264. Problems and contradictions
April 26, when the palace of Prince Yong came, it was undoubtedly a good day, on this day, Yinzhen went through the canonization ceremony, paid tribute to the ancestors of heaven and earth, and officially became the prince, and his road to succession achieved a phased victory.
With the new prince, for most of the courtiers, it is also a good thing, from the beginning of the forty years, many people are involved in the whirlpool of the battle for succession, some people are out of the initiative, want to seize the dragon work, but there are also many people are passively involved, they from the heart, do not care too much about who is the emperor, but, the chaotic situation does not allow them to stay out of the matter, they do not have the capital and confidence to maintain neutrality, they hope that the court situation is stable, they can live a stable life, with the new prince, this is a good signal, they can justifiably obey the emperor to assist the prince, and no longer have to consider the olive branch of others。
There are not a few people who hold this kind of thinking, even some originally wanted to fight for the dragon's merit, after more than ten years of chaos, they began to miss a peaceful life, it is really the situation for a while, the slightest carelessness will stand in the wrong team, and the consequences of standing in the wrong team are too serious, there is a chance to turn back, if it happens again, then I am afraid that it will be a catastrophe, they are also tired of tossing, and they can't afford to toss, many people are now seeking stability.
And these people who stand on the wrong side and want to turn back, including almost all the original parties, the diehards who support the boss and the abolished prince, although they will not switch to Yinzhen's disciples, but, seriously they don't have much enmity with Yinzhen, Yinzhen is on the throne, they may be a little more difficult, but they don't have to worry about being liquidated, for them, this is still a relatively good candidate; , so those who wanted to make trouble were stopped by Yinxi.
The people of these factions are safe, and the neutrals have no reason to make trouble, and the people who seek stability are even more eager to do so, so for Yinzhen being made the crown prince, the court is surprisingly calm, and only a few Yinzhi diehards have raised some objections, but unfortunately they are small in number and have little voice, and they can't make any waves at all.
Yinzhen became the crown prince, after the identity changed, many things are different from before, first of all, the residence, the original prince lived in the Yuqing Palace in the Forbidden City, but to be honest, the Yuqing Palace is a high specification, but the area is really not large, it is more than enough as an office space, but if you want to move all the family members of Prince Yong's mansion in, it will be too crowded. I don't know if the emperor has considered this problem, but someone reminded him after all, so the emperor's will soon came, Prince Yong's mansion is still used as the prince's residence, but the name is changed to the prince's mansion, and Yuqing Palace is used as Yinzhen's office. It can also be seen from this to the will that the emperor still cares about the dignity of the new prince, and this makes all those who seek stability feel relieved, there is no contradiction between the current boss and the future boss, they don't have to be caught in the middle, no matter what, it's a good thing.
Yinzhen's identity was upgraded, and his wives and children naturally rose with the tide, Wulanala was undoubtedly the crown princess, Shu Yierha and Nian's followed and became the prince's side concubines, according to the regulations, the prince can have four side concubines, but Yinzhen did not particularly promote anyone, and other women who gave birth to him were all concubines.
Originally, the crown princess still had the right and duty to assist in palace affairs, but it turned out that when the Guerjia clan was the crown princess, she didn't interfere much in palace affairs, and now it's the turn of the Ulanala clan, of course she won't fight for this, the Guarjia clan still lives in the palace, and she, the crown princess who lives outside the palace, can she still enter the palace every day to take care of official business? She attaches more importance to power, but it is not enough to get to this point, and when she becomes the queen, the palace affairs will be justified in her hands, and there is no need to rush for a while.
For Shu Yierha, the promotion from the prince's side to the prince's side concubine, except for the change of the title, it does not have much impact, and the residence has not changed, what should be done or what is usually done, there is Yinzhen outside, and there is the princess at home, if it weren't for Yinzhen being busier than before, she wouldn't have realized this change.
But the Song family and the Geng family are much happier, they didn't think that they could still be so beautiful, now Yinzhen is the crown prince, and when the emperor dies, he will be the emperor, doesn't that mean that they can also get an imperial concubine? Realizing this, these two people who have no competitive heart are also a little fluctuating, and their mood is called a comfort, and Song's menopausal symptoms have been reduced a lot.
Not to mention these women, even the children in the family, there have been some changes in their psychology, for example, Ergege, originally at most a Heshuo Gege, but now I can think about Princess Gulun, she is the only concubine in the family!
His own Lao Tzu was promoted to become the crown prince, which had a great impact on Hongxuan's life, and he was studying in the palace with Hongshi at home, originally because of the emperor's blue eyes, he was quite eye-catching, and now it is even more eye-catching, and some ill-intentioned voices even began to appear around him, leading him to compete with Hongshi, saying some words, aiming to separate their brothers.
This little trick Hongxuan can't see it, of course he can't be fooled, but he doesn't dare to guarantee that Hongshi will not be moved, just like he can't be sure that Hongshi has the same great ambitions as him, and people's minds have always been the most unpredictable.
Hongxuan's ambition was established relatively early, so he considered the problem of brother competition very early, and saw with his own eyes that the uncles fought for a miserable one, the brotherly love is not taken into account at all, that is looking forward to the other party's unlucky thoughts, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is an enemy, but he does not want to make such a stiff fight with his brother, in his good expectations, is to hope that the brothers with a mind can compete fairly, everyone has their own ability, don't use too inferior means, capable of the upper position, everyone fights for it, and don't affect the feelings too much.
This was Hongxuan's original naïve idea, but later when he saw the emperor's ruthlessness towards his sons, and Shu Yierha's analysis, he also realized that his idea might be too illusory, if everyone argued, even if he could maintain a gentlemanly demeanor, how could he guarantee that others would be the same? People's hearts have always been dirtier than the dirtiest, this fact Hongxuan has long known, so it is impossible for him to continue to maintain naïve expectations, and began to consider some more cruel realities.
At this time, Yinzhen became the crown prince, which means that he is one step closer to the throne, Hongxuan has not had time to be happy for a few days, and the people who cling to him have not appeared yet, and there is a group of people who divide him and Hongshi, he will not be confused by such clumsy means, but what is Hongshi's side, he is not too sure, he doesn't know what Hongshi will think and do, he and Hongxuan have a good relationship in recent years, but this does not mean that they will not become opponents, Hongxuan originally wanted to talk to Hongshi frankly, but after thinking about it, he still dispelled this idea, since his ultimate goal has not changed, it seems that there is no point in talking more, or take a step and see a step, Before there is no conflict between the two sides, everyone is still good brothers, and when the day comes to the opposite side, then each of them will rely on their abilities, and it is too early to say anything.
Hongxuan made up his mind and didn't pay attention to those provocative words at all, but for those who offered slander, he still secretly paid attention to it, and he disposed of what he could dispose of, and what he couldn't dispose of was secretly kept in his heart and prepared to settle it in the future.
Although Hongxuan decided to make a decision, his mood would still be affected, and he couldn't tell others, seize the opportunity to go home, and talk to Shu Yierha, Shu Yierha knew that this was inevitable, and seeing his son like this, he was also distressed, just like Hongyun's daughter-in-law, it was originally her niece, and her cousin's family, they were all close and close, and they had to stand on the opposite side in the future, no matter how unwilling they were, they couldn't change, she was so much older than Hongxuan, and she had to be depressed for a while when she encountered these, not to mention that Hongxuan's relationship with Hongshi was really good, and it was inevitable that he would be depressed。
Shu Yierha couldn't say anything beautiful to comfort Hongxuan, she also knew that what Hongxuan needed now was not comfort, but a place to talk, so she didn't interrupt Hongxuan's chatter, just kept looking at him gently, patting him comfortably from time to time, her son chose a difficult road, the pressure along the way will only get heavier and heavier, some she can share, some can only watch him bear it himself, although she is distressed, but she is not worried, because she believes that her son can afford it.
Shu Yierha and Hongxuan's troubles, Geng also experienced it at this time, she was originally a person with no ambition, this kind of person is easy to satisfy, so she can enter the fourth master's mansion, can give birth to a son safely, and the son is still healthy, she is already very content, and began to think about waiting for her son to grow up, marry a daughter-in-law with a gentle temperament to her son, and give birth to a few grandchildren, this life is complete, as for the position of the son in the palace, Geng has never thought about it.
But now it's different, if the children in the house want to fight, it's not a son of the world, it's the throne! The throne, thinking of these two words, Rao is Geng's heart is indifferent, and he can't help but beat his heart faster, if he says that he hopes to be the emperor and can still be unmoved, but he really can't find a few people, in this position, if he hasn't even thought about it, it is undoubtedly a lie.
Geng is an ordinary person, naturally not exempt from vulgarity, when realizing that his Hongday also has the possibility of becoming the emperor, it is inevitable to fantasize about that beautiful scene, however, Geng is not an ambitious person, nor will he be shallow to see the situation clearly, after a moment of excitement and fantasy, she quickly returned to reality, and immediately realized that if Hongday wants to fight, the biggest competitor is only the children of Shu Yierha.
In Geng's heart, she never had the idea of working against Shu Yierha, she always felt that it was good to follow Shu Yierha, Shu Yierha protected their mother and son, and they would also support Shu Yierha, but at this moment, she hesitated.
According to Geng's heart, she doesn't care very much about whether she can be the queen mother, she doesn't have that much ambition, so she won't have too high expectations, but Geng is a mother, and her love for her son is bottomless, so she doesn't want to break Hongday's thoughts because she doesn't fight, she can't be so selfish, she wants to live a stable life, Hongday may not be willing, if Hongday wants to fight vigorously once, she will only support, and will not say anything against it.
Geng's mind is sober and aware of this, so she is very tormented in her heart, and she doesn't know how to face Shu Yierha for a while, Song called her to go to Haitang Courtyard to play together, but she made excuses to push, Song is not stupid, she can't guess once or twice, many times, where is she still not aware of the problem, but because Hongtian is still young, things are not a word, Song's brain hole can't be so big, I can't think of where the reason is, I made a bunch of question marks, I can't get the answer from Geng's here, she naturally went to Shu Yierha to answer。
Shu Yierha didn't know the reason at first, but because she had already heard Hongxuan pour bitter water once, she was still sensitive at this time, and she quickly had a flash of inspiration in her mind, thinking of Hongyang, thinking of the struggle for the position, and thinking of these, Shu Yierha couldn't help but want to smile bitterly, it turned out that in the place where she didn't pay attention, there was still a person who wanted to turn friends into enemies! This is really a headache.
However, Shu Yierha's flash of inspiration was just her own speculation, she didn't want to tell Song Shiming, strictly speaking, they have been friends all these years, but at the beginning, it was only out of an alliance of interests, and then because of the separation of interests, there seems to be nothing that can't be said, but, after getting along in the past few years, everyone is also very happy, how can they not be emotional? A few days ago, everyone was still in harmony, this coldly said that they would have to fight each other in the future, who could accept it all at once?
Shu Yierha is a little unacceptable, it seems that Geng's doesn't seem to be very adaptable, at the moment Song doesn't know, but she doesn't need to worry about it in advance, so Shu Yierha didn't tell Song Ming, just said that she had a little clue, wait for her to take care of it, and then go to Geng's to talk in detail, and said that Song should leave it alone, they will deal with it, Song listened with a little unhappiness on his face, but he didn't say anything, Shu Yierha was smiling bitterly in her heart, because she didn't know if she could handle it well.
