Chapter 386: The Vietnam Civil War! The Great Canonization! The Will of the King
"His Royal Highness Ning Zheng is mighty!"
"Long live Your Majesty!"
"Long live Your Majesty!"
At first there were only a few thousand people shouting, and then tens of thousands followed.
The last time Ning Qi returned to the national capital, it was greeted by everyone.
This time Ning Zheng triumphed, and the same was true.
It can be seen that the people only have one thing, and that is victory.
Ning Yuanxian enjoyed this moment very much.
His gaze glanced at the ministers.
Some of the courtiers looked indifferent, and some of them were thoughtful.
The situation is now very clear.
His Majesty has already laid out for the canonization of Ning Zheng.
Shen Lang's Nirvana army did not return to the national capital, but was still stationed in Tianxi Province.
What does this prove?
It proves that His Majesty is guarding against the seed family.
Once Ning Zheng was canonized as the crown prince, he was worried that the seed family would jump over the wall in a hurry.
If Shen Lang's army does not enter the national capital, Tianyue City will be empty.
You must know that when Ningqi triumphed before, he led thousands of cavalry into the national capital.
Not only that, Xue Che also served as the governor of Tianyue.
Although Heishuitai Yan E is loyal to the monarch, he is also biased towards Ning Qi in his heart.
In the national capital, there are less than 10,000 city guards loyal to Ning Zheng.
Therefore, the monarch actually invited Arunana, the queen of the Qiang Kingdom, to enter Tianyue City, ostensibly because of the relationship between allies, and invited her to participate in the ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens, but in fact, he borrowed soldiers.
borrowed 10,000 cavalry from the Qiang State.
This is, of course, against the rules.
Attracting an alien army into the capital is really sensational.
Historically, whenever a king invites an alien army into the capital, there is basically no good end.
But again, there is no one-size-fits-all word.
In order to smoothly let Ning Zheng take the throne, Ning Yuanxian still made this decision.
Of course, his move will definitely leave an infamy.
But infamy is infamy, it doesn't matter.
As long as Ning Zheng can be successfully established as the crown prince this time, it doesn't hurt that he Ning Yuanxian will be scolded as a faint monarch.
Since he had Parkinson's disease, he knew that his time was running out, so he looked away a lot.
Ning Yuanxian's layout is more than that.
He has already given secret orders to both Bian Xiao and Zhang Chong.
Especially Zhang Chong.
Last time, in order to deal with King Wu's southern expeditionary army, Zhang Chong led an army of 30,000 into Tianbei Province to assist in the defense of Ningqi.
After that, Ning Qi went to the battlefield of Tianxi Province, but Zhang Chong did not leave.
The monarch ordered Zhang Chong to concurrently serve as the governor of Tianbei Province, and at a critical moment, he could take over the entire Tianbei Province.
After all, Ning Qi has been the Metropolitan Governor of Tianbei Province for more than a year.
Once something happens, Zhang Chong will grasp the military power of the entire Tianbei Province as soon as possible.
There is also Tiannan Province!
For example, today the governor of Nanxing Province is still Zhu Rong, but the monarch ordered Jin Zhuo to serve as the general of Pingnan.
Once something happens in Tiannan Province, Jin Zhuo's family private army can take over the entire Tiannan Province by virtue of the secret decree and directly enter the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion.
And that's not all.
The monarch Ning Yuanxian even sent a secret envoy to negotiate with the monarch.
If Jin Zhuo can't control the situation in Tiannan Province, please ask Jun Jun to respond in the south.
During the period of Ning Zheng's absence.
Guojun Ning Yuanxian began to lay out in several directions in the southeast, northwest, and northwest.
He even made many decisions that were bad for the rules of the kingdom.
There is only one goal, so that Ning Zheng can succeed to the throne smoothly.
In order to achieve this goal, Ning Yuanxian made many bold moves.
In the future, he will definitely leave his infamy in the history books.
..................
Most of the civil and military officials below are shrunk their necks.
They already felt the smell of danger, and the monarch was no longer going to be reasonable.
He was already planning to forcibly canonize Ning Zheng.
If you civil and military officials agree, you will pay it back, if you don't agree.
Don't blame the widow's knife for being too sharp.
Three-legged toads are hard to find, and two-legged people are afraid that they can't find them?
After killing all of you, are you still afraid that you won't find someone to be an official?
Are you following the Zhu family and the seed family to the black?
Or do you take the initiative to reverse your thinking and obey the will of the widow?
Monarch Ning Yuanxian looked at Ning Qi and said, "Uncle Wang, what do you think of your grandson?"
He pointed to Ning Zheng.
Ning Qi's eyes were complicated, he really had no selfish intentions, he really thought Ning Qi was good.
But now it seems that Ning Zheng is also good. Inside, he is biased towards Ningqi. Because Ning Qi is more skillful, having him take over the throne will not cause much turmoil.
If Ning Zheng succeeds to the throne, it will definitely be turned upside down, and Ning Zheng is too upright.
But is it necessary to let the complete disobedience of the king?
Suddenly, Uncle Ning Qi bowed down and said, "His Royal Highness Ning Zheng is resolute and decisive, and he is a good son of His Majesty." ”
Ning Yuanxian was overjoyed and said to Ning Gang: "Uncle Ning Gang, what do you think of Zheng'er?"
Ning Gang is different from Ning Qi. He himself is a resolute person, and he admires Ning Qi very much, but he also admires Ning Zheng. Before Ning Zheng fell in the capital of the king of Chu, he supported Ning Qi. But now that Ning Zheng has returned, the monarch has expressed his attitude so obviously.
That Ning Gang will definitely not go against Ning Yuanxian again.
"His Royal Highness Ning Zheng is very good. Ning Gang said.
In this way, the Privy Council and the Monk Shutai all have giants who support Ning Zheng. Coupled with Bian Xiao, Jin Zhuo, and Zhang Chong, there will be as many as five giants who support Ning Zheng. Although it is still not as strong as Ning Qi's power, it is no longer alone.
"Come, come, come, all your ministers, come to see the king of Qiang. Ning Yuanxian said with a smile.
Suddenly, many ministers bowed down to the king of Qiang, Arunana, and said, "Meet the king of Qiang." ”
Arunana nodded, not too affectionate.
She is a person with a cold face and a warm heart.
"King Qiang, you are very honored to be able to come to participate in the ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens of my Yue Kingdom. Ning Yuanxian said: "Then let's go to the Ancient Altar together, please!"
"King Yue, please!"
Qiang King Arunana was half a step behind Ning Yuanxian.
"Let's drive to the Ancient Altar. ”
Then, the music began again.
Ning Yuanxian led hundreds of civil and military officials, led thousands of Praetorian Guards, and walked to the ancient altar.
Arunana is a little unnatural.
Because she is too tall, she usually walks super fast, but now she will surpass King Yue if she is not careful.
Every time she accidentally went over, she had to control herself, she walked too restrained.
Grandma's, I won't come next time.
Ning Yuanxian felt that his steps were brisk, as if the many illnesses on his body had also improved a lot.
But he still stretched out his hand and said to his son: "I'm old, and it's a little difficult to walk, Ning Zheng, you can help me." ”
Ning Zheng was stunned, and then hurriedly stepped forward and helped Ning Yuanxian walk.
Countless people have seen this scene.
Everyone is more certain that the monarch Ning Yuanxian wants to establish Ning Zheng as the crown prince.
Ning Qi, who was dressed in a golden robe, saw this scene and did not react, his face was as serious as a mountain, and he walked behind in a proper manner.
Zhu Hongzhu, Chong'e, Xue Che and other giants were also expressionless.
Especially Xue Che, he led the team to rob and kill Ning Zheng only a few days ago, and now it was as if nothing had happened.
..............................
More than half an hour later!
Monarch Ning Yuanxian led a mighty team and arrived at the Ancient Altar.
The magnificent ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens has begun again.
But this time, it was no longer Ning Yu who presided over the main hall, but Ning Gang.
Ning Yu's great sect is very disappointing to Ning Yuanxian, so it should be a strong signal that although he is dismissed, he is not allowed to preside over the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony this time.
The entire ceremony of sacrificing to the heavens is still grand and serious.
It is carried out in full accordance with the etiquette system.
Ning Yuanxian completed it meticulously, and even tried his best to restrain his tremors.
The first step is to welcome the emperor and god, the second step is to lay the jade silk, the third step is to enter the palace, and the fourth step is to make the first gift.
At this time, it was time for Ning Zheng to recite the sacrifice to the heavens.
Shen Lang didn't give him any preparation today, not even medicine.
Grand Duke Li Mu also did not dub him.
Because it's no longer needed.
At the ceremony of sacrificing the heavens more than two years ago, although Ning Zheng had served as the governor of Tianyue for a period of time, he had only just entered the political arena and had too little experience.
In the past two years, he has experienced too much.
Not to mention the fierce court struggle, he was pointed at and sprayed more than once in front of the monarch, and was even beaten by the crowd.
There were two or three battles of life and death, and a few days ago there was one of the most terrible assassinations.
Which of these experiences was NOT a catastrophe?
What is stuttering in comparison?
Even he himself forgot the day when the stuttering problem disappeared.
This time, the sacrifice to Tianshu was not written by Shen Lang to catch the knife, but by Ning Zheng and Lan Maniac.
Of course, it's not as gorgeous as the previous one.
But it's also outstanding.
The process of reciting the sacrifice to the heavens was very smooth.
And after two miracle victories, Ning Zheng also seemed to have a halo on his head.
Even if the performance is only 8 points, it has a 10 effect.
Although many people pray in their hearts.
Thunder in the sky, rain in the sky.
It's better to have an earthquake.
That would be considered the wrath of the heavens.
But none of this is possible.
The whole ceremony of worshipping the heavens is sunny and the wind is beautiful.
It was a hot July, but it wasn't even too hot.
A perfect ceremony to worship the heavens.
The fifth step of the main hall, the sixth step...... Step 9.
At noon, the ceremony ended successfully.
Ning Yuanxian was once again supported by Ning Zheng and returned to the palace.
..............................
Inside the palace!
Monarch Ning Yuanxian looked at Ning Zheng for a long time, and said for a while: "You have worked hard. ”
In public, Ning Yuanxian was very affectionate to Ning Zheng.
But when there are only two people in private, the situation is still a little awkward.
After all, Ning Yuanxian was not only indifferent to Ning Zheng before, he was simply regarded as a mustard. Now if you want to become an intimate father and son all of a sudden, it is really difficult for a strong man.
"What do you think of the next situation?" Ning Yuanxian asked.
Ning Zheng said: "Once and for all, the external environment is the best at this time." His Majesty the Emperor has changed from a royal road to a hegemon, and all the kings of the world are trembling, even King Wu is thinking most about how to protect himself at the moment, and will no longer fight my idea of Yue Guo. The king of Chu and the king of Jin, it is even more impossible to start a war against us. Therefore, even if a civil war breaks out within the Chu State, there will be no threat from foreign enemies. ”
As soon as these words came out, Ning Yuanxian was taken aback.
Civil war?
Is it so decisive?
Ning Zheng said: "If you govern a big country and cook small fresh, for some things, Erchen feels that he should think about it slowly. But for some things, it should be swept away in an instant with the momentum of thunder. Floods can be scary, but they can also clean the river from dirt. ”
Guojun Ning Yuanxian said: "You mean to completely destroy the seed clan and destroy the Xue clan?"
Ning Zheng was amazed in his heart, his father had many shortcomings, but he was definitely smart.
Because Ning Yuanxian didn't say to kill the Zhu family.
Zhu is a civil official, although his power in the court covers the sky, but after all, he has no military power.
Therefore, as long as the seed clan and the Xue clan are destroyed, then Ning Qi will be powerless to turn the sky upside down.
Ning Yuanxian closed his eyes, he had given Xue Che a chance.
But...... Xue Che didn't grasp it.
Or, people don't want to be sure at all.
"A few days ago, Xue Che personally led someone to rob and kill you?" Ning Yuanxian asked.
Ning Zheng said: "Yes." The result was very tragic, and in order to protect me, Li Qianqiu, Da Zhuang, Ku Touhuan, Mrs. Li Qianqiu, and everyone else were seriously injured. If it weren't for Bai Yujing's people arriving at the critical moment, Wu Dizi and Grandmaster Futu Mountain would have gone on a killing spree, and in the end, Dasha might have fled with me, and everyone else would have died. ”
Every time he thought of this, Ning Zheng's heart couldn't help but tremble, and the whole person couldn't even return to his soul.
He couldn't imagine how devastating his heart would be once Li Qianqiu and his wife, Ku Touhuan, Tang Yan and others died for him.
Therefore, he is not yet a hard-hearted king.
Ning Yuanxian smiled miserably.
Xue Che's move, does he take him as a monarch in his eyes?
is really a very smart person, he has already climbed the high branches, climbed the Great Yan Empire, and he no longer takes him as a monarch very seriously.
Originally, Ning Yuanxian was unwilling to go to the civil war no matter what.
But Ning Zheng is on the throne, and the Chong clan and the Xue clan will definitely not be restrained.
Unexpectedly, after just experiencing the battle of the country, the country of Yue is about to usher in a civil war.
"If you can destroy the Xue Clan and the Seed Clan, what are you going to do with Ning Qi?" Ning Yuanxian asked.
Ning Zhengdao: "Abolish martial arts and imprison for life." ”
Ning Yuanxian's expression was a little painful, but he still nodded.
Ning Qi is different from other sons, he is too smart and powerful, and he must not be willing to be a rich idler.
If he is allowed to be free and strong, he will definitely make waves.
Ning Zheng just abolished his martial arts and imprisoned him for life, which was already relatively merciful.
Ning Yuanxian didn't let Ning Yuanwu go back then, but he killed him directly.
Ning Yuanxian unfolded the map, once a civil war broke out.
There are about three places on the battlefield, Tianxi Province, Angry Tide City, and the South China Sea Sword Sect.
Tianyue City, the national capital, may or may not become a battlefield.
After this battle, Yue Guo did not know how long he would have to recuperate.
But it doesn't break or stand.
The Chong family is the largest warlord in the Yue Kingdom, and if they can be destroyed, it will be very beneficial to the future of the Yue Kingdom.
Even when the Great Yan Empire was preparing to annex the world, the four kingdoms of Chu, Yue, Qiang, and Danan could be connected.
Ning Yuanxian said: "Once I canonize you as the crown prince, how do you think Ning Qi will react?
Ning Zheng wanted to speak and stopped.
"Say, it's all this time, what else can't be said. Ning Yuanxian said.
Ning Zheng said: "Father, I think the other party may attack you. ”
As soon as these words came out, Ning Yuanxian's face changed.
Ning Zheng continued: "Now no one can stop your will, Ning Qi and Uncle Ning Gang will eventually choose to side with you." You borrowed 10,000 cavalry from the king of Qiang, so it is unlikely that the ministers want to resist the decree, and whoever wants to resist the decree will be on the ground. The neck of my Yue country's courtiers is not so hard. So attacking you is a one-and-done solution for the enemy. ”
Ning Yuanxian nodded slowly.
That's right, it does.
Ning Qi's biggest characteristic is that he does not compromise means.
Be cruel to yourself, to your enemies, to everyone.
Of course, this also includes his father.
In the past, robbing and killing Ning Zheng was the most cost-effective method, but this strategy failed.
Now Ning Zheng is protected by masters such as Li Qianqiu and his wife, Zhong Chuke, Da Zhuang, and Ku Touhuan.
It is impossible to assassinate Ning Zheng in the national capital.
Therefore, attacking Ning Yuanxian is the most cost-effective method.
"According to the sons, it is impossible for them to assassinate their father directly. Ning Zheng said: "But the poison of Futu Mountain is so poisonous that people can't prevent it." ”
Isn't it impossible to prevent it?
The king of Chu died of the poison of Futu Mountain.
Ning Zheng said: "So at this critical moment in the next moment, Erchen invites you to only eat the food cooked by Concubine Bian, Li Falcon, Li En, and Grand Duke Li Mu, there must be two people by your side at all times." And...... It is better not to meet Xue Che and Ning Qi, nor to meet Zhu Hong. ”
Guojun Ning Yuanxian smiled: "You have arranged for the widow to come." ”
Ning Zheng said: "Erchen doesn't dare, but this is a last resort." ”
Guojun Ning Yuanxian said: "Okay, it's up to you." During this time, I only ate the food cooked by Concubine Bian, and only spent the night in Concubine Bian's palace, and I did not see any suspicious courtiers privately. I want to see if Ningqi and them will really rebel?"
..................
Ning Zheng returned to the Marquis of Changping's mansion.
The entire capital fell into an eerie silence.
People with a keen sense of smell have already sensed the posture of being good at mountain rain.
The 10,000 cavalry of the Qiang State came too unusually.
Even if the queen of the Qiang Kingdom is invited to visit the Yue Kingdom, is it necessary to bring 10,000 cavalry?
Moreover, Shen Lang's Nirvana army has been staying in Tianxi Province and cannot leave.
What does that mean?
And His Royal Highness Ning Qi, does it seem too calm?
Including Zhu Hongzhu and Chong E, Xue Che and others.
Today, there was no adoptive reaction from beginning to end, and there was no sense of disaster at all.
On the contrary, there is a kind of confidence?
No, you can't use that word.
It should be said that it is a resolute decision.
..................
That evening!
The king of Chu held a small banquet and entertained the queen of the Qiang state.
From beginning to end, Ning Yuanxian only drank three glasses of fruit wine.
These three glasses of wine were all handled by Li Falcon.
Fortunately, Arunana didn't care about these pomp and circumstance at all, and the banquet was over in less than an hour.
Under the protection of Li Ying and Li Mu, Ning Yuanxian returned to the study to handle government affairs.
In order to guarantee absolute security.
Ning Yuanxian didn't even touch the courtiers' memoranda anymore, and all of them were copied by Li Falcon and then handed them to him.
Moreover, he barely met anyone.
Except for Li Falcon, Li Mu, Li En, and Concubine Bian, almost no one could get within five steps of him.
That evening!
When Ning Yuanxian summoned Yan E, the Governor of Heishuitai, he was separated by more than ten meters.
Yan Er even knelt in the outer hall.
"Yan E, I know that you have a very good relationship with Yan Nanfei and Xue Che. Ning Yuanxian said: "Even Xue Che is still your old boss, so I want to ask you, is this Heishui Platform still a widowed Heishui Platform?"
Yan E kowtowed heavily and said, "Heishuitai will always belong to His Majesty. ”
Ning Yuanxian said: "This is a bit exaggerated, no one trusted Xue Che before, so many people in Heishui Tai are from the South China Sea Sword Sect. In the hearts of many people, Heishuitai is just a position, and the South China Sea Sword Sect is the eternal origin. ”
Yan Er said: "But at least this part of the people led by the minister will always obey His Majesty's orders. ”
Ning Yuanxian said: "Do you think Ning Zheng or Ning Qi, which one is more suitable to succeed?"
Yan Er said: "The minister has no will of his own, and whoever His Majesty thinks is suitable, he will be suitable." ”
Ning Yuanxian said: "I plan to make Ning Zheng the crown prince, what do you think?"
Yan Er said: "The minister unconditionally obeys any will of His Majesty. ”
Ning Yuanxian waved his hand and said, "Okay, then you can go." ”
Yan Er kowtowed and said, "The minister retreats." ”
A moment later.
Ning Yuanxian summoned the eldest princess Ning Jie again.
"Ning Jie, do you think Ning Zheng or Ning Qi, which one is better?"
The eldest princess Ning Jie said: "With my own heart, I think Ning Qi is higher, but I completely obey the will of Brother Wang. ”
Ning Yuanxian said: "What about me, I stuffed you to the Black Water Platform at that time to weigh Xue Che's strength. Later, in order to avoid Xue Che's strength, he was even completely transferred from Heishuitai for nearly ten years. Now in Heishui Taichung, are there many people who are loyal to you?"
The eldest princess Ning Jie said: "It's not much. ”
She is too bland, so there are people who follow her in Heishui Taizhong, but there are really not many.
Ning Yuanxian said: "I plan to make Ning Zheng the crown prince, do you support it?"
The eldest princess Ning Jie said: "I obey the will of Brother Wang. ”
Ning Yuanxian said: "Well, if something happens in the future, Ning Qi wants to rebel, what should you do?"
The eldest princess Ning Jie said: "Do your best to quell the rebellion for the country." ”
Ning Yuanxian nodded and said, "That's hard work for you." ”
The eldest princess Ning Jie left.
After summoning these two people, Ning Yuanxian planned to return to the harem to sleep.
A moment later, there was a figure in the room.
His eternal pride is also his eternal pain.
Princess Ning Han.
The heir of the Pavilion of the End of the World.
She walked in.
But when he was still five feet away from Ning Yuanxian, a powerful force appeared in the room.
Grand Duke Li Mu, a grandmaster-level powerhouse.
He faithfully discharged his duties and was not to be approached by anyone except a limited number of people.
Ning Han glanced in the direction of Father-in-law Li Mu.
An understatement glance.
Stop!
Father-in-law Li Mu only felt a sharp pain in his brain, as if it was about to crack.
But Ning Han did not completely approach Ning Yuanxian, but stood still in front of Sanchi.
"Father, have you already made up your mind to make Ning Zheng the crown prince?" asked Ning Han.
Ning Yuanxian smiled bitterly and said, "Han'er, you have come back to see me twice in the past twenty years. The first time was to warn Shen Lang, and the second time was to warn me?
Ning Han was silent.
Ning Yuanxian said: "Ning Yi is no good, are you on Ning Qi's side again?"
Princess Ning Han said: "Ning Yi is no good, Ning Qi is the most suitable." But as far as I'm concerned, whoever inherits the throne in Yue can do it, but Ning Zheng can't?"
"Oh?" Ning Yuanxian smiled: "It seems that in your heart, the weight of the Yue Kingdom is far less than that of the Great Yan Empire." My courtiers want to climb the high branches, and my daughter is no exception? You are really loyal to the empire, you know that after Ning Zheng ascends to the throne, he will definitely not cooperate with the emperor's will, do you want me to be annexed so much? Don't forget that you are also a member of the Ning royal family, if you still admit it. ”
Ning Han didn't explain, and he didn't care about Ning Yuanxian's sarcasm.
After a long while, she spoke: "Father, on the contrary, I am here to cross the country. Once Ning Zheng succeeds to the throne, the centuries-old foundation of my Ning royal family will be destroyed. ”
Ning Yuanxian said: "Oh, why? Just because he is unwilling to kneel, just because he wants to fight against His Majesty the Supreme Emperor?"
Princess Ning Han said: "This is only one of the reasons, and there is another reason. ”
Ning Yuanxian said: "What?"
Ning Han said: "Shen Lang." ”
Ning Yuanxian said: "Then do you want to say that you want Ning Zheng to succeed to the throne, unless I kill Shen Lang now?"
Princess Ning Han said, "I didn't say that. ”
Ning Yuanxian said: "I don't want to, you haven't regarded yourself as my daughter before." Then don't interfere in my affairs now, although you are the heir of the Tianya Sea Pavilion, but His Majesty the Emperor's will is clear, and transcendent forces cannot interfere in the affairs of the secular kingdom. ”
Then, Ning Yuanxian said again: "Okay, I'm already a little tired, and I'm going to rest." ”
He directly ordered the eviction.
This daughter also made him extremely disappointed.
Ning Han supported Ning Yi, and he fully understood, because the two were born to the same mother.
But the end of the world pavilion actually sent someone to assassinate Ning Zheng?
What is the reason for this?
You and Ning Qi are half-siblings, but you and Ning Zheng are also half-siblings.
So in Ning Yuanxian's eyes, everything about Ning Han was because of his loyalty to the empire.
Ning Han suddenly said: "Father, please believe that I also love Yue Guo in my heart. Everything I have done is for the hundred-year foundation of the Ning royal family, farewell!"
Then, Princess Ning Han turned around and left.
This sentence seems so abrupt.
..................
The next day's pilgrimage!
Everyone felt a suffocating atmosphere.
Because it's not yet dawn.
The cavalry of the Qiang State outside the city had already been divided into two groups, guarding the west and south sides of Tianyue.
Immediately afterwards, more than 10,000 city guards all climbed the city wall.
The four gates of the national capital are closed.
Then five thousand Praetorian Guards, heavily armed, entered the palace in the tide.
The atmosphere was so solemn.
Your Majesty, what is this going to do?
This court meeting is like a Hongmen banquet.
Although there was no banquet.
Is this the will of the ministers to be forcibly suppressed?
Is this to forcibly canonize Ning Zheng as the crown prince?
Once someone disobeys the order, they will immediately go on a killing spree?
The civil and military ministers of the national capital almost trembled, and the two trembled.
I really hate that I have to go to the court, so is it okay to stay at home?
Otherwise, above the court, the monarch forces everyone to stand, what should I do?
If Zhu Hongzhu, Chong'e, Xue Che and others all resist and disobey the decree at that time?
How should the ministers choose?
On the side of the monarch?
In the future, it may be liquidated by the Great Yan Empire.
On Ningqi's side?
The king's knife is about to be cut off, and everyone's heads are not hard.
It's okay to stand and shout for your third prince when you usually stand up, but it's not worth throwing your head for this.
There are even quite a few courtiers who feel that His Royal Highness Ning Zheng seems to be not bad.
Although after he takes office, he will definitely be very strict, it will be difficult for everyone to be corrupt, and it will be difficult for lazy government.
But it could be a good thing for Vietnam.
But no matter how scared they were, the ministers still had to go to court.
..................
Outside the court, there was a dense crowd of Praetorian Guards, fully armed, ready to rush in at any time.
This is the most direct form of intimidation.
In the court, the ministers were silent.
Only the sound of a pounding heartbeat, I really didn't even dare to breathe.
I waited for a while.
The monarch Ning Yuanxian finally appeared.
He sat directly on the throne.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty. ”
The ministers knelt down and saluted.
Ning Yuanxian was wearing a royal robe, but the armor inside was exposed.
Is this accidental?
Of course not, this is a warning to the ministers.
The widow has made any preparations.
Today, this will be done, and if it is not done, it will be done.
Who dares to resist the decree?
Then don't blame the widow's knife for being too sharp.
"Zhu Qing is flat. ”
Then, Ning Yuanxian said with a smile: "This battle of national fortune has been fought for more than a year, and finally won, it is not easy, I will not lose an inch of land in the country, it is really blessed by God, blessed by my ancestors." ”
The ministers bowed and said, "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty." ”
Ning Yuanxian said: "In this battle, Ning Qi has made a great contribution, not bad, not bad!"
Then, Ning Yuanxian said again: "Nangong Ao, this thief has surrendered, and the Privy Council is missing another one, all the ministers, can there be a prince in the Privy Council among all the countries in the world?"
Is there anything you don't know?
In the north of the state of Wu, when the old king Wu was in power, his younger brother Wu Zhi was in the Privy Council.
Now that the young King Wu has succeeded to the throne, Wu Zhi has served as a privy envoy.
"Your Majesty, there are such examples. ”
"Yes, that's good. If not, it would not be easy for me to set a precedent. Ning Yuanxian said: "Ning Qi has a lot of credit, and it can't be rewarded if you don't reward it." He was dismissed from the post of Metropolitan Governor of Ningqi Tianbei Province and canonized as the third deputy envoy of the Privy Council. ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone trembled.
Is it so obvious to suppress His Royal Highness Ning Qi?
Directly dismissed the governor of Tianbei Province?
Entering the Privy Council, of course, is a promotion, but there is only one.
Ning Qi came out and said: "The son is grateful to his father Wang Longen. ”
Ning Yuanxian said again: "In this way, the governor of Tianbei Province is vacant. By the way, how long has Zhang Chong been the governor of Yanzhou?"
"It's been two and a half years. ”
"Oh, has it been so long?" Ning Yuanxian said: "Zhang Chong has been in Yanzhou for more than two years, and he has indeed done a good job, very good. Then Zhang Chong will act as the governor of Tianbei Province. ”
Ning Yuanxian did not go through Shangshutai this time, and directly determined Zhang Chong's official position.
After that, Ning Yuanxian looked at Zhu Hongzhu and the others.
Don't you come out against it?
Zhu Hongzhu bowed his head and was silent, as if he had not heard anything, and had no intention of objecting.
After waiting for a while, Ning Yuanxian and the others jumped out to object.
As a result, there was not a single one.
Ning Yuanxian continued: "In this battle of national fortune, the greatest credit is Ning Zheng. It was he who repelled the main force of the Emperor and kept the province of Tiannan. It was he who raided the capital of the king of Chu, which led to the retreat of the state of Chu, and finally it was he who signed a new armistice agreement with the king of Chu, so that I did not lose an inch of land. He preserved the dignity of the Ning royal family, and also preserved the integrity of the land of our Yue Kingdom. ”
"Such a credit cannot be unappreciated. ”
"Decree that Ning Zheng be canonized as the Duke of Yueguo!"
As soon as these words came out, the ministers trembled slightly.
It's finally here!
Yue Guogong is only half a step away from the position of the crown prince.
The key is to look at Your Majesty's posture, and he doesn't plan to buffer.
It stands to reason that the Duke of Yue Guo should be canonized first, and then wait for a year and a half, so that everyone in the world is completely psychologically prepared, and then canonized as the crown prince.
But Ning Yuanxian obviously didn't plan to do that.
He wants to go all out and directly push Ning Zheng to the position of prince today.
Because the cavalry of the Qiang State will go after all.
In another year and a half, I wonder how the situation will change?
In order to avoid long nights and dreams, it is better to do it in one step.
Ning Yuanxian said: "The widow canonized Ning Zheng as the Duke of Yueguo, who is in favor and who is against?"
The audience was still silent.
Ning Yuanxian's eyes were like eagle falcons, if anyone dared to stand up against it at this time, it would basically be a head on the ground.
Everyone's head is not so iron.
Once the king turns his face, it will still be difficult for the ministers to resist.
Emperor Wanli is such a powerful person, and he also pays attention to forbearance for the country, and he has not been in court for decades and has not started to kill.
Emperor Chongzhen was a dick, and after breaking through the limit of patience, he directly attacked the ministers.
How many ministers did he kill during his reign?
Most kings were not born to kill, but were forced to do so.
Once you start killing, it means that the situation has collapsed to the point of almost no return.
Emperor Chongzhen is not as good as Wanli, but once he stabs at the ministers, the ministers are still difficult to resist.
His eyes were undisguised and murderous, holding a string of Buddhist beads in his hand, trembling and playing.
Thousands of Praetorian Guards outside, sword hilt in hand, ready to draw at any moment.
Ning Yuanxian smiled slowly and asked Zhu Hongzhu: "Father, the widow canonized Ning Zheng as the Duke of Yueguo, do you approve or oppose it?"
