Chapter 506: Sealing the Storm

"Title?" Yu Ji asked suspiciously, "What name?" ”

Ying Zhen's words have no beginning or end, Yu Ji really didn't hear what it meant, Zhi'er is the eldest king's heir, and he was succeeded to the first king as his heir, his identity is expensive but not to speak of, only going to Qianzhong County to be a county lieutenant, it is already aggrieved enough, what else do you need? Could it be that as Zhi'er, he is not worthy of being the county lieutenant of this Qianzhong County?

Ying Zhen hurriedly said: "Little sister is saying that Zhi'er's identity is unspeakably expensive, and it is really inappropriate to be the county lieutenant of Qianzhong County, not to mention anything else, just how to get along with the county guard after arriving in Qianzhong?" Therefore, before Zhi'er leaves for Qianzhong, the king had better crown him the king of Qianzhong, so that Zhi'er will guard Qianzhong in a justified manner. ”

"Didn't the king say that he would not be crowned king?" Yu Ji was a little unimpressed.

Xiang Zhuang did publicly say that he would not be crowned king, and Bi Shu's great credit was only awarded to Wu Guogong.

Ying Zhen said: "The king said that he would not be crowned king, most of them were just not crowned kings with different surnames, Zhi'er was the descendant of the king, and he was succeeded to the first king as his heir, but the king should be crowned, and the government and the opposition will definitely support it in unison." ”

Yu Ji pondered for a moment, shook her head and said, "It's still not appropriate, Qianzhong County is located in a wild wilderness, and it is too remote. ”

The corners of Ying Zhen's mouth bloomed with a hint of a smile, Yu Ji's sentence "Qianzhong County is too remote" has already shown her attitude, obviously, Yu Ji is very happy to Xiang Zhi to be crowned king, but she does not want Xiang Zhi to be crowned King of Qian, because Qianzhong County is too remote, if she can be crowned King Wu or King Danyang, she will not have any opinions.

At that moment, Ying Zhen smiled and said: "Little sister also thinks that Qianzhong County is too remote, and it is better for Zhi'er to stay in Jiangdong." In this way, people can also come to Ziling to say hello to their sisters. ”

Yu Ji is also a smart woman in ice and snow, she has already heard Ying Zhen's voice, she has some expectations, and she is worried that Ying Zhen will mess things up, which will be unfavorable to Xiang Zhi, so she reminded Ying Zhen at the moment: "Sister Shiman." You and my sisters can just say this kind of thing in private, but don't let the king hear it, he is very taboo about interfering in the harem. ”

"Little sister knows." Ying Zhen said busily. "Little sister just said casually, sister is not strange."

After a few more words with Ying Zhen, Ying Zhen left Miaoyi Palace. She already knew Yu Ji's attitude, and what to do next was her business.

The news of Xiang Zhuang's decision to move the capital to Luoyang was like a pebble thrown into a quiet pool, splashing endless ripples in an instant, and for a time the entire Ziling City fell into an inexplicable restlessness.

Neishi (equivalent to Jing Zhaoyin in later generations) uncle Sun Ping was entertaining more than a dozen colleagues in the side hall, most of these dozen colleagues were subordinate officials of the Inner History Mansion, and there were also officials from other counties who happened to return to Beijing. But whether they are Beijing officials or foreign officials, they all have one thing in common, that is, they are all people from Wu County and Gyeonggi.

If you want to say which group has the greatest impact on the relocation of the capital, it is definitely the wealthy families in Wu County and Gyeonggi!

Whether it was the previous Wu County or the later Ziling. After all, they are all in Jiangdong, Wu County and Gyeonggi have always been at the feet of Jingshi, as the wealthy families of the two places, they have many unique advantages, but once they move the capital to Luoyang, their advantages will immediately disappear. This was an almost fatal blow to them.

Xiang He and Xiang Tuo were reluctant to move the capital, and the main reason was that they were used to living a comfortable and good life, and they were unwilling to leave the prosperous Ziling and go to Luoyang, a depression, to live a hard life.

But for the wealthy families of Wu County and Gyeonggi, moving the capital is almost their old life! Therefore, their reaction was particularly violent. …,

"It's just nonsense, Ziling has only been built for more than ten years, why do you want to move the capital again?"

"Like, is it so easy to move the capital? Isn't this a waste of money and labor? ”

"Jiangdong is prosperous, and the Dingdu Ziling can be said to be expected, but what does Luoyang have?"

"No, this is a chaotic fate, we must unite all the scholars in Jiangdong to resist the relocation of the capital!"

"Not only the scholars of Jiangdong, but also the nobles of Jiangdong, I'm afraid they won't agree!"

The more more the officials talked, the more excited they became, and under the anger of the crowd, they had the posture of calling friends to go to the palace of the king of Chu to ask for their lives, and the uncle and grandson Ping really couldn't look past it, so he had to stand up and say: "Everyone, everyone, listen to the words of this official, the king decided to move the capital, that was a decision made after discussion with many ministers, how can you put your beak in it?" ”

More than a dozen officials wanted to say more, but Shusun Ping said impatiently: "It's getting late, and the officials of the Great Dynasty will have to get up early tomorrow, so I won't leave you, please take care of yourself." After saying that, more than a dozen officials went unhappily.

After sending more than a dozen officials out of the gate, Shusun Ping hurriedly returned to the backyard and walked straight into the East Pavilion.

Uncle Sun Guan, who was combing his hair on the low couch, opened his cloudy old eyes and asked, "Ping'er, are all those people gone?" ”

Uncle Sun Guan has stepped down as the county guard of Wu County, and he is idle and retired at home, because not long ago Xiang Zhuang just issued a decree that officials over 70 years old must be killed, but Xiang Zhuang also compensated his uncle and promoted his uncle and grandson to the internal history.

Uncle Sun Ping nodded and said: "Father, the move to move the capital can be said to have offended all the wealthy families in Jiangdong, and there is reliable news that Yin Xianghe and Taiwei Xiang Tuo are also opposed to moving the capital, so the son thinks, this time, father, if you can stand up and shout, I think that a big event can be expected." ”

"What can be expected? Just because of the group of fools who just came to have less success and more than enough failure? Uncle Sun Guan said coldly, "Don't think about things too simply, Xiang He, Xiang Tuo, and Xun Qi Guixuan or oppose the relocation of the capital, but they will definitely not fall out with Xiang Zhuang in order to oppose the relocation of the capital, with Xiang Zhuang's temperament, if he is not fully sure, how can he act rashly?" ”

Uncle Sun Ping said: "Then let him do whatever he wants?" If you move to Luoyang, will the state of Chu still be the state of Chu? ”

"Of course you can't let him do anything!" Uncle Sun Guan smiled coldly, picked up a secret letter from the case and handed it to Uncle Sun Ping, and said, "Ping'er, you take a look at this first." ”

Uncle Sun Ping hurriedly read it and said in surprise: "Father, this is the ...... in the palace"

"I'm cautious." Uncle Sun Guan stopped Uncle Sun Ping from talking, and then said, "Boy, you boast of being outstanding in learning, but in the eyes of your father, your knowledge and means are not as good as a woman, so learn better." ”

Uncle Sun Ping held the secret letter and said suspiciously: "Father, this is fundamentally different from moving the capital, can it be done?" ”

"That's why you don't know as much as a woman." Uncle Sun Guan stretched out his finger and slammed Uncle Sun Ping's head, and scolded with hatred, "The past two years seem to be irrelevant, but they are actually the same thing." After a pause, Uncle Sun Guan sighed again, "Go back and think about it, if you want to stop the relocation of the capital, this is the only way." ”

The next day coincided with the beginning of the month, when Xiang Zhuang put on the crown and went to the main hall, more than 100 officials of all sizes in Beijing had already been standing on duty and waiting for a long time.

After talking about the number of courtesies between the monarchs and ministers, Xiang Zhuang glanced at Xiang Xiang.

Although Xiang He was full of reluctance, he still stood up and played: "The king, the minister has his own music." ”

Xiang Zhuang shook his hand, and Xiang He continued: "King, although Ziling is prosperous in the market and rich in products, it can be the foundation of eternity, but it is a corner of peace, and now I have seventeen counties in Dachuxiong, and the territory is thousands of miles away. ”…,

Xiang Zhuang remained silent, looked around at the ministers and said, "What do you Aiqing think?" ”

Bai Lixian was the first to go out to second, and then Huan Chu, Ji Bu, Zhou Yin, Zhong Liwu, Yu Ziqi and other relatives also came out to second, Xiang Tuo was bitter in his heart, and he had to go out to second, and the rest of the officials saw this, knowing that the general trend was irreversible, and they also came out to second the proposal at the moment, and there were more than 100 officials, but none of them objected.

Xiang Zhuang pretended to be silent for a moment and said, "Since everyone is in unison, let's accommodate." ”

Only then did all the ministers return to their positions, and then Uncle Sun Ping of Neishi came out again and said: "King, the ministers also have this performance." ”

Xiang Zhuang didn't care, and said indifferently: "What did you play?" ”

Uncle Sun Ping said: "Moving the capital to Luoyang, the minister thinks that what Ling Yin said is completely reasonable, which can be said to be the expectation of the people, and it can also be said to be the trend of the times, but Jiangdong is the place where my great Chu dragon is prosperous after all, and Jiangdong is rich in fish and rice, and prosperous industry and commerce, which is the foundation of my great Chu tax and grain, so the minister asks to leave a prince to guard." ”

Someone in the two classes of officials immediately asked: "In what name is the prince guarding Jiangdong?" ”

Uncle Sun Ping was not in a hurry, and replied loudly: "You can crown the prince as the king of Wu or the king of Danyang." After saying this, Shusun Ping continued, "It just so happens that the son of the world Xiang Zhi has become an adult, and I heard that the king wants to condemn him as the lieutenant of Qianzhong County, and the minister thinks it is very inappropriate, how can he be appointed as the lieutenant of a county with the respect of the prince?" The minister thought that the son of the family could stay in Jiangdong. ”

The ministers in the palace looked at each other, which one did Shusun Ping sing? Didn't the king say that he would not be crowned king, why didn't he open any pot and mention which pot, and he had to ask the prince Xiang Zhi to stay in Jiangdong and be crowned king? Then the ministers who had thoughts turned quickly turned their heads to look at Danqi, but they couldn't see any change in Xiang Zhuang's expression.

Then some ministers pondered on the spot: Could it be that this is also the king's order? Thinking about it carefully, it seems that it is not impossible, the king said that he would not be crowned king, it seems that he just did not seal the king with a different surname, and the son Xiang Zhi was not only the heir of the king, but also passed to the first king as the heir, the identity can be described as unspeakably expensive, and it is natural to be crowned king.

Soon, some ministers who considered themselves "alert" came out one after another to second.

Seeing that someone seconded the proposal, the minister whose brain turned a little slower also came back to his senses, and after a while, all the civil officials and military generals in the hall stood under the Danqi, and asked Xiang Zhuang to canonize Xiang Zhi as the king and stay in Jiangdong.
