Chapter 270: Tanuki for Prince

On the morning of October 21, 1672 in the Han calendar, still in the study of the main hall of the Tianjing Palace, the eldest prince Liu Jiarui said to Yang Guanghao, commander-in-chief of the Han Army, with a gloomy face: "Do you have to explain the matter of the eldest princess and my little nephew?" ”

Yang Guanghao said with an embarrassed face: "Your Highness is angry, I have sent an infantry battalion to surround the villa where Her Royal Highness the eldest princess lives, and it stands to reason that even a fly can't fly out, but after the infantry battalion surrounded outside the villa entered the villa, it was found that there were only some ordinary servants left in the villa, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess and your little nephew, as well as the guards around Her Royal Highness the eldest princess were gone." ”

"Bang-" With a bang, the eldest prince Liu Jiarui slapped the table in front of him fiercely, "Not even a fly can fly out, so why did the eldest princess and my little nephew disappear?" How the hell did they get out of that villa? Do you know that the disappearance of the eldest princess is likely to cause great trouble? ”

The eldest prince Liu Jiarui's rhetorical question made Yang Guanghao's head break out in a cold sweat, don't look at Liu Jiarui's usual gentle appearance, but Yang Guanghao knows very well in his heart how ruthless Liu Jiarui's heart is.

Yang Guanghao then said cautiously: "Your Highness, rest assured, I have ordered the troops to launch a search and arrest in the whole city, and I will definitely find out Her Royal Highness the eldest princess and your little nephew!" ”

Liu Jiarui snorted coldly, "Did you find the horse?" ”

Yang Guanghao said with an embarrassed expression: "Your Highness, I have found a tunnel in the manor on the outskirts of Tianjing City, but I haven't found a colt yet. ”

The look on Liu Jiarui's face suddenly calmed down again, "Commander-in-Chief Yang, the eldest princess has a huge influence among the people, and the concubine has an unquestionable status in the navy and air force, such as the situation in the capital today, which has basically been controlled, I don't want to cause any other waves because of the eldest princess and the concubine, which will affect the enthronement ceremony on the first of next month." ”

Yang Guanghao hurriedly said: "Your Highness, not only Tianjing City, now that the major military regions of the country have been completely controlled by our people, there will definitely be no changes that will affect His Highness's enthronement ceremony." ”

The eldest prince Liu Jiarui then pondered for a while and said: "I thought about it for a long time last night, and I feel that the purge of the navy and army should not affect too much, it is best to control this purge in the high-level, as long as the high-level people are replaced by people who are loyal to me, after all, it is not easy to establish a world-class air force and a world-class navy, I am worried that once this purge is expanded, it will destroy the foundation of our Dahan Air Force and Dahan Navy." ”

At present, the Dahan Air Force has more than 1,500 fourth-generation fighters and more than 100 third-generation fighters, all of which were sold by Su Yi to the Dahan Kingdom.

Although because of the ongoing war between the Gothic Kingdom and the Kingdom of Niga and the Kingdom of Erlu, the three countries in the first echelon of the world have entered the wartime system, and the production of aircraft has increased several times, the Kingdom of Niga and the Kingdom of Eru have become the third and fourth countries equipped with fourth-generation fighters after the Gothic Kingdom and the Kingdom of Dahan.

However, the war between the Gothic Kingdom and the Kingdom of Niga and the Kingdom of Erlu was fought very fiercely, and the number of fourth-generation fighters manufactured by the three countries was very large, but the three countries lost a lot of fourth-generation fighters in the battle, which made the Han Kingdom still the country with the most fourth-generation fighters in the world.

At present, the Dahan Navy has 13 aircraft carrier fleets and more than 600 fourth-generation fighters that serve as carrier-based aircraft, and among the 13 aircraft carrier fleets, except for one aircraft carrier, which was captured by the Gothic Navy, the remaining 12 aircraft carriers are leased to Su Yi.

In addition, 16 missile cruisers, 16 attack submarines, 32 missile destroyers, and 16 comprehensive supply ships among the 13 aircraft carrier fleets of the Han Navy were all leased to Su Yi, and it can be said that the core strength of the 13 aircraft carrier fleets was leased by Su Yi to the Han Navy.

With thirteen aircraft carrier fleets with fourth-generation fighters as carrier-based aircraft, even the Gothic Navy, which has the largest aircraft carrier fleet in the world, is not afraid.

Yang Guanghao, commander-in-chief of the Han Army, heard that the eldest prince Liu Jiarui was preparing to reduce the scale of the purge of the Han Air Force and the Han Navy, and couldn't help but nodded and said: "Your Highness is wise, those officers and soldiers below only know how to obey orders, as long as Your Highness's people can control the air force and navy, those officers and soldiers below will not be able to make any big waves, if our Han Air Force and Han Navy are destroyed because of the large-scale purge, it is indeed a pity." ”

The eldest prince Liu Jiarui suddenly asked at this time: "Chen Pu, the prime minister of the cabinet, and Qian Jianrong, the deputy prime minister of the cabinet, how is their attitude now?" ”

The coup d'Γ©tat launched by the eldest prince Liu Jiarui this time was not only as simple as putting King Liu De under house arrest, he even took action to arrest most of the members of the Han cabinet, and the cabinet members who were not arrested have already taken refuge in the eldest prince Liu Jiarui.

You must know that the Han Kingdom has already implemented a constitutional monarchy, and the cabinet has the greatest power, and the king of the Han Kingdom is just a symbol of the Han Kingdom in many cases, but the eldest prince Liu Jiarui is now firmly in control of the cabinet, and the military power of the Han Kingdom's national defense force and the administrative power of the government are all in his own hands.

Liu Jiarui, who is about to ascend the throne and become the king of the Han Kingdom, is not ready to be a nominal king, but is ready to let the Han Kingdom once again implement a centralized monarchy.

Yang Guanghao shook his head and said: "Your Highness, the attitude of the two prime ministers is very tough, and it seems that they are unwilling to cooperate with Your Highness and transfer the power of the cabinet to you in the name of it." ”

A cold light flashed in the eyes of the eldest prince Liu Jiarui, "It seems that I have to talk to the two prime ministers in person." ”

On the afternoon of the 21st, the eldest prince Liu Jiarui, under the protection of the royal guards, came to the camp of the First Mechanized Infantry Division of the National Defense Army in Tianjing City.

After Liu Jiarui came to the camp of the First Mechanized Infantry Division, he first came to the room where King Liu De was imprisoned, and after King Liu De saw Liu Jiarui, he snorted coldly and did not speak, and closed his eyes.

Liu Jiarui waved his hand to the royal guards around him who were protecting him, and let these royal guards leave the room, and then Liu Jiarui sighed and said: "Father, I actually don't want to do this, but since you already know the secret on my body, then I have no choice but to take risks and attack my father first." ”

King Liu De slowly opened his eyes, and said in a cold voice: "This king never thought that the son who had been raised for nearly thirty years was not the biological son of this king, and it was also this king's soft heart, and he didn't take some measures against you immediately after learning the truth, so that now it has become a big mistake." ”

It turned out that when Zhang Min, the first queen of King Liu De, died of dystocia, the fetus in the womb did not survive, and after the queen Zhang Min and the fetus in the womb were no longer breathing, the door that could only be used by medical personnel in the operating room was suddenly opened, and a nurse brought in a newborn baby, and the baby is the current eldest prince Liu Jiarui.

All this was personally planned and arranged by Liu Jiarui's maternal uncle, that is, Zhang Yuan, the elder brother of the late queen Zhang Min.

In fact, when Queen Zhang Min was seven months pregnant, the fetus in Queen Zhang Min's womb had no fetal heartbeat, and according to the doctor's examination of Zhang Min, Zhang Min's physique would be difficult to conceive a child in the future.

After Queen Zhang Min learned the bad news, she was immediately frightened, and Zhang Yuan, who was with Zhang Min at this time, immediately ordered to control all the doctors and nurses who were responsible for giving Queen Zhang Min a prenatal examination, and then persuaded Queen Zhang Min to conceal this matter.

According to Zhang Yuan's plan, let his sister Zhang Min continue to pretend that everything is normal, and in two or three months, let Zhang Min give birth to the child, as for the dead baby in Zhang Min's belly, it will be replaced by Zhang Yuan with a healthy newborn.

Coincidentally, a female star secretly adopted by Zhang Yuan was also pregnant almost at the same time as Zhang Min, and Zhang Yuan had already learned in advance that the female star was pregnant with a son.

Zhang Yuan is ready to use his own son to replace the dead baby in his sister's womb, so that his son is likely to become the king of the Han Kingdom in the future.

Queen Zhang Min was finally moved by her brother's words and agreed to her brother's plan, after all, if the queen can't give birth to an heir for the Han Kingdom, then even if she has a good relationship with King Liu De, she is likely to be forced to divorce King Liu De by the cabinet, you must know that the Han Kingdom practices monogamy, and the blood of the Han royal family cannot be cut off!

However, what Zhang Yuan didn't expect was that Queen Zhang Min had an accident when she gave birth to a dead baby, but in the end, the plan to replace the dead baby with her own son was successfully implemented.

After Zhang Yuan's own son became the eldest prince Liu Jiarui, all the doctors and nurses who knew the truth of this matter were all dealt with by Zhang Yuan, and even several henchmen under Zhang Yuan who knew about this matter were solved by Zhang Yuan one by one.

Zhang Yuan originally didn't plan to let the eldest prince Liu Jiarui know his true identity, but the fish that slipped through the net reappeared a few years ago, and used the true identity of the eldest prince Liu Jiarui as a threat, and blackmailed Zhang Yuan, who had become the vice minister of finance of the Han Kingdom, several times.

Although Zhang Yuan didn't care about losing some money, the existence of the insider made Zhang Yuan have to tell the truth of the matter to the eldest prince Liu Jiarui, after all, the family of this insider had already been killed by Zhang Yuan, and Zhang Yuan couldn't be sure whether this original confidant would leak the secret in the end.

And after the eldest prince Liu Jiarui learned about his life experience, he began a series of arrangements to install his henchmen among the military and political leaders of the Han Kingdom.

After the fish who slipped through the net died, he has been incognito and restarted his family, he didn't even think about avenging his family, he just wanted to spend his life in peace.

However, when the only son of the insider suddenly became seriously ill, the huge medical expenses had to make him take risks and start blackmailing Zhang Yuan.

And when the insider's son died half a year ago, the insider's despair, finally poked out the matter of the tanuki changing the prince, and sent the truth of the matter to the major newspapers of the Han Kingdom.

Under the suppression of the eldest prince Liu Jiarui and the vice minister of finance Zhang Yuan, although the matter of the tanuki changing the prince was not published in any newspaper in the Han Kingdom, the matter was still known to King Liu De, and King Liu De quickly proved the truth of this matter.

Liu Jiarui sighed again, "Father, I don't want to do this either, but since my background has been exposed, you obviously have the intention of cultivating my second brother to be the next king, I have been determined to lead the Han Kingdom to become the most powerful country in the world since I was a child, for this great ambition, I will never allow anyone to stop me from becoming the king of the Han Kingdom!" ”

King Liu De pursed his lips at this time and said: "After this king knows the truth of the matter, for the sake of the late queen, without taking any measures against your father and son, it is already benevolent and righteous, does this king still want to pass on the throne to a prince who is not of royal blood?" ”

Liu Jiarui shrugged his shoulders and said: "The matter has come to this point, it is useless to say anything else between us, but for the sake of the relationship between father and son for more than 20 years, I will not harm my father, but I hope my father can be wiser, I will hold the enthronement hall on the first of next month, in order to be more justifiable, I hope that my father can attend my enthronement hall, and on the enthronement hall, the throne will be passed to me in person." ”

King Liu De sneered and said: "If you want this king to pass on the throne to you justifiably, you better not daydream." ”

Liu Jiarui smiled slightly, "Father, since I promised not to harm you, I will definitely keep my promise, but don't you think about the situation of the queen mother and my four younger brothers and sisters?" ”

King Liu De's eyes froze, "You actually threaten this king with your mother and younger brothers and sisters?" ”

The smile on Liu Jiarui's face remained unchanged, "Father, as long as you can cooperate, I can assure you that the queen mother and younger siblings will never be harmed in any way." ”

King Liu De then stared at Liu Jiarui for a long time, and then said slowly: "I hope you can keep your promise, after all, your mother has always treated you as her own, and your younger brothers and sisters have always been very close to you." ”

Liu Jiarui said with a serious expression: "Father, rest assured, as long as I can successfully ascend the throne and become the king of the Han Kingdom, you are still my most respected father, and I will treat my mother and younger brothers and sisters the same as before." ”
