"With such an important minister, Your Majesty will definitely feel at ease."
"Father," the young official Gao said anxiously, "The Queen Mother no longer wants to discuss matters with the court, but that old bastard Chen Shao actually went to kneel at the palace gate. This is going to force the Queen Mother to have no way out."
"Even if he did such a thing, Chen Shao would risk it all," Gao Lingbo said.
"Then what should we do now?" Gao Xiaoguan asked anxiously.
This damn Chen Shao's words from Yang Jian simply forced the Gao family to have no way out.
Gao Lingbo smiled.
"That's easy to handle." He said, taking out a memorial and throwing it to the senior official, "Send it to me for my father."
What?
The high-ranking official opened the memorial with some confusion, and suddenly looked stunned.
"Please resign!"
The Queen Mother was shocked when she saw the memorial handed to her.
"What are you doing? Just because of what Chen Shao said, are you going to leave our orphans and widowed mother alone?"
At this point, the Queen Mother became furious again.
"This is the throne of our Fang family. We, the Fang family, have the final say. We cannot allow this rebellious minister to dictate! He called the Ai family a man who manipulates power and harms the country, so the Ai family fulfilled his loyalty and beheaded him!"
"Empress."
Gao Lingbo smiled and saluted.
"What I wish to fulfill is not his loyalty, but His Majesty's kingdom."
"Chen Shao is right. When King Qing ascends the throne, people in the world will inevitably laugh at him, and the court will also be panicked. In order to stabilize people's hearts, this must be done."
"Your Majesty, your Majesty must do this for the sake of your Majesty and Prince Qing. Your Majesty is not forced to do this by Chen Shao, but for the sake of the Fang family's country."
The Queen Mother looked at Gao Lingbo with muddy tears in her eyes.
"Then what will we do if you leave? He dares to bully the Ai family like this now, and he won't let the Ai family take charge of the government," she said.
"Empress, if you want to take it first, you must give it to it first." Gao Lingbo said, raising his head and smiling slightly, "Since he wants it, we will give it to him. As for whether he can keep it after taking it, that is not our business."
………………………………
Chen Shao did not kneel for too long. A day later, the Qinzheng Hall held another court meeting.
Listening to the chamberlain reading the last sentence of Gao Lingbo's resignation letter, there was silence in the palace.
"Now, is it okay?"
The Queen Mother's voice sounded from behind the curtain.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty," Chen Shao said, without paying any attention to the Queen Mother's anger. He bowed and said, "Your Majesty, Chen Shao, invites Prince Qing to be crown prince."
Immediately, someone came out and knelt down.
"I would like to ask the Queen Mother to appoint Prince Qing as the Crown Prince."
More people came forward one by one.
Listening to the calls for standing up one after another, the Queen Mother exhaled heavily.
"Yes." She opened her mouth and said.
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a servant coming in quickly from outside the door.
"The Queen has arrived."
Queen?
Everyone in the palace looked surprised, and the Queen Mother behind the curtain even frowned.
"How can the queen enter the palace when the government is discussing matters?" A censor stood up and said.
"The emperor is seriously ill, and the queen is not without the power to act in the palace to discuss matters." But some people objected.
There was indeed a precedent, so the censor paused for a moment.
During this moment of hesitation, the queen had already walked in, and the servant Ban Zhi outside the door did not dare to stop her. The queen, who was wearing heavy makeup and court clothes, was the third-ranked person in the palace, and now she is the second-ranked person, because the first-ranked one was lying on the bed.
I can no longer take charge of the board.
"Why did the Queen come to the palace without an edict?" the Queen Mother asked.
The Queen walked straight to the throne, first saluted the Queen Mother uprightly, and then turned to face the courtiers.
"I have heard that you are discussing the establishment of a crown prince, have you reached a conclusion?" she asked.
As the queen spoke these words, the expressions of the courtiers present changed.
This question is not just about knowing whether there is a conclusion. If you want to know whether there is a conclusion, why go to the palace? You can find out by waiting outside.
"Queen!" The Queen Mother shouted, "The crown prince has been decided. You go to the palace and wait for the edict."
The queen's expression remained dignified.
"I wonder who made the decision?" she asked.
"Of course it's Prince Qing." The anger in the Queen Mother's voice could not be concealed.
This woman, I haven’t even settled the accounts with her yet, yet she dares to run out and cause trouble!
"Prince Qing doesn't have a watch, and I don't agree with that," the queen said.
As soon as this statement came out, the whole court was in an uproar.
Sure enough, sure enough.
The officials present said in their hearts, regardless of being rude, they all looked at the two women in the palace. The Queen Mother had already raised the curtain and came out. The two women on the high platform, both wearing heavy makeup, looked at each other.
"Queen, what are you talking about?" the Queen Mother shouted angrily.
The queen still looked calm.
"Prince Qing has no appearance of heaven and sun, and his mind is incomplete. He is an incomplete man and cannot be the prince." She said.
The courtiers looked surprised, but at the same time there was a sense of understanding.
It seems that the rift between the Queen and the Queen Mother is not small, and it actually forced the Queen to stand up against the establishment of King Qing as the crown prince in the name of disloyalty and unfilial piety.
"Then, I wonder what the Queen's feelings are?"
When the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother were confronting each other and the courtiers were reluctant to speak, a voice suddenly sounded.
All eyes immediately turned to where the sound came from.
You must know the intention of this question at this time, no less than Chen Shao's words in front of the Queen Mother asking for the crown prince.
Who is it?
Everyone avoided his gaze and fell on a tall man.
Zhang Chun!
It turned out to be Zhang Chun!
The Queen's hands in front of her were trembling slightly.
This woman is indeed very capable! How could she persuade Zhang Chun? When did she persuade Zhang Chun? How did she persuade Zhang Chun? Zhang Chun is a great scholar, a great scholar who pays the most attention to blood and dignity! He actually takes the initiative
Agree to adopt!
In the eyes of the whole court, Zhang Chun looked indifferent, holding the wat board in his hand and saluting again.
"I wonder what the Queen's feelings are?" he asked again.
This question woke up the queen who almost lost her composure.
"Choose a clan to adopt." She said after plastic surgery.
Choose a clan to adopt!
When the queen uttered these words in the court, it was like a thunder explosion that instantly caused the whole capital to burst into flames.
"The queen said that King Qing has no watch."
"What is the watch of the sun?"
"That means Prince Qing is ugly."
"You can't be the emperor if you are ugly?"
"You are so stupid. Why is Prince Qing ugly? Because he is a fool! The Queen is saying that a fool cannot be the emperor."
"A fool cannot be the emperor in the first place! The queen is right."
"But those are the emperor's own flesh and blood. How can you choose an adopted son over your own children?"
For a time, people were talking about different opinions.
"How was it in the court?"
Old Mrs. Chen asked.
"The court is also in chaos," the old servant said.
Old Mrs. Chen frowned.
"It's chaos? This is really unexpected." He said, holding the tea bowl in his hand and turning it around, "Surprisingly, someone really wants to establish a clan?"
"Yes, I didn't expect Zhang Jiangzhou to agree to the queen's proposal." The old servant said, "Since he stepped forward, others also hesitated."
Yes, there is a need for a leader in everything. As long as someone dares to be the first to speak up, then the rest will always weigh the pros and cons and take advantage of the opportunity. Isn't this the reason why Chen Shao stood up?
Old Mrs. Chen was silent.
"What happened next?" he asked.
The old servant smiled bitterly.
"The queen mother pointed at the empress and scolded her, and the court became chaotic, and the censor had to suspend the court meeting," he said.
Things in the court are not a child's play, nor are noisy things in the house. How can you always break the curtain or scold me?
With such a moody Queen Mother who cannot control her emotions, if the emperor is a person who cannot take care of himself, you can only imagine what the future of the court will be like.
"The Queen Mother's behavior will make some people hesitate again." Old Mrs. Chen shook his head, "The Queen Mother lost another point."
Having said this, I asked Chen Shao again.
"The master hasn't come back yet, and the court is in chaos now. Everyone must be discussing," the old servant said.
It's not chaos. Originally, they were divided into two factions over who was behind the curtain to listen to politics. Now, there is another one, whether it is a biological son or an adopted son. This is...
"This is going to be a big deal." Old Mrs. Chen murmured, frowning and thinking, "Why did the queen suddenly bring up this matter?"
It stands to reason that the emperor has his own children. Although he is stupid, he is still his own son. How could he propose adoption as a queen?
Where does the Queen get the courage?
The queen...courage...Zhang Chun...
Cheng Jiaoniang...Cheng Jiaoniang!
Old Mrs. Chen sat upright suddenly.
No way, this is the position of controlling the emperor’s heirs and the emperor!
How dare you?! How dare you!
…………………………………………..
"Master!"
Seeing Qin Hu walking out quickly, the maids were startled and shouted.
Qin Hu has gone far.
She was the only one who came into contact with the Queen. After she left, the Queen went to court to talk about the adoption of the clan.
Although she and Zhang Chun had never been in contact with each other, they knew each other, and the two families exchanged maids.
Zhang Chun spoke for her more than once at critical moments. More than once, he stood up at the most critical moment and turned the situation around with one word.
Control the emperor's heirs, control the position of the emperor!
How could she!
Qin Hu quickened his pace and ran out of the house.
The clan, who else is more suitable for the clan, the candidate chosen by the queen, who is comparable to the prince who has been raised in the palace since childhood!
She is going to marry him!
Imperial heir! Emperor's throne!
The incomprehensible feud with the Queen Mother...
Why should we ask her to retreat even though she has done nothing wrong?
She doesn't retreat, she doesn't retreat, so what if she doesn't retreat?
Don't retreat, just go forward and cover you...
It's her..It's her...
No!
Qin Hu stopped suddenly,
It couldn't be hers, why did he doubt her again, how could he think of her like this.
The noise from the street came. Qin Hu looked around and saw that he had reached the river, so he strolled under a pergola.
Such a clean and beautiful young man would never visit a small street shop like theirs. The owner of the tea house was flattered and quickly wiped the table with a towel again and again.
"What do you want, the little official?"
Qin Hu waved his hand, took off his money bag, took out a handful and threw it to the tea shed shopkeeper.
"Don't ask for anything, just sit down." He said, "Don't disturb me."
This young man looks gentle and elegant, but there is an evil look on his brow.
The children of these wealthy families had weird tempers, so the shopkeeper happily got out of the way while counting his money.
Thinking about straightening out what was going on, Qin Hu reached out and touched the cases.
Obviously things were going well, but Chen Shao appealed to King Liqing, and at the same time demanded the expulsion of the Gao family, preventing the Queen Mother from listening to politics behind the curtain.
The status of the prince is guaranteed, the imperial line is continued, and the court is checked and balanced, so there is no fear of someone monopolizing power.
For the country of the Great Zhou Dynasty, which suddenly suffered the death of King Ping and the emperor's serious illness, this was not a perfect but fortunate arrangement.
But now everything was disrupted because the queen suddenly proposed adoption.
Adoption, adoption, the queen really dares to think about it!
There was a snapping sound, which startled the shopkeeper who was serving tea to others. He turned around and waved to everyone to stop looking.
Qin Hu let out a breath and stroked the simple and dilapidated case with blue veins popping out.
The emperor obviously had a biological son, but he wanted to adopt an adopted son. Why did she do this? What was she afraid of? Wasn't she just afraid of the Queen Mother?
For the sake of the harem dispute, they actually want to disrupt the imperial line!
imperial clan.
Qin Hu chuckled.
This clan belongs to the King of Jin'an County who was raised like a prince in the palace and has now grown up to be a smart and capable person, right?
Compared with King Qing, this King of Jin'an County, who is seven feet three inches tall and has a quasi-sun horn, is the one who has the most outstanding appearance, right?
The prince of Jin'an County originally stayed in the capital and circled around the palace instead of leaving. This is what he did for this day.
