The palace was very quiet near noon, but not deserted at all. There were palace servants on duty everywhere near Kunning Palace.
Queen Zhang sat in front of a dressing table in Kunning Palace, gently turned her neck and looked at her face in the bronze mirror left and right.She felt that she had lost weight in a few days.
Worry filled her heart.She regretted that she would never be able to do the wrong things and say the wrong things.
Is the emperor already suspicious of her? How will he deal with her?Those who support British government, value Zhang Fu, and then find a way to depose her as the queen?!
Thinking of this, Zhang felt very angry!
She is the first wife of the emperor, and has been dedicated to helping him and giving birth to children for many years.
Why did years of kindness and family affection become like this?
Half a lifetime of companionship, can’t I compare to a little girl who has just met for a few months?
At this moment, a carefully vindicated voice from behind him: Empress, the emperor has come to Kunning Palace.
Zhang was a little surprised and hurriedly tidied up his clothes and headdresses in front of the bronze mirror and stood up.
She soon realized why the emperor often came to Kunning Palace during noon... Because in this way, the emperor would not have to worry about whether to stay in Kunning Palace.
She remembered something that a palace maid secretly told me, which was what the emperor said in Concubine Zhang’s palace.
The emperor talked to Concubine Zhang about his feelings about sleeping in Kunning Palace: For example, when it is time to eat, I am not hungry and eat tasteless food, so I still ate the meal because it is time to eat, and it is time to eat.
Zhang thought to himself: Men are all fond of the new and have no conscience!
Zhang walked out of the bedroom and saw that Zhu Gaochi had already come in.After she bowed gently, she approached him affectionately, and held Zhu Gaochi and said softly: Today, the emperor came back earlier.
Zhu Gaochi said: There are so many things in the court, no matter how much I do, I can't be busy, and I have to let the ministers do it.It's no different for me to stay in front for a while and stay for a while.
He sat down heavily on the big and soft chair above, exhaled comfortably and said: By the way, Gao Xianning, who had returned to the Hanlin Academy, wrote a letter to advise me to establish the prince as soon as possible.Today, a minister mentioned that I think this matter should be done.
After hearing this, Zhang was shocked. On his fair face, his eyes with single eyelids and small eyes flashed and changed.
Zhu Gaochi looked at her and continued: My own son is the eldest son, and sooner or later he will be the crown prince. It is better to be established earlier than to drag him down.
Zhang was both happy and worried, thinking that this was not a trap?
She spoke cautiously: Now the war ahead is important, the emperor does not need to rush for a moment.Zhanji is only ten years old this year and is still young. The emperor can wait for him to talk about it later.
This is also something I worry about. Zhanji and Zhanji are still young and cannot help me.Zhu Gaochi sighed and said, "The current chaos is the most sincere thing about his family."
There is an attitude in this sentence, the emperor is showing kindness.
When he suddenly talked about this, Zhang quickly interpreted his meaning in his mind: To make Zhanji the crown prince should be a compromise for the emperor; the emperor mentioned Zhanji's young age, which was another reminder, as if reminding Zhang that his young son Zhu Zhanji needed his protection.
Therefore, the wisest way to fight within the royal family is to reconcile, at least temporarily.This is good for everyone.
Zhu Gaochi's voice said again: When he was in the Yàn Palace, Gao Xu and us were a family.Until now, only me and the queen, Zhanji and Zhanya are the family, and I think it's a bit sad.
After hearing this, Zhang immediately felt sad with the emperor. She wiped her tears and choked and said: I was born in a wealthy and noble family. Now I am the queen and have nothing to ask for.May the world be peaceful and the family be harmonious.I am a woman who should have taken care of her husband and children, and I just hope that the emperor will quell the rebellion as soon as possible and make the Ming Dynasty safe and prosperous.
Zhu Gaochi smiled on his fat face, and he nodded and said: "The family doesn't speak two families, I'm very pleased that the queen can think so."
Zhang immediately responded with a gentle response. She turned sideways and held Zhu Gaochi's hand: Our family has encountered so many difficulties before, and they have survived them. This time Gao Xu rebelled, and he dealt with us with resentment; the emperor does not have to worry too much, the rebellion will definitely be quelled, and there is no hurdle that cannot be overcome!
Zhu Gaochi pondered: The queen is still aware of the general idea.
But there is no need to praise me. I am the first wife and closest person of the emperor. How can I not think about the emperor?The Lord must understand my heart. If anyone may betray you, I will never.Zhang said softly.
Zhu Gaochi nodded and said: I know.When the ministers talk about this matter again, I discussed with the ministers and set up a manual to make Zhanji the crown prince.
...In the afternoon of that day, Xu Huizu finally received the emperor's summons at the East Warm Pavilion of Ganqing Palace.This is the first time Xu Huizu has seen the emperor here since his defeat in the Southwest.
Xu Huizu walked into the partition, knelt directly and said, "I am guilty, please give me a punishment."
Zhu Gaochi asked: What crime did Duke Wei have committed?
Xu Huizu said: The Jiangyin Marquis Wu Gao was lazy and missed the opportunity to fight, which was the fault of his ministers.
Zhu Gaochi glanced at him and sighed: Duke Wei was just recommending him, but I was the one who sealed him.I don’t blame my uncle anymore, I’ll just let it go.
Xu Huizu thanked her and got up from the floor tiles. Her head seemed to poke at the roof. Xu Huizu, who stood tall, was very burly!
He frowned and said: After the fall of Guizhou City, the rebel king thought that the Marquis of Jiangyin was anxious and wanted to ambush it; but the Marquis of Jiangyin realized his plan and avoided great defeat.Marquis of Jiangyin, Wu Gao, has always been safe in using troops. I recommend him to rescue Guizhou, but use the wrong place...
I also understood the key to this battle, that is, Wu Gaojun was slacking off the opportunity to fight.Zhu Gaochi said, at first I blamed Gu Cheng for having a strange intention, but if Wu Gao marched to Guizhou City and Guizhou City without losing it, why would there be any future happening?Therefore, the fault of the fall of Guizhou City is not Gu Yong, but Guo Ming.
Xu Huizu said in a deep voice: Please do not believe it by all.The Zhenyuan Hou’s military ration was burned, not necessarily because he did it intentionally, but he was said to be precise and misleading the holy listen.
Zhu Gaochi didn't say anything.
He was silent for a while before speaking: I heard that Gao Xu was on the battlefield in Guizhou in person.If it weren't for Wu Gao at that time, but if another general was changed, he might not have been Gao Xu's opponent.I know that my uncle doesn’t like Gao Xu, and Gao Xu also hates him, but we cannot refuse to admit that Gao Xu is very good at fighting!
cunning.Xu Huizu still said stubbornly, Wu Gao was deceived by Gao Xu!Otherwise, those who are good at fighting cannot capture the important town of Guizhou under 100,000 reinforcements.
Zhu Gaochi was unwilling to argue with Xu Huizu about this matter, and he didn't have to let others admit that his second brother was powerful. He just said what he said casually.
Zhu Gaochi asked: How to deal with Gao Xu next time? Are you thinking about it?
Xu Huizu said: I think, don’t think about how to attack the southwest for the time being, Gao Xu will take the initiative to attack!
Zhu Gaochi moved his seat a little, and his uncle decided?Where will Gao Xu attack?
Xu Huizu said in a deep voice: Huguang.
Zhu Gaochi immediately turned around and looked up at the picture on the wall.He had never been to many places in his life, and he stared at the picture, and could only try his best to imagine the appearance of the Ming Dynasty.
After a long time, Zhu Gaochi said without looking back: The official army has heavy troops in Huguang Village. Why didn’t Gao Xu take advantage of the victory to capture Guangxi?
Xu Huizu's voice said: Today's world should be a peaceful and prosperous era, not the last chaotic era when the world is in a row.Therefore, Gao Xu did not need to be greedy for the amount of territory and adopted the strategy of gradually eroding the country. What he wanted was the Ming Dynasty!If the rebels go to Guangxi and march into the capital, the road is too far, and the war will be delayed for a long time.With my years of understanding of Gao Xu, he is very likely to want to fight in Huguang, hoping to decide the situation with a major battle.
Zhu Gaochi's face was pale and his expression was solemn.
After a while of silence, he moved his eyes away from the map and turned to look at Xu Huizu: If the uncle of the scholar said again, how likely is the Ming Dynasty King's chance of winning in Huguang?
As long as the court uses the right person, at least 90% chance of winning!Xu Huizu answered without hesitation.
Zhu Gaochi's head raised and his pupils contracted slightly: Since that's the case, why did Gao Xu ask for a fight?
Xu Huizu said: Gao Xu is that kind of person.The rebels entered Huguang and were in an extremely dangerous situation; but if they succeed, they would benefit greatly.It is very consistent with Gao Xu's consistent actions.
Xu Huizu paused for a moment, clasped his fists and said: The court lost the war in the southwest, but the main elite were unscathed.This battle can only be regarded as self-protection and avoiding a catastrophe!But there was no result in the battle.Gao Xu could not destroy the elite soldiers of the imperial court and his personal guards in one day, and he would be unable to get rid of the passive situation of being repeatedly encircled and suppressed!The rebels entered Huguang and looked for opportunities to deal with the elites of the court. This was Gao Xu's only chance to turn his situation around.
While listening, Zhu Gaochi felt that Xu Huizu's words were very reasonable!Zhu Gaochi couldn't ride a horse and went on the battle himself, but he was born in the Yàn Palace, surrounded by military generals, and he knew more about fighting.
The second brother Gao Xu is indeed often risky and bold. In the previous battle in the Southwest, Gao Xu also sought victory in danger.After Xu Huizu said this, Zhu Gaochi felt more and more that Gao Xu might take big risks!
He whispered: There are many soldiers in the Jingnan Army of the Jingnan Army that year, and Gao Xu is quite prestigious in the hearts of the Jingnan Army soldiers.
Xu Huizu said coldly: Master, the families of the soldiers in the Beijing camp are all in Zhili.During the 'Jingnan Battle', Gao Xu led a maximum of more than 10,000 troops, and the few soldiers who had fought wars with him and had real friendship were the few.Gao Xu has reputation in the army, but will the brothers abandon their family and career for a little reputation and ignore their lives?What's more, the court has a great chance of winning now, and the world is real.
After hearing this, Zhu Gaochi breathed a sigh of relief and his eyes trembled. He dared to come, wouldn't I dare to welcome him?
Xu Huizu worshipped: The wise and wise man!
Queen Zhang sat in front of a dressing table in Kunning Palace, gently turned her neck and looked at her face in the bronze mirror left and right.She felt that she had lost weight in a few days.
