Chapter 818: Establish a crown prince and draw lots
Chapter 818 Establish the crown prince and draw lots
If Xiao Yu says anything else, it can be refuted with a big reason. All the ministers in the palace have to talk about their ability to do things, some are big and some are small, and they are uneven, but when it comes to big truths, no one is really afraid of anyone. But Xiao Yu is taking the Emperor Gaozu and the first emperor of this dynasty as a reason, so no one can do anything!
Chu Suiliang was very dissatisfied, he was not dissatisfied with Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu was in his seventies, whether he relied on the old and sold the old, or he was not afraid of anything at this age anyway, in any aspect, he was not a key person. As long as you follow his words and say a few words, Xiao Lao'er will not really do anything, give a step down, and push the boat down the river.
But the eldest grandson Wuji wanted to glare at him, and Fang Xuanling, who had always been silent, jumped out and made a noise...... Quarrel, this time the quarrel will cause trouble, this is called trouble from the mouth, quarrel with the quarrel king, if you want to quarrel and win, how difficult it is to win! Now that you lose, the matter of establishing the prince will be stranded all of a sudden!
Wang Ping'an also shook his head again and again, in real history, when Li Zhi became the prince, Xiao Yu had already died, and the dead people naturally did not raise any objections, but now Xiao Yu is still alive and well, the two prime ministers went out to quarrel with others, but they haven't quarreled with others, and this person can't lose it anymore!
The eldest grandson Wuji and Fang Xuanling looked at each other, they were both stunned, no one could do anything, and they felt helpless. No matter how they can quarrel, they can't say that the current emperor is stronger than Emperor Gaozu and the first emperor, and there is no way to say this!
Li Zhi's face was also difficult to look at, the matter was dragged into an impasse, he was naturally very unhappy, it was not good to compare who was with himself, he had to compare his grandfather and father, it was really annoying. But it's even more annoying, and I can't refute it.
Xiao Yu was triumphant, stretched out his hand and touched his beard, looking at the embarrassed expressions of the people in the hall, how comfortable he was, how comfortable he was, he had given four emperors a look in his life, which was unprecedented, and now he finally broke the record he held and embarrassed the fifth emperor, he didn't live in vain in this life, he can be called the first in the world, it's cool? Cool!
Li Zhida was helpless, he stammered a little: "That, that, that...... No disease, you speak! In a hurry, he came out casually, and when he was in a hurry, he called him sick, and now he even called out!
The ministers turned their heads together and looked at Wang Ping'an. Xiao Yu was in high spirits, and thought: "Okay, I knew that Wang Ping'an was sharp-toothed, and I was finally able to play tricks with him today, let's see who is more reasonable!" ”
Wang Ping'an's scalp is numb, you are quarrelling, why are you involved with me! But the emperor asked for help, and he could no longer pretend to play soy sauce, so he had to go out of work again, clear his throat, and said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks what Xiao Gong said is very true. Regarding the matter of which prince to appoint, the emperor should not make his own opinion! ”
Xiao Yu said proudly: "Yes, that's exactly the case." Not only can the emperor not make his own opinions, but the ministers should not follow suit, they must be country-oriented, and everything should be considered from the overall situation! ”
He was very happy, the eldest grandson Wuji couldn't quarrel with him, and the newcomer Wang Ping'an was unexpectedly unexpected, and took the initiative to disarm and surrender, which really made him feel good again!
In this world, some people love beauty, some people love money, some people love power, and some people love soy sauce, but Xiao Yu doesn't love any of these, he likes to quarrel, and he also likes to see the embarrassing expression of the opponent after losing, the more embarrassed the opponent, the more cool he is!
However, people who know Wang Ping'an, as soon as they heard Wang Ping'an's words agree with Xiao Yu, they immediately put their minds at ease, as long as Wang Ping'an agrees with the first sentence, then the next sentence must be opposed!
Sure enough, Wang Ping'an paused for a moment and said: "The establishment of the crown prince is a major national event, according to what Gong Xiao said, you should respect the meaning of Emperor Gaozu and the first emperor, is it correct to understand it this way?" ”
He deliberately distorted that the meaning in Xiao Yu's words was to respect "Emperor Gaozu and Emperor Xian", not "to respect Emperor Gaozu and Emperor Xian", and there were more words "meaning", which sounded similar, but the meaning was very different!
Xiao Yu quarreled very well, and he was the best at catching the faults in people's words, but Wang Ping'an said it in official words with Xuzhou colloquialisms, he listened to it with great difficulty, was slightly stunned, and did not refute it in time, but nodded.
Wang Ping'an saw him nodding, and immediately said, "Xiao Gong really means this, that's great." Your Majesty, why don't we follow the will of Duke Xiao, prepare a few test questions, invite all the princes to the Taimiao, and let them answer the test questions in front of the spiritual position of Gaozu and the first emperor. ”
In these words of Wang Ping'an, there is a serious language disease, and the causal relationship is confused, which belongs to absolute harmony and mud! But his words can't be refuted, because they contain the concept of providence in the dark. Isn't this thing of providence said by the mouth of a mortal!
The ministers in the palace all laughed, and the eldest grandson Wuji laughed heartily, and even Li Zhi was happy. Okay this time, Xiao Lao'er, isn't that what you mean, then do what you want!
The whole hall laughed, but only Xiao Yu didn't smile, he blinked his eyes, and thought: "Wang Ping'an's words are not right, but what is wrong?" ”
Xiao Yu sighed and said, "Wang Xiang, what you said is not right!" Didn't the old man say just now, some of the princes are too young to take an exam on them, according to what you said, how to take the test? ”
The other ministers smiled silently, but Shi Zhongchen, who was behind Li Zhi, shook his head and thought: "Xiao Yu is confused, he was fooled, the topic was diverted by Wang Ping'an, and now it has become how to take the crown prince, not whether to make a prince now." Wang Ping'an, a little slippery head, can confuse right and wrong the most, and he is extremely evil! ”
Wang Ping'an pretended to think about it, nodded and said, "Xiao Gong's words are too right, it seems that I didn't think about it enough!" Then why don't you do this, make a few paper signs, it is written, stand or not, put them in a box, and let the princes draw lots, whoever draws the stand, who will be the prince, how about this? The emperor, according to the ministers, this move might as well be called a gold box inspection. ”
Xiao Yu was stupid all of a sudden, he was really ambitious and not at an advanced age, and he didn't rely on foaming a lot to quarrel, although he had rich experience in quarreling, but this time he was caught in the way and was circled by Wang Ping'an!
Xiao Yu pulled his beard tightly and said, "To establish a prince, you have to draw lots?" This is really unprecedented, unheard of, how can this be? ”
Wang Ping'an said with a surprised face: "Why can't this be, isn't this a method formulated according to Xiao Gong's intentions, this is what you mean!" ”
"What does the old man mean, the old man just ...... That's not what it means! Xiao Yu is about to regroup and want to have a good debate with Wang Ping'an, but no one else will do it.
Fang Xuanling saw that Wang Ping'an had the upper hand, and immediately fell into the ground, he stood up and said: "Lord Xiao, this is the court, you can't go back on your word!" Wang Xiang's idea is obviously according to your intentions, if you raise any objections, it will be a loss of honor in front of the king, and you will treat the matter of establishing the prince as a child's play! ”
Fang Xuanling buttoned his big hat, and the eldest grandson Wuji immediately seconded the proposal, accusing Xiao Yu one after another, saying that he was too unauthentic, how could it be like this, he was too ungentlemanly, but a villain!
Xiao Yu was so angry that his face was red and his neck was thick, he opened his mouth and stammered, he couldn't say one, two, three, he had quarreled in his life, it was the first time he was so embarrassed, he had always embarrassed others, and this time it was his turn for the first time!
Li Zhi slapped the dragon book case and said: "Okay, let's do it according to the method of no disease, who to appoint as the crown prince, it is up to Emperor Gaozu and the first emperor to decide, I wait for mortals, there is no need to discuss it!" ”
What he meant by this was that I had made up my mind, and there was no need to discuss it again. When the ministers heard this, no matter how dissatisfied they were, they couldn't say it, so they had to shout loudly together to obey the order.
There are a few things to be discussed at this court meeting, but the matter of establishing the prince is too important, so other things can only be postponed. Li Zhi made a decision, stood up, flicked his sleeves, did not take away a trace of opposition, retired in a dashing manner, went to find Wu Meiniang, and continued to study the past and present lives of the Buddha of Huanxi with her.
This time, the eldest grandson Wuji was triumphant, he pulled Wang Ping'an in front of Xiao Yu, and said loudly: "No disease, good boy, let's go to your Dongtai, let's discuss it carefully, how to carry out the gold box inspection, this is a big deal, don't be sloppy." ”
He pretended to see Xiao Yu, and said with a look of surprise: "Hey, Xiao Gong, you haven't left yet?" It's just right, let's go to Dongtai together, this idea is yours, you have to give your opinion, let's all do what you want! ”
Xiao Yu lost the quarrel, was so angry that she blushed and her neck was thick, she didn't say a word, flicked her sleeves and left.
The eldest grandson Wuji shouted from behind: "Gong Xiao, what's wrong with you?" Are you angry? Oh, look at this person, why are you still angry! ”
Fang Xuanling also said loudly: "Lord Xiao, your bearing is a little narrower!" The dignified prince, how can he be so ungraceful, and he is still angry! ”
The ministers of the eldest grandson's faction said one after another: "I only found out today that Xiao Gong turned out to be an angry bag, he is really unlucky, a stingy ghost!" ”
The eldest grandson Wuji pulled Wang Ping'an out of the Ganlu Hall and asked: "No disease, how should the lottery be drawn, and what should I do if I am drawn by other princes?" ”
Wang Ping'an whispered: "This is impossible. Those signatures are a priori by the eldest grandson himself, go through the motions, and when you want to draw whoever you want, let whoever draw first, isn't this a good thing, make sure to draw a quasi! ”
The eldest grandson Wuji snorted and said, "This ...... It's unlikely, how can you draw a lottery, is it possible that the old man can still stuff the sign with the writing into the hands of the emperor's eldest son? ”
Wang Ping'an said loudly and said, "No, you can't sign it and write it all." If the eldest son of the emperor draws first and draws out a standing word, the prince behind him does not need to draw! ”
The cheating method he said is commonly used in modern times, but it was the first time in the Tang Dynasty that no minister had ever encountered such a thing as drawing lots, so naturally he couldn't think of this method!
The eldest grandson Wuji was suddenly happy, his old face was like a flower, and he said: "Yes, this trick, why didn't the old man think of it!" ”
