Zhuo Zhaojie noticed that Ning Shaobi seemed to be in a particularly good mood when he came back this day, and after Ning Shaobi was on the list, he was ordered by Emperor Xianping to be a living housekeeper, follow the saint around, and record every word and deed. This official position is not high, but it is better to win the moon near the water.

After the accident of Emperor Xianping in May, Ning Shaobi had a meritorious role in saving the driver, and Chun Yu added the post of Lang on the sixth grade of the queen the next day, and Emperor Xianping woke up and had a long talk with the eldest princess of Jiyang, and his mind was difficult to calm down for a long time. Although the eldest princess did not ask for anything for her descendants, Emperor Xianping still used the excuse of saving her to save her husband and promoted her to Dali Zheng under the five grades - the original Dali Zhengjiang Chuzhi was promoted to the governor of Qin.

The main prison case of Dali Temple, Ning Shaobi is quick-minded, familiar with the law of Da Liang, his identity is noble, there is no case that he dare not try, not to mention, he is even more cunning, since taking office, he has vigorously and resolutely dealt with several old cases that have been accumulated over the years - coupled with the notoriety of his youth, the atmosphere in Chang'an has been much cleaner for a while.

It is because Ning Shaobi is very idle during this period of Chenguang, unlike the previous escort, who always had to return until very late. After returning home, the two teased the 'girl' together, played chess and watched the 'flowers', but they were leisurely.

But on this day, Ning Shaobi seemed to be a little overjoyed?

She couldn't help but ask suspiciously.

Ning Shaobi stretched out a little finger at her cheek and said with a smile: "Shi Xiang Zhishi, who do you guess will take the responsibility of Shi Xiang?" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie was surprised because of his happiness, but he was mistaken: "Father? ”

"It's possible for my father to enter the cabinet, but Shousuke is not enough." Ning Shaobi laughed dumbly when she heard this.

Since it's not the Marquis of Yongcheng who wants to enter the cabinet, why are you so happy? Zhuo Zhaojie thought about it, and guessed: "Gao Xianling?" ”

"Why guess him?" Ning Shaobi asked with a smile.

"Gao Xianling and Shi Xiang are sons and daughters, but when Shi Xiang was in office, the saint and the prince asked Shi Xiang who could succeed him, but Shi Xiang refused to say." Zhuo Zhaojie guessed, "If the Shi Xiang supports Wen Zheng, and the Shi family has nothing to do with the Wen family, why can't you speak out?" I am afraid that the prime minister is more in favor of Gao Xianling, but he is worried about the marriage of the two families, and he is afraid that the saint and the prince will think that he has 'selfish' intentions, so he deliberately did not say anything. ”

Ning Shaobi said with a smile: "But he actually wants to choose Wen Zheng, which can also be explained, for example, he is afraid that his in-laws will be unhappy?" ”

"In my opinion, Gao Xianling and Wen Zheng are similar, since Gao Xianling and Shi Xiang are married, how can Shi Xiang not pull his in-laws?" Zhuo Zhaojie said angrily, "When my maternal grandfather was an official in the court, he was more 'beneficial' with the help of Shi Xiang, which shows that Shi Xiang is not a pedantic person!" ”

Ning Shaobi said: "Well, that's right, Shi Xiang is indeed not a pedantic person, he really wants to support Gao Xianling, but he doesn't say it, it's not that he is afraid of the suspicion of the saint, but the saint looked at his face before he ordered Shi Yafeng to be the champion." He was still worried that the prince would be suspicious, but I hurt him, after all, everyone knew that I was very good friends with Shi Wu. It was the time that he refused to say it. ”

"Now that the saint has let the prince choose, what will the prince do?" Zhuo Zhaojie forgot his previous doubts and asked the question at hand curiously.

"The prince is very cautious now, and he must choose Gao Xianling according to the times." Ning Shaobi smiled and said, "But this is just right, otherwise, how could Wen Zheng be willing to take risks?" ”

Zhuo Zhaojie was surprised: "What? ”

"Wen Zheng and Gao Xianling are similar, once one is on the throne, he will definitely do his best to suppress the other, so as not to endanger himself. Before the time was there, there was still a balance between the two, but now that the time is in place, the two of them will definitely have a winner. Ning Shaobi said in an extremely leisurely tone, "But now it seems that Gao Xianling has a big win, so Wen Zheng will probably be able to listen to some words because of this......

At this time, Zhuo Zhaojie didn't quite understand what he meant, and wanted to ask in detail, but a pair of 'daughters' suddenly made trouble again, and the two coaxed the sons and 'daughters', so they didn't have time to mention it anymore.

Until two days later, it was a period of respite, but there was major news in the palace: the prince ran out of the East Palace early in the morning, went to the Zichen Hall to face the saint, and cried in front of the palace that the King of Jin had harbored evil intentions for many years, murdered the prince's eldest son, the king of Yanchang County, and separated the father-son relationship between the prince and the son-in-law of the prince Zhending County, and the intention of 'desire' made the prince lose his sacred heart and replace it!

Such an abrupt change caught many people off guard, and the degree of surprise far exceeded the matter of Tang Shen's life experience mentioned by the king of Yanchang County back then!

…… Although Emperor Xianping and Empress Chunyu are affectionate, they are very old in the end, and the queen does not smell the smell of 'medicine'. When Empress Chun heard the news and arrived from the Penglai Palace, which was only a lake away from the Zichen Palace, Emperor Xianping was already dying of anger by the evidence that the crown prince had already seized the crown prince......

The queen was furious and slapped the prince in public, and urgently summoned the court to sentence Xu Zhen - Xu Zhen was in the Zichen Palace for a day and a night, and in the end, the elderly Emperor Xianping still died suddenly......

After knowing this bad news, Queen Chunyu didn't even snort, and fainted on the Danqi!

Although the prince was slapped by the queen in public, the queen did not have time to scold him for ignoring his father's illness and told the emperor about the brothers' calculations against each other, and the prince directly interpreted this slap as the queen's anger at the king's 'yin' conspiracy.

After all, when the emperor and queen can't take care of things, the crown prince is regent, which is a legitimate thing.

Of course, in order to show the filial piety of the crown prince, he did not mention ascending the throne for the time being, first convened the Ministry of Rites to discuss the burial of the emperor, and then personally went to the queen's bed to 'serve' the soup and 'medicine'. As for whether the queen will wake up after this soup 'medicine' and 'service', it depends on what the queen's means are......

The King of Jin was escorted into the Zongren Mansion less than two hours after Emperor Xianping's great trip, and the evidence of his guilt was really conclusive, and the 'attendants' of the East Palace even secretly searched for his entire plan in his study - even as far back as when he was just married, the King of Jin had already begun to plot for the position of prince.

Because the emperor has always been extremely determined to establish the eldest son as the crown prince, the king of Jin thought that it was difficult to shake the status of the prince head-on, so he retreated to the next best thing, and began to dress up himself according to the emperor's preferences everywhere, and tried every means to destroy the prince's status in the emperor's mind, so as to achieve the goal of replacing him.

The evidence searched out of the Jin Palace's palace shut up the ministers who suspected the prince of slandering out of thin air, although he had not officially ascended the throne, but he was wearing a silk and standing on the top of the Danqi overlooking the civil and military ministers, but there was no figure of the emperor and queen behind him, and there was no inconspicuous little inner 'attendant' next to him, ready to report to the back at all times...... This feeling made the prince feel better than ever.

In his busy schedule, he didn't forget to send someone to visit his beloved son Tang Cheng, telling Tang Cheng that he would never have to worry about being left out in the cold, exiled, and bullied from now on—and even he had to find Lu Ji's body back and bury it! He also wants to posthumously crown this poor and unfortunate Ai Ji!

As for the crown princess and the king of Zhendingjun, the prince is in such a good mood now that he has no time to think about them, but even if he thinks about it, the prince will not take the mother and son to heart. It is true that he swore to the crown princess, but so what? Now that he's about to ascend the throne, he's up to him to decide everything!

Crown Princess...... This Mu Shi should be damned too!

True ...... In the end, it is his own blood and bones, and Tang Xing...... It's just that he really can't love this sister-in-law, he doesn't love his sister-in-law, and of course his grandson is indifferent...... He will not lack heirs in the future.

——Three days after the death of Emperor Xianping, Empress Chunyu vomited blood and died, and his henchman 'female' official He and others committed suicide and were buried......

The coffin on the Hanyuan Hall is still the same, but it has been replaced with a bigger one, and the prince who is full of grief and is kneeling in front of the coffin like a filial son has a lot of thoughts in his heart, and he has a good chance to hold back the urge to jump and rejoice - this Da Liang is his!

Thinking like this, he suddenly felt that kneeling for a long time was also a pleasure.

The clan and the ministers bid farewell to the emperor and empress in order, and Wen Zheng was particularly frightened, but this panic disappeared when he caught a glimpse of the prince's praise and satisfaction when he looked at him.

…… Zhuo Zhaojie can see that Shi Huan's preferred successor is Gao Xianling, where can the saint, the crown prince, and Wen Zheng not see it?

exchanged the secret of King Jin for the position of first assistant, because the crown prince was the prince, Wen Zheng did not feel that this was a betrayal. It was not right to seek the position of prince in the case of a prince, he felt that he was just doing what he should do, the only thing that was a little uneasy was that he didn't expect that after the prince got the news, he used it to stab Emperor Xianping and died!

But this was done by the prince, and it shouldn't be counted on him-Wen Zheng thought.

Now the new emperor is the crown prince, no matter what, he is also thinking about the Wen family......

The trembling figure interrupted the prince's and Wen Zheng's respective thoughts, looking at the eldest princess Jiyang, who was carefully supported by Ning Shaobi and Yongcheng Hou to be able to walk, staggered closer, tears on her wrinkled face - the eldest princess, who was shocked to hear that her brother and sister had died, had almost aged for twenty years overnight, and directly stepped into the last years of the wind and candle, and it seemed that every step had exhausted the last bit of strength in the aging body.

Seeing this old and ruined aunt, who had always been wanton and proud, the prince's eyes flashed with a hint of complexity and happiness, but his face still maintained respect and pathos—like the demeanor of a qualified filial son.

If the eldest princess comforted him, the prince could cry bitterly at any time...... It's just that the eldest princess stood in front of the coffin, staring blankly at the tablet in front of the coffin, but she didn't mean to talk to the prince at all.

Until the eldest princess trembled all over her body and couldn't stand, Ning Shaobi and Yongcheng Hou called in a low voice and hurriedly retired with the prince, the prince was a little inexplicably disappointed in his heart, but he still expressed his generosity with a trace of sadness, and asked the Ning family father and son to help the eldest princess go down to rest.

But to the prince's surprise and surprise, when the eldest princess was about to be helped away, she suddenly turned her head, looked at him deeply, and said simply: "These things, this palace will not care anymore." ”

The prince was slightly stunned, and then figured it out - is this second aunt admitting defeat?

Unfortunately, it was already late.

Lonely's love for him, lone's eldest son, lone's youngest son...... Lone has only one young son left now, and has even endured the indifference and ridicule of the crown princess in the past few months - the second aunt wants to let Lone raise her noble hand with just one sentence, how is this possible?

The prince lowered his head, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a cruel and smug smile......

However, beside him, the dignified and silent crown princess, although she caught a glimpse of this scene out of the corner of her eye, her expression was as calm as water, and there was no "wave" like that.
