Chapter 10 The excited Mr. Xiao Ge


Chapter 10 The excited Mr. Xiaoge

There is never a wall without ventilation in the world.

Although the sudden death of the crown prince made Yan Song and Yan Shifan worried about their father and son, after Yan Song drafted a posthumous title for the late prince and sent it to Emperor Jiajing, Emperor Jiajing did not care about the sudden death of the crown prince. The bad news, and then blamed Yan Song.

So the emperor's wrath that Yan Song and Yan Shifan were worried about was easily overcome.

So at this time, the issue that Yan Song and Yan Shifan were concerned about was not the dead crown prince, but the future crown prince.

As we all know, after the sudden death of the prince, His Majesty the Emperor only had two children left alive.

These two children are the third prince Yuwang Zhu Zaijing and Jingwang Zhu Zaizhen.

On the surface, according to the order of etiquette and law, Prince Yu Zhu Zaijing is naturally the obvious candidate for the new crown prince.

But Yan Song knew in his heart that he could not be like people like Xu Jie, clinging to the so-called etiquette and rules to fight against the emperor.

What he has to do is to obey the wishes of Emperor Jiajing and fight for Emperor Jiajing against those prickly civil servants who are self-righteous and disobedient.

Therefore, regarding the candidate for the new crown prince, even a discerning person could see that King Yu was to be elected, but Yan Song could not stand up and choose Prince Yu as the crown prince like Xu Jie and others.

Otherwise, his behavior will most likely be judged as "betrayal" by Emperor Jiajing!

Therefore, Yan Song couldn't help but have a headache about his future. The choice left to him was either to do nothing or to make a completely different choice from Xu Jie and others.

But is King Jing really a good choice?

Obviously considering reality and etiquette, King Jing is not a good choice.

Therefore, Yan Song's headache at the moment is not a groundless worry, but an imminent one.

At this moment, Yan Song's eldest son Yan Shifan couldn't help but come to the cabinet duty house in Xiyuan with a happy face. He served the old Yan Song and guarded the guard room for Emperor Jiajing. Always on standby.

It can be said that the Xiyuan house-keeping system instituted by Emperor Jiajing, which is similar to work duty, is also an innovation of power in a sense.

This innovative power model not only made up for the impact of Emperor Jiajing's understanding of the world's information since he left the court, but also greatly consolidated Emperor Jiajing's control of power.

It also has to make Emperor Jiajing even more mysterious and unpredictable, as if he is a living god, lofty and incomprehensible, with power that cannot be seen!

"Dad, I'm here."

Yan Shifan's fat and flexible body flashed in from the small door of the duty house and appeared in front of Yan Song.

When Yan Song saw the smile on Yan Shifan's face, he couldn't help scolding: "You traitor! What time is it now? Can you still laugh? I don't have an unfaithful and unfilial traitor like you. "

Yan Shifan hurriedly came over, squeezed Yan Song's shoulders, and said in a low voice: "Dad, please calm down, your health is important. My son has a big event to report to you."

Although Yan Song was furious, he was old after all, and he still loved and tolerated his son very much.

Yan Song sighed and said: "What happy event can there be? The prince passed away and the whole country mourned. If you are so happy, sooner or later it will lead to disaster. As a father, I can protect you for a while, but I can't protect you for the rest of your life."

Yan Song's sincere words came to Yan Shifan's ears, but he didn't take it seriously.

Yan Shifan relied on his extraordinary intelligence, but sometimes he did not take his father's advice to heart. Sometimes he even felt that his father was old and confused and had no courage at all.

While squeezing Yan Song's shoulders, Yan Shifan couldn't help but whisper excitedly: "Dad, my son got the news that King Yu is crazy and has now been sent to Chaotian Temple to summon the souls."

This information from Yan Shifan made Yan Song, who was already dazed, suddenly regain his breath and a frightening light appeared in his eyes. Yan Song asked in a deep voice: "Is this serious?"

Yan Shifan replied excitedly: "It's absolutely true. How dare my son deceive you?"

Yan Song didn't ask Yan Shifan where he got the news, because he already knew it. I was just surprised as to why Yan Shifan knew.

Yan Song moved his body, his eyes drooped again, the light in his eyes became restrained, leaving only turbidity, and his condition returned to the state of an old man who is harmless to humans and animals.

Yan Song said slowly: "God will not bless my emperor. The prince has just passed away, and King Yu has brought this bad news. Is this God's punishment for the Ming Dynasty?"

Listening to Yan Song's words, Yan Shifan became anxious again. Why did the old man slip up at the critical moment again? This is not the time to lament the emperor and the Ming Dynasty. This is the time to consider the future of the Yan family.

Yan Shifan couldn't help but remind him: "Dad, can we think about ourselves?"

After Yan Song heard Yan Shifan's unsettling words, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. Hey, when will Yan Shifan restrain his temper and polish his attitude?

Did Yan Song lament the emperor and the Ming Dynasty in what he said just now? Yan Song is always reminding himself to be a "loyal minister with unwavering loyalty" and to be a loyal minister who worries about his emperor and father.

Only by maintaining such loyalty and worry at all times, the emperor will always trust and reuse the Yan family.

Otherwise, the fate of former chief assistant Xia Yan will be the fate of the Yan family in an instant!

Xia Yan was Yan Song’s former boss and Yan Song’s biggest political enemy. Yan Song believed that Xia Yan’s death was because he could not position himself correctly, thinking that he was sincere in serving the country, so he acted in front of Emperor Jiajing. The ability of an old minister wants to change the world, conquer the Loop, and make contributions through the ages.

But by doing this, he seemed to be loyal, but in fact he was slapping Emperor Jiajing in the face! Emperor Jiajing had a lofty heart and aspired to become an immortal. How could he care about a mere Loop?

Therefore, in Jiajing's eyes, Xia Yan's argument of advocating for the recovery of the Hetao was accusing Jiajing of not being able to devote himself to state affairs and being obsessed with asking questions. Moreover, the "Qing Ci" written by Xia Yan was not in line with Jiajing's wishes.

So, in Yan Song’s opinion, Xia Yan’s death was his own fault!

Now that his son is so old and still doesn't understand the ways of a king, one can imagine the worries in Yan Song's heart.

But time has not spared Yan Song even half a moment. He is still old after all, and his energy is not always abundant. Many times, he is always unable to control many things.

So in the face of his son's current irritable behavior, Yan Song can only place his hope in the future. He hopes that after time has settled and polished, Yan Shifan can also wash away the brilliance, curb his sharpness, and become a calm man. A person who is angry and can devote his whole heart to the king.

This way the future of the Yan family will not make the same mistake as Xia Yan.

Yan Song said in a low voice: "What do you want to consider for your father?"

Yan Shifan said anxiously: "Of course it is your future, your son's future, and the future of the Yan family!"

Facing Yan Shifan's eagerness, Yan Song said quietly: "My future, your future, and The future of the Yan family depends on your majesty. You just have to think about your majesty's thoughts and do your best to think about your majesty."

Listening to Yan Song's unhurried words, Yan Shifan was about to be betrayed by his old man. I'm so angry, why are you so not in a hurry?

Now I can see clearly that King Jing is the future, why is it so difficult to communicate?

Yan Shifan didn't understand Yan Song's true meaning at all. He always imagined his own affairs in a smart way, without reflecting on himself at all.

It can be seen from this that Yan Shifan is smart, but his intelligence is still far behind an old fox like his father who has matured into a master.
