2114 Conspiracy and calculation
The Winged King in the carriage fell into deep thought, to be honest, he really didn't want to get caught up in this kind of internal struggle, especially the battle for the heir that everyone avoided.
Although Xiao Lotian now has only one son, but the internal strife in the harem has gradually emerged, look at Xiao Letian's arrangement, he doesn't dare to announce the big news of Fu Yin'er's birth.
Why? It was not to try to stabilize the hearts of the Manchus, but to break with the Manchus in a rash manner before the Chinese people had sorted out their diplomatic relations with Europe, especially Britain, and could only promote an alliance between the Manchus and Britain in disguise.
At that time, not only will the fortress plan not be able to be carried out, but perhaps what awaits the Chinese will be a super war involving the British.
This is not alarmist, people in this era, especially Asians, attach great importance to the issue of heirs, and a politician who has no descendants or future generations who are not excellent is undoubtedly reassuring, because everyone knows that he can only be powerful for one generation.
People are rare in their seventies, and their lives are extremely short, especially for politicians, it takes a long time to learn to accumulate, and politicians generally shine after the age of forty.
It is conceivable that politicians of this age, even if they want to rebel, do not have much time left, and many kings are reluctant to use young courtiers, which may not be due to this consideration.
Generally speaking, a powerful minister, especially a powerful minister with military power, will definitely pay attention to the issue of his heirs, first analyze the age of the person, and then analyze the excellence of his descendants.
If the age is a little older and the offspring are not very good, then such a powerful court is still at ease, just like Zeng Guofan, Zeng Guoquan and others, who are very capable and loyal to the army.
However, their children did not really become great, which is also the more reassuring side of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. It's not that Zeng Guofan's heirs are not excellent, but that those people are not the material that can be crowned.
Being a middle-level official or a scholar or a Confucian or something is quite competent, but they really want to be able to touch the country's important weapons on a par with the marshal, and they don't have such skills.
What the Manchus are most afraid of is not only Xiao Letian's Western kung fu and undefeated prestige, but what they are more afraid of is Xiao Letian's age, he is only in his early thirties to have such a career, and it will be worth giving him another thirty years of development?
If Xiao Letian breaks the big news of the birth of a son at this time, then all people with different intentions in the world will have to think carefully.
From the heart of the dragon, the Chinese don't love from the heart of the dragon?
"Trouble, what trouble, but this trouble can't be put off......" Winged King sighed and said to himself.
To tell the truth, Hu Niu found the Wing King and asked him to assist Fu Yin'er, Shi Dakai really had a premonition about this, of course, this was also one thing he tried his best to avoid.
How can there be family affection in the king's harem? The scene of cannibalism in the kingdom of heaven is still vivid, and it is not impossible for Xiao Letian to have a few more sons in the future.
Can you mix it up to yourself?
Even if there is a battle between the princes and princes, he can not pull the bias, but there are not a few direct conflicts between the emperor and the crown prince in history!
It is not without precedent for being forced to be the emperor, who dares to guarantee that the milk tiger will not dare to challenge the authority of the tiger? If father and son kill each other, then the Wing King will really sit on wax.
The young Wang Junlan looked at the prince whose expression changed repeatedly, and he could also guess what the Wing King was worried about.
His eyes rolled several times, and he suddenly whispered, "Lord Wang, there may be something wrong with what I said...... But if you choke in your throat and don't vomit, it's unpleasant!"
"But it doesn't matter, there's no outsider here......" Wing King laughed.
"Lord Wang, today's words come out of my mouth, into the ears of the two of you, I won't admit anything when I go out of this door!"
Wang Junlan smiled slightly: "I think it's better for the prince to agree to Mrs. Hu! Not only because of the friendship between the second lady and you, but because you are the prince's uncle, you can't watch the two of you be wronged, right?"
"In the final analysis, the Chinese are still the Führer's, so in the future, they will still be the prince's! Now the Führer doesn't know what medicine to take, or what strategy to deliberately use, whether he lives or dies and does not ascend the throne, what should Mrs. Tiger think at this time?"
"She can only feel at ease if she enlists the support of you old people!"
Speaking of this, Wang Junlan suddenly paused for a moment, thought for more than ten seconds, and finally gritted his teeth and said ruthlessly: "Lord Wang, Mrs. Tiger's olive branch, you still have to take it, the prince can not get on this boat, you have to get on!"
"Why?" Fang Guan asked.
"Because you are the Wing King! If you don't get on the prince's ship and don't show your support for the prince, what will others think of you? But don't forget, now even the royal bureau and Chief of Staff Xiao have begun to show their loyalty in front of the Führer......"
"Because they all know that Lord Wang, you are a big banner in the Chinese forces, and you are a big man who can keep pace with the head of state, the veteran forces of the Heavenly Kingdom are still very strong in the Chinese clan at the moment!"
"You don't have dissenting intentions, but who can guarantee that others don't?"
"You don't jump on the prince's ship...... Is it because you want to drive your own boat?"
When the Wing King heard this, all the hairs on his back stood up, this was still a very terrifying possibility.
Yes, you Shi Dakai himself has the prestige and ability to rebel, and there are more people in the Chinese who are afraid of you, and there are also people who doubt you.
In the entire Chinese family, only he Shi Dakai must support Xiao Letian to ascend the throne, and he must also support the crown prince to ascend the throne, because this is an attitude of Shi Dakai to the entire Chinese family that he will not rebel.
Others may have other options, such as a federation, a republic, a constitutional monarchy, etc., but the Wing King has no choice, and he must use this attitude to dispel the doubts of the entire Chinese high-top.
After a cold sweat, the Wing King clasped his fists with both hands, "Little brother, great talent......! Daigo empowerment, wake up the dreamer with a word!"
"Don't say anything, I sent a telegram to Mrs. Tiger, and the gifts I bought for Fu Yin'er in Europe, and I won't send them back with the envoys, I will find a merchant ship to send them back in advance......"
"In the future, if Fusang has a bite to eat for me, I am also willing to go to Fusang to relax......"
Wang Junlan straightened up and hugged her fists in return, "That's right, the prince can think like this, it's really a blessing for my Chinese family! Of course, it's also the blessing of the prince......"
All the conspiracies and tricks, those small private calculations, have been revealed at this moment, and Fang Guan's mouth is holding back and her eyes are red again, because she knows that there are so many conspiracies to strangle and so many forces to calculate......
I can't screw it at all, and I still want to stay in Europe freely? That's a dream......
On the banks of the Thames, several horse-drawn carriages galloped in the night, and I don't know how many people were sleepless this night!
