Grandmother taught Jun to look back, the past is full of tears;
The Emperor must not have an ordinary heart.
In a blink of an eye, it was already March. The birthday was coming up, and Xuan Ye was now 14 years old. His condition was not as good as it used to be, but it was only natural for him to call the Emperor his own government, but he should not be too hasty. He had to make a long plan to keep the imperial report in order. Xuan Ye had been in a bad mood recently, and the only consolations he could offer were Rong'er and their child that would soon be born.
In this world, the emperor came to pay his respects to the empress dowager as usual.
After the emperor had done his ceremonies, the empress dowager pointed to a namelist on the table and smiled at Xuan Ye. ”Your majesty, you've come at the right time. This is the roster of the beautiful ladies participating in this year's selection.
Xuan Ye had no interest in the talent show, so he said, ”Also according to previous sessions, if Imperial Grandmother sees a suitable card, she will leave it behind. If it is appropriate, marriage will be granted.”
The empress dowager shook her head. ”Previously, it was because you were young. This year, Your Majesty said that This Dowager would choose your concubine.”
”What?” Old Ancestor, this grandson doesn't need to concubine. This grandson already has four, I can't even care about that. ” Xuan Ye said without much interest.
”Your Imperial Majesty, This Dowager wants to ask you why you were allowed to marry Hersheri as Empress.” the Empress Dowager asked.
”Because Sony is the chief assistant, an important official. After he marries Sony, he will be more loyal to me and will work for me wholeheartedly. Old Ancestor, you were the one who taught your grandson this.” Xuan Ye didn't know what his royal grandmother meant by that.
”This... ”Royal Grandmother …” Xuan Ye was momentarily at a loss for words.
”Your majesty, tell This Dowager, who do you think she trusts the most?” The Empress Dowager continued to ask.
Kang Xi thought for a while and said in a low voice, ”Royal Grandmother, actually, I have thought about this before. In this empire of civil and military affairs, the only person who can make your grandson 100% believe that he is absolutely loyal to me is Sony.”
”That's right, because he's not only your subject, he's also your relative. The more family like this, the better for the emperor. Does the emperor understand?” the Empress Dowager asked again.
”Yes, grandson understands.” Xuan Ye lowered his head, no longer saying anything.
”Oh, your majesty. Your fourteenth birthday is coming up, but you don't even have the intention of giving up power. This time's talent show is your government.” To deal with them, to rope in their subjects, and to support your personal government; this is the best opportunity. The empress dowager stared at Xuan Ye as she spoke seriously.
Raising his eyes to look at her royal grandmother, Xuan Ye said, ”Your grandson understands. What royal grandmother said is extremely true. Please arrange it, royal grandmother.” Then he lowered his head again.
The Empress Dowager sighed. She still didn't know what her grandson was thinking, so she knew very well. ”Your majesty, I am asking you. ”Do you like it very much?”
”Yes, I won't hide it from my imperial grandmother. Rong'er is a brilliant genius, and he also has his own thoughts, which can help relieve Zhen's worries. Moreover, sometimes, I feel that Rong'er has the shadow of my imperial grandmother on him.” Xuan Ye scratched his head and embarrassedly whispered, ”In fact, this grandson had thought that even if Rong'er was by himself to accompany this grandson for the rest of his life, this grandson would still be satisfied.”
