On that day, King Gong held Zhao Qing's corpse and did not let go for a long time until he was taken into the prison. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Zhao Yan asked Emperor Wanhua how to deal with King Gong, and Emperor Wanhua was silent and said, "When we were young, we also laughed and played together. ”

Emperor Wanhua doesn't remember how many years ago, at that time King Gong's mother was just a concubine, because of his friendship with the queen, he often took the young King Gong to the queen's palace to play, and Emperor Wanhua, who was only five years old at the time, would always take King Gong, who was only three years old, to the imperial garden to catch grasshoppers.

Later, King Gong's mother was favored by the first emperor, and her position became higher and higher, and gradually, King Gong never went to the queen's palace again, and King Gong became more and more separated from Emperor Wanhua.

And then all the way to this day.

Zhao Qing's death made Emperor Wanhua feel a lot of emotion, and remembered a lot of things in his childhood, which he couldn't remember for a long time, the face of King Gong when he was young also clearly appeared in his mind at this time, and that face was very similar to Zhao Qing's childhood, which made Emperor Wanhua feel very uncomfortable.

Zhao Yan looked at his father's nostalgic and heavy expression, and didn't ask much. Although his father still said it clearly, he already knew what to do with King Gong.

Waiting for Zhao Yan to retire, Emperor Wanhua took the queen's hand and sighed in a low voice: "Maybe I have taken too much medicine, my life is not long, I am always very sad recently, and I can't remember a lot of things, I also remembered it now, do you say this is very similar to returning to the light?" ”

The queen's eyes were red, and she said with a smile: "The emperor is in the prime of life and is in good health, don't say these unlucky words." ”

Emperor Wanhua smiled, but frowned again, and said in a deep voice: "Actually, I never thought of asking for their lives, especially ......" Speaking of this, he let out a long sigh.

"The concubine knows. The concubines all know. The queen patted the back of Emperor Wanhua's hand.

Emperor Wanhua didn't seem to hear it, and began to reminisce about the past, mostly when he was a child, he got along with his brothers and sisters, and the words that had been hidden in his heart for many years, and now he needs to confide.

Before he was made crown prince, he never wanted to be emperor. than sitting on the world. He longed to fight on the battlefield or travel the world, but his mother hated his sister's betrayal. Won this throne for him.

"Actually, Zhao Rui is right, if it weren't for the queen mother, I might not be able to sit in this position." Emperor Wanhua sighed, although being an emperor was not what he wanted.

The queen silently patted him on the back and arms. Silent comfort.

In the end, Emperor Wanhua said: "It just so happens that the body has collapsed." I'm tired too, and I don't want to care about it anymore. ”

The queen said: "The concubine will accompany you." ”

Emperor Wanhua did not say that when the new emperor ascended the throne, he could give amnesty to the world.

Of course. It is impossible for Emperor Wanhua to put up a burden immediately, at the very least, he must set up a prince first. Let the crown prince take over most of the political affairs, and then teach slowly. Wait until the crown prince can be completely **, and then he will abdicate.

Emperor Wanhua's preferred candidate for the crown prince is Zhao Yan, after all, Zhao Yan has made a lot of contributions to this incident, and his intelligence, strategy and temperament are also outstanding, otherwise he would not have handed over King Gong to Zhao Yan for disposal. It's just that the eldest prince born to the queen is still there, and he is worried that the queen will feel uncomfortable.

Before the crown prince was established, Emperor Wanhua had a discussion with the queen.

The queen can never abandon Emperor Wanhua, and also help Emperor Wanhua design King Gong, it can be seen that he is not a narrow-minded and simple-minded person, yes, when Emperor Wanhua asked her about the candidate for the prince who she thought was suitable in her heart, she smiled and said: "The ministers and concubines of the previous dynasty don't understand, since the second prince has made great contributions, and he is brave and strategic, if the emperor is satisfied, it is better to make him the prince." ”

Emperor Wanhua was not surprised, and said, "But the eldest prince ......"

Hearing this, the queen showed a helpless look and said: "Although the eldest prince was born to a concubine, he is weak and has mediocre qualifications and talents, even if the concubine wants him to be the prince, he can't do it, not to mention that he doesn't have that mind." And the second prince was raised by a concubine, although he was not his own, but he was similar to the prince, his character and concubines were very clear, and the concubines believed that he would be the emperor in the future and would treat the prince well. ”

The queen's words are reasonable, and Emperor Wanhua is not only pleased, but also grateful, and said: "My prince is luckier than me and King Gong. ”

The queen smiled silently.

The edict of the crown prince was issued very quickly, and Emperor Wanhua did not notify anyone in advance, and directly asked the great eunuch to announce the edict of the crown prince in the early court of a certain day.

A group of ministers were naturally caught off guard and shocked, and some ministers of the prince's mother's family and his mother's family immediately spared no effort to persuade Emperor Wanhua to withdraw his fate, but Emperor Wanhua blocked them with a word.

"Who is suitable to be the crown prince, it is not your turn to decide, I left your heads, not so that you can refute my words."

After that, no one dared to oppose Zhao Yan as the crown prince.

After reading out the edict of the crown prince, Emperor Wanhua rewarded the king for his rebellion.

All the plans were thought up by Zhao Yan, and he was the biggest hero, but he had already been made the crown prince, so he was not rewarded again.

At this time, everyone knew that Zhao Yan was the one who planned this, and everyone was immediately convinced.

And the second biggest hero is Zhong Siye, who arranged everything behind the scenes, but unfortunately he didn't want to be an official, and he was already the richest man in Dayong, so there was really nothing to appreciate, so Emperor Wanhua issued a new decree to allow men and women to marry, and men and women can marry the same as men and women.

This decree can be said to be inexplicable, many ministers did not understand what this had to do with the reward, and some officials immediately advised Emperor Wanhua on the grounds of violating the ethics of the program, but it was rejected again.

The third biggest hero, everyone thought it was the father and son of the Duke of Weiguo, but Emperor Wanhua called out An Ruolan's name and said: "The county lord of Chenshuang is brilliant and courageous, if she hadn't delayed time, I might have been lying in the coffin today, it stands to reason that she is the biggest hero." ”

Hearing this, a group of ministers originally thought that Zhao Yan would be displeased, but they didn't want Zhao Yan to give up his hand and said: "Erchen also thinks that the biggest hero is the county lord of Chenshuang." ”

This made a group of ministers drop their jaws. Originally, there were still people who had a small calculation, hoping that Zhao Yan would offend the Weiguo Mansion, so that other princes could get a boost, but they didn't expect that it would be such a result. Some people even speculated that Zhao Yan said this on purpose. It wasn't until later that they learned that Zhao Yan and Wei Xing were good brothers in private, and all the ministers suddenly realized, and they completely gave up their thoughts of wooing Wei Guogong and dealing with Zhao Yan.

Besides, at the moment, Emperor Wanhua nodded with a smile and said, "When the county lord of Xuanchenshuang enters the palace, I want to reward her heavily!" ”

The great eunuch passed the decree to the outside, and soon, An Ruolan walked into the Jinluan Hall with a dignified posture, neither humble nor arrogant, Ying Ying knelt down and saluted: "See Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live." ”

"No courtesy." Emperor Wanhua raised his hand and said with a kind smile: "Chenshuang, you have made a great contribution this time, tell me, what reward do you want?" "There is a lot of momentum for what you want, what I give.

An Ruolan paused, touched the white cloth wrapped around his wrist, and said, "Chenshuang hopes that King Gong can live in pain forever and will not be able to be liberated for the rest of his life." ”

The words fell, and there was an uproar in the hall. (To be continued)
