Chapter 1059: Normal Procedure
Abdication is such a sensitive question, Rao is a close minister of the emperor, and it is not easy to express his opinions at will.
He said dryly: "Your Majesty is in the prime of spring and autumn, and he is a rare virtuous monarch, it is the time to show his ambitions......"
This kind of thing is really not An Guogong's strong point, and after just a few words, it is unsustainable.
It's no wonder that An Guogong can't say anything against his will, in the past year or two, the emperor's mind is not on court affairs at all, and even the early dynasty is to listen to it from time to time, which can be regarded as occupying the emperor's position in vain.
The emperor knew this, but he was still dissatisfied with An Guogong's attitude: this old slippery head, what he said, was obviously perfunctory to him, and he was so perfunctory.
The emperor said unhappily: "What does Ye Aiqing mean, is King Yu not wise enough?" How dare you slander my son! ”
An Guogong's feeling at this time is that he is more wronged than Dou E. Obviously, he has already played at a super level, and he can be singled out by the emperor.
"Your Majesty, you have misunderstood. Weichen means that there is no wisdom in ancient or modern times. Of course, His Royal Highness is also wise, but he is a little worse than the emperor. ”
After An Guogong finished speaking, he looked at the emperor with a look on his face, all dead pigs were not afraid of boiling water. That's all I want, do whatever you want.
This is already the super level of his super level, and it is absolutely impossible for him to keep saying more innovative and beautiful words.
Although An Guogong's sycophants were not very outstanding, the emperor was also satisfied. I was satisfied, but I couldn't show it on my face. immediately snorted heavily, reluctantly accepting An Guogong's words.
The emperor has a correct position in his heart, he does not dare to say that he is the first emperor of the ages, but he is also satisfied with the governance of the past ten years.
During the Qianqing period of his reign, the first railroad carriage appeared. Since then, various construction and engineering tools have appeared. Twelve transportation tracks were built between the major transportation towns of the Great Xia Dynasty, and the transportation of grain, grass and materials for the imperial court was extremely fast and convenient.
In the past few years after the introduction of the patent law, following the steam engine and blast smelting furnace, the mechanical spinning machine was successfully developed in the Qijia Machinery Workshop.
Happily, in September of the same year, a large textile family in the south applied for a patent for a new type of loom that was more than three times more efficient than the old loom. With the spinning volume of the spinning machine, the textile output of the Celestial Empire has greatly increased, and at the same time, it has led to the cultivation of cotton and linen.
Just the year before last, the first steamship in Jinghai was launched, and the large warship wrapped in iron sheet caused an immediate sensation as soon as it sailed on the sea. With such a huge, sturdy, and flying warship, no matter what kind of pirate it is, there is no way to escape.
There is also a steam engine-driven thresher, which has applied for a patent, and the threshing is efficient and clean.
In the past ten years, the development of all walks of life in the Celestial Empire has shown an unstoppable momentum.
In the past two years, low-quality steel and cloth from the imperial court have participated in foreign trade and exchanged for a large number of scarce materials from abroad.
All of the above shows that the industrialization of the Celestial Empire has had a good start and its development is becoming more and more stable.
The Emperor was nearly sixty years old, and he felt that he could retire and live the life he wanted.
After being silent for a while, the emperor said abruptly: "Your granddaughter is indeed a visionary. The coal business he recommended to me was indeed very profitable. I had heard that the mines in Jinju were very large and magnificent, and I wanted to see what the scale of my business was. ”
An Guogong didn't respond, but measured the meaning of the emperor's words in his heart. Hearing this, the emperor really has the idea of abdicating.
…………
Jinrong listened to the emperor mention the matter after the father and son returned to the imperial study the next day.
He first listened to the emperor complain about the complexity of all things, and then said in an inquiring tone: Should he abdicate?
Jinrong's initial reaction was the same as An Guogong's, and his jaw almost dropped.
Immediately, Jinrong, who understood what the emperor meant, looked tangled. Inherit the throne? Although he is now presiding over the early dynasty, most of the recitals are being reviewed. But he has not yet ascended the throne after all, and he is not an emperor.
Ascending the throne as emperor is the ultimate goal of every ambitious prince. Obviously, what the Emperor is talking about now is the attribution of this ultimate goal.
Jinrong's facial expression was extremely complicated, and he struggled for a while before he said: "My father is not very restrained now, he is so dignified, why should he abdicate?" Between the tones, no matter how you listen to it, you feel that there is a lack of sincerity.
The emperor looked at the expression on Jinrong's face that wanted to refuse and welcome, and almost kicked him out: "Can't you kid pretend to be a little bit like that?" You take a mirror and look at the expression on your face, this is because I wish I would hand over the throne to you right away, right?! ”
Jin Rong was stunned: "Huh? No way? Is it so obvious? ”
The emperor was really annoyed at this time, picked up a booklet on the case, and smashed it towards Jinrong, "You bastard!" That's what I really thought. ”
Jin Rong hurriedly reached out and borrowed the booklet, his face full of grievances, "Can this be blamed on Erchen?" Which of us, the aspiring princes, doesn't want to ascend to that supreme position? With your father's wisdom and martial arts, even if your sons pretend to be similar, can you really be deceived by your sons? ”
The emperor glared at Jinrong, and he couldn't refute it for a while. How can this big truth be so sincere and true? It's also mixed with superb sycophancy.
The emperor suddenly discovered that the kung fu of the people around him had greatly improved recently.
"Get out! Do a good job, let me think again. ”
…………
When the emperor said abdication, it seemed to be just a chaotic idea casually. But as soon as the words came out, the emperor's heart began to burn.
Jiang Yifan almost knew from An Guogong that the emperor had such an idea, so he was approached by the Ministry of Rites Shangshu to discuss the etiquette arrangements for the new emperor to succeed to the throne and respect the current saint as the emperor.
Jiang Yifan is now serving as a waiter in the Ministry of Rites. There is no other reason, just because the Qi family machinery workshop has a share of the Jiang family, and the machinery workshop is second to none in the industrial field of the entire Great Xia Dynasty.
Machinery workshops and the Ministry of Industry, will be supervised often have technical exchanges and money exchanges. In order to avoid suspicion, he was transferred to the Ministry of Rites as a waiter, which was considered to be another level.
Sun Tingyue, who was the secretary of the Ministry of Rites at the time, was the father of Sun Shumin, the concubine of King Yu, and was half of Jinrong's father-in-law.
Sun Shangshu was in a very good mood, and enthusiastically let Jiang Yifan sit down at the guest seat and personally poured him tea. When explaining Jiang Yifan's affairs, the folds on his face were going to pile up into a flower.
Jiang Yifan was stunned: "Isn't it necessary to discuss such a big matter in the court?" ”
The normal procedure for such a matter should be brought to the court for discussion. Headed by Jinrong, the successor to the throne, including all the ministers of the court, they all had to be heartbroken and reluctant to advise the emperor.
It is necessary to express to the emperor with extremely sincere feelings, without the guidance of the emperor, everyone will not be able to do things, and they will live without a backbone.
The emperor insisted that he would follow Yao Shun's example and give more opportunities to young people. Of course, this young man was not an outsider, but his son.
You go back and forth for three or five months, and then you enter the substantive handover stage.
However, what is the situation of Emperor Qianqing, it is too sudden, right? I want to talk about "Women's Beauty" with more like-minded people, pay attention to "excellent reading literature" on WeChat, talk about life, and find confidants~
