When the situation of the third prince Zhou Qiyu came out, there was an uproar. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Concubine An, as the biological mother of the third prince, was heartbroken when she heard this, and knelt outside the queen's bedroom in white makeup, asking the queen to allow her to be buried for the emperor, and entrusted Princess Chaoyang to the queen, hoping that the queen would have mercy and find a good home for Princess Chaoyang. As for the third prince, Concubine An did not ask the queen for him, but asked the prince to read a brother, but pity his younger brother who has no ambitions, no learning and no skills, and now he has fallen into such a disease, I hope that the prince will not keep him in the court after ascending the throne, it is best to find a suitable temple for him to go to the house.

The queen didn't come out to see Concubine An, and Concubine An kowtowed and went back to her palace to commit suicide.

The third prince had just woken up, and when he heard about Concubine An, he immediately fainted again. Princess Chaoyang cried and fell in Concubine An's bedroom, but the third prince always remained unconscious in the queen's bedroom. The doctor discussed the treatment many times, but there was no turnaround.

When the death knell sounded, the prince was approaching the dynasty, and Wang Shangshu could only drag his sick body to assist in the national funeral. The Ministry of Rites is still in the hands of Wang Shangshu, afraid that his health is not good and he will delay the big event, so Wang Shangshu took the initiative to hand over the Ministry of Rites to Uncle Lao Guo. Before making a move, he first proposed that the country should not be without a king for a day, and asked the prince to ascend the throne as soon as possible.

He took the initiative to show favor to the Lao family, and the Lao family could not unload the mill and kill the donkey, after the crown prince ascended the throne, the queen had to be the queen mother, and the status of the Wang family's father and son in the court would not be shaken. It's come this far, and you have to endure it if you can't bear it.

Uncle Lao Guo stood aside and touched his beard to look at the Manchu Dynasty civil and military who knelt in front of the prince, and finally his eyes stayed on Wang Shangshu who was kneeling in the front.

Not long ago, someone reported to him that this Wang Shangshu had made a lot of noise in the north, and it was said that he had already mastered a lot of the Lao family's handles. As far as he knows, this Wang Zihuan is a very principled person, and his upright official reputation for so many years is not a reputation for fame. But why is he showing such kindness to himself today? Didn't he find anything at all? If you think about it carefully, maybe you are really too careful, he has known Wang Zihuan for more than ten years, if he really finds out something, where can he be so respectful to himself? At present, his sister-in-law's sister Queen Wang is already an ironclad matter for the queen mother, and he is in charge of six departments in his hands, if he is talking about himself, it seems that he can't say it. Thinking that he had looked down on the Wang family sisters and brothers many years ago, he thought that his cousin's death was the work of the Wang family sisters and brothers, and forced Queen Wang to drink the Juezi soup, which almost made it self-defeating and exposed the identity of the prince.

Fortunately, Queen Wang is a kind-hearted and brainless person, otherwise how could the prince's position be retained to this day? Now at this juncture, we must not make extraneous branches, and the prince who will protect the first will ascend the throne. At that time, as long as the Huai'an Hou Mansion, the only one who knows the identity of the prince, is dealt with cleanly, the world will not be the Lao family!

Uncle Lao was so intoxicated with his own joy that he completely forgot where he was. Wang Shaoyan, who was following closely behind Wang Shangshu, said coldly, "Uncle Laoguo, let's all kneel down and beg the prince to ascend the throne, don't you have anything to say as the prince's uncle?" ”

Uncle Lao finally came back to his senses, only to find that all the courtiers had knelt down, and as the only person standing, he was very conspicuous.

But is he the prince's father, does he really want to kneel for his son? Uncle Lao hesitated for a moment and was just about to kneel, when he heard the prince say in a hoarse voice, "Uncle should be thinking about something, Shaoyan must not think too much." Everyone Aiqing should hurry up and calm down, what Aiqing said is lonely and understands, the current border war is not over, the queen mother is seriously ill, and Concubine An goes with her father. The matter between the second brother and Liang Guifei has not been dealt with, and the third brother is like this...... As a prince alone, you naturally can't shirk your responsibility, and since your uncle has received the Ministry of Rites and ascended the throne, you will have to worry about it. and Wang Shangshu...... Lonely, I understand that you are also entangled in all things now, but now that my father and Lone need you more, I hope you will put your own affairs aside first, and help Lone host the national funeral first. ”

Wang Shangshu hurriedly responded. This prince really doesn't have ordinary trust in Uncle Lao Guo, and at this time, he didn't forget to help Uncle Lao Guo pay back to the Wang family's father and son. Is this considered to be for Uncle Lao Guo to stand up in the court? It's just that the crown prince hasn't really sat in that chair yet, and once he does, he doesn't believe how long they can maintain this absolute trust between them?

The New Year is approaching, the streets and alleys that should be lively and extraordinary are deserted everywhere, the emperor died and the whole country mourned for a month, and no one dared to celebrate the upcoming New Year.

The father and son of the Wang family were busy with the funeral, and they almost didn't touch the ground. Although the old lady's body has healed, it is not as good as before, and she is already powerless to preside over such a thing. Wang Shangshu invited Aunt Yu out of Cuizhuyuan to study with the old lady. Xi Cui took the opportunity to summon Rui Niang to Luju and put her by her side.

The old lady didn't take this matter to heart because she had promised to let Lu Ju find someone to buy someone by herself. Aunt Yu is a novice on the road, more things are better than less things, and she feels that this matter is the old lady's deservience, so she won't say anything anymore. So the original Aunt Yang became the current Rui Niang, and she returned to the Wang family in a grand manner.

After having Rui Niang, Xi Cui is more worry-free and effortless, every time Mama Wu has to take herself to see the shop, she will take Rui Niang more, although Mama Wu is dissatisfied, she is helpless.

After the tense and hectic passage of this year, the crown prince ascended the throne on the first day of the new year.

Before this, Wang Shangshu handed over the Ministry of Rites to Uncle Lao Guo, and the Criminal Department was given to Zhang Nianping, who had been following the prince, who was the real slave of the prince's family, and his only daughter also entered the prince's mansion, and he followed the prince and had nothing to do with Uncle Lao. In fact, what was said at that time could only be said to be Wang Shangshu's transfer, but it could not be regarded as Uncle Lao Guo and Zhang Nianping really taking over. Because the crown prince did not ascend the throne at that time, Wang Shangshu gave up the crown prince but did not have the right to directly appoint him. Wang Shangshu did this just to make such a gesture, so as to avoid the prince's suspicion of himself.

The crown prince ascended the throne and changed the country name to Yuanfeng in the early years. The queen was established as the queen mother, and her biological mother Qi was posthumously crowned as the queen mother. The crown princess Qian is the queen, Zhang Nianping's daughter Zhang is a noble concubine, and there is no one on the concubine seat.

The third prince, Zhou Qiyu, gave the prince the title, and inherited the last wish of his biological mother, Concubine An, to order him to become a monk in Huangjue Temple after the national funeral. The fourth prince continued to stay in the palace with his mother because he was not yet an adult.

The situation has stabilized initially.

The father and son of the Wang family rarely went home early, and the two of them entered the open house one after the other.

Rui Niang was laughing with Xi Cui with Yun Ting, when she heard Wang Shangshu's cold voice, Rui Niang's hand trembled suddenly, and she almost dropped the tea tray she was holding on the ground. Fortunately, Yun Ting heard Wang Shaoyan's voice and immediately jumped up and ran to the door to attract everyone's attention, which saved Rui Niang from the danger of being exposed.

After the father and son followed Yun Ting in, Rui Niangfu retreated, Xi Cui hurriedly went to serve tea, and the two withdrew side by side. Wang Shangshu strode past Rui Niang, not realizing that the slave who bent over at this moment was Aunt Yang who had been facing him day and night.

Out of the door Rui Niang breathed a long sigh of relief, only to hear his voice heart was immediately raised to the throat eyes, in the end, it was the person who had slept with her for several years, and her feelings in the face of him were indescribably complicated. On the one hand, he is worried that he will recognize all his previous plans, and on the other hand, he hopes that he will recognize that he may still hope that the relationship between them is somewhat sincere.

But he still didn't recognize himself...... Should we be happy or sad? Rui Niang sneered self-deprecatingly, isn't this better? Anyway, I haven't really loved that man all these years, and now I can leave him alive, and I can get what I want to avenge the blood feud of the year, how rare is this opportunity? The most important thing at the moment will no longer have anything to do with this man, and now there are only two things she needs to do to repay Xi Cui's kindness and avenge the revenge.

Wang Shangshu actually didn't know why he came to live in the open house. Maybe when their father and son returned together, he saw the expectation and joy of home in his son's eyes? Thinking that he never seemed to have such expectations for Heju, the only feeling of Begonia Garden had long since turned to ashes. remembered that Yun Ting was just a mentally imperfect woman, but the happiness on his son's face came from the heart, which couldn't help but make him interested in his daughter-in-law.

As a result, before entering the door, I saw a beautiful little figure jumping up to meet him, and happily pulled Wang Shaoyan into the door. He had never seen such an innocent and calm smile, and now he was sitting on the side and watching Yun Ting pull Wang Shaoyan to pull back and forth from left to right, as if it really made people forget the intrigue above the court for a while, and they were deceitful.

Although Liu was unscrupulous, he had to admit at this moment that the woman had indeed found a good daughter-in-law for her son. Women should give men a warm and comfortable feeling, if they can only take care of housework, but they can't be approached, it is not necessarily a good thing. At least in his eyes now, Xi Yunting is good, and it is almost impossible to find a few reliable housekeepers and grandmothers for this kind of thing, but it is very difficult to achieve intimate intimacy between husband and wife.

Xi Cui served tea and stood quietly on the side.

The atmosphere seemed to be peaceful. It's just that when everyone didn't think of Liu.

After three days of rest, the new emperor went to the early court for the first time, and the father and son of the Wang family went very early. This time they went together again, and Wang Shaoyan always felt that his father was a little different these days.

Sure enough, Wang Shangshu handed over the fold of Zhishi. He also returned the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry to the emperor, and although the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Punishment that he handed over before were given to Uncle Lao and Zhang Nianping in front of the prince at the time, and the emperor was not dissatisfied after ascending the throne, then the Ministry of Officials and Household Department that he handed over to Wang Shaoyan earlier were still acquiesced by the emperor, and naturally there was no need to mention them in front of the emperor.

You must know that this Wang Shangshu is only thirty-seven or eighteen years old now, at this time, what does the new emperor want to do when he ascends the throne? No one can understand his move, the emperor will naturally not agree, he has just ascended the throne and has not yet tried the depth of the water, although he has Uncle Lao Guo to help him, but how can he be the emperor and let Uncle Lao's family dominate? Even if he is his most trusted uncle, he can't keep Wang Shangshu at least to contain the Lao family in the court.

Uncle Lao Guo was still very satisfied when he heard Wang Shangshu say this. Now the six royal families have given up four, although the people in the criminal department are not their own, but in the end they are the emperor's, the Ministry of Rites is in their own hands, as long as they master the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Industry, there will be no one in this civil and military general who can compete with his Lao family. When the time comes, explain the whole thing to the emperor and tell him his true identity, there is no need to use a single soldier at all, and the world will be surnamed Lao.

But at this time, he heard the emperor's words to keep Wang Shangshu, "Wang Qing is dissatisfied with me?" When I first ascended to the throne, it was the time to employ people, but Wang Qing wanted to leave me at this time? ”

"The emperor forgives the sin, but the minister is really afraid." Wang Shangshu knelt on the ground, his hands on the ground, and he really looked terrified, "The minister is a martial artist, he has no brains, and he doesn't know how to be flexible." When the emperor was there, let the ministers take charge of the six departments, which was really to catch ducks on the shelves, and the ministers couldn't get rid of it, and the things they did during the period were more or less the emperors and sisters privately instructed the ministers. Otherwise, I am afraid that these two times will be folded long ago. Later, the emperor couldn't take care of the ministers, and the ministers had a sensible and intelligent son to help the ministers manage the most difficult household and officials. Even this minister is still disturbed by things inside and out, and the minister has no face to say about the incident a year ago...... The minister was afraid that the emperor would misunderstand, so he handed over the Ministry of Rites and the Ministry of Punishment first, and when he saw that you didn't object, he had the courage to let go......"

"......" The emperor looked at the top of Wang Shangshu's head and didn't speak for a long time. He also investigated this prince Huan when he was the prince before, and what he said was indeed true. No wonder his father is so partial to Wang Shaoyan, and he does not hesitate to eliminate the will of the public for him to be promoted, presumably his father has long expected today's situation. But in any case, Wang Zihuan can't quit at this time, at least before he promotes Wang Shaoyan, Wang Zihuan has to put it there. "Wang Qing is too modest, I still know how much you have ability. If you feel tired, you can choose one of these six parts to manage more easily, and I will help you manage the rest first, and it will be spring soon, and you will help me pay attention to it. It's just that you can't just leave it alone at the moment......" Seeing that Wang Shangshu's shoulders shook as if he wanted to say something, the emperor continued, "This matter is so decided, you still have the title of Shangshu Ling, and it will not be too late to return it to me when you find someone who can replace you." ”

The emperor's words made Wang Shangshu unable to refuse, and he won the hearts of many old ministers. Except for Uncle Lao Guo, almost all of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty fell to the ground and shouted long live.

Wang Shangshu made an embarrassed expression on his face, but his eyes glanced at Uncle Lao Guo, sure enough, he hadn't had time to set up his seat, just such a temptation made him see the dislike between the father and son. "In that case, the old minister asks the emperor to let the minister take charge of the Ministry of Industry, there is no such mess here."

The emperor was somewhat shocked when he saw that he had chosen the Ministry of Works and said such a reason. This Wang Zihuan is really sincere, no wonder he can gain the trust of his father.

After retiring from the dynasty, the father and son of the Wang family traveled together. Wang Shaoyan grinded and chirped several times along the way, but he never knew what to say, and when they separated, Wang Shangshu quietly put a note in Wang Shaoyan's hand.

When there was no one left and right, Wang Shaoyan opened it and took a look, "Take retreat as advance, gain the trust of the new emperor, and then do that provocative thing." ”

I see...... Wang Shaoyan realized at this time that he had never really understood his father, and it turned out that he was the one who really knew how to be an official.

Stirring up the relationship between Uncle Lao and the emperor is the only way to break the current situation, I didn't expect it, and I have tried it. Just that time, when my father led the ministers to persuade the emperor, who was still the crown prince at the time, to ascend the throne, he thought it was a good opportunity, but it was self-defeating, and the emperor gave Uncle Lao Guo a prestige. But look at what my father is doing today, he is not in a hurry, and the effect achieved in an orderly manner is immediate.

On the other hand, Uncle Lao Guo had not yet noticed the emperor's dissatisfaction with him, and after the next dynasty, he chased the emperor to the upper study.

Seeing that he seemed to have something to say, the emperor waved his hand and retreated. He didn't see the dissatisfaction on Uncle Lao's face in the court today, but even if he was dissatisfied, so what?

"Your Majesty, why didn't you take advantage of the situation to exempt Wang Zihuan from his errand, although we installed a lot of our own people in the six parts before, but on the bright side, the six parts are still from his royal family. Finally, he took the initiative to hand it over, why don't we take it? Uncle Lao Guo didn't even look at the emperor's face before he spoke, in his heart, the emperor is his own son, so he should be with himself, but he forgot that the emperor at this moment didn't know his true identity at all. He forgot even more, even if he knew his identity, he might not be willing to accept it.

"Uncle, it's not right for you to say that, I can ascend the throne Prince Huan has contributed, today everyone is watching him Wang Zihuan resign can be said to be a rapid retreat, but if I just go down the slope of the donkey, it will be crossing the river and demolishing the bridge. You also know that when I first ascended to the great treasure, my foundation was not stable, and it was the time when I needed to win people's hearts. "Besides, if you really ask Wang Zihuan to leave, you don't have to rush to hold the six departments into your own hands, and then the Wenchen and military generals will all be your Uncle Laoguo, won't I, the emperor, become an ornament?

"What you said makes sense, but if you miss this opportunity, I'm afraid it will be difficult to suppress the Wang family......" Uncle Lao Guo looked pity.

"Uncle, have you thought about it more? I am the emperor, thunder, rain and dew are all gentlemen, this power and wealth I want to give it to whomever I want to give, but if I am not happy one day, it is not a matter of words to want to take it back. Besides, I don't still have my uncle by my side, and I won't let anyone else pass you anyway. "I can't let your Lao family be the only one, otherwise what should I, the emperor, do!

"That's ......" Uncle Lao Guo did not doubt him, and nodded yes.

The two talked about some things again before Uncle Lao Guo left.

The Emperor watched his figure disappear in the doorway for a long time before withdrawing his gaze.

Or Qi Yu can see it thoroughly, being an emperor just can't rely on anyone, even if it's your closest relative. It seems that he has given Uncle Lao Guo too much preferential treatment, so that he doesn't know what position he should stand in. Otherwise, how could he dare to chase him to the upper study to question his decision in the court? In the long run, things won't be easy......
