Chapter 308: Pre-ordained Prince
"Perhaps, I really misunderstood the queen!" Thinking of this, Zhang Lingyang felt a little regret in his heart.
For Zhang Lingyang, his feelings for Queen Wang are very different from those of other concubines. This is not only because Queen Wang is her wife, but more importantly, Queen Wang can be regarded as Zhang Lingyang's life-saving benefactor.
On the eve of the Jiangnan gentry's rebellion, it was Queen Wang who looked for an antidote and cured the poison of Empress Dowager Xu. If it weren't for this, Zhang Lingyang would have gone to see Hades a long time ago.
In fact, if Zhang Lingyang really died at that time, Zhao Hao, the eldest prince who was only one year old at the time, would have become the most legitimate heir of Da Zhou.
Although Zhao Hao was still young at that time, there were more young emperors in history. If Zhao Hao successfully ascended the throne at that time, it would not be impossible for Queen Wang, as Zhao Hao's mother, to listen to the government.
Although it is said that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, it is the testament of Emperor Taizu of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but when is this scored.
When the emperor was young, it was always better for the empress dowager to interfere in government affairs than for other royal regents.
So from this aspect, for Queen Wang, Zhang Lingyang is grateful in his heart.
But then again, 'the most ruthless emperor's family' is not an empty phrase, for the sake of the throne, fathers, sons, brothers cannibalism is not uncommon in history.
Although Zhang Lingyang can't be so ruthless, his affection for Queen Wang is not as deep as he imagined. In the entire royal family, no one dared to show affection to others. Even if that person is his own parents and children, he will have some reservations about his affection, let alone his wife.
Zhang Lingyang felt that he had fallen into the trap of some people, so he misunderstood Queen Wang, but in the end, he was the king of a country, and it was not good to apologize to Queen Wang so quickly.
Otherwise, do you still want the face of the Son of Heaven?
For a while, there was silence in the Heart Nourishing Palace, and only the suppressed crying in the throat of the Queen Wang came out.
But fortunately, at this time, Xiaofuzi rushed back to the Heart Cultivation Hall in time, and only then did he relieve Zhang Lingyang's siege.
"Can you send the second prince to the noble concubine?" Seeing Xiaofuzi enter the hall, Zhang Lingyang raised his head and asked.
"Long live the lord, rest assured, the slave has sent the second prince back to the concubine's dormitory safely." Xiaofuzi replied.
"That's good!" Zhang Lingyang nodded noncommittally, then looked at Queen Wang and asked, "Queen, did you arrange Hao'er's side properly when you came?" ”
"This ......" Queen Fang Cai Wang was in a hurry to chase Zhang Lingyang to explain the matter clearly, and for a while she forgot to order someone to send Zhao Hao back to Changchun Palace.
But think about it, Zhao Hao's grandmother and several palace maids and eunuchs who served were in Baohe Hall at that time, so there shouldn't be any big problem, so I was just anxious for a few seconds, and after thinking about it for a while, I no longer worried.
"Forget it, let's go and see if Hao'er is asleep!" Zhang Lingyang got up from the bed, put on his shoes under the service of Xiaofuzi, and took Queen Wang's hand and walked out of the Heart Cultivation Palace.
In fact, this is completely Zhang Lingyang looking for himself to go down the stairs.
After realizing that he might have misunderstood Queen Wang, for the sake of his own face, Zhang Lingyang couldn't open his mouth to apologize to Queen Wang, so he used this to remind Queen Wang: I know that I wronged you tonight, even if this matter is over, you don't have to be sad anymore.
The people of the harem, which one doesn't have a seven-trick exquisite heart? As soon as Zhang Lingyang said this, Queen Wang understood what Zhang Lingyang meant.
wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, and didn't struggle, let Zhang Lingyang take his hand, and then got up and walked out of the Heart Cultivation Hall together.
When Zhang Lingyang and Queen Wang came to Changchun Palace, Zhao Hao had already fallen asleep under the service of palace maids and eunuchs. Zhang Lingyang took Queen Wang to the main hall, baked the stove, and said some private words to keep the New Year together.
Queen Wang was also smiling, as if what had happened before had already disappeared.
Before I knew it, it was already time for me to hear a burst of firecrackers outside.
"Happy New Year!" Zhang Lingyang said to Queen Wang with a smile, and without waiting for Queen Wang to react, he got up and took Queen Wang's hand and walked out of Changchun Palace.
As soon as he stepped out of the palace gate of Changchun Palace, Zhang Lingyang saw a few fireworks flashing in the sky not far away, which was very beautiful.
For a while, Queen Wang was stunned, and unconsciously snuggled into Zhang Lingyang's arms, looking at the fireworks flashing in the air from time to time, her eyes were full of joy.
"Your Majesty, Happy New Year!" Queen Wang muttered softly.
Although Queen Wang's voice was very soft, Zhang Lingyang still heard it.
Snuggling Queen Wang tightly in his arms, Zhang Lingyang's eyes stared at the fireworks in the air without blinking. However, he said: "Queen, I plan to make Hao'er the crown prince after the New Year, what do you think?" ”
"What?" Queen Wang was taken aback, although she was very excited, she still looked up at Zhang Lingyang's face in surprise and asked, "Your Majesty, Hao'er is only three years old this year, is it a little early to make him the crown prince at this time?" ”
"It's not too early to be surprised!" Zhang Lingyang said.
In his heart, Zhang Lingyang said: "If you are no longer sure about the choice of the prince, I am afraid that my harem will never have peace in the future." ”
Zhang Lingyang can be regarded as having figured it out, the later he establishes the crown prince, the more hope he gives to those ambitious concubines and relatives.
If Zhao Hao is appointed as the crown prince early, maybe he can dispel some of his thoughts.
After all, human ambition swells. If Zhang Lingyang doesn't give those ambitious people a chance to expand their ambitions, then their ambitions will never be able to swell.
Although there is a lot of power in the harem now, the concubines have a lot of power in the court, and at this time, Zhao Hao is the crown prince, and it is very likely that he will be in the whirlpool of political struggle.
But the power of those relatives and concubines has not yet been completely formed, and if Zhao Hao is appointed as the prince now, it can be regarded as a remedy, and it is not too late.
Zhang Lingyang can also be regarded as having figured it out, at this time, if he finds a few better teachers for Zhao Hao to assist, and then has his own support behind him, other princes want to threaten Zhao Hao's crown prince, but I am afraid that it will not be so easy.
As for the candidate for Teacher Zhao Hao, Zhang Lingyang has already thought about it.
Sun Ding'an, the Duke of Ningguo, who was relegated back to his hometown before, and Zhang Zhiyuan, the former head of the cabinet, are very good candidates.
Not to mention that one article and one martial arts complement each other, both of them are old ministers, and their protégés and former officials are all over the world, with their assistance, after Zhao Hao becomes an adult, his power will not be weak.
Of course, Zhang Lingyang did not arrange more than two teachers for Zhao Hao, and also planned to select several experts and scholars from Europe from the Royal Academy to teach Zhao Hao some geographical and scientific knowledge.
As a prince, Zhao Hao naturally doesn't have to work hard in science, but it is also necessary to understand a little bit of the necessary basic knowledge of science......
