Chang Qing's expression became more and more serious. When I said those four words, her breathing sank slightly.
I saw her eyes flashing suddenly, and then quickly sank into her dark pupils.
After a while, she slowly said, "Responsible?"
“…”
"You mean, let Min Shen-"
"Yes, let the prince supervise the country."
In fact, it was not only Chang Qing who remembered the battle between the princes after the Emperor was unconscious, but I witnessed the whole story of the battle with my own eyes, and after Pei Yuanhao was unconscious, I remembered the past. After the Emperor was poisoned and unconscious, the name of the prince was not found in the imperial edict, and the strength of the princes at that time caused the chaos later. But now it is different. Although Pei Yuanhao did not have any edicts to pass the throne, he is still in his prime. Although he has been unconscious in the past two days, it cannot be said that he will never wake up. Moreover, among his sons, Nian Shen has obvious advantages and the identity of the prince, so that he can be resolute to the country. At least in terms of the orthodoxy of the royal family, no one can refute it.
only--
Chang Qing frowned and said slowly: "Although this is a way to stabilize people's hearts, Nianshen is too small... And, you also know that both fathers and Yan Qiu are--"
Speaking of this, she bit her lower lip herself.
My brows also frowned slightly.
The prince in his teenage years is actually not young. Besides, Nianshen has been with Fu Badai for so many years and has just experienced the major event of following Wu Yanqiu to manage floods in Henan. After these times, I feel that he has grown a lot and is much more mature than his peers.
However, Chang Qing's worries are not unreasonable. Although he is mature and sensible, he gradually begins to get involved in political affairs, but he is only in his teens after all. As the prince of the governor, he is indeed too young.
Moreover, there is another very important issue.
The prince’s reign generally needs a stable and powerful foreign family as support. If Pei Yuanhao is now sober and healthy, then naturally no one will move; if the emperor’s dragon body is ill, then the prince’s reign needs to rely on his mother’s family.
But Chang Qing's power is at its weakest time.
The Grand Tutor left Beijing, and Wu Yanqiu's life and death were unknown.
Although Chang Qing's ability is unquestionable, she never had the experience of being a regent, but was determined to stabilize Pei Yuanhao's harem. She had almost no ability to intimidate the court officials.
In this case, the prince will be in charge of the country, and some people will take advantage of the situation.
However, without waiting for me to say anything, Chang Qing said himself: "Mr. Fu and that--that--"
“Jingbixing.”
"Yes, it's him. Is it possible for them?"
I thought about it and said, "Old Mr. Fu, of course I will talk about it. But he is now devoted to compiling the official history. He said that only if he can get the action, he will take care of the affairs of the court. As for Qi Bixing, although he is the person he is interested in, he has no qualifications and no connections in the court after all, so he may not be of great use."
Chang Qing frowned.
I looked at her and said tentatively: "Before, Master Taishi left Beijing, almost no disciple and disciple were moved. These people-"
Chang Qing frowned and said, "These people are all managed by Yan Qiu. I have no close friends with them."
"But if the Queen uses them, can she use them?"
“…”
She was silent for a while, then raised her head to look at me, gritted her teeth, and said, "I will try my best."
When I heard her say this, I breathed a sigh of relief.
If we can mobilize the people who stayed by the Grand Tutor, including Fu Badai, Cha Bixing, and the prince who is legitimate in this situation, then we will at least have an advantage.
We discussed those people roughly. Although time was tight, Chang Qing was a person from the harem after all, so she could not meet those court officials with great fanfare. How to contact them is also a problem.
Chang Qing said: "Before my father left Beijing, that - Chabixing, although he is not a good minister in governing the country, many people who plan things have strange plans. I want him to run away for this matter. You just said that he has no qualifications and no connections. In this way, he will give him a chance."
As she said that, her eyes flashed and she looked at me.
I didn't say anything, but I got it.
This is also a way for her to win over Cha Bixing, and even to win over Xichuan and consolidate the prince's power when the relationship between Xichuan and the court fell into a delicate deadlock.
I nodded: "This is easy to deal with, I'll talk."
She nodded.
Speaking of this, both of us subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief. I raised my head and looked at the window. Through the window paper, I could see that the sky outside was already bright.
We discussed it for half an hour.
However, all of this, including the prince's reign, the activation of Chabixing, and the dispatching of the Taishi, were all on the premise that things could not be concealed.
As long as Pei Yuanhao is still at ease, as long as things can be temporarily pressed, letting the prince supervise the country be our last move.
Chang Qing obviously understood very well, and she said: "Before this, I still hope to keep things within the scope of the harem."
I thought about it and said, "Then I'm afraid I'll be later-"
Before he finished speaking, he heard Kouer come in from outside and report, "Qi Bi, Empress Li, Empress Zhuang, Lu Zhaoyi, and Zhu Chongyi and others are asking for a visit outside."
...
Come and get it quickly.
I haven't finished speaking yet.
I looked up at Chang Qing, but saw her brow frowning slightly, turned around and looked at me, with a faint confusion in her eyes.
I also understand what she is wondering about.
These people, led by Fang Zhijun, are all from Nangong Lizhu.
Their fathers and brothers who were officials in the court were also disciples of Nangong Jinhong or from the Shangshu clan. Sure enough, this time they stood up first.
It's just a little strange-
Chang Qing asked, "Didn't the imperial concubine come?"
Kuoer shook his head: "No."
“…”
"I even took a special look, but the concubine did not come."
“…”
This time, we were even more surprised.
When Fang Zhijun and his group came, there was naturally someone who explained that, otherwise they would not have gotten up so early and came so well, but why could the people who took the lead come?
Chang Qing thought for a while and said, "Let them come in."
As he said that, he looked at me again and said, "I don't want to see them, so I'll disappear first."
"Okay, you're here."
After saying that, Chang Qing slowly got up, walked to the place where she saw the guests outside, sat on the couch, and went out to pass the message. After a while, he heard footsteps coming in. I hid behind the curtain, and could not see anyone. I only smelled a mixed bag, and some smell of smell of smell of smell of powder rushed in.
"I'm going to pay homage to the Queen."
"Get up."
Chang Qing's voice was a little lazy, and the man leaned lazily on the couch, looking at them: "Why did you come here to pay your respects early in the morning? Is there anything wrong?"
The Lipin Fang Zhijun immediately smiled and said, "It's nothing big. I just heard that the Empress was unwell these days, so I came here to visit her."
"Yes, the Empress must take care of the phoenix body so that the Emperor can rest assured."
"It's something that makes you bother."
...
They sang together and said a lot of scenes. They didn't sleep well last night. I was dozing off inside. Seeing that my eyelids were about to fight, I heard outside silence. After a while, Lu Zhaoyi laughed twice and said, "Empress, the empress's body is inconsistent. I wonder if the emperor has come to Jingren Palace to see the empress."
Chang Qing smiled faintly: "It's just a small matter, no matter where you have to work, the emperor comes."
"How can the Queen's Phoenix Body be said to be a trivial matter!"
"Yes, Empress, Empress is the descendant of a country, and her mother is in the world. What can be more important than the Empress's affairs? It's not that they are those traitors who are unknown from the origin."
As soon as these words were said, the concubines were quiet for a while.
So, the atmosphere immediately became strange.
I saw Chang Qing laughing silently, her face still not changing, and she said gently: "Who are you talking about?"
"Who else can it be? Isn't that Miss Yan?"
At this time, Chang Qing's face slightly corrected and said, "She is Princess Miaoyan's mother, the lady of the Yan family in Nishikawa. It's not that she is unknown, and the emperor has not judged their Yan family as a traitor."
Those people were stunned.
"I won't say this in the future."
"……yes."
Fang Zhijun seemed a little guilty and her voice became lowered.
Chang Qing reached out to fix her clothes, and then slowly said, "I have nothing to do with my health. I know your feelings, so I will go back soon."
The few people didn't say anything. They felt that they met each other for a while and looked at each other. The queen said something, but no one moved. Obviously, the purpose was not achieved, and neither of them would act rashly.
Sure enough, after a pause, Chang Qing raised her head and looked at them: "Hmm?"
At this time, Fang Zhijun, who had just been scolded by Chang Qing, could no longer speak. Only Lu Zhaoyi gritted her teeth and said with a smile: "Empress, although the words of Lipin's sister just now are inappropriate, it is not unreasonable. That Yan - Yan Qingying, although the mother of His Royal Highness the Princess, her origin is hard to say. It is not common sense to live in this harem as a civilian woman, but now, the emperor has been lingering in her room for several days!"
"Yeah yeah!"
Zhu Chongyi on the other side also hurriedly said, "I have heard that the emperor has not even taken a step out of the Yihua Palace these days."
Chang Qing looked at them without saying a word.
At this time, the Lipin Fang Zhijun said slowly: "Empress, if she is favored again, it would be fine if the emperor is proud of her, but the sisters in the harem know that no matter how much the emperor favors her, there is no such time when he doesn't leave the harem for two or three days."
