Rebirth of the King of the World
Chapter 32 Conspiracy
Although Shu Han's stay in Yujing was not short, the negotiation on the border market finally broke down because the bottom line of the two sides was too far apart.
Faced with such a result, the general voice in the court is full of worry.After all, the primary purpose of Dayan and Tie Le's mutual opening of border markets is not to make money, but to hold Tie Le's economic lifeline and ensure the stability of northern Xinjiang. Earning more or less is of secondary importance, as long as there is no loss, it will be fine.
Emperor Chengzu was able to kill Tie Le so much, it was determined by his own martial arts and prestige, and it was impossible for other people to completely replicate this.
This is also one of the reasons why the first emperor would make appropriate concessions to Tiele at the beginning. Times have changed and the situation in all aspects has changed. As long as Dayan’s fundamental interests are not shaken, it’s okay to let some Li Tiele people. It’s better than rekindling the flames of war between the two sides. It's much better to live in charcoal.
It's a pity that the emperor just couldn't see through this point. It's good for him to stick to his principles and not back down. Most of the Tiele people would accept the temptation if they failed.But the emperor insisted on restoring the conditions of the trade market to the previous level, which is not acceptable to the Tiele people.
After all, Emperor God Bless is not Emperor Chengzu, and the same words from his mouth do not have that deterrent effect.
When the negotiations entered a stalemate, there were many ministers in the DPRK who gave the emperor a statement, to the effect that maintaining the status quo was the best situation both sides could accept under the current conditions. Only Dayan and Tie Le took a step back. It is possible to discuss this matter.
In the face of many petitions, the emperor turned a blind eye to them and beat them all back. He lost his temper when he was still in the dynasty, and scolded all the courtiers who gave him papers, scolding them for being unreasonable. The national prestige of the country has lost the face of the ancestors.
Seeing that the emperor insisted on his own opinion, the officials were helpless. If the talks continued like this, the negotiations would definitely be fruitless.
When Jun Lan returned home from the imperial court, he called his three sons and Jun Lu to the study, and asked them to talk about their views on this matter.
"I think war will break out in northern Xinjiang soon." Jun Wei spoke quickly, before his brother did.
"Oh." Jun Lan responded without any surprise, nodded and said, "Wei'er, tell me why you think so."
Jun Lu thought for a while, and said without hesitation: "The emperor has always regarded himself very highly, and he always takes Emperor Chengzu as his goal. As long as Emperor Chengzu can do it, he will do it, and he wants to do it better than him, but... "
Although it was my father, son and brother talking, there was no possibility of being heard by outsiders, but Jun Wei still clicked, as long as Jun Lan and others understood what he meant, there was no need to say every word clearly, behind the scenes Talking about the emperor in private is a crime of disrespect.
Jun Lan sighed lowly when he heard the words, Jun Wei, a 13-year-old boy, could see the fact clearly, but now he is the Ninth Five Supreme, but he can't see it at all.Compared with Emperor Chengzu, he couldn't do the most basic thing of accepting advice with an open mind, let alone others.
Although his surname is no longer Wei, in terms of blood, Emperor Chengzu is still Junlan's great-grandfather.Junlan once thought about whether the stronger a person is, the more confident he is. His great-grandfather was obviously the worst born emperor among the emperors of Dayan, but when he was emperor, the atmosphere in the court was the most open. The courtiers can speak freely and say whatever they want, and it doesn't matter if they want to beat the emperor, as long as they say something reasonable, Emperor Chengzu will never get angry, and he will reward such behavior wantonly.
In those years when Emperor God Bless first came to the throne, he could still listen to people's persuasion, but after more than 30 years as the emperor, his acceptance of advice that failed to meet his own wishes has become worse and worse. Too lazy to look at it and call back.
Speaking of the border market negotiations this time, the demands of the Tiele people are unreasonable, but the bottom line given by the God Bless Emperor is also unreasonable. Both sides have such attitudes. The negotiating officials are basically wasting their saliva, which is impossible. Talk about the result.
"Ah Wei, do you think the border market will be closed if the Emperor fails to agree?" Jun Che frowned slightly, with a serious expression on his face.
After taking back all the land lost by the previous dynasty, Emperor Chengzu once said in order to secure the hearts of the surrounding vassal states that the Dayan Dynasty would not take the initiative to initiate foreign wars at any time. This move won him a very high prestige. For the rest of the year, the fact is indeed the same.
If the negotiations with Tiele break down, the emperor will definitely close the border market, which is the most effective way to attack Tiele.
The significance of Bianshi to Dayan and Tie Le is completely different, the former is icing on the cake, while the latter is a timely gift.Once the border market is closed, the Tiele people may tear up the contract at any time and send troops south. That is their best response.
But Jun Che was very worried. Has the emperor thought about how to deal with Tie Le's cavalry?
Aside from the garrisons in the border states and counties, Dayan's most effective troops are the Forbidden Army of the capital, the Dongcheng Camp and the Xicheng Camp.
The Forbidden Army is the army guarding the imperial city. The commander is the commander. The main soldiers under it are the Guard Order of the South Palace, the Guard Order of the North Palace, and the left and right. They are also called the "Northern Army" because they are stationed in the north of the city.
Dongcheng Daying and Xicheng Daying are the elite part of the Dayan army. According to Emperor Taizu's will, Dongcheng Daying is in charge of Prince Ping and Prince Jing, while Xicheng Daying is in charge of King Yong'an and King Changning.
Since Prince Jing's title has no children, King Yong'an's family has changed to the civilian route, so for a long time, the strength of the East and West Battalions was basically in the hands of King Pingjun and King Changning.
During Chengzu's reign, Prince Gong replaced King Pingjun, and the first Prince Gong, Wei Cheng, happened to be the emperor's grandfather by blood.
The military strength of the Xicheng camp has always been in the hands of the Ji family. Emperor Chengzu thought about sending King Zhaoyang to the Xicheng camp at the beginning, but the military talents of the Jun family were all given to the former Marquis Huan of Zhaoyang. What's worse is that I'm not good at this, so I had no choice but to give up in the end.
Unlike the Ji family in Changning Prince's Mansion, the talent to lead soldiers and fight is engraved in the blood, and it is not too bad to be drawn out by each generation.
"That's for sure. With the legacy of Emperor Chengzu, it is impossible for the emperor to take the initiative to send troops. But if the Tiele people rise up first, it is natural for him to fight back. If he wins the Tiele people, wouldn't he have martial arts? "The more Jun Wei spoke, the more he felt that his words made sense.
Jun Xun's face changed drastically when he heard this, and he said, "But is there any point in doing this?"
From the Taizu Emperor who founded the country to the Chengzu Emperor who returned from all over the world, the previous dozen emperors of the Wei family were either fighting or preparing for war.But those are all for a reason. The lost homeland has not been recovered, the border has been invaded, and the people have been killed. What can we do if we don’t fight.
Standing on the shoulders of the predecessors, Emperor Chengzu accomplished all his merits in one battle, and in exchange for the prosperity of the country, the prosperity of the country, the prosperity of the people and the prosperity of all nations.
It is true that Tie Le is not as peaceful as in previous years, but if they must have objections, that is not necessarily the case.In Jun Xun's view, the Tiele people just want more benefits. They reject the other party's unreasonable demands and show their attitude that it is good to maintain the status quo.
After all, the overall strength of the two countries is very different, and the Tiele people can't be so overwhelmed that they insist on confronting the Dayan Dynasty head-on.
However, the emperor deliberately wanted to force people into trouble, so as to find a reasonable reason for himself to send troops to seek martial arts, which is difficult for people to accept.
"Emperor Chengzu's literary and martial arts are the top in this dynasty, and the emperor is probably..." Jun Lu opened his mouth slowly, but he was really speechless.The so-called high ambitions and great talents are talking about people like God Blessing the Emperor. He is not as honest as the late Emperor and has self-knowledge.
When Jun Lu said this, the three Jun brothers reacted surprisingly similarly, they all shook their heads helplessly.
Seeing his sons like this, Junlan didn't know what to say, so he said softly for a long time, "When you leave this door today, you should act as if you haven't said anything or heard anything."
What's the use of understanding the emperor's mind? They have already persuaded them to persuade them, but the emperor couldn't listen to them at all. Could they still tell the emperor directly that you, an old man, should not worry about it. You are no match for Emperor Chengzu Yes, even thinking about it is impossible.
Negotiations on the border market broke down. Not only did the Tiele people not get any benefits, but they might also provoke the Emperor God Bless to close the border market.
Only Shu Han maintained a calm expression from beginning to end, as if the result of the negotiation had nothing to do with him.
Before parting, Shu Han was still in the mood to invite Ji Ning to visit him when he was free, but Ji Ning declined with a smile.
Shu Han was not angry either, and said with a confident smile: "A-Ning, believe me, we will meet again." After speaking, he got on his horse and left, not giving Ji Ning a chance to refuse.
Jun Lu heard about this from Jiang Yuan, and after Jiang Yuan finished speaking, he added a special sentence: "Little friend, you just need to know, but don't let your Ah Wei know, otherwise Ah Ning will blame me for talking too much." .”
Jiang Yuan told Junlu this matter purely as a funny thing, but Ji Ning is interested in Junwei, and is still in the stage of pursuing unsuccessfully. If Junwei finds out about this matter, he will tear down the brother station himself. suspicion.
In fact, even if Jiang Yuan didn't say anything, Jun Lu wasn't that boring. They didn't understand why Shu Han looked at Ji Ning differently, but they knew that Ji Ning had absolutely no interest in Shu Han.
"Of course I won't say it anymore, but don't you think that Shu Han's words still make sense." The other day when the war in northern Xinjiang happened, Shu Han and Ji Ning would probably meet each other, but at that time they just wanted to Kill a life-and-death opponent.
Jiang Yuan was also helpless when he heard this, waved his hand and said: "People, they are born in the blessings and don't know the blessings..." He paused here, and then asked: "Little friend, why do you think it is Changning Palace? Going on an expedition?"
"The position of the crown prince has not yet been determined. Does the emperor dare to release the second prince?" Currently, Prince Gong is in charge of Dongcheng Daying in name, but the one who really has the final say is actually the second prince Wei Sheng. He is the only prince in this generation. Trained in the barracks.
In non-wartime, the tiger amulet is in the hands of the emperor, and Prince Gong and King Changning are in charge of the troops on their behalf, and they themselves have no right to deploy troops.
But in wartime, the tiger talisman will be given away. The second prince is almost the de facto eldest son of the emperor. If he has military merits, he might not be at ease with God Bless the emperor's suspicious nature.
"Is that why you are so optimistic about the second prince?" Jiang Yuan only had one impression of his second cousin, and that was that he had no brains.
Jun Lu couldn't tell Jiang Yuan that Wei Sheng had devoted all his brains to military matters, and he couldn't do anything else. He thought for a while and said slowly: "If the second prince loses, it will be a shame to the emperor, but If he wins, how will the emperor reward him?"
In fact, based on Wei Sheng's previous performance of being held back by others and still winning the battle, Jun Lu didn't think he would lose at all.
The crux of the problem is that no one dares to use Wei Sheng boldly. The current emperor does not dare, and the future ones will not dare.As for Wei Sheng becoming the emperor himself, Jun Lu gave up the idea after thinking about it, it seemed to be a more terrifying thing.
A person like Wei Sheng is suitable to meet Emperor Xingzu, he employs no doubts, no need to worry about others, and takes care of all logistics, you just need to fight in the front, the more he wins, the happier he is, there is no merit at all. Shaker's argument, because he doesn't care.
Jiang Yuan's idea is not the same as that of Jun Lu, but he also thought of it. The emperor doesn't want a certain prince to become powerful, so if he needs to send troops, it is more likely to move the camp in the west city. As the son of Prince Changning, how can Ji Ning It is also unavoidable.
"Uncle is determined to close the border market, and none of us can stop it, so let's not talk about it." Jiang Yuan didn't bother to think about things that were beyond his ability, because it would be useless to think about it, and it would be of no use to the final The result didn't work at all.
Jiang Yuan doesn't have to think about it, because like most people in this era, he is full of confidence in Dayan's national strength.If the Tiele people really provoked a war because of this, just fight, and the heavens are dignified, and they can't deal with a mere barbarian, how is that possible.
Jiang Yuan's thinking cannot be said to be wrong, it's just that he underestimated the lower limit of the princes, they fought fiercely, and really didn't care about anything.
Jun Lu knew how tragic the wars in his previous life were, so he couldn't stop thinking about it. In any case, he had to deal with the ones that held him back the most.
The main reason for the failure of the negotiation was the emperor, but Wei Ying was the specific person in charge after all, and he wanted to perform well, but this time it was useless.
What made Wei Ying feel even more uncomfortable was that Wei Sheng stole the biggest limelight when the Tie Le Mission came.Now, the Ministry of Rites and the Shaofu are already planning the wedding for Wei Sheng. He has his mother's family Xu's family, his original wife's family's Zhou family, and soon he will have more grandchildren's family.
Wei Ying was very dissatisfied with this situation, so he summoned his advisers to discuss countermeasures in the mansion.
Apart from Wu Pei and Lu Qingliang who followed Wei Ying inseparably on weekdays, there is also a middle-aged man in the Sixth Prince's Mansion today.
Wei Ying respected this person very much, so he asked his opinion first, Wei Sheng's advantage became more and more obvious, which made him very embarrassed now.
Going all out to compete with Wei Sheng will put him on the bright side in the future. Right now, the third prince Wei Zhan and the fourth prince Wei Ang are still standing still, which is not the best policy.
But if there is no dispute, what if Wei Sheng really takes the position? His age, his background, his son, and his power in the army are all unmatched by other princes.
"Your Highness, please be safe and don't be impatient. Your Highness is not your main opponent, not now, nor in the future." The middle-aged scribe spoke slowly, his voice was not high, but it was unexpectedly full of quiet power, and It calmed Wei Ying's emotions very well.
"How do you say this, sir, please explain clearly." In fact, Wei Ying understands the truth, he just needs someone to affirm himself.
The middle-aged scribe took a deep look at Wei Ying, and said unhurriedly: "Your Highness must have known what happened on the Qianqiu Festival. Even if we don't know the inside story, we can be sure that the prince is I really offended the emperor. The reason why the emperor didn't abolish the crown prince was because he felt that the reputation of being a waste prince was not good. Anyway, the crown prince died soon, and preserving his position as the crown prince also fulfilled his good reputation. The prince has no goodwill and patience, and the empress is undoubtedly the most disturbed. Whoever is the most threatening to His Highness is the one she hates the most. Especially the empress has always believed that the poisoning of the prince in the past was related to Concubine Xu Yes. So no matter how popular the Second Highness is, the Sixth Highness doesn’t have to take it to heart, if he has no chance, the empress will definitely drag him down.”
"That's what I said, but the empress and His Royal Highness are one. The emperor doesn't want to see the prince anymore. Could it be that he just..." Wei Ying asked some questions, so Lu Qingliang asked him with a wink. Also his own doubts.
The middle-aged scribe smiled slightly, and said calmly: "In the harem, the mother, the son, the son, and the mother's honor always complement each other. But our empress, her greatest reliance is not His Royal Highness, but Emperor Ruizong, that is the truth. The foundation of her standing."
The first emperor was Emperor Ruizong's adopted nephew from his brother, and his intention of marrying his successor to Emperor Ruizong's granddaughter couldn't be more obvious.As long as Empress Shangguan does not commit serious crimes such as treason and treason, her status will be as stable as a rock.
The prince's body has been ruined long ago, and now it's time to wait, Empress Shangguan has nothing to contend with, when she was concentrating on dealing with one person, there was absolutely nothing she couldn't do, Wei Sheng bumped into Empress Shangguan's gun head-on Well, that's his bad luck.
Wei Ying had thought about this before, but he wasn't sure if his thoughts were right.
Now that the middle-aged scribe said the same thing, Wei Ying felt relieved. He thanked him with a smile, and asked politely, "In my opinion, sir, what should I do next?"
"The emperor first promoted His Highness the Second Highness and His Highness the Fourth Highness in the marriage, and then gave the Sixth Highness a chance in the errands. It can be seen that he does not want any Highness to be superior to others. In other words——" The middle-aged scribe paused for a while, Said in a deep voice: "The emperor has no intention of establishing a reserve for the time being."
Wei Ying's heart sank when she heard the words, and the husband said it in his heart again, but after him, the little princes are too young, the oldest Xiao Shi is only nine years old this year, Xiao Shi is less than eight years old, Xiao Shi Er was just six years old, and the youngest fourteenth guard, Pan, had just turned three years old.
Who could it be? Could it be Wei Pan? He is the father's favorite son right now...
"There are two possibilities for the so-called not to establish a prince. One is that the emperor feels that he is in the prime of his age, so there is no need for it for the time being; the other is that the emperor has a heart for a certain little prince, but he is too young, so we have to wait a few years." Middle-aged While talking, the scribe paid attention to the change of Wei Ying's expression, "But no matter what it is, it doesn't mean that His Royal Highness has no chance. What you have to seize is these few years."
"Please advise, sir." Of course Wei Ying knew that she had to hurry up, but she was still a little at a loss as to how to do it.
Seeing that Wei Ying was eager to ask for advice instead of expressing unwillingness because of her words, the middle-aged scribe was very satisfied, and continued: "Compared to the second and third highnesses and fourth highnesses, the biggest disadvantage of the sixth highness is that the mother's family is not strong, so you must marry To a concubine with an excellent background. The mother family and wife family are the most important and most steadfast support for the princes, which cannot be replaced by others. Then His Royal Highness, you must pay attention to your words and deeds. You can make people feel yourself You are kind and easy to talk, but you can't let everyone in the court think so. You are still an ordinary prince. If the emperor notices that your popularity is particularly good, it is not a good thing. And the most important thing is that the sixth prince must show that he loves his brothers It's obvious that the emperor loves the little princes, you have to make the emperor realize that it's safest for them to have you."
Wei Ying froze for a moment, and then showed a clear smile.Among the grown-up princes, Wei Ying's background is the lowest, and he doesn't have a mother's family to rely on, so since childhood, Wei Ying has been using other methods to win connections for himself, and it is necessary for a corporal to be a virtuous man.
The words of the middle-aged scribe reminded Wei Ying that it is important to win people over, but it is also very dangerous to bury too many nails in the palace.Also, for the ministers in the court, it is better to have a small number of loyalists than to bring in a large number of fools, which will not easily arouse the fear of the father.
Think about it, for an ordinary prince, people everywhere say good things about him, in the eyes of the emperor, it is actually not a good thing.
He was negligent in treating his younger brothers and sisters kindly. The emperor was old, and the relationship between the emperor and the adult princes was more important than the relationship between father and son, but the underage princes were even more loved by him. It was impossible for the emperor not to worry about himself. What will happen to the younger sons.
Wei Ying quickly figured out the last two points, so she said sincerely, "Thank you sir for your guidance, but...a lady of a high family may not be suitable for you."
He had calculated for a long time before finding out that Junlu was the most suitable in all aspects. Unfortunately, before he succeeded, the emperor gave Junjia a marriage to the fourth child, which completely disrupted his plan.
"Who said there is no? There is no one in the Jun family who is the most suitable." Wei Ying originally wanted to ask the middle-aged scribe if there was any suitable candidate, but what he said next made Wei Ying dumbfounded, and even asked I doubted my ears a little, whether he heard it wrong.
"Jun's family?!" Wei Ying mistakenly thought that she had heard it wrong, and it took a long time before she said softly: "The county head of Zhaoyang Prince's Mansion has already pointed it out to the fourth child. How can there be a reason why there are two princes and concubines in one family? won't do that."
The middle-aged scribe shook his head lightly, and said in a deep voice, "Everything is possible, everything is possible."
Seeing that Wei Ying didn't understand, the middle-aged scribe said again: "Could it be that His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince thinks that as long as the emperor proposes marriage, the girl's natal family will fully support the prince. Other families may be like this, such as the Guoguo government, the king If it’s at home, it’s hard to say.”
Wei Ying nodded subconsciously. He had thought about this matter, and even thought about the means to win over the Jun family in the future.
"It goes without saying that His Highness the Second Highness and the Guoguo Government are a strong alliance, but whether the Zhaoyang Prince's Mansion thinks highly of the Fourth Highness, that's another matter." The middle-aged scribe obviously did enough homework in advance, speaking of The situation of each family is well known.
Wei Sheng is married to his stepmother, and his first wife left behind the eldest son, but this does not affect the Sun family's support for Wei Sheng in the slightest.
Because Wei Sheng's situation is so good, the Sun family will not be overwhelmed. What is it to have an eldest son? As long as Wei Sheng can be in power, as long as his own daughter can give birth to a son, the child without a mother will always suffer more, but that is all in the future. , it is still important to cooperate well now.
The situation of the Jun family and the Sun family is completely different. Not to mention that the throne of the Jun family is hereditary, the key point is that the throne of their family is still passed down from the prince.From the standpoint of the Jun family, they have no further aspirations, and it is enough to be honest and loyal to the emperor.
When the county head of the Jun family marries Wei Ang, that is marriage, which does not represent the attitude of Zhaoyang Palace itself at all.
If Wei Ang is decent, he still has a chance to slowly gain support from the Jun family in the future.However, Wei Ang is not. This is not to say that Wei Ang is incapable. If so, Wei Ying doesn't need to regard him as one of his opponents.
Wei Ang's problem lies in his personal morality. He himself said that he should not live without a woman for a day. It would be great if his daughter could be a prince and concubine if he was replaced by other people who are in power. He would not care so much. Yes, they will take great care.
"The king of Zhaoyang loves his daughters like his life. It is not unusual for him to look down on the fourth child, but his father has already given him a marriage, so he can't shirk it." The benefits of marrying Junjia are certainly not as good as Junlu, but as long as they are members of the Jun family , it is worth more than many others.
Seeing that Wei Ying still didn't understand what he meant, the middle-aged scribe slowly said: "Your Highness Six's words are wrong. The emperor personally bestowed the marriage, and King Zhaoyang certainly cannot resign. But this does not mean that he is willing to give his daughter the marriage. Marrying the Fourth Highness is completely different."
"I can't refuse, and I don't want to marry my daughter. Does King Zhaoyang have a third choice?" Wei Ying explained the mystery.
Who would have thought that the middle-aged scribe would show approval, nodded and said, "Hasn't the Sixth Highness already thought of it?"
"This, this..." Wei Ying hesitated to speak, with disbelief written all over her face.How is it possible, no matter how dissatisfied with the emperor's gift of marriage, the Jun family has more than one daughter, and they will marry as soon as they get married. At worst, they will not support the fourth child in the future. How can they be so bold.
"It's certain that King Zhaoyang doesn't want to marry his daughter, but if you say that he will do something to His Royal Highness because of this, that's not necessarily..." The middle-aged scholar said, and then went back, "If someone helps him After accomplishing this, King Zhaoyang must be very grateful."
Before the middle-aged scribe finished speaking, Wei Ying already had a complete plan in mind.He got rid of the fourth child first, and it would be best to drag the Zhaoyang Palace into the water, but for the time being, he couldn't let them know that he was involved.According to the rules of the royal family, the prince and concubine who has been given a marriage, even if the wedding is not completed, and the prince dies before the marriage, they still have to marry the spiritual position.He can come forward at that time and say that he is willing to marry Junjia. How can the royal family be guarded? It is too late for King Zhaoyang to thank him, and he will definitely agree, and things will be easier in the future.
It is not difficult to deal with Wei Ang. Wei Ying didn't attack before because he didn't want to get burned, but this time he can bring him the help of Zhaoyang Palace, so he has to seriously consider what method to use seems more natural.
The middle-aged scribe was very relieved to see that Wei Ying understood his intentions, and at the same time reminded: "Your Highness Sixth, it is not difficult to accomplish this matter, but the difficulty is to keep the emperor from thinking about it. We still need to discuss how to do it. Only then can we start."
Wei Ying nodded slowly, with a confident smile on her face. In this way, Wei Sheng and Wei Ang are basically not a problem.
In the blink of an eye, it's September, and the wedding of the second prince Wei Sheng is approaching.Originally, the second prince's marriage was not so hasty, and even if it is marrying a second concubine, it should take about a year to prepare, otherwise it would seem too immodest.
But Wei Sheng changed his temper at some point, and took his precious son with him wherever he went, for fear that someone would snatch him away.
The emperor currently has only one grandson, and he loves it very much on weekdays, but the son and grandson are so boring, the emperor can't stand it, and asked Concubine Xu to ask what happened.
Wei Sheng told the truth, someone was going to kill his son, the little Huangsun first fell into the water in the palace, and then was poisoned in the mansion.Fortunately, he reacted quickly and replaced the nurse in time when he found out that there was something wrong with the nurse, otherwise his son would have been killed.
He has no wife now, and his concubine is not qualified to raise the eldest son, so what else can he do other than look after his son himself.
The emperor couldn't laugh or cry when he heard the words, it seemed that there was no mistress in the mansion, it was shameful, so he moved Wei Sheng's wedding date forward.
The marriage of the second prince is a great joy in the palace, and Princess Ankang and Princess Anle will also enter the palace to congratulate.Coming out of the palace, the two eldest princesses sighed, and what they sighed was their son's marriage, and their grandson who didn't know when.
"Sister, Ah Yuan and Ah Li have been engaged for half a year, what are you going to do?" Princess An Le asked worriedly.
If we only look at the effect, Master Yuan Hui's method is very good. Since Jiang Yuan got engaged to Jun Lv, there have been no such strange and strange misfortunes. It's just that this kind of deception is not a long-term strategy.
Right now, Jun Lu is young and doesn't involve talking about marriage, but he will be fourteen in a few years, and he is not far away from these things.
Jun Lu is the only seedling of Langya Jun's family's direct branch. There are so many people in Jun's family, they all hope that he will get married and have children soon.Jiang Yuan took the title of fiancé, and Jun Lu couldn't say goodbye, so their marriage either became real or had to be annulled.
Princess Anle thought about it, and didn't know what her sister would do, so she accidentally mentioned it today, so she asked directly.
"To be honest, I certainly hope that they are just acting on the spot. As a mother, who doesn't want to see her son get married, get married and have children." Because it was in front of her own sister, Princess Ankang spoke without water at all. I dare not do this again, and sometimes I even think, just let Yuan'er really get married, and the throne is nothing compared to his safety." Once Jiang Yuan gets married, the position of King Changning will still remain. Whether it can be passed on depends on the emperor's mood.
"It's easy for you to say, is brother-in-law willing? Is the concubine willing? And Ah Yuan, that kid looks easy-going on the surface, but in fact he is very stubborn. If he refuses, this matter will be impossible." An Lechang The princess didn't like her sister's idea at all.
Princess Ankang sighed, and continued: "Our family's attitude is still trivial. I can always persuade the prince and mother-in-law. Even Yuan'er, I can hold back, and I'm not afraid of him making a fuss. The key is the Jun family, they Whether you want it or not is the point.”
It's about Jiang Yuan's life, and the attitude of King Changning and Concubine Ankang is not worried. If she can figure it out, they can figure it out too.On the contrary, it was the Jun's family, they agreed to be engaged to be benevolent and righteous, and it is really too embarrassing for them to do a fake show for real.
Especially since Jun Lu is not the son of King Zhaoyang, it is even more difficult to say some things. If he talks too much, he is simply bullying others.
"But sister, don't worry too much. I heard from Aning that the relationship between Ah Yuan and the young master of the Jun family is very good. In the past six months, they often go out to play. They really mean it."
"I asked them to get engaged at the beginning because I wanted them to get in touch with each other more, and then they would have feelings. Otherwise, it would be impossible to make a fake show." Princess Ankang admitted that she had made two-handed preparations and made adjustments according to the actual situation at any time. "At the beginning, Ah Hui and I agreed that Yuan'er and Ah Li were engaged for three years. After three years, they would either dissolve the engagement or formally get married. There are still two and a half years left. Let's see again. We will have to ask at that time What is Master Yuan Hui's idea, anyway, the worst result is that grandchildren and grandchildren will not be able to hug each other."
In Princess Ankang's vision, the worst situation is that Jiang Yuan and Jun Lu must get married, but they are unwilling.Then it can only be a husband and wife in name, Jiang Yuan will not interfere with the law in the future, take concubines and have children, and the two will live their lives under the name of husband and wife.
After talking about Jiang Yuan, the two eldest princesses changed the topic to Ji Ning, and the eldest princess Ankang asked, "How are Ah Ning and Ah Wei?"
"It's still the same. If you say we are friends, it seems to be more intimate, but if you say it means that, it doesn't look like it." Princess Anle was also gloomy when talking about her son. Yes, Ah Wei also said that he wants to take the imperial examination."
Without the special circumstances that Jiang Yuan had to marry, Princess Anle would definitely not allow her son to marry.Then at the Jun family, don't say that Jun Wei is unwilling, even if he is willing, Princess Anle believes that King Zhaoyang and Princess Xie are also unwilling.
It is obviously impossible for two people. Princess Anle couldn't figure out why her son, who had been smart for the first time, was in trouble in this matter. Wouldn't it be good to be friends with Jun Wei? If he insisted on going further, he would simply be embarrassing himself.
"Sons are all debts, and they were born to collect debts." Princess Ankang was silent for a moment, and finally concluded.
Princess Anle laughed, and then lowered her voice and said: "The one from the East Palace is dying, probably won't make it through this year." When mentioning Prince Wei Yi, Princess Anle's face was solemn, her eyes were so cold that they could pierce people.
"It's too cheap for him..." Princess Ankang said angrily.Letting Wei Yi die as the crown prince was a situation neither the two princesses wanted to see, but the emperor had a good face, and unless the crown prince rebelled, he would definitely not abolish him.
However, after the Qianqiu Festival, Wei Yi was ill and did not even attend the Emperor's Longevity Festival.It is really too difficult for such Wei Yi to rebel against him. The two princesses thought about it for a long time, but in the end they were helpless.
"I don't want him to die like this, I'm not reconciled." Princess Anle recalled the past ten years ago, and her hatred could hardly be concealed.
"Sister, I want to try again, do you want to come?" If Wei Yi's reputation was ruined, Princess Anle would not be able to pass her own test.
Princess Ankang seldom saw such an expression on her younger sister's face, so she couldn't help but said in a deep voice, "What are you going to do?"
Princess Anle leaned over and breathed out two words in her sister's ear.
Although Princess Anle's voice was very low and there was absolutely no possibility of it being heard by outsiders, Princess Ankang's face changed dramatically when she heard the words: "No, this is too dangerous. Once exposed..."
It's one thing for them to want revenge, but it's meaningless if they involve themselves and their whole family.
"I can't bear to let him be buried as a prince, I really can't bear it..." Princess An Le murmured.
"If my sister doesn't want to, I'll just do it myself." Regardless of success or failure, this is their last chance.
"No, you can't do it yourself, neither can the two of us, you must tell the prince." It involves the future and future of the two families, and the family members are not allowed to know what to say. On the contrary, it will be higher.
Faced with such a result, the general voice in the court is full of worry.After all, the primary purpose of Dayan and Tie Le's mutual opening of border markets is not to make money, but to hold Tie Le's economic lifeline and ensure the stability of northern Xinjiang. Earning more or less is of secondary importance, as long as there is no loss, it will be fine.
Emperor Chengzu was able to kill Tie Le so much, it was determined by his own martial arts and prestige, and it was impossible for other people to completely replicate this.
This is also one of the reasons why the first emperor would make appropriate concessions to Tiele at the beginning. Times have changed and the situation in all aspects has changed. As long as Dayan’s fundamental interests are not shaken, it’s okay to let some Li Tiele people. It’s better than rekindling the flames of war between the two sides. It's much better to live in charcoal.
It's a pity that the emperor just couldn't see through this point. It's good for him to stick to his principles and not back down. Most of the Tiele people would accept the temptation if they failed.But the emperor insisted on restoring the conditions of the trade market to the previous level, which is not acceptable to the Tiele people.
After all, Emperor God Bless is not Emperor Chengzu, and the same words from his mouth do not have that deterrent effect.
When the negotiations entered a stalemate, there were many ministers in the DPRK who gave the emperor a statement, to the effect that maintaining the status quo was the best situation both sides could accept under the current conditions. Only Dayan and Tie Le took a step back. It is possible to discuss this matter.
In the face of many petitions, the emperor turned a blind eye to them and beat them all back. He lost his temper when he was still in the dynasty, and scolded all the courtiers who gave him papers, scolding them for being unreasonable. The national prestige of the country has lost the face of the ancestors.
Seeing that the emperor insisted on his own opinion, the officials were helpless. If the talks continued like this, the negotiations would definitely be fruitless.
When Jun Lan returned home from the imperial court, he called his three sons and Jun Lu to the study, and asked them to talk about their views on this matter.
"I think war will break out in northern Xinjiang soon." Jun Wei spoke quickly, before his brother did.
"Oh." Jun Lan responded without any surprise, nodded and said, "Wei'er, tell me why you think so."
Jun Lu thought for a while, and said without hesitation: "The emperor has always regarded himself very highly, and he always takes Emperor Chengzu as his goal. As long as Emperor Chengzu can do it, he will do it, and he wants to do it better than him, but... "
Although it was my father, son and brother talking, there was no possibility of being heard by outsiders, but Jun Wei still clicked, as long as Jun Lan and others understood what he meant, there was no need to say every word clearly, behind the scenes Talking about the emperor in private is a crime of disrespect.
Jun Lan sighed lowly when he heard the words, Jun Wei, a 13-year-old boy, could see the fact clearly, but now he is the Ninth Five Supreme, but he can't see it at all.Compared with Emperor Chengzu, he couldn't do the most basic thing of accepting advice with an open mind, let alone others.
Although his surname is no longer Wei, in terms of blood, Emperor Chengzu is still Junlan's great-grandfather.Junlan once thought about whether the stronger a person is, the more confident he is. His great-grandfather was obviously the worst born emperor among the emperors of Dayan, but when he was emperor, the atmosphere in the court was the most open. The courtiers can speak freely and say whatever they want, and it doesn't matter if they want to beat the emperor, as long as they say something reasonable, Emperor Chengzu will never get angry, and he will reward such behavior wantonly.
In those years when Emperor God Bless first came to the throne, he could still listen to people's persuasion, but after more than 30 years as the emperor, his acceptance of advice that failed to meet his own wishes has become worse and worse. Too lazy to look at it and call back.
Speaking of the border market negotiations this time, the demands of the Tiele people are unreasonable, but the bottom line given by the God Bless Emperor is also unreasonable. Both sides have such attitudes. The negotiating officials are basically wasting their saliva, which is impossible. Talk about the result.
"Ah Wei, do you think the border market will be closed if the Emperor fails to agree?" Jun Che frowned slightly, with a serious expression on his face.
After taking back all the land lost by the previous dynasty, Emperor Chengzu once said in order to secure the hearts of the surrounding vassal states that the Dayan Dynasty would not take the initiative to initiate foreign wars at any time. This move won him a very high prestige. For the rest of the year, the fact is indeed the same.
If the negotiations with Tiele break down, the emperor will definitely close the border market, which is the most effective way to attack Tiele.
The significance of Bianshi to Dayan and Tie Le is completely different, the former is icing on the cake, while the latter is a timely gift.Once the border market is closed, the Tiele people may tear up the contract at any time and send troops south. That is their best response.
But Jun Che was very worried. Has the emperor thought about how to deal with Tie Le's cavalry?
Aside from the garrisons in the border states and counties, Dayan's most effective troops are the Forbidden Army of the capital, the Dongcheng Camp and the Xicheng Camp.
The Forbidden Army is the army guarding the imperial city. The commander is the commander. The main soldiers under it are the Guard Order of the South Palace, the Guard Order of the North Palace, and the left and right. They are also called the "Northern Army" because they are stationed in the north of the city.
Dongcheng Daying and Xicheng Daying are the elite part of the Dayan army. According to Emperor Taizu's will, Dongcheng Daying is in charge of Prince Ping and Prince Jing, while Xicheng Daying is in charge of King Yong'an and King Changning.
Since Prince Jing's title has no children, King Yong'an's family has changed to the civilian route, so for a long time, the strength of the East and West Battalions was basically in the hands of King Pingjun and King Changning.
During Chengzu's reign, Prince Gong replaced King Pingjun, and the first Prince Gong, Wei Cheng, happened to be the emperor's grandfather by blood.
The military strength of the Xicheng camp has always been in the hands of the Ji family. Emperor Chengzu thought about sending King Zhaoyang to the Xicheng camp at the beginning, but the military talents of the Jun family were all given to the former Marquis Huan of Zhaoyang. What's worse is that I'm not good at this, so I had no choice but to give up in the end.
Unlike the Ji family in Changning Prince's Mansion, the talent to lead soldiers and fight is engraved in the blood, and it is not too bad to be drawn out by each generation.
"That's for sure. With the legacy of Emperor Chengzu, it is impossible for the emperor to take the initiative to send troops. But if the Tiele people rise up first, it is natural for him to fight back. If he wins the Tiele people, wouldn't he have martial arts? "The more Jun Wei spoke, the more he felt that his words made sense.
Jun Xun's face changed drastically when he heard this, and he said, "But is there any point in doing this?"
From the Taizu Emperor who founded the country to the Chengzu Emperor who returned from all over the world, the previous dozen emperors of the Wei family were either fighting or preparing for war.But those are all for a reason. The lost homeland has not been recovered, the border has been invaded, and the people have been killed. What can we do if we don’t fight.
Standing on the shoulders of the predecessors, Emperor Chengzu accomplished all his merits in one battle, and in exchange for the prosperity of the country, the prosperity of the country, the prosperity of the people and the prosperity of all nations.
It is true that Tie Le is not as peaceful as in previous years, but if they must have objections, that is not necessarily the case.In Jun Xun's view, the Tiele people just want more benefits. They reject the other party's unreasonable demands and show their attitude that it is good to maintain the status quo.
After all, the overall strength of the two countries is very different, and the Tiele people can't be so overwhelmed that they insist on confronting the Dayan Dynasty head-on.
However, the emperor deliberately wanted to force people into trouble, so as to find a reasonable reason for himself to send troops to seek martial arts, which is difficult for people to accept.
"Emperor Chengzu's literary and martial arts are the top in this dynasty, and the emperor is probably..." Jun Lu opened his mouth slowly, but he was really speechless.The so-called high ambitions and great talents are talking about people like God Blessing the Emperor. He is not as honest as the late Emperor and has self-knowledge.
When Jun Lu said this, the three Jun brothers reacted surprisingly similarly, they all shook their heads helplessly.
Seeing his sons like this, Junlan didn't know what to say, so he said softly for a long time, "When you leave this door today, you should act as if you haven't said anything or heard anything."
What's the use of understanding the emperor's mind? They have already persuaded them to persuade them, but the emperor couldn't listen to them at all. Could they still tell the emperor directly that you, an old man, should not worry about it. You are no match for Emperor Chengzu Yes, even thinking about it is impossible.
Negotiations on the border market broke down. Not only did the Tiele people not get any benefits, but they might also provoke the Emperor God Bless to close the border market.
Only Shu Han maintained a calm expression from beginning to end, as if the result of the negotiation had nothing to do with him.
Before parting, Shu Han was still in the mood to invite Ji Ning to visit him when he was free, but Ji Ning declined with a smile.
Shu Han was not angry either, and said with a confident smile: "A-Ning, believe me, we will meet again." After speaking, he got on his horse and left, not giving Ji Ning a chance to refuse.
Jun Lu heard about this from Jiang Yuan, and after Jiang Yuan finished speaking, he added a special sentence: "Little friend, you just need to know, but don't let your Ah Wei know, otherwise Ah Ning will blame me for talking too much." .”
Jiang Yuan told Junlu this matter purely as a funny thing, but Ji Ning is interested in Junwei, and is still in the stage of pursuing unsuccessfully. If Junwei finds out about this matter, he will tear down the brother station himself. suspicion.
In fact, even if Jiang Yuan didn't say anything, Jun Lu wasn't that boring. They didn't understand why Shu Han looked at Ji Ning differently, but they knew that Ji Ning had absolutely no interest in Shu Han.
"Of course I won't say it anymore, but don't you think that Shu Han's words still make sense." The other day when the war in northern Xinjiang happened, Shu Han and Ji Ning would probably meet each other, but at that time they just wanted to Kill a life-and-death opponent.
Jiang Yuan was also helpless when he heard this, waved his hand and said: "People, they are born in the blessings and don't know the blessings..." He paused here, and then asked: "Little friend, why do you think it is Changning Palace? Going on an expedition?"
"The position of the crown prince has not yet been determined. Does the emperor dare to release the second prince?" Currently, Prince Gong is in charge of Dongcheng Daying in name, but the one who really has the final say is actually the second prince Wei Sheng. He is the only prince in this generation. Trained in the barracks.
In non-wartime, the tiger amulet is in the hands of the emperor, and Prince Gong and King Changning are in charge of the troops on their behalf, and they themselves have no right to deploy troops.
But in wartime, the tiger talisman will be given away. The second prince is almost the de facto eldest son of the emperor. If he has military merits, he might not be at ease with God Bless the emperor's suspicious nature.
"Is that why you are so optimistic about the second prince?" Jiang Yuan only had one impression of his second cousin, and that was that he had no brains.
Jun Lu couldn't tell Jiang Yuan that Wei Sheng had devoted all his brains to military matters, and he couldn't do anything else. He thought for a while and said slowly: "If the second prince loses, it will be a shame to the emperor, but If he wins, how will the emperor reward him?"
In fact, based on Wei Sheng's previous performance of being held back by others and still winning the battle, Jun Lu didn't think he would lose at all.
The crux of the problem is that no one dares to use Wei Sheng boldly. The current emperor does not dare, and the future ones will not dare.As for Wei Sheng becoming the emperor himself, Jun Lu gave up the idea after thinking about it, it seemed to be a more terrifying thing.
A person like Wei Sheng is suitable to meet Emperor Xingzu, he employs no doubts, no need to worry about others, and takes care of all logistics, you just need to fight in the front, the more he wins, the happier he is, there is no merit at all. Shaker's argument, because he doesn't care.
Jiang Yuan's idea is not the same as that of Jun Lu, but he also thought of it. The emperor doesn't want a certain prince to become powerful, so if he needs to send troops, it is more likely to move the camp in the west city. As the son of Prince Changning, how can Ji Ning It is also unavoidable.
"Uncle is determined to close the border market, and none of us can stop it, so let's not talk about it." Jiang Yuan didn't bother to think about things that were beyond his ability, because it would be useless to think about it, and it would be of no use to the final The result didn't work at all.
Jiang Yuan doesn't have to think about it, because like most people in this era, he is full of confidence in Dayan's national strength.If the Tiele people really provoked a war because of this, just fight, and the heavens are dignified, and they can't deal with a mere barbarian, how is that possible.
Jiang Yuan's thinking cannot be said to be wrong, it's just that he underestimated the lower limit of the princes, they fought fiercely, and really didn't care about anything.
Jun Lu knew how tragic the wars in his previous life were, so he couldn't stop thinking about it. In any case, he had to deal with the ones that held him back the most.
The main reason for the failure of the negotiation was the emperor, but Wei Ying was the specific person in charge after all, and he wanted to perform well, but this time it was useless.
What made Wei Ying feel even more uncomfortable was that Wei Sheng stole the biggest limelight when the Tie Le Mission came.Now, the Ministry of Rites and the Shaofu are already planning the wedding for Wei Sheng. He has his mother's family Xu's family, his original wife's family's Zhou family, and soon he will have more grandchildren's family.
Wei Ying was very dissatisfied with this situation, so he summoned his advisers to discuss countermeasures in the mansion.
Apart from Wu Pei and Lu Qingliang who followed Wei Ying inseparably on weekdays, there is also a middle-aged man in the Sixth Prince's Mansion today.
Wei Ying respected this person very much, so he asked his opinion first, Wei Sheng's advantage became more and more obvious, which made him very embarrassed now.
Going all out to compete with Wei Sheng will put him on the bright side in the future. Right now, the third prince Wei Zhan and the fourth prince Wei Ang are still standing still, which is not the best policy.
But if there is no dispute, what if Wei Sheng really takes the position? His age, his background, his son, and his power in the army are all unmatched by other princes.
"Your Highness, please be safe and don't be impatient. Your Highness is not your main opponent, not now, nor in the future." The middle-aged scribe spoke slowly, his voice was not high, but it was unexpectedly full of quiet power, and It calmed Wei Ying's emotions very well.
"How do you say this, sir, please explain clearly." In fact, Wei Ying understands the truth, he just needs someone to affirm himself.
The middle-aged scribe took a deep look at Wei Ying, and said unhurriedly: "Your Highness must have known what happened on the Qianqiu Festival. Even if we don't know the inside story, we can be sure that the prince is I really offended the emperor. The reason why the emperor didn't abolish the crown prince was because he felt that the reputation of being a waste prince was not good. Anyway, the crown prince died soon, and preserving his position as the crown prince also fulfilled his good reputation. The prince has no goodwill and patience, and the empress is undoubtedly the most disturbed. Whoever is the most threatening to His Highness is the one she hates the most. Especially the empress has always believed that the poisoning of the prince in the past was related to Concubine Xu Yes. So no matter how popular the Second Highness is, the Sixth Highness doesn’t have to take it to heart, if he has no chance, the empress will definitely drag him down.”
"That's what I said, but the empress and His Royal Highness are one. The emperor doesn't want to see the prince anymore. Could it be that he just..." Wei Ying asked some questions, so Lu Qingliang asked him with a wink. Also his own doubts.
The middle-aged scribe smiled slightly, and said calmly: "In the harem, the mother, the son, the son, and the mother's honor always complement each other. But our empress, her greatest reliance is not His Royal Highness, but Emperor Ruizong, that is the truth. The foundation of her standing."
The first emperor was Emperor Ruizong's adopted nephew from his brother, and his intention of marrying his successor to Emperor Ruizong's granddaughter couldn't be more obvious.As long as Empress Shangguan does not commit serious crimes such as treason and treason, her status will be as stable as a rock.
The prince's body has been ruined long ago, and now it's time to wait, Empress Shangguan has nothing to contend with, when she was concentrating on dealing with one person, there was absolutely nothing she couldn't do, Wei Sheng bumped into Empress Shangguan's gun head-on Well, that's his bad luck.
Wei Ying had thought about this before, but he wasn't sure if his thoughts were right.
Now that the middle-aged scribe said the same thing, Wei Ying felt relieved. He thanked him with a smile, and asked politely, "In my opinion, sir, what should I do next?"
"The emperor first promoted His Highness the Second Highness and His Highness the Fourth Highness in the marriage, and then gave the Sixth Highness a chance in the errands. It can be seen that he does not want any Highness to be superior to others. In other words——" The middle-aged scribe paused for a while, Said in a deep voice: "The emperor has no intention of establishing a reserve for the time being."
Wei Ying's heart sank when she heard the words, and the husband said it in his heart again, but after him, the little princes are too young, the oldest Xiao Shi is only nine years old this year, Xiao Shi is less than eight years old, Xiao Shi Er was just six years old, and the youngest fourteenth guard, Pan, had just turned three years old.
Who could it be? Could it be Wei Pan? He is the father's favorite son right now...
"There are two possibilities for the so-called not to establish a prince. One is that the emperor feels that he is in the prime of his age, so there is no need for it for the time being; the other is that the emperor has a heart for a certain little prince, but he is too young, so we have to wait a few years." Middle-aged While talking, the scribe paid attention to the change of Wei Ying's expression, "But no matter what it is, it doesn't mean that His Royal Highness has no chance. What you have to seize is these few years."
"Please advise, sir." Of course Wei Ying knew that she had to hurry up, but she was still a little at a loss as to how to do it.
Seeing that Wei Ying was eager to ask for advice instead of expressing unwillingness because of her words, the middle-aged scribe was very satisfied, and continued: "Compared to the second and third highnesses and fourth highnesses, the biggest disadvantage of the sixth highness is that the mother's family is not strong, so you must marry To a concubine with an excellent background. The mother family and wife family are the most important and most steadfast support for the princes, which cannot be replaced by others. Then His Royal Highness, you must pay attention to your words and deeds. You can make people feel yourself You are kind and easy to talk, but you can't let everyone in the court think so. You are still an ordinary prince. If the emperor notices that your popularity is particularly good, it is not a good thing. And the most important thing is that the sixth prince must show that he loves his brothers It's obvious that the emperor loves the little princes, you have to make the emperor realize that it's safest for them to have you."
Wei Ying froze for a moment, and then showed a clear smile.Among the grown-up princes, Wei Ying's background is the lowest, and he doesn't have a mother's family to rely on, so since childhood, Wei Ying has been using other methods to win connections for himself, and it is necessary for a corporal to be a virtuous man.
The words of the middle-aged scribe reminded Wei Ying that it is important to win people over, but it is also very dangerous to bury too many nails in the palace.Also, for the ministers in the court, it is better to have a small number of loyalists than to bring in a large number of fools, which will not easily arouse the fear of the father.
Think about it, for an ordinary prince, people everywhere say good things about him, in the eyes of the emperor, it is actually not a good thing.
He was negligent in treating his younger brothers and sisters kindly. The emperor was old, and the relationship between the emperor and the adult princes was more important than the relationship between father and son, but the underage princes were even more loved by him. It was impossible for the emperor not to worry about himself. What will happen to the younger sons.
Wei Ying quickly figured out the last two points, so she said sincerely, "Thank you sir for your guidance, but...a lady of a high family may not be suitable for you."
He had calculated for a long time before finding out that Junlu was the most suitable in all aspects. Unfortunately, before he succeeded, the emperor gave Junjia a marriage to the fourth child, which completely disrupted his plan.
"Who said there is no? There is no one in the Jun family who is the most suitable." Wei Ying originally wanted to ask the middle-aged scribe if there was any suitable candidate, but what he said next made Wei Ying dumbfounded, and even asked I doubted my ears a little, whether he heard it wrong.
"Jun's family?!" Wei Ying mistakenly thought that she had heard it wrong, and it took a long time before she said softly: "The county head of Zhaoyang Prince's Mansion has already pointed it out to the fourth child. How can there be a reason why there are two princes and concubines in one family? won't do that."
The middle-aged scribe shook his head lightly, and said in a deep voice, "Everything is possible, everything is possible."
Seeing that Wei Ying didn't understand, the middle-aged scribe said again: "Could it be that His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince thinks that as long as the emperor proposes marriage, the girl's natal family will fully support the prince. Other families may be like this, such as the Guoguo government, the king If it’s at home, it’s hard to say.”
Wei Ying nodded subconsciously. He had thought about this matter, and even thought about the means to win over the Jun family in the future.
"It goes without saying that His Highness the Second Highness and the Guoguo Government are a strong alliance, but whether the Zhaoyang Prince's Mansion thinks highly of the Fourth Highness, that's another matter." The middle-aged scribe obviously did enough homework in advance, speaking of The situation of each family is well known.
Wei Sheng is married to his stepmother, and his first wife left behind the eldest son, but this does not affect the Sun family's support for Wei Sheng in the slightest.
Because Wei Sheng's situation is so good, the Sun family will not be overwhelmed. What is it to have an eldest son? As long as Wei Sheng can be in power, as long as his own daughter can give birth to a son, the child without a mother will always suffer more, but that is all in the future. , it is still important to cooperate well now.
The situation of the Jun family and the Sun family is completely different. Not to mention that the throne of the Jun family is hereditary, the key point is that the throne of their family is still passed down from the prince.From the standpoint of the Jun family, they have no further aspirations, and it is enough to be honest and loyal to the emperor.
When the county head of the Jun family marries Wei Ang, that is marriage, which does not represent the attitude of Zhaoyang Palace itself at all.
If Wei Ang is decent, he still has a chance to slowly gain support from the Jun family in the future.However, Wei Ang is not. This is not to say that Wei Ang is incapable. If so, Wei Ying doesn't need to regard him as one of his opponents.
Wei Ang's problem lies in his personal morality. He himself said that he should not live without a woman for a day. It would be great if his daughter could be a prince and concubine if he was replaced by other people who are in power. He would not care so much. Yes, they will take great care.
"The king of Zhaoyang loves his daughters like his life. It is not unusual for him to look down on the fourth child, but his father has already given him a marriage, so he can't shirk it." The benefits of marrying Junjia are certainly not as good as Junlu, but as long as they are members of the Jun family , it is worth more than many others.
Seeing that Wei Ying still didn't understand what he meant, the middle-aged scribe slowly said: "Your Highness Six's words are wrong. The emperor personally bestowed the marriage, and King Zhaoyang certainly cannot resign. But this does not mean that he is willing to give his daughter the marriage. Marrying the Fourth Highness is completely different."
"I can't refuse, and I don't want to marry my daughter. Does King Zhaoyang have a third choice?" Wei Ying explained the mystery.
Who would have thought that the middle-aged scribe would show approval, nodded and said, "Hasn't the Sixth Highness already thought of it?"
"This, this..." Wei Ying hesitated to speak, with disbelief written all over her face.How is it possible, no matter how dissatisfied with the emperor's gift of marriage, the Jun family has more than one daughter, and they will marry as soon as they get married. At worst, they will not support the fourth child in the future. How can they be so bold.
"It's certain that King Zhaoyang doesn't want to marry his daughter, but if you say that he will do something to His Royal Highness because of this, that's not necessarily..." The middle-aged scholar said, and then went back, "If someone helps him After accomplishing this, King Zhaoyang must be very grateful."
Before the middle-aged scribe finished speaking, Wei Ying already had a complete plan in mind.He got rid of the fourth child first, and it would be best to drag the Zhaoyang Palace into the water, but for the time being, he couldn't let them know that he was involved.According to the rules of the royal family, the prince and concubine who has been given a marriage, even if the wedding is not completed, and the prince dies before the marriage, they still have to marry the spiritual position.He can come forward at that time and say that he is willing to marry Junjia. How can the royal family be guarded? It is too late for King Zhaoyang to thank him, and he will definitely agree, and things will be easier in the future.
It is not difficult to deal with Wei Ang. Wei Ying didn't attack before because he didn't want to get burned, but this time he can bring him the help of Zhaoyang Palace, so he has to seriously consider what method to use seems more natural.
The middle-aged scribe was very relieved to see that Wei Ying understood his intentions, and at the same time reminded: "Your Highness Sixth, it is not difficult to accomplish this matter, but the difficulty is to keep the emperor from thinking about it. We still need to discuss how to do it. Only then can we start."
Wei Ying nodded slowly, with a confident smile on her face. In this way, Wei Sheng and Wei Ang are basically not a problem.
In the blink of an eye, it's September, and the wedding of the second prince Wei Sheng is approaching.Originally, the second prince's marriage was not so hasty, and even if it is marrying a second concubine, it should take about a year to prepare, otherwise it would seem too immodest.
But Wei Sheng changed his temper at some point, and took his precious son with him wherever he went, for fear that someone would snatch him away.
The emperor currently has only one grandson, and he loves it very much on weekdays, but the son and grandson are so boring, the emperor can't stand it, and asked Concubine Xu to ask what happened.
Wei Sheng told the truth, someone was going to kill his son, the little Huangsun first fell into the water in the palace, and then was poisoned in the mansion.Fortunately, he reacted quickly and replaced the nurse in time when he found out that there was something wrong with the nurse, otherwise his son would have been killed.
He has no wife now, and his concubine is not qualified to raise the eldest son, so what else can he do other than look after his son himself.
The emperor couldn't laugh or cry when he heard the words, it seemed that there was no mistress in the mansion, it was shameful, so he moved Wei Sheng's wedding date forward.
The marriage of the second prince is a great joy in the palace, and Princess Ankang and Princess Anle will also enter the palace to congratulate.Coming out of the palace, the two eldest princesses sighed, and what they sighed was their son's marriage, and their grandson who didn't know when.
"Sister, Ah Yuan and Ah Li have been engaged for half a year, what are you going to do?" Princess An Le asked worriedly.
If we only look at the effect, Master Yuan Hui's method is very good. Since Jiang Yuan got engaged to Jun Lv, there have been no such strange and strange misfortunes. It's just that this kind of deception is not a long-term strategy.
Right now, Jun Lu is young and doesn't involve talking about marriage, but he will be fourteen in a few years, and he is not far away from these things.
Jun Lu is the only seedling of Langya Jun's family's direct branch. There are so many people in Jun's family, they all hope that he will get married and have children soon.Jiang Yuan took the title of fiancé, and Jun Lu couldn't say goodbye, so their marriage either became real or had to be annulled.
Princess Anle thought about it, and didn't know what her sister would do, so she accidentally mentioned it today, so she asked directly.
"To be honest, I certainly hope that they are just acting on the spot. As a mother, who doesn't want to see her son get married, get married and have children." Because it was in front of her own sister, Princess Ankang spoke without water at all. I dare not do this again, and sometimes I even think, just let Yuan'er really get married, and the throne is nothing compared to his safety." Once Jiang Yuan gets married, the position of King Changning will still remain. Whether it can be passed on depends on the emperor's mood.
"It's easy for you to say, is brother-in-law willing? Is the concubine willing? And Ah Yuan, that kid looks easy-going on the surface, but in fact he is very stubborn. If he refuses, this matter will be impossible." An Lechang The princess didn't like her sister's idea at all.
Princess Ankang sighed, and continued: "Our family's attitude is still trivial. I can always persuade the prince and mother-in-law. Even Yuan'er, I can hold back, and I'm not afraid of him making a fuss. The key is the Jun family, they Whether you want it or not is the point.”
It's about Jiang Yuan's life, and the attitude of King Changning and Concubine Ankang is not worried. If she can figure it out, they can figure it out too.On the contrary, it was the Jun's family, they agreed to be engaged to be benevolent and righteous, and it is really too embarrassing for them to do a fake show for real.
Especially since Jun Lu is not the son of King Zhaoyang, it is even more difficult to say some things. If he talks too much, he is simply bullying others.
"But sister, don't worry too much. I heard from Aning that the relationship between Ah Yuan and the young master of the Jun family is very good. In the past six months, they often go out to play. They really mean it."
"I asked them to get engaged at the beginning because I wanted them to get in touch with each other more, and then they would have feelings. Otherwise, it would be impossible to make a fake show." Princess Ankang admitted that she had made two-handed preparations and made adjustments according to the actual situation at any time. "At the beginning, Ah Hui and I agreed that Yuan'er and Ah Li were engaged for three years. After three years, they would either dissolve the engagement or formally get married. There are still two and a half years left. Let's see again. We will have to ask at that time What is Master Yuan Hui's idea, anyway, the worst result is that grandchildren and grandchildren will not be able to hug each other."
In Princess Ankang's vision, the worst situation is that Jiang Yuan and Jun Lu must get married, but they are unwilling.Then it can only be a husband and wife in name, Jiang Yuan will not interfere with the law in the future, take concubines and have children, and the two will live their lives under the name of husband and wife.
After talking about Jiang Yuan, the two eldest princesses changed the topic to Ji Ning, and the eldest princess Ankang asked, "How are Ah Ning and Ah Wei?"
"It's still the same. If you say we are friends, it seems to be more intimate, but if you say it means that, it doesn't look like it." Princess Anle was also gloomy when talking about her son. Yes, Ah Wei also said that he wants to take the imperial examination."
Without the special circumstances that Jiang Yuan had to marry, Princess Anle would definitely not allow her son to marry.Then at the Jun family, don't say that Jun Wei is unwilling, even if he is willing, Princess Anle believes that King Zhaoyang and Princess Xie are also unwilling.
It is obviously impossible for two people. Princess Anle couldn't figure out why her son, who had been smart for the first time, was in trouble in this matter. Wouldn't it be good to be friends with Jun Wei? If he insisted on going further, he would simply be embarrassing himself.
"Sons are all debts, and they were born to collect debts." Princess Ankang was silent for a moment, and finally concluded.
Princess Anle laughed, and then lowered her voice and said: "The one from the East Palace is dying, probably won't make it through this year." When mentioning Prince Wei Yi, Princess Anle's face was solemn, her eyes were so cold that they could pierce people.
"It's too cheap for him..." Princess Ankang said angrily.Letting Wei Yi die as the crown prince was a situation neither the two princesses wanted to see, but the emperor had a good face, and unless the crown prince rebelled, he would definitely not abolish him.
However, after the Qianqiu Festival, Wei Yi was ill and did not even attend the Emperor's Longevity Festival.It is really too difficult for such Wei Yi to rebel against him. The two princesses thought about it for a long time, but in the end they were helpless.
"I don't want him to die like this, I'm not reconciled." Princess Anle recalled the past ten years ago, and her hatred could hardly be concealed.
"Sister, I want to try again, do you want to come?" If Wei Yi's reputation was ruined, Princess Anle would not be able to pass her own test.
Princess Ankang seldom saw such an expression on her younger sister's face, so she couldn't help but said in a deep voice, "What are you going to do?"
Princess Anle leaned over and breathed out two words in her sister's ear.
Although Princess Anle's voice was very low and there was absolutely no possibility of it being heard by outsiders, Princess Ankang's face changed dramatically when she heard the words: "No, this is too dangerous. Once exposed..."
It's one thing for them to want revenge, but it's meaningless if they involve themselves and their whole family.
"I can't bear to let him be buried as a prince, I really can't bear it..." Princess An Le murmured.
"If my sister doesn't want to, I'll just do it myself." Regardless of success or failure, this is their last chance.
"No, you can't do it yourself, neither can the two of us, you must tell the prince." It involves the future and future of the two families, and the family members are not allowed to know what to say. On the contrary, it will be higher.
