Liu Cheng played the right class: "Exactly, the third son of Prince Ren is smart, knowledgeable, and steady, and he will take over him, and he will not insult the lintel of the palace." ”

Zhang Gang looked at these two singing and harmonizing, and felt very aggrieved, but he couldn't refute it, there was indeed no one else in Prince Ren's Mansion who could take over on his behalf.

Dong Jincai listened to the information from Liu Cheng's report, and was very happy in his heart, as long as Prince Ren's mansion fell into the hands of his sister, in six years, he would not move half of the gold and silver mountains over? Not to mention half, it is only one or two percent, which is enough for him to marry his grandson's daughter-in-law.

Concubine Dong heard the news from the Dong Mansion the next day, when she couldn't help but giggle, hearing her aunt and grandmother laughing like a chicken, Mother He really didn't dare to hold back, and laughed along, she was laughing, laughing at Concubine Dong for not seeing the sky, but, although it was Mrs. Dong's side, she didn't dare to provoke Concubine Dong, so she had to cover her mouth with her hands, bow her head and force it down.

In any case, about the matter of Prince Ren's mansion, the emperor still called Qian Jun and notified him in advance.

"Substitution?" Qian Jun was stunned for a moment, "No need, right?" Qian Zhang's son is very smart and can fully support the palace. ”

"But the ancestral family law, you have to be sixteen years old to do it, unless there is really no one in the family."

How can Qian Jun benefit Concubine Dong? He thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, if Princess Naren knew that her son's title was attacked, the consequences would be very bad, and now, the Great Black Mountain Horse Farm contributes a large number of good horses to Jurong every year, and that is Princess Naren's marriage, and now there are a few and half of her people stationed in the Great Black Mountain Horse Farm, can't you make special arrangements?" ”

The emperor shook his head: "It's not a big deal, I don't want to break the rules." ”

Qian Jun saw that he really couldn't say it, so he continued to tap the potential in his own home, hoping to jump Qian Hao over, and soon, he really had an idea: "Your Majesty, who should be taken on behalf of you?" ”

"Who else is in your house?"

"Your Majesty, I should ask Chaoyang to be crowned the son of the world, and now he has to take over his father's title, so he has to put it aside for the time being."

"Your son's substitution?" Emperor Yongchang was very surprised.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I didn't want to, I had no choice but to follow the family law of my ancestors, I can't help it, Chaoyang is your own grandson, and it is natural for him to inherit it."

Emperor Yongchang had no reason to refute Qian Jun.

"Your Majesty, you have to be very cautious in this matter, you first send someone to inform Princess Naren, and suddenly make a decree, which is easy to cause her to rebel."

Emperor Yongchang nodded: "You're right, Princess Naren is not a Han from China after all, she doesn't understand etiquette, and she is also irritable. ”

Qian Jun saw that the emperor was not angry, and he understood his suggestion very well, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

"Prince Nanhai, this is your family matter, why don't you go and tell Princess Naren?"

Qian Jun shook his head: "Your Majesty, let's let the officials of the Ministry of Rites make a break first, and let people spread the news, so that Princess Naren is a little mentally prepared." ”

"It's good!" Emperor Yongchang is as good as a stream.

Regarding who will take the title of Prince Ren, the emperor mentioned in the early dynasty that several officials from the Ministry of Rites and the Zongren Mansion, and even the imperial history were involved, Qian Kuan and Liu Cheng naturally proposed to let Qian Hao take the throne, but Zhang Gang and a few others suggested that the emperor should take special affairs, and Qian Zhang himself should take the title, and no one thought of Jin Jin, the grandson.

In fact, Zhang Lan is very clear, but now that Jin Jin is his grandson-in-law, he and the Prince of Nanhai are trying their best to eliminate the turmoil caused by the marriage of the two families, so naturally they dare not make any more limelight and attract the attention of the ministers of the court.

Fortunately, the marriage of Dong Jincai and Shi Zonghan distracted the emperor's attention, otherwise, Zhang Lan really didn't know what things would have turned out of.

Zhang Lan used to teach in Zongxue, and also served as the head of the Hanlin Academy, there are so many disciples of his disciples, he wants to keep a low profile, but the disciples don't know his mind, a master of the Zongren Mansion, his son used to be a classmate with Jin Jin, the relationship between the two is not bad, their father and son have a deep memory of Jin Jin's grandson, and the father also went to the Zongren Mansion to confirm, so he wrote an excerpt and handed it to Zongzheng: "Qian Chaoyang is the grandson of Prince Ren, and it is appropriate for him to inherit the title, not to mention what to inherit." ”

Zong Zheng is a smart person, he has seen from the alternation of imperial power from generation to generation in the Jurong Dynasty that people like Dong Jincai do not end well, at this moment, he naturally supports Jin Jin's substitution, he not only handed over the subordinates' recitals, but also added his own recommendation recitals.

Dong Jincai heard that someone proposed to let Qian Jun's son take over, so he was furious: "Qian Jun's guy is too hateful, he is already a prince, and his son still wants to take the title of the ancestor on his behalf. ”

Curse to curse, Dong Jincai still hurried into the palace, intending to persuade the emperor not to let Qian Chaoyang attack the lord.

Princess Naren heard that her son could not attack the lord and must be attacked by Qian Hao first, so she was anxious at that time, but she was a woman, isolated, aggrieved, and had nowhere to complain, what should I do?

Qian Zhang is a child after all, and he wants to enter the palace to find the emperor, so Princess Naren blocked it, and his son's temper will not only fail to enter the palace, but it will also be counterproductive.

"Mother, I'll go and ask the Prince of Nanhai, I think he is very good, when he guides me to practice martial arts, he has no reservations, and he also teaches me how to arrange troops when he fights."

Although Princess Naren also thinks that Qian Jun is good, in front of interests, she doesn't dare to say that Qian Jun is good.

"Mother, it's already like this anyway, it's not much worse."

Princess Naren nodded, what she was most worried about was Qian Hao's attack, Concubine Dong's mother and son were not good things, especially when there was a Dong Jincai on the side.

Qian Jun was in the study, and Qian Zhang walked in with an angry and frustrated face: "I've seen the Prince of Nanhai!" ”

"Yo, Brother Zhang, why do you have such an expression? Is the sky falling? ”

Qian Zhang was even more sad when he saw him like this, and he thought that the other party really cared about the property of the palace, but he was not afraid, although he was only ten years old, he still mustered up the courage and asked seriously: "Prince of the South China Sea, can't I really attack the lord?" ”

"Someone reminded the emperor that our ancestors also set such rules, and now the matter is a foregone conclusion."

"However, what should I do if the attacker smuggles away the assets in the house?"

Qian Jun nodded: "Although there are records in our house, if he is good and indiscriminate, you really can't help it." ”

Qian Zhang drooped his shoulders in frustration: "Prince Nanhai, you are my eldest brother, and you are famous for your wisdom, you will not be out of the question." ”

Qian Jun nodded: "I have a way, I'm afraid that Brother Zhang is still dissatisfied." ”

"What's the solution?"

"Let Jin Jin take the title on your behalf, you are the son, he is the grandson, it is natural to inherit the title on behalf of you, and also, we are not uncommon in the house, Jin Jin raids the lord, the general affairs of the outer court, and the princess designates a reliable person to take care of it, you can check the accounts regularly, and the inner courtyard is scarce, and it is still handed over to the princess to take care of, I can only do this, I don't know if you can accept it?"

Qian Zhang was stunned for a moment, he had a good impression of Qian Jun and Jin Jin, and felt that this would be better than Qian Hao's attack, but although Qian Zhang was small and had a lot of eyes, he still didn't say anything to death: "Prince Nanhai, I'll go and tell my mother and concubine, and then I'll give you a reply, okay?" ”

"Go ahead."

Princess Naren listened to her son's story, and couldn't help but groan, she really didn't know Qian Jun very well, lest she drive wolves at the front door and tigers at the back door.

"Mother, so far, it can only be like this, the child thinks, the prince of the South China Sea is much better than Qian Hao, I heard that he took out tens of thousands of taels of silver for the affairs of northern Xinjiang, the emperor later rewarded a Zhuangzi to our family, the father should have given him the title deed, the father listened to Princess Liu's bewitchment, and now the income of the Zhuangzi is still counted in the public, just this one, more than ten years down, is more than 100,000 taels of silver, and people did not say that they want to go back."

"That's right, Prince Nanhai is very tolerant, otherwise, your father's body won't be able to last for so many years."

"Mother, do you think that the Prince of Nanhai's proposal to let his grandchildren inherit it will be successful?"

"It's a nail in the coffin, he is the grandson, and his name is justified, besides, this inheritance right is first of all the grandson's, there is no grandson, and there is no grandson, it is the grandson's."

Princess Naren and her son were thinking at home, but Dong Jincai was blowing in front of the emperor: "Your Majesty, no matter what, there can't be two princes in one family, this is too showy." ”

Zhang Lan reminded Dong Jincai very unhappily: "Lord Dong's words are wrong, Prince Ren and Prince Nanhai are still two princes." ”

Dong Jincai's mouth squirmed for a long time, and he couldn't say a word.

Zhang Lan's mouth was also poisonous, he felt that it was not enough to relieve his anger, and further said: "Your Majesty, Prince Ren has a concubine and grandchildren, and he can't let his concubines inherit him, otherwise it will be contrary to the code of ethics." ”

Dong Jin knew that today, there was no way to win, but he still wanted to take a look: "Your Majesty, Qian Hao is known as a virtuous person in the capital, and his writing is brilliant, so he should have been given some honor." ”

Gao Tingfeng pouted disdainfully: "The Prince of Nanhai was still twelve years old when he was a Xiucai, Qian Hao's fame is so big, he is only a Xiucai at the age of sixteen, and it took another three years to be promoted, which is far worse than the Prince of Nanhai." ”

Dong Jincai glared at Gao Tingfeng, and Gao Tingfeng was angry: "Your Majesty, Lord Dong is too close to avoid suspicion, not only recommending his nephew, but also asking for credit for Marshal Shi of Northern Xinjiang a few days ago. "The emperor was originally taboo about the marriage of Dong Jincai and Shi Zonghan, and at this time, he couldn't help but be full of anger, and he looked at Dong Jincai with the corner of his eye. Dong Jincai saw the emperor's appearance, and immediately felt a chill behind his back, he tried his best to form a gang, but he didn't expect to commit the emperor's taboo this time: "Your Majesty, Weichen is dedicated to the court, not only relatives, Marshal Shi has made a great contribution, that is true, and it has nothing to do with Weichen asking for credit for him." ”
