Do you know: I have a different surname: Wang, uncle Minglan

now.

Inside the Zichen Hall.

Zhao Zhenzheng was discussing the border war with hundreds of officials.

When Sheng Hong went to court for the first time, he couldn't help but feel frightened. He didn't even dare to raise his head, and looked very cautious, which looked very funny.

When the ministers discuss border wars, they only start from the aspects of military strength, supplies, etc.

Almost all officials did not suggest that the Battle of Daizhou should be dragged on for too long.

However, no one can say how long it can last.

"I heard that there is a locust plague in the Jiangnan and Huainan areas. What should we do if the autumn harvest is not in time next year?"

“Now that the national treasury is empty, it’s difficult for the Ministry of Finance to do business!”

"Fortunately, we have accumulated a lot of military supplies in the past few years, so we don't have to worry too much about this."

"."

I heard the ministers discussing.

Zhao Zhen frowned, "How is the locust plague in Jiangnan? Are there any officials from Jiangnan and Huainan who can tell us about the situation?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the officials fell silent.

Sheng Hong was originally in Yangzhou. When he heard the emperor's question, he was stunned for a moment. Then he walked out of the queue and kowtowed to the emperor:

"Chen Zhilang, the new minister, Ren Shenghong, comes from the Huainan area."

Zhao Zhen suddenly smiled and said, "I know you, Wei Qing and your family have a relationship. Now, what is the disaster situation in Huainan and Jiangnan?"

Sheng Hong was shocked and thought to himself, the Wei Qing mentioned by the officials is Wei Yuan, right?

How could a side general be so simple in the emperor's heart? !

Fortunately, he has not treated his sister badly in recent times!

Just as he was about to answer something, Han Zhang spoke impatiently not far ahead:

"Your Majesty, I have also seen locust plagues several times. I just need to wait until they are still larvae and raise more ducks, and then there will be no worries."

"Right now, there is something more important than the locust plague, and your Majesty needs to make an early decision."

Zhao Zhen frowned slightly, "What do you want to say?"

Han Zhang said: "Your Majesty, please establish the foundation of the country as soon as possible to stabilize the court and the country."

As soon as these words came out, all the officials showed panic.

Throughout the ages, it has been taboo in temples for emperors to establish princes.

Will it cause displeasure to His Majesty if Xianggong Han suddenly says that?

However, unexpectedly, Zhao Zhen took a deep look at Han Zhang, smiled and said:

"I have already had this intention."

"From now on, I will announce to the world that Prince Zhao Xi will be my crown prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty."

Zhao Xi?

That newborn child?

this.

Although there is something wrong.

But when Baiguan thought about it carefully, he could feel relieved. After all, Zhao Xi was the only flesh and blood of the official family.

If you don’t make him the crown prince, who should you make?

Although he is young, he has established a foundation for his country after all.

Since Zhao Zhen listened to Wei Yuan's suggestion, he raised his children in a beautiful place outside Beijing.

Recently, my health has been getting better and better.

As for that place, Zhao Zhen arranged many confidants and thousands of soldiers to guard it, so that there would be no accidents.

Speaking of which, this is all thanks to Wei Yuan.

Zhao Zhen thought of this and gradually felt a little grateful to Wei Yuan.

After all, it was too important to him that the child did not die young.

At this time, Han Zhang bowed deeply and said: "I congratulate Your Majesty, the crown prince has been established, and the country is stable!"

Afterwards, all the officials congratulated him.

Zhao Zhen was very happy.

After the dynasty dispersed, Sheng Hong first went to the official office to report, and then returned home.

By chance, Zhang Ding just arrived at Sheng's house.

Hearing that the eldest son of the British Duke had arrived, Wang Ruofu was so anxious that he was almost at a loss and quickly sent someone to invite Zhang Ding into the main hall.

At this time, many people in the Sheng family knew about Zhang Ding's arrival.

In Lin Sushuang's yard.

Mrs. Zhou quickly informed Lin Sushuang of the matter.

The latter was shocked, "The legitimate son of the Duke of Guo's Mansion? Come to our Sheng family? When did our Sheng family have a relationship with the Duke of Guo's Mansion?"

After a pause, she came up with her plan, "Mo'er, please dress up and go to the main hall immediately. If someone finds you, say that you passed by there accidentally. You must let the young master see you."

Mo Lan nodded and said without hesitation: "Mom, my daughter knows."

It stands to reason that when Zhang Ding comes to visit, it is not easy for the daughter of the Sheng family to be exposed to the public.

But that is the legitimate son of the Duke of Guo!

Lin Sushuang couldn't care less.

It's better to go than not to go.

at this time.

When Wang Ruofu arrived at the main hall and saw the majestic Zhang Ding, he quickly smiled and said:

"Young Master, I wonder why you have come here?"

Zhang Ding bowed his head and said, "I'm here to disturb you a lot. I'm here to send you a greeting card on my mother's orders."

Greetings?

The majestic British government comes here to send greetings?

Wang Ruofu's eyes lit up at first, and then he frowned in deep confusion and said:

"Although my Sheng family is a family of officials, I have never heard from the head of the family how it has any connection with your house."

Zhang Ding explained: "I'm here to send a greeting card to my brother Wei's eldest sister, Wei Shuyi, Miss Wei."

Brother Wei?

Wei, forgive me?

Wei Yuan, the disciple accepted by the British father-in-law?

For a time, Wang Ruofu thought a lot.

She frowned, "Then Miss Wei belongs to my Sheng family after all."

The words are not finished yet.

I heard the servant come to report, "The Lord is home!"

Sheng Hong came back, and he came to the main hall in a hurry.

"I heard that a distinguished guest is visiting me. I'm sorry for being late."

Zhang Ding cupped his hands and said, "Shangda people are very polite."

Sheng Hong looked at him and said politely: "I wonder why the young master came to my Sheng family?"

Zhang Ding had no choice but to repeat what he said to Wang Ruofu exactly.

Sheng Hong was immediately frightened and secretly said in surprise:

"The majestic Duke's wife actually wants to visit me. Isn't this too much of Wei Yuan's face?"

The visitor was a guest. Sheng Hong did not dare to be indifferent and said:

"Young Master is too polite. I'll accept this invitation. If you're not in a hurry, why don't you stay a little longer? How about you and I having a drink later?"

Zhang Ding shook his head and said in an astonishing tone: "Please forgive me, Lord Shanda, my mother has told me to give this letter of greeting to Miss Wei in person."

The implication is that as the head of the family, you cannot accept this invitation.

To be honest, this is inconsistent with etiquette.

However, the British Zhang family never cared about this.

After all, the Zhang family has the capital.

Before Sheng Hong said anything, Wang Ruofu became a little anxious, "I came to visit, how can I give you a greeting card?"

Before he finished speaking, Sheng Hong quickly interrupted: "What else are you going to say?"

"Dongrong, go and invite Miss Wei over here."

Dongrong nodded and retreated.

At this time, Mo Lan, who had arrived outside the main hall and heard the content of their speech, saw that Dongrong was about to walk out of the main hall, and quickly avoided it.

Then, she found Lin Sushuang and said, "Mother, the legitimate son of the Duke's Mansion is here to give Wei Xiaoniang a greeting card."

She explained clearly the cause and effect.

In an instant, Lin Sushuang said with jealousy:

"What kind of virtue is there in Wei's forgiveness? What virtue and ability is there?!"

Mo Lan echoed: "That's right, mother, what should I do now?"

Lin Sushuang frowned and said: "What can I do? I have a good brother, but my mother doesn't!"

"Mom, I can only count on you and your brother in this life."

She never expected it.

A dignified British princess actually came to 'visit' a concubine because of Wei Yuan.

In this way, wouldn't Wei Shuyi's status in the family be infinitely elevated?

Thinking of this, Lin Sushuang became deeply jealous again.
