"Your Highness!" Pei Yu immediately turned around, "The Princess Regent is not the Regent. If Fu Lie were here and Your Highness did this, I would not have the slightest objection! But Wen Qingzhu is not the Regent!"
He glanced sideways and looked back. Sure enough, he should have taken out Wen Qingzhu first from the beginning!
Wen Qingzhu walked forward step by step, passed Pei Yu, and walked up the gold-carved steps.
"Princess!" When Pei Yu saw this scene, his blood surged and he shouted to stop her.
But it had no effect, Wen Qingzhu still walked up step by step.
Even Jiang Yuanhan himself was stunned. Sister, this is...
Wen Qingzhu stood beside him, turned to look at the ministers below, raised his hands and said: "Xiang Pei thinks that I am just a mere regent and cannot interfere in the affairs of the government."
Pei Yu knelt down immediately, followed by the Minister of Rites, the Minister of Hu, and the newly appointed Minister of Rites, Ji Chun, and others, all knelt down.
Along with Pei Yu, he asked for instructions: "Prince! This is the kingdom of the Jiang family! The court of the Jiang family! Please give the prince an order! Capture the regent princess! She committed the following crime and disrespected the etiquette and law! It is really disrespectful! Please give the prince an order! !”
As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Yu and more than a dozen people knelt down.
There are less than twenty important ministers standing here, but the ministers headed by Pei Yu already account for more than half.
Wen Qingzhu glanced at the remaining people, including Wei Ziying and two people from the Wei family, Lei Xiao and three veterans from the Hanlin Academy, and two new officials headed by the Liang family.
She guarded her gaze, looked down at Pei Yu and said, "Why is Prime Minister Pei so anxious? I haven't finished what I just said."
Pei Yu and others were still kneeling and did not respond.
Wen Qingzhu looked at Lei Xiao: "Speaking of which, this matter is also related to Mr. Lei. The late emperor once left an imperial edict. Why not ask Mr. Lei to take it out and announce it to the world."
"Sister!" Jiang Yuanhan subconsciously raised his hand.
Wen Qingzhu looked back at him: "Yes, you keep calling me sister, because I am your sister."
Jiang Yuanhan's heart suddenly panicked. Was his sister going to completely draw a clear line with him
no! Absolutely not!
He turned around to stop Lei Xiao, but Lei Xiao had already walked out and said, "I obey your orders! Your Royal Highness, the eldest princess!"
As soon as these words came out, Pei Yu and others who were kneeling, as well as Wei Ziying and others who were standing, all looked over.
Wen Qingzhu became serious: "Then I will wait here for Lord Lei."
Jiang Yuanhan couldn't say anything anymore and just looked at Wen Qingzhu blankly.
He previously wanted to use the imperial edict of canonizing the eldest princess to keep his sister, but now that her sister has stayed as the regent princess, there is no need for that edict at all.
At this time, if the elder sister wants to come up with the imperial edict, then the elder sister can only be the elder sister.
After about half an hour, Lei Xiao returned to the Xuanzheng Hall and read out the imperial edict.
After hearing this, Pei Yu almost vomited blood.
If the identity of the regent is not enough, then the identity of the eldest princess cannot be questioned!
Lei Xiao put away the imperial edict, looked at Pei Yu and others and asked, "Does Prime Minister Pei have any questions? Do you want to check this imperial edict?"
Pei Yu, an old fox for many years, could naturally hear the subtle pleasure in Lei Xiao's words.
This old traitor turned out to be on Wen Qingzhu's side!
At this point, what else could Pei Yu say but accept his fate.
In order to confirm Wen Qingzhu's identity as soon as possible, Lei Xiao urged the Minister of Rites: "Master Zhu, please prepare as soon as possible. The canonization ceremony will be held tomorrow, and the official documents will be distributed to all parts of the country immediately."
"Yes, yes." Mr. Zhu was a little dazed. He couldn't help but look up.
Is this life
After Master Zhu and Minister Zongzhengsi retreated, Lei Xiao turned to Jiang Yuanhan and asked for instructions: "Prince, since the princess has the status of the eldest princess, it is time to arrange a residence for her here in the palace!"
Pei Yu had already stood up at this time and retorted coldly: "The status of the regent princess is higher than that of the eldest princess. She is already married, how can she still stay in the palace?"
Lei Xiao replied calmly: "Did Prime Minister Pei forget? Now that the regent has not returned to Beijing, the regent cannot listen to the government, but the eldest princess can."
"But the late emperor didn't designate her to take charge of politics!" Pei Yu refused to give in.
At this time, Wei Ziying stood up and said: "Prime Minister Pei, the princess is not the princess, but the eldest princess. This shows that the princess can listen to politics behind the curtain."
Pei Yu gave Wei Ziying a deep look: "Didn't Master Wei want to invite the regent to return to Beijing?"
Wei Ziying glanced at Wen Qingzhu above, and then replied: "Earlier, the minister and the princess have sent news to the regent. Now that the messengers from Dingyuan have returned, the news from the regent has not come back. I am afraid that the regent will not be able to do it in a short time." Returning and letting the eldest princess take charge of the affairs just makes up for the vacancy of the regent."
Pei Yu knew that this time he failed completely.
Soon, the news that Wen Qingzhu had been conferred the title of eldest princess spread.
Naturally, the capital city was in turmoil again, but in front of the enthronement ceremony and the funeral of the late emperor, all this was nothing.
In Qianyuan Palace, Wen Qingzhu was summoning Bai Di to discuss his residence.
Jiang Yuanhan sat next to him without saying a word.
"Princess, these are the princess's traditional residences. Do you like any of them?" Bai Di handed over a map book.
Wen Qingzhu actually knew the layout of the palace, but she still took a look.
Looking at the place where the princess lives, there are Jiaoyang Pavilion and Fengyang Pavilion where Yijia and Dejia lived, and Qingyang Pavilion where Princess Wuyang lived earlier.
Counting all the way, there are actually twelve princess palaces in total.
But Wen Qingzhu didn't want to choose, mainly because these places were too far from Qianyuan Palace.
Wen Qingzhu's eyes fell around the Qianyuan Palace. In addition to the Qingning Palace directly behind, one was the Chengming Palace on the left, and the other was the Huaqing Palace that had been uninhabited for a long time.
It is said that the Taizu of Da Qi specifically changed the name of this palace to a concubine. It was previously called Hualuan Palace.
There is no record of that concubine in the history books.
There is only one thing recorded, that is, the concubine did not like the word "luan" and changed it to Huaqing Palace herself.
This was originally against the rules, but Taizu changed it anyway.
Taizu rarely made exceptions for others, but he made an exception for that concubine. It was obvious that Taizu liked that concubine very much.
But the concubine died of illness less than a year after entering the palace. Later, Taizu went back to Huaqing Palace to visit her for half an hour every day.
The traces in the history books can also be erased by Taizu.
Naturally, it would be impossible for subsequent emperors to trace her. To show respect, the two successive emperors would not arrange for their concubines to move into the Huaqing Palace.
Therefore, Chengming Palace became the residence of the beloved concubine.
After closing the book, Wen Qingzhu turned to look at Jiang Yuanhan: "Your Highness, I am only staying temporarily, so I will live in Huaqing Palace."
After asking for a long time, Jiang Yuanhan still looked distracted.
Wen Qingzhu called him again: "Yuan Han!"
Only then did Jiang Yuanhan come back to his senses, looked at her and asked: "Sister... what are you asking about?"
Now the word sister has become a thorn in his heart, and his tone immediately dropped.
Although Wen Qingzhu could see what he was thinking, this was fine: "Prince, I want to live in Huaqing Palace, is it okay?"
"Huaqing Palace? Where is it?" Jiang Yuanhan didn't remember it for a while.
Wen Qingzhu pointed to the right and said, "Next door to Qianyuan Palace."
"Huh?" Jiang Yuanhan thought carefully and then suddenly understood.
He hesitated and said, "But isn't Huaqing Palace not for people to live in?"
Wen Qingzhu was also thinking: "It's just that the imperial concubines of all dynasties will not be arranged in Huaqing Palace out of respect for Taizu. However, the princesses' residences are too far away. I don't think I can live there for long, so I will stay in Huaqing Palace for the time being." It should be possible."
"That's fine." Jiang Yuanhan nodded.
Arriving inside Huaqing Palace, Wen Qingzhu was surprised to find that the decoration inside was extremely simple.
I don't know if it's because no one has repaired it, but the whole palace has a very old feeling.
The eunuch who led the way walked forward and took Wen Qingzhu to the main hall.
What comes into view is the towering master, which is not painted with vermilion paint, but only with a layer of tung oil.
What is different from other palaces is that there are several huge skylights above the head, inlaid with transparent glass.
The interior of the house is exceptionally bright.
It took a full hour before Wen Qingzhu looked at Huaqing Palace.
Finally she stood in front of a rather ancient bathhouse. This is actually—
At this time, Jasmine hurriedly came to report: "Princess! The messenger's news has been solved!"
"How's it going?" Wen Qingzhu immediately turned around.
Jasmine's face looked a little solemn: "The regent is trapped in Moxue Mountain."
Wen Qingzhu's expression changed and he immediately followed Jasmine to the Xuanzheng Hall.
When we got here, most of the people here had already arrived.
Wen Qingzhu's identity has been made public, and everyone has acquiesced in her arrival.
She quickly walked to the front, but did not go to the top. Instead, she raised her head and asked Jiang Yuanhan: "Prince! What is going on over there with the Huns?"
Jiang Yuanhan's face was solemn, and he seemed a little embarrassed to speak.
At this time, Wei Ziying stood up and spoke: "It's like this. The problem with Fu Lie is not with the Huns. According to the Lu family's news, it was Lu Ce who personally led people to trap Fu Lie. This matter is the fault of the Zhenguo The general has speculated, but there is currently no evidence, but we also agree with General Lu's speculation. Does the princess think Fu Lie can solve this matter?"
"Is there any other news?" Wen Qingzhu's face turned cold.
Jiang Yuanhan replied: "No! But don't worry, sister, I will send someone over!"
Wen Qingzhu shook his head: "There is no need for the prince to send people. There is Daqi's most elite army over there in Dingyuan. If they can't solve it, I'm afraid no one can solve the Xiongnu problem. But I think the prince should send someone to deliver the dinner news." , this news was sent too slowly!”
After saying these words, Wen Qingzhu turned around and left here.
Regardless of the other people's eyes, she had to find Xin Zhong, even though he was the one prepared for Jiang Yuanhan.
But if Lu Ce takes action, Wen Qingzhu cannot guarantee whether Fu Lie can return safely.
Especially at this time, she couldn't rush over.
Another reason is that the teacher is also there. Although Pei Yi cannot see through his purpose, he will never stand idly by.
Lu Ce is very powerful, but Fu Lie, Pei Yi, teachers and others are also very powerful.
In addition, the Huns themselves also have many problems. '
So Wen Qingzhu is very confident that Fu Lie can definitely solve this matter.
It's just that they need time, Fu Lie needs time, and everyone needs time.
Including the Huns.
Wen Qingzhu immediately left the palace and directly found Xin Zhong.
"Master Xin, I need your help."
"Are you going to Dingyuan?" Xin Zhong also received the news.
Wen Qingzhu nodded: "That's right! We're leaving immediately!"
