Chapter 415: Your Majesty is finally going to make a crown prince!
The Shenzhou Continent, which has been calm for many years, has ushered in a melee.
The Yuan State invaded the Qi State on a large scale, and the two countries were in full swing.
Wei attacked Yan in the north, and the two countries fought in full swing.
Now, the states of Zhao and Xia are about to enter the war.
Six of the seven kingdoms of Shenzhou participated in the war, and only the most powerful Qin remained!
Today's Qin Emperor is also a person in his twilight years, and it is his dream to expand the territory, but it is a pity that the north of the Qin State is an endless ice sea and snow field, and the west and north are the uninhabited Gobi Desert, and the only way to expand the territory is the east!
The Qin State has coveted the entire Shenzhou Continent and the entire rich East for many years, and now that the Great War of the Six Kingdoms is imminent, the Qin State seems to have waited for a godsend!
Before the storm, there was only a rare tranquility.
Kyoto, the country of summer.
The news of the mobilization of the Zhao army has been transmitted back to Kyoto, and the Xia Emperor has already had some leftovers, and immediately ordered the major military marquis and border guards, once the Zhao army invades the land of the Xia country, kill!
Chen Qingzhi also passed on Yu Chiyong's strategy to Xiao Rui through the spear falcon, Wei Chiyong thought that he was secretly Chen Cang, pretending to attack Miaozhou, thinking that this plan was seamless, but he had already been seen by Jia Xu, Guo Jia, Han Xin, and Chen Qingzhi.
Although Wei Chiyong had an army of 120,000, he had to divide his troops into two routes, all the way to the south to attack the Xifeng Pass of Yan State, and all the way to the east to attack Chen Qingzhi of Xiangzhou of Xia State. Therefore, Chen Qingzhi can face only 50,000 or 60,000 enemy troops, Chen Qingzhi has 60,000 elites in his hands, and he is not afraid of him with one enemy and two enemies.
So Xiao Rui didn't worry about them at all, and what Xiao Rui had to do now was still the crown prince.
When he returned to Beijing, His Majesty mentioned to Xiao Rui that it was not a solution to delay the position of the crown prince, and it should be eyebrows, which showed that His Majesty had decided to establish the crown prince.
Now in Kyoto, only the eldest prince Xiao Lie, the king of Jin, the third prince Xiao Ze and Xiao Rui, the third prince Wu Wang, Xiao Feng has already set off for Yinzhou, he has made contributions, and he has not given up the battle for the throne. Maybe in his opinion, it doesn't matter who the crown prince is, there are countless princes who have been deposed in the past dynasties, and when he becomes a prince, he will definitely be able to sit on the throne?
In the past six months, too many things have happened in Kyoto. The Duke of Sui, the Duke of Xi, and the Duke of England fell, the King of Chu died, King Jing was lame, the King of Tang served in Hangzhou, and King Duan served in Yinzhou. And among the only three remaining princes, do you still need to choose?
Xiao Lieshu, the king of Jin, was too angry, and if he became the prince in the future, he could only keep it.
Wu Wang Xiao Ze is smart, but people are afraid of comparison.
Today's Xiao Rui's fame and prestige have been pushed extremely high. Of course, there are both natural and man-made reasons for this.
The opponents began to kill Xiao Rui, making him prosperous, thus arousing His Majesty's jealousy! In their opinion, no emperor would tolerate the power of the prince and the opposition!
Xiao Rui naturally knew about this matter, and he originally wanted to keep a low profile, but Jia Xu and Guo Jia disagreed, and there were two people to check it, so Xiao Rui didn't bother to ask.
And in the past few days, Jia Xu, Guo Jia and Li Mingchong, the first assistant of the cabinet, have been very close, and the three of them don't know what big things they are plotting. Xiao Rui took the elixir kneaded by the Meat Buddha and began to exercise his martial arts. Li Yuanfang has successfully entered the six-rank realm, which also gives Xiao Rui motivation, and he strives to break through to the fourth-rank martial artist in the shortest possible time!
The time came to the last day of the first month of the twenty-fourth year of Yongli in Great Xia.
Today's early dynasty, after the dull and trivial political affairs, everyone thought that the early dynasty was coming to an end, and when Emperor Xia was also preparing to retire from the dynasty, Li Ming, the first assistant of the cabinet who closed his eyes and recuperated, suddenly got up and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Weichen has something to do!" ”
"Oh, what does Li Aiqing want to report?" Emperor Xia asked.
"Your Majesty, the country cannot be without a prince for a day, and the delay in the position of the crown prince will not only affect the hearts of the people and the army, but also affect the national fortunes of Great Xia! Weichen is bold, and his majesty must establish the prince early! ”
After Li Mingchong finished speaking, he fell to his knees.
As the chief assistant of the cabinet, he has the power of prime minister, and has the obligation and responsibility to remind His Majesty to choose the crown prince.
But the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were shocked, after all, those officials who stiffened their necks and suggested the establishment of the crown prince were all killed for various reasons, and now no one dares to point fingers and let His Majesty do what he is not willing to do!
So Li Ming's conflict was so bold that it was everyone's surprise.
Xiao Rui was also stunned, Li Mingchong did this play, and he didn't discuss it with himself at all!
Wait a minute...
I see, Jia Xu, Guo Jia and Li Mingchong's recent plot is this matter!
It's just that this one is so bold! They knew that after telling Xiao Rui, the cautious Xiao Rui would not agree, so they asked Li Mingchong to directly cut it first.
In Jia Xu and Guo Jia's view, when strength and prestige accumulate to a certain stage, they must be sublimated! If His Majesty is Emperor Yan, Emperor Zhao and the like, Jia Xu, who knows how to protect himself best, would dare to do this? He will definitely let Xiao Ruitao keep his light up, accumulate strength in secret, be a good baby, forbearance, and secretly be a shadowy person.
Fortunately, Emperor Xia is not such a person!
A master will choose the prince at the right time.
Now that the national war is imminent, within ten days and a half months, the war will start, and at this moment, it is the time to select the prince to inspire the hearts of the people and the army, and stabilize the national fortunes of Great Xia!
So Jia Xu and Guo Jia explained Li Mingchong.
Li Mingchong would never have dared to do it, but he couldn't stand the lobbying of the two, gritted his teeth, and took this important step, and Li Mingchong's heart was also worried at this moment.
On the dragon chair, Emperor Xia was stunned, he didn't expect Li Mingchong, who had always known how to protect himself, to dare to say this, looking at his worried look, Emperor Xia was happy, this old guy seemed to be instigated.
Looking at Xiao Rui in the crowd again, this kid was also stunned, he didn't have the courage to do this, this kid was still very cautious.
The other ministers of civil and military affairs, even more unable to lobby Li Mingchong, are all juniors.
It seems that the two strategists around Xiao Qi are both masters, and it was they who persuaded Li Mingchong... These two people actually grasped the timing very accurately, and guessed my mind so thoroughly, what a talent! I don't know what kind of shit luck Xiao Qi has gotten to win over such two talents in governing the country.
Thinking of this, Emperor Xia was happy for him.
The country can't be without a monarch for a day, and naturally it can't be without a prince, and if it drags on for so long, it's time to set up a prince, looking at the history of the entire Shenzhou continent, how can there be a country that can never have a prince for more than 20 years?
I persevered and waited for the time.
Just when there was silence in the Golden Palace, Emperor Xia coughed lightly and said with a smile: "Li Aiqing is reasonable!" The country can't be without a prince for a day, for the sake of the national fortune of Great Xia, I should think about it! ”
When Li Mingchong heard this, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and then he felt admiration, and the two gentlemen Wenhe and Fengxiao really expected things like gods.
After hearing this, the Manchu civil and military forces turned from stunned to dumbfounded.
Your Majesty agreed? Your Majesty actually agreed?
The Minister of Civil and Military Affairs immediately pricked up his ears and listened carefully.
King Xiao Lie's eyes lit up, but then dimmed.
He is self-aware of himself, his sister-in-law is dead, and now the eldest son is him, but the sister-in-law has not been established as the prince, so he has a chance as an eldest son?
In this life, in fact, the most difficult thing is self-knowledge.
Wu Wang Xiao Ze's eyes also had a look, but when he saw Xiao Rui next to him, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, people are afraid of comparison, and it will be embarrassing to compare. He boasts that he is also very good, and he doesn't like to use intrigue and trickery, and hopes to make more political achievements and let his father see his efforts, but no matter how hard he tries, he can't compare to a better person after all.
At this time, His Majesty said again: "Since Li Aiqing proposed to make a prince, who do you think is the most suitable among my princes?" ”
Li Mingchong wanted to say that it was His Royal Highness King Xian, but did he dare? He wouldn't dare to do this!
"Your Majesty, the candidate for the crown prince is the dictatorship of Your Majesty's Sacred Heart, and Weichen does not dare to overstep it!" Li Mingchong hurriedly said.
Xia Huang smiled: "Li Aiqing is not afraid! I just ask you to say what you think, you can say it directly, and if you say the wrong thing, I will forgive you! ”
"This..."Li Mingchong hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that His Royal Highness King Xian, the seventh son of the emperor, is filial piety and gentle and courteous, and he can be the choice of the prince. ”
Emperor Xia nodded and asked, "What about the others?" Are there any other thoughts? Speak bluntly, I am not guilty! ”
When the civil and military officials looked at each other, Cui Changwen, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, came out and said: "Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that His Royal Highness King Xian is a martial all-rounder, and he is a candidate for the East Palace after His Majesty's holy virtue!"
Immediately afterwards, Song Ci, Guo Ziyi and other officials who supported Xiao Rui came out to speak out, praising Xiao Rui's virtue and being a candidate for the crown prince.
On the other hand, only a few officials who supported the kings of Jin and Wu remained silent. With so many officials in unison, there is already a suspicion of forcing the palace, could it be that King Xian thinks that he can force His Majesty if he wins the battle?
It's really overwhelming!
These few officials are waiting for His Majesty to thunder and rage!
But...
What happened next left the handful of officials stunned.
Emperor Xia actually nodded and said, "Since you Aiqing praise King Xian so much, it must be the will of the people!" I'm so pleased! I'll think about it. ”
"Yes!" The officials who came out of the queue then gave up their hands and retreated.
And those few officials stood there dumbfounded, with a kind of messy bewilderment in the wind.
The early dynasty ended, and the hundred officials retreated.
When he left the palace, almost all the officials said goodbye to Xiao Rui, whether they supported him or not. The actions of the dynasty this morning, and the signals from His Majesty, have made it impossible for these officials to maintain their previous indifference.
Xiao Rui returned the salute one by one, and when he saw everyone leave, he happened to see Xiao Lie and Xiao Ze coming from behind.
The two nodded, as if they were greeting.
Xiao Rui smiled back.
The three of them got into the carriage and went home, driving in three directions, with different lives.
When Xiao Rui returned to the mansion, he said to Jia Xu and Guo Jia: "The two gentlemen have hidden it from me so hard!" ”
Jia Xu stroked his beard and said with a smile: "My subordinates are deeply sorry, but if this matter is told to His Highness in advance, His Highness will definitely not agree." ”
Xiao Rui nodded and said with emotion: "I'm not too cautious, I just feel that my strength is not enough." ”
Guo Jia reminded: "Your Highness, you are the crown prince first, not the emperor. Your Highness's current connections and prestige can support you in the East Palace. But if you want to become Your Majesty, strength is really not enough. ”
Xiao Rui was stunned, and then he realized that his positioning was wrong!
If it is to seize the throne and follow Li Shimin, then his strength is indeed not enough, although there are many civil officials and military generals who support him, but he has no ability to win the throne, but is he grabbing the throne?
No!
I just want to be a prince!
You don't need so much power to be a prince!
Now his abilities and qualifications are far superior to those of other princes, and he has proven himself to be outstanding!
And this was originally His Majesty's idea, His Majesty has let the prince serve since last year, isn't it just to let the princes compete and choose the crown prince?
Now you have won and come out on top!
Xiao Rui smiled awkwardly, patted his forehead, and said, "Mr. Wenhe, Fengxiao, it's my magic barrier!" ”
Guo Jia and Jia Xu couldn't help laughing.
At the same time, the events of the early morning dynasty quickly spread throughout Kyoto.
Your Majesty is going to make a prince...
King Xian is very likely to enter the East Palace...
These two pieces of news instantly spread all over Kyoto and became the hottest topic at the moment.
