In the Golden Palace, after a brief silence, it seemed as if the gunpowder barrel was ignited. The officials in the hall suddenly "voices of the emperor" rose one after another.

"Emperor, the Empress is the mother of a country. Please respect him, love him, and love him!"

"Emperor, the dragon and phoenix are a sign of rejuvenation. I hope Your Majesty will live up to the diligent, intelligent and virtuous Holy Mother!"

"Emperor, the central palace is the emperor's first companion, with a kind voice, a kind voice, a kind voice, a kind voice, a kind voice, a kind voice, a kind voice, a kindness, a kindness, a kindness, a kindness, a kindness?"

...

After learning that Long Qing had neglected the Queen for half a year, Qingliu officials had found a problem, but they all stood up and said "information".

Just now under the suppression of Xu Jie and Long Qing, they were like turtles, but they did not dare to easily jump out and oppose the title of the eldest son of the emperor Zhu Yijun as the crown prince.

But now Longqing has revealed his "flaws" and personally admitted that he had neglected Queen Chen for half a year, so he naturally had to grab one place and attack it.

After all, they agreed with Pan Sheng's plan, but they were unwilling to confer the crown prince hastily now, but were worried that the emperor's legitimate son would appear.

That's right now, they are perceptively persuading the emperor to "poet" the queen, but in fact they are preventing the eldest son of the emperor, Zhu Yijun, from being crowned the crown prince.

Longqing was immediately frightened when he saw this scene, especially Pan Sheng's mouth-filled star flying.

I thought it would be a natural thing to enthrone the crown prince, but I didn't expect that my unintentional remark would actually attract so many doubts, and even pointed the finger at the emperor.

Zhang Juzheng knew that his student was not smart, but when he saw that the situation had developed, he had to stand up and protect his student and said, "Shilarious Minister Pan, it is wrong for the emperor to neglect the queen, but you said that the emperor's move was afraid of the queen's birthday.

The next child is not appropriate to speculate on the holy intentions in this way!”

Although the voice was not loud, the majesty of Zhengtang was a catch of Pan Sheng's words and used it to suppress Pan Sheng, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites.

"If the emperor hadn't neglected the queen so much for half a year or even longer, how could the queen have not given birth for many years? How could our Ming Dynasty have been delayed in seeing the eldest son! I am extremely heartbroken now. Even if I sacrifice this life, I will still seek justice for the queen.

!” Pan Sheng responded positively in the face of Zhang Juzheng’s pressure.

Although it is true that Zhang Juzheng is his immediate boss, he is the second best player in Jiajing for 20 years, and is even older than Zhang Juzheng, and he is no longer willing to surrender to Zhang Juzheng.

The most important thing is that what Longqing did now is obviously wrong, but he cannot be so neglected by Empress Chen. How could he choose to retreat because of Zhang Juzheng’s pressure?

When the officials heard Pan Sheng’s remarks, they couldn’t help but nodded secretly.

In theory, officials cannot interfere in the affairs of the harem. However, Long Qing ignored the queen so much, but it affected the birth of the emperor's legitimate son, and he could no longer accuse the people of interfering in the harem.

If Empress Chen really gave birth to the emperor's legitimate son, even if Long Qing really intended to make the eldest son Zhu Yijun the crown prince, then all their officials should support the emperor's legitimate son.

After all, the Ming Dynasty had the rules of the Ming Dynasty, but it was impossible to change the order of inheritance of the throne at will because of Longqing's preferences, which would put the entire Ming Dynasty into chaos.

Xu Jie didn't want Lin Xuran to be out of the matter, so he stood up and looked at Lin Xuran and said gently: "Don't rush to argue, let's listen to Master Lin's opinions!"

The officials in the hall looked at Lin Xuran. Although Pan Sheng had the determination to die, the person who had the real strength to stop the crown prince was this powerful master Lin.

As long as Lin Xuran agrees to establish a crown prince, all opposition will be suppressed, and the eldest son of the emperor Zhu Yijun will become the crown prince of the dynasty.

Lin Junran knew that Xu Jie had bad intentions, so he said seriously in front of everyone's eyes: "The rule of law of the Ming Dynasty is: to establish a legitimate position, the eldest son, and now that we want to talk about the crown prince, we must first consider why the emperor has no legitimate son, which is temporarily

There is no emperor's legitimate son or there will never be no emperor's legitimate son!"

As soon as these words were spoken, officials including Pan Sheng, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, nodded one after another.

Although Lin Qingran is indeed younger than them, he always leads them in doing things and thinking about problems, and he is even more incisive about the issue of establishing the crown prince.

Now that the Xu Party proposes to establish a crown prince, it should not be discussed whether to enthrone the eldest son of the emperor Zhu Yijun, but should give priority to the issue of "the emperor's legitimate son".

No matter how well the Xu Party’s reasons are, if we want to enthrone the eldest son of the emperor Zhu Yijun as the crown prince, we must first make sure that the "emperor's legitimate son" will not appear.

As Lin Junran said, only if there will be no legitimate son of the emperor in the Ming Dynasty, can we discuss whether to enthrone the eldest son of the emperor Zhu Yijun as the crown prince.

Guo Pu and Chen Yiqin exchanged a glance secretly, but both saw the shock in each other's eyes, and then looked at Lin Qiran with admiration.

Xu Jie and Zhang Juzheng frowned, and the good situation just now disappeared. Now they found that Lin Qiran was led by the nose again.

I thought that as long as they proposed to enthrone the eldest son of the emperor Zhu Yijun and the emperor chose to pass this plan, they would be "supported".

But now, Lin Weiran is still in trouble in the face of danger, and then sorts out the matter clearly, which leads the core of the problem to the emperor's legitimate son in one fell swoop.

Lin Qingran ignored everyone's shock and looked at Long Qing and said, "Emperor, the Empress is the mother of the Ming Dynasty. She is only thirty years old this year, and it is still in her youth. So far, the Empress has not given birth to a legitimate son of the Emperor, and the reason is still needed.

Carefully find out that it may be caused by the phoenix health! I beg the emperor to immediately issue an order to the Imperial Hospital, and the Imperial Hospital will diagnose the queen to ensure that the phoenix health is healthy!"

Naturally, he would not bet on the emperor's legitimate son easily, and his current practice is more about demonstrating his style as a leader of the civil service group.

Even though the situation has reached a tacit understanding between the chief assistant Xu Jie and Long Qing, as long as this matter is not in line with the rules, then Lin Qingran dares to stand up and stop it.

What's more, Xu Jie and Long Qing were obviously too hasty this time. Long Qing just took the initiative to confess the fact that he neglected the queen for half a year, so he had more reasons to stop him.

"Gemaster Lin, according to your words! If Feng is sick, he will have to cure Empress Chen in the Imperial Hospital. Will Chen Huangcheng give birth to the emperor's legitimate son?" Zou Yinglong heard Lin Qinran's words and jumped out immediately

Asked.

When the officials heard Zou Yinglong's questioning so bluntly, they also looked at Lin Weiran curiously.

Lin Junran knew that the most taboo struggle in the officialdom was not firm, but he asked indifferently: "Zou Siqing, I dare to ask that the queen also gave birth to the emperor's legitimate son. I wonder if you still want to support the emperor's eldest son as the crown prince?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the officials looked at Zou Yinglong viciously.

Zou Yinglong felt the murderous intent around him, and secretly swallowed and spit out his position, saying, "If the queen gave birth to the emperor's legitimate son, I would be the support of the emperor's legitimate son!"

Longqing, who was sitting on the dragon throne, heard the answer, but his brows frowned slightly.

Seeing that Zou Yinglong did not dare to take the blame, Lin Xu turned his head and looked at Longqing and begged seriously: "Emperor, we should not interfere in the harem as ministers, but Empress Chen has not made any debut for many years, and now Concubine Li is already

My second child is about to give birth, and my ministers are anxious about the world! Since Shangshu Zhang and Ge Lao Xu proposed to be the crown prince, then we should give preferential treatment to the emperor and ask the emperor to order the Imperial Hospital to check why the empress has not given birth for many years, so as to correct the country's foundation

!”

After all, although the eldest son of the emperor Zhu Yijun is the heir to the first order of the throne, he is not the most preferred heir, and Lin Weiran has firmly grasped this point.

"The lesson of the Former Qin Dynasty is still in front of you, but if the Ming Dynasty has been slow to establish its foundation and the foundation of the Ming Dynasty is in turmoil, are you going to be a sinner forever?" Zhang Shouzhi wanted to win the merit of support, and even if he played the old tune again

typical.

Seeing Zhang Shouzhi stand up, Zhu Heng next to him immediately said, "The former emperor has not established a foundation for forty-five years. Today, the Ming Dynasty is equally prosperous and peaceful! Now that the emperor is still strong, why should he be anxious for a while and lay hidden dangers for the future?

”

"Emperor, Empress Chen has not given birth for many years. This is God's will. I also want to make the eldest son Zhu Yijun the crown prince!" Xu Jie gritted his teeth and immediately said with a throwaway of heaven.

this……

The officials in the hall saw that Xu Jie was already urging the final decision to establish the crown prince. Although this statement of divine will also make some sense, they found that Xu Jie seemed too hasty.

It was just that when Xu Jie personally stood up to promote the enthronement of the eldest son of the emperor, Zhu Yijun, the respondents were mostly from the Xu Party, and their momentum was seriously inconsistent with the status of the chief minister of the dynasty.

After all, Xu Jie is no longer the chief minister who is favored by Jiajing. Now that his status has been seized by Lin Qiran, it is impossible for him to respond again.

"Emperor, the matter of the emperor's legitimate son is unknown, so it is not advisable to make a eldest son around him. Please ask the emperor to make a crown prince slowly!" Lin Qingran faced the tit-for-tat and immediately knelt down and begged.

"Prince, please give the crown prince a moment!"

The officials behind him knelt down, including the officials who had always regarded themselves as clear water, and their momentum was already filled with the entire Golden Palace.

Compared with Xu Jie's petition just now, Lin Weiran's petition can be said to be a tsunami.

this……

Longqing saw that most of the officials were kneeling in the hall, especially the sound of "Please slowly establish the prince", but he felt that he was insignificant.

Although Zhang Juzheng knew that Lin Xuran had an influence beyond his teacher, he turned around and saw that only Xu Dang had stood out, and he was immediately shocked.

The former leader of the Hanlin Academy Repair and Inspection Hall has grown up step by step, but has become the real leader in this Golden Palace.

When Huang Jin saw this scene, he also looked at Lin Weiran deeply.

As if it was transforming under his nose, this Ming Dynasty's first eloquent was already a small person from the edge of the court. After so many years of struggle, he has become the leader of the court.

Xu Jie did not turn around, but just listening to the huge petition behind him, his eyes couldn't help but close slightly, but he knew that he had miscalculated again this time.

I thought I had prepared enough this time and could push the eldest son Zhu Yijun to the throne of the prince in the morning today, but I found that I still had a glimpse of Lin Shiran's ability to adapt and influence.

What made him most heartbreaking was that his throne with the leader of the civil servant group was gradually drifting away, and Lin Weiran was already going to take over this position and become the absolute leader of the civil servant group.

But he did not regret taking this path!

In fact, he did not like this kind of political speculation, just like when King Yu and King Jing almost decided on the victory and defeat, this allowed his favorite disciple Zhang Juzheng to enter Prince Yu's mansion.

However, Lin Qingran is really too difficult. If he wants to please the civil servant group and to meet the emperor's wishes, he will never get rid of Lin Qingran.

If he could not get rid of Lin Qingran, then after he left the court, Lin Qingran would have enough reason to liquidate him by relying on the hundreds of thousands of acres of fertile land in his family.

That's why he needed to use the imperial power to get rid of Lin Weiran, and could only embark on the path of protecting the imperial party, and even engage in political speculation for the next day.

"Gemaster Lin, I will allow you to immediately send the Imperial Hospital to check the Queen's body. Perhaps the Queen's body can no longer be born!" Long Qing seemed to compromise when he saw such a momentum.

In his heart, the candidate for the crown prince was the eldest son of the emperor. But he also knew in his heart that once the queen really gave birth to the emperor's legitimate son, it would probably not be his turn to decide on this matter.

But he also had a vague guess in his heart that the queen had not given birth to a child for so many years, and now it is Concubine Li who gave birth to a son for him. How easy is the queen to give birth to a legitimate son?

"The emperor is wise!" Lin Qingran heard Long Qing's last voice, but pretended not to hear it, and said respectfully.

"The emperor is wise!" When the officials heard the result they wanted, they followed Lin Qingran to express their gratitude and stood up from the ground one after another.

When Xu Jie saw that he was defeated, his face was gloomy, but he knew in his heart that the struggle between him and Lin Weiran had begun.

As long as the matter of establishing a crown prince continues to ferment, although Lin Qingran will win the support of all officials, he will offend the petty Concubine Li.

If things are done until the end, but they have always been clear about the enthronement of the crown prince, then in the next dynasty, how could Lin Qingran still have good fruits?

That's why the key to his struggle with Lin Junran would be that the eldest son of the emperor Zhu Yijun can rise to power or the emperor's legitimate son who has not yet been seen.

After the crown prince's fight, the following morning court seemed much more gentle.

Although the Right Tongzheng Envoy Li Yiyuan revealed that Hai Rui impeached Xu Jie, Long Qing had already favored Xu Jie and said calmly: "Hai Rui's reports are groundless things, but they should not be taken seriously.

There is no need to discuss this matter again!”

"Yes!" Faced with Long Qing protecting Xu Jie in this way, the officials also responded helplessly.

After all, Hai Rui is not a censor, and the impeachment charges are all things that are not true. It is indeed impossible to use this to dismiss Xu Jie.

Although Lin Weiran had already guessed that this would be the result, he felt a little uneasy when he saw Xu Jie and Long Qing getting closer.

But no matter how powerful he is, he is actually working for the Zhu family. Once he is really caught, he is likely to fail.

Now that Xu Jie, the old fox, has been thrown into Longqing, Longqing's disadvantages have undoubtedly been compensated for, and a second Emperor Jiajing may appear at that time.
