Chapter 672: Failed to Seize the Throne (15)
In any case, the original prince has been the prince for more than 30 years after all, and it is only a matter of the last few days that he has been deposed, and the identity of the eldest son is still unshakable in the minds of many ministers.
Therefore, it is normal for more ministers to support the prince who has been deposed.
If he's been deposed for years.
Then I am afraid that the situation will change again.
"The prince's vain attempt to kill the king and kill his father has spread all over the capital, and the same is true of the prince's depose, and it will not take a few days to spread throughout the country.
If the abolished prince is the king.
How can the people of the world be convinced?
Could it be that killing the king and killing his father is the right way?
If so, how can there be morality in the world?
Who are the kings and ministers going to believe in the words of father and son?
I also hope that the princes of the court will think deeply! ”
Qiao Mu is definitely not capable of directly ascending the throne and becoming the emperor now, and the regent is also very suspenseful, after all, she is only an imperial concubine after all, and she is not a regent like the queen, so it is naturally in her interests to choose the five princes who are not young and whose biological mother has died to inherit the throne.
Therefore, of course, Qiao Mu had to speak for him.
At the same time, with Confucian monarchs and ministers, fathers and sons, with the morality of the world as the core of the topic, directly attacked all the ministers present who supported the prince.
The previous ministers were arguing fiercely.
But because their respective support is basically not the five princes, and the other princes have all done things in a vain attempt to kill the king and kill their father, so they can't attack others with this point at all, so they can only deliberately skip this point and mention it on the grounds that the prince has made a little mistake.
But now it is pointed out bluntly by the arbor.
No matter how thick-skinned they are, it's hard to refute.
And at this time, the old princes of the clan who were speechless by those ministers hurriedly jumped out and loudly praised Qiao Mu's words:
"What the concubine said is very true!
If he is allowed to ascend the throne, then won't all the people in the world be able to kill the king and kill his father in the future, what kind of heart do you wait for these ministers, don't you think that the life of my dynasty is too long, and you want to cut off the foundation of our dynasty? ”
"Maybe the prince didn't mean it that way!"
Still, there are people who hold on.
Insisting on talking nonsense with his eyes open.
However, he was immediately spit on by a prince of the clan: "I, you want to have face, the face of the eighteenth generation of ancestors is not enough to be lost by you, next time your son wants to kill you, I will send a pennant to your son, and set up your son in the Temple of Literature for the literati of all generations?"
Or you killed your father.
I will send you into the Temple of Literature.
The real TM is shameless and invincible in the world. ”
At this time, the ministers who had quarreled more passionately in the DPRK and China were a little silent, because although they were ministers of the DPRK and China, they were also supporters of Confucian monarchs and ministers, fathers and sons.
Once this opening is opened.
Then the foundation of Confucianism must be shaken.
They didn't expect this before, they only thought about pushing the prince they were surrounded by to the throne.
Get a dragon skill.
But now it seems that I am afraid that it will not work.
If they do this, and the annals of history are clearly recorded, when the time comes, I am afraid that they will have to leave a stench for 10,000 years, which is obviously something they are very unwilling to see, let alone accept.
Therefore, they also wavered.
But shaking and shaking, it does not mean that they will accept other side branches of the clan to inherit the throne, however, at this time, it is obvious that the crown prince and another prince who is not physically disabled can be used as important candidates, so they can only choose to support the five princes, but the five princes have no problem in the general righteousness, as for the injury on the leg is a little lame, they can dislike it before, but now they can't dislike it at all, just such a prince who has no problem in righteousness can inherit the throne, If he refuses on the grounds that he is lame, it will not be a gift to the clan.
Then, it's just a matter of continuing to argue.
Qiao Mu did not continue to speak after saying a word, but quietly continued to listen to their quarrel, ready to wait for them to quarrel to an important moment before interjecting, half an hour later, the minister of the DPRK and the central government was finally about to win.
At this time, Qiao Mu also said with a timely smile:
"As far as this palace knows, the injury on the leg of the fifth prince is not very serious, and a little lame is not a big problem.
Moreover, who has explicitly said that the emperor's body cannot be disabled, did Emperor Taizu say it? Did Emperor Gaozu say that? Or is what you're saying representative of the royal rules?
Don't forget.
Emperor Gaozu's ears were also mutilated. ”
That's right, Qiao Mu gave those clan princes a blow at the most appropriate time, and completely established the matter of the five princes inheriting the throne, although she didn't make a big contribution, but she did guide the topic at a critical moment, which is really gratifying.
And at this time, most of those ministers also understood, and they all understood that Hui Guifei might have valued the five princes more from the beginning and wanted to push the five princes to the throne, but now that the matter has come to this, even if they want to regret it, there is no possibility, they can only follow the path discussed earlier, and completely determine that the five princes will be the heirs to the throne, and after he enters Beijing, the five princes will start to take charge of the regents.
As for the enthronement.
It depends on when the emperor dies.
After all, the emperor is not dead now, and he did not say that the emperor would ascend the throne if he did not die, as for letting the emperor abdicate and become the emperor, this situation was not considered at all, because all the ministers felt that Emperor Kangwei was estimated to not live for a few days, and he was dying in the last few days, so there was no need to consider the situation of being the emperor, if the five princes were lucky, they might die as soon as they arrived in the capital, then he would not have to act as the crown prince of the regent first, and he could directly ascend the throne and be the emperor.
As for the specifics?
It all depends on how many days Conway Emperor can live.
After the matter was settled here, Qiao Mu was worried that there might be danger on the way back for the five princes, if the five princes were accidentally ambushed and killed on the road, then some of her previous plans would have to be invalidated, Qiao Mu really didn't want to fail and hit his confidence again, so as soon as the ministers left, he quickly ordered An Nan to pass on the news to her father, and asked her father to send some people to protect the five princes along the road into Beijing.
The strength of her father's generals is quite good, as long as someone does not send a large army to besiege it, there should be no problems for the five princes to return to Beijing.
As for if there is a real siege by a large army.
Then it can only be regarded as the fate of the five princes.
Qiao Mu now has neither military power nor is it easy to meddle in the affairs of the court, and she has to rely on her father to help her do something, where can he have the ability to dispatch an army to protect him, it can only depend on whether he has this life.
