Ever since he had the idea of ​​imitating Mrs. Huayang, Yuan Chun secretly investigated the new prince's preferences, trying to find an opportunity to test him out.

It's just that she inquired a lot about the prince's temper, but she became annoyed again: the prince has a good face, although he doesn't talk much, he is just right, and when he talks to people, everyone praises him for being amiable and approachable.After entering the palace for a few days, even the most temperamental concubine Zhou Gui was full of praise when she mentioned him.Yuan Chun heard from the maid who was installed in her palace that one time Concubine Zhou accidentally slipped her tongue, and hearing that leaked words, she actually had the same thoughts as Yuan Chun.

Although the two are both noble concubines, their status in the emperor's heart is quite different.If Concubine Zhou also wants to join forces with the new prince, she has no chance of winning at all.Yuan Chun originally wanted to inquire about more news, and then act after everything was planned properly, but he couldn't hold back when he got the news.Wealth and wealth are sought in the heart, and sometimes you will regret it for the rest of your life if you miss it for a while.Gritting his teeth, he went directly to the prince.

After using excuses to approach him a few times, Yuan Chun looked at the new prince's personality and felt that it was three or four points feasible.So she took advantage of a certain palace banquet, left the banquet in private, and half-confided her thoughts to the prince.

She originally thought that the prince might decline with excuses, and at worst would delay for a few days, so she could think about it.But he didn't want to, after hearing her words that she felt like old friends at first sight with him, treated him like her own son, and was willing to support him in the future, the new prince was only taken aback for a moment, and nodded on the spot: "Your Majesty, what do you mean?" It fits my son's wishes very well. To be honest, my son has long admired your mother's kindness and gentleness, and I wish to have a mother like you. From now on, my son will respect you as his own mother."

What he said made Yuan Chun smile.Although it was a little strange why he agreed so happily, but then he thought that the new prince didn't know his background, grew up in the common people since he was a child, was blinded by wealth when he first entered the deep palace, and believed in the benefits he promised, which is also unknown.Sui felt at ease, and boasted to him about his bright future, until Baoqin repeatedly reminded him that the delay was too long, fearing that everyone would be suspicious, Fang reluctantly went back to the table.

The important event was set, Yuan Chun was so happy that he couldn't help but forget himself and ate a few more glasses.When I left the banquet, I was overwhelmed with alcohol, so I rested under the pavilion first, and asked Gong'e to go back to the hall to carry a soft felt and a sedan chair to pick me up.

With drunken eyes, seeing the new prince walking behind the emperor in the direction of the study, Yuan Chun became even happier: the emperor summoned the new prince frequently, obviously he was extremely satisfied with him.In addition, the emperor is very old, even if the old tree blooms and has offspring, he is still young and has no temperament.In the future, the Ninth Five-Year Supreme will definitely fall on the new prince!I have to hurry up and call my mother into the palace, let her send a message to my father, and propose the establishment of a crown prince at the court meeting as soon as possible.Once the Jia family has this merit of being a dragon, they will surely be extremely prominent in the future, and they will be extremely famous!

Thinking of the glory in the future, Yuan Chun couldn't help giggling, with the alcohol dizziness on his face, he looked indistinctly drunk.

She was drunk, but she didn't realize that the new prince shrugged his shoulders and followed the emperor with his head lowered like a slave. The emperor was used to it, and the two of them were not as filial as their former father.

That night, Yuan Chun impatiently sent someone to deliver a message to Mrs. Wang.By the afternoon of the next day, Mrs. Wang's hand in Yuan Chun's secret letter had been presented to Jia Zheng's desk.After reading the secret letter, Jia Zheng was so excited that he was on the verge of collapsing for a moment, which made the boy jump, thinking that the master had some new illness, and hurriedly said that he would invite a doctor.

After kicking out the boy who was not helping Tim Luan, Jia Zheng closed the door and strode around the room a few times excitedly.I originally wanted to send a letter to a few colleagues who were close and close friends in the past, and asked them to discuss the matter of making a statement and establishing a reserve.

But as soon as he picked up the pen, he put it down again.Thinking that this matter is almost a certainty, pinching the snail shell with three fingers is extremely secure, so why bother to give others the credit and share the credit for nothing?It's better to just let yourself speak, and when the new emperor ascends the throne in the future, he will only remember his first contribution.

After making up his mind, he immediately found a good fortune teller to look up the almanac.It was found to be an auspicious day five days later. As long as you pray sincerely, you will be rewarded. Jia Zheng was overjoyed and told the boy: "From today on, I will stay in the study and see no outsiders. I will fast, bathe and burn incense every day." pray."

The matter was so important that Jia Zheng didn't mention the reason to anyone, which aroused many speculations.Some said that he thought that Baoyu was not motivated and that Jia Huan would not be able to get on the table, and wanted to ask for another son; some said that because Yuanchun had recently been promoted to a noble concubine, too many people came to seek connections, and he wanted to find an excuse to hide; the most bizarre thing is that Well, Yuan Chun's ascension to the throne was because he found someone to do a ritual, and now that it has been fulfilled, naturally he has to fulfill his wish.

Jia Zheng knew nothing about all kinds of rumors.He only quit meat and sex, and waited anxiously for the auspicious day to come.After finally waiting for the auspicious day, I got up one more time earlier than usual, and waited outside the Golden Luan Hall before dawn.

Starting early in the morning, he felt both excited and apprehensive when touching the notebooks that he had painstakingly written.After the important matters were reported by several important officials, and the emperor asked if there were any memorials as usual, Jia Zheng took a deep breath and went out to salute: "I report to Your Majesty, the minister has this memorial. Since the emperor's career is the foundation of the country, According to the practice of the past dynasties, Your Majesty should establish a crown prince to fix the hearts of the world. It is the great fortune of this dynasty to help the prince return to the palace today. I implore your majesty to follow the ancestral rules and appoint the prince as the crown prince."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone immediately looked sideways, and some people in the hall whispered to each other.

Some thought of this, but did not move as quickly as Jia Zheng, and they couldn't help being envious; some were scheming, and decided to stay on the sidelines for a while, because they were watching the emperor's reaction; different.

It was rare to become the focus of attention, but Jia Zheng was not half-satisfied, and even the previous excitement was slowly fading away: the emperor did not express his approval as he imagined, but his face was expressionless and his eyes wandered, as if he was Observe the expressions of the courtiers.

Seeing this, Jia Zheng couldn't help beating his heart.But the matter has come to this point, there is no way to retreat, so I have to bite the bullet and continue to ask for the performance.Just said a "little minister", but was interrupted by King Beijing: "Your Majesty, I also have important matters to report, and it is related to this newly established prince."

Jia Zheng thought that King Beijing wanted to steal credit, so he couldn't help glaring at him.Unexpectedly, the king of Beijing Jing surprised everyone when he opened his mouth: "My minister thinks that the identity of the prince is still in doubt, so it is not appropriate to deliver the Jiangshan artifact prematurely."

"What did you say?" The emperor's expression changed slightly.

King Beijing Jing didn't know that the emperor hated him for being troublesome, so he thought he was encouraging him to continue speaking, so he calmly told the evidence he found recently: "There is a family in Weichen's mansion, which is exactly where the prince lives. He was born in the county seat. When His Majesty recognized the prince, he happened to go home to visit relatives. After hearing about this strange event, he even said it was impossible. Because of the special situation of the place, there were only four families with major surnames in the whole city, and no one with a foreign surname lived there. And the name used by the prince in the past is not one of these four surnames."

Hearing this, everyone was startled and began to discuss in whispers.The concept of clan in the north is very strong, and some villages even have only one surname.There are mostly southern officials in the court, but there are also a few northern officials, so they firmly believe in King Beijing's words.

But it seems unlikely that the emperor would recognize his own flesh and blood.Soon, an official asked: "My lord, perhaps a foreign surname has moved. Although it is very rare, it cannot be said that there is no such thing."

King Beijing was waiting for this to happen, and hurriedly said: "After hearing about this, this king has sent someone to check the city's household registration documents, and in the county annals for decades, the surnames of the three households who moved here also do not match the prince's. And in recent years, the country has been peaceful and the people are safe, and the weather has been smooth, and there has been no such thing as people leaving their homes and going to other places.”

After all, he handed over the documents that he had sorted out earlier to the prime minister.This information was organized very concisely, and below it was the seal of the city's county government and the household registration office. One look at it and you can tell that what King Beijing said is true.

Seeing the information circulated by all the officials, the emperor's face became more and more ugly, and at the same time, he was annoyed that his subordinates were not doing well: he didn't make enough preparations before fabricating his life experience, but he chose such a place to be his hometown, and Shui Rong easily found the flaw!

The king of Beijing Jing looks dignified on the surface, but in fact he is very proud of himself: he thought that he was almost at the end of the mountain, but he didn't expect that it turned out to be another village.The people I sent to that city discovered this big question without much effort.With this evidence, it is enough to prove that the new prince is pretending to be someone with intentions, and when he is put in prison, the crown prince will still fall on his own head.

He just thought it was luck, and the heavens were on his side, so he found the evidence without any effort, and he didn't know that someone with a heart led his men to find it.He even prepared a speech in his stomach, preparing to hypocritically comfort the emperor, saying that he missed his flesh and blood so much that he was heard by the villain Meng Saisheng.Earn another reputation for being filial and considerate for yourself.

Unexpectedly, the boots moved a little, and the emperor said: "It is related to the royal family, and this matter will be investigated by Mr. Jin. Be sure to investigate thoroughly, and let me find out the truth!"

Hearing this, King Beijing's face froze immediately, and he could hardly maintain the hypocritical regret: Who knows, Xiao Chunzi is the emperor's confidant in recent years.This matter fell into his hands, and the emperor had the final say on what to do.It must be embarrassing for the emperor to misidentify his own flesh and blood, maybe he would find an excuse to keep the fake prince alive, instead blaming himself for the crime of misreporting.

I still want to use this case to completely bring down that fake prince, how can I let this happen?

"Your Majesty, this matter needs to be investigated. Eunuch Jin has lived in Da Nei for a long time, so I'm afraid he is not very familiar with the local conditions, and his humble minister is not talented. I would like to share your majesty's worries." King Beijing hurriedly explained.

The emperor gave him a sideways look: "Just find someone who is familiar with the situation. Or do you know everything, and even the people around me can't compare to you?"

These words were a bit cruel, coupled with the seemingly absent hatred in his eyes, the King of Beijing became more and more sure that the emperor must be annoyed that he had cut his face.But the success or failure of a lifetime depends on one action, and it doesn't take care of this much.

Gritting her teeth, she was about to continue recovering when she heard the small yellow gate at the door sharply proclaiming: "The eldest prince sees you!"

Although the new prince has no title yet, he is nominally the eldest son of the emperor. Everyone in the Forbidden City calls him the eldest prince in person, and only calls him the new prince in private.

Before the emperor gave a signal, he hurried in, and knelt down under the steps of His Majesty Danchi with a plop: "Father, I heard that someone slandered my son's bloodline and doubted it. In order to quell the rumors, my son came here to make a statement!"
