"How did you come up with the idea of the Five Princes?" Jiang Zhengxi was a little surprised. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"As you said, the Nangong family is a very important chess piece in the emperor's art of checks and balances, so isn't it the fifth prince and the Yuwen family behind him who can make this chess piece balance?" Although Yan Ruojiu doesn't bother to ask about outside things, it doesn't mean that she doesn't know anything.

"Huh...... Daughter-in-law, you are so smart, no wonder the emperor's uncle and aunt praise you so much, fortunately, you ended up in the arms of me Jiang Zhengxi, otherwise ......" Jiang Zhengxi looked sad.

"Nasty! I'm going to get down to business. Yan Ruojiu gave Jiang Zhengxi a pink punch.

"Hey...... I'm also serious, yes, the Nangong family and the Yuwen family, or the crown prince and the five princes, have been in opposition to each other for a long time.

After the crown prince was established, two different forces began to appear in the court, and many ministers were also their own masters, after all, ...... The imperial court and the state always have to alternate, and it is understandable to plan a new master in advance, but ...... If it is too transgressive, it is a big taboo, so ...... You should understand......" Jiang Zhengxi smiled.

"So as long as one side doesn't go too far, Uncle Huang will focus on the overall situation and balance, and choose to make things trivial?" Yan Ruojiu asked.

"Of course, you have to be cautious about things that affect the whole body, although I often can't accept it, but my aunt often says that imperial power does not mean that you can do whatever you want.

Being an emperor is actually more tiring than imagined, and it takes a lot of patience and wisdom to maintain the overall situation, affect the balance of all forces, and use it for oneself, which is why my father was reluctant to take the throne when he was killed.

Hehe...... After all...... With his father's violent temper, within three years, I am afraid that the ministers of the court will let him kill him...... Hehehe......" Jiang Zhengxi couldn't help laughing.

"Huh? And what's going on? Yan Ruojiu heard it for the first time.

"Yes, I also heard my aunt talk about it later, saying that it was the battle for the throne at the beginning, and the imperial grandfather actually wanted to pass on the position to his father, but ah, my father was uninhibited and chic, and he couldn't stand that kind of constraint, so he ......" Jiang Zhengxi said with a smile.

"Huh...... It turns out that there is such a one, well, too, with the character of the father, even the emperor's uncle dares to contradict him in a hurry, not to mention those ministers, it is estimated that it is indeed as you said......

Ay...... In this way, it is actually not easy for Uncle Huang. Yan Ruojiu sighed.

"Who says it's not, as an emperor, even his wife and children have to be guarded against, and we can't understand the bitterness in the emperor's uncle's heart." Jiang Zhengxi really felt sorry for the emperor.

"yes, that'...... The crown prince was deposed, the Nangong family was exiled, and the balance of the court situation that the imperial uncle worked so hard to maintain was broken, and the imperial court would not ......" Yan Ruojiu worried.

"The fall of the Nangong family will inevitably release a large area of interests, and disputes and secret robberies will definitely be unavoidable, but ...... It's not a mess, after all, Uncle Huang is not a vegetarian, not to mention that there is an aunt, no matter how bad it is, there is me and Jiang Ziran......" Jiang Zhengxi is confident.

"Then above this court, isn't it left alone with the five princes?" Yan Ruojiu asked again.

"Huh...... In the past, it may have been, but since the appearance of your brother Ziran, the situation has long changed, but now, it has changed from a three-legged stand to a two-tiger competition, and the five princes are not the only beneficiaries. Jiang Zhengxi saw it clearly.

"Brother Ziran......" A trace of worry flashed in Yan Ruojiu's heart.

"Huh...... How? I'm worried that your brother Ziran can't fight the five princes? Jiang Zhengxi raised his eyebrows.

"What, I'm not worried about this, I'm worried, this is not the life that Brother Zi Ran wants, you also said that being an emperor is the hardest thing in the world, Brother Zi Ran, he ......" Yan Ruojiu frowned slightly.

"Oops...... My daughter-in-law, your brother Ran has long been involuntarily, besides, it's too early to worry about this, the dispute between the princes, how can you wait for this matter to fall before it gets windy, don't worry, isn't there still me, and my aunt......" Jiang Zhengxi hugged Yan Ruojiu and laughed.

At this time, in the eldest princess's mansion, the eldest princess in regular clothes was half-lying on the chaise longue, and Xiao Yan was by her side.

"You're too risky this time." Xiao Yan handed a cup of ginseng tea to the eldest princess.

"Huh...... The battle for imperial power is treacherous, and there are dangers everywhere, and I have long been used to it, and it is worth it to bring down the Nangong family this time. The eldest princess took the ginseng tea and smiled.

"Fortunately, you weren't injured, otherwise I would have killed Nangong Huo's old thief!" Xiao Yan said with some palpitations.

"Huh...... You, when did you become so impulsive, don't worry, with that kid Jeong-hee here, you don't have to bother to do it. The eldest princess smiled.

"Whew...... To tell the truth, your nephew didn't hurt in vain, as soon as he heard that it was Nangong Huo's instructions, he dared to break into Nangong Mansion single-handedly, I sweated for him, but I didn't expect him to be so capable, well, it can be regarded as a relief. Xiao Yan also smiled.

"Hmph, that kid, it really surprised me, he has matured a lot in the past two years by the emperor's side, this matter, if it weren't for this kid's quick eyes, I'm afraid it wouldn't have been solved so smoothly." The eldest princess sighed.

"Yes, I heard that Nangong Huo was going to break the net, but I didn't expect to be caught off guard by Zhengxi, this battle is really beautiful." Xiao Yan also praised it.

"Yes, it's very beautiful, and Ziran's kid also contributed a lot." The eldest princess sat up slightly and said.

"Speaking of Ziran, I have something I want to ask you." has taken care of Jiang Ziran for so many years, and Xiao Yan also cares about Jiang Ziran from the bottom of his heart.

"I know what you're asking, Zi Ran is indeed a child who has no quarrel with the world, and his temperament is simpler than that of ordinary princes or family members, but ...... Don't forget, he is the emperor's son in the end, and he is also the son of the emperor's favorite woman, do you think Ziran still has a chance to regret it? The eldest princess knew what Xiao Yan meant.

"Qiqi, you know, the affairs of the court, after all, is not the place that Zi Ran yearns for the most, he ......"

"Yes, I admit it, but even if it's not what he aspires to, he can do so well, and if he can be one mind and soul, then no one can compare it.

Little uncle, this child is destined to be born for that position, you don't know how important the emperor is over the years and how much he loves him. The eldest princess explained.

"But, but...... Ay...... Is this kid really good? Xiao Yan was still not at ease.

"As long as he has this life, then he will definitely do it!" The eldest princess believed in Jiang Ziran.

"Qiqi, don't forget, the five princes and the Yuwen family are not weaker than the Nangong family, and now that the crown prince has been deposed, they will inevitably not think about it." Xiao Yan reminded.

"Even if the crown prince doesn't fall, they have long thought about it, and now they are just helping them." The eldest princess knows the secrets.

"That means Ziran is going to fight with the five princes again?" Xiao Yan frowned.

"They are indeed the most favorable candidates at the moment, if Zi Ran can, I still prefer the emperor's choice." The eldest princess didn't hide anything from Xiao Yan.

"Why?" Xiao Yan couldn't understand why the eldest princess chose Jiang Ziran, in his opinion, Ziran's biological mother was not the most important reason.

"Because he's the best fit." The eldest princess replied with a smile.

"What's wrong with the Fifth Prince?" Xiao Yan asked again.

"The five princes are not bad, he and Zi Ran are equal in terms of ability, but they are ...... The Yuwen family, as his foreign family, is both a help and an obstacle, after all, the last thing I want to see in my dynasty is that my relatives interfere in politics, under the same conditions, Ziran will not have such worries, or rather, it will not be for a period of time. The eldest princess also spoke thoroughly.

"Whew...... It also depends on whether Ziran's kid is really willing......" Xiao Yan was a little helpless.

"Little uncle, I respect the will of God, but I believe that things are man-made, so ah...... We just need to help the children. The eldest princess smiled slightly.

"Hey...... That's all it can be......" Xiao Yan also sighed with a smile.

"Master, do you want me to visit Ran?" On General Yan's mansion, Mo Shi, who already knew the situation, asked a little anxiously.
