Chapter 495: The Battle for the Throne

Two days ago, it was the time when the envoys of the Lieliang State entered Beijing to meet the emperor.

The old emperor of the Lieliang State died, the new emperor ascended the throne, and sent envoys to the Tianli Dynasty to show that he would continue to submit to the Tianli Dynasty.

However, the new emperor of Lieliang also knew that there was only one princess of the seventh princess in the Tianli Dynasty, and she was only twelve years old, and the emperor had a lot of favors, so I was afraid that the seventh princess would not marry far away from other countries, so the new emperor of Lieliang said that he was not only willing to marry a princess, which meant that the emperor could choose a daughter from the clan and be named a princess.

Ling Qingrui looked at Jing Mofeng in shock and asked, "Could it be that the seventh princess invited herself to marry Lie Liangguo?" ”

Jing Mofeng also nodded helplessly, after the seventh princess knew her identity, she felt shameless to face the emperor, and she didn't want to continue to stay in the Tianli Dynasty, so people pointed fingers, but she actually asked herself to marry Lieliang Kingdom, but this matter was pressed by King Han, and the courtiers did not know about it.

For a while, Ling Qingrui also had some mixed feelings in her heart, it could be said that the seventh princess was the daughter of the enemy, and it stands to reason that she should be happy, but she knew that no matter what Jing Chenyao did, the seventh princess was extremely innocent, and the seventh princess didn't even know her life experience before the palace change, and she was innocent and kind......

After being silent for a long time, Ling Qingrui still spoke: "Mo Feng, you go and persuade the Seventh Princess, she has always listened to you." ”

Hearing this, Jing Mofeng clenched Ling Qingrui's hand and asked, "You don't want her to marry Lie Liangguo far away?" ”

"Hmm." Ling Qingrui's eyes flickered, "Do you think I should hate the Seventh Princess because she is actually Jing Chenyao's daughter?" But I can tell clearly, Jing Chenyao is Jing Chenyao, the seventh princess is the seventh princess, even if it is a child in Jing Chenyao's palace, I will not hate it, let alone the seventh princess who grew up in the palace since she was a child, how innocent is she? ”

What Ling Qingrui didn't say was, why did such a young child let her bear her father's sins? The seventh princess may be able to marry into the Lieliang Kingdom at this time, but the Lieliang Kingdom will one day know her true identity, how should she deal with herself at that time, and what kind of treatment will she suffer at that time?

Ling Qingrui couldn't imagine that a child who was only twelve years old, about the same age as Feiyang, and was obviously at the age when he should live happily, but he was going to live alone in a foreign country, trembling and trembling, and even living a miserable life, she really couldn't imagine what kind of life it was, she ...... I don't want the seventh princess to spend her life like this.

It is not easy for a woman to be born in the world, not to mention that in this era when women are regarded as accessories, she is not a virgin, but she does not want to look at an innocent child and end up tragically.

Jing Mofeng clenched Ling Qingrui's fingers, and didn't say anything, just said that he would persuade the Seventh Princess if he found an opportunity, but neither Jing Mofeng nor Ling Qingrui expected that this opportunity would come so quickly.

On the second day, the emperor summoned Jing Mofeng and Ling Qingrui into the palace together.

The place where I saw the emperor was not in the imperial study, but in the emperor's bedroom, when the emperor was lying on the bed, and from time to time there would be a few slight and suppressed coughs.

In the emperor's bedroom, not only King Han was there, but also several important ministers in the court, so Ling Qingrui was a little confused, seeing this situation, it was actually not suitable for her to appear here, but for some reason, the emperor asked her to meet at this time.

The emperor glanced at Jing Mofeng and Ling Qingrui, who were kneeling on the ground at the same time, coughed lightly twice and asked them to get up, and then just as he wanted to speak, he coughed violently, making him speechless for the time being.

Chen Debu was busy pouring tea for the emperor to suppress the cough, while King Han took advantage of the unpreparedness to make a look at Jing Mofeng, and asked Jing Mofeng to look at the important ministers next to him, Jing Mofeng couldn't help frowning slightly, and then gently stretched out, nodding slightly at King Han.

Looking at those important ministers, for some reason, Jing Mofeng suddenly realized that the emperor was probably going to make a prince!

Sure enough, after the emperor suppressed the cough, he said in a hoarse voice: "Since I ascended the throne, although I am not the most enlightened king, I am also diligent in government and love the people, but the older I get, the more tired my body becomes, and it is difficult to support." ”

"The emperor takes care of the dragon's body!" As soon as the minister bowed, he bowed.

The emperor waved his hand slightly and said, "I know my body." For a long time, I have never set up a crown prince, which has caused many incidents in the court, so I ......"

Just when everyone thought that the emperor was going to make a crown prince, they didn't want the emperor to say directly: "Therefore, I plan to abdicate and make way for Xian, and let my son ascend the throne as the emperor, and I just want to be a carefree emperor." ”

"Please think twice!" Several important ministers immediately bowed their heads.

King Han quickly exchanged glances with Jing Mofeng, and also persuaded: "Father and Emperor think twice, Father Emperor is just occasionally sick, just take a good look at it, how did you think of passing on the throne?" ”

It can be seen that although King Han is not close to the current emperor, he is not without father-son affection, and looking at the emperor's eyes at this time, he is indeed concerned.

The emperor nodded secretly in his heart, but his eyes finally fell on Jing Mofeng, and he said, "I have made up my mind, you don't need to persuade more." Several Aiqing are all my ministers, and I have summoned a few Aiqing to come today, and several Aiqing should also understand what I mean. ”

The few people kneeling on the ground looked at each other, as important ministers of the court, and all of them were the emperor's confidants, they understood that the emperor had summoned them at this time, and I was afraid that he wanted them to be a witness, so as not to cause trouble in the future.

Just when several ministers were secretly thinking about what to do next, the emperor said amazing words again, he said: "The fifth son of the emperor, Ling Wang Jingmofeng, is up to the task, cough cough cough cough ......."

When the emperor said such an earth-shattering sentence, he began to cough, completely ignoring the shocked ministers and Jing Mofeng and others who were on the spot.

Jing Mofeng glared at the emperor angrily, then turned his eyes to look at King Han, obviously he had clearly refused before, but at this time, the emperor said so in front of several important ministers, which made him know how to deal with King Han's ambition on the throne, and how should King Han think of him!

It's just that King Han felt that Jing Mofeng was looking at him, but there was a faint smile on his always cold face, as if there was no trace of jealousy and estrangement, and it seemed that there was a sense of relief that the throne fell into the hands of Jing Mofeng.

"Fourth brother. Jing Mofeng shook his head slightly.

King Han stepped forward with a smile and said to Jing Mofeng in a low voice, "Fifth brother, don't worry, this throne ...... The fourth brother didn't want to sit, he just had no choice, and the fourth brother believed that with the ability of the fifth brother, he could definitely ......"

"Fourth brother!" Jing Mofeng interrupted King Han's words, "You know that my heart is not here, let alone ......"

Jing Mofeng looked back at Ling Qingrui, only to see Ling Qingrui with a faint but good-looking smile on her cheeks, as if she would support him unconditionally no matter what decision he made.

"What's more, Qingqing has no intention of being the queen of the world."

Jing Mofeng finished adding the rest of the words, and then looked at the emperor who no longer coughed, and said, "Please take back your order." ”

"Wind!" The emperor hated iron and looked at him.

Jing Mofeng looked directly at the emperor, did not flinch in the slightest, and said slowly: "The minister thought that he had made it clear to the emperor before, and the minister had no intention of sitting on the throne. Besides, when King Han rebelled against the palace and rebelled, he repeatedly rescued all the adults, as well as the Queen Mother and the emperor himself, and smashed Jing Chenyao's conspiracy, such a brave and resourceful person, why can't the emperor see it? During the period when the emperor was in charge of the country, King Han handled the government properly, are you still worried that King Han will not be able to be the emperor and handle the government well? ”

Although several important ministers did not say it explicitly, they all agreed with what Jing Mofeng said, the third prince Jing Mochen directly participated in Jing Chenyao's rebellion, and the emperor did not order him to be abolished directly as a concubine, it was already a pity for the son, how could such a prince succeed to the throne as the emperor?

And although the second prince Jing Mohong did not participate in Jing Chenyao's conspiracy, but that kind of attitude that has nothing to do with himself, not to mention that it is difficult for the emperor to accept, it is impossible for the courtiers to accept such a person as the emperor, only the fourth prince Han Wang and the fifth prince Ling Wang, who turned the tide at that time, are qualified to inherit the throne.

Among these two people, whether it is governing the government or dealing with military power, His Royal Highness King Han has done an excellent job, and it can be said that he is not under the current emperor at all, which is a thing for all to see.

Everyone's thoughts were chaotic, but the emperor ignored Jing Mofeng's question, and only focused on Ling Qingrui, saying, "Feng'er can not care about the throne, don't you care either?" Mother's honor in the world, isn't it good to be the most noble woman in the world? Do you want to grovel to others and wronged yourself like this? ”

After listening to the emperor's question, Ling Qingrui suddenly understood why the emperor would let her appear here at such a time, regardless of whether it was appropriate or not, the emperor wanted to open a gap from her because he knew that Jing Mofeng did not want to sit on the throne.

Ling Qingrui slowly hooked her lips and smiled, and said in a cold voice: "The emperor seems to have made a mistake, in my opinion, the so-called most noble woman is not the queen of the world, and I don't think that a woman who wants to share a husband with many women will be noble, and I don't think that giving gifts to others is groveling and wronging." ”

Without waiting for the emperor to say something to refute, Ling Qingrui looked at Jing Mofeng and said slowly: "What I want is a couple for a lifetime, dare to ask His Royal Highness King Ling, if you sit on the throne, can you still do this?" ”

Jing Mofeng looked at this proud woman like the sun, and also smiled, he replied: "No matter when and where, I will only be with you for the rest of my life!" However, I Jing Mofeng is not the emperor who needs to be recruited from the harem. ”

"You...... You ......" The emperor pointed to these two people, but he couldn't say a complete sentence.

At this moment, the unabashed affection between the two of them deeply stung his eyes, if he could have treated Ranwei so wholeheartedly, would his Ranwei not leave him?
