Chapter 204: Reward
The villagers who listened to the speech of the six princes that day ran around to tell each other the good news. also added fuel and vinegar to say how the six princes served the country and the people; said that in order to force the doctor to develop a prescription for the epidemic, he even risked his life and contracted the epidemic himself; Also, how kind-hearted, handsome and charming the six princes are; When he was in disaster relief with Lord Feng, what kind of ability did he have to outstand, overwhelm the others, and arrange all the matters in an orderly manner......
This kind of rumors and news that sang praises for the six princes and created momentum for him, under the promotion of Mr. Jingling and Feng Yuan, soon spread throughout the southwest, and even spread to the capital and the big scene.
attracted the civil and military officials above the court, no matter how sincere they were, all of them smiled shyly, and said a few good words for the six princes above the court. Some scholars were extremely capable of using words and sentences to carve out a book of excerpts to praise the merits and deeds of the six princes. There are also some officials who remain neutral or are still waiting and seeing, and they all voted for Feng Ge's old sect and became the Six Emperors' Party.
Feng Ge Lao seized the opportunity and took the lead in asking the saint to crown the six princes as princes as a reward. The officials of the Six Princes' family also followed, and they all handed over the folds and begged the Holy Lord to seal the Six Princes.
And the officials of other factions, such as the crown prince, the third prince, and the fifth prince, shouted inappropriately. The reasons they give are both good and justified. Those people said in the excerpt, not to mention that Dajing has not appeared in the prince since the previous dynasty. Even if you want to be crowned a prince, you can't pass the brothers of the six princes and seal it on his head.
Besides, if the six princes are sealed, will the other princes also be sealed?
Not to mention those princes who were still playing in the palace at a young age, the crown prince, the third prince, and the fifth prince all walked in the court at least two years earlier than the sixth prince. They have also made meritorious deeds and made political achievements. If the Holy Lord really wants to crown the six princes, he must also add the three brothers of the six princes, otherwise the hundred officials will not accept it.
For a time, the folds on the head of the saint's case flew all over the sky and piled up into a mountain.
The Holy Lord originally intended to crown the six princes, the most intelligent, the most beloved, and the most like his son, but he was opposed by those imperial historians. Dispelled the idea.
Since the title of prince has been established in the Dajing Dynasty, there will be no more than ten people who have been entitled. And all of them must be talented people in the royal family, who have made countless meritorious contributions, and who are loyal to the monarch and the people. The prince can only be hereditary for two generations, and if there is no heir to get ahead after two generations, the emperor will revoke the title of prince.
The Prince of Daijing. Most of them were awarded by virtue of Xuan He's military exploits. There are also many elite soldiers and strong generals in their hands, as well as a large area of fiefdom. In his own fiefdom, the prince can become a king independently, even the emperor himself, and he cannot interfere with the prince's fief.
This was the rule set by the founding emperor. Passed down from generation to generation. It is said that the first prince of Dajing was the younger brother of the founding emperor. It was all thanks to his support that there was a big picture.
However, during the reign of the previous emperor, the prince had already ordered it to be abolished. The reason is that the emperor himself changed from a protector to an emperor. He was afraid that there would be people like him in the future who would oust his descendants from the throne.
Although he wants the six princes to take over his class, he doesn't want to give him power too early, first, he is afraid that it will be too easy, which will make the six princes lose their motivation and ruthlessness to fight and dare to break through; The second is that the tree is afraid of the wind. The sixth prince is only sixteen years old, and he has not yet left the palace to open a family, and the help behind him is still a little thin, and he can't compare with the relatives of the prince, the third prince, and the fifth prince. The third is that he is afraid of being divided by his son and hollowing out his royal power.
The prince is above the hundred officials and becomes the king of his own fiefdom. However, there is only one throne.
Which emperor would like to see a princely fiefdom in his own territory?
Now I am afraid that after the sixth prince becomes the prince, he will eat away at his power step by step and turn him into a puppet emperor. Eventually took its place. Just like his father did to his uncle.
Although he has the intention to let the six princes inherit his throne after his death, he will never allow himself to one day become the emperor who has been stripped of power.
The above is the mental process of rejecting Feng Ge Lao as the sixth prince and asking for the title of prince.
It is also the speculation of Cen Dalang to comfort the six princes who missed the princely title.
On this day, the six princes were still put in the bathtub to take a medicinal bath, and there was only Cen Dalang by his side, and the rest of the people who served. They were all driven away by him. Cen Erniang was also instructed by Cen Dalang to protect Ning Laoqi and go outside to see people.
"Qingyan! This king really can't swallow this breath! When the sixth prince thought that he almost lost his life this time, he also spent a lot of silver taels on the victims, and even condescended to the victims, dragging the sick body for many days to comfort the victims, and distribute food and medicine to them.
He did everything himself, planning for many days, but in the end he only got a verbal reward from the saint and a holy decree to reward him with a royal palace!
He is over fifteen years old, and according to the rules, it is time to leave the palace and open the palace, and the palace was already selected for him by the saint and Concubine Feng Xian. This time, the Holy Admiral's palace, which belonged to him, was used as a reward to reward him, and he almost didn't mad him.
"Then the princess of the palace was personally selected by me two years earlier! It's mine, and my father is embarrassed to reward me with it! This time, I lost a lot of money, and I almost lost my life, and actively sent people to relieve the disaster and rebuild the disaster area. You say, "Father, why did he do this to me?" Does he still treat me like a son? Isn't he being coaxed by my brothers and those ministers! ”
The sixth prince was so angry that he splashed a bunch of water, and the steaming heat hazy his expression. Cen Dalang still saw his angry hideous face clearly through the water vapor, and also saw through his narrow and selfish heart.
Scold! Sure enough, it's still small. If it was the six princes who had ascended the throne in their previous life, they would never ask him such a stupid question. will not show his "unseeable" villain thoughts in front of outsiders.
Perfunctory with such six princes, Cen Dalang should not be too handy.
"Your Highness, please be careful." Cen Dalang scooped up a scoop of water and splashed it on the back of the sixth prince, hearing him moaning comfortably. Sigh and hold back the rush that drowned him in the water. moved, and said slowly: "The saint is planning for you, you should not doubt his love for you." If people hear it and reach the ears of the saints, won't it teach him to chill his heart? ”
"Thinking about it, there must be a reason why the Holy One did this. It's nothing more than the following...... "Cen Dalang told his analysis of the saint to the six princes.
The sixth prince was also young and vigorous, and he was angry for a while, so he forgot his form. After he said that, he regretted it a little. Fortunately, Cen Dalang woke him up in time, "Qingyan, thank you for waking me up." Otherwise...... I was speechless for a while, and those words ......"
"I've never heard anything of it." Cen Dalang replied with interest: "Did you say anything just now?" ”
"Nope. Ha ha! The laughter of the six princes was heard by the soldiers standing guard outside a few rooms away. (To be continued.) )
