Chapter 101 The Minister’s Wife Is So Beautiful 32
The older brother of the twins is Duanmu Shen. He was conferred the title of Prince Dayao on the first day of his birth. The first time he saw the world, he had reached the peak of his life.
Her younger sister is Duanmu Qu, who was also named Princess Yonghuan at birth. She also inherited the Southern Xinjiang Gu Spirit. With the love of her grandfather's three uncles, it is a foregone conclusion that she will inherit the Witchcraft Hall. She is a true winner in life.
The two little babies have always been with their mother. When they were able to speak, Lin Zhiyi carried the little prince to the Prime Minister's Mansion.
He folded Duanmu Shen's small body into a kneeling position, and held his little head to perform the apprenticeship ceremony to Prime Minister Xiao Sheng.
Although he is Lin Zhiyi's brother and can be considered his uncle, they are not blood relatives after all.
The ancients attached great importance to the master-disciple relationship. Lin Zhiyi has already planned for the future, and it is necessary to completely win over Xiao Sheng.
Xiao Sheng naturally did not dare to endure the prince's kneeling, but Lin Zhiyi insisted on doing so, and forced him and the little prince to complete the apprenticeship ceremony.
From then on, the little prince's enlightenment was completely handed over to Xiao Sheng. The aristocratic Xiao family saw this and was very happy about it.
The apprenticeship ceremony is complete, and the glory of the Xiao family will continue even if the new emperor takes over.
Emperor Duanmu Qi just laughed it off when he heard about this. He thought Zhizhi was insecure and wanted to pave the way for her son as much as possible. This was fine, as parents who love their children will always plan for the long term.
In the past few years, Zhizhi has been obedient to him, and he is very satisfied with the time she is by his side.
But gradually things started to go wrong...
As Crown Prince Duanmu Shen grew up, subtle changes began to appear in the court.
When Duanmu Shen was ten years old, the little guy who looked very much like Duanmu Qi had perfectly inherited the excellent gene for emotional stability. He had a stern face all day long, and if you didn't look at his short body, it was really hard to tell his age from his expression.
Because he was mature and intelligent, at the age of ten he was already standing in the court to listen to government affairs and even spoke boldly.
His remarks also made the ministers look strange.
Every time the emperor gave an order, the little prince would jump out and say, "Father, I don't think this is right!"
The Emperor asked softly, "What do you think, Prince?"
Duanmu Shen put his hands behind his back, looking calm and composed: "Prime Minister, please tell me the second solution."
Xiao Sheng, who was named, had no choice but to speak out.
Then the little prince would say, "Prime Minister, this is exactly what I meant. What do you think, Father?"
After all, the little guy grew up under his nose. As long as it does not harm the country, people's livelihood and the country, even if it hurts his own face, the emperor will agree to the little prince, which is regarded as affirmation of him.
But once or twice, let's just assume that the little prince wanted to prove himself. After a long time, even a fool could see that something was wrong.
The little prince seemed to want to go against the emperor, and to do so openly.
No matter what His Majesty said, the little prince would always say, "Father, I don't think it's appropriate." In the following years, the court officials who were recruited by the Princess of Yue would be named.
The ministers suddenly remembered Duanmu Shen's background.
The eldest son of the King of Yue!
The King of Yue has been staying quietly in Yongzhou these past few years, and no one knows what he is thinking...
The ministers all had their own plans in mind, but no one dared to mention it without thinking.
The Princess of Yue and His Majesty had an unclear relationship in the past, and Duanmu Shen looked very similar to His Majesty. All the ministers tacitly agreed that the twins were His Majesty's children. As they did not want to get killed, no one dared to speak out.
But now the prince's behavior has shaken the minds of all the ministers.
The King of Yue and Your Majesty are blood relatives, so it is possible that the child looks like his uncle. The Crown Prince's attitude shows that he is trying to... fight for power!
Hiss, when I think about it this way, this matter is a bit serious!
Although the ten-year-old prince may seem a little ridiculous at this age, you have to look at what is behind this child.
First of all, there is the legitimate position of the Eastern Palace, and behind it is the entire southern Xinjiang. Even the third uncle is the son-in-law of the regent princess of Dayan, and he is involved with Dayan.
Furthermore, his father, the King of Yue, was in Yongzhou, commanding the Zhufeng Army, and his mother, Princess Yunhuang, had relied on the emperor's favor and had been completely busy in the capital for the past ten years, wandering among the ministers and their wives...
After reviewing the situation, the court officials were surprised to find that the prince had grown strong enough to be qualified to compete with the emperor!
There was another rebuttal in the court.
On the throne, the emperor, still sharp and intimidating even after ten years, stared at the small but upright body in the hall, his eyes darkening.
"It's a good thing that the Crown Prince is concerned about state affairs, but don't overdo it. You are still young, so you should be humble and learn. Didn't the Prime Minister teach you that?"
Prime Minister Xiao Sheng lowered his eyes. To be honest, he also felt a little uneasy, but it seemed that he had been forced to board the Crown Prince's chariot a long time ago...
Small body, but full of momentum.
The little face, which looked very much like Duanmu Qi but still a little childish, was full of seriousness.
"In reply to your Majesty, I naturally understand what humility is. However, I knew there were better methods but I didn't use them. This is a closed-minded approach, ignoring the advice of good ministers. This is unacceptable to a wise ruler."
"Your Majesty is a man of great prestige and prudence. Many things are so simple that none of the ministers would contradict you. But why wouldn't we do something better? Your Majesty is displeased with your rebuttal, which is made on behalf of the people of the world."
The ministers gasped. How dare the little prince accuse His Majesty!
The key point is that this statement is contradictory. The emperor can't find any reason to blame anyone. Is this something a ten-year-old child can say?
Duanmu Qi narrowed his eyes: "Who taught you to say these words?"
Duanmu Shen had a hint of guilt in his eyes, but he quickly concealed it: "I just said what was in my heart. If you want to blame me, I am willing to accept the punishment."
Of course, there was no punishment. After the court session, Duanmu Qi ordered the prince to copy the laws of the Great Yao Kingdom in the imperial study in the name of assessing his knowledge. He was not allowed to eat until he finished writing, and Eunuch Le Xi was supervising him.
Duanmu Shen knelt behind the imperial desk, lost in thought as he stared at a sheet of rice paper thicker than his head...
Duanmu Qi was upset by his own son in the court, so he naturally went to his mother for comfort.
Although Lin Zhiyi has been the Princess of Yue for many years, she has always lived in the mansion given to her by Duanmu Qi.
At this moment, in broad daylight, in the bedroom, Lin Zhiyi's back was leaning against the tea table, her face flushed and her eyes full of lust.
Ten years have passed, and Lin Zhiyi's beauty has become more charming with the passing of time. Her every frown and smile is so charming that the emperor wishes he could let her melt into his bones and blood. Whenever they meet, they would torment each other endlessly.
For ten years, Duanmu Qi's feelings for her not only did not fade, but even grew stronger day by day.
Since there is no harem, she is the only one... ahem.
In short, Lin Zhiyi has been taking care of her waist for the past ten years, otherwise she would have strained her waist muscles long ago!
After a hearty outburst of love, Duanmu Qi took the person who was always about to cry into his arms and coaxed her: "Zhizhi, if you cry again, I will continue. Can you bear it?"
The sobbing sound immediately stopped, and Lin Zhiyi cursed inwardly, did she want to cry?
Isn’t it that Duanmu Qi is going too far?
Duanmu Qi stroked her bare shoulders with his big hands and recounted what had happened in the court.
"There's been people around that kid lately who shouldn't be around him. He's young and easily provoked. You should keep a close eye on him."
Lin Zhiyi smiled secretly, the instigator is in your arms.
You wouldn't believe it, hahaha. The father and son won't kill each other, but she has been pretending to be a little woman for so long, it's time for her to stand up!
