The next day, the Great Jin Palace.

Today's palace, in the cold winter, unconsciously, has a little more solemn atmosphere.

The cold wind between heaven and earth blows on people's necks and ankles, as if it is going to be cold to the bones.

Zhou Tai'an, the king of Jin, sat in the main hall, burning the earth dragon, and looked at the vast land covered in silver outside the window.

To be honest, they are in the Great Jin Dynasty, and they do not have magnificent ancestors like Qiangaozu and Qianwu Emperor.

After being sealed by Da Chu, it has always been a duty, mediocre and mediocre.

If it's in the heyday, it's not a mistake.

But in today's troubled times, mediocrity itself is a fault!

Therefore, if the Great Jin Dynasty wants to compete in the Central Plains and even dominate the world, it will have to pay a price far beyond the rest of the vassal states.

And one of the costs of this is to defy the condemnation of the world and set up a woman as the emperor!

These days, Zhou Tai'an has been worried about this matter.

He even changed the edict many times, and hesitated between the eldest prince Zhou Xing and Princess Changping.

As an emperor, such hesitation is obviously not qualified.

At this point, Zhou Tai'an also admitted that when he was still a prince, he still had a little courage to fight for the dragon chair under him.

After being called the King of Jin, in the face of behemoths like Great Chu, Northern Yuan, and Western Qin, his little heart of hard work and enterprising has long been exhausted by time.

I just want the country to be stable.

But this is undoubtedly the greatest luxury in troubled times!

It was this extravagant hope that made him finally make up his mind to pass on the throne to Princess Changping!

He knew in his heart that a female god of war like Changping had come out like this in the Western Jin Dynasty for thousands of years!

Only such a person can break the deadlock, lead Dajin, and embark on a new path!

A road that is different from the ancestors, no longer in its own right, but dare to fight, dare to fight, dare to grab, and dare to fight!

Speaking of which, the geographical location of their Dajin is not bad.

The vein resources are extremely rich, not to mention iron ore and copper ore, which are extremely rare gold mines in other countries, and they are also everywhere in Dajin!

And this has led to the development of the iron smelting industry in Dajin!

Among the countries of the Quartet, the weapons and armor forged by the Great Jin Dynasty should be the most!

It stands to reason that with such abundant mineral resources, such advanced iron-smelting technology, and even the geographical location closest to the Central Plains among the three eastern regions, the Great Jin Dynasty should have made a career.

Not really!

For thousands of years, after more than ten generations of emperors, the Great Jin Dynasty is still this one-third of an acre, and there has never been the slightest change.

If Western Qin is a thorn in the thorn among the countries of the Quartet, although it is located in a bitter cold place, it has the heart to swallow the world, and has never given up the struggle against powerful countries such as Great Chu and Northern Yuan.

Then the Great Jin is the most obedient existence among the countries of the Quartet, and it is not an exaggeration to call it docile.

Therefore, the monarchs of the Great Chu Dynasty were very relieved of the Western Jin Dynasty, and they were not at all worried that this neighboring vassal state could pose the slightest threat to themselves.

What's more, if it weren't for the threat that the Northern Yuan might go south at all times, the Great Jin would not even be able to take out decent soldiers and horses.

This is the current Da Jin, and it is also the Da Jin of the past.

Without the heart of resistance, this is undoubtedly fatal in troubled times!

Change must have appeared!

And Changping is undoubtedly that turning point!

Passing on the throne to her, Dajin can still have a glimmer of life.

But if the throne is passed on to the great prince Zhou Xing, the Great Jin will only continue to follow the old path of the ancestors! He knew that all too well!

Because Zhou Xing is too much like him! Young and fashionable and a little bit of a fight, but it's just inward, wanting to fight for the throne.

As for the outside world, I'm afraid there will be no voice.

Such a person has become the king of Jin, what pioneering actions can he make?

But Changping is different, Changping's talent has attracted worldwide attention and is rare in the world.

But it has never been an internal fight, but an external fight!

Over the years, the Northern Yuan Dynasty has not thought about going south from the Great Jin Dynasty and completely tearing apart the defense line of the Han family.

But they were all blocked back by Changping!

Only when such a person becomes a monarch can he bring a new atmosphere and new changes to the Great Jin!

After sitting for a while, Zhou Tai'an felt a deep tiredness.

couldn't help laughing at himself: "My body is really getting worse day by day." ”

"I don't know what will happen to Dajin after I die."

As soon as these words came out, the palace maids and eunuchs around them were suddenly frightened, and they fell to their knees one after another, not daring to listen more.

Only Gonggong Liu in the crowd showed a different color on his face.

But because he was prostrate on the ground, he was not seen.

"His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince asks to see you!" At this moment, the high-pitched voice of the eunuch came from outside the hall.

"Seventh? What did he come to do? King Jin was obviously a little surprised.

According to his expectations, the boss should come to him the most at this time.

Even, with the character of the boss, it is not uncommon to be very dangerous.

But it didn't hurt, he was already prepared for this.

In the Imperial Forest Army and the capital camp, in addition to the soldiers brought by Changping to help Shanhaiguan, there are also 50,000 troops.

And as long as he is still there, the Royal Forest Army and the capital camp will not be able to mess up.

Zhou Xing has great ability, and he can't set off any waves!

And he decided to announce his decision as soon as Changping came back, so that the matter would be completely settled.

By the way, while he was still there, he subdued the dissatisfied court ministers for Changping.

In addition, there is another fatal flaw that women are emperors: they have no heirs!

If you don't have an heir, no matter how good you are, the ministers will at most obey you on the surface, but in private, they will contact the boss and do that rebellious thing.

Therefore, before leaving, you have to arrange this matter properly.

Since Changping likes Li Changkong, and this son is indeed talented, he will recruit him as a concubine and set Changping and his heirs as the next prince.

In this way, Changping's worries about succeeding to the throne will be removed, and he will be able to leave with peace of mind.

"Let the seventh in." Suddenly, King Jin came back to his senses and remembered that Zhou Ming was still waiting outside the hall, so he waved his hand and said.

After a while, Zhou Ming walked in, and there were two cooks from the imperial dining room behind him, holding a bowl of steaming ginseng soup.

Seeing this, King Jin was a little surprised, and couldn't help but say, "What is this doing?" ”

"Father, you have always been in poor health. In this cold winter, the old problem must have been committed again. ”

"As a son, you see it in your eyes, and it hurts in your heart!"

"No, Erchen spent a lot of money to find someone to search for famous mountains and rivers to find such a thousand-year-old mountain ginseng!"

"The imperial doctor told Erchen that this is a very good thing. Those who practice martial arts can save years of hard work and be full of blood after eating. ”

"Ordinary people eat it, it is also to prolong life and strengthen the body."

"It's perfect to honor my father."

When King Jin heard this, he couldn't help but smile a little, and said, "The seventh has a heart." ”

In fact, he knows his body himself, there are not many days to live, maybe in the past six months.

The twilight of a body is not something that can be saved by precious heavenly treasures.

But children have such filial piety, and parents are always happy.
