Chang'an, a place name that has appeared repeatedly in the long history. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

These two words, taken apart to solve, are the meaning of long-term peace and stability.

Although this is a good meaning, the world is unpredictable.

The major events in the world must be divided for a long time, and they must be divided for a long time.

The city of Chang'an, in this unpredictable world, has witnessed the rise and fall of generations of dynasties, and also witnessed the joys and sorrows of countless people.

On this day, under the continuous autumn rain, a convoy came from the south and drove into this magnificent capital of the Great Zhou Kingdom.

The convoy proceeded, entered the Li Fang of Chang'an, and finally stopped in front of a mansion.

On the plaque of this mansion, the word 'Cui Mansion' is written, announcing the origin of the owner here.

Most of the people who got off this carriage were women, and it was obvious that they were the family members of the owner of the Cui Mansion.

"Lady, it's here."

A maid stood beside the magnificent carriage and called out to the carriage.

Then, the curtain was lifted, and a little lady appeared from the carriage.

She is not someone else, it is Cui Lingwei who left Gusu that day.

Just as she said to Wei Jue that night, now she has come to Chang'an with her family and started a new life.

————————

East Palace, another familiar place name.

The palace is named after the fact that it is located east of the Royal Palace.

This is the residence of the crown prince, from here, there have been many kings who reigned over the world, but more often than not, passers-by with unpaid ambitions.

On this day, the autumn rain dripped down the eaves of the East Palace, and an official in court clothes was hurrying under the porch.

Outside the gate of the East Palace, among the several guards with halberds, a eunuch stood there.

The man looked left and right, frowning, as if in a hurry.

At this time, seeing that the official had arrived, the eunuch hurriedly greeted him: "Mr. Yuan, you are here, Your Highness has asked a few times." ”

This official is the Zhan Shi of the Prince's Mansion - Yuan An, this person is Taiping, from the Yuan family of Runan, and now lives in the third product, the post of the prince Zhan Shi.

"Youlao, Grandpa Li has been waiting for a long time." Yuan An politely arched his hand and said, "Please ask Gonggong Li to lead the way, and I will go to see His Highness." ”

This eunuch is the close attendant of the current prince, surnamed Li, and his name is Guotai.

After hearing this, Li Guotai also nodded politely and said, "Mr. Zhang is polite, you can come with me." ”

The two of them entered the prince's east palace, and went all the way to a meeting room in the palace.

In the study, the conversation continued, and the two of them heard it outside.

The eunuch Li Guotai then arrived at the door and said, "Your Highness, Mr. Yuan has arrived." ”

As soon as he said this, the conversation in the study was cut off.

Then, a deep male voice came from inside: "Let Mr. Yuan come in." ”

"Yes."

After Li Guotai received the order, he said to Yuan An: "Mr. Yuan, please inside." ”

Yuan An nodded, and then strode in, while Li Guotai stayed outside the door.

As soon as Yuan An entered the study, he saw a person standing in the middle of the study. This person has a short beard, a broad face, and a pale yellow gold dragon robe, which is the current prince - Chai Yu.

And on the side of the guest, there was also a person standing.

This is a middle-aged man, dressed in a purple Dake court robe and a gold and jade belt, obviously a central official.

"Your Highness." After Yuan An saw Chai Yu first, he bowed his hand to the person next to him, "Brother Zhengdao." ”

The right way in his mouth is the left concubine of the Taigong - Zhang Zeduan.

Zhang Zeduan is from the Zhang family in Hedong, and the word is right.

In this prince's mansion, Zhang and Yuan are above them, although there are still six divisions of the prince, but those official positions are all fictitious, and most of them are concurrently held by important ministers in the court.

These people are all busy people for many years, and it is difficult to take care of the affairs in the prince's mansion, so many things in the prince's mansion are handled by Zhang and Yuan, and they are also the confidants of the prince Chai Yu.

Chai Yu, the prince of Yuan An, has always been very polite. Seeing him coming, Chai Yu pointed to the guest seat on the side and said, "Mr. Yuan, sit down." ”

But after saying that, he coughed a few times.

Seeing this situation, Yuan An hurriedly spoke: "Isn't Your Highness's illness still healed? ”

"It's an old problem, and it can't get better." Prince Chai Yu coughed and sat down, and said in a dejected tone, "It's like this when it's cold, and I'm used to it." ”

Today's emperor is the world immediately, and the root of Chai Yu's illness fell in the days of the golden iron horse. Because of the negligence at that time, now in autumn and winter, Chai Yu will have lung disease, and after many years, no matter how he treats, he can't be cured.

Chai Yu is only twenty-five years old, but because of this disease, he looks much older than ordinary people.

People have good and bad luck, and this matter is difficult to complete.

While he enjoys supreme wealth, he is also suffering from pain that others cannot imagine.

At this time, someone from the palace heard his cough and hurriedly walked in.

After a while, under the service of the palace people, the coughing finally stopped.

Chai Yu waved his hand and sent these palace people away again.

Seeing that Yuan and Zhang were still standing, he said again: "Two gentlemen, sit down." ”

"Thank you, Your Highness, give me a seat."

After the two thanked them, they sat down.

After that, Yuan An asked, "Your Highness, why are you recruiting ministers?" ”

When Zhang Zeduan heard this, he said: "Brother Taiping, Cui Huan entered Beijing today, do you know?" ”

"I have also heard about it below, and I know that he is going to enter Beijing in the near future, but I didn't expect it to be today." Yuan An nodded and said, "Cui Xiao let his son enter Beijing at this time, presumably because he is determined to be in the middle book." ”

Cui Huan in the mouth of the two is the second son of Cui Xiao, the governor of Yangzhou.

After Yuan An finished speaking, he asked Chai Yu again: "Your Highness, does Cui Xiao have a letter to send?" ”

Chai Yu didn't answer, just shook his head.

"It shouldn't be." Yuan An thought for a while and said, "Didn't Xiao Ziyu help him?" ”

"Not really." Zhang Zeduan then said, "The Cui family is riding on the wall and watching. ”

Cui Xiao, as a foreign official, must seek help if he seeks to enter the center.

And Cui Huan entered Beijing at this time to take care of this matter for his father, which was clear to the three people present.

Yuan An saw Chai Yu shaking his head, so he didn't say anything more, lowered his head and pondered.

Now the Great Zhou Dynasty, one is the emperor, the other is the prince, and the third is Chai Shuo, the king of Jin.

This Chai Shuo is the half-brother of the crown prince Chai Yu, whose mother Wei is today's noble concubine, who is very favored by the emperor, and he was awarded the title of prince because of his mother's wealth. Because of the prince's weak body, the world often thinks that his life is short, and because today's son is not right, this has attracted other princes to take the heir, and this Chai Shuo is one of them.

And he himself is also a brave warrior, and he is more popular than the crown prince. Now that the Rongdi people are attacking Hebei, the Great Zhou army that went to resist is led by the king of Jin.

The Great Zhou Dynasty implemented a system of three provinces and six ministries, with Zhongshu Province, Menxia Province and Shangshu Province as the center of the imperial court, and the governors of the three provinces were all ministers of state. Each edict of the imperial court was decided by the Zhongshu Province, reviewed by the Menxia Province, approved by the emperor, and then submitted to the Shangshu Province for execution. Among the three provinces, the power of Zhongshu Province is particularly important, and Zhongshu Ling, as the governor of Zhongshu Province, is the person with the most authority among these ministers. Cui Xiao wants to enter the Zhongshu, if there is no emperor's approval, the recommendation of the prince and the king of Jin, it is absolutely impossible.
