Chapter 231 Childish!
Another morning morning ended.
In the royal study.
Cheng Sitao bowed and saluted.
“Your Majesty has summoned his ministers to come here, but what is the important matter?”
Cheng Shengxuan stood up and walked to him.
"You and I are the only brothers here. Big brother doesn't have to be so formal."
Cheng Sitao shook his head.
“Etiquette cannot be discarded.”
Cheng Shengxuan walked several times in front of him.
"Brother, what do you think is different about me today?"
Cheng Sitao was slightly stunned: "???"
What do you mean? Are you asking me to come here to find out the difference?
He glanced up and down, and his eyes fell on his feet that were walking back and forth.
"This shoe..."
Before he could finish speaking, Cheng Shengxuan nodded, with a hint of showing off in his tone.
"Really, right? Brother has noticed it too, right?"
"Aren't these shoes that Miss An made for me beautiful?"
He said After that, Cheng Sitao also came out with the second half of the sentence.
“It doesn’t seem to match the clothes His Majesty is wearing today, right?”
Cheng Shengxuan: "..."
The imperial study room was silent for a few seconds. Cheng Sitao thought about it for a moment and then started to praise.
"But it's really good. It's the first time I've done it, and it's already amazing to be able to do it like this."
He wrote that he left him alone after the morning meeting just to show off. Did Miss An make him new shoes?
Childish!
"I think so."
Cheng Shengxuan nodded in agreement.
At this time, Wen Mao, the newly appointed eunuch manager, reported outside.
“Your Majesty, Taifu Sun and Prime Minister Meng would like to see you.”
Cheng Sitao: “Would you please step down first?”
Cheng Shengxuan shook his head.
"No need, the two adults came together. They must have something important to discuss. Brother, please stay and listen together."
Soon, Taifu Sun and Prime Minister Meng came in. .
"Old minister, I see your Majesty."
"Please get up quickly, you two are here in a hurry, but what is the important matter?"
Taifu Sun and Meng Cheng looked at each other.
In the end, it was Prime Minister Meng who spoke first.
"Replying to Your Majesty, it has been more than a month since Your Majesty ascended the throne, and all the affairs of the court have been dealt with. Is it time to consider enriching the harem and extending the heirs?"
Taifu Sun on the side He also nodded in agreement.
“Yes, Your Majesty, the harem cannot be left without a master for a day!”
Cheng Shengxuan tapped his fingers on the desk and turned to look at Cheng Sitao on the other side.
“What does eldest brother think of this matter?”
Cheng Sitao cursed in his heart.
If I had known this, I would have left just now.
He glanced at the two elders beside him, then at Cheng Shengxuan, and finally touched his nose.
"Me, stand and watch?"
I can't control it, and it's not my business, so what else can I say?
I would like to second my opinion, that would be very sorry for Miss An.
And the Cheng family has always been monogamous. If he dared to say that he agreed with San Gong and Six Courtyards, let alone Ah Qin who wanted to make trouble with him, his grandmother would beat him to death with a cane.
If you don’t agree, you will offend the two elders in front of you.
Tsk, that’s so annoying!
How good is it that you just slipped away?
Hearing this, Taifu Sun and Prime Minister Meng both turned their heads and looked over.
What did you say?
“Haha.”
Hearing this, Cheng Shengxuan smiled.
"It is true that I was negligent. Come here, please give the three adults a seat!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
After thanking you, the three of them sat down.
Taifu Sun continued.
"I know that when the Cheng family was in trouble, Miss An came to the rescue. Your Majesty, you and Miss An are in love."
"It's just that Miss An's status is indeed lower."
Hearing this, Cheng Sitao suddenly felt bad. He winked at them desperately and coughed several times.
“Ahem!”
Stop it, stop it.
However, the two ministers were old and couldn't see his expression clearly. Taifu Sun continued to talk on his own.
"The old minister did not mean to look down on Miss An when he said this, but when people live in the world, they will always encounter people who respect their origin first and then their people."
Prime Minister Meng continued what Taifu Sun said.
“That’s right.”
"If Your Majesty wants to marry Miss An as your queen, I have discussed it with Taifu Sun. I am willing to recognize Miss An as my granddaughter. In this way, Miss An will not be looked down upon by other concubines of high birth in the harem in the future. .”
“Cough cough cough!”
Cheng Sitao almost coughed up his lungs.
My grandfather, please stop talking!
Didn’t you see that the emperor’s face changed?
You also ate a lot of snacks bought by Miss An.
Don’t you know that eating people is soft-mouthed!
Being interrupted again, Prime Minister Meng became a little angry and turned around to ask him angrily.
"Does Ping Nanhou have anything to say? Or do you agree with what Lao Sun Fangcai and I said?"
Cheng Sitao: "!!!"
Don't slander me!
He suddenly thought of an interesting modern joke.
This time I can really sue to the middle, ah no, to the imperial court.
“Oh?”
Cheng Shengxuan glanced at them inexplicably, and then looked at Cheng Sitao.
"Brother, do you think so too?"
Cheng Sitao, who was wandering in his mind, suddenly came back to his senses, shook his head and waved his hands repeatedly.
"I'm not, I didn't, don't think nonsense!"
"Ahem!"
Realizing that his performance just now was not very steady, he coughed lightly, Conceal the embarrassment.
"What I mean is that everything is entirely up to your Majesty."
Taifu Sun and Prime Minister Meng glared at him with hatred.
There is really no hope!
“Okay.”
Cheng Shengxuan interrupted them in a deep voice.
"I know that every word of what my two dear friends said is for my benefit, but according to what they just said, what am I marrying? An identity, a status, or the power of a family?"
< br>The two looked at each other.
"I have no such intention."
"Of course I know that the two dear friends have no selfish intentions."
As he said that, Cheng Shengxuan's face showed warmth.
"But if I want to marry someone, it has nothing to do with status or family background, just because that person is her."
"As for enriching the harem, the two beloved ladies have a close relationship with the Cheng family. Don't you know? Is concubinage an ancestral motto of the Cheng family? "
The two elders looked at each other.
"This..."
Cheng Sheng waved his hand.
"Okay, you two go back first."
"Eldest brother, stay here for a while."
After the two elders shook their heads and sighed, they were the only two brothers left in the imperial study.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will not mention today's matter to Miss An."
Cheng Shengxuan nodded, his face flushed slightly as he thought about the next question.
"I know that eldest brother will definitely not say that I asked eldest brother to stay because I have something I want to ask for advice."
Seeing his expression, Cheng Sitao was a little surprised.
"Excuse me, what?"
......
Half an hour later, Cheng Sitao walked out of the imperial study room in a daze.
Outside, Taifu Sun and Meng Cheng saw him coming out and surrounded him.
Prime Minister Meng glared at him.
"What's the matter with you kid? Why didn't you come with us to persuade His Majesty just now?"
Cheng Sitao sighed and persuaded him earnestly.
"Grandpa, Grandpa Sun, you two don't have to worry about this. Your Majesty has his own plan."
But don't worry about it anymore. Shengxuan was not willing to be the emperor in the first place, so what should he do if he is forced to give up his position?
“Aren’t we also thinking about the country and the country?”
“Okay, okay, we are old, and now the world is dominated by young people, you can worry about it yourself!”< br>
The two elders waved their hands and walked away leisurely.
On the way back, the more Cheng Sitao thought about it, the less at ease he felt.
If Shengxuan quits, this trouble won't happen to him, right?
No, no!
Absolutely not!
Suddenly, he revealed a strange smile.
Hmph!
Damn it, you've reached the age where you should resist!
