Chapter 455 The End (8)
I don't know you yet?You are right now, when I really die, you will kill all these imperial doctors and bury them with me.I will die when I die, why bother to commit these murders?

The queen confessed countless good things to the emperor, but in the end she refused to let the imperial physician treat her, and died with a smile on her face.

If she had any regrets in the end, it was that her daughter, Princess Linchuan, was away with her husband and son-in-law. Before she died, she was unable to see her only daughter for the last time.

The emperor hugged the empress' warm body and cried bitterly.

After the queen passed away, the life of the prince became even more difficult.In the past, when the empress was there, the emperor would be angry, and the empress would intercede and say good things for him. After the empress left, no one dared to persuade the emperor when he was furious. As a result, the prince became more and more difficult , Easy to blame.

The prince was ordered to go to the north to inspect the terrain, customs and customs of the north. After returning, he became ill and died young.

The emperor lost his son in his later years and was hit hard.

Aside from their grief, the ministers were very worried: Will His Majesty choose one of his sons to be crown prince, or will he choose one of the crown prince's sons to be crown grandson?Who will be the emperor's favorite crown prince, and who will be the next king?
King Qin, King Jin, King Han and others who were in the vassal land couldn't sit still any longer. They handed over their seals to the capital to express their deep sorrow for the untimely death of the eldest brother of the crown prince, and at the same time showed their courtesy to their father, clearly Secretly told the emperor: I have a precious character, I have managed the feudal domain in an orderly manner, I am as talented as you, and should be a prince!

After crying for a while, Concubine Lu in the Eastern Palace called Ah Wen and explained to him in detail, "...in front of your grandfather, I must be mourning endlessly, understand? Speaking of your father, besides praising his merits, you should also pay tribute to him." Repeatedly explaining that he is the eldest son, remember? Since your grandfather wants to inherit the eldest son, how can you establish a prince if there are still grandsons in the East Palace?"

Ah Wen was a little confused, "But mother concubine, if you want to establish a grandson, the third brother..."

Xiaotong's mother is the Concubine Yuan of the Eastern Palace.And Ah Wen, when he was born, Concubine Lu was still the second concubine, that is to say, he was a concubine.

According to the strict eldest son inheritance, of course, if there is a prince and a son, the emperor's grandson should be established, but Ah Wen is not a direct grandson in the strict sense-the identity of the child depends on the identity of the mother when he was born.There are examples of this in history books.Weizi, Weizhong, and King Zhou had the same mother, but their mother was a concubine when they gave birth to Weizi and Weizhong, and she was a wife when she gave birth to King Zhou. throne.If it is really necessary to remind the emperor to insist on heir succession, then it should be Xiaotong who is established as the emperor's grandson, not Ah Wen.

Concubine Lu's face darkened, "You are the elder brother, and he is the younger brother! You have to remember this!"

Ah Wen seldom saw his concubine mother have such an expression, and he was afraid, so he quickly agreed, "Yes, concubine mother."

Concubine Lu's expression gradually calmed down, and she smiled and said, "Not only are you slightly older than your third brother, you are also gentle and courteous, with the demeanor of a benevolent monarch, you know? This is what your grandfather and emperor valued. Also, mother The concubine's natal family is not well-known, but your third brother's natal family is powerful, and you are far superior to him in this regard."

Ah Wen's eyes were full of puzzlement.Why is it that the third brother's natal family is stronger than mine, but I am stronger than him?
Concubine Lu smiled complacently, "What is your grandfather, the Emperor, most afraid of? The power will fall to the side. He withdrew the Ministry of Education and abolished the prime minister for nothing more than to monopolize the power. He is also very afraid of the dictatorship of his servants and the chaos of his relatives." Zheng. After you are established, the Lu family has no influence. He is absolutely not afraid that his relatives will disturb the court, but if your third brother is established, I am afraid that the Chang family and the Lan family will be the last ones in the future. At that time, what will be the surname in this world?"
