Concubine Gaomen(71)

Keeping the mourning secret is no small matter!

Several people looked at Mr. Gan and said nothing. They all began to think about it in their hearts.

As the saying goes, a country cannot live without a king for a day. The secret of not mourning actually means that the country will be without a king for an unknown period of time. But the emperor is the sky above his head. Without this layer of heaven, it can be

What should we do? Who decides on the major issues in this world?

Mrs. Gan saw the doubts on several people's faces and said softly: "Everyone, please sit down first. Don't panic. Listen to me."

Several people took a look and found that this Concubine Chen was really calm. Even if the sky was falling, she could still be so calm. Could it be that several grown men were not as good as one woman? So, no matter what was going on in her heart

As I thought, everyone was sitting down now.

Gan continued: "His Majesty passed away suddenly without leaving any legacy. How should we inherit the throne? There must be an explanation. This matter is the first major event today, and we must have a charter."

This is not what the adults are weighing in their minds right now.

Marquis Jing'an looked at Gan and asked, "What do you mean by your empress?"

Mrs. Gan glanced at where the Queen was sitting and saw her lowering her head and saying nothing, as if she wasn't paying attention to anything. She turned around with a bit of bitterness on her face: "Ordinarily, this

It is up to the Queen to make the decision. But as you all have seen, the Queen... is afraid that it is not possible yet. Therefore, I can only go above and beyond and say a few words reluctantly. You all just heard what the Emperor said before his death.

Alright."

Everyone frowned, and then they remembered that the last thing the emperor said was: "The prince... the prince... useless..."

But this is only half of it, how should we understand it?

I want to say, ‘The prince is useless’.

I still want to say, 'The prince cannot be deposed.'

In fact, judging from the emperor's appearance at that time, the emperor's intention should be to depose the prince.

But now the situation is different. If the emperor is alive, the deposed prince will be deposed. But the emperor is dead, and if the prince is deposed, it will be really chaotic. What do people in the world think? Everyone sitting here has become a traitor and traitor with evil intentions.

Already.

These people were worried, but they didn't know what Gan meant. Logically speaking, supporting the young prince would be beneficial to both Gan and Princess Yunyin. The little emperor was in their hands, hoping to grow up smoothly until he could rule

, it would take more than ten years. In these ten years, how could Princess Yunyin give birth to her own child?

They all thought so at this time. They thought that although Gan was the one who protected the crown prince, at this time, he should use His Majesty's last words as an excuse to successfully depose the crown prince. It was just right to keep the funeral secret.

You can take the Emperor's hand and accomplish this, it's just right!

However, Mrs. Gan opened her mouth and said: "Your Majesty's intention is that the Crown Prince cannot be deposed. Your Majesty is a wise man and the country's chief minister, how could you not understand this truth?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned. This was really unexpected.

Gan just lowered his eyelids, not looking at everyone's expressions, and continued: "After canonizing the queen's father as Duke Cheng'en, the decree can be issued. What do you think?"

The queen sat aside, with her head lowered and a trace of confusion and astonishment flashing through her eyes.

Several adults looked at each other. Since the emperor ascended the throne, he has conferred many titles, but he has not conferred titles on the queen's natal family. This in itself can explain the emperor's attitude towards the queen and the Li family. But now Gan's behavior

, On the one hand, this matter is used to send a friendly message to the prince. On the other hand, it is also to prevent others from making unreasonable speculations. This is to tell everyone that even if the emperor is ill, he is not confused. This is just the time for filial piety.

One year, it is not too late to canonize the queen's natal family.

The queen's eyes were somewhat clear at this time. Gan Quan had blocked her mouth by doing this. Even if his 'illness' was cured, how could he still stand up and not deal with her? If this was the case,

So how should those of you here view yourself? Isn’t this ungrateful! Even though she is so ill, people still spare no effort to protect her son and support her family. If you say anything bad about her, in the eyes of others, this

These are not things done by human beings. It seems that it is better for me to stop being 'good'. Only by remaining crazy can Gan be able to exercise the queen's power on her behalf. This should be Gan Quan's plan. Don't look at the fact that the queen's power was not always available in the past.

The previous dynasty was more important, but at this time, the queen has the most say.

Prince Yu nodded: "What your Majesty said...makes sense. Do as your Majesty wishes."

He is Zongzheng, and his words still carry weight when it comes to the inheritance of the throne.

Mrs. Gan looked at Prince Yu and nodded: "The old prince has spoken, so it's settled. I also happen to have something to mention to the prince."

Prince Yu frowned and touched his beard, "My queen, please speak. I listen."

Gan glanced at several clan princes and then said: "As the saying goes, a single tree cannot make a forest. Now, the only male under the emperor's knees is the prince." They are adopted. "They all say that father and son go into battle.

Soldiers, brothers who fight tigers. The prince lacks a few close people to help him. What I mean is that you choose some clever children in the clan who are over eight years old and under fifteen years old. Let’s

I will reopen the study room. Your Majesty once had this intention and mentioned it to me more than once. He wanted to make the palace more lively. Now, this matter can be done."

Prince Yu touched his beard with his hand, hissed, and accidentally pulled off two strands of his beard.

Guo Changhe looked at the faces of several princes and understood Concubine Chen's plan in his heart. He couldn't help but say that this method was really clever. The prince was out of the palace, what if something happened? If you are not afraid of ten thousand, you are afraid of this.

In case. If something happens to the prince, then doesn’t the throne belong to Brother Yuan? The imperial concubine is definitely not willing. She chose so many children to prepare for the eventuality in the future. At that time, the choice can be

There are more. With more choices, her position can be more stable. Everyone looks at her face, rather than her living next to Brother Yuan. More importantly, she used this move to not only declare the emperor's well-being in a high-profile manner.

The news diverted everyone's attention. It also appeased the clan. I'm afraid that these princes will be very busy after returning today. Originally, as a concubine, it was inappropriate for Concubine Chen to speak for the empress.

.If the princes of the clan have something to say, I'm afraid Concubine Chen will be in a lot of trouble. But now, like the carrot hanging in front of the donkey, it has completely hung up the clan. Are these people thinking in their hearts?

Well, what if our children are lucky? Even if the prince gets back and the children enter the palace, there is no harm in it. After all, with their status, their relationship with the emperor is relatively far away. Let the children stay with the prince

Under the eyes of the emperor, this can be regarded as a close minister. This is definitely a good thing! Concubine Chen said that the emperor had this intention for a long time, but no one heard the emperor mention it. So these people definitely thought that these were the benefits given to them by Concubine Chen.

After they had gained such great benefits, how could they still point their fingers at Concubine Chen? He couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this woman was really amazing. He couldn't help but be curious at this time and appease the clan, so what should Gan do to these courtiers?

How to arrange it?

Gan didn't speak in a hurry, but looked at the faces of these princes one by one, "What? Don't you think it's appropriate?"

How could it be inappropriate? I don’t even know how many lifetimes it took to cultivate this destiny.

Prince Yu nodded: "Since it is His Majesty's wish, then we should do it according to His Majesty's wish."

He really knows how to talk. He immediately put what Gan said on Emperor Yongkang's body. This was a nail in the coffin and couldn't be changed.

Jin Chengan frowned. He was a little unsure about Concubine Chen. Logically speaking, his and her interests were consistent. Why did he choose someone else from the clan now? His fourth child was Concubine Chen's son-in-law.

.

Thinking this, the look in Concubine Chen's eyes was a little strange.

Mrs. Gan was keenly aware of Jin Chengan's gaze. She raised her head and looked at Jin Chengan with a sharp look: "Dong Jin!" She called out, her voice a little cold.

Everyone looked towards Jin Chengan. Although he was still a member of the clan, he suddenly seemed isolated.

Guo Changhe thought to himself: It turns out that Concubine Chen also has another purpose of appeasing and winning over the clan, which is to isolate Jin Chengan.

Jin Chengan was acting all kinds of things just now. He really did a lot to make the emperor so angry. If he really wasn't punished, it would be unjustifiable. Moreover, he is Brother Yuan's biological grandfather, so the clan must be happy to see him.

Deflated.

Concubine Chen pursed her lips and said, "Rumors are spreading all over the capital now, and His Majesty is worried about it day and night. You are His Majesty's closest confidant, and you have to handle matters in the capital. What I mean is that you first command the imperial guards.

I will step down from my post and take up the post of the Military and Horse Division of the Five Cities. I will take good care of the public security in the capital!"

Marquis Jing'an's eyes suddenly lit up.

High! This move is really high!

The prince is not in the palace. There is only the so-called heir Yuan brother in the palace, and this child is Jin Chengan's grandson. Under such circumstances, it is inappropriate for him to be stationed in the palace. If he is selfish, in order to support his own family

What should I do if my grandson prevents the prince from returning to the palace? He is guarding the palace gate, which is very likely to happen. What if he is more ruthless and just kills the returning prince quietly? It is the clan who sent the child away

Entering the palace, I guess I feel uneasy. Entering means snatching Brother Yuan's opportunity. Can Jin Chengan allow such a thing to happen? What if the child has an accident in the palace? This is not impossible.

.Therefore, Jin Chengan can no longer serve as the commander of the Forbidden Army.

But it would not be appropriate to cut this person's official position directly. Because the current premise is that in everyone's eyes, the emperor is still alive. So why would the emperor take action against his own confidants? There must be a reason.

Okay. Then, how to place Jin Chengan? Commander of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division, this is a good position. The capital is in chaos right now, and the emperor asked his confidants to come forward to stabilize the people of the capital. This is completely an order in the face of danger. No one can do more.

Think about it. Besides, the commander of the Forbidden Army and the commander of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division have the same official position. At least, that is how it seems to outsiders. But in fact, Concubine Chen demoted Jin Chengan, which was a sign of his joining forces with Concubine Li.

The hand of a chastisement.

Jin Chengan sat on the chair and was speechless for a long time. But Gan did not give him a chance to speak, and said directly: "As for the candidate for the commander of the Forbidden Army, what do you think of Lin Changgen?"

ah?

ah!

Who didn't know that Lin Changgen and Gan were once husband and wife? But no one expected that Concubine Chen would sneak this man out so calmly.

Is it inappropriate? It doesn’t seem to be the case. But why do you think it’s so inappropriate?

Gan was very magnanimous and said bluntly: "Your Majesty also has great trust in Lin Changgen."

Yes! If you don’t trust me, you can’t entrust women and children to his care.

"I know that everyone is worried about the gossip and rumors." Mr. Gan shook his head, "But this is His Majesty's wish after all."

Why did you forget? Isn’t His Majesty still ‘alive’ now? Then His Majesty issued a decree to give Lin Changgen this position, who can say anything?

People outside wouldn't say anything, but inside they just felt awkward. In their eyes, this was a widow who had just died and her ex-husband came to visit her. Is there anything fishy?

Mrs. Gan said calmly: "If I had something wrong in my heart, I would not take the initiative to propose this arrangement." As she said that, she looked at Jin Cheng'an with a rather profound look in her eyes.
