Chapter 1207: Another Plan (Part II)
Wu Hao sneered and agreed: "That's it, idiots do such stupid things." ”
Zhang Xuan frowned and glanced at Wu Hao, his face showed displeasure, Wu Deyou saw this and hurriedly scolded: "Bastard, if you don't talk, no one will say that you are a dumb person, immediately apologize to Lord Zhang." ”
Wu Hao's face was swollen and red, although he was extremely reluctant, but under Lao Tzu's fierce gaze, he still had to say to Zhang Xuan: "The little nephew offended Lord Zhang by saying something for a while, I'm sorry, and I ask Lord Zhang to bear with me." ”
Zhang Xuan said magnanimously: "Uncle Guo's words are serious, it is normal for young people to be outspoken and fast, it is understandable that this official actually does not take it to heart." ”
Wu Hao snorted coldly in his heart, secretly thinking, believe you a ghost, if you really didn't take it to heart, what did you just glance at Ben Shao, hurt Ben Shao to be scolded by his father, old thing, small heart and eyes still don't admit it, I'm phew!
Wu Deyou smiled and arched his hand and said: "Please also ask Brother Bingyong to give me advice, why do you want the queen to come forward to accept He Zhi'er as a concubine?" ”
Zhang Xuan glanced at Wu Deyou's father and son, and said lightly: "With the emperor's favor for Na He Zhi'er, even if the queen doesn't nod, she will be accepted into the palace in the end, what does the prince think?" ”
Wu Deyou's brows suddenly wrinkled, the current emperor's stubbornness is well known, just entered Beijing and ascended the throne, because of etiquette issues almost fell out with the courtiers, in the end it was the Empress Dowager Zhang who came forward to mediate, Yang Tinghe and others made a compromise, and the emperor agreed to enter the city and ascend the throne.
The emperor dared to be tough with Yang Tinghe and other important ministers when he first arrived, and now he is a king who is a man of his word, who else can change his will? Therefore, if the emperor made up his mind to accept He Zhi'er as a concubine, it is estimated that even if the Empress Dowager Jiang came forward in the end, he would not be able to stop it.
"What Brother Bingyong said is very true, with the emperor's temperament, he will definitely take Na He Zhi'er as a concubine in the end." Wu Deyou said unhappily.
Zhang Xuan smiled and said: "So Ma, since you know that you can't stop it, why don't you come and push the boat down the river?" If the queen takes the initiative to let the emperor take He Zhi'er as a concubine, not only to win the emperor's favor, but also to win the favor of the queen mother, and even win a good reputation among the people, then the queen's position will only be more stable, even if there is really nothing to do in the future, the emperor will never be able to set up another after the abolition. ”
Wu Deyou's father and son glanced at each other, and they were silent, although Zhang Zhang's words sounded very reasonable, but they still made people feel a little uncomfortable and unwilling!
A trace of imperceptible contempt flashed in Zhang Xuan's eyes, after all, he was from a small family, his vision was lowered, and he continued: "What does the Guozhang think of the filial piety of the Empress Dowager Zhang among the people? ”
Empress Dowager Zhang of Xiaozong is the empress of Emperor Zhu Youzhang of Hongzhi, that is, the mother of Zhu Houzhao of Wuzong. It is said that Emperor Hongzhi Zhu Youzhu is indeed unique among all the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, he only married one wife of the Empress Dowager Zhang in his life, and then the Empress Dowager Zhang only gave birth to Zhu Houzhao, a single seedling.
As the so-called unfilial piety has three, no queen is greater. As the king of a country, it doesn't matter if you only marry one wife, how can you only give birth to one son, it's not nice to say, what if this son unfortunately dies? Isn't there no successor to the Ming Dynasty?
So the ministers all persuaded Hongzhi to marry more wives and have more children, but Hongzhi just didn't listen, and then he couldn't bear it anymore and planned to take a concubine, but Queen Zhang knew that she used the trick of crying, making trouble and hanging herself, and Hongzhi immediately compromised and dispelled the idea of accepting a concubine.
Because of this out, Queen Zhang has a reputation for jealousy and selfishness, and her reputation among the people is not very good. In order to achieve the purpose of being favored in the harem, Empress Zhang prevented Concubine Hongzhi from spreading out her leaves, and also laid the groundwork for the end of Xiaozong.
Wu Deyou naturally understood what Zhang Xuan meant when he mentioned the Empress Dowager Zhang of Xiaozong at this time, and said in a deep voice: "Empress Dowager Zhang's jealousy is not good in Shilin!" ”
Zhang Xuan took the opportunity to say: "The emperor has been married for six years, and he has no children under his knees, at this time, if the queen takes the initiative to take a concubine for the emperor, the queen mother will definitely be very happy, and the ministers in the court will also praise him, but if the queen prevents the emperor from accepting a concubine, she will inevitably end up with a jealous name. ”
Wu Deyou and Wu Hao's father and son's faces changed, the former let out a sigh of relief, and solemnly arched his hand and said, "Thank you Bingyong for your guidance, I have been taught!" ”
Zhang Xuan smiled and said: "In fact, the prince and uncle don't have to worry too much, the queen is still very young, and it is very likely that she will be pregnant with a dragon in the future, as long as she wins the favor of the queen mother and the emperor this time, as well as a group of ministers, and has a good reputation of virtue and virtue among the people, the queen's position will be as stable as a rock, even if the emperor loves Na He Zhi'er again, he will not move the mind of setting up another after abolishing it, even if he has this thought, the ministers will not support it." ”
After listening to Zhang Xuan's words, the Wu father and son finally calmed down in their hearts, and said happily and convincingly: "Brother Bingyong, I will enter the palace tomorrow to meet the queen." ”
Zhang Xuan nodded, a hint of strangeness flashed in his eyes, the emperor wants to accept He Zhi'er as a concubine, and Xu Jin, as his brother, should also return to Beijing, hand over the military power, and continue to be his grandfather of Anle Country.
It is said that Zhang Zhang's original plan was to take advantage of Xu Jin's Northern Expedition to recover, and then seize the time to consolidate his strength in the court, however, with Xu Jin's good news spread frequently, the more and more victories were fought, the credit was getting bigger and bigger, and the prestige was getting higher and higher, Zhang Xuan began to feel uneasy, and it was not a good thing that the military power had been in Xu Jin's hands.
So, Zhang Xuan had a plan and encouraged Empress Wu to come forward to persuade Jiajing to take He Zhi'er as a concubine, so that Xu Jin, as He Zhi'er's brother, had to return to Beijing. As the so-called eldest brother is like a father, He Zhi'er has no father and no mother, Xu Jin, the elder brother, naturally wants to return to Beijing and Zhang Luo, and then he can recommend Yu Dayou to replace Xu Jin in a clear and honest manner.
After Xu Jin retreated, Daming needed a new general star to take over power and eliminate Xu Jin's growing influence on the army, and Zhang Xuan believed that Yu Dayou was the most suitable candidate in terms of military talent and prestige, the key is that Yu Dayou is different from Xie Erjian, Wang Lin'er, and Qi Jingtong, and the Xu Jin brand on his body is not deep, and he will definitely not obey Xu Jin, and the military power is more reassuring in his hands.
…………
In the room in the West Courtyard of the Xu Mansion in the small area, He Zhi'er was lying on the bed weakly, Li Yanwen was taking her pulse in the Tai Hospital, and Jiajing and Xie Xiaowan were all around, all looking worried.
"Does Miss Zhi'er still have a headache?" Li Yanwen asked in a harmonious voice while taking his pulse.
He Zhi'er pursed her lips and shook her head!
"Dizzy?"
He Zhi'er still shook her head.
"What's wrong with your body?"
He Zhi'er said softly: "It's not uncomfortable, it's just that I feel a little sleepy and want to sleep!" ”
Li Yanwen frowned, took a pen and wrote a prescription on the paper, handed it to Xie Xiaowan and said, "Mrs. Xie, grab a pair of medicines according to this prescription, fry three bowls of water into one bowl, and give it to Miss Zhi'er, and tomorrow the contemptible person will come to Miss Zhi'er for a follow-up." ”
Xie Xiaowan agreed, and hurriedly ordered someone to take the prescription to grab the medicine.
After leaving the room, Jiajing couldn't wait to ask, "Imperial Doctor Li, what's going on with Zhi'er's illness, is it serious?" ”
Li Yanwen said cautiously: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, Miss Zhi'er's pulse is stable, and there should be no major problem, but Miss Zhi'er's head has been seriously injured, and she needs to be cautiously observed for a period of time. ”
Jiajing nodded worriedly and ordered someone to send Li Yanwen out. Xie Xiaowan glanced at Jiajing, whose eyebrows were tightly locked, and comforted: "The emperor doesn't have to worry too much, Zhi'er's spirit is okay, and she should be fine." ”
Jiajing said in annoyance: "It's all my fault for being reckless, if it weren't for me, Sister Zhi'er's head wouldn't have been knocked on the back of her head, alas, I'll go in and see her." With that, he turned and went into the room.
Fei Ruyi and Fei Jixiang glanced at each other, it seems that the emperor is really interested in Zhi'er, and it is a matter of time before he enters the palace, but Zhi'er's head has been injured, not only has her memory been lost, but her mental age has been kept at about ten years old, innocent, and entering the palace is not necessarily a good thing.
In the room, He Zhi'er was looking at the top of the tent in a distraction, and when she found Jiajing coming in, her eyes suddenly became a little flustered, and she subconsciously moved to the bed.
Jiajing sat down on the edge of the bed and reached out to hold He Zhi'er's soft twing, but the latter shrugged his hand back under the quilt as if he had been electrocuted, and his eyes became even more flustered.
Jiajing was stunned for a moment, and said worriedly: "Sister Zhi'er, what's wrong with you?" Why are your hands so cold? ”
"I didn't ...... No, Brother Si Pao, I'm ...... I want to sleep. "He Zhi'er eats authentically.
"Oh...... Then you sleep, and I'll sit here with you. ”
"No need, go back to the palace quickly!" He Zhi'er shook her head like a drum.
Xie Xiaowan also persuaded: "The emperor has a lot of opportunities, but he can't delay, go back to the palace quickly, Zhi'er has us to take care of it." ”
"That'...... I'm gone. ”
He Zhi'er nodded, and Jiajing had no choice but to stand up and say, "Sister Xiaowan, please take care of Zhi'er." ”
Xie Xiaowan smiled and said, "Even if the emperor doesn't give orders, we will take care of Zhi'er." ”
Jiajing turned around and left the room step by step, He Zhi'er looked at his back with a complicated expression, and a gentle look appeared in her eyes.
Fei Ruyi and Fei Jixiang looked at each other in surprise, the latter's heart moved, stepped forward to cover the thin quilt for He Zhi'er, and said lightly: "Zhi'er sleep well, get better quickly, your eldest brother will feel distressed if he sees you like this now." ”
He Zhi'er's eyes were red, and tears were gurgling out!
Xie Xiaowan was shocked and said, "Why are you crying?" ”
"Zhi'er's eldest brother is dead, and I can't see Zhi'er anymore." He Zhi'er sobbed.
The three girls glanced at each other and said in unison, "Do you remember?" ”
He Zhi'er nodded, sniffed and said, "Sister Xiaowan, Sister Ruyi, Sister Jixiang, thank you for taking care of Zhi'er all these years." ”
