Chapter 136: The Emperor's Grandson
It was already late when I came back from the restaurant.
Shen Qianwei insisted on sending her off, and followed behind on horseback all the way, until he saw her enter the mansion gate before turning around and leaving.
Listening to the sound of horses' hooves moving away, Su Junning felt inexplicably relieved.
It's the kind of security that you know that reliable people are nearby.
After this emotion swelled in his heart, he couldn't help but hook his lips and smile.
"Miss, the slave maid just asked, but the second lady hasn't come back yet." Nan Su trotted to follow.
Just now she went to say a few words to the little guy guarding the door.
Su Juning put away his smile, and a trace of doubt flashed on his face.
"Haven't come back yet? I'm too late, what did she do? ”
After watching the fireworks, Shen Qianwei took her to the night market for half an hour, which was regarded as a walk to eliminate food, but I didn't expect that Su Zhiyi hadn't returned for so long.
"The slave doesn't know, maybe it's to send Miss Qin home?" Nan Su muttered.
Su Junning narrowed her eyes, "It's okay, it's none of my business, I'm going back to rest, I'm tired today." ”
Nan Su nodded and helped her back to the Hidden Jade Pavilion.
However, Su Zhiyi didn't come back too late, and it took about a stick of incense to arrive.
Look at the good mood.
Nothing was said all night.
The next day, when Su Junning was still immersed in his sleep, there was an incident in the court, which made Emperor Jianning angry on the spot.
Some ministers proposed to establish the emperor's grandson.
It is to establish King Chen's son-in-law as the prince.
But King Chen's sister-in-law has just turned three years old this year, not to mention the suspicion of the lord Shaoguo, even if Emperor Jianning is willing to cultivate the emperor's grandson, but he still has three adult princes under his hands, and after a hundred years, can his grandson's throne be secured?
This is completely a joke about Jiangshan Sheji.
The most important thing is that Emperor Jianning inevitably suspects that the emperor and grandson are on the throne, and he will also be a puppet in the future, and King Chen is still in power behind him.
That would inevitably lead to chaos.
So when someone raised this matter in the early court, Emperor Jianning scolded that official, and that official was indeed the wings of King Chen.
This is even more like King Chen's greed for power and refuses to let go, which makes Emperor Jianning's distress about him a little wiped out.
After all, when King Chen asked to abolish the crown prince, Emperor Jianning was still pleased that he was thinking about Beidi's Jiangshan Sheji.
After the next dynasty, everyone had different thoughts, and did not dare to stay and discuss, so they dispersed.
The news soon reached the harem, and when the queen learned about it, she immediately became anxious.
"The emperor hates not knowing the overall situation the most, why did Yan'er make this fool, you hurry up and pass on the word to him, let him quickly think of a way to clear up the relationship, otherwise it will hurt the relationship between father and son!"
"Don't worry, Niangniang, you are just recovering from your illness, don't be too emotional, slave and maid will go." Tanxi, who was waiting on the side, hurriedly responded.
What they didn't know was that there was already a commotion in King Chen's Mansion at this moment.
It turned out that the idea of this emperor grandson was not what King Chen meant, but that Princess Yin herself privately contacted King Chen's wings and asked him to propose it in the court.
This time, King Chen, who has always been good-tempered, turned his head back and kicked the Yin family who was kneeling on the ground.
"Do you know what you're doing?! What you think is beautiful, you can't be the queen anymore, you want to be the queen mother directly, ah? Even if my father can agree, can my three younger brothers agree! ”
Yin cried a handful of snot and tears.
"Your Royal Highness, the concubine is also thinking about you, if you didn't save the emperor, how could you lose an arm, and now everything you have is gone, and the concubine also wants to earn some money back for you, they all said that the king of Jin would be made the crown prince, and the concubine was unwilling for you!"
"You're not unwilling for me, it's you who are unwilling!"
King Chen roared angrily, the green tendons on his forehead bulged, and his eyes were about to split.
"How could I have a stupid and greedy woman like you as a wife!"
From the prince to the prince, he lost everything he once had, the supreme right and the platform to display his ambitions, the accumulation of many years, all the hard work and hard work, all in vain.
King Chen himself is unwilling and hateful, but he is rational and knows that he can grasp the love and pity of Emperor Jianning and live well, and he can also give himself and his descendants a good way out, otherwise he will be a prince with a broken arm, and what kind of good life can he live.
I didn't expect the Yin family to add such a big mess to him, which really made King Chen angry, and the depression and grievances and resentment for many days all broke out.
After teaching the Yin family, King Chen grounded him, and then wrote an excerpt to Emperor Jianning to ask for his guilt.
But after Emperor Jianning was angry, he calmed down and felt that this matter was not like the prince's style, so he sent someone to investigate.
In the end, I learned that it was Yin's handiwork, and I immediately disliked this daughter-in-law.
Not only him, but the queen also learned from King Chen that the matter of establishing the emperor's grandson was planned by the Yin family, and her face turned black with anger.
"It's the palace that picked someone to look at it wrongly, and chose such a wife for Yan'er, and it was just before, but now Yan'er can't stand the slightest bit of involvement, and the Yin family must not be allowed to continue to be so scourge!"
Tanxi frowned, "Princess Chen is indeed too unspeakable, she is so bold as to do such a thing." ”
"She's not only bold, she's stupid!" The queen's face was pale, she glanced at the cup in her hand, and her eyes were cold, "The Yin family doesn't understand the rules too much, Tanxi, you go to King Chen's Mansion again and teach her well." ”
The latter understood, and after saluting, immediately withdrew.
Next.
There was news in King Chen's mansion that Princess Chen was seriously ill and was bedridden.
After knowing this, Emperor Jianning did not react, he guessed that it should be the queen's handiwork, and he also agreed with it.
If the Yin family is not good, then abolish it and replace it with a good one for King Chen.
Even if King Chen is missing an arm, he is still the pride of the sky.
The ministers of the court and the central government are naturally not interested in the backyard of the Chenwang Mansion now, they just know that it is impossible to establish the emperor's grandson, so the next prince must be produced among the other three princes.
King Jin is the most promising, so for a while, there are many people who rush to curry favor, but King Jin is very low-key and cautious, ignoring everything, and still acting the same as before, as if he is not interested in the position of the crown prince.
However, he was not interested, Emperor Jianning wanted to consider the future of the Beidi Kingdom, the crown prince still had to be established, and King Jin was indeed the most suitable candidate.
It's just that King Jin still needs to be honed now, after all, no matter how good he is, he has not been cultivated as an heir since he was a child, and some things are still lacking.
However, other places can be slowly honed, and this matter of starting a family, Emperor Jianning feels that it can't be delayed any longer.
The dignified prince, how can there be a reason to keep it for his deceased wife.
Moreover, arranging a good marriage for King Jin can also help him succeed to the crown prince, which is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone.
Therefore, Emperor Jianning pondered, and after waiting for the future, he asked the queen and the biological mother of the King of Jin, Concubine Xian, to choose a wife with a good family background for the King of Jin.
This news is not a big deal, and naturally it spreads.
For a time, there were official eunuchs with school-age women in Beijing, and they were all eager to try.
