Chapter 723: Monarch and Ministers (1)
The news of the prince's awakening soon reached the ears of Wei Guogong and others.
The eyes of the kneeling Wei Guogong flashed with joy, and he immediately whispered to the Jingguo Gong: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really blessed and has survived this catastrophe. ”
If it weren't for being in the mourning hall, Wei Guogong really wanted to laugh a few times.
The state has a prince, and the people's hearts are stable.
Emperor Xuanhe died and returned to heaven, if something happened to the prince again, Da Chu would be really in chaos. The most important and fatal question is here, who will be appointed as the new prince?
The Seven Princes and the Eight Princes are all princes who are concubines, and they are not smart and clever, and their talents are mediocre. Choosing one of the two of them is enough for a headache. Moreover, this matter is not something that they can decide with a pat on the head. Queen Pei alone can't pass that level.
Empress Pei ordered the mother and son of the second princess to go to the Jiaofang Palace yesterday, and the intentions of this move were very clear to the courtiers with bright eyes.
Brother Heng is the grandson of the emperor, and he can't find fault with his identity. It's just that Brother Heng is too young. It takes more than ten years for a three-year-old child to grow into an adult. There are so many things that have changed.
For one day and two nights, Wei Guogong was so worried that he lost a lot of hair.
It's good now.
As soon as the prince woke up, these problems were immediately solved.
A smile flashed in Yasukuni's eyes, and he said in a low voice: "I'll tell everyone about this and let everyone feel at ease." ”
Wei Guogong nodded slightly.
There was no loud noise in the mourning hall, and the Yasukuni Gong first whispered a few words to several officials behind him. One by one, in less than a stick of incense, all the officials inside and outside the mourning hall knew the good news that the prince had woken up.
Everyone's spirits were lifted.
Especially Liang Shangshu, he was so excited that he almost cried on the spot.
Great, his grandson-in-law is safe. His granddaughter can also be a queen.
……
In the blink of an eye, it was dark again.
The ministers knelt for a day, and finally could rest for a while.
The Duke of Weiguo, the Duke of Jingguo and the Ministry of Shangshu went to visit His Royal Highness the Crown Prince together.
I didn't think about it, but I was stopped outside the dormitory.
He Qigong, the commander of the guards of the East Palace, arched his hand: "Please forgive me, three adults." The queen mother made a phoenix decree, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just woke up today, his body is weak, and he is not suitable to see anyone. Please ask the three adults to go back and rest, and when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can see people, he will summon the adults to come. ”
Wei Guogong glanced at He Qi and said in a deep voice: "We only look at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and make sure that His Highness is safe and sound, and we can rest assured." ”
He Qi did not mean to give in at all: "The last general will only listen to the orders of the queen mother and His Royal Highness the crown prince." ”
Wei Guogong: "......"
Wei Guogong touched a hard nail and was a little annoyed in his heart. However, he has quite a city. did not show unhappiness on his face, but opened his mouth to praise: "Commander He is loyal to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, which is admirable. ”
He Qijun didn't have a trace of superfluous expression on his face: "The last general's greatest wish is to become a loyal and good general of Great Chu." ”
A hairy boy dares to say that he is a loyal minister and a good general in front of him!
He is an old minister of the Three Dynasties and the head of the military generals. In terms of qualifications, even He Qi's father, Ping Guogong, had to bow his head and shout Uncle Jiang in front of him. This He Qi only had Queen Pei and the crown prince in his eyes, and he didn't put him in his eyes at all.
Wei Guogong snorted heavily in his heart.
He Qi's expression remained unchanged.
After experiencing the joint assassination of the eldest prince and others, Queen Pei is now a bow and a snake, and the only people who can be trusted are Zhu Qijue and him. Zhu Qijue went to guard the prison, and he led the guards to protect the prince's safety.
There is also wrestling between monarchs and ministers. The Son of Heaven is strong and powerful, and he can suppress the ministers. On the contrary, the Son of Heaven was hollowed out by the ministers, and there was only one name left, and the emperor's order could not leave the capital. This kind of thing is not uncommon in all dynasties.
The sixth prince has not yet ascended the throne, and he is still the crown prince, and he is at his weakest time, and it is also the duty of guarding against the ministers.
The Duke of Yasukuni was not willing to leave, and opened his mouth to say: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is highly poisoned, and the ministers are worried and worried. I'll wait to take a look for myself and make sure His Highness is safe. This will also appease the ministers. Please ask the commander to report to the queen, and the queen will be able to understand our hard work after careful consideration. ”
He Qi didn't enter the oil and salt, and he didn't move: "The queen mother has guarded His Royal Highness the Crown Prince all day, and she just rested not long ago. The last general will not dare to be easily disturbed. ”
Yasukuni Gong: "......"
Yasukuni Gong also hit a hard nail.
The atmosphere was slightly awkward.
The official Shangshu had to open his mouth to play a round: "It's getting late, it's really inappropriate to disturb the mother and the prince now." Why don't we go back first and come back tomorrow when it's dawn. ”
Finally have an insight.
He Qi glanced approvingly at the official book: "Your Excellency is reasonable. ”
Come on, He Qi led a group of East Palace guards to block the door tightly, and they couldn't break in. I can only leave in a huff.
He Qi looked at the figures of the three of them leaving, and secretly exhaled.
This offended people, others couldn't do it and didn't dare to do it, and only he could stop Wei Guogong and others.
……
"This bastard boy, relying on his ability to be the commander of the guards of the East Palace, has won the trust of the queen and the crown prince, and he doesn't take you and me in his eyes at all! Listen to what he said, if I were twenty years younger, I would have to teach him a lesson today! ”
Wei Guogong went to Yasukuni's house and scolded He Qi fiercely.
The Duke of Yasukuni was also angry, and scolded He Qi with the Duke of Weiguo.
After scolding, the Duke of Yasukuni sulked in his heart, and after thinking about it, he had to admit: "This congratulatory prayer is indeed loyal to the queen and crown prince." I didn't hesitate to offend you and me, and didn't let us enter the dormitory. ”
"To be honest, this bravery and fierceness, you and I were far inferior when we were young."
Wei Guogong scolded and let out his anger, and he was not so stingy as not to admit that He Qi was excellent: "Among the young people of the younger generation, there is indeed no one who can match He Qi. ”
After a pause, he said, "Only Pei Zhang can compare with He Qi." It's a pity that Pei Zhang was implicated by his father and became the son of a criminal minister, his future was ruined, and he was exiled to Lingnan. ”
When Yasukuni Gong heard Pei Zhang's name, he immediately rolled his eyes: "Don't put this name in front of me." ”
If it weren't for Pei Zhang, his granddaughter would not have become an old girl completely.
After the New Year, Ye Qingyun was twenty years old. Among the nobles in the capital, there are only ones who have not married at this age.
Wei Guogong glanced at Jingguo Gong: "Don't be hard-mouthed." In my opinion, Pei Zhang is a kind person. Otherwise, he will marry your granddaughter. Now, Qingyun's girl has to go to Lingnan. Rather than suffer that sin, it is better to keep it in the house all the time. ”
The Duke of Jingguo sighed, didn't want to mention his granddaughter anymore, and instead said in a low voice: "In your opinion, do the Marquis of Jinning and Zhen Yuanhou know about the assassination of the prince by several princes?" ”
