In the end, it was concluded that the three vassal kings of King Yun, King Fu, and King Ning all had proposals, and no one mentioned King Cheng, and they even forgot that there was a prince in the capital, King Shun. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Rong Lei has not been in the court because of Ding You, Xiaoguo Gong has been hit hard because of Rong Jing's death, his health has been bad, and he is recuperating at home, and only Yan Guogong Su Zhefan has been in the imperial court.

When it comes to the Mid-Autumn Festival, a banquet is held in the palace, and the monarchs and ministers rejoice together. Ordinary important ministers have to bring their families into the palace to meet the queen.

In the afternoon, Su Zhefan entered the palace with his family. Peng Peng met the queen for the first time.

Speaking of Queen Yan, in the vernacular, she is smart and virtuous, understands righteousness, has political strategy, and is brave and strategic. Empress Yan once said, "The world is not the world of the Chu family, it is the world of the people, and the country is not the family of the Chu family, but the thousands of families in the world." The country is in trouble, and the Chu family should meet the enemy at present. ”

It was such a queen Yan who personally sent her two sons, including the crown prince, to the battlefield and fought in blood.

Later, Empress Yan personally raised Chu Yiyang, the only grandson of the imperial brother, and when Chu Yiyang was thirteen years old, he followed Rong Lei, the son of the protector of the country, and is still far away in Hamiwei.

This is a woman who is brave, resourceful, and courageous, and has a fairly high political strategy.

The Yan family is a noble and celebrity, and there has never been a person in a high position in the court.

The Queen Yan in Peng Peng's eyes is a woman in her fifties, and her face still shows the beauty of the year, her temperament is graceful, and her manners are elegant. His eyes are peaceful and kind, and his face is smiling lightly.

After the family of the important minister visited the queen, they went to the imperial garden with the queen.

At the banquet, the monarchs and ministers rejoiced together, raised glasses and drank together, which was peaceful and joyful.

In this peaceful and joyful atmosphere, the battle for the throne officially began.

The reason is very simple, when the monarch and the ministers were having fun together, and when they were drinking and talking, Wu Sizhuo, the lord of the left minister, suddenly cried bitterly, saying that God would not bless me Daming, so that the royal family still has no one who can take the throne. He also said that he worked hard for the court and was loyal, all of which kept the affairs of the court in mind, and saw that there was no successor to the Ming Dynasty, and he was ashamed of the cultivation and reuse of the court.

Crying and finally mentioning that only Ruijun Wang Wenzhi Wuluo, who is famous and famous, no one can match him.

Chu Hanqi's nose was crooked. I already knew that my younger brother was ambitious, but I didn't expect that he could win over the left minister, and there were many officials from the left prime minister in the central government, so he actually had the intention of holding hostage and persecution.

Queen Yan sneered coldly in her heart, she was not dead now, and she couldn't wait to stand in line to choose the master, and she didn't know what benefits King Yun had promised to this old thing, so she was so eager.

Some of the other important ministers pandered to the left minister, some stood up to refute, and some remained silent.

Chu Han just watched Zuo Xiang cry endlessly, neither consoling nor responding.

In the end, the palace banquet ended early in a dreary state.

When Zuo Xiang returned to the mansion, he summoned a few strategists to tell what happened at the palace banquet.

Everyone discussed with each other, and finally came to the conclusion that the one above had no intention of making a prince at all, at least he had not considered King Ruijun.

In such a situation, several strategists advised the prime minister to plan and plan early.

The news of the palace banquet was soon spread among several vassal kings.

The vassal kings had mixed reactions. King Yun has long had the intention of usurping the throne, but the time is not ripe. Now that the Protector is dead, there are few ministers in the court who dare to argue with reason in front of the Holy Lord, as long as it is used properly, it is still possible.

And King Fu and King Ning's thoughts are much simpler, the emperor has no sons of his own, and he must be selected in the families of several princes. Choosing a child from your own family is equivalent to raising a son for nothing in the future, and you will have to be more careful and low-key in the future. If you can't choose it, you will pull it down, and I have never thought about this position anyway. His task is to take care of his fiefdom, not to make too unseemly things, and to watch the bandits not cross their own defense lines, and it is not a comfortable little life.

As for the others, they just watch from the wall, and as long as the fire does not burn their own one-third of an acre, they will not meddle in their own affairs.

Especially King Fu, his fiefdom is the richest, and occasionally some water bandits or something are almost cleaned up by himself, and he is far away from the capital, he is not a soil emperor, he has to make trouble about what to do, how can he have a comfortable life now.

And Lao Chengwang, who is far away in Sichuan, is the last to get the news. After getting the news, he immediately called his three sons and two grandsons to the study to discuss matters.

Lao Chengwang told the ins and outs of the matter, then looked at his children and grandchildren and asked, "Tell me what you think, today you are allowed to say your truest thoughts, if you don't tell the truth, after today, any thoughts will rot to death in my stomach." ”

A few children, you look at me, I look at you, and finally the seventeen-year-old eldest grandson Chu Sheng spoke first. "Grandfather, my grandson has been taught by you since he was a child, and what he has been thinking about since he was a child is how to learn skills and protect his family and country. And what the grandson learned was how to govern his fiefdom when the country was prosperous, and everyone had surplus food. When the country is in danger, how to take up arms and defend the territory. The grandson has never learned to govern the country, and he has never thought about it. So, the grandson had no other ideas. "To put it bluntly, I never learned to think about it, so I didn't have an idea.

The eldest son and the second son both nodded approvingly, only the third son stood up and said in a heroic tone. "Father, the royal brother has no heirs of his own, and he must choose one of us among those of us, so why can't we fight? We didn't rise up and rebel, we should be elected if we were elected, and if we were not elected, we would be pulled down, anyway, I think we still have to fight. ”

The eldest son shook his head and smiled helplessly, "Third brother, if you are chosen, do you think you are suitable?" ”

The third son was about to say, and scratched his head again, "I'm not suitable, I'm just a reckless man who only knows how to go to the battlefield, but do you still have two brothers and nephews?" ”

The second son laughed dumbly when he heard this, "Third brother, don't talk about me, even the eldest brother has never had these ideas, and just like Sheng'er said, we have never learned this, do you think it's a good family, just talk about it and govern the country well?" I don't have the skills anyway. ”

The third child continued to scratch his head, "Then forget it, anyway, if that bastard of King Yun sits on the country, I will be the first to stand up and rebel." I didn't think about anything else. ”

Lao Chengwang didn't ask the boss, he knew that this son actually had the same idea as himself, as a descendant of the Chu family, he should also protect the Chu family while enjoying the glory and wealth. There was never an idea of this.

At this time, Chu Mao leaned back in his chair and did not speak. If you want to say who Lao Chengwang likes the most, it is the eldest son of the second family, his second grandson Chu Mao.

Don't look at Chu Mao is only sixteen years old, he usually hangs his son, but among all the children, this child is the most scheming. This child has been smart and clever since he was a child, and he can see everything he learns, this child is strategic, brave, and the trend of the court pattern is the most clear and clear. The most important thing is that this child is kind-hearted, does not act in vain, is broad-minded, and tolerates everything. It can be said that the culture and martial arts are all excellent.
