The title of Empress Xue's mother's father was originally a loyal marquis, but unfortunately the family was unfortunate and had a bad son. Empress Xue's younger brother insisted that he was the uncle of the country, and he did many evils, and was finally punished by the law, and even with the title of Xue's father, he was demoted to a loyal uncle by the emperor.

Empress Xue did not have children, and she didn't want to risk offending the imperial concubine Jia Yuanchun, the Jia family, and Han Fei, the prince of Zhongguo, and prevented Jia Yuanchun from being honored as the queen mother, so she wanted to exchange a little benefit. Empress Xue's maiden family was not originally a big family, and her father's title was demoted, which greatly weakened the power of the Xue family.

Han Fei understood Empress Xue's intentions and immediately agreed to restore Xue's father's marquis, which brought the battle for the title of Queen Mother to a successful end. It is said that such a big matter as the feudal marquis should be discussed by the auxiliary minister before it can be decided, but this is a happy situation, and no one will oppose it if they have a brain. A marquis who has no real power is a scum to those who hold the military and political power of Dahua.

In fact, according to normal ethics, although the crown prince is not born to the queen, he should also be under the name of the queen, the queen is the wife of the first emperor, and the other concubines can only be regarded as concubines. Therefore, the Queen Mother can only be Queen Xue alone, and the imperial concubine can be honored as the imperial concubine.

The problem is that the background behind the imperial concubine Jia Yuanchun is too strong, the Jia family can be ignored, who would dare to offend Han Fei, the loyal prince? The prince who really holds the real power, the auxiliary minister appointed by the first emperor, holds the sword of the Son of Heaven, has the right to transfer troops at a critical time, and has a close relationship with the other three auxiliary ministers, saying that he is the first person in the dynasty, and he does not dare to doubt it.

The most important thing is that the first emperor roared on his deathbed, Han Fei can replace the emperor to kill the treacherous evil. How to define this "treacherous evil", it is not up to Han Fei to have the final say, who dares to be the "treacherous evil" under his sword?

When the cabinet first discussed, it was intended to add the imperial concubine Jia Yuanchun as the queen mother, but considering the discussion of all parties, they kicked the ball to Du Yun, and Du Yun kicked it to Han Fei. Han Fei is not a fool, so he naturally will not make his own decisions, so he pushed it to Queen Xue.

After obtaining a satisfactory result from all parties, the auxiliary minister immediately named Empress Xue and the imperial concubine Jia Yuanchun as the Empress Dowager of the East Palace and the Empress Dowager of the West Palace in the name of the little emperor, and added the title of Concubine to the concubine of the former emperor who gave birth to a princess.

As the saying goes, once the son of heaven is a courtier, after the new emperor succeeds to the throne, the concubines of the first emperor will naturally move out of their original residence. According to the ancestral system, the Empress Dowager of the East Palace moved to Cining Palace, and the Empress Dowager of the West Palace continued to live in the previous dormitory because she wanted to raise the little emperor, and was renamed Ci'an Palace. Of course, these are all in the new emperor's enthronement ceremony, and the first emperor will gradually move after he enters the earth.

Han Fei spent most of his time in the palace reviewing the folds, the first emperor did not take care of the government for more than a month, and there were too many backlogs of twists and turns, ordinary things, the four auxiliary ministers could call the shots, and when it came to major military issues, the four auxiliary ministers had to discuss and come to a conclusion, and then report to the queen mother of the two palaces for decision. Usually Han Fei is the one who goes to report to the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces, but the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces is a person who has no experience in handling political affairs, and in the end it is decided by Han Fei's opinion, and the Queen Mother of the Two Palaces has become the Queen Mother with a seal.

Tomorrow is the day of the little emperor's enthronement ceremony, and Han Fei went back to his house early today to rest in order to maintain his vigorous energy and deal with possible accidents.

"Grandpa, the old lady is here!"

Jia Zheng shouldn't be on duty at this time, why did he rush over? Han Fei didn't know what his father was doing, so he asked his subordinates to lead Jia Zheng to the study, changed into regular clothes, and went to meet again.

"Father, are you in a hurry at this time?"

Jia Zheng coughed and said, "Fei'er, my father heard that you want to restore the father of the Empress Dowager of the East Palace, the Marquis?" ”

"Not bad!" Although this matter has not yet been officially decreed, with his father's current power, it is not surprising that someone has conspired with him and revealed it to him in advance. Han Fei glanced at Jia Zheng and said lightly: "This can be said to be an exchange bargaining chip, my sister can be respected as the Queen Mother of the West Palace without dispute, and she always has to pay a little price." ”

"For the Father understands this, ahem...... Fei'er, as the maiden family of the Empress Dowager of the West Palace, should the title of the first emperor be ......cut by the first emperor?"

"What should it be? Restore the Duke of Rong Guo and the Duke of Ningguo? Father, is this what you mean or what the principals of the Jia family mean? Han Fei's anger surged, and he said in a deep voice: "What do the Jia family want to do?" If you want to be crowned a prince today, do you still want to be crowned a king tomorrow? Now that my sister is the queen mother of the West Palace, and the crown prince is about to ascend the throne as the emperor, I also hold the power of the court, isn't the Jia family glorious enough? ”

Jia Zheng said embarrassedly: "Everyone doesn't have to be crowned the Duke of the Kingdom, but they just feel that the title of the Duke of the Kingdom was obtained by the ancestors, and now that they have lost it, they can't live with the ancestors and the ancestors!" ”

"Father, since the descendants of the Jia family feel ashamed of their ancestors, they should work hard, as long as the descendants are angry, the title of the prince is still the Jia family after all, now the new emperor is young, the undercurrent of forces is surging, the status of the sister and the emperor is not stable, and the Jia family is still fighting for the title at this time, isn't it causing chaos for them?"

Jia Zheng was taken aback and said hurriedly: "Fei'er, the crown prince is the only son of the first emperor, and the succession is an undisputed matter, is there anyone else who has other intentions?" ”

Han Fei sighed secretly, no wonder the Jia family would decline, Jia Zheng, as a relatively outstanding person in the Jia family, didn't see this reason clearly. "Father, when the emperor died, the kings of all parts of the country kept to themselves, and now that the first emperor has died, they have proposed to go to Beijing to worship, isn't it strange? It's not because they saw that the emperor was young that they became ambitious. Besides, is the capital too peaceful? If the kings don't have reinforcements, do they dare to move? The emperor does not have an adult pro-government, and the struggle for imperial power will not stop! ”

"Fei'er, you must protect the Queen Mother of the West Palace and the emperor!"

"Father, don't worry, if anyone dares to act rashly, I will use his blood to cleanse the Sword of the Son of Heaven!"

The new emperor's enthronement ceremony was held in the Fengtian Palace, and the Manchu Dynasty civil and military stood on the main hall, waiting for the little emperor Zhang Yuanlang to ascend to the throne. After a while, the ritual music played, and the little emperor Zhang Yuanlang wore a miniature version of the dragon robe, and was led by the eunuch Huang Ye of the palm seal of the celebrant and walked into the main hall. The little emperor Zhang Yuanlang puffed out his mouth, showing that he was very unhappy.

The little emperor Zhang Yuanlang walked in the middle of the main hall, looking at both sides of his little eyes, and suddenly saw Han Fei standing in front, hurriedly shook off Huang Ye's hand, ran to Han Fei's side, grabbed his trouser leg with one hand, pointed at Huang Ye with the other, and shouted: "He's a bad guy, don't let me play, uncle beats him!" ”

Han Fei couldn't cry or laugh, raised his hand and patted Huang Ye's arm a few times, squatted down, and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen has already beaten Huang Gonggong, hurry up and sit on the dragon chair with Huang Gonggong!" ”

"No, I want my uncle to hug me!" The little emperor took advantage of the situation to throw himself into Han Fei's arms, hugged his neck, and refused to let go.

Han Fei saw that the auspicious time had arrived, and after meeting the eyes of the three auxiliary ministers, he walked up the imperial steps with Zhang Yuanlang in his arms, and just put him on the dragon chair, he jumped down again. He hurriedly whispered: "The emperor is seated, wait to buy candy for you to eat!" ”

When the little emperor heard that there was candy to eat, he immediately sat down, but his eyes kept staring at Han Fei, for fear that he would regret it.

Han Fei was also afraid that the little emperor would jump down again, so he had to kneel on the edge of the dragon chair and worship the little emperor with the ministers. He didn't react at this time, the ministers were still kneeling, and they were busy whispering to the little emperor: "Your Majesty, quickly say that the ministers are flat!" ”

The little emperor, Zhang Yuanlang, looked down and said, "Uncle said...... All the ministers are flat! ”

The solemn ceremony was made a lot easier by the little emperor. In any case, the new emperor officially succeeded to the throne, and Dahua opened a new era.
