The Neon Tower

"Reporting to the emperor, I think the East Palace should be the eldest prince." The old man dressed as a court man stood on the court hall and bowed his hands in salute.

"Your Majesty, please think twice. The Eldest Prince is born weak and sick, so he really can't take on this important task. Please also consider the Third Prince. The Third Prince has a pure character..."

"Your Majesty, the third prince has the lowest aptitude among all the princes, please also consider the seventh prince!!"

"emperor..."

"Your family, please be safe and don't be impatient!!!" The emperor yelled helplessly while holding his already sore forehead.

Great, the emperor couldn't help mocking in his heart: almost all the princes who thought they had a chance have wooed their henchmen, and before I died, they were vying for the position one by one.

The old eunuch Feng Zheng walked slowly to the dragon chair with a tray, knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, this is the name tag of all the princes."

"Feng Zheng? Rheumatism again?" The emperor frowned, looked at Feng Zheng and said.

"Hehe, thank you, the emperor, for your concern. This servant is getting old...these rainy weather makes me sick." Feng Zheng lowered his head and smiled, because his two thick white eyebrows drooped down, making him smile very kindly .

"I will call the imperial doctor to show you in a while."

"Thank you, Majesty Ron."

The emperor turned his attention back to the name tags, and felt that the number was wrong: "Why aren't the brands of fifth and sixth on it?"

"Your Majesty..." A courtier stood up straight and said in a loud voice: "According to the rules passed down from our ancestors, King Xi and King Ming are not qualified to inherit the Great Order."

"Please enlighten the emperor!!!" All the courtiers immediately knelt down and said in unison.

"A person who inherits the throne must have such qualities as virtue, intelligence, generosity, and reason, and each of my princes possesses these qualities. Why do you deprive two children who are likely to become a generation of wise kings from fighting for their rights because of those rules?" The emperor smiled contemptuously, no wonder the palace didn't recommend the fifth and sixth sons, not even the tenth son. . .Presumably Huier would not contribute money to this group of old courtiers.

"Since every prince has excellent character, please choose among the princes who are qualified to inherit. As for King Xi and King Ming, they have already received titles and supreme treatment, which is honorable enough."

"...Today's discussion ends here first, let me retire all of you."

All the ministers glanced at each other, and then exited the hall in an orderly manner.The emperor squeezed the space between his brows, and sat on the dragon chair exhausted.

"Your Majesty, go back and rest when you're tired. Think about the child slowly."

"I'm running out of time... If you don't quickly decide on the position of the crown prince, there will be a bloodbath in the future."

"Your majesty, you are now in your prime, how do you start talking about the time is running out?"

The emperor touched the handle of the seat, sneered for a while, and laughed at himself for being stupid-I just want to be a person who is dedicated to the welfare of the society to sit on this dragon chair.

In the harem, two handsome-looking men in fancy clothes and holding paper fans stood side by side, posing in an elegant pose with a smile on their faces, and a girl with a delicate face sat opposite her, dancing on the paper with a paintbrush .

"Ruoning~ Have you painted well? It's been an hour. Do you want to burn us brothers to death?"

"Hurry up, don't rush me."

At this time, the elder brother winked at the younger brother, and the younger brother seemed to understand what the elder brother meant immediately, and the two brothers quietly exchanged positions while Ruoning lowered his head to paint.

Ruoning raised his head, and when he was about to look at the place he hadn't noticed just now, he frowned: "That's not right... just now Wang Mingming was standing on the left side!"

"..." The man on the left said, "Ruoning, this king is King Xi."

"This king is the king of Ming." The man on the right followed suit.

"No! Now the one on the right is King Xi, and the one on the left is King Ming! Hurry up and switch back, I can't draw anymore!"

Ruoning is the daughter of the General's Mansion, she has practiced martial arts since she was a child, and has a straightforward personality. King Xi and King Ming have long been used to her commanding tone.

"Okay, okay!" King Xi used the fingers of his right hand to turn the fan flexibly twice: "It's not fun."

"Zhao Sheng, I said that there is only Ruoning in the world except us, who can tell us apart." Ming Wang smiled and shook his head, continued to look at Ruoning's serious expression, and couldn't move his eyes for some reason.

"Speaking of Ruoning, how did you tell Zhao Tan from me?"

"Tch, since Prince Xi and Prince Ming are two people, they can definitely be distinguished, and don't care how I distinguish them."

"Huh? Isn't this Fan Aiqing's precious daughter Ruoning?" The emperor passed by the back garden and saw the children here, so he walked over.

"Meet the emperor!"

"Meet the Emperor!"

"Meet the Emperor!"

"Excuse me. Hahahaha." The emperor looked at Ruoning and smiled even more happily.In his mind, she must be the candidate for the daughter-in-law. Her family is a loyal family, and the three generations of her ancestors have made a lot of contributions to the imperial court, with outstanding military exploits.Besides, although she is not gentle and virtuous, she is well educated and reasonable, and her painting skills are extraordinary.the most important is. . .Both of his beloved sons liked her.

After chatting for a while, the emperor thought about the memorial and left. Ruoning also said that it was too late to present the completed painting to the imperial concubine, and the remaining two princes left the palace to return to their respective residences.King Xi got married two years ago. He has a main wife and a side wife. The side wife is pregnant, and the main wife is watching the sky and divination every day in her own courtyard, bored.

Among the princes, the emperor likes Lao Shi the most. Not only is Lao Shi the most outstanding in appearance, character and knowledge among so many princes, but he has always been like a wild crane in the clouds, completely indifferent to court affairs.He doesn't have many friends, but he has a discerning eye. Seeing that the youngest son of the iron cavalry general is a proud child, he can actually become a close friend with that genius boy.The emperor thought of this and nodded happily. . .Zhao Yan is not bad. . .
