Chapter 34: The New King is Discussed
The officials were eye-opening today, and when they came, they never dreamed that they would meet a crazy king. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info A few unlucky ones haven't reacted yet, and they have been stabbed to the ground by Jing Er. The rest of the guys also scattered and fled, and Jing Er rushed to wherever he went. Where the courtiers are scattered!
Zhao Gao saw that Jing Er was almost crazy, and with a wave of his hand, several skilled chamberlains rushed out. The two of them held the long sword in Jing Er's hand, and pinched Jing Er's wrist with their hands. The long sword in Jing Shuang's hand couldn't hold it, and it fell to the ground with a "dang long" sound. The attendants rushed up and tied Jing Er like a rice dumpling with a red lingzi.
"Childe, Lieutenant! You have all seen it, and the king has gone mad. When you see someone, you cut it, and the Prime Minister and the Imperial Doctor were ...... in this situation! Of course, slaves and maids also have the responsibility to protect the unfavorable. Seeing Jing Er being captured, Zhao Gao hurriedly came to Gongzi Ying and Feng Quji.
"Hey......! The Great King is suffering from this evil disease, which is really the misfortune of my Great Qin. Seeing Jing Er howling and being carried into the main hall, Gongsun Long shook his head helplessly, and his tone was full of desolation.
"The king is suffering from a vicious disease, has he ever seen it as a doctor?" Feng Quji had just been cut in the leg by Jing Er, and now he still had palpitations when he thought about it.
"Imperial Doctor......! Four have already been killed by the king, and now there is no imperial doctor in Ganquan Palace. After a while, the slave and maid will find someone who knows a little medical skills to bandage the adult, hey......! Speaking of this, Zhao Gao sighed again.
Feng Qujian was also speechless, he really didn't expect that even the imperial doctor would be poisoned. It seems that the king's tyrannical problem is really a lot of killing, and his father and Ying Ao must have been killed by the king in this situation. Originally, my heart was full of resentment, but now I really want to cry without tears. The dignified Prime Minister of Qin and the imperial envoy were actually killed by a madman. The most helpless thing is that this madman is still King Qin. makes people owe even a chance to take revenge!
"Lieutenant, Childe! The most important thing now is to stabilize the situation and ......! Gongsun Long was talking, when he suddenly saw a small chamberlain coming over and whispering a few words to Zhao Gao. Zhao Gao's eyes suddenly widened, and he looked at the little chamberlain with some disbelief, and said hurriedly: "What? You said that the eldest prince and the king of Meng Tian Taiwei committed suicide? ”
After listening to Zhao Gao's words, Gongziying and Feng Qujian were both taken aback. They never expected that the eldest sons, Fusu and Meng Tian, would really be edicted. This is a bit of a big deal, I was counting on the king's appearance, and asked Fusu to come back to supervise the country. Now I'm afraid that I have to find a sacrifice and summon the soul of Fusu.
"This ......! The old man originally wanted to say that let the eldest son return to Xianyang. If the king's illness has been like this, there is only one way to go to Zen. Who knows......! The country can't be without a king for a day, Gongzi, you are a royal family, you see what should be done. Gongsun Long said to Gongzi Ying.
Gongzi Ying was originally an idealess, and was publicly recommended by everyone as the leader of the petition, also because he was a bitter master. Now let him take a charter, how can he have that courage. What's more, now the courtiers who were hacked to death and slashed behind him were shouting, which made him even more confused. Where do you have the heart to think about what to do at this time?
"Mr. has always been by the king's side to assist in the affairs of the country, I don't know what Mr. thinks?" Gongzi Ying's heart is in turmoil, but she can't lose her child's face. I can only say that the ball was kicked to Gongsun Long!
Gongsun Long smiled secretly in his heart: What I am waiting for is your words!
"The current situation seems to show that the hope of the king's recovery is very slim. Even if it does, it will probably take a long time. You can't live without a king for a day, the old man's meaning is still Zen. Among the princes of the king, choose a virtuous man to become the new king. Since there are so many courtiers here today, please discuss with the courtiers who have sorted out and recommend which prince to succeed to the throne. Now the people of Xianyang are panicking, and the news has not yet spread to those newly conquered counties. The imperial court must quickly cut through the mess and handle this matter quickly. It will not be that those counties that are newly included in the territory of Daqin will not be subordinate. "According to the current situation, what Gongsun Long said can be described as golden and jade. Anyone with a modicum of political common sense knows that he is right.
The most ingenious thing is that Gongsun Long didn't say which son he recommended. Instead, it was recommended by the officials here to pick themselves clean. In the future, even if someone inquires, they can push things off.
Feng Quji and Gongzi Ying glanced at each other, and what Gongsun Long said was feasible. There are a lot of officials who came today, and the three princes are no longer there. Jiuqing came with three, plus more than 200 officials at all levels. This lineup is enough for a court meeting, and it seems that it is okay to recommend the new king.
"Did you send a fast horse to invite the rest of the Shangqing to discuss together?" Gongziying said with some hesitation.
"Childe can't! You see that this place is like a pot of porridge, and it is hard to guarantee that the news of the king's madness will leak out. Now only by determining the candidate for the new monarch as soon as possible can we quickly calm down the people's hearts. Moreover, the new king was chosen by the officials, and no matter where he started, the courtiers could only support him. Childe, you can't let the news leak out! Once it leaks out, the young people of all countries are ready to move, and my great Qin is in danger! Gongsun Long immediately objected.
"Hmmm! The news of the king's madness is really not suitable to spread, if you wait for Jiuqing any longer, I am afraid that you will miss a big thing. Childe is still here to preside over it, and then the person who has made this Zen let be selected. Otherwise, God knows what else can happen under the rumors. Feng Qujian also persuaded.
"Childe, you don't know. The king sent Meng Yi to Shuzhong because there was an urgent report. It is said that the filial piety queen of Bashu and Chang Wenjun had a close relationship with the Chu State, and there were faint signs of rebellion. If the news of the madness of the Great King spreads, I am afraid that the Empress of Filial Piety will be the first to ally with the Chu State, and then rebel against my Great Qin. The Golden Bull Road is steep, as long as the Golden Bull Road is sealed. It will be difficult for our army to pass, and Bashu is the granary of my Great Qin. Once something happens to Bashu, the soldiers in front of my Great Qin will fall into a desperate situation of having no food. Zhao Gao also persuaded at this time.
"Good! Since the gentlemen have said so, I will preside over it. Let the hundred officials jointly recommend the candidate for the new king, I think the number of hundreds of officials here is enough to recommend the candidate for the king. Hearing everyone say this, Gongziying also relented. At the same time, I also understood what it was from the dragon's work. This is the greatest skill from the dragon! No matter which son comes to power in the future, will he forget this cousin who presided over the public meeting? Thinking of this, Gongziying's heart came alive.
By this time, the chaos below is over. Two guys had bad luck and were stabbed to death by Jing Er. The remaining five or six people are all in different degrees of hands. Now they were all carried into the side hall to rest, and the commotion began to quiet down. Gongsun Long arched his hand at Gongzi Ying, and then motioned for Gongzi Ying to speak. He was recommended by everyone to be the head of the petitioning group, and now he is rightly speaking.
"Ahem!" Looking at the crowd of black pressure below, Gongziying couldn't help coughing dryly. After thinking about the wording, he said: "Everyone is the pillar of the imperial court, and everyone has seen it just now. The king has gone mad and can no longer act as the ruler of the court. Now, in the name of the royal family, this prince has called on all officials to unanimously recommend a son under the knees of the king to become the new king.
I hope that all the ministers will work together for the country, select virtuous and capable people, and become the new monarch of my Great Qin. Lead your ministers to achieve immortal achievements. In the annals of Qingshu, there will also be a lot of strokes. After Gongziying finished speaking, she looked at the ministers, and on the square of the main hall of the huge Ganquan Palace, there was no one who spoke.
Today is really shocking, and it started to be the king going crazy. Now there is a public discussion to recommend which son to succeed to the throne, as long as it is the right choice, it is from the dragon's work. In the future, if the king recommended by himself sits in the country, he will not be able to run away from this first meritorious service.
Some people are already gearing up, and many more are thinking hard.
"The eldest son, Fusu, has a valuable character, and he is the eldest son of the king. Now in the northwest, he and Taiwei Meng Tian are fighting against the Pingliang rebels, and he has made many military achievements. If it is said that the inheritance of the unification accepts the king's Zen concession, I think that the eldest son Fusu is the most qualified. "I don't need to ask to know that he is a military general, and it must be a member of Meng Tian's family.
"The old man seconded it!" This kind of thing, as long as someone starts with it, someone will inevitably follow suit. Besides, what people said is right, among the sons left by Jing Er, only Fusu is about to become an adult. The rest are still children, especially the youngest Hu Hai, who is not yet ten years old this year. Do you expect a ten-year-old doll to inherit such a big Qin Jiangshan? What happened to Zhao Ji back then is still fresh in people's memories, but I don't dare to do that again.
Forty or fifty people immediately jumped out of the scene to second, and Gongsun Long and Zhao Gao glanced at each other. It seems that the Meng family is still quite powerful in the imperial court, and these people should be remembered. Except for the few leading parties who took the lead in speaking, the rest must be removed one by one. It will definitely allow the opposition forces to exist in the Great Qin Imperial Court for a day.
"Uh......!" Gongziying and Feng Qujian were a little embarrassed, and looked back at Zhao Gao and Gongsun Long. Seeing that the call for recommending Fusu on the spot is getting higher and higher, my heart is full of helplessness about the cruel reality. What do you say to these people? Could it be that it is said openly that the eldest son, Fusu and Taiwei Mengtian, were given to death by Jing Er's confused will? And these two two hundred and five have not been verified, so they were really called to kill themselves? Electing such a second goods as the king of Qin, the future of Great Qin is really worthy of public opinion.
"Princesses......!" Seeing that the two of them hesitated and didn't speak, Zhao Gao jumped out decisively. He pressed his palm against the increasingly enthusiastic crowd and said, "Princess! The news just came from the Imperial Lieutenant Office that the eldest son and the Taiwei were ordered to die by the king? Now he has committed suicide in the Northwest Battalion! ”
As soon as Zhao Gao said this, the crowd suddenly fell silent. In the team of hundreds of people, there was no one who spoke. The team was horribly quiet, and it was really a pin drop.
The silence didn't last long, and the crowd exploded like a volcanic eruption. The boiling crowd was going crazy, something like this was not only unheard of, but also unseen for all eternity. The mad king actually sent someone to kill his own son, plus one of the most important generals. Some people didn't believe in the king just now, but now almost everyone believes. This king is really crazy!
"Quiet! Be quiet! Feng Qujian saw that the crowd below was boiling, and there seemed to be signs of an outbreak. Immediately came forward to suppress him, and he presided over the judicial affairs of Daqin for many years. Authority is not ordinary, and as soon as he stood up and spoke, many people immediately stopped clamoring. Even those who were indignant slowly closed their mouths and listened to what Feng Quji had to say.
"The king is immoral! This matter will be discussed later, and now we want to talk about the future of Great Qin. Ladies and gentlemen! Today's public election of the successor can be related to the future of Daqin. I hope that all the gentlemen will focus on Daqin, and it will not be too late to discuss the details in the future! ”
After Feng Qujian finished speaking, no one immediately made a sound below. When someone's father died, they all said that the king would be elected first. Daddy's death is a trivial, and Fusu's death is naturally not a big deal. Who can still regard Fusu and Meng Tian as more important than Dad.
The scene was cold again, and it took a long time before someone stood up and said: "Since the eldest son is dead, the old man elects the younger son Hu Hai!" ”
This time, there was no scene of servants gathering, and the scene of hundreds of people was quiet again. A few of the leading parties just wanted to stand up, but Gongsun Long suggested that they wait for a while.
Everyone knows what it means for Hu Hai to be on the throne! This little boy is nothing in himself, just a clever little brat! But his grandmother's family is really tight, Pingliangyun's family! That was the opponent who posed the greatest threat to Great Qin now, and Taiwei Meng Tian and Fusu led an army of 400,000 troops to camp in the northwest, just to fight against Pingliang Yunkey. Now that Hu Hai is the king, what is the status of the Pingliang Cloud Key General?
Yun Key has not entered Xianyang for many years, and many new officials have not even seen it. Even in the eyes of some people, Cloud Key is a person who can smoke in his mouth and breathe fire in his eyes. Eight feet tall, and the waist circumference is also a monster of eight feet. The older Xianyang people still remember Yun Key, but they can only remember that every time Yun Key returns from an expedition, he carries a mountain of people. The name of Pinglianghou is really stained red with blood.
More people, when they mention the cloud key, they always think of exquisite glassware. Comfortable cotton fabrics, a wide variety of food, wine and fresh gadgets. Although he has been in confrontation with Pingliang for two years, there is no shortage of these things to sell in Xianyang City. As long as they see these things, people will unconsciously think of the Pingliang Yun family.
Looking at the silence below, suddenly Feng Qujian stood up. Lang said: "The old man seconded the proposal, and the son Hu Hai has a valuable character. Mrs. Yun has been in the palace for many years and runs the inner palace in an orderly manner. The old man is willing to assist his son Hu Hai as the new monarch and create an immortal foundation for my Great Qin. ”
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
……
As soon as Feng Quji said this, the leading party under Gongsun Long could not bear it, and immediately jumped out to second!
