weren't for the arrival of the Empress Dowager, Your Majesty would have had a hard time resolving this matter."

"Everything Your Majesty has done, and even what the Queen Mother said on your behalf, is paving the way for you!"

"It's precisely because the road has been paved for you, and you've become the only prince in this vast Wu Dynasty who can enter the Eastern Palace, yet you want to quit... Is this really a good idea? You absolutely must not have such thoughts, or I will say something truly unkind: Zhuo Yixing deserves to kill you!"

Fu Xiaoguan didn't expect that just expressing his thoughts would cause the old man to get angry.

This is because he had never thought about how important ministers like Nangong Yiyu were to the inheritance of a country.

In order to ensure the stability of the succession to the throne, Zhuo and his entourage did not hesitate to collude with Yu Wenshu just because of a rumor, in order to nip the hidden danger of Fu Xiaoguan in the bud.

Even when Fu Xiaoguan arrived at the border town, he asked Bei Wangchuan to shoot Fu Xiaoguan with two arrows.

Of course, Empress Xiao was behind this. Her motive was selfish - to let her son Wu Gan ascend the throne as emperor in the future.

Zhuo Yi's actions were public-spirited, and he sought a smooth transfer of imperial power in the future Wu Dynasty.

In such an era, nothing can be more important than the inheritance of imperial power, so Fu Xiaoguan's idea was like a thunderclap to Nangong Yiyu!

Fu Xiaoguan had no choice but to say, "To be honest, I can do things like farming, but being a crown prince, or even an emperor... I'm really not cut out for that!"

"So you need to learn now. Your Majesty is in the prime of his life. If you follow His Majesty, you will naturally learn the ways of governing the country."

"In history... has there ever been a woman who became emperor?" Fu Xiaoguan asked expectantly, because Emperor Wen also had a daughter, Wu Zhao!

Nangong Yiyu's eyes widened. "You've studied the sacred teachings. The wife is the head of the husband. This is the most simple truth. Have you forgotten it? Women will eventually marry, how can they ascend the throne and become emperors? Heaven and earth are divided into yin and yang, the upper part is yang and the lower part is yin. If a woman becomes emperor, do you think the world will be peaceful? This is a world of chaos!"

So the lives of Wu Zhao and Wu Zetian in history were also very difficult.

Fu Xiaoguan took a deep breath. I came here to attend a literary gathering, and I even became the crown prince... Would they dare to write that in a play?

Of course, changing your way of thinking is not always a bad thing.

I used to farm in Linjiang and had thousands of acres of fertile land.

Now, if we farm in the Wu Dynasty, wouldn’t the amount of land in the vast Wu Dynasty be countless?

But being an emperor is not as comfortable as being a salted fish!

When I think about getting up at 3:00 AM every morning and going to court at 5:00 AM, it’s so much harder than working from 9:96 AM - in this day and age, not to mention weekends, even holidays are rare.

There will never be a time to sleep until you wake up naturally, there will never be a time to leisurely drink in Sifang Building, and even wanting to visit Hongxiuzhao or Liuyuntai here will become a luxury.

It sounds nice to say that he is the emperor, but in Fu Xiaoguan's opinion, this is clearly selling everything he has to this country - freedom, health, hobbies, and even getting married and having children.

This sudden incident completely disrupted Fu Xiaoguan's plan for a peaceful life. He invited Nangong Yiyu in for a private talk, just to understand the thoughts of the officials of the Wu Dynasty and what the consequences would be if he did not accept this move.

Now it seems that the consequences are very serious!

He is in the Wu Dynasty!

I can't even run away!

He believed that there must be many people sent by Emperor Wen outside Jinghu Villa. They were nominally there to protect his safety, but they were probably also conducting surveillance.

This is a state machine. Even if he has seven masters from the Taoist temple by his side, he cannot fly out of the border of the Wu Dynasty.

Thinking about it carefully, even if he flew back to the Yu Dynasty, Emperor Xuan would probably tie him up and send him to the Wu Dynasty.

"How about this, do you think it's okay..."

Fu Xiaoguan's mind raced, but before he could say anything, Nangong Yiyu directly denied it, "No need to say anything, it's not okay to say anything now."

"No, don't worry. Emperor Wen is not yet forty, so he can definitely have more children..."

Before he could finish his words, Nangong Yiyu immediately puffed his beard and glared, "Do you think that the entire court, both civil and military officials, have never tried to persuade him?"

He shook his head. "Emperor Wen was a love-struck man. Everyone in the Wu Dynasty knew this. The only person he truly loved was your mother. My daughter was forced into marriage by the Empress Dowager. Is there any other royal family in the world with such a small population as the Wu Dynasty?"

Fu Xiaoguan stopped talking, thinking that if this bad thing got to the ears of Fu Daguan, I hope the fat man would not jump into the river.

They are both fathers, and to be honest, he is very grateful to his father, Fu Daguan.

The fat man's love for him was not false.

I have to write a letter to him quickly, no, I have to write to Bai Yulian, and ask Bai Yulian to send someone to keep an eye on the fat man day and night.

Originally, he wanted to become a decent official in the Yu Dynasty, marry Yu Wenyun, Dong Shulan and Yan Xiaolou, and then retire to the west mountain of Linjiang and Fenglin Mountain, and live a leisurely life with his family, together with Fatty, in a lively and happy atmosphere.

Cultivate the fields in his family well - he is very confident about this. Firstly, with the hybrid rice seeds, the yield of the rice fields will be greatly improved. Secondly, with the magical sweet potato, it will be able to be promoted vigorously in Jiangnan Road next year, and this thing will be spread throughout the Yu Dynasty the year after.

The food problem of the Yu Dynasty could be completely solved, and there would be no more refugees. Those refugees who had gone up the mountain to become bandits would naturally come down the mountain and return to serving the land.

The technology of the red cannon has been accumulated from generation to generation, and the magical artifact of the flintlock rifle is about to be born.

He had a special forces force of 4,000 people at his disposal, and was thinking about how to build warships and go out to sea to rob... Life was so wonderful, but it was crushed to pieces by this sudden disaster!

"I want to see Emperor Wen."

"I think you should meet those ministers outside first. Hiding is not a solution after all."

Fu Xiaoguan looked up at the sky and said, "I haven't had lunch yet!"

He stood up with his hands on the table and strode out.

He stood in the yard, and all the ministers came before him.

"I'll just tell you a few words."

"First, the court's business is more important!"

"Secondly, I need some time for this."

"Third, I'm very hungry. If you don't leave, I'll starve to death in front of you!"
