After crossing, I was dragged by the bamboo horse and became a queen

Chapter 213 The Perfect Tool Man

Originally, as the "former daughter-in-law" of King Huaiyang, even if Shangguanjing was automatically exempted from detention, it was normal for her to be called to ask a few words by the court official of the Sanju Division.But she has actually lived a very clean life these past few days. It seems that the whole court has forgotten that King Huaiyang has a son-in-law who has already married a wife.

As those who experienced King Huaiyang's rebellion on the spot, most of the officials in the court went to the Ministry of Punishment to make statements or hand in written materials, including Prime Minister Chen, Taiwei Lin, and Su Ping.As for the people from the Huaiyang Prince's Mansion, they were interrogated more than once, but after so long, no one mentioned that Xiao Jingheng and the young couple should be sent for questioning.

These days, not only does it seem that the whole court has forgotten the young couple, even the emperor in the palace seems to have forgotten his extra son.And these days, the emperor still doesn't allow Xiao Mingrui to enter the harem casually, as if to prevent his sister from getting in touch with Xiao Jingheng.

But even though Xiao Mingrui could not enter the palace, Xiao Jingheng still had a good life because the queen mother was there.He lived a regular life every day. He went to the Empress Dowager's Palace early in the morning and evening to say hello, and then returned to Pingkang Palace to study in the study.

The Empress Dowager is the only grandson left now, and she takes good care of him. She can't wait to watch Xiao Jingheng's every tea and meal, and specially sends a lot of trusted maids to Pingkang Palace to take care of Xiao Jingheng's food, clothing, housing and transportation in three shifts. .

Xiao Xi, who originally carried the teapot and tea leaves on his back, lost his job all of a sudden, but he is not idle. He and Quan Fu are now Xiao Jingheng's personal servants, which Xiao Jingheng asked for himself.

Xiao Jingheng generally did not allow court ladies to enter his bedroom, but Xiaoxi and Quanfu were the ones who could enter the house to serve him. The Empress Dowager was worried and dissatisfied for a while, but because Xiao Jingheng insisted, the old lady did not interfere too much.

The only remaining grandson is of course quite precious in the eyes of the empress dowager, so the old lady is actually quite used to Xiao Jingheng, but there is one thing that Xiao Jingheng has asked her many times but to no avail, that is, to receive the official Quiet into the palace.

Every time this matter was brought up, the empress dowager talked about him from left to right, very avoiding, and only said that after the emperor met Xiao Jingheng, he would definitely make good arrangements for their young couple.

However, for more than a month, the emperor did not propose to meet Xiao Jingheng, but asked Qi Zhengrong to pass on a decree to Xiao Jingheng after the Qiyuan Hall's funeral was over, allowing him to continue to study.

The emperor's decree was not clear, and he didn't explain it in detail, but Qi Zhengrong had a long memory this time. In order to avoid offending others, he specially chose the time when Xiao Jingheng went to greet the empress dowager, and ran to Shou'an Palace. The empress dowager's face-to-face decree.

Sure enough, as soon as the empress dowager heard the order, she immediately became energetic.

Xiao Jingheng is the only prince right now, so education cannot be the same as before, so he can just take a big class in Yushuyuan. Naturally, everything must be carefully planned according to the prince's standards.

The emperor's attitude of letting go, without any indication, gave the empress dowager a chance.The master has to be carefully selected, and the accompanying study has to be arranged. The empress dowager's priority is of course her own natal family.

The empress dowager's maiden name is Yang, and she was born in Yongzhou near Xijingji. The Yang family is considered a wealthy family in Yongzhou. Seventy percent of the fertile land in Yongzhou belongs to the Yang family. On the ground of Yongzhou, it can definitely be called "stomping one foot and shaking three times".

It's a pity that although the Yang family is a well-known wealthy family in Yongzhou, they can only be regarded as a third-rate family in Beijing. The official position is not high, and the highest one has been a third-rank official, and he is still an outsider.

Because there is no strong clan to help pave the way, compared with the big clans in Beijing, the Yang family's power in the court is weak. The Queen Mother's father was considered the most promising Yang clan back then. , but an idle job with no real power.

The most praiseworthy thing about Mr. Yang in his life is that he married a beautiful wife who was from a small family and was not in the same family as him, and gave birth to a very beautiful daughter. Later, he entered the palace and became the emperor's favorite concubine. Empress Dowager Yang.

The empress dowager was not only beautiful when she was young, but also shrewd. She knew that her family was weak compared with the empress and other concubines, so she softened her body and actively courted the empress and concubines from aristocratic families.

In this way, she climbed to the position of noble concubine step by step, gave birth to two boys and one girl for the late emperor, and successfully married the wives of the first-class aristocratic family in Beijing for her two sons.

Regardless of Concubine Yang's low family background, one of her two daughters-in-law was from the Chen family and the other was from the Su family. The two great families spared no effort to help her defeat the former queen and take the position of successor.

On the surface, Empress Dowager Yang, who climbed from a low-ranking concubine to empress position, was the one who had the last laugh in the empress palace, but in fact, the Chen family and the Su family chose to help her because they took a fancy to the weakness of the Yang family. Therefore, when the first emperor was alive, the Yang family's sons and nephews developed well in the court because of Empress Yang and the prince.

It's a pity that this golden period was too short. Soon the emperor passed away and the new emperor ascended the throne, but the Empress Dowager Yang did not usher in the prosperity of her own family as she planned. Lin Taiwei, who was only in his 40s, was promoted to an official. He selected Lin Taiwei, Su Ping's father, and the then prime minister of Qin as the emperor's teachers, and asked them to assist the new emperor.

This Prime Minister Qin is no one else, the Qin family is also a first-class family in the capital, and the former empress that Empress Dowager Yang defeated was from the Qin family.

After the death of the first emperor, although Empress Yang became the empress dowager safely, in the eyes of the Chen family and the Su family, she did not have too much value. The home is still the one that was pushed aside and didn't get much advantage.

Under such circumstances, how can the empress dowager not be in a hurry?She has done a lot for the Yang family these years. There are several concubines surnamed Yang in the harem, but unfortunately they are not very favored.

The emperor couldn't intervene, so the empress dowager began to miss the emperor's grandson, but unfortunately, the biological mothers of the previous princes were very powerful, so it was not so easy for her to intervene in the affairs of the princes.

Right now, after King Huaiyang's rebellion, the situation in the court has changed suddenly. The emperor's only remaining son, Xiao Jingheng, is simply a perfect tool man in the eyes of the empress dowager.

His biological mother, Su Shi, was already dead, and even if she did not die, it was unlikely that she would enter the palace.And Xiao Jingheng's wife, Shangguanjing, who has a strong background, has not yet entered the palace, and Empress Chen and Concubine Lin Guifei are immersed in grief and have not yet reacted. In the eyes of the empress dowager, this gap is simply a godsend.

　---Here is the dividing line of origin--
　　It depends on who you are compared with if you are born tall or not.The empress dowager's background cannot be compared with empress Chen's, but she is also from a wealthy family, not a daughter of a poor family.It's just that the big families also scored three, six, nine, and the Yang family obviously couldn't rank at the top.
