Chapter 260: The Controversy for the Establishment of Reserves
Although Hibiscus looked at Liu Tong with malicious eyes, because people didn't say anything and didn't do anything, she didn't want to find trouble with the other party because of other people's eyes, so she only raised her vigilance against Liu Tong in her heart and didn't do anything.

Just when Princess Ping broke a lot of money, still didn't learn a lesson, and wanted to toss, Emperor Yonghe, who had been in the palace for a long time, went to court.
Emperor Yonghe saw that his only prince, because Wei Zi wanted to harm people, he was frustrated, and he boycotted the dynasty for two months, and everyone knew that he was in a bad mood, so no one dared to touch that moldy head and ran to urge Emperor Yonghe to go to the court.
When Emperor Yonghe appeared in front of everyone again, it was already the New Year, and out of the first month, everyone found that Emperor Yonghe seemed to be more than ten years old, and his spirit was completely different from before.
Although he went to court again, Emperor Yonghe only went through the motions and retreated.
Although he didn't do anything, since Emperor Yonghe appeared in front of everyone, it means that his mood has slowly recovered, and it can't be done if he doesn't recover - Emperor Yonghe found that the blow this time was too big, and after being too sad, his body was already a little not good.
In any case, his physical condition is deteriorating now, and the matter of establishing a prince will naturally be put on the agenda, but he can't do it one day, and the major event of establishing a prince has not been decided, and when he dies, the world will be in chaos, and then he will go to the Nine Springs, how can he see the ancestors and the ancestors? Besides, if it is the chaos in the world caused by his failure to establish a prince, he who has always wanted to be a good emperor does not want to leave a reputation as a faint monarch in the history books.
Although two months have passed, Emperor Yonghe's mood is still very heavy, but he is not a faint monarch, and he still knows the importance of national affairs, so even if his mood does not recover, he still has to mention the things that should be mentioned.
Maybe he will have an heir, but the prince still has to set up one first, and if he has an heir in the future, he will abolish the prince and set up his son as the prince before it is too late.
So on this day, Emperor Yonghe summoned important ministers to discuss this matter privately.
This kind of thing is not good to solicit opinions in the court, so Emperor Yonghe discussed it privately.
said that it was a discussion, but before Emperor Yonghe mentioned this matter, he had actually pulled the children of the clan over a long time ago, and there was roughly a belly case, if there was no belly case, Emperor Yonghe would not be unprepared and propose this kind of thing, after all, if the ministers wanted to propose a clan that did not agree with their own ideas, wouldn't it be troublesome?
At that moment, Emperor Yonghe said: "I am over forty years old, and I have no heirs under my knees, I want to select one person from the clan and set up it as the East Palace, I don't know if you Aiqing, do you have any suggestions?"
At that moment, the first assistant Zhang said: "I don't know what Your Majesty wants?"
You have to pick one that suits the emperor's heart, otherwise there are so many clans, Your Majesty doesn't draw a range, and they are not easy to pick, rashly say a person, don't Your Majesty still thinks that he has plans in this regard, the person he pushed has been selected a long time ago, and it will be good to fall into the dragon in the future, then it will not be good.
Emperor Yonghe can be regarded as a Ming monarch, but the suspicion of being an emperor is very serious, so he doesn't dare to ask the emperor, and he immediately pushes out someone.
Emperor Yonghe said: "It is related to the Great Zhou Jiangshan Sheji, naturally it is to select the virtuous and beautiful jade generation, those who only know cockfighting lackeys or indulge in beauty all day long can not be chosen, I did not give birth to one or two children for the ancestors, I am already deeply sorry for the ancestors and ancestors, but I don't want to even pick an heir to pick the wrong one, ruining the Jiangshan Sheji." β
When Lord Zhang and others heard Emperor Yonghe's self-criticism, one by one they were frightened and quickly knelt on the ground, and the ministers were still humane: "Your Majesty! When the ministers hear that the lord is worried about the humiliation of the ministers, and the lord humiliates the ministers to death, the ministers will definitely pick out the good materials and good qualities for your majesty to relieve your majesty's worries." β
Emperor Yonghe listened to his words, nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "In addition to being virtuous, in addition, it is best to have a simple family population, if there are orphans, it is the best, I don't want the future prince, because the family has too many people, and is constrained everywhere." β
If Emperor Yonghe said it before, everyone still couldn't figure out what Emperor Yonghe thought, and if Emperor Yonghe said this now, if he didn't understand it, he would be a fool.
If you can't have a bad character, and if you want to be an orphan, isn't that the king of Linjiang County?
If the king of Linjiang County is just an ordinary county king, maybe the big guy doesn't know much about it, but because the other party is the grandson-in-law of the king of Changping County in the heart of the emperor, everyone still knows, knowing that the other party's parents are dead, and the relationship with the eldest brother's family is also very bad, and he can be regarded as a lonely person, and the key is that he doesn't mess around when he hears it, and the two of them with his wife don't know what they're busy with at home all day, and they are honest.
It turned out that His Majesty belonged to the King of Linjiang County, and after everyone exchanged glances, Lord Zhang said tentatively: "According to His Majesty's requirements, the King of Linjiang County is quite suitable, that is, although this person does not fight cocks and lackeys, but stays in the mansion all day long, and does not seem to have any great ambitions." β
He was afraid that Emperor Yonghe did not like the king of Linjiang County, so after he put it forward, he criticized it again, so that if Emperor Yonghe didn't like this person, he said something critical, and Emperor Yonghe should not think that he belonged to this person, and if Emperor Yonghe wanted to like this person, he should immediately refute and defend the king of Linjiang County, so that he would know whether the emperor liked this person.
Lord Zhang thought well, Emperor Yonghe in the clan for a while, indeed belong to the king of Linjiang County, no way, the royal family is afraid of the clan rebellion, so most of the clan is raised as pigs by the imperial court, in this way, most of the children are not mature, they all belong to the kind of people who live like pigs eating and sleeping and sleeping and eating and eating and waiting for death, a few capable, and a group of relatives, who will become the emperor in the future, some are annoying, and Zhao Yao is alone, and he is quite vigorous, in addition, his parents are dead, his brother and sister-in-law are not close, he is a very good candidate, so Emperor Yonghe saw it, he fell in love with Zhao Yao, and wanted to set up Zhao Yao as the East Palaceγ
At this time, Emperor Yonghe listened to Lord Zhang's words, and really defended Zhao Yao and said: "He used to be just a clan, what great ambitions do he need, but his character is still good, and after he is established as the East Palace, he will be cultivated and cultivated a little, and he should grow in the future." β
Everyone listened to Emperor Yonghe's words, and couldn't help but sigh, secretly knowing what the emperor thought, it was better, it was better than letting them play you guess I guess guess, this kind of you guess I guess guess one is not good at playing, but it will play with the black yarn hat.
At that moment, Master Zhang said: "Your Majesty is still thoughtful." β
Emperor Yonghe smiled: "If you have a better candidate, you might as well say it, there are too many clans, and I am also picky." β
Master Zhang and the others said: "There is no other better candidate for the ministers. β
Emperor Yonghe achieved the goal of clearly discussing and secretly informing the minister that he was going to establish the East Palace, so he let everyone go down.
The news that Emperor Yonghe was going to establish the East Palace quickly spread out, and at the same time that Zhao Yao got the news through the news channel, the Empress Dowager Zheng naturally got the news.
And outsiders only know that Emperor Yonghe wants to build the East Palace, who he wants to set up, everyone still doesn't know, because Emperor Yonghe didn't let the ministers who participated in the discussion of this matter say it, but Empress Dowager Zheng, as the mother of Emperor Yonghe, still listened to her son and knew who it was.
However, as soon as she heard that Emperor Yonghe wanted to make Zhao Yao the crown prince, she was not very satisfied.
Not to mention that Zhao Yao rejected his niece's proposal to marry at the beginning, it was displeased, just thinking of Zhao Yao's princess, that is, when his niece lost 10,000 taels of silver hibiscus, he was immediately unhappy.
At the beginning, the rumors made the capital boiling, and his mother's family had begged to go to the palace to let her help support the scene, but the emperor had a bad brain, and he did not help his own people but helped outsiders, and criticized his niece, which made the Empress Dowager Zheng very dissatisfied at that time, and then heard that Emperor Yonghe was going to make Zhao Yao the crown prince, and Mu Hibiscus may become the queen in the future, she was even more unhappy.
How can such a cheap girl become a queen, if she really becomes a queen, she will not want to make trouble with herself when she thinks of having a holiday with herself in the future? So at that moment, Empress Dowager Zheng thought about how to persuade Emperor Yonghe to change her mind.
One person is short, two people are long, when Duchess Chengen and Zheng Xiuxiu came to the palace as guests, Empress Dowager Zheng retreated left and right, said this, and wanted to consult the two of them if they had any opinions.
As soon as Zheng Xiuxiu, who was leaving home, heard that His Majesty intended to make Zhao Yao the crown prince, she couldn't help but immediately blow up her hair and said: "Auntie, this Zhou Muhibiscus has a grudge against our family, if she becomes the queen in the future, then there will be no place for our family, and my aunt may not be very comfortable at that time, so you must not let Your Majesty make the king of Linjiang County the crown prince!"
She was so miserable, Zhou Mujian, who was an inferior person, became a princess, not to mention, and now she has the possibility of becoming a queen, how can she bear it, so she naturally said this at this time.
Besides, Zhao Yao rejected her family affairs back then, and she hated Zhao Yao who slapped her in the face back then, so she naturally didn't want to see him become the emperor.
What's more, she spread rumors and offended Zhou Muhibiscus at the beginning, so naturally she didn't want to see Zhou Muhibiscus become the queen and find trouble for herself in the future, so she didn't want Zhao Yao to become the prince more than Empress Dowager Zheng.
Empress Dowager Zheng listened to her words, looked at her angrily, and said, "You don't need to remind you of this, the mourning family naturally knows, so now I am asking you how to persuade Your Majesty to change your mind." β
The secret way is that this girl is not good, if it weren't for the fact that in order to protect her at that time, she matched Zhou Muhibiscus, otherwise she wouldn't have to worry so much at this time, after all, if there was no contradiction with her, she wouldn't embarrass her as a future empress dowager, in that case, she wouldn't have to work hard at this time, and she would have to talk to the emperor about this topic that was only afraid that it would cause the emperor to be disgusted.
Zheng Xiuxiu said incomprehensibly: "Auntie, Your Majesty is your son, isn't this a matter of your words? After all, Your Majesty rules the world with filial piety." β
Empress Dowager Zheng listened to her stupid words, she really wanted to roll her eyes, and frowned at the moment: "What do you think, ordinary things, Your Majesty may listen to the mourning family, but this is a political matter, this dynasty prohibits the harem from interfering in politics, the mourning family must dare to speak out in this regard, the emperor will definitely not listen to the mourning family, that is, if he does not listen to the mourning family, others will not blame him for being unfilial, on the contrary, if it is not good, the imperial history will impeach the mourning family for interfering in politics." If it's a matter of one sentence, do the mourning family still need to discuss it with you?"
Zheng Xiuxiu was criticized by the Empress Dowager Zheng, and she couldn't help but have a fever on her face, and said sarcastically: "It's my niece who thinks simply." β
Duchess Chengen on the side didn't want to see her being disciplined because she doted on her daughter, so she immediately changed the topic with a smile and said: "Then why don't you contact a few ministers, and when the emperor says that he wants to make the king of Linjiang County the crown prince, let them raise objections." β
Over the years, because the Chengen Mansion is the queen mother's family, there are many people who have befriended their family, so their family has also managed some contacts, including many high-ranking officials in the court.
This is a way, and the Empress Dowager Zheng nodded at the moment and said: "This is a method, but this method will be used in the end, if you can come up with a reasonable excuse, so that the mourning family can persuade His Majesty not to set up the king of Linjiang County as the crown prince, then there is no need to make that effort." β
Mainly when there is a way, she doesn't want to find someone to go against her son, unless there is no way, it's not too late.
After listening to the words of the Empress Dowager Zheng, Zheng Xiuxiu and Duchess Chengen immediately thought deeply, and after thinking about the boss for a while, Duchess Chengen said: "I have an idea, I don't know if the Empress Dowager will see it or not." β
"If you have it, just say it, what are you doing. Empress Dowager Zheng didn't look at her at all, so she didn't like it, and said.
To tell the truth, because Duchess Chengen gave birth to three daughters in a row, the Empress Dowager Zheng didn't like Duchess Chengen very much, if it wasn't for the fact that Duchess Chengen gave birth to the only nephew now, otherwise she became the queen mother and her younger brother became the prince of the country, she would definitely let her younger brother divorce this woman for the first time, and then marry another high-ranking daughter, in this way, there are more men in the mother's family on the one hand, and marrying a high-ranking daughter is also conducive to the Zheng family's rapid integration into the upper circle of the capital, and it is also conducive to expanding contacts and providing assistance for the mother's family, his own family also has to provide assistance to Duchess Chengen's mother's family, when I think of the other party being with my younger brother, my brother has not taken advantage of the slightest, on the contrary, the other party has been taking advantage of her own family, and Empress Dowager Zheng naturally doesn't like Duchess Chengen.
Duchess Chengen looked at the disgusted look of the Empress Dowager Zheng and felt uncomfortable, but there was no way, she was the queen mother, she didn't dare to leak the discomfort in her heart, lest she didn't do anything wrong and the other party would pick a bone in the egg, if she did anything, she would not be scolded to death, if she hadn't given birth to a son, it was probably not as simple as scolding to death, but she had to directly let Chengen Gong take a leave of absence, but her status was too high, she couldn't do anything to the other party at all, so although she felt uncomfortable, she didn't dare to reveal anythingγ
