Chapter 123: Abdication

A home cannot be left without an owner for a day, and a country cannot be without a king for a day. Although Chen Tianbao abdicated and the ministers of the humerus in the DPRK and the central government also disappeared a lot, the state apparatus of the Great Chen Imperial Court was still operating in an orderly manner. There is no chaos in the capital, and everything in the world is as usual!

Before the arrival of the new emperor Chen Tianyun to succeed to the throne, Chen Tianbao still temporarily lived in the Qianqing Palace, but he no longer needed to go to court. Since the abdication, Chen Tianbao and Angel Qi have been in retreat and cultivation in the Qianqing Palace all day, ignoring all the government and politics, and completely handing over all rights to the civil and military officials.

After the situation in the imperial court stabilized, the missing officials began to wake up from the bed in the bedroom in their mansion one after another, and went to court as usual, only to know that they had been missing for several days.

The first officials to be released were the neutral faction of the imperial court, although they were not optimistic about Chen Tianbao as emperor, but they were obviously not in the faction that supported Chen Tianyun. Seeing Chen Tianbao's willingness to abdicate, and under the persuasion of the powerful officials in the court, they quickly accepted the fact of Chen Tianbao's abdication and agreed to support Chen Tianyun, the king of Anyi.

As time passed, the remaining officials were gradually released, and they were the first to disappear and the humeral ministers who were loyal to Chen Tianbao. At this moment, the power of the government and the military are all in the hands of the faction that supports Chen Tianyuan, and they are powerless even if they are unwilling.

The last one to be released was Xu Qian. By the time he returned to the Jinluan Palace, all the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty had become a faction that supported Chen Tianyun. Coupled with Chen Tianbao's inaction, he completely withdrew from the stage of government politics.

Xu Qian was more Ren Laoli, and he was very dissatisfied with the actions of the civil and military ministers, but at this moment, he was unable to rely on his prestige to subdue the decision of the hundred officials.

Hundreds of civil and military officials brushed the team Chen Tianyun, and they have already established a new master and a dragon. If you serve the old lord again, you will be a rebellious minister and thief who has committed rebellion. It is no longer possible for them to be on Chen Tianbao's side.

The persuasion was fruitless, but Xu Qian still did not give up. In the evening, he quietly entered the Qianqing Palace, met Chen Tianbao, and talked with him in detail.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Xu Qian bowed respectfully.

Chen Tianbao frowned slightly, and did not step forward to help: "Prime Minister, this king is no longer the emperor, there is no need to make this big gift in the future!"

Xu Qian said: "Your Majesty, the old minister only recognizes the holy decree of the emperor!"

"Prime Minister, do you think I'm suitable to be the emperor?" Chen Tianbao added after asking, "Tell the truth!"

"......" Xu Qian replied after a short thought, "Not suitable!"

"This king is all down, why should the prime minister be obsessed, not to mention, the best person to inherit the throne in your mind is the third brother. Chen Tianbao said.

"Yes, the old minister really supports Chen Tianyun's accession to the throne very much in his heart. Xu Qian raised his head and knelt on the ground, "But this coup came too strangely. Since the emperor's accession to the throne, the court has four of our important ministers, and His Royal Highness King Xin has been in the martial arts.

A year ago, Chen Tianrui, the king of Haiding, showed signs of rebellion and was directly deprived of the throne and deposed as a commoner. Chen Tianyun has no chance of developing party henchmen at all, and it is impossible to buy off all the officials and create this coup d'état with his prestige alone.

In my Da Chen, there are only two people who can have such prestige and strength, and plan this coup. One is His Royal Highness Junchen, the emperor's eldest brother, which can be ruled out, and the other is Sima Chen, the envoy of the Great Qi Emperor Dynasty some time ago!"

"Then according to the prime minister's opinion, the mastermind behind this palace coup d'état should be the eldest brother of this king, or Sima Chen?" Chen Tianbao was neither angry nor refuted, and he looked unfazed, which made people feel unfathomable.

Xu Qian said: "The old minister thought that this palace coup was planned by Sima Chen nine times out of ten!"

"How can you see it?" said Chen Tianbao.

"A person as strong as Sima Chen can actually be in Dachen, and his duty is divided into officials for 20 years. There's definitely a conspiracy, and it's huge!

He can not hesitate to expose it, drink back the envoy of Daqi, and help my Dachen tide over the difficulties, which shows that his purpose of staying in Dachen should be basically achieved, or it can still be completed without him continuing to hide. After he disappeared without a trace, within a few days, court officials loyal to the emperor slowly disappeared at the beginning. ”

When Xu Qian spoke, his eyes kept observing Chen Tianbao, and the more he observed, the more he found that the person in front of him seemed to be very different.

"The prime minister's analysis is the truth, and he is worthy of being my minister of the humerus, and then what?" Chen Tianbao is still unwavering, as if the sky is collapsing, and it has nothing to do with me.

Xu Qian said: "In fact, after Sima Chen left, the old minister sent someone to investigate thoroughly, and all the information related to it could be found. When the old minister appointed the new members of the imperial court, he deliberately avoided the officials who had been in contact with him, avoided the officials who acted in similar ways, and even the officials who were admitted at the same time. ”

"Oh?" Chen Tianbao's face finally rippled, a little surprised, and Xu Qian's gaze also had some other colors.

It's a pity that the old minister was thinking a lot, but he was clever and mistaken, and finally avoided all the officials who had no contact with Sima Chen. Otherwise, now the old minister may still have a chance to reverse this coup. Xu Qian sighed.

"The prime minister doesn't have to blame himself, you can't reverse the outcome of this coup. Chen Tianbao said.

"Your Majesty, to be honest, the old minister really can't figure it out, at the beginning, you could do whatever it takes for the sake of Angel Qi, even if it is broken bones, you have to fight the envoy of the Great Qi Emperor Dynasty to the end. On that day, when the ministers forced the palace, why didn't the emperor resist? With the strength of all the people, it should be very simple to subdue them with strength. Xu Qian said.

Chen Tianbao said: "I don't know what conspiracy Sima Chen has. Maybe forcing me to abdicate and supporting Chen Tianyun to ascend the throne is one of the links he is trying to do in my Da Chen. On the day of forcing the palace, there were three powerhouses of the realm of the Know-how, who controlled my Dachen Bingquan, and jointly came to the Qianqing Palace to force me to abdicate, and there was also a Know-how Realm on the queen mother's side.

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight, this weight of the world's common life, too hard! I didn't want to be an emperor in the first place, so I just took this opportunity to push the boat down the river and abdicate to make way for the virtuous. ”

"But the emperor, are we just like this, hand over my Dachen Jiangshan to others? Even if Chen Tianyun ascends the throne, the actual ruler of this Dachen is not Sima Chen?" Xu Qian looked worried, but he couldn't do anything.

"Don't worry, Da Chen Jiangshan is still surnamed Chen, this will not change, even if there may be some changes for the time being, but the future of the world is still ours! Chen Tianbao was full of confidence, got up and gave an eviction order, "Prime Minister, please go back!"

"Your Majesty, you have become different. Xu Qian stood up and his eyes flashed, as if he had found a priceless treasure.

"Huh. Chen Tianbao smiled and ignored it, "Qi'er, send off guests!"
