Speaking of why Wei Guogong did not deal with Prince Jing, it is actually not complicated.

Of course, Duke Guo of Wei did not only side with King Su. He once wanted to betroth his daughter to the eldest son of King Jing.

However, there was too much internal fighting in Prince Jing's palace, and the relationship between Prince Jing and Princess Jing was not harmonious. The main point of conflict was the appointment of the crown prince. Prince Jing preferred the capable eldest son Li Hu, but the princess did not agree. Li Ying is her biological child.

Just because he had not decided on a heir apparent, Duke Wei had never made up his mind on whom to marry his daughter to.

Later, after Li Xu returned to Beijing and started to show off his talents, he quickly fell in love with Meng Wanfeng. Wei Guogong once approached him and wanted him to give up Meng Wanfeng and marry his daughter. Mr. Xu also said that he would allow Li Xu to marry Meng Wanfeng. Wan Feng was offered as a concubine, but Li Jun refused without even thinking.

Duke Guo of Wei was angered by Li Zhu's attitude. He felt that the child was as stubborn and pedantic as his father.

It happened that at this time, Li Zhao found an opportunity for Xu Youzhong to meet Song Yaxin.

Song Yaxin was a super beauty whose appearance was not inferior to that of Song Qingyue. Xu Youzhong fell in love with her at first sight and immediately told his father that he wanted to marry Mr. Song Ge's eldest daughter.

Mr. Xu thought about it and thought that this was not a bad idea. After all, the situation was still unclear. It seemed like a good idea to maintain a vague or vague connection with Prince Su's Mansion, so he agreed.

However, this does not mean that he is on the side of Prince Su. In fact, he is still considering betrotting a legitimate daughter to the second son of Prince Jing.

In fact, both Li Zhao and King Su knew that the current Mr. Xu was unreliable. They had long been prepared to prevent him from treading two boats, and now they were secretly trying to sabotage the marriage.

As for how it was destroyed, we will know when Song Qingyue returns to the capital in the next spring.

Li Zhao doesn't tell Song Qingyue now that Wei Guogong wants to rely on both sides because he is afraid that she will worry.

The emperor's grandfather's health was getting worse and worse. King Su never thought that the emperor's father would care about him, and Li Zhao thought so too.

Everything is prepared for the worst case scenario.

But the emperor didn't like Prince Jing either. He was too straight-tempered, didn't speak well, and always opposed the old emperor.

Now it seems that Prince Yu, the ninth prince with mediocre abilities but very filial piety, is the most pleasing to the old emperor, but Prince Yu also has a fatal weakness: the emperor now hates Concubine Chen and the Duke of Jing.

The emperor's disgust for Concubine Chen is different from his disgust for Concubine Meng Shu. Concubine Meng Shu is stupid, while Concubine Chen is bad.

If the emperor wants to appoint King Yu as his lord, he will probably let Concubine Chen die of illness in advance and remove the authority from Duke Jing's palace. However, Concubine Chen and Duke Jing will not be willing to commit suicide.

Of course, the emperor would not easily attack Duke Jing. As Song Jianming's influence in the civil service group gradually grew, he also needed Duke Jing's palace to balance the Song family in the court.

Before getting rid of the Jingguo Dukefu, another force needs to be established to replace the Jingguo Dukefu.

He is getting older, his body is not as strong as before, and his control over the court is weakening year by year. At this time, the emperor needs this kind of balance even more to maintain the sense of security of a late emperor.

As the private chief adviser of Prince Su's Mansion, Song Jianming's strategy for Prince Su was to make the emperor hesitate until the last moment.

As long as the emperor insists on not appointing a crown prince, Prince Su's palace only needs to go all out to deliver a critical blow at the last moment, and things will be much easier for them in the future.

Song Qingyue didn't know any of this. Men would not let her, a female family member, participate in the decision-making of such a matter. Song Qingyue herself didn't care too much. There were still more than two years left. In the original work, King Su's ambition was only exposed at the end.

Before that, Prince Jing’s Mansion will face off against Prince Yu’s Mansion and Prince Shan’s Mansion.

The capital city was bustling at this time.

First, at the end of September, when Li Zhu and Meng Wanfeng were getting married, a family named Cui from Jiujiang Prefecture suddenly appeared in the capital. They came to Prince Jing's Mansion and claimed to be Cui Huifei's natal family.

They pulled an old lady with white hair and white hair and shabby clothes and knelt at the door of Prince Jing's Mansion. They kept saying that the old lady was His Royal Highness Prince Jing's maternal grandmother and that they were His Royal Highness Prince Jin's uncles and aunts. They said that Concubine Hui and Jing

His Royal Highness is ungrateful. Just because he is afraid that his family will embarrass them, he has not looked for them in these years, leaving his family to be poor, hungry and cold.

Li Zhu's wedding was messed up, and Princess Jing was quite happy. She was afraid of chaos in the world, so she entertained the Cui family and took the Cui family to the palace to meet Empress Hui. The result was really

Concubine Hui’s family back then!

The incident in which the family broke up and caused a big fuss at Prince Jing's wedding caused a huge uproar in the capital. For a time, all the people in the capital were talking about it with excitement.

This made the old emperor extremely angry. It was simply throwing the royal face on the ground for others to trample on, seriously affecting the royal reputation. The most important thing for the royal family is face, isn't it?

When Cui Huifei was young, there was a flood in her hometown. Her family was displaced due to the flood and they could not survive. She was sold by her parents into slavery.

From the moment she became a slave, she lost contact with her parents and family.

How come so many years have passed and there has been no contact between the two parties, then the mother and brothers suddenly appear again?

Although Concubine Hui is beautiful, she is a coward and confused person. It was because she was easy to handle that Empress Xu dedicated her to the emperor and asked her to help him win favor and gave birth to the fourth prince.

For so many years, she had been living without a sense of existence, and now that this happened suddenly, she was also confused.

The emperor was so angry that he had a headache again and became very irritable. He scolded Concubine Hui severely and sent Prince Jing back to the capital to deal with the matter.

Meng Wanfeng was extremely depressed when her wedding was disrupted. She was now deeply in love with Li Zhu, and she wanted to hold a perfect wedding with Li Zhu and marry him happily.

In her previous life, she was a side concubine, and she was carried in from the side door of the palace on a water-red sedan. She did not pray to heaven and earth, and did not drink Hexin wine. She just set up a table for her on Wangfu East Road in the evening, and returned with Li Zhao.

His then-eldest concubine Shen Baozhen and his side concubine Ning Yueyao ate together and even knelt down to offer tea to Shen Baozhen. Ning Yueyao even faced her with a stinky face.

That day, she was really embarrassed.

She originally wanted to make up for the shortcomings of her previous life.

But in this life, her wedding was still disrupted.

She felt that someone must be causing trouble behind the Cui family! The first thing Meng Wanfeng suspected was Prince Su's Mansion.

But this matter really has nothing to do with Prince Su’s palace. Li Zhao was unjust, and Prince Su was even more unjust.

The fourth child had achieved military exploits, and Li Hu's wife had won the favor of the emperor for helping him treat his head ailments. King Su guessed that there were people more restless than him, so he didn't need to do anything.

Look, aren't some people starting to get anxious now?

King Su is enjoying watching plays recently.

So Meng Wanfeng checked and checked, and found out that it was the Chen family's fault. This time, it turned out to be the work of the Duke of Jing.

Last time, she hadn't taken revenge on the Lu family and the Xiao family, but here the Chen family took action again. Meng Wanfeng sat alone in the study, reflecting on herself, had she always paid too much attention to Prince Su's palace?

She reminded herself over and over again that this life was different and she could no longer be disturbed by the experiences of her previous life.

As soon as the matter calmed down, the emperor slapped Concubine Hui and Prince Jing, and decided to give them another sweet date. First, he sent a decree saying that Li Wei had made meritorious service in fighting the Tatars this time. He was not young anymore and had not fought with Prince Jing.

The couple discussed that they would make him the eldest son of Prince Jing. They also said that Li Hu was destined to Princess Mongolia, so they wanted to grant a marriage to Princess Yunying and Li Hu, and let Princess Yunying be Li Hu's concubine.

Meng Wanfeng didn't have time to discuss the countermeasures with Li Zhu. This upright, dedicated and stubborn man ran directly to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, knelt down in front of all the courtiers and begged the emperor to take back his life, saying that he would rather not be the heir apparent.

Accept the concubine.

The emperor lost face this time and was contradicted by his grandson in public. This was even more annoying than what happened with Concubine Hui!

It's just a concubine. If you don't like it, don't favor it. He actually went to the Palace of Supreme Harmony to defy the decree in front of everyone. The emperor didn't care what promise he made to a woman. The emperor only knew one grandson he valued.

Refute him in public and slap him in the face!

He ordered someone to beat him up, throw him into the clan's mansion, and ordered him to copy the "Book of Filial Piety" a hundred times and reflect on it for half a year.

Even so, the emperor still didn't calm down. He suffered from a splitting headache for two or three days. He endured it without recruiting Meng Wanfeng into the palace to help him treat him. He was really angry with Li Zhu.

Half a month had passed since this incident, and the emperor was still getting more and more angry when he thought about it, and finally became angry with Li Zhao.

The emperor realized what had happened. The boy was digging a hole for his cousin!

Okay, let Li Zhao fill the hole he dug.

So the old emperor summoned Princess Yunying into the palace and told her that the man you like is fighting for the position of prince and heir apparent, and he doesn't want to marry you. I'm not a bad grandpa, and I don't want to embarrass the younger generation in marriage.

However, I have an imperial grandson here who is also very good. He is already a prince and heir apparent, and he is quite handsome. Let’s see if you are willing to marry him.

Although Princess Yunying is a Mongolian woman, she is still a princess and she also wants to save face!

Li Wei publicly resisted the decree and said that he did not want her. She was extremely uncomfortable, thinking that she would just go back to the grassland in despair, but the emperor actually gave another candidate.

Li Zhao, she knew that she had seen this man before. Although he was a bit cunning, he was handsome! She still remembered his handsome and elegant appearance when he was drinking, and she couldn't help but feel itchy. But if Li Zhao didn't want to be himself

what to do?

She hesitated and said carefully: "Your Majesty, the Great Emperor, do you want to ask Prince Zhao first?"

The emperor's face darkened and he immediately said: "No need! Not everyone is as ignorant, disobedient and unfilial as Li Zhu. Zhao'er is the most filial and obedient. He will listen to everything I say. Besides,

He still appreciates you very much, and he praised you a lot in the book, so you two are destined to be together. That's it, I'll send someone to invite your parents, and let's discuss the marriage."

The Tatars were beaten very badly this time, and many leaders had long since wanted to sue for peace. The leader of the Borjiji tribe was a member of the peace-seeking faction. His territory was closest to the Zhou Dynasty, and he suffered the most from the fight between the two sides.

Originally, he didn't agree with fighting the Zhou Dynasty. He couldn't understand what kind of cow dung the Tatar Khan had in his head. He dreamed about restoring the Yuan Dynasty all day long, and he didn't even look at how many years had passed.

He was a practical person. In fact, if Da Zhou could keep his people fed and drunk, he wouldn't mind kneeling down to the Emperor of Da Zhou.

The Tatar Khan knelt down, and the Zhou Emperor knelt down as well. What's the difference?

However, the decisive factor was that Wala saw that the Tatars were weak after being beaten by the Zhou Dynasty. He wanted to take the opportunity to bite the Tatars and dominate the grassland. This made the Tatar Khan a little careless and had no time to deal with them in the southern part of the grassland.

of leaders.

So the leader of the Borjiji Tribe heard that one of his daughters had fallen in love with the grandson of the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, and the emperor was going to grant him a marriage, so he asked him to discuss the marriage. He thought that this was a good thing, not that the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty gave a betrothal gift to

Are you all very proud?

In fact, his other daughters and nieces were also pretty good-looking, so he immediately took his daughters and nieces of suitable age, several brothers, several sons of marriageable age, and the Han wife to Dazhou to discuss marriage.

.

The leader of Borjiji, who knew the current affairs, was willing to surrender to the Emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, allowing the Zhou Dynasty to build forts on his territory, and allowing the Zhou Dynasty to station two thousand troops. Similarly, the Zhou Dynasty agreed that he could use cattle and sheep to fight against the Zhou Dynasty.

In exchange for tea, salt and grain, he was given the title of Borjiji County Prince and a symbolic salary of one thousand taels of silver and one thousand husks of wheat was given to him every year.

The next step was to talk about marriage. The emperor gave the Tatar princess, whose nickname was Yunying, a formal title of Princess Yunying, which was called Princess Yunying.
