Chapter 14: The Controversy of the Imperial Court
The Jinluan Palace can be described as splendid, its area is half the size of the whole palace, the whole Jinluan Palace is supported by the bronzing column entangled by twelve golden dragons, the nine tripods are listed in it, interpreting the emperor's words and nine tripods, the ground is covered with fluffy carpets all the way to the outside of the palace, countless glory and wealth and luxury.
The emperor of the Ninety-Five Emperor sat high on the dragon chair, the floating fragrance of ambergris smoked the emperor, and the emperor was lazy, his eyelids trembled, and he looked at the two rows of important ministers of the court standing under him for a while.
It is commonplace for the emperor's behavior to ignore the government, and some of the positive and uplifting ministers really can't stand the emperor's appearance, and the thousands of words can be said to be vividly expressing their dissatisfaction with the emperor's behavior, and painstakingly teaching the emperor that he should take state affairs for the public. Sadly, it happened to be used by the miserly, and the final outcome was also miserable.
The emperor's bloated and obese physique has long since lost the bloody battlefield of the past, and he reclined on the wide and luxurious dragon chair, raised his eyelids, and said weakly: "Something to start, nothing to retreat." ”
The eunuch standing on the side listened, and shouted in his sharp and unique voice: "If there is something to start, there is nothing to retreat." ”
"The minister has the right to play." Taiwei Zhao Chengzhong stepped forward, holding the elephant wat in his hand and bowing.
"Oh? What did Zhao Aiqing do? "The emperor only wants to go down to court as soon as possible, and he is not happy that someone will stop him at this time.
"Emperor Qi, a few days ago the border war, thanks to the Jin prince led the troops to drive the barbarians out of the country, now the situation is stable, the people are settled and happy, but most of the Xicheng floods, resulting in many people displaced, homeless, this is a thousand miles to flee to Bianjing in order to find another way to survive. It's just that Bianjing City is overcrowded, and it really can't accommodate so many refugees. According to the minister's opinion, the escape is only a symptom but not a cure, in the final analysis, it is not good for Xicheng to control the water, and the minister believes that the virtuous minister should be sent to govern in order to solve the urgent need. Taiwei Zhao Zhongzhong expressed his opinion indignantly.
The other ministers all said that the Taiwei was right, and it was urgent to solve the Xicheng flood, but no one dared to tell the emperor about the matter, and now someone took the lead, and everyone reacted to the emperor.
"Your Majesty, the Taiwei is right, there have been a lot of refugees in Bianjing City in recent days, and the number is extremely large, and Bianjing probably can't accommodate so many people."
"Your Majesty, the rations in the Bianjing market may not be able to support so many people."
....
The emperor listened to the ministers chattering forward again, and the noise made him have a headache, and he was a little more bored to see the Taiwei's eyes, but so many ministers were reacting and ignored it, so he asked the Taiwei and said, "According to the Taiwei's opinion, who should I send the most appropriate?"
"The minister thinks that it is appropriate to go to Xicheng to control the water and need people with both talents and intelligence. The prince is very intelligent, and when he is an adult, he thinks it is time for the prince to go out and practice. ”
The prince standing on the side was also dressed in a dragon robe, and he was a little flustered when he heard this. Who doesn't know that the reason why Xicheng is unfavorable is because the local officials collect taxes indiscriminately, corrupt officials collude with each other, and the people have long been resentful of officials. If you go there, you will suffer. Let's not talk about whether the water control can be smooth, even if it is not guaranteed, even my life is not guaranteed.
The prince glared at Yan Jin viciously, then smiled sinisterly, stepped forward and saluted, and said: "Father, the most suitable person for the son is none other than King Jin, King Jin's ability is obvious to all, and I believe that my father also sees it." ”
After Yan Jin didn't speak, the prince refuted the prince, "The prince should not grow up to others and destroy his own prestige." King Jin's ability is naturally recognized by the world. It's just that in the future, the Dongyue Kingdom will be handed over to the prince, if the prince does not show his ability, how dare the emperor hand over my great rivers and mountains to you, and how can the people in this world surrender to the prince? Prince, don't miss this opportunity! ”
Taiwei said it reasonably, and he instigated the prince to go to Xicheng to control the water. The prince was angry, and naturally knew that Taiwei was from Su Mujian's side, and he had also opposed him many times, thinking that one day he would eradicate this scourge.
Seeing that the prince couldn't refute, Mo Yuntian, who was promoted to the head of the country, stepped forward to exonerate the prince, "Your Majesty, in a few days it will be the triage of the Three Kingdoms, and the prince must be present on behalf of my Dongyue Kingdom, and the minister thinks that there will be opportunities after showing the prince's ability, and the most important thing at the moment is how to judge the power of my Dongyue Kingdom in the Three Kingdoms." Therefore, the minister thinks that King Jin is the most suitable person. ”
The ministers of the court and the central government all knew that the crown prince and King Jin were at odds, and the courtiers gradually formed two major factions, but there were also those who were neutral and did not share the troubled waters.
"Guozhang, a few days ago, the border war was chaotic, it was King Jin who led the troops to go out, so that the current state of affairs was peaceful, and the other two countries have been eyeing our Dongyue country, if it weren't for the fear of King Jin's troops, I'm afraid it would have been attacked long ago. The protection of King Jin in the country of East Vietnam will become more prosperous, and the three kingdoms will be tried, and if King Jin is present, it will definitely be able to deter the other two countries. The crown prince is doing nothing now, and I'm afraid the other two lords don't take it seriously. "The Taiwei deliberately belittled the prince in order to anger the prince.
Sure enough, the prince was completely angered by the captain, so he jumped up angrily. Pointing at the Tai Lieutenant, he scolded, "Tai Wei, you have lost the prince like this, you have no monarch at all, and a rebellious minister and thief like you should be executed immediately..."
"Prince, what Taiwei said is true, inheriting my throne, you are still a little tender. This time, you will be responsible for the water control in Xicheng, if the prince is not satisfied, he will do something big to show me. "The emperor saw that the prince did not look like a prince at all, and he was finally angered.
Seeing this, the prince tried his best to give Yu Taishi, who had not spoken, a look, but Yu Taishi did not look like he wanted to speak for the prince.
The emperor spoke, and the crown prince had no choice but to comply.
When Wan Yan Jin was in the next court, he slowly discussed some state affairs with the Tai Wei, and the gray-faced prince saw it and strode forward to block Yan Jin's way.
"Prince, don't you know? Good dogs don't get in the way! Wan Yanjin looked at the prince playfully, and didn't put the prince in his eyes at all. His real enemy is the scheming Utaishi, not the crown prince.
The ministers who followed Wan Yan Jin all laughed, and the prince was furious when he saw it, and pointed at Wan Yan Jin and said: "Su Mujin, don't think that this will defeat the prince, one day, the prince will break you into ten thousand pieces." ”
The crown prince hates Wan Yan Jin the most fearless of everything, just like in the early dynasty, he didn't say a word but was victorious. This kind of momentum and ability is what the prince admires and what he hates.
Wan Yanjin chuckled, and his fearless appearance made the prince tremble.
"Prince, the minister is here to wait for the arrival of that day."
The prince brushed his sleeves away when he heard this, which was in stark contrast to Wan Yanjin's calm appearance.
