The art of checks and balances has always been used very well by the emperor.

Among the princes, the three princes were used to balance the crown prince, and when the three princes were weak, the four princes were cultivated to balance the princes.

In the harem, Concubine De is used to balance the princess.

Among the courtiers, there was a balance between civilian officials and military generals.

used Yongping Hou to balance Wang Can before, but now is it necessary to replace Luo Shangshu and Dingguo Gong to check and balance the Wang family?

The Queen Mother said, "Since the emperor wants Zhaoping to be the crown princess, if the mourning family gives you and her a marriage, how can the emperor agree?"

When the Empress Dowager's authority was not as big as before, the decree had to go through the imperial study before it could be sent.

The emperor will face the harem and firmly grasp it in his own hands.

Zhao Chengyuan smiled: "If you make two edicts, the imperial brother can't refute them all, right?"

"Two Ways?"

"The son-in-law and the prince's uncle and nephew are making such a big fuss, it is reasonable for the queen mother to make a decree to cut off future troubles. You have given two decrees to give marriage, one for Erchen and Zhaoping, and one for the prince and Danyang."

The Queen Mother rubbed the jade Ruyi, her eyes full of thought.

There is no doubt that the emperor easily refused to let the prince and Danyang get married, no matter which of these two decrees becomes, it will only be beneficial for the two to get married.

The Queen Mother sighed, "Although it is a blessing to have many children and grandchildren, there are also troubles when there are many sons. The mourning family is messing around with you like this, and the emperor is afraid that he will be angry when he knows it. The palms of your hands and the backs of your hands are full of meat, how can you let the mourning family be good."

Zhao Chengyuan smiled and comforted, "Brother Huang is filial piety, where would he be angry with your mother." If there is any anger, he came to Erchen, and Erchen came to Cining Palace to move the rescue soldiers, and the imperial brother must have known it now."

The Queen Mother glanced at him with disgust, "Scolding you, won't the mourning family feel distressed?"

Zhao Chengyuan smiled, "Erchen made a mistake today, and he should have been scolded."

The Queen Mother sighed, "I can't beat you if I beat the little mourner, I can always let you get your wish."

She got up and ordered to prepare the Yi decree, and then took the queen mother's phoenix seal and stamped it, and handed the Yi decree to Zhao Chengyuan.

"Take it yourself, and if you can't make it, it depends on your creation."

"The son-in-law thanked his mother for his fulfillment."

Zhao Chengyuan took the edict and walked out of Cining Palace.

The Imperial Study.

Emperor Qingming looked at the fold, didn't look up, and said lightly, "Why is the seventh brother here?"

Zhao Chengyuan stepped forward, and as he walked, the two imperial guards in the imperial study looked vigilant, and pressed their hands on the hilt of their swords.

Zhao Chengyuan stood beside Emperor Qingming, put the Yi decree on the dragon case, and said with a smile, "The queen mother has made two Yi decrees, the imperial brother will take a look."

Emperor Qingming opened the edict and looked at it one by one.

He pushed Yi Zhi aside, his face was gloomy, "Seventh brother has good skills, let the queen mother cooperate with you like this."

Zhao Chengyuan said with a smile, "The queen mother has always loved her child."

The queen mother may think that the emperor will not do anything to him, at most she will reprimand two sentences, but this matter is not as simple as an uncle and nephew fighting for a woman.

He can lift a sword to kill the prince, and he can lift a sword to kill the emperor.

Since there is such a good reason to detain him as seriously injured the prince, where will the emperor let it go easily.

Emperor Qingming sneered, "How can the seventh brother be so confident, thinking that I will spare you?"

He took a few notebooks from the side and slammed them on the dragon case, "It's just half a day's work, it's all about impeaching you. Seriously injured the prince, seventh brother, you are going to move the country, how can you let me spare you!"

Zhao Chengyuan looked at the folds unhurriedly, "If the younger brother doesn't go to the Hengxian Pavilion, does the imperial brother know what the final outcome will be?" The Hengxian Pavilion has been stalemate for a long time, and if someone has a heart to send a letter to the Duke of State, he will provoke it......

He raised his eyes to look at Emperor Qingming, "The temper of the Duke of Dingguo is much better than that of his younger brothers, but it can't be ended by seriously injuring the prince. Is it possible to wash the Zhenguo Mansion in blood?"

Emperor Qingming glanced at the book that Zhao Chengyuan had spread out, it was General Cen's, the uncle of the third prince.

This recital is slightly different from the one next to it, it is clearly impeaching the king of Jin, but it is actually alluding to the crown prince

Immorality.

On the same day, General Cen also went to the Zhenguo Mansion for a banquet. He only needs to secretly deliver the letter, and he can reap the benefits of the fisherman.

Dingguo Gong killed the crown prince, and it was the three princes who benefited. Or, Dingguo Gong did not kill the prince, and he was head-on with the prince, and there was no possibility of marriage, and it was the three princes who benefited.

Even, Dingguo Gong washed the Zhenguo Mansion with blood and eradicated the maiden power of Wang Guifei, and it was the three princes who ultimately benefited.

And the final result, Dingguo Gong will definitely be deprived of military rights and even beheaded by the government, and General Cen, as a military general, can still benefit from it.

The three princes were grounded because the county lord of Zhaoping discovered that the incense was abnormal, Concubine De was snubbed, and there was a grudge between General Cen and the Dingguo Mansion.

With so many benefits, General Cen was willing to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Emperor Qingming rubbed his jade wrench, and the wind and clouds in his eyes changed.

If General Cen really took advantage of the loophole, he might lose the prince in one day, as well as two important ministers, one man and one martial arts.

The balance between the court and the central government was broken, and the balance between the prince and the harem was also broken, and the three princes were dominant, and no one could balance him at all.

Emperor Qingming said lightly, "In this way, I have to thank the seventh brother."

Zhao Chengyuan neatly put the fold code aside, and said with a smile, "If the imperial brother wants to be grateful, then approve the queen mother's decree."

Emperor Qingming said, "Since the seventh brother is going to relieve the siege, he can only take the prince away from Zhaoping, why do you want to make such a big move? I don't think the majesty of the royal family is anything in your eyes."

Zhao Chengyuan paced to the side and sat down, sighing, "The younger brother is thinking of asking to marry Zhaoping, but the Duke of Dingguo is quite hostile to the younger brother, and it is difficult for the younger brother to go to the Mansion of Dingguo. If the younger brother doesn't make the movement bigger, so that the Duke of Dingguo has a good impression of the younger brother, how can he hold the beautiful woman?"

"Revenge, the seventh brother Qingfeng Langyue is arrogant, is he the one who does this kind of thing?" Emperor Qingming looked at Zhao Chengyuan, "I think that this master who kills people with a heavy sword is the real seventh brother."

Zhao Chengyuan smiled, "Brother Chen is not a master, that is, he is better at light skills. The prince held Zhaoping with one hand and refused to let go, so that his younger brother had the opportunity to hurt him."

"Wei Xiao's kung fu is rarely matched, but you can hurt him with a single sword."

Zhao Chengyuan smiled, "When he was fighting against the prince of Dingguo, he was exhausted, and he was defenseless, so it was not difficult for the younger brother to hurt him. If you were someone else, you could hurt him."

Emperor Qingming got up and paced back and forth in the imperial study.

The setting sun shone obliquely, low on the ground.

The dust that slowly shook in the light and shadow was torn to pieces from time to time as Emperor Qingming moved.

"The seventh brother's chess skills have deceived me for so many years." Emperor Qingming raised his eyes to look at him, "Could it be that the martial arts of the seventh brother are also like the chess skills, to the point that I can't imagine?"
