Chapter 116: Contention
Looking at the two sons in front of him, Emperor Mian sighed slightly in his heart, he was old, and his sons had grown up, and this battle began again.
The fourth son is his eldest son, and it is natural to make him the crown prince, not to mention that his talent and heart are also superior.
But when it comes to talent, among his many sons, the best qualification is actually his second son-in-law, the nineteenth prince King Jin. Even if he was a prince who was cultivated as a prince since he was a child, there was no rival to this young son in terms of culture and martial arts. If it weren't for the fact that the deposition of the prince was a matter of great importance, it would cause a shock in the court, and he wanted to replace the prince with him.
His nineteenth prince was less than a year older than the eldest son of the crown prince, and by the time he showed his glory, the prince's position in the eyes of the court was already solid. He, as a father, will naturally not go to the waves of his life, the crown prince and the king of Jin are not only his only two sons-in-law, but also very good princes, and he doesn't want to lose any of them.
Over the years, there are not a few powerful ministers who want to follow and support their young sons, and he also sees the meaning of marrying with great effort, but his little nineteen left the frontier as soon as he became an adult in order to avoid suspicion, and he was still a brother and friend of the two brothers.
If he can let his elected prince succeed to the throne and let his powerful young son protect the country, it is really a satisfactory situation.
Xiao Nineteen is not fighting for the situation now, and when the prince ascends the throne in the future, he will naturally be the minister of the new monarch, and he will not make trouble again. The young son has military power in his hands and his prestige is growing, and the prince will not be able to make it difficult for him in the future.
But looking at today's situation, he still underestimated the ruthlessness of the prince. Born in the emperor's family, he is ruthless, and it is difficult to determine whether it is good or bad. If his sons were to compete for his throne, he would not intervene as long as he did not kill him. The struggle for the throne has not been spared in previous dynasties, and it will not stop in the future.
Now that he is on the throne and is blessed by the national teacher, it is only the prince of the Yu family who is vying for the throne. When the national teacher gives up Daxun, the person who sits on this throne will face an even more brutal battle. insisted on appointing some benevolent successors to the throne, and his Yu clan would eventually change hands. Therefore, he never rejected such a battle in his heart, just as the beast herd uses force duels to elect the strongest leader to ensure that the clan can grow stronger, his family and country also need heirs with outstanding cultural and martial arts.
Now it seems that the prince is calm and generous, but when a crisis arises, he can also sacrifice extraordinary means; Xiao Nineteen was a little softer in his treatment of his siblings, but he used soldiers like a god on the border of the western frontier, and the western tribes fled from him; In the past few years, Longyou Dao has also become more and more prosperous under his rule, and the population has increased significantly. All of this is enough to show that he is a more ideal successor.
If he can't get the elixir from the national teacher on this birthday birthday, then he will be happy to see the contest between their brothers.
It's just that the Qian family is already too rampant, and the outrageous piles of the past have been repeatedly sheltered and resolved by the queen and the prince, and they have lost their duty as courtiers. Those who are too arrogant should remove their minions and frustrate their spirits.
Xiao Nineteen's play, in the final analysis, is also good for the prince, as the master of the people, the skill of the subordinates needs to be used with grace and power, so that the subordinates dare not have two hearts, and always be loyal to the most important errand.
Before the crown prince succeeded to the throne, the western army brought out by the nineteenth hand was handed over to the prince, in order to protect the peace of the family and the country, not to reduce the power of the nineteenth. The new monarch succeeded to the throne and was good at leading troops, and the nineteenth should take over more soldiers and horses, and concentrate more troops in the hands of the Yu family, which would be more conducive to stabilizing the new policy.
This time, the Qian family made a move against Xiao Nineteen, whether it was unauthorized or obedient, it was too bold and reckless. They can now speculate in vain that they will dare to rebel against the prince in the future, and what is the use of the courtiers who cannot be faithful to the lord.
"It's rare for you to go back to the capital, now that your body is fine, go and visit your queen mother, don't be in a hurry to leave, and your father will come over to dine with you in a while." Emperor Mian was afraid that he would care about the little girl at home, so he would only show up in Kunning Palace after a while, and he specially told him carefully.
"The child is waiting for his father at the queen mother's place." Yu Chengxi is the youngest son of Emperor Mian, and most of the parents prefer their young sons, and he does not have the trembling mind to please his father to the throne, so he gets along with Emperor Mian more casually.
As Emperor Mian got older, he cared more about the joy of family, and he was even more happy with this younger son, who was younger than many grandchildren. The two of them are rare in the royal family of Xun Kingdom, and they have a sincere father-son relationship.
Although the prince envied the nineteenth brother, he could not overcome the fear in his heart, and the queen mother, maternal grandfather, the princess, and the prince taught him to observe the words and feelings of his father's side every day, and he gradually learned to laugh with his father at the right time, and talk to his father at the right time......
Now, the relationship between him and his father is first the difference between the monarch and the minister, and then the relationship between father and son. The father-son nature has been consumed.
For the nineteenth brother to win his father's attention without fighting or grabbing, and he didn't need to put much effort into being valued by his father, which made him very desperate. So even if the nineteenth brother has been reining in, he will never take this younger brother lightly. Because no one knows when he will want to fight for the world again.
When the fourth uncle said that only if he couldn't fight could he be reassured, although he didn't clearly show anything, he agreed in his heart. When the whereabouts of the nineteenth brother came from Surabaya, what repeatedly sounded in his heart was the words of the fourth uncle.
The nineteenth brother was seriously injured and fell into a coma, and there were only a few dozen people around him, and the opportunity was really rare. It's just that before he could make up his mind, the flying pigeon in his heart said that he didn't know the whereabouts of the King of Jin, and even the King of Yuchuan County, who had always been close to the King of Jin, couldn't inquire about anything.
He was relieved when he received the news, but now that he found out that he had actually been standing on the opposite side of the Nineteenth Brother, that breath of relief was too early.
accompanied his parents to lunch, and after his father rested, Yu Chengxi went out of the palace. Now that he has passed the age of the weak crown, every time the queen mother sees him, she will talk to him to let him start a family as soon as possible. The fourth brother will inherit his father's throne, and his mother does not ask him to have much success. Being able to marry a few beautiful wives and concubines and live a good life guarding the prince's lordship is her greatest expectation for this son.
Yu Chengxi couldn't say too much to his mother, he had no intention of fighting for the world with the fourth brother, but he didn't want to be arranged to live his life. He has to protect the people he likes in his life and live according to his own heart.
When he arrived outside the palace, the guards sent had already brought a dozen or so thirteen or fourteen-year-old girls, and two neat-looking daughters-in-law waiting outside the palace gate.
"The master has already brought it."
He asked the guards to choose two safe girls who had practiced martial arts since childhood for Yiyi, and brought them back to the Lin family in the future to reassure him, and the rest would be responsible for her living in the palace.
When they returned to the palace, it was already Shen Shi, and he couldn't wait to get to the horse stone outside the mansion gate, so he took the lead in dismounting.
As soon as he entered the mansion, the housekeeper stepped forward to report, and the Changting Marquis Mansion sent a box of silver tickets before noon and left. The jewelry head of Yuchang Silver has also been sent, and Zhiyun Pavilion has sent the most fashionable clothes this spring, and now these two are still waiting in the front hall.
"Didn't you ask the girl to come and check it out?"
"The girl seems to be saying that she wants to reward everyone today, and she will be busy in the stove room as soon as she returns home, and the little one will be invited, and it seems that she has not been free so far."
"Really give me Zhang Luo dinner, take me to see it."
The housekeeper led the way to the big stove first, Su Peng led people to guard outside, and several people were swallowing saliva in front of a few wine jars on the table in the courtyard. Yu Chengxi really didn't think the stove room was such an interesting place before.
