Chapter 1471 Queen Song: Jia Ziyu, stop for me! (At the beginning of the month, please vote!)
Palace Garden, Kunning Palace
"Ahem..."
Along with the sound of violent coughs, the entire warm Kunning Palace was enveloped in a sad atmosphere, and Emperor Chongping, who was lying on a bed covered with mattresses, was enveloped in a sense of decay.
of death.
"Your Majesty." At this moment, Empress Song came slowly with her plump waist, and stared at Emperor Chongping who was lying on the window. Under her beautiful eyebrows, her eyes were as bright as water, and she was concerned.
Said: "Your Majesty, drink this gruel."
"Ahem..." Emperor Chongping stood up, then coughed violently.
The sound of coughing seems to be like coughing up the lobes of the lungs.
At this moment, the Prime Minister of the Ming Dynasty Dai Quan came forward, supported Emperor Chongping's arm, quickly took a handkerchief, handed it over, and helped Emperor Chongping wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth.
Seeing this scene, Empress Song's fragrant and jade-skinned snow-skinned face changed slightly. Under the spring-green willow eyebrows, her beautiful eyes were slightly moist, and she looked at Emperor Chongping.
While he was talking, he sat down nearby, picked up a spoon, and gently shook the medicinal porridge in the jade bowl. After the heat had almost dissipated, he blew on it and handed it over.
Emperor Chongping asked: "Where are Zitong and Ziyu?"
Under Empress Song's Cuiyu beautiful eyebrows, her eyes could not help but show a hint of thoughtfulness, and she said softly: "I have sent someone to look for Jia Ziyu."
Emperor Chongping coughed violently a few more times, his shoulders shook sharply, his sunken cheeks were as pale as gold paper, and the aura of decay around him became more and more obvious.
Emperor Chongping nodded and said: "Zitong, send someone to urge you...ahem..."
At the end of the sentence, Emperor Chongping coughed a few more times, and his thin body was shaking like a broken bellows. From the outside, it looked really scary.
At this moment, the handkerchief in Dai Quan's hand was covered with bright red blood stains, and on Emperor Chongping's front, there were also shocking bright red blood stains.
At this moment, a young eunuch entered the palace and said: "Your Majesty, Madam, Prince Wei handed over the sign."
Emperor Chongping was out of breath and said: "Xuan."
Queen Song turned her eyes and saw that that snow-skinned and jade-faced face could not help but be enveloped with an inexplicable surprise.
After a while, Jia Heng was seen walking quickly into the palace, cupping his hands and saying, "I have seen your Majesty. Long live your Majesty. Long live your Majesty."
At this moment, in the palace of Kunning Palace, the fresh air of herbs and the air of blood mixed together, lingering in the air.
"Zi Yu is flat, cough..." Emperor Chongping had just said a few words before he started coughing violently again. After calming down, he waved his hand and said, "Come here, please give me a seat."
At this moment, Dai Quan quickly ordered the eunuch to move Jia Heng onto an embroidered pier.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Jia Heng cupped his hands and thanked him, and then sat down with a solemn expression on his face. He looked at Emperor Chongping at this moment, feeling very sad in his heart.
With this posture, I am afraid that the old dragon is about to die.
On this side, Queen Chunshan of the Song Dynasty, under her beautiful eyebrows, looked at the boy in the python suit with her beautiful eyes. She reluctantly looked away, then came to Emperor Chongping and held the middle-aged emperor's skinny palm.
, said: "Your Majesty, you still need to take care of your dragon body."
Just when she touched Emperor Chongping's hand, the beauty was shocked.
Your Majesty's hands are too cold.
This is the decline of Qi and blood.
Emperor Chongping's voice was weak and tired, and he said: "I'm fine. Zitong, I and Ziyu will have a few words alone."
Empress Song's face was stunned for a moment, her bright eyes were slightly moist, almost like ripples, and then she stared at Jia Heng who was sitting on the embroidered pier. The two made eye contact for a moment, and then left outside.
Empress Song said softly: "Your Majesty, I have to retire."
As he spoke, he greeted all the eunuchs and nuns and headed outside, but still looked back at Emperor Chongping and the boy in the python suit.
For a while, only Jia Heng, Emperor Chongping, and Dai Quan were left in the palace.
"Dai Quan will wait in the warm pavilion outside." Emperor Chongping's thin cheeks were so sunken that he couldn't help coughing, and then he spoke again.
Dai Quan heard this and gently said yes, and then didn't say much.
Jia Heng sat close and said: "Your Majesty, you should take care of your dragon body."
Emperor Chongping sighed and said softly: "I...I'm afraid I won't be able to survive this winter."
Jia Heng was startled. After brewing his emotions for a long time, his voice was almost choked and he said, "Your Majesty, why are you making such unlucky words now?"
Emperor Chongping sighed and said with emotion: "Cultivate the short and change it, and it will eventually end. It is destiny, what can I do?"
Jia Heng looked at the middle-aged emperor, who looked waning and looked like his oil had run out. He felt a little compassion in his heart, and said with relief: "Your Majesty, take good care of yourself, and you will eventually recover."
Emperor Chongping gave a bitter smile, then coughed violently a few more times, took a piece of Lopa, and covered his mouth again.
Jia Heng quickly came forward, helped Emperor Chongping's arm and said, "Your Majesty."
Emperor Chongping said warmly: "Now that the East Palace has not been established, for the sake of the country, who do you think Ziyu should establish as his heir and inherit the throne?"
Jia Heng said: "Your Majesty, I think this matter is a family matter of your Majesty's. Your Majesty's holy heart is the only one who can make decisions independently. I dare not speak nonsense."
Emperor Chongping's voice became increasingly weak as he said: "This is both a family matter and a state matter. Ziyu, you and I are both king and minister, son-in-law, and more importantly... Uncle Lang, you can speak freely."
At the end of the story, Emperor Chongping felt a little strange and inexplicable.
Jia Heng nodded and said: "Your majesty's great talents and great plans will belong to which vassal king. I will completely obey your majesty's will."
Emperor Chongping was silent for a moment and then said: "King Chen Qin of Chu is wise, wise, strong and decisive. King Wei is magnanimous and has the air of a king. I was undecided for a while."
The current position of crown prince cannot be passed down to the eighth prince Chen Ze or the son Chen Luo given birth to by Empress Song.
Jia Heng was silent for a moment and looked at Emperor Chongping who was suffering from "difficulty in choosing".
"Who do you think Ziyu can rule the world?" Emperor Chongping asked, his voice hoarse and rough.
Jia Heng nodded and said: "Wei Chen thought that the Holy Emperor already had the answer in his mind, so he summoned Wei Chen into the palace just for peace of mind."
In fact, he had some vague speculations in his mind, fearing that just as Fan Yi said, Emperor Chongping really wanted to abandon Wei Zechu.
"The King of Wei has no children. Ever since we got married, I have been feeling unbearable." Emperor Chongping's face was as gloomy as iron and he sighed.
Jia Heng's heart tightened and he said: "Your Majesty, the King of Wei may not be unable to diagnose and treat. For example, after two years of marriage, Wei Chen still had nothing to show for his illness. Later, he had Fu'er, and everything went well after that."
Emperor Chongping waved his hand, sighed, and said: "How could I not know? It's just that if something like this happens, how can I be worthy of my ancestors? Besides, I can't wait until that time."
Jia Heng was silent for a moment, staring at Emperor Chongping who had sunken cheeks and a depressed look, and sighed secretly in his heart.
The emperor has indeed reached the end of his life.
Emperor Chongping paused for a moment and then continued: "Now there are murmurs in the capital. King Wei and King Liang are siblings from the same mother. They are both direct descendants. It is said that King Wei will be the crown prince. After King Wei succeeds to the throne, King Liang will
As the emperor's younger brother, what do you think of Ziyu?"
Jia Heng said: "Your Majesty, the theory that brothers will eventually become brothers has been around since ancient times, and those in Beijing uphold this theory."
He really didn't know what to say, mainly because he didn't know the emperor's intentions.
Emperor Chongping responded and said: "However, from the Sui and Tang Dynasties to the present, when brothers come to an end, they often do not take advantage of each other. This shows that the way to create chaos is to create chaos."
Jia Heng paused and said, "I am stupid and I really don't know what the Holy One means. Please make it clear."
It would be inappropriate to guess at this time.
Emperor Chongping heard the respectful tone in the young man's tone and said, "Do you think the King of Chu can shoulder the important responsibilities of the country?"
In fact, it was not that he had not thought about establishing the eighth prince Chen Ze. The eighth prince Chen Ze was young and talented. Using Jia Ziyu as his assistant minister and using the cabinet ministers as a check and balance might be a way to stabilize the government.
But how did the queen and the two kings of Wei and Liang deal with it?
Are you willing to do this?
And will Ziyu have other ideas in the future?
Afterwards, if we do not establish the King of Chu as his heir, the King of Chu will have a weak foundation, so we can ask foreign ministers to assist him, and then use Zi Yu to check and balance the situation. In this way, the kings of Wei, Liang and Liang and their princes will be rich and noble for a long time.
In fact, this is also a check and balance strategy.
The King of Chu had a shallow foundation and did not have many people behind him to rely on. In order to secure his position, he must rely on Jia Heng to balance the situation in the court.
And Jia Heng is brother-in-law with the King of Chu, and coupled with his relationship with the King of Wei, he can easily become a bridge of communication between the two parties, preventing fratricide.
Jia Heng's face was as calm as water, and he couldn't help being inexplicably startled, and said: "I think that a son is as good as his father. The emperor of Chu should know the talents of the king."
Emperor Chongping was silent for a moment and murmured: "The King of Chu Yingguo is like me. Although the political situation of the Han Dynasty is stable now, it still needs a promising king to carry on the past and open up the future, and recreate the prosperous era of China."
To a certain extent, King Chu was indeed a replica of Emperor Chongping, and he had the same jealous and mean temperament.
The King of Chu lost his mother when he was young, so he was always walking on thin ice.
Perhaps, precisely because of the lack of maternal love, the King of Chu coveted a young lady like the eldest princess of Jinyang.
Jia Heng said in a deep voice: "If the Holy One has made a decision, I should not speak nonsense. I can only obey the Holy Will to repay the Holy One for his kindness."
Emperor Chongping was satisfied with Jia Heng's attitude and said: "The prestige of the King of Chu is not enough. I have been thinking about it for a long time, but I still need your help to prevent our brothers from fighting against each other and the country being in turmoil..."
Jia Heng's face was extremely solemn and he said: "The Holy One is kind and virtuous, and I should do my best to make things right on my behalf."
Again, the emperor had already made a decision before summoning him. He was not summoned to listen to his opinion, but to gain peace of mind and let him protect the new king.
Emperor Chongping sighed and said warmly: "It's a pity that I have no heirs. Although I feel sorry for him, the foundation of my country was laid by my ancestors. It concerns hundreds of millions of sentient beings in all corners of the country. How can this be a child's play?"
Jia Heng nodded and said: "Your Majesty is so public-spirited that he serves the foundation of his ancestors and shines upon the people of the world. He is worthy of the world and the earth."
Emperor Chongping felt a little moved when he heard this. He was silent for a moment and whispered: "I am sorry for Zitong after all."
During these days, after Emperor Chongping became blind, Empress Song took great care of Emperor Chongping, but the emperor had a troubled conscience.
Jia Heng nodded and said warmly: "Your Majesty is worthy of the ancestors of the Han Dynasty and the people of all corners of the country."
Emperor Chongping's expression paused slightly and he waved his hand.
After a moment of silence, he called out and said, "Dai Quan, where are you?"
Following the sound of cautious footsteps, Dai Quan came from outside, stood with his hands lowered, and said: "Your Majesty, my servant is here."
Emperor Chongping looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "Immediately ask the cabinet to draw up a decree, summon Zhen Yingjia to the capital, appoint him as the general minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, make Zhen Shao the commander of the military training camp in the capital, and grant him the title of minister of the Ministry of War, minister of military aircraft, and walk in the military aircraft office
.”
Now that the emperor had made a decision in his heart, at this moment, he acted almost resolutely and without delay. It can even be said that to some extent, he caught the king of Chu, Wei and Liang and others by surprise.
Because the longer the delay is, the greater the damage will be to the Han Dynasty and the more severe the turmoil will be in the political situation.
The four brothers of the Zhen family, after a few years, once again became the assistants of the King of Chu.
Jia Heng couldn't help but sigh secretly after listening to Emperor Chongping's arrangements.
This is the emperor, who only cares about the country and the country, and has no personal relationships with his children.
However, once such an appointment is made, I am afraid that it will make the King of Wei suddenly feel chilly, and there may be some twists and turns.
In other words, up to this moment, the emperor still did not issue an edict and directly granted the King of Chu the title of East Palace. Perhaps there was still a last inspection of the King of Chu?
Emperor Chongping paused for a moment, looked at Dai Quan, and said: "Dai Quan, please escort me to the study in Hanyuan Hall with the inner guards. I will be sent to the study from the Empress Dowager of Changle Palace to serve me."
At this moment, Emperor Chongping had already begun to think about his own safety, or in other words, he began to guard against Empress Song and the relatives of the Song family becoming injured.
Dai Quan's fair complexion changed slightly, he cupped his hands and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Jia Heng's expression changed, and he felt a little surprised.
The emperor is really cruel and has no regard for the relationship between husband and wife.
It can only be said that the dragon's body has been extremely damaged.
As if he felt the young man's grief from the silence, Emperor Chongping sighed and asked, "Ziyu thinks I'm a little ruthless?"
Jia Heng said: "Your Majesty is a wise king with careful thoughts and resolute determination. Since he is a wise king, he treats the world with kindness. How can he be unkind?"
"It is only the Spring and Autumn period that knows that I have sinned." Emperor Chongping was silent for a moment and said.
Emperor Chongping was silent for a moment and then said: "Ziyu will also protect the two kings of Wei and Liang."
Jia Heng said: "The queen is the mother of the world and presides over the six palaces. The king of Chu should also treat her as a mother, just like filial piety and brotherhood. This is the way of obeying nature and responding to the times. The emperor must not lose his virtue, otherwise he will be criticized by thousands of people."
Emperor Chongping said: "Zi Yu's words make sense."
The middle-aged emperor remained silent for a while, waiting for Dai Quan's reply.
Jia Heng sat down with Emperor Chongping for a while. Seeing that Emperor Chongping was tired of thinking, he had no choice but to say goodbye.
Emperor Chongping suddenly spoke again and said: "Ziyu also went to see Xianning. Xianning will give birth in a month or two, so it would be better to spend more time with him."
The next period of time is the key. If the Queen, Queen Wei, mother and son are really unwilling to give up, he can only... cruelly imprison them.
As for Ziyu, if he really prefers King Wei, then he...
Thinking of this, Emperor Chongping suddenly felt an unspeakable sadness in his heart.
Jia Heng cupped his hands and said, "Wei Chen, please retire."
While talking, Jia Heng left Kunning Palace and walked toward Funing Palace along the corridor of red beams with a heavy heart.
If this happens together, the capital may be in an uproar.
Just after he passed the corner, he raised his eyes and looked at a beautiful woman with strong bones and fair skin. He held his hands and said: "Your Majesty."
Empress Song looked like Chunshan under her dark eyebrows, with a bit of panic in her eyes, and asked: "Ziyu, you are so good, why did your Majesty move to Hanyuan Palace?"
Apparently this beauty had already learned the news about Emperor Chongping's transfer.
Jia Heng looked at the beauty with somewhat complicated eyes and said, "Empress, Your Majesty has made a decision and recently decided to restore the Zhen family."
As soon as she said this, Empress Song felt as if she had been struck by lightning, and her jade face, as crystal clear as snow, turned white as she said, "How could this happen?"
At this moment, the beauty only felt that her hands and feet were cold, and her whole body was cold. Her fragrant skin, jade-white face, was as pale as paper.
At this moment, Jia Heng couldn't help but sigh softly, and said warmly: "Your Majesty, King Wei has had no children since he got married. The emperor has no choice but to do this for the sake of the Han Dynasty."
When Empress Song heard this, her beautiful eyes showed anger under her curved eyebrows, and she said anxiously: "How old is Ran'er? It's not that it can't be cured. Even if Ran'er is really childless, Wei'er is still here.
, can’t it be established as the East Palace?”
Jia Heng was silent for a moment and said: "Your Majesty is worried that brothers and sisters will cause chaos and endanger the Han Dynasty. My queen, I still have things to do with my subordinates. I hope my queen will take care of me."
With that said, Jia Heng planned to continue towards Funing Palace.
Not long after walking, I heard the beautiful woman behind her turn pale, and almost scolded: "Jia Ziyu, stop for me!"
Jia Heng turned to look at Empress Song and whispered: "Your Majesty, now that the matter has come to this, we should follow Your Majesty's will."
The beauty with snow-skinned face looked at the young man in the python suit with dewy eyes, her heart was almost filled with anger.
That's not what you said when you bullied me. Now you won't admit it when you lift your pants, right?
When you met His Majesty just now, did you say a word to help Ran'er?
Seeing the anger rising on the beauty's face, Jia Heng's eyes were both aggrieved and embarrassed, so he quickly said: "My queen, please calm down first."
"You come with me." Empress Song said in a low voice with her beautiful eyes shining like water under her curving willow-leaf eyebrows.
Jia Heng was looking from left to right at this moment, feeling a little frightened and inexplicable in his heart. He was also afraid that Empress Song would do something irrational.
After thinking for a while, Empress Song followed her into a side hall with double eaves and hooked corners and a winding roof.
At this moment, one can see that on the square red-painted pavilion windows, the window lattice is hollowed out with exquisite and complicated patterns.
The two of them entered the temple one after another, and the cold winter wind blew against the glazed tiles on the temple, making a "whirring" sound.
Queen Song's beautiful face seemed to be covered with a layer of cold frost, and she said in a sweet voice: "Tell me, what is going on?"
Jia Heng looked deeply and said: "The King of Wei has no heirs. For the sake of the Han Dynasty, the Holy One has decided to support the King of Chu. However, the empress will still be the empress dowager, and all the vassals of Wei and Liang can gain wealth and honor without losing it."
"Have you not lost your wealth?" Empress Song looked extremely depressed and said in a trembling voice: "After so many years of husband and wife relationship, he is so ruthless?"
As the beauty spoke, her heart felt very sad, or it could be said that it was difficult to accept such bad news.
Jia Heng's expression paused slightly, and he said softly: "Please calm down, Madam."
This was the first time he had seen Sweet Girl acting so rude.
"How do you want me to calm down?" At this moment, Queen Song's beautiful eyes were filled with tears under her eyebrows, and her voice was slightly choked, accusing: "I have three sons, and my sister has another son, which one
Can't stand it? But you chose a son of a commoner?"
Jia Heng looked at Empress Song intently and said, "Your Majesty may have other considerations."
Queen Song suddenly sneered and said warmly: "If you have any other considerations, they are just to guard against our Song family."
She had been with that man for nearly twenty years, how could she not know that he was a cold person?
Jia Heng looked at the beauty quietly and whispered: "Your Majesty, be careful what you say."
At this moment, Empress Song suddenly looked at Jia Heng. Under her slender willow-leaf eyebrows, her beautiful eyes that looked straight at her were filled with dangerous light. She grabbed Jia Heng's arm and said
:"come here!"
She wants revenge, revenge on that ruthless and unjust man!
Jia Heng: "???"
What the hell?
Tian Niu'er changed from her usual gentle and pleasant attitude, it seems that she was greatly stimulated.
