The eldest son of the red mansion

Li Deshan paved the imperial decree, dipped the brush in ink, and waited there.

After Jia Ke closed her eyes and thought it through, she said: "The noble concubine Xue is a virtuous Su De, intelligent and agile, dignified and gracious, respectful and caring, has served the palace for a long time, has a sensitive nature and wisdom, and does not exceed courtesy. , to take temporary photos of Empress Fengxi and take charge of the harem."

Jia Ke read at the top, and Li Deshan wrote at the bottom. When Jia Ke finished reading the last word, Li Deshan also wrote the imperial decree.

After Li Deshan finished writing, he hurriedly picked up the imperial decree and came to Jia Ke, knelt down on the ground, unfolded the imperial decree, and let Jia Ke see the content on it.

Jia Ke opened her eyes, looked down, saw that there was nothing wrong, and then said in a low voice, "Use the seal."

Li Deshan didn't dare to be negligent, and put the imperial decree on the table again, then took out the emperor's treasure from the side and used ink pads, and then firmly covered the imperial decree.

Jia Ke saw that the decree of the holy duty had been completed, and then Li Deshan said: "You go to deliver the decree in person to make the momentum bigger."

Although Li Deshan didn't understand Jia Ke's intention, he still respectfully held the imperial decree and left the Hall of Mental Cultivation to inherit.

Seeing Li Deshan go out, Jia Ke's eyes became darker.

Since ancient times, the succession of the dynasties has always been based on the eldest son. Although Jia Zhi has the blood of the previous dynasty, this matter is kept a secret. Except for these people in the Jia family, few princes and ministers know about it.

Therefore, Shang Jiazhi is naturally the best candidate for the crown prince, because Jia Zhi is the former queen's legitimate son and Jia Ke's eldest son, and he is the best candidate to inherit the throne due to emotion and reason.

But because of Qin Keqing, Jia Ke has a lot of concerns about Jia Zhi's succession to the throne. Others may not know Qin Keqing's life experience, but Jia Zhi, the son, will definitely know.

If Jia Zhi ascends the throne and sits in the palace, will he reuse the officials of the previous dynasty, or will he rehabilitate those relatives of the former dynasty who were killed by him.

No matter what, Jia Ke couldn't see this. In Jia Ke's view, this was a betrayal of himself.

What did I kill these people for? Isn't it just so that future generations of emperors can be safe and sound.

If the emperor of later generations sold himself, the founding emperor, in order to gain some fame, then Jia Ke would absolutely not agree.

Besides, Jia Ke is not the only son now, so why must King Chu inherit the throne?

Isn't King Jiazhi of Chu the eldest son?Then I will set up an opponent for you.

So Jia Ke named Xue Baochai the imperial concubine. From a legal point of view, Jia Ke could make Xue Baochai another queen at any time.

And now that there is no queen, the imperial concubine is no different from the queen.

In this way, Xue Baochai's son is also a legitimate son, and with Xue Baochai standing in front of him, you, Jia Zhi, should be honest for a while.

Only now did Jia Ke understand why those wise emperors in the past were hesitant and capricious in dealing with their heirs.

If it was something else, these emperors would naturally be able to deal with things calmly, but in terms of family affairs, so many sons were their own flesh and blood, which made the emperor's judgment have serious personal emotional factors.

Jia Ke sighed, it is difficult to conquer the country, it is even more difficult to sit on the country, and it is even more difficult to choose a person who can defend the country.

Not to mention Jia Ke sighing here, but Li Deshan immediately gathered a lot of people under him after he got the imperial decree, and then let these people beat and beat, and followed him all the way to Xue Baochai's Chengqian Palace.

As a result, before Li Deshan arrived at Chengqian Palace, the news that Xue Baochai was conferred the title of imperial concubine had already spread throughout the palace.

When Li Deshan arrived at Chengqian Palace, he saw Xue Baochai's close female Shi Huangying (Ying'er), who had already been waiting there with the palace maids and eunuchs.

Seeing Ying'er waiting there, Li Deshan hurriedly stepped forward and smiled at her and said, "Why do you have to come out and wait?"

"I heard that the emperor's decree is to come to Chengqian Palace, so I came out early to meet Eunuch Li."

Li Deshan smiled at Ying'er, and Huang Ying'er smiled back at him, and the two of them kept silent.

Chapter 751 The Northern Expedition

Li Deshan followed Yinger into Chengqian Palace.

In the main hall of Chengqian Palace, Xue Baochai had already put on her makeup and waited there.

Li Deshan held the imperial decree high and entered the main hall, and instead of saluting Xue Baochai, he said to Xue Baochai, "Long Live God has a decree, and the imperial concubine Xue will accept the decree."

Xue Baochai hurriedly led all the eunuchs and maids in the palace to kneel down on the ground.

"Concubine Xue Baochai, take the order."

Next, Li Deshan opened the imperial decree and read: "Following the heaven and carrying the emperor, the imperial edict said: The noble concubine Xue, virtuous and virtuous, intelligent and quick, dignified and ruthless, respectful and attentive, has served the palace for a long time, has a sensitive nature and resourcefulness, and is not out of courtesy. That is to say, she will be enfeoffed as the imperial concubine, temporarily photograph the empress Fengxi, and take charge of the harem. Hereby."

After Xue Baochai heard Li Deshan's declaration, a stone finally fell to the ground in his heart.

"The concubine Xue Baochai accepted the order, thank the Lord for his kindness, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live."

Next, Li Deshan put the imperial decree in Xue Baochai's hands, and then hurried forward to help Xue Baochai up.

"Slave congratulates the empress."

Xue Baochai was also smiling all over her face, winking like Yinger next to her, and the little maid immediately took a kit from the palace man next to her and put it in Li Deshan's hand.

"Just a little bit, Eunuch Li took it back and drank a few cups of tea."

"That slave is disrespectful."

Afterwards, Li Deshan and Xue Baochai said a few more polite words, and withdrew on the grounds that there was still something to do in the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

After Li Deshan left, Xue Baochai changed into casual clothes again and came to the main hall of Chengqian Palace again.

At this time, Xue Baoqin also rushed over to congratulate Xue Baochai.

Xue Baochai nodded to Xue Baoqin, and then said to Ying'er beside her: "Although this palace is divided into imperial concubines by the emperor, there are still empress dowagers and two empress dowagers above, please tell the maids and eunuchs below not to be proud. Be more cautious from now on."

When Ying'er heard this, she was thrown a bucket of cold water. She thought that Xue Baochai was now the boss of the palace, and those under his command should also shake up.

Unexpectedly, Xue Baochai was already an imperial concubine, and she was still so cautious.

Not to mention that Xue Baochai is here to teach the maids and eunuchs a lesson.

Besides, in the study room at this time, King Jiazhi of Chu heard the news that Xue Baochai had been named imperial concubine, and was furious.

And his teacher Li Wenbin also frowned, and at the same time Li Wenbin felt a chill coiling around his back.

When I was in the study just now, Li Wenbin gave the emperor a compliment. At that time, Jia Ke still had a smile on his face, as if he didn't take this matter seriously.

As a result, just after Jia Ke returned to the Hall of Mental Cultivation, he announced such a decree. The meaning was already very obvious. This was because he was very dissatisfied with the matter of forcing the eunuch to write the daily routine just now.

At the same time, it is also a warning to King Jiazhi of Chu.

Li Wenbin heaved a long sigh when he thought of this, and it really is like accompanying a king like a tiger.He thought he knew Jia Ke's temper long ago, but he didn't expect Jia Ke to be moody now.

The news that Xue Baochai was conferred the title of imperial concubine soon spread throughout the capital.

These old foxes, ministers of civil and military affairs, have already seen what Jia Ke meant, because they were dissatisfied with Chu Wang Jia Zhi jumping up and down during this period of time.

As a result, those civil and military officials who had some contact with Jia Zhi, the king of Chu, immediately died down and never contacted Jia Zhi again.
