The city protector cleaned up the people who participated in the rebellion in this palace, and once again mastered the defense of the capital, and at the same time, the original surrendered Imperial Forest Army returned to its original post, and Yu Sicheng quickly mobilized personnel, filled the original gap, and once again established the palace defense. The Xiaocai battalion continued to defend the capital, and the army of King Qin, who arrived immediately, if they obeyed the holy order and returned immediately, everything would be peaceful, and if they also had some ambitions, they needed to be quickly repulsed.

The first emperor died, and the new emperor succeeded him.

Naturally, some people doubted the legitimacy of the succession of the five princes, and severely reprimanded the five princes for colluding with outsiders to murder their fathers, and then Zhao Li took out the holy decree of the first emperor himself, and no one dared to question whether he should inherit the throne, and then the civil officials headed by Prime Minister Bai and the military generals led by Jiang Shuai all supported the first emperor's accession to the throne, and the original discordant voice was completely drowned out, and Zhao Li successfully ascended the throne, and he was only thirteen years old.

After he ascended the throne, he immediately named his biological mother Concubine De as the queen mother, and Concubine Qi and Concubine Yun as concubines, which can be regarded as repaying the people who have nurtured him. The rewards and punishments were clear, and Zhao Li, with his own tough or gentle strategy, with the support of the civil officials of Prime Minister Bai Cheng and others, the military attachés of Jiang Shuai and others, and the royal clan relatives such as the King of Chu, quickly stabilized the situation and stabilized the hearts of the people in Beijing, and did not cause greater turmoil.

He listened to Emperor Zhou's dying words and continued to rely on Prime Minister Bai, and at the same time asked the King of Chu and the King of Lao Jin, who had never participated in government affairs, to help deal with the current mess together. The top priority is to resolve the conflict with the Chen State, although the new emperor died, but the military affairs of the Great Zhou are already the strongest of the strong, naturally they will not be afraid of war, but now the internal affairs are not stable, and it is not a wise move to fight.

And Chen Guo had no intention of fighting to increase casualties, and Da Zhou's intentions spread out, and he also received positive feedback from the other party. The guards stationed outside also sent a tribute to congratulate the new monarch on his ascension to the throne, and he sat firmly on the throne.

It's just that in Zhao Li's heart, there is still some worry.

Being able to ascend to this throne can be regarded as planned by Jiang Xiaoyu. Prime Minister Bai Cheng's loyalty is so loyal that there is no doubt about it, but the remaining commander of the city protector is her person, Zhao Qian and Zhao Qu have a great relationship with her, Jiang Shuai and Zhao Ling have a close relationship, and the king of Chu and the old king of Jin needless to say, if they have a heart, they will be completely reduced to a puppet! This is what he was worried about before his father's death, and it was also something he was worried about, even if Jiang Xiaoyu and they repeatedly emphasized that they had no interest in power, but people would change, this Da Zhou was at their fingertips, would they be willing to let go?

Although Zhao Li ascended the throne, the first emperor never mourned, and the entire palace was full of Su Min.

Concubine De had already moved to live in Fengxi Palace, and after Zhao Li finished the morning court, she came to greet her, and Concubine Qi and Concubine Yun were also talking in the house.

"The sons and daughters greet the queen mother, and the two queen mothers say goodbye!" Zhao Li saluted respectfully, although the bright yellow dragon robe was covered with a white filial piety robe, he could still faintly see the kingly aura of the world on this child.

"Your Majesty doesn't need to be polite!" The Queen Mother said that she looked at her son, who was carrying such a burden at a young age, and she didn't know whether to be happy or worried. Because of the young age of the fifth prince, and her friendship with Concubine Qi, she has never expected the throne, and she has always felt that this throne should be the second prince's person, where she thought that her son would become the emperor today!

She glanced at Concubine Qi and sighed, feeling a little sorry in her heart, her son became the emperor, but her son was gone.

"Your Majesty is the first time to ascend to the great treasure, you must be tired!" Concubine Qi asked with concern, "Because you are young, Your Majesty has never taught you to handle government affairs, I don't know if you may be able to deal with it now?" ”

"It's a little difficult!" Zhao Li said, "But Prime Minister Bai and the King of Chu, as well as the ministers of the Central Office, they are all helping me, and I will also work hard to do everything myself, get familiar with it as soon as possible, and become a qualified emperor!" ”

"In the past, when His Majesty reviewed the folds, I always liked to say that those ministers hid their intentions in themselves, and if they were not careful, they would be deceived and used!" Concubine Qi said, "When you watch the twists and turns, you should also say every word to understand the deep meaning inside!" ”

"Yes, I remember!" Zhao Li said humbly.

"Yesterday, Xiaoyu entered the palace to accompany me and chatted for a while!" Concubine Qi said again.

"Oh?" Zhao Li's smile was peaceful, but there was a bit of light in his eyes, "I don't know what Sister Xiaoyu said to the concubine when she entered the palace?" ”

"Your Majesty, how much did you remember the words of the first emperor before his death?" Qi Guifei asked rhetorically.

"This ...... My father asked me to reuse Prime Minister Bai and Jiang Shuai, and I followed! Zhao Li said.

"The first emperor also asked you to kill Jiang Xiaoyu, I also heard this, I don't know if Your Majesty can remember it?" Concubine Qi asked.

"Although it is my father's order, it's just that Sister Xiaoyu is kind to me, and I can't do this!" Zhao Li said, "What's more, now, Yu Sicheng is Sister Xiaoyu's person, Jiang Shuai is Brother Zhao Ling's master, Zhao Qian and Zhao Qu have a great relationship with Sister Xiaoyu, and the emperor of Chen State is her senior brother, and I don't have the ability to kill her!" ”

"Your Majesty's second half of the sentence is the most important!" Concubine Qi said lightly, "Your Majesty doesn't want to kill her, you can't kill her!" ”

"It's no wonder that I have this thought, after all, what I said is indeed what I am worried about!" Zhao Li said.

"Your Majesty doesn't have to worry about that!" Concubine Qi said, "Yesterday, Xiaoyu entered the palace to talk to me about these things, just these two days, before the funeral of the first emperor, she and Zhao Ling will leave the capital and leave the Great Zhou!" The things you are worried about will not happen, Zhao Qian has long had the idea of retreating, but he will still help you contain Zhao Qu in the dark, Zhao Qu is a business wizard, and he must be reused, and Yu Sicheng will be the commander of Yu, after Xiaoyu leaves, after explaining the defense of the capital, he will also leave, as for Jiang Shuai, there is no need to worry about his loyalty at all, and if you can't even rest assured that the King of Chu and the King of Old Jin, there is no other way! ”

"Sister Xiaoyu really plans to leave the capital?" Zhao Li asked in disbelief.

"Not everything you think is what you think you are!" Concubine Qi said, "What you like is not what everyone else likes!" I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave! ”

Concubine Qi got up to leave, and Concubine Yun followed her to say goodbye.

Zhao Li sat down and said with a smile: "Great, Sister Xiaoyu is finally leaving!" ”

"Is there anything to be happy about? Your Majesty, you have changed, and you have become less like the Ping'er of the mourning family! The Queen Mother said lightly.

"Why did the Queen Mother say this?"

"Your Majesty is now the emperor, but as your mother, I can still teach you a lesson, Your Majesty, don't forget your original intention!" The Queen Mother said, "Why did your father and the emperor betray their relatives in the end? Your Majesty still has to learn to trust! ”

"Yes, Erchen knows that he is wrong!" Zhao Li lowered his eyes and said.

Jiangfu.

"Did the eldest lady really decide to leave the capital?" The third aunt asked, "Why don't you stay longer?" ”

"Stay a few more days, I'm afraid that our Emperor Majesty will be suspicious!" Jiang Xiaoyu smiled bitterly.

The third aunt sighed slightly and said, "The so-called high place is unbearable, is it that everyone who ascends to a high position will become suspicious?" ”

"I just have a clear conscience!" Jiang Xiaoyu said, "It's just that the Jiang family is going to entrust you again, although my father has not been degraded, I am afraid that he will tremble in the future, and he is cold by nature, I am afraid that he will not be reliable, and Haoran is still young, although he is commensurate with His Majesty as a brother, in the end he is still a child, you also have to persuade him well, the king is the king, the minister is the minister, you have to take care of the proportions!" ”

"Don't worry, I'll tell him about it!" The third aunt said.

"There are also four aunts, mothers and daughters, with their current appearance, I'm afraid that maybe you will take care of them!" Jiang Xiaoyu said, "Although my mother's death has nothing to do with the Bai family's affairs and the fourth aunt, I don't want to indulge in hatred anymore, and other people will die!" ”

Jiang Huiran went crazy, and when she learned in Zhuangzi that Jiang Xiaoyu had actually become so powerful, she went crazy. The fourth aunt also became silent because of this, but the third aunt still brought them back with them and gave them a place to stay.

"And then there's the leisurely thing!" Jiang Xiaoyu said, "Although she guards her grandmother's tomb in her hometown, after three years of filial piety, she still has to choose a marriage for her!" ”

"Don't worry, I'll do all these things!" The third aunt said.

"It's not too early!" Jiang Xiaoyu got up and said, "It's time for me to go back to the Chu Palace!" ”

"When you decide when to leave, bring me a message, and I'll send you!" The third aunt said.

"Good!"

After talking to the third aunt for a while, Jiang Xiaoyu went back to the Chu Palace, and listened to the bamboo garden, Zhao Ling and Zhao Qu were playing against each other.

"It's still not the opponent of the big brother!" Zhao Qu dropped the chess pieces and smiled, "I always thought I was very powerful now, but I didn't expect to lose you, I will come back tomorrow, before you leave the capital, I must win you once!" ”

"When I was your age, I wasn't your match at all!" Zhao Ling said, "If you play chess and are eager to win, you will become greedy, and if you are greedy to win, you will reveal too many flaws!" You are still young, and since you joined the WTO, it has basically been smooth sailing, and you have never suffered setbacks, but if you rein in it, you may achieve better results! ”

"Thank you, big brother, Zhao Qu has been taught!" Zhao Qu smiled slightly, "Is it really necessary to leave the capital?" Big brother, are you really not ambitious at all? ”
