Chapter 605 Enthronement
The three princes naturally ascended the throne as emperors, but some ill-intentioned people in the court began to make trouble in the name of the deceased emperor.
Those ministers spread rumors that in order to ascend the throne, the three princes did not hesitate to be ruthless to the emperor and killed the emperor, so that he was able to ascend to the throne.
When the people heard the rumors, they began to spread them brainlessly, whether it was true or not, and some people made up many versions, and the reputation of the three princes plummeted all of a sudden, and some people even rebelled for this, wanting to overthrow the three princes, and the throne of the three princes suddenly became precarious.
The third prince knew that these people could not be suppressed by force, but if he had a better way, he could only send someone to ask Song Chunian for help.
As soon as Song Chunian heard about this, he directly sent people to the camp of the rebel army and took everyone back to the palace dungeon to be imprisoned.
The next day, the three princes discussed state affairs with the ministers as usual, when a minister came out: "Your Majesty, the minister heard that you imprisoned the rebel army in the dungeon of the palace yesterday, is this considered a little inappropriate......
The third prince turned his eyes to look at the minister who spoke, these people really couldn't bear to take the bait, and his hand was on the jade seal: "I don't understand what Aiqing said, they rebelled, shouldn't I arrest them?" ”
The ministers looked at each other, what the three princes said was not bad, such a rebel should indeed be arrested, but the reason why they rebelled was because of the rumors of the three princes.
As soon as this person is caught, the people's complaints will be even greater.
The third prince waved his hand: "Bring those people up." ”
The guards soon brought the rebels up, and the ministers found that they had no wounds on their bodies, but were refreshed and seemed to be well-rested.
At this time, Song Chunian stood up: "My lord, these people came to negotiate peace with the court yesterday, and there was no detention as you said, who did you listen to?" ”
His words meant a long time, and the minister instantly broke out in a cold sweat, seeing that those rebels did not refute it, he was even more afraid, what happened, he did not expect it at all.
Song Chunian hooked his lips and smiled sarcastically, and took out a testament in his hand, which was the edict of succession written by the emperor before his death, which clearly stated that after the emperor's death, the three princes would inherit his throne.
The minister was so frightened that he sat on the ground, but the three princes did not have this will when they ascended the throne, so they dared to slander the three princes so unscrupulously, but they didn't expect that this was just a trick by Song Chunian and the three princes.
The third prince sneered: "Aiqing, don't be a fool, I don't care about some things because I'm afraid of you, I just want to leave you a chance, I don't want to see such things in the future, let's drag it out." ”
The guard received the order and immediately dragged the minister down, and the minister didn't want to believe that he had been defeated because of a small will, but no matter how much he didn't believe it, he still lost completely.
The rebels also knelt down at this time: "The grass people are guilty, please ask the emperor to give the grass people a death, but ask the emperor to spare the grass people's families." ”
The rebel army also regretted not being at the beginning, and the three princes rightfully ascended the throne, but they thought that he had killed the emperor to ascend the throne, and they also wiped out the merits of the previous three princes, and it was not a pity for them to die.
The third prince got up and personally helped up the rebel army: "It's okay, you are also thinking about this country, I will not kill you, but will reward you, since you have such ability, it is better to serve the country in my army, what do you think?" ”
"The grass people are gone, thank you!" A group of rebels wept silently.
As early as yesterday, Song Chunian showed them the emperor's will, they thought that their lives would be short, but they didn't expect that the three princes could spare their lives so that they could serve the country, how could they not be grateful to the three princes.
The three princes laughed, the early dynasty ended like this, but some people were happy and some were worried, the three princes were naturally happy to relieve the crisis in front of them, but those who participated in the framing of the three princes were not so happy, and they were sad one by one.
And when the proclamation was posted all over the country, the people knew that they had wrongly blamed the three princes, and they all regretted it, the three princes had been kind to them before, and they were still suspicious of others, which really shouldn't be.
What surprised the people even more was that those rebels not only did not die, but also found a decent position in the palace, and even their families followed suit.
The reputation of the three princes suddenly rose again, how much the people hated the three princes before, and how much they love him now, now as long as they go to the street, they can hear the voices of the people praising the three princes, everyone says that he is a good monarch, tolerant a lot, and even those who have offended him can ignore the past suspicions and accept them as subordinates, and now many people are proud to have such a monarch, and the reputation of the three princes has suddenly become unprecedentedly good.
Song Chunian was left alone by the three princes, and the two sat down and talked about their hearts in the bedroom of the three princes, that is, the former emperor.
"Thank you so much Lord Song for your help this time, otherwise I really don't know what to do." The third prince looked happy.
But Song Chunian looked at the familiar dormitory in front of him and was slightly stunned, the scene was still the same as before, but the old man was long gone.
Seeing that he didn't speak, the third prince knew that he was looking at things and thinking about people, and couldn't help but sigh: "I also miss my father very much, my father is a good monarch, and he has always been my role model, and now my father is gone, but I will work hard to make the dynasty left by my father more prosperous." ”
Song Chunian nodded, indeed, the old man is no longer there, and he can't say anything, but I hope that the world after death is free.
He came back to his senses: "What did the emperor say just now, the minister was distracted and didn't hear it." ”
He should still focus on state affairs now and protect the country thoroughly, so that he can live up to the emperor's trust.
The third prince put a cup of hot tea in front of Song Chunian: "I said, this time it is really thanks to the help of Lord Song that I can become the emperor so smoothly, and I want to thank Lord Song for being able to do so." ”
Song Chunian waved his hand: "Your Majesty is serious, the minister is entrusted by the emperor, and this is also the country of the minister, how can the minister see it fall like this." ”
As a courtier, he still can't stand the emperor's thanks, and he must abide by the courtesy of the monarch and ministers.
"Hey! Lord Song said this, and I was willing to make friends with the Yue Wangfu forever to show my determination. The third prince waved his palm and instantly gave a heavy promise.
Song Chunian immediately knelt down and thanked him: "The ministers of the Yue Wangfu thanked the emperor." ”
The third prince helped people up, this is a person who was quite important when his father was alive, he was better to Song Chunian, than to make enemies.
