Chapter 61: The Establishment of the Prince
As Xu Han said this, there was a burst of exclamations on the field, but it was fleeting.
Those dignitaries and nobles from all over Chang'an had already projected their attention here when Lang Chaosha arrived, and Xu Han deliberately raised his voice a few points when he said this, which must have reached their ears clearly.
For a moment, everyone's eyes on the Fang Ziyu suddenly became surprised.
Meng Liang was even more stunned.
Isn't the emperor of Chen a mystery?
Thinking of raising eyebrows with Fang Ziyu, Meng Liang, who was white-headed and old, couldn't accept such a sudden fact for a while. He turned his head to look at Xu Han who said this, but the other party was glaring at him at this time.
Meng Liang was stunned, he was very serious about what Xu Han meant.
He thought about the previous Lang Chaosha who Ziyu had a marriage with, and Guanziyu's appearance was obviously unwilling to agree.
Xuanji and Ziyu are in the same door again, and at this moment they took it out as a shield and pushed this marriage.
Meng Liang thought like this, and turned his head to look at Fang Ziyu again, but saw that her face was also full of shock, and she didn't know anything about Empress Chen.
Meng Liang was overjoyed, and secretly scolded himself for being suspicious, Ziyu was in love with him, and Xuanji was his younger brother, how could there really be anything between the two?
"Ahem. Meng Liang came to his senses, he straightened up, looked at that Lang Chaosha with a straight face, and said, "Yes, I came this time not only to inform His Majesty of the enthronement, but also to take Queen Fang back to China and marry the Holy Lord. ”
Meng Liang said it seriously, coupled with his identity as the envoy of the Chen State, such a military event, although everyone was surprised by this news, no one would doubt the authenticity of his words.
Sure enough, Lang Chaosha's face changed when he heard this, and the relationship between Chen Xuanji and Fang Ziyu Everyone in the Linglong Pavilion had heard of it a little, and it was certainly not impossible for him to do this.
"This..."He suddenly didn't know how to uncover this matter, he originally brought Lin Kai here just to disgust Xu Han, but he didn't want to involve Chen Erguo, if such a thing was really blamed, how could he afford it.
"Enter the palace!"
Just when he was riding a tiger, a shrill and high-pitched voice suddenly came from the direction of the palace gate, but it was the ministers in the palace who were directing everyone to enter the palace.
The crowd began to move towards the palace gate in an orderly manner, which made Lang Chaosha, who was difficult to ride a tiger, find an opportunity, he stared at Xu Han fiercely, then pulled Lin Kai, who was pale, and turned to leave.
"Ziyu, don't worry, it's okay. Seeing Lang Chaosha leaving, Meng Liang, who thought that the plan had succeeded, looked at Fang Ziyu proudly and said as if he was invited.
But before these words came out, the low Fang Ziyu stomped his feet with a blushing face and ran away.
"Ziyu!" Seeing this, Meng Liang wanted to chase as long as he wanted to, but was stopped by Xu Han.
I saw Xu Han apologetically glance at Qin Keqing beside him, and the other party gave him a blank look, and then chased in the direction where Fang Ziyu left.
Since Si Bai also came to participate in this banquet, Xu Han was afraid that something would happen in this banquet, and he would use Fang Ziyu to leave Qin Keqing to separate him, so as not to get anything really happening, which would be unfavorable to the two of them.
"Brother Xu... This..."Meng Liang looked at Xu Han and was a little puzzled.
"The girl is thin-skinned, let her go, besides, Lang Chaosha and they are also in this banquet..."Xu Han said with a smile, but his eyes looked up and down at this Meng Liang. Speaking of which, he can be regarded as his own senior brother, right? It's just that the other party doesn't know his identity, and Xu Han doesn't mean to break it.
Meng Liang groaned slightly when he heard this, but he also felt that Xu Han's words were polite, he nodded, and said with self-reproach: "Alas... It's all my impatient nonsense, and Ziyu is now blaming me. I have a sincere affection for her, and in order to get her out of the entanglement, I said this... Alas..."
Meng Liang's distressed self-talk made Xu Han dumbfounded.
"She must be very sad at this moment, thinking that this is the case, no, I have to explain it to her, and I can't let her misunderstand. With that, Meng Liang was going to chase after him again.
Xu Han came back to his senses at this time, and he grabbed Meng Liang, "Uh... I will explain this matter to you, this Your Majesty's feast is about to begin, if you leave, Yu Lishu will not be able to say it. ”
Fang Ziyu was full of Chen Xuanji, and his senior brother didn't know which string in his brain was wrong, how did he become sincere with him... Xu Han didn't dare to let Meng Liang touch Miss Fang's brow at this time.
"Then I'll explain it when the banquet is over. Meng Liang nodded, and then reluctantly agreed.
"Well said, well said. Xu Han replied curtly, but his brain was a little painful. I originally wanted to get rid of Fang Ziyu and raise the name of Empress Chen Guo to avoid people with a heart from taking the marriage contract to make it difficult for Fang Ziyu, but I didn't want to lead such a big battle.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly pulled Meng Liang towards the palace, but he thought in his heart that he still had to find an opportunity to explain everything to his senior brother.
......
"How are Ziyu doing these days?"
"You said I came all the way to see her later, do you want to prepare some gifts?"
"What does she like?"
"Alas, no, it's over when the banquet ends, won't it be too abrupt to go so late?"
......
Xu Han cried and listened to the Meng Liang babbling in his ears along the way, feeling sorry for himself for a while, and full of anticipation for a while.
How can there be any bit of the arrogance of the great prince Meng when he defeated the great Zhou kendo genius all the way? Xu Han secretly felt in his heart, there are not a few kendo geniuses in the world, but why did his own master and uncle just take a fancy to Meng Liang's wonder.
Finally walked to the Weiyang Palace, if it weren't for where this person sits, there would have been a rule in the palace before, Xu Han estimated that Meng Liang could stay in his ears all night without stopping.
When he entered the palace gate, Xu Han hurriedly found an excuse and sat in the position that the ministers had already arranged for him, so as to avoid the nagging of his cheap senior brother full of "Ziyu", "Ziyu", and "Ziyu".
......
Xu Han sat quietly for a hundred breaths, and people from all walks of life sat down one after another.
As the Grand Lieutenant of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the head of the Tiance Mansion, Xu Han was in a very high position, just behind Yu Wang Yu Wenyang and Zong Zheng Yu Wencheng, who was also a clan relative, and opposite him was Zhu Xianzhu, the master of the Long Night Division.
Next to the other party were also sitting immortals from Linglong Pavilion, as well as Song Yueming in purple robes.
Xu Han and Song Yueming hadn't seen each other for several months, but both of them had a very tacit understanding and didn't look at each other, as if they were strangers.
As for Zhu Xian and Si Bai, they forgot about Xu Han, the two talked very happily, and Zhu Xian kept introducing the important members of the court to him.
It wasn't until Yu Wenluo arrived that the feast really began.
After Yu Wenluo said a scene, it was the hundred officials who congratulated, and then all parties talked and laughed. No one talked about any political affairs, and no one talked about the people of the states who were already trapped by the snow storm at the moment.
"It has been eighteen years since I ascended the throne. In the middle of the banquet, Yuwen Luo, who had been silent on the stage, suddenly lifted the wine glass in his hand and looked at everyone in the audience with drunken eyes.
"I am more than forty years old this year, but unfortunately I still don't have an heir, so I want to set up a prince for this Great Zhou Sheji, and I have calmed the hearts of the people, what do you think of Aiqing?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience looked at each other in twos and twos, and there was a trace of horror in their eyes.
Emperor Taiyuan did not have any heirs, but after all, he was in the prime of life, and if he made a prince at this time, he would be able to find a candidate... Everyone was stunned at that time, and they all turned their eyes to Yuwang Yuwenyang, who was sitting in the first seat, who was quite similar to Yuwenluo.
As we all know, when Emperor Taiyuan ascended the throne, he slaughtered all the princes, and only this brother with the same father and mother survived. And over the years, His Royal Highness King Yu has never participated in political affairs in order to protect himself, if it weren't for the fact that Yu Wenluo proposed to establish a prince at this moment, I am afraid that everyone would have forgotten about this prince.
But before the matter of establishing the prince was revealed, His Royal Highness King Yu, who was drinking happily, suddenly turned pale, and the cup of wine in his hand spilled, and he almost came out of his hand.
"I wonder if Your Majesty has a favorite candidate in your heart?" At this time, the Zhu Shouzao stepped out and asked.
"My royal family is prosperous, and there are many talents, and I am also undecided, but I wish the first seat a recommendation?" Yu Wenluo asked with squinted eyes.
"Yuwang Yu Wenyang, known as a virtuous person, and his majesty's younger brother, thinks that he can take on this great responsibility. ”
"No, no!" Before these words could be spoken, His Royal Highness the King of Yu stepped forward and said in a trembling voice. I saw him walk quickly to the main hall, and knelt down towards Yu Wenluo: "The ministers are sparse and shallow, the prince is related to the survival of the world, the ancestors are in the community, the ministers can't be, they can't be!"
Yu Wenyang is not stupid, now the streets and alleys are full of the proverb that rebels against the monarch and kills his father to ascend the throne, who is behind this can be seen with a clear eye, and if he is being made the prince, it will inevitably become a thorn in the side of some people.
So there was an extremely ridiculous scene in this Weiyang Palace.
The ministers and Yu Wenluo persuaded him several times, but Yu Wenyang did not obey in every way, and everyone saw that he praised him to the sky, and they wanted to praise him as a saint in the world, but he belittled himself vigorously, and almost said that he was inferior to a pig and a dog.
The ensuing banquet ended in such a farce.
Yuwen Luo said happily that let Yu Wenyang think about it in Haosheng, and he would think about it again, and then he brushed his sleeves and left, and the dissatisfaction on his face was overflowing.
Xu Han didn't have much feeling about this farce, he was about to leave after the banquet, but when he walked to the palace gate, he was stopped by the Meng Liang.
"Let's go, hurry. Meng Liang was very impatient to pull Xu Han and said in his mouth.
Xu Han had nothing to do about this eldest prince, he asked helplessly: "In such a hurry, where are you going?"
"The vendors in Chang'an are about to close down, hurry up and buy some gifts, so that they can apologize to Ziyu!" Meng Dagongzi seemed to have no idea about the farce that had happened in the hall recently, and he only had Fang Ziyu in his heart, so he didn't pay attention to Xu Han's wishes at all, and hurriedly walked towards the outside of the palace with him.
