Chapter 497: Proposal

It is still a sentence that a country cannot be without a king for a day, and on the third day of His Majesty's funeral, the ministers have already determined the new king. Now, the entire Dayong, the most suitable member of the royal family to become the new monarch, is only King Qi Yongye.

As for the fifth prince squatting in the workshop of the Beijing Branch, he has clearly rejected the proposal to ascend the throne.

However, as soon as Yongye ascended the throne, he faced the fact that Lingzhou and an entire state fell into the hands of the Qi State. Eternal Night, where there is no way, the first thing that comes to mind is the Capital Academy. Compared with King Yan, he and the Five Emperor Brothers have almost no power, and the only people who can ask for help are those people.

Because of this, people related to the academy quickly became celebrities in the court. Nowadays, there are many more people who often come to Hengqingtao than before.

It's just that the current Hengqing has no energy to deal with these people at all.

The Emperor of the Eternal Night, who has just ascended the throne, is different from the first emperor. The first emperor is a gentle person, which is already a headache, but the eternal night emperor is still a person who doesn't understand anything. His Majesty is a kind of learning, and the only one who has really received this kind of education is the first emperor who has always been the crown prince.

And the Emperor of the Eternal Night, as the youngest son, although he was not deliberately taught to be crooked, was just an ordinary child. Let this kid, go and be an official, maybe, can do quite well.

However, let him be His Majesty, no one can really teach him.

These things are things that Hengqing must face, if Yongye can't become a qualified majesty, then Dayong's qi has come to an end. No matter what dynasty Rong Bai is, as long as she can live a good life, she doesn't care. He is a Dayong person, and his thoughts of loyalty and patriotism have been engraved into his mind since he was a child, and it is impossible to change at all.

Therefore, when everyone came to visit Hengqing, Hengqing visited the homes of the two prime ministers.

The two prime ministers are old, if it weren't for this time, so many things happened, and the two prime ministers would have planned to return to their hometowns. However, the current chaotic court is really not reassuring.

Hengqing visited the left phase first, and the left attached great importance to Hengqing, and because of this, when Hengqing was worried about the future that promised you, the left minister was also worried about this.

Zuo Xiang has not been in contact with Yongye for a long time, and it seems that he is a very well-behaved child, but there are many well-behaved children, and there are really few who can really bear the entire Dayong.

His Majesty in the past, although his temperament was a little softer. But there are still means and connections, at least to deter those who have other ideas.

"Now, the most critical thing is King Yan." Hengqing cares about Dayong's future, but Zuo Xiang cares more about the present. As a prime minister, the intelligence system in the hands of the left prime minister should not be underestimated.

Not to mention, King Yan, who has no brains, has made such a big deal. If there is no way to know, then there is no need for Zuo Xiang to stay.

"If Lingzhou is lost, it can be recaptured, but if you really succeed for King Yan, then Dayong will really die." After all, he is still old and knowledgeable, and Zuo Xiang doesn't look at anything else, but looking at King Yan's approach, he knows that once this person takes power, Dayong will die.

Hengqing sighed.

A large part of the defenders of the capital are people from the child's world, and when the child's true face was revealed, those people also disappeared with the child's world. Therefore, now in the entire capital, counting the frontiers who came back to practice martial arts, there are less than 50,000 defenders.

However, King Yan had an army of 100,000.

50,000,000 is not a one-to-two number. There are 50,000 more troops, and it is completely possible to suppress the defenders of the capital in terms of momentum, and the real battlefield is a battle of momentum, so no one knows how the defenders who lost from the momentum can win.

"Prime Minister You." Hengqing clasped his hands into fists: "If Dayong can't survive this catastrophe, then no matter how much the official says, it's empty talk, but if Dayong can survive this catastrophe, please ask the prime minister to pay tribute to him a few years later." ”

"You can actually see that the prime minister wants to be a scholar." Zuo Xiang looked at Hengqing with a smile in his eyes.

"Well, it's only for a year or two."

"Thank you."

"There are not many people like you who care about their home and country. If it is a gentleman, you can also assist Your Majesty in this way, why bother to make such a suggestion. Zuo Xiang looked at Hengqing, and the more he looked, the more he liked this person. If you really need someone to assist the new emperor, Hengqing is obviously more suitable than yourself.

He was old and didn't have much time left to assist a young monarch.

"Your Majesty has no children, no wife, and the only one who is very close to Your Majesty is Princess Qingti." Hearing that Zuo Xiang mentioned Princess Qingti, Hengqing was a little strange. Even if it was strange, Hengqing continued to listen: "Fu Xiang and I are both old, and it is not suitable for us to follow Your Majesty all the time. Ang'er and the boys of the Fu family, you also know each other, so you naturally know that although they have some ability, they are not enough to become the pillars of the court. ”

Hengqing's eyes widened, and he seemed to understand what Zuo Xiang meant.

However, Zuo Xiang did not give Hengqing a chance to refuse: "Hengqing, do you know what is the most stable relationship now?" It's marriage. Nowadays, the young people who can be used in the DPRK and the central government, Yun Ji is counted as one, you are counted as one, and Wei Xuan is counted as one. ”

Hengqing didn't know why Zuo Xiang knew so much, but Zuo Xiang's gaze at him made him a little overwhelmed.

"Don't hide it, others don't know, but we two old people know it. Do you think that our left and right phases can go through four dynasties without changing their positions, what do you rely on? We owe allegiance to His Majesty, and whoever His Majesty is, as long as he is enthroned, we are loyal to him. ”

Hengqing finally understood the source of the news from the left minister.

"Yunji, as long as the eldest princess is his mother one day, then he can't do anything that he can't do. As for Wei Xuan, his weakness has not been discovered so far, however, he seems to be particularly friendly to you. Zuo Xiang looked at Hengqing and wanted to see something on his face, but unfortunately, Hengqing didn't have any strange expression on his face.

"Only you, Hengqing, to be honest, I can't see through you."

Hengqing knew that honestly saying that he couldn't see through his left phase was to tell him that he didn't believe in himself.

"You are a person with a long vision, and you have your own means and power. Because of this, I don't understand why you should be loyal to the first emperor and do those things for the first emperor. The left minister paused: "I think, I don't trust you, and the right minister can't trust you." ”

Hengqing pursed his lips, yes, if they don't trust themselves, then how can they prove themselves.

"You have a way to prove yourself, get married, and marry Princess Qingti as a wife. In the future, you will also be a member of the royal family, so that even if the civil and military officials are loyal to you, they will also be loyal to the royal family. Zuo Xiang looked at Hengqing and paused word by word.

Hengqing's hand holding the handle of the wheelchair tightened instantly, the bone joints were white, and on the gauze on his right hand, blood overflowed along the gauze: "You Xiang." ”
