Chapter 1364: Your Majesty Thinks Twice
Although Xiao Yuanshen is physically weak, he is quite popular with civil officials.
But everyone is also strange in their hearts, generally speaking, the prince doesn't like to come to the court very much, why did he come today?
At this time, three more old men came up.
Everyone present was shocked.
These three are the Taishi, the Taifu, and the Taibao.
These three, the official to the third duke, are the optimus pillars of Yan State's officialdom, but the three of them have not been in court for a long time.
Today we are all here.
Could it be that something big is happening today?
Everyone wanted to see some attention from the faces of the three princes, but the three of them looked calm, as if nothing had happened.
After the arrival of the third duke, it was almost time for the court, and everyone walked in one by one.
After everyone stood still, Emperor Yan strode out, and Huang Zishi followed beside him.
Emperor Yan sat on the dragon chair, and everyone began to discuss national affairs.
Everything is no different from the morning of the day.
The crown prince and the third prince did not say a word.
The crown prince Xiao Yuanshen was also strange in his heart, today he wanted to read a book at home, but the palace asked someone to spread a message and let him come to the court today.
Xiao Yuanshen felt strange in his heart, but he didn't say much.
After discussing a lot of Yan Kingdom affairs.
Emperor Yan glanced at the courtiers below and asked, "Do you still have something to do?" β
None of the ministers below replied.
If it is according to the previous rhythm, it should be announced that the court will be withdrawn, and everyone should go back to their homes.
But what everyone didn't expect was that Emperor Yan actually opened his mouth at this time and said, "I have something I want to tell you." β
"Huang Zishi, say it."
The old eunuch Huang Zishi on the side nodded, slowly stepped forward, and said loudly: "When Your Majesty was still the crown prince, there was a child who had been missing for many years, and now it is a great joy to finally find that child. β
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty."
The ministers below subconsciously congratulated them.
But then, everyone felt that something was wrong.
The emperor found his illegitimate son many years ago, is it necessary to announce it at the court?
What does that mean?
Everyone congratulated twice and quickly shut up.
"Yang Ye, you are the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, tell me, when you first established the prince, you threatened to establish the eldest son, otherwise you will commit suicide by hitting the wall, right?" Emperor Yan asked.
Listening to Emperor Yan's words, everyone's hearts trembled, and they all felt that something was wrong.
Yang Ye felt bitter in his heart, damn, why did His Majesty Emperor Yan pick himself to ask such a sensitive question?
However, Yang Ye is a staunch supporter of the crown prince and a mainstay in Xiao Yuanshen's interest group.
Yang Ye stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, the eldest son is the rule of my Yan Kingdom since ancient times, if this rule is broken, the country will not be a country!" β
Xiao Yuanshen frowned, he was a scholar and a person who was proficient in politics, he looked at Emperor Yan above and did not speak.
He knew, or rather, all the civil and military officials knew that Emperor Yan admired the fourth prince even more, Xiao Yuanjing.
Although Xiao Yuanjing is a prince, he has been trained in the army since he was a child, and now he is even more in charge, guarding the border all year round.
Quite respected by military attachΓ©s.
In comparison, the crown prince does seem to be much inferior, but who made him the eldest son?
Countless ministers were a little apprehensive in their hearts at this time, could it be that His Majesty Emperor Yan wanted to replace the crown prince?
The military attache in the court clenched his fists and felt excited.
The civil official secretly said in his heart that if His Majesty Emperor Yan dared to do this, he would definitely oppose it to the death.
"Let Yuanlong come over." Emperor Yan said.
"Yes." Huang Zishi glanced at the court below, and then walked in with Wang Gouzi.
Of course, now he has changed his name to Xiao Yuanlong.
Wang Gouzi was a little restrained, standing in this hall, looking at these civil and military officials, his heart was nervous.
The face is flushed.
He knew that these people were all big people who could influence Yan Kingdom.
"This is my son, my great prince! Xiao Yuanlong. Emperor Yan pointed at Wang Gouzi and said: "At the beginning, for various reasons, he was in the outside world, and I searched hard, but now, I finally found him." β
Yang Ye's face turned ugly.
The Great Prince?
Of course, almost all civil servants turned ugly.
They were all steadfast firstborns.
Now, a big prince suddenly ran out, which ......
However, the generals in the court were happy.
On weekdays, they are not good at words, and they are often suspicious of their lives by these civil officials.
The mouths of this group of civil servants are extremely powerful.
"Wait, I've seen the eldest prince!"
All the generals knelt down and saluted.
Of course, it's not that they appreciate Xiao Yuanlong more, but to block this group of civil officials and even the crown prince.
In this world, is there a reason for the coexistence of the eldest prince and the crown prince?
Wang Gouzi was suddenly a little nervous, and he hurriedly said, "Don't be like this, everyone, you're welcome." β
"Brother Huang, my father has been looking for you for many years, and now that I have really found you, we brothers can be regarded as reunited." The crown prince Xiao Yuanshen was quite stylish, he stepped forward, held Wang Gouzi's hand, and said, "Brother Huang." β
"Uh, little brother, hello." Wang Gouzi spoke.
The civil servants almost vomited blood.
Call the prince the younger brother?
Do you want to hang like that.
Even if you're older, you still have to call him the prince.
In the history of the Yan Kingdom, it is not unheard of appointing other princes as crown princes.
Especially during the period of fierce struggle for imperial power, such things were not uncommon.
Even if the little prince is made the crown prince, the other older princes must be honored as the crown prince.
Wang Gouzi didn't think too much about it, in their village, they call themselves brothers, don't they all call them junior brothers, or second brothers, two eggs, two stupid.
It's not called two eggs and two stupid, it's already the reason why Wang Gouzi reads more.
There was no fluctuation on the prince's face, and he said: "Brother Huang, if you have time to come to my prince's mansion for a while, we can also enhance the affection between brothers." β
The civil official could hear that the prince was reminding Wang Gouzi that he was the prince.
Can Wang Gouzi hear it?
Of course not.
Although he had read a lot of books, how could he understand these political things, he said: "It must be." β
"The eldest prince is lost, I have a great responsibility, as compensation, I will seal Xiao Yuanlong as the king of Yan!"
The court was shocked again.
What does Yanhuang want to do? Want to change the crown prince?
Yan Ke is the country name of Yan Kingdom, and it was actually given to a prince, doesn't this show that he wants this Xiao Yuanlong to inherit the throne?
Yang Ye hurriedly knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, don't do it!" β
"Why not?" Emperor Yan looked at Yang Ye and asked, "I will crown myself as the king, and you will also push back and block?" β
Yang Ye said: "This Yan is the name of our country, how can it be easily divided, if so, I am afraid that the country will not be a country, please think twice!" β
Another civil official knelt down: "If Your Majesty is like this, the ministers will crash to death on this hall." β
