Chapter 119: The Great Prince is angry
Cao Anbang and the three of them laughed after waiting for the eldest prince to leave, and Cao Anbang said: "This eldest prince is really stupid and cute." We must actively cooperate with the Great Prince and control the entire Imperial City. Arrest and execute the prime minister and the princes and ministers who stubbornly insisted on supporting the border pass, and destroy the Yang family and the Li family. ”
Next, the three of them began to discuss, which people might oppose reconciliation with the Great Chen State and must be executed, who might be rebelled, how to follow the Great Prince to surrender to the Great Chen State, how to control the army in the imperial city, how to prevent the attack of the army in front that might return to the imperial city, and so on.
Let's say that the six gods of the eldest prince have no master, and he returned to the palace in a low mood. The more he thought about it, the more scared he became, reconciling with the Great Chen State was actually surrendering to the Great Chen State, so would the Great Chen Kingdom really make himself the emperor of the Great Xia Kingdom in the future?
If there is no reconciliation, then the entire Great Xia Kingdom will be a dead end. The Great Chen State has a martial arts sect, and it is impossible for the father to resist it no matter what. If he sent a letter to his father, asking him not to go to war with the Great Chen Kingdom and return to the imperial city, then the Great Chen Kingdom would come over, and the Great Xia Kingdom would also be a dead end.
If you don't support the border pass, the soldiers at the pass will soon run out of food and the whole army will be wiped out.
But what's the use of supporting yourself? Da Chen has a martial arts sect, and failure is a matter of time.
The eldest prince originally thought that this war was a trivial matter, and his father personally went out to fight, and he would soon be able to destroy the enemy and return to the imperial city. But now, the Great Prince deeply felt the dangerous situation of the Great Xia Kingdom.
The eldest prince sat there with no master, sorrow, and distress, and at this time, the strategists sent them two plans drafted, one on how to support the front line, and the other on how to strictly enforce the level of etiquette.
The eldest prince glanced at the plan to support the front line, and then silently tore the plan to pieces. Several strategists were stunned: this plan was drafted by a few of them after working hard in the middle of the night, and now the eldest prince didn't even look at it, so he tore it up, could it be that the eldest prince was not satisfied, or was there any flaw in this plan, and what was incomplete?
Several people looked at the eldest prince in horror, and had the heart to ask the eldest prince, but seeing the eldest prince's gloomy face and heavy mood, they didn't dare to ask anything, so they had to stand there silently. The eldest prince looked at a few of them and waved them out.
The great prince sat there in great sorrow until it was almost dawn, when the guard came to serve him.
The eldest prince walked towards the Jinluan Hall with heavy steps. How reluctant he was to go to the Golden Luan Palace today.
He didn't want to sit on that dragon chair anymore, he was afraid to sit on that dragon chair, and for the first time he felt that it was not easy to sit on that chair, which made people helpless, afraid, sad, and painful.
Think of myself yesterday, how energetic and excited I was sitting there giving orders. But now he wanted to turn around and run away several times, never to go to the Golden Luan Hall again. But he knew that he couldn't hide, he couldn't go, he couldn't go, the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were waiting for him there, and the patriarch of the Cao family and the other three people behind him were looking at him, he didn't dare to regret it, if he regretted it, he and his family and children would be a dead end.
The eldest prince walked into the Jinluan Palace, walked to the dragon chair, walked to the emperor's throne, and sat down on the dragon chair.
When the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty saw the eldest prince coming, they all looked at him quietly, waiting for him to speak.
The eldest prince sat there, holding the dragon case in front of him, his head bowed, not knowing what to say.
Prime Minister Jiang Shouxian stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, Your Majesty has been on the expedition for two days, we must quickly discuss and formulate plans and strategies to support the front line, and we must not delay." ”
The eldest prince said: "I have worked out the methods and strategies to support the front, and I will give it an edict in two days, today we will mainly discuss how to strictly enforce the hierarchy of etiquette and law, I want to divide the people of the country into nine classes, each category of people, every person must be divided into clear grades, and the low-level people must completely obey the orders of the high-ranking people, and must respect the high-ranking people, and must not offend the high-ranking people." In the past, our slavery system was very imperfect, and in the future, all those who violated the royal law, robbed, stolen, and failed to pay their debts will be reduced to slaves.
When all the ministers of civil and military affairs heard this, they were all stunned: What is the matter with the eldest prince? Now that the country is in a state of smoke everywhere, it has reached a critical juncture of life and death, but the eldest prince does not actively try to support the front line, but talks about the hierarchy of etiquette and law here.
Prime Minister Jiang Shouxian was anxious, he said: "Your Highness, the level of etiquette is important, but now the beacons are everywhere, the situation is critical, the soldiers at the front are actively facing the battle, we must do a good job in supporting the front line, this is the top priority at the moment!"
The eldest prince suddenly became angry: "Bold! Am I in prison or are you in prison? am I the prince or are you the prince? Imperial Forest Army, arrest this Jiang Shouxian and put him in prison!"
The civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty were all stunned at once: this, this, what's going on?
Four soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army rushed in from the gate of the main hall and surrounded Prime Minister Jiang Shouxian.
These four soldiers did not dare to really arrest Jiang Shouxian, Jiang Shouxian was highly respected in the Great Xia Kingdom, and worked hard for the Great Xia Kingdom all his life, it can be said that the Great Xia Kingdom has always been politically clear, the country and the people are safe, and a large part of it is Jiang Shouxian's credit. But now, the eldest prince is in charge of the country, and he ordered Jiang Shouxian to be arrested, and several people really didn't dare or bear to arrest him. Don't catch it, and disobey the order of the eldest prince. The Imperial Forest Army must obey the emperor's orders, this is the duty of the Royal Forest Army, and now that the Great Prince is in charge of the country, then it must obey the orders of the Great Prince.
Several people stood there, hesitating, not knowing what to do.
At this time, the ministers of civil and military affairs all stood up, and at the same time admonished the eldest prince: "Your Excellency, you have worked hard and made great achievements, even if your advice is not appropriate, but you are still for the country and the people, for the soldiers who went out in front, and for Your Majesty! I hope that Your Highness will forgive the Prime Minister's mistakes for the sake of Your Majesty's face and for the sake of the Prime Minister for the country and the people!"
The eldest prince said: "From today onwards, martial law will be imposed in the imperial city. No one is allowed to enter or leave the Imperial City. ”
After saying that, he turned around and left.
The ministers of civil and military affairs looked at each other, no one spoke, and no one knew what to do. People stood quietly for a while, Prime Minister Jiang Shouxian shook his head, sighed, lowered his head and slowly withdrew from the Jinluan Palace, and all the civil and military ministers also withdrew from the Jinluan Palace.
Jiang Shouxian was full of sorrow, anxiety, sentimentality, and heartache.
When he returned to his prime minister's mansion, he immediately ordered people to invite several loyal ministers in the court to come to his prime minister's mansion to discuss matters. Several people arrived at Jiang Shouxian's Prime Minister's Mansion and discussed for a while, but they didn't understand why the eldest prince was like this.
Originally, the imperial city should have made every effort to raise soldiers, horses, food and grass to support His Majesty and the soldiers at the border pass, but now the eldest prince is acting like this!
Everyone talked for a long time, helpless and helpless.
At this moment, a guard came in and reported: "Your Excellency, Yang Jingguo, the head of the Yang family, asks to see you." ”
