In Jiuhua Palace, Emperor Taishang Yongan Emperor Zheng Ming sat on the dragon chair in the study of Longshou Pavilion. Thinking about my life.

At that time, his mother was just an ordinary maid in his father's palace, and she gave birth to herself by fate and became her father's concubine.

However, he was born with a heart disease, and the doctors said that he might not be able to survive. But the father probably considered that he was his first son, so he insisted on healing.

Later, more than 30 years, his father ascended the throne, Da Zheng was unified, and he was made the crown prince, and he has been living trembling for nearly 20 years.

But he failed to reign for more than 30 years like his grandfather, nor for 28 years like his father, but only 12 years and he couldn't stand it.

Until now, Zheng Ming still remembers what Liang Lao, who treated himself, said: "Your Majesty's heart is no longer able to bear heavy state affairs for a long time, and the old minister suggested that Your Majesty arrange for the prince to supervise the country or even ......."

Even the old worshippers who have taken care of themselves for many years did not dare to say this, but they actually had this kind of psychological preparation. Isn't there such a saying, your body knows it yourself.

In the twelfth year of Yong'an, there are only three adult princes who are still alive, and one is unreliable. The more reliable ones are two, but they are both born to one mother. They were all from the imperial concubine Tian at that time.

Of course, there are still a considerable number of Jingning ministers in the court who are inclined to Prince Yizhong from his father's middle palace. I hope that I will pass from brother to brother.

Hehe, dreaming.

At the beginning, his wife Zhao died, and he couldn't wait for himself to ascend the throne, which was the biggest regret in his life. Although she was posthumously crowned as Queen Xiaochunyuan after ascending the throne, she never established a queen during the Yongan period.

Even in order to reduce the pressure of the queen, Emperor Yongan also creatively reformed the system of concubines in the harem. For example, the concubine uses a one-word title, and the concubine uses a two-word title. As for the imperial concubine, it is a two-character title plus a treasure seal.

And the title he gave to the Tian family was the word Yanxi, and at the same time added the imperial concubine treasure seal.

Of course, the reason why the Tian family has such a high position. It's more because the two sons he gave birth to are both outstanding, and Tian himself is just a Chinese.

At that time, he investigated the two sons born to the Tian family, Prince Zhonghe and King Yiping. Emperor Yongan finally decided to hand over the throne to his eldest son, Prince Zhonghe.

First, because he was in poor health in the last few years, the situation was chaotic. It takes an older and hard-nosed monarch to clean up. In contrast, Prince Zhonghe, who is already twenty-five years old and has always been known as the king of cold noodles, and who prides himself on being a lonely minister, is more suitable than the king of Yiping County, who is only eighteen years old and has mellow means.

Second, Prince Zhonghe has always dared to do things and is not afraid of hardships and dangers. Emperor Yong'an knew that he and his father and empress had been in peace for nearly thirty years, and the policy of peace had left many hidden dangers for the dynasty. It takes a bold reform from a monarch who dares to do things.

Third, it is not denied that compared to Yiping, Prince Zhonghe has a deep foundation in the court, and he is not liked by the Tian family in the harem, so he should be easy to control.

Therefore, after considering the above considerations and weighing some other factors, it was finally decided to let Prince Zhonghe ascend the throne with the year name Longzheng.

It was not bad at first, but after three years of Longzheng, the emperor gradually became less willing to listen to the greetings of Jiuhua Palace.

In the Northern Xinjiang War in the fifth year of Longzheng, in order to unify the power, deal with the war, and ensure the peace of the country. He gave all the power to command the army to the emperor.

Relying on Jia Lian's intelligence, the Northern Xinjiang War turned into a great victory in Northern Xinjiang. The prestige of Daming Palace is like the sky, and the emperor is more and more fond of being arbitrary.

But in recent years, my physical condition has gradually improved. The desire for power after an emperor's body can support it will be irrepressible.

So at this time, it is inevitable that there will be contradictions between himself and the son of Daming Palace.

In the past two years, the two parties of Yizhong and Yiping, who were very uncomfortable at the beginning of Emperor Longzheng, gradually stabilized, and the situation gradually stabilized. And that's exactly what you need.

"The Emperor, the Emperor has arrived." The voice of Liang Jian, the great eunuch who served the Emperor, interrupted his thoughts.

"Call in."

"Son greets his father!" After Emperor Longzheng walked into the Longshou Pavilion, he greeted the Emperor Taishang according to etiquette.

Looking at this son's awkward appearance, the Emperor Taishang felt a little funny. As a former son of heaven, he knew very well what Emperor Longzheng was awkward.

The Son of Heaven is a creature whose knees and waist cannot be bent.

"Excuse me, flatten. I feel sorry for you when I look at you. The Emperor waved his hand and pointed to the seat next to him for the Emperor to sit down.

"What did the father call his son over?" Emperor Long Zheng asked questions as soon as he sat down, after all, it has been rare for Jiuhua Palace to take the initiative to summon him in the past few years.

"I'm here for the Jia family's Tieji Temple. What did you do with it? ”

As soon as Emperor Longzheng heard this, his tense heart calmed down, thinking about it, the emperor is for Jia Jing.

So Emperor Longzheng reported the origin of the matter and his handling methods to the Emperor Taishang.

"Father, are you sad about what Jia Jing has done?" Emperor Longzheng compared his heart to his heart, he felt that if it was him, a confidant strategist who trusted him so much and almost relied on him as his heart, he would be very sad.

"Sad?" The Emperor Taishang looked at the gradually maturing emperor in front of him with a smile, and said with a smile: "You are wrong, what Jia Jing did at the beginning was actually solving problems for me." That woman has magical powers, even your imperial grandfather got it.

In that case, neither I nor Yizhong can and have no right to deal with it. Jia Jing took the initiative to take this hot potato at this time for my own good.

Otherwise, if this matter spreads, it will be a big scandal in the heavenly family. ”

Seeing his son, who has always been moody, showing such a look, is so happy.

"I called you, not for Jia Jing, but for you. It sounds like you're thinking about one thing less. ”

"What's the matter?" Emperor Long Zheng's eyes sharpened.

"Tiejian Temple is not just the family temple of the Jia family. There are also the spiritual seats and ancestral tombs of the Jia family, including the three princes of Rongning. ”

"Hiss"

Emperor Longzheng suddenly understood what Emperor Taishang meant. In fact, since he was an adult, Xian Rongguo had been killed in battle, and the Jia family had already entered a period of decline. And Emperor Longzheng himself has not had much contact with military affairs for various reasons, and his understanding of the Jia family is still insufficient.

"Jia Lian has already spoken in the Tiejian Temple, and these people have disturbed Rong Ning's clothes and shrine. Tomorrow morning, it will be a lot more lively. ”

Emperor Long Zheng suddenly felt that he really shouldn't let Jia Lian go so easily.
