Chapter 806: Candidates for the Crown Prince and Grand Master

Fortunately, he took decisive action at that time and silenced the person.

Otherwise, this time it would not be a demotion, but it would be possible to be relegated to the sidelines.

If your position is still there, you will have a chance to make a comeback.

Just after the New Year, sorrow and joy came from Yan Mansion. Master Yan died of illness at the age of sixty-six.

Fortunately, it was the Chinese New Year. Yan Shu had been in poor health a few years ago. The family had made preparations, so it was not so difficult to accept. His eldest son died young, and his second son Yan Chengyu took care of the affairs after his death. Fu Bi was Yan Shu's son-in-law and was also busy.

On the 23rd of the first lunar month, just after Master Yan's funeral arrangements, there was mourning and joy again in the Di Mansion.

Master Di Qingdi passed away at the age of forty-eight.

Di Qing and Han Qi were born in the same year, and Fu Bi was four years older than Di Qing. Both of them were very strong, but Di Qing had already suffered from injuries due to years of fighting abroad. In the past two years, in order to regain the sixteenth The state did not rest for a day, and was hit by the enemy's hidden arrows, and the oil was exhausted.

After Di Qing's death, His Majesty granted him the title of Duke of Zhenguo.

The nephew can still inherit the title, which means that his son Di Yong will become the marquis after taking the title.

When Su Yixin heard the news, she sighed very much. In this life, Mr. Di did not end up miserable, and his children and grandchildren were still protected by him, which couldn't be better.

Several ministers in the DPRK died of illness one after another, so they needed someone to take their place.

Master Yan's position has been decided to be replaced by Master Han, and Master Di's task of guarding Youzhou has been handed over to Cao Zhan.

In fact, there is still quite a controversy between Cao Zhan and Pang Yuanzhi regarding this appointment.

Cao Zhan is the son-in-law of Pang Yuanzhi and Wen Yanbo. Cao Zhan has outstanding military achievements. He once served as the military governor of Jiannan and has rich experience in running the army. Pang Yuanzhi is the fifth son of Pang Ji. He has good martial arts, but compared to Cao Zhan, his experience is Still not enough.

So Zhao Zhen made the final decision to let Cao take it.

Compared with Lord Di, Cao Zhan's reputation was still slightly inferior. Yelu Hongji, the newly succeeded Emperor of the Liao Dynasty, heard about it and sent troops to test it out.

Cao Zhan was not polite and drove the person back directly.

At this point, Cao Zhan became famous in the northern battle, and his prestige in the army was increasing day by day. Yeluhong's power was basically unstable. After being beaten back by Cao Zhan, Yeluhong became more honest and focused on his imperial uncle and competed with him. right.

After Han Qi and others came to power, the Song Dynasty was prosperous.

At this time, His Majesty took the initiative to bring up the matter of establishing a prince.

If the official family is willing to establish a prince, the ministers will naturally be happy. Once the prince is established, everyone will feel at ease.

What's more, although Zhao Rui, the fifth son of the middle palace, is only twelve years old, he is smart and smart, and is a bit more courageous and resolute than the original officials. The ministers are very optimistic about him.

His Majesty is old and it seems difficult to achieve the unification of Western Xia, Liao and Dali in his lifetime, but it is very possible for the fifth prince to achieve it.

Praise for the establishment of the crown prince resounded throughout the government and the public, and Zhao Zhen decided to formally confer him on the fifth day of the fourth lunar month.

After the decree to establish the East Palace, Qingshou Palace was very lively.

Cao Yuyan didn't hug them either. As long as she didn't understand the rules, she should be happy when she should be happy. Hiding and hugging them would make people feel fake.

Zhao Rui left school and came in with brisk steps: "Mom, I'm hungry."

Cao Yuyan nodded Zhao Rui's head: "I said I was hungry as soon as I came here. Are you short of food at noon?"

"Mom, for some reason, I always feel hungry after the Chinese New Year, as if I don't have enough to eat..."

"Mom, I'm back!"

As Zhao Rui was talking, he saw a figure rushing in. It was still February, but he was sweating profusely: "Fourth brother, what are you doing? You are all wet."

"look!"

Zhao Yu took out a small cage from behind: "Huang Weiwei said this is a lark and sings very beautifully. I will catch it and give it to my mother."

When Zhao Rui was very young, the palace people taught him to call his mother queen, and he did so in a polite manner. But later he found out that when his fourth brother was called mother, the palace people taught him to follow the rules, but Zhao Yu did not.

Over time, Zhao Rui also followed Zhao Yu in calling her mother. Every time Cao Yuyan heard this title, her heart felt soft, thinking that she was just like all the women in the world, just an ordinary mother.

"Mom, do you like it?"

"I like it. Mom likes everything Yu'er gave me."

The palace attendants brought water, and after the two men had washed themselves, they sat next to Cao Yuyan and listened to them talk about what happened today.

"Mom, when I came back just now, someone told Yu'er that the fifth brother wants to be a prince. What is a prince?"

If other children said they didn't know the prince, they were definitely pretending, but the twelve-year-old Zhao Yu was mentally retarded and really didn't know what a prince was.

Before Cao Yuyan could speak, she heard Zhao Rui say: "I know that the prince will be the emperor in the future. Am I right?"

Zhao Zhen happened to be walking at the door at this time.

Knowing that they were having a meal and did not let anyone in the palace know when they arrived, and now no one inside knew he was there, he suddenly wanted to hear what the queen would say.

"Yes, but not entirely right."

"Mom, what do you mean by this? I don't understand."

"You'll know later."

Historically, there were not many princes who inherited the throne. Some princes were deposed by the emperor because of their poor moral character, and some died in battles between brothers.

Although Zhao Rui is the only suitable candidate for the emperor now.

But if Zhao Rui himself fails to live up to his expectations, or if someone with good intentions wants power and supports others...

After all, Zhao Rui is still too young, and His Majesty's body.

Zhao Zhen did not hear what he wanted to hear, and came in directly without any further entanglement.

"Father, you are here."

Zhao Rui and Zhao Yu were very happy to see their father, but they still did not forget the etiquette and saluted properly.

Cao Yuyan followed and saluted, but was held back by Zhao Zhen with his hands: "No need to be polite, just sit down. Forsythia, please add a pair of bowls and chopsticks."

After dinner, Zhao Rui went to review his homework, Zhao Yu danced with guns and sticks in the yard, and Zhao Zhen and Cao Yuyan drank tea on the porch.

It's still a little cold.

But the night is good!
Zhao Zhen put down the tea cup and looked at Cao Yuyan: "The situation in the DPRK is very good. Rui'er will be the crown prince soon. Why is the queen unhappy?"

Cao Yuyan: "..."

If Rui'er were four or five years older, she would naturally be happy.

Now, it's not that I'm unhappy, but I just don't dare to let go of my worries. I still hope that he will live for a few more years and protect Rui'er as she grows up.

"By the way, after Rui'er is granted the title of Crown Prince, she will be granted the title of Crown Prince and Grand Master. Does the Queen have a suitable candidate?"

Cao Yuyan: "..."

Is this what she can say?

This problem is killing each other one by one.

Although he was not as suspicious of himself and the Cao family as before, he did not say that he trusted her to this extent.

"Queen?"

"I think Ziyuan is very good."

Cao Yuyan thought for a while and felt that this answer was the safest, and it was also what she was thinking. The entire Song Dynasty knew about her relationship with Princess Ruian. Gu Qingjue was her husband-in-law, and she asked Gu Qingjue to be the teacher of the future prince. Best for her.
