Chapter 308: Submit to Fate
The emperor was still practicing diligently in Qingxu Palace, but he was often a little absent-minded.
Finally, he simply left Qingxu Palace and called Song Jingyun to his side. "Song Aiqing has been an official for some time. You should be able to see the prince often."
"Now, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is the regent, and all matters of the court, big or small, are decided by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Because of some government affairs, I cannot avoid having some contact with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Song Jingyun answered truthfully.
"Then do you think His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is ready to inherit the throne?" the emperor asked again.
Song Jingyun paused, his attitude becoming more respectful, "I dare not speak nonsense."
"It's okay, we're just chatting, just say whatever you want, I forgive you."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Song Jingyun bowed first, then spoke, "But I think that whether His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can inherit the throne depends mainly on the will and decision of the emperor."
"Life is all about making choices, but if you give up something, you will definitely gain something. It just depends on whether the gain is worth it."
If you give, you gain.
Willing to...
The emperor was silent for a long time.
Seeing this, Song Jingyun said no more.
In the following days, the emperor summoned several important and old ministers including Tang Zhichuan several times in succession, and for the first time ever, he attended a morning court session. He even summoned several royal princes into the palace and spoke to them for a long time.
But in the end no decree came down.
Among the old ministers and princes in the court, some who could not bear it any longer could not help but grumble in private.
"It's been so long since this rumor was spread, and the emperor still hasn't made any decision. Could it be that this matter is not going smoothly?"
"Whether it goes smoothly or not is not a big deal. I am just afraid that the emperor will become suspicious and think that we are the ones who are fanning the flames. He will then become suspicious and accuse us of plotting to usurp the throne and forming a clique for personal gain..."
This is a crime punishable by extermination of the entire family.
They devoted their lives to the court and the people of the world until their death, but they did not want to implicate their families.
"Do your best and leave the rest to fate," Tang Zhichuan reminded.
"Master Tang is right, and I have always felt that even God is on our side this time." Elder Zhang also nodded, "You all should continue to do your work as usual and don't panic."
Seeing that the respected old officials were so confident, the young officials felt relieved and stopped talking. ——After entering June, the weather became hotter.
Jiang Youcheng, Liu and Jiang Chunyu lived in the capital for more than a month and gradually adapted and became familiar with the city.
But after getting familiar with it, he felt that life in the capital was too comfortable and casual. Without doing any work all day, all the bones in his body seemed to be stiff and he felt very uncomfortable.
Following the principle that they had nothing to do anyway, Jiang Youcheng and Liu strolled around the main streets of the capital for many days. They also had a detailed discussion with Jiang Mixia, Song Jingyun and Jiang Chunyu, and finally they unanimously decided to open a shop on the street, still selling bamboo woven items.
The idea was made up and action was taken quickly. After Jiang Junli heard about this, he sent a manager to help, and the shop was opened soon.
Bamboo baskets, bamboo trays, bamboo bags, bamboo paintings, bamboo flower baskets, bamboo lanterns...
There are various styles, and the main feature is exquisite workmanship, trendy and beautiful appearance.
Bamboo products are popular because of their toughness, durability and beautiful appearance. Bamboo also has the metaphor of humility, self-improvement and freshness, so many people like bamboo and are willing to buy bamboo products.
My friend had some urgent business last night, so I helped him all night and barely slept all night. I made up for the sleep during the day and also took care of my poor student Dabao who was about to take the final exam. I will only update once today, and will start writing early tomorrow~ (End of this chapter)
