Pavilion Old Mansion.

The guards surrounded the outside of the study and were impermeable, and even flies and mosquitoes were not allowed to be put in, and the girl Xiao Si was even blocked in the outer courtyard to check carefully, the light rain was still dripping, occasionally accompanied by a few thunders, the charcoal basin was roasting in the house, and several regular officials were sitting inside.

Zhang Changdong, the imperial history platform, whispered: "Today, Your Majesty did not go to the imperial study even in the court, the imperial doctors are in the queen's dormitory, the eldest prince is menacing and said that he has smallpox and contracted the cold, Ge Lao, I look at it or take the second prince to the old mansion to live, in case the queen dies and the net is broken, and the second prince is also taken out of the water, it will inevitably be turbulent." ”

Jiang Youru is a person from the Hanlin Academy, and he also waved his hand with a teacup in his hand: "It's not proper, the water was originally muddy, and the people on the eldest prince's side are suspecting that it is our black hand, and now we are the best policy to respond to all changes with the same, and the concubine Niangniang's side will only be watched by Zhou Guiren, and the queen dares to give the second prince a black hand, isn't it just forcing His Majesty to abolish the queen." ”

Zhang Ge Lao, who was the leader, wore thick plush shoulders, touched his white beard, looked at Sheng Heng and Zhao Yuanzhi who were quietly thinking next to him, and said: "What do you two think, we are all for the sake of the court, if the eldest prince is the crown prince, and the queen and the uncle control the court, the country cannot be destroyed in our hands, just say anything." ”

Mrs. Liu and Zhang Ge Lao have an extremely good personal relationship, and Zhang Ge Lao has long agreed to keep Sheng Heng by his side to teach carefully, these three or four months of getting along, he can see that Sheng Heng is a upright, not humble and not arrogant personality, he is a good seedling of a pure minister, and he can be among the Imperial History Observatory or the Inspectorate in the future, which is a blessing involved.

On the contrary, it was Zhao Yuanzhi who was the Fuzhou Xie Yuan, he looked at the face of Sheng Heng and Hubu Shangshu before agreeing to teach, never imagined that this person was quite ambitious and ruthless than many old courtiers, and he also ended up in government affairs that were not stuck by the court situation through his hands.

Sheng Heng moved, straightened his back and handed over his luggage, and was silent for a moment before he said: "According to the humble opinion of the younger generation, the smallpox of the eldest prince may be an accident, but the wind and cold are not really, now the two princes are too young, even if there is a prince in the country, the prince needs to do things for the son of heaven when necessary, so now we should visit the famous people and do our best to save the eldest prince." ”

In this way, the possibility of the eldest prince being murdered by them can be cleared, Sheng Heng knows that returning to the capital means taking the heir, although the second prince is a concubine, but he is a noble character at a young age, quite a legacy of the first emperor, and treats people and things with rules and demeanor, on the other hand, the eldest prince who is a few years older, hey-

"If you want to blame it, blame our majesty for being an infatuated person, and he is reluctant to spread the branches for the sake of the first queen." Zhao Yuanzhi poked his palms on the stove, looked at Sheng Heng's stunned appearance, and said: "If there are many princes, naturally there is no need to think about what the country is doing, and An'an will do their own duties, since they have already suspected our black hands, how can the dirty water be wiped clean, so simply don't do it, let the second prince and wife sit on the throne of the prince peacefully, the concubine Niangniang is from a civilian background, and can understand that the life of the people is not easy, such a queen mother will not coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes." ”

Everyone didn't dare to speak, and dared to say openly that they wanted to kill the eldest prince, this Zhao Yuanzhi was tired of life.

But Zhang Ge Lao did not speak.

Zhao Yuanzhi put his hands together on his cuffs: "Lord Zhang has led the Yushitai to impeach the uncle of the country for a few years, but it has shaken the fundamentals, because our uncle knows that as long as he holds the power of the army, our majesty will not dare to move him, as long as the eldest prince is safe and stable, he can do it even if he is a prince." ”

He raised his head and said, "Isn't Lord Jiang also unaccustomed to seeing the queen's nephews relying on their power to do mischief in the Hanlin Academy?" They just rely on the eldest prince to be a descendant, even if His Majesty does not set up a crown prince, since ancient times, the eldest prince has both of them. ”

"It's not that our majesty doesn't appoint the second prince as the crown prince, but he is even more afraid that if he deprives the eldest prince of the opportunity to inherit the throne, the uncle will immediately, people are always arrogant when they have bargaining chips."

"Yuan Zhen-" Sheng Heng wanted to speak and stopped, can he talk nonsense if he plots to kill the royal bloodline!

Zhang Ge Lao took a sip of hot tea: "You have all worked hard in the past three days, go eat something first, and before the eldest prince is good or go, we can't take it lightly." After a pause, he looked at the person sitting steadily, and added: "Yuan Zhi stays." ”

Waiting for everyone to leave, Zhao Yuanzhi always had a little smile on the corner of his mouth, and his fingers knocked on the armrest of the chair: "What does the teacher want to ask the students?" ”

"What you said is right, Your Majesty is also pleased with the second prince, as long as the second prince is taught by a good student, he will definitely be a bright monarch in the future." Zhang Ge Lao's face was serious, and his shrewd eyes stared at the young man: "If you come to do it, what will be the plan?" ”

"No one wants to bear the sin of killing the Great Prince, not even His Majesty today, but many things depend on God." Zhao Yuanzhi stood up and bowed his hand respectfully: "Does the teacher have eyeliner next to the eldest prince?" ”

"This kind of thing can't be done even by henchmen." Zhang Ge looked at Zhao Yuanzhi directly.

"The teacher is thinking too much." Zhao Yuanzhi smiled, stepped forward and said a few words in Zhang Gelao's ear.

After a long silence, Zhang Ge Lao raised his eyes to look at Zhao Yuanzhi, and suddenly spoke: "Zhao Yuanzhi, if you are the first and first in the three years' meeting, I will guarantee you to enter the cabinet, and you will become the youngest second assistant." ”

Sheng Heng was waiting for Zhao Yuanzhi outside, saw him come out, and gave him the taro cake in his hand, "What did you say to Zhang Gelao?" ”

Zhao Yuanzhi stretched his waist: "Naturally, you don't like it, as long as the chips disappear, then all the assumptions don't exist, as long as Uncle Guo moves slightly, he will be directly charged with rebellion and brought to justice." ”

"Then have you ever thought that the queen would snatch the second prince to raise him?" Sheng Heng turned pale with his hands behind his back.

Zhao Yuanzhi smiled, nibbled on the taro cake and said to him unhurriedly: "Do you think Your Majesty likes this wife very much?" Don't worry, if my guess is right, the eldest prince is dead, the uncle of the country will definitely be ready to move, Your Majesty will be thunderous in an instant, and then raise the concubine to the imperial concubine, the same as the deputy queen, the queen can only choose to endure humiliation for the sake of her mother's family. ”

Sheng Heng hated intrigues, and only felt sick to his stomach for a while.

Zhao Yuanzhi faced the night wind: "Is the eldest sister in good health?" ”

"Great." Zhao Yuanzhi paused, probably saying that the Liu family has now moved to the small Buddha Hall, Xuan Fengyi handed over all the power of the family to Yang Baomei, although the third room was displeased, but looking at the situation of the monthly case doubling, he closed his mouth stiffly, "It's you, I heard that Lan Guidan bewitched the public in front of your mother again, I am really curious, you and her really have something." ”

"I'm curious, too, and to be honest, I've never met her at all." Zhao Yuanzhi chattered with Sheng Heng again, and the parents were short.

I'm waiting for the moon to rise in the middle of the sky.

Suddenly, someone rushed over, saying that the palace was out of water, and there were only three palaces away from the queen's bedroom, and His Royal Highness the eldest prince was frightened and convulsed, and he didn't know which bastard palace person opened the window, thinking that the air circulation would take away the sick gas, but as a result, His Royal Highness the eldest prince choked on cigarettes, and at this moment the entire queen's bedroom was in chaos.

Everyone returned to the stove and sat down again, quietly waiting for the news in the palace, and at the same time instructed Xiao Si to prepare court clothes.

At night, someone rushed over, saying that the second prince was thrown into the lotus pond, but all the palace people went to the queen to help, and the little palace maid who passed by jumped down to save her.

"Is the second prince in the way?" Zhang Changdong stood up.

The man shook his head, and Zhang Changdong immediately bowed his hand and said, "I'll go to the palace to see the situation." "If these two princes are both, then it's a big deal······

After a while, Jiang Youru couldn't sit still, and was ready to go to see the situation.

Sheng Heng and Zhao Yuanzhi watched Zhang Ge doze off, and quietly walked to the partition room next to him, Sheng Heng said, "Did you come up with the idea to set the harem on fire?" ”

Zhao Yuanzhi is undeniable.

"You still let people murder the second prince! You are too swordsman, if the second prince has one or two, Zhang Ge Lao will be the first to kill you! ”

"The second prince has nothing to do with me, I just signaled to Zhang Ge Lao to let the concubine go over to see the eldest prince, and leave the second prince alone in the palace." Zhao Yuanzhi raised his hand to pour tea for himself, and looked at Sheng Heng's stunned appearance: "I don't dare to do anything about murdering the future prince, I don't dare to do it if you lend me 800 guts, Sheng Heng, I'm just a person from the queen's side who has found a little gap, guess how this matter will evolve in the end?" ”

How is it evolving?

Naturally, the queen wanted to kill the second prince to escort her son, but it turned out to be self-defeating and scared her son away, and then it was a sure thing that the second prince was murdered over there, and the queen killed herself this time, and everyone would count the dirty water of the palace on the queen's head.

When the time comes, the murder of the prince and the attempted murder of the concubine will immediately give His Majesty the maximum step of abolishing the queen.

What a powerful plan, a fire to the palace, all the forces are calculated, the concubine is in the queen's place, so she can't be splashed with dirty water at all, she pushed her son down, and the queen called everyone in the palace to save her, as long as you grope carefully, you can tear out the eyeliner of the entire prince's faction from one eyeliner.

About two hours later, the sky turned white, and the mourning bell rang.

Zhang Ge Lao slowly opened his eyes and shook his sleeves.

looked at Zhao Yuanzhi, who was sitting quietly next to him, and said slowly: "Tomorrow, the position of Dali Temple will be vacated for you." ”
