A palace banquet, he lost two sons one after another, although the fourth child has been demoted to a concubine by him, but it is also his son, half of his blood is left in his body, gone, one or two are gone......

Sitting quietly on the dragon bed, Emperor Yongkang looked stunned and did not make a sound for a long time.

"The Emperor's ......"

Luo Fuhai called softly, his voice full of concern.

"Stand down, I want to be alone."

Waving his hand, Emperor Yongkang waved away Luo Fuhai.

Is the throne really that good?

It's so good that you fight for it between brothers, and even fight each other with swords in order to win the throne?

Emperor Yongkang looked through the glass window at the sky shining against the snow, and the corners of his mouth slowly smeared with a wry smile. When he was young, he also longed to sit on the throne and take charge of the Great Xia country.

But when he really became an emperor and became the master of a country, he felt the weight of the burden on his shoulders, and felt that no amount of time in a day was enough.

Approve and fold, deal with the big and small political affairs of ministers from all over the country, get up early in the morning, sleep late at night, basically all year round, and throughout the emperors of all dynasties, which one lives a long life?

Tired, died early, almost all tired. Except, of course, for those who have no intention of governing the country. Emperor Yongkang thought so, he also knew that no matter which dynasty or generation of imperial power was alternated,

There must be a battle between the open and the covert, but here he really doesn't want the prince under his knees to compete for the chair on the temple and the Great Xia River inherited from him, one by one, regardless of brotherhood.

I don't want to, and I don't want to see it, but in fact it all happened...... The boss knows that his identity has no chance of being on the throne, and he has a firm heart and has never waded through troubled waters; The second child broke his leg when he was young, and after he was healed, he walked a little lame and broke his bond with the throne;

The third child has a bit of a book, but unfortunately he doesn't have enough strategy, he will only play some unsightly means, and he will be scrapped in the seizure of the reserve; The fourth child has the ability, but it is not a thing, even he, the harem of the imperial father, dares to touch it;

Old Five...... The fifth child has no brains, is arrogant, and has a short temper...... I thought that I should learn a lesson from the third and fourth children, do errands in a down-to-earth manner, and have a knighthood in the future, and be rich for a lifetime, so it will be very good, who knows......

Who knew that the stinky boy would die at the hands of the fourth child tonight...... The fourth child, forcing the palace to rebel, it is estimated that the murder of his father and slaughter of his brothers are included in the plan, but the conspiracy was exposed, the success fell short, he couldn't accept the blow, and he coughed up blood to death......

resents him for being ruthless and cruel, if he is really ruthless and cruel, why didn't he just give him a cup of poisoned wine in the first place?

left a life, saying that it was sent to the bitter cold land of the border pass, and he didn't believe that the unfilial son would really let himself live a hard life.

The result?

Most of the time he was making a show to him, he broke a leg on the way to the border pass, and he didn't treat it in time, so as to cause him to soften his heart and withdraw the will he issued.

Waiting for him to retract the will he issued, he was scheming, tossing his own body, and when he got the news, he couldn't help but be even more angry. Is he playing with his father?

If you want him to be soft-hearted, then he is not as good as he wants, as time goes by year by year, he has thought about ten years, to change places for unfilial sons, unexpectedly...... Unexpectedly, the unfilial son directly gave him a golden cicada to come out of his shell, hid for several years, and planned today's drama of forcing the palace to rebel......

Thinking of the scene at the palace banquet, Emperor Yongkang's heart tingled slightly, especially when he thought of the five princes' lips were bruised, lying in a pool of blood and he didn't even struggle a few times before he lost his breath, Emperor Yongkang's heart hurt even more.

died, the fifth died, died at the hands of the fourth, the fourth died, died on his broken body and unbearable endurance.

With a long sigh, Emperor Yongkang withdrew his stunned gaze from the window and slowly lay down on the dragon bed.

The night was quiet and long, and I don't know how long it took, but Emperor Yongkang fell asleep.

The next morning. Emperor Yongkang said that he wanted the throne to be given to the prince, and he was so shocked that the civil and military officials knelt on the ground and asked Emperor Yongkang to take back his fate, but Emperor Yongkang decided to order Qin Tianjian to pick the nearest auspicious day to hold the Zen throne ceremony and the new emperor's enthronement ceremony.

"Please take back your father's order!"

Xia Chengrui knelt in the center of the hall, spoke earnestly, and begged Emperor Yongkang to cancel the Zen position.

"Prince, you have no jokes."

Emperor Yongkang's tone was light, and he looked at the prince and said: "Since you were twelve years old, I have taken the court to listen to the government and teach you how to deal with government affairs.

I see your ability in my eyes, I believe that this Manchu dynasty is also in my eyes, and I believe that you can be a good emperor who is diligent in government and loves the people, tell me, can you have confidence? ”

With Emperor Yongkang's calm and unwavering, full of trusting eyes, Xia Chengrui clenched his fists, his eyes were firm, word by word, and said very seriously: "The son will live up to the trust of his father!" ”

He is the crown prince, and he has six in twenty this year, but he never thought of ascending to the throne early, because in his eyes, his father did a good job as an emperor, and he still has a lot of things to learn from his father.

But this morning, my father threw out such a thunderbolt as "Zen Throne" without warning, and to be honest, he didn't feel very happy except for the accident and shock. This is how he really feels,

It's not hypocrisy, it's not hypocrisy, however, he also knows one thing clearly, his father is a king, and there is no reason to take it back. Otherwise, the prestige of the emperor will be lost!

"Mother, does the emperor really want the Zen throne for the prince?"

After returning home, Song Fengyan came to the main courtyard, and as soon as he entered Ye Xia's study, he opened his mouth and asked such a question.

The window was ajar, Ye Xia looked at the snowflakes flying in the sky and a few red plums in full bloom outside the window, curled the corners of his lips and said, "You have no jokes." ”

Hearing this answer, Song Fengyan frowned slightly: "But the emperor's body looks very good, he said that he wanted to give the Zen throne to the prince, can he really calm down and let go of the authority in his hands that day?" ”

The wind blew into the study with the fragrance of cold plums, Ye Xia moved his gaze, looked at his son and said, "If the emperor can speak, he will naturally not be greedy for power." What's more, the emperor's political achievements for Daxia during his reign have been in place,

The people of the world can see that even if he becomes the emperor in the future, he can also watch the new emperor for a period of time, besides, the new emperor is the emperor's son-in-law, this own son takes care of the family business, the emperor takes a back seat, and life can be easier. Also, the emperor is taking the initiative to take the throne, so naturally he will not covet the power in his hands. ”

After more than ten years, Emperor Yongkang's impression in Ye Xia's heart has changed a lot.

This point is not difficult to deduce from Ye Xia's no longer slandering Emperor Yongkang as the Dog Emperor at every turn.

"In that case, then I am relieved."

Song Fengyan muttered. Ye Xia smiled: "You're worried about the prince." ”

It's not a question, it's a declarative sentence.

Song Fengyan nodded.

"You are worrying too much, the prince is the emperor's son-in-law, and the emperor has been teaching to handle political affairs for more than ten years, and now, the court is stable, and the stumbling blocks on the road to the prince's succession have all been solved by the emperor, and the emperor has no reason to use the 'Zen position' to test the prince's loyalty to the monarch's father."
