Chapter 482: The Four Princes
The emperor looked at the four princes who were held in his arms by his mother, and he couldn't close his mouth with joy, and gave him a warm name when he arrived. Later, he ordered someone to reward Yao Meiren and raised her position as a concubine in the first palace.
And just a few days later, good news came from the palace.
During this time, the noble person who was favored by him was pregnant, and the doctor diagnosed it, saying that it was still a male fetus nine times out of ten.
This news almost made Emperor Le's face radiant, and it also made him more and more confident in his body.
You know, there has been no good news in this palace for many years, and now that you have two at once, how can you not let the emperor firmly believe that he is prosperous in the Spring and Autumn Period?
The fourth prince is still in infancy, and the little child doesn't understand anything, but Yao Meiren understands everything.
She was born gorgeous, and when she was pregnant before, she was also favored in every way. Now that he has given birth to a son, he naturally wants to fight for his son.
Under her gentleness, the emperor's mind gradually changed.
Speaking of which, the second prince is big in the end, although he is pure and good, his qualifications are average. Although this little son has only been born now, if he is carefully cultivated, he may not be a good material.
Anyway, his body is getting better and better day by day, and he will still be alive for a long time in the future, and let Gu Chengyue fight with them in the court first.
As for this throne?
He's still in the day, and no one wants to fight this idea!
......
With the elixir of the Flowing Cloud Dao, the emperor was extremely confident in his body. He watched coldly, and saw that the second prince was much more honest now, so he reminded him.
There is still to be a fight, otherwise, who will fight Gu Qingchi in the ring?
The emperor now has a choice, so he is not in a hurry, he didn't like the second prince very much, but at that time, because he really had no choice, and he was moved by the second prince.
But now, if there was a better one, he would not have chosen such a reckless son to be the emperor.
But these words, the emperor will not say anything. After all, he was still counting on the second prince to make a big deal with Gu Qingchi.
By the time the court Haiyan River is clear, his four princes will grow up, and there may be five princes and six princes at that time, and there will be more opportunities to choose, so that he can choose a king he agrees with for this Western Chu.
The emperor's calculations in his heart were loud, and since October, he has raised the second prince, not only praising him in public, but also secretly mentioning him to let him know who to point the finger at.
Under such circumstances, the second prince gradually reined in his previous appearance and became more and more arrogant.
......
"Master, are we still standing still?"
These days, the second prince is very arrogant, not to mention anything else, just talking about the court, there are not a few things that have been repeatedly rejected by him, and most of the reasons are because the person who wrote the book is Gu Qingchi's party.
Those courtiers couldn't stand it anymore, and Gu Qingchi's henchmen couldn't sit still, if they went on like this, they would have to delay the big thing.
Compared with their anxiety, Gu Qingchi was very leisurely.
He took a sip of tea, pointed to the untouched tea on the table of his henchman, and bent his lips and smiled: "Good Longjing before the rain, try it." ”
Where did the henchman drink the tea, just looking at the appearance of his own prince, he could only take a sip like a cow chewing a peony, and he didn't tell what kind of tea it was, so he put down the teacup.
Seeing his anxious appearance, Gu Qingchi smiled slightly, and said lightly: "What's the hurry, the sky hasn't fallen yet." Even if it collapses, you don't need to carry it. ”
He just wants the second prince to do evil, after all, only if he does his own evil, he can't live.
Seeing Gu Qingchi's calculated appearance, his henchman hesitated and asked, "Does the master have a plan?"
Gu Qingchi didn't reply to him, just put down the teacup in his hand, glanced at the sky and said, "It's going to change, you better go back early." ”
It was dusk, and the weather at the end of October was dark with wind and rain, and the black pressure seemed to be able to drip water.
Hearing Gu Qingchi's words, the man bowed respectfully, and realized: "The lower official retires." ”
Gu Qingchi nodded, waved him away, and sat in the room for a while before getting up and going back to the room.
In late autumn and early winter, this is the time when the weather is most likely to change.
......
These days, everything that confronts Gu Qingchi head-on ends with Gu Qingchi's avoidance.
For a while, it made the second prince almost become a hall of words in the court.
Without him, just because the emperor was sick.
Since taking this pill, the emperor has not been sick for a long time, and he feels that his body is getting stronger and stronger.
At this time, a wind chill crushed him.
For this matter, the second prince was most worried at first. He privately invited the Taoist priest over, inquired about it, and said, "Now is the most important time, you are not allowed to give any moths to His Highness!"
The Taoist priest does know some home remedies and spells, but he can't get on the table, if it weren't for the second prince who has been holding it behind his back, he would have been exposed.
After listening to the words of the second prince, the Taoist priest swore again and again, saying: "Without your instructions, how can the little ones dare to come nonsense? The emperor is really sick this time, and you also know that those medicines are harmful to the body, and they are fine in the short term, but after a long time, there will inevitably be problems." ”
The second prince had known about this for a long time, and it was precisely because of this that he dared to let the emperor eat it with confidence.
After all, now the emperor's eldest son is himself, and those small ones can't become the climate for a while.
If the emperor really lasted for ten years and eight years, then he wouldn't be able to survive it. Therefore, if he can trust himself for the time being, and when he covers the sky with one hand, the emperor's body will not be able to take medicine, and it will be impossible for the emperor to support others at that time.
It is precisely because of this that the second prince is so relieved and boldly set this plan.
Now that things are moving in the direction he wants step by step, he can't help but be complacent.
Originally, his plan was to wait until next spring to make the emperor gradually sick.
Who knew that this time the emperor was sick in advance, he was worried that the emperor's illness was a ghost caused by the head of Liuyun Dao, but now that he learned that this matter had nothing to do with him, the second prince was relieved.
As long as it's not artificial, then it's sick, anyway, he has a clear conscience.
Moreover, the emperor's illness was not entirely without benefits.
At least, after the emperor fell ill, the second prince temporarily got an errand to supervise the country.
When the second prince listened to the government in the imperial study before, the courtiers all guessed that there would be such a day, but now seeing that the second prince was in control of the court in high spirits, no one dared to say anything for a while.
Seeing this situation, the second prince became more and more proud, and his actions became more arrogant.
He knew that the emperor's most popular person was King Anling. Although the second prince couldn't figure it out, it was clear that in the past, the emperor still liked this younger brother the most, but after he was released from prison, the emperor's malice towards King Anling could not be stopped.
But he never thought about things he couldn't figure out, and this time it was the same.
The emperor was jealous of King Anling, so he dealt with King Anling.
What's more, even if it is for the power in Gu Qingchi's hands, he has to deal with it.
......
After the emperor fell ill, his temper became worse and worse, and he didn't know how the Liuyun Dao Chief appeased the emperor, but it made him believe that he was sick because the toxins in his body were being eliminated, and then he would inevitably go to the next level.
If this was said by someone else, the emperor would definitely not believe it.
But this person is the head of Liuyun Dao, and he has poured ecstasy soup on the emperor these days, and his medicine has indeed made the emperor recover a lot, so the emperor has no suspicion at all.
During the emperor's recuperation, because of what Liuyun Dao Chang said, it is inconceivable to be too heavy to meditate and recuperate, etc., he gave the power of the prison country to the second prince after explaining his confidants.
This also indirectly allowed the second prince to grasp the power of the court.
Although he didn't know what the emperor had explained to his henchmen, he also knew that the emperor would not really let it go, so in addition to dealing with Gu Qingchi, the second prince really didn't do anything excessive on his face.
Every day, the emperor could learn from the mouth of the secret guard what the second prince had done, and he was very satisfied.
As Gu Qingchi's own brother, he naturally can't do anything to Gu Qingchi, but this doesn't mean that the second prince can't.
Anyway, it's Gu Qingchi's son and nephew, and he is sick again, what does the second prince want to do at this time, who can stop him?
If Gu Qingchi really cares, then if something goes wrong at that time, he will have to say it!
The emperor's calculation in his heart was very loud, and he quietly watched the two of them fight each other, but he didn't expect that a fire burned on his head first.
......
The old prince of Huainan fiefdom was sick, and the doctors in Huainan were not carefully treated, so the prince of Huainan begged to come to Beijing, hoping to send a few imperial doctors over.
It's just that the old Huainan Wang Xu is old, so he wants to go to Beijing to walk around and see the place where he lived when he was a child.
The old King Huainan was the emperor's uncle, and because he was fascinated by the landscape, when Emperor Gaozu was still alive, he gave him a piece of blessed land and sent it away.
For so many years, the old Huainan King has entered Beijing very few times.
Now that he is old, seeing that he has not lived a good life for a few years, he wrote such a letter to the emperor, and the second prince couldn't make up his mind, so he went to ask the emperor.
Naturally, the emperor could not refute it.
After all, the old King Huainan is seventy years old this year, and it is rare for people to live for seventy years. I don't know how many days this old man will have, but now he is sick and misses his homeland, and if the emperor does not agree, those rumors can scold him to death.
Moreover, the emperor also felt that the old man couldn't make any waves, so he directly agreed.
Although the old King Huainan is in the fiefdom of Huainan, there is also a mansion in this capital. Uninhabitable and another matter, this mansion is cleaned from time to time.
Now that he has come to Beijing, he is also obedient, not gossiping with those powerful people, except for turning around his homeland, he honestly asks those imperial doctors to diagnose his pulse.
Who knew that this diagnosis and treatment would cause something big to happen.
Those imperial doctors found out that the old Huainan King had a high degree of poison in his body, and it was obvious that he had been poisoned!
This can be regarded as stirring up a thousand waves, the emperor's condition has been reduced a lot recently, and when he learned of this, he personally went to visit his uncle in Huainan Palace, and at the same time ordered the imperial doctor to investigate strictly to see who wanted to harm his uncle.
The old king of Huainan was also frightened when he got the news, so he hurriedly ordered someone to strictly investigate, and finally checked all the food, clothing, housing and transportation, and there was nothing wrong.
At this time, the personal eunuch who followed remembered that his own prince was taking Yangrong pills every day.
The Yangrong Pill was offered by a Taoist priest, and the prince ate it every day, so that he could prolong his life.
