Chapter 466 When many people thought that the Empress Dowager was suppressing the Cao family, A Nian had already sensed that what the Empress Dowager wanted to do was definitely not just suppress the Cao family.
This kind of operation cannot be performed by any political veteran.
Moreover, it is a coincidence that the person who succeeded Earl Cao as governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang was Xie Yuan, a member of the Empress Dowager's family.
At first, Ah Nian had just arrived in the imperial capital and did not pay attention to this matter.
Looking back now, Ah Nian thought that this matter did not seem to be the handiwork of the Empress Dowager.
Because A Nian's judgment about the Queen Mother is that she is a mature politician who cares very much about her reputation.
It is not unusual for Earl Cao to be transferred back to the imperial capital.
It is a very normal political method.
A Nian guessed that the fact that this matter could be done so smoothly was probably due to the cabinet's smooth flow.
The courtiers never wanted their relatives to be in power, and because of Prime Minister Wei's temperament, he might have contributed to this matter, or he had a tacit understanding with the Empress Dowager.
Earl Cao was transferred back to the imperial capital from his position of actual power, and in turn, the nephew of the Empress Dowager was placed in Earl Cao's previous position as governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang.
This is not like the pattern of the Queen Mother, but it seems that the cabinet has tricked the Queen Mother.
However, from the perspective of the Empress Dowager, it was impossible not to see the cabinet's small tricks.
The key is that the Empress Dowager did not reject the appointment in the end.
In many cases, the Queen Mother was an unpredictable person.
However, what A Nian can be sure of is that this empress has mature political wisdom, and although this empress is magnanimous, she is not a saint after all.
This can be seen from the concubine Hu Gui.
This concubine had been the empress dowager for decades.
It was said that she was the empress dowager's mother-in-law.
Concubine Hu Gui had a lot of grievances with the empress dowager's mother's family.
Therefore, many years later, the concubine was still the empress dowager before her death.
The empress dowager's position was immediately reduced to that of the emperor's concubine after her death, and she was eventually buried in the concubine garden instead of the mausoleum.
One can only imagine the methods of such a mature, tolerant, and powerful politician.
The Empress Dowager was able to tolerate Concubine Hu Gui for many years.
First, Concubine Hu Gui was the elder in terms of generation.
No one dared to touch her while her son was alive.
After his son passed away, his mother's family still had her natal nephew Nan'an Hou as the general of the dynasty.
Nan'an Hou Yi's daughter is the concubine of the current King of Chu, and the King of Chu's lineage has a very good relationship with the Queen Mother.
As for Concubine Hu Gui's daughter, Princess Kang, this eldest princess is simply senior enough to be the aunt of the Empress Dowager.
Even if the Empress Dowager does not take this generation seriously, Princess Wenkang's husband, Lao Yong'anhou, is someone who understands very well.
When he was in power, he was the most powerful person in the dynasty.
Even though he is now an official, he has four sons. , the eldest son is now the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, the second son takes the title of marquis and is appointed as the general of the Imperial Guard.
The third son is stationed in Nan'an Prefecture.
He made great achievements in war and was awarded the title of Pingyuan Marquis.
Although the fourth son is mediocre, his official performance is stable.
It can be imagined how prominent the eldest princess's husband's family is.
A Nian analyzed that this was one of the reasons why the Empress Dowager was willing to tolerate Concubine Hu Gui.
But what about Queen Mother Cao?
Does Empress Dowager Cao have the weight of Empress Dowager Hu Gui?
Now, does the Cao family have such a family background?
Is there such a person in the Cao family?
The Cao family came from a humble background, and the most prominent one was the Empress Dowager Cao and her father, Earl Cao Bin Cao, who was the second-rank governor of Jiangsu and Zhejiang.
However, now Count Cao has been transferred from the position of governor and has no actual duties.
Therefore, Ana Nian analyzed that even if she gave birth to the emperor's son, in terms of strength, Empress Dowager Cao could not be compared with Concubine Hu Gui at that time.
Some people may say that Concubine Hu Gui's reliance was not available all at once.

But, the key point is, Without these things to rely on, Concubine Cao Gui behaved like a cat.
The imperial concubine did not become famous until her son, Emperor Taizong, came into power.
Today, Empress Cao is People like Ah Nian, who are not related to him, wish that the little emperor could be an orphan.
Moreover, the Empress Dowager confirmed the charge of disrespect and unfilial piety by demoting the Cao family twice.
The Empress Dowager was not a capricious and ignorant woman.
Thinking of this, A Nian felt that the Cao family's bad days were already foreseeable.
Then, some of the things in the palace that Sister Jin told him further confirmed A-Nian's guess.
He Zijin would go to the palace every now and then to teach the princess and princess some fitness boxing techniques, so he got to know a lot about things in the palace.
When the Empress Dowager became angry, the Empress Dowager Cao resorted to crying, making trouble, and hanging herself.
She knelt down outside Ci'en Palace to plead guilty.
Even though she was the birth mother of the little emperor, she wanted to use this method to deal with a politician who had been in power for many years. , that would be too underestimated the wisdom of the Queen Mother.
The Empress Dowager made such remarks that the Empress Dowager Cao did not dare to kneel down.
When He Zijin came home, he said, "Empress Cao is really not a real person.
That kind of method that makes you unable to kneel down is not an admission of fault, but a threat."
A Nian was curious, "What did the Empress Dowager say?"
"How do I know?
I heard a few words about this matter occasionally.
There is no need to ask at all.
Don't talk about the Queen Mother.
It's me.
If you have such a daughter-in-law, I will obey you only if you die.
This kind of long kneeling is not worth it.
What?
, It’s a joke.
How embarrassing.”
He Zijin always believed that although the Queen Mother was able to get to the position of Queen Mother, she had a high status in the palace when the late emperor was still there.
No matter how smart you are, there shouldn't be any problem.
As a result, this empress really doesn’t look like a smart person.
Or, it is true that when people suddenly reach a high position, they lose their sense of proportion.
Anyway, He Zijin was extremely cautious when he went to the palace to teach.
Although the Empress Dowager didn't show any bad mood, she told He Zijin that it was impossible for a daughter-in-law like Xiu Lai to be in such a bad mood.
Therefore, even if the Empress Dowager left her to talk, He Zijin would always tell interesting things, such as how the twins fell in love with writing letters to their families, and to brag, they copied the same letter four times, which made their hands hurt from exhaustion.
The Empress Dowager smiled, "Children are like this.
They look small, but they are actually growing up.
When King Han was a child, he was very good at saving money to live.
When the late Emperor was young, every time he endorsed something, if I didn't praise him, I would I’ll be out of energy all day long.”
Concubine Qi smiled, "Speaking of compliments, A Yi also has an interesting story.
One time, A Yi was very happy when he returned to the palace.
I also said, why are you so happy?
I ate half a bowl more for lunch.
Later I asked him , this child is shy, and he’s too embarrassed to say it directly, don’t be awkward He said that his ancestors praised him for his good handwriting.
I saw that his ancestors praised him for his delicious food.
This child is usually picky and worried, so I also learned to praise his homework. .
It was useful at first, but then it was no longer useful, and I was told that my praise was inappropriate.”
Everyone couldn't help but smile.

The Empress Dowager said, "A Yi's calligraphy is indeed good.
I heard that he has to hang his wrists to practice calligraphy every day.
If he can persist, our royal family will have one more vassal king who is good at calligraphy in the future.
It is also a good story. " Concubine Qi smiled and said, "I think he is also careful in writing this."
The Empress Dowager said, "The late emperor's handwriting is good, and they all say that the words are like the person he is.
Although this is not entirely true, there is some truth in it."
After saying that, she ordered the female official to find a few posts that the late emperor had visited when he was young, and ordered people to reward them.
The second grandson Mu Yi.
Concubine Qi quickly stood up and thanked her son for the reward.
The Empress Dowager always leveled a bowl of water and said with a smile, "Sanlang loves painting, and I got some high-quality paints here.
Shiro likes music, and I have a good piano in my library, so I can give it to Shiro.
Wulang loves bows and arrows, riding and shooting.
In the past, when the Western Barbarian king came to court, he presented several good swords as tribute, but he was young.
"Let Zhao Taimei keep it for him first and give it to him when he is older.
Liulang likes to read history.
I have a set of historical books of the past dynasties annotated by the emperor and sent them to Liulang."
He also told Liulang's biological mother Wei Taizhaoyi, "This set of books is extremely rare.
Rokuro needs to be careful when browsing."
Wei Tai Zhaoyi came from a scholarly background and knew the value of this book as soon as he heard it.
He quickly said, "My ancestors rewarded him with whatever they wanted.
Such a precious book, even my concubines are reluctant to part with it."
As soon as I hear what other people say, I know they are of a high standard, and their words are kind and grateful.
The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "Books are for people to read.
As long as you read it carefully, you will live up to the book."
Wei Tai Zhaoyi stood up and thanked her son for the reward, her brows filled with joy.
Finally, the Empress Dowager rewarded the Seventh Prince, who had just entered school, with a box of ancient ink.
The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "This ink is said to be a collection of the previous royal family.
After the founding of the country, Emperor Taizu served as an assistant to the Holy Prince Consort, that is, My grandfather loved ink, and Emperor Taizu gave it to him.
He probably didn’t want to use it, so I’m very good at ink, so I gave it to Lao Qi.”
The birth mother of the Seventh Prince has an ordinary status, but she is a beautiful woman with neither a prominent family background nor a prominent position.
She is not much better than a transparent person in front of the Empress Dowager, but she is extremely respectful.
She wakes up every morning and dusk, even if the Empress Dowager The Queen Mother is missing, and she has not been left alone for a day.
Seeing that the Empress Dowager treated her son as the same as all the emperors and grandchildren, Mrs.
Wu was surprised and happy, and she respectfully thanked the Empress Dowager for the reward.
After having a grandson, it is natural to have a granddaughter.
The eldest princess got an ancient painting from the previous dynasty.
Princess Jiachun got a set of purple clay teapots that Empress Dowager Cheng loved in the past.
The second princess was still in her infancy, and the Empress Dowager did not ignore this.
The granddaughter said to Empress Dowager Su, "There are some books that I read when I was young.
Although the second princess is still young, there are all girls in our family who don't read.
Let her read it later.
You can keep it for her first."
Empress Dowager Su accepted the reward for her daughter and said with a smile, "The emperor's grandson and granddaughter have all received the reward, so why did the queen mother forget the emperor alone?
I don't agree with this."
The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "The emperor is rich all over the world, but I can't think of anything to reward him."

Queen Mother Su smiled and said, "Even if you are rich all over the world, how can the rewards from your elders be the same?
Just like A Yi, who only likes to be praised by his mother, the emperor has the same admiration for his mother."
The Empress Dowager thought for a while and said with a smile, "When Emperor Taizu went to fight in the world and founded the country, he got a pair of dragon and phoenix swords.
It is said that this pair of dragon and phoenix swords were forged by the skilled craftsmen of Emperor Wu of the Dafeng Dynasty.
According to unofficial history Records say that Emperor Feng Wu once gave the Feng Sword to his beloved, and the two of them grew old together.
Now, let’s give this pair of swords to the emperor.”
Empress Dowager Su smiled and said, "The emperor will definitely respond to the empress's words in the future, and he and the empress will sing the harp and harp together, and they will be in love for the rest of their lives."
The Empress Dowager nodded, "I'm also looking forward to this."
After that, the Empress Dowager looked at He Zijin and said with a smile, "It's better to come early than to come by chance.
You are here by chance today.
A pair of twins in your family, a pair of twins, are excellent signs."
She rewarded Ah Ye.
In the new book of the Four Treasures of the Study, A Xi received a pair of amethyst lotus hairpins, while the twins received a pair of gold and jade playthings.
He Zijin was flattered and quickly stood up to thank him.
The Empress Dowager said warmly, "In my age, I have experienced a lot since the Taizong Dynasty.
Now, seeing that my children have grown up, I feel happy.
Speaking of which, what is a good life?
Well, it’s a good day to be happy.”
He Zijin went home and distributed things to each of the children.
He Zijin kept A Xi's share for her first, and said to A Nian in the evening, "If there are still people who can't say that the Empress Dowager is a good person, it must be That person is sick."
In order to prove that she was "not sick", A-Nian did not dare to say anything against the Empress Dowager.
Of course, A-Nian himself didn’t feel bad about the Empress Dowager.
A-Nian also said, “How come there are gifts for the emperor’s grandson and granddaughter, including twins and twins?”
He Zijin said, "This is the Empress Dowager taking care of our family.
She loves her as much as she loves her house."
He Zijin was deeply moved, "There is sometimes a difference between this person's status and status.
But being a human being does not depend on status.
A status like the Empress Dowager is not suitable for the emperor's grandsons and granddaughters.
Concern about appearance, what each person is good at, The Empress Dowager can tell you what she likes, which shows that she cares about the emperor's grandson and granddaughter."
He Zijin added, "The Empress Dowager, not to mention being busy with government affairs every day, is still the grandmother of the next generation.
Not to mention anyone else, if it’s Empress Cao, she knows who it is.”
This is the gap.
Sometimes, the difference between people really does not lie in their status.
After Sister Zijin finished sighing, A-Nian asked in detail about the Ci'en Palace.
After hearing what the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager had rewarded everyone, A-Nian was convinced and secretly thought that the late Emperor had said that the Empress Dowager had never done anything wrong.
Woolen cloth.
Not only is this a politician who has never made any mistakes, it should be said that this is a politician who cannot be faulted at all.
Alas, Ah Nian was glad that the late emperor had written a letter asking him to submit it to the Empress Dowager when necessary, and he had repeatedly told him to follow the Empress Dowager's route.
At this moment, Anianfang completely understood the late emperor's goodwill.
