Chapter 425: Another Prince?
Shen Changge looked at Shen De dumbfounded, unable to digest his words for a while, and all kinds of emotions were spreading in his heart.
She has always wondered when the emperor knew that she was a woman, and why he didn't cure her guilt after knowing it, but took the initiative to defend her and keep her crown prince.
It turned out that it was all about Uncle Huang.
And without her knowing, the imperial uncle actually did so much for her, and even threatened the emperor like this.
"Father." Shen Changge's voice was hoarse, and he opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
"You don't have to say much." Shen De waved his hand and said, "I also thought about it later, there is nothing wrong with letting you be the prince, at least, this country is still my Shen family's country." ”
Seeing Shen Changge's reaction in his eyes, Shen De sighed and said, "Okay, I've finished what I need to say, you can go back first." ”
"Yes, the retainers are retired."
Shen Changge didn't know how she left Zhaoyang Palace, it was sunny outside, but she felt that the sunshine was so dazzling that she couldn't open her eyes.
The whole body is weak and tight, and the indescribable complex emotions are spreading in my heart.
What's the use of telling her about it now?
She didn't even have a chance to say thank you to him personally.
……
The sudden death of the famous regent of the Eastern Wu Kingdom soon became known to everyone, even the Northern Jin Dynasty and South Vietnam.
This news is a great good thing for South Vietnam, which has a deep contradiction with Soochow and has always been eyeing Soochow.
At the beginning, Nangong Yao died in the Dongwu Palace, which made Nanyue very dissatisfied with Dongwu, but it was also because he was afraid of Shen Yiqing's existence, so he did not take action for a long time.
Now that Shen Yiqing is gone, Nanyue will naturally not give up this great opportunity.
However, in a short period of time, the South Yue Kingdom will not attack the Eastern Wu Kingdom, but the Eastern Wu Kingdom must be fully prepared.
Therefore, recently, the atmosphere of the morning dynasty is very tense, and the emperor is also having a headache to guard against the South Yue Kingdom.
However, some people's minds are not above the South Vietnamese Kingdom, but are used elsewhere.
On this morning, Shen Changge came to the main hall as always.
In the past, she rarely participated in the early dynasties, but since she knew that her position as the crown prince was kept by Shen Yiqing, she decided that she wanted to sit firmly on her crown prince and be her crown prince, and she must not let Yiqing's efforts be in vain.
Therefore, she has participated in the early dynasty these days, although she does not know much about the affairs of the court, but she is studying very hard.
In the early days of this day, after discussing the routine business, the emperor was ready to announce his retirement from the court.
And at this moment, Prime Minister Xu Wei suddenly stood up: "Your Majesty, Weichen has something to do." ”
"What's the matter with the Prime Minister?"
Xu Wei walked out of his position, came to the center of the hall, knelt down as soon as he lifted the hem of his official uniform, and looked at Shen De with a serious and firm expression.
"Your Majesty, what Weichen wants to say is related to the crown prince."
His words made everyone present stunned, and they all looked at Xu Wei.
Shen Changge narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced at Xu Wei, who was kneeling upright, and secretly guessed in his heart what he wanted to say.
For this prime minister Xu Wei, she has almost no intersection with him, except for when she first crossed over, she had some conflicts with his son Xu Ye.
But after that, Xu Ye was scared by her, every time she saw her, she took a detour, she almost forgot about Xu Ye, so she didn't know much about this Xu Wei.
I only know that this Xu Wei is Concubine Hui's brother and Shen Qingyang and Shen Huanting's uncle.
Because of this relationship, she knew that this Xu Wei must not be on her side.
Therefore, at this time, Xu Wei wanted to say something related to her, and she suddenly guessed in her heart that Xu Wei was trying to do something.
I only heard Xu Wei say: "Your Majesty, since ancient times, the world has been ruled by men, and there has never been a precedent for a woman to be a prince or even inherit the throne, so Weichen feels that another prince should be established." ”
Shen Changge raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and he was really going to stumble on her.
How?
Does this mean that she can deal with her without the backer of Uncle Huang?
It's ridiculous.
"What does the prime minister mean by this? What's wrong with Hongu being a woman? Should women be inferior, should they be ruled by your men? Shen Changge squinted at him and snorted coldly, "If you want to abolish the palace, you can also set up another prince, but please ask the prime minister to say even one, the crime committed by the palace is enough to abolish the palace." ”
The words made Xu Wei speechless for a while.
Enough to abolish the sins of the crown prince?
If so, why did he have to wait until now to propose another crown prince?
finally waited for the prince to be a woman, thinking that the prince could finally be abolished, but who knows, he was suppressed by the emperor.
In addition, there is a regent to support the prince, and the prince can't help it.
But now, the regent is gone, and there is no one to support the prince anymore, and if there is finally a chance to drag the prince down from that position, he will naturally not give up easily.
Not to mention that a woman shouldn't be the prince in the first place, just because the prince murdered Qingyang and Huanting, he can't let the prince continue to be stable!
Thinking like this, he secretly glanced at Shen Tianhua, and after coming into contact with the other party's gaze, he turned to look at Shen Changge resolutely.
"You are a woman, so you are destined not to be a prince. Isn't that reason enough? ”
Shen Changge sneered when he heard this: "Then the palace would like to ask the prime minister, in the laws of our Eastern Wu Kingdom, which article clearly stipulates that a woman cannot be a prince?" Are there any rules? ”
Xu Wei was choked again, and said with a stiff neck: "Although the law does not stipulate it, there has never been such a precedent since ancient times, which means that women cannot enter politics!" ”
"Joke!" Shen Changge said, "Since the law does not stipulate it, then this palace can naturally be the crown prince." There was no precedent before, it was before, and from now on, there are such examples! Hongu is the first example! ”
As she spoke, she looked at Xu Wei with a resolute and serious gaze, and the irrefutable majesty revealed by her body actually made Xu Wei speechless and difficult to refute for a while.
Shen Changge glanced at him and said slowly: "Speaking of which, this palace remembers that my father and emperor had decreed that no one should be allowed to make a fuss about the fact that this palace is a woman, but I don't know how the prime minister forgot what his father said?" ”
As soon as she finished saying this, Shen De, whose face was already not good-looking, became even more gloomy and ugly at this time.
When Xu Wei stood up and proposed to set up another prince, Shen De's face changed.
Since he had taken the initiative to defend the crown prince, he naturally would not change his decision at will, otherwise wouldn't it seem that he, the emperor, was too unprestigious?
And at the beginning, he did explicitly say that no one was allowed to mention this matter again, but he didn't expect the prime minister to propose another prince in public today on the grounds that the prince was a woman.
How? What he said was taken as a deaf ear?
