Chapter 1636 Li Zan: The Eighth Prince Long Zhang Fengzi has a gentle nature
…
palace garden, palace
Just when Empress Song and Princess Xianning were worried about the "forcing the palace" in front of the palace gate, they heard the voices of the nuns and female officials from outside.
"Concubine Rong is here." A nun said.
But I saw a beautiful woman in a plain white dress with a graceful and graceful demeanor. She quickly entered the palace and spread the fragrant fragrance along the way.
On top of the lush bun on the temples, a golden hairpin swayed gently, showing a rather elegant and calm manner.
It can be said that the smoke looks charming and the bright light is moving.
Queen Song asked curiously: "Sister, are you here?"
Concubine Duanrong said softly: "Sister, something happened outside, and I couldn't feel at ease in Funing Palace, so I came over to see you."
When Empress Song raised her eyes, she called Concubine Duanrong over and asked, "I just told you that everything is fine."
Concubine Duanrong trimmed her eyebrows, her watery eyes flickered, and asked: "Sister, if such a big thing happened in the capital, Ziyu should be back."
Princess Xianning said: "If such a big thing happens, your husband will definitely come back."
Queen Song was silent for a moment and said: "Yes."
That little fox happened to go to Taiyuan at this time. What should they do if those rebels broke into the palace?
At this moment, a nanny with an old face wearing silk and satin quickly entered the palace and said: "Concubine Rong, the Queen Mother is inviting Concubine Rong to come over at Wuying Hall."
Concubine Duanrong couldn't help but feel inexplicably happy, but there was no trace of her beautiful and graceful jade face. She said: "Sister, I won't accompany you. I'll go over first."
Empress Song watched Concubine Duanrong leave, her heart filled with speculation.
Princess Xianning frowned and said, "Concubine, she..."
"Your mother-in-law is a little weird." Empress Song's emerald eyebrows frowned slightly, and there was a hint of doubt in her voice.
After all, they have been sisters in the boudoir for many years, and Empress Song was still able to keenly capture some of Concubine Duanrong's emotional changes.
Palace Garden, Wuying Palace——
Empress Dowager Feng had gray hair and sat expressionlessly on a pearwood chair, while Zhen Qing, who was dressed in aqua blue dress, had an earthy complexion, and her face was full of sadness.
"The Queen Mother, the Imperial Concubine is here." At this moment, a tall and tall young eunuch came in from the outside and said.
While everyone was talking, they followed the sound and looked at Concubine Duanrong.
"I have met Empress Dowager Zeng." As Concubine Duanrong spoke, she walked forward quickly with plump steps and whispered.
Empress Dowager Feng's voice was a little gentle and she said, "Concubine Rong is here."
Concubine Duanrong looked respectful, bowed Yingyingfu, and said softly: "I don't know if the Empress Dowager Zeng has summoned me. What can I tell you?"
Empress Dowager Feng put down the blue and white porcelain tea cup in her hand, looked at Li Zan aside, and whispered: "Let Mr. Li Ge tell you."
Li Zan said: "Concubine Rong, the ministers, and the Empress Dowager Zeng have discussed and decided to make the eighth prince Chen Ze the new monarch. He will be enshrined in the ancestral temple and carry the country on his shoulders."
At this moment, Zhen Qing was sitting not far away, her flawless white face seemed to be filled with livid anger, and her eyes were full of anger and glare.
This Concubine Rong is here to steal the throne from her family Jier, damn it!
Concubine Duanrong asked deliberately: "This... Duan Duan is so good, why do you want to depose and establish a new king?"
"The young master is approaching the court, and the country is in turmoil. The eighth prince is handsome and gentle, and he is worthy of the country's importance." Li Zan's face became solemn, and his voice was a little clearer, and he said loudly.
At this time, the issue of Chen Ze's bloodline was no longer brought up.
Queen Mother Feng took over the conversation and asked: "Where is Ze'er?"
Concubine Duanrong said softly: "Go back to the Queen Mother, Ze'er is still studying in Funing Palace at the moment."
Queen Mother Feng said quickly: "Let Ze'er come over."
After hearing the words, Imperial Concubine Duanrong responded and ordered the accompanying female officials to go to Funing Palace to find Chen Ze.
While Li Zan was speaking, he winked at the cabinet clerk beside him, and then quickly left the Wuying Hall and went to greet the eighth prince Chen Ze.
Zhen Qing's jade face, as crystal clear as snow, was covered with frost, and she said: "You are so bold and reckless. We will see how you end up when King Wei returns from Taiyuan!"
By now, Zhen Qing was feeling a little panicked. It could be said that Zhen Qing had never thought of reaching this point.
In Zhen Qing's imagination, she should have stood on the top of the city and reprimanded the generals of the Beijing camp. The generals of the Beijing camp revealed that Li Zan and others were the masterminds behind the scenes. She gave the order to arrest Li Zan and others, and established her own identity from then on.
The prestige of the Queen Mother.
But all this is just a moment of Zhen Qing's fantasy, just a fleeting moment of time and space.
Empress Dowager Feng spoke in a gentle tone and said: "Concubine Rong, Ze'er is smart and filial. When the time comes, let him ascend the throne and become emperor, and he will surely become a wise king."
After a while, several burly young eunuchs, surrounded by a young man with a strong and tall figure and stern eyebrows, walked into the hall.
"Mother Concubine." Chen Zexing came to Duanrong Noble Concubine, bowed respectfully, and said in a low voice: "I have met Mother Concubine."
Concubine Duanrong looked at Chen Ze, pointed at Li Zan beside her, and introduced: "Ze'er, this is Mr. Li Ge, you two have a chat."
Li Zan looked at the young man with a heroic demeanor, his eyes were quite warm, as if he had seen the future generation of holy emperors, and he said in an encouraging tone: "Your Highness, the eighth prince, the current situation in the court is in turmoil. After the eighth prince ascends the throne, he will introduce the constitution of King Sejong.
The emperor's legacy is to carry forward the great achievements of Chongping New Deal."
Chen Ze showed a look of nostalgia on his face and said: "Mr. Li Ge, when my father was still alive, he always taught me. Although I was young at the time, I never dared or forgot my father's teachings."
Although the eighth prince was not given much hope by Imperial Concubine Duanrong, thanks to Lu Li's attention at that time, he had learned a lot about literary and military strategies and the way of governing the country in recent years.
Empress Dowager Feng nodded with satisfaction and said, "Mr. Li Ge, please draw up the decree."
Li Zan nodded, then looked at Qi Kun aside, and whispered: "Mr. Qi Ge, you and I will write the book together."
Once the imperial edict is drawn up and spread throughout the country, the dust will have settled and it will be difficult to change it.
Qi Kun sighed secretly, came to a lacquered wood desk, gently picked up a wool brush, and began to write the imperial edict.
The first imperial edict was to dethrone the young emperor Chen Jie from the throne. It mainly detailed the chaos that had occurred in the court since Chen Jie succeeded to the throne, leading to warnings of natural disasters.
The second letter was an imperial edict to establish the eighth prince Chen Ze. In the imperial edict, Li Zan praised Chen Ze as rare and unparalleled in the world.
Zhen Qing was sitting on a pearwood chair nearby, quietly watching the scene of the two cabinet ministers preparing to abolish the throne. She felt that her hands and feet were cold and she could not control herself.
They are trying to take away the throne from her son. This is simply unreasonable!
She, Zhen Qing, would never agree!
Just wait, wait until that bastard comes back, and show these people a good look!
No, didn’t that bastard say it was just a show?
Here, Empress Dowager Feng's old and fair face looked kindly at the eighth prince Chen Ze, and warned: "When you ascend the throne and become emperor, you must be a good emperor who is diligent and loves the people."
Chen Ze had just vaguely noticed something. Now that he got the confirmation from Empress Dowager Feng, he couldn't help but feel inexplicably shocked.
Is this to make him emperor?
Although Chen Ze had considered this matter in the past, he never dared to think about it.
Concubine Duanrong raised her eyes to look at her son, and there was an inexplicable sense of relief in her shining eyes.
Ze'er has really grown up.
After Qi Kun had drafted the imperial edict, he immediately handed it to Li Zan who was standing aside and said: "Mr. Ge, the imperial edict has been drafted."
Li Zan raised his sword eyebrows, his eyes were bright, and he whispered: "Use the seal."
As he spoke, a cabinet clerk held a jade seal, dipped it in red ink mud, and stamped it on the imperial edict of light yellow silk.
At this time, Empress Dowager Feng said: "Mr. Li Ge, spread the imperial edict to China and abroad, and communicate it to all prefectures and counties."
Li Zan raised his thin eyebrows, his cold eyes were warm, he cupped his hands and said, "Yes, empress."
"King Wei will probably come over if he knows about the unexpected events in the capital." Under Empress Dowager Feng's slender eyebrows with green leaves like willows, her jade face paused slightly and she said softly.
Zhen Qing's face was ashen as death, but her heart was filled with worry.
They are going to depose Jier's throne.
At this moment, the beauty was so sad that she could hardly breathe.
At this moment, while Li Zan was speaking, he came to Empress Dowager Feng and said softly: "Your Majesty, please take over the affairs of the palace for the time being."
Empress Dowager Feng's face paused slightly and said, "I'll just leave these to Concubine Rong."
At this moment, Concubine Duanrong's expression paused slightly, and under her emerald eyebrows, she looked at Empress Dowager Feng with warm eyes. She walked closer and said, "I will put the Zhen family under house arrest first."
As he spoke, he ordered the palace maids and eunuchs beside him, saying: "Keep Zhen in custody in Kunning Palace for the time being, and we will talk about the rest later."
"Yes." Zhou Fang's eunuch and the palace maid didn't say much else, and immediately spoke.
Li Zan cupped his hands and said: "The Queen Mother, early tomorrow morning, the ministers will summon the civil and military officials of the court to support the new king."
As the saying goes, the nights are long and the dreams are many. As long as the status of king and minister is determined first, the rest of the matter will be easier to handle.
At this time, everyone tacitly agreed not to mention Jia Heng.
In other words, the negotiation with Jia Heng will have to wait until Jia Heng returns from Shenjing City.
Empress Dowager Feng was also a little tired. Accompanied by several nuns, she left Wuying Hall and headed towards the back house.
At this moment, several nuns and female officials helped Zhen Qing, who was in despair, to leave Wuying Palace and go to Kunning Palace for confinement.
Concubine Duanrong stared at Li Zan at this moment. Under her emerald eyebrows, her eyes were shining brightly, and she said: "Mr. Li Ge, soldiers and horses are lingering in the palace again. The aura of swords has disturbed the clan and also disturbed the people in the government and the public.
Surprised and uncertain."
Li Zan was silent for a moment and said: "Don't worry, Madam, since everything has been done, we will not let the soldiers and horses of the Beijing camp disturb the peace of the palace."
Concubine Duanrong raised her slender eyebrows and asked with clear eyes, "What do you say, Ziyu?"
Li Zan thought for a while and said softly: "Your Majesty, you can go talk to Princess Xianning more."
In the next negotiation with King Wei, Princess Xianning's attitude is crucial.
Princess Xianning now has the flesh and blood of King Wei, so it is impossible that King Wei will not throw a rat weapon at her.
Concubine Duanrong said softly: "Xianning is in the palace right now, and I will talk to her soon."
At this moment, Li Zan didn't say much else. His eyes flashed brightly and he said: "Your Majesty, in a few days, King Wei may come back. Whether you can force King Wei to make concessions at that time depends entirely on your Majesty and Princess Xianning."
On the body."
Imperial Concubine Duanrong looked at Li Zan with a worried look on her face and said, "Then just remove Ziyu's princely title. Don't force it too much."
The palms and backs of your hands are all flesh, so there is no need to tear your face apart.
Li Zan made a face and calmed down his expression, raised his hands and said: "Don't worry, Madam, King Wei is the pillar of the country. How can the government and the public do harm to him? Now that he has been stripped of his title as a prince, his title as a county king is still hereditary. He is separated from the country. This is the way to protect him."
The long-lasting way.”
Concubine Duanrong nodded and said, "Then I will help you, Mr. Li Ge."
Li Zan nodded, his eyes shining brightly, and he raised his hands in agreement.
After Concubine Duanrong finished speaking, she didn't stay in Wuying Hall any longer and went outside.
As for the eighth prince Chen Ze, he stayed in the Wuying Palace, and Li Zan'er made arrangements for his enthronement in the next few days.
Seeing this scene, Yan Ye knew that the overall situation was now settled, and an unspeakable sense of ecstasy inevitably surged in his heart.
When the new emperor ascends the throne and rewards the meritorious officials, his title of county king will surely be restored.
Cao Bianjiao watched this scene from the side, but his tiger eyes under his thick eyebrows couldn't help but feel a little gloomy.
In a few days, King Wei should come over.
…
…
In the palace where Queen Song is located——
Empress Song was sitting on a soft couch covered with a mattress, and an inexplicable color appeared on her beautiful jade face, which was as white as snow.
Under Princess Xianning's slender eyebrows, her sparkling eyes flickered for a moment, and she said, "I don't know what the situation is like outside? The shouts of killing seem to be getting weaker now."
There was a hint of uncertainty in Queen Song's tone as she said, "It should be over by now."
Princess Xianning frowned and trimmed her eyebrows, a look of thought appeared on her jade face as white as snow, and she said softly: "Mother, I vaguely feel that the situation is not good."
Under the plump eyebrows of Empress Song, her eyes were warm and she said softly: "What's going on?"
And at this moment, a tall nun with a fair face entered the hall and whispered: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty Duanrong is here."
After hearing this, Queen Song asked curiously: "Sister, what's going on outside? Why did the Queen Mother call you over?"
Concubine Duanrong's graceful and gorgeous face had an extremely prosperous smile, and she said: "Sister, the war outside has disappeared."
Empress Song raised her slender eyebrows and said with warm eyes, "What's going on?"
Concubine Duanrong's jade face as white as snow seemed to be covered with a layer of red aura like drunkenness. She pursed her slightly pink lips and said softly: "What the Queen Mother means is to depose the young emperor Chen
Jie, and then let Zeer ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor."
Queen Song: "..."
What's going on? How can Ze'er ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor?
At this moment, Queen Song probably felt a sense of surprise.
Because in Empress Song's senses, Concubine Duanrong had always had a non-competing and non-competing temperament, but with such a non-competing and non-competing temperament, she picked the biggest fruit in the end.
Concubine Duanrong seemed to be feeling a little emotional and said: "Sister, what the Queen Mother and the cabinet mean is that the country has no long-term monarch and the young master is in doubt. Ze'er is a little older and happens to be in charge."
Queen Song calmed down her complex thoughts and said softly: "Ze'er, he is smart, benevolent and filial. If he can ascend the throne and become emperor, it will be a good thing for the country and the people."
At this moment, when Empress Song raised her eyes, she couldn't help but glance at Chen Luo not far away, and felt an indescribable sadness in her heart.
She is the elder sister, and her Luo'er has not yet become emperor.
Princess Xianning showed off her slender willow-leaf eyebrows and her beautiful eyes were full of disbelief. She asked in surprise: "Is my brother going to ascend the throne?"
It's so good, why does Adi become the emperor?
"Empress Dowager Zeng has decided that the cabinet will draft a decree to make your eighth brother the emperor, and it will be delivered to Shenjing in the next two days." Imperial Concubine Duanrong explained.
After saying that, Concubine Duanrong turned to Princess Xianning and said, "Xianning, your brother has ascended the throne this time, and you, as the elder sister, need to take more care of him."
Under Princess Xianning's slender eyebrows, her beautiful eyes twinkled, and she asked in a concerned tone: "Mother, Concubine, does Sir know about this matter?"
Princess Xianning was not without political wisdom, and she probably understood that this was a coup that was hidden from Jia Heng.
I'm afraid Xiang Zhuang's sword dance is aimed at Pei Gong.
After hearing this, Imperial Concubine Duanrong's smile on her cool and graceful face clearly froze a little, and she said, "Didn't Ziyu go to Taiyuan?"
Princess Xianning said: "What should I do after my husband comes back?"
Under the emerald eyebrows of Imperial Concubine Duanrong, her charming and flowing eyes were moistening the soft ripples, and she said: "After he comes back, it would be nice for the concubine to talk to him again.
Not too late."
Empress Song was talking to her mother and daughter beside her. She was clearly thinking back and forth and was somewhat unsettled.
That little fox, would he really be willing to give up his son's throne to someone else?
Instead of doing this, it would be better to take her son over at once, ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor, and he will surely become the Mingjun and the Holy Lord.
Under the slender willow eyebrows of Duan Rong, the beautiful eyes were shining like water. She said in a low voice: "Zi Yu is in Taiyuan, Shanxi at the moment. I don't know how he is doing."
Princess Xianning's charming clear eyes seemed to be moistened with charming waves. A wave of worry surged in her heart, and she whispered: "Sir should be here in the next two days."
Concubine Duanrong felt some inexplicable worries in her heart, and sighed: "Yes."
I'm just afraid that Ziyu won't give up when he comes back.
But she was also forced. Who allowed Ziyu to mess up the palace curtains and dishonor the emperor's bloodline?
Emperor Sejongxian treated him well, how could he do such a shameless thing?
Empress Song raised her eyes and glanced at the vast sky outside. Her thoughts were complicated and incomprehensible, and she whispered in a low voice: "Sister, it's getting late. Let's have a meal first."
Concubine Duanrong responded softly, then picked up a pair of bamboo chopsticks and started eating, but she felt quite uneasy.
