At Zai Zhang's house.
"Prime Minister, this is not good news. Now the princes have no children, but King Yun gave birth to an heir first.
If King Yun ascends to that position in the future, with his character and power, how can there be a place for us and other Dukes Gongun? "
"Yes, Prime Minister, all our investments are in the fifth prince. As the saying goes, once the emperor comes to the throne, if King Yun comes to power, it will not only be a matter of wasted investment, our five princes' party will definitely be destroyed. To be reckoned with, King Yun is not a prince like these in the court. King Yun has soldiers in his hands.
If pressed, he can turn the table over! "
"Xiang Guo, you are the head of the officials, you have to give us an idea!"
"Xiangguo!"
"Xiangguo!"
…
Zhang He felt like his brain was about to explode when he heard the officials under his command making noisy noises below!
Just let yourself make up your own mind, don’t you have any brains?
Or is it that you have been too comfortable following me all these years, and you don’t even know how to use your own brains? You just want me to move, so why don’t you just lie down?
"stop!"
Zhang He suddenly shouted loudly, and the officials who had been making a lot of noise immediately stopped talking, and all looked over in silence.
Taking a deep breath, Zhang He rubbed his sore eyebrows and said helplessly:
"Why are you panicking?
If King Yun has a heir, he will have a heir, which does not necessarily mean that he will ascend the throne!
Isn’t the fifth prince not married yet? Of course, there are no children. If you are in a hurry, why don't you marry your daughter to the fifth prince as soon as possible? Then won't you be able to have children after getting married?
At that time, are you still afraid that King Yun, a vassal king who has already died, will come back to fight for his position? "
At this time, someone whispered: "We also want to marry our daughter to the fifth prince, but you don't know that he has not accepted any of them these years, not even as a concubine. Prime Minister, you said that he is the fifth prince." Not in that respect..."
Before he could finish his words, he was stopped by the furious Zhang He: "Stop! As a minister, how dare you make random guesses about the descendants of the Tian family!"
Then Zhang He looked at the crowd and said: "The reason why the fifth prince doesn't like her is because your daughters are all crooked things, so naturally the fifth prince doesn't like her.
Now, under the pressure from the Holy Emperor, aren't the fifth princes going on a blind date like crazy?
At this time, the fifth prince is under a lot of pressure, so his demands will naturally be lowered. You can try again. "
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes suddenly lit up and they all raised their hands: "The prime minister is wise!"
Then they each found an excuse to leave.
But who doesn’t know that he is recommending his daughter? Just as the Prime Minister said, the fifth prince must have lowered his requirements at this moment. What if he goes late and is not beaten by others?
After all, there is only one position for the head wife. If the fifth prince ascends the throne in the future, she will be the empress of the world!
After a while, more than half of the people in the hall were gone. Looking at the rest of the people who were distracted, Zhang He waved his hand helplessly:
"Let's all go, don't waste time with me here."
The remaining people suddenly showed awkward smiles and left one by one.
It wasn't until everyone was gone that a pretty woman in green clothes with tea came out from the back of the hall and came to Zhang He's side.
"Dad, don't be angry, drink tea!"
Seeing the person coming, Zhang He's frown suddenly relaxed and he said with a smile:
"Yan'er, why are you here?"
The person who came was none other than Zhang He’s daughter, Zhang Yuyan.
Zhang Yuyan pursed her lips slightly and walked behind Zhang He. She gently pressed her father's head with her bare hands and asked slowly:
"Why is father worried?"
Zhang He closed his eyes slightly, enjoying his daughter's massage and sighed: "Alas...it's not your cousin."
Zhang Yuyan was surprised when she heard this:
"Cousin? What's wrong with cousin?
I heard that recently my cousin’s house has been asking around for girls from various families who are planning to get married?
This was what my father was most worried about before. Now that my cousin has taken the initiative, why is my father so annoyed? "
Zhang He said helplessly:
"It would be better if he got married earlier and had children earlier. Now that Prince Yun's son has been born, the title of the eldest grandson of the royal family has been taken by the Prince Yun family. All the officials are anxious."
Zhang Yu smiled sweetly and said with a smile: "What's the use of being anxious? This child is not just a child. Before, my cousin didn't want to get married. Whether it's aunt or father, it's not up to him. "
Zhang He sighed heavily again, turned to look at his beautiful daughter, and said helplessly:
“I would like him to get married as soon as possible, but neither mother nor son are willing to accept the woman I recommended to your aunt.
This has been delayed until now, why do you think it is? "
"Why is this?" Zhang Yuyan was puzzled.
This is what she has always been puzzled about. It stands to reason that the children of the royal family get married early. For example, Prince Yun, who was not very favored, the emperor had arranged a marriage for him just a few years after leaving the vassal. How could his cousin not be married? Delayed until now?
My cousin is three years older than King Yun!
Zhang He snorted coldly and then said:
"They are wishful thinking! What kind of person is my daughter? He is just a concubine prince. If I hadn't supported him, there would be no chance of him fighting for the throne. Now that he is here, his mother and son are actually thinking about you!
As a father, naturally I cannot agree, and your aunt also knows that if I were not the concubine, I would never be able to marry you, so the mother and son are holding off like this."
"What? Me?"
Zhang Yuyan was so surprised that she couldn't even imagine that her aunt and cousin would have her own idea.
Zhang He nodded and asked, "What do you think of your cousin?"
Zhang Yuyan recalled it for a moment, and then said with some hesitation: "My cousin listens to my aunt very much."
Zhang He immediately sneered and said: "A man with great ambitions but little talent is embarrassed and useless. If I were not related by blood to him, why should I choose him to support him as a man?"
Guang has a good skin, but he is a cowardly and helpless guy. Although the fourth prince is cruel and ill-informed, he dares to confront the prince head-on.
As for him, after all these years, with the support of his father, he naturally only knows how to stay on the sidelines, like a sinister person, without any dignity.
I just know how to do some tricks secretly.
But if you want to become a king, what's the use of only using small tricks?
If a monarch can only play small tricks, he will never achieve anything. Since ancient times, all monarchs who have achieved success have always used the right combination to win by surprise.
The means are only used as a supplement. Only when you can crush others head-on with grand momentum can you win people's hearts. This is the way to be a king.
Playing tricks? Ah!
Can you outperform the rest of the world by yourself?
There is no sign of a human being at all! "
Obviously, Zhang He was very dissatisfied with Zhao Sheng. In his opinion, with his own support and the support of most of the civil servants in the court, the fifth prince could fully rely on his own power to confront the prince head-on and let the officials see clearly what he was holding. With such strength, as long as they keep winning like this, the remaining outsiders who are unwilling to surrender will definitely come to join them one after another when they see such a situation.
Only in this way can power develop and grow!
But he was fine, hiding all day long, reducing his sense of existence, and only listening to his mother's words without having his own opinion.
My younger sister knows very well that she only knows a little bit about how to fight in the harem and the palace, so if she listens to her words and comes to seize the heir, isn't this a joke?
The officials will only think that you are a petty person with no sense of the overall situation. Let alone surrender to you, they would rather stay away from you, for fear that you will be splashed with blood when you make a mistake!
