Chapter 3, the emperor is well chosen, and the credit is inseparable

The hall fell silent again, waiting for the man behind the curtain to respond.

If you leave an edict, the queen mother, the queen, and the ministers will have the name to "advise".

This was done by the ministers a few years ago, but at that time the emperor was still in good health, and he was only in his twenties, so he persuaded him to step a child first and was blocked back.

After being seriously ill, Empress Dowager Zhang and Empress Xia took the initiative to mention these things again, but this time they were persuaded by the ministers.

Because of the hasty step-child, the court situation is even more unstable, and it will definitely be the queen mother who will supervise the country and the cabinet ministers for several years or even more than ten years in the future.

Neither side is at ease with the other, and you have to beware of the prince who gave his young son.

"The son of King Xingxian......" Empress Dowager Zhang finally spoke, her tone was a little hesitant, "I remember that his name is Houxi, he is fifteen years old this year, but his mother Concubine Jiang is still ......"

"Queen Mother." Yang Tinghe continued, "Xianmiao is in the same vein, King Yi is still there, and he has four sons; King Heng and King Rong both had six sons. King Ning's rebellion is still in front of him, has the Queen Mother forgotten? King Xingxian has only one son, and Lun is in the first place. ”

There was no sound behind the curtain.

Xianzong Zhu Jianshen has fourteen sons, and those who are still alive and have heirs are the only ones.

The real problem is in front of us: King Xingxian is the fourth, second only to Zhu Youzhang, the third of Ming Xiaozong.

And the six kings, the seven kings, and the thirteen kings, all of them are not like the king of Xingxian, and now they are only in a single line.

Empress Dowager Zhang is willing to be an uncle and nephew, and then be an imperial sister-in-law?

Or do you choose a new king with a biological father who is still there and many brothers?

Zhu Youzhu is a good story of a generation, there is only one woman in the harem, the queen, and she is single-minded all her life.

It's good now, the bloodline is gone.

How many people are staring at this throne? King Ning rebelled, isn't it because Emperor Zhengde has no son, and many ministers in the court are uncertain?

Behind the curtain, Empress Dowager Zhang, who understood Yang Tinghe's meaning, cried, and she didn't know whether it was true or false.

"The queen mother, the queen, the lineage of the king is simple, and it is really the best choice." Seeing this, Yang Tinghe's tone became more sincere: "No one can ignore the provisions of the "Emperor Ming Ancestral Training"! The son of King Xingxian is the grandson of Xianzong, the son of Xiaozong's own brother, and the closest cousin of Emperor Daxing's bloodline! If the son of the king is sacrificed, the other kings will not be blamed! The prince is fifteen years old, and the queen mother and our ministers elected him, so that there will be no suspicion of supporting the young monarch and taking power by arbitrary. ”

"Emperor Ming Zuxun" moved out again, and Wei Bin carefully looked at the blurred figure behind the curtain.

The cabinet is leading by example and completely blocking the way of the Empress Dowager Zhang's curtain!

The seizure of government and power has been spoken.

But when Wei Bin heard Yang Tinghe say this, he really felt that Xingxian Wang's son was the best choice.

If it really bypasses the line of King Xingxian, then the Queen Mother and the Manchu Dynasty will have to bear the reputation of being a chaotic minister and thief.

“…… If so, in what name should he be the heir? Empress Dowager Zhang finally choked up and asked the key question, and also emphasized the word heir.

"Of course, it is to respect the queen mother as the mother, and to take the younger brother and stepbrother, so that it is polite and foolproof."

"That's right...... What is the child's character? Empress Dowager Zhang's voice suddenly brightened a little, and she cared about other details.

Yang Ting and Cheng Zhu said in their chests: "The son of the world is dignified, benevolent and filial piety is abnormal, and he is determined in the morning and dusk, and there is nothing or missing. Offering the king, the son of the world wept until he fainted. Filial piety is kept for a year and in September, and the etiquette is comprehensive. Diving into the classics all day long, not having fun, is really the best choice for the heir. ”

Wei Bin and the others were strange in their hearts.

In Yang Tinghe's mouth, this Xingxian Wang Shizi seems to be the opposite of Emperor Zhengde.

The son is filial, but Emperor Zhengde can't control his own mother.

One is always said to be playful and messing around, but this son of the world is dignified and self-controlled, likes to read books and understands etiquette.

“…… Can you talk about the princess? The Queen Mother asked again.

"Nope. When King Xingxian was there, the prince was still young; Now that he is in the period of filial piety, the son of the world is obedient and clean. The female envoy in the house was very strict in discipline, and there was no temptation in the slightest. ”

"Sounds like a good boy......" Empress Dowager Zhang seemed to accept this suggestion, after all, if there is no crown princess, then the queen will be able to choose the queen in the future.

She asked suspiciously: "Remember the day before yesterday, the emperor had already given him permission to be crowned a prince?" ”

"It does. According to the old practice, the prince and the son who have not been sealed will only be given 200 stone of rice, and the seal must be released. Your Majesty is seriously ill and does not forget the important affairs of the society......" Yang Tinghe's voice choked up, and after a pause, he explained, "Your Majesty is specially offering the son of the king to take the prince and lead the prince, which shows that Your Majesty also belongs to the prince." The election of this son is also regarded as the loyalty of the ministers to His Majesty! ”

Empress Dowager Zhang was silent, not knowing what emotions were now.

"The incident happened suddenly, and I have been looking for medical advice for His Majesty for the past two days, and the holy decree of ordering the prince to inherit the title of prince has not yet left Beijing." Yang Tinghe said, "The minister asked the queen mother to go to Anlu with a decree to go to Anlu first, and ordered the prince to release the lord when he saw the decree, and the grace came from the queen mother." ”

"First release to serve the Raider?"

"There are still nine months in the filial piety period of the son, if it is still in the filial piety period, how to succeed the heir? The country cannot be without a king for a day, send an envoy to go first, and when the edict arrives in Anlu, you can enter Beijing as soon as possible. ”

After a moment of silence, Empress Dowager Zhang asked again: "Who should be sent to Anlu to welcome you?" How should the emperor's funeral be arranged? ”

Wei Bin couldn't help but get nervous.

When Empress Dowager Zhang asked this, she had completely agreed to the cabinet's proposal.

The new monarch is thus determined, it is the son of the king of Xingxian!

The new monarch is decided, and the next people who go to announce the edict are all meritorious deeds.

"It is safer to capture Jiang Bin and Zhang Gonggong to suppress the soldiers of the mighty regiment training camp and then tell the emperor that the world has been released. At the same time, the edict also needs to be promulgated all over the world. The Fengying regiment needs to be lightly cared for, and it will go quickly as soon as it is dawn, and the escort army will then be dispatched to converge. ”

After Yang Tinghe Yitong suggested, he turned sideways and looked at the second assistant Liang Chu: "As for the candidates for the Fengying group, the cabinet ministers need to have one of them." Bachelor Liang is old, and he is afraid that he will be tired of traveling, and at this time of the old and the new, I am afraid that there are still many things in the DPRK that need to be decided by Bachelor Liang. The minister's meaning, please go to Master Jiang. ”

Jiang Mian was about to ask for help when he heard this, but Liang Chu preemptively said, "Is there anything bigger than this?" How can I excuse myself because I am old? ”

Yang Tinghe hesitated for a moment, and then persuaded again: "Uncle Hou, now that I have a thousand clues, the cabinet can't do without you." ”

"There is respect and maintenance, what worries about the elder?" Liang Chu replied lightly.

Liang Chu is thick, Jiang Mian and Mao Ji are respectful and Weizhi respectively. Yang Tinghe and Liang Chu all called the three other ministers by words, but Liang Chu did not call Yang Tinghe the elder of the pavilion, instead of calling him the same word.

Wei Bin sneered in his heart when he looked at it from the sidelines: It is rare for the second assistant Liang Chu, who has always been a good person, to be positive.

At present, Yang Tinghe is covering the sky with one hand, and he put forward the proposal of offering the prince of the king, not only the queen mother, but also the prince of Liang has nothing to say.

Is the queen mother's relatives interfering in politics, or letting the cabinet ministers assist the country?

The plan of offering the succession of the prince to the throne has just made the queen mother and the cabinet feel suitable, and the cabinet is fighting again.

At this moment, Liang Chu can't compete with Yang Tinghe in the cabinet, so it is better to run with his old body and make a contribution first.

Jiang Mian was very angry.

Liang Chu is already old, if he is boiled away first, wouldn't Yang Tinghe be the first assistant after him? If there is more success, this speed will definitely be accelerated.

But before he could open his mouth to fight for himself, Wei Bin suddenly interjected: "Liang Ge is highly respected, and he is indeed the best candidate." On the minister's side, Gonggong Zhang has a heavy responsibility, and he should be headed by Gonggong Gu, and Wei Lin and Zhang Jin will go together. To release the decree of the Emperor Yi, Zhang Jin can be sent to arrive first, and then join the Fengying group. ”

From the beginning, after suggesting the Queen Mother's "holy decree", Wei Bin never dared to say more.

But now to welcome a new king, the ministers must definitely be out.

Yang Tinghe had already ordered Zhang Yongfang Jiang Bin before, and Wei Bin had to further open his mouth to test it.

Zhang Yong looked at Wei Bin with a little surprise: Yingli Gong, he doesn't want it?

I saw Wei Bin say again: "If you want to Xuan Jiangbin enter the palace, the minister may come in handy." When the minister goes to announce the decree, Jiang Bin will not doubt it. ”

After he said that, he looked at Yang Tinghe, thinking that he should understand his eyes: This vote is enough, right? I do have an in-law relationship with Jiang Bin, and Jiang Bin is more likely to be tricked into the palace by me.

From persuading the Empress Dowager to assisting the cabinet, Wei Bin's operation is so silky.
