In the spring of the twenty-seventh year of Yonghe, Emperor Jingxuan suffered a stroke at a family banquet in the Imperial Garden, and a shocking storm began.
The third prince, Jing Zhengyuan, had always been low-key and tolerant. He studied military art in his study and watched the storm outside the palace walls. Everyone else said that he had no desire for power. Only he knew that every step in this deep palace was like walking on thin ice.
Shen Wanyi, the only daughter of the Minister of Rites, wore a plain green skirt and sang "Spring River Flowers and Moonlight Night", which made the spring scenery in the garden lose its color. She is both talented and beautiful, but also has a delicate heart. She never competes for favor, but she can always hand over the most critical chess piece in the most dangerous moments.
After the emperor fell ill, the queen and the virtuous concubine separated their power, and the courtiers took sides one after another. The eldest prince returned to Beijing forcefully, and the situation was tense. Between the third prince and the eldest prince, conspiracies, assassinations, and impeachments were staged in turn. The second prince sits on the wall and watches, the eldest princess and the consort Zhang Huailin seem to be neutral but have hidden secrets. The military veteran Yue Zhenbei is reluctant to express his position...
Jing Zhengyuan went from being passive and defensive, to taking steps step by step, to leveraging his own strength. Every life and death crisis made him understand a little more about the warmth and warmth of people's hearts. As for Shen Wanyi, he went from being a bystander, to offering advice and advice, to sharing adversities with him side by side. His words, "Although the spring scenery is good, only Wanyi can enter my heart" became his softest and hardest support.
Power and strategy are like chess, and the country is the game.
When the emperor was dying, he personally appointed him as his heir, but the true colors of his old allies gradually emerged.
This is a long game from seizing heirs to centralizing power, and it is also a long-term process from heartbeat to co-governance.
The spring scenery is entering the evening, and the country is with you.
