As the days passed, Zhang Qin spent more and more time ignoring government affairs. Jian Xiao only reviewed the memorials every day, and everyone talked about insignificant things.
Zhang Qin had already issued an edict to appoint Gao Tianduo as the acting minister. After Gao Tianduo had seen many things, Jian Xiao saw that Fu Huan was also placed next to Gao Tianduo under Jian Xiao's arrangement. Everyone in the Jia Kingdom knew that the current emperor Zhang Qin
He was so ill that he could no longer get out of bed. The DPRK and the Central Government had no control over the political affairs, but Zhang Qin played with Wan Yun Minlan in Tonghuan Pavilion every day.
In order to ensure that Zhang Qin is no longer exposed to poisons, Wan Yun is personally responsible for three meals a day. The only people who know these secrets, besides Wan Yun, Yao Meng, and Tianjiao, are Jian Xiao and Wei Zhu.
"Empress, Gao Tianduo and others have been taking care of the government for a year. This person is very capable, but he seems to have a bigger plot recently." Fu Huan came to the imperial study room to meet Jian Xiao
Jian Xiao put down the memorial in his hand, "Does he want to establish a crown prince? Ask His Majesty to give up the throne?"
Fu Huan looked up at Jian Xiao, "How do you know?"
Jian Xiao raised the corner of her mouth. She had been waiting for this day. Only in this way could the forces in the harem and the imperial court unite to gain greater power.
"Gao Tianduo will report to the court soon, Your Majesty... How is Your Majesty now?" Fu Huan can be said to be loyal to Zhang Qin.
Jian Xiao rubbed her temples and sighed: "It's still the same, nothing has happened. There are only two dragons in the palace, Min Tong and Min Hua. Do you know which side Gao Tianduo is leaning towards?"
Fu Huan shook his head, "I haven't said it yet, but that person always strives to win steadily. I think I will tell you in a few days. Then I will report it to the empress."
"I have put so much effort into these days," Jian Xiao said sincerely, "When this matter is over, you must have contributed a lot to it."
Fu Huan sighed, "I just don't know if I can wait until that day. Madam, you don't know. Their power is so great that it is unimaginable. Just you and me, I'm afraid we won't be able to come back."
Jian Xiao smiled and said, "If you don't fight until the end, how will you know the result?"
Jian Xiao was walking in the imperial garden and heard the melodious sound of flute coming from Tonghuan Pavilion in the distance. Zhang Qin sat in the room and played the flute. Wanyun danced with Minlan. Jian Xiao stood at the door and did not go in. She stood there
There, looking at the scene in front of me, I was so happy. If I weren't in the royal family, this scene would be so warm.
The way Minlan staggered and swayed made Jian Xiao laugh. She pouted and swayed like Wanyun. After a few days, she gained a lot of weight. Jian Xiao saw that her daughter was so healthy.
All intrigues have faded away
Min Lan turned around in a circle and saw Jian Xiao standing behind the house. She quickly stopped and opened her arms like a butterfly and flew towards Jian Xiao. She shouted in a childish voice: "Auntie!"
Jian Xiao hugged her daughter and asked, "Is Minlan good today?"
"Be good, dance with your second mother for your father!" Minlan was still young and didn't know what the second mother meant. She only knew that there were three people doting on her.
Jian Xiao took out a candy bar from her purse and said, "Here! Sweet!"
Minlan pushed the candy bar to Jian Xiao, "Mom, eat it!"
"Why?" Jian Xiao picked up her daughter
Minlan's little hands reached the corners of Jian Xiao's eyes, "Mom, there's a wrinkle here, just sweeten it and it'll be gone."
Jian Xiao walked in and looked at the bronze mirror. Really, wrinkles appeared in the corners of her eyes. Time had left traces on Jian Xiao's face so lightly.
Zhang Qin came over with a flute and looked at Jian Xiao's haggard look. He felt quite sad. He stretched out his hand and brushed Jian Xiao's face, "Jian Xiao, thank you for your hard work."
Jian Xiao shook her head, "Everyone will grow old! Because she will grow up!" She scratched Minlan's nose with her hand, and Minlan laughed.
Putting down Minlan, she ran to Wanyun. Knowing that Jian Xiao had something to talk to Zhang Qin, Wanyun hugged Minlan and left.
"Your Majesty, things have changed," Jian Xiao said, "Gao Tianduo asked you to appoint a crown prince."
"What do you mean?" Zhang Qin asked, "Do you want to assist the new crown prince in ascending the throne and make me the supreme emperor?"
Jian Xiao nodded
"Hmph! I haven't died yet, so I think so much? If I die, won't it cause a huge stir?" Zhang Qin said with displeasure.
"Your Majesty, let them make trouble and I'll see what other tricks they can come up with," Jian Xiao said.
"Then I will appoint Min Hua. I will definitely not let the black-hearted queen threaten my kingdom," Zhang Qin said
"How does your majesty know that Concubine Gong Xian has a red heart?" Jian Xiao asked, "does your majesty remember what happened to Yue Liuqing?"
"Why don't you remember? She was the one who almost lost her children."
"She is on the same boat as Concubine Gong Xian!" Jian Xiao said
"Is this true?" Zhang Qin looked shocked. He didn't expect that there were so many undercurrents surging in his palace. He sat down with his legs weak, "It's incredible, it's unexpected."
Jian Xiao sat next to Zhang Qin and said, "Your Majesty, according to my concubine's opinion, it is better for the snipe and the clam to fight and the fisherman will benefit!"
Zhang Qin looked at Jian Xiao and said, "Jian Xiao, you must not betray me! You are so shrewd, it scares me."
Jian Xiao smiled, "Your Majesty, your Majesty knows everything about what I have done. I even told you that I was pregnant with Tuo Jinglie's child. Does your Majesty think I will hide anything? My biggest excuse - not Wan Bi.
I have never slept with His Majesty. This is all under Your Majesty's control. As long as you say the word "death", I will be dead. Although I am restraining them, Your Majesty is restraining my concubines."
Hearing what Jian Xiao said, Zhang Qin thought it made some sense, but looking at this woman, Zhang Qin felt a different kind of emotion in his heart.
Jian Xiao looked at Zhang Qin and suddenly felt that she should let Zhang Qin know what kind of person she was facing. All this was not made up by her, but real!
A few days later, Jian Xiao received a memorial from Gao Tianduo requesting the appointment of a crown prince. Not a single voice in the court raised any objections.
Jian Xiao decided to let Zhang Qin go to court to see who he was meeting now, and to let Zhang Qin know that he had not deceived him.
Zhang Qin was lying in the imperial study room, his face was sallow, and he kept coughing. He could only see the air coming out, not the air coming in. Let alone talking, he even had trouble breathing. His hands were trembling, and he dropped the brush as soon as he picked it up.
When all the ministers saw Zhang Qin like this, they all had their own plans in mind.
Tianjiao knelt in front of Zhang Qin, stood up after a moment, and said to the ministers, "Your Majesty has a decree. Now that King Yu and King Jin are not adults yet, who should be appointed to the throne? Please discuss it with the ministers."
Make a decision"
Zhang Qin squinted at the ministers in the hall. Except for Fu Huan who looked worried, the other ministers looked like normal people. In their eyes, he was already a useless person. Gao Tianduo, whom he once trusted the most, actually showed no signs of harm.
awe
Zhang Qin glanced at Jian Xiao, who had been standing behind the curtain. She stared at the whole situation with her eyes. Zhang Qin gently closed her eyes.
