Chapter 272: Confrontation between the Emperor and the Queen
Huainan Palace, study.
"What does the father-in-law want to say?" asked King Huainan.
"You should also know the situation of your sons, and now is the time to establish a son. Xia Hai looked up and said straight to the point, "These three sons, who do you like?"
"What about my father-in-law's opinion?" asked King Huainan after a pause.
"The old man's opinion is so important, right?" Xia Hai smiled, "I guess you should have the most suitable person in mind." ”
"But I still want to hear who my father-in-law likes the most. King Huainan said.
"You should know that the old man's favorite since he was a child is Tingjun. Xia Haiyang said, "He is the most talented of your three sons, and he has been smart and likable since he was a child. Now he is trusted by His Majesty, the humerus of the court, and his ability is the most outstanding among the three sons. ”
After a pause, Xia Haiyang said again: "But what I appreciate most is his mind and bearing, he lost in the battle between the second prince and the prince's party, Xuanyuan Hou's power leaned towards the government and the opposition, and the prince had a solid foundation, at this time he was able to stand up and become the target of the prince's party." Foreseeable danger, a little careless end, with his intelligence, it is impossible not to know, but he is still willing to bear this burden, compared to the second child of the drill camp, the second child of inaction, he is also the most admired by the old man. ”
Sighing, Xia Haiyang continued: "Let's not talk about the second brother for the time being, the eldest is the eldest son, the position of the son of this world should have been his, if it is given to the third child, it will inevitably be because of his dissatisfaction, this brother is about to happen, presumably this is not something you want to see." However, the matter of the boss taking refuge in the crown prince also makes me not blame, after all, if nothing else, the prince may be the new king in the future, and he is now loyal to the new monarch and stands in line in advance, which is unreasonable. But in terms of means, after all, it is still inferior to the old three, it depends on what you think. ”
"My worries are the same as my father-in-law's. King Huainan said, "The eldest is the eldest son, and he should inherit the position of the son of this world, but I have been hesitating about this matter all these years, just to see the third child becoming more and more outstanding, and I appreciate him more and more." With his current prestige and status, if he becomes the boss, I am afraid that he will not be able to convince the public. However, it is not that after the establishment of the son, the brotherhood will be in the wall, but there are already signs of this. ”
King Huainan paused and said: "For Ting Jun, with His Majesty's trust in him, even if he is not the prince, his achievements will not be inferior to me in the future, and he will get more things, but the boss is different, even if the prince reuses him, his status in the future will not surpass mine." Therefore, the position of the son of this world is more important to him, but I am afraid that he has long regarded the third child as a competitor and secretly done some things. Especially when he is doing things for the prince now, and the relationship between the prince and the third is self-evident, it is not difficult to say whether he will hurt his brother. ”
"After talking for a long time, I can also hear it in the clouds, who do you want to set up?" Xia Haiyang asked.
"I decided to take a closer look, but what happened today made me determined. King Huainan said, "The relationship between the eldest couple and the East Palace is too close, but the third is on the opposite side, and today's eldest daughter-in-law must have received instructions from there." In the future, if the crown prince falls, the eldest can still save his life, but if the third child is defeated, he will definitely die. As a father, I can't bear to see this happen, so no matter what, I'm going to stop it from happening. Although I don't like government affairs, I will still help the third child. ”
"You want to establish a third child?" Xia Haiyang asked.
King Huainan nodded.
"It is better to make a decision on this matter as soon as possible. Xia Haiyang said.
Imperial Palace, Fengxi Palace.
"The concubine has seen Your Majesty. "The queen knelt down and saluted, when she saw Emperor Zhou before, there was always a touch of eager expectation in her eyes and mouth, but the last time because of her killing Gu Tingjun, Emperor Zhou was desperate and slapped her in front of his subordinates, making her lose face, and from then on, the deepest expectation in her heart has completely disappeared, and now there is too much alienation for Emperor Zhou, a slight mockery, and a superficial respect.
"Get up. Emperor Zhou sat down and said lightly.
"I don't know what kind of wind blew Your Majesty to the Fengxi Palace of the concubines?" the queen asked mockingly, "I thought that Your Majesty would never want to step into the Fengxi Palace of the concubines again!"
"Tang An is back, do you know about this?" Emperor Zhou asked lightly.
"I know!" the queen said, "Su Cheng Anfu has a great fate, and he came back safely and soundly, who in this capital still doesn't know! Presumably Your Majesty should be very happy, yesterday Gu Tingjun also took her into the palace to be invited by Your Majesty, presumably your father and daughter have already recognized each other, that scene must be very touching, but it is a pity that the concubine was not present at the time, and I can't witness Your Majesty's father and daughter recognize each other." ”
"Did you say that?" Emperor Zhou asked coldly, yesterday Orange An refused to recognize him, refused to call him a father, this matter has been blocked in his heart and difficult to dredge, if it weren't for this poisonous woman, how could it be like this?
"Your Majesty is in a bad mood?" the queen raised her eyebrows and asked, "Your Majesty's father and daughter are reunited, Your Majesty's mood should be very happy at the moment, how can you keep a straight face?"
"Tangerine came back alive this time, which is already a blessing from God. I'm here to warn you, and if you dare to make any more moves, don't blame me for being rude to you. Don't ignore my warning, I've tolerated you many times. Emperor Zhou said coldly.
"Huh. The queen smiled self-deprecatingly and sat down, "Your Majesty is very concerned about that woman and that woman's children. However, the concubine is His Majesty's wife, and the crown prince is His Majesty's prince, so why can't Your Majesty share some emotions with our mother and son? If it weren't for the fact that Your Majesty had gone too far, why would the concubine have come to this point? When the concubine and Your Majesty also had affection, why did you come to this point, Your Majesty hates the concubine so much, isn't it a knife in the concubine's heart? Your Majesty never thought that the concubine is also a woman, and the concubine's heart is also fleshy, and the concubine also hopes that her husband can care for me. If His Majesty had treated me and Qin Guifei half of it, the concubine would have been satisfied, so why would she force her to death?"
Emperor Zhou's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he asked, "You finally admit it?"
"This is something that my majesty and I both know very well, why hide it? If you don't admit it, won't your majesty think that this matter was not done by the concubine?" the queen smiled sadly, "The concubine is just unwilling. ”
"You are already the queen, one person is above ten thousand, and your son is already the prince, the future son of heaven. Emperor Zhou said coldly, "What else do you want? What else do you want?"
"Your Majesty really doesn't know what the concubine wants? The concubine just wants His Majesty's heart and His Majesty's care, as your wife, is it wrong for me to ask for this?" the queen clutched her chest and smiled bitterly, "If Your Majesty could give the concubine enough security, how could the concubine be firmly close to the eldest brother, only the eldest brother is strong enough to be able to hold my position, to be able to hold my son's status." Your Majesty asked yourself, His Majesty was very fond of Concubine Qin Guifei at the beginning, if she really gave birth to a prince, His Majesty would not depose the queen, canonize her as the queen, and canonize her son as the prince?"
"Hahaha. The queen smiled and continued. "Let's talk about the crown prince, the prince can become the prince is not His Majesty's preference, but because of the support of my eldest brother, Your Majesty weighed the pros and cons, and was forced to do so. If Your Majesty really loves his son, why should he favor the second prince everywhere and give him a powerful enemy? Even now, is Your Majesty still planning to abolish the crown prince and set up a second prince? What is true to our mother and son, and whether Your Majesty has a clear conscience, Your Majesty should know in your heart. The concubine often thinks that if there was no Qin Guifei, this woman did not enter the palace, and Your Majesty had never met this woman, what would have happened between us? The concubine once loved Your Majesty so deeply, but what Your Majesty gave to the concubine was nothing more than a scar on her body, which made the concubine become an unpleasant poisonous woman, all of this was forced by Your Majesty, and you forced the concubine, all of which you forced!"
"I didn't come here today to listen to your complaints!" Emperor Zhou said coldly.
"Hahaha. The queen smiled and continued. "Let's talk about the crown prince, the prince can become the prince is not His Majesty's preference, but because of the support of my eldest brother, Your Majesty weighed the pros and cons, and was forced to do so.
