Chapter 297: Heart Gate (1)
There were several candlesticks burning in the dormitory, as bright as day, and they could see each other's faces clearly.
Xu Jing was silent for a moment before replying in a low voice: "My cousin suddenly fell ill, and I was heartbroken and shocked. I was completely shocked by the words that I said afterwards, and even now, I feel at a loss, and there is some indescribable excitement and joy. It's too hypocritical to say that the cousin is blamed. ”
Who doesn't want to sit on that dragon chair above 10,000 people?
The prince was amused by Xu Jing's honesty, and the corners of his mouth raised: "You don't blame me for making my own decisions." In fact, as early as Jizhou, I began to think about this matter. I haven't told you all the time, I just want to take another look and wait. ”
"I thought I had a few years left to sit down and push you into this position as a matter of course. I never thought that today's heart attack suddenly occurred, and I almost died in the west. ”
"I don't know if I'll have such good luck the next time I have a heart attack. Therefore, today I speak to my father in front of all the ministers. With the temper of his father, he will definitely not respond. ”
"It doesn't hurt either. It is not a trivial matter to establish the emperor's younger brother, and the father always has to think about it slowly. All the courtiers had to be given time to get used to the acceptance. Today is a great start. ”
The information revealed by these words is too huge.
Xu Jing was a little dazed for a while, and subconsciously grasped the most obvious question: "Why did my cousin have this idea in Jizhou?" What happened I don't know? ”
The prince's eyes were complicated, his expression was dark, and he was silent for a long time before he whispered: "Tonight, you must not tell anyone what I say to you, even if your crescent sister asks, you can't say a word." ”
Xu Jing twisted his sword eyebrows and thought for a while: "Then forget it." I'm in front of my crescent sister, and I've never had a secret. Don't talk about it, cousin! ”
Prince: "......"
The prince couldn't cry or laugh, he had no strength to lose, otherwise, he might have to punch Xu Jing: "I'll talk to you about business, don't gag." ”
Xu Jing grinned first, quickly restrained his smile, and said seriously: "My cousin is still so young, and the days in the future will be very long. There are two side concubines in the East Palace, and maybe the good news will come out soon. When the cousin has an heir and a grandson, this country will be passed on naturally. ”
"I swear to the imperial brother that I will do my best to assist the grandson in the future."
The prince smiled bitterly and stopped Xu Jing, who was about to make a poisonous oath: "I can trust you, you don't have to swear." I won't have a son, though. ”
Xu Jing's eyebrows jumped, and he vaguely guessed something.
Sure enough, the prince said the unspeakable facts in a low voice: "More than half a year ago, I had an illness in Jizhou. Doctor Wan told me that I was born with a heart disease, so I should not do any drastic actions, and I should keep my emotions calm and calm, and I can't be contaminated with women. ”
"Otherwise, there is a risk of death at any time."
"I married two side concubines and walked in the door, but I never touched them. Where did the heirs come from? ”
Xu Jing: "......"
I see!
The prince's strange actions have been explained!
"It's hard to talk about such things." The prince's voice was full of bitterness: "I can't tell my father, and I can't bear to tell my mother." ”
"Chunsheng, you keep this secret for me."
Xu Jing's heart was like pressing a boulder, heavy and uncomfortable: "Okay, I promise my cousin that I will be tight-lipped." ”
The prince exhaled slowly, raised his eyes and looked up, and entered the light veil tent. It seemed to be the worries that pressed on his heart, layer upon layer.
"I have been weak since I was a child and often get sick. Lay on the bed for a few months a year. The queen mother tried her best to raise me. ”
"My father is not a good emperor, he is greedy for beauty, indulges in excessive desires, does not care about the government and politics, only cares about his own pleasures, and has the mediocre appearance of a dead king. But to me, he was a good father. Almost obedient to me. What I want to do, my father has never refused. ”
"I often think about what a heavy blow it will be to my mother and father the day when I suddenly close my eyes and go west. They simply can't take it. ”
"I am not only their only son, but also the crown prince of the Great Jin Dynasty. Shouldering the heavy responsibility of inheriting the country. However, my dilapidated body can no longer bear such a heavy responsibility. Chunsheng, from today onwards, I will entrust you with this important responsibility. ”
"In the future, after I leave, you will be the prince of the Great Jin Dynasty on my behalf, cherish the courtiers and the people, and continue the great Jin Dynasty."
The crown prince clenched Xu Jing's hand with a little difficulty, and his eyes were firmly fixed on Xu Jing's face: "Also, you have to honor my father and queen mother on my behalf." I know that's a bit excessive. The queen mother is virtuous, gentle and reasonable, but your father has never been very good to you, and even had the idea of killing you. It's just that he is my father in the end, and I, as a son, should honor him and support him. ”
"You have done your best for me as a son of man. Don't let your father work hard, please abdicate as soon as possible and retire for the rest of his life. ”
Xu Jing: "......"
Xu Jing never thought that he would also run out of words.
These words, the prince doesn't know how long he has been thinking about in his heart. At this time, a rush of brains poured out. Xu Jing didn't know how to deal with it at all.
Especially the last sentence, the meaning is shocking.
Seeing that Xu Jing was silent, the prince knew that he understood, his eyes flashed with relief, and he said in a low voice: "My father is a good father, but he is not a good emperor. ”
"For the sake of the country, for the people in the world to have a good life, this is the best ending."
"This matter is not easy, and it must be calculated as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, as long as I'm alive, I'll do my best to help you stand firm."
"I'm afraid your next days won't be easy. Inside and outside the palace, there will be people who will stop you. There will be countless guns and arrows aimed at you. ”
"Chunsheng, you have to hold on. You must let your father, queen and queen accept you, let all the courtiers see your excellence, and show extraordinary ability to suppress all the princes and royal relatives. Let everyone be happy and convincing to serve you as the prince of the Great Jin. ”
If you want to wear a crown, you must first accept its weight.
The hardships of a vassal king's son to inherit the throne in a righteous and bright manner can be imagined.
However, no matter how you say it, this is also a smooth road, which is much stronger than ~soldiers~making~ against the blood flowing into rivers and the destruction of human beings.
After the prince said so many words, he gasped a few times, his face became more and more pale, and his eyes still fell on Xu Jing's face, waiting for Xu Jing's response.
Xu Jing took a deep breath, his thoughts were confused, and he took another deep breath: "Cousin, I promise you." ”
The prince's eyebrows suddenly stretched, and he laughed: "Okay, I really didn't mistake you." ”
