Chapter 1333 Erchen really knew it was wrong
Grandma Yuan's words were not allowed to defend whether she was biased. She basically decided on his fault before analyzing it.
Emperor Ming Yuan’s eyes were obscure, and he looked at Grandma Yuan, “I would like to hear it carefully!”
Grandma Yuan said kindly: "I have always spoken unscrupulously because I have eaten for a few more years. I ask the emperor to forgive the offense first.
The prince is the crown prince, your son. Even if you ask him to suffer some pain and a little grievance, everyone will feel sorry for him at most, but they dare not care about you, because everyone understands that you are the king and father, and you must be good for him.
But this time you hurt the Supreme Emperor and Chu Fu. They both wore the last bit of hair for the sake of the Northern Tang Dynasty. And the most wrong thing is that you involved Concubine Hu and the Tenth Prince, and once again confirmed your bias in front of the Supreme Emperor, because the Supreme Emperor told you that the affairs of the five cities were state affairs and plans for the Northern Tang Dynasty in the next twenty or thirty years. You are focusing on not to wrong the Tenth Prince, you are talking about family affairs.
For the sake of family affairs, you ignore state affairs. If your identity changes, you are in the position of the Supreme Emperor and the Prince is in your position. Will you be disappointed?
You must remember that besides being the emperor of Concubine Hu, you are also the emperor of the world."
Emperor Mingyuan looked at her in a daze, "Speak!"
Grandma Yuan said: "You said that the Supreme Emperor is partial and only likes the prince and does not like the tenth prince. That is why you regard the Supreme Emperor as an old man in the family, but often he is in the identity of the Supreme Emperor of Northern Tang. So when he discusses state affairs with you, he is the identity of a king and father to you, and for the two grandchildren, he only sees whether it is beneficial to the future development of the Northern Tang Dynasty. As for privately and without discussing state affairs, does the Supreme Emperor treat the Tenth Prince unfairly?"
Emperor Ming Yuan thought for a while, "If you abandon this matter, you really didn't treat it badly, just..." Grandma Yuan smiled, "It's just that there is no special treatment, special pampering, right?
Because you value Concubine Hu and the Tenth Prince, you think that everyone should spoil their mother and son, and you will be happy. This is actually understandable. Old man prefers the prince, so old man also hopes that everyone prefers him like old man.”
Emperor Mingyuan looked at her, "So the old lady is a wise man."
Grandma Yuan continued to smile, "But I like the prince because I know that the prince does his best for the family, country and the world, and works tirelessly. From people's livelihood to war with Beimo, the prince is loyal to his life. The people respect him not because he is the prince, but because of his loyalty and courage, his people's hopes are accumulated bit by bit, and he uses his life to accumulate."
Emperor Mingyuan's eyes were moved, "I know, so I am very glad that the Supreme Emperor insisted on making him the crown prince, and I am proud of him."
"Yes, as the father of the prince, you should be proud of it, and the Supreme Emperor is also proud of him. When you were fighting for the five cities with the Supreme Emperor, you said that you could have given the tenth prince a richer city. On the other hand, if the Supreme Emperor just gave it to the grandson, he could also give it a richer city. Why would he compete with you for these five cities?
The emperor thought that he was really good to him now that he was pampering the tenth prince?
Have you ever thought about whether your favoritism will lead to a deviant personality?
Even laying the trouble for the Northern Tang Dynasty?”
Emperor Mingyuan was shocked and looked at her, "Has the Supreme Emperor ever said something to his wife?"
Grandma Yuan nodded, "Yes, Lao Shi talked to the Supreme Emperor in private. His anger comes from your inseparable public and private affairs, and lowering state affairs to the level of family affairs. He is sure that you have achieved political achievements in governing the Northern Tang Dynasty over the years, but he is old, and he hopes you can be better because he cannot always stand behind you to help you with everything. He hopes that you are not biased, because the title of the prince is determined, and to consolidate the position of the prince in the court requires your trust and appropriate delegation, just like his delegation of power over the years."
Emperor Mingyuan's heart gradually became clear, "What else did the Supreme Emperor say?"
Grandma Yuan whispered: "He hopes you see the prince."
"See the prince?
What's the meaning?"
Emperor Mingyuan was stunned.
Grandma Yuan had a passionate look in her eyes, "Seeing him, seeing everything he did, from the identity of a father, seeing him, the praise he received can come from the king, but more often, hope comes from the father.
The prince is your son, the outstanding young man is your son, you need to be truly proud of this son, not just the prince.”
Emperor Mingyuan felt a cluster of flames in his blood, and he slowly walked in his limbs and bones. Lao Wu... His firm face flashed through his mind, his words and deeds, his decisive behavior, his intelligence, his determination, his wise and wise decisions, and his son.
"He is the prince you personally issued the order, not the Supreme Emperor."
After Grandma Yuan said this, she stood up and bowed down, then turned around and left! Emperor Mingyuan closed his eyes. What happened in the past two or three days had been intertwined in his heart. He felt his grievance and reluctance, and he had reflected on himself. However, the old lady's words made him feel enlightened and he woke up.
But rather than saying that the old lady said this, it was actually the old lady who came to convey it to the Supreme Emperor, and the Supreme Emperor still did not give up on him.
There was fog gradually in his eyes, and he suddenly stood up, "Stand in the Qiankun Palace!"
After a stick of incense, he knelt outside the Qiankun Hall and kowtowed to the hall, "My son came to apologize. My son already knew where he was wrong. Please calm down your anger, please forgive me, and please allow me to enter the hall!"
After a while, the Supreme Emperor's deep voice came from the hall, "Go to the side hall to wait for the orphan!"
Emperor Mingyuan stood up, unable to bear the tears in his eyes. He wiped it with one hand and strode towards the side hall. After waiting outside, the palace servant came out to invite him. After pushing the door and entering, he headed straight for the Supreme Emperor, kneeling in front of the Supreme Emperor with a thud, and even said: "Father, my son is wrong!"
The Supreme Emperor looked at the emperor kneeling in front of him and felt mixed feelings. He asked the old lady to go there, and he asked the old lady to tell him what he said. He was sure. If he blamed the old lady for saying this, then there would be no need to maintain the relationship between the father and son.
But if he wakes up, it will be beneficial to the future of Northern Tang, and he will also be the emperor of Northern Tang.
When Emperor Mingyuan was so sad and excited that he cried, he was completely unaware that the Supreme Emperor had the idea of abolishing the emperor.
"Get up!"
The Supreme Emperor slowly spoke.
Emperor Mingyuan's lips twitched. He looked at the Supreme Emperor and was unwilling to stand up. He still said even more hoarsely: "Father, my son is really wrong, he is very wrong. I've disappointed you."
"You said, where are you wrong?"
The Supreme Emperor looked at him.
Emperor Mingyuan was full of pain and regretted it. "The son's minister was wrong in not distinguishing between national affairs and family affairs. The son's minister was wrong in favor but ignored the overall situation. The son's mistake was to act like a king to his son, alienate his family affection, but he also showed a kind fatherly attitude towards the young elders. He did not let him know how to respect the king and father since he was a child, so he acted recklessly and boldly. The son's minister realized that he was wrong. The son's minister's favor for Concubine Hu led to the inseparable harmony in the harem, which hurt the hearts of the concubines who had accompanied him for many years.
The son-in-law's favoritism towards Xiao Lao Shi also led to his distorted and domineering nature, causing their brothers to lose their affinity and trust, and even causing trouble for the Northern Tang Dynasty."
The Supreme Emperor locked him in his eyes and said hoarsely: "I hope, you really know the problem."
"My son knows!"
Emperor Mingyuan slowly raised his head and looked at the Supreme Emperor, "I finally understand what you said in the past. Once you become the emperor, you will lose yourself again!"
