If it had been half an hour ago, the people of Xuanpinghou and his party hoped that He Xiang would approve of the matter of acting Wang Jiazhu. However, now the people of Xuanping Hou and his party hope that He Xiang will not support Acting Wang Jiazhu.

The people of the Zhenguo Gong Party naturally hoped that He Xiang would support Wang Jiazhu on behalf of him, so that their wish would be fulfilled.

He Xiang came out of the ranks, first saluted Emperor Wu of Zhou, and then said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the prince and the pearl are the rules of the previous dynasty, not the rules of our dynasty, and the minister feels that there is no need for my dynasty to follow the rules of the previous dynasty." Furthermore, we have the rules of our dynasty. ”

When Xuanping Hou heard He Xiang say this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He hurriedly echoed: "What Xiang said is true. ”

Other ministers who supported the acting king echoed: "What Xiang said is true. ”

When the prince and the prince heard He Xiang's answer, they were not surprised. Before, Zhen Guogong told the prince that He Xiang and Song Dekang would not agree to add Zhu on behalf of the king.

Emperor Wu of Zhou looked at Taishi Liu again and asked, "What does Taishi think?" ”

Taishi Liu walked out of the column and replied respectfully: "Your Majesty, the previous dynasty is the previous dynasty, my dynasty is my dynasty, and our dynasty does not have the rules of adding beads to the prince." Moreover, the position of the prince has become extremely noble. ”

Emperor Wu of Zhou looked at Song Dekang and Chu Ying again. Before he could ask, Song Dekang and Chu Ying took the initiative to answer: "The minister thinks what He Xiang and Taishi Liu said is right. ”

"Zhen Guogong, what do you think?"

Zhenguo Gong said solemnly: "The minister thinks that the prime minister and the prince are reasonable, my dynasty is my dynasty, and there is no need to follow the rules of the previous dynasty, but the minister is stupid, please punish the emperor." ”

The Xuanping Marquis party and the prince's ministers were very surprised. Fang Cai Zhen Guogong strongly supported Dai Wang Jiazhu, it stands to reason that he should refute He Xianghe Taishi's words, why did he agree with He Xianghe Taishi's words so easily.

When Emperor Wu of Zhou heard this, he straightened up and said, "Since you all agree to add beads on behalf of the king, then this matter will end here, and I will not mention it again in the future." ”

When the people of Xuanping Hou and his party heard Emperor Wu of Zhou say this, they immediately kowtowed and shouted: "The emperor is wise!" ”

The people of the Zhenguo Gong Party seemed to feel pity, but they still shouted "The Emperor is Wise" with the people of the Xuanping Hou Party.

"Father, can the sons and daughters go out of the city in the afternoon to welcome the triumph of the acting king?" The prince asked again.

Emperor Wu of Zhou sat back on the dragon chair, "Since you want to go, then go." ”

"Thank you, Father."

Emperor Wu of Zhou suddenly thought of something, and said, "Take the third child and a few of them together." ”

The crown prince said: "Yes, father." ”

Emperor Wu of Zhou sat cross-legged on the dragon chair, his hands in his wide sleeves, and his gaze swept nonchalantly to a minister. He suddenly thought of something, raised his hand and patted his knee, and asked, "Kong Taichang, I remember that you have a daughter who is about to die, don't you?" ”

When Kong Tai often heard this, his heart tightened, and a sense of foreboding came to his heart. He stubbornly stepped out, "If you go back to the emperor, the minister's little daughter will be in the next month." ”

When the other ministers heard Emperor Wu of Zhou ask Kong Taichang this, they all wondered in their hearts whether the emperor wanted to give Kong Taichang's daughter a marriage. Which prince does the emperor want to marry Kong Taichang's daughter, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Acting King have already married. The only prince of the same age as Kong Taichang's youngest daughter is only the third prince. However, last year, the emperor had given marriage to the three princes. Could it be that the emperor wants to give Kong Taichang's youngest daughter to the third prince as a side concubine?

The three princes have the support of the Wang family behind them, and if the emperor gives Kong Taichang's youngest daughter to the three princes, it will be for the Kong family to support the Wang family.

For a while, the ministers looked at Anyang Hou with envious eyes.

An Yanghou didn't have any waves on the surface, but he was excited in his heart. If the emperor really gave Kong Taichang's youngest daughter to the third prince as a side concubine, then the three princes would get the support of the Kong family, and they would be like a tiger with wings.

Kong Taichang is a descendant of the sage Confucius, and the Confucian family has a very lofty position in the hearts of scholars all over the world. It is no exaggeration to say that with the support of the Confucian family, it is equivalent to waiting for the support of more than half of the world's scholars.

When His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Acting King got married, Emperor Wu of Zhou did not give the daughter of the Kong family to them. The ministers speculated that Emperor Wu of Zhou did not want the Kong family to be implicated in the royal family, but they did not expect that now the emperor would marry the youngest daughter of the Kong family to the third prince, which is really unpredictable.

Zhenguo Gong and Xuanping Hou both frowned, and their faces were not very good-looking.

Kong Taichang was reluctant to let his daughter marry into the royal family, let alone let the Kong family participate in the struggle between the princes.

"The daughter of your Kong family is quite famous and is a model for women in the world."

Hearing Emperor Wu Zhou's praise, Kong Taichang not only did not have the slightest joy, but beat the drum in his heart.

"Your Majesty, you have praised it falsely, the daughter of the Kong family is no different from the daughter of an ordinary family. Moreover, the minister's youngest daughter was spoiled by the minister, she didn't like to read much on weekdays, and she had no rules, and her temperament was arrogant and willful, and she really couldn't afford the emperor's praise. ”

"Kong is too often modest, and the children of your Kong family have taught very well." Emperor Wu of Zhou smiled and said, "The daughter of your Kong family begs for a hundred families, I want to beg for your youngest daughter for my son today, and I want to be in-laws with you, I don't know if Kong Taichang is willing?" ”

And so it was!

The ministers exclaimed in their hearts at the same time.

Kong Taichang smiled bitterly in his heart, but he showed a flattered expression on his face: "Your Majesty, this is the minister's honor, but the minister's youngest daughter is too stubborn and really unworthy of being the princess." ”

Emperor Wu of Zhou waved his hand and said, "I feel that the daughter of your Kong family is very good, so you should not be humble anymore." The acting king does not have a side concubine, so I will give your little daughter to the acting king in marriage and be the side concubine of the acting king. “

As soon as he said this, the whole house was in an uproar. The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty showed shocked expressions, unable to believe what they had just heard.

Kong Taichang was directly stunned, and forgot to knock on Longen.

Zhen Guogong's face changed greatly, and his eyes widened. And the prince directly turned white, looking like he had suffered a heavy blow.

Xuan Pinghou was stunned at first, just like the others, and then had an ecstatic smile on his face.

He Xiang and Liu Taishi were also shocked by Emperor Wu Zhou's marriage. The emperor didn't agree to add beads to the acting king, why did he want to marry Kong Taichang's youngest daughter to the acting king as a side concubine in a blink of an eye? What kind of play is the emperor going to sing?

Zhenguo Gong panicked, and he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty ......"

As soon as he spoke, he was interrupted by Emperor Wu of Zhou raising his hand: "Kong Taichang, are you unwilling to be in-laws with me?" ”

Kong Taichang only woke up at this time, and his heart was still shocked.

"The minister is willing, thank the emperor for the marriage." At this time, Kong Taichang's mind was in chaos, and his heart was also in chaos. He didn't understand why the emperor would give his youngest daughter to the acting king.

The ministers who supported the acting king were ecstatic at the moment. In their opinion, the emperor gave Kong Taichang's youngest daughter to the acting king in marriage, which was to help the acting king get the support of most of the scholars in the world. In recent years, what the king lacks most is the support of the world's reading. The emperor is paving the way for the acting king.

Compared with Jiazhu, this marriage is the most beneficial to the king.

The emperor did not agree to add beads to the acting king, they thought that the emperor felt that the acting king's merits were high, and wanted to frustrate the acting king's spirit, but they didn't expect the emperor to directly give Kong Taichang's youngest daughter to the acting king. Sure enough, the emperor still values the acting king the most.

"Are you all else?"

The ministers were stunned by the marriage just now, even if they had something to start, they didn't have the heart at this time.

Seeing that the ministers had nothing to do, Emperor Wu of Zhou stood up and left.

"Retreat!"

After Emperor Wu of Zhou left, the hall immediately became lively.

The ministers of the party of the acting king congratulated the Marquis of Xuanping, while the ministers of the prince's party anxiously asked what was going on with the prince of Zhenguo.

The crown prince had a gloomy face, and his heart was full of anger. He gritted his back molars and clenched his hands into fists.
