Chapter 236: Xuan's Discussion of Politics
Dad summoned all the ministers to discuss, and Liu Rong naturally went to wait outside the Xuanshu Hall early in the morning.
And when Liu Rong arrived, many courtiers had already gathered outside the Xuanshu Palace.
Seeing that Liu Rong was coming, the crowd immediately saluted and said, "The ministers meet His Royal Highness the Prince."
Liu Rong is hand arched and said: "All the Qing family is exempt from courtesy."
"Your Highness".
In these days, Liu Rong has been presiding over the court meetings, but Liu Rong's learning ability is still very strong, and after a short time, he is generally familiar with the functions and powers of the various ministries and agencies of the DPRK and the Central Committee.
These things, the ministers of the court and the central government, but they all see in their eyes.
There are even some people who have different thoughts, and unconsciously begin to want to be close to Liu Rongtao.
There is a saying that once the son of heaven and a courtier, he could not find a sense of existence in front of today's son, so naturally he couldn't stop these people from setting their eyes on the successor of the son of heaven and the current prince.
And Liu Rong is very sober at this time, although his father seems to be recuperating in the palace with peace of mind, except for the things that he took the initiative to play, he never asks about the court.
Even if it is said that it is broken, Liu Rong will not believe that his father is really kneeling and completely relieved of himself.
When he was in the court, what he said, and even what he did when he returned to the palace after he dispersed the court, the people he saw would definitely have a steady stream of reports to his father.
And Dad didn't care about everything, and occasionally summoned Zhou Yafu and Chao Cuo and others to the palace for secret talks.
With the loyalty of these two to their father, if Liu Rong did something arrogant, he didn't have to think that he would report it to his father as soon as possible.
And if he gets too close to these courtiers who take the initiative to come forward, he may immediately violate his father's bottom line.
With my father's kind of character, especially now that he is sick, he will inevitably think, is the prince looking at me and holding the disease, combining friends in the DPRK and China, and preparing to succeed him?
For the emperor, there is no one to be trusted except himself.
Throughout Chinese history, as long as it is to get the throne, it is possible to kill one's father and brother............
However, Liu Rong did not shy away from it, not all of the people sent to the palace by his father were from good families.
Among these people, there are people who are "deliberately" arranged by his father, but Liu Rong acted as if he didn't know, taking advance as retreat, and transferred one of them to his side as a confessor.
I have never done anything unspeakable, so why don't I dare to let others know?
………………………………………………………………………
After a short time, as usual, a messenger walked outside the hall, stretched out his voice, and said, "Your Majesty - have arrived!" ”。
Hearing this, including Liu Rong, the people present immediately lined up and stepped into the Xuanshu Palace.
It's just that this time, there is something different from the past that Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, did not come after the courtiers.
but he was already sitting on the bed in the middle of the temple.
The ministers walked to their places and stood up, holding the jade wat in their hands, and immediately bowed and said, "Wait for the ministers to meet Your Majesty!" ”。
"Let's be even", Liu Qi, the son of heaven, said.
When he got up, Liu Rong glanced at the father sitting on the top, and the father's spirit seemed to be much better.
"Is it already already?" , Liu Rong muttered in his heart.
Glancing at the ministers in the palace, Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, said: "Today, I summoned the ministers here because I have important matters to discuss with you."
When the Son of Heaven said this, it was naturally the turn of Zhou Yafu, who was the prime minister, to reply: "Please also ask Your Majesty to show me."
"Liu Sui has been deposed as the Marquis of Yuanling, how should Zhao Guodang deal with it, and what is the opinion of the secretaries?"
Hearing this, Dou Ying immediately jumped out, got up and saluted: "Your Majesty thinks that such a major matter should only be decided by His Majesty, but in the humble opinion of the ministers, the king of Zhao should be established again to stabilize the hearts of the people of Zhao State."
Dou Ying revealed his inner thoughts, and later, Yuan Ang also jumped out to second.
Seeing this situation, many courtiers followed suit and asked the Son of Heaven to set up King Zhao again to stabilize the hearts of the people in the world.
However, the person who jumped out this time to refute Dou Ying and Chao was not Chao wrong, but Cheng Zhang Yan in the imperial history.
"The minister Zhang Yan said that now Liu Sui lost the throne, and in the opinion of the minister, Handan County and Julu County should be brought under the jurisdiction of the imperial court."
The people of the Manchu Dynasty all knew that Zhang Yan was a diehard loyalist of Chao Cuo, but with his position, it was still not enough to deal with Dou Ying and Chao Cuo.
If it weren't for the support behind Chao Mistake, he would definitely dare to say this at this time.
As soon as his words came out, the imperial historians under Chao Cuo also began to echo him.
But Chao Cuo's matter is not his own business, and he generally stands in place and does not say a word.
In this way, Liu Rong couldn't guess what it meant.
And according to Dad's temperament, if Handan and Julu counties are returned to the imperial court, Dad will definitely support it.
But today I asked the courtiers what they meant, and I don't know what Daddy is going to do.
After a long while, Liu Qi, the son of heaven, who was sitting on the bed, said: "With my intentions, when the king of Zhao is established again, what do the Qing family think?" ”。
Dou Ying, Yuan Ang and others, even jumped out and said: "Shengming is no more than Your Majesty."
finally moved back to a city in front of the Son of Heaven.
At this moment, these two people have a hint of raising their eyebrows.
However, when it came out like this, Liu Rong really couldn't understand what Daddy meant.
actually said in public that there would be another king of Zhao.
At the beginning, when the rebellion of the five kingdoms of Wu and Chu was quelled, Liu Qi, the son of heaven, in order to prove that his appearance was not so ugly at all, he threw out the state of Chu that was already in his hand.
The youngest son of Liu Jiao, the king of Chu Yuan, and Liu Li, the emperor of the dynasty, became the successor king of Chu.
In order to show the world, how could the Son of Heaven covet Wu and Chu, these "small countries".
However, now is a good time to swallow Zhao Guo in one bite, and Dad actually refused.
Just after deciding on this matter, when it was time to discuss who should be the king of Chu, the matter was reversed.
Empress Dowager Dou went to the Xuanshu Palace in person, and the Han family never had any rules that the harem could not interfere in politics.
It's just that with the experience of Empress Lu, all the empress dowagers of the Han family did not dare to interfere in the internal affairs of the imperial court too frantically.
When the time comes, the entire family of the Queen Mother's relatives will become the target of everyone, and there may be a danger of extinction.
At this point, Liu Qi, the son of heaven, immediately got up and said: "The Queen Mother is here, quickly set up a seat for the Queen Mother."
"No!" , the attendants on the side are busy.
And Liu Rong and the courtiers couldn't care about it, why did the Queen Mother come to the Xuan Room at this time, and they all bowed and said: "The ministers meet the Queen Mother."
Holding a few canes in one hand, with the support of the maidservant, she walked forward slowly, and the Empress Dowager Dou said: "Your family is exempt from courtesy."
"Empress Dowager Xie".
…………………………………………………………………………
Since today's son ascended the throne, although Mrs. Dou often interferes in court politics, she has never been to the Xuanshu Palace. Solidly, since the Empress Dowager Dou arrived in the Xuan Room and sat next to Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, the attention of everyone present was focused on the old lady Dou.
"The mourning family heard that His Majesty and the princes and ministers were discussing the establishment of another king of Zhao, and they came here."
After saying this, he continued: "The mourning family has a word, is the emperor willing to listen to it?" ”。
Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, smiled and said, "Please say it to the Queen Mother."
Hearing this, Empress Dowager Dou said: "That Liu Sui committed a crime of rebellion, and was pardoned by the emperor, but he only abolished the throne of the king of Zhao.
The emperor's sons are still young, and they are not familiar with the affairs of the military battle array, so if this is not the time to establish the king of Zhao, it is better to first assign the two counties of Handan and Julu of Zhao to the imperial court, and when the emperor's sons grow up, it is not too late to establish the king of Zhao."
As soon as these words came out, Liu Rong, who knelt in the seat, understood why his father would follow the words of Dou Ying and Yuan An, and what else would he set up King Zhao.
It turns out that there is a backhand to this.
The sons of the Han family are all like this, they are bitches themselves, and they insist on setting up archways.
And this archway is still so that you have nothing to say.
Emperor Wen fished for law enforcement, killed Liu Chang, and then came to divide Huainan Kingdom into three, so that Liu Chang's three sons were all princes and kings.
is to let the world understand, look, I am not rare in the three counties of Huainan Kingdom, Liu Chang's death is because of his own fault. And even if he rebelled, he was still a minister of the war, saving Liu Chang's life, and he just ordered someone to escort him to Shu County to take care of him, he didn't want to eat and starve to death, who is to blame? ?
The same is true of Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, at first, after learning of Liu Sui's guilt, he was even more reluctant to pursue it, it was the courtiers who "died to admonish" and forced themselves, so they had to do so, but my original intention was not so.
Of course, the obstacle is removed in this way, and in the end, no one else can say anything.
The courtiers listened to Mrs. Dou's words, but they looked at each other, and the queen mother meant that she did not agree with the establishment of King Zhao.
However, the reason given by the Empress Dowager Dou is indeed difficult to refute, among the many heirs of the Son of Heaven Liu Qi, the oldest is the crown prince Liu Rong.
However, now, the crown prince has not yet reached the crown, and the rest of the princes are even younger.
The grandmother felt sorry for her grandson and didn't want her grandson to go to a vassal state that might face the attack of the Xiongnu at any time, but she also said that it was in the past.
Without waiting for the courtiers to say, Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, first answered: "What the Queen Mother said, it is true, I didn't think it through."
The courtiers, of course, heard what His Majesty meant by this, and His Majesty had already agreed with what the Queen Mother said.
Immediately, the wind direction in the entire Xuanshu Hall changed greatly, and the call against the re-establishment of King Zhao was immediately overtaken.
Then someone said: "Shengming is no more than Your Majesty, and this is indeed not the time to establish King Zhao again."
And Liu Rong, who was kneeling on one side, also had to sigh that his father's play was indeed unguardable.
It seems that I still have to learn from my father, and in the future, I will also carry forward this hard, the stunt of the archway, Liu Rong can't stop yy in his heart.
………………………………………………………………………
After the discussion of this matter, the courtiers all thought that there was nothing to do, and it would not be long before the court would disperse.
And then, Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, said again: "After this matter is finished, I still have one more thing to inform Zhuqing."
After speaking, he glanced at Liu Rong, who was kneeling on one side, and Liu Qi, the son of heaven, said again: "This matter is about the prince!" ”。
Hearing what His Majesty said, it was about the crown prince, and the people present naturally focused their eyes on Liu Rong.
I was thinking about what the prince had done, could it be that when the prince was in charge of the country, what he did angered His Majesty.
While these people were conjecturing, Liu Qi, the son of heaven, said again: "Some time ago, the queen often mentioned to me the matter of having no children, and I naturally felt some pity, so I decided to succeed a son and the queen.
Among the many princes now, only the crown prince is still in Chang'an, and today the queen mother is also in the Xuan room, so I decided to pass the crown prince to the queen's name."
As soon as these words came out, the entire Xuanshu Hall instantly became quiet, as if the amount of information was simply too large, which made many courtiers dumbfounded.
Your Majesty is actually going to pass the crown prince to the queen......
As the spouse of the Son of Heaven, the queen was originally the mother of all the heirs of the Son of Heaven, although the Han family has not yet had a precedent for the succession of the crown prince, but in terms of etiquette, it makes sense.
And Liu Rong's biological mother, Li Ji, is dead at this time, so it will be easier to do this.
Reasonably, the courtiers couldn't find any reason to refute it at all.
And looking at His Majesty's categorical appearance, it seems that anyone is allowed to have different opinions.
Immediately afterward, there were rumors above this court.
"Your Majesty Shengming!".
"Your Majesty Shengming!".
………………………………
"Would the prince be willing?" , Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, asked again.
Immediately, Liu Rong knelt on the ground and bowed and said: "If you return to your father's words, the queen will be benevolent and virtuous, and her sons will naturally be willing."
It's just that...... It's just ............".
Seeing that Liu Rong was hesitant, Liu Qi, the Son of Heaven, said: "Just how? ”。
"In this matter, the minister will go to Yangling to worship and report to his mother's spirit in the sky."
Liu Rong knows very well that in an era of theists, this kind of drama still has to be done.
In this way, with the "consent" of the deceased mother, the matter is naturally easier to act.
