King Chen thought about it seriously, and it seemed that he really wanted to ask about his sixth brother. If he could handle this matter well, it would indeed solve a lot of troubles.
"Okay, I will write a letter and have it sent to the border, and let the sixth brother take care of it."
Prince Jing took the initiative to go to the border, and then It was a gesture of goodwill to him. He was really worried that Prince Jing would do something bad before, but as soon as he was reminded by the princess, he no longer had such thoughts. Don't be suspicious when you employ people, and don't use them when you are suspicious. This trust must still be given.
Besides, what the princess said is right, you must believe in He Jiuniang’s vision.
Prince Jing never expected that before he even reached the border, his good brother would start arranging tasks for him, and he would be clear about it.
In the next few days, He Jiuniang had a relatively relaxed life. She had nothing to do except seeing a doctor for the old emperor and Zhou Yanlan’s sister-in-law. In her free time, she took the princess around.
She knew that her family would definitely come to the capital to live in the future, and they would have to buy some properties. She would look at it now, and then she could buy it directly when she came.
Several major events have happened in the past few days. Firstly, the old emperor dealt with Prince Lin and his mother's accomplices, killing many people; secondly, those elite soldiers who wanted to force the palace They were also disposed of. They were all dead soldiers of Dongting. They were of little use if they were kept. Anyway, after knowing the identity of the leader, nothing else mattered. Thirdly, it was about giving rewards based on merit.
In that incident, both Lu Baichuan and his wife had made great contributions. He Jiuniang had no intention of going to court, so naturally she didn't care about those things, so only Lu Baichuan was awarded the title and was promoted to the second-level general of the auxiliary country. , gold, silver, jewelry, silk, tea, etc., delivered to my home in large boxes.
He Jiuniang received the title of imperial edict. Because of her great merit, she also extended an imperial edict to the Sun family. This was a major event that shocked the government and the public.
There are very few titles like Mrs. Gaoming. Not everyone can get it, and a family can only have one at most. But in the Lu family, not only Lu Baichuan was promoted, but also his wife and Even though I have been banned, some people have turned their eyes green.
On the day of the canonization, many people stood up to oppose it. There were some red-eyes, and some serious courtiers felt that the Lu family rose too quickly and had a bad impact, so they followed suit to dissuade him.
But none of this persuaded the old emperor to retreat. Faced with the obstruction of these people, the old emperor said directly: "Those who oppose, think carefully about where you were on the night of the palace coup!"
After shouting this sentence, no one dared to say a word.
No one has any memory of what happened that night. After drinking, he fell asleep and woke up the next morning.
BecauseAfter being specifically instructed, the servants at home did not dare to help clean it, so when I woke up the next day, I would find that my body was covered in blood, proving that I had missed a fight last night.
While surviving the disaster, I also found it incredible that the person leading the rebellion turned out to be Prince Lin, who had always been indifferent to fame and fortune!
The civil servants were thankful that they could save their lives after fainting, while the military attachés were a little regretful. If they had been awake, Lu Baichuan would not be the only one to take the credit!
In any case, Lu Baichuan's promotion is a sure thing. No matter how jealous he is, there is nothing he can do. Even if the prince and several other princes go to make trouble, it will not help.
The old emperor left the rest of the matter to King Chen, clearly handing over his power. Anyone with a discerning eye knew that the old emperor's preference for the prince was gone forever.
He Jiuniang and the princess had been shopping for a day, and were about to eat out with the princess when they suddenly heard someone coming to report something had happened.
He Jiuniang didn't care much, thinking that if the princess was leaving, she would go home by herself and study some new dishes to eat together when Lu Baichuan came back.
As a result, the servant said: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince came into the palace, saying that he wanted to give up the position of Crown Prince to our Highness. Now the nobles have entered the palace, so please pack up and go into the palace too! By the way, General Lu is also in the palace. Madam, will you go with us?"
The servant said this, someone must have reminded him that He Jiuniang was thinking of entering the palace at this time. If she was delayed for a while, Maybe I can have a meal in the palace, which would be great.
He Jiuniang followed the princess back to Prince Chen’s Mansion. After cleaning up, they entered the palace together.
The so-called tidying up means that after a day of shopping, my hair is a little messy and I am sweating a little, so I just need to comb my hair and wash my face.
On the other hand, the princess was in great shape. She freshened up her clothes, changed her clothes, and put on delicate makeup again.
During this period, He Jiuniang lay on the princess's chaise and slept.
The princess was very envious when she saw her being so casual and free, but with her identity here, she also knew what was going on in the palace now, so she had to pay attention to her appearance.
When the two of them hurriedly entered the palace, they found that everything had settled. The old emperor agreed that the prince should give up his position as prince, and was named King Mao. He did not wait for anyone to react, but directly changed the King Chen was granted the title of crown prince, and he continued to act as the agent of the government.
Now, the former Crown Prince, now King Mao, is really out of business.
Originally, he came to the old emperor to cry in front of the old emperor with the idea of a bitter trick. According to the old emperor's love for him, he might let King Chen return his power. Unexpectedly, the bitter trickIt was of no use at all, so the old emperor readily agreed.
That seems to mean that even if he doesn’t give up on his own initiative, the prince will definitely be deposed in the future.
King Mao was about to cry, but the old emperor was still excited to prepare a family banquet and announce the important news early tomorrow morning.
When He Jiuniang and the princess arrived, they happened to catch up with the family banquet. The queen pulled Princess Chen, oh no, she is the princess now, and reluctantly explained a few words.
The Queen is the biological mother of King Mao. Now her son has lost the title of Crown Prince. She is feeling sad. She doesn’t like the Crown Princess in any way. But now it is a foregone conclusion and she just doesn’t want to anymore. There was nothing she could do. During this period, the old emperor's attitude was very clear. Even if she didn't want to, she couldn't change the situation.
I blame my own son for not living up to expectations and not being able to compete with the third child!
Thinking of this, the queen's eyes narrowed. She was also awake that night during the palace change. She watched the whole process and knew that if it weren't for the Lu family and his wife, the third child wouldn't be able to do it. Having accomplished so many great things in a short period of time, I secretly gritted my teeth.
Fortunately, the old emperor still cherished his old friendship. Even if he deposed the crown prince, he did not change her position. Even if the third son became the emperor, she could still be the queen mother. Thinking about this, she felt a little better. A little more.
The old emperor was in a particularly good mood. He was very happy to have handled several major events in such a short period of time.
Seeing that He Jiuniang went to sit with Lu Baichuan, she said: "This situation is what I am most happy to see. Among you brothers, the third one has the strongest ability. I feel relieved that the position is given to him. The rest will try their best to assist the third child. I have given you so many years of opportunities. If you can't compete, you have to admit defeat. If there are still those with bad intentions, the end will be worse than the fifth child! ”
