The emperor can joke about himself, but the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces don't dare.

Moreover, it seems that the emperor is not shy about it at all, you must know that you are in the palace, and you don't know when you will die, isn't that tea an excellent example?

There's no guarantee that something will happen tomorrow.

Some ministers slandered, but no one dared to say it.

But Prince Rui said, "Your Majesty, at the age of General Xiao Zhan, he should be the emperor's eldest prince, but the two eldest princes seem to be inappropriate, and General Xiao Zhan's name, in addition to changing his surname, do you need to change his name?" ”

The Manchu Dynasty Wenwu looked at Prince Rui with wide eyes.

It's too bold, you may not agree to change your surname Xiao Lao Guogong, do you still want to change your name?

Prince Rui glanced at them, "Rank and train the characters." ”

Xun Zhan...... Funeral ......

Who would dare to write such a name on the royal jade butterfly?

Ministers, "....... ”

yes, the name has to be changed.

The emperor also remembered that this name was inappropriate.

But it seems that Zhan'er is looking for it, or is Xun Zhi coming?

"Let's call it discipline," the emperor made a final decision.

The minister was embarrassed.

Discipline ...... Martyrdom......

But he wants to be the crown prince, and he will be the emperor in the future, and it will be okay if he dies.

It is a good thing to die in the line of duty.

In this way, Xiao Zhan's name was determined, although he didn't use it much, it was still ugly enough, at least An Rong knew it, and he really disliked it.

Xiao Zhan's name was decided like this, he was the eldest prince, so the other princes had to move one later.

The seventh prince became the eighth prince.

Just this matter, it almost scared the four princes out of their hearts.

Because the three princes colluded with the Praetorian Guards to force the palace. Although it didn't cause a big disaster, it was not a small crime, especially since he also colluded with King Qi and was suspected of killing the king and seizing the throne, so it was strange that the emperor could spare him.

It's just that the evidence is unclear, and it is another royal scandal, and the emperor is unwilling to investigate deeply, and the royal family will lose face at that time.

What kind of emperor, to what extent is he unvirtuous, and he will be rebelled by his son?

It was the emperor's edict to let the four princes go to guard the imperial mausoleum.

The four princes also have eyes and ears in the palace. At first glance, I heard this. Ears and eyes hurried to tell him.

The four princes were scared on the spot.

Later, I learned that he was the fifth prince...... The feeling of falling from heaven to hell and finally from hell back to heaven is, in the words of the Four Princes, really a ghost in broad daylight. It's not your average piece of bad luck.

The third prince was punished to guard the imperial tomb for three years. Leave him out of collusion with the king of prayer. Just counting his use of the Praetorian Guard, the punishment is too heavy, but it is useless for anyone to intercede.

The emperor only looked at the three princes coldly. He asked, "Is the punishment heavy?" ”

The emperor's eyes were clear, and when the third prince glanced at it, he palpitated and was afraid.

My father knew everything, and he couldn't hide his little tricks from him at all.

If he thinks it's heavy, the emperor will hand it over to the Criminal Department for investigation, and when the time comes, ...... I'm afraid that it will be lighter to be relegated to the people.

The three princes bowed their heads and admitted their mistakes.

The second prince, he is now lying on the bed because of his injuries, but how he was injured, the emperor is clear.

It's so disappointing to self-harm for the throne!

Especially about poisoning the tea, now that I think about it, the emperor is also afraid.

The punishment of the second prince was decided only after the emperor met the Empress Dowager Zheng.

Empress Dowager Zheng admitted that the injury of the second prince was not caused by the third prince, and that the tea was also their idea, but they were also forced to do so.

The Zheng family has supported the third prince and the second prince as enemies for many years, if the third prince ascends the throne, the Zheng family will not be able to say that they will be prosperous and rich, but they are afraid that even their lives may not be saved.

Empress Dowager Zheng begged the emperor to read it for the sake of the Zheng family's loyalty, and to be light.

The emperor is nostalgic for the old love, when he was able to ascend the throne, the Zheng family contributed a lot, and only then did he stop him from drinking poisonous tea in time.

The emperor fined the Zheng family 100,000 taels of silver for the war, and the punishment was spared.

But the second prince, the emperor punished him for a year of confinement.

When Empress Dowager Zheng heard the emperor's punishment, she sighed in her heart and said, "Your Majesty, have you made up your mind to make Zhan'er the crown prince?" ”

The emperor looked at her and did not speak.

But not speaking, it represents acquiescence.

Empress Dowager Zheng smiled bitterly and did not speak.

Outside, Concubine Zheng and the queen came in and knelt down, wanting to intercede for the second and third princes.

When the emperor saw them, he was irritable, "Do you think you can hide the idea you did?" If you really feel that the punishment is heavy, hand it over to the criminal department for a thorough investigation, and when the time comes, no one is allowed to say a word! ”

The faces of the queen and Zheng Guifei turned pale and bloodless.

Bite your lip tightly and don't speak again.

The next day, the auspicious day of the zodiac.

In the morning, the funeral of the Empress Dowager Xu, her funeral was not grand, it was the meaning of the Empress Dowager Zheng, the border was fighting, the imperial treasury was empty, and if you could not be extravagant, don't be extravagant and wasteful.

The words are good, in fact, the Empress Dowager Zheng annoyed the Empress Dowager Xu, and the Empress Dowager Xu raised King Qi out of a rebellious bone, wanting to take away her son's country, if she wasn't the queen canonized by the first emperor, the Empress Dowager Zheng couldn't wait to belittle her, and she wanted to be buried in a beautiful way? Dream!

In the afternoon, it was to correct Xiao Zhan's name and let him recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors.

It stands to reason that Xiao Zhan is not here, and he is in a hurry.

However, the matter is in a hurry, do you want Xiao Zhan to return to Beijing after losing the border war?

Kowtow to the ancestors and ancestors, and it will not be bad for a while.

When Xiao Zhan's name was recorded on the royal jade butterfly, the emperor breathed a sigh of relief.

He was afraid, fortunately Xiao Lao Guogong was not here, otherwise this matter could be done so smoothly?

Obviously, he is the emperor, but there is a feeling that the mountain is high and the emperor is far away.

The next day, it was still early.

However, the civil and military officials waited for a long time, but they did not see the emperor come up.

Prince Rui personally went to invite, who would have thought of bringing back two holy decrees.

One is the holy decree of making Xiao Zhan the crown prince.

On the other hand, it is the emperor's personal expedition, and the government is handed over to Prince Rui and the long horse as before.

Looking at the holy decree, Prince Rui couldn't cry or laugh, "The emperor is the shopkeeper, won't he be addicted?" ”

The long horse also looked helpless, "It's not a good thing to be trusted by the emperor too much." ”

If they were traitors, they would like to be able to help the emperor to supervise the country and use their power for personal gain.

But what can they do except help deal with government affairs and do their best?

Raising troops to rebel?

Xiao Zhan is the crown prince, think about the strength of him and the Xiao Guogong Mansion......

Even if they have that mind, they are extinguished, not to mention that they don't have it at all.

"If you don't deal with government affairs, you don't know how hard it is to be an emperor," said the long horse.

Border.

The emperor announced Xiao Zhan's life experience to the world, and the news of making him the crown prince spread throughout the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Dongyan and Beilie have also heard of it.

Yuan Yi's brows tightened.

He thought that he would live a smoother life than in his previous life.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Zhan was smoother than him.

In his previous life, he heard some rumors that Xiao Zhan was the illegitimate son of the emperor, but the rumors were always rumors, and he didn't recognize each other.

Thinking about it, Yuan Yi couldn't help but be jealous of Xiao Zhan.

It seems that everything good is his, and he can't grab it!

In his previous life, he had a good face, it was his!

In this life, An Rong, who has the Xiao family's heirloom jade bracelet, is his!

Yuan Yi was furious in his heart, and the teacup in his hand shattered instantly.

Gu Qingyan was on the side, sipped tea lightly, and said with a smile, "With the military power in the hands of Xiao Guogong Mansion and Xiao Zhan, people may not be rare for the position of a prince." ”

Yuan Yi did not speak.

He knew that what Gu Qingyan said was right, the military power was higher than the imperial power.

He looked up at her and said, "The bomb hasn't been made yet?" ”

Gu Qingyan nodded and said, "It's enough to break through Yingcheng." ”

Yuan Yi's face sank and said, "This time, don't go wrong again!" ”

Hearing Yuan Yi's dissatisfied words, Gu Qingyan's brows furrowed.

She's just helping him, not his advisor!

However, when he thought of what happened before, Gu Qingyan was also angry.

In fact, the bomb has been remade, but it has gone wrong.

It's not that Dongyan doesn't use bombs to attack the city, but there is no way.

The lead is too short!

Siege the city with trebuchets, and the bomb exploded before it could be dropped on Yingcheng!

These bombs are the same as those given to King Qi.

But they forgot one thing.

The walls of Yingcheng are higher than the other gates of the Great Zhou.

Yingcheng's bow and crossbow shoot farther.

When they got closer, before the bomb was dropped, the bomber was shot with a bow and arrow!

If the bow and arrow have a fireball on it...... With a bomb, that's not killing the enemy, it's killing someone.

"Command to go down and attack the city tomorrow!"

Inside the big tent.

When Xiao Laoguo got the news, he blew his beard angrily and stared.

"It's a cut before a prelude!" Xiao Laoguo patted the table and said.

The generals are embarrassed, the word "cut first and then play" is not appropriate for the emperor, right?

Looking at Xiao Laoguo's angry appearance, everyone knew the current affairs and did not speak.

But everyone doesn't say it, some people say it.

An officer and soldier came in and said, "The father-in-law has arrived, and I want General Xiao to go and receive the order." (To be continued......)
