Chapter 202: Alone with the Crown Princess (Ask for Subscription!) )
…
"I'll just break in, what can you do with me?"
How can Cai still take Zhu Lian?
Of course, it can't be anything, Zhu Lian is the crown princess, the future queen of Zhao Song, Cai Neng can knead her, or can he pinch her flat?
But Zhu Lian thought that she had forced her in, and that was the end of it, so she underestimated Cai Yi too much.
Cai still saluted Zhu Lian very respectfully, and then invited Zhu Lian in very politely, and personally entertained Zhu Lian for tea.
But just when Zhu Lian thought she had won, Cai still suddenly said to the attendants kneeling at the door: "Punish you for three months, and each of you will go and get thirty military sticks." ”
These attendants have suffered and cannot speak.
It's really not that they don't want to stop Zhu Lian, but Zhu Lian relies on the fact that she is the crown princess and a woman, and she forced herself inside, how do you tell them to stop her?
But then again, it is also an indisputable fact that they did not stop Zhu Lian, as the gatekeepers, they were obviously derelict in their duties, so Cai still punished them like this, and they were not wronged.
Cai is still the same thing.
Therefore, although they were extremely aggrieved in their hearts, they still responded in unison: "No! Then he went down to receive the punishment.
Seeing this, Zhu Lian was a little unbearable, she said: "I don't blame them for this, I broke in, you ......"
Cai still interrupted Zhu Lian and said: "If anyone is like you, the crown princess, and you break into my place of residence, then my life is safe and private, and what is the guarantee, so they should be punished, and they must be punished." ”
Zhu Lian wanted to persuade again, but Cai still directly diverted the topic and said, "I don't know what the princess is looking for?" ”
Seeing that Cai still didn't give her a chance to meddle in her own affairs at all, Zhu Lian bit her lower lip slightly, and her momentum was immediately weak.
After pursing his lips for a while, Zhu Lian said: "Your Highness doesn't know, now is a critical period, and you shouldn't be dragged back, but Your Highness's current situation is really difficult......
Among Zhao Ji's thirty-two sons, Zhao Huan is both the eldest son and the son-in-law, and he is also the only son born to the queen.
Because of this illustrious background, since he was born, Zhao Huan has taken a standardized process route, first being crowned king, and then being made the crown prince, honestly ranking in the middle palace, waiting to take over Zhao Ji's class.
However, Zhao Ji doesn't like Zhao Huan's son, and the relationship between them is also very bad, and there are many estrangements and contradictions.
There's only one reason for all this.
In Liu Bang's words back then, it's just not like me!
Translated into the vernacular, it is ---- this kid is not like me, so I don't like it!
Zhao Ji is an emperor with a wide range of hobbies, it can be said that in addition to governing the country, he can do everything, piano, chess, singing, playing, singing, riding horses, drinking tea and eating, and even appreciating antiques, he is very good at it.
Zhao Ji not only likes these things, but also has deep attainments in these fields, which can be called a "master" level.
For example, when painting birds, Zhao Ji observed them meticulously, and even knew that when a peacock went up the steps, he must first step with his left foot ---- this matter, which was talked about in the art academy class until later generations.
Although his father Zhao Ji likes these things, Zhao Huan has no interest in these fields.
Zhao Huan is a very boring person, he likes to hide in the house alone and enjoy the fish in the fish tank, sometimes he looks at it all day, he doesn't care about other things, and no one knows what he is thinking.
It can be seen that for such a boring and boring son, Zhao Ji, who advocates romanticism, definitely doesn't like it.
In addition to this matter, Zhao Huan has many living habits, which is the opposite of his son Zhao Ji.
For example, Zhao Ji likes luxury and is drunk every day. Zhao Huan likes to be quiet, he doesn't like this kind of luxurious banquet---- and even to the point that in addition to the royal banquets, festival activities, and festival banquets that must be attended, Zhao Huan can push the rest of the banquets. Even if he reluctantly participated, Zhao Huan had a face and did not associate with Zhao Ji and others, which made everyone very unhappy. Over time, Zhao Ji didn't let Zhao Huan attend the banquet.
Another example, Zhao Ji likes women, the palace is full of beautiful women, according to incomplete statistics, there are tens of thousands of women in Zhao Ji's palace, so that Zhao Ji is pleasing to the eye every day and has a lot of fun. On the contrary, Zhao Huan is not close to women at all, and he also hates the crowd of beauties who are chaotic---- in history, after Zhao Huan ascended the throne, he immediately issued a holy decree, dismissed more than 6,000 palace maids, and blasted these beauties out of the palace.
For another example, Zhao Ji likes Taoism and wants to live forever every day. On the contrary, Zhao Huan likes Buddhism, has a pure heart every day, and scolds those who are whimsical and want to live forever.
Although Zhao Huan scolded those fake Taoist priests who cheated money, but invisibly, he also offended his own son Zhao Ji, after all, if the Taoist priests are a group of liars, then what kind of person is Zhao Ji, who believes in their theory and proclaims himself the head of the Taoist Emperor?
In this way, inadvertently, the gap between Zhao Huan and Zhao Ji became bigger and deeper.
Eventually, with the help of one person, the father and son broke up completely.
This person is Zhao Ji's favorite son, Zhao Huan's third brother---- Zhao Kai, the king of Yun.
The reason why Zhao Ji likes Zhao Kai is because of the two words---- like me!
Zhao Kai is simply a little "Zhao Ji", Zhao Kai and Zhao Ji have the same interests and hobbies---- what Zhao Ji likes, Zhao Kai likes what, and there is a tendency to be better than blue.
In addition, Zhao Kai is talented, and Zeng and Cai still won the title of "champion" at the same time, which made Zhao Ji like him even more.
Since then, large and small banquets, Zhao Ji and Zhao Kai, the father and son, have been with each other, such as Cai Jing and Wang Hao in the Baohe Palace, only Zhao Kai was present among the princes, Zhao Ji was fortunate to be in Cai Jing's mansion, and only Zhao Kai was still with him among the princes; All kinds of rewards, not to mention; Moreover, Zhao Kai can enter and leave the forbidden place at will without being restricted by regulations.
Zhao Ji was even happy, and also granted Zhao Kai an extremely important official position---- the Imperial City Division knew it.
This appointment is extraordinary.
The Imperial City Division is the department that manages the security of the Imperial City, or the eyes and ears of the emperor, the soldiers of this department are the emperor's personal guards, they are the emperor's safety, and they are also the emperor's last line of defense, which has always been controlled by the emperor himself.
The image is described a little, and the Imperial City Division is almost equivalent to the synthesis of the commander of the Jinyi Guard in the Ming Dynasty and the nine-gate admiral of the Qing Dynasty.
In addition, Zhao Kai lifted the Imperial City Division, and also raised the inner east gate, Chongzheng Hall and other doors, which can be said to have opened a convenient door for him to enter and exit the forbidden middle.
During that time, almost everyone was not optimistic about Zhao Huan, thinking that sooner or later his position as the crown prince would be Zhao Kai's, and Zhao Ji would abolish him as the prince sooner or later.
Fortunately!
Cai Jing stepped down and was replaced by Wang Huang, who was supported by Liang Shicheng.
Under the mediation of Liang Shicheng, Zhao Huan finally reluctantly repelled Zhao Kai, temporarily retained his position as the crown prince, and even had the upper hand in the battle for a time.
It's a pity that the good times didn't last long.
Zhao Huan's position as the crown prince has not been settled for half a year, and Zhao Kai has actually come up with another moth.
Not long ago, Zhao Kai suddenly asked Zhao Ji for a letter of order, asking the army to recover Yanyun.
Recover Yanyun!
This is the ultimate dream of the emperors of the Northern Song Dynasty.
If this thing really makes Zhao Kai do it.
Then Zhao Kai can be said to be a master of civil and martial arts.
At that time, there will be anything to do with Zhao Huan, I'm afraid, this crown prince, he wants to let it, he has to let it, he doesn't want to let it, and he has to give it up.
What's even more fucked up is Zhao Ji's attitude.
Zhao Ji was very pleased that Zhao Kai had the courage to take on this important responsibility, and even almost agreed on the spot.
If he hadn't been stopped by Liang Shicheng at the last moment, this matter might have been done.
It can be seen how much Zhao Ji loves Zhao Kai, making him the biggest contender for Zhao Huan's succession.
It can be said that no one can see through it now, when Zhao Ji chooses the next successor, whether he will choose the justifiable prince Zhao Huan or the much-loved third Zhao Kai.
Not to mention other people, even Cai Yi, who is prophetic, is a little unsure, if the world is peaceful and Zhao Ji is not on the throne, who will this throne belong to in the end.
In this case, not to mention that Cai still has two hearts, even if Cai is still loyal to Zhao Song, it is impossible for him to get involved in this troubled water.
In fact, Cai Zhen's attitude has been guessed by Geng Nanzhong and other members of the prince's party.
can be guessed, but the people of the prince's party can play too few cards, especially good cards, and there is only one card that can suppress Zhao Kai and lead the troops to recover Yanyun.
This card is Cai Ying.
Today, Cai has still become the second choice to lead the army north.
In addition, the Shengjie Army and the Western Army were simply unable to resume their formation and gathering as scheduled.
Everyone would have thought that Cai would still occupy an extremely important position in the matter of going north to recover Yanyun.
In this way, as long as Cai is still willing to stand on Zhao Huan's side, not to mention whether Zhao Kai can lead his troops north as he wishes, even if he can lead his troops north as he wishes, he will not be able to defeat Zhao Huan.
In addition, Cai Yi, who is about to marry Zhu Shen'er, is Zhao Huan's natural ally, and they are not unattainable, or even within reach.
Therefore, Geng Nanzhong and the others first forced Zhu Boliang to invite Cai Ying, and then simply sent Zhu Lian to invite Cai Ying to play the family card.
Zhu Lian said: "...... The prince doesn't want to do anything else, he just wants to help you and Shen'er officiate at the wedding, and do your brother-in-law's heart......"
Zhu Lian had already gone out in person, and Zhu Lian broke in to see that he didn't even want to lose face.
In this case, Cai still wants to easily send Zhu Lian away, which is almost impossible.
After being silent for a while, Cai still turned his head to Zhu Boliang and said, "Father-in-law, please go out for a while, I have a few words to say to the crown princess." ”
Zhu Boliang didn't think that Cai would still do anything to Zhu Lian, but when Cai still had to say something to Zhu Lian, it was important for him to listen.
Therefore, Zhu Boliang didn't think much about it, so he said to Zhu Lian: "The minister retired first." ”
After speaking, Zhu Boliang withdrew.
Cai still instructed the envoys in the room, "You also go down first." ”
The envoys listened to the words and immediately retreated with Zhu Boliang.
When there was no third person in the room, Cai still looked at Zhu Lian......
