Chapter 779 Supporting the Emperor's eldest son

What does it mean to not be immediate? The hall suddenly exploded, and there were those who were calm, those who were surprised, those who were happy, and those who were full of fear.

After all, at this time, the Chu Party was still an emerging group with the concept of governing the country, pursuing the rejuvenation of the Ming Dynasty, implementing political reforms, and eliminating the evils of the government and the opposition.

The revival of the Ming Dynasty and the realization of reform are the consensus of many Chu parties, but the rebellion is not, they support Wang Yan, and Wang Yan can undertake this mission, but what does "not stand" mean?

Seeing this, Wang Yan needed to control it, he pressed his hand and said, "Quiet, listen to Gu Buqing!" ”

Many people in the hall who were ready to express their opinions sat down one after another, and as the leader of the party and the main domain, his prestige was still sufficient.

Gu Yanwu and the others quieted down, and then bowed to Wang Yan and the many Chu Party members in the hall, "Your Highness, colleagues. The Tang and Lu domains are now at loggerheads, and neither of them is willing to give in, so this great unification cannot be established, and there may even be internal strife. This is not good for the world. If His Royal Highness wants to mediate and maintain the stability of the imperial court, he can only try to make a compromise between the two feudal clans and come up with a result that is acceptable to the three families. ”

Litang, King Lu opposed, Lilu, King Tang opposed, both parties insisted, then they couldn't play, and they had to break up.

In this way, you can only choose another person who can be accepted by both clans.

Many officials listened and whispered, but Wang Yan said: "Gu Buqing has a strategy to solve the current dilemma, which is acceptable to all three parties. ”

Gu Yanwu listened to Wang Yan's previous words, and he had already understood what Wang Yan meant, he did not hesitate, "Your Highness, I think that only by supporting the eldest son of the emperor can we compound the interests of all parties and achieve a compromise." ”

Why not King Gui, the reason is very simple, King Gui is now completely in the hands of Wang Yan, Wang Yan wants to establish Gui, the two feudal domains will only think that he wants to monopolize the government, Wang Yan himself does not compromise, how can the two feudal domains compromise.

After they ascended the throne, Wang Yan had no excuse not to let them participate in national politics, and the officials who supported the royal family and conservative factions would soon gather around the new emperor, and Wang Yan would inevitably have to rub friction with the new emperor, so it was not in the interests of Wang Yan that the two ascended the throne.

Longwu means that he doesn't want the eldest son of the emperor to become a powerful minister, the puppet of the emperor's uncle, so he doesn't want the eldest son of the emperor to take over the throne and pass it directly to the king of Tang, and he also once told Wang Yan to take good care of the eldest son of the emperor and let the eldest son of the emperor be an ordinary prince, but Wang Yan can't follow Longwu's wishes.

"The eldest son of the emperor? Can King Tang and King Lu agree? ”

Everyone in the hall listened to Gu Yanwu's words, and after being quiet for a while, Yan Qiheng got up and asked.

Wang Yan looked at Gu Yanwu and motioned for him to continue.

"Yan Butang, support the emperor's eldest son, first of all, it will be of great benefit to His Royal Highness, the emperor's eldest son is young, His Royal Highness's prestige is enough to regent, our faction can control the imperial court for more than ten years, concentrate on dealing with the Qing court, and reform the malpractices." Gu Yanwu said first, this is exactly Wang Yan's fourth requirement.

Wang Yan put this article in the fourth, but as a staff member and confidant, he had to understand his thoughts, but in fact, the order of the four articles was completely reversed.

This article naturally also compounds the interests of many officials of the Chu Party, and they follow Wang Yan, naturally hoping to have the opportunity to implement their ambitions, obtain a high position, and establish a little prince, which is indeed the best choice.

Gu Yanwu continued: "Next, it is the question of whether the two kings of Tang and Lu can accept the little prince. Let's talk about the Tang King first, he is supported by the ministers who support the Tang Dynasty, the elders of the pavilion such as Su, Chen, Wan, and Gu, as well as several powerful towns such as Zheng Guo and Jin Shenghuan. The reason why the pro-Tang faction supported the Tang Dynasty was because they needed the Tang Dynasty to compete with the King of Lu and ensure their own interests, and the second was because the emperor's eldest son was young, and the lord was suspicious and could not suppress the King of Lu and even King Gui, so they chose to support the Tang King to compete for the throne. Now that the Tang King and the Lu King are fighting, no one can suppress anyone, if His Royal Highness supports the emperor's eldest son to inherit the unification and supports the ministers of the Tang faction, it is very likely to accept this result. ”

Wang Yan nodded, if the resistance to King Tang's ascension to the throne is too great, and the pro-Tang faction retreats to the second, the possibility of choosing the eldest son of the emperor is still very great, but in this way, King Tang must be very dissatisfied and will hold a grudge against Wang Yan.

The people in the hall did not refute, and Wang Yan urged when he saw this: "What about King Lu? ”

"King Lu can't even suppress King Tang, His Royal Highness doesn't support King Lu, King Lu will definitely not be able to compete for the throne, but for King Lu, King Tang will definitely not be allowed to ascend the throne. The Tang Dynasty is in full bloom, if he ascends to the treasure, he must do it himself in political affairs, plus the court, there is already His Royal Highness, the internal pattern of the Ming Dynasty is that there are two strong and one weak, and the Lu Fan has no place to stand, so the Lu Fan will definitely strive and will not back down. But if the eldest son of the emperor ascends the throne and the emperor cannot govern the government, the pattern in the court is one strong and two weak, as long as His Royal Highness compromises a little weaker and gives up some benefits to the Lu family, a compromise can be reached. ”

The current situation is that if the Tang Dynasty is dissatisfied, the Lu King is dissatisfied, the Li Lu King and the Tang King are dissatisfied, and if these two parties cannot compromise, they may have to learn from the Manchu Qing in the north to pick a young man who has no strength to come out, and then let the Tang and Lu feudal domains continue to maintain containment and balance, which is in the interests of Wang Yan.

Wang Yan had already decided, but he also wanted to unify the opinions within the Chu Party, so he said: "What do you think? ”

The ministers in the hall were silent for a while, and Yan Qiheng stood up and arched his hand: "As long as the two feudatories don't fight and maintain the stability of the court, I think it's feasible to humble myself." ”

Everyone listened and nodded.

Seeing this, Wang Yan immediately said: "Since this is the case, Gu Buqing will go to Jiangxi and welcome Empress Zeng and the emperor's eldest son to Nanjing. ”

Gu Yanwu was about to receive the order, but Chen Bangyan stood up and stretched out his hand to stop, "Wait!" He arched his hand to Wang Yan, and then said: "Your Highness, the queen and the eldest son of the emperor, under the protection of the pro-Tang faction, Gu Buqing may not be able to meet it, but it will cause the disgust of the pro-Tang faction, thinking that His Royal Highness has been planning for a long time." I thought it was better to wait for the three parties to reach an agreement before making a decision. ”

Wang Yan listened to it and said like a stream, "Then wait for the tripartite consultation and then go to greet it." However, this matter cannot be delayed for too long, and a meeting will be held tomorrow to settle the matter with the two feudatories. ”

The discussion was settled, Wang Yan waved his hand to let people retreat, he basically didn't have a good rest these days.

Although he has already discussed a countermeasure, Tang and Lu are only afraid that they are also planning at this time, and they may not listen to him, and there will definitely be a big battle to fight tomorrow.

Today is the Tang and Lu feudal clans fighting each other, and tomorrow it may be that he is angry with the two kings, so he needs to recuperate.

The officials and generals in the hall exited the hall one by one, Wang Yan rubbed his head, and was about to get up, but suddenly saw Yu Taichu walking in against the crowd who went out.
