Haijiao pouted and said, "This is all caused by Sun Guifei." That kind of femme fatale, in order to clear the way for her son, has made the emperor's son almost in trouble, and the emperor can still continue to spoil her......" His voice was lowered very low, "It's not much worse than the faint king!" ”

Haitang was very curious, pestering her brother to ask, and Haijiao introduced her sister to the situation of the sons under the knee of Emperor Deguang.

Emperor Deguang had eight sons and two daughters. The princess didn't mention it, the eldest prince died at a very young age, and the second prince was the son of Sun Guifei, who also died before the full moon. The third prince is the mourning prince of Empress Wu. Next are the four princes from Lu Zhaorong, the five princes from Concubine Liu Shu, and the six princes from Sun Guifei.

The situation of the Seven Princes is unknown. Outside the palace for many years, I didn't know that there was a seventh prince, until the virtuous concubine Xu gave birth to a little prince, ranking eighth, and the outside world knew that there was a seventh prince in the palace, guessing that it might be born to the palace and had died. Sun Guifei has favored the harem for many years, and it is not surprising that she is not willing to let the world know about the existence of the Seven Princes.

The third prince was originally the eldest son, and was burned to death in Kunning Palace in the twentieth year of Deguang with Empress Wu. After that, some people asked the emperor to appoint the six princes as princes, but because the six princes were not the eldest princes, many officials wrote to oppose them, and they did not do so.

Then the emperor began to rebuild the Kunning Palace. It is rumored inside and outside the palace that Sun Guifei is about to be sealed. Once she ascends the throne and becomes the queen of the main palace, the sixth prince will be the rightful prince, and no one can stop him from establishing the prince.

But before the Kunning Palace was repaired, the fifth prince died inexplicably, and Concubine Liu Shufei went crazy for this, cursing Sun Guifei for killing her son, and then was demoted to the cold palace by the emperor. Sun Guifei also asked the emperor to cure the Liu family's crimes.

Although the Liu family is not prominent, it is a scholarly family with a history in Beijing, and its reputation has always been very good. Empress Dowager Zhou, the kings of the clan, the six Shangshu and Tao Yue all opposed the emperor's punishment of the innocent Liu family, and even in the cabinet, not everyone agreed with Sun Gelao, and the matter did not work out. Concubine Liu Shu even kept her concubine position, and her madness also improved, and she could cry clearly and beg the emperor to find out the cause of the death of the five princes.

The emperor promised her.

However, Concubine Liu Shu died soon after, and her death was a little sudden, so that rumors began to circulate in and out of the palace that Concubine Sun killed people and killed her mouth. Therefore, the royal family of the clan opposed the emperor's appointment of Sun Guifei as the queen, and the matter was temporarily shelved.

The reconstruction of Kunning Palace is still going on, but it has slowed down and is no longer rushed.

In the twenty-fifth year of Deguang, Kunning Palace was repaired, but because the Empress Dowager Zhou and the clan relatives never let go, Sun Guifei was unable to move the palace after being sealed. However, she was in charge of the phoenix seal at this time, and she was only one name away from the queen, so she was not in a hurry. It is said that she once led the six princes to visit the newly built Kunning Palace, and she was very confident that she would soon become its new owner.

Even Elder Sun Ge began to hint at the Ministry of Rites that it was time to prepare for the ceremony.

If Sun Guifei cannot be crowned, the six princes cannot be established as princes. And in front of him, there was only the fourth prince.

Lu Zhaorong was afraid that his son would follow in the footsteps of the five princes, and he would end up with the same fate as Concubine Liu Shu, so he wrote a letter with the four princes and took the initiative to ask the emperor to let the latter out of the inheritance clan, and the emperor agreed. After the four princes succeeded, the six princes born to Sun Guifei were the only princes.

At this time, the sixth prince suddenly fell ill and died. There is no prince under the emperor's knee who can inherit the unification.

The emperor fell ill with grief, and the four princes had all been officially named the princes of King Ji, and they were clamoring to return to the sect - he was not stupid, once the return to the sect was successful, he would be the only son of the emperor, and he would become the next emperor at any time, how could this kind of good thing be let go?! At this time, he only hated himself for succeeding too early, but if he knew that the sixth prince would die soon, he would never take the initiative to ask for a succession!

And Empress Sun Guifei also broke off her son and died, and she also made a fuss, so angry that the emperor's condition worsened. The queen mother reprimanded Sun Guifei, took the emperor into Cining Palace to take care of her, and refused Sun Guifei's visit, and it took a month to take care of her son.

At that time, the palace man Xu Shi, who was in charge of serving the sick, was made a concubine afterwards and gave birth to the eighth prince the following year. Until the death of Emperor Deguang, there was no new heir in the palace.

Therefore, everything Sun Guifei did to clear the way for her biological son to establish a prince ultimately benefited the later Eighth Prince. The Eighth Prince can now be said to be the only candidate for the crown prince, and no one can shake his position at all—if it weren't for Emperor Deguang's infirmity.

The emperor was sick and weak, and the officials were worried that once he had a good one, the young eighth prince would succeed to the throne, and the lord Shaoguo would be suspicious, and the society would be uneasy.

King Ji's son wanted to return to the sect, but because he was older, there were still many officials who supported him.

King Ji took the initiative to show favor to Sun Ge Lao, Sun Ge Lao persuaded the noisy Sun Guifei, and let Ji Wang Shizi marry his own granddaughter as his wife, and since then he has become the most powerful supporter of the other party.

With him in his way, the emperor was stunned and failed to establish his youngest son as the prince. In his previous life, it was not until the emperor was seriously ill and dying that he decided to kick Sun Ge Lao out of the cabinet, and transferred his cousin Tao Yue into the cabinet, so that he successfully canonized the eighth prince as the prince.

However, after the new monarch succeeded to the throne, the prince of King Ji has always refused to give up, colluded with Sun Ge Lao, and kept making trouble for the new monarch. In the end, the Sun family was planted, and the prince of King Ji did not end well. King Ji's throne finally returned to the head of his own son.

Speaking of which, King Ji is really a smart man. The emperor gave him an heir, and he obediently accepted it. The heir refused to recognize him as a cheap father, and he was clamoring all day long to go back to the palace to be the prince, but he also turned a blind eye to it, and let the son of the world toss it. He didn't interfere, and he forbade his sons to help his heirs - in order to inherit their father's prince, the sons of King Ji actually hoped that the prince would succeed in returning to the sect. When the new monarch took power and disposed of the son, he also took the initiative to tie up the "son" to the Zongren Mansion. The new monarch reciprocated the favor and canonized the new prince he liked, and the people of King Ji's mansion could continue to enjoy wealth and leisure.

Hai Jiao said with feeling: "In my previous life, I was often sent to monitor the little princes of King Ji's Mansion, and I admired King Ji's ability to teach his son very much. There are many examples of unscrupulous descendants in the palaces of the clan, but King Ji's Mansion does not mention the successive sons in the palace, and the other little princes are very well-behaved and never cause trouble. If it weren't for King Ji's godson, based on the dislike of the Empress Dowager Zhou and the emperor for him, he would have grabbed his family and cured seven or eight crimes, where could he still enjoy wealth and wealth for decades, and he would still be alive and well when I died? ”

That period of time can be said to be a rare leisure time in the life of the reef's previous life as a secret agent, there was no danger, and every day I just watched King Ji's sons enjoy life. When he changed his mission, he never encountered such a good day again.

Haitang glanced at her brother speechlessly, and did not comment on his feelings. She only focused on the information he had just revealed, and selected a few key pieces of information from them.

After Sun Guifei failed to seal the post, in order to clear the way for her own son's prince, she probably killed the five princes who were ranked first, and frightened the four princes to invite themselves out of the Jiji Palace, resulting in only one heir left by the six princes under the emperor's knees.

The six princes died young, the emperor had no heirs to succeed to the throne, and the four princes who succeeded wanted to return to the sect, but they have not succeeded. The Empress Dowager Zhou introduced the virtuous concubine and gave birth to eight sons to the emperor, and there was a successor to the throne.

Sun Guifei has no son, and the future of her and Sun Ge Lao is worrying, it is estimated that they are worried that after the eight princes supported by the Empress Dowager Zhou ascend to the throne, they will not have a good end, so they will support the return of the four princes to the sect, focusing on a "national dependence on the long monarch", and opposing the succession of the young lord.

Judging from the fact that the emperor never let go of his mouth and let the prince of Ji return to the sect, he still prefers his youngest son to succeed to the throne. Does he hate his fourth son who asked to change his father too much, or does he have a dislike for the Sun family's father and daughter?
