Gu Xinglang came back from the other courtyard, feeling very worried. However, after being disturbed by Yu Xiaoxiao and a few other children at night and watching the usual scene of Xiaozhuang and Miss Qian fighting for their son, Young Master Gu forgot about the other courtyard again. ..
Yu Xiaoxiao was packing her luggage and preparing to leave. That night, Emperor Xianzong received a letter from Concubine Yu of Suzaku. Of the nine brothers of Emperor Xianzong, only Emperor Xianzong, Prince Rui, and Prince Yu survived the battle for the throne. Among the daughters of the late emperor, only Princess Fuhui, who married Suzaku at the age of twelve, was still alive.
Xianzong read the letter from Concubine Yu at a glance. It turned out that the 50th birthday of Emperor Suzaku Li Xiaoyuan was coming up. Concubine Yu didn't say clearly in the letter what she wanted you to do, but Xianzong could understand that the 50th birthday should be celebrated in a big way. Besides, 50 is the age of knowing the destiny. Li Xiaoyuan has never been appointed, but he is over half of his age. Who will be the successor? No matter how unwilling Li Xiaoyuan is to accept his old age, he has to decide. Concubine Yu gave birth to one. Xianzong put the family letter on the imperial desk and pointed at it from time to time. His sister wants the support of her family.
"Go and ask Prince Xuanrui and Prince Yu to enter the palace," Xianzong said to Qinghai who was standing nearby.
The palaces of Prince Rui and Prince Yu were not far from the Imperial Palace, so the two princes entered the palace very quickly. Being called into the palace in the middle of the night, the two princes were both wondering why Old Fourth Yu had been busy with government affairs these days. Was he feeling unbalanced after seeing the two of them eating and doing nothing all day?
After receiving the great gifts from the two princes, Xianzong threw his sister's letter into Prince Rui's hands and said, "This is a letter from my younger sister. Please take a look."
Prince Rui and Concubine Yu are brothers from the same mother. When Prince Rui heard that his sister, whom he had not heard from for years, had sent him a letter, he immediately read it.
Prince Yu stood beside Prince Rui, glanced at the letter, and said, "She still wants her son to be the emperor? Your Majesty, is Fuhui crazy?"
Xianzong said, "Just speak, don't curse."
Prince Yu said impatiently, "Li Xiaoyuan's queen is the princess of Zhuri, and the emperor's biological mother is the eldest princess of Qinglong. How did Fuhui see that? Can we help her? I heard that among Li Xiaoyuan's favorite concubines, there are several daughters of powerful officials. Your Majesty, if we empty the national treasury and give gifts to Li Xiaoyuan, will Li Xiaoyuan look at Fuhui's daughter more?"
Xianzong looked at Prince Rui.
Prince Yu said, "Anyway, if you send me a gift again this time, I won't go. When Li Xiaoyuan was ten years old, I went to give him a gift and he almost dug a dog hole for me to crawl into. I don't want to suffer this humiliation again."
Xianzong then looked at Prince Yu again and said, "You don't want to go? Then I will go? Or do you want to choose one of my sons?"
Prince Yu said, "Go, Fifth Brother. Fuhui and he have the same mother."
Xianzong asked his fifth brother, "Old Fifth, what do you say?"
Prince Rui put the letter down and said, "Your Majesty, do you want me to crawl into Li Xiaoyuan's dog hole?"
Prince Yu immediately responded: "Li Xiaoyuan looks down on us Fengtian. Let me tell you. Your Majesty, just pretend you didn't receive this letter."
Xianzong said, "Didn't you receive it? Once Suzaku sends the letter, won't we still have to send someone?"
Prince Yu blinked and said, "Then how much gift are you going to give, Your Majesty?"
Xianzong spread his hands and said, "I have no money now."
Xianzong really had no money at the time and was preparing for a war. Where did he get the spare money to give it away as a birthday gift?
Prince Yu asked, "What does His Majesty mean?"
Xianzong said: "Fuhui is not my sister alone, you two should also give birthday gifts, right?"
Prince Rui and Prince Yu were silent. It turned out that Yu Lao Si had this idea of calling them into the palace in the middle of the night! The emperor had no money, so how could they, the princes, be rich?
"You have to do more, Lao Wu," Xianzong said to Prince Rui, "Fuhui and you have the same mother."
Prince Rui said calmly, "Aren't your Majesty and your brothers all the sons of the Empress?"
Xianzong was choked by Prince Rui. No matter which concubine gave birth to his brothers, they had to call his mother "Queen Mother" when they saw him. What Yu Laowu said was right.
Prince Yu scratched his head as if he was itching, and said, "Your Majesty, no matter how expensive the gift is, Li Xiaoyuan will not appreciate it. We can just give him some silver."
"You're sending beggars away?" Prince Rui said, "Li Xiaoyuan has been trying to destroy Fengtian for a long time. Are you giving him an excuse to send troops?"
"That won't work," Xianzong hurriedly shook his head. He was joking. He was annoyed with Mo Wen at the moment. If Li Xiaoyuan came again, he would definitely not be able to bear it.
"What should we do?" Prince Yu gave up and said, "My family of dozens of people need to eat. I can't afford this gift."
Xianzong looked at Prince Rui and said, "The ninth prince can't pay, what about you, the fifth prince?"
Prince Rui was very calm and said, "Your Majesty also knows that I married off my daughter this year, and I gave her a lot of dowry. I can't prepare a heavy gift now."
"Bang!" Xianzong slammed the table and said, "Who told you to have so many daughters?"
"That's right," Prince Yu chimed in, "Your Majesty has only given birth to a daughter, eh?" When Prince Yu got to this point, an idea suddenly occurred to him, and he said, "Your Majesty, let the Princess deliver this birthday gift."
Xianzong thought he was hallucinating again and asked, "What did you say?"
Prince Yu said: "Let the princess go. With her ability, even if Li Xiaoyuan digs a dog hole, she will have to go through it herself!"
Prince Rui thought about what his niece had done in the past few months and felt that this method would work.
Prince Yu was very excited and said, "Your Majesty, with our niece's skills, ah," Prince Yu made a few fist-throwing gestures, "What can that bastard Li Xiaoyuan do to our niece?"
"This is a birthday banquet," Xianzong said with an embarrassed look on his face, "Are you asking the princess to go fight Li Xiaoyuan?"
"At least the princess won't be humiliated if she goes," Prince Yu said, "Li Xiaoyuan has always said that we in Fengtian have no capable people and no backbone, and there is nothing else to say. This time, let the princess go and show him."
Let a princess bring glory to the country?
Prince Rui felt ashamed. Are all the Fengtian men dead?
Xianzong was thick-skinned. After listening to his ninth brother's words, Xianzong felt that this was the truth. Anyway, his daughter was also making trouble every day in Fengtian, so he could let her go to make trouble for that bastard Li Xiaoyuan. After seeing his daughter's bravery, which general Li Xiaoyuan would send to attack them in Fengtian would be a problem, right? "Let's do it," Xianzong decided.
"Your Majesty is wise!" Prince Yu immediately seconded the motion.
Prince Rui... this is so shameless.
