Chapter 108: Ascending

Pei Yuan looked at him funny, not caring at all about the anger that was about to erupt from his eyes: "Oh? Why did King Kang say this? ”

Pei Shu bowed to the emperor before continuing to face Pei Yuan: "As we all know, Shen Jiahe used to be the princess of this king, if the emperor's uncle wants to marry Shen Jiahe, won't he be laughed at by the world, and the uncle actually married a nephew and daughter-in-law of his own." ”

The smile on Pei Yuan's face was put away, he took two steps forward and approached Pei Shu, and the coldness spread all over his body, until he saw Pei Shu on the opposite side couldn't help but take a step back, and then slowly spoke: "This king marries his own nephew and daughter-in-law?" So what if someone else marries Shen Jiahe? Are you going to say that someone else is marrying a princess and going home? According to King Kang's will, the woman you divorced cannot marry again! ”

"I didn't mean that?" Pei Shu forced himself to look at Pei Yuan's eyes, trying not to suppress his momentum.

But as soon as he met Pei Yuan's eyes, he found that everything was in vain, and with such a pair of eyes as cold as winter, he had to choose to lower his head to avoid it.

"And what do you mean?" Pei Yuan snorted coldly, then turned around and arched his hand towards Shen Xiang on the side and continued, "I ask to marry Shen Jiahe, and only the Shen family is qualified to speak against here, Shen Xiang and the two little Shen adults have not spoken, what qualifications do you have to point fingers at this king here." ”

Pei Shu was speechless, Pei Yuan looked at him and sneered: "Don't say that Shen Jiahe is your princess in the future, you have to remember that you no longer have any relationship, and it is not your turn to marry this king, you must know that this king is your uncle, when will there be juniors who can dictate the marriage of the elders." ”

The emperor looked at Pei Shu, who was speechless, and couldn't help but sigh, compared to his younger brother, his son is really much worse.

The emperor had no choice but to interrupt such a one-sided checks and balances, and he set his eyes on Shen Xiang: "Shen Qing's family, King Xian asked to marry your daughter, what do you think, if you have anything, just say it, I will make the decision for you." ”

Shen Xiang raised his eyes and looked at Pei Yuan, he didn't expect him to propose the holy decree of marriage to the emperor so quickly, but thinking about the ministers who urged the marriage just now, he also knew that he was taking advantage of the situation.

He took a step forward, bowed down and replied: "Thank you, Your Majesty, the prince Yushu is in the wind, his talent is outstanding, and being able to look at the little girl is a blessing that the little girl has cultivated for several generations, and the old minister naturally has no objections." ”

The emperor took a deep look at Shen Xiang, only to feel that the situation in the court is becoming more and more out of his control, the Shen family and the Shi family have been married, and he wanted to stop it, but he couldn't do it.

Now the Shen family is going to become Pei Yuan's help again, and he has no way at all, the only thing he can count on is the sentence that Pei Yuan once said.

He only felt that there was a deep sense of powerlessness surrounding him, and seeing Pei Yuan's burning eyes staring at him, the emperor could only nod helplessly: "In this case, King Xian will come to the imperial study to receive the holy decree after the next dynasty." ”

Although all the officials were curious about why the emperor didn't issue a holy decree in the hall, this matter was already ironclad, so they didn't think about it deeply, and only went to congratulate Shen Xiang one after another.

"Shen Xiang is really blessed to have such a fast son-in-law as King Xian today!" The front foot was divorced by King Kang, and the back foot is about to show the king to ask for marriage, it is really the prime minister's daughter who does not worry about marrying!

"Now that the emperor has given me a marriage, I want to come to this happy event is also near, and we must be invited to have a few drinks when the time comes!"

Shen Xiang returned the salute one by one, and said with a smile: "It must be." ”

Pei Yuan went directly to the imperial study, the emperor was sitting behind the bookcase in the imperial study, writing the holy decree by hand, and did not immediately hand it over to the chief administrator of the decree after putting down the pen, but looked at him and asked: "What you have said in the main hall has not changed so far." ”

Pei Yuan smiled, of course he knew what the emperor was asking, so he nodded with a smile and replied: "Naturally, I just like Shen Jiahe, it has nothing to do with whose daughter she is, the imperial brother doesn't have to be nervous and think about it." ”

The emperor looked at Pei Yuan coldly, it was really not good to be seen through his thoughts at this moment, but he didn't have the slightest way, so he could only say coldly: "If you don't want me to think about it, then make a little sincerity that I believe, King Kang can't be established as the crown prince for a long time, you don't want to say anything about this matter?" ”

Pei Yuan shrugged his shoulders and innocently defended himself: "The younger brother really didn't do anything in this matter, King Kang's own virtue makes the hundred officials feel inappropriate to be made the prince, which can only be blamed on himself." However, if the imperial brother wants his subordinates to help in this matter, I can help you lobby at the homes of these opposing officials, and then assure them by the way that the subordinates have no ambition to peep into this position, what does the emperor think? This is a little bit of gratitude to me for this marriage decree. ”

The emperor looked at Pei Yuan's eyes, so as to be sure that he was sincere in what he said, and after a long time, he finally rolled up the holy decree in his hand and handed it to the chief administrator beside him, signaling that he could hand it over to Pei Yuan.

It's just that there are some things that still have to be advised: "I hope you do what you say, Pei Shu is also your own nephew, I know that he is talented and dull, but I only need him as a son who is suitable to be the prince, and I hope you can assist him well in the future." ”

This is playing the emotional card with himself again, Pei Yuan pulled the corners of his mouth: "As long as he is a good gentleman in the future, his younger brother will definitely not drag him back." ”

When Pei Yuan left, the emperor sighed and continued to write the edict of the crown prince, and the chief steward on the side stood aside to grind the ink, and asked cautiously: "What does that mean?" ”

The emperor didn't raise his head, but paused with the pen of the wolf howl: "He agreed, and with his character, what he said will not go back on his word." ”

"Then why does the emperor still sigh, you should be relieved." The chief manager secretly looked at the emperor's expression, and saw that the expression between his eyebrows became more and more thick.

The emperor was silent, and after a long time, he sighed deeply, he and the queen mother had done something wrong, and I only hoped that Pei Shu would not be affected in the future.

Pei Yuan also said that he would not forget those things, but what he will do in the future is an unknown that makes people panic.

After Pei Yuan left the palace, he fulfilled his promise and went to the homes of various opponents of Pei Shu as the crown prince, although they all felt that it was a pity that the king did not fight for the prince, and there was a great regret that the court had lost a Ming monarch.

But Pei Yuan had a resolute attitude, and they had to recognize the fact that Pei Shu was the eldest son, so they could only reluctantly agree.

The process of issuing the prince's edict the next day was unusually smooth, but everyone in the court knew the trickiness in it, and the eyes that looked at Pei Shu were also full of scrutiny and helplessness.

Pei Shu became the crown prince and was about to enter the East Palace, and as soon as the eunuchs who came to issue the decree left, the entire Kangwang Mansion became lively.

The prince has become the prince, and the concubines who are serving them will be promoted to the next level according to the etiquette, and the most important thing is that Pei Shu will be the son of heaven in the future, and they will have to live in the harem sooner or later.

But Pei Shu had a gloomy face when he came back from the next court, and he only knelt on the ground when he received the decree, and did not say thank you, and the eunuch who delivered the decree did not dare to offend the future son of heaven, so he took the official back without saying anything.

Pei Shu sat in the main hall angrily, and when he heard the noise outside, he shouted directly outside: "Grandpa Lu, what's going on outside?" ”

"Back to the crown prince, they are all concubines waiting to be rewarded, and their ranks are all to be mentioned, this is the practice of previous years." Gonggong Lu looked at Pei Shu's face was really ugly, so he had to add, "It's the same when you go to the East Palace to reward them, the old slave will let them disperse now, go back and wait for news." ”

"Wait!" Pei Shu stopped Gonggong Lu, who was walking out, and then rubbed his temples and ordered coldly, "Don't be so troublesome, you go out and make arrangements, everyone who has not slept in the house will be dismissed from the house, and let them go to the housekeeper to get a sum of money to fend for themselves." ”

Gonggong Lu looked at Pei Shu in surprise, as far as he knew, there were many people in this mansion who had never slept in the house: "Prince, is this appropriate?" ”

"If there's anything inappropriate, let you go, you can go, what a rambling thing!" Pei Shu stood up irritably and yelled impatiently.

Gonggong Lu only felt that since the princess was retired, the temper of this master was getting worse and worse, and he didn't dare to say it anymore at the moment, so he could only bow down and retreat.

He took two steps back and forth in the room, and when he raised his eyes, he saw the bright yellow decree that should have been enshrined, but now he only wanted to step on it a few times to breathe.

If he had felt that the position of the crown prince was more important in the past, but now he would rather exchange this position for Shen Jiahe's affection.

"Why are you still unhappy that you are sitting in the position of the crown prince?" Qin Xiaoshuang learned that Pei Shu became the prince for a while, she once wanted Pei Shu to be the prince, but now he is in this position, but she is not the original side concubine.

She couldn't do the former princess, and the future princess didn't have her share, she didn't want to come over to see Pei Shu's smug face, but she was surprised to see the concubines in the dismissal courtyard of Gonggong Lu, and she felt that there would be some cattiness in it that she didn't know.

"Qin Xiaoshuang, did this king warn you, if you don't have the permission of this king, you can't appear in front of this king at will." Pei Shu turned around and glared at Qin Xiaoshuang.

Qin Xiaoshuang's heart was really bitter, since when did Pei Shu look at her like this, disgust, disgust, and resentment.

"The prince has become the prince, and the slave maid naturally wants to congratulate the prince, the prince's purpose has succeeded, but he doesn't look happy!" Qin Xiaoshuang asked with a smile.

Pei Shu suddenly laughed, he looked at Qin Xiaoshuang at this time as if he was looking at a clown jumping off the beam, but he actually lost Shen Jiahe because of such a woman, and he was played around, thinking of this Pei Shu's eyes became sharp again: "Qin Xiaoshuang, you won't be a princess, you still want to be a princess, it's good to have some daydreams, if you really want to say it, it will only make people feel ridiculous." ”

This kind of contemptuous look is more painful than killing her, Qin Xiaoshuang shook her body, tried to stand up straight, and retorted unceremoniously: "I know that I can't do that position in my life, but so what? Everyone has regrets about each other, who is better than whom? ”

Qin Xiaoshuang left after speaking, she knew that if she stayed any longer, she was afraid that she would be beaten again, and she also knew that her life would not be better in the future, thinking that Bi Tao told herself that she would escape here if she had the opportunity before she died, Qin Xiaoshuang couldn't help but cry while walking, now she can't leave even if she wants to, she is destined to torture each other with Pei Shu here.

Pei Shu became the crown prince, and the happiest thing was the queen, who lost the support of her mother's family, she was very bleak in the harem for a while, and even the concubines' daily greetings were canceled by her.

Now that Pei Shu is the crown prince, her scenery is naturally back, and in the afternoon of the same day, she instructed Mama Xu and Manager Xu to hold a small banquet in the back garden, and invited several high-grade concubines in the palace.

Such news spread throughout the harem in a moment, and even the concubines who did not receive the invitation came to the banquet with a cheeky face, naturally to flatter the future queen mother, you must know that after the emperor dies in the future, the fate of these concubines can all be tied to the hands of the queen and the prince.

If it is good to send it to the temple, I am afraid that those of them who have no children will be accidentally dragged to the funeral.

All the warblers and warblers Yanyan all surrounded the queen with all kinds of flattery, so that the queen returned to the state when she had just ascended to the throne, she looked at the people around her with a smile, and felt that no matter how hard she worked on weekdays, it was worth it now.
