Chapter 429: Become the King
The emperor was very happy to learn that the crown prince and the eldest prince had returned.
He looked at his two sons who came in, and sized them up. Seeing that they not only did not look thinner, but instead looked more energetic than before, he felt more relieved.
The emperor cordially comforted them and commended their achievements in quelling the civil unrest in Chenliu County.
"I have always been clear about punishment and good deeds. Since you have made contributions this time, you must be rewarded. Tell me, what kind of reward do you want?"
Luo Qinghan said respectfully: "I only want my father, the emperor, and my mother to be healthy, and the people of the world to live and work in peace and contentment. I have no other requests."
Originally, Luo Yechen wanted to take the opportunity to ask his father to grant the marriage, but he ended up hearing the prince's righteous words. The comparison suddenly made his sentimentality seem too petty.
Luo Yechen's words were stuck in his throat and he couldn't utter them.
The emperor said with satisfaction: "The prince has really grown up and become more sensible. He has the demeanor of a crown prince. I was not wrong about you!"
Then he looked at the eldest prince, wanting to know what reward the eldest prince wanted?
The prince has already set his standards so high, Luo Yechen cannot allow himself to appear too low-class.
He said loudly: "Qiu Yuan plotted to murder the crown prince and committed treason, he deserved to die. I assisted the crown prince in getting rid of him, I was just doing my duty. For me, being able to help my father solve his problems is the greatest reward!"
The emperor felt even more relieved when he heard this.
He patted his two sons' shoulders vigorously and encouraged them.
"You are all great! I hope you can keep it up. As the saying goes, when brothers are united, they can break any obstacle. I am very optimistic about you!"
Although the crown prince and the eldest prince said they did not need rewards, the emperor finally gave them rewards.
The prince obtained a sword named Annihilation. It was said that the sword was made of black iron and was forged by several skilled craftsmen. It could cut iron like mud.
The most important thing is that it is the sword of Emperor Taizu, which itself has extraordinary significance.
In addition to the sword, the emperor also rewarded the prince with many gold, silver, jewelry, antiques and beautiful objects.
The eldest prince was crowned King of England.
Luo Yechen didn't expect that his father would be so generous and directly make him a king.
He was overjoyed and quickly knelt down to express his gratitude.
Even if it is just a title of prince, without fiefdom and fiefdom, it is enough.
You know, among more than ten princes, he is the only one who can be enthroned as king so far.
The fact that it is unique is enough to make him very proud!
When he walked out of the imperial study, Luo Yechen felt refreshed and he almost felt like he was flying.
From now on, he is not only the eldest prince, but also the King of England!
He deliberately showed off to the prince.
"Father made me the King of England, but only gave you a sword. It seems that in Father's heart, my position is much more important than yours!"
Luo Qinghan asked coldly: "Have you forgotten how you knelt on the ground and begged for your sin?"
Luo Yechen: “…”
Luo Qinghan: "And the way you were hung on the city wall in Panyun City."
Luo Yechen: “…”
Luo Qinghan: "And the way you were slapped by the nun."
Luo Yechen: “…”
Luo Qinghan: "Do you have anything else to say?"
Luo Yechen felt suffocated: "No, no more."
Luo Qinghan walked past him expressionlessly.
Luo Yechen bared his teeth at his back, waving his fists, as if he wanted to beat him to a pulp on the spot.
Although he was very depressed, Luo Yechen still had to follow the prince to Changle Palace.
The Queen Mother was very happy to see her two grandsons return safely, and she talked to them for a long time.
After coming out of Changle Palace, the two went to the Jiaofang Palace.
Queen Qin was still the same as before, wearing a dark-colored dress, with a dull expression and cold eyes, and her whole body was full of distance.
She looked coldly at the Crown Prince and the Eldest Prince who were kneeling in front of her, without any intention of greeting them.
Luo Yechen felt very uncomfortable.
Since he was a child, he has disliked the serious and rigid queen in front of him. Every time he faces her, it seems that no matter what he does, it is wrong.
Just like now, even when he was just sitting, he felt like there were needles hidden under his butt, and no matter how he sat, he felt something was wrong.
In comparison, Luo Qinghan seemed much calmer.
He sat upright, his posture elegant and calm, without any flaws to be found.
At this moment, he had a strong sense of similarity with Queen Qin.
It's not the similarity in appearance, but the sense of distance that keeps people at a distance. They are exactly the same.
Luo Qinghan seemed to be following a routine, first asking about the Queen's health, and then talking about what he saw and heard in Chenliu County. His tone was very calm from beginning to end, as calm as if he was talking about someone else's affairs, without any emotion.
Queen Qin said calmly, "I heard that you almost met with an accident outside."
Luo Qinghan: "It is true that we encountered some troubles, but it is not a big problem and it will be solved soon."
He said this very easily, as if he had just accidentally bumped into something when going out, making it impossible to imagine the danger he was in when facing pursuit.
Queen Qin: "If you hadn't insisted on going to Chenliu County, you wouldn't have encountered these troubles."
If it were in the past, Luo Qinghan might have made a few excuses, but now he didn't even have the mood to make excuses.
Because he knew that no matter how much he said, Queen Qin would not take it to heart.
If we have different ideals, we cannot work together.
Luo Qinghan responded obediently: "You are right."
Queen Qin: "You are lucky to have returned safely this time, but you may not be so lucky next time. This is a lesson for you. Don't act impulsively in the future."
Luo Qinghan: "You are right."
Queen Qin: "As the crown prince, your every word and action is of great importance. Don't act rashly. Think about your own status before you act. Others may make some mistakes, but you can't. You are not qualified to make mistakes."
Luo Qinghan: "You are right."
Queen Qin: “…”
She looked at the prince expressionlessly, her eyes growing colder and colder.
Luo Qinghan lowered his head slightly, looking respectful.
The atmosphere gradually became stagnant.
Luo Yechen silently buried his head even lower, pretending like an ostrich that he didn't exist.
After a long while, Queen Qin spoke coldly: "If there is nothing else, you can go back."
Luo Yechen was as if he had been pardoned, and said impatiently: "I will take my leave!"
Luo Qinghan leaned forward slightly and said, "Mother, please take care of yourself. I will come to pay my respects to you another day."
He had said this many times before.
It used to be sincere from the heart, but now it is just a routine compliment.
