Chapter 15: The Prince of the Prison Kingdom
Gonggong Li put the pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the tray and asked Yuwen Chengshun to take the pen instead of the emperor.
When the old emperor saw that there was nothing in the holy decree, he asked Gonggong Li to cover the jade seal.
Li Chengyun confirmed that the holy decree was in line with the Great Qin edict, took out the cabinet seal from his bosom, and stamped it under the jade seal.
The Great Qin Emperor's decrees on the government and the local government need to go through two procedures. One is the emperor's jade seal, and the other is the cabinet seal. A decree cannot be called a decree without a cabinet seal, but a decree.
It is a major matter of the court and politics to let the crown prince supervise the country, and it naturally needs to be confirmed by the cabinet.
Gonggong Li held the holy decree in both hands and let the old emperor read it again, and then walked out of the main hall to read the holy decree.
Outside the Qianqing Palace, a noble woman wearing a golden dress and a purple and gold phoenix crown was furious.
"Presumptuous, this palace is a concubine canonized by His Majesty himself. Now, by His Majesty's will, go in and serve. Do you dare to stop this palace because you don't want to live? The woman's slender jade finger pointed at the forbidden army blocking in front of her and asked sharply.
The guard hurriedly bowed: "Guifei Niangniang, the subordinates are also acting on orders, and no one can be allowed to enter without an order." Please also ask Niang Niang Haihan. ”
No matter who you face, the guards are these two sentences, and if you can't enter, you can't enter.
"You ......" Yang Guifei's body trembled, and her face was blue and strangled the other party.
She is the most powerful woman in the palace, not the queen but in charge of the six palaces. Now that she was blocked by a guard outside the Qianqing Palace, how could she not be angry.
"This king doesn't matter who you are, now I order you to get out of the way. Otherwise, when this king sees his father in a while, he will definitely make you look good. "A boy about ten years old, seeing that his mother was angry, pointed at the guards and threatened.
The guards still looked like that: "Your Royal Highness the Eighth Prince, it's not that your subordinates won't let you in, but where your responsibilities lie, and we don't dare to disobey the will of the crown prince." ”
"Presumptuous!" Yang Guifei was even more angry. "The main palace is in charge of the six palaces, and the prince's east palace is under the jurisdiction of the main palace. His crown prince's order can't stop the palace. Get out of the way! ”
In the past five years, the old emperor has favored her alone, but it is a pity that the old emperor is useless and unable to give birth to a prince. can only take the eighth prince who lost his mother into his knees, hoping to support him to ascend to the crown prince.
I didn't think that the prince's illness would be cured today, and the emperor would let him supervise the country. How could Yang Guifei sit still and want the old emperor to change his mind. Unexpectedly, she came in a hurry, but she couldn't even enter the gate of the Qianqing Palace.
At this time, Gonggong Li came out of the inside, and when he saw the noise outside, he coughed.
The crowd immediately fell silent.
"Your Majesty is discussing state affairs, and you are disturbing Your Majesty by making noise outside, are you guilty?" Gonggong Li asked.
The crowd was busy and didn't dare.
Yang Guifei stepped forward and said with a smile: "Li Nei, I came to serve on the orders of His Majesty." But these dog minions dared to disobey the holy will and not let the palace enter. ”
When Gonggong Li saw Yang Guifei, he bowed slightly, with a rich smile on his face. "The slave has seen the concubine Niangniang, the concubine doesn't need to be angry, the old slave will punish them later."
"That's very good, this palace will go to see Your Majesty." A smile appeared on Yang Guifei's face, and she was about to go in with the Eighth Prince.
Gonggong Li hurriedly said: "Niangniang is slow, Your Majesty has issued a holy decree, please Niangniang will go in later." ”
As soon as the officials heard the holy decree, they all arranged their official uniforms and knelt under the steps to listen to the holy will.
When Yang Guifei heard that there was a holy decree, her heart couldn't help but be shocked. Could it be that the emperor has already made up his mind to make the crown prince unable to supervise the country.
Gonggong Li slowly opened the holy decree and shouted: "
Fengtian carried the emperor, and the edict said:
Since I ascended the throne, I have been thinking day and night, and I have been doing my best to plan for the people's livelihood of the country. Today, the holy body is tired, the prince Zhao Su is virtuous, and he has the posture of a bright monarch. Today, it is necessary to set up the crown prince Zhao Su to supervise the country.
However, I am afraid that he is not capable of doing it, and the special period is one year old. If the country prospers and prospers, it will be a permanent example. If he is unable to take care of the government, he will be deposed from the position of the prince and replaced by a virtuous person.
This edict should be obeyed by all the people of the world from now on. I treat the performance of the crown prince Zhao Su, and wait for the world to be peaceful and prosperous. Chin this. ”
When Yang Guifei heard that the crown prince was in charge of the country, her face turned pale. married the old emperor, and he was already wronged and washed his face with tears.
Is it in exchange for such a situation where nothing can be accomplished?
Just when her heart was like ashes, and when she heard that "the deadline is only one year, if you are not qualified to supervise the country, you will depose the prince and choose another meritorious", the heart that had just been dead bloomed like a flower.
The prince's mediocre, fearless, cowardly and incompetent character. She doesn't believe that she can manage the government and govern the country well.
Don't say that he is not capable, even if he is extraordinary. She also believes that the full house will not give him a chance to perform.
In short, after this holy decree was announced, all the civil and military officials were eager to try and want to depose the prince as soon as possible.
After Gonggong Li read out the holy decree, he smiled and said, "Princes take the decree." ”
Naturally, the hundred officials accepted the order very happily, and no one objected. Even Yang Guifei didn't have any opinions.
A simple gambling agreement made the three dukes and the hundred officials shut up, and it was logical to have the power to supervise the country. Gonggong Li sincerely admires the wisdom of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
"After a year, will you transform into a dragon or into a worm. The old slave will wait and see. Gonggong Li said secretly.
But what about the future, in the course of the year. Whether it is the court or the palace, or even the entire Great Qin Empire, there will be good dramas staged everywhere.
After the promulgation of the holy decree, the three princes and four ministers also walked out of the Qianqing Palace.
The crown prince held the sword of Shang Fang and accepted the audience of hundreds of officials.
Zhao Su asked them to each return, leaving only Li Chengyun and the three of them.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, I don't know what you have to do with the old ministers and others?" Yang Rucheng was suspicious, but he was not worried that the prince would retaliate against them.
If the crown prince really dares to do this, then there is no need to wait a year, and now the hundred officials can force the palace to let the emperor depose the prince.
Zhao Su raised the Shang Fang sword in his hand and said with a smile: "Three adults, Lone will go to the cabinet later." I hope that there will be no other idle people in the cabinet. ”
"Obey the order!" The three of them did not refute it.
"Congratulations to the eldest brother for becoming the prince of the prison country." The six princes congratulated with a smile.
His white teeth shone in the sunlight, like carved from white jade. It seems that Zhao Su didn't take the matter of depriving them of Zhao Su and entering the cabinet to look at the chapter at all.
If you don't know the true details of it, just look at the other party's face, I'm afraid you can really be deceived by him.
Zhao Su said: "The sixth brother is polite, and the sixth brother will need to help him vigorously in the future." ”
"The sixth brother naturally takes the eldest brother as the leader." Zhao Heng said with a smile.
"Congratulations to the eldest brother, the younger brother will retire first!" After the fourth prince Zhao Yu gave up, he hurriedly left with his guards.
Zhao Heng pointed to the direction Yang Guifei left and said, "That's Yang Guifei, my father's favorite concubine, she is now in charge of the Six Palaces, and the eldest brother should be careful." ”
"Thank you Sixth Brother for your kindness, Big Brother has written it down." Zhao Su knew that the other party wanted to let himself fight with Yang Guifei's faction, so he could sit back and reap the benefits of the fisherman.
