Consort, she is reborn

The Ministry of Rites and Si Tianjian quickly calculated the time for the crown prince canonization ceremony.Most of the courtiers were clear-sighted. After seeing the decisiveness and urgency of the emperor's establishment of the crown prince, no one would choose to delay, so the time was set very close.

Mingda flipped through the memorial sent by the Ministry of Rites: "Si Tianjian set the time for the grand ceremony at the winter solstice, which is not bad."

The winter solstice originally had a grand ceremony for offering sacrifices to heaven, and the emperor usually went there in person unless he was seriously ill.Since it is necessary to register as a crown prince this year, it is natural to offer sacrifices to the heavens and ancestors. Doing the two things at the same time is more or less considered for the emperor to save trouble.But Mingda felt that the emperor might not be able to bear the cumbersomeness of offering sacrifices to the heavens. The biggest advantage of setting the ceremony at the winter solstice is that it is close enough. After all, the winter solstice is only half a month away.

Mingda then sent people to the Ritual Department to keep an eye on them, making sure that no mistakes were made in their hasty preparations.On the other hand, she also began to investigate the three palaces quickly. After all, the eldest princess was very vengeful and did not intend to let them go.

There are countless dignitaries and dignitaries in the capital. On the surface they look beautiful, but inside they are filthy and filthy.

People are always like this, they can't help but start to swell when they get power, and there are very few who can keep their hearts.In other words, if Her Royal Highness really wants to target any investigation, there are definitely very few that can stand the investigation, even these three palaces are no exception-they may have been cautious in their words and deeds in the past, but they have not been able to do so in the past ten years. Gradually he became arrogant and self-indulgent, and the number of children and servants who committed crimes was unknown.

Within two days, Mingda's subordinates collected a lot of evidence of crimes committed by the Three Princes' House, and placed them neatly on Mingda's desk.

Tang Zhao flipped through a few pages in his free time, and then put the evidence back, so as not to get angry after reading too much.Then she tapped on a pile of evidence with her slender fingers, and asked Mingda, "When is Your Highness going to do it?"

Mingda also felt angry when he saw this pile of things, so he said, "Before the winter solstice, keeping them is not only bad, but may cause trouble."

Hearing this, Tang Zhao agreed very much, and chatted with Mingda for a few words, but did not leave.Mingda knew her very well, and when he saw her like this, he knew that she probably had something to do, but he didn't know how to say it.

Mingda hesitated for a while, and finally chose the latter between waiting quietly or actively asking: "What's the matter, Ah Zhao is so hesitant, but you have something to tell me?"

Hearing Mingda's question, Tang Zhao seemed relieved, and the hesitation hidden in his heart finally came to fruition: "There is one thing, I think it might be better to tell His Highness in advance." She paused, seeing that Mingda hadn't After questioning, he said again: "Doctor Yu Shi is a supporter of Emperor Yanping. His Highness sent people to monitor his residence. I don't know if it is a coincidence. Song Yang has appeared near the Qin residence twice these days."

After all, the small gatherings in the Flower Hall of the Qin Mansion are secret. Even though there are people watching outside the mansion, when everyone enters the mansion, they don't enter the mansion through the main entrance, nor the side entrance, nor the back corner door, but a specially dug secret passage.

As a result, the hidden guards were unable to directly capture the gathering crowd, and even because the Qin Mansion was surrounded by official residences, it was difficult to tell whether there was something wrong with the officials who appeared nearby.But Song Yang was an exception, because his home was not nearby, and the timing of his two appearances near the Qin Mansion was too coincidental, so he was listed as a typical example by the hidden guard and sent back the news.

Tang Zhao recently helped Mingda handle a lot of affairs, so he saw the news first, but Mingda didn't know it yet.She thought for a while when she heard the name, and asked, "Is that your concubine brother?!"

Song Yang's surname is Song, so of course he is not Tang Zhao's concubine brother, but Song Ting's.

Tang Zhao nodded when he heard the words, and said: "He has three behaviors. I didn't have much contact with him in the past. He was still young at that time, but he was competitive everywhere in the Duke's mansion. Sometimes he would not hesitate to frame his brother for his father's attention. You can tell he's an ambitious guy."

Ten years ago, Song Ting was still a teenager, and Song Yang was younger than her, so there were naturally many flaws in his actions.This was not only seen by Song Ting, but also by Duke Ding, who had more experience.He didn't like this concubine very much, but he had to admit that besides Song Ting, he was the best among the other sons.

When Song Ting was there, he naturally dominated Song Yang everywhere, but after Song Ting died, Song Yang was also considered to be the number one in the Duke's mansion.He thought that if he got rid of his elder brother, he should be the best candidate for the crown prince, but he didn't expect Duke Ding to drag it out for ten years and didn't invite the crown prince.

Tang Zhao has also inquired about the Dingguo Mansion these days, and the results are neither good nor bad - because Ding Guogong leads the army all the year round, the Guogong Mansion is relatively low-key, but the mansion For the undecided position of the son of the eldest son, he fought almost like a black-eyed chicken.Song Yang wanted to be strong everywhere, but he didn't see that he really overwhelmed everyone, and he was very anxious from left to right.

After listening to Tang Zhao's narration, Ming Da came to understand: "Do you think that Song Yang took refuge in Emperor Yanping for the sake of his son's position?"

Tang Zhao nodded: "He has been unscrupulous since he was a child, so it is not surprising that he chooses this way."

After hearing this, Ming Da felt confused, after all, Emperor Yanping was not a good object of refuge.Regardless of the fact that he still has a group of fans in the imperial court, such as the imperial censor, but these are old ministers, and they served Emperor Yanping very early.Now that the country is prosperous and the people are safe, normal people would not think that rebellion is an easy task, so why did Song Yang seek refuge with Emperor Yanping? !

After thinking about it for a while, he felt a little weird, but Mingda also understood Tang Zhao's meaning - Duke Ding was away leading the army, and his disobedient son was involved in the rebellion, as usual, the entire Duke's mansion would be implicated.

I heard Tang Zhao say: "Song Yang's choice is understandable for him to bear on his own, but his father is loyal to His Majesty. He has not dared to say that he has worked hard in guarding the frontier these years. At least he is worthy of the grace of God. I really don't want to see him being burdened by others... "

If it were someone else, Mingda wouldn't care about all this, since he dared to gamble, he would have to pay the price, and it would also be a price for the whole family.But looking at Tang Zhao's face, she took care of Duke Ding's mansion more or less, so she nodded and agreed: "I know, if Duke Ding has no second thoughts, naturally he won't be implicated. The crowd is also ordinary."

Tang Zhao has been entangled in this matter for a few days, knowing the law so it is difficult to speak.But she didn't want Mingda to be so straightforward, she was a little happy, and when she was excited, she took Mingda into her arms and kissed her on the forehead: "Thank you, Your Highness."

Mingda was smiling, but reached out and tapped on his red lips: "Thank you, you can only be sincere if you kiss here."

Tang Zhao blushed, looked left and right to see if there was no one in the hall, and quickly pecked Mingda's lips.

Mingda was dissatisfied with such a thank you gift, so he hooked Tang Zhao's neck and pulled him back.

After all, Song Yang is just a small person, the concubine of the Duke's Mansion.Mingda didn't take him seriously, and Tang Zhao wouldn't have taken him seriously if he hadn't been involved in Dingguo's mansion.

Taking advantage of the few days before the winter solstice, Mingda began to make drastic repairs to the clan—not only the three mansions of King Cheng, King Fu, and King Lu, but the entire royal family has been very impetuous these years.

Thirty years ago, Emperor Wuxing seized the throne of Emperor Yanping. At that time, the royal family was cleaned up, and all capable brothers were sent to see Tai | Zu.In the accident 11 years ago, the lineage of Emperor Wuxing was slaughtered again, leaving only the emperor and Mingda.After coming and going, the royal family, which was supposed to be flourishing, seemed a little withered.

Jinshang is not a strict person, seeing the clan withered, he didn't suppress it too much.Now that more than ten years have passed, these clans have not only given birth to a large number of children, but also started to do whatever they want based on their status.

In the past, Mingda didn't check these things, because no one dared to make a fuss in front of her, but this time when she investigated the Three Kings, she did a random check, and the result almost made the eldest princess overturn the table in anger.

What encroaching on fertile land, what bullying men and women, don't do too much of this kind of thing, there are even people who carelessly ignore human lives!

Perhaps Mingda should be thankful that most of the clans left behind after two purges were mediocre, and they failed to hold important positions in the court.Otherwise, it depends on the courage of these people. They dare to do everything if they are afraid of corrupting the law and selling officials.

Her Royal Highness was angry, so together with the three kings, all the clans were repaired.It's just that Mingda, another family's clan, was still concerned about his feelings, and didn't really take him out of the nobility and put him in prison, but just beat him hard and warned him.Only the Three Kings' Mansion was in bad luck, and all the crimes that were brought forward were serious crimes that should be executed according to the law. Within two days, the whole family was sent to prison.

Because of Mingda's tossing, the clan originally complained a lot, but after seeing her harsh methods against the three kings, these clans were like chickens with their throats strangled, and they dared not speak up anymore—this is killing chickens to make an example to monkeys, It is definitely to scare the chickens and monkeys!

No one wanted to follow in the footsteps of the three kings, so the clan that had just started to quarrel died down in an instant, and settled down again.

Seeing this, Mingda was angry and funny, and complained to Tang Zhao in private: "Back then, the Tai|Zu was a hero who settled the troubled times and ruled the world. As a result, this was not passed on to several generations, and the rest are all cowardly It's trash."

What can Tang Zhao say about this?Can she say that the shrewd and capable clans were all cleaned up by the late emperor?Of course it is impossible, so I had to follow Mingda's words and say: "It's just that the clan of this generation is unreliable, and the next generation can be brought into the palace to be trained. Ah Zhen is still young and has no siblings. It is also a good idea to train him some right-hand men. necessary."

Mingda is right to think about it, but in this troubled time, she can't take more actions, lest she really annoy the clan to retaliate.He had to wait until everything subsided before starting to train the younger generation.

Without mentioning these bad things, Ming Da casually picked up another memorial, which was about the arrangement of offering sacrifices to heaven during the winter solstice.

Speaking of offering sacrifices to heaven, Mingda thought of the emperor's brother in Xuanshi Hall again, and his face looked much better: "Azhao, have you noticed that the emperor's complexion and spirit have improved a lot recently? If this continues, maybe this winter will also be good." Get over it."

The emperor was in poor health, especially in winter.The imperial physician said earlier that if the emperor could survive this winter, he might be able to survive another year or even longer.

Mingda was delighted because of this, but Tang Zhao didn't answer when he heard the words, instead he was a little secretive.
