Chapter 22 Unfavorable Prince

When it came to He Wanqing's Qianqiu Festival, the second prince was present.

The Changshengzi also appeared in a grand manner. He no longer had a few strands of yellow hair dyed in the beginning, but his hair had grown long, and he was wearing a Taoist robe that showed his character.In addition, eyes are like bright stars, lips are red and teeth are white, and his spirit is brilliant. At first glance, he is really tall and tall, like a jade tree in Yaolin, so it is naturally a foreign object.

In a word, it can bluff people.

Even if all the civil and military officials screamed in their hearts, they had to admit that he was a superior person.

Not to mention that the Changshengzi also brought a matchlock gun that was the direct prototype of the rifle of later generations, which can be said to have shocked everyone during the demonstration in the martial arts field.

When all the ministers returned to their seats, they were still in a daze. After Emperor Jingtai came back to his senses, Long Yan was very happy, and he couldn't put it down playing with the arquebus that was said to be dedicated to He Wanqing.

All in all, except for He Wanqing who was not too happy about being robbed of the limelight, everyone in this Qianqiu Festival was in high spirits, and they paid far less attention to the Changshengzi than to the arquebus and what it would bring.

After the Qianqiu Festival, just as Gu Qing had expected, the appearance of firearms such as firecrackers, matchlock guns, and burst guns brought a new type of arms to the Great Zhou Dynasty——

Emperor Jingtai specially set up the Shenji Battalion to be in charge of firearm training and to cooperate with infantry and cavalry in combat.

The establishment of the first response is also different from other garrisons.

At the very beginning, the scale of the Shenji Battalion was still small, but everyone knew its prospects and importance. Both inside and outside the court were eyeing the candidate for the position of the leader of the Shenji Battalion. There is a pattern that has a pivotal impact.

The Ministry of Industry is fine, as far as it is concerned, they are in charge of coordinating craftsmen and mass producing firearms in secret.This is also an important and cumbersome project, and the Ministry of Industry dare not relax.

Regarding the selection of the leader of the Shenji Battalion, the Second Prince's Party also brought this matter up to Gu Qing. Gu Qing made an agreement with them to delineate a few candidates, and he would not be able to participate in the matter of working behind the scenes.

As for privately, Gu Qing didn't go to the commander of Shenji Camp, he intended to organize the troops of Shenji Camp, and quietly sent a group of troops to Shenji Camp.

Afterwards, he turned his attention to the Firearms Workshop. Even after throwing such a large stone on the seemingly calm water at Lingtai Temple, when everyone focused on the Shenji Camp, Suddenly half of the mountain collapsed in Lingtai Temple.

The Changshengzi declared to Emperor Jingtai that it was God's punishment for revealing the secrets to him, just like the Sanqing Temple was struck by lightning.

The difference is that the Changshengzi will not retreat this time. He said that he will take his followers to travel around the world to comprehend and publicize the Tao that he has learned from the catastrophe. If he can use this to educate the people, then he will It is a merit.

Emperor Jingtai was greatly moved.

He Wanqing rolled her eyes straight away, this sounds nice, but in fact, Changsheng was out of money and wanted to escape.This is not a dead beggar pretending to be a magic stick, he is still self-aware.

Listening to Emperor Jingtai saying that the eldest son is going to form a sect of his own, and that he wants to give him a sect name to show his love, He Wanqing thought of something, and raised his lips with a smile: "I think it should be called the Bailian sect."

Emperor Jingtai naturally adopted He Wanqing's suggestion, and personally bestowed on his eldest son the Christian name Bailian.

The eldest son: "..."

Gu Qing: "..."

It wasn't enough for He Wanqing to propose a magic machine camp before, but now he is addicted to nominations, isn't he?As long as that Shenjiying said it, Gu Qing felt it was appropriate.

Just this White Lotus Sect?In history, the White Lotus Sect was only a branch of Buddhism at first, exhorting people to do good, but because of its simple teachings, it was accepted by the people at the bottom. Later, it was often used as a tool to organize the people to resist oppression, and gradually became a synonym for reactionary uprising. .

When He Wanqing mentioned it, maybe it was just a bad joke, but Gu Qing heard that the name really has some meaning.

So Gu Qing readily accepted.

He also thought that this was He Wanqing's rare shining spot.

Besides, Changshengzi left the capital this time to avoid the undercurrents in the capital.When the various forces in the capital came to their senses, he had already left the capital according to the order, and disappeared like mud in the sea. He was also said to have a superb ability to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

Also, because of the firearms and the Divine Machine Battalion, the balance that had been maintained for a long time in the court seemed to be completely broken.

It was said to be completely broken, because the original balance was gradually broken because of the entry of the second prince, Situ Heng, and the courtiers began to stand in line one after another.This point can be seen from the rivalry between the first assistant Yang Xun and the second assistant He Bozheng in the cabinet.

You must know that before the Yang family turned to the second prince, the chief assistant Yang Xun's posture had always been neutral, and he seemed to be devoted to Emperor Jingtai, and he always defied the arrogance of the prince's uncle He Bozheng.

It's just that as the situation in the court gradually becomes clear, this cannot be solved in a big way.

Especially now that the Shenji Battalion has grown from scratch for more than half a year, and is gradually getting on the right track. Not only are they practicing firearms, but they also have the heavy responsibility of guarding the capital. Under the premise, his impartiality made He Bozheng very dissatisfied, thinking that it was a sign that he was going to favor the second prince.

Then listen to how the chief assistant Yang Xun spoke in front of Emperor Jingtai. Wang Bi used this to reduce Emperor Jingtai's wariness of the Second Prince's Party and win more power for the Second Prince's Party.

What's more, Emperor Jingtai didn't dismiss Yang Xun's statement as before.

This is not what He Bozheng wants to see.

One more thing, now that Gu Qing has a much stronger sense of existence as the second prince, and he is getting older, and seeing that he will reach the weak crown in the next year, then his marriage should also be put on the agenda.

Similarly, the time has come for the crown prince to appoint a concubine.

The crown prince's main concubine, if nothing unexpected happens, will be the future queen, the mother of a country.

There are quite a few people staring at this position, and the girl from the He family is second to none.He Bozheng has a prostitute, He Ruwan, who is a year older than the prince, but it doesn't matter if she is a year older. Regardless of her family background, appearance, or even her relationship with the prince, it is clear that she must be the princess.

Both He Ruwan and the He family think so, as can be seen from He Ruwan's name.

It's just that there is an extra "one" that is unstable in the matter of being sure at the moment.

The governor of Guangdong and Guangxi has a daughter of the right age, and He Bozheng feared that Emperor Jingtai believed the evil of Yang Xun, the first assistant, and promised He Ruwan to the second prince to make the second prince more determined to assist the prince, just like Taizong's natal family in the past It's like the cousin married the virtuous king.

None of this is what He Bozheng likes to see, and he is even less happy to see the second prince gradually gaining power, so he went to discuss with the prince's family how to suppress the second prince as hard as possible, and at the same time asked Mrs. He to enter the palace to meet He Wanqing, implying that the court has changed.

He Ruwan wanted to please her aunt and future mother-in-law, so she obsessed with Mrs. He and entered Zhaohua Palace together.

After the irrelevant palace people were screened away, and He Wanqing was left with the loyalty amulet, Mrs. He shared He Bozheng's worries one by one.

He Ruwan was sitting under Mrs. He as a charming daughter, but she didn't expect to hear such a change, her eyes turned red with grievance, and her voice was a little high-pitched: "What kind of family is our He family? What kind of person is the second prince, how can he be called into our family?"

The people inside the house thought it was nothing, but the palace guards outside the house heard it with sharp ears, and hated themselves for bringing their ears.

Before Mrs. He took He Ruwan away from the gate of the imperial city, Gu Qing got the letter, along with He Ruwan's lofty remarks.

The eunuch's head was lowered to the ground.

Wei Shoucheng was trembling with anger.

Gu Qing didn't see any trace of anger, and even laughed a few times.

Wei Shoucheng immediately fell to his knees: "Master?"

Gu Qing sighed sincerely: "Such a pure and unaffected girl is rare." With He Ruwan extrapolating the He family and He Wanqing, Gu Qing has reason to believe that He Wanqing will not follow the basic law of Gongdou.

That is to say, when faced with He Bozheng's worries, He Wanqing would not think about how to suppress an opponent like him, but would most likely start directly from Emperor Jingtai, and the possibility of persuading Emperor Jingtai to give up immediately was the greatest.

The probability of Emperor Jingtai agreeing is not low.

Thinking of this, Gu Qing wanted to know more and more whether the items that He Wanqing exchanged from the Concubine Concubine System had a high chance of triggering the debuff of reducing intelligence?Maybe it's time to study it.

Just as Gu Qing speculated, He Wanqing saw that there was an obstacle in her way to become the empress dowager, so she finally thought of pulling out the bottom line.

After all, He Wanqing's understanding of the previous dynasty was still superficial. She thought that Emperor Jingtai was still in power, and the position of the crown prince was only slightly shaken, but it was still very stable. Moreover, Emperor Jingtai also said that he would abdicate to the crown prince early, and then Swim in the mountains and rivers with her, and be a couple of gods and gods.

Even if it's a concentric knot at work.

Anyway, she is the one who doesn't care what kind of turmoil will be caused by the enthronement of Emperor Jingtai and the crown prince. She is most concerned about her points and herself.

Although Emperor Jingtai, who was tied with one heart, did not agree, but he did not veto it, and even thought about the Zen seat.

When the movement of the Zhenggan Palace was secretly leaked out, the ministers: "!!!"

The Prince's family has not received any news yet, but the Second Prince's Party has received the news.Those few key ministers all had mysterious faces. They knew that Emperor Jingtai was bewildered by the He family, but they didn't expect that Emperor Jingtai was completely lost and crazy!

Not to mention how much blood and tears Emperor Jingtai experienced when he seized the heirloom, which emperor in his prime would not be greedy for the supreme imperial power when there was no irresistible reason?

In addition, as the second prince's party, they have already made a lot of preparations on this road to seize the throne. It has been less than three years since the second prince went to the Ministry of Industry until now.

In their estimation, Emperor Jingtai would have to reign for another ten years at least, and these ten years were enough, but they still underestimated He's witch who is a disaster for the country!

Now if Emperor Jingtai loses his mind, they must be caught off guard, even the palace change is not justifiable and justifiable.

After all, the prince hasn't had time to do anything stupid enough to be deposed.

Gu Qing propped his cheeks, more than half of his face was hidden in the shadow of the candle, and sighed in his heart: Look, this has changed his mind, and he still cares about whether his teacher is famous or not, so he has to wear that layer of "fig leaf" "?Does it have to be like this to feel at ease?

Thinking of this, Gu Qing sat upright a little bit, and spoke with the soft sound of the burning candle: "My lords, I have something to show you here."

When he speaks at this time, it must be something that can affect the overall situation.

Several confidant ministers all looked over, and watched the Second Highness take out a piece of paper from his purse.

Confidant ministers: "???"
