Volume 2 Chapter 90 One Breath
What does "the two dragons don't meet" mean, does it mean that the emperor can't see the prince?
What are you kidding, how can the emperor not see the crown prince, not talk about the relationship between father and son, just talk about this issue of authority, when the emperor can let the prince not be bound by him, can he do whatever he wants?
This is impossible.
The so-called "most ruthless imperial family", if the emperor ignores the prince, the prince may rebel against him and force him to step down, or it is possible that other princes will directly kill the prince and then force him to step down, such as Emperor Sui, Tang Taizong, etc.
Obviously, it is absolutely impossible to be the emperor without seeing the prince, and if you see each other, you have to die, so you have to do it!
Jiajing thought about it for a long time, but he still couldn't figure it out, so he could only humbly ask for advice: "Real person, what does it mean that these two dragons don't see each other?" ”
Tao Zhongwen pretended to be a ghost and pinched his fingers for a long time, and then he chattered: "Your Majesty, I am afraid that there are several meanings of this god, and the lower officials only know a little about the two." ”
When Jiajing heard this, he couldn't help but be curious: "Oh, is there a lot of God's meaning?" You have realized something, tell me quickly. ”
Tao Zhongwen couldn't help but feel proud in his heart, but on the surface, he said seriously: "The first meaning of this god is probably that the emperor is not pious enough." ”
Yes!
What does it mean to be not pious enough, Jiajing feels that he is already very religious, he doesn't even care about the government, isn't he pious enough?
Tao Zhongwen then explained: "Your Majesty, think about it, what you are cultivating is the way of immortality, if you are immortal, why do you need a prince? ”
When Jiajing heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned.
That's right, since he can live forever, why do you need a prince, as long as he doesn't die, he will always be the emperor!
Thinking of this, he nodded slightly and said, "The real person is right, I really didn't expect this, prince, but the foundation of the country, I have to stand up." ”
Hehe, do you still want to be a prince?
Tao Zhongwen then said solemnly: "Your Majesty, please forgive Weichen for saying a big disrespectful word, the second meaning of the gods is probably warning the emperor." Your Majesty, since you have cultivated the way of immortality, you should not set up a prince, if you don't establish it, the world will be peaceful, if you do, then the two dragons will fight, the prince will always grow up, and when he is about to grow old, he will not be able to succeed to the throne, emperor, think about it, will he be willing? ”
This one!
Jiajing really didn't think about the question of the crown prince's succession, if he can really live forever, can the prince still succeed to the throne?
If he doesn't die and the crown prince succeeds to the throne, there are only two possibilities, either he gives the throne to the prince, or the prince imprisons him or even kills him and takes the throne!
Zen this kind of thing, only a fool will do, all dynasties, Zen things are not no one has done, however, the initiative of the Zen position, generally has no good end, of course, many emperors Zen position is forced, forced Zen position, then the end is even more miserable.
Don't say anything else, just say this harem, you are in the Zen position, what should you do with the concubines in this harem, do you continue to raise it?
The harem concubines are not one or two, and the expenses are not ordinarily large, and there is also the problem of heirs, will the emperor who succeeds to the throne willingly raise so many concubines for you?
What if you have a bunch of princes who come out and snatch the throne with him!
Therefore, it is impossible to Zen the Zen position, and whoever is Zen is a fool.
Since you can't Zen the throne, it's dangerous, and setting up a prince is simply forcing someone to take the throne!
This time, Jiajing finally "figured it out", and he nodded convincingly: "God is right, this prince really can't stand!" ”
It's done!
When Tao Zhongwen heard this, he almost didn't laugh out loud, this Jiajing is really foolish!
This thing seems absurd, but it is a historical fact, after the death of Zhu Zaili, the prince of Zhuang Jing, Jiajing really did not set up a prince again, until he died, Zhu Zaikun was only King Yu, not the prince.
As for the reason, on the surface, it is because of Tao Zhongwen's sentence "The two dragons don't meet", but in fact, this thing is Yan Song's ghost.
Because Tao Zhongwen can be said to have no quarrel with the world, there is no need to intervene in such a dangerous matter as the dispute between the princes, and Yan Song must prevent Yuwang Zhu Zaikun from succeeding him as the crown prince.
At that time, Yuwang Zhu Zaikun was close to Xu Jie, Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng, Chen Yiqin and other Qingliu, he, a big corrupt official, naturally could not let Yuwang succeed him as the crown prince, otherwise, Xu Jie, Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng, Chen Yiqin and other Qingliu would not kill him!
Of course, at this time, he can't let Yuwang Zhu Zaikun succeed him as the crown prince, because Yuwang Zhu Zaikun's master is his rival Yang Cong, this guy is much more powerful than Xu Jie's gang.
Jiajing was fooled by Tao Zhongwen, when even if he extinguished the mind of the prince, the aftermath of the prince Zhu Zaili of Zhuang Jing was completed, he covered his head and cultivated, and the government was handed over to the cabinet to deal with, and at the same time, he also promoted Huang Jin to be the master of ceremonies and the commander of the East Factory, thinking that he was overseer.
As for the establishment of the crown prince, he did not mention it.
This time, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, except for Yan Song, everyone else is inexplicable, the emperor does not appoint a prince, isn't this a joke?
If the prince does not stand, the court will not be at peace!
Everyone didn't understand what was going on with Jiajing, only Yang Cong, after receiving Lu Bing's secret letter, was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
Tao Zhongwen pretended to be a ghost, so naturally he couldn't hide it from Lu Bing, after all, Lu Bing was responsible for Jiajing's safety, Tao Zhongwen took a group of outsiders to dance in the Qianqing Palace, and it was impossible for Lu Bing not to guard him.
What "the two dragons don't meet", why since you don't need to establish a prince since you are immortal, it's all!
Others may not be sure if Jiajing can live forever, but Yang Cong knows quite well that Jiajing will also die, otherwise, there will be no Longqing, Wanli or something in the future.
Are you a idiot, you actually believe Tao Zhongwen's nonsense and don't make a prince, isn't this forcing me to fight Yan Song to the death!
This time, Yang Cong was really angry with Jiajing, all dynasties, I don't know how many bloody lessons, Jiajing turned a blind eye, and was tricked by Yan Song not to establish a prince, can you fuck him a little more?
He knew that this matter must have been done by Yan Song, and it was impossible for a cautious person like Tao Zhongwen to jump out and participate in the dispute for the crown prince for no reason.
Yan Song knows, and he knows even better, once King Yu Zhu Zaikun succeeds to the crown prince, it will be the end of Yan Song.
At this time, the prince is in charge of the country, Zhuang Jing Prince Zhu Zaili is afraid of him Yan Song, and he does not dare to cross in the slightest, Yuwang Zhu Zaikun is the prince, will he still be afraid of Yan Song?
Just kidding, Yuwang Zhu Zaikun has his support behind him, once he succeeds to the crown prince, he will be the real prisoner, not everything depends on Yan Song's face.
When the time comes, Yan Song will not be lifted by him!
This kind of thing is obvious, the Manchu Dynasty civil and military, few are not clear, but Jiajing was fooled into believing what nonsense "the two dragons don't meet", so as not to establish a prince, do you have a brain?
Yang Cong was really completely disappointed in Jiajing, from the maritime tycoon to Zhao Wenhua, from Zhu Sudao Zeng Milling, from Qiu Luan to Yan Maoqing, Jiajing showed his confusion all the time.
Is such a foolish person really suitable to be an emperor?
