Yan Shiyue glanced at him and walked straight forward until she entered the room. She pointed to the chair opposite and asked him to sit down. She moved the lamp in front of her, put her hand on the table, and said, "Fourteenth Uncle, look at me."
Prince Ke looked up in confusion, and Yan Shiyue said seriously, "Because I want to help him."
She spoke slowly and clearly, "Do you want to ask me if I have a sisterly love for the Seventh Prince? No, I don't have the slightest sisterly love for him... But if you want to ask me if I have any ill will towards him? No, neither I nor Ayang have any ill will towards him. Everything we do is for his own good, to help him."
"Why should I help him? Because he is just stupid, he is not bad, he is being used by others. I can't make him smart, but at least I can build a wall in his heart. As long as he can abide by his duties in the future and not overstep the line, he can at least save his life and become a peaceful prince in the future."
Prince Ke was obviously completely confused and looked at her with wide eyes.
Yan Shiyue continued, "Fourteenth Uncle, you have to understand that not everyone in this world has the right to be willful, especially as a prince, who enjoys more privileges but also has to bear greater responsibilities. The emperor is the monarch, and the prince is also the monarch. The relationship between the monarch and the minister is a great principle. This taboo must not be violated, and this rule must not be broken! This is crucial to maintaining stability in the world. If you don't have enough respect for the monarchy, then what else in this world can make you respect? If everyone has no respect, then it's over!"
"Qi Lang is not you. He is afraid of death, and he wants something... But he is twelve years old now, and many of his ideas have already been formed. The gentle, step-by-step method of teaching Jiaozi and Nian Gao is no longer effective for him, so I must use drastic measures to force him to change his mind."
She paused and said, "Whether you believe it or not, what I said is all true, and I have a clear conscience."
She pulled away.
Prince Ke was left blinking rapidly, in confusion.
...
...
And at this time, the queen also summoned Ning Da Ying.
Ning Da Ying and the Seventh Prince are really the same mother and son... no brains, no bad intentions.
But even though she felt that she was not a threatening person, given the incident with Concubine Shu, the Queen still decided to explain the matter to her in detail, so that her daughter could sell the product well and not worry about it for a long time and cause misunderstandings.
The queen asked her, "Just think about it, if no one is in charge, how will this matter be handled?"
You have to know that the harem is the most flattering and bullying place in the world. If the master is favored, even a eunuch can bully the concubines. If the master is not favored, it will not be easy to find an imperial physician when he is sick.
Ning Da Ying was a marginal figure who was out of favor, and the Seventh Prince was naturally the same.
Strictly speaking, this sentence does not mean "disrespect" to the crown prince, and the prince will never punish him for it. However, the person who was really offended by this sentence was not the prince, but Emperor Ming Yan!
Emperor Ming Yan was the instigator of the "female crown prince"!
He let Yan Shiyue wear an apricot yellow robe to create a situation of checks and balances. There were many considerations in this process, but no matter how many considerations he had, it was ultimately for the stability of the imperial power and long-term peace. He absolutely, absolutely, would never want to hear people say "The crown prince depends entirely on Fu Yan!"
Just like what Yan Shiyue said, the imperial power cannot be challenged, and Emperor Ming Yan would never tolerate the behavior of despising the crown prince.
Even though the Seventh Prince is an extremely favored prince, in order to convey such an attitude to the outside world, Emperor Ming Yan must punish him severely!
By then, the one who will be punished will definitely be the Seventh Prince himself!
You know, punishing a concubine is, after all, a matter of the emperor's inner chambers, and the promotion and demotion will not have any impact on the decision, but what if the seventh prince is punished? A prince who was not favored to begin with was severely punished for such a taboo reason. That would really be stepping into the mud, and there would be no way out.
The Queen really took great pains to make Ning Da Ying fully understand the matter. She was so frightened that her face turned pale.
As long as you figure out this key issue, Ning will understand the rest without you having to explain.
As I said, what the palace fears most is not discipline, but indifference.
Yan Shiyue took him over to discipline him. No matter whether he taught him well or not, it at least proved that Yan Shiyue would take care of him. This one action was more effective than saying ten thousand polite words.
She was willing to take on this trouble and help the Seventh Prince, and Ning agreed to be grateful to him.
After Ning agreed to leave, Jin Yu said, "Although this guy's brain is not very good, he is a grateful person."
The Queen sighed, "It's good that they know how to be grateful. Yue'er took on this matter. If she can make them know how to be grateful, it will be worth worrying about it."
Jin Yu said: "But I don't understand why Young Master Yang wants to take on such a matter for the young prince?"
The queen couldn't help but smile: "You are stupid too! Ayang, you are such a good boy!"
Jin Yu has always been a counselor to the Queen, but she really hasn't figured this out and was slightly stunned by what she said.
The queen smiled but said nothing.
Huo Qiyang has always been frugal with his words. Even though he entered the officialdom at a young age and worked in official circles, he still prefers to speak one word rather than two.
And he was actually very cold-hearted. How could such a person have any mercy on the Seventh Prince? To be honest, even if the Seventh Prince died in front of him, he would not even blink an eye.
But this person did not hesitate to intervene. His method was even very presumptuous, because he did not consider the impact on himself at all, he did it all for Yan Shiyue.
The seventh prince was stupid, praising one and stepping on another, but no matter who he praised or stepped on, their situations were all very embarrassing!
Feelings are something that cannot stand being worn out.
No matter how generous the prince is, or how close he is to Yan Shiyue, he would not feel comfortable hearing "The prince depends on Fu Yan". Besides, even if he doesn't care, the court officials may not think too much about it. At this time, Huo Qiyang took action in time to eliminate the negative impact of this matter. Regardless of whether it was groundless or not, the queen accepted his kindness.
But this matter is not over yet.
Because, how to put it, the prince's face was not really saved.
If the follow-up is not handled properly, it will appear that Yan Shiyue is doing a favor to the Seventh Prince. Even if everyone knows that Yan Shiyue is not doing it for the Seventh Prince, the Crown Prince will still not look good.
But the queen also thought positively.
She will handle the harem.
Leave the previous matters to my daughter.
Believe in her daughter, she won't let her down.
However, there was one thing that even the Queen did not expect.
Because Huo Qi Yang was actually forced to do so to a certain extent.
What the Queen didn't expect was that Huo Qiyang attached great importance to his "official reputation", because he was determined to help his sister in the future, so he had to grow quickly and stand in a high enough position.
Therefore, he was very careful about his daily words and deeds, especially when it came to rules and etiquette. He would never damage the reputation of the Huo family, nor would he leave any handle for anyone to attack him.
However, the eighth prince is very scheming.
He instigated the Seventh Prince to say such a thing, and it was definitely not for fun that he wanted to harm him. He had a plan. He wanted to win by taking a risk, step on the Seventh Prince to get to the top, and by the way, clear his relationship with him and clear himself.
Because in his heart, he was "implicated" by the Seventh Prince in the previous events.
At that time, after the Seventh Prince said that, the Eighth Prince was immediately shocked and turned to look at him... I think the next step would be to slam the table and angrily accuse the Seventh Prince of being disloyal and unfilial to his king and father.
But if he really did this, it would mean that the Crown Prince and Yan Shiyue were all indebted to him, and the Hundred Days Banquet would become his stage to make a name for himself. The heavier the punishment of the Seventh Prince, the more reasonable and improved he would appear.
So Huo Qiyang acted quickly, interrupted the Eighth Prince's performance, and brought the man out.
At the same time, in order to prevent him from jumping out and talking later and asking for a share of the pie, he directly revealed his identity as the "brother", which was not quite legitimate, and quickly left with his people.
This matter should be handled as a family matter. The elder brother disciplines the younger brother. Can the younger brother make a noise? No!
Even though the Eighth Prince's plan failed and he was so frustrated that he wanted to vomit blood, he couldn't say anything more.
If an unfavored minister dared to do this, he could be accused of usurping the throne, but Yan Shiyue's brother-in-law, would he dare to do so? He wouldn't dare!
