Heaven, when it is separated, it happens to be "two people". The so-called Tiansheng is naturally the two saints. It is very common for the emperor to call a saint. For example, the emperor also has an nickname called "Sage Shang", but Liu E named Zhao Zhen's year name as Tiansheng, and his intention was actually very obvious, which was to rank himself with the emperor.

If Liu E only had the above meaning, it would be nothing. After all, she was the queen and had real power. However, in history, the queen or empress dowager who dared to be saints had another person. This person was the famous Wu Empress in history, Wu Zetian who later became emperor. In other words, Liu E's saints was actually a very taboo.

However, I don’t know what Liu E thought. Anyway, the year name of “Tian Sheng” has been decided. Even though Wang Zeng and other ministers objected, she was reluctant to change it. Wang Qinruo was worthy of being the one who promoted her. At this time, she was also standing on Liu E’s side, which made Wang Zeng and others so angry that they were itchy.

Li Zhang actually rarely cares about what happened in the court, but he has to care about the year name, because since the year name "Tian Sheng" was proposed, he obviously felt that Zhao Zhen became more silent.

Li Zhang could probably guess what Zhao Zhen was thinking, and Zhao Zhen had wanted to say something to him several times, but he still didn't say it when he was talking. Although Li Zhang saw it, Zhao Zhen did not say it, and he did not ask it on his own initiative, because this question was too sensitive.

Early that morning, Li Zhang came to the palace again. The weather has been gloomy these days. It seems that the first snow of winter is coming. Today is ten days, and Zhao Zhen doesn't have to attend class. He was very happy to see Li Zhang accompany him. At that moment, the two of them played badminton all morning. When it was noon, white snowflakes floated from the gloomy sky, they returned to the hall with some discomfort.

Both of them were hungry at this time. It was a good day to eat hot pot on snowy days. He had invited Zhao Zhen to eat before, so the palace specially created copper hot pot according to the paper drawn by Li Zhang. Now Li Zhang asked someone to take it, then poured the chicken soup into it, cut the frozen mutton into several large plates, and there were some vegetables, mushrooms, etc., which were very rich.

Li Zhang picked up a piece of light mutton and rinsed it in the rolling white soup, and then swallowed it with sesame paste. The rinsed mutton was fragrant and smooth. The only pity was that there were no chili peppers, so he could only eat clear soup hotpot. If you want to eat red soup, you had to sail to America.

Just as Li Zhang was tasting the delicious mutton, Zhao Zhen suddenly hesitated for a moment, and then hesitated: "Cousin, there is something I...I want to talk to you!"

"If you have anything, just say, why are you polite to me?" Li Zhang swallowed the mutton again and said. In fact, he also discovered that Zhao Zhen had no appetite since the beginning, and stopped after eating the mutton. You must know that he liked hot pot the most in the past.

Hearing Li Zhang's words, Zhao Zhen seemed to have finally plucked up some courage and said again: "Cousin, have you heard about the eldest lady decree me the year name?"

"I heard that, isn't it called Tiansheng? The saint from heaven, isn't it just you?" Li Zhang smiled and said, as if he didn't think much about this year name.

"I would have thought like my cousin." Zhao Zhen whispered with a resentful expression when he heard this.

Hearing Zhao Zhen’s words with a little complaint, Li Zhang sighed immediately, then put down his chopsticks and said, “Is anyone saying something in front of you?”

Zhao Zhen hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Well, some people say that the eldest lady chose this year name for me, but in fact, she wanted to imitate the martial arts empress of the previous dynasty. There are even rumors outside that the eldest lady already has the intention to become an emperor?"

Although Li Zhang was mentally prepared, when he heard Zhao Zhen say what he was thinking, he couldn't help but sigh. The situation he was most worried about finally happened. With Zhao Zhen ascending the throne and Liu E taking power, a crack inevitably appeared between them. Although the crack is still very small now, as time goes by, the differences between them and their mother and son will only become bigger and bigger.

"Then how do you think about this?" Li Zhang was silent for a moment, and suddenly looked up and asked Zhao Zhen. He wanted to find out Zhao Zhen's true view, not the view he got from others.

Zhao Zhen also blushed when he heard Li Zhang's words. After a while, he said hesitantly again: "I...I don't know either, but the eldest lady did the year name too obviously, and she didn't discuss it with me at all. I can't figure out what she was thinking now?"

Although Zhao Zhen said he didn't know, when he said it, the resentment in the words could not be blocked. But he couldn't blame him. After all, many ministers had seen him privately during this period. Of course, these ministers did not dare to say that Liu E was ambitious, but they also mentioned some of them obscurely. Zhao Zhen was not stupid, so he naturally understood it. In addition, some rumors from the outside world made him feel very uneasy.

After hearing what Zhao Zhen said, Li Zhang couldn't help but sigh, then patted his shoulder and said, "Today there are only two of us brothers, so I won't call you Your Majesty. But cousin, you have to remember that you are still young now, and the only person you can rely on is the Grand Empress. So no matter what the Grand Empress does, no matter how dissatisfied you are, don't show it, let alone let the Grand Empress know!"

"Cousin, what do you mean is that I can only endure it?" Zhao Zhen frowned when he heard Li Zhang's words. In fact, he had been holding on to these words for a long time, but he had never found anyone to talk to. The only one who could talk to was Li Zhang. However, he didn't expect that Li Zhang had no substantial suggestions after hearing them.

"It's not that you can tolerate it, but that you have to figure out one thing. Even if the eldest lady hand over the power to you, you can't catch it at your current age. In the end, it will only fall into the hands of the ministers in the court. No matter how loyal the ministers are, can they still compare with the eldest lady?"
