Chapter Ninety-Three: A Kingdom Shall Not Be Without a King for a Day

In the blink of an eye, it was already night, Chang'an City fell into a dead silence, thousands of streets and hundreds of squares curfew, no one was seen, everyone hid in the house, silently observing the situation outside from the crack in the door.

What happened on the Wangjiang platform, even the people who couldn't read big characters understood what it meant.

Not to mention killing the emperor, even if it is just an assassination of the emperor, it is a big crime to punish the nine clans.

The person who could kill the emperor was the son of King Su.

Xu Lie, the king of Su, is still famous in the Three Kingdoms, and is talked about by the people, and is the first hero to lay down the territory of thousands of miles for Dayue.

The 200,000 Xiliang army is the face of Da Yue, the most capable army of Da Yue, and the Northern Qi Dynasty has so far been half of the troops to defend against the king, and half of the troops to defend against Dayue's other soldiers and horses.

If King Su rebelled, he would definitely not be able to become the emperor, because as soon as the soldiers and horses of the imperial court and the Qinwang army of the other six Song princes arrived, only 200,000 people in Xiliang could not defend Guanzhong Road.

But if King Su rebels, can he enter Chang'an City, the first thought of the people of Chang'an City is - can!

The Xu family army, which once swept the world, if it can't even defeat three passes and one Chang'an, then it is not called the Xu family army.

The son of King Su killed the emperor and deserved death.

can kill King Su's son, King Su's son and princess are all dead, and everyone knows what a lonely person can do.

There is also a limit to loyalty, and if King Su rebels, millions of soldiers and civilians in Guanzhong Province will die together with King Su.

King Su dared to do this, but the court did not dare.

But even if King Su does not rebel, the crime of killing the king, and if he does not kill the son of King Su and does not cut the domain, where is the majesty of the court?

Fortunately, this problem does not need to be considered by the people of Chang'an City, and they are not qualified to consider it.

The only one who can deal with this problem is the Manchu Dynasty civil and military who stand on the Taiji Palace.

But this problem is obviously not easy to solve.

The lights in the imperial city were bright, and it was time to close the palace gates, but the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were still arguing like headless flies in the golden palace.

Since returning from outside the city, Baiguan has hardly had time to drink a sip of water, and he is anxious to find a countermeasure to deal with King Su.

In fact, this matter is also easy to sort out.

The prince of Su killed the emperor, and he should behead the Xu family.

But who would dare to give this order?

How to let King Su Xu You come to the capital to die?

Xu You can't be allowed to come to the capital to die, so he can only send troops to fight him.

As soon as the army was fired, King Su did not rebel but also reversed.

King Su's 60-year peace was ruined, and no one can say what it would turn into in the end.

Only kill Xu Buling and don't blame King Su, King Su may still rebel.

If you don't kill Xu or Don't Ling, who dares to speak?

The emperors have been slaughtered, and they still swallow their anger and don't kill Xu Buling, what is the use of the court?

At the end of the day, it's a question of whether to fight or not to fight.

And on this issue, even the three princes and nine kings do not dare to draw conclusions without authorization, and they are not qualified to draw conclusions.

In this way, everyone had different opinions, and after arguing until the evening, the Taiji Golden Hall finally slowly reached an agreement - first find someone who can take care of things.

The Golden Palace was crowded, and all the princes who did not go to court on weekdays came, as well as the old people of the clan.

After the voice of Taiwei Liu Pingyang gradually suppressed it, he finally stood up and said loudly:

"Ladies and gentlemen, the kingdom cannot be without a king for a day! If the argument continues, when the Prince of Liulu arrives in Chang'an, it will be clear what the scene will be, the saint has not established a crown prince, and now the top priority should be to set a Ming monarch to announce to the world, so as not to plunge the whole world into fire and wolf smoke! ”

As soon as these words came out, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty quieted down, and only then did they realize that the current situation was not good.

Let's not talk about the question of whether King Su is against or not.

Song Ji did not have a queen and an eldest son, so he never set up a crown prince.

If the dragon chair is still empty before the six kings arrive in the capital, then there is no part for the courtiers to speak, and the six Song princes are qualified to inherit the unification, basically whoever arrives in the capital first is the emperor, and the name is justified.

Under this premise, the six princes must be rushing to Chang'an non-stop, and it may be that King Su has not yet reached Chang'an, and the King of Wei and King Chu, who are closest to Chang'an, will fight first on the road.

It is also possible that the six kings will not move, waiting for King Su to break Chang'an, kill the first emperor's vein, and then the six dragons will take the heir.

In order to compete for the dragon chair, it is natural that any unbelievable situation arises.

The chaos in the world is nothing compared to the throne, anyway, the throne is also from the Song family, without the monarch's edict, why should the six kings listen to the transfer of your group of courtiers with foreign surnames?

Aware of this situation, the Manchu Dynasty Wenwu suddenly became anxious, and the king of Su didn't care about it first, before the news came out, he would first stabilize the prince of the Song clan of the Sixth Road.

As long as there is a son of heaven in Chang'an City, the king of the Six Roads will not dare to come over and grab it justifiably, otherwise he will not be able to sit still.

It is better to oppose a Su king than to fight against the prince of Liulu together.

For a while, the Taiji Hall was quiet, and the hundred officials looked left and right, and their eyes gradually locked on Song Yu, the king of Yan, who was standing in the corner of the palace, with a sad face and tears streaming down his face.

If you want to choose a monarch, you must have the surname Song, because Song Ji did not set up a crown prince, and those who are qualified to inherit the throne in Chang'an City are only a few princes and Song Yu, the king of Yan.

Empress Cui died young, leaving no princes, and the mothers of several little princes were all from small families or official families.

According to the clan etiquette, the eldest son is established without the eldest son, but Song Ji's eldest son is only six years old, and he can't take care of it when he wears a dragon robe, and he doesn't have a relative on his mother's side to rely on, so it's useless to take the throne.

And Song Yu is different, Song Yu is the second son of the first emperor, and the brother of Song Ji's mother, who was qualified to inherit the throne back then, and now naturally there are.

Essay Tao Wu Luo, Song Yu has always been talented, indisputable and impatient, and has been teaching in Guozijian all year round.

Needless to say, the 'true gentleman of our time' is known to everyone.

Even if the wrist is worse than Song Ji, it is stronger than the six-year-old doll.

Baiguan thought about it for a while, at this time in Chang'an City, the heir to the throne who could stand up and preside over the overall situation seemed to be only Song Yu.

But this obviously can't be said directly, because supporting his younger brother to be the emperor instead of the prince is still a bit inappropriate in general, if anyone says it and is ultimately vetoed, after the little prince succeeds to the throne and grows up, it is clear what will happen.

So the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty focused their eyes on the corner of the main hall, waiting for Song Yu to stand up by himself.

It's just that Song Yu doesn't seem to have the intention of fighting for the throne, but his face is sad, and he keeps shedding tears, it seems that he has been killed and injured by his brother, and he has not recovered yet.

Many courtiers sighed, and then set their eyes on the people who were the most capable of taking ideas in the official positions present.

It stands to reason that at this time, there is no queen, and the emperor's mother-in-law, Empress Dowager Xiao, should come out and ask Song Yu to succeed to the throne, but Song Yu refused several times, and then reluctantly ascended the throne.

But the Empress Dowager Xiao went to the summer resort a few days ago, and she may not have received the news yet, and the Empress Dowager Xiao is Xiao Chuyang's sister, so let the Empress Dowager take the idea, isn't it just to let Xiao Chuyang take the idea.

As a result, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty focused their eyes on the three dukes, waiting for the reply of these three people.

At the front of the court, Taiwei Liu Pingyang was silent and was not the first to speak, because the current candidate is only Song Yu, and the situation has come here, so there is no need to deliberately manipulate it.

After a moment of silence, Imperial Doctor Cui Huailu sighed and stepped forward to speak.

And at this moment, Xiao Chuyang, the head of the hundred officials and the prime minister of the dynasty, stood up and said in a deep voice:

"The country can't be without a king for a day, according to the etiquette law, when the emperor's eldest son Song Ling enters the palace to succeed to the throne, everyone, do you have any objections?"

???

The civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty are a little inexplicable - the situation is so clear, your Xiao family supports the little prince, this doesn't offend Song Yu?

Song Yu's sad face sank slightly, his eyes instantly became angry, and he hurriedly covered it up.

Liu Pingyang was a little anxious, and hurriedly wanted to step forward to interject, but Cui Huailu, the imperial historian, also spoke:

"I second."

There was a slight noise in the court, and some people couldn't understand the situation.

Obviously, it is most reasonable to set up Song Yu at this time, why should he set up a little prince who doesn't understand? If you want to control the young monarch to control the court, you have to pick a peaceful day, this Chang'an is almost gone, how can a six-year-old emperor order six princes?

But two of the three dukes stood up to support the eldest son of the emperor, and according to the etiquette law, it should indeed be so, and they did not dare to refute offending the new monarch at will, so they could only look at Liu Pingyang, the captain in charge of the Dayue army......
