The emperor looked at Wei Guogong and said to Wei Guogong, "Aiqing, you have always been martial and brave, and in the past 30 years, you have fought in the south and the north, and you have made great contributions to me. Flash"

Wei Guogong didn't expect that this hot steamed bun would be thrown into his hands, he knelt on the ground, his voice was wailing, and said to the emperor, "Sage, the minister is old, after the world is long lived, the minister is willing to follow the sage above the nine heavens." ”

Wei Guogong didn't want to cause trouble, and now that the nine princes had not yet taken up the domain, he promised to deal with them when they rebelled. The meaning of his words is obvious, the emperor is going to die, and I will kill myself immediately.

The emperor looked at the princes, everyone present lowered their heads, the emperor was a little excited, and sighed, "At the beginning, the Empress Dowager Xiaoyi was so powerful, you can still assist me, pacify the universe, and reorganize the rivers and mountains." Now, can't I even find a minister who cares for my life? ”

"Holy one, please give your ministers the death penalty. The minister is outspoken and presumptuous, and there is a dirty saint to hear. However, the minister's words are like a fish in his throat, and he does not vomit or be unhappy. At the beginning, the Empress Dowager Xiaoyi was an outsider, and the ministers and other fathers were all Tianyu courtiers, so they naturally wanted to keep the country, and now, the nine princes are all the descendants of Emperor Gao, the saint is your descendant, the saint is still unwilling to cut off his fingers, how dare the ministers? Zhen Guogong remembered his father's teachings, so he risked death and said.

"The ministers are ignorant, if the saint doesn't want to have the rebellion of the Nine Kingdoms, he can only give death to the nine princes." Fu Guogong was full of big men, and he buckled his head to say this big rebellious words.

When the emperor heard this, his face turned much paler, and his voice trembled and said, "Is it all the way it can be?" ”

All the princes nodded, this is the best way, but this is also very dangerous, the prince has no son, if this kills the nine princes, then Emperor Gaozu's lineage will be broken. When the time comes, it will be another troublesome matter to re-elect the sons of the nine princes as emperors.

The only consolation of the princes is that Emperor Gao does not have many sons, and when King Wu is dead, there is only one saint. 35xs So that the saint does not have to give his brother death for the sake of the prince.

The emperor thought for a long time, this palm and the back of his hand were full of meat, let him give his son to death, how could he agree. And this prince is mediocre, if there are no princes to help, wouldn't these princes be overturned.

"That's it, that's it, it seems that the crown prince can't succeed to the throne, so I ask you again, if one of the nine princes ascends the throne, will you help wholeheartedly."

"The ministers are loyal and loyal to the power of dogs and horses."

The emperor knew in his heart that whether these people would be like this, it also depended on whether his son was reused, the emperor's question had already been asked, since these princes were unwilling to take care of the prince, then the prince might not live for the first year when he ascended the throne.

The emperor waved his hand and said to them, "You all go, this time goodbye, I am afraid it will be difficult to see each other again in this life." ”

"Why should a saint say such ominous words?"

"I've never been taboo about this, go, go, let me be quiet."

All the princes know the grief of the emperor, but they have no choice, they all have a good future, great wealth, the Yu Dynasty will not perish, they have been people for generations, they are naturally unwilling to be like the ministers, what the emperor wants, he will guarantee anything.

After the Duke of Guo retreated, Jiugong and Concubine Xian walked in, Concubine Xian looked at the emperor's face without blood, walked to the emperor's side, held the emperor's hand, and said to the emperor, "Sage, it's okay." ”

"It's okay, I've finally figured it out."

Concubine Xian didn't ask much, took out an iron ring, and said to the emperor, "Sage, you see, this is left to you by the Empress Dowager Xiaoyi." ”

The emperor looked at it, a smile appeared on his face, and said to Concubine Xian, "Yes, this is the original Emperor Gao to the queen mother, when Emperor Gao hid in the mountains because of the defeat of Huaihua Mansion, the queen mother also accompanied Emperor Gao, Emperor Gao took pity on her, so he asked people to build this iron ring, and told the queen mother that he would definitely send a gold and jade ring to the queen mother in the future." Flash"

Concubine Xian nodded, and then picked up the emperor's words, "At the beginning, the Empress Dowager Xiaoyi left it to the sage, because she wanted the sage to let you know that this world was not easy to come by, and let you keep this thousands of miles of rivers and mountains." ”

"Yes, but this ring was lost in the first year of the Constitution, and I have not found it for a long time."

Jiu Gong opened his mouth at this time and said, "It was discovered by the ministers and others when they were cleaning the camp of Concubine Xian." ”

"So, it looks like the next saint is going to be in your room." The emperor teased, and then said to Jiu Gong with a solemn expression, "This is my message, whoever wears this iron ring on in the future will be the third saint of the Dayu Dynasty." ”

Jiugong and everyone knelt on the ground and said a word.

The emperor thought for a moment and said, "Let Wen Yuan and Wen Wei come in to see me." ”

Concubine Xian also retired, and Jiugong left here, and soon the fourth prince and the tenth prince arrived at this imperial tent, and after saluting, they entered the tent and sat (if this book does not say chairs and the like, this sitting is the main sitting of the pre-Qin. In front of the emperor.

The Emperor looked at the Fourth and Tenth Princes and said to them, "I heard that there has been a bit of discord between you recently? I don't know if there is such a thing. ”

"It's just a few small contradictions, and the saint doesn't need to worry about it." The fourth prince explained first, and the tenth prince also echoed and said that there was no major incident.

When the emperor heard this, he sighed, "Whether it is a small contradiction or a big contradiction, I have high hopes for you, one of you studies literature and the other learns martial arts, and civil and military complement each other, and can help your eldest brother stabilize the world, but it's a pity that whoever makes your eldest brother useless, and he can't even be a master of success." Every time I think about this, I only hate myself for not teaching your big brother well. ”

The two princes didn't know what to say for an instant, neither comfort, nor did it seem appropriate not to comfort.

"Now, your wings are stiff, my words, your yang is against yin, your thoughts, can't I see it? It's just that I'm old and don't want to say anything. I can control you for a while, but I can't control you for a lifetime. Now I only have one thing to tell you, you are all brothers who are related by blood, and you all have the same surname and clan in this world, so what is there to fight for. ”

When the two princes heard the latter words, they chuckled, thinking in their hearts, is the emperor going to appoint someone else as the crown prince?

After the emperor asked them to retreat, he summoned the second prince, looking at the second prince, the emperor said solemnly, "Wen Su, I am going to make you the king of Zhou, you will go to Longyou to be your prince." ”

"Father, you are old now, and your sons are willing to accompany you here."

"Wen Su, Wen Su, almost all the books you read, I asked you to read Ernan, but you didn't understand it at all, and now that you go to the land of Ernan, maybe you will understand. But since you don't want me to let you be vassal early, then don't go, I'm only afraid, if you want to be a king of Zhou in the future, you won't be able to get it. ”

The emperor waved his hand and asked him to leave, summoning the three princes and the nine princes in.

"Wen Lan, I am going to crown you as the King of Lu, and after the autumn season, you will go to the Holy Mansion to become a vassal."

When the third prince was about to give thanks, the ninth prince said, "Sage, my parents are here, and I won't travel far." Now that the third brother is in the domain, he can't often visit you and the queen mother, so it's better to wait for the time being, this fiefdom is there, and he won't run. ”

The emperor looked at the three princes, and the three princes also woke up, if they were to become vassals, the throne would be completely lost.

"The son is dull, and he is willing to serve by his father's side to fulfill his filial piety."

"That's it, that's it, you don't want to go, then Wen Jun naturally doesn't want to go to the domain, it's a pity, it's a pity ......"

As the emperor spoke, he asked the third prince and the ninth prince to step down and continue to summon the fifth and sixth princes.

The emperor first said to the five princes, "Wen Xun, I want to make you the acting king." Wen Lu is the king of Wu, and as for Wen Yuan, I named him the king of Wei. Originally, I was also going to seal Wen Jun King Jing, but Wen Jun was unwilling to take the domain, if any of you two was not satisfied, you could choose King Jing. ”

The fifth prince saw that the ninth prince refused, so he also used his filial piety to guard the capital and resolutely not go to the domain.

When the fifth prince refused, he also took the hand of the sixth prince, and the sixth prince wanted to go because of the affection of the fifth prince, but in the end he chose to stay.

The emperor had long expected that they would not be willing to surrender, and said to them, "If you don't want to, don't you forget it?" I have given you all rich fiefs, and after you become vassals, you can also be a little emperor, and now since you don't want to, I won't canonize you. It's just that when the time comes, I'm afraid that your brothers, if you don't have such a good heart, you will be sealed to some miserable place, and it will be difficult to regret it. ”

The emperor asked them to leave, and then asked people to pass Yu Hui'er, and when Yu Hui'er arrived, the emperor said to Yu Hui'er, "Hui'er, after the autumn season, you can go to your food town, you have really let people build a Shuncheng courtyard there, from now on, you don't have to come to the capital." You'd better not get involved in your brother's affairs, otherwise it will catch fire and harm you when the time comes. ”

"Father, why are you saying this?"

"You are not an outsider, I have frequently dreamed of Emperor Gao in the past few days, and I know in my heart that I am afraid that I will die soon, but I still have some things to do. When the autumn season is over, I will be busy, and it will be difficult to say a few words to you. ”

After the emperor finished speaking, he said, "I know that you like that Cao Yin, and if you really like it, I will not stop it, but I am afraid that you will not be able to do so." Alas, heavenly home, heavenly home. The heavenly family is so good, but it can't help itself. Everything is predestined, and nothing is up to anyone. ”

The emperor sighed, he felt a burst of sadness, he tried his best, and in the end, there was not even a person who could support him.

The princes of the country can't be lonely, and the ministers in the court naturally can't, and this group of people, in the end, still don't let themselves be happy.

"Father, are you okay? Why are you so pale? ”
