Chapter 186 Partiality
Chapter 186 Partiality
The Queen Mother was in a good mood and ate one more bowl of rice than usual.
Nanny An sighed in her heart, the Queen Mother only had two sons, but the one she liked the most was Emperor Jing who looked very gentle and elegant. Emperor Jing seemed to have no temper in front of the Queen Mother, and she had to ask the Queen Mother to make the final decision on every little thing. Even if he marries a wife later, he will have to ask the Queen Mother for all matters in the palace.
The Queen Mother had a strong desire to control. What Emperor Jing did greatly pleased the Queen Mother, giving her a great sense of accomplishment and a feeling of being deeply needed and relied upon.
The Prince Regent was different. He was taciturn and didn't like to cause trouble to others. He did all the big and small things himself and never bothered the Queen Mother. The queen mother wanted to intervene and be his master, but all attempts were rejected by the regent. Or just stand there expressionless, listening to the Queen Mother's reprimands, not being able to argue, but not taking it seriously, and just going my own way.
The Queen Mother was disgusted by the regent's disobedience. She didn't like this feeling of losing control.
A heart is biased toward Emperor Jing.
The bigger reason is that Emperor Jing's accession to the throne means that the Queen Mother has more say in the government affairs.
Therefore, the Queen Mother often said in the ear of the late emperor: "Your Majesty, after a war in the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is now in a period of peace and prosperity. Haiyan and rivers are clear. There is no need for a hegemon to dominate the world. Instead, we need a benevolent king who cares about the people and develops scholars, farmers, industry and commerce. Ling'er will lead Dazhou to another peak, and he will be a wise king in the future, even if his abilities are limited."
"Xuan'er is cold-blooded and has a deep mind. Such a character has always become a tyrant in history, and eventually leads to the destruction of the country. He is like a god in using soldiers, brave and good at fighting. He is a sharp weapon for the country. If he is placed at the border to guard it, he can intimidate the other three countries. , Dare not attack Dazhou."
"Ling'er and Xuan'er are brothers. They complement each other and will definitely be able to govern the Great Zhou Dynasty."
The late Emperor's favorite was Ji Xuan, who was talented in literature, military skills, brave and resourceful. Ji Ling has no independent opinion, and lacks a bloody spirit and a woman's benevolence. Compared with Ji Xuan, he is hard to catch up with.
"I am interested in Xuan'er. With him commanding the Great Zhou Dynasty, he may be able to fulfill the ancestor's great wish, and make the world a vassal, and all nations will come to court."
"Your Majesty, my concubine asked Xuan'er that he is not willing to inherit the throne and wants to assist his brother. Please don't embarrass Xuan'er and make the two brothers feud."
The late emperor feigned anger and said, "Are you accusing me of alienating brothers?"
"I don't dare."
The Queen Mother did not know what she whispered to the late Emperor, and there was a burst of harmonious laughter.
When Nanny An recalled this memory, she felt that the Queen Mother was extremely partial. Not only did he use Qi Min to make the regent voluntarily give up the throne, but he also turned against him and did not allow the regent to marry Qi Min. The end we have ended up is really our own fault.
Not only did she not reflect on it, but she also had the intention to eradicate it.
Royal family ties are indeed vulnerable in the face of power.
Naturally, Aunt An did not dare to make unreasonable opinions, but only dared to express her opinions in her heart. She calmed down her thoughts and handed the Queen Mother tea to rinse her mouth: "Do you want to go for a walk to eat?"
"Let's go." The Queen Mother resented Ji Xuan's viciousness and imprisoned her in the national temple. She also told Ji Ling to indulge in the way of immortality and ignore government affairs.
Now that Ji Xuan is poisoned, it is obviously impossible for Ji Ling to rule the country again after his death.
She needs to select a prince from among the royal heirs to cultivate at this time.
As for who this person is, the Queen Mother has not yet decided.
The Queen Mother walked out of the house and saw Ji Wufeng, dressed in regular clothes, walking with Ji Lin.
