Chapter 57 Reunion

Treasure map.

Xiao Junye didn't have an extreme desire for gold and silver treasures, but he knew in his heart that Xiao Wuchen needed money.

Although the Daxing Dynasty seems to be stable and prosperous for the time being, behind this prosperity is that there are still barbarians in the Daxing Dynasty, and one-third of the territory is still controlled by the vassal kings.Moreover, these vassal kings can not only enjoy the taxes and corvees of the vassal land, but also enjoy independent military power, and the emperor of the Daxing Dynasty cannot interfere with these military powers.

Under such circumstances, Xiao Wuchen, as an emperor, is naturally short of money.

Therefore, Xiao Junye hesitated, not because he was hesitant about how to use these treasures once they were dug out, but because of what reason these treasures should be dug up, and then let Wuchen accept them, and believed that this treasure was just an accident. Does it matter what your background is?

Xiao Junye turned the wrench in his hand, but did not move for a long time.

Perhaps, he should wait a little longer?

When you come up with a suitable reason, or when you copy the old house of the next vassal who refused to obey, find the right time to put those treasures in?Then tell his Wu Chen that these treasures were found with that feudal lord?

As for the prince himself...

Xiao Junye's eyes flickered slightly. Naturally, he would not stay with this person.

After thinking about the countermeasures in this way, Xiao Junye heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, and then began to carry out the next thing.

Originally, he had already captured the last vassal king, but because of the treasure on the treasure map, he restrained his eagerness to go back to see Wu Chen, so he had to postpone the matter.

Now that he has a solution to the matter, he will naturally not delay the matter any longer.

He wants to deal with everything here as soon as possible, and then go back to see his Wuchen as soon as possible.

He has gone through too many dust-free days that miss him.

He couldn't wait any longer, and he didn't want to wait any longer.

Xiao Junye took out his Wuchen stuff around his neck for more than ten years, kissed it tenderly, raised the corners of his lips, and felt that he was the luckiest person in the world.

He has people he likes, and those who happen to like him also like him.

And they also planned that in the future, the imperial power in the world will never abandon each other, and there will be only one other person for each other. Who can compare with such affection?

They must be the luckiest and happiest couple in the world.

Thinking of this, Xiao Junye couldn't hide the smile on his face.

It wasn't until someone came looking for him outside that he slowly put away his smile and walked outside.

——Well, although he is eager to leave, even if he wants to leave, he must settle everything here and turn these fiefdoms into his dust-free territory. They will be more at ease in the future, won't they?

This world is his Wuchen's world, and he is his Wuchen's husband, so he naturally has to take on this responsibility, so that his Wuchen can live a peaceful and leisurely life, and live a long life with him , grow old forever.

Let's not mention how Xiao Junye, who is far away in the south of the Yangtze River, thinks.

However, Xiao Wuchen was annoyed when he once again received a note from the ministers - asking him to hurry up and choose the note for the big wedding.

Thinking about it, he has been enthroned for more than half a year now, and Emperor Chengguang's filial piety period has passed - father's filial piety was originally a year, but Xiao Wuchen is the emperor, and the emperor's filial piety has always been replaced by the day and the month, so he raised his filial piety. The period is long past.

Everyone feared that the unpredictable new emperor would cause some displeasure, so they waited and waited. Seeing that more than half a year had passed, the new emperor hadn't even the slightest sign of accepting a concubine after being elected, and they were all focused on political affairs. With the cutting of the feudal clan, someone had to come out, wanting the new emperor to consider his life-long affairs.

Then when the first person spoke, the people who followed discovered that although their new emperor's temper seemed a little unpredictable, he really seldom got angry when it came to matters in the court, and everything was in order. within.

Following such an emperor, many courtiers breathed a sigh of relief.

However, after letting go of this breath, more and more people began to submit papers, imploring the new emperor to marry a wife and concubines quickly—even if he really didn't want to marry a queen, he should at least accept a few concubines into the palace to reproduce Heirs are.

What's more, these people didn't dare to say something - they all said that the new emperor had been in poor health since he was a child. If the new emperor didn't get married soon, and if the new emperor suddenly fell ill and passed away one day, how would the government be stable?It would be fine if the new emperor at that time had heirs, if not... Wouldn't the Daxing Dynasty be going through another chaos?

Of course, some people were more worried. When the new emperor was still the crown prince, he rarely had women around him.The first emperor didn't like the prince's close proximity to women, and the crown prince's health was not as good as others', and the imperial doctor had indeed told the prince not to be close to women.However, the prince is now nine out of ten, and it has been three years since the imperial doctor said that he can only approach women after the age of 16.

And in the past three years, they never heard of any close court ladies around the new emperor.Even after succeeding to the throne, the new emperor never granted titles to the maids around him, etc.

Thinking about it so carefully, doesn't that mean...

Although some thoughtful people have such thoughts in their hearts, these thoughts are too absurd and unbelievable, and they are also thoughts about the new emperor... so they dare not speak to others at all. Thinking about this silently in my heart, and then after finding out that I could get the booklet to ask the new emperor to get married, I spared no effort to ask the new emperor to get married soon.

Even Prime Minister Zuo, who was extremely loyal to Xiao Wuchen, couldn't help persuading Xiao Wuchen to get married quickly.

"Perhaps your majesty thinks that you are still young, and it's okay to get married in a few years. However, although there are many noble daughters in this family, there are also good and bad noble daughters, and they are uneven. Why didn't your majesty speak out early, and then choose A good lady to be the mother of this country?" Prime Minister Zuo persuaded, "Besides, although there is no shortage of heirs in the royal family, your Majesty may not know that the first few emperors were all married for a few years. The heirs will come later. Your Majesty is now starting to choose the queen and concubine. It will be a few months before the wedding or the concubine is welcomed into the palace. It is already April, and the harem is full, and it should be the end of the year. When His Majesty has an heir, maybe next year, maybe three or four years later. By then, His Majesty will be about 23 years old, and it will be too late to become a father by then."

Prime Minister Zuo talked earnestly for a long time, in short, it was really not too late for Xiao Wuchen to start choosing concubines.

Xiao Wuchen felt helpless, but since he had already planned to go on with Xiao Junye, he naturally didn't plan to choose a queen or anything.

He knew his own temperament, if he had never been happy, following Prime Minister Zuo's idea, it would not be impossible to meet some women in the palace and have children like ordinary people.

However, he now has an uncle and someone who is happy.Moreover, this happy person is especially jealous and likes to monopolize him, Xiao Wuchen felt helpless, so naturally he could only let the uncle who was more important to him-compared to those women he didn't know at all. The child who didn't even have a horoscope, at this moment it is obvious that the emperor's uncle is more important.

Xiao Wuchen looked at Prime Minister Zuo and shook his head slightly.

Of course, there were many other reasons for him to refuse this matter besides his concern about Xiao Junye's feelings, but obviously, for Xiao Wuchen, Xiao Junye was the biggest reason among them.However, it was because of Xiao Junye that he absolutely couldn't speak.

At least, the current Xiao Wuchen must not say that he has someone he likes, and that person is Uncle Huang.They have already planned that the two of them will join hands in this life and never get along with other people.

If in the future he cleans up all the vassal kings of the Daxing Dynasty and holds the imperial power tightly in his hands, maybe he can gradually reveal this matter to those close to him.But now...

Xiao Wuchen sighed inwardly, if the emperor's uncle is just an ordinary courtier, or a distant relative who has been with him for five times, then that's fine.When it is made public, no one will say anything.

Uncle Huang is not only a man like him, but also his "relative".At least on the surface, the two of them are related by blood.

That being the case, even if Xiao Wuchen has great power in his hands in the future, it will be difficult for him to fully disclose the matter to the public.

Xiao Wuchen thought so, he could only treat the emperor better in private.Therefore, seeing that Prime Minister Zuo wanted to persuade him, he had a headache for a while, so he pretended to be unwell, and simply drove Prime Minister Zuo away.

Zuo Cheng was more helpless than Xiao Wuchen, but seeing the dodge in Xiao Wuchen's eyes, he had no choice but to bow and salute and leave.

After Prime Minister Zuo left, Xiao Wuchen continued to deal with political affairs.

Eunuch Ruan watched from the side, feeling that Xiao Wuchen was confused.How can you refuse to marry a wife and concubine?

If Xiao Wuchen was in poor health in the past and was not suitable for doing such things, then no matter what Eunuch Ruan thought in his heart, he would feel that those who forced Xiao Wuchen to marry a wife and concubine must be harming Xiao Wuchen.

But now, Xiao Wuchen's body is already healed, why does Xiao Wuchen refuse these things?

Even if it is for King Zhao—well, now that he has become the regent—won’t the regent have a day to marry a wife and have children?

Even if the regent can never marry a wife for His Majesty's sake, can he still never have children for His Majesty's sake?Inheritance by offspring is a major event, let alone people like them who have no roots, whether it is His Majesty or the Regent, how can such an honorable person not have a son to pass on to future generations?

Xiao Wuchen probably guessed what Eunuch Ruan was thinking.However, although Eunuch Ruan is someone close to him, the emperor's uncle is someone who cannot be replaced by anyone.And the relationship between him and the emperor's uncle is definitely not something that can be resolved by mere heirs.

What's more, there is one thing in Xiao Wuchen's heart that he has never mentioned to anyone.

Even if you have an heir, what can you do?

For example, Uncle Huang never knew who his biological parents were since he was a child. Even if he really had a son, who should he be named?Whose inheritance?Isn't the matter of inheritance a joke?

For example, he himself was sick and weak since he was a child. Although his body was difficult and he was in constant pain all day long, his father loved him so much that he felt that being his father's son was the greatest blessing in his life.However, who would have expected that when his health gradually recovered, his royal father would become more and more alienated from him, and even thought of planning to make his health worse, and then die young like in his previous life, so he would have to pass the throne to his royal father. Ideas for other sons?

His father treated him like this, Xiao Wuchen respected him and hated him in his heart, if it wasn't for the name he had used since he was a child, if it wasn't for his status, he wouldn't be allowed to change his name, he would even want to change his name .

As for the succession to the heirs... Xiao Wuchen really didn't know how he was going to pass on everything about a father who wanted to ruin his body in his later years and died young.

Thinking of these, Xiao Wuchen's eyes dimmed.

He was a little unhappy.

However, his unhappiness did not last long.

In June of the first year of Chengning, the regent took back the domain of the last vassal who participated in the forced palace, and returned with a large army and a large amount of treasure.

Regardless of the objections of his ministers, Emperor Chengning personally led people out of the city to greet him.

The regent was ecstatic, and since he saw Emperor Chengning, he has been smiling all the way.

After the regent followed Emperor Chengning into the palace that day and reported to Emperor Chengning about the seizing of the feudal land, it was already the evening of that day, and it was time for the key to be released at the palace gate.

It was inconvenient for Emperor Chengning to stay with the Regent, so he had to send a young eunuch to send the Regent back to the mansion to see if the mansion was ready to deal with the Regent's affairs.

The regent raised the corners of his lips, and led the shy little eunuch with his head down all the way back to the regent's mansion not far from the palace.

In the palace, Eunuch Ruan's face turned livid after hearing Ah Yao and Ah Zhuang's words.

Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you are so foolish!
