The dignified Guogong Mansion has to buy a girl to call the prince, isn't this a loss of face for the Han family? Besides, where is the good family born when you buy it, not to mention that these girls not only have to serve the Han family, but also have to be the people in the house for him, how can they use the bought ones lightly?

But is there really only one Qianyun Qingxia in the house?

Eshi glared at Mama Ning again, "You haven't been paying much attention to your business lately." ”

Mama Ning was awe-inspiring: "The slave doesn't dare." ”

Eshi exhaled and ignored her anymore.

After a moment of silence, she suddenly got up again and walked to the corner of the room, reached out and took out two identical small white porcelain vases from the dark cabinet, and clenched them in her hands with an unpredictable expression.

Suddenly he reached out and threw the bottle back into the cupboard, and he didn't know what to think, but the next second he took it back, this time as if he had made up his mind, and his grip was tighter than before. She clenched her fists and walked back, frowning, "Didn't you say that he wouldn't go out for a few days?" Then give this to them, give them another chance, and if they haven't made any progress, replace them! ”

Mama Ning took the medicine and looked at it, her eyes also showed a cold light, and she hooked her head and said, "Yes." ”

Han Ji returned to the house at dusk, accompanied by Gu Zhicheng and Gu Song. Because Wei Guogong was about to return to the court, the emperor also paid attention to the situation of the military department and the major battalions. After the Marseille was held in the palace last year, the emperor selected a group of high-quality stallions in the Taifu Temple for breeding.

In addition, after Wei Guogong returned to the court, the positions of the generals in the Chinese military camp also had to be adjusted, and some of the soldiers who Wei Guogong withdrew from the northwest had experience in horse warfare on the ground, so he had the intention to put forward those who won the championship in Marseille last time to set up an elite cavalry battalion, which was set up under the Shenshu battalion, but it was an independent battalion, and the military department recently discussed the battalion commander of this battalion.

Last time, Gu Song, Han Ji and Xue Zhu all won the championship in Marseille, and it stands to reason that they all have a share in the camp, but the problem is that they each have military power in their respective families, especially Han Ji, who is now the son of the world, if he goes to take charge of this elite cavalry battalion, it is obvious that he will be suspected of excessive centralization, but what the emperor means is that although they need to be in charge of the major battalions in the future, they can temporarily take on the position of commander for the time being.

The early court did not make a clear statement in front of the emperor, so they made an appointment to come to the Wei Mansion.

Gu Song has been honed in the camp for more than half a year, he is a lot burly, and he still speaks little, but he used to be silent, but now he seems experienced and calm, because he was only recalled by the emperor from the camp yesterday, Han Ji asked him some daily life, and there was a scolding voice from Xue Zhu outside the door: "Xiao Dong, you stop me!" ”

Saying that, Dong Kuan hugged a bird cage, jumped in from outside the door with a smile, and saw Gu Zhicheng hurriedly straightened up, and shouted: "Third Uncle Gu." Then he came to Han Ji, hid the bird cage behind him, and squeezed Gu Song in the same chair with him in one hand.

Xue stopped and jumped in: "Give me back my birds!" As soon as he saw Gu Zhicheng there, he immediately became honest.

Gu Zhicheng said: "Just the two of you?" ”

Xue stopped glaring at Dong Slow, and said to Gu Zhicheng: "Second Uncle Dong and my father are lagging behind, so they must be coming soon." ”

As he was talking, he heard Xin Yiying go out and say, "The two princes, please." ”

Han Ji and Gu Zhicheng glanced at each other, then got up with a smile and greeted the second son of Xue Dong under the corridor.

In front of their respective fathers, Xue Zhidong didn't dare to make a mistake, so he gave Tao Xing a look. Tao Xing knew that the two of them had come to fight cocks and lackeys in private, and the bird might have come from somewhere, so he silently carried it to the door for them.

Everyone is busy with their own routines, although there are often small gatherings, but they haven't seen each other for some days, so they immediately greeted each other. When the wine and food were served, Dong Shizi looked at Han Ji, who was holding a pot and pouring wine, and said: "Ji'er's complexion has improved these days, I heard that the imperial doctor will come to see you every month, I don't know if the residual poison in your body has been exhausted?" If not, you can use this as an excuse to postpone this errand. ”

Han Ji smiled at each other when he heard this, and said, "In this way, Third Brother Dong also means that he doesn't want to wade into this muddy water?" ”

Dong Shizi nodded and said, "This elite battalion commander looks very tempting, but after thinking about it, it is not good for a few of us. We already have the military power of the major battalions in our hands, and if we are greedy for more and serve as this elite battalion, and commit crimes in the northwest in Japan, I am afraid that we will inevitably be announced to the northwest.

"We all know what the emperor thinks about us, although we will not seize power right now, but we will inevitably look for opportunities to disperse the power of the major battalions. On the way here, I also discussed a few words with Second Brother Xue, and we both felt that whether it was a trap or not, it was best not to get involved. ”

Xue Shizi frowned and nodded: "Yes, you can't chew too much, you and I are not ambitious, the emperor said that we have too much power and can't manage it, so we have cut the military power of our major battalions, how can we have to compensate for the loss?" ”

Gu Zhicheng drank a glass of wine and said, "Speaking of which, now that the emperor is in his hands, it seems that we should not even have this bit of military power." I think if it weren't for the fact that the cabinet and the elders of the cabinet were supporting them, I'm afraid that he, Zhao Jian, would have already opened his mouth to collect military power from us? ”

The Gu family has always been a little resentful of the emperor because of the empress, and now that there are no outsiders, they can't help but call the emperor's name.

When we were young, we often called the emperor brothers, and they were all our own people, so they never felt rebellious. Besides, the Dong family was reprimanded by the emperor because of Pang Dingbei's incident, and this suffocation has been holding back, and it is already good not to agree with Gu Zhicheng to scold the emperor a few words, where do you think that Gu Zhicheng's words are inappropriate?

It's just that the Xue family has nothing to do with the decline, but the four families share honor and disgrace, advance and retreat together, can there be other thoughts?

Han Ji is the youngest among his peers, and the situation is slightly different from that of their families, but after all, he is still a member of the Han family, and he also holds the title of the Han family, so he naturally has to think about the future of the Han family.

The atmosphere at the dinner table immediately became solemn.

"My brother Gu's words, even if they are not true, they are not far behind." Dong Shizi looked at Xue Shizi and said.

Han Ji motioned to the little servant to pour wine for everyone, Gu Zhicheng looked at everyone, and said: "According to me, if such a person is still allowed to sit on the country in this Great Zhou, I am afraid that the foundation we have laid together will not last long." ”

Everyone raised their heads, and Dong Shizi frowned and said, "Sincerity means that you want to-" He made a push-down gesture.

Gu Zhicheng smiled: "Where did the second brother go." Although I Gu Zhicheng is reckless, I dare not forget the four words of loyalty, filial piety and benevolence. Since we embraced the Zhao family in the first place, if they are affectionate and righteous to us, what reason do I have to overthrow him? I'm just worried, this prince has not been established, and I don't know who will succeed him in the future, and whether the successor will be more benevolent or worse than the current emperor? ”

Everyone couldn't help but ponder when they heard this, it is true that they did not have the idea of opposing the emperor, but Gu Zhicheng's worries were the worries of all of them, and now the emperor did not accept the military power, not that he did not want to accept it, but he had no chance to accept it.

At that time, the country was fought down by everyone, if there was a bad heart, he would not give up this country to the Zhao family to sit, he only had some military power in his hands, and some of it was in the hands of the emperor, but it has only been more than ten years, if you can't even keep this bit of military power, and you don't even have this trust, what is the value of the dedication and loyalty of the nobles?

has no military power, and has military exploits, at that time, the emperor can squeeze you as much as he wants.

"It's hateful that the descendants of the Zhao family are not of great use, that is, there are a few people in the side branches who can get by, but now that the emperor has a son on his knees, it is naturally impossible to pass over. And the King of Liao has long been out of the game, and speaking of which, only King Zheng and King Chu may succeed to the throne. But among King Zheng and King Chu, who should we support? ”

At this time, Gu Song said.

Xue stopped a glass of wine and said, "Neither of them is a good thing!" ”

Xue Shizi slapped him on the back of the head: "How do you speak?" After the filming, he said to everyone: "But what they said is also right, it has been two or three years since the prince was deposed, and it is time to discuss the matter of establishing a prince." Originally, none of us wanted to wade into this troubled water, but now, even if we don't, the emperor may not be able to trust us.

"That being the case, we might as well help a prince out by ourselves, and then it will be better than stretching out your neck and waiting to be cut!"

Everyone looked at each other when they heard this.

Gu Zhicheng saw that Han Ji didn't speak for a long time, so he asked, "What does Ji'er think?" ”

Han Ji pondered for a moment and said, "I also agree with Brother Xue's words, King Zheng and King Chu are indeed not the best choice for the king.

"However, throughout the ages, there have not been many emperors who can really be called saints, but there have been so many changes in dynasties, and only a few have really made the people's lives miserable. Whether it is King Zheng or King Chu, as long as we hold the military power in our hands and jointly support this court with the cabinet and hundreds of officials, we are not afraid of anything big.

"Count the days, my father is coming back soon, and I think it's safer to act after discussing with several grandfathers of the country when the matter of establishing the prince is established. At present, let's discuss the matter of the elite battalion first, in the end, the emperor is now in good health, and we will have a long time to fight with him. ”

Gu Zhicheng hummed and nodded.

Xue Dong and everyone also thought so, after all, it was the princes of the country who were in charge of the power in the various mansions, and the matter of establishing the prince was very important, how could it be decided after a few of them were interested? It's just an impromptu discussion.

It was agreed here that everyone in the elite camp would not go, and then the emperor would find a reason to push it down, and then Xue Shizi mentioned that he came out of the palace the day before yesterday and saw that the Internal Affairs Office was raising a list of older palace people, and said that there will be a draft in the palace next year, and when it comes to the children of the clan, including King Zheng and King Chu, they have reached the age of marriage, and the topic will diverge.

Han Ji listened here for a moment, pinched a glass of wine in his hand, and said casually: "I heard that after the crown prince was deposed, the crown princess was also imprisoned in the cold palace. Later, there was no news of them, and I wonder if she is still alive? ”R1152
