Chapter 620: Competing for the position of the prince
In fact, this is a threat in disguise, taking care of Gu Wanfang is one thing, and using Gu Wanfang as a bargaining chip is the other.
If Gu Changbai wanted Gu Wanfang to take his career, he had to promise that he couldn't come to the capital to find him before Gu Wanfang was admitted to the Jinshi.
It is impossible for him to support Gu Changbai's family, and if he can keep Gu Wanfang, it depends on his qualifications and temperament.
For people like Gu Changbai, Gu Chengyu was tolerant enough, and he threw people to Yingnan Mansion for a hundred years.
After Gu Chengyu sent Gu Changbai and them back to Nanfu, only a few days of pure life passed.
Ye Zhiqiu's incense shop has opened, and Gu Chengyu took a few colleagues he knew to his shop twice to hold the scene.
On this day, as usual, the Taihe Hall was holding a court meeting.
"Do you Aiqing still have this enlightenment?" After the emperor finished talking about the affairs of the court, he planned to withdraw from the court.
"The minister has something to play, please let the emperor Rong Bing!" Qian Licong, the deputy of the left capital, came out of the column from the left side and bowed to the emperor.
"Accurate!" The emperor glanced at Qian Licong, and then nodded.
"Your Majesty, Weichen thinks that the establishment of the crown prince has been delayed for a long time, and he also asks the emperor to establish the prince as soon as possible to stabilize the dynasty!"
The emperor's eyes were slightly closed, and during this period of time, these courtiers urged him to set up a prince every once in a while, and he was already annoyed.
It seems that the appointment of the crown prince should not be delayed any longer, and the ministers of the DPRK and China have long been very dissatisfied, and the prince still has to be established.
"The minister seconded the proposal! The East Palace has always been ownerless, and it is unfavorable to Jiangshan Sheji. Weichen implored the emperor to appoint the crown prince as soon as possible, divide the government, and raise the army and supervise the country! ”
"The ministers seconded it!"
The eldest prince and the third prince who were standing at the forefront both hooked the corners of their mouths, it was time, they had waited long enough.
The second prince and the fourth prince are all old gods, but it is unknown what they feel in their hearts.
The emperor looked at the officials who knelt on the ground, and his heart was very angry.
It's not that he doesn't want to set up a prince, it's just that these four princes, who is it better for him to appoint?
The emperor has been vacillating between these princes, feeling that no one is qualified for the position of crown prince.
The emperor laughed angrily, "Then which prince do you think Aiqing is suitable to become the master of the East Palace?" ”
There was silence in the Taihe Palace, and seeing the emperor's suppressed anger, no one dared to be this bird.
"Qian Aiqing, since you brought this matter up first, what do you mean?"
Qian Licong's body shook when he heard this, his eyes swept over the princes in front of him, and he paused for a moment before he spoke.
"Weichen thinks that the second prince is from the Middle Palace, gentle and kind, easy and obedient, and should be the best candidate for the East Palace."
What Qian Licong said made the second prince frown, Lord Qian was too eager, and he couldn't wait to jump out like this, which inevitably made his father feel that he couldn't wait.
Although the ministers also mentioned the establishment of the crown prince at the court meeting before, they were all blocked by their father.
Now that he said this, he became a blatant covetousness for the throne, and his father was inevitably unhappy.
Besides, there will definitely be something big going on later, and proposing it first at this time will only make my father feel that he is too anxious, and he will not be able to get a result.
The emperor's old eyes flashed, "Oh? Dick? ”
"Please Emperor Rong Bing, Weichen also has something to say."
At this time, Huo Huaizhong, the left attendant of the Criminal Department, also came out of the line from the left side and bowed to the emperor.
"Huo Aiqing has objections to Qian Aiqing's statement?" The emperor glanced at the second prince and trembled at the second prince.
Is my father dissatisfied with him? The second prince secretly complained in his heart.
"Back to the emperor! Although the second prince is a concubine, his temperament is too gentle and not decisive enough, and Weichen thinks that it may be difficult to be qualified for the position of prince. ”
These words attracted angry eyes from the Second Princes, Huo Huaizhong was not afraid of tearing his face, he was originally the Third Princes, and this was a critical moment, and it was bound to exert force.
If you want to be a supreme minister in the future and enjoy wealth and honor, you have to pay some price, what is it to offend the second prince?
Anyway, he had already offended people before, and he Huo Huaizhong was not afraid.
The emperor sat up straight and looked at Huo Huaizhong, "Then according to Huo Aiqing's opinion, who can do it?" ”
"Back to the emperor, Weichen thought that the three princes could take on this great task! The third prince is smart and quick-witted, and he is the best choice. ”
As soon as these words came out, many ministers present scoffed.
The third prince is a little smart, but if he wants to become the crown prince, I'm afraid he is not qualified enough.
In the previous Wan Xue Nian, there were many shrewd and capable people in the court, and some officials had already guessed that it was the third prince who made a ruthless move.
This is my grandfather! Isn't that what happened?
The third prince was in a hurry to get rid of people, for fear that it would affect himself. How can such a style not be chilling?
Let's ask such a ruthless person, if he becomes a treasure afterwards, who can guarantee that he will not cross the river and tear down the bridge?
The Three Princes' Party that they originally followed is still supporting, and these people are all on the thief ship of the Three Princes, even if they want to come down, no prince can take them under their wings.
After all, everyone's confrontation in the open and secret has hurt the harmony, and if it is against the master, other princes will not dare to use it.
"The best choice? Lord Huo's words are inevitably biased! Bian Shengrong, the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites, sneered.
He came out of the column to salute the emperor, and then said: "Your Majesty! The eldest prince is the eldest son, and he is resolute, and the errands you give have always been dedicated. Before you were sick, you were sick every day, you can be described as loyal and filial, and you love the emperor's brother, cultivate benevolence and righteousness. Weichen thought that the crown prince was fully capable of the position of the prince. ”
Bian Shengrong's words made the corners of the mouths of all the officials present twitch, this one is really thick-skinned.
This blows so much that there is nothing in the sky and no earth, as if the prince has no shortcomings.
But everyone knows that the eldest prince is ruthless, although he is decisive in accidents and his ability is not small, but his temperament is not generous enough.
"What else does Aiqing have a suggestion? Feel free to speak up. ”
The emperor's expression seemed to be smiling, these people couldn't wait for a long time, and they were going to completely tear their faces today.
Anyway, it has already begun, and the emperor also wants to know which officials are secretly supported by these princes.
The parties of the three princes were competing, and these three people naturally couldn't be indifferent, and they were somewhat anxious.
Only the fourth prince remained silent, he snorted coldly in his heart, it was unlikely that he would ascend to the throne of the crown prince.
Even if the officials who supported him were as spitty as those of those people, his father would still not put himself on the list of candidates for the crown prince.
It's better to save some effort so as not to waste your tongue.
And it seems that the days are long, what is the position of the prince? That seat is his ultimate goal.
The fourth prince glanced at the dragon chair, and at the same time secretly made up his mind in his heart.
Before, he kept his head in obscurity and slowly laid out, which gave these brothers a chance to stand here and compete.
Isn't it because I'm soft-hearted and can't do it? In the future, he will not be soft-hearted again.
