Blessed wife descends from heaven

Chapter 279

With the end of the palace change, Zhang Mandun and others also got busy, not because of the investigation of the rebellion, but because the emperor issued an abdication edict.Although it is now the deep winter and the twelfth lunar month, according to the ancestral system, he will soon bless and seal the pen, but this abdication edict means that the crown prince must ascend the throne in the shortest possible time to ensure that the Great Zhou will not be leaderless.

Fortunately, the emperor was seriously ill before, and the crown prince supervised the country for many days, and moreover, the crown prince was surrounded by capable ministers and warriors, and it was the New Year's Day when political affairs were the least, so I was worried that something might go wrong.What they are most worried about right now is that the people of Baiyue are dying endlessly, and they will be killed at the last moment.

Therefore, not only the upper and lower parts of the capital, inside and outside the government and the field, but also the homes of powerful and high-ranking officials, and even the homes of those small officials who are unknown and have no right to go to court, have to be checked from top to bottom.It is also because of saving their lives and avoiding suspicion that many men from rich and noble families no longer dare to provoke women at will. Even the aunts and concubines who were brought into the mansion in the early years have all fallen out of /favor/ now.On the contrary, the main wife of the family, whether she is old-fashioned or not tender enough and has been picked on by many times, is now the treasure of the family, and no one dares to go up to find it uncomfortable.

Of course, Yu Lin Baozhu had nothing to do with Zhang Mandun, and they just listened to it for fun after dinner.

In fact, although Zhang Mantun was busy, he did not miss returning to the mansion to accompany his wife and son.He is not a selfless master who does not enter the family of the three countries. In his eyes, even if he is helping the court, he must be placed after his wife.The kidnapping of his own daughter-in-law involved in the treason a few days ago made him terrified. Now that the crown prince in the palace is worried that there are still remnants of evil activities, he is naturally even more worried.

And Lin Baozhu didn't say anything to let him take care of his official duties, don't worry about the family, because he is her man and the responsibility of the family.Sometimes, I can't always be so considerate as if I don't need him.

The two of them have been married for so long, and the child has been born for more than a week. Lin Baozhu has also realized some things about the way of husband and wife.A woman can't be ignorant, but she can't be too strong to make men feel that she is not afraid of anything.

Sure enough, every time after being obsessed with each other, Zhang Mandun was content to work hard, looking at his daughter-in-law so much that he felt sorry for her.Even when going out to do errands, he always remembers his wife's preferences, and whenever there is a dinner party with his colleagues, he will not delay too much.How can eating wine and bragging with those rough men compare to listening to your wife's soft words and talking to yourself?
And in the imperial palace, the emperor, who had experienced two times of rebellion by his son and wanted to kill his father, was even thinner and thinner now.Even though the misery in the palace was washed away by the joy of the new year, it was difficult to make his spirit better.

The emperor with a hoarse voice just now coughed violently, while patting the empress who had been sticking by his side with his bony hand to signal her not to worry.After a dull, tearing cough passed, he gasped for breath, and ordered someone to call the prince over.

After the arrival of the prince, the empress promptly proposed to pay her respects to the empress dowager.She can sit firmly in the harem, not relying on the emperor's/favor/love. There are some things she can fight for herself, but there are some things that don't allow her to be more curious.

Until only the emperor and Prince Rui were left in the palace, the emperor looked at this son who was always the least conspicuous among the brothers, and also the least vying for achievements.Up to now, he still can't figure out how this son got to this height.

To be honest, at the very beginning, his positioning of the third child was just that of a virtuous king.Even, in order to prevent the third child from having a different heart, he sealed his status as Prince Rui early on, and allowed him to leave the palace to build a mansion.And all along, what this son did was really in line with his wishes, he never formed a clique, and never won over people's hearts.

It can be said that the news from the Dark Guard was that he was still the third child in Prince Rui's time, and there were not many officials and ministers who had close contacts in the court.Even if occasionally he praised his son in front of the civil and military courts in order to mention his status, in the end it was nothing more than a thank you. , should be worthy of being a just and honest virtuous king and be that just and honest virtuous king.

Thinking of this, the emperor's expression became quite complicated.If it wasn't for the fact that the boss rebelled, he had the time to think carefully, perhaps he hadn't realized that all the princes and grandsons, except the third prince, had all been murdered.But above the court, the youngest who had no power at all, was able to stabilize the court without any effort, so that there was no chaos in Da Zhou.

If he still couldn't see it by this time, he might have lived his whole life in vain.

"I'm old, but I'm not old and confused. It's just that I haven't figured it out until now. How could it be you." Now he is no longer the old treacherous and unpredictable mind in the court, and he is even gone. Let the youngest lead the people to fight the Xiongnu with pride and ambition, the rest is nothing but gray hair on the temples and an old and tired body.

In previous years, when the end of the year was approaching, he would still write blessings. If he was free and in a good mood, he would go to the Imperial Garden and look at the exquisite pavilions and pavilions made of stone and jade. Huanxin pretends to meet the concubine by chance to visit the garden and tell about Fengyue.Naturally, it is also necessary to watch the peonies or other flowers cultivated by the imperial flower house standing proudly against the cold wind.It's a pity that those were the previous years, and now he not only lacked that vigor, but even lost the idea of ​​joy.

"Father, emperor, everything is God's will." Facing the aged emperor, although the prince was still respectful, he no longer had the anxiety and uneasiness he once had.Even when faced with the doubtful questioning and emotion in these words, he was not nervous at all.After all, the father is an old lion, and it is impossible to show the domineering and courage of the emperor.

The prince lowered his eyes, and did not have any side reaction to the emperor's words, just like the usual third prince who was calm and timid, methodical and good at forbearance.There is no prince who will not be indifferent to that seat, not to mention that he is the third child, who is a few years older than the fifth child and sixth child.On weekdays, he is moody, but in the end it is just his scheming.

The emperor looked at the son in front of him, but had to admire his sudden growth.In his memory, he couldn't even remember how this child grew up like this.For a moment, the emperor seemed to regain some energy, and he forced himself to sit up rustlingly, but the prince sighed inwardly when he saw this, and subconsciously got up to support the elderly emperor, and then stroked his back.

After a while, the emperor stopped coughing weakly, but when he looked at the prince again, he smiled a little more.His son, as it should be, even if he has the most honorable position in the world in his heart, he is not a rebellious son with a wolf's heart.

"I always thought that I could read people's hearts and control everything. But no matter what the truth of those things is, I don't want to investigate any more." The emperor sighed, looked into his son's deep eyes, and said firmly: "You promise me , after ascending to the throne, there will never be massacres in the royal family. In the future, no matter how the offspring of your brothers live, it will depend on their own fortune."

The brother-in-law killing each other, father and son facing each other with swords, had already broken the emperor's heart.He would never want to see that the benevolent crown prince he personally selected would dispose of his grandson with his own hands in the future.

The prince raised his head slowly, looked at the emperor fixedly, and faced those eyes that suddenly burst out with sharp gaze, he took a step back respectfully and knelt down respectfully, "My son will never fight in the royal family again, father And don't worry."

"Forget it, now I have three things to tell you." The emperor waved his hand to signal the prince to stand up, panting, even though the words were extremely difficult, he still said word by word, "First, work hard to rule the country, keep the country safe and secure, love the virtuous and stay away from courtiers. Second , be filial to the aunt, make the crown princess the queen, but prevent foreign relatives from monopolizing power. The crown princess is virtuous, but it is a pity that marrying into the royal family is doomed to be dangerous every step of the way." As he said, he sighed and coughed again, and finally became weak Then he said, "I don't know what your intentions are in supporting Zhang Ji, but you have to obey me. If one day you lay hands on Zhang Ji, you will spare the Zhang family, the couple and their descendants."

He was the one who missed Baozhu's mother's life back then. If he hadn't broken the oath for the throne, Yue'e would have lived a life of gold and jade.And all he could do was to leave a way out for her daughter.

The prince was surprised by the emperor's last request, but when he thought of the previously unknown entanglement, he understood it.

Hearing his father's words, the prince kowtowed firmly and replied: "I would like to abide by my father's oracle." After a pause, his expression remained unchanged, and his tone remained calm, "Don't worry, my father, as long as Zhang Ji does not disagree , my son will never touch Zhang Ji."

Zhang Ji is the same as Zhang Mantun. Although he is not completely controlled by him, as long as he uses it properly, he will definitely become Da Zhou's strong backing.Of course, the reason why he chose Zhang Ji and Zhang Mantun was not because he was overzealous or blindly valued talents, but because he had already investigated the temperament of Zhang Mantun and Lin Baozhu.

Such a person has no ambition, and values ​​family and blood the most.And Lin Baozhu is the same, she has some thoughts and ideas, but the advantage is that she values ​​worldly money, but she doesn't care about status and dealing with noble ladies.

To be honest, it is people like the couple who can really reassure Prince Rui.Although obedient has his own opinions, he never oversteps, let alone make decisions without authorization.Moreover, most of the people around him are people who have economic relations with Zhang Ji.
