To say that Sun He is a fool is definitely wrong.

Especially in terms of reading and machine learning, he is quite commendable.

His flaw is that he has a serious lack of understanding of the cruelty of court battles and palace battles.

In other words, he has not yet adapted to his status as the prince, and the fact that Mrs. Pan's entry into the palace has caused his mother to fall out of favor.

In the past, when Sun Deng was here, Sun and his sons favored other princes based on their mother's status, and the rewards they received every time far exceeded those of other princes.

Even the crown prince Sun Deng expressed his intention to give up his position to him several times. One can imagine Sun He's status in the palace in the early years.

After succeeding Sun Deng as the crown prince, his rising status inevitably made Sun He a little inflated and gave him an illusion:

When I was not the prince, I was so respectful and favored. Now that I have become the prince, who can be more respectful and favored than me?

He has been pampered since he was a child, so this is an important factor for him to succeed Sun Deng as the prince.

But it was precisely because he was too pampered or too protected that Sun He was too naive in political struggle.

Originally this was nothing.

After all, the prince is the crown prince after all, and he has his own assistants and tutors such as the prince, Taifu, and the prince's young tutor.

As long as he is taught well, the prince will naturally grow up slowly.

But coincidentally, the prince's Taifu Kanze and the prince's young Fu Xue Zong, who were originally assisting the prince, died last year, a few months earlier than Prime Minister Gu Yong.

Once these two masters left, the only people left to teach the prince were Cai Ying, Zhang Chun, Feng Ru, Yan Wei and other Confucian scholars.

When it comes to studying scriptures and educating people, they definitely have no problem.

But it would be too difficult for them to teach the prince how to fight for power and favor in the palace.

Apart from them, the people who can always be with the prince are basically the second and third generations.

Many of them wanted to be invited privately to gain honor, and they were eager to quarrel with King Lu every day in front of the prince to show their loyalty.

Even those with better knowledge, such as Gu Tan, were radicals who protected the crown prince and drove King Lu away. They would not give up until King Lu was driven out of Jianye.

Let alone other people, how would they know to remind the prince what he should and should not do?

As for the important officials in the court who supported the prince, such as Lu Xun, Wu Can and others, it was impossible for them to follow the prince every day and remind him of what he needed to pay attention to.

The combination of various factors, coupled with the ruthlessness and power of the opponent, directly hit the prince's destiny, forcing Mrs. Wang to die of fear and worry.

Sun He was scolded by Sun Quan and cut off from all contacts with officials. Then his mother was forced to death, and he woke up like a dream:

His position is not as stable as he imagined.

After losing his wings and suddenly losing his mother, Sun He was suddenly helpless in the palace.

Sun He, who had been pampered since childhood, had never experienced any setbacks, and was extremely inexperienced, lost Sun Quan's favor, and his shortcomings began to be magnified infinitely.

The wisdom and insight I had in the past were all gone now.

Facing the political turmoil, Sun He became panicked and frightened, without any ideas.

He even became a little nervous, always suspicious, and worried that his position as prince would be dethroned.

The prince and King Lu were punished equally. Sun He felt like the sky was falling, but for King Lu, it was good news from heaven.

For King Lu and his party, what does His Majesty’s edict mean?

Does this mean that in His Majesty’s heart, King Lu is actually still tied with the Crown Prince?

No!

This was a hint that they would continue to criticize the prince.

The prince lives in the palace, under the eyes of His Majesty, and his every move may alarm His Majesty at any time.

Your Majesty has issued an order, and there will definitely be no way to contact officials outside.

But King Lu is different.

Thanks to the tireless advice from the prince's party, King Lu had to move out of the palace and live in the palace of King Lu.

King Lu's actions were much freer and more convenient than those of the prince.

We can't communicate openly or secretly, but we can't tell in secret.

As for Princess Quan, the main promoter of this sacrificial event, she never dreamed of it:

With such a move, he could actually drive Mrs. Wang, who had been his sworn enemy for decades, to death.

And it was within just a few days.

Feeling that she had finally vented her anger on her mother, the princess was so inspired that she decided to go all out and throw the prince off the stage.

"The four families of Wu County are the leaders of the Jiangdong family. Nowadays, the children of the Zhang family are no longer in official positions, leaving only the three families of Lu, Gu and Zhu."

Princess Quan and her husband Quan Cong counted on their fingers:

"And Lu Xun was reprimanded by His Majesty in public in the court and is now bedridden at home."

"Gu Yong is dead. The second son originally offended His Majesty, but has lost His Majesty's heart. They also support the crown prince, so there is no chance that His Majesty will offend him, so there is nothing to worry about."

As the mastermind behind this incident, Princess Quan knew Sun Quan's thoughts at this time far better than anyone else.

Mrs. Wang is dead. Can Zhang Xiu, who invited the prince to rest in his house, be safe and sound?

Dreaming!

Zhang Xiu couldn't escape, which means Gu Cheng couldn't escape either.

If Zhang and Gu were found guilty of falsely claiming military merit, how could we explain Gu Tan, who said in court that he was "too greedy to talk"?

Isn't this false accusation and slander?

From this point of view, Lu Xun, who confessed on the spot in the court, was the wisest.

"Only the Zhu family," Princess Quan said with great confidence, "I want my little sister to marry that Zhu Zifan (i.e. Zhu Ju). I will go and persuade her right away."

"I have avenged my mother, and she will be happy. I asked her to find out what Zhu Zifan said. If she can win over the Zhu family, why worry about the big deal?"

The incident at the Ancestral Temple sacrifice gave Princess Quan great confidence and even gave her some kind of ambition in her heart.

I remember someone from the Han Dynasty, Feng, once said that women should not give way to men.

I think that Feng Mingwen is a famous general of his generation and one of the most talented people in the world. It is really insightful to be able to say these words.

Why can a man do it but a woman cannot?

Aren't these talented people, talented people, and pillars of the country all being manipulated by themselves?

Looking at the ambitious and overly excited Princess Quan, Quan Cong actually became a little worried:

"Your Majesty ordered the Second Palace not to have contact with the officials. There was a lot of criticism in the court. The governor's envoy Yang Di recently wrote a letter stating the harm of this move."

"If Your Majesty obstructs the opinions of the ministers and withdraws your order, what will you do? Why don't you just wait and see for the time being?"

Princess Quan couldn't listen, but smiled and said:

"I am a woman, but I am not afraid. As a man, why is Alang so worried?"

"Alang, don't worry. These days, I have been visiting the palace every day to attend to illness. How can I not know what His Majesty is thinking?"

After saying this, he asked his servants to prepare the car and drive to Zhu's Mansion.

At this time, the State of Wu had high hopes for the cavalry army that had been built up with so much hard work.

As the commander-in-chief of the cavalry army, Zhu Ju naturally had great responsibilities and was stationed in the army day and night to train soldiers.

At this time, only Princess Zhu was guarding the Zhu Mansion in Jianye City.

When Princess Zhu learned that her sister had arrived, she was so happy that she went out to greet her in person:

"How can my sister be free to come today?"

The two sisters grew up together in the palace, and later married important officials in the court. Coupled with their mother's death, the two sisters saw each other less and less.

How could Princess Zhu be unhappy when she saw Princess Quan coming to visit her?

The two sisters went into the house and sat down, and had some private conversations.

How could Princess Zhu be unhappy when she saw Princess Quan coming to visit her?

The two sisters went into the house and sat down, and had some private conversations.

As he spoke, he inevitably mentioned the recent situation.

Princess Quan asked:

"Your Majesty is ill in bed. Why hasn't my little sister visited the palace recently?"

Princess Zhu quickly shouted:

"Sister, you have wronged me. When I learned that His Majesty was ill, I asked for permission to enter the palace early. However, His Majesty didn't see anyone at that time, so I had nothing to do."

"His Majesty's condition improved a few days ago, so I went there again. My sister was by His Majesty's side at that time, didn't she also see me?"

"It's not like my sister doesn't know that I am the only one who can look after everything in the Zhu Mansion. Unlike my sister, I can go out at any time."

Zhu Ju's two sons, Zhu Xiong and Zhu Sun, had both entered the training camp of the Han cavalry army, so they followed Zhu Ju in the camp at this time.
