883 To fight, or not to fight?

Xiang Guogong looked at him: "Are you satisfied with his answer?" ”

The foggy boy just smiled and didn't speak, and his expression was no different from usual.

Xiang Guogong sighed: "I hope you don't regret the decision you made in the future." ”

Wu Gongzi first shook his head, indicating that he did not regret it, and then nodded, still expressing confidence in his decision.

Xiangguo Gong sighed again: "It's not early, old man, I'm going to sleep first, and then, let's continue to watch." ”

Misty Boy stepped forward, helped him lie down, covered him with a quilt, then added a charcoal fire to the stove, and checked the room again before turning off the lights and leaving.

On the other side, Qiu Guhan wrapped himself tightly, rode his horse, and ran to the palace as softly as possible.

He looked calm, but his heart, like the back of a galloping horse, rose and fell and worked very strongly.

The edict reads: Within three years after my death, if the crown prince is killed, it will be discussed by Qiu Heming, Feng Xiangkong, Ji Heng, Yin Jiu Kill, Xu Xiang, and Qiu Mianmian, and the less will obey the more, and one of the four princes, six princes, and seven princes will be selected from the four princes, six princes, and seven princes to inherit the throne.

According to this edict, unless the fourth, sixth, and seventh princes are all dead, it is impossible for Qiu Yexian and Qiu Lushuang to ascend the throne.

In other words, in the current situation, he is the one who should inherit the throne!

The ascension to the throne of the autumn night string can be said to have violated the will of his father, and it seems to be unjustifiable!

It can be said that this edict is to prevent the autumn night strings and autumn dew frost from snatching the dragon chair!

When his father was alive, he tried his best to protect the prince, and the other princes did not show their ambition to fight for power, but the father should still see the ambition of Qiu Yexian and Qiu Lushuang's obedience, and he was worried that his favorite prince would have an accident, so he secretly left this holy decree just in case.

And the father will hand over this holy decree to Xu Xiang - that is, Xiangguo Gong for safekeeping, it should be because Xu Guifei, Xiang Guogong, and the Xu family have no ambition to compete for the dragon chair, and Qiu Wu is weak and sickly, and he is fostered in the temple, and he is unlikely to participate in the battle for imperial power.

I believe that my father must have had mixed feelings when he made this edict, and I hope that this edict will never be useful, after all, he loves and values the prince so much.

However, the reality is cruel after all, and the last thing he wants to see in his life happened when he just died.

And, much worse than he guessed the worst might be.

Not only was the crown prince killed, but among the three princes he took a step back and was more optimistic, four princes were loyal to the second prince, the sixth prince died violently, and he, the seventh prince, was missing.

And now, he, the seventh prince, not only returned to the capital alive, but also lived well, and also had some connections and power in his hands, so that this edict could be realized - Xiangguo Gong would say "Only now is there a chance".

What he has to do is to make a heavy choice - whether to fight for this throne or not?

Fight for the throne? Of course he thought about it!

It's just that this idea has always been very vague and unclear.

In the past few years, he has been constantly hovering on the line of life and death, trying his best to live and live with dignity, and he has no qualifications and ability to ask for more.

Completely defeating Autumn Night Strings and replacing them is a very distant thing for him, hopeful, but unattainable.

And now, such a possibility has been clearly placed in front of him, forcing him to make a decision.

He's also a man, and he's still a royal man, if he's not tempted, he's going to hell!

However, even if he wants to fight, the road ahead is long and difficult.

Not to mention that Qiu Yexian will definitely not give up the throne and go all out to eradicate him, let's just say that the six "referees" listed in the edict, if they want to get their choice, they must be recognized by at least four of them in order to be "justified".

These six "referees" are all important figures in the world.

Qiu Heming, Prince Rong, the cousin of his father, although he is old, he is one of the top elders of the royal family, and his status and prestige in the royal family are very high.

Feng Xiangfeng and Yin Jiu Kill are loyal to their father, and will strictly implement their father's edict, and at the same time, they have always maintained a neutral attitude among the princes, and they will participate in the selection of the heir to the throne, and they will definitely deal with it from an objective and wise position and perspective, and will not be affected by subjectivity and others.

Ji Heng, fame and disciples are all over the world, and it is estimated that half of the Wenchen in the court are his protégés, and getting his support is equivalent to getting the support of the scholars in the world.

Xu Xiang is also known for his loyalty to the country and neutrality, even if his grandson is the prince, he will not favor and condone his grandson.

As for the old lady of the Lan family, Qiu Mianmian, although she comes from a big business family, she is the leader of the economic circles of Shangguo, and her thoughts and behaviors in business can greatly affect the economy of the entire Shangguo, especially the economy of Jiangnan, and she will be able to put forward long-term and beneficial views and bases from the perspective of economic development.

In addition, it is said that Qiu Mianmian is actually the illegitimate daughter of her father - but it is said that there is no way to evaluate it, but it is only certain that she has royal blood.

These six people include the royal family, civil ministers, military generals, and the most authoritative and influential mainstream bigwigs in the business world, especially Feng Xiangkong, Yin Jiu Kill, and Xu Xiang, whose combined strength has exceeded half of Shangguo's military strength.

It can be said that these six people can indeed decide the new emperor.

In other words, if the successor is opposed by the majority of these six people, the position must be unstable.

-- The father must have carefully analyzed and evaluated the six "judges" to choose one of the fourth, fifth, and seventh sons to ascend the throne.

Of course, among the six people now, Ji Heng and Qiu Mianmian must fully and only support Qiu Ye Xian, Feng Xiangkong and Yin Jiu Kill will definitely not support Qiu Ye Xian, and the thoughts of the other two are hard to say.

Qiu Guhan pondered his father's thoughts in the cold winter night, and he was gloomy.

The father thought so much and so carefully, which shows that he thinks that the possibility of the crown prince having an accident is not low, however, he can't ensure the safety of the prince, and even plans for the succession of the prince after the accident, what kind of mood and psychology does this have?

Father's ...... He looked up at the inky black sky and asked in his heart: Is it a blessing that you died before your sons killed each other, or should you be sympathetic?

And what should I do?

To fight, or not to fight?

How can you fight?

Can you get it?
