Chapter 225: Depose the crown prince and set up a new king
When they came to the Washe where several people lived, Chen Yizhong and Mu Zi knocked on the door.
"Knock knock!"
After a sound, the people inside were also a little surprised.
"Who is it?"
The door opened, and a middle-aged man in his forties pushed open the door, and his wrinkled face also looked at the two of them with doubts.
Chen Yizhong bowed his hand and said: "I am supervising the imperial history Chen Yizhong, and I came here to pay my respects today?"
"Am I doing something wrong?" The whole guard was visibly stunned, and then his body began to tremble.
Chen Yizhong smiled: "No. But I have come today because I want to ask you for something. ”
"And you're just a seven-grade official, if there is really a problem, will you work with us?" Mu Zicai snorted lightly and said, "But are you going to let us stand outside and do nothing?"
"Well, I'm negligent. Quan Wei smiled, and hurriedly pushed the door open, letting the two walk in.
The two of them stepped into the door together, and immediately saw a young woman sitting in the courtyard. When the woman saw the two men walking into the courtyard, she quickly got up and ran into the room like startled rabbits.
Quan Wei said, "I'm sorry for the two of you. My daughter was frightened before, so it was inconvenient to see the guests. ”
"It doesn't matter. After all, we are here to take this opportunity to apologize to the two of you. Chen Yizhong hugged his fists and bowed, but he remembered the posture of the girl before him, and secretly admired: "Such a posture, no wonder it makes Zhao Xuan so coveted." It's a pity that she has a thin face, and I don't know what kind of chance she should have when she comes. ”
"Apologize? What do you mean by this?"
Chen Yizhong's sincere attitude made Quanwei very happy.
He himself was a lowly official in this Lin'an, but he was not less humiliated.
Chen Yizhong's expression became solemn, and then said, "It's about my beloved daughter." ”
"Beloved daughter?" Quan Wei was a little frightened, and asked in a low voice, "Could it be that the rumors in the city are true?" Seeing Chen Yizhong nodding lightly, he immediately showed a little pain, sat down on the ground, and sighed: "Alas." Why is my life so bad? How did this happen?"
"This. Please don't get excited, after all, we're already working on this. Mu Zicai stepped forward to persuade.
But that Quan Wei looked worried, and his eyes were full of fear: "But the other party is the prince, is this possible?" On weekdays, Mo said that he was the prince, but he didn't see a few characters such as Mu Zicai and Chen Yizhong.
Now that he is in the center of the storm, Quan Wei has already lost his mind and does not know what to do.
Mu Zicai persuaded: "Although the other party is the prince, after all, the law does not allow for favors. I believe that the officials are merciful and should make the right choice. And Prime Minister Wu Cheng has also admonished that as long as he makes a move, this matter should be resolved. He was confident in it.
"So you can live here in peace, and we'll take care of it for you. You know what?" Chen Yizhong instructed.
Seeing that the two of them swore an oath, Quan Wei naturally said yes again and again.
When the two saw that Quan Wei agreed, they were also a little relieved and left.
It's just that after Chen Yizhong left, he was a little worried, and said, "Cunsuo." I think we should send people in and keep them under control in case something happens?" He was impressed by that Quanwei, but he was just a mediocre person, and the reason why he agreed was just because he was afraid of the identity of the two.
"No, I don't. ”
Mu Zicai was full of confidence, and said with a smile: "That person is also a victim of crime, how can we treat him with such means?" And Prime Minister Wu has already begun to act, I believe it will succeed." ”
Chen Yizhong smiled: "That's nature. "But I was worried, and I always felt that I had missed something.
............
A few days later, Wu Qian once again stood in the Qinzheng Palace.
Raising his head, he could vaguely see that the person sitting on the throne had obviously decreased a lot, and it should have been caused by these things made by Zhao Xuan.
However, national affairs are important!
Although Wu Qian felt sorry for Zhao Yun's feelings, he still planned to stick to his decision, so he shouted in front of all the ministers: "Your Majesty." Sir, there is a matter for consultation today. ”
"What?"
Zhao Yun's heart tightened, his eyes swept over the ministers, and he saw that these ministers of his were all determined, and they were obviously already prepared.
"I beg Your Majesty to depose the crown prince and appoint another prince!"
As soon as the words came out, the courtiers were silent, quietly raised their heads, and looked at Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun's heart was sour: "Sure enough, have they all been conspired up a long time ago?"
In normal times, no matter which minister it is, even if it is Shi Miyuan, when this kind of thing is said, there will be a commotion in the court, and if there is that emotional, he will open his mouth and scold, and make the entire Qinzheng Hall the same as a vegetable market.
Of course, Zhao and Rui, who were standing on the other side, couldn't bear it anymore, and opened their mouths to shout: "Prime Minister, what do you mean by this?"
"Brother Huang, don't be angry. Let's listen to the prime minister and tell me why?" Suppressing his anger, Zhao Yun tried hard to make himself laugh, but this smile seemed too weak in the eyes of others.
Wu Qian began to elaborate: "Presumably His Highness already knows. That Zhao Xuan was on the street, unscrupulous, and robbed the people's daughters, how could such an act be done by the people? The minister thought that Zhao Xuan should be deposed and another prince should be elected!" Now that it was time for the sword and crossbow to be drawn, he didn't have the respect that the prince should have, and even began to call him by his name.
Zhao Yourui couldn't bear it, and immediately scolded: "Who to choose as the crown prince is a private matter of the imperial brother, why is it your turn to intervene?"
"His Royal Highness King Rong!"
At this moment, Wu Qian felt a sense of relief in his heart, and refuted: "You also know. The emperor is the co-lord of the world, and he does not seek to have the sage of Yao Shun, but he must not be contaminated with the explosion of Xia Ji and Shang. Otherwise, the people will be angry and the world will be in turmoil, but I am afraid that it will be time to change the dynasty again. ”
When he said this, he naturally made the courtiers appreciate it.
It's just that when Zhao and Rui heard it, they felt extremely angry and shouted, "What do you mean by this?"
Before being in front of the ministers, his son was called Xia Wei and first-class businessmen, how could Zhao and Rui accept this?
"Doesn't His Royal Highness King Rong still understand? How can you, a peerless genius who can speak at the age of five, read and write at the age of seven, and sing poetry at the age of nine, show his great talent on a mere throne?" Seeing that the other party was furious, Wu Qian felt relieved and mocked again.
In Lin'an, there have always been a lot of rumors about Zhao Xuan.
Everyone already knew that this guy was just a cerebral palsy patient, and it was only because of his father and the emperor's face that he didn't break this matter in the past.
But now, Wu Qian has plans to depose Zhao Xuan, so naturally he has no interest in continuing to maintain it.
"You, believe it or not, I'll let the imperial brother kick you out now?" Zhao and Rui couldn't help but continue to scold.
Zhao Yun looked annoyed, and immediately said: "Brother, you shut up for me!"
"But Brother Huang. Zhao and Rui didn't know, and asked back: "He said that my son Zhao Xuan is just a fool!" As his father, Zhao and Rui have always comforted themselves, thinking that Zhao Hui is just a dull talent, as long as he teaches well and teaches him carefully, he will naturally be able to open his mind.
Now that Wu Qian has broken his dream, how can he accept it?
Although Zhao Yun's eyebrows were locked, his expression was still the same: "I understand, you go down first." ”
"Brother Huang. Why are you—"
When Zhao Yourui heard this, he raised his head suddenly, and then he noticed a sharp gaze sweeping towards him, which made him lower his head and leave the Qinzheng Hall quickly.
With a hint of comfort in his eyes, Zhao Yunfu looked at Wu Qian again. Wu Qian was a little nervous, and his eyes unconsciously avoided Zhao.
That Zhao and Rui are not afraid, but Zhao Yun has been the emperor for more than 30 years, and the rest of the power is beyond his reach.
"In that case, I don't know if there is a candidate for Prime Minister Wu Cheng?" Zhao Yun asked.
Wu Qian was stunned for a moment and asked, "Your Majesty?"
He imagined that Zhao Yun might insist on seeing each other a few times, and even be furious, and he was fully prepared for these Wu Qian, but he didn't expect that Zhao Yun would soften and not reject his opinion?
"Perhaps, Zhao Xuan is really not suitable to be a prince. But the kingdom cannot be without a king for a day, and you also know my physical condition, and I may die anytime and anywhere. In that case, at least before I leave, I should also establish a candidate for the prince. Do you say?" Zhao Yun replied.
Wu Qian replied: "This, Zhao Xibo is in the process of choosing." I think there will be a candidate soon. ”
"That's good. Zhao Yun smiled slightly, immediately showed a little worry, and said, "That's right." Since he is the prince, then, according to your wishes, you should also study his character, knowledge, and talents! I wonder what the prime minister thinks?"
"This, the old minister has no opinion!"
Wu Qian replied, although he didn't know what Zhao Yun meant, he was also very happy.
As long as this opening is opened, then they can completely defeat Jia Rudao, Dong Songchen and others in one go.
"If that's the case, then I don't know if Zhao Xuan can also be involved in this palace discussion?" Zhao Yun asked again.
Wu Qian's eyebrows were slightly raised, thinking that it was just that Zhao Yun still had some illusions, but that Zhao Xuan was just a cerebral palsy patient, and he felt that there was nothing to be afraid of, so he agreed: "Of course you can." ”
If those candidates can't even fight a child with cerebral palsy, then what kind of talent is it?
"Good. Then the matter is up to you. Zhao Yun smiled reluctantly, feeling a little lucky.
He naturally didn't want his nephew to be degraded, so he deliberately arranged such a palace discussion, so that his nephew could have such an opportunity, if he could catch it, it would be good, but if he couldn't catch it, it would be fate.
In this way, he can also explain to his younger brother.
Wu Qian bowed his head and thanked: "The minister obeys the order!"
"Now that the matter has been settled, you don't have to stay here any longer, let's go get something to eat first. Seeing that the ministers of the DPRK and China were also relaxed, he felt extremely tired and opened his mouth to complain: "Retreat from the court!"
When the ministers heard this, they naturally did not continue to stay in the temple and left one after another.
