Chapter 212: Mandate of Heaven
Nie Qingwan left the palace from the palace and returned to the palace of mercy, just went back to see a lot of ministers, Nie Qingwan knew what they came to visit, for the sacrifice day of Emperor Yinzu, the royal family of the late Yin for the late king have implemented a one-year return system, which means that the emperor died, within a year the soul is still the great Yin, rest and raise the people, a year later, the soul is ascended, leave the world, integrate into the vast universe, silently guard the great Yin, and the ceremony to hold this sacrifice day is presided over by the new emperor.
It's just that there is no new emperor in Da Yin at present.
Nie Qingwan glanced around the ministers who came to visit, and said to Ren Ji, "Go and invite King De to come here." ”
Ren Ji answered yes and hurried down.
It's not yet time for dinner, but it's almost time, Yin De greeted Yin Tianye in his Dewang Mansion, Yin Tianye has been called to Dewang Mansion from time to time since he came back from playing the East Hammer, asking him what happened in the five months of the East Hammer.
Although it is to ask about things, it is more about asking about what the little queen mother did.
In fact, Yin De has already heard what the little queen mother did, but what Yin De wants to hear is those who don't know.
Yin Tianye can actually not say much, although he has followed the little queen mother for more than five months, but he is not Yin Xuan, Yin Xuan follows the little queen mother every day, but even Yin Xuan, he is not the honor to serve in the little queen mother's tent at night, you must know the little queen mother's bit by bit, only to find Ren Ji and Nie Yin.
But after looking for these two people, these two people will not be as honest as him and say anything.
Yin Tianye was thinking about how to explain to Yin De, and Ren Ji came and said that the Queen Mother Xuande had entered the palace.
Yin De squinted his eyes, and didn't ask what he was doing at this time, the Queen Mother announced what he was doing in the palace, and directly took Yin Tianye and went to the palace.
Yin De was indeed very dissatisfied with this little queen mother before, he was not convinced in his heart, and he was not convinced on his face, but after last year's New Year's tribute, although he was still a little dissatisfied with the little queen mother, at least he would not go to her from time to time and speak disrespectfully to her.
This time, the little queen mother led the troops to the land of the East Hammer and quietly took down two small countries, even though Yin De was still very resistant to his dignified Yin family, the highest ranking person in the royal family, but he wanted to bow his head to a little girl, listen to her words, listen to her dispatch, but he still left a little thin face for her.
This is what she earns by her own ability, and Yin De will give her a table.
If this was obtained by her through the power of the Nie clan, Yin De would not give her face.
Yin De took Yin Tianye into the palace and went to the Ci'en Palace, Ren Ji led them all the way to the study, at this moment the study has set up chairs for the ministers, and tea has been served, Nie Yin and Yin Xuan are on both sides of Nie Qingwan, Nie Qingwan sits behind the desk, while chatting with the ministers about the stationing of officials in Xingjun and Baichuan County, while listening to Nie Zhuyou's report on Xia Qian's situation in pacifying the people in the two counties, and when Yin De brings Yin Tianye here, these topics have not stopped, and continue to discuss in this strict study.
After Ren Ji came back, Nie Qingwan asked Yin Xuan to sit down too, sitting at the front of the tables that were placed for the courtiers, not only in front of the ministers, but also in front of Yin De.
The ministers were slightly stunned, but they quickly understood the intention of the Queen Mother's arrangement, and now Yin Xuan is not simply an inconspicuous concubine of the Yin royal family, he is the next generation of Emperor Yin that the Queen Mother wants to cultivate, and it is natural to sit at the top.
The ministers didn't say anything, and if they put it aside in the past, they might still oppose it, or deliberately contradict the queen mother, so that she couldn't get off the stage, but today, they all sat there quietly, all by the arrangement of the queen mother.
Yin De didn't say anything, even though he was a little unhappy on his face, he glanced at Yin Xuan coldly, but he didn't say anything disrespectful to the Queen Mother.
Nie Qingwan didn't care what Yin De thought or what the ministers thought, after Yin Xuan sat down, Nie Qingwan proposed the sacrifice day of Emperor Yin Zu who was about to come up, Nie Qingwan said: "On the day of the first emperor's sacrifice, Yin Xuan will preside over the ceremony. ”
Originally, there was no emperor, and it should be the most virtuous and respected person in the Yin royal family to preside, and this person was undoubtedly Yin De.
The reason why the Yin royal family didn't bother her with this matter was that their own people had already discussed it, and Yin De was solely responsible for this matter, but now the little queen mother was meddling in the affairs of his Yin royal family!
Well, Emperor Yin Zu is her husband, she is the person entrusted by Emperor Yin Zu on his deathbed, and she is now the queen mother, so she has the right to meddle in this matter, but it is too nonsense to let Yin Xuan preside over it.
Not to mention that Yin Xuan is not an emperor or a prince now, even if he is, he is just an eight-year-old child, how can he preside?
Yin De said: "This is not appropriate, Yin Xuan is too young, and he doesn't have any identity to rely on, how can he take on such an important ceremony to preside, I have to go to this matter." ”
Nie Qingwan said: "Everything is practiced, if you don't let him do it, how can he do it well?" ”
Yin De said: "Then you can't use this matter to practice for him, this is not a matter of training." ”
Nie Qingwan raised her eyebrows: "Practice? ”
She smiled faintly and said, "It's not hand training. ”
She looked at every minister sitting and said, "You all know that the emperor entrusted the order to the palace, let the palace choose the next emperor, and you all know the person chosen by the palace, it is Yin Xuan." However, although he was selected by me, he may not be able to satisfy the emperor, so on the day of the sacrifice, he has to go to the emperor in person, let you see, and let everyone in the world see, whether he is the emperor of the mandate of heaven, the rite is completed, the mandate of heaven is returned, the rite is not successful, then he will return to the original point, and the palace will pick another new emperor from the Yin royal family. ”
Hearing this, Yin Xuan's fingers tightened silently, and he raised his head slightly and looked at Nie Qingwan.
But Nie Qingwan didn't look at him, just looked at every minister present, looked at Yin De, and asked him, "What does King De think?" ”
Yin De glanced at Yin Xuan, and said without emotion: "The Queen Mother has said this, what else can this king think, this king has always said that the Queen Mother can't say it, the Queen Mother always has a reason to refute it, you said that this worship is to let the first emperor judge whether Yin Xuan is qualified to be the next emperor, if this king is against it, doesn't it mean that this king is preventing the first emperor from determining the continuation of the person, then okay, let Yin Xuan preside over and let him preside, I hope this ceremony can really be done." ”
After he finished speaking, he stood up and left.
Yin Tianye paused for a moment and left as well.
Nie Qingwan ignored the two people who left, and asked the ministers, "What are your opinions?" ”
How dare the ministers have any opinions, King De agreed, they naturally agreed, and the ministers all nodded in agreement.
Nie Qingwan saw that this matter was decided, the hour was not early, and she was also a little hungry, so she didn't leave these ministers, and when the ministers left, Nie Qingwan asked Nie Yin to inform Chuandian.
When dinner was set, Nie Qingwan and Yin Xuan sat there eating one high and one low.
Yin Xuan pinched the chopsticks, and after a few hesitations, he still spoke: "If the etiquette is not successful, do you really want to put me back to the original point?" ”
Nie Qingwan glanced at him: "Why do you think that the ceremony is not good?" ”
Yin Xuan said: "Intuition. ”
Nie Qingwan said: "Well, with such an intuition, it means that you are quite keen, Yin De knows that I am going to lend the day of the emperor's worship to determine your unchangeable destiny, once this is determined, it will be difficult for anyone to change it, whether it is someone who sincerely accepts you or someone who does not sincerely accept you, they will be forced to accept you by the mandate of heaven, and after the ceremony is completed, the people of the world will be willing to surrender to you, and at the same time, they will also think that I, the queen mother, will live up to the trust and expectations, and then my position will be more stable, so that Yin De didn't have any available opportunity to seek this throne for Yin Tianye, so he would definitely destroy it. ”
Yin Xuan was shocked: "Then you still say that today?" ”
Nie Qingwan raised her eyebrows: "Isn't this a good opportunity?" A chance for you to be invincible forever, a chance for this palace to be invincible forever. ”
Yin Xuan was stunned.
Nie Qingwan said: "There will definitely be danger, but this palace has handed over this matter to you, what to do, that's your business." ”
Yin Xuan's cold forehead twitched fiercely, what does this mean? Did she sit and watch the tiger fight? Let him fight with Yin De and the entire Yin royal family, how can he be virtuous!
I think too much of him.
Moreover, her wishful thinking is also too good, taking advantage of the Yin family's infighting to gain a firm foothold, and pushing him to the most dangerous place to take the lead, she let go and sit in the back to watch the play, how can she be so bad!
Yin Xuan's face was very ugly, he couldn't eat any food, he put down his chopsticks and didn't plan to eat.
Nie Qingwan looked at him as he put his chopsticks aside, smiled and asked Ren Ji to give Yin Xuan a bowl of dishes, Yin Xuan looked at the bowl of dishes, pursed his lips fiercely, and raised his eyes to look at her.
Nie Qingwan said, "What? When you don't let you do things, you blame me, and you blame me when you do things, then you say, will I give you something to do next time? ”
She said, deliberately in a reminiscent tone: "Five months ago, someone wanted to ride a horse, I didn't let him ride, he put on a face for me all the way, someone wanted to take the lead, I didn't let him go, he was angry and didn't guard me at night, I told him at that time, he is the future prince, is the future son of heaven, he wants to do things differently from them, but he just doesn't listen, and thinks I'm doing something like him, now?" When it's time to do it, it's time to coax again? ”
Yin Xuan could hear it, she was 'revenge' against him.
She didn't let him ride a horse, and he was really upset, but where did he put a face on her all the way? Didn't he buy her a gift when he met the city? Why are you holding a grudge so much!
Also, why didn't he protect her that night? He obviously slept on the ground not far from her bed, although he didn't sleep in the bed, but he was also guarding her! How could she turn black and white upside down like this!
Yin Xuan picked up the chopsticks again, and he slowly ate the bowl of dishes that Ren Ji gave him, and his little face bulged when he ate, obviously very unhappy.
Nie Qingwan saw him eat it, and laughed out loud, Yin Xuan heard her laughter, and felt that she was so bad, he was worried to death, she still laughed, fighting with Yin De and the Yin royal family, he was really not sure.
If the etiquette is abolished, she will not do anything, but he will give up all his efforts.
According to her temperament, she will really send him back to the Yin royal family as she said, and from now on, everything about him has nothing to do with her, and he will not become the second 'chosen one' again."
Yin Xuan knew that this time, he was not facing a predicament, but a desperate situation.
And want to PUBG......
Yin Xuan ate the vegetables in silence, and did not say a word, this was his own war, she would not help him, he knew that she was actually testing his ability in this way.
At the same time, it also made Yin Xuan deeply know that he was not a puppet in her hands.
If it was a puppet, she wouldn't arrange it that way.
According to her intelligence and ability, she wants to assist a puppet, which is effortless, but it takes a lot of effort to cultivate a real emperor, and a real emperor, the first thing to do is to get the approval of the people.
He knew that he only had this one chance, and he could only win, not lose.
Yin Xuan's movements of chewing rice are getting faster and faster, and eating vegetables is getting faster and faster, after gobbling up his stomach, he put down his chopsticks, drank the mouthwash tea brought by the palace maid, and then stood up and said to Nie Qingwan, who was still eating the food slowly, "I'll go first." ”
Nie Qingwan didn't raise her head, only her voice came out softly: "Go ahead." ”
What is Yin Xuan going to do? Turning over the wall of Yinde, the day of worship is half a month later, Yinde will definitely shout that the people of the Yin royal family are plotting during this time, and then deploy, he doesn't want to buy the people of the Yin royal family, and he doesn't believe them, so he only comes and eavesdrops himself.
But before he came over, he still strengthened the internal strength and mental method again, without Yin Tianye, Yin Xuan would not be so careful, but with Yin Tianye, he had to be careful.
After that night, Yin Xuan went to climb Yin De's wall every day, sometimes Yin De was not there, the study was empty, he went to Yin Tianye's courtyard, sometimes Yin Tianye's courtyard was empty, Yin Xuan had to find every courtyard, this Yin De is really a bastard, in exchange for showing your shrewdness and ability!
After climbing the Five Heavens Wall and eavesdropping on the corners of the Five Heavens Wall, Yin Xuan finally heard how they were plotting.
Of course, it's uncertain whether this was really planned or deliberately let him overhear.
However, whether it is true or false, he has to be on guard.
On the sixth day, Yin Xuan sat cross-legged on the martial arts training ground and beckoned to Gancheng.
Gan Cheng hurriedly collected his weapon, walked over, wiped the sweat on his face, and asked him, "My lord has something to order?" ”
Yin Xuan said: "There is something, there is a big thing. ”
Gan Cheng smiled and asked, "What's the big deal?" ”
Yin Xuan glanced at him, and then glanced at the 1,999 soldiers who were practicing martial arts, supported the ground with his hands, jumped up with a bullet, clapped his palms, and said to Gan Cheng: "Follow me." ”
After a while, Gan Cheng walked back again, holding the thick paper and ink in his hand, and he beckoned to the soldiers: "Come here, come here, come here!" ”
When everyone came, he sent them the paper one by one, and said: "Sign the certificate of life and death, today this big seal is drawn, you will follow the little prince to do great things, if you are lucky enough to survive, it is rich and noble, if you are unfortunately sacrificed, then you should sacrifice your life for the country, those who are timid and afraid, those who have whimsical thoughts, all get out." ”
As soon as Gan Cheng said this, some people asked what he wanted to do.
Gan Cheng didn't say anything, he only asked him to sign the life and death certificate first, and the person who signed the life and death certificate was his own person, and he was qualified to listen to what the big deal was.
Many people signed, and many people didn't.
And those who didn't sign, Gan Cheng sent them all away, but, unfortunately, Yin Xuan is not a good person, nor is he a good person, even if these soldiers were brought up by him himself, he spent a long time to cultivate, but knowing today's events, they didn't stay, and they still wanted to leave, how could it be?
Yin Xuan barely blinked, and extinguished those who wanted to leave.
Whoever is in his way, who is likely to betray him, he will not let him live in the world.
Last time, his sword didn't see blood, because the Queen Mother said that no one should be hurt.
But this time, the Queen Mother didn't care about him, he could only subdue his own people in his own way.
Only one person was beheaded, and the rest of the people were frightened and rolled back, obediently signed a life and death order, where would they dare to have a different heart from now on!
And the one who died, Yin Xuan asked Gan Cheng to deal with it, and gave his family a rich comfort, the so-called rich comfort is money, and all this money is paid by Yin Xuan himself, and he made up another reason, just say that he was accidentally killed by a sword during a martial arts competition.
This reason used to be suspicious, but now, no one is.
Because the Queen Mother once led the troops to the land of the East Hammer, before the expedition, 10,000 soldiers were recruited and handed over to several young generals for personal training.
If you don't have the ability, you will die when you die.
For Yin Xuan's behavior of killing his own soldiers, some people are very cold, but when they are cold, they are frightened, at this time, there are many soldiers who do not understand Yin Xuan, but later they understand, when they experience all kinds of things in the future, when they rise step by step with the young prince, they know how wise today's choice is.
Yin Xuan stood there with a cold face, taking out a handkerchief and wiping the blood on his sword.
Waiting for Gan Cheng to take the life and death forms drawn by everyone, Yin Xuan took a look, put his sword into the sheath, took the pile of paper, put it in his sleeve pocket, and then conveyed the battle plan to them.
The body of Emperor Yin Zu has been put into the tomb of the imperial mausoleum, and the worship ceremony will be held, which is also in the royal mausoleum.
When it was rumored in the palace that Yin Xuan was presiding over this worship ceremony, the people were frequently surprised, but with the decree of the Queen Mother, they knew that this ceremony was not only a ceremony, but also to let Yin Xuan undergo the test to see if it was the heir also chosen by Emperor Yin Zu, the people were boiling again, and after the boiling, there was infinite anticipation!
They also want to know whether the next generation of emperors chosen by the Queen Mother is really the choice of destiny.
Nie Qingwan is very quiet these days, Yin Xuan is too busy to come over to eat with her, and she doesn't send anyone to pass on, there was originally Nie Gongshu in the court, and after Nie Gongshu left, it was the civil and military prime minister and the major military generals who were in charge, and the civil and military prime ministers were all from Nie Mansion, although Nie Mansion was high and powerful, but it was not arbitrary, and when it came to major events, it would invite the ministers to discuss, and occasionally invite Yin De to preside over the overall situation, but most of the time, many twists and turns would pass through Nie Qingwan's hands, and then return to Jinluan Palace, and during this time, There is only one person that Nie Qingwan pays the most attention to, and that is Xia Qian.
Xia Qian sent the folds from Jingjun and Baichuan County, Nie Qingwan must have read every book, and read it very carefully.
After reading what Xia Qian had done today, knowing that the people of Xingjun and Baichuan County had surrendered with peace of mind, and some troublemakers were also resolved by Xia Qian, Nie Qingwan put the music together and let Ren Ji take it down.
Nie Yin served Nie Qingwan a cup of tea, and Nie Qingwan took it up and drank it.
When the cup was put down, she asked Nie Yin, "What has Yin Xuan been doing these days?" ”
Nie Yin smiled and said, "I don't know, but it looks like I'm busy." ”
Nie Qingwan said: "He has a sharp energy, this sharp energy can destroy all Shen Ke and old diseases, so I can't let him have an accident, and I won't let him have an accident, you go out of the palace at night, take me a letter back to the Nie family, and let the Nie family help secretly." ”
Nie Yin was stunned for a moment, and responded: "I thought you really let him do it alone, maybe he really has that ability?" ”
Nie Qingwan raised her eyebrows: "Auntie is right, he is indeed doing it alone, I just want him to know that he does have this ability, he can defeat Yin De and the Yin royal family with his own strength, he is the destiny of heaven." Only if he believes in himself, others will believe, and if he believes in himself, he will become stronger and stronger until he is invincible. Auntie, we didn't do anything. ”
