Chapter Seventy-Six: Convincing the Queen Mother
"The concubines see the queen mother, and may the queen mother be blessed and safe. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info "The queen, please be safe."
"The queen manages the harem and is very busy, how can she have time to come to the mourning palace today?" The Queen Mother said.
"The concubine is also very concerned about the queen mother, but she is busy with affairs, so she didn't come to say hello to the queen mother, and ask the queen mother to forgive her sins." The queen said.
"The mourning family doesn't blame you, the mourning family also knows that it is not easy for you to be this queen, and you need to manage all the big and small affairs in the palace, so naturally you are lacking in skills, and the mourning family is not an unreasonable person." The Queen Mother said.
"The queen mother treats the concubine like this, and the concubine is really unrequited." The queen said.
Although the queen mother is the emperor's biological mother, she has always been very low-key, and even the big and small affairs of the harem are not grasped in her hands but handed over to the queen, of course, this does not mean that the queen mother is not powerful, she can give birth to a son who is the emperor, if she is not powerful, can she live to this day.
"Queen Mother, the emperor recently intends to canonize the crown prince, do you know about this?" The queen asked. Although it is said that the queen mother doesn't care about things, as the most noble woman in the Dayong Dynasty, she can hide anything from her, not to mention the boiling election of the crown prince.
"The mourning family has also heard about this matter, but the harem is not suitable for participating in the affairs of the previous dynasty, and the mourning family believes that the emperor will definitely be able to elect a suitable prince." The Queen Mother said.
"Do you know the Queen Mother, most of the ministers in the court and the central government are now ready to move because of the election of the crown prince, and the ministers have their own careful thoughts to assist in promoting the prince they rely on to take the throne. In this way, there will be less time for other official duties, and there will be no effort to work, which is very disadvantageous for the imperial court. And the princes are also competing with each other for the position of the crown prince, regardless of brotherhood, and the concubines are worried that if this continues, there will be something bad. The queen said.
"But the prince is the prince of a country, and the election of the prince is of great significance to a country, so there must be nothing wrong with choosing the prince, those ministers are indeed hateful, but what you said is also reasonable, do you have any way to solve it, queen?" The Queen Mother asked.
"Queen Mother, after the emperor chooses the crown prince, the prince will definitely become the target of the public and be attacked by everyone, I think either the prince is not chosen, the emperor only needs to secretly cultivate the person he likes. Of course, there is another way, that is, to set up a prince without saying who it is, and then take it out when the new emperor needs to succeed to the throne in the future, so that every prince can work hard, express himself, and develop our Dayong Dynasty better. The queen said.
"What the queen said makes sense, I will talk to the emperor, as for how the emperor decides, it is not my business, but the mourning family thinks that you and the emperor are husband and wife, if there is anything you can tell the emperor directly, you don't need to come to the mourning family to convey." The Queen Mother said.
After that, the queen left satisfied, because since the queen mother has agreed, then she will definitely do it, so now it depends on the emperor's reaction, no matter which method the emperor uses, it will be beneficial to the queen. If the emperor still insists on his own ideas, then there is no way, he can only slowly figure it out, who said that he will be stable when he becomes the prince, the queen secretly thought in her heart, even if she becomes the prince, she will pull the prince off the horse and make room for her son.
The Queen Mother is not a confused person, so the purpose of the queen's coming here, the Queen Mother is very clear in her heart, the queen said to her, just to postpone the selection of the prince, and then let the six princes grow up and compete with the previous princes, but the Queen Mother is not optimistic about the six princes, and she doesn't think that the queen can make a calculation.
Although the six princes are concubines, but the disadvantages are too obvious, so young, when there are many adult princes, the six princes really have no chance, even if the emperor is old in the future, he will not choose a prince who is too young, so the minister will not agree, and the clan relatives will not agree.
As for why the queen mother agreed to the queen and help the queen say those words, in fact, the queen mother didn't want the emperor to choose the prince so early. After all, there is still a difference between a son being an emperor and a grandson being an emperor. And in the eyes of the queen mother, the emperor is strong and strong, and he chose the prince so early, although it will make the dynasty more stable, but it will also give the prince's power more time to develop, maybe the prince will really threaten the emperor's position in the future.
After all, if you become the prince, you can develop your own team openly, although in this way, when the prince ascends the throne, he is not afraid that no one will use it, but the people in power still don't like someone to threaten their power. As the emperor's mother, the queen mother probably knows the emperor's mind and wants to establish a crown prince, this candidate is nothing more than the eldest prince and the second prince, and the other princes also have a lot of ministers to support, but the emperor must have never considered it.
But the eldest prince and the second prince are not so close to the queen mother, which is also an important reason why the queen mother promised to help the queen speak, after all, if the emperor is convinced, then there will be no risk of losing power for the queen mother, as long as her son is the emperor, no one dares to disrespect her.
The biological mother of the eldest prince is Concubine Hui, and the Queen Mother didn't like Concubine Hui very much, because Concubine Hui was a girl from the opponent of the Queen Mother's family, and naturally the Queen Mother didn't treat her from the beginning, although because the emperor didn't slap her face, but the relationship was not good, because of the relationship between Concubine Hui, the Queen Mother didn't like the eldest prince very much, and naturally the relationship with the eldest prince was not so good, if the eldest prince succeeded to the throne in the future, she didn't dare to guarantee that Concubine Hui's mother and son would treat her well.
The second prince was loved by the emperor because of the loss of his mother at an early age, and he also missed the pity of the other party, and often took care of it, it stands to reason that if the second prince is the prince, the queen mother will not have that concern, but although the second prince is a son-in-law, but he was suppressed by the queen very much, and his temperament is also a little weak, and he is not a good candidate for the prince, although the queen mother is only a woman, but she doesn't want her country to slowly lose in the hands of the next generation of monarchs.
It's not that the second prince is not good, it's just the other party's temperament, being the emperor may not be a good thing, maybe being a prince will be much better than him being a prince, being an emperor.
However, the eldest prince and the second prince are not very suitable, so the remaining princes are even more inappropriate, so what the queen mother thinks is to slow down for a while, not to be busy with the crown prince, but to give these princes some errands first, to see their ability, after all, the prince of a country is not a trivial matter, and choosing the wrong person is a huge loss for the whole country.
