The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

On the fourth day when Xiao Rui and Emperor Xia came to Mindong Mansion, Ming Wang Xiao Yuan hurried over from Minzhong Mansion. When he heard that his father and King Xian had arrived, he was first surprised and then overjoyed.

What surprised me was that the father was busy with official duties, and how could the body of ten thousand gold come to Fuzhou, which is a remote border? What makes me happy is that my father loves me so much that I came to see me.

At that moment, Xiao Yuan's last grievances about being demoted from the bottom of his heart disappeared, so he immediately rushed to Mindong Mansion with his people.

When he came to the inn, Xiao Yuan knocked on the door with excitement, Hai Dafu opened the door, and when he saw Xiao Yuan's face clearly, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

"Father is above, my son-in-law Xiao Yuan is unfilial and failed to meet father, I implore father to punish." Xiao Yuan directly bowed after entering the house, his eyes were red, not letting tears fall.

Xia Huang was chatting with Xiao Rui, when he saw Xiao Yuan coming in, he bowed his head and bowed, so he said with a smile: "Get up."

Xiao Yuan raised his head and looked at Emperor Xia and Xiao Rui excitedly. The two of them were also looking at Xiao Yuan, but their expressions were the same as Hai Dafu's, they were both stunned.

why?

Just because of Xiao Yuan's miserable appearance, the white and clean skin that he used to be pampered with in the past turned out to be tanned, and his figure has become thinner, his whole person has changed drastically.

Emperor Xia's expression froze and he sighed.

Xiao Rui also couldn't help but said: "Fifth brother, wine, sex and wealth are like a bone-scraping steel knife. When you come to Fuzhou and stay away from the capital, you can't let yourself go. Look at your figure, it's almost too weak. This is not a school."

Xiao Yuan was furious, and shouted: "Seven, don't be ridiculous, don't slander the king in front of the father! Please be clear, the father is definitely not that kind of person!"

Xia Huang glared, and said angrily: "You still don't admit it? I have seen everything you do, and you are still stubborn!"

When Xiao Yuan saw that His Majesty was angry, he knelt on the ground in fright, and said: "My son and servant are all following the teachings of the father, and I ask the father to learn from it, and don't listen to the nonsense of the king."

"Observe my teachings?" Emperor Xia was so angry, he thought that belittling him to come here would work his muscles and bones, make him grow and mature, but he didn't expect to let himself go!

Xiao Rui saw that Emperor Xia was angry, so he stopped teasing Xiao Yuan, and quickly said: "Fifth Brother, don't hurry to plead guilty, you sent people to Mindong City to arrest Sister Qian, isn't it just to take a concubine? We have already heard about your feat , the famous families and the ladies of the rich families in several prefectures in Fuzhou will not let you go, how dare you not make mistakes?"

"Whose! Who takes a concubine just because of lust?" Xiao Yuan said angrily.

Xiao Rui looked at him and said speechlessly: "You are still doing it for the money of the woman's family, right?"

"That's right! This is the point!" Xiao Yuan said solemnly.

"Presumptuous!" Emperor Xia was completely angry, and immediately scolded: "For the sake of other people's money, you, as a dignified prince, actually speak such words with confidence! Is the salary I gave you not enough for you to live on? What do you want so much money for?" ? Are you recruiting troops?"

Xiao Yuan shivered in fright, quickly knelt there, and said in a mournful voice: "I know I'm wrong, but I want to build roads, and I don't have enough money, so I can only do something wrong. Even if I have nine guts, I can't You will have the idea of ​​recruiting troops!"

"Eh..." Emperor Xia opened his mouth, and suddenly looked at Xiao Rui in blank dismay.

Get money to build roads?

Wait, did the two make a mistake?

Emperor Xia glared at Xiao Rui, after all, everything he knew was dictated by Xiao Rui.

Xiao Rui immediately asked: "Fifth brother, you take concubines to get money, and the purpose of getting money is to build roads?"

Xiao Yuan nodded, and said: "That's right! When I left the capital, I kept my father's teachings in mind and asked me to do everything myself. Therefore, when I first arrived in Fuzhou, I felt that the officialdom was in disrepair for a long time, which seriously affected Fuzhou's foreign affairs. This is why I wanted to build roads. But when I was the governor of Fuzhou, I realized how difficult it is to ask the household department for money, and I didn’t want to bother my father, because I only knew how troublesome government affairs were when I was in charge of the state government! "

"So I had no choice but to get money by myself. Although Fuzhou is remote, there are famous families in each prefecture. If so, I should get money from them. Unfortunately, I was wrong and took money from them. Money is harder than plucking wool from sheep, and they will feel sorry for them if they take out a hundred taels, and let them build roads? It's delusional!"

Seeing this, Xiao Yuan burst into tears.

Emperor Xia had already sat back in his seat, glared at Xiao Rui fiercely, and said, "Speak up!"

Xiao Rui was a little embarrassed, he couldn't blame himself, who would have thought that Xiao Yuan took a concubine to build roads, Nima, you are still a man!

Xiao Yuan shook his head, and said: "Father taught me the right thing, I did wrong, I have no ability, I can only think of such bad ideas, which hurt the face of the royal family. He wants to build roads, so he accepts concubines widely. With the bond of marriage, his sons and ministers can ask for dowry. Up to now, they have collected four million taels, and they will soon be able to renovate the whole territory of Fuzhou. Brand new!"

"These days, I have personally gone to the fields to inspect the harvest of the people. I am deeply impressed by the hard work of the people. Now that I have lost weight and tanned, it is all because I went outside to inspect the people's livelihood. Of course, there are also some reasons. It’s because the climate is unacceptable, and the appetite is bad!”

Xiao Yuan vividly portrays his diligence and serving the people very vividly.

"Fifth brother, is yours real?" Xiao Rui couldn't help asking.

Emperor Xia also showed a suspicious look, yes, this is not like his own son, and the military officer beside him is not like this, doesn't he like to trample on the cultivated land when he has nothing to do?

Xiao Yuan said angrily: "King Xian, if you continue to slander me, don't blame me for disregarding brotherhood and wanting to sue you for the crime of framing in front of my father! If you don't believe me, you can follow me back to Fujian. Work out the details and process of road construction! The cost has been inspected! My father and son can stand the test!"

Emperor Xia said: "Okay, then I will briefly study it. How is Daxia's official road built?"

As expected, Xiao Yuan opened his mouth and came: "Father, most of the official roads in Daxia, first tidy up the ground, then tamp it with loess soil, and then burn the soil again with mellow soil and rice milk, so that there will be no insects and insects. Grass is growing, and secondly..."

Listening to Xiao Yuan's eloquence, Emperor Xia nodded approvingly. Next, Emperor Xia asked a few more questions about spring plowing and autumn harvest. Although Xiao Yuan was not very proficient, he knew all about it.

This made Emperor Xia quite gratified, if he came to Fuzhou to sit on the table and be a happy prince, he would definitely not know these things. Therefore, Xiao Yuan proved his diligence.

"That's right, that's right. I wronged you just now. It's all the fault of King Xian. I'll let him apologize to you. It's him who slandered you. I'll punish him properly!" Emperor Xia got up and patted Xiao Yuan's face. Shoulder.

Tears welled up in Xiao Yuan's eyes instantly. What could be happier than being affirmed by his father after his hard work?

"I will always remember what my father said, deeply remember the five things in my heart, and never dare to forget!" Xiao Yuan said solemnly.

Xiao Rui rubbed his nose, this time he really wronged Xiao Yuan, so he cupped his hands deeply and said, "Fifth brother, my brother wronged you, I am very sorry, please reprimand me!"

Xiao Yuan held up Xiao Rui's hands and said, "Seventh brother cares about me, as an elder brother, how could he be angry? You can't say that again."

Xiao Rui immediately looked deeply at Xiao Yuan, he really changed, this is a growth in life, if such Xiao Yuan can return to Beijing to fight for the crown prince, he will not be used as a spearman like before.

Emperor Xia was happy, so he asked Hai Dafu to prepare a table of delicacies, and the father and son had a good drink. Of course, on the wine table, Emperor Xia also asked Xiao Yuan to stop taking concubines. The idea is good, but the method is a bad idea. If he is a well-known family in Fuzhou, he, Xiao Yuan, can't even think of making any good achievements in Fuzhou.

At the same time, Emperor Xia also made a promise that he would return to the capital in a short time, and then he would arrange for the household department to allocate silver taels to repair the official roads in Fuzhou.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Emperor Xia was overwhelmed with alcohol and went to rest.

Only Xiao Rui and Xiao Yuan were left.

Xiao Yuanduan toasted Xiao Rui with a glass of wine, and then asked the King of Chu about Xiao Yiheng's recent situation.

Although Xiao Yuan has matured, his hatred for the King of Chu has not diminished in the slightest. After all, it was Xiao Yiheng who framed him, so he missed the position of prince and became the first prince to be demoted.

Coupled with the close relationship between him and the sixth prince Xiao Ming, and because Xiao Yiheng was stripped of his title and demoted to a commoner because of Xiao Yiheng, Xiao Yuan held even more grudges.

What can Xiao Rui do, of course, to make Xiao Yiheng's current situation even better, the concubine is pregnant, and the contacts in the court are flourishing, it's a happy event!

The more Xiao Yuan listened, the more angry he became, he vented his anger in the wine and took a few sips, then he didn't want to mention him, so he changed the subject.

"By the way, seventh brother, Fuzhou is close to Dayan Kingdom, and with the development of trade between the two countries, Licheng Mansion has become a bustling commercial city. When I visited Licheng Mansion a few days ago, I heard from the merchants of Dayan that something happened in Dayan State. A few big things." Xiao Yuan thought of this and started chatting.

Xiao Rui asked, "Oh? What's the big deal?"

Xiao Yuan said: "Emperor Yan is old, but he controls the court and refuses to abdicate. In addition, Crown Prince Yan is fatuous and Princess Yan Linglong is capable, so the structure of Great Yan Kingdom is very delicate. Not long ago, news came from Prince Yan's residence that Prince Yan The concubine of the crown prince is pregnant with a rich body, and a mother is more expensive than a child, and this time, Crown Prince Yan has further consolidated his position by relying on the unborn grandson of the emperor."

"The second thing seems to be affected by the concubine's pregnancy. Princess Yan Linglong publicly chose her son-in-law. It is said that there is already a candidate. During this period of time, the auspicious date will be determined, and she will get married and start a family."

After hearing this, Xiao Rui nodded with a smile.

In Yan Linglong's letter to herself, she was planning to get married, but she didn't expect that she had finally chosen someone, and the opening of the house was imminent.

In addition, the pregnancy of Crown Prince Yan's concubine must be Yan Linglong's masterpiece. Yan Linglong had passed, Crown Prince Yan was not a womanizer, and the Crown Princess was just a display to deceive others. It must be that Yan Linglong followed Xiao Rui's calculations and used medicine to make Crown Prince Yan visit the Crown Princess and successfully conceived.

Next, Yan Linglong will get married and start a family. Once the eldest grandson of the emperor is born, she will be able to assassinate Prince Yan, and she will try to seize the throne in another way.

Yan Linglong, a girl, is also heartbroken for the position of supremacy.
