Chapter 37: Detailed
After sending Shen Zhan away, the prince had lunch, and after taking a nap, he went to Kunning Palace to discuss with his mother.
"Mother, what do you say? Is it asking my grandfather to help? Although Chai Yuan is the crown prince, in front of his mother, he still puts himself in the position of the son of an ordinary family, and respects his mother very much.
The queen was very shocked, and it took a long time to come back to her senses, and smiled bitterly: "I don't have any good way, leave this matter to your grandfather to decide, I'm not so clean here, maybe someone is hiding in the dark and eavesdropping." Not to mention, send someone to settle your cousin. ”
The eldest son, that is, the former prince, does not have many useful people in private. The emperor is too tough, and he can't see his subordinates forming gangs, let alone any big moves by his children in private, especially cultivating private soldiers. Moreover, the eldest son's own body and bones are not good, and he does not have so much energy to cultivate his own power.
Today's prince, her second son, the position of the prince has just been secured. No, actually, it's not stable. A year ago, the emperor wanted to change the crown prince on a whim. Before that, her distant son could only behave honestly, and she didn't dare to make any small moves.
It's just that now Concubine Lu is ready to move again, and the prince is not strong, so how can he do it? There are not enough people around to use it, and if something big happens, they can only be caught, wash their necks and wait for slaughter.
"Yuan'er, you don't have enough money, right? I have 20,000 taels of silver tickets here, which your grandfather gave me yesterday, so you can use them! If that's not enough, I'll try to sell a few more pieces of unmarked jewelry to meet my urgent needs. The queen gave the prince a purse, which looked like the pattern and style that his grandfather was used to.
Most of those gifts have built-in logos, and they cannot be taken out and sold for pawns.
The prince had relatives in his heart, and he refused very sadly: "Queen Mother, what your grandfather gave you, you can keep it for yourself." I don't lack money now, and if I need it urgently, I'll ask you for it!" ”
As the mother of a country, the queen mother seems to have infinite scenery, but in fact, she is not as good as the housewife of ordinary people. The father and the queen mother are afraid that they don't have much affection. Just a few days ago, he also heard that his father gave Lu Guifei a silver ticket of 50,000 taels at once.
It was probably because my grandfather thought that the queen mother was too pitiful, so he gave the queen mother a silver ticket, right? As soon as he thought of this, his heart was sour and very sad.
The queen's eyes were perceptive, and from her son's pitying and distressed eyes, she somewhat guessed her son's psychological activities. A man's affection is the least extravagant, especially the affection of an emperor. The streamer can take away many things, and the emperor's affection is like the fallen leaves in the surging river, which disappear without a trace in a blink of an eye.
"You can take this silver ticket, I don't need to use silver money for any of my expenses in the palace, just my status and status, there is no need to reward which palace maid and eunuch, loyal people will naturally have a lot." She still forcibly stuffed the silver ticket into her son's pocket, and her attitude was very resolute: "Your brother is still young, and the queen mother will be gone in the future, or you will no longer be able to help you, you should take more care of your brother." ”
The prince made a "shh Suddenly, a palace maid fell in, threw herself on the ground, and fell into the mud.
"Presumptuous, you dare to secretly talk between the prince and the queen!" The prince was furious, kicked over, and kicked the palace maid's heart: "Tell me honestly, who is the master behind you?!" ”
The queen was also angry, stepped forward quickly, and asked sharply: "Tell me quickly, did you send you to do the fine work?" Could it be that you are an agent of an enemy country?! ”
The palace maid was already frightened, her whole body was prostrate on the ground, her soul was scattered, and she subconsciously screamed: "No, the slave maid is not an agent of the enemy country, it is Lu Guifei who instructed the slave maid!" ”
What are you kidding, spies of enemy countries? If this charge is confirmed, she will die herself, and it will definitely affect her parents, family, and even the entire family! Maybe, there will be nine clans.
Therefore, under her subconscious, she made a trade-off and blurted out Lu Guifei. In fact, as soon as the words came out, she regretted it a little.
Saying this, wouldn't it offend the concubine severely? offending the emperor's * concubine is actually worse than offending the queen. Because, Concubine Lu's heart is ten times more vicious than the queen. Moreover, Concubine Lu's heart and eyes are like the sand in the river, too many to count. In comparison, the queen's mind is much simpler, and she generally does not put people to death.
Perhaps, if you don't recruit Concubine Lu, even if you are charged with the enemy's annihilation, you won't affect your family! And offended Concubine Lu, her family will suffer nine times out of ten!
The palace maid couldn't help but sweat coldly, and her whole body couldn't help but tremble.
If you say it, it's like water that has been spilled, and you can't get it back!
The crown prince looked at the queen: "Queen Mother, do you want to tell your father about this and let your father deal with it?" ”
The queen shook her head: "There is no need, even if this kind of thing stabs your father and emperor, the real mastermind behind the scenes will not be harmed at all!" ”
It's better to hand it over directly to the people of the Criminal Justice Division for interrogation, and take this opportunity to dig out the relevant people, so that person can damage a few henchmen and cut off her right arm.
The prince understood: "It's okay, this matter will be handed over to the queen mother to deal with!" ”
The palace maid was taken down, and the prince withdrew from everyone and lowered his voice: "Queen Mother, today Ah Zhan gave his son 300,000 taels of silver, and you can keep the 20,000 taels of silver yourself, don't worry about your son." ”
As he spoke, he stuffed the 20,000 taels of silver tickets back to the queen.
The queen nodded tearfully and smiled with satisfaction: "Okay, my son, now there are followers!" Don't worry, I won't say it, even to your brother and brother, I'll keep my mouth shut! ”
Shen Zhan's move means that he officially stands in line.
Her crown prince finally has a strong support!
******
When Shen Zhan returned to the Grange, it was already evening, and he stepped on the sunset in the sky and returned to his wife and children.
At this time, Yu Anzhi and the children were making noodles and dumplings.
"Daddy, come and see, my mother said, I want to make colored noodles and dumplings today!" When the two little ones saw him, they immediately rushed over, and one of them hugged him on one leg.
"Well, it's really good, the colored noodles and dumplings are so beautiful! Daughter-in-law, how are you going to make noodles and dumplings like this? ”
