817, monitor the country
The queen forced herself to bear the charge of the fox-smugness on her head and charming the Lord. As the lord of the harem, it is a great shame to bear such a bad reputation, but at this time, the queen has to bear it even if she is wronged! Even if she is wronged, she can still leave a good impression on the emperor. If she cannot bear to spread the emperor's illness, she will end up complaining to the emperor.
Because the emperor's mentality of seeking face, it would rather others misunderstand that he was indulging in women and misunderstood the government, he would never know that he was in charge of the court because he was sick.
Because he is sick, it means he is old, which means he is out of energy, which means that the court officials are yelling to make him a crown prince again, which means that the power is transferred!
In the past, the emperor did not establish a crown prince because he was hoping that there would be more princes in the harem and he could have more choices. Now there is no hope for a few more princes. The emperor still did not establish a crown prince because he did not want to establish it! First, it was because King Qing had a bad character and had a biological mother who was not good at death. He was afraid that the court officials would oppose it too much, which would be unfavorable to the stability of the government. More importantly, the emperor himself was not convinced of his old age and refused to admit that he was unable to handle government affairs and could not manage the ten thousand miles of rivers and mountains. It seemed that as long as the crown prince was not established, it would be able to delay his physical aging infinitely. It seemed that the ministers would not have any unfaithful intentions. It seemed that the ten thousand miles of rivers and mountains were still tightly held in his hands.
However, after the Empress Dowager issued an imperial edict to allow King Ji and Lord Fu to temporarily take over the government affairs, Lord Fu immediately took sick leave. Regardless of whether the Empress Dowager agreed or not, he stopped going to court and ignored the Empress Dowager's imperial edict.
It is not a good job to temporarily replace the government affairs. If you do it well, that is what you should do. And if you do it well, it may cause the emperor to suspicion and fear! If you do it poorly, you will accidentally delay some urgent government affairs. It will not only mislead your government affairs, but also mislead your future, and even lose your head!
Even a person like Lord Fu is afraid of being too tempted. Of course, King Ji knew that this imperial edict was unacceptable and did not want to take on this hot potato in his heart. However, King Ji was led by the Empress Dowager, and now he cannot turn against the Empress Dowager directly. He cannot give up as tough as Lord Fu. He finally gritted his teeth and quarreled with King De because of his differences in opinions on Qiu Shi and almost fought.
Prince De's daughter, Princess Chang'an, was a friend of Rouran, who was a meritorious person to Dayin. All the civil and military officials in the court wanted to make King De three points. King De also felt that he was more respectful than others. King Ji had a big fight with King De. King De could not hold on to his face and insisted on debating his strengths and weaknesses with King Ji. In the end, the Empress Dowager was alarmed. At this time, King Ji believed that he was wrong, and then he voluntarily resigned and voluntarily thought about his mistakes. King De could not save his face and was very proud. The Empress Dowager was unhappy and secretly blamed King De for his bad things!
In this way, there is no minister who can trust and rely on. The Empress Dowager had to rule the country from behind the curtain, but it was inappropriate for women to come to the court. Some old and stubborn censors even cursed Si Chen directly in front of the Empress Dowager. It was extremely unpleasant!
So someone began to propose to become a crown prince.
In the past, it was not that no one mentioned the issue of the establishment of the crown prince. At the signing of the Deng family, someone occasionally reported the issue of the establishment of the crown prince, but the emperor ignored it and the ministers were also tactful, so they gradually stopped mentioning it! Now that the emperor is not in court, it is the turn of the Empress Dowager to rule the country from behind the curtain. When someone proposed to be appointed, the Empress Dowager did not immediately reject it, but instead said that he would discuss it later.
The Empress Dowager's attitude made King Qing's host see the dawn, so there were more and more memorials asking King Qing to be the crown prince. The Empress Dowager looked at the memorials asking King Qing to be the crown prince, and was inevitably a little excited. The Emperor wanted to win over the Zheng family to suppress the Deng family, and his intention to weaken the Deng family was obvious. However, if King Qing became the crown prince in the hands of the Deng family, King Qing naturally had to rely on the Deng family to surpass other families. No matter how the Emperor excluded the Deng family, it would be useless. After all, the Emperor was old...
However, the emperor finally needs to decide on the matter of becoming a crown prince. The Empress Dowager could not be the emperor's ruler even if he acted intently. However, given the memorials that opposed her from behind the curtain, the Empress Dowager finally decided to lift King Qing's confinement and let King Qing supervise the country.
This is a way to be in the middle. King Qing is the only descendant of the emperor. Although he does not have the name of the crown prince, he is a real crown prince. King Qing is the most suitable candidate. No one in the court can say a word of opposition. No one in the civil and military officials of the court can say anything. Even though King Qing is absurd and despicable, even though he had only given birth to an incident that shocked the murder of a girl in the entire capital, Qing
After all, the king is the only legitimate person. Even if he cannot push King Qing to the position of crown prince overnight, he can gradually push King Qing to the previous dynasty step by step. If the emperor has been sick for a longer time, the Deng family will probably be able to control most of the government affairs in the name of King Qing.
Although the Deng family was in charge of the court, after careful consideration, it was revealed that all this was actually the shadow of the Fu family. The Fu family finally pushed King Qing out step by step. On the verge of King Qing’s despair, he pushed the position above ten thousand people below one person, and put the Deng family’s ambition to a height that he could never take back!
The Fu family's move is really high! Taking advantage of the emperor's illness, the Deng family forced the Deng family to push King Qing out when the time was not yet ripe. It was just easy to push it out, but it was difficult to take it back. Even if King Qing could take it back? Then, could the emperor take it back? Can the emperor take it back for suspicion of King Qing?
Once the seeds of suspicion are planted, they will never be pulled out again! The Deng family is proud of it now, but what is waiting behind them is a deep abyss.
Because the Empress Dowager claimed that the Empress was sick, the Zheng family also sent people to the palace to visit the hospital. The old lady and Mrs. Zheng Si came back shortly after they went there. However, after returning, Mrs. Zheng Si's face was not very good, and Xu Shu was shocked.
"Is it really the Queen's body ill?"
Mrs. Zheng Si shook her head and nodded heavily after leaving the maid. "The Empress's complexion is indeed poor, and the main hall is full of strong medicine. Moreover... This time I entered the palace and didn't see Madam Yuan who was always inseparable from the Empress. The palace maid who served the Empress had also changed a few different faces. When I was talking to the old lady with the Empress, the two palace maids were always by the side. The old lady wanted to say something to the Empress but couldn't do anything to do!"
