Is the imperial concubine too unlucky? Is Concubine Wang's luck really that good? Not really.
The reason why Concubine Wang is so lucky is partly due to artificial luck.
In recent years, the imperial concubine has been too favored and too arrogant in the palace, which has offended some people.
So when the imperial concubine wanted to kill Wang Guifei, some people deliberately let Wang Guifei know about it so that Wang Guifei would not be defeated by the imperial concubine.
Even the queen helped Wang Guifei at the beginning.
The queen has a lot of power in the palace, so it is not difficult to secretly help Concubine Wang.
She was just thinking about defeating the imperial concubine first. After all, it would take ten or twenty years for the newcomer to come up and the children to grow up. It was hard to say what would happen in these twenty years. Anyway, she was better than the imperial concubine who had always been favored.
That's why she chose to help Concubine Wang.
That's why Concubine Wang is so lucky, because there are always people helping her.
But now, with the fall of the imperial concubine, Wang Guifei found that her good luck seemed to have come to an end, and things were not as smooth as before. This was normal, because after defeating the imperial concubine that many people hated, Everyone's target has turned to Concubine Wang, so Concubine Wang will find that after the fall of Concubine Wang, she is not getting better and better. On the contrary, her luck does not seem to be as good as before, which is normal.
In fact, with the fall of the imperial concubine, the second prince temporarily lost his competitiveness for the throne - but not completely, because as long as his supporters are strong, it is still possible to seize the throne - the most powerful contender for the throne at present has become The son of the eldest prince and Concubine Wang.
Because Concubine Wang's son has become the most competitive person instead of the second prince, Concubine Wang will naturally be targeted more. In this way, not to mention luck, bad luck may happen one after another. , after all, no one secretly helps her avoid danger. If she wants to face the danger by herself, the danger will come if she is not aware of it, and then she will be unlucky, just like her predecessor, the beloved concubine Huang Guifei.
Seeing that there was another fight in the palace, Linlang stopped paying attention for the time being - now that the imperial concubine has been taken care of, she only needs to pay attention to the second prince and ensure that the second prince cannot become the emperor, so naturally she does not need to pay too much attention .
The complete collapse of the imperial concubine triggered a chain reaction in Beijing, because although the imperial concubine fell out of favor before, she had not yet fallen. As long as she did not fall, it didn't matter, because anyway, the imperial concubine's son had grown up and had another child. If you have a certain amount of power, you don't need to worry about whether the imperial concubine is unpopular, just fight for the throne. When the emperor's son becomes the emperor, and the imperial concubine becomes the queen mother, won't you be able to rise again?
Who would have thought that Emperor Long Yan was so angry that the imperial concubine harmed Concubine Wang, and sent the imperial concubine into the cold palace? This is completely different from being unpopular.
The imperial concubine angered the emperor and was thrown into the cold palace. This would also make the emperor no longer want to make the second prince a prince. This would be a fatal blow to the people of the second prince's line.
Now there is the legal legitimate son of the middle palace, and there is the son of the emperor's favored concubine in the back. The second prince does not please the emperor, and no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like he will get better.
Thinking back then, the second prince had more hope than the eldest prince. Now, not to mention the eldest prince, even Concubine Wang's son has much more hope than him.
Seeing that the second prince had little hope of ascending the throne, many people secretly began to complain about the imperial concubine's disorderly conduct.
Obviously as long as she doesn't do any small tricks, she will have an advantage over others, but she insists on doing small tricks. Now that she is fine, she has put herself in the cold palace and ruined the future of the second prince.
The officials who supported the second prince not only complained privately about the imperial concubine, but some of them even complained to the second prince. As a result, the second prince also complained about the imperial concubine when he thought that his bright future was ruined by his mother and concubine, and it became more and more difficult to become her in the future. He went to the emperor, and became more and more resentful of the imperial concubine. He felt that it was the imperial concubine that had ruined his life. This is something to be forgotten.
But at that moment, some people felt that the second prince might not be able to get up, so they began to retreat.
Once someone quits, it will cause a chain reaction and a vicious cycle - seeing others leave, people who were originally swaying may also follow. In this way, a large number of people will leave, and the remaining small number of people will originally He is a staunch supporter, but seeing that there are too few people supporting the second prince, he may have other ideas. From firmness to wavering, and then from wavering to leaving, this vicious cycle will lead to more and more people supporting the second prince. few.
There are more and more people supporting Wang Guifei's son. Many people also think of what Linlang thought before. They feel that the emperor seems to be in good health and his adult son will not be popular in the future. On the contrary, underage children , because it does not pose a threat to the throne, but is more lovable. Perhaps it is better to support Wang Guifei's son than to support the second prince.
As for the eldest prince, because of his status as the legitimate son of the middle palace, those who support him have not run away for the time being. After all, those who support him have legal guarantees, and most people are still willing to support him and will not run away.
The downfall of the Imperial Concubine made her natal family, the Han family, immediately in trouble. After all, the Imperial Concubine Han was from an ordinary background. She only became prosperous by relying on the favor of the Imperial Concubine Han in the past ten or twenty years. Her foundation was shallow and weak. I can't handle it if there's a little trouble.
Now success depends on Xiao He and failure depends on Xiao He. Without the emperor's favor, and even Emperor Han's concubine was thrown into the cold palace, the Han family will naturally be in trouble. Unlike Duke Cheng'en's palace, although it declined after Zhou Guogong's accident, because of The foundation is there, plus he has a title, so he is just not as prosperous as before, but it is not like the Han family, which has fallen apart and is still a high-class family in Beijing.
After the collapse of the Han family, the one most affected was Mrs. Wednesday.
The imperial concubine was not favored before, but she moved out of the Chengen Palace, and her status fell instantly.
Now the imperial concubine has offended the emperor's new favorite concubine, which made the emperor furious, and she was thrown into the cold palace. Then her husband ruined the family business, and she was completely in despair, and she was a little worse than ordinary rich people—— Ordinary rich people, at least have some money, and others will not stay away from her.
As for her family, Master Zhou lost all their money, and then the imperial concubine offended the new favorite concubine and the emperor, which made some people dare not get close to her anymore for fear of being implicated by her.
Although the emperor in the palace may not care who is close to Mrs. Wednesday, outside the palace, Concubine Wang’s natal family will keep these in mind. If they see who is close to Concubine Han’s family, they will keep a small notebook, and then By ostracizing these people, no one dared to get close to Concubine Han’s family and her relatives, for fear of being implicated and then being punished by the Wang family.
Because the Wang family will keep an eye on those who are close to the Han family, and then exclude these people, the Han family is now in a desolate state. It is completely incomparable to the bustling traffic in front of the house a few years ago when the Han Emperor's noble concubine was still favored.
