It would be fine if today's things have passed, but this is just today's things have passed. Obviously, this thing will never end like this.

Just the next day, after the morning court, the situation did not change much from before. The ministers said something about it. Some people raised questions, while others solved the problems. It seemed that this was exactly the same as before, without any change at all.

But it is obvious that after yesterday's incident, it is absolutely impossible for people in the court to not think about this matter. No matter how you think about this matter, it will not be forgotten.

The final result was true. After almost all the discussions on the court, it was about to be that turn. And the first person who stood up could not be someone else, but Wang Jiaping himself.

"Your Majesty." Wang Jiaping looked serious when he stood up. Of course, he was a person with no expressions, especially in the court. His expression was always like this. But now when everyone knows what he is going to stand up and say, his expression is very uneasy. But in fact, the only person who is most uneasy is probably Zhu Yijun.

After hearing this "Your Majesty", Zhu Yijun was really scared. Although yesterday, he knew that this would be the case today; although just now, when he saw Wang Jiaping stand up, he knew what he wanted to say. But even so, Zhu Yijun couldn't help but tremble when Wang Jiaping spoke. It seems that he was really scared by Wang Jiaping's "perseverance" spirit!

"What do you have to say about my dear?" Although I was indeed a little scared in my heart, of course, this fear was more because Zhu Yijun was afraid of trouble, and not because he was really afraid of Wang Jiaping himself. But no matter which one it was, for Zhu Yijun now, it was not what he wanted to see.

"Yesterday, I asked about the enthronement of the crown prince." Wang Jiaping was naturally not polite at all, nor would he beat around the bush, and said directly, "Yesterday, Your Majesty said this matter needs to be considered. After I returned, I thought about it. Your Majesty said it was good. After all, the enthronement of the crown prince is the foundation of the country, but it is related to the future of my Ming Dynasty. Therefore, it is not wrong for Your Majesty to consider this matter more."

When Zhu Yijun heard Wang Jiaping say this, he felt a lot more relaxed. Although he didn't know why Wang Jiaping had such a big change in his mind within this day, no matter what the reason was, it was a good thing for him: "I feel a lot more relaxed when I hear my dear said this. This matter is indeed very important, so I also want to think more about it."

"Your Majesty's words are good." Wang Jiaping nodded, but then, his expression of relaxation just now became serious again in the next moment, "But I have been thinking about this matter for a long time. The matter of enthroning the crown prince is an extremely important matter. But this matter must not be delayed just because His Majesty is undecided. What's more, although His Highness is not old now, it is enough. Therefore, I think that Your Majesty should make His Highness the crown prince now."

After saying this for a long time, Wang Jiaping took back this sentence. He did say that Zhu Yijun's approach was good yesterday. Even what Zhu Yijun did yesterday, it was just a way to delay no matter how he looked at it. But obviously, Wang Jiaping did not point it out so sharply. This can be said to be a rare time for Wang Jiaping to fool such obvious things. But considering what he is going to talk about now, even if he sits upright, he still knows some of the most basic human nature. Therefore, Wang Jiaping understood very well. Compared to pointing out Zhu Yijun's delay, he would quickly propose the matter of appointing the crown prince. This is what he cares most about.

After Zhu Yijun heard Wang Jiaping's words, his head hurt again. Sure enough, Wang Jiaping was just polite to him just now, and Wang Jiaping would never forget his real killer move. However, compared to this method, he directly proposed to make him make Zhu Changluo the prince, and no one would like to give him a blow to the red date.

But Zhu Yijun is already sitting here now, and facing the problem of Wang Jiaping, he could not say a reason and just stand up and leave without saying a reason.

"But just now, did you say that?" Zhu Yijun held his head with his hand, and said with a helpless expression, "The matter of enthroning the crown prince is not a trivial matter, it is the foundation of the country. And I also said that the idea of ​​my desire to go back and consider is not good. Since that is the case, why did I insist on letting me make Luoer the crown prince immediately!"

"Your Majesty, it is a must-do." Wang Jiaping was really calm and did not look panicked when facing Zhu Yijun's question. Obviously, these were all things he had already thought about. "Now, the three princes, the eldest prince is enough, and the third prince is too young, let alone the fifth prince who is only two years old. In this way, since the eldest prince is old enough, it is natural to enthrone the eldest prince as the prince."

"But even if Luo'er is old enough, he is only ten years old after all. Yes, when I was named the crown prince by the late emperor, I was less than ten years old. But you must know that the late emperor only had the only prince, so there is no need to talk about this matter. But now, I have three princes. Although Luo'er is old enough, how can you know that Luo'er must be suitable to be the crown prince and even inherit the throne in the future? Perhaps, Xun'er and even Hao'er are more suitable!"

"Your Majesty said it is right." Wang Jiaping agreed with Zhu Yijun's words very simply, but obviously, he had prepared for this and had long guessed that Zhu Yijun would say this, "However, the matter of establishing a crown prince is a big deal. If the crown prince is not established for a long time, the officials in the court will not be able to feel at ease. All officials cannot feel at ease, and the affairs of the government will be more thoughtful. If the affairs of the government cannot be enforced, the country will be affected in the future. In this way, the losses will not be worth the loss.

"What Your Majesty said, I thought for a long time yesterday. Of course, what Your Majesty said was very correct and thoughtfully. But if you just ignore the present moment for this, it would not work. Therefore, I think that Your Majesty should make a crown prince now.

"If you talk about which Your Highness is more suitable in the future, I dare not say it now. But since Your Highness is old enough, just by virtue of your seniority, Your Majesty should also make Your Highness the crown prince. This is the case, and you will never be wrong. Please give your Majesty a clear explanation." While saying this, Wang Jiaping knelt down again.

And this time it was the same as yesterday's scene. During the conversation between Wang Jiaping and Zhu Yijun, no one spoke. But when Wang Jiaping finished speaking and knelt in front of Zhu Yijun, the others took action. Just like now, after Wang Jiaping knelt down, the people from yesterday, other people in the cabinet, and other ministers also walked out one by one, and knelt down to Zhu Yijun behind Wang Jiaping. He also said, "Please ask Your Majesty to make the Grand Highness the Prince."

The only difference is that these people now have to make much progress compared to yesterday. Yesterday, these people didn’t know that Wang Jiaping would suddenly come forward to raise this matter, that is to say, yesterday, these people were not prepared at all. But today is different. After experiencing yesterday's incident, everyone knew about this matter. Even after resigning from the court yesterday, no one except Zhang Fan had any communication with Wang Jiaping. But even so, everyone could think of it. Wang Jiaping would definitely talk about this matter when he was in the morning court today.

Therefore, compared to yesterday, they just felt that they should stand up, so they knelt down with Wang Jiaping and said that they had already foresaw this matter today. Therefore, the actions of these people today were much more uniform than yesterday. Many people stood up together, knelt down together, and spoke together.

Of course, there are some people who act alone, but these people obviously also observe the situation above. After the others have movements, these people immediately take action. Basically, today, the time spent on these people to complete this scene was not even 20% of yesterday.

Obviously, the more these people are like this, the more headache he will feel for Zhu Yijun.

Zhu Yijun understood very well that the people kneeling in front of him now were different from Zhang Fan. Although Zhu Yijun also understood that Zhang Fan also praised Zhu Changluo as the crown prince, just after all, Zhang Fan knew him very well. Therefore, when Zhang Fan talked about this matter, he was considering Zhu Yijun in many aspects.

Zhang Fan did not say that he would compromise with him, but he did not force him to do so. Therefore, it is easier for Zhang Fan to talk to him.

I want to say here that Zhang Fan did this but he was thinking about it. The relationship between Zhang Fan and Zhu Yijun is indeed good, and everyone knows this. Since Zhang Fan and Zhu Yijun first met, Zhang Fan, as Zhu Yijun's teacher, taught him many things, and took great care of him in many things. Especially after Zhu Yijun became emperor, many scenes were not something that Zhu Yijun could solve by himself. Zhang Fan would also give him advice and try every means to help him overcome difficulties. At that time, Zhang Fan's intention was to help Zhu Yijun.

But this time it was different. This time, Zhang Fan's actions also helped Zhu Yijun, and it could even be said to have helped Zhu Yijun a lot. However, Zhang Fan's thoughts were different. On the surface, he was trying to help Zhu Yijun, but in fact, Zhang Fan also wanted to find a way to make Zhu Yijun make Zhu Changluo the crown prince.

It’s not that Zhang Fan and Wang Shuyuan have some past experiences, that’s why he is like this. It’s not that Zhang Fan really hates Zhu Changxun’s lazy look and plans so. The most critical issue is actually the Concubine Zheng.

The two did not have much contact, but even if they didn't have much contact, it would not hinder Zhang Fan's understanding of her. And in Zhang Fan's understanding, Concubine Zheng was too powerful for power.

Like Empress Li of the past, Concubine Zheng was also a winner of the harem struggle. As an emperor, Zhu Yijun now has many concubines and will be blessed with others. However, his favor can be said to be only on Concubine Zheng. He is full of favors. This sentence has described many women, and Concubine Zheng is now one of them.

However, there is one thing that Concubine Zheng is different from Empress Dowager Li. Empress Dowager Li was the same at the beginning. Even after Longqing passed away and Zhu Yijun ascended the throne, she was even more regent as the empress dowager, holding power firmly in her hands. However, Empress Dowager Li herself did not have much power in the world. The reason why she did this was entirely because her son was too young and had just ascended the throne, afraid that he would be deceived.

Therefore, Empress Dowager Li did this. Although after that, she also handed over power to those who could govern the country, such as Zhang Juzheng. But even so, Empress Dowager Li could still play a restrictive role in order to prevent her from taking back the power if there was any accident. Of course, even if Empress Dowager Li had already prepared for such possibility, she almost couldn't grasp it. But now, I won't mention this matter for now.

But Concubine Zheng is different. She pursued power like Empress Dowager Li back then. But she is different from Empress Dowager Li. She is indeed for her son, but she is definitely not for the world of the Ming Dynasty. Even if she is more practical, even if she does this for her own son, in fact, she does this for herself.

However, although Concubine Zheng is indeed good at fighting for power and intrigue in the harem, it can be said that she has succeeded now. But she is not a person who can hide herself, and it can even be said that she is a person who can be proud and complacent. After just getting some achievements, she felt that she had succeeded. After she felt that she had succeeded, she would not hide her ideas at all, and even exposed her plans to everyone.

Perhaps for Concubine Zheng herself, she has succeeded in being able to do this today. And as long as the emperor's favor for her has not changed, then in the future, the entire court, and even the whole world, she has the final say!

She never thought that the emperor was indeed the most powerful one in the Ming Dynasty, but obviously, as the emperor with the greatest power, what he said might not be true or wrong. You must know that there are so many ministers in the court. Among so many ministers, even if everyone has more or less problems of this kind. But you must know that most ministers are still very upright. These people do not understand the affairs of the court and the affairs of the world, and they will not clearly understand it, but they must go against the current.

Therefore, although Concubine Zheng won the victory and took the lead in the harem, she actually took this matter too simple. Obviously, the matter would never be so simple.

Therefore, the ministers actually dominate this matter. But after all, the other party is the emperor, so it is still very difficult to say what to do if they are evenly matched.

Zhang Fan had calculated that if the ministers wanted to succeed in this matter, Zhu Yijun had no choice but to make Zhu Changluo the crown prince, that was very, very high. Zhang Fan absolutely believed this. But at the same time, Zhang Fan also calculated that if this matter was like this, I am afraid that these ministers in the court would definitely suffer heavy casualties and pay a huge price.

Note that the heavy casualties here are not an exaggerated adjective, but a result that is true.

Zhang Fan had anticipated this, so he also made some tricks in the way he treated this matter.

Zhang Fan understood that if he made great efforts in this matter, then it would be obvious that Wang Jiaping and the others would become much easier to achieve their goals. Not only will the difficulty of the matter be smaller, but even the time will be greatly shortened.

But at the same time, Zhang Fan also knew that if he did this seriously, even himself, no matter how good the relationship between him and Wanli was, he might be affected.

At this time, Zhang Fan had to start thinking about himself. And the most important thing was that Zhang Fan had already figured it out that even if he did not have his own efforts, it would definitely be possible. The only difference is that time and the casualties of ministers were probably much higher than that of his lack of help. But no matter what, it is certain that this matter can be accomplished.

Since that's the case, there is no need for Zhang Fan to put himself in. Anyway, it can be done, so why bother to add himself to him?

What's more, Zhang Fan didn't really take it as hard as he didn't give any effort, but the way and degree of his efforts were different.
