Chapter 186 Qin Zihao Canonized as Prince Hao

The Palace of the Three Princes.

"Prince Concubine, Eunuch Li Quan from the palace is here to announce the decree, please hurry to the front hall to receive the decree."

Lin Qingwu was overjoyed, stood up and looked at himself up and down, and saw that he was well-groomed, and immediately said: "Go, now follow my concubine to the front hall to receive the order."

Lin Qingwu hurried to the front hall with her maid, and knelt down with Qin Zihao and all the servants of the Third Prince's Mansion to receive the order.

Li Quan cleared his throat, opened the imperial decree, and said in a sharp voice: "Fengtian carries the emperor's decree... In view of the emperor's third son, Qin Zihao, who is handsome and diligent, and possesses talents. It is very respectful to serve the national army; Parents are very filial; siblings are very dignified; ministers and servants are very dignified. Greatness is the demeanor of a father, and my shadow in the evening."

"Qin Zihao, the third son of the emperor, is now enshrined as Prince Hao. He can set up a minister and officials in the palace, and 20 guards. Add 10 taels of gold and [-] pieces of silk. The title can be hereditary and will be passed on to the descendants in the future. The eldest son, Qinzai! The canonization ceremony will be held in ten days!"

After Li Quan finished reading the imperial decree, Qin Zihao and Lin Qingwu who were kneeling were startled.

After a long while, seeing no response from the two, Li Quancai reminded: "Third Highness, Third Prince and Concubine, don't hesitate to receive an order to thank you."

Qin Zihao returned to his senses, calmed down his turbulent thoughts, kowtowed, and said: "My son, please take the decree to thank me, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live."

After receiving the imperial decree, Li Quan hurriedly helped Qin Zihao up, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Your Highness the Third Highness on becoming Prince Hao. Among the princes, you are No.1, which shows the emperor's favor to you."

Qin Zihao pursed his lips, pretending to be calm and said: "Thank you Eunuch Li, I'm sorry for Eunuch Li, please go to the main hall and have a cup of tea before going back."

"Thank you, Third Highness, but the emperor is still waiting for the servant to go back to reply to the order in the imperial study, so the servant will not stay any longer."

Qin Zihao nodded, turned his head and said: "Chen Steward, send a gift to Eunuch Li for Your Highness."

"Yes, Your Third Highness."

Steward Chen turned his body sideways, made a gesture of invitation, and said, "Please, Eunuch Li."

Quan Quan bowed to King Qin Zihao again, and Housekeeper Chen sent him out of the mansion, and gave him a heavy purse at the gate of the mansion, making Li Quan smile and squint when he left.

Lin Qingwu looked astonished, and said, "Your Highness, why are you the Prince Hao? Shouldn't the Emperor be the Crown Prince?"

Qin Zihao's eyes froze, and he said: "Prince Concubine, His Highness does not want to hear this a second time. It is already a great honor for His Highness to be granted the title of Prince Hao by my father!"

Lin Qingwu realized that his words were wrong, lowered his head and said in panic: "It's my concubine who said something wrong, please forgive me, Third Highness."

Qin Zihao was upset and didn't want to talk to her, so he glanced at her and walked away.

Lin Qingwu stood where he was, his delicate face was full of disbelief, and he clenched his hands tightly.

Why was he named Prince Hao?Why not the prince!

……

Yonghe Palace.

Lian Yi hurried in, and Concubine Shu couldn't wait to ask: "Lian Yi, how is it? Has the emperor's imperial decree arrived at the third prince's mansion? Has the emperor appointed Zihao as the crown prince?"

Lian Yi's eyes dodged, and he hesitated and said: "Mother, the emperor's imperial decree is to arrive at the Third Prince's Mansion, but, but..."

"But what?! Hurry up and tell Ben Gong, be careful that Ben Gong will punish you now!"

"Your Majesty, let me just say that." Lian Yi frowned, and said, "It is the Emperor's will that His Highness the Third Highness be conferred the title of Prince Hao, and also, and..."

Prince Hao?
The blood on Concubine Shu's face faded, and her face was full of shock. After a long while, she pursed her lips and said sharply: "What else? Hurry up and tell me one by one!"

"The emperor has another imperial decree to go to the second prince's mansion, which is to give a marriage to the second highness, to marry Yang Taiwei's eldest daughter, and Yang Yueying to be his concubine."

"What! The emperor gave Yang Taiwei's daughter Yang Yueying to the second prince in marriage?!"

Seeing Concubine Shu's gloomy expression, Lianyi took a small step back timidly, and said in a low voice, "That's right, I have sent someone to inquire carefully. The canonization ceremony of the Third Highness will be held in ten days, and the marriage ceremony of the Second Highness will be in In January."

Concubine Shu's face was extremely ugly, she clenched her hands tightly, and her nails were stuck in the soft flesh of her palm, but she didn't notice the pain at all, and she fell into anger.

Concubine Shu Gui swept all the teacups in the room to the ground, and after a crackling sound, there were fragments all over the ground.

"Give Yang Yueying a marriage to Qin Ziyan, what on earth is the emperor thinking! He also made Zihao the prince on the same day, to tell the world that he doesn't want to make Zihao the prince, right! Damn! Damn..."

Seeing Concubine Shu smashing things like crazy, Lianyi knelt down in panic, "Your Majesty, please calm down, what should you do if you are so angry, Your Majesty... Calm down..."

"Get out! Du Bengong get out! Get out!"

Lian Yi was hit on the shoulder by a vase, and she groaned in pain. She didn't dare to go forward to persuade Concubine Shu, so she could only back out slowly, and closed the door, allowing Concubine Shu to vent her anger inside.

……

Prime Minister's Mansion, Lin Langtian's study.

A man in black sneaked in, leaned against Lin Langtian and whispered a few words.

Lin Langtian frowned, his face was serious, and he said, "Really?"

"Returning to the master, it is absolutely true, and now the two imperial edicts have arrived at the Third Prince's Mansion and the Second Prince's Mansion respectively."

The emperor's move caught Lin Langtian by surprise. He thought that Qin Zihao had made great contributions to water control in the south of the Yangtze River. Qin Zihao was far better than the second and sixth princes in both literature and military affairs. The emperor loved Qin Zihao a lot. He will be crowned prince.

But never thought that the emperor's move was unexpected by everyone.

The man in black continued: "Master, I believe that the trend of the court will definitely change tomorrow. The second prince's own mother clan has power, and now with the addition of Taiwei Yang, the third highness is named Prince Hao. Few people want to follow the wind and turn the rudder, and fall to the second prince's party."

"Yes, Not Bad."

"Then... what should I do?"

Lin Langtian pondered for a moment, and said: "I will find a way, you step back first, and remember to let people keep an eye on all the movements of the second prince's mansion."

"Yes, master."

As soon as the voice fell, the man in black flew out of the window, and his figure disappeared into the darkness.

Lin Langtian frowned, and sat quietly in front of the desk for a long time before he got up and twisted the mechanism on the bookshelf. The bookshelf moved away, revealing a tunnel entrance. He took the torch from the tunnel entrance and lit it, and walked in.

After Lin Langtian walked into the tunnel, the bookshelf slowly moved back to its original position.

Lin Langtian came to Yonghe Palace.

Unsurprisingly, Concubine Shu was full of hostility, smashed the bedroom into a mess, and fell down on the messy ground.

Lin Langtian walked to her side and helped her up.

Concubine Shu turned her head to look at Lin Langtian, with tears in her eyes, she said: "Lin Lang, the emperor made Zi Hao his prince, and also married Yang Yueying, the eldest daughter of the Taiwei, to the second prince..."

"I know everything, don't worry for now, calm down first, and then we will think about countermeasures."

"Calm down?" Concubine Shu suddenly said angrily, "How calm do you want me to be? We have carefully arranged for so many years, and we are about to succeed! But now... now, everything is in vain!"
