There are only a few people who really stand in Sister Yan's position, most of them are speculating about the attitude of the emperor, and even the Ministry of Rites Shangshu is also carefully looking at Sister Yandao's face.

When Xie Yun saw this scene, he sighed slightly in his heart, but it was good, it showed that they had begun to fear Sister Yan from the bottom of their hearts, and Sister Yan's status would not be shaken.

Now that there is a prince, the emperor naturally gives up the throne and lets the prince preside over the court.

But Sister Yan didn't say a word from beginning to end, everyone felt that she was very dissatisfied, and many thoughts popped up in their hearts one by one.

Fortunately, the crown prince is capable, and not only did he not make mistakes in presiding over the government, but his performance was also remarkable.

After the morning was dispersed, everyone walked out in twos and threes, discussing something in a whisper, Sister Yan didn't walk with anyone, only her, striding out.

The crown prince threw down the emperor's attendants who passed the message, and hurried two steps, "The emperor stays." ”

"The prince should go and talk back to His Majesty, there is something in this seat, so I will go back to the house first. ”

After saying that, he didn't give him a chance to talk, turned around and left.

This scene has been seen by many people, and it is expected that rumors will soon spread that the emperor is dissatisfied with the prince.

"His Royal Highness King Ye. ”

King Ye turned around and said in surprise, "The emperor is looking for me?"

"Yes, I have something to ask Your Highness, so let's talk as we go. ”

The prince watched the two leave side by side at the gate of the main hall, and there was something wrong in his heart.

Seeing this, the attendant didn't dare to disturb, and when the two emperors and masters were far away, they said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, Your Majesty is waiting for Your Highness." ”

"Got it, let's go. ”

And Sister Yan naturally didn't pay attention to the speculation of others, but just said to King Ye, "Now that the dust has settled on the battle for the throne, what are His Royal Highness's plans, whether to go to the fiefdom like King Ling, or stay in the capital." ”

King Ye didn't answer and asked, "How does the emperor know that the dust has settled, as long as the father wants to, the position of the crown prince can change hands at any time." ”

"Because the state of Chu can no longer be tossed, as long as the crown prince is not seriously wrong, his position cannot be shaken. ”

"Sure enough, the emperor is helping the prince, the emperor doesn't need to look at me, when the king was kicked out, he was already an outsider, the king stood on the outside, and he saw it naturally clearly, a prince who can fight against the emperor, at this time, can be more cohesive, and the spirit of the emperor to consider the overall situation is beyond doubt. ”

Sister Yan said in her heart, King Ye is indeed a smart person, if it weren't for some indecisiveness, the position of the crown prince would not be in his pocket.

"No matter who of the two highnesses is the crown prince, we will do our best to assist, our duty is to stabilize the country and the people, not to play with power. ”

"Isn't it okay to be misunderstood or abused?"

Sister Yan smiled slightly, "Those people, except for suspicion and abuse, they can't do anything, just let them vent." ”

"Even the emperor is willing to be his stepping stone, this king, as the prince of Great Chu, naturally has to know the general situation, whether to go or stay, this king listens to the orders of the prince, as long as the Great Chu needs, this king is duty-bound. ”

This means that as long as the prince is willing to trust, he will stay and assist him.

Sister Yan said in her heart, then stay and join the prosperous world.

"The crown prince must be glad that His Highness thinks so. ”

"Hopefully. ”

The two went to the gate of the palace and separated, King Ye got into the carriage, opened the curtain and saw the man turn over on the horse, beat the horse and take off the clothes and fly.

It should have been a freshly dressed angry horse, but he shouldered the heavy responsibility of a country, and his slender body refused to bend a bit.

The attendant took the crown prince to meet the emperor.

The attendant entered the dormitory and said, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived." ”

After thinking about it, he said, "The emperor just sent His Royal Highness the Crown Prince with a word, but instead went to be very close to His Royal Highness King Ye. ”

The emperor showed a look of understanding, young man, he couldn't hold his breath in the end.

The crown prince came in, "The son has seen his father. ”

"I didn't tell you, but directly announced the canonization decree in the court, how do you feel today?"

"Except for a little suddenness, the other sons can handle it. ”

"What did the emperor say?"

"Today, the emperor didn't express his opinion, I think the emperor wants to give his sons a chance to perform, if an early dynasty can't deal with it, let alone convince the public. ”

"Does the prince really think so?"

"Erchen really thinks so, does the emperor have other considerations?"

"Presumably she was unhappy that someone had come to share her power. ”

The prince said, "This right is not the emperor's, how to divide the power, the emperor and the monarch, the prince's rights are counted, the father was not in good health, and there was no prince, so the emperor let the emperor prime minister govern, and now the father trusts the emperor and let the sons become the princes, then they should naturally hand over that part of the rights, in the final analysis, the emperor's duty is the responsibility of supervision and scheduling, as long as the sons are not wrong, she can't do anything." ”

"Okay, it's good if you think about it, it's just that you are now on the throne of the crown prince, they have already established their authority, and their status in the hearts of the courtiers and the people is unshakable. You have to pay attention. ”

It means that you are not sure not to mess with her easily.

"Erchen understands that Erchen will not disappoint his father. ”

The emperor only felt that the more he looked at this prince, the more pleasing he became, and it seemed that he had made a good choice, otherwise with King Ye's temperament, where would he dare to confront the emperor.

"King Ye is your eldest brother, this time I made you the crown prince, he must be uncomfortable, you have to care more, he has nothing wrong, and things are reassuring, if you can, I hope that your brothers will work together to fight the enemy. ”

I don't know if this is a foreign enemy or a political enemy.

Although Erchen felt sorry for the imperial brother, Erchen believed that he was more suitable to be the crown prince than the imperial brother. ”

The emperor said, "Since you are already the crown prince of Great Chu, I will not interfere too much in your decisions, I have come to you to give you some things in addition to asking you this." ”

Gonggong Xu hurriedly brought the tray on the table to the prince.

The prince picked up the maps and letters and flipped through them, "These are military deployment maps and specific records of troop and material transfers. ”

"That's right, these are the rearranged military distribution maps, only I and the two emperors know all the information, and now I'll leave it to you. ”

"Erchen will definitely take it to heart. ”

"There's something I want to tell you. ”

Seeing his serious expression, the prince couldn't help frowning.

"The ideal of my Li family, which has been passed down from generation to generation, is to go south and no longer be constrained by others, and on the side of the Xue Palace, since the ancestors of my Li family and Xie Xuan raised the status of the emperor three hundred years ago.

Successive emperors and scholars have been working hard for this goal, and the turmoil of a hundred years ago disrupted the plan, but the sisters and Yan said that they have now re-prepared, and believe that now is a good time to realize the plan, and hope that I will support this decision. ”

The crown prince was surprised in the end, it seems that his dream is not false, but the dream of the emperors and emperors of the past dynasties, and they have been preparing for this for hundreds of years, just to wait for an opportunity.

"The father said that they didn't just want to keep the Great Chu, but to go south to annex the Shang and Jin kingdoms, and get rid of their worries forever. ”

The Emperor nodded in affirmation.

The prince remembered the style of those two, and the real goal was to dominate the world.

Forcing himself to calm down, Zhengse said, "These are not things that can be decided in a while, you can't act impulsively with enthusiasm, Erchen will definitely communicate with the emperor, father, son-in-law still have one thing, I hope my father will support it." ”

"You say. ”

"The post of secretary of the criminal department is vacant, but the people of the criminal department can not be trusted for the time being, and the ministers think that they can transfer the Dali Temple to the criminal department for the criminal department of Shangshu, the criminal department and the Dali Temple have similar functions, and the Shu people are upright, one can suppress the remaining young people in the criminal department, and the other can ensure the normal work of the criminal department. ”

"Well, you think about it well, Shu Fu is worthy of this position, so who do you think Dali Siqing will be in charge. ”

"Lin Yuan, the young secretary of Dali Temple, was picked up by Lord Shu, and his temperament is somewhat similar to that of Lord Shu, but his mind is more delicate and meticulous, and there is quite something to cultivate, and in the past six months, the officials of the DPRK and China have changed a lot, and they also need fresh blood. ”

The emperor knew that this was also a means for the prince to cultivate his true henchmen, and it seemed that he also had a sense of urgency, and the emperor had indeed caused him a lot of pressure.

"Shu Fu's transfer, I'm right, but although Lin Yuan is capable, he is still too young, you still think carefully. ”

"The sons obey the order, and then there is the matter of rewarding the meritorious heroes, because the state affairs come first, and those meritorious heroes have not yet been rewarded for meritorious deeds, especially Jiang Yu, who has taken risks many times for the sake of national affairs and acted prudently, and the sons think that they can be reused. ”

"Well, meritorious heroes must be rewarded, you are the prince, you can do it, Jiang Yu is a reliable one, cultivate more. ”

"Father is wise. ”

After talking for a long time, these people are inseparable from Xie Ling, how can talented and capable people be by his side, it seems that the prince has won Xie Ling's loyalty in advance, and he can be regarded as a leader over others.

"As a prince, you have to take a long-term view, there are many excellent children in Beijing, you have to use your eyes to find that appointing meritocracy is also one of the necessary virtues of the prince, but you don't have to be too much, you have to grasp the degree yourself. ”

"Erchen knows. ”

"You said that if you disagree with the emperor, Xie Ling will firmly assist you, or favor the emperor. ”

"Erchen thinks that the emperor will not do anything that harms the Chu State, this is also what we have in common, if you have to choose, Xie Ling will stick to his choice, instead of compromising with the emperor. ”

"Oh?"

"Because the emperor is his friend, relative, and his rare opponent. ”

Yes, Xie Ling and Sister Yan, Tian Shen, what proud people they are, how can they allow others to want to let go, how can they allow themselves to give in.

"Go back and get ready. ”

"The retainer retired. ”

After the crown prince left, a decree to make Nan Guifei the imperial concubine and temporarily manage the harem instead of the queen was also sent to the harem.

"Go to the Emperor's Mansion. ”

The carriage had not gone far, and the prince said again, "Forget it, let's go home." ”

"Yes. ”

Back in the house, someone was drinking in his yard.

"He Shaoxia, why are you here? ”
