Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

Page 693

A long time ago, Zhao Wen had planned to make Zhao Mingyu the crown prince, but because of a series of things at that time, Zhao Wen didn't organize the grand ceremony for the establishment of the crown prince.

After Liu Wenzhong came to seek Zhao Wen's opinion before, Liu Wenzhong spread the news and published it in the newspaper.

From Liu Wenzhong's publication of this news to the appearance of this Taoist priest, it took only a few days.

"What a coincidence, what a coincidence, it can't be this coincidence!" Zhao Wen kept shaking his head, his eyes narrowed, and his brows furrowed.

Not long after, Wang Qi returned to the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, it has been dealt with properly!" Wang Qi replied.

Zhao Wen nodded and looked at Wang Qi, "How did you catch him?"

"Your Majesty, we didn't catch him, he brought him to the door!" Wang Qi replied.

"Did you deliver it yourself?" Zhao Wen frowned, feeling something was wrong.

"Your Majesty, the matter is like this..." Wang Qi told Zhao Wen the details of the matter as he spoke.

Hearing Wang Qi's voice, Zhao Wen felt more and more strange about this matter.

"What's your opinion on this matter?" Zhao Wen looked at Wang Qi.

Wang Qi thought for a while, and said, "Your Majesty, I think this matter is very strange. This Taoist priest will not show up sooner or later, but he will appear at this time.

It was published in the newspapers before, and in a few days, the grand ceremony for the establishment of the reserve will be held. At this juncture, such a person suddenly appeared, and people had to associate him with the ceremony for the establishment of the reserve. "

Zhao Wen also agreed with Wang Qi's opinion very much, Zhao Wen said: "Go on, what else do you think is in it?"

Wang Qi cleared his throat, and his voice was a little louder, "The prince is the foundation of the country, and the current prince is also smart and strong, with the best morals and words among all the princes, and he is also the oldest. The foreign ministers also value the prince very much. , I feel that no matter where the prince is, he is perfect.

In any case, the current crown prince is the most suitable candidate, not one of them.Not only His Majesty is concerned about the matter of establishing the crown prince, but we courtiers are also very concerned about it, after all the crown prince is the foundation of the country.

At this time, the Taoist priest said such words, in the eyes of the minister, it is very likely that he wanted to destroy His Majesty's grand crown ceremony! "

"And then? Who do you think would do this?" Zhao Wen asked.

"Your Majesty, this minister doesn't know..." Wang Qi began to sweat as he spoke, and the cold sweat dripped down his forehead as if he didn't want money.

Wang Qi realized that this matter was a mess.

Wang Qi used to be in charge of the punishment room and criminal laws and decrees, and now he is the commander of the Dianqian Division, so he is more sensitive than ordinary people in this matter.

The appearance of this Taoist priest pointed directly at the Li Chu Grand Ceremony, and its purpose was to destroy the Li Chu Grand Ceremony.

If this kind of thing was put on other emperors, Wang Qi felt that even if the Taoist priest broke the sky, other emperors would not believe it.

But Zhao Wen was different. When Zhao Wen treated Zhao Mingyu, he was not comparable to ordinary emperors. Even in the whole history, there was no second emperor who could treat his son so well.

Zhao Wen's love for Zhao Mingyu is unquestionable, in the eyes of people like Wang Qi, it can even reach the level of doting.

Zhao Wen cultivated and cared for Zhao Mingyu so much. Suddenly a Taoist priest came and said that if Zhao Mingyu was established as the prince, he would not live long. This made Zhao Wen, who cared for Zhao Mingyu, calm down?

Can Zhao Wen not be angry?Can you not be at a loss?Can you feel uneasy?

Although this kind of thing is illusory, but from Wang Qi's point of view, Zhao Wen had to think about it.

Therefore, if the whole process is not good, the words of the Taoist priest will really dispel Zhao Wen's thoughts about holding the grand ceremony of establishing a crown prince.

Moreover, the person chosen by the Taoist priest was very accurate. Everyone in Xuanzhen knew that Liu Wenzhong was the No. 1 civil official, the first civil official to follow Zhao Wen, and the adoptive father of the current queen.

Therefore, Liu Wenzhong's emphasis on Li Chu Da Ceremony, and on the crown prince, has even surpassed that of Zhao Wen to a certain extent.

It is also for this reason that Liu Wenzhong did not discuss this matter with others, but directly asked Liu Wenzhong to pass the matter to Zhao Wen.

This Taoist priest was really extraordinary, and he was sure that Liu Wenzhong would not discuss this matter with other officials, and he would pass this matter to Zhao Wen's ears.

If Liu Wenzhong had discussed it with his officials, it would be impossible for Zhao Wen to hear the matter so quickly.

Even if it reaches Zhao Wen's ears, it is estimated that it will be after the ceremony of establishing the crown prince.

If this Taoist priest spread rumors about this matter among the people, it would take at least ten days to ferment and spread to Zhao Wen's ears.

And through Liu Wenzhong, it is the fastest.After all, Liu Wenzhong is Zhao Mingyu's nominal grandfather, and he cares much more about this kind of matter than others.

"One ring and one ring, the rings are tightly linked, master, master!"

The more Wang Qi thought about it, the more he thought about it, and finally his voice became smaller and smaller.

Cold sweat trickled down Wang Qi's body, and his body kept shaking.

Although Wang Qi is the Duke of the state, Wang Qi doesn't feel that he has been involved in this kind of thing and can survive unscathed.

This kind of thing has been a Shura field since ancient times.

"Your Majesty, the ministers think that the purpose of this Taoist priest is to dispel His Majesty's idea of ​​holding a grand ceremony for the crown prince."

Chapter 782 I hope it's not you

Wang Qi looked a little unnatural, and said to Zhao Wen tremblingly.

Although Wang Qi did not participate in this matter, but now Wang Qi has already guessed the general situation of the matter, so Wang Qi can't help feeling a little unnatural.

Zhao Wen saw Wang Qi's reaction in his eyes, and didn't react at all.

"Okay, Aiqing go down first!" Zhao Wen waved his hand at Wang Qi, telling Wang Qi to go down first.

Wang Qi breathed a sigh of relief, cupped his hands at Zhao Wengong, and hurriedly exited the imperial study.

After exiting the imperial study room, Wang Qi looked at the moon in the sky and panted heavily.

"Who on earth is so courageous and wants to use this method to sabotage the ceremony of establishing the crown prince? I really can't think of it!" Wang Qi shook his head and walked outside.

After Wang Qi left, Zhao Wen said to the attendants in the imperial study: "You all get out, I want to be quiet!"

Chen Donglai saluted Zhao Wen, and led the staff in the imperial study room out of the imperial study room.

Zhao Wen sat alone in the imperial study, the lamp on the table illuminated Zhao Wen's face.

Zhao Wen's face was full of gloom, and Zhao Wen had thought of everything that Wang Qi thought of just now, even more than Wang Qi thought of.

"It's really abnormal that an unidentified Taoist priest suddenly appeared before the ceremony of establishing the crown prince and said these inexplicable words.

The time of appearance is very suspicious, and the identity is also very suspicious.

Although Dianqiansi does not have as many rights as Jinyiwei, it is not very difficult to find someone in Xuanzhen.

However, from the day the Taoist priest appeared until the reward ceremony, nothing was found.If he hadn't come to the door himself, the staff of the Dianqian Division might not have been able to find them in time. Zhao Wen kept thinking about this question in his heart.

The night was getting dark, but Zhao Wen didn't have any intention of going to sleep.

The sound of insects outside the window resounded non-stop, and the moon in the sky shone on the roof, as if a layer of frost had fallen.

"Snapped!"

Zhao Wen slapped the table hard, his face was full of anger.

"Who the hell, who is the black hand behind the scenes!!!" Zhao Wen shouted angrily.

Zhao Wen really couldn't figure out who was behind this incident.

"What this Taoist priest did was really accurate, down to every step. Starting from intercepting Liu Wenzhong, almost every step was in his plan. Who is it!" Zhao Wen kept muttering, His face was full of viciousness.

"This person's purpose must be to mess up the Lichu ceremony. He guessed my thoughts clearly. What good will it do him to disturb the Huang Lichu ceremony?"

"Who will benefit the most by disturbing the Huang Li Chu ceremony? It seems that it will not benefit anyone!"

For a while, Zhao Wen couldn't figure out what the connection was.

Zhao Wen turned off the lamp on the table, walked out of the imperial study, and walked towards the bedroom.

Zhao Wen lowered his head, thinking about these questions in his heart.

When he arrived at the bedroom, Zhao Wen suddenly thought of someone.

"Impossible, it can't be her. Her mind is relatively simple, so it is impossible to have such a plan.

Besides, in Xuan Town, she hardly knew anyone except those who had been in the harem, and it was impossible for her to have such an idea. "

The person Zhao Wen thought of was Hai Lanzhu, because in Zhao Wen's view, if he really exempted from the ceremony of establishing the crown prince, it would be in the greatest interest for her son.

Because, as long as there is no ceremony for the establishment of the crown prince, Hai Lanzhu's son will still have a chance.

However, there is a problem here, that is, Hai Lanzhu hardly knows anyone in Xuanzhen, only those in the harem.

Since Zhao Wen moved into the palace, Hai Lanzhu rarely went out, so from Zhao Wen's point of view, it is impossible for Hai Lanzhu to know people like Taoist priests, and it is impossible to have such thoughts.

"Impossible, since the day Hai Lanzhu gave birth to a child, I have revealed that the child she gave birth to cannot become a prince, and Hai Lanzhu is not a fool, it is impossible for her to not understand everything in it.

Li Xiaoying is the queen, and Mingyu is the eldest son. No matter in terms of etiquette, age, or other aspects, Mingyu is a very suitable heir.

In the outer dynasty, there is no one who does not praise Mingyu.No matter how stupid Hai Lanzhu was, it was impossible for her to be an enemy of all the officials.

And on weekdays, she didn't have such thoughts.Who on earth is it?Who is behind the scenes? "

Zhao Wen stopped at the door of the bedroom. He looked at the door of the bedroom opened by Chen Donglai, but did not enter for a long time.

Zhao Wen kept pacing outside the palace, thinking about these issues in his heart.

Zhao Wen suddenly stopped and looked to the north.

"Could it be them?" Zhao Wen narrowed his eyes.

Zhao Wen walked into the bedroom and lay on the bed, thinking about these things in his heart.

……

Early the next morning, after breakfast, Zhao Wen didn't want to deal with political affairs as usual, but went to the palace where Hai Lanzhu was.

Hai Lanzhu's palace is next to Li Xiaoying's palace. After all, Hai Lanzhu's status in the harem is lower than Li Xiaoying's.

At this time, Hai Lanzhu had just finished eating and was taking a walk in the courtyard of the palace.

Zhao Mingjing and Zhao Mingxuan played with the eunuchs and maids in the palace in the open space of the palace. As for Hai Lanzhu's second child, he can walk at night. With the help of the nanny, he learned to walk in the courtyard of the palace. .

Just as Zhao Wen walked into the courtyard of the palace, Zhao Mingjing, who was playing in the open space, spotted Zhao Wen.

"Daddy!"

Zhao Mingjing stood up and ran towards Zhao Wen with a smile on his face.

Although Zhao Wen likes his eldest son very much, Zhao Wen also likes Zhao Mingjing and Zhao Mingxuan.

Zhao Wen squatted down and hugged Zhao Mingjing into his arms, and Zhao Mingxuan also threw himself into Zhao Wen's arms.

"Daddy, why are you here today?" Zhao Mingjing looked up at Zhao Wen with a small face.

Zhao Wen touched Zhao Mingjing's forehead and said with a smile, "I have some time today, so I came here to have a look!"

As Zhao Wen spoke, he stood up, took Zhao Mingjing with one hand, and Zhao Mingxuan with the other, and walked inside.

Hai Lanzhu, who was walking in the yard, looked at Zhao Wen who was coming, and walked quickly to Zhao Wen.

In the past few years, Hai Lanzhu's personality has also been suppressed a lot. She is now the same as she was when she just married Zhao Wen.

"I've met Your Majesty!" Hai Lanzhu stood in front of Zhao Wen, saluted Zhao Wen respectfully, and stood in front of Zhao Wen respectfully with a blessed body.

In any case, Hai Lanzhu is not a queen. Although Zhao Wen usually does not have so many demands on Hai Lanzhu, it is impossible for Hai Lanzhu to be as easy-going as Li Xiaoying.

"I'm an old couple, what kind of courtesy do you have?" Zhao Wen let go of Zhao Mingjing and Zhao Mingxuan, and helped Hai Lanzhu up.

"How are you doing these days? It's been a while since I came to your place." Zhao Wen took Hai Lanzhu's hand and walked inside.

Hai Lanzhu let Zhao Wen hold her hand, and said as she walked, "It's okay, my concubine has been doing okay recently!"

"I haven't seen your father for a long time, right? How about I give you a few days off and let you go back to the grassland to have a look?! By the way, bring Mingjing with you?" Zhao Wen looked at Hai Lanzhu.

When Hai Lanzhu heard this, she immediately jumped up.

Naturally, Hai Lanzhu's personality has been suppressed a lot, but after hearing the news, Hai Lanzhu still couldn't suppress her inner excitement.

From the time Hai Lanzhu left the grassland until now, she hasn't been back once.

For so many years, Hai Lanzhu has been living in Xuanzhen.

To be honest, after leaving the grassland for such a long time, it is a lie to say that he does not want to go back. Hai Lanzhu even dreams of going back.

After a while, Hai Lanzhu calmed down.

She looked at Zhao Wen with some doubts, "Really? Your Majesty, can the concubine really go back?"

It's not that Hai Lanzhu doesn't believe Zhao Wen, it's that all this happened too suddenly.
