Volume 2 Kyoto Storm Chapter 458 The Ruling of the Imperial Council
On the sixth day of Huang Zhang's funeral, before the first seven days, the third prince couldn't hold back and was about to start acting!
At the time of the court meeting, the doctor Yao Xun was on the matter of commanding the city defense battalion.
After Huang Zhang's death, Qi Binxing, who was originally the deputy commander of the city defense battalion, served as the acting commander, but this is the acting commander after all, and with Qi Bin's current status, it is not enough to become a regular.
There was no need to be in such a hurry, but the third prince couldn't hold it back, and he always felt that if this position was in his hands one day later, there would be one more day of change.
"Lord Yao, the bones of the eldest prince are not cold, and it is too anxious to discuss the position of the commander of the city defense battalion so urgently at this time!" Taiwei Liang Qian said unhappily.
Liang Qian naturally knew who the counselor Yao Xun was doing things for, but someone had to stand up and say a few words about this fair word!
The third prince glanced at Liang Qian, now he was the only one left among all the princes in Beijing, he didn't understand why Liang Qian, who had dealings with him before, actually stood up today!
The third prince's face was a little displeased!
Yao Xun's behavior was approved by him, and he also instructed him to do so, it is impossible for Liang Qian, an old and refined guy, not to know, but now he wants to stand up against himself, which is really a little incomprehensible!
However, the third prince didn't say much, this kind of thing, without His Majesty's permission, it is inconvenient for him to say more!
"Lord Liang's words are not right, everyone regrets the death of the eldest prince, the most important thing at the moment is to track down the real culprit and eliminate the remnants of the anti-thieves, and now the city defense camp has no leader, if it is not immediately appointed, how can it be co-ordinated?" Yao Xun retorted.
"Investigating the remnants of the anti-thieves, Xiang Wen and I have agreed that the Tingwei Mansion and the Beijing Army's heavy armored iron cavalry will act together, and the city defense battalion will guard the safety of the Beijing Division, and you must not leave without permission, now that the funeral of the eldest prince is the most important, how can you do such a hurried thing when the eldest prince is not buried!"
"According to the old man, the eldest prince has died, and it is time to consider the candidate for the crown prince! As for the matter of the commander of the city defense battalion, he should choose a candidate after the eldest prince, so as not to have too many dreams at night! ”
Hearing Liang Qian's words, Yao Xun was about to refute, but he didn't expect a heavyweight to also speak!
The person who opened his mouth was Taifu Yan Yan, he and Taishi Qi Zhang were both above the three dukes, but like Taishi, they were both old and had never been to court on weekdays.
But today is a rare court meeting.
Judging from what he said just now, it is obvious that the third prince invited him to make a strong appearance.
Although Taishi and Taifu do not have much power in the court, their prestige is quite high, and with Yan Yan's words, there is almost no opposition in the court! Many people even stood up and advised His Majesty the Emperor to reappoint the post of commander of the city defense battalion.
Taiwei Liang Qian naturally wouldn't go to Taifu Yan Yan to be tough, after all, where the prestige is, he still has to consider Yan Yan's authority.
The emperor was upset during this time, and when Yao Xun said just now that he was going to choose a new city defense battalion commander, he almost couldn't help but let him get out of here! It's just that before he could speak, Liang Qian had already stood up to refute for him.
The ministers below were busy fighting for power, and no one cared about the grief of the emperor, who had just passed the age of confusion, losing his two sons in the same year.
When the second child died, he was very sad, but it was just like that, after all, the second child helped take care of the government before, and the utilitarianism was too heavy, and the royal family affection was weak.
The emperor regrets the death of the second prince at most, and regrets that the empire has no excellent successor!
But it's a different story for the boss! The moment he heard the news of the boss's death, he really felt heartache!
All the performances of this eldest son were incompatible with the children of the imperial family, and the emperor was quite happy when he saw him for the first time after Sunan returned.
In this eldest son, he really felt what family affection is.
Of course, it's somewhat ironic to talk about family affection at the royal family.
But for him, it is.
Huang Zhang dared to confront him in front of him in the court, and even ignored his imperial domineering and majesty, he was really angry at that time, and he wanted to strip him of his identity immediately.
But when I think about it, isn't this just like a father, a child talking back to a father?
This is also the reason why this emperor has repeatedly connived at Huang Zhang, although he is an emperor, he is not like an emperor, after all, no emperor will attach so much importance to feelings, in these days when the queen has died, she has never thought of finding another person to replace her place.
The death of the eldest prince made the emperor feel that he was more than ten years old in an instant.
He didn't want to find out who did it to the eldest prince, being in the royal family, he had to walk on thin ice, and he did this back then.
It's just that these ministers can't even wait for this little time.
The emperor is a little tired!
In this position, he was too tired to sit 1!
"Well, leave the matter to ......"
He glanced at the third child, and from the third child's eyes, he saw the burning desire, which was a kind of fanatical pursuit of power.
At least, this kind of look, he has never seen it in the boss!
In the end, he still couldn't hold back and pointed at Taifu Yan Yan.
"It's up to Taifu to personally select people, and when the time comes, just hand it over to the minister for review! You don't have to tell me! ”
After speaking, the emperor gave the order to retreat from the dynasty!
The third prince did not expect that the emperor would give the power to Taifu Yan Yan to formulate the command of the city defense camp.
It stands to reason that this power should be handed over to himself, after all, if you want to become the crown prince, the commander of the city defense battalion is a position that must be taken.
The forbidden army belongs to the emperor, which is a symbol of the throne, but the commander of the city defense battalion is the forbidden area of the prince.
But right now, the emperor didn't think about leaving the choice of the commander of the city defense battalion to himself!
The third prince knew that His Majesty the Emperor was still not very satisfied with himself!
He looked in the direction of the emperor, his eyes full of resentment!
He had done enough for that position, but from beginning to end, he had not been recognized by the emperor.
Even after the death of his two elder brothers, he still refused to give up that position to himself!
He didn't understand, why did the emperor not value himself so much?
The nails that Huang Ye held in the palm of his hand were almost embedded in his palm.
Although His Majesty the Emperor handed over the position of commander of the city defense battalion to Yan Yan to be responsible, Yan Yan put it bluntly, he also supported the three princes!
Yan Yan is in charge, and in the end, it is not assigned by the three princes, and the effect is the same!
But the meaning of this is completely different!
The emperor asked Yan Yan to choose instead of the three princes, which was tantamount to telling the ministers that he did not recognize the qualifications of the three princes to become the crown prince!
I don't know if it's Liang Qian's unpredictable prophet, anyway, judging from the emperor's attitude, the third prince wants to become the prince, and the road is still long!
