The room was a little stuffy, and the long curtain hung down to the ground, not revealing a trace of wind.

Su Qiang sat outside and tilted her head to take a nap, but whenever there was some movement inside, she glanced inside. The chamberlain Qu Fang stood in front of the curtain with his head down, his face was pale and gloomy, and fine sweat covered his forehead.

From time to time, someone outside walked in lightly and whispered something in Qu Fang's ear. Qu Fang always shook his head or waved his hand to stop the messenger from talking. Finally, he said impatiently: "Your Highness's life and death are uncertain now, let these things go." ”

"What's the matter?" Su Qiang glanced at her and said lightly.

Qu Fang hesitated for a moment on his face, glanced at the dead curtain, walked in front of Su Qiang, bowed down and said, "The matter of the court, now that someone has reported it, the people below don't know what to do." ”

"Oh." Su Qiang rubbed her brows, and looked at the copper kettle that marked the hour under the candlelight, it should have been time. At this time, I tried my best to come to the East Palace, and what I reported must be something important, and this matter must be decided before getting up early tomorrow morning.

Was the crown prince like this before? In the middle of the night, I still see people and discuss things, so it's no wonder that I don't get sick.

"Let him in. Hongu asks what is the matter. Su Qiang said lightly, then stood up, and motioned to Xiaoqing behind her to wait for her to tidy up her clothes and makeup, so she changed her position and sat on the table.

Qu Fang seemed to want to say something, seeing Su Qiang like this, she had to order the little chamberlain to bring someone up.

He lowered his head and raised his eyes slightly, feeling a little apprehensive.

Although the crown princess is quite different, if you talk about the boudoir girl, the crown princess should be the first in the capital, but now when it comes to the affairs of the court, the crown princess probably doesn't understand anything.

That's it, now that the prince is still in a coma, these servants can't be the master, so let's listen to what the princess has to say.

The door of the outer temple was carefully opened, and the chamberlain ushered in a man.

He was wearing a court robe that he only wore in the last court, holding a court wat in his hand, and it seemed that he was going to get instructions from the prince and went directly to the court.

followed the chamberlain in, and saw that the person Qu Fang signaled to him to meet was a woman, and this person was slightly stunned at the moment. The slightly stunned expression was only for a moment, and he lifted his robe and knelt down.

"Weichen Zhu Xuechen greets Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess." He is in his thirties, and now he kneels down to say goodbye, his expression is calm and calm, and he looks quite a bit of a person.

Su Qiang knew the name.

Zhu Xuechen, who used to be the head of the country, is now the wine of the country. She remembered that because of the problem of the selection of the wine for the prince of the country, the regent Li Zhang also came to the East Palace. At that time, the prince deceived Li Zhang, making Li Zhang think that another candidate Wang Pei was from the East Palace, Li Zhang was suspicious, and Zhu Xuechen was promoted a few levels to become the prince of the country.

Sure enough, he was the prince's man.

Really, I can't live for a few years, and I'm still so bothered and laborious.

Su Qiang sighed in her heart and said lightly: "Master Zhu doesn't have to be polite, get up and take a seat." ”

Zhu Xuechen thanked him and sat down, glanced at the heavy curtains, and said softly: "His Royal Highness the Prince, he ......."

Su Qiang motioned to Xiaoqing to pour tea for Zhu Xuechen, and also said softly: "Lord Zhu is his own person, and this palace will not hide it from you, the prince will not wake up for a while." ”

Zhu Xuechen's calm face frowned, and he raised his eyes to look at Qu Fang.

Qu Fang bowed her head and stood solemnly, as if everything was up to the crown princess.

Su Qiang's eyes were heavy, and she looked at Zhu Xuechen and said, "Master Zhu has something to do, don't hesitate to talk to this palace." ”

There was a moment of silence in the room.

Don't say that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, even if it is, is it useful for a boudoir woman like the crown princess to tell her.

But if he didn't say it, he really didn't know what to do.

Zhu Xuechen thought about it, finally stood up, bowed down and said, "Don't hide it from Your Highness, today Your Majesty has dismissed the post of secretary of the Ministry of War." Now that the position of Shangshu is vacant, the regent of the dynasty tomorrow morning will inevitably ask the opinions of the courtiers, and he will also ask everyone to recommend someone to ask His Majesty's meaning. A few of us discussed it today, but we didn't know who to recommend. Although this matter is basically left and right by the regent, if we don't fight, we are not reconciled, so we came to ask His Royal Highness the Prince. ”

I see.

In such a high position as the Ministry of War, if it is one's own person, it is equivalent to one of the six departments. The prince must have someone in his heart, who is this candidate, who recommends him, how to move and how to plan to ensure that nothing goes wrong, the prince must have a consideration in his heart.

Now that he's unconscious, the people below him must be in a mess.

"Do you have any candidates?" Su Qiang took a sip of tea, lowered her eyes and said solemnly.
