Chapter 921: Not a Crown Prince
Yan Chen didn't expect Yan Lie to say this, and after being stunned for a while, he knelt down and said, "Father, whether it is ability or reputation, the two imperial brothers are better than their sons. Besides, Erchen's mother and the Sheng family did such a thing of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country, and Erchen is really not suitable to be the prince. I also asked my father to retract such an idea. ”
Yan Chen's face didn't have the rest of his expression, and he said lightly: "What your mother did was done by your mother, and what you did afterwards has already explained your attitude." It's not something everyone can do to be able to restrain themselves from the precipice, but you can do it, I am very pleased and admired. It's very rare that you know that you can change your mistakes. ”
"But the two royal brothers are stronger than the sons." Yan Chen was a little anxious: "Just like this time, Erchen stayed in the capital, and he was trembling to deal with many things, just like walking on a knife." But if it is Brother Qi Wang, Erchen believes that it will not be like this. Brother Qi Wang will definitely be able to handle these things with ease, and handle them very well. There is also the matter of Concubine Li, Brother Qi will not be so weak to deal with. ”
Yan Lie looked at Yan Chen, he didn't expect Yan Chen to refuse so fiercely. I didn't expect Yan Ming and Yan Chen to compete like this before, but now Yan Chen is so serious.
He couldn't help laughing and said, "This is interesting, the King of Qi resigns, you also resign, if the King of Jin also resigns, then this throne is not inherited by no one?"
He was not surprised by his love for Yan Chen, he always knew that Wei Rong only loved beauties and did not love the country. After becoming the emperor, even if Wei Rong's heart for Bao Yun remained unchanged, he did not dare to guarantee that Bao Yun would always be the only one in the harem.
Bao Yun doesn't necessarily want to live in the palace.
"Father, the son also wants to be like Brother Qi, find a beloved, and spend his life peacefully. I don't want to be a prince, I don't want to be an emperor, and I ask my father to fulfill it. His voice was much more relaxed than before.
At first, Yan Lie's temptation was very strong, but now looking at Yan Lie's appearance, he also believes that he is telling the truth.
When Yan Lie heard his words, he seemed to remember something, his eyes were a little misty, and his voice seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, which made people feel a little unreal.
"You know, the simpler things are, the harder they are to get."
"Erchen knows, but since Brother Qi and Sister-in-law Wang can do it, Erchen may be able to do it." Yan Chen said with a smile.
Yan Lie also came out of his thoughts and said, "Since what you are asking for is not this, then I will not force you." It's just that no matter who will be the prince in the future, I hope that you can always support each other like now, which is Qi Sheng's greatest blessing. ”
"The sons and daughters will obey the will of their father." Yan Chen said solemnly.
Yan Lie still couldn't help but sigh and said, "Go down." I'm tired. ”
"Father's rest, father's health, is Qi Sheng's greatest blessing."
After Yan Chen went out, Yan Lie said to Li Quan: "What I have always worried about before, I didn't expect it to be solved so easily now."
Li Quan helped him lie down on the bed and said, "This shows that the emperor is blessed."
Yan Lie laughed and didn't say anything. Late at night, the palace was quiet.
Early the next morning, the ministers all came to the gate of the palace according to the hour, staring at the beginning of the early dynasty. This is the first time in a month that the morning court is coming, and there must be something big to say.
With the shrill voice of the eunuch, the palace door opened. The ministers rushed in.
The ministers walked into the main hall, and Yan Lie was also supported by Yan Chen and Wei Rong and walked in.
Seeing that Yan Chen and Wei Rong were here, the ministers' hearts jumped even faster. It seems that today is the day to establish a prince.
After everyone saluted, Yan Lie said: "I have been sick in the past days, and the affairs of the capital are all handled by King Liang and Wang Daxue, I also read some excerpts yesterday, they handled it very well, and I didn't find any problems."
This can be regarded as affirming the merits of Wang Xian and Yan Chen.
"If they do a good job, they will be rewarded. The scholar of King Jin is the first assistant, and the prince is also the prince. Appreciate a pair of Liang Wang Yu Ruyi, one hundred taels of gold. Yan Lie said.
The two thanked each other.
The ministers silently speculated in their hearts about Yan Lie's meaning, and named Wang Xian as the crown prince, which means that there is really a prince. They thought, their eyes kept rolling on Wei Rong's body.
I don't want Yan Lie to continue to talk about the prince at all, but about the Sheng family: "I have been sick before, and I don't have the energy to pay attention to the affairs of the Sheng family. Now this matter can't be done, since the King of Qi is back, then the King of Qi will do it. The Sheng family has been doing evil for so many years, I want to know what they have done, how they did it, and how many people have been involved, I have to know all of them! ”
"Yes." Wei Rong bowed down and responded.
"Concubine Li's wolf ambition intends to rebel when I am asleep. Fortunately, King Liang and Princess Qi stopped it in time, so it didn't cause a catastrophe. Princess Qi single-handedly destroyed Xiao Zhengyang, the great wizard of South Vietnam who had been against Qi Sheng, and made great contributions, rewarding a pair of jade Ruyi, Princess Qi is now pregnant, if she gave birth to a man, she will be named the prince of Qi. If it is a woman, she will be named the lord of the county and be named vowel. ”
This kind of reward made the ministers more certain in their hearts, Yan Lie was going to establish Wei Rong as the crown prince.
However, Yan Lie still didn't say anything about the prince, but still said about the arrangements in the palace: "Although I have woken up now, my energy is still not good, the affairs of the harem are handled by Princess Qi, and the affairs of the court are handled by Lord Shoufu, King Qi and King Liang." Let's get here early today, scatter the dynasty! ”
The last two words made everyone not react, today's early dynasty is like this? Since Yan Lie is not in good health, he should settle the prince's affairs, otherwise, if there is a case, I am afraid that the situation in the court will change again.
Some ministers couldn't help but come out to stop Yan Lie from leaving, and said: "Your Majesty, now that the situation has stabilized, and the three princes have been able to take charge of themselves, should the prince's affairs be settled, so that some people will share the emperor's worries."
Yan Lie glanced condescendingly at the minister who spoke, and said indifferently: "Didn't I already arrange for King Qi and King Liang to take care of the affairs of the court?" King Jin is not in Beijing now, and it is not the time to set up a crown princess. ”
When he said this, he made the ministers look at each other, and what did he mean when he heard this, did he want to make Yan Ming the crown prince?
Without waiting for any more ministers to speak, Yan Lie left the hall with Li Quan's support. The ministers could only kneel and watch Yan Lie leave, their hearts shrouded in fog.
