One zero four, crying and trouble

She asked Jian Huaizhen: "Eldest princess, do you think the queen mother will object to this matter?" Will she disagree with the emperor's appointment of Wan Zhen'er as the queen? Wan Zhen'er is the person who came out of the Empress Dowager Zhou's side. ”

Jian Huaizhen said confidently: "Yes, that Wan Zhen'er is indeed a native from the side of the Empress Dowager Zhou. But what about it, although Empress Dowager Zhou and Wan Zhen'er have also shared weal and sorrow. But now Wan Zhen'er is no longer Wan Zhen'er of the past, or Wan Zhen'er of the year was originally planning to go to today. So I believe that the Empress Dowager Zhou herself understands this matter in her heart. Besides, Wan Zhen'er is just a palace maid next to the Empress Dowager Zhou, but the emperor is the son of the Empress Dowager Zhou. Don't you understand which is more important than the other? ”

Listening to Jian Huaizhen's words, he immediately understood the seriousness of the matter. She praised Jian Huaizhen: "The eldest princess, you are really wise and calm, and you are very thoughtful about things. ”

Jian Huaizhen raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, okay, now is not the time to talk about this, let's hurry up and go to Yongshou Palace." ”

"Yes."

So Zero followed Jian Huaizhen and the two of them to Yongshou Palace.

At this moment, the Empress Dowager Zhou is watching a song and dance performance in the Yongshou Palace.

When she heard that Jian Huaizhen was coming, she was very surprised, because Jian Huaizhen had never interacted with the people of this Eternal Longevity Palace.

But after thinking about it, she still asked Jian Huaizhen to come in. After all, Jian Huaizhen is an elder, and she has a golden jade scepter in her hand, so what she said in the palace still has a certain prestige.

Although she is the queen, if she offends Jian Huaizhen, the golden jade staff in Jian Huaizhen's hand can beat the unconscious king, the traitorous minister, and anyone in the six palaces.

If she goes against herself, it's not a joke.

Although the Empress Dowager Zhou was reckless, she was not stupid.

After Jian Huaizhen came to the Yongshou Palace, the Empress Dowager Zhou hurriedly invited her to sit down.

Jian Huaizhen sat down, and the Empress Dowager Zhou sent someone to serve tea, Jian Huaizhen took a sip of tea, opened his mouth slightly, and said to the Empress Dowager Zhou: "Empress Dowager Zhou, this palace came today, there is something to discuss with the Empress Dowager Zhou." ”

"Oh? The eldest princess has something to discuss with the mourning family, presumably the eldest princess has already discussed it with the Empress Dowager Qian? Empress Dowager Zhou asked with a slight displeasure.

She knew that in Jian Huaizhen's mind, Empress Dowager Qian's status far surpassed herself

Since she came to the Yongshou Palace to discuss with herself, she must have already discussed a result with the Empress Dowager Qian, and she just came to inform herself again.

This thought of hers made her feel very unhappy, and she felt that Jian Huaizhen had snubbed her.

Who knew that Jian Huaizhen smiled and said: "That's not true, I didn't discuss this matter with anyone, I just went straight to Yongshou Palace to discuss it with the Empress Dowager Zhou." After all, the Empress Dowager Zhou has always been the emperor's biological mother, and there are some things that still need to be decided by the Empress Dowager Zhou. ”

When Empress Dowager Zhou heard this, her face suddenly showed a hint of joy.

said with a smile: "That's what I said, the emperor was always conceived and born in October. For the emperor's affairs, who is more concerned about the mourning family? The eldest princess is here today, what is going on, you might as well talk about it. ”

Jian Huaizhen saw that the Empress Dowager Zhou had become more pleasant, so he smiled slightly and said: "This matter is also a big deal, since the Empress Dowager Zhou is in a hurry to ask, then the palace will talk to the Empress Dowager Zhou slowly." ”

"Okay, princess, what's wrong?" When Queen Zhou saw Jian Huaizhen speak, her attitude was very serious, as if something really happened, and she was also very anxious.

"Today, the emperor invited me to the Qianqing Palace, and there is something to discuss with me." Jian Huaizhen's words made Empress Dowager Zhou feel slightly interesting and displeased.

After all, the emperor is also his own son, but no matter what happens, he doesn't discuss it with him, but with Jian Huaizhen, how can she be happy in her heart.

But she still didn't show her displeasure, after all, this Jian Huaizhen came to discuss the big things in the harem with her.

"The emperor came to me to discuss with me about the canonization of the queen." Jian Huaizhen said unhurriedly.

"What? Canonized queen? The emperor wants to make the queen? For such a big matter, how could the emperor not ask the meaning of the mourning family? Empress Dowager Zhou's anger faintly appeared on her face, which showed that she felt very disapproving of Zhu Jianshen's approach.

He has always been his queen mother, but he discussed it with Jian Huaizhen.

"Okay, okay, Empress Dowager Zhou, don't be angry about this matter first, you listen to the palace first. If you were the one who consulted with the emperor today, I'm afraid you would be even more angry than this palace. ”

Jian Huaizhen's words made Empress Dowager Zhou feel very strange, she knew that Jian Huaizhen didn't know what to show on his face whether he was happy, angry, sad or happy on weekdays.

Now I heard Jian Huaizhen say that he was so angry with the emperor that he felt a little strange.

Then he asked, "Oh? What did the emperor do? The eldest princess was so displeased. Although the eldest princess told the mourning family, the mourning family will definitely help you teach the emperor a lesson. Although he is now the Son of Heaven, I am also the mother who gave birth to him and raised him, am I? ”

Jian Huaizhen said slowly: "Does Empress Dowager Zhou know who the emperor thinks of as the queen?" ”

Jian Huaizhen's eyes looked at the Empress Dowager Zhou like a sharp sword, and the Empress Dowager Zhou was stunned when she saw Jian Huaizhen's terrifying gaze.

Immediately asked in surprise: "The queen candidate in the emperor's heart won't be Wan Zhen'er, right?" ”

The reason why Empress Dowager Zhou thought of Wan Zhen'er was because the emperor had been so fond of Wan Zhen'er recently.

In this harem, everyone is rumored that the emperor likes a woman eighteen years older than him, and the harem is full of wind and rain.

And before that, Empress Dowager Zhou also called Wan Zhen'er over and specially asked her about it.

Now, Jian Huaizhen came here again and said to himself that there must be no doubt that the queen candidate in the emperor's mind is Wan Zhen'er.

"Yes, it is really the mother of the Zhizi Mo Ruo, the Empress Dowager Zhou really knows everything about the emperor, the emperor actually wants to canonize ten thousand nobles as the queen, how can this be done." Jian Huaizhen said uncommittently.

Queen Zhou saw that Jian Huaizhen's face was completely opposed and affectionate, so she followed Jian Huaizhen's words and said: "Although it is said that this Wan Zhen'er is a person from the side of the mourning family, the mourning family has always loved her very much. But this matter of establishing a queen, the mourning family must not agree. Not to mention that Wan Zhen'er is eighteen years older than the emperor, just saying that Wan Zhen'er did a lot of things in the harem before, the mourning family can't tolerate her. ”

In fact, Empress Dowager Zhou has no opinion on Wan Zhen'er.

The death of Empress Wu before, although it made her feel that Wan Zhen'er was a little wrong.

But after all, Wan Zhen'er was trained by herself, and if there is anything wrong with her, then there is something wrong with herself.

What's more, when she summoned Wan Zhen'er before, Wan Zhen'er was respectful to her.

She has no opinion on Wan Zhen'er herself, but Wan Zhen'er's age is quite complaining.

After all, Wan Zhen'er is now thirty-six years old, older than her own age, how can she become the emperor's queen?

If this matter spreads, wouldn't it be laughing off the big teeth of the world.

At that time, everyone said that the emperor was in love. Isn't it ridiculous that the mother complex actually likes a woman twice as big as herself?

Therefore, the Empress Dowager Zhou would not agree to let Wan Zhen'er become Zhu Jianshen's queen no matter what.

And she listened to Jian Huaizhen's words, Jian Huaizhen was obviously very angry at Zhu Jianshen's proposal.

Since Jian Huaizhen didn't agree either, she didn't agree either. Of course, she has to express her thoughts, and then they can connect in a line to fight against the emperor together.

Jian Huaizhen saw that Empress Zhou immediately showed her position, and she felt a little more comforted in her heart.

She said to the Empress Dowager Zhou: "No matter what, this palace can't allow this kind of thing to happen, this matter spreads, isn't it ridiculed by the world, it is an accident that Wan Zhen'er became a nobleman, and now she wants to be the queen again, how can this be made." ”

Jian Huaizhen's words caused a resonance in the Empress Dowager Zhou, and the Empress Dowager Zhou said repeatedly: "What the eldest princess said is very true, but I don't know if the eldest princess has a suitable candidate for the queen in her heart?" If so, why not listen to it? ”

Jian Huaizhen nodded slightly and said, "Yes, there is a person in the heart of this palace, and this person must be the Empress Dowager Zhou's favorite." ”

"Oh? Who is it? Empress Dowager Zhou raised her eyes and said.

Jian Huaizhen said slowly: "The person mentioned by this palace is the concubine Wang Shu recommended to the emperor by the Empress Dowager Zhou before. Previously, Empress Dowager Zhou recommended Concubine Wang Shu to the emperor, and Empress Dowager Qian recommended Emperor Wu to the emperor. At that time, because Queen Wu was very dignified and virtuous, and this Wang Shufei was too beautiful. So with the support of the palace, the emperor chose Empress Wu as the queen. But now that Empress Wu has passed away, it should be the turn of Concubine Wang Shu to be the queen next. ”

When Empress Dowager Zhou heard Jian Huaizhen say this, she couldn't help but be reminded of the past.

She said to Jian Huaizhen with some resentment: "Now that the matter of the eldest princess, you should finally understand that the mourning family will not harm your son, right?" The candidate I recommended to the emperor was indeed a good one. ”

Jian Huaizhen was speechless by her rebuttal, and for a while, she didn't know what to say.

Empress Dowager Zhou felt that she had gained the upper hand in words, and she didn't want to continue to scheming with Huaizhen

So she said to Jian Huaizhen: "Princess, since you like Concubine Wang Shu in your heart, then this matter is much easier." The queen candidate in the heart of the mourning family is also Wang Shufei, this Wang Shufei was born in a famous family, she was born very beautiful, and her age is comparable to that of the emperor. After these days of getting along, the mourning family feels that she is a virtuous and virtuous person who has no quarrel with the world, and I don't know what the eldest princess wants. ”

Jian Huaizhen also nodded slightly, and these days of getting along, Jian Huaizhen also thinks well about Concubine Wang Shu.

Jian Huaizhen felt that although Concubine Wang Shufei was very young, she was not like Queen Wu, who understood righteousness, was virtuous and virtuous, and thought about things so thoroughly.

But you are dignified and virtuous in this Wang Shufei, she does not have such a deep city in her heart, things are relatively simple, and she is very quiet and has no quarrel with the world.

This is rare in the harem.

Although Jian Huaizhen was skeptical about whether she could take on the heavy responsibility of being in charge of the Six Palaces.

But looking at these six houses, there is no one more suitable for the queen than her, because there are only two people in these six houses who are a little more powerful now.

One of those two people is this Wang Shufei, and the other is Wan Zhen'er.

It is impossible for Jian Huaizhen to agree to let Wan Zhen'er be the queen no matter what, so the only candidate for the queen is this Wang Shufei.

And the Empress Dowager Zhou also meant this in her heart, not to mention that this Wang Shufei was the preferred candidate of the Empress Dowager Zhou at the beginning.

It was the Empress Dowager Zhou who let her enter the palace, so the Empress Dowager Zhou naturally couldn't have any bad impression of her.

After Jian Huaizhen finished discussing with the Empress Dowager Zhou, she said to the Empress Dowager Zhou: "Next, the palace is going to Yanxi Palace to meet the Empress Dowager Qian, and discuss this matter with the Empress Dowager Qian, I don't know if the Empress Dowager Zhou wants to go with the palace?" ”

Empress Dowager Zhou and Empress Dowager Qian have always been suspicious, and back then, Empress Dowager Zhou almost killed the Empress Dowager.

She was very angry with the Empress Dowager Qian in her heart, so she tried to avoid meeting with the Empress Dowager Qian on weekdays.

Empress Dowager Qian is blind and disabled, and she never overdoes anything in the harem, which makes her very relieved.

Now, seeing Jian Huaizhen asking herself, she shook her head and said, "I won't go, please go to the eldest princess, and help me say hello to her." ”

Jian Huaizhen smiled slightly, walked out of Yongshou Palace with a band and piece, and went straight to Yanxi Palace.

When she arrived at Yanxi Palace, Empress Dowager Qian heard that Jian Huaizhen was coming, and she was overjoyed and hurriedly greeted her in person.

He saluted Jian Huaizhen and said, "The arrival of the eldest princess is really disrespectful. ”

Jian Huaizhen hurriedly helped the Empress Dowager Qian to sit down and said: "Empress Dowager Qian is too polite, you are the dignified Empress Dowager, why should you be courteous to this palace." ”

"That's not what I said, although the mourning family is the queen mother, but the eldest princess, you are always an elder." Empress Dowager Qian said humbly.

Jian Huaizhen has always been very fond of the Empress Dowager Qian, and she knows that the Empress Dowager Qian is a very good person.

She said to Empress Dowager Qian: "I came to Yanxi Palace from Yongshou Palace, and I came to Yanxi Palace to find Empress Dowager Qian because I want to discuss something with you." ”

"Oh? What the hell is going on? To work the eldest princess. The Queen Mother looked at Jian Huaizhen in surprise

Because she heard that Jian Huaizhen first came to the palace of the Empress Dowager Zhou, and now she has come to her palace, it must be a very big thing.

Jian Huaizhen said slowly: "This matter is very important, it is related to the establishment of a harem, the emperor once asked me to go to the Qianqing Palace before. He told me that he wanted to be crowned queen, and I learned from his words that the candidate he wanted to ornate was Wan Zhen'er, and I went to the Empress Dowager Zhou just now to discuss this matter. ”

"What? Is it Wan Zhen'er? Empress Dowager Qian frowned slightly, obviously she was very dissatisfied with this matter.

Although Wan Zhen'er had saved her before, after experiencing the affairs of Empress Wu, Empress Dowager Qian had a deeper understanding of Wan Zhen'er.

She felt that Wan Zhen'er was a scheming person, and she was not as indisputable as she saw on weekdays.

Therefore, she was opposed to the canonization of Wan Zhen'er as the queen.

What she can't accept the most is Wan Zhen'er's age, Wan Zhen'er is twice as old as the emperor.

Looking at the history of the past and present, there is no such thing.

If such a person is canonized as a queen, how can he block the mouths of the world, so Empress Dowager Qian told Jian Huaizhen all the doubts in her heart.

Jian Huaizhen said solemnly: "Yes, I talked to the Empress Dowager Zhou before, and the concerns in the hearts of the two of us are the same, both think that Wan Zhen'er is not enough to take on the responsibility of the queen. But now that the emperor wants to canonize Wan Zhen'er, what should I do about this matter? ”

Empress Dowager Qian thought about it, and she asked Jian Huaizhen in turn: "What does the eldest princess think?" ”

Empress Dowager Qian knew that Jian Huaizhen was resourceful and very insightful when she saw things, so she turned around and asked Jian Huaizhen.

Jian Huaizhen slowly shook his head and said, "This matter, this palace still has no idea for the time being. Now that the emperor has made up his mind to make this Wan Zhen'er the queen, he will tell us the elders about this matter anyway. In this case, we are all opposed to the canonization of Wan Zhen'er as the queen, so let's wait for the emperor to come and speak to us. As long as the emperor opens his mouth to us at that time, we will oppose it together, and there is no way to measure the emperor. ”

"Okay, whatever the princess says, I'll do it, we're willing to take the lead for the princess."

Jian Huaizhen had long expected that Empress Dowager Qian had the same idea as herself, and now she was very relieved to see that this was the case.

So after she spoke a few words to the former queen, she said some things, and then she went to Wan'an Palace and did not mention it.

After coming back, Ling Luo said to Jian Huaizhen with worry: "The eldest princess, the matter of you going to see the Empress Dowager Zhou and the Empress Dowager Qian must reach the emperor's ears sooner or later." In the future, if the emperor fails to appoint Wan Zhen'er, maybe he will blame you. ”

Jian Huaizhen frowned and said, "Since the emperor wants to blame me, then I can't do anything." Since this palace is the eldest princess of the Ming Dynasty, she should focus on the affairs of the court and the affairs of the six palaces, how can she let the emperor act arbitrarily for his own selfishness? ”

Hearing Jian Huaizhen say this, his face was suddenly full of solemnity, and he replied, "Yes." ”

After Jian Huaizhen discussed with the empress dowager of the two palaces, he stayed in Wan'an Palace every day, just waiting for the emperor to come up and tell him about this matter.

Who knew that after Zhu Jianshen talked to Jian Huaizhen, he also felt that the canonization of Wan Zhen'er was very inappropriate.

Although he fell for Wan Zhen'er's head-lowering technique, he has a heart for Wan Zhen'er, but he is not confused in big things.

He felt that if Wan Zhen'er was canonized as the queen like this, he was afraid that it would not only arouse the opposition of the empress dowager of the two palaces and the eldest princess of Emperor Jian Huaizhen, but also cause a riot among the ministers, and make the world laugh.

When the time comes, where will the face of himself and the royal family be placed, and how can he be worthy of his ancestors and ancestors.

So after thinking about it, he decided to go to Wan Zhen'er to explain this matter clearly, so when he arrived in Yonghe Middle School that day, he told Wan Zhen'er about this matter.

When Wan Zhen'er heard him say this, her eyes immediately turned red, and tears flowed down.

She lay on the bed and cried, and she didn't say a word to Zhu Jianshen.

Zhu Jianshen didn't expect Wan Zhen'er to react like this, Wan Zhen'er's reaction caught him off guard.

He said to Wan Zhen'er: "Okay, okay, Zhen'er, since the matter has come to this. There's no way around it. It's not that Lian doesn't want to canonize you as the queen, but the queen mother and the eldest princess of the two palaces are opposed, what can I do. ”

"Could it be that your majesty, have you begged the queen mother and the eldest princess of the two palaces? Now when I come back, I will tell my concubine that you can't canonize your concubine as the queen, it's clear that the emperor doesn't want your concubine to be your queen at all. ”

"Why don't you want you to be the queen of Lian, although Lian didn't continue to ask the queen mother of the two palaces, but he had already invited the eldest princess to the Qianqing Palace to probe her in private. The eldest princess completely disagrees with this matter, and what can be done. What's more, the Empress Dowager Qian was originally with the eldest princess, and no matter what the eldest princess said, she was willing to obey. Since the eldest princess is against this matter, the Empress Dowager Qian will naturally not agree, the Empress Dowager Qian will not agree, and the eldest princess will not agree, how can you say that Lian can canonize you as the queen? ”
