Chapter 175 The Hall of Xuande



Chapter 175 The Hall of Xuande

On October 27th of the third year of Jingyuan, the last rebel army of the Seven Kings Rebellion was killed in the suburbs of Beijing, and the king of Linzi was defeated and died.Since then, the military disaster caused by the battle between Emperor Jing Yuan and the Eldest Princess has finally disappeared. As for who wins and who loses in this confrontation, it depends on who is still alive now.

Before the two armies fought, the other [-] Xuanjia troops who originally defended the capital had already withdrawn into the capital, and together with the soldiers and horses of the Xiao cavalry guards, they took on the important task of defending the city.The [-] Xuanjia army has another commander, he is not from the eldest princess, but voted for Xiao Qian early on, but now that Xiao Qian is dead, King Fu and the eldest princess brought the emperor's coffin and the imperial conquest team came back!

So after the war ended, the city gate of Anyang was closed for another day, and finally opened slowly towards the army.

The [-] Xuanjia Army and the [-] Yulin entered the city with Princess Fu, while the rest of the guards dispatched by Xiao Qian from various places and the Mianzhou Army of Fu Wang were left outside the city to garrison.Although it seems that the overall situation has been settled now, the more it is like this, the more we cannot take it lightly.

After nearly a year's absence, when he fled in a hurry in the middle of the night, but now he came back with a mighty army, Zhong Shao felt quite emotional.

After entering the city, Jiang Feng, another commander of the Xuanjia Army who stayed behind in the capital, came to pay homage together with He Peng, the commander of Xiaoqiwei, but the two of them looked at King Fu and Princess Dachang who were riding in front of the army. They bowed down: "The last general Jiang Feng/He Peng, pay homage to His Royal Highness King Fu." The two bowed to King Fu, and then saluted the eldest princess: "Meet Her Royal Highness Princess Yingyang."

This sequence can explain a lot of things, at least in the eyes of the world, King Fu now occupies more etiquette.

The eyes of Xiao Chengyi and Xiao Chenglian, who followed a little behind, lit up. Xiao Wenxuan felt a headache when she saw it, so she hurriedly pulled the two brothers to restrain themselves and stop acting too out of line.

King Fu was neither arrogant nor impetuous, he glanced at the eldest princess, and waited until the eldest princess called "free ceremony" first, and then followed up with another sentence of "free ceremony".Apparently, he also intentionally flattered the Eldest Princess.

Careful people have naturally noticed the undercurrent in the meeting between the two parties, but many people looked at each other after seeing Fu Wang voluntarily retreating, and then exchanged various information with their eyes.

The eldest princess is not in a hurry, but judging from the performance of the two people in front of her, she knows that people's hearts may be fluctuating in Jingzhong.In other words, since the news of Emperor Jing Yuan's death came back, people's hearts have been floating in the capital.After such a few months, the clans who stayed in the capital must have developed ambitions, but they didn't follow the etiquette, and they didn't have the strength, so it would be difficult to make trouble if they wanted to.

The eldest princess didn't pay attention to these small commotions in Beijing, and what she cared about was King Fu.Although Fu Wang has always been very sensible, but she did not forget that he still has more than 5 Mianzhou troops in his hands, and two ambitious sons...

After pondering for a while, the Eldest Princess said: "Your Majesty was assassinated before the battle, and now we have brought back His Majesty's coffin, and now we are going to welcome His Majesty back to the palace. General He, please send someone to pass on to the clan ministers to pay a visit to the palace." His Majesty."

Maybe it was because of King Fu's concession before, maybe it was because what the eldest princess said was right, He Peng only hesitated for a moment when he heard the words, and then took his orders and left, which seemed very sensible.It's just that Jiang Feng looked at the eldest princess with guarded eyes. Unlike He Peng, he is a member of Emperor Jing Yuan's family. He has been fighting with the princess's family for so many years. No matter what direction he thinks about, it is difficult to accept. Quickly the eldest princess.

But Princess Dachang didn't care about Jiang Feng at all, because his attitude didn't matter at all.

After that, Qin Yu's [-] Xuanjia army was left in the outer city, and Jiang Feng's [-] Xuanjia army was also left in the outer city. The Princess Dachang and King Fu and other important figures carried the coffin of Emperor Jing Yuan in the outer city. Under the protection of Habayashi, he finally returned to the palace again.

************************************************** **********

It is true that Jingzhong had learned about the death of Emperor Jingyuan long ago, especially after knowing that the royal conquest team was led by King Fu and Princess Dachang to help the spirit back, the funeral in the palace has actually been prepared for several months up.

In the Xuande Palace, the Emperor's Zi Palace and all the necessary items were already in place, but Xiao Qian had been dead for several months, and it was the scorching heat when he died, even if embalming measures had been taken, the body is no longer visible.But the queen didn't seem to care, leading several concubines in the harem to cry uncontrollably, and even Princess Dachang and King Fu had to shed a few fake tears along with her.

Fortunately, the clan and the officials arrived very quickly, almost as soon as Emperor Jing Yuan was restrained here, the officials on the other side had already arrived outside the Xuande Hall.The queen and concubines were escorted to the apse immediately, and the clan ministers entered one by one, weeping for Emperor Jing Yuan, who had passed away for several months.

No one can tell whether it is true or false, but even if there is someone who is truly crying bitterly, it is not because of Xiao Qian, but because of himself. How high-spirited and high-spirited, who would have known that Emperor Jing Yuan himself died first in a few months, and now that the eldest princess has returned in good condition, so the day of reckoning accounts after autumn may not be far away!

After crying this scene, the most important thing is of course the candidate for the new emperor.It is said that a country cannot be without a king for a day, but because Emperor Jingyuan has no sons, because the Xiao family has withered, because there is no one in Anyang who can convince the people, and because the country is still trapped in the war against the king, these things happen all the time. After a few months of delay, it was all thanks to the prime minister and others who were in charge of the affairs of the country, which did not cause greater turmoil.

But now, Emperor Jing Yuan's coffin has been sent back, and King Fu, the only surviving descendant, has also returned, so the emperor should have a conclusion, which is more important than Emperor Jing Yuan's funeral ceremony!

Prime Minister Wang Mian is a pure minister. He was not from the lineage of Dachang Princess or Xiao Qian, but he is extremely capable and loyal to the emperor and patriotic. Therefore, he has been a prime minister since the Taiping Dynasty, until Emperor Jingyuan came to the throne , and never removed him and replaced him with his own people.Up to now, he still has no selfish intentions, and he was the first to raise the question of the new monarch.

This question is quite sensitive, and as soon as the voice fell, the hall was silent.

Everyone present had obviously heard the news about the incident when they entered the city, so the originally clear situation suddenly became confusing.Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, no one dared to speak first at this moment, Wang Cheng waited, and finally said again: "A country cannot be without a king for a day, the former emperor has collapsed, and there is no heir left behind, the new king is chosen, Please discuss it together.”

He said it twice in a row, and this question really cannot be avoided. After another period of silence, someone finally asked timidly: "The prime minister thinks, who is worthy of this position?"

What he said was a little inappropriate, but Prime Minister Wang didn't care, he had a fair face, and he said without evasion: "The etiquette of the clan, now the only direct branch of the royal family is His Royal Highness Fu Wang, I invite Fu Wang to be the king."

As soon as Prime Minister Wang's words fell, the silence in the palace was finally broken. He was very dignified in the court, not to mention that there was nothing wrong with such a statement, which almost represented the position of all pure ministers and neutral factions.So someone seconded it on the spot, and as time went by, there were quite a few people who seconded it.

Princess Dachang and King Fu have been standing aside watching and listening. They have never made a statement from the beginning to the end, but when nearly half of the ministers in the hall seconded the proposal, King Fu's forehead was soaked in cold sweat.

How could he not know that since he owns the etiquette, there must be a lot of supporters, plus Xiao Qian's old officials are afraid of being purged by the Eldest Princess in the future, so they will definitely lean towards him.With the admiration and support of these people, it is not difficult for him to ascend to the throne of God, but so what?Do you want to be the next Xiao Qian?If you can't keep the throne, you have to lose your life, and there must be more than one!

Fu Wang is ambitious, but he can see through more clearly, and at the same time, he also has self-knowledge.If he had already ascended to that position and tasted the taste of power, he would definitely be reluctant to give up, but now that he has awakened ahead of time, how would he dare to compete with the Eldest Princess? !

So in the main hall, the voices to support King Fu became more and more serious, but he stepped out one step at a time, then cupped his hands at the crowd and said: "Little Wang's talents are shallow, and he can't bear the burden of the world, so please think about another candidate. "After speaking, he bowed to the ground, and the meaning of resignation was quite firm.

Fu Wang's words seemed to pour a basin of cold water directly on many people's heads.Some people didn't believe that he was willing to give up the easy-to-get throne, some were worried about the ownership of the throne after King Fu resigned, and some were full of unwillingness.

The ones who were unwilling were Xiao Chengyi and Xiao Chenglian, even though Fu Wang and Xiao Wenxuan had warned them more than once.But they entered Anyang, entered the palace, saw Jiang Feng and He Peng bowing to King Fu, watched Prime Minister Wen and half of the courtiers admiring King Fu, and felt that even if the eldest princess had a deep foundation, they would have the power to compete, so Where are you willing to forbear? !

Seeing King Fu's resignation, Xiao Chengyi became impatient, he actually took two steps forward on such an occasion, and shouted: "Father!"

This voice was full of eagerness and disapproval, and everyone present could hear it.Naturally, King Fu knew it very well, his face turned dark immediately, he turned his head and shouted: "Shut up! The princes in the palace, how can you wait for Lizi to speak?!"

Monarchs, fathers and sons, etiquette is very important, King Fu is the father, he scolded, let alone Xiao Chengyi, the second son who has no title, even if it is the eldest son Xiao Chengli who is here at the moment, he will never speak again room.But Fu Wang could also see that Xiao Chengyi was not convinced, not only he could see it, but many people could also see it.

Some people's eyes are brightened, some people's minds are moved, and some people's eyes have already fallen on the two sons of King Fu...

However, without waiting for their incitement, Fu Wang never looked at the two restless sons again, and resolutely bowed to the eldest princess with his old face: "Xiao Wang knows that his talent and virtue are shallow, and he can't bear the responsibility, but the eldest princess has virtue." He has both talent and talent, and he is also a direct branch of the Xiao family." After a short pause, he said loudly, "Princess Eldest Princess, please succeed me!"
