Main Characters: Yu Yuanzheng, Shangguan Ziqi
Yu Yuanzheng transmigrated into the original host on her wedding night. Upon arriving, she was immediately forced to listen to her cousin and hus...
After hearing this, the prince and his son looked at each other.
Shangguan Ziqi nodded slightly.
Turn around and go out.
After a while, a large box came in and was placed on the table. He opened it and took out an iron box.
Yu Yuanzheng didn't even need anyone to call her. She just sat down in front of the iron box and fiddled with the fourteen numbers. A slight "click" sound was heard.
The emperor watched her movements in amazement.
Only when Yu Yuanzheng opened the lid did he come to his senses.
The emperor could not help but stand up and move the iron box in front of him.
It turned out that there were only two small boxes inside.
Take it out with your own hands.
One can be opened, but the other has a combination lock, which makes the emperor frown.
It was just as King Rong said.
The prince took the initiative to step forward and explain to the emperor that the pistol was the weapon that killed Emperor Canglan.
After the emperor had admired the gun enough, he put it back into the box.
He then picked up the box with the combination lock.
"Hongyi, guess what's in here?" The emperor turned around and looked left and right.
"I don't know."
"Ziqi, what do you think is inside?" The emperor couldn't get an answer from the prince, so he asked Shangguan Ziqi.
"I guess it might be a relic that our ancestors liked the most." Shangguan Ziqi was too embarrassed to say he didn't know like King Xu.
"Where is the Princess Zhenguo?"
"Your Majesty, I think there is a treasure map inside." Yu Yuanzheng was very ideal.
"Haha, you are indeed a money-loving person. I also think there is a treasure map inside. Can Princess Zhenguo open it?" The emperor was also extremely poor, so he was very pleased to hear Yu Yuanzheng's guess.
Deep down, he hoped there was a treasure map inside.
"I haven't figured out what the password is yet." Yu Yuanzheng also tried many times.
But there was no clue at all. Although she still thought of the twenty-six characters, she didn't know which pinyin they were.
The large box had the pinyin of the Chinese characters for "Hongmei" (Red Plum) on it, but the small one only had six digits, so I had no idea which characters the number was.
There are so many words on the box. It's hard to guess.
She had no inspiration for the moment.
Now that she had the most important bomb formula in her hands, she was no longer so eager to know what was inside, so she slacked off a little.
"Then keep thinking about it and try to open it. If it is really a treasure map, I will reward you with a big house. If you have another son, you will have a place to live."
The emperor's temptation is unprecedented, and it is obvious that he is encouraging her to have more children.
"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will do my best."
She couldn't ask for one tenth of the treasure. After all, the Wei treasury was so empty that it didn't even need to be locked.
The next day, Prince Rong deliberately did not attend the morning court.
According to the news, the fake emperor did not do anything out of the ordinary, but handled state affairs honestly.
The prince guessed that he probably enjoyed the honor of being worshipped by all the court officials.
For the next three days, the fake emperor did not make any major moves, but the attitude he showed at the morning court was clearly biased towards the third prince.
At the same time, he also found reasons to suppress the eldest prince.
Since the eldest prince returned to the capital, he has been helping Shangguan Ziqi deal with military affairs. The emperor has not arranged any clear tasks for him, and currently he is sent wherever he is needed.
Some ministers and some powerful families in the capital took advantage of the situation and sided with the third prince.
Among them is the Yong'an Earl's Mansion.
Yu Yunxin didn't get any benefit from the palace.
His niece was conferred the titles of Princess Zhenguo and Marquis Zhenguo, and his nephew was the top scorer in this imperial examination. However, such honors did not benefit the Yong'an Earl's Mansion at all.
He wanted to ask the second brother for help, but he was not in Beijing.
His niece didn't treat him well at all.
Moreover, now that she was in a high position, he did not dare to act like an elder in front of his niece.
Yu Chaoyang has already moved out of the palace and rarely goes out, and is of no help to the Yong'an Marquis's Mansion.
When he learned that the emperor was becoming more and more fond of the third prince, his heart warmed up.
He secretly gave the Third Prince some secret properties and submitted a letter of allegiance to the Third Prince's Mansion.
It actually worked.
The eldest son, Yu Qingli, finally passed the imperial examination last year and became a juren, but failed the metropolitan examination. The second son, Yu Qinghao, passed the imperial examination and became a xiucai, but never made any further progress.
This time they took refuge with the Third Prince, and were soon assigned relatively satisfactory jobs.
Yu Qingli was arranged by the Third Prince to work as a clerk in the palace, and Yu Qinghao was also arranged to work as a small prison warden in Jingzhao Prefecture.
These words also reached Yu Yuanzheng's ears.
She just sneered: "You are going further and further down the road of seeking death."
But she had no feelings for the Yong'an Earl's Mansion. She only went there on the day of her return visit and never went there again.
Fortunately, I didn't go to Beijing, otherwise there would be trouble in the future.
However, after Yu Qingsheng found out about this, he came to the palace to find Yu Yuanzheng.
"Sister, do you know what happened to my uncle?"
"Know."
"Will there be a baby in our second room?" Yu Qingsheng was most worried about this.
He knew that his brother-in-law had the best relationship with the eldest prince. Now the emperor has changed his attitude. He doesn't know what will happen in the future and he is a little worried.
If the third prince fails to ascend the throne in the future, the second branch of the Yu family will be implicated.
After all, even if the first and second wives split up, they are still the family with the closest blood relationship.
"Don't worry, the emperor seems to be clear in his mind. No matter what happens to the first wife in the future, our second wife will not be affected." Yu Yuanzheng still had some confidence in this.
Based on her merits, the emperor would definitely give her this face.
Sometimes the eldest wife regrets it.
But she won't remind you too much.
Should I tell my uncle about the emperor’s plan?
That's impossible.
"Okay." Yu Qingsheng listened to his sister very much.
"You're about to go on duty, right?" Yu Yuanzheng was concerned about her brother's condition.
"I'll report in a few days." Yu Qingsheng entered the Hanlin Academy to gain experience as an editor.
It may seem like an insignificant job, but it is the position closest to the center of power.
As the emperor's literary attendant, the editor of the Hanlin Academy was responsible for drafting imperial edicts and confidential documents.
These documents often involve major national policies and policy decisions. To do this job well, one must have a solid literary foundation and keen political insight.
Therefore, most of the top three candidates in each session entered the Hanlin Academy.
However, no one promoted him, and it was very likely that he would never have the opportunity to be promoted in the Hanlin Academy. He would just be doing the compilation and revision of history books.
But as Yu Qingsheng was Yu Yuanzheng's younger brother, the emperor would certainly pay more attention to him. So he didn't worry about his ex at all.
"Okay, Dad and Mom will be back soon, and it's time to finalize your marriage with your sister. Is there a girl you like? I'll go and propose to you." Yu Yuanzheng saw that her younger brother had grown up quite a bit.
Although she is still young, she is old enough to be kissed at this age.
"There's no rush. I'm still young." Yu Qingsheng blushed a little when talking about getting married.
"Okay, this is not up to you. Wait until mom comes back and talk to her."
Feeling relieved, Yu Qingsheng played with his three nephews for a while before leaving.
Two days later, the fake "emperor" still did not take any special action, but the real emperor could not live in the Prince's Palace forever.
He was worried that the fake man had gone so crazy that he thought he had really fallen off the cliff and died, and would go to visit his concubine, which would have disastrous consequences.
We have to make that fake guy take action as soon as possible.
