Sister Qing, who taught eight million taels of silver to smash out, had to rest her mind and stand up to salute her eldest sister-in-law: "With your hard work and thoughtfulness, the second master should be even more competitive." ”

On the 25th day of the winter month, the Qianqing Palace issued a holy decree: to select Yonglin, the crown prince of Zhengdan Shuori.

Even if they had been prepared, the Sixth Department and Yousi Yamen were still inevitably in a panic.

What is urgent is to work clothing, food, housing and transportation, and the emperor, the queen and the crown prince are all gone, and there are regulations to follow. The old lady of Ningshou Palace is the first queen mother after the founding of Daqing, this is a rare but real honorable position, not only to distinguish the queen mother, but also not higher than the queen mother, to find a reference to go up the book to check the Southern Song Dynasty, the internal affairs office does not need to mention, the official of the Ministry of Rites and has a headache for a while; and then there is the Yongtai Emperor set up a false court, there are ten palaces in the east and west palaces have been abandoned and raised birds, according to the statistics of the internal affairs office, the crown prince now has eight sons, their mothers are famous people, the crown princess does not need to say, directly to the Kunning Palace; the biological mothers of the second emperor and the third emperor are all side concubines, and now they have been attached to the treatment of the imperial concubine; the biological mother of the fourth emperor and grandson is Guo Shufei, The Seven Emperors' Grandsons and Eight Emperors' Grandsons were born by Concubine Hongshu, and the lowest status was Yang Zhaoxun, the biological mother of the Five Emperors' Grandsons, and the five of them were about the main throne, and one of them occupied a main hall...... Not counting the future beauty pageant of the Son of Heaven, it is always right to tidy up the six palaces of the east and west and be prepared, so that the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Internal Affairs are ten times more sad than the Ministry of Rites.

The backyard of the East Palace had already been boiled, and the needle room maids of the Internal Affairs Office shuttled in, and they were busy tailoring the future concubine. The crown princess glanced at the steward of the Shangyi Bureau who was surrounded by flattery, stood up and turned her head and instructed the palace maid: "Prepare plain clothes." ”

"Do you say it again?" Prince Heng could hardly believe his ears, "Xi Gao treats the guilty? What is she tossing in a good manner? Aren't you afraid that the crown prince and grandson will be offended by Your Majesty?"

Xiao Huangmen gasped and explained: "The crown princess is kneeling in the backyard of the Qianqing Palace, and she must ask the long-lived lord to grant her request, otherwise she can only cut off the palace and retire forever to pray for the queen mother and the long-lived lord, the master and the mother, and also pray for the crown prince and the imperial grandson." ”

Prince Heng numb: "Nonsense!"

King Yijun hurriedly asked, "What is the crown princess looking for, and how did Your Majesty reply?"

Xiao Huangmen breathed a sigh of relief, and began to parrot with the two princes: "The crown princess has lost her morality since Chen, and she has failed to live up to the high expectations of the master and the master, and she is really unworthy of the throne of the mother of the country, so she asks the master to choose another virtuous and virtuous person to take charge of the palace; "The princess plays again" Chaoyun princess has high morality, not the courtiers can compare, the grandson listens to the teaching, not only the prince admits affection, the courtiers and daughters-in-law also miss it, even if the emperor has no will, the daughter-in-law should admonish the grandson, when leading the court training of the princess Chaoyun, thinking that the prince is a wise prince, so at this time I implore, it is for the grandson brother to flaunt, knowing that the mistake can be changed is a great good, resigning from the palace Fengyin, retiring to the concubine and concubine, it is the courtier's daughter-in-law who knows the mistake and admits the mistake and corrects the mistake of a piece of sincerity, please be considerate of the emperor's parents. ’”

The two kings glanced at each other: "The crown princess is worried about the old things in Nightmare Town, right?"

Followed by follow-up news, Queen Shi dismissed her daughter-in-law to no avail, urgently summoned all the sons and daughters-in-law and Princess Chaoyun into the palace to be a lobbyist, the princess was unswerving, and then declared to her in-laws: If you can't retire to the concubine position, you are willing to give up your children to kill yourself in the cold palace, so as to teach the world not to ridicule the future Son of Heaven for having an immoral wife and an unkind mother.

The father-in-law persuaded once, the mother-in-law and the mother-in-law persuaded once, the husband persuaded once, the sister-in-law persuaded once, the concubine persuaded once, and Princess Chaoyun persuaded again. Seeing that the six persuasions were fruitless, the emperor finally "reluctantly" agreed: "The crown princess repented with sincerity, I and the queen should have responded to her request, but there is the emperor's grandson who is smart and benevolent and filial, I need to take into account the dignity of the holy grandson, and the next day the crown prince inherits the unification, and the crown princess can be appointed as the imperial concubine, and still take charge of the affairs of the six palaces, compared to the old practice of the former Tang Yi'an Empress, when her hard work is successful, it is not too late to take the throne of the Kun Palace." ”

The crown princess immediately thanked her, and returned to the East Palace with her husband, and the princesses and princesses shook their heads and sighed, and they each confessed and returned to the mansion.

The three directors all wanted to scold the mother: the imperial concubine is also a concubine, and she is not qualified to stay in Kunning Palace; There are also honor guards, car drivers, and crown uniforms that need to be scrapped and remade, and the prince's officials and rough subordinates really can't slack off in one breath, and work overtime to rush for the emperor's family.

The emperor succeeded to the throne and the queen was absent, and the eyes of the two side concubines in the East Palace turned green, and they were in full swing to connect their mothers' families, hoping to take the name of the concubine Shunshun into their pockets.

At the invitation of Huang Zijie, the two governments of Rongning held an "enlarged meeting of Zhengzhiju." ”

"Since the Nightmare Town incident, the saints of the two palaces have always been dissatisfied with the crown princess, just because the emperor and grandson were established early, and there are old saints in the hall, so she was left to this day. Huang Zijie's words changed, "But the middle palace is a great opportunity after all, and the mother and son of the side concubine must grasp it carefully." ”

Gu Zheng hurriedly echoed: "Uncle is reasonable. ”

Qin Siyue (Long Xi) raised her eyebrows: "What does Lord Huang have in mind?"

"The minister doesn't dare!" Huang Zijie bowed slightly, "The minister's humble opinion, the top priority is that the side concubine should work the words 'step by step' and 'anti-guest-oriented', and then save Zhou, Changbai, and Weichen to help outside, Chitose and Princess Zong, Princess Shizi, and Princess Jiaozhi Kuang are inside, and the side concubine must not suffer in the matter of establishing a concubine." ”

"Interesting!" Qin Siyue (Long Xi) nodded with a smile, "You should talk carefully, how can we do it step by step, anti-customer-oriented!"

Huang Zijie elaborated: "Although the crown princess gave way, but with the support of the old sage, the side concubine should still be respected, but the top priority is to overpower the side concubine Wu, as long as our side concubine's position is above the side concubine Wu, the third emperor grandson should be the son of the mother, and in the future, he will be the second only prince of the imperial grandson and the sixth emperor grandson." ”

Qin Siyue (Long Xi) reminded him: "The family law of "Internal Training", the son is valued by the mother, the mother is valued by the son, the son is respected by the son, and the concubine is respected by the elder, as long as Danqi cannot be the queen, the order of the three emperors and grandsons will still be ranked behind the second emperor and grandson. ”

"Your Royal Highness, this time and that time! If there is a middle palace, the order of the eldest and youngest will naturally be judged, and now it will ......" Huang Zijie smiled meaningfully, "The six emperors and grandchildren can't always rank behind the five emperors and grandchildren. ”

Gu Zheng clapped his hands and praised: "Wonderful, wonderful, wonderful!"

Gu Chong and Gu Qiang glanced at the second uncle with contempt: You will applaud what people say.

"Interesting. Qin Siyue (Long Xi) bowed slightly, "From this point of view, now we should not use the order of the eldest and youngest to overpower the son to the mother." This order can only be corrected after the grandson is deposed and the second emperor and grandson fall out of favor.

Huang Zijie hit the nail on the head: "The crown princess can let it, and our side concubine can also let it, and the two let it show a fight...... Stand tall!"

"Not bad...... Not bad!" Gu Feng smiled at Huang Zijie, "Uncle In-law's idea is wonderful!"

The praying mantis catches cicadas and beware of the yellow finch behind, judging from the current situation, it is unrealistic to want to put down the crown princess, so take this opportunity to suppress other competitive strong opponents first, as for the side ...... The prince is in his prime, and it is not too late to slowly take the picture.

The new Wei Zhaoxun is sticking to her husband's arms and coquettish: "Master, do you like your son or your daughter?"

Yonglin touched the belly of the concubine and asked, "Don't you want to know what position you can get?"

"It's a lie to say that you are not curious, if you want to think more about it......" Wei Zhaoxun straightened up, "You are not the emperor of the former Han Dynasty, and I don't have the ability to Feiyan Hede, and now I want to be fresh, I have to get by......; Hengzhu, now you are not embarrassed to starve our mother and son, are you?"

Yonglin smiled: "I heard it, you are squeezing me with words." ”

"How dare I!" Wei Zhaoxun stroked his lower abdomen and said, "I'm not dissatisfied, without your favor, and now I'm still hungry and hungry in the pulp washing place, there are only blessings in the world that can't be enjoyed, there is no suffering that can't be endured, there are thousands of women in the world, how many young ladies and young daughters are vying to be your woman? ”

"You're sincere!" Yonglin smiled bitterly, "According to your argument, am I a little miserable?

"That's not right!" Wei Zhaoxun stretched out his hand to show her husband, "There is also a sentence called 'It is easy to go from thrift to luxury, and it is difficult to go from luxury to thrift', if you want to throw me into the Xinzheku at this time, maybe I will really feel wronged." ”

"You won't!" Yonglin shook his head and smiled bitterly, "You and her are of the same temperament...... The face is respectful, and the heart will never bow down. ”

Wei Zhaoxun was stunned: "Master, I think I'm smarter than her." ”

"Huh?" asked Yonglin casually, "How?"

Wei Zhaoxun said lightly: "I have the ability to divide one of my hearts into ten parts, and I will give the prince two or three points, five or six points, seven or eight points, or even nine points and nine, but I will leave that little bit on my own body, and on the day when I am broken by you, I can still support it with this half of it...... She's different...... It must be ten points to push the heart, and the injury is even more than twelve points, such a person only has a bright appearance, and her suffering is difficult for outsiders to understand. ”

"You're right!" Yong Lin reacted violently, "Do you know which one I'm talking about?"

"How can you not know!" Wei Zhaoxun blinked, "It's not that this master is wise and far-reaching, can our East Palace be as lively as it is now?

Yonglin made a straight face: "You're not jealous?"

"Can't do it!" Wei Zhaoxun smiled, "You are above board, she is frank and open, and she changes places, I want to have a childhood sweetheart who has no guesses, as long as I have a clear conscience and no feelings between men and women, I can still compete for favor with the prince with confidence." ”

Yonglin said helplessly: "There's nothing you don't dare to say." ”

"What are you afraid of, there is no second ...... anyway The third person heard. Wei Zhaoxun didn't care.
