Chapter 57: The Battle in the Palace

The ten princes said goodbye to the emperor and came out, had nothing to do, and went to the palace garden for a walk. Seeing that the roses were blooming just right, the flowers were bright red, and they were delicate, so they cut a few branches with their own hands, put them in a crystal vase, and ordered the little attendant to hold them and go to Kunning Palace.

"Mother, honor you." Seeing Empress Zhang, the Ten Princes hurriedly took the vase from the little chamberlain and handed it to Empress Zhang.

Empress Zhang smiled, "This flower is red and gorgeous, and it attracts people." "Take it yourself. praised a few words and handed it to the palace maid next to him, "Put it in the dormitory, remember to change the water every day." Lianxin bent her knees and agreed, pursed her lips and smiled: "Niangniang's bedroom has always been refreshing and refreshing, and flowers are rarely placed. This bottle of roses was personally offered by His Royal Highness the Ten, so he has this blessing. He happily held a vase and placed it in Queen Zhang's bedroom.

The ten princes sent flowers, and the joy on Queen Zhang's expression was from the heart, and Lianxin saw it in her eyes, and she was also happy for Queen Zhang. Lianxin is the son of Empress Zhang's mother's family, the Marquis of Jinxiang, and she is different from ordinary palace maids.

Empress Zhang's originally obviously old face glowed with a different kind of brilliance.

The Ten Princes couldn't bear to tell Empress Zhang the truth, but this matter couldn't be hidden, she would know the Tao sooner or later, and it would be better to know the Tao sooner rather than later.

"Dad doesn't know why, he wants to give me and my three younger brothers the title in advance." The Ten Princes seemed to mention it inadvertently.

A hint of ridicule flashed in Queen Zhang's eyes, "It's okay for Xiao Shi, it's only two years away from being ten years old." Those who don't know a few words, can't speak or walk, what's going on. ”

Prince Feng is not a matter of the emperor simply issuing an edict, and it is very tiring to go through all kinds of cumbersome etiquette. Can a five-year-old child participate in this ceremony in the whole process? For a child who can't walk yet, could it be that the canonized prince wants the nurse to hold him and bow down on his behalf?

It's all a bad idea.

The tenth prince said helplessly: "Mother, I have resigned, but my father will not allow it." "I knew something was wrong, so I came all the way to tell you. Although I know that the way is inappropriate, it seems that my father has made up his mind, and there is no way.

Empress Zhang's expression was calm, without the slightest hint of panic or anger. She lovingly caressed the ten princes and smiled faintly, "Little Shi, my mother knows what she said, and she knows it in her heart." ”

If the Qiu family really had three sons who were crowned princes, wouldn't it be even more vigorous? If the eleventh, twelfth, and thirteenth princes were canonized before they were old, of course, it shows that they are favored and valued, and they are different.

Maybe Qiu's ambition is even greater, not only to glorify the eleventh, twelfth, and thirteenth princes, but also to go one step further. Then, it depends on whether she has the ability and whether she has this blessing.

It's cold in the heights. Whether a man or a woman, if you want to stand on a high place, you must have both ability and blessing, both of which are indispensable.

The tenth prince complained: "Dad wrote a few titles for me to see, let me pick one." Those titles are not spirited, and I don't like any of them. Mother, I don't want to be crowned king so early. ”

Empress Zhang smiled, "Xiao Shi, it's the same when you become king." "The current emperor is your father, and the next emperor is your eldest brother, no matter who is the emperor, your title will be the best, and the domain will be the fattest.

The Ten Princes nodded, "What you said is extremely true. Mother, if your father discusses with you, if you can persuade you, if you can't, pick a good title for me. ”

Empress Zhang smiled, "Niang saved." ”

The ten princes had dinner in Kunning Palace, and talked to Queen Zhang for a long time, and Queen Zhang ordered the attendants to carry lanterns and send him back to the East Three Places where the princes lived.

If it is an ordinary prince, after living in the East Third Institute, he gradually became estranged from his biological mother, and became close to his grandmother and nanny. The Ten Princes are different from ordinary princes, he is not only the queen's concubine, the emperor also pampers and indulges him, whether he wants to go to Qianqing Palace or Kunning Palace, no one dares to stop him. Mama and nanny only obey his orders and don't dare to care about him at all.

This is the benefit of having a father and a mother, and both parents love him.

Empress Zhang sent her youngest son away, summoned a few chamberlains and grandmothers one by one, and asked carefully about the situation in Qianqing Palace and Guangfu Palace, and never let go of the very small places.

Mama Lu in Queen Zhang's palace followed her into the palace from the Marquis of Jinxiang Mansion in the early years, she was loyal and worried about Queen Zhang, "Niangniang, if the Qiu family is not greedy enough and wants to go up, what should I do?" There is no more noble concubine in the palace than the noble concubine. ”

The concubine is further up, and she is the queen. In fact, Qiu Guifei, the favorite concubine, is almost the deputy queen, except for Queen Zhang in the harem, she is the most majestic. If she wants to go to the next level, she is too greedy.

Empress Zhang smiled lightly, "The Qiu family is a person who has little wisdom but no great wisdom, so there is nothing to worry about." Seeing that the queen mother was so determined, Mama Lu felt a little relieved, "Exactly, the concubine of the Qiu family who was neglected had no education when she was young, and she couldn't tell the priorities. ”

Queen Zhang disposed of all the things that should be disposed of, washed up, and went to bed to rest. Lying on the bed alone, Queen Zhang smiled bitterly, the Qiu family is indeed only smart and has no great wisdom, but where does the emperor need wisdom? He was lustful from a young age and did not value a woman's mind. is lustful, this is nothing, but when he was nearly half a hundred years old, he suddenly favored Qiu, which was really embarrassing.

Young and beautiful concubines, you can have as many as you have in the palace; The arrogant and domineering concubine, one or two is harmless; But the concubine who spends the room alone, the ambitious concubine, makes people have to guard against it.

Queen Zhang thought about it and didn't fall asleep in the middle of the night. When I woke up early the next day, I was a little out of spirit. The emperor came over surrounded by chamberlains and palace maids, and when he saw her yellow face, he was also worried, "What is wrong with such a bad face?" ”

The emperor seemed to have a confidant to tell her, so he sent the chamberlains and palace maids away, sat down face to face, and looked at her gently.

Empress Zhang smiled and said jokingly: "It's just that I can't sleep alone." ”

The emperor had not flirted with her for many years, and he was surprised to hear such a sentence. She is also quite playful like this, and if she is thirty years younger, she should be very cute......

Empress Zhang looked at him with a smile, as if she had already understood his thoughts, just waiting for him to say word by word.

The emperor hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "Xiao Shi is almost past his eighth birthday, and I plan to canonize him as a prince as soon as possible." The canonization ceremony was cumbersome, and it was not easy to prepare, so I planned to do it together with the eleventh, twelfth, and thirteenth. ”

Anyway, there is a trouble, and even the three small ones have been canonized together, and the province will have to toss again in the future, consuming manpower, material and financial resources.

Empress Zhang smiled and excused herself, "Xiao Shi is only eight years old, and it will be just two years later." Besides, in two years, Xiao Thirteen will be able to walk anyway, and it looks like a thing. ”

The emperor insisted, "Don't wait any longer, it's better to do it earlier." Empress Zhang didn't insist, and said with a smile: "So, thank you, Your Majesty." Xiao Shi can be crowned king as soon as possible, I can only be happy. ”

The emperor was also pleased.

After being happy for a while, the emperor coughed, "Empress, the Qiu family has served me diligently, and has given birth to three princes for me. Eleven, twelfth, and thirteenth canonized as princes, Qiu's mother is more expensive than her son, so she will be promoted to another level, okay? ”

Empress Zhang had already been prepared, and she was not angry when she heard this, she sat calmly, and the clouds were light, "What kind of promotion method, please make it clear to Your Majesty." ”

The emperor still admires Empress Zhang. Look, she is getting old, but this Yongrong, this calmness, which can be compared to ordinary women? Above the concubine is the queen, I said that I want the Qiu family to be promoted to another level, but her face does not change, it is really good!

Mother is the only one in the world.

The emperor smiled proudly, "I plan to set up an imperial concubine above the concubine." The imperial concubine is one level lower than the queen, and like the queen, there are books and treasures, but the imperial concubine's treasure seal is just for a show, the queen, the Qiu family is young, let's just coax the children to play. ”

Empress Zhang was angry, so don't mention it. When the queen was canonized, there was a golden book (the document of the queen), a golden treasure (the queen's treasure seal), and below the concubine, there was a book without a treasure. What kind of imperial concubine are you going to get out now, and you have to give her Jinbao according to the queen's appearance, you ...... You think that the harem is too stopping, and the days are too smooth, and you want to cause trouble.

What about coaxing children, Qiu's children have given birth to three, where is still an innocent girl?

If you get your wish, how can I lead the six palaces in the future and manage these dozens of concubines and thousands of palace maids for you? Who will obey me, and how many people will have different hearts!

Empress Zhang laughed angrily, "Okay, that's how it is handled!" The third son of the Qiu family was crowned king at a young age, and the Qiu family was promoted to the imperial concubine, with a book and treasure, and a deputy queen, who condescended to my old wife, and wronged her, a peerless beauty. ”

Go and see if the civil servants in the cabinet will do it for you! You should deal with these civil officials first, and then we will slowly think about the next things.

Empress Zhang smiled very gently, and the emperor hesitated again and again before deciding that she was sincere, not sarcastic.

The emperor was very happy and refreshed, "Empress, you are very generous and knowledgeable!" I know that the queen is virtuous, and there will be no objections! ”

Empress Zhang smiled reservedly, "Your Majesty has won the prize." ”

The emperor took out the titles of "Wei, Liang, Huai, Teng, Xiang, Jing" and asked Empress Zhang to help choose, Empress Zhang took a look at it and chose "Wei" for the ten princes, "This title is better, and most of the domains are rich." The emperor readily agreed, "Give this to our little ten." ”

The emperor hesitated and wanted to leave, and was anxious to tell Qiu Guifei the great news, but Empress Zhang really couldn't face the emperor's bloated figure and fat face, and felt that it was simply ugly, so she sent him away with a smile, "Go and tell the Qiu family about it, and let her be happy." The emperor felt more and more considerate and generous Empress Zhang, and praised a few words with satisfaction, and Shi Shiran left.

"Imperial concubine?" Empress Zhang sneered again and again, "Qiu, you are killing yourself, don't blame me for being ruthless." ”

Imperial Concubine? Golden Book Jinbao? Qiu, you want to be the deputy queen justifiably, see if you have this life. Empress Zhang thought coolly.

The author has something to say: The first imperial concubine in the official history was the famous Wan Zhen'er, but she was not the first person to be canonized as an imperial concubine, the first was Zhu Qiyu's favorite concubine Tang. This Tang imperial concubine ended up very miserably, and Zhu Qiyu was ousted within a few months of being canonized, so of course she was not an imperial concubine. After Zhu Qiyu died, he wanted to be martyred, and the Tang family was discussed, but "the concubine was speechless" and was martyred.

Tang definitely didn't want to be buried, but she didn't speak, probably because she knew in her heart that it was useless to say that she didn't agree, and it would attract a lot of ridicule.
