Chapter 538: The noble concubine is promoted

"How's the Queen?"

"Back to the Long Live Lord, Imperial Physician Li only said that the queen's condition needs to be recuperated, and the others didn't say much!"

That's right, after selecting the crown princess and side concubine for the crown prince, the queen fell ill again, and this illness was more than a month.

For more than a month, the queen never stepped out of the palace.

"In that case...... Zhang Lingyang's expression struggled a little, and finally made up his mind, "Spread the word that the queen is unwell, and instruct the noble concubine Gao to handle the affairs of the six palaces on her behalf, and be promoted to the imperial concubine, and hold a canonization ceremony in three days!" ”

“…… The minion is going to preach the decree! Xiaofuzi was stunned for a moment, came back to his senses and hurriedly went to the harem to pass the decree.

After all, the relationship between Zhang Lingyang and Queen Wang is getting weaker and weaker!

faded to the point that Zhang Lingyang couldn't stand Queen Wang's various tricks to death.

Now, the Great Zhou is stepping up preparations for war in an attempt to completely defeat the European powers.

But at this time, there were constantly various affairs in the harem that disturbed Zhang Lingyang, so that he could not think quietly.

After all, Queen Wang was sick and could not manage the affairs of the harem, so many harem affairs were naturally reported to Zhang Lingyang.

This upset Zhang Lingyang.

Now, Zhang Lingyang can no longer bear this situation, and finally makes up his mind.

Just yesterday, the envoys of Britain, France and other European powers in the Great Zhou Dynasty jointly submitted an official letter to Zhang Lingyang, saying that they were under domestic order.

If it is one or two, Zhang Lingyang doesn't think there is anything to resign with so many envoys at once, and Zhang Lingyang can't smell the reason behind it, then he will really become a fool.

There is only one reason, that is, the European powers are ready to take action against the Great Zhou, so they can't wait to transfer back their envoys.

At this time, how dare Zhang Lingyang let the harem chores disturb him?

The noble concubine fisherman profited, not only promoted to the position, but also had the power to associate the six palaces.

For a while, the concubine who received the news almost broke through the door of the noble concubine's bedroom.

If you follow the previous character of the noble concubine, I am afraid that I will be arrogant long ago.

The noble concubine is no longer the noble concubine of the past.

Today's noble concubine is very decent, and in the face of this big gift that suddenly fell on her head, the noble concubine did not show excessive excitement.

After the canonization ceremony, the noble concubine officially handled the affairs of the six palaces, but the queen who lived in her own palace was angry.

But there is nothing Queen Wang can do about this, she has lost Zhang Lingyang's heart, and her illness is still reported by Doctor Li.

Therefore, Queen Wang could only be secretly annoyed in the deep palace by herself.

"Mother, you don't have to worry too much!" The palace maid persuaded, "Even if the noble concubine is promoted to the imperial concubine, won't she still be inferior to you according to her position?"

Besides, we still have the prince!

As long as you endure it for another two years, and when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince gets married, won't your status come back? ”

"Yes, there is still a prince in this palace!" After being reminded by the palace maid, the queen woke up and realized that she still had the prince to rely on.

As long as the crown prince does not fall, no one can do anything about himself.

Moreover, after the wedding, the prince's position will be more stable, and even the emperor will not dare to say anything about the prince easily.

Queen Wang forgot that from beginning to end, the abolition of the position of Prince Zhao Hao was just a matter of Zhang Lingyang's words.

It is true that Zhao Hao married the eldest granddaughter of the old man of Ning Guo, but Queen Wang did not think that compared with a daughter, it seems that the reputation of the family is more important.

For more than 200 years since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the reason why Ning Guofu has been prosperous for a long time and why it has become the first powerful family of the Great Zhou Dynasty is because the Ning Guofu family has been loyal to the country for generations and has been engraved into the family bloodline?

If you leave aside this concept that they have been together for generations, can Ning Guofu still prosper forever and become the first powerful family in the Great Zhou?

I'm afraid I can't!

Moreover, in fact, the power of Ning Guofu is not as great as Queen Wang imagined.

Otherwise, Zhang Lingyang would go to the army during the New Year's holidays, go to the martyrs' homes to offer condolences, take care of the martyrs' orphans, open the Royal Military Academy, and now the Beibishan Cemetery, which is now being built, wouldn't all this hard work be in vain?

Ning Guofu's influence in the army is indeed great, but it is only the influence among middle and high-level generals, as for the grassroots level, who knows who Ning Guogong is.

In this era of underdeveloped information, many people don't even know who the magistrate of their county is, and the same is true in the military.

Besides, even if they knew Ning Guogong and knew the contributions of Ning Guogong to the Great Zhou Dynasty in the past dynasties, once Ning Guogong stood on the opposite side of the Son of Heaven, what would the soldiers think?

What will the people of the world think?

Therefore, all the plans of Queen Wang can't match Zhang Lingyang's golden words after all.

On the other side, after the noble concubine dealt with the concubines who came to congratulate, she felt sore.

Reclining on the bed, the noble concubine squinted her eyes and asked, "Have all the gifts sent by the palaces been registered?" ”

"The imperial concubine can rest assured, all the registrations have been completed!" As she spoke, the palace maid who replied whispered to the noble concubine: "Congratulations to Niangniang on her promotion to the position of the imperial concubine, and she is one step away from the position of the queen." ”

"Don't talk nonsense!" Concubine Gao suddenly opened her eyes, looked at the palace maid's eyes and said: "The position of the queen mother is as stable as Mount Tai, if you talk nonsense, be careful of your skin." ”

"But now everyone in the palace knows that the queen has fallen out of favor, and it is only a matter of time before she is deposed.

And once the queen is deposed, isn't it the most likely that you will be on the throne! ”

"This palace doesn't dare to have such extravagant hopes!" Concubine Gao's mind was very clear, "This palace only hopes that after the second prince becomes an adult, this palace will go to the fiefdom with him." ”

Concubine Gao knew very well that once the queen was deposed, whoever became the queen next would become the target of public criticism.

The relationship between the queen and the emperor, no one in the harem knows, if even the queen can be abolished, then the rest of the concubines will be on the throne, but I am afraid that they will not be able to sit steadily for a few years.

The main thing is that once you ascend to the throne of the queen, you will inevitably face all kinds of knowable and unknowable intrigues every day in the future.

There are only a thousand days to be a thief, and there is no thousand days to prevent thieves, this truth, the noble concubine still understands.

In the face of all kinds of conspiracies and tricks, can you guard against one or two, ten hundred, but can you guard against all of them?

But do you want to say that the noble concubine does not covet the position of queen?

This is not nonsense, which concubine in the harem doesn't want to be a queen?

Concubine Gao is naturally no exception.

But the noble concubine is more afraid, afraid of endless conspiracies, afraid that the second prince will be framed, and afraid that the emperor may compare herself with the queen.

So the pros and cons are safer.

The main one is because now the second prince has been canonized as the lord of Borneo.

Compared with the Great Zhou, Borneo is a very large place, although it is barren.

Rather than having his son compete for the position of the ethereal prince, and in the end, there is a high chance that he will end up in a different place, the Lord of Borneo seems to be a good choice.

In the future, he took the second prince to Borneo, where his identity was not equivalent to the queen mother, and the second prince was not equivalent to the monarch.

Why do you have to spend that effort to compete for the position of queen and prince......
