Reborn from the bottom of the coffin, the miracle doctor and the ugly concubine fight against the wo

Feng Guanlan didn't expect that she would suddenly ask this. After a moment of confusion, he said: "After His Majesty passed away, I found it really boring to live, so I quietly left the palace by myself, found a place where no one was around, and followed Your Majesty."

"What, you..." Chu Zhao looked at him and was speechless for a moment.

After a long time, he sighed and said: "Do you know why I entrusted the prince to you before I died? The prince at that time was already a mature king and did not need me to worry about him. The reason why I entrusted him to you is because I was just afraid that you would forget about the meeting and leave with me. I was thinking that if you promised me that you would protect the prince for the rest of your life, you would abide by your promise and live well. Who knew you..."

She pointed at him, shook her head, and sighed again: "You, you..."

Feng Guanlan lifted the hem of his clothes and knelt down: "Your Majesty, I forgive you, but I broke my promise."

"Get up, I don't blame you." Chu Zhao said, "But you must promise me this time. If I walk ahead of you again, you must live until the end of my life."

Feng Guanlan's eyes suddenly turned red: "Your Majesty, you can't be so cruel. This time, just let me go first. I can't live a day without you."

"..." Chu Zhao didn't know what to say, and his vision slowly became blurry.

Because there is such a person, she sincerely feels that no matter which life she has, it is worth it.

A country cannot live without a king for a day. After returning to the palace from the imperial mausoleum, the matter of establishing an emperor was put on the agenda without delay.

Chu Zhao is still Princess Jingnan. No matter how powerful she is, she is not suitable to sit in that position.

Moreover, the current situation is turbulent and the world is in chaos. For the simple-minded people, it is definitely more likely to appease the people that the orthodox royal descendants can inherit the throne.

Replacing a concubine with a different surname as the emperor may be no different from the subjugation of the country in the eyes of the people who do not know the truth. On the contrary, it gives those rebels and insurgents a legitimate reason to attack the imperial court.

Therefore, after discussing with Feng Guanlan, Chu Zhao decided to choose one of Chu Xuan's children to be the emperor first.

As a romantic emperor, Chu Xuan's most indispensable thing was children, but the queen did not give him a child.

There are direct descendants, but there are no direct descendants. Princess Huai'an happens to be Chu Xuan's first child.

But she was a princess, and her biological mother was from a very humble background, so she was obviously not the emperor's candidate in the eyes of the courtiers.

Therefore, even though Chu Zhao liked her very much, he still encountered unanimous opposition from everyone.

Chu Zhao was very angry about this and complained to Feng Guanlan: "They just look down on women. I wasn't a princess back then. I can be the emperor with my weak legs. As the eldest princess, Huai'an, why not?"

"How can the princess compare with your majesty?" Feng Guanlan said, "Your majesty won the country with his own ability. The people who followed you were also your most loyal subordinates. Naturally, no one opposed you, but Princess Huai'an not only The biological mother is from a low background and has been living in the cold palace. She lacks basic education, let alone the knowledge of governing the country. Who can rest assured that such a little girl becomes the emperor?"

Chu Zhao knew what he said was reasonable, but he still felt unhappy.

Although Huai'an did not have enough knowledge, she had the spirit of a king. If nothing else, the words she said in Chengtian Palace were not something that any prince could say.

Moreover, Huai'an learns things very quickly. As long as he is carefully taught by a famous teacher, he can graduate in a few years.

But under the current situation, there really was no time for her to grow up slowly. In desperation, Chu Zhao could only turn his attention to a few princes.

Chu Xuan has a total of six princes, the oldest is eight years old, and the youngest is still nursing. No matter how smart the children are, they are still children. In addition, Chu Zhao has not had much contact with them, so he doesn't know which one is smarter.

Moreover, choosing an emperor not only depends on the emperor himself, but also the natal family of the emperor's biological mother. It cannot be too weak, nor is it too strong. If it is too weak, it cannot support the emperor. If it is too strong, it will give birth to ambitions like the He family.

Chu Zhao and the other ministers went back and forth to choose, but could not reach a conclusion for several days. Seeing those people fighting over the choice of emperor every morning in the morning, they were so angry that they really wanted to bite their teeth and take the blame.

Later, Feng Guanlan saw that she was anxious and recommended a prince to her in private.

"I know that what I am doing is against the rules. I just can't bear to see His Majesty worried about this, so I dare to say something. No matter what Your Majesty thinks is feasible or not, please don't blame me."

"You said, there is no one else here, I won't blame you." Chu Zhao rubbed his swollen and painful temples, really wanting to give himself a few injections.

Feng Guanlan boldly said: "The third prince under the knee of Concubine Shu of Jinque Palace has just turned six years old, but he is extremely smart and has a calmer temperament than the other princes. The teachers at Taixue said that he is quite similar to the late emperor when he was a child. style.

The most important thing is that although Concubine Shu's family is powerful, the third prince is not her biological child. This automatically reduces the hidden dangers of the foreign relatives and can still support him. Your Majesty thinks this is appropriate. Not suitable? "

Chu Zhao was surprised: "The third prince is not Concubine Shu's biological child, so who is his biological mother?"

Feng Guanlan looked around, knowing that there was no one else, but he still said in a low voice: "The biological mother of the third prince is the princess of the Yunyang County King in Jinzhou. One year, the Yunyang County King brought the princess to Beijing to celebrate the Queen Mother's birthday. The emperor coveted the princess. Because of her beauty, she forced the person to stay in the palace.

The prince of Yunyang County was so ashamed and angry that he died of depression not long after returning to his fiefdom. The princess shed tears all day long in the palace, and soon lost her favor because of her haggard appearance.

At that time, she was living in the Golden Bird Palace. After she fell out of favor, she was assigned to a side palace. The main palace was given to His Majesty's newly-named Concubine Shu. Later, Concubine Shu discovered that she was pregnant. She was afraid that she would be harmed and could not keep the child, so she told the public Claiming that she was pregnant.

After the child was born, the princess died of bleeding. Everyone thought she died missing the prince, so the child was naturally raised in the name of Concubine Shu. "

Feng Guanlan stopped here, looked at Chu Zhao's complicated expression, and said cautiously: "This is probably the situation. What do you think of my proposal?"

Chu Zhao was shocked.

She had never had a wife in her life, and her harem was clean and barren, so she had never experienced anything like this.

Prince Yunyang is Chu Xuan's cousin, and can be considered a descendant of her Chu family. If he is really angry to death because of this matter, Chu Xuan's sin is indeed serious enough.

But having said that, since Concubine Shu kept things so secretive, how did Feng Guanlan know about it?
