Chapter 900: Voting
The inheritance methods of the Chinese are nothing more than four types: Liyan, Lichang, Lixian, and Liai. The status of the son-in-law born to the wife is always far superior to that of other brothers. However, the four women of Guoxing'a are all side blessings, and no one can be regarded as a wife, so there is no such thing as a successor. There are three remaining methods: long-standing, virtuous, and loving, but they are worth studying.
Standing is the simplest, a few brothers stand in a row, it's better to be older than anyone, and the Ming Dynasty often did this. However, other dynasties don't like this way very much, and the Ming Dynasty has also made a lot of baskets because of the problem of Lichang, so Lichang can only be used as a reference. Lixian is actually the best choice, and a person with superior ability is definitely the best choice to succeed to the throne. But who is a sage, there is simply not a clear guideline. You can't give your buddies a comprehensive ability test, let's decide according to the test results! Love is the most criticized way, because love is the most irrational choice, and it is often chosen to be a dumb king.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the major affairs of the heavenly family should not be discussed by the courtiers! However, today, Taifujin trusts and hands over this important task to us, and we also need to work hard and elect openly. The old man felt that we should not discuss it, so as not to cause disputes, and if we could not hold each other, we would delay the big thing. It is better to write the name of your favorite brother on a piece of paper, and after collecting it, we will determine the number of votes. What about these notes! We are also anonymous, and we burn it immediately after registration! "Pi Runmin came up with a very good way to avoid disputes between factions and protect the losers.
In history, there are many famous ministers who have been retaliated against for supporting non-human beings and ruined their good futures. Pi Runmin's anonymous voting not only prevents everyone from making any inappropriate remarks, but also allows everyone to avoid the doom of supporting the loser. In the future, whoever succeeds to the throne will be elected by the people present, and they will certainly not hold a grudge against them. Even if you know that some of them don't support you, there is no conclusive proof of who they are.
Pi Runmin made such a play, in fact, because they had already guessed the result, no matter how they chose the prince, the eldest brother almost won. The eldest brother is the eldest son of Guoxing'a, and Lichang must have chosen him. Moreover, the eldest brother has been smart since he was a child, and he is known as a virtuous person, and his opinions published several times are very decent. Whether the other elder brothers will be wiser than the eldest elder brother, no one knows at all, they are all too young and have no chance to show their faces at all. As for Liai, there is no way, Guo Xing'a didn't leave a word, who knows that he likes that son the most. Guo Xing's favorite is Da Gege Mingcheng, you can't let the heroine come to the court! The most important thing is that the country is at war, and it must need a Changjun to stabilize the situation, and what the eldest brother says is also the best choice.
"Okay, this is a good solution!" Wu Xiuming was the first to stand up and agree, and then Pi Runmin reacted that he was negligent, he had just made a big mistake.
The voting choice was for the minority to obey the majority, but it was not a referendum, nor was it a referendum to convene all the top leaders in Manchuria, but a vote of dozens of people who were present. No matter how Pi Runmin thought about it, he felt that the eldest brother was the best heir, but he forgot that among the people present, there were the least people from the Mongolian and Manchurian families, and there were more than a dozen people from the Huaiyang family, the Taiping family, and the Luying family. Wu Xiuming is fully capable of influencing decision-making, and if he looks at the past, people from the Huaiyang system, the Taiping department, and the green camp department will be consistent with him.
"Choose!" Pi Runmin and Zou Degui looked at each other and were trying to find a way to deal with it, so as not to mess around with Huaiyang for their own interests, but the Suotulu clan couldn't wait any longer, and directly issued an order to start voting.
At the last moment, Pi Runmin urgently made eye contact with Zou Degui, Chen Weinian and other members of the Wenchen Group, they should have their own style and bones, and they must insist on thinking about the country. When writing the ballot, Pi Runmin's eyes suddenly met Tan Shaoguang, and Tan Shaoguang smiled at him kindly and nodded. Pi Runmin's heart is determined, and Tan Shaoguang doesn't want to follow the Huaiyang system to fool around, his victory is even greater.
The results of the election came out soon, and the eldest brother Mingsong narrowly defeated the second elder brother Mingnan by only one vote. Then things fell apart from Pi Runmin's design, and several cadres of the Huaiyang department all jumped up and argued over this vote. If the number of votes is too different, there will naturally be no dispute, and the result will be taken for granted, but it will be very embarrassing if there is only one vote missing. Huaiyang was in a desperate posture, and he almost lost his mind to propose that all important ministers participate in the vote, even including the military generals who were fighting on the front line. This kind of thing that will shock the army's heart and even provoke other changes, of course, can't be done, but the eldest brother doesn't want to take it for granted.
Suotulu actually likes the eldest brother Mingsong, firstly, Mingsong is well-behaved and sensible, very filial, and secondly, because the old lady is more optimistic about Tuya's life experience. But so many ministers supported Ming Nan, and the Suotulu clan was also a little hesitant, because the old lady always remembered that Guo Xing'a didn't like Ming Song. Hatred of father and son, debt transfer to husband and wife, father and son will inevitably look at each other a little unpleasantly, Guo Xing'a just looks at how Ming Song is unhappy, and it is better for Ming Nan and their little ones. Sotulu was inevitably entangled, not knowing which one to choose.
The Mongolian department put forward the advantages of the eldest brother Mingsong, and strongly demonstrated the advantages of the eldest brother's succession. The Huaiyang faction moved out of what Guo Xing'a had accused of his son, insisting that Ming Song was too weak and unscrupulous to bear the burden of the Manchurian Empire. They think that the second elder brother Ming Nan has always been loved by Guo Xing'a, and he is also the most like Guo Xing'a among all the elder brothers, and he is extraordinary, and he can command the millions of male soldiers of the Manchurian Empire. Then they go into an endless loop, constantly arguing, then re-voting, and then continuing to bicker.
The dignitaries quarreled over national affairs, and naturally they would not notice some inconsequential little people, such as the little eunuch who served tea and poured water. After arguing for several hours, the little eunuchs changed shifts, and then a good-looking little eunuch wandered to the inner courtyard of Xingyuan, as if he wanted to meet some little palace maid. This happens every day, and who cares!
"Wu Xiuming, they are recommending Ming Nan, not Ming Tong?" Tianni, who is in her thirties, is very well maintained, and she looks like she is in her twenties, but it is also hideous and terrifying when she starts a fire.
"Yes, Fujin! Physician Wu, General Chen, Minister Li, and Director Li all recommended the second elder brother, and no one spoke for the third elder brother. Now they are almost arguing in front, and they are also arguing over the eldest brother and the second elder brother! Park Yingshun was also stunned, she never thought that the Huaiyang system, which had always been better with them, would give up the third elder brother.
"Doctor Wu, what a good way to do it! I'm afraid that I won't be able to control it, so I'll bet all the treasure on my sister at a critical moment! Tianni instantly figured it out, their sisters are all closely related to the Huaiyang system, but they have been too sharp over the years, which makes Wu Xiuming and others feel uneasy, so at the most critical moment, the Huaiyang department chose the sister who has always been submissive.
"Master, how do we arrange it!" Park Yingshun is very eager, although Ming Nan won the position, but after all, it was not Ming Tong that she held with her own hands, and the gap between the same and the winner was big.
"No matter what, we can't let Tuya's slut win, let's fully support my sister first. The general was actually poisoned, it must have been done by Tuya's slut, and we shook out all her material. The biological mother is not chaste, I see how the eldest brother will succeed to the throne! "Tianni has not been idle all these years, and Park Young-soon's team is very large.
"Huh!" Park Young-soon has long mastered Tuya's death hole, and he has not made a move, just waiting for this most critical moment.
"When you're done, you go out and see Chen Jingwen!" Tianni doesn't want to hurt her sister, but she also wants her son to be a general. Chen Jingwen's official position is only the head of the colonel, but he is the head of the general's guard regiment, this position is very important, and he is also Tianni's magic weapon to win.
The Mongolian and Huaiyang factions quarreled until midnight and were still pulling sheepskins, Pi Runmin, Zou Degui and others had the intention to make peace, and they didn't know where to start. Just as everyone was about to take a break and then turn around to return to the battle, a shocking news reached the Sotulu clan. Tuya's personal maidservant, Naren suddenly went to Zhang Fulai, the head of Xingyuan, to surrender and confessed that she had violated the palace rules and brought outsiders into the secret meeting of Tuya. Zhang Fulai didn't take this seriously, Tuya's back is the entire Mongolian system, Guoxing'a suddenly had an accident, and it is normal for Tuya to find someone to discuss. But Naren said more things, and she was led by a Mongolian man who had an affair with Tuya.
The color of Guo Xing'a's hat is not very correct, and there may even be a green light enveloping him, which is not a trivial matter, and it must be strictly investigated and dealt with in the past, but this time it is very different. Guo Xing'a is seriously ill and in a coma, the country's political situation is already unstable, and nothing that affects the situation can happen again, even if Tuya really has a personal relationship with outsiders, he has to wait for the overall situation to stabilize. Zhang Fulai made a decision privately, detained Naren, and tightly sealed the news. Zhang Fulai meant to wait and see, but Na Cheng thought that this Naren was a Doraemon, with endless things in his stomach, and he could explain major news at any time. After being detained by Zhang Fulai, Naren confessed a very important situation. The man who had a private meeting with Tuya often sent Tuya a lot of strange mushrooms, and Tuya would tell the small kitchen to make these mushrooms for Guo Xing'a to eat. Zhang Fulai also knew that Guo Xing'a was poisoned, and combined with Naren's statement, he immediately thought of a very dangerous possibility. He didn't dare to delay the news any longer, and directly stabbed the matter in front of the Suotulu clan.
Now everyone stopped talking, and a few people from the Mongolian department seemed to be stupid. The biological mother of the eldest brother Ming Song is suspected of poisoning Guoxing'a, and there may be many kinds of purposes, but the possibility of usurping the throne is not ruled out, what role is the eldest brother in it?
