Any emperor who thinks he "will live a long time" will not like his sons to be too strong.

If she also joins at this time, the emperor will immediately suspect that she is secretly forming a party for personal gain, and forming a faction with the five princes!

Because the two sisters-in-law were born with frailty, Tuoba Hong didn't value them, and Su Rili also deliberately distanced himself. Yun Dan could probably guess that the position of the East Palace would be selected among the three princes of King Zhao and five or six princes. King Zhao's biological mother committed a serious crime, and King Zhao himself was not likable, so he was afraid that only the sixth prince could compete with the five princes.

Now the biological mother of the sixth prince is critically ill, and the courtiers of the court are playing a poor woman who is dying, and she also supports the five princes with the courtiers - in the emperor's opinion, the five princes and the six princes are all candidates for the prince, and even the six princes are talented and intelligent, and they are more valued by their fathers. At this time, the balance tilted a large amount to the side of the five princes, and the emperor would be angry, thinking that the five princes' henchmen had already made a move and secretly wooed the courtiers.

The fifth prince is still a four-year-old child, and his biological mother Ye is also a mediocre woman, and her maternal family is not obvious. So in the harem, who is helping the five princes?

If Yun Dan dared to say anything in support of the Five Princes, this hat of the party would not be able to escape.

Yun Dan didn't dare to talk more, so he honestly followed the emperor back to the palace, and prepared a generous gift and went to Yuzhao Palace with everyone to visit Concubine Hui.

On the night of the emperor's return to the palace, the Empress Dowager of Changle Palace issued a decree to punish the officials who participated in the performance of Concubine Hui in the court.

So far, smart people have understood that Concubine Hui and His Royal Highness the Mother and Son cannot be provoked, at least during the days when Concubine Hui is "critically ill and dying". The emperor didn't like to see one of the princes too loud, and the queen mother also pitied Concubine Hui very much, and the five princes wanted to enter the East Palace, afraid that they would have to wait until Concubine Hui died.

And those courtiers who supported the five princes did not give up, and they even had some snickering joy - wasn't Concubine Hui dying of illness? When she dies, the six princes will have nothing to rely on, and they will not be manipulated by others!

A few days later, the proposal of the five princes to enter the East Palace was gradually ignored, and the harem women did not dare to mention it.

The spring of the thirteenth year of Qianwu was extra cold. It's March, the azaleas are blooming sparsely, and although the snow and ice have melted, it still snows every night. Such a cold spring is obviously worse for Lin Yuan's poisoned body.

Tuoba Hong rushed to Yuzhao Palace to accompany her on the night he returned to the palace, and stayed in Yuzhao Palace for the next few days, and moved the excerpts of the Qinzheng Palace and the South Study over. Most of the imperial doctors in the palace were summoned over and took turns to consult and prescribe medicine to Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan was terminally ill, and said in a groggy voice that he wanted to see Qiqi, and he went to Changxin Palace to drag the six princes out of the queen's arms and stuff them into Lin Yuan's bed.

As an emperor, Tuoba Hong is really interesting enough to her. Helplessly, Lin Yuan was not happy, what she needed most now was not the extravagant companionship of the emperor's husband, but - Wushi San!

The emperor was kind and invited the imperial doctors of the palace to save her life. Lin Yuan was hindered by the presence of so many imperial doctors, so he didn't dare to take Wushisan at all.

She declared that she was critically ill, and the Queen Mother even ordered the Ministry of Rites to prepare a guard of honor for the concubine, and then posthumously sealed her when she died. But this is all scary, Lin Yuan is very sick, but he has not yet reached the step of the ghost gate. The imperial doctor increased the dosage of Xiong Bao for her, and the medicine was hanging, and she was sometimes sleepy and sometimes awake, so she continued day by day.

Tuoba Hong lived in Yuzhao Palace for more than half a month, and Lin Yuan was still alive and well. He didn't think of any bullying at all, so he was simply happy for her, feeling that it was his imperial yang energy that carried the god of death and asked for his life.

This dying Concubine Hui is always angry, and the courtiers have different thoughts. No one dared to mention the five princes anymore, but the voice of the prince was still very loud. The queen of Changxin Palace was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, so she also seconded the proposal and persuaded the emperor to establish the East Palace as soon as possible.

The emperor stayed in Yuzhao Palace day and night, and Shangguan Li also took the music watch to Yuzhao Palace to play. She said with a straight face: "The emperor is young and strong, and he shouldn't have made a prince." However, once this kind of thing is provoked by the courtiers, it will not be easily stopped. When several princes, princesses, and the forces that supported them saw this sign, they would also feel uneasy and begin to move their minds. If the emperor is forced to refuse to establish a prince, but will accumulate hidden dangers, and if he finds out that a prince has secretly accumulated strong power and even provoked patriarchy after a few years, what should it be? ”

The Emperor felt that this was reasonable. Once the matter of the prince is clarified, the princes will immediately start to work on it. No one doesn't want to be the emperor, he has suppressed it on the surface, and several princes and their henchmen will definitely act in secret. When their power is discovered, I am afraid that it will be too late to suppress it.

Lin Yuan saw that Empress Shangguan didn't want to support any prince - she was not stupid, the emperor was like a thief to prevent her, and it was impossible for her two children to be born. If she shows her support for another prince, then Tuoba Hong will take the lead in suppressing this one.

She seems to be playing with her heart at this time, adding fuel to the fire of the rival prince, stirring up between Yun Zhaoyi and Concubine Hui, and provoking more civil strife.

As the mother of the six princes, Lin Yuan naturally knew how to avoid suspicion, and she didn't dare to say a word to the opposing prince. The same is true of Ye Xiuxin, the biological mother of the fifth prince.

Because of the empress's advances, the emperor began to reconsider the establishment of the prince.

On March 21, Emperor Huai Ke entered the palace to pay respects.

Entering the palace together was the princess of Xiliang, Chen, and the younger sister of the prince, the lord of Longchang. The water spilled by the married daughter, the fan jade provincial relatives did not bring any waves to the harem, and the concubines' eyes were fixed on several little princes, where would they pay attention to a long emperor who had already been married.

Fan Yu went to Changle Palace and kowtowed, then went to Jianzhang Palace to sit for a while, and then went to Yun Zhaoyi's Lintoe Palace.

When Lin Yuan got the news, it was noon on March 22. She fell asleep for a long time, and when she woke up, she was still confused, so she listened to the palace maid who served and said casually: "Emperor Huai Ke came to Yuzhao Palace to ask for peace, and the mother was still asleep, so she didn't invite Emperor Ji in." Emperor Ji is now going to Linzhi Palace to see Zhaoyi Niangniang......"

Lin Yuan coughed violently, and her handkerchief was bloodshot. "When...... Was it yesterday? ”

"The emperor entered the palace yesterday evening." The palace maid didn't care, got up and brought soup to serve Lin Yuan for dinner.

Lin Yuan was silent for a long time, and finally waved his hand and said, "All down." ”

She didn't expect that Fan Yu would insist on entering the palace and go to the Lintoe Palace.

No one in the court dared to nominate the fifth prince, she thought that Fan Yu would leave the capital with each other, but she still entered the palace!

Outsiders said that the prince of the Xiliang palace was seriously ill, and Emperor Huai Ke was unable to deal with the battle for the heir, so he came to Beijing to ask his father for help. However, Lin Yuan was very clear that the purpose of Fan Yu would not be so simple.

Fan Yu and Yun Dan are both princesses, and how the two intersect, Lin Yuan is not clear. However, when the Tibetan envoys entered the Qin State and presented the princess Yundan, it was led by the King of Western Liang. Because of the king of Western Liang, Yun Dan decided to marry into the Qin State.

Lin Yuan's mind was confused, and the situation in front of her was obviously very unfavorable to her, and she was seriously ill in bed, and she had no power to resist all dangers.

She thought about it and had no way, so she had to beg Zhao Zhaoyi to bring Emperor Changning over and ask Changning to pass on the message to the right prime minister.

Before she could come up with a countermeasure, on March 30, the report that the king of Xiliang died of illness on the front line was quickly sent to the capital.

The emperor was not surprised by this. The king of Xiliang had the same disease as the prince, and a few years ago, the imperial doctor diagnosed the king of Xiliang with a short life. After the king of Xiliang was ordered by the emperor to lead his troops to the battle, he could not go into battle in person, but only moved the 200,000 elite soldiers of Yunzhou City to the front line. In the end, he did not die heroically under the enemy's sword like Chu Dakai, but died peacefully in a mansion in Youzhou City.

This incident did not cause much turmoil inside and outside the court. The king of Western Liang was unable to go to the battlefield when he led the troops during his lifetime, and after his death, he was still commanded by the two generals of Yunzhou City to fight against the Xiongnu. The coffin of the king of Xiliang was welcomed back to Beijing with a grand ceremony and buried in the imperial tomb according to the ancestral system.

The only people who talk about this are the women inside and outside the palace. They didn't know anything about the war, but they were very interested in the fire in the back house of the Xiliang Palace. They craned their necks and eyes to stare at the seriously ill prince of Xiliang and his two restless concubine brothers, who were jumping up and down, and the eldest emperor of Huaike, who was anxious to attack the lord.

Princess Chen of Xiliang was a weak woman, and after her husband's death, she did not have any power to protect her son and daughter-in-law. Fortunately, Fan Yu was supported by the emperor's shelf, and he brought his family into the capital to ask for help.

On the tenth day of the first month of April, the coffin of King Xiliang arrived in Beijing, and the funeral ceremony was heavy. On the same day, the emperor issued an edict ordering the prince of Western Liang to inherit the title.

Poor Shizi, so sick that he couldn't even get out of bed, and he couldn't even enter Beijing to receive the order. Fan Yu held the holy decree for him, and his face was full of sorrow at his father-in-law's funeral. Although her father favored her for a while and gave her the title to her half-dead husband, the time of the son was short, and she became a widow in the future, how could she win the two concubines?

The concubines in the palace had little intersection with Fan Yu in the past, and they all felt pitiful to her at this time. The eldest emperor of the royal family, fate is nothing more than this.

On April 17, when the coffin of King Xiliang was buried on the seventh day, there was an urgent report from the Xiongnu battlefield.

Feng Huaien, the commander of the Western Liang army, captured the Xiongnu Khan and beheaded him on the spot.

This was the most exciting news the emperor had ever heard in the three years of the campaign. According to the pioneer officer of the letter, General Feng originally wanted to capture the Xiongnu lord alive and send it to the capital to sacrifice prisoners, and at the same time asked the Xiongnu to take out ten cities in exchange for the life of the lord. However, the battle was also very thrilling, their cavalry seized the opportunity to capture the khan in the valley, but the Huns' army quickly flanked it. General Feng was worried about what would happen, and was rescued by the enemy, so he had to be killed on the spot.
