Chapter 240: Trying to Overcome Public Opinion

What is an emperor?

The emperor was the supreme ruler of the Great Qin Empire, and he was the prominent representative of the central power, as well as the core of the government and society, enjoying the highest power and honor, and benefiting the world with the power in his hands. It can be said that if there is a problem with the emperor, who is the core of the country, the whole country will inevitably fall into chaos.

For example, in Hong Feng's memory before his rebirth, the son of revenge, Tie Yunfei, successfully sniped the Great Qin Emperor, which led to the country falling into chaos, and the princes continued to attack each other in order to fight for imperial power, so that the people of the Great Qin Empire were in dire straits, and the whole country fell into chaos.

It is enough to see how important the role of the emperor is!

As the saying goes, I'd rather die than hurt an emperor, which is probably what it means.

Therefore, the importance of the emperor is undoubted and cannot be shaken.

In the same way, if anyone wants to be able to stand up to save the emperor when the emperor is in danger, then his exploits can no longer be described simply in three or two sentences.

One of the most representative is the Dragon City Gang!

During the Hundred Years War, before the founding of the Great Qin Empire, the leader of the Longcheng Gang had saved the dying Emperor Taizu, and took this opportunity to rise to the top.

The hero of the North and the son of the mountain: Agoura, although he was not fortunate enough to be able to help Emperor Taizu like the Dragon City Gang, he saved the current lord of Great Qin, and was crowned Hua Qiankun, who was not under Emperor Taizu in wisdom and bravery, which is also a very important feat.

Therefore, with this merit, Hua Qiankun, the current lord of the Great Qin State, has said more than once that he is willing to reward the position of Agula Wuhou and become the fourteenth Wuhou of the Great Qin Empire, and future generations will enjoy this supreme glory and status.

At the same time, Hua Qiankun, the lord of the Great Qin State, did not hesitate to lower his status and marry Agoura as Jin Lan Anda, setting an example in turn, telling the world how benevolent and righteous he was.

But such glory and status have always been rejected by Agoura under various pretexts, except that he does not covet the position of Marquis, Agoura is even more disgusted with the power struggle. After all, becoming a Marquis of Wu is equivalent to entering the political core of the Great Qin Empire, and a small decision will cause huge changes at that time.

Therefore, Agoura refused to reward the Marquis of Wu for twenty years, but he firmly did not agree.

Recently, however, Agoura changed his mind.

Because Agoura is no longer a person, he has a good righteous son Hong Feng, maybe he can not care about the identity of this martial marquis, but he can't ignore his righteous son Hong Feng, and he wants to pave the way for his righteous son Hong Feng.

Therefore, Agoura entered the imperial palace, the political core of the Great Qin Empire, and had a long talk with Hua Qiankun, the lord of Great Qin, and told Hua Qiankun, the lord of Great Qin, all his thoughts and thoughts without reservation, and explained his true thoughts.

After listening to Agoura's words, Hua Qiankun showed a little hesitation.

Hua Qiankun's hesitation was not because he was unwilling to reward Agula Wuhou with the position, after all, Agula was enough to reward Wuhou in terms of military merits, qualifications, strength, and the fact that he had saved his life.

But why did Hua Qiankun hesitate?

The reason for Hua Qiankun's hesitation is very simple, that is, there is a variable in the reward, and that variable is: Hong Feng.

Since the beginning of the Great Qin Empire, Emperor Taizu appointed the position of thirteen martial marquis, and since then the Great Qin Empire has never given anyone the position of martial marquis.

Secondly, Wuhou is hereditary, Agoura has no children under his knees, and only Hong Feng is a righteous son, so Agoura's inheritance of the position of Wuhou will mean that the position of Wuhou will continue to Hong Feng's hands.

Hong Feng was just a commoner, and he got the inheritance of the position of Wuhou for no reason, and the government and the opposition, and the whole country, those veteran martial marquis will inevitably use this as an excuse to hinder the birth of the fourteenth Wuhou. …,

Not to mention anything else, Zhao Xuan, who has the hatred of losing his son with Hong Feng, will definitely not agree with this matter, and will definitely do his best to obstruct it.

But in the end, Hua Qiankun still agreed, because this is the hero of Dingbei and the son of the mountain: Agula made the first and only request after saving Hua Qiankun, and asked how Hua Qiankun could refuse.

"The next topic, my good answer, the hero of Dingbei and the son of the mountain: Agoura, recently finally agreed to me and was willing to accept the reward of the position of Marquis of Wu. Therefore, next, please discuss how to prepare for this Wuhou ceremony. ”

Quiet!

As Hua Qiankun's voice fell, the entire Yitian Hall was silent.

Not only did this news come too suddenly, but many people were shocked by this incident, after all, this is related to the tradition and precedent that has never been broken in the 200 years since the founding of the Great Qin Empire.

The fourteenth Wuhou is about to be born!

This was the first thought that came to everyone's mind after hearing this information, and then after everyone digested the news, it immediately caused a huge backlash because of this matter.

For example, after hearing the news, the expression on his whole face became very wonderful and weird on the spot, as if he had been constipated for more than ten days, and he was about to explode on the spot.

For example, the rest of the civil officials, although they were shocked by this matter, but after calming down, they immediately frowned and thought about it, weighing some of the key points in it, and figuring out the true thoughts of Emperor Hua Qiankun.

And the calmest in the audience, when a few days Wuhou Lanhai, after weighing and thinking, said loudly for the first time: "The minister has something to say!" ”

Tianwu Hou Lanhai's words attracted everyone's attention again, and everyone was temporarily quiet, silently looking at Tianwu Hou Lanhai, wanting to know what this Tianwu Hou Blue Sea had to say.

"Accurate!"

Hua Qiankun didn't seem to care about this, and responded lightly, then motioned to Tianwu Hou Lanhai to continue.

Tianwuhou Lanhai seemed to have already made a decision, and said in a flat tone: "Dingbei hero, son of the mountain: Agoura, the pillar of my Great Qin State, not to mention that he has made countless outstanding military exploits in the military, just take his life in the Dingbei Battle to save our emperor, this Wuhou position should be deserved." ”

As the head of the thirteen martial marquis families, Tianwu Hou Lanhai has no objections, and others naturally won't say anything.

Therefore, some civil officials immediately stood up and agreed with this matter.

And some more pedantic people, such as Si Wentu, the left prime minister of the left and right prime ministers, have to get to the bottom of it, and after the blue sea of Tianwu Hou, he said: "The minister also has something to say!" ”

"Accurate!"

Hua Qiankun replied without being salty, and did not seem to have the intention of stopping it.

Therefore, after getting the permission, Zuo Prime Minister Si Wentu asked seriously: "Weichen has something unclear, please see it clearly." Twenty years ago, the saint was ready to reward him with the position of Marquis of Wu, and after twenty years, why did Agula only agree to it now, is it child's play for him to be the position of Marquis of Wu? Want it? ”

As the saying goes, there is no rule and no circle, and the country cannot stand.

For civil officials such as Prime Minister Zuo Cheng Si Wentu, what is important is not who is the marquis of Wu, but more important is the number of courtesies. The emperor's appointment of the position of Marquis of Wu is a great honor in itself, and after refusing, it is a violation of etiquette, and now he actually agrees again, which is really unreasonable.

Therefore, Zuo Prime Minister Si Wentu stood on the opposite side and seemed to disagree with this matter.

Regarding this, Hua Qiankun, the lord of the Great Qin State, seemed to have an excuse for a long time, and said indifferently: "My answer, in order to save me, I am powerless for the position of this martial marquis." In recent days, the situation of my An An has improved, so I brought up the old matter, and after weighing it, I finally agreed. ”

Hua Qiankun's voice fell, and many people vaguely felt that Hua Qiankun seemed to have a very resolute attitude towards rewarding the position of Marquis of Agula Wu, as long as a smart person was at this time, he would not disobey Hua Qiankun's will. …,

As the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger, working against the emperor, even if he doesn't treat you at the time, he won't make you feel better when he turns back.

Therefore, Zuo Prime Minister Si Wentu thought for a moment, and then said in a whisper: "Weichen, understand! ”

Seeing that Prime Minister Zuo Si Wentu's opposition was suppressed, Hua Qiankun was ready to make a decision, but at this time, the mountains and seas waited for Zhao Xuan, and he couldn't help it anymore, and stood up and said: "The minister has something to say!" ”

Hua Qiankun had long expected that Zhao Xuan would speak out to stop him, and after frowning slightly, he replied: "Accurate! ”

Shanhaihou Zhao Xuan immediately stepped forward and said seriously: "The position of Wuhou is very important!" It not only involves Agoura alone, but also the hearts of all the people up and down the entire Great Qin Empire. After all, the position of Wuhou is hereditary, and Agula has no children under his knees, so who will inherit the position of Wuhou in the future? ”

It's a thing!

After all, the fourteenth Wuhou was finally born, but as a result, people didn't even have a child, isn't this a bit too child's play? Therefore, the rest of the martial marquis, who did not want the birth of the fourteenth martial marquis, immediately seconded the mountain and sea and insisted on opposing this matter.

In the puzzled expressions of the ministers of civil and military affairs, Hua Qiankun simply replied: "This matter, let's discuss it again!" ”

A renegotiation blocked everyone's words on the spot.

At the same time, after announcing the reconsideration, Hua Qiankun said with an indifferent expression: "The so-called grace of dripping water must be reciprocated by a spring." Don't I understand the truth that the common people understand? Agoura Yu Yu has the grace to save his life, and I am the lord of the Great Qin State, don't you even have a point to express it?

So you've all heard me clearly!

In the matter of rewarding the Marquis of Anda Wuhou, I am not asking you to discuss whether you should or can, but to let you discuss how to carry out this sealing hall.

Yu Wenzhuo, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, within three days, I will see the documents of the reward ceremony you have planned.

Left and right Prime Minister Si Wentu and Bai Shangwen, in the afternoon, I want to see the announcement to the world, about the sealing of Agoura as the Marquis of Wu, and from now on, to complete the announcement to the world, understand? ”

"Minister, Commander!"

The Ministry of Rites Shangshu Yu Wenzhuo, the left and right prime ministers Si Wentu, and Bai Shangwen immediately responded in unison, and did not give Shanhai Hou Zhao Xuan and the rest of the Wuhou a chance to distinguish.

At this point, Hua Qiankun tried his best to disagree with the public and finalized the matter of Agula rewarding the position of Marquis of Wu.

And on the second day, the proclamation document on rewarding Agoura as the position of Marquis of Wu was like a storm, rolling up the north and south of the Great Qin Empire.
