Xiao Xun thought that he was about to inherit the throne, and he could wake up with a smile in his sleep.
The other brothers are no match for him.
The throne, who else is it.
In private, there are already brothers who congratulate him in person.
Even the eldest brother Xiao Guo said to him: "Congratulations! ”
"Big brother is angry? Thou art the eldest son, but your father did not pass on the throne to thee......"
"Second brother doesn't need to say it." Xiao Guo interrupted him, "Many years ago, I already knew that I had no chance of being on the throne. I only hope that the second brother will inherit the throne and be kind to all brothers and sisters. ”
Xiao Xun said solemnly: "Big brother, don't worry, everyone is a brother." Brothers are of the same heart, and their profits are golden. ”
"Good!"
Xiao Guo turned his back and lowered his eyes, and his eyes flashed with a sharp man.
Hum!
Xiao Xun was too happy too early.
Even his father was toyed with by his younger brother Xiao Yi between applause, not to mention Xiao Xun.
The throne must be theirs.
At this moment, Xiao Guo had unprecedented confidence in his younger brother Xiao Yi.
……
The throne of Dongping Palace, no matter who it is given to, Emperor Yongtai doesn't care.
No matter who inherits the throne, he can't escape from his Five Finger Mountain.
But......
Emperor Yongtai had to pay attention to the opinion of Shi Wen, Marquis of Pingwu.
He chatted casually with the people around him: "Pingwu Marquis Shiwen is the brother of King Dongping's original wife, but the two have not been in contact for many years. ”
Sun Bangnian and Sun Gonggong bowed down and said: "Since the death of King Dongping's original wife, Marquis Pingwu seems to have cut off contact with the Dongping Palace. It wasn't until many years later that Gongziyi defected to Pingwuhou. ”
Emperor Yongtai nodded, "It can be seen that Pingwu Marquis Shi Wen has a lot of dissatisfaction with King Dongping, otherwise he would not have asked for the title." As for who will inherit the throne, if I remember correctly, King Dongping's original wife gave birth to two sons, except for Xiao Yi, the other ......"
"Xiao Guo, the eldest son, was also born to the original match." Sun Bangnian added in a low voice.
Emperor Yongtai tapped lightly on the table, noncommittal.
Sun Bangnian was also unsure of the emperor's thoughts, so he naturally didn't dare to speak casually.
……
The courtiers also had something to say about who would inherit the throne.
Some people support the eldest son Xiao Guo to inherit the throne, and some people support the second son Xiao Xun to inherit the throne.
There is also support for the choice of concubines to inherit the throne, on the grounds that it is convenient to control.
This is simply madness.
The difference between the descendants and the concubines can not be messed up.
Let the throne be inherited by the concubine, even if it is a throne without real power, it will mess up the rules and give the world a very bad head.
The officials who can stand in the court and make an impassioned speech are basically the sons of the family.
On the side of the generals, there may be concubines, but there are very few.
These officials are naturally disgusted with the appearance of their concubines.
Resolutely implement the distinction between the descendants and the descendants.
The royal family can mess with the concubine and let the concubine inherit the throne.
But the family, as well as the princes and kings, can't mess with the concubines.
If there is a grandson, there will be a step-son.
Shuzi, stand aside.
This kind of big thing, the little concubine should not come out to be embarrassed and disgusted.
A concubine, delusional to snatch the family inheritance with his sister-in-law, what a joke. It's a ridiculous joke.
Even the officials who proposed a concubine to inherit the throne were unanimously despised and disliked by the courtiers.
Shafts are abominable!
You can't do anything with it.
Emperor Yongtai also preferred to inherit the throne by his son-in-law, so as not to be criticized.
Anyway, the princes and kings can't turn over the wind and waves, and they have all become toothless tigers, looking decent, but in fact they have no real power.
The throne of the Dongping Palace, who will inherit it, the king of Dongping himself must have something to say.
Taking advantage of the fact that he had not yet officially seized the title and was confined, King Dongping had the courage to go to the throne and implore him to hand over the throne to his second son Xiao Xun to inherit.
Normally, the emperor would nod his head in agreement.
Give some face!
have already won the knighthood, and the last requirement is to meet him.
However, the emperor also had to consider the face of Pingwu Marquis Shi Wen.
The courtiers also had to take into account the thoughts of Shi Wen, Marquis of Pingwu.
The face of the king of Dongping can not be given, but the face of Pingwu Hou Shiwen cannot be withheld.
King Dongping, I'm sorry!
Who made you lose face as much as Pingwuhou Shiwen, who made you fill the house with your wife's brother not as good as Pingwuhou Shiwen, and his words were not as useful as Pingwuhou Shiwen.
The emperor and his courtiers happily decided to let their eldest son, Xiao Guo, succeed to the throne.
All members unanimously passed, and no one objected.
If you have any objections, call back.
……
The decree was sent to the palace of Dongping and has not yet been announced.
Princess Qin was already trembling with excitement, and her eyes were shining.
Xiao Xun has a reserved face, he must be restrained, he can't laugh, he must not laugh.
Such a serious occasion.
Moreover, after the decree was announced, the father and the mother were to be imprisoned and not to be free.
At this time, show a smile and beware of being accused of unfilial piety.
So, he must not only be reserved, but also sad.
Sadly bid farewell to his father and mother.
King Dongping himself had no love on his face, and this day finally came.
I am unwilling!
can be a prince, who is willing to abdicate, and will be imprisoned.
Life is too miserable, it is better to cross the river and hide in the deep mountains and old forests to be a toast.
Xiao Guo was tense, his expression was serious, and his hands were clenched.
Whose name is written in the will?
Could it be his name?
Did his younger brother Xiao Yat get things done? Where are the others now, are they in the capital?
Xiao Guo's mood was up and down, the top of his head was bloodshot, and his eyes were almost red.
The eunuch who announced the decree was Yan Yunge's old acquaintance Ding Chang's father-in-law.
At the beginning, Gonggong Ding welcomed the Xiao family, the lord of Zhuyang County, into the capital and returned to the palace to resume his life, which was very low-key for a while.
Recently, it has begun to emerge again.
When the incense table was properly placed, Gonggong Ding took another sip of tea before starting to read the holy decree.
The Dongping Wangfu knelt down to meet the holy decree.
How much time does it take to go from euphoria to rage?
For Princess Qin, it only takes a breath of time.
Xiao Guo?
The person who inherited the throne turned out to be Xiao Guo, not Xiao Xun?
How can it be!
It must have been that she had misheard, that something had gone wrong.
She grabbed King Dongping's hand, her pupils dilated.
She heard it wrong, right?
King Dongping was also confused.
He seemed to have heard Xiao Guo's name.
By the time Gonggong Ding finished reading the holy decree, the family was still kneeling on the ground and did not move.
Gonggong Ding coughed lightly, "Lord Wang, take the order quickly!" ”
King Dongping received the holy decree and stood up tremblingly.
He stared at the contents of the holy decree, and sure enough, it was Xiao Guo.
"Didn't you make a mistake?" He subconsciously asked.
When Gonggong Ding heard this, he smiled happily, "The prince is really good at laughing, this is a holy decree, there is a jade seal on it, and there is the emperor's seal of the Son of Heaven, how can it be wrong." Don't say this again. ”
King Dongping was very confused, "How can this be? ”
"Is the prince dissatisfied with the holy decree?" Father-in-law Ding seemed to be smiling.
King Dongping shook his head again and again, "It should be Xun'er, how did it become Xiao Guo?" This king asked Feng Xun'er to inherit the throne, there should be no mistake! ”
Gonggong Ding said with a smile: "Maybe Your Majesty and all the courtiers think that it is not appropriate for Prince Xiao Xun to inherit the throne, and it is justified for the eldest son Xiao Guo to inherit the throne." ”
"This, this, this ......"
King Dongping looked dazed, he looked back at the princess Qin, and his face was full of desire to survive.
It's not his fault!
He had already asked Xiao Xun to inherit the throne, but the emperor didn't agree!
Princess Qin's face was pale, and if her eyes were to kill someone, King Dongping would have been killed by her thousands of times.
As for Xiao Guo, she has been killed 10,000 times, 10,000 times.
Xiao Xun was still kneeling on the ground, unable to react.
His face was full of astonishment, shock, and disbelief......
In private, he was already celebrating his imminent succession to the throne, although it was a throne without real power, it was also a throne.
Now he told him that there was someone else who would succeed him, and that the throne had nothing to do with him.
His face, his inside, and his bright future are all gone.
He didn't dare to look into the eyes of others, for fear that everyone would laugh at him and ridicule him.
Xiao Xun, who has been pampered since he was a child and has never suffered such embarrassment, at this moment, just wants to escape from the scene and avoid everyone's sight.
Why?
Countless people have questions.
How could Xiao Guo, who is inconspicuous, defeat Xiao Xun and inherit the throne?
It's too mysterious.
At this moment, everyone seems to have forgotten one thing, Xiao Guo has a terrible uncle, that is, Pingwu Hou Shi Wen.
He also has a terrible cousin, Ling Changzhi.
Compared with the princess Qin's maiden family, whether it is Pingwu Marquis Shiwen or the Ling family, they can throw out a hundred streets of the Qin family, which is awesome.
Gonggong Ding broke the air of silence.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty has given you three days, and after three days, you should pack your belongings and go to live elsewhere. At that time, there will be officials from Zongzheng Temple to help the prince settle. ”
King Dongping's face changed, "Only give three days?" How can this and this be in time? ”
Gonggong Ding said with a smile: "I have to move if I don't have time." Could it be that the prince wants to resist the decree? ”
Resistance?
If the king of Dongping had the courage to resist the decree, he would not have fallen into today's situation.
"Our family has to go back to the palace to resume their lives, farewell!"
"Come on, send Father-in-law Ding out."
The eunuchs in the palace must not be offended.
His own steward took the gold and silver and sent Ding's father-in-law and his party out.
……
"I don't believe it!"
Princess Qin roared instantly.
As soon as Father-in-law Ding left, she naturally had no scruples.
King Dongping seemed to be a little afraid of the angry princess Qin, and said cautiously: "The holy decree is clearly written, it is indeed the name of the boss, hey, the matter has come to this, the king himself is difficult to protect, and the throne is like this!" ”
"I disagree!" Princess Qin's voice was exhausted, and her eyes were red, "The throne was originally for Xun'er, why should it be given to the boss?" ”
At this time, she couldn't care about her face and directly pierced the window paper.
King Dongping sighed, "With this holy decree, the boss is the head of this palace, and he will inherit the throne in the name of righteousness." Princess, don't make any more trouble. If you are not convinced, you will go to the palace to reason with the emperor. The king did what he had to do, and he didn't expect this result. But at this point, what can we do but accept it? ”
Princess Qin howled and cried, "The prince harmed my mother and son!" This is going to kill us! ”
She hugged her baby son Xiao Xun.
"It's better to die now, lest he be tortured to death in the future!"
