Chapter 1491 Zhen Qing: Then will the King of Wei jump over the wall in a hurry?
Jinyi Mansion, the back office of the government office
Qiu Liang was just about to get up and go to Prince Chu's Mansion to report the news, but suddenly a bright light flashed in his heart, and he felt nervous for no reason.
Instead of informing the King of Chu now, he might as well save the King of Chu's life at a critical moment. At that time, he would have saved and supported him, which could be used to gain a title in the future.
When Qiu Liang thought about this, his heart felt hot.
Once an emperor, there is always a courtier. Now that the emperor in the palace is uncertain when he will be the emperor, he also needs to prepare for the future.
In particular, the King of Chu came to Dabao as a vassal and had a shallow foundation. He needed to balance the affairs of the civil servants and the King Wei, and he also needed a commander in royal robes whose position was not involved with the civil servants and the King Wei to support him.
Qiu Liang's thoughts went back and forth, and he soon made up his mind to put the matter on hold for now and prepare to help when the situation becomes urgent.
But instead, Qiu Liang was thinking about King Wei's recent movements.
The King of Wei holds the troops and horses of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division, so it is not that he is without the strength to fight.
Judging from his previous attempts to force himself to take sides, King Wei seemed unwilling to miss out on the throne.
Qiu Liang thought about it, his eyes getting brighter and brighter.
The King of Wei's plan should also be planned in three days.

Princess Jinyang’s Mansion, back house—
Jia Heng teased his son for a while, then asked his grandma to take care of the little guy, while he, Li Chanyue and Song Yan went to find Princess Xianning.
At this moment, Princess Xianning had changed into a wide dress. She was sitting on a bed covered with soft mattresses, holding out her bulging belly. She was eating gruel in small bites under the service of her maid.
At this time, a female official entered the wing quietly and said: "Your Highness, the prince is here."
The beauty put down the spoon in her hand, with a hint of happiness and sweetness on her graceful and bright face, and said, "Sir, is he here?"
While talking, the young man in python suit walked around a screen with splendid mica and hibiscus flowers, and said in a warm voice: "Xianning, have you eaten?"
"I'm eating." Princess Xianning put down the spoon in her hand and turned her head. Her beautiful eyes looked at Jia Heng, as well as Li Chanyue and Song Yan beside her. She couldn't hide the joy in her tone and said: "Chanyue
My cousin and Yan'er are here too."
While Jia Heng was speaking, he sat down in front of Princess Xianning, gently took the beauty's slender hair in his arms, and whispered: "How are you today?"
As the due date got closer, more and more people were sent to pay attention to Xianning.
Under Princess Xianning's curved eyebrows, her beautiful eyes were as bright as water, and she said: "Sir, I have become more and more sleepy these days, and I don't know when I will give birth."
Thinking back to the scene when I saw my aunt giving birth to a baby, it was really scary.
Jia Heng warned: "Xianning, you must be more careful during this period. I will come to see you often."
Xianning's beautiful eyebrows were curved, her beautiful eyes were as bright as water, almost as smart as water, and she said: "Sir, where is the eldest sister? Sir, you should also go to the eldest sister's side frequently."
Jia Heng smiled and said, "After I stay with you here, let's talk about where to go."
Princess Xianning said softly "Hmm", picked up a spoon and continued to use the gruel.
At this moment, Li Chanyue sat down and looked up at the boy in the python suit and Princess Xianning, with envy in her bright eyes.
After Princess Xianning finished her breakfast and sat down on a coffee table, Jia Heng gently stroked the beauty's bulging abdomen and said, "Has the child kicked you recently?"
Although it was not his first time to be a father, the kind of family affection that was thicker than water still made Jia Heng extremely happy.
"I've been playing a lot lately."
Princess Xianning's beautiful eyes looked at the young man in python suit under her slender eyebrows. There was a hint of sweetness in her bright and graceful eyebrows, and she asked: "What will your husband be called after he is born? Have you thought about it yet?"
?”
Under Jia Heng's eyebrows, there was a little surprise in his eyes, and he said: "It's not necessarily a boy or a girl. Isn't it a little too early to choose a name now?"
Princess Xianning's voice contained a hint of "coquettish women are the best", and said: "Sir, prepare in advance."
Jia Heng thought for a while and said, "The girl will be called Chacha, and the boy will be called Jia Zhu. The book will be written."
Princess Xianning's face, as beautiful as snow, seemed to be filled with a prosperous smile, and she said in a low voice: "Chacha, it's a pretty good name. It's just that the nickname is okay, but the big name isn't that good."
Jia Heng smiled and said, "Then you get another one for her."
As Princess Xianning spoke, she leaned her beautiful head against Jia Heng's heart and said warmly: "Sir, I want a son and a daughter."
The beauty originally wanted to say twins, but then she realized something was wrong and changed her words.
Jia Heng gently put his arm around the beauty's shoulders, feeling bursts of joy in his heart.
Li Chanyue and Song Yan looked at the family of "three" and felt a little envious. What did the two sisters do here?
Come to see other people love each other and be a family?
Jia Heng and Princess Xianning cuddled together for a while, staring at the increasingly dark sky outside, and said in a warm voice: "Xianning, you should also sleep more, I'll go see my eldest sister."
Princess Xianning said: "Brother Heng, let's go."
After Jia Heng left, Princess Xianning called Song Yan and Li Chanyue through a beautiful mica screen and whispered: "Yan'er, Chanyue, come and talk to me."
Li Chanyue said: "My cousin has Mr. Jia accompanying her to talk, do you need me to come too?"
Song Yan chuckled, sat down nearby, and watched the two cousins chatting and laughing.

In the palace of the Prince of Chu, in the back house—
It was the cold winter morning of the twelfth lunar month in the 19th year of Chongping. The rockeries were piled up, and the white snow shrouded in the courtyard of the pavilions gradually melted under the warm winter sunlight. The snow water gently followed the blue brick and black tile walls.
It flows and hits the bluestone slab, and wet marks can be seen crisscrossing it.
King Chen Qin of Chu is preparing for the enthronement ceremony three days later. At this moment, he is trying on a dress and wearing a jade crown, accompanied by several female officials and nuns.
This is a dress that is completely different from the prince's python suit. There is a white dragon embroidered in the middle, and the cuffs also have dragon and phoenix patterns. It is more noble than the prince's python suit.
At this moment, Zhen Qing was hugging her son Chen Jie and watching King Chu try on the dress with a bright smile.
My daughter Yinyin's chubby face was white and rosy, as bright as the clouds. She was holding a handful of melon seeds in her chubby hands, and her eyes were moving like black grapes, very lively.
At this moment, there is really a family of four, enjoying themselves and having a sense of happiness and contentment.
"Your Majesty, this one looks better." Zhen Qing said charmingly with a smile on her face, as if there were ripples in her eyes.
"Gu Ye thinks this outfit looks good." King Chu Chen Qin smiled, his face full of pride.
It can be said that the King of Chu has been blessed with the spring breeze these past few days, and his horse's hoofs have been broken. His long-cherished wish has been fulfilled. How can he not feel so happy and inexplicable? He has been feeling windy when walking these past few days.
King Chen Qin of Chu took off his clothes and handed them to the female official who was serving him with a tray. He solemnly warned: "Take good care of it and don't make any mistakes."
The female officer responded quickly without daring to be negligent.
For example, in "The Palace Plan", the internal fighting between the female officials may revolve around the scene where there is a flaw in the dress, and then the silly and sweet heroine takes action to sew it up.
King Chen Qin of Chu said this, stepped forward, picked up his son, smiled and said: "Jie'er, in the future, my father will also customize a suit for you."
At this moment, Chen Qin, the king of Chu, felt a sense of belonging to the country while chatting with the kings of history.
For example, Liu Qi made a drunken gaffe and said he wanted to pass the throne to Liu Wu. He might not take it seriously afterwards, but the person involved would remember it clearly.
He does not mean that.
When Zhen Qing heard this, her cold and bright jade face seemed to have a layer of blush on both sides, and said: "Your Highness."
When His Highness succeeds to the throne, her son will immediately become the crown prince to prevent her from ending up like a woman from the Song family in the future.
King Chen Qin of Chu hugged his son and teased him for a while, making an appointment with his mind. He turned to look at Chu Princess Zhen Qing and said: "Go to the study to talk to Liao Xian and the others. Princess, please take good care of Jie'er here."
Zhen Qing smiled and said: "My lord, go ahead, I'll take care of Jie'er here."
King Chen Qin of Chu did not say much, straightened his clothes and walked towards the study.
At this moment, in the study room——
Liao Xian and Feng Ci were sitting on a pear-wood backrest chair, their faces seemed to show excitement, and they were drinking tea and chatting.
King Chen Qin of Chu stepped into the study and called: "Mr. Liao, Mr. Feng."
The two of them quickly stood up and said, "I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."
The two of them were still a little dizzy at the moment, because as the vassal of the King of Chu, the hope of seizing the direct heir was very slim, but in the end it was the King of Chu who took over the East Palace.
King Chu Chen Qin looked at the two people, and he could not help but feel a surge of joy in his heart, but there was no change in his face. He said: "Mr. Liao, Mr. Feng, there is no need to be polite."
These are all the ministers who live in the palace at present, and they will help the king of Chu in the future.
Liao Xian said: "Your Highness, Prince Zhan's Office has already begun preparations, but the selection of talents has not yet been made. This matter needs to be handled by His Highness the Prince himself."
According to the Han official system, there were many ministers in the East Palace, mainly including Prince Zhan Shifu, Zuo Chunfang, and Liu Cao, which was almost a complete set of small court organizations.
"These things must be handled by the Emperor Father. We cannot do anything on our own." King Chen Qin of Chu raised his sword eyebrows and said loudly with a deep look in his eyes.
However, because Emperor Chongping was still lying on his bed, selecting people from the pavilions would have to be delayed for the time being.
King Chen Qin of Chu nodded and said: "However, there have been more and more affairs in the government recently. Mr. Liao can be appointed as the judge of Cao affairs, and Mr. Feng can be the judge of household Cao affairs, assisting Gu Gong in managing the affairs of the government."
When Liao Xian heard this, he couldn't help but feel shocked. He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust."
Feng Ci was also excited and bowed his hands.
This is how the ministers of Long were treated. It can almost be predicted that after the King of Chu came to the throne, the two people would be the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel and the Minister of the Ministry of Hubu.
The King of Chu said coldly: "In the past few days, Qiu Liang has been assassinated in the capital. It can be seen that the remnants of King Zhao are active in the capital again."
Mentioning the remnants of King Zhao, King Chen Qin of Chu's face was as gloomy as iron, and there was a cold glint in his eyes.
Because a son had died at the hands of Chen Yuan before, so one can imagine the resentment in his heart.
Liao Xian frowned and said: "The cabinet summoned Prince Wei into the palace for some unknown reason. Perhaps it was because Qiu Liang had stolen the power of Jinyi Mansion and left."
King Chu Chen Qin frowned and said: "Jia Ziyu is still the governor of Jinyi, but he just no longer cares about the affairs in Jinyi. He may not want to assassinate Qiu Liang. Ziyu will not be so unwise."
Liao Xian said: "Your Highness, you should be more careful these days."
King Chen Qin of Chu nodded and said: "The guards of the palace must be alert in the past few days. The Crown Prince will lead the preparations for the sixth time. He will go to the capital camp to select capable men to enrich his troops. He must be loyal and diligent."
The King of Chu was not a fool either. After experiencing the assassination in Jiangnan, he was no less vigilant about such things.
Feng Ci said warmly: "Your Highness, the recent inauguration ceremony of the East Palace has been complicated with personnel. The guards from the Beijing Camp and Jinyi Mansion will also be dispatched to escort Your Highness without making any mistakes."
Three days later, the King of Chu will enter the palace and receive the congratulations from the civil and military officials in the Hanyuan Hall. From then on, the prince will supervise the country. At that time, his status as a great king will be established.
The King of Chu looked solemn and said: "The main thing to guard against ceremonial matters is to take charge of the crown prince Liu Ling. Others can't trust him alone."
Feng Ci nodded in agreement.
At this moment, a servant from outside entered the study and reported: "Your Royal Highness, someone from the Zhen family in Jiangnan is waiting for you in the flower hall in the front yard."
A month ago, the Zhen family sent Zhen Jue, the son of Zhen Shao, to the capital. They happened to meet the King of Chu on the road and established him as the East Palace. Zhen Jue was overjoyed and traveled day and night to rush to the capital.
Chen Qin, the king of Chu, heard this and said to Feng Ci and Liao Xian who were standing aside: "Now is the time to employ people. He has come just in time. You can go and have a look with me."
Then, without saying much, he left the study and went to the hall to meet someone from the Zhen family.
At this moment, in the flower hall, Zhen Jue, the son of Zhen Shao, is drinking tea and waiting. He is in his early thirties, has a rough face, a short beard under his chin, and a strong temperament.
Zhen Jue heard the footsteps outside, stood up, saluted to King Chen Qin of Chu, and said, "I have met His Highness the Crown Prince."
There was a hint of excitement in Zhen Jue's voice.
It has been several years since the Zhen family was exiled. I originally thought that there would be no chance of the Zhen family turning around, but I never thought that the King of Chu would one day establish himself as the Eastern Palace.
It's true that the tides are turning and everything will turn out well.
"Brother, please get up quickly." The King of Chu came forward and suddenly held Zhen Jue's arm, expressing comfort in his words.
Zhen Jue quickly walked towards King Chu and said, "Your Highness, after so many years, Your Highness's demeanor is indeed even better than before."
The King of Chu also had a rare hint of heartiness in his smile, and said: "I haven't seen you for a few years. I have been fighting in the north and south in these years, and I have aged a lot."
The two of them chatted and sat down on a pearwood chair. The servant brought a blue and white porcelain tea cup, then bowed and retreated slowly.
The King of Chu smiled and said: "I was just saying that at this time of employment, Brother Shi came at the right time. Now that the Sixth Army of the East Palace has just been established, the military strength is insufficient, and a strong general like Brother Shi is needed to take charge."
Zhen Jue's eyes were full of determination and she said categorically: "Your Highness, don't worry, even if I risk my life, I will protect Your Highness."
King Chu's eyes showed expectation and he said, "I'll leave everything to my brother."
Zhen Jue clasped her fists and said, "It's your responsibility, don't dare to ignore it."
At this moment, she heard a string of laughter like silver bells coming from outside. Zhen Qing entered the house from under the eaves, smiled and said, "Brother is here."
Zhen Jue stood up quickly and said, "I have met the Crown Princess."
Zhen Qing's eyes were gentle, her smile was as bright as the clouds, and she said: "I don't need to be polite."
While speaking, the beauty took a graceful and gorgeous step and sat down on a pear wood chair. Under the beautiful cloud bun and the curved willow eyebrows, her beautiful eyes were as bright as water and she smiled.
Yanran Rutao asked: "Where are the second uncle and the others at this time?"
Zhen Jue said seriously: "Since receiving the letter from the princess, the uncle and the others have been running day and night towards the sacred capital."
Zhen Qing nodded and said: "The prince is now isolated and helpless in the capital. It is when he needs the support of his family. If father and others can come earlier, they will be more stable."
Zhen Jue asked: "I don't know what the situation is in Beijing now?"
Zhen Qing smiled and said: "Didn't His Highness tell you before? In a few days, the crown prince canonization ceremony will be held. Hundreds of civil and military officials will enter the palace to celebrate. At that time, he will become the prince of the supervisory country, and his title will be roughly determined."
Hearing this, Zhen Jue said in an excited tone: "What the princess said is true. By then, it will be confirmed."
Zhen Qing changed the topic again and said: "Don't be too careless. If you travel a hundred miles, you have to be neither arrogant nor impetuous."
King Chen Qin of Chu had a look of approval on his handsome and fair face, and said: "What the princess said is to guard against arrogance and impetuosity."
Turning around, he raised his eyes to look at Zhen Jue and said: "Brother Shi has come a long way. The saddle and horse are tired. First, I go to bathe and change clothes. Later, I will take care of my brother."
Zhen Jue stood up, bowed her hands towards King Chen Qin of Chu, and then left the wing.
Chen Qin nodded, watched Zhen Jue leave, turned to look at Zhen Qing, and asked, "Should we also ask Zi Yu to send more guards in Jinyi to protect us on the road?"
Zhen Qing thought for a while and asked: "Your Highness, aren't the affairs of Jinyi Mansion now handed over to Qiu Liang?"
King Chu Chen Qin frowned and said: "As the commander of Jinyi City, how can Qiu Liang do a good job in guarding and guarding when his own safety cannot be guaranteed?"
The dignified commander in command can't even guarantee his own personal safety. This really doesn't make people have much confidence.
Zhen Qing's cool and graceful face was filled with worry, and she said, "It's important to be on guard against others. Will the King of Wei jump over the wall in a hurry?"
Chen Qin, the king of Chu, said: "Although I have to guard against it, I think that the king of Wei should not dare. He is not alone, and there is the Song family behind him. Besides, how can the world obey him when he does such a treason and injustice? His prestige is not enough to suppress the masses.
Sir, if nothing else, Ziyu will not sit back and watch the King of Wei commit this treasonous act."
Zhen Qing raised her eyes, her beautiful eyes as moist as water were full of determination, and said: "Your Highness, I will go to Ningguo Mansion tomorrow to ask Jia Ziyu's idea."
Upon hearing this, Chen Qin, the King of Chu, nodded and said, "That's fine, let Zi Yu help me keep an eye on it. With his sea-fixing needle here, Gu's mind will be more secure."
In fact, Jia Heng's presence in Shenjing City also made the cabinet and the King of Chu optimistically misjudge some situations to some extent.
That is to say, the King of Wei would not do anything treasonous and unethical, and it was Jia Heng, the emperor's son-in-law, who might need to be on guard.
