Chapter 409: Scheming
After the decree was issued, unexpectedly, the civil officials remained silent collectively, and even the imperial historians, who have always liked to pick bones in eggs, also collectively lost their voices.
The Xungui clan sat and waited to see the civil official group and Zhou Heng tear it up, but I didn't expect that a few days later, the court was calm, according to reliable news from the palace, there was not a single letter against the imperial conquest, let alone go to Zuo Shunmen to meditate.
That's weird.
The princess of Lin'an County couldn't sit still first, she was waiting to see a good show, so quiet, how could she do it? She thought about it again, and under the pretext that the great-granddaughter of the princess of Duanfen County had just turned one year old, she brought a gift to the Duanfen County Palace.
couldn't say three sentences, and when it came to the emperor's personal conquest, Princess Duanfen County said: "It's not that the imperial historians have changed their temperament, but they have made trouble in Zuoshunmen a few times before, and they haven't been able to eat well." This time, the emperor was determined to conquer himself, and it was useless for the imperial history to kneel down to the left and follow the door. ”
Every time I went to Zuoshunmen before, in the end, it was not disgraced, and it ended in the emperor's victory? Yushi is a tendon, yes, but not stupid. There is no one who can be stupid in the two rankings of Jinshi in the reading army examination that thousands of troops crowded the single-plank bridge, and can become an official in Beijing.
"So that's it?" The princess of Lin'an County still didn't give up, she didn't persuade her, she was too unaccustomed to it. In the past, the imperial historians went to Zuoshunmen to make trouble, although she couldn't enter the palace to see it in person, she was very happy to talk to people.
Princess Duanfen said strangely: "If you don't forget it, what can you do?" ”
The emperor is very authoritative, don't say that the imperial history can't do anything about him, even the patriarch of Duanfen County, when he sees him, he has to laugh with him, and talk to him in a good voice.
The princess of Lin'an County said: "The emperor is personally recruiting, and it is a great risk. There are no eyes on the battlefield, in case ......"
What if it hangs like Emperor Zhi'an? Ah, no, what if the misfortune dies?
The princess of Duanfen County said unhappily: "What nonsense? The emperor is wise and wise, how can he be compared to the first emperor? ”
The old lady still had a good impression of Zhou Heng, the emperor, and taught her: "Only when the country and the people are safe, can we live a peaceful and stable life, and you can't have bad intentions." Otherwise, don't say anything else. I'll be the first to spare you. ”
The princess of Duanfen County is the oldest and highest-ranking woman in the clan. If she really has something, as long as it is not a matter of principle, Cui Keyin still has to sell her old face. What's more, the princess of Lin'an County? Hearing her say this, I was really shocked. Again and again he has shown himself to be faithful. Wholeheartedly looking forward to the emperor's victorious return.
Princess Duanfen County's face was slightly pale. "That's pretty much it. ”
The princess of Lin'an County saw that the princess of Duanfen County's face was softened, and said with a smile: "I seem to have heard that there is another sentence in the holy decree. Said that the queen was also going to go on the expedition together? ”
The princess of Duanfen County said: "This, no one can think of it." Unexpectedly, the emperor and the mother had a deep affection, and they did not want to separate for a moment. In the battlefield, there are no eyes for knives and guns, you say, what is the mother going to do? The emperor needs someone to serve closely, and the concubine is enough. ”
The queen is a wife, so she should be in the middle palace, how can she be by her side? Don't say that you are the queen, even the commander of the expedition, and you will not let the main room accompany the army.
The princess of Duanfen County forgot that the commander who went on the expedition did not necessarily want his wife to accompany him, but the court system did not allow it. When the general goes out, his family must stay in Beijing to prevent the general from rebelling. The emperor is the first person in the world, there are no rules to control him, he wants to take the queen to the expedition together, who dares to say no?
Besides, the courtiers strongly objected, an important reason was that they were worried that Zhou Heng would go on the expedition and hand over the government to Cui Keyin, in case he made another Wu Zetian, how could it be good? Now that Cui Keyin has left Beijing with her car, the government has entrusted Cui Zhenyi, which is still in the hands of the courtiers, at least there is no danger of making a female emperor, and they are much easier to accept.
"yes, yes." The princess of Lin'an County said: "I said so too." The emperor has been on the throne for two years, and it is time to take a concubine. I have a sister in my mother's family, who looks like a flower and has a gentle temperament, and she is only fifteen years old this year, and I still want to send her into the palace. ”
But the palace has not given the will of the concubine for a long time, and her mother's sister has a long neck, and her mother's family has been urged several times, and if she waits, the clan sister will become an old girl.
The princess of Duanfen County did not speak, and lowered her head to twist the Buddhist beads in her hand.
"Aunt Zu, you said, isn't it good for the queen to be so petted? Now that the emperor's heirs are thin, if he can accept a few concubines, wouldn't he be able to give birth to a few more princes? If Aunt Zu can promote this beautiful thing, as long as my mother's sister enters the palace, she will definitely let Ah Chuan be knighted, at least a viscount will not be able to escape. The princess of Lin'an County continued.
Since it comes to this problem, it is better to give her some sweetness, let her enter the palace to talk to Cui Keyin, and let Zhou Hengna and a few beautiful girls enter the palace. With the appearance of her mother's sister, it must be no problem to hold Zhou Heng. A twenty-year-old hairy boy, who is at the age of hot blood, can't he pounce on him when he sees a beautiful girl?
Ah Chuan is the most beloved grandson of the princess of Duanfen County, but he is not long, there is no hope of attacking the lord, and he studies hard day and night, hoping to enter the imperial examination. How can the imperial examination be so easy?
The princess of Duanfen County twisted the one hundred and eight Buddha beads in her hand before she spoke: "I am too old to sit for a long time, and after sitting for less than an hour, my whole body is sore." Alas, it's useless to get old. ”
What does that mean? The princess of Lin'an County was puzzled.
The princess of Duanfen County instructed the maid Qinglian to help her lie down, close her eyes, and seem to be asleep.
Qinglian smiled and said to the princess of Lin'an County: "My ancestor is tired, and I ask the princess to forgive me." The princess invited tea outside, and the slave maid went to invite the prince and the lady to come over. ”
Mrs. Shizi is the eldest daughter-in-law of the princess of Duanfen County, because the king of Duanfen County is still alive, the eldest son has been the son for decades, and he has always been the son, and the eldest daughter-in-law has always been Mrs. Shizi. The princess of Duanfen County has ignored the affairs of the house, and if it weren't for the sake of the clan, she wouldn't have met her.
Only then did Princess Lin'an Fen understand that the princess of Duanfen County had issued an eviction order.
"This old fox." The princess of Lin'an County hated and scolded in her heart.
After she said goodbye and left, the princess of Duanfen County lifted the brocade quilt and sat up, and said to Qinglian: "She looks stupid, but she treats everyone else as a fool." Didn't you see that Zhou Quan was so angry that he almost died in order to persuade the emperor to take a concubine? Do you still want me to come forward for her and make a proposal to the queen to let the emperor take a concubine? Hmph, she doesn't know whether she lives or dies, when others are like her? ”
Qinglian pursed her lips and chuckled, "She wants to be the royal prince and wants to go crazy." ”
Don't think that the clan is very beautiful, this generation has been passed down from generation to generation, and the blood relationship is gradually thinning, and some clans with distant blood are just looking at the scenery on the surface, but in fact, life is more difficult than ordinary people. If you want to maintain this glory, you can only go to the emperor. It's just that it's not easy to show your face in front of the emperor and let the emperor remember you.
What the princess of Lin'an County thought of was the way to get married. As long as the emperor accepts the sister of the family she married as a concubine, and there is a sister blowing the pillow wind in front of the emperor, it is difficult for the king of Lin'an County to think about the scenery.
The emperor even took the queen with him when he went on the expedition, which shows that he is not seen for a day as if he was every other autumn. How dare the princess of Duanfen County wade into this troubled water and offend the queen in vain? (To be continued.) )
