Song Yixiao sent Song Luoyan away with suspicion, not that she didn't want to inquire in detail, but Song Luoyan was tight-lipped except for hinting that King Su was more likely to ascend the throne - Song Yixiao now said that the relationship with her was far away, and it was not close to it, so after thinking about it, she didn't tear her face and ask questions, called Song Xuan over, and after saying some common words, Song Luoyan also left.

After she left, Song Yixiao sent Song Xuan back to her residence, ordered someone to invite Jian Xubai back to the backyard, and told him about the conversation between the two sisters: "It's really a coincidence!" You just said that you want to choose King Su, and the meaning revealed in my sister's words is also optimistic about King Su, but she didn't say it. ”

When saying this, Song Yixiao thought again, if the old lady Duanmu really attached great importance to Jian Xubai as Su Shaoge said, then would the old lady fall to King Su because she expected Jian Xubai's choice?

"If Lu Hehao, a concubine, was really rescued by his grandmother, and his grandmother supported King Su, then the reason why his grandmother rescued Lu Hehao was not necessarily to support Lu Hehao to seize the throne, but had other plans." Jian Xubai obviously thought of this as well, and after a moment of silence, he said, "If that's the case, I'm a little worried about my grandmother......

Song Yixiao understood the meaning of his words, because he was afraid that the old lady Duanmu would hitch up with herself in order to pave the way for Yanhou Mansion.

Because King Su now has the strength to ascend the throne, but he does not have the title to ascend the throne - he was personally succeeded by Emperor Xianjia - although it is said that after the strength is strong to a certain extent, it can easily crush the name, but if the supporters of King Su have such power, they do not need to lie dormant so far!

If Old Lady Duanmu can solve this trouble for King Su, the credit can be imagined!

And most of the people who enjoy this credit are Yanhou Mansion.

Thinking of this, Song Yixiao couldn't help but feel a little heavy: "But I hope it's better not to be like this, otherwise how can we receive it with peace of mind?" In fact, after King Su ascended the throne, the most important thing must be the Su family, even if we have the relationship of five sisters, but after all, there is a layer of separation. ”

The implication is that even if the old lady Duanmu has made great contributions, the Yanhou Mansion can't go beyond the Su family, so why work too hard?

In fact, this is also the reason why Song Yixiao has been hesitating between the crown prince and King Su, and the reason why these two have the advantage of winning the throne is because of their foreign families.

One Fengzhou Wei, one Qingzhou Su.

This also means that no matter who becomes the new monarch, the first to be polished will definitely be their foreign family, and then it will be the turn of other people's families - Yanhou Mansion will definitely not be able to get the first place!

Even if the relationship between Empress Wei and her mother's family is not as close as that between Empress Dowager Su and her mother's family, this does not mean that after she becomes Empress Dowager Wei, she will not be partial to her mother's family.

This has nothing to do with her relationship with her mother's family, but out of consideration of pros and cons: the prince is younger than King Su, no matter how smart and sensible he is, it is impossible to expect a child who has not yet tied his hair to govern the huge country and settle the intricate relationship between the court and the court.

Therefore, if the crown prince ascends the throne, either his biological mother Wei Yinxuan will listen to the government, or let a few ministers come out to jointly govern.

Until the crown prince was old enough to sustain the country, he was just a decoration.

So whether it is the queen mother's curtain or the minister's order, in order to prevent the young prince from doing decorations all the time, it is very important to check and balance the court.

Otherwise, who can guarantee that when the prince grows up to be pro-government, he will be able to pro-govern smoothly?

The Wei family is related to the queen's mother and son, which is a natural ally.

Therefore, at that time, Empress Wei will definitely grace her mother's family to consolidate the status of the mother and son, and also use the power of the Wei family to balance the courtiers - in fact, in all dynasties, where the young lord is in the court, the power of the queen mother's family will often expand sharply.

If it is a mediocre king, then the courtiers who don't like the dictatorship of their relatives can only hope that the new lord will ascend the throne, or the queen mother will hang up, so that the relatives may decline.

The reason why this situation occurs, in fact, is not because the lord Shaoguo is suspicious, and the insecurity of being the queen mother is to win over and help?

This is a serious woman, a man who can be seen in a lifetime, except for her mother's family, that is, her husband's family.

And when the young lord ascended the throne, the little emperor himself didn't understand, how could his biological mother not worry, the powerful people in the clan would bully orphans and widows and plot to usurp the throne?

So when the queen mother wants to find a backer, who else can she find besides her mother's family?

One or two queen mothers may be desperate for their mother's family because of their feelings, and they would rather wronged their sons than provide for their parents' families, but it is impossible for all the queen mothers who are young to come to the dynasty to help their mothers dig up their son's corners willingly, right?

This situation occurs frequently, is it because the queen mother's family is too good at brainwashing her daughter, and it is not caused by interests!

Therefore, no matter how beautiful and sincere Empress Wei's promise is now, once the crown prince sits in that position, she will do it unless the queen suddenly becomes stupid.

changed to Song Yixiao, it was the same choice.

This also means that even if the Yanhou Mansion chooses the crown prince, when performing meritorious services in the future, don't think about overstepping the Wei family.

changed the king of Su, and also had to succumb to the Su family - it's really unwilling!

Song Yixiao sometimes resents Emperor Duanhua, why can't he be more peaceful, generous, and tolerant?

Otherwise, what would Yanhou Mansion do to wade into this muddy water again?

However, the matter has come to this point, and it is useless to hate Emperor Duanhua no matter how angry he is.

Song Yixiao thought for a while, and then worried, "Although King Su and the fifth sister are in love, if King Su ascends the throne, the fifth sister will ...... If she hasn't made much progress in the past two years, her heart is not suitable for the palace! ”

Jian Xubai sighed: "Let's consider this matter when King Su succeeds in ascending the throne!" In the end, they are a young husband and wife, and King Su is not a ruthless and unrighteous person, so he will not be too ruthless to his fifth sister - I have ordered someone to go to Liaozhou to ask my father for all kinds of doubts, and it is really unfortunate that my father is not in the imperial capital now! ”

"Things are not going well!" Song Yixiao also sighed, "How are the two days in the court?" What did His Majesty do with Gu Xiangke? ”

Emperor Duanhua didn't do much except for the fact that after receiving the news of King Xiang's assassination that day, he immediately convened a court meeting at the suggestion of Empress Wei—mainly because of Gu Shao's request.

The reason why Gu Shao made this request was nominally to say: "The assassination of King Xiang is very important, in order to prevent King Su from seeking an opportunity to refuse to return to the imperial capital, the minister has ordered people to publicize this matter throughout the country, and now there is a panic from top to bottom, if Your Majesty has any measures at this time, I am afraid it will be easy to be taken advantage of!" ”

In fact, Gu Shao was frightened by Emperor Duanhua's previous death, for fear that this time the game that was so easy to lay down would come, and Emperor Duanhua would betray his teammates again - so he didn't ask Emperor Duanhua to cooperate with him at all, just begged this emperor not to make a mess on his eye joints!

So although the emperor was a little idle during this time, Gu Shao himself was very busy, and the busier he was, the more tired he became.

The Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager, and the Empress Dowager are the three identities alone, even if he is the minister who was specially left behind by Emperor Xianjia, it is impossible to say that he turned a blind eye.

The key is that these three do not only have identities, they all need to have means and means, and they need to have people and hands - needless to say, the strength of the Su Wei family is needless to say, even if there is only one queen mother left in her mother's family, Qiu Shuxia, it seems that there is no manpower on the surface, but from before Da Rui Dingding, she was a noblewoman, and now she is the queen mother, and the queen mother is swearing that there is no one available under her hands, will Gu Shao believe it?

Judging from the recent actions of these three people, none of them have good intentions towards Emperor Duanhua.

Gu Shao is now short of time, and people like the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager Su, who are obviously unlikely to persuade him, are too lazy to waste his energy.

I only went to find Empress Wei: "The prince is the eldest son of His Majesty, he is very smart, and sooner or later he will take on the important task of Darui River and Mountain, and I hope that Niangniang will teach him well, so that the prince can become a wise monarch like the first emperor!" ”

The meaning of these words is tantamount to promising Empress Wei that he will take a good look at the emperor and not let the emperor change his trust.

Then Empress Wei can also let her mother's family settle down, stop secretly doing those things that are not there, but help Emperor Duanhua stabilize the throne is serious!

- If you can marry a famous matchmaker, why hook up in private, isn't it?

Empress Wei thanked Gu Shao very politely for his kindness, and then said that she would definitely teach the prince well and make him a good prince who respects teachers and values teaching!

The implication is that even if the crown prince ascends the throne ahead of schedule, the benefits of you, a teacher, will always be indispensable, so you should let go, don't drill the horns of the bull and die for the current emperor!

This is tantamount to a euphemistic admission that the queen has the intention of letting the prince replace Emperor Duanhua now, and even wants to use the master-apprentice relationship between the prince and Gu Shao to win over Gu Shao - Gu Shao's heart sank when he heard this, not that he felt that he suggested that the emperor release Empress Wei, the original intention was to stabilize the throne for the emperor, but he didn't think that it would have fueled the queen's ambitions, but he knew that Empress Wei was cautious, if he wasn't quite sure, even if he didn't listen to his persuasion at this moment, he would definitely be with himself. And not the other way around, trying to turn against yourself!

Empress Wei did this, I am afraid that she would not have her own help, and even if she helped Emperor Duanhua, she was sure that she would get the throne for the crown prince!

"Where does the confidence of the Empress and the Wei family come from?!" Gu Shao finally withdrew from Weiyang Palace full of worries, he felt that he needed to read the news collected these days again, after all, Empress Wei's ability to lift the house arrest was his advice, he could suggest that Emperor Duanhua use the power of the Wei family, how could he not guard against the Wei family's yellow sparrow?

Empress Wei may not have expected this, but she was still full of confidence, Gu Shao felt that something unexpected might have happened!
