Chapter 361: Captain of the Envoy (1)
…………
Loulan continued to attack Persia in the north, and in the latest battle, the king of Loulan ordered Qina to serve as a military advisor, with a rank higher than the main general, and he could directly give orders to the soldiers, while he himself paid a private visit and went out of the palace to Weitou, a hundred miles away, to the appointment invited by the king of Weitou.
A few months ago, because of a wrong move by Prince Songqi, Loulan and Weitou were unhappy, although King Weitou exchanged weapons, he understood that he could not completely calm the anger of King Loulan, seeing that Loulan had recently won battles one after another, becoming the second largest country in the Western Regions, King Weitou couldn't sit still, afraid that Loulan would attack them one day, so he found an excuse and invited King Loulan to Weitou as a guest.
The real purpose of the so-called guest is to talk to the king of Loulan face-to-face, hoping that the captain can ally with Loulan and reach a military deal, so that even if Loulan starts the idea of the captain one day in the future, he can't be a treacherous hypocrite and tear up the treaty to attack them.
In order to welcome the arrival of the King of Loulan, the King of Yutou spent a lot of thought, just to welcome the banquet, and the dishes were as many as 100 dishes, including their local specialties of Yutou, and there were also Loulan dishes that cater to the preferences of the King of Loulan.
When the army of the king of Loulan arrived at Weitou, the soldiers of the palace came out early in the morning to maintain order on the road and stationed on the road where the king of Loulan passed, so as not to let anyone break into the road and disturb the holy car, as for the people of the capital city, they were particularly excited that day, and as early as before the arrival of the king of Loulan, the water on both sides of the road was blocked, just to get a glimpse of the king's heroic appearance.
About the wisdom of the king of Loulan, in recent years famous, especially this year, his deeds are a household name, now everyone knows that Loulan has a violent king, although the means are ruthless, but the leader of Loulan is growing stronger, everyone wants to see with their own eyes, whether he is as legendary as the legend is extraordinarily terrifying.
This dinner is not an ordinary dinner, not only the king of Loulan attends, but the king of Weitou is also ready to announce an important event to the outside world, as for what is the big event, the ministers have different opinions.
One of the most credible rumors about what the Weitou King wanted to say was that he wanted to abdicate and make way for Xian, intending to assist the crown prince to ascend the throne.
A month ago, the upright and middle-aged Weitou King suddenly fainted on the way to an early court, and was diagnosed with a head disease by the imperial doctor, his illness had begun to attack a few months ago, at first it was only occasionally a little painful, he didn't take it to heart, and then as time went by, the illness became more and more serious, and the frequency of headaches became more and more frequent.
The imperial physician advised the king of Weitou to recuperate, but the busy state affairs pressed on his head and there was no room for breathing, and after insisting on it from everyone for several months, the body of the king of Weitou finally couldn't bear it and completely collapsed.
He was in a coma for five days and five nights, all the concubines and princes in the harem waited by the bedside, waiting for the awakening of the king of Weitou, his illness made the court usher in a new side, and the officials of the court and China were quickly separated into three factions, one faction supported the orthodox Songqi prince and one party, one faction of three princes and one party, and the other faction, secretly plotting for many years, intending to change the dynasty and change the party. Recently, these three parties have secretly mobilized their respective forces to gather in the capital city, waiting for the King of Weitou to announce the holy decree, if it is true that everyone speculates that the King of Weitou intends to pass the throne to Songqi, I am afraid that tonight will become an unpeaceful night!
…………
At the time, the ministers arrived one after another, and the king of Yutou sat on the top dragon chair with the support of the guards and the queen Su Li, as for the most important person in this banquet, King Loulan, I heard that he was stationed in the post house outside the city to rest, and he should be on his way at this time.
He deliberately invited King Loulan to enter the palace and said that it was too late, and he wanted to announce the holy decree to the courtiers before inviting him into the palace.
The Huayin Hall of Nuoda was full of hundreds of civil and military officials who came to the banquet, and everyone in the hall looked up at the haggard Weitou King in the upper direction, nervously waiting for his speech.
It is hard to imagine that the head of the lieutenant who is in the prime of life is usually in good health, in just one month, he looks several years old, and after days of taking medicine and bed rest, his body is much better than before, but he is still very weak.
The Captain King accepted the attention of the ministers with a calm face, swept over the people of different colors below, raised his rough hand without saying a word, and motioned for the guards to read out the holy decree he had already prepared.
"Fengtian carrier, the emperor edict said, Lone succeeded to the throne for twenty years for six years, the year is rich and valley run, the world is peaceful, these twenty years, Lone early Dynasty Yan, day by day, busy with state affairs and negligent body, since the evil disease into the body, lonely day and day sick devil, unbearable pain, no intention to govern state affairs! Fortunately, the fifth prince Songqi has a valuable character, and he resisted the important task of the country and the society for Lone, and Lone thought that the country was in his hands, and he was very relieved! Lone decided that from today onwards, the throne will be passed on to the crown prince Songqi, and the princes shall not object, and from now on they will work together to wear the new king, and all the courtiers will also carefully assist the new lord and support the society together. ”
Unexpectedly, but shocking the decision of the four seats, the guards thought about it, and the hall was in an uproar, and everyone whispered.
"Please think twice!"
After a half-time ring, a minister hurriedly walked out of his seat, came to the center of the main hall, and pleaded: "Prince Songqi is too young and lacks experience in handling state affairs, even if the old ministers are fully assisted......... is still limited in ability, please hold on to the Holy Lord for another two or three years, and when the prince is successful, it will not be too late to pass on the throne to him! ”
The old ministers did not agree with the abdication of King Yutou, because the power and ability of Prince Songqi were not enough, and it was difficult to convince the people to ascend the throne at this time......... There is a lot of blood in the fight for the throne!
The old ministers did not want the prince of Songqi to ascend the throne, and hoped that the king of Weitou would take back his fate, but as soon as the holy decree came out and Chrysostom opened, where was the reason to take it back? Moreover, King Weitou just wanted to take advantage of this illness to find a reason to pass the throne to Songqi, and it was impossible to regret it.
"Ahem, cough, cough ........."
Deliberately covering his mouth and coughing a few times, the captain king pretended to be uncomfortable and stroked his forehead, and said weakly: "The lonely body has been getting worse recently, even if you have the heart to govern the country, you have no intention of listening to the government, as you Aiqing said, Songqi is indeed very young, and there are still many places to learn in governing the country in the future, but looking at all dynasties, which king did not start with no experience?" I believe that you Aiqing has the ability to assist Songqi, just as he did to assist Gu! ”
The prince on the seat below looked at each other, even if the dissatisfaction in his heart rose to the extreme, he was still worried about the power of the Imperial City Janissaries, and did not dare to act rashly.
