Chapter 60: Become King
The emperor felt uncomfortable leaving Zhang Guifei's Chonghua Palace.
Concubine Zhang Guifei and Concubine Shu were both old people who had been with him for many years, and both of them had princes.
In the past few years, since Shu Yan left, his thoughts have not been on the harem. There are not many concubines in the harem, there are only a few sons in total, and he also cares about the next few.
He appointed Jin'er as the crown prince early, just to tell everyone that he had already decided on the crown prince, and there was no need to fight. Jin'er was also tolerant and could accommodate his brothers. He thought he could save the lives of all his sons.
But now,
He knew that it was probably impossible.
The emperor did not return to Chengqian Hall, but turned to the East Palace.
The prince is still lying on the bed to rest, but he can now get up and read a book.
The emperor was very happy when he saw it. The prince wanted to stand up and salute, but the emperor stopped him.
"How are you feeling today?"
"Father, don't worry, my son is much better."
After saying that, the prince asked: "I heard that my father has appointed a crown concubine for me?"
The emperor's expression froze after hearing this, and his eyes flashed slightly: "This is indeed true, Jin'er, although this daughter of the Shu family has divorced and has a daughter, Master Liaokong said that this is your destined marriage, and I give it to you. You will get better if you give me a marriage."
The emperor felt helpless as he spoke, but still advised: "The founding empress of the Wude Holy Empress has also been married. This is not without precedent, not to mention that it involves your life, so I would rather believe it. If in the future you meet a woman who you feel has a similar mind, Just take her into the palace and become your concubine."
"It's not that my father didn't keep his promise, this time it was really out of necessity."
The prince nodded: "I know."
"Father, don't worry, I don't mind confining my daughter and leaving."
Seeing that the prince was so reasonable, the emperor breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
The prince smiled brightly: "I know that my father always thinks about my son."
The prince was somewhat touched.
"Father, these days, I have made you worried."
That night, Shu Yuwan told him that the love between father and son was better than the difference between king and minister. She really...
The emperor thought of Concubine Zhang and Concubine Shu and said, "Don't worry, I will give you an explanation for this matter."
The prince nodded: "It's fine as long as my father makes the decision on this matter."
After telling the prince and the people in the East Palace to take good care of the prince, the emperor got up and left.
Another half month passed.
The prince finally fully recovered.
The emperor dispatched his secret guards and people from the Investigation Department to fully mobilize in the past half month to investigate the mighty general's mansion behind Concubine Zhang, the second prince, Concubine Shu, and the third prince Ji.
As a result, not much evidence was found for murdering the prince, but a lot of evidence was found that the two sons secretly formed a clique for personal gain.
When the emperor knew that his two sons and concubines, who seemed to be fighting for nothing on the surface, were secretly wooing the ministers and gathering power, he suddenly realized in his heart~
How can one be born into a royal family without fighting for it?
At that time, he himself was fighting openly and secretly among his brothers, and even survived life and death in the later period. Why did he expect his sons to stay safe when he became emperor?
No longer wondering whether it was Concubine Zhang or Concubine Shu who instigated the poisoning of Jin'er. Maybe they were both involved, but some were doing it openly and some were secretly adding fuel to the fire.
The next morning at court, the emperor announced,
The second prince was canonized as Prince An and given the title of Shu Commandery.
The three princes were canonized as kings and granted the title of Long County.
Set off in three days to go to the fiefdom. You are not allowed to enter the capital without being summoned.
All the ministers in the court were very surprised.
The old ministers who firmly supported the prince had no objections. The adult princes were granted the title of king and went to the fiefdom. Although it was a bit early, it was conducive to the stability of the capital.
The Second Prince's faction was still in panic due to the prince's poisoning recently. Although they were extremely reluctant to do so, they did not dare to stand up and oppose it.
Only the mighty general stood up: "Your Majesty, the third prince is still young and has not yet been married. Is it too early to go to the fiefdom now?"
"The concubine Shu and the third prince in the palace also had to be separated from their mother and son. I'm afraid they are very reluctant to part with them!"
The third prince himself immediately stood up and said sincerely: "Father, I would like to remain filial to my father, mother, and concubines for a few more years."
The emperor said calmly: "The prince's trip to the fiefdom is conducive to the stability of the court. After you go to Longjun, you will benefit the local people and protect the safety of Dajing. This is the greatest filial piety to me and your mother and concubine."
"As for the marriage, it doesn't matter. Your mother and concubine and I have found a suitable candidate. We can just send him to Long County to marry you."
"But......"
"But what?" The emperor looked at the third prince.
The third prince knelt down and said unhappily: "But I can't bear to leave my father and mother."
The emperor was unmoved: "As a prince, the safety of the country should be your top priority."
"My son has always behaved himself, respected the prince, and never harmed the country!"
After hearing this, the emperor said coldly: "When the prince comes of age, he has gone to fiefdoms. This has happened since ancient times. Why did he come to you? Are you disrespecting the prince and endangering the talents of the country?"
The third prince's expression changed drastically, and he broke into a cold sweat: "I don't dare!"
Seeing this situation, the ministers who originally wanted to speak out gave up and kept silent.
Shu County and Long County are both remote places. It takes two or three months to go slowly by carriage, and nearly half a year to go back and forth. The emperor is determined to clear away potential dangers for the prince. It seems that this time The prince was poisoned, leaving a shadow on the emperor.
The hope of the second and third princes to inherit the throne is even slimmer.
"In that case, the matter is settled."
The emperor then said to the two princes: "Go back and make preparations. Let's set off in three days."
...
The prince had not yet gone to court, but the news quickly reached the prince's ears.
The prince sighed. His father was not only trying to eliminate danger for him, but he was also trying to save the lives of his two younger brothers.
However, as long as the brothers are still there, the forces behind them will not stop.
Since it is the father's wish, as long as the brothers don't jump out and jump around, he will not kill them all!
When Concubine Zhang heard the news, her expression was cold, but she did not resist. She stayed away from Beijing and went to Shu County. The sky is high and the emperor is far away, which may be a good thing for Ming'er.
The Emperor is in good health and has many years to prepare.
Concubine Shu was not so calm. After getting the news, she went to find the emperor outside Chengqian Hall.
The emperor frowned and said to Eunuch Hong, "Let Concubine Shu come in."
Concubine Shu entered the door and gave a hasty salute, then cried: "Your Majesty, Yi'er is only sixteen years old, why do you want him to go to the fiefdom now? When Yi'er leaves, when and what month will I be able to see him? For such a son, how can you be so cruel?"
The emperor's already frowning eyebrows were now even more frowning.
"Concubine Shu wants to resist the decree?"
Concubine Shu's unfinished words were suddenly stuck in her throat.
He sobbed and said, "Your Majesty?"
The emperor said coldly: "The third child is fine, why do you have to cry! The person who almost died was the prince!"
