When Queen Wang Wenjun saw her son Su Shu's performance, her expression became much more relaxed.
If her son is smart, she will have less to worry about.
His son Su Shu could see clearly at a glance that the core of the current situation was Emperor Su He.
He was observing the actions of scholars and businessmen, and allowed the two factions to fight.
Once Emperor Su He made up his mind to resolve this matter, things would not develop to the extent they are now.
The key to breaking the situation depends on the attitude of Emperor Su He.
Queen Wang Wenjun asked in a soft tone: "Shu'er, the queen mother is anxious to know her son's understanding of the current situation in the court.
I'm just afraid that you just returned to the empire and would be ignorant and rush into the whirlpool of the two factions.
My mother has read the telegram you sent me, but I don’t know much about some of the details. Please give her a brief account of your experience at sea in the past two years.”
When Su Shu heard his mother say this, his nervous expression immediately dissipated and he began to tell his mother about his experience at sea.
He briefly passed through the boring and dangerous things at sea. He mainly talked about his experiences in vassal countries and Europe, as well as his thoughts on some things he saw.
When Su Shu narrated this process, he was very involved. When it came to emotional points, he no longer spoke straightforwardly, and his tone became high or low.
Queen Wang Wenjun saw a completely different son.
In her heart, she admired the choice made by her husband and the training her son Su Shu had gone through in the past two years.
Especially since he is in the period of forming his three views, he now has an overall view of things and can look at one thing from a broader perspective.
This quality is very important for a prince.
The prince's vision is narrow. In the current situation of the Great China Empire, he simply cannot ascend to the position of crown prince.
Queen Wang Wenjun waited until her son Su Shu said, she praised: "Shu'er, you have grown up so fast after this experience.
After talking for so long, drink a cup of Longjing tea to moisten your throat."
When Queen Wang Wenjun saw her son Su Shu drinking tea, she changed the subject and her tone became extremely serious.
"Shu'er, your growth has shocked my mother. She can no longer treat you as a child.
Your experience this time will also satisfy your father.
The second prince Su Lei is too young, and his experience in the military is not as good as the military training of a college student.
After a few days of hasty experience, Concubine De took her back to the palace.
However, Shuer persisted completely for two years, and the gap between the two was huge.
Your father is in his prime, but there are many ministers in the court who are constantly asking for the throne.
With your father's temperament, if he meets a suitable prince, he will not suppress him.
Your father said before that if a prince wants to become a qualified emperor, he must undergo at least ten years of training.
With your father's attitude towards doing things, he will definitely establish the crown prince when his son grows up.
Establish the crown prince as early as possible, and if the crown prince is found to be unqualified, there will still be a chance to replace him."
Su Shu began to listen to his mother's words, with a proud smile on his face.
He was able to persevere because he was interested in the Navy and the battleship Tarzan.
The most critical point is that on the ship, you can only wait for the ship to return to the empire. Even if you miss your home again, you must persevere. There is no choice at all.
Su Shu still had a smile on his face at first, especially when he heard that his father had a plan to establish a heir apparent, but when he heard what his mother said next, his face turned pale.
It is not easy to be the crown prince of the empire. Once he becomes the deposed prince, his fate is almost certain.
Queen Wang Wenjun was frightened when she saw her son Su Shu, and her purpose of saying these words was achieved.
She must make her son Su Shu realize that even if he becomes the crown prince, his journey has only just begun.
"Shu'er, I believe in your strength and this difficulty will not knock you down.
If you are unable to become the crown prince, your mother will naturally ensure your wealth and honor throughout your life.
If you really become the crown prince, you must remember clearly what the Queen Mother says next, and think about it carefully when you are indecisive."
When Su Shu heard his mother say this, his spirit immediately cheered up.
If he wants to compete for the position of crown prince, he has already made up his mind and must persevere no matter what difficulties he encounters.
The difficulty for him to become emperor cannot be higher than that of his father.
My father went from being a commoner to becoming the founding emperor. The difficulties he is facing now are not difficult at all.
Su Shu sat up straight, concentrated, and listened to his mother's warning.
Queen Wang Wenjun has always been able to sit firmly on the throne of the queen. Her skills are naturally very strong. She usually likes to read history and has a thorough understanding of the situations of the princes in the past dynasties.
She said in a somewhat vicissitudes of voice: "Shu'er, in the past dynasties, the emperor had two most common ways to check and balance the power of the prince.
One is the two-house battle method, and the other is the triangle check-and-balance method.
The conflict between the emperor and the prince of the Tang Dynasty was extremely fierce, and the queen mother used the Tang Dynasty as an example.
The way to fight for the second house is to let the prince compete with a prince.
Li Yuan, the founding emperor of the Tang Dynasty, did this, but he met two extremely talented sons.
Li Jiancheng, who held most of the power in the government, and Li Shimin, who held part of the military power.
Li Shimin felt threatened and finally took a risk, leading to the Xuanwu Gate Incident.
Li Shimin also adopted the method of fighting between the two palaces for his prince.
But he met several good-for-nothing sons, and none of his eldest sons stood out.
Li Shimin finally chose Li Zhi, who was still outstanding, to become the prince when he was old.
The battle between the two houses can effectively select an outstanding prince.
The only drawback is that Fei's son is at odds with the royal family.
Your father is extremely confident and believes that he can select a qualified prince and will not adopt this method of raising gu.
But when it came to selecting the prime minister, your father adopted a battle between the two palaces.
Your father has always let multiple favorite ministers compete with each other to select the prime minister.
The person who excelled in the use of triangular checks and balances in the Tang Dynasty was Tang Xuanzong Li Longji.
He divided the prince's power through the prime minister and Jiedushi, and suppressed the prince through ministers.
When the prince did not ascend to the throne, his rights were suppressed by both civil servants and military generals, and he was unable to threaten the emperor.
After the prince ascended to the throne, he took back power from the civil servants and military generals through imperial power and mastered supreme imperial power.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! If Li Longji, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, had not been stupid, he would have caused the Anshi Rebellion to break out.
His method was able to solve the confusion in the inheritance of the Tang Dynasty royal family in one fell swoop.
The triangular check and balance method was developed in the Song and Ming dynasties.
The imperial inheritance of the Song and Ming dynasties was no longer like that of the Tang dynasty, where the princes frequently exterminated their clans.
However, the triangle check and balance method also has certain requirements for the prince.
Many emperors of the Ming Dynasty, after they came to power, were unable to take back the rights that should belong to them from the civil servants."
Su Shu listened to his mother's introduction and had a clearer understanding of how to become a qualified prince.
After hearing what the Queen Mother said, he expressed his opinion: "What the Queen Mother means, the father will most likely choose the more stable triangular check and balance method.
The current situation of the empire, with its strict separation of civil and military affairs, is indeed more suitable for the triangular system of checks and balances.
In this way, once I become the crown prince and my teacher, Prime Minister Qian Mingyi will inevitably step down.
My relationship with the navy is better, so the next governor must be from the army."
Queen Wang Wenjun quickly accepted her statement when she saw her son Su Shu.
She nodded and said: "Shu'er, you have considered everything comprehensively.
After you become the crown prince, whether you see your father liking a certain prince more.
I still realize that your teacher Qian Mingyi suddenly turned against you, and the Governor politely declined your request.
This is a very normal situation. In their position, they must do this, otherwise they will not be able to sit in that position."
Su Shu nodded with a normal expression. He could hear the meaning that his mother did not say in her words.
My father will never give up the power in his hands until the last moment.
The emperor's father chose to cultivate the prince's abilities, let the prince get in touch with the government in advance, and cultivate his own power. This is already a huge grace.
A wise emperor will not delegate power. An emperor who loses power will have a very miserable life in his later years.
Not to mention in the royal family, even in the homes of ordinary people.
Before the head of the family dies, he will not distribute the property to his children.
If the head of the family who is really confused does this, his life will be miserable.
Human nature is the worst test in this world. Human nature cannot stand the test at all.
Everything in the world can be found in a few words in the history books, and every page of the history books exudes the smell of blood.
Su Shu knew this kind of thing, and even his closest teachers would not teach him. Only his mother could teach him these things without any scruples.
A superb mother has an important influence on the prince's life.
He knew that only today would his mother open up the conversation and explain the relevant issues to him thoroughly.
You can't always say this kind of thing, after all, you have to consider your father's feelings.
Su Shu stood up and asked for advice: "Mother, if I really become the crown prince.
How can I show my abilities without making my father feel threatened?"
Su Shu had read in history books that if the prince made the emperor feel threatened.
Unless he succeeds in seizing power like Li Shimin and Li Longji, he will end up miserable.
Queen Wang Wenjun knocked on the table with her hand and warned in a serious tone: "The most important thing is to know your identity clearly.
He is just a prince, not the master of this country.
The prince is both a prince and a minister, so he must have a sense of boundaries when doing things.
You must be brave enough to take on the things your father tells you or you should do, and you must not be timid.
Even if these princes don't know, the teachers in the prince's palace will teach them.
None of these are important. The most important thing is to be like his father.
An aspiring monarch is most concerned about whether the policies he has set can be continued.
The policies you set can be continued and will not lead to the demise of people and the government.
Even if the prince is not very smart, the emperor can accept it.
The prince opposed the emperor's policies, even if he showed extremely cleverness, the civil and military officials in the dynasty praised him.
It is difficult for such a prince to truly inherit the throne."
When Su Shu heard his mother say this, he suddenly felt enlightened.
The prince's reputation in official circles and among the people is important, but not important.
The most critical thing about the prince is the emperor's attitude.
As long as the emperor is resolute and does not choose to depose the prince.
The emperor can only abdicate and the prince can ascend the throne, unless the country collapses.
If Su Shu wants to be favored by his father, he must show that he can inherit his father's policies.
He can have disagreements on some specific things, but he must not touch the core of the policy. This is the bottom line for his future actions.
The policies that my father paid most attention to were the policy of separation of civil and military affairs, the policy of opening up people's intelligence, and the policy of developing industry.
Su Shu's performance in these policies must closely follow his father's ideas.
He looked at his mother and said in surprise: "I thank my mother for her teachings. I already have a clear understanding of my future behavior style.
My next performance will surely win the approval of my father and become the crown prince of the empire."
Queen Wang Wenjun looked at her son Su Shu's confident look, and she was very happy.
Only with this attitude can the husband be impressed and his son Su Shu can become the prince.
Su Shu performed best among the brothers.
He is also the eldest son, although his status as the eldest son is not important now.
However, this identity can gain the support of Confucianism, and other forces will not object.
The most critical point is that his son Su Shu completed the task assigned by his husband.
He returned from two years at sea and really learned a lot.
My son Su Shu has a feeling of seeing the whole world and being able to handle everything with ease.
This feeling is exactly how husband Su He feels when doing things.
As long as the son Su Shu can show off his important qualities like his father, he will definitely be able to impress his husband.
After Su Shu finished talking about his own affairs, he thought that before coming to Kunning Palace, he saw his sister Su Rong's abnormal behavior.
He asked: "Mother, when I entered the palace, I saw my sister. She was so afraid of the queen."
Queen Wang Wenjun said angrily: "Your sister is ambitious.
She was already sixteen years old, the age at which the children of imperial nobles were betrothed.
The queen mother urged Rong'er to find her husband as soon as possible and get engaged, and to wait until the right time to get married.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Ronger is very resistant to engagement for some unknown reason.
If we don't get engaged, some high-quality peers have already confirmed their engagements.
A royal princess cannot become the equal wife of a certain family."
Queen Wang Wenjun was also worried about her daughter's marriage.
The eldest son of the great nobles of the empire does not want to marry the royal princess.
The eldest son must spend his time, marry many wives and have children, in order to find outstanding children among the many children to inherit the family business.
Once you marry the royal princess, you cannot let other women enter, and you will be bound to the royal princess for the rest of your life.
The concubine of a great noble or a commoner, or a princess of the royal family marries.
Even if you are happy for a while, your marriage will never be happy because of the huge conflicts in life.
When Su Shu heard that his sister was worried for this reason, he suggested: "Mother, you don't have to worry too much about this matter.
My father always said that my sister should find someone who suits her heart.
People who live their lives cannot make random choices, that would be irresponsible for their own lives."
Queen Wang Wenjun had a disagreement with her husband Su He, so she was worried about her daughter's marriage.
She looked at her son Su Shu again and said happily: "Shu'er, you are already sixteen years old, which is the age to get engaged.
Your father asked Ronger to choose a husband that he was satisfied with.
He can never let you choose a wife that you are satisfied with.
I will discuss it with your father and see what else he can say."
Su Shu didn't expect that asking about his sister's situation would actually lead to him falling into the whirlpool of engagement.
As a prince, he still has the hope of becoming a prince, and he certainly cannot make the decision on his own marriage.
Which family he marries a girl from will become the norm for princes to get married in the future.
The selection will not be too random, and the empire will also consider a series of things such as the rise of relatives.
Su Shu had no choice but to accept his fate.
Thinking of this, he was extremely envious of his sister who could choose the other half of her life.
