Chapter 515: Opportunity

Cui Keyin and Zhou Heng stared at each other, both having the feeling of the rest of their lives.

This night, the two hugged each other and slept together, and they both felt extremely down-to-earth.

On the fifth watch, Zhou Heng got up as usual to freshen up and go to the morning court, and Cui Keyin continued to sleep until three o'clock in the morning.

Mrs. Zhang and Jiang came early in the morning and drank tea in the banquet room. Yesterday, when Mrs. Zhang left, she said that she would come back today, and Zhou Heng agreed. However, Zhou Heng was so focused on Cui Keyin that no matter how she looked at her, he felt that he was not enough, and forgot to tell her about it.

Cui Keyin didn't know that Mrs. Zhang and the Jiang family were coming, so she just slept peacefully.

Lu Ying accompanied each other in the banquet room, and when she talked about yesterday's danger, Mrs. Zhang put her hands together and chanted the Buddha, and said, "Thanks to the Bodhisattva's blessing." ”

Jiang and Mrs. Zhang discussed: "Why don't you pick an auspicious day and go to Baoguo Temple to make a vow?" It's time to donate some sesame oil money. ”

"It should. Just donate a thousand taels, what do you think? Mrs. Zhang said thoughtfully.

The two discussed, Cui Keyin got up, learned that the two were coming, and came over as soon as she finished freshening up.

After seeing the ceremony, Mrs. Zhang took Cui Keyin's hand, looked up and down carefully, and said, "It's thinner than before." ”

Both Lu Ying and Jiang laughed. Jiang smiled: "It's time to make up for it." Can Dr. Wang prescribe a tocolytic? ”

Cui Keyin helped Mrs. Zhang sit down and said, "Let my grandmother and aunt worry, it's mine." It has already been opened. ”

Mrs. Zhang asked yesterday's events again and said, "The Queen Mother is too much!" ”

Jiang said to Cui Keyin: "A few days ago, your eldest uncle said that the Queen Mother may have promised the Shen family a very high concubine, and now it seems that it is very likely that she has been promised the position of queen." Shen Yuan has completely opposed your eldest uncle, and has formed his own faction with Jiangxi officials to fight with your eldest uncle. ”

By the time Emperor An was there, the party struggle was already very strict. After Zhou Heng ascended the throne, he took the opportunity of the ministers kneeling down to Zuoshunmen to threaten him to accept concubines, and purged a batch. For the past two years, all the parties have been lurking underground. I don't dare to act publicly, I don't dare to claim that I am a certain faction. It seems that Shen Yuan has provoked this sign again.

Generally speaking, political parties are divided by the nationality of officials. For example, Shen Yuan is from Jiangxi, so he naturally forms a faction with officials from Jiangxi. Cui Zhenyi is from Qinghe and is naturally a member of the Hebei faction.

That is to say, it is divided by provinces, and the officials in Beijing in each province are divided into a group, and everyone advances and retreats together. Forcing the emperor to make concessions for a certain purpose. At the end of the day, it's about power.

In the DPRK and China, Jiangxi officials are the most numerous. It seems that Shen Yuan has done whatever it takes to make Shen Qing the queen.

Cui Keyin frowned and said, "In this way, isn't it difficult for the emperor to issue a decree?" ”

If the party struggle resumes, the ministers go to the court every day to patronize and talk about some and some things, and when dealing with political affairs, they only think that this matter is beneficial to their own faction, and what they discuss every day is how to force the emperor to obey their own ideas. How else does Zhou Heng govern the country? If this continues, the country will perish.

Jiang said: "Yes, your eldest uncle is also worried. ”

There are far fewer officials from Hebei than from Jiangxi, and there are fewer people in high positions, and there are even fewer outstanding talents. I'm afraid that Cui Zhenyi is worried about losing in the party struggle, right?

"Does the emperor know about this?" Cui Keyin said.

Speaking of which, the secret agent is beginning to take shape, even Cui Zhenyi knows it, and Zhou Heng definitely knows it. But she hadn't heard a word from him.

Jiang shook his head and said, "This, I don't know." ”

When the husband and wife talk about the emperor, they can't sue her, right?

Cui Keyin called Zilan in and asked.

Zilan said with a smile: "Niangniang just needs to raise the baby with peace of mind." Is there anything that the emperor doesn't know? You can rest assured. ”

Cui Keyin nodded. No longer bothered about this, but asked about Cui Muhua. He and Gu Yu are newly married, can the family get along harmoniously?

Seeing that it was nearly noon, Cui Keyin left Mrs. Zhang and Jiang to have dinner. Because Wang Zhongfang told her not to move for the time being, she did not accompany her. The two of them had dinner and left.

Zhou Heng is back.

Seeing Bi, Mrs. Zhang was not at ease in the end, and advised: "Niangniang's birth is not as good as last time, you must be careful." ”

Zhou Heng nodded and said, "I will get it." "Let Lu Ying send the two out of the palace.

Cui Keyin sat down and talked to Zhou Heng about the resurgence of party strife.

Zhou Heng said: "Shen Yuan thinks he has the support of the Queen Mother. There is no fear. Hehe, if you want to send a woman to the palace, you have to ask me if I agree. ”

Do you really think that if you let your daughter become the queen, you will be able to control him? Just like Shen Qing, will he be fascinated?

Thinking of the grim situation he would face, Cui Keyin said worriedly: "What is the emperor going to do?" ”

Zhou Heng categorically would not sit idly by and watch such a thing happen. However, if the party struggle resumes, can he support the overall situation alone? When Emperor An was in power, he let the party fight go unattended, and Wang Zhe was allowed to do wrong, and the ministers did not let him go, and made a fuss about his lack of heirs every day.

Although Zhou Heng's style is stronger, in the end it is difficult to defeat four fists with both hands.

"What's so hard?" Zhou Heng showed Bai Sensen's teeth and said, "You just have to raise the fetus with peace of mind, and watch me kill these courtiers in one go." ”

Seeing that he was so confident and so calm, Cui Keyin suddenly smiled. Her husband is always true of his word, and his promise has never been disappointed.

The early dynasty was discussed until near noon, and after the dispersal of the dynasty, Shen Yuan did not leave the palace directly, but came to Lihuamen. There is an arrow tower on the Lihua Gate, and the Queen Mother is sitting in it at this time, and Shen Qing is waiting by the side.

"See the mother." After Shen Yuan paid his respects, he got up and said, "The queen is pregnant, and the matter of accepting a concubine is urgent. ”

The Queen Mother said solemnly: "Exactly." The queen is pregnant and can't sleep, so she should arrange for the concubines to go into the palace to sleep, and the emperor can't be left alone in the empty room. ”

Zhou Heng didn't show up yesterday, and a group of wolf-like guards came, not only smashed the courtyard gate of the wind and green willows, but also openly rescued Cui Keyin's palace attendants, including a group of henchmen, which made her very angry and almost went to Taimiao to cry Emperor Wenzong. This morning, it was also rumored that Cui Keyin had a happy pulse, what is going on! That woman, why is she pregnant again?

Fortunately, Shen Yuan handed a letter into the palace early and asked her to meet here, and Shen Qing repeatedly persuaded Cui Keyin that she was pregnant, and now she could be a concubine for Zhou Heng. From this point of view, this matter is not a bad thing, and her anger has been suppressed a little.

Shen Yuan is just a foreign minister, how can he walk in the palace like walking on the ground? How can you deliver a message, such as writing a letter to an old friend? This qiē is all because of the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother is in the palace. He was extremely satisfied with the current changes, and signaled Shen Qing to be more attentive to the Queen Mother with his eyes, and after getting Shen Qing's nod, he said: "Niangniang is the emperor's mother, and when she is the Queen Mother, she should start arranging this matter." ”

Cui Keyin was pregnant, and the Queen Mother came forward to arrange concubines for Zhou Heng, which was logical. In this world, no one can wronged the emperor, who dares to let the emperor be pure and have few desires for ten months? If she is as strong as a queen, she will not dare.

Shen Qing felt that his spring had come. (To be continued.) )
