Qin Dong knew that the next thing was likely to be a storm, involving the issue of the throne, nine times out of ten it would be the end of life and death, Tong Guò just observed the appearance of the eldest prince in the palace, Qin Dong also knew that the eldest prince Erak was not as unbearable as he appeared on the surface, he was like this because he had been in the shadow of Attila for a long time, and now that Attila is dead, Erak will naturally not be as submissive as before.

The princes, ministers, and generals soon arrived at the main hall, and as Qin Dong expected, Erak walked to the front of the throne and turned around to stand still, while the other princes, ministers, and generals sat down according to the size of their official positions.

The Huns respected the left, which was the same as the Central Plains, and the Huns established the country by force, so naturally the status of military generals was higher than that of civil officials, so on the left hand side of Erak sat the princes, followed by the generals of the army, the first on the right was Attila's chief confidential secretary Onigseus, and then down was the chief secretary Constantius, the secretary of state Orlistes, the finance minister Scotta and other royal officials.

Qin Dong followed the chief of the guard, Uji, to the throne and stood on the left and right sides to protect Erak, and another guard named Mulu was designated by Uji to stay at the gate of the main hall and command the royal court guards guarding the main hall to stop the guards of other princes and generals and prevent them from entering the main hall.

After all the princes, ministers, and generals sat down, Erak finally showed his true face, and he was not as straw as Qin Dong thought, which surprised Qin Dong, but Qin Dong thought about it and felt that it was inevitable, could a prince, especially a prince living in a crisis environment like the Xiongnu royal court, be a straw bag? Erak's ability may not be very strong, but it is absolutely impossible to be a straw bag, otherwise he would not have survived until now, the reason why Erak did not set up an ambush around the royal court to kill other princes according to Qin Dong's proposal, so as to seize the throne, is because Erak still does not trust Qin Dong, and Attila is very powerful, Erak does not dare to take risks, and now that Attila is really dead, Erak naturally has no scruples.

I saw that Erak looked at the princes, ministers, and generals on the left and right sides and said: "Everyone, Da Shan Yu suddenly went to see the Immortal Heaven without warning, I am very sad, very heartbroken, Da Shan is the greatest king of my Great Huns, his exploits are unmatched, it is he who led us to achieve brilliant victories again and again, it is he who made the Romans bow their proud heads, kneel at our feet and wag their tails and beg for mercy, now Da Shan has returned to heaven, we have to discuss and deal with his aftermath, you all talk about it, how to handle this matter?" ”

Qin Dong stood at the foot of the steps on the right side of the throne, holding his waist knife and observing everyone's reactions, and when he heard Erak finish speaking, he had to admire that this guy was really smart. According to the general situation, after the death of the previous monarch, a dynasty must set up a new monarch as soon as possible, after all, the country cannot be without a monarch for a day This sentence is not nonsense, without a monarch, there is no final decision-maker for many major events, which is very dangerous for the country, and establishing the candidate for the monarch as soon as possible can also prevent people with ulterior motives from making trouble and destroying the foundation of the country. And Erak didn't talk about the throne but said how to bury Attila, how could the other princes stand it? In fact, Erak is retreating.

Sure enough, the second prince, the right virtuous king Enek, was impatient, he couldn't help it first, and as soon as Erak finished speaking, he said loudly: "Big brother, we are all very sad when our father is dead, but the top priority is to discuss who will inherit the throne, and only when the heir to the throne is determined can we handle the funeral of my father!" ”

In Qin Dong's opinion, this guy is really a straw bag, and his anxious appearance makes others think that he can't wait to ascend to the throne of the King of the Huns.

The right bone that supported him, Hou Biyehu, wanted to stop it too late, so he could only listen to him finish speaking, and stand up and shout in support before others began to speak, no way, who made the second prince Enek his master? Now I can only stretch my neck and stiffen up, "What His Royal Highness the Second Prince said is that the news of Da Dan Yu Guitian has not yet been sent to various places, and the officials and generals who are guarding the towns around the country do not know yet, and they will have to wait for these people to come to mourn, so this is not possible in a short period of time, so it is necessary to establish the successor to the throne first, and the heir to the throne will preside over the overall situation, I think that His Royal Highness the Second Prince has both ability and political integrity, and is brave and brave, and he is the best candidate for the heir to the throne!" ”

The second prince Enek is obviously a dumbfounder, and Biyehu even said that he has both ability and integrity, and is brave and brave. Qin Dong couldn't help but want to laugh after hearing this, but he still couldn't help it, the senior officials and generals of the entire Xiongnu Empire are almost here, if he laughs out loud, it is estimated that he will not escape the fate of being dragged out and beheaded, he is proud that his own force can kill some people, but this is the Xiongnu royal court, hundreds of thousands of troops are stationed here, it is basically impossible to retreat with all his body, and the generals sitting here are not all like goods, there must be people with high military strength, these people have been fighting on the battlefield all year round, and the murderous aura on their bodies is very strong, It's not a simple thing, for the sake of his own life, Qin Dong still held back.

After the right bone capital Hou Biyehu finished speaking, three officials stood up to express their support, but the people who supported the little prince Deng Zhixike couldn't help it, and the left bone capital Hou Valla stood up and objected loudly: "I don't dare to agree with the words of the right bone Duhou, as we all know, Da Shan Yu has always loved His Royal Highness the little prince Deng Zhixike, and has more than once revealed the idea of wanting to pass the throne to His Royal Highness the little prince, so that His Royal Highness the little prince can inherit his will. Do you want Da Dan Yu to leave regrets when he reaches the Immortal Heaven? ”

The left and right bones belong to civilian officials, have no military power, and are mainly responsible for assisting Shan Yu in handling political affairs, and the left and right Xian Wang, the left and right Gu Li Wang, the left and right generals, and the left and right captains are all military and political officials.

The standing military establishment of the Huns has a total of 24 "10,000 horses", Da Dan Yu has 50,000 horsemen directly under the army, the left Xian Wang is second, there are 40,000 horses, the right Xian Wang has 30,000 horses, the left and right Gu Li Wang each have 20,000 horses, the left and right generals each have 20,000 horses, the left and right captains each have 10,000 horses, and the left and right big households each have 10,000 horses. The commander of the "Ten Thousand Cavalry" is the commander of the Ten Thousand Cavalry, and there are also thousands of (horse) commanders, hundred (cavalry) commanders, and even (cavalry) commanders, which is the so-called "decimal system" of the Hun army.

The left bone capital Hou Valla's move is indeed a bit powerful, and he moved Attila out, which made many people not know what to say, even those who want to stand up and oppose it are hesitant, if they oppose it, it is blatantly not to put Attila in their eyes, you must know that there are still a lot of Attila's diehards here, and if they are offended, the consequences will be unknown. Moreover, many officials stood up one by one to express their support.

However, it is obvious that the ** of the throne is too big, and some people still stood up to refute it, only to see the right captain Sambus stand up and say: "The Marquis of the left bone said that Da Dan Yu has expressed his desire to pass the throne to the little prince more than once, why don't I know about this?" Da Dan loves His Royal Highness the Little Prince, we all know this, but how important is the succession to the throne? Unless Da Shan Yu clearly designates His Royal Highness the Little Prince to inherit the throne, it is difficult to convince the ministers and generals of the words of the Marquis of Zuo Gudu, and I think that His Royal Highness the Great Prince is the eldest son of Da Shan Yu, and when he fights with Da Dan Yu, he often fights bravely and has outstanding achievements, and he also handles political affairs in an orderly manner when Da Shan Yu stays in the royal court during the expedition, and His Royal Highness the Great Prince has outstanding talents both in military and political affairs, and is the best candidate for the throne! ”
