This morning, although the ministers did not quarrel like yesterday, they were still arguing over whether to add beads to the king. But. Today is a little different from yesterday.

Yesterday, in the early dynasty, the only ministers who supported the acting king and the party were the acting king's party. However, today there are many more ministers who support Acting Wang Jiazhu. To be precise, except for the people of the prince's party who oppose Dai Wang Jiazhu, everyone else is in favor of Dai Wang Jiazhu.

Acting King Jiazhu is not a good thing for the crown prince, but it is a good thing for other princes. Prince Jiazhu, not only has his status become more noble, but even the specifications around him will be improved a lot, such as fiefs and guards.

In today's court, almost everyone is in favor of acting Wang Jiazhu. For such a development, Emperor Wu of Zhou was not surprised at all.

Emperor Wu of Zhou allowed his ministers to argue, but still did not say that he disagreed with Wang Jiazhu.

Today's ministers did not quarrel like yesterday, and Emperor Wu of Zhou felt very bored, patted his ass and left. Seeing this, Sun Kui hurriedly shouted "retreat from the dynasty".

After the ministers sent Emperor Wu of Zhou away, they "surrounded" He Xiang.

"What do you mean by the emperor?"

"He Xiang, about the matter of acting Wang Jiazhu, you always have a statement."

"He Xiang, do you support Acting Wang Jiazhu, or don't you support it?"

"He Xiang, now that the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government support the acting king Jiazhu, what do you think?"

"What is ......?"

He Xiang, who was surrounded and couldn't walk, could only say helplessly: "Everyone, the matter of whether the king adds beads or not is not something that can be influenced. ”

"Prime Minister He, as the prime minister, your opinion is very important."

"The emperor has always valued you and listened to your advice. If you support the acting king and the pearl, the emperor will definitely agree. ”

He Xiang waved his hand and said with a smile: "Whether the king adds beads or not, the emperor knows it." ”

"Then in your opinion, does the emperor agree, or does he not agree?"

He Xiang Lao Shen smiled on the ground and said, "I don't dare to figure out the holy will." With that, he turned and walked away.

"What is ......?"

Don't look at He Xiang fifty or sixty years old, but he has a strong body, and he walks like a fly, and he can't see him after a while.

He Xiang hurriedly got into the carriage parked at the gate of the palace and urged the groom to leave quickly. When he got home, he told the door to be closed again, and repeatedly told anyone not to see him.

In the past two days, because of the fact that the king did not add beads, many people came to visit him, and he was very annoyed.

When the ministers saw that He Xiang couldn't speak here, they turned their minds on another person - Taishi Liu.

In the face of the ministers' inquiries, Taishi Liu had a cold face and said very impatiently that he didn't know, don't ask him.

He Xiang and Liu Taishi's mouths were too strict, and they couldn't find any news, so the ministers hit the idea on Emperor Wu of Zhou's cronies.

The cronies were not the eunuchs around Emperor Wu of Zhou, but the generals who followed Emperor Wu of Zhou to fight everywhere - Song Dekang and Shen Hu.

Song Dekang and Shen Hu were not only the favorite generals of Emperor Wu of Zhou, but also related to Emperor Wu of Zhou. However, these two were only loyal to Emperor Wu of Zhou and did not support any of the princes. The ministers asked them about whether the king would add beads or not, but they really had the wrong idea.

I knew that I couldn't find any useful news from Song Dekang and Shen Hu, but many ministers still wanted to try. The two of them were also very annoyed, so that the family closed the door and no one could see anyone.

In the palace of the Marquis of Xuanping, some important ministers who supported the acting king gathered together and continued to discuss how to get Emperor Wu of Zhou to agree to the acting king to add beads.

"Lord Hou, in the early dynasty today, except for the people of the prince's faction who opposed the acting king Jiazhu, everyone else supported the acting king Jiazhu, but the emperor was slow to express his position, which ...... Does the emperor agree or disagree? ”

"The emperor has always loved to reuse His Royal Highness the Acting King, this time the Acting King pacified Liangzhou is a great achievement, it stands to reason that the emperor should reward His Royal Highness the Acting King, I propose to the Acting King Jiazhu shouldn't be in line with the emperor's intentions, why did the emperor disagree?"

"I think the emperor wanted to agree to add beads to the acting king, but considering the crown prince, he didn't agree immediately."

"I also think that the emperor is making a show, and in a few days, the emperor will definitely agree to add beads to the acting king."

"Maybe when His Royal Highness the Acting King returns to Beijing in triumph, the emperor will add beads to His Royal Highness."

"Master Hou, Zhenguo Gong has to guard against it."

Xuanping Hou frowned slightly and said: "The matter of acting king Jiazhu cannot be delayed until the day when the acting king returns to Beijing in triumph, and it must be determined before the acting king returns to Beijing." ”

"Master Hou, what do you mean ......?"

At this moment, the Zhenguo Mansion and the important ministers who supported the crown prince also gathered together to discuss the opposition to the acting king Jiazhu.

"Guogong, now the ministers in the court support the acting king Jiazhu, how is this good?"

"Once the emperor agrees to add beads on behalf of the king, the acting king will inevitably climb on the head of His Royal Highness the crown prince."

"The acting king has already made great achievements, if he adds more beads, then his arrogance will become even more arrogant, and he will not take His Royal Highness the crown prince in his eyes more and more."

"Guogong, this matter must be resolved before the acting king returns to Beijing, otherwise when the acting king returns to Beijing, there will be no room for change in this matter."

"The emperor's attitude is not clear, which is not a good thing for us."

"The emperor is usually a decisive person, but this time he has been slow to express his position on the matter of the acting king and the pearl, I think the emperor is afraid that he also wants to add the pearl to the acting king."

"The emperor doesn't want to wait for the day when the acting king returns to Beijing and add beads to the acting king, right?"

"It's not impossible."

"Guogong, we must make the emperor completely break the idea of adding beads to the acting king before returning to Beijing."

Compared with the anxious and worried ministers, Zhen Guogong was very calm and calm: "I will never let the acting king add beads." ”

"Guogong, do you have a way?"

In the East Palace, the prince was giving a lecture to the prince, but the prince was obviously a little uneasy.

The Taifu heard what happened to the court this morning, and knew in his heart why the prince was distracted, "His Royal Highness the prince ......"

The crown prince did not hear the prince call him.

The prince called several times, and then the prince came back to his senses.

The prince looked apologetic, and hurriedly got up to ask the prince for his guilt: "Sir, I'm sorry, I'm distracted." ”

The Taifu raised his hand and motioned for the prince to sit down, and said to the prince with a loving expression: "Your Highness, the more this time, the more you can't mess up." ”

"What do you mean, sir?"

"Your Highness, you must always remember who you are." Taifu said to the prince with a deep face, "You are the prince of the Great Zhou, no matter what happens, your identity will not change!" ”

The prince didn't quite understand the meaning of Taifu's words, and said with a blank face: "Sir, I naturally remember my identity. ”

"In that case, Your Highness does not need to worry." Taifu emphasized again, "Your Highness, the more this time, the more stable you must be!" ”

The prince nodded as if he didn't understand: "I listen to Mr." ”

Tai Fu smiled kindly: "Then let's continue." ”

"Yes, sir." The prince didn't dare to be distracted anymore and listened to the prince's explanation seriously.

In the imperial study of the Chengguang Palace, Emperor Wu of Zhou threw down the fold in his hand. With a snap, Sun Kui, who was waiting on the side, trembled in fright.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" Sun Kui hurriedly picked up the fold that had been thrown to the ground by Emperor Wu of Zhou.

Emperor Wu of Zhou scolded with a cold face: "A bunch of waste. ”

When Sun Kui picked up the fold, he accidentally saw the contents inside, which was related to the chaos in Yangzhou.

"Your Majesty, you are dissipating your anger, and it is not worth it to break the dragon body." He hurriedly glanced at the little eunuch standing aside, and the little eunuch understood, and soon brought a cup of hot tea.

Sun Kui took the teacup from the little eunuch's hand and respectfully brought it to Emperor Wu of Zhou, "Your Majesty, you take a sip of tea to dissipate your anger." ”

Emperor Wu of Zhou took the teacup and drank it without any image. After drinking, the anger in his heart suddenly decreased a little, but his face was still ugly.

"Your Majesty, if you are not satisfied with the affairs of Yangzhou, you will send someone else to deal with it, why be angry with yourself."

"Go and call Liu Tongwen, Song Dekang and Shen Hu." The affairs of Yangzhou cannot be delayed any longer. If we delay any longer, it will change.
