Although the wind and snow stopped, there was no sunny sunshine, and the imperial study was a little gloomy, and with the Son of Heaven speaking coldly after the short six words, the imperial study was silent for a while, only the crisp sound of dripping in the corner of the wall, which was very obvious.

"Do you have any objections?" After dozens of breaths, the Son of Heaven asked again.

Let's talk about the decision first, that is, to make the cadres arbitrary, so the next sentence is not to discuss, but to let the four important ministers express their attitude.

"Minister, obey the holy will." It was the King of Chu who took the lead in expressing his position, and after him, the other three echoed in unison, and a few people who had already prepared in their hearts would certainly not have any objections.

The Son of Heaven's face was slightly pale, and then he raised his arm: "Zhongqing is flat and sits." ”

If you want to abolish the reserve, of course, you have to set up a new reserve, without the support of the Weiguo Mansion and the Chu Palace, it is difficult for the new prince to stabilize the East Palace. The Son of Heaven knew that his time was running out, and it was too late to wait for the new forces to grow, so he must let the two governments express their attitude, let them understand the holy will, and unswervingly assist the prince.

"In the second year of my accession to the throne, that is, the East Palace, in the blink of an eye for ten years, I also had full expectations for the prince, invited the famous Confucian and virtuous ministers to assist the East Palace, allowed the prince to ask about politics, and focused on the throne of the Dalong Emperor as a virtuous successor, which is the foundation of national security and political harmony...... The abolished princess Zhen lost her virtue and caused disaster to the imperial heirs, so that the concubines of the East Palace were not pregnant, and the crime was revealed. The prince has repeatedly taught and refused, and he still secretly communicates with the abolished concubine, and even promises her to rule the harem in the future, ignoring the orders of the monarch's father, and is not virtuous and unfilial, which is a crime. ”

"There is also the reform of the official system to revive the imperial examination policy, with the intention of recruiting talents for the prosperity of the national government, and the prince actually instructed the Zhongshu to judge Kong Zhishang to buy Zhang Tai, an official of the Ministry of Rites, to give the pro-party Jinshi the meritorious name, and it is a crime to pervert the law and follow private interests."

"The prince has no talent and no virtue, and he cares about the law of etiquette and law, although he is not virtuous, he is overwhelmed by his heavy responsibilities, and he is disheartened."

"My father and ancestors had to create the foundation of Dalong despite all kinds of difficulties, and I really couldn't hand over the national affairs to the crown prince to inherit."

On the throne, the Son of Heaven glanced at the four ministers with solemn eyes: "Therefore, I am determined to abolish the elder and establish a virtuous man, but once this intention is issued, it will lead to controversy and political fighting. ”

It is not enough to show that the attitude is not enough, the Son of Heaven wants everyone to give advice.

Several people have already discussed in private, saying that in addition to obeying the order, they naturally also put forward the proposal of abolishing the reserve, and only after preparing everything can they convince the hundred officials, and in order to avoid the vacancy of the storage position, the prince and many forces are in dispute, and before the abolition of the reserve, it is necessary to choose a new reserve.

Every sentence is in harmony with the Sacred Heart.

Although the Son of Heaven has already made up his mind in his heart, he can't directly say that he has been biased, but agrees not to discuss it at the court meeting first, but secretly compare several princes, and then choose a "virtuous" before abolishing the prince.

"Wei Guogong and the Chu Wangfu are my cronies' ministers, this time it is abolished, I must rely on the help of the two governments, before the court meeting, all Aiqing remember not to publicize."

When the initial goal was achieved, the Son of Heaven was also relieved, and the monarch and ministers were united in order to ensure that the abolition could be carried out smoothly, and civil strife and bloody storms could be avoided as much as possible.

But if the obstacle is too strong, of course the Son of Heaven will not be merciful.

In the end, the Son of Heaven left Yu Feng alone to talk.

"Yuan Yang is a little silent today, at this time there are only my uncle and nephew, you have something to say."

This intimate gesture made Yu Feng not know how to speak for a while.

"Are you not in favor of waste storage?" The Son of Heaven asked again.

"The subordinates think that the Holy Lord's decision to abolish the reserve is really sacred." Yu Feng stood up and replied.

The Son of Heaven smiled lightly, simply left the throne of the imperial case, and took Yu Feng to a bed set up for rest in the partition screen, the Son of Heaven sat down on one side first, and motioned for Yu Feng to sit across the case from him: "At this time, I don't think you are a courtier, only when you are a nephew who has always loved you, and Yuanyang should not be regarded as an emperor, count it ...... It's been more than ten years, and you no longer call me cousin, and today our uncle and nephew don't need to abide by the courtesy of the monarch and ministers, which is also a holy order. ”

At this point, Yu Feng could not refuse, so he had to bow down and call him "uncle" with a smile.

The words he had prepared earlier had also come to be honest with the Son of Heaven, so even if he had to take the risk of speculating on the holy will, he had to fight for a way back.

"As my uncle said, the prince is weak and inactive, if he ascends the throne in the future, it is very easy to be swayed by the believers and not conducive to the country's plans, the uncle does not blame the nephew for being bold and vain, the uncle's official reform is to cultivate new forces for the emperor in the future, suppress the old aristocracy to seize power and form a party, which is also beneficial to the national government and people's livelihood, and lay the foundation for the creation of the rule of the Qingming Dynasty, but the revival of the imperial examination is only the first step, and it is by no means fundamental."

These words made the Son of Heaven frown, but his eyes suddenly burst into brilliance, and the corners of his eyes were slightly small: "Yuan Yang thinks, what is the fundamental?" ”

"The fundamental thing is to reform the military system and curb the power of the nobles, so that the monarchy can be truly unified, in short, it is to abolish the hereditary generals of the unified army, even if the nobles are to guard the passes, they should be under the command of the imperial court, refine the military positions, separate the two powers of the army and the army, and will not specialize in the army, the army will not be private, and the emperor will be guaranteed to control the army to the greatest extent, not the present...... The power of the monarch will be somewhat constrained by the nobles. ”

The Son of Heaven never expected that his show of closeness and informality would lead to Yu Feng's heartfelt words, and he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "I really didn't expect it...... Yuan Yang can know that once the military system reform is implemented, your Yue's Patriotic Mansion will also be greatly reduced, even the Chu Palace...... Without the hereditary generals of the old army to consolidate their power, their prestige is also thinned. ”

"As a courtier, should be loyal to the monarchy, whether it is the Chu Wangfu or the Weiguo Mansion, will not only for their own power and not consider the righteousness of the monarch and ministers, the previous dynasties, the world is stable, the military power must be in the hands of the emperor, in order to ensure the peace of the country and the people, otherwise the nobles have too many wars in their hands, and they will become a situation in the local area. Yu Feng said unequivocally: "If the Weiguo Mansion and the Chu Wangfu are only for their own selfishness, and ignore the hidden dangers of the monarchy, how is it different from Jin Rebellion?" He is even more worthy of being a saintly and trustworthy minister, and he has the grace of the emperors of the three dynasties. ”

When Yu Feng spoke, he calmly looked directly at the Son of Heaven, not noticing that the palm of the emperor's knee was firmly clenched.

After more than ten breaths, the Son of Heaven raised his arm and patted Yu Feng's shoulder twice: "I am worthy of my surname Yu's descendants, and I am far away...... Sure enough, it's good. But suddenly the topic changed: "Since you see it so thoroughly, do you have any opinions about the future prince?" Seeing that Yu Feng wanted to get up, the Son of Heaven pressed his shoulder: "Don't say those unpredictable lies, you are a child of the clan, in the future, Emperor Dalong will not be able to do without your assistance, the reform of the military system will not happen overnight, this matter is more difficult than the reform of the official system, time does not wait for me, I can only rely on you in the future." ”

Yu Feng was keenly aware of the slight coldness and regret in the words of the Son of Heaven, his heart sank, and he also shook his palm, and only after a few breaths did he say: "If you want to reform the military system and the monarchy, the reigning emperor must be tenacious and decisive, with both a thunderous and iron fist, and a wise will...... From the nephew's point of view, the third and fourth princes both have the quality of emperors, but they ...... The wife of the fourth highness is the Qin family, and he is afraid that he will ...... in the future The Qin family is unwilling to lose power. ”

"Why isn't King Fu thinking about it?" The expression of the Son of Heaven became more and more gentle, because what Yu Feng said just now had already pointed out that the three princes were more suitable.

"King Fu has a generous heart, if it is already the rule of peace, there are no internal and external troubles, King Fu can be the king of success, but to change the government, King Fu is not decisive and resolute. King Fu has never had the heart to be a king, has no quarrel with the world, and has shortcomings in his decision. ”

The Son of Heaven chuckled: "If Shiro succeeds to the throne, he will definitely get close to his relatives, maybe my official reform will become a waste of chess, and the Qin family will not let go of the plan to suppress the nobles, but he is not suppressed by the family of the previous dynasty, and if he curbs the nobles in a blind way, the power is unbalanced, and it will lead to chaos, Shiro has taken the wrong first step, and it will be difficult to control the situation." ”

"Uncle Shengming."

"You think well, I pay more attention to San Lang, with his wisdom, I will not be constrained by my relatives." The Son of Heaven suddenly looked solemn: "Yuanyang, do you have any scruples in your heart?" ”

Yu Feng stood up without hesitation this time, snatched his robe and knelt on the ground: "The subordinate has scruples, so although the subordinate has the loyalty to assist the saint to reform the military system, in order to protect his family, he has the courage to beg the saint to give him a favor." ”

What kind of scruples are well known among the monarchs and ministers.

Therefore, the Son of Heaven did not ask, but only said, "It doesn't hurt for you to say." ”

"The ministers plead for the decree to allow the Chu Wangfu to go to the domain at the right time."

Timing ...... The Son of Heaven smiled again: "Okay, I promise you that I will give a decree first, and if the king of Chu invites himself to go to the domain, he will agree." ”

Yu Feng's heart was relieved: "The ministers thank God." ”

But it caused the Son of Heaven to sigh: "San Lang's temperament, sometimes too paranoid, Yuanyang, I agree to your request, you must also follow my order, in the future, I will do my best to assist San Lang, help him reform the military system, and give me Dalong Jiangshan under the rule of Yu a prosperous and prosperous Qing Ping ruling world." ”

——

Coming out of the imperial study of Qianming Palace, Yu Feng met a certain prince wearing a black brocade and snow collar cloak and was in high spirits.

After seeing the ceremony, the third prince first smiled: "Yuanyang, this is a face saint?" ”

"Your Highness is about to face the saint?" Yu Feng did not answer the rhetorical question.

Every question and answer is nonsense, if it is not for the face saint, who has nothing to do with the Qianming Palace.

"After the early dynasty, I was about to go to Shuntianfu, and I got the holy edict." The third prince clenched his fists to his lips and coughed lightly, and pulled Yu Feng aside to avoid it: "My heart is full of eight things, and Yuanyang is angry." ”

Yu Feng: ......

The third prince frowned: "Don't you want to force marriage again......"

Yu Gebu's heart suddenly surged with "evil thoughts", and it was easy to contain it: "In my opinion, the Holy One has no anger, Your Highness, please hurry." ”

The third prince smiled, as if he was really afraid of his father's reprimand, and was relieved to learn that his father was in a good mood, patted Yu Feng's shoulder, and then strode into the palace gate.

Yu Feng took a few steps and paused, but he didn't look back, and his brows gradually frowned.

Until today, all speculations have been confirmed, but the saint is so anxious that he has not made any action to consolidate the position for the third prince, and then with the words "time does not wait for me" just now, and the faint sadness and regret...... He suddenly realized that the Son of Heaven had a preference for the Son of Heaven for a long time, and he should have done so in his previous life.

The crown prince was assassinated, and the Son of Heaven soon became seriously ill, and everyone in the world thought that the pain was too much...... The Son of Heaven was wise and resolute, and even if he was saddened by the death of the prince, it seemed that he should not be seriously ill.

Could it be that the Holy Dragon Body is in danger......

Yu Feng's pace slowed down, he really hoped that the "unfathomable" three princes could focus on the overall situation, live up to the expectations of the Son of Heaven, and be a wise and iron-fisted ruler of the world, and stabilize the national government of Dalong.

But his mood at this time was clearly difficult to settle down, and he was even unprecedentedly worried.

Yu Feng didn't believe that the three princes had not noticed the emphasis and expectations of the saint until this time...... But if in that life, the Sacred Heart is the same as it is now, why was the crown prince assassinated?

Yu Feng suddenly remembered that Yi Jing had relayed the words of the third prince before, the throne and revenge, and he didn't want to give up.

And the happiest thing is nothing more than killing the prince with his own hands, but instead letting the queen try her best to assist him, the murderer, to ascend the throne.

When the power is in hand, tell the queen who the crown prince died at, and look at the queen's painful and regretful appearance of gritting her teeth at the beginning...... It is enough to relieve hatred.

Yu Gebu's feet were slow again, and this time he turned to look at Qianming Palace.

Your Royal Highness the Third Prince, can I ask you to stop tossing around?
