Chapter 1074 The Princess Wants to Kill 20
This battle lasted through the cold winter.
When the army returned to the capital, it was already the end of April of the following year, when the flowers were in full bloom.
The entire Barbarian Kingdom has been incorporated into the territory of the Liang Dynasty.
As she rode her horse down the street, the silk flowers and sachets thrown by the girls in the teahouses and restaurants on both sides hit Shu Jiao in the face.
Shu Jiao: Wow!
There are also fruits!
He tilted his head to avoid the piercing peach branches.
Shu Jiao thought that if she hadn't seen that it was the peach blossom that was thrown by the girl shyly, she would have thought that it was sent by her good brothers to assassinate her.
"My son, please see your father!"
"Get up quickly!"
My good child!
Emperor Qianyuan helped her up with a smile, "You've had a hard time along the way."
"As long as I can share Father's worries, I will not suffer any hardship."
Shu Jiao responded.
"Okay! I know you are the most considerate."
Emperor Qianyuan really likes this fox cub.
Although she is a little cunning, although she likes to trick her father when she has nothing to do, and although she is a shameless little drama queen, she is capable!
If you have the ability, any shortcomings become advantages.
"Xining!"
Thinking of this, Emperor Qianyuan's face turned serious.
Shu Jiao glanced at him, realized something, and immediately held back her laughter and knelt down, "Your son is here."
"My third daughter, Princess Xining Shu Jiao, is intelligent and talented, with a natural beauty... She has expanded our territory and territories, and her prestige is feared by the common people."
Emperor Qianyuan said solemnly: "You are a man of great talent and a master of statecraft. Your contributions have been made to the ancestral temples and benefited the people. You are the one who has been chosen by heaven and supported by the people!"
"Today, the Emperor's third daughter, Shu Jiao, is appointed Crown Prince..."
"You should strictly abide by the laws of our ancestors, diligently cultivate virtue, and assist in managing all affairs. Officials both inside and outside the country should wholeheartedly assist and contribute to the prosperity of the country!"
Prince!
The crown prince has been appointed!
Shu Jiao didn't expect Emperor Qianyuan to act so quickly and decisively.
"My son, take the order!"
Tsk~
This is my first time being the crown prince, and I’m still a little uncomfortable with it!
courtier:!!!
No?
emperor??
You didn't say you were going to do this!
"Sir, obey the order!"
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to the Crown Prince!"
A group of people knelt down in a hurry, and then expressed their congratulations and respect to the newly crowned prince.
The way Emperor Qianyuan's confidants looked at Shu Jiao changed immediately.
This is the heir chosen by the old master!
They didn’t know the Third Prince or the Fifth Prince.
In fact, no matter who Emperor Qianyuan chooses, they will follow his lead diligently and responsibly.
But~
There are good ones here, why choose the second best?
Who doesn’t want themselves and their next generation to follow a wise leader?
A group of princes: ...
have to.
ended.
What is there to argue about?
The emperor has taken action personally, so how can they still resist him?
It turns out... the emperor would be so indulgent and loving to the child that he is truly satisfied with!
They were all picked up, right?
Wuwuwu——
Woo——!
Father, you are biased!!!
The resentful and desolate eyes of the group of princes were no different from those of the concubines who had not seen the emperor in the harem for sixteen years.
The princesses who were also present:?
Is this a win?
This, this... victory came so suddenly?
It was all thanks to the small bosses’ own efforts. They didn’t even put in any effort, and they just won without doing anything?
The next second, the princesses thought of their father.
It is obvious that their talents are no less than those of the princes;
Obviously, they learned the same things as the princes: riding and shooting, commanding subordinates, history books and political commentary...
Why is it that in the end, when the emperor appointed the crown prince, he didn't consider them at all?
Why?
They are unwilling to accept this, they are angry, they cling to power tightly and interfere in government affairs, waiting for the day when the real explosion will occur.
now!
Wait till now!!
The princesses' hearts were beating like drums, and the light in their eyes was shocking.
Emperor Qianyuan glanced at——
Forget it.
Just turn a blind eye.
Now that Shu Jiao has taken the position, it would be nice to have a few more princesses to help out.
"Get up."
Emperor Qianyuan spoke calmly, "The tenth day of the eighth month is an auspicious date selected by the Imperial Astronomical Observatory. The Ministry of Rites should prepare for the ceremony of enthroning the crown prince and offer sacrifices to the heavens, the earth, and the ancestors."
If our ancestors are angry, let them be angry.
It's better than letting the huge Liang Dynasty fall into the hands of his son and be completely destroyed.
"Sir, obey the order."
The Minister of Rites responded with a wry smile on his drooping face.
August?
Oh my God!
It's already the end of April, and you're going to hold a grand ceremony in August, a ceremony that will see a princess being crowned the crown prince, an unprecedented one. From the tone of your voice, you're going to hold it in such a grand manner?
Your Majesty, you don't want me to live anymore?
When Emperor Qianyuan appointed a crown prince, this was like a bolt of lightning, and everyone attending the celebration banquet was actually a little dazed.
After the banquet, Shu Jiao went to see Li Wanyi.
"How did your father..."
Li Wanyi was actually also confused.
"Of course, the emperor values his son."
Shu Jiao said with a smile.
Li Wanyi looked at her with a subtle expression, "I don't know when you became so capable."
Is this still the gentle and fragile child who grew up in front of her?
"Mother, I have learned the same things as my brothers since I was young."
Facing Li Wanyi's temptation, Shu Jiao was very calm.
"Who's helping you? Your grandfather?"
"No."
"That is?"
"It's my aunt and the aunts."
Li Wanyi: ...
She is weak in character, but she is not completely ignorant of government affairs.
She knew everything about the royal princesses.
Those little ancestors were actually capable of secretly cultivating a princess to compete for the throne.
"Why didn't you tell me?"
Li Wanyi was really sad. "I have no idea when you contacted them."
"Mother concubine~"
Shu Jiao blinked and looked at her pitifully. "You can't hide anything, especially in front of the emperor. If grandpa moves, it will be too obvious. But it's different for the aunts."
"Even if they make trouble, the emperor won't suspect me."
That's the truth.
"Why now? Your father... is in his prime."
Li Wanyi didn't explain clearly.
What she actually wanted to ask was, why not wait until Emperor Qianyuan was old before taking action? Wouldn’t the chances of winning be greater?
"Because the Emperor is open-minded enough, and he has been disappointed enough. I have grown up and am fully prepared."
The timing is just right!
Shu Jiao explained.
Li Wanyi sighed lightly, without saying whether she believed it or not, and she didn't ask any further questions.
But she will test Shu Jiao.
No matter how hard a person pretends, he cannot fake small details such as living habits and preferences.
"Mother concubine!"
While responding to her probing, Shu Jiao smiled and gave her a scimitar inlaid with red and blue sapphires. "Take a look, isn't it beautiful?"
"This is a treasure that I have spent a lot of effort to find."
Test it out.
She was prepared.
Li Wanyi looked at the knife and laughed helplessly, "Beautiful. What made you think of giving it to me?"
"Mother said that when you were a child, your cousin tricked you into giving him a string of candied haws. He used it to trick you into giving him your beloved ruby and sapphire scimitar, and he ended up losing it and couldn't find it anywhere."
Shu Jiao chuckled, "You also said that you were so angry that you cried for most of the day and fainted."
Li Wanyi was stunned for a moment.
She gently touched the gem on the scimitar, and seemed to be instantly pulled back to her happy childhood.
"Ah."
After a while, she responded softly, gently stroking the back of Shu Jiao's hand, "Are you hurt?"
This is her child!
Only her children are so considerate and filial!
