"Looking at me, the princess is very satisfied with him. What if he is not the heir apparent of the Chen family?" Meng Shu joked.
Princess Jiahe was startled when she heard this, looked over there again, and then smiled and said: "As the only princess in the dynasty, I have to choose someone I like as my consort, no matter whether he is Chen Songyu or not, as long as he is not married yet , He has no hidden illness, so what’s the problem if I choose him as my consort?”
Meng Shu smiled when he heard this. With the status of Princess Jiahe, she did have this confidence.
"Then I would like to congratulate the princess first." Meng Shu blinked and said with a smile.
Although it would be a bit impulsive to choose a husband based only on looks, Jiahe is a princess, and even if she is not satisfied after getting married, she can still change her.
Divorce your husband and remarry.
"Zhilan is back. Let me ask her before making a decision." Princess Jiahe said playfully.
"Princess, that young master is the eldest son of Duke Rongguo, the prince-consort that the Queen Mother wants to marry you." Zhilan lowered her voice and reported.
Meng Shu was sitting next to Princess Jiahe, so of course she heard it.
"Princess got what she wanted." Meng Shu said immediately.
Princess Jiahe smiled when she heard this.
She glanced at Chen Songyu subconsciously, and when she saw him looking over, she smiled brightly at him.
She didn't think there was anything wrong, but Chen Songyu blushed, took a sip of tea, and no longer dared to look at Princess Jiahe.
"Didn't you say that he often goes to the battlefield to kill enemies? Why is he so thin-faced?" Princess Jiahe couldn't help but say.
"There was no woman staring at him on the battlefield." Meng Shu couldn't help laughing.
This princess might seem a little bold to others, but Meng Shu didn't care much about these rules. He thought she was really kind and cute.
Princess Jiahe blushed rarely when she heard this and did not continue to stare at Chen Songyu.
She approached Meng Shu and whispered: "The Queen Mother will send someone to ask later, and I will agree."
As a princess, she could choose someone she liked to marry, but others were not so lucky.
Even Meng Shu beside her had been engaged since childhood. If Wei Qingyun's previous scandal hadn't been exposed on the wedding day, even with Meng Shu's status, even if she was dissatisfied with him, she would still have to marry her. .
"Congratulations, princess, on finding a good son-in-law." Meng Shu whispered in her ear.
Princess Jiahe laughed from ear to ear when she heard this.
At this moment, a loud voice sounded: "The Emperor has arrived, the Queen Mother has arrived..."
When everyone looked up, they saw that the emperor came in supporting the queen mother, and they were all shocked.
After all, the emperor rarely attended palace banquets in recent years. When he came, he was always supported.
He actually supported the Queen Mother today and was still walking steadily. Although his face was still pale and sickly, it was much better than the dying appearance before.
"Meet the Emperor, meet the Queen Mother..."
After everyone in the hall was briefly surprised, they quickly stood up and saluted.
King Wei was kneeling on the ground with his fists clenched and his face full of anger.
The queen mother sent a message to him early this morning, saying that the emperor's health had improved. He didn't believe it at the time, and now he was a little irritable.
Seeing that the throne is about to be obtained, the emperor's health suddenly feels better. Does he have to wait another three to five years?
no!
He couldn't wait that long.
As long as he doesn't sit on the dragon throne for a day, he can't feel at ease.
The royal brother must die, and the sooner the better.
"Ping Shen..." After the emperor helped the Queen Mother sit down, he gently raised his hand to signal everyone to get up.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"The emperor's health has improved, which is a blessing to the dynasty. Congratulations to the emperor, congratulations to the emperor. God has favored the emperor so much, and our great Zhou Dynasty will be prosperous forever." Ding Yue, as the chief minister of the cabinet, quickly congratulated loudly.
He concurrently served as the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel and was the head of the civil service.
The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty naturally agreed.
The emperor coughed a few times and said in a weak tone: "In the past few days, my health has indeed been better than in the past, but I don't know whether it is really getting better, or whether it is because time is running out and the light comes back... cough, cough, cough..."
As soon as the emperor finished speaking, several princes and important ministers quickly took the lead and knelt down: "Your Majesty, your Majesty is filled with blessings, and you will be safe and sound."
The emperor waved his hand after hearing this: "Even though my health is better than before, I have already damaged my foundation and cannot continue my descendants. I am ashamed of my ancestors!"
Everyone did not dare to say anything after hearing this.
The Queen Mother, who was sitting next to the emperor, wanted to say something, but finally held back.
"The King of Wei, the King of Liang, and the King of Jin." The emperor's deep voice sounded in the hall.
"Brother Imperial!" The three princes quickly came out and knelt in the center of the hall.
"I will not have any children of my own in this life, so the important task of continuing my heirs will be left to you. If fate favors me and I can live for a few more years, I will adopt one of the heirs from the three of you to my knees. Make him a prince."
The emperor coughed a few more times before saying: "If I don't have much time left, I will choose one of the three of you to be the emperor's younger brother. From today on, you must work harder, so that I can safely entrust this country to the country." In your hands."
"Yes, thank you, brother." King Wei and the other three agreed in unison, but each had their own thoughts in mind.
In the past, King Wei felt that he was the only heir and the throne was definitely his, it was only a matter of time.
Now, the emperor pointed out this matter in front of all the civil and military officials. In addition to him, the old Western Liang King and the old Wu Jin King were all qualified to inherit the throne.
Not only them, but also the sons they gave birth to could still threaten him.
Fortunately, although King Liang is married, he has no heirs yet. King Jin only has Shixi this year and has no wife.
The King of Liang and the King of Jin were also shocked by the two decrees issued by the emperor one after another.
They had never dared to show any ambition before, for fear of being suppressed by the Queen Mother, suppressed by the Emperor, and losing their lives.
With these two decrees from the emperor, everything will be different.
The two brothers can be like the king of Wei and fight for their future in an upright and upright manner.
"The King of Wei has been supervising the troops and horses of the fifth battalion in the suburbs of Beijing for three years. He has gained good experience. From today on, King Liang and King Jin will also serve as the supervisors of the troops and horses of the fifth battalion." The emperor said and looked at King Wei with a smile on his face. : "Third brother, please teach Lao Xi and Lao Wu well. As long as we brothers and sisters in the West are of one mind, why should I, the Great Zhou Dynasty, worry that our country cannot be consolidated forever?"
After hearing this, King Wei was angry and anxious.
The imperial brother not only gave those two losers, Lao Xi and Lao Wu, the same opportunity to compete for the throne with him, but also made them serve as military supervisors of the fifth battalion like him. Isn't this a slap in his face?
That’s all. Military power must not be given to these two losers.
King Wei subconsciously glanced at the Queen Mother, extremely anxious.
Mother, please stop the emperor quickly!
"Emperor, it's getting late. Let's have the banquet first. It won't be too late to discuss other matters slowly in the court another day!" The Queen Mother suppressed the dissatisfaction in her heart and frowned.
This brat had clearly promised her that he would pass the throne to King Wei, but now he has gone back on his word.
What is he trying to do?
Could it be that he already knows his true life experience?
Or...do you know the truth about his poisoning?
