Princess Consort Is No Pushover

Everyone was shocked, these words were like a stone, suddenly "smashed" into a calm lake.

Indeed, in terms of merit, none of these princes could compare with King Li.

Li Wang is the most capable person.

Unfortunately, he is not the son of Emperor Hongyuan, and he is not qualified to inherit the Datong at all.

Yun Qing glared at the minister angrily, and said: "Master Wu, what about King Li's achievements? Is he the blood of the emperor? Besides, he has left Beijing privately and defected from the country. He has already become a criminal to be hunted down." , How can such a person be compared with the virtuous king? I think you are deliberately mentioning him now because you have ulterior motives."

And Emperor Hongyuan's complexion had already turned dark into the bottom of the pot.

Master Wu realized that the situation was wrong, and hurriedly said: "The emperor calms down, the minister did not support King Li, the minister was just outspoken just now, and hoped that the emperor would help."

"Enough! Don't fight anymore!" Emperor Hongyuan said, looking at Su Ming, and said, "Su Aiqing, now everyone is recommending a virtuous king, what do you think?"

After Su Ming raised his eyebrows, he cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, the establishment of a crown prince is a matter of great importance. I dare not speak in vain. I will listen to the emperor in everything. I believe that with the insight of the emperor, I will be able to choose the future of the Chu Kingdom." A wise gentleman."

Emperor Hongyuan frowned lightly, "Okay, after observing for a period of time, I actually think that the virtuous king is very good. He has a benevolent personality, understands the people's sentiments, is both civil and military, brave and resourceful, and is indeed the best among the princes." .”

As he spoke, he stood up, looked at the crowd, and said, "You are right, the establishment of a crown prince is indeed imminent. First, Prince Jin and Prince Rui did not hesitate to murder me in order to fight for power and profit, which really chills me Now that the situation is turbulent, in order to avoid the shock of the government and the opposition, and to prevent their brothers from fighting each other again, I must establish a prince as soon as possible to ensure the safety of the country."

"The emperor is wise." Yun Qing immediately led the crowd to answer.

Emperor Hongyuan nodded and said: "The virtuous king has always been benevolent and filial, and he has a noble character and is considerate of the common people. Chu will need such a wise king in the future."

As he said that, he glanced at King Xian, and then at the crowd, "I have decided to make King Xian the crown prince. Eunuch Xu, pass down the order and ask Qin Tianjian to choose an auspicious day. !"

"Yes, Your Majesty." Eunuch Xu said quickly.

When Yun Qing and the others heard this, they were all very happy, "Your Majesty is wise."

King Xian also quickly knelt down and said to Emperor Hongyuan: "I thank my father."

After saying that, after paying respects to Emperor Hongyuan, he said: "Please rest assured, Father, I will continue to work hard to assist Father, love the people, and never fail to live up to the emperor's kindness."

Yun Qing immediately said: "Your Majesty, with someone like His Highness the Wise King assisting you, I believe that the Chu Kingdom will have long-term peace and stability, which will be passed on from generation to generation."

"With the cultivation of the emperor, the virtuous king will definitely become better and better, and he will never let the people down." A minister said flatteringly.

Emperor Hongyuan was very happy to hear these words.

He smiled and said: "Okay, I believe that with the talents of the virtuous king, he will become a wise king in the future, and our Chu country will last forever, with a long-lasting foundation."

Now, Yun Qing and the others laughed happily, but King Yan and the other princes could only forcefully smile and congratulate King Xian against their will.

Only they themselves know how depressed and dissatisfied they are at the moment.

On the other hand, Su Ming narrowed his eyes carefully, with a scheming expression on his face, no one could guess his thoughts.

-

After retiring from the court, Yun Qing and others surrounded the Xian Wang and left the palace first.

Su Ming led several ministers and walked slowly in the palace.

After they left the palace, King Yan quickly followed.

"Master Su." King Yan quickly stepped forward and stopped Su Ming.

Su Ming raised his eyelids lightly, "What's the matter with His Royal Highness King Yan?"

"Master Su, can we take a moment to talk?" King Yan hinted.

He is very anxious now, because the emperor has already established the virtuous king as the crown prince, if he doesn't fight for it, I'm afraid the rest of his life will be ruined.

Su Ming narrowed his eyes lazily, "His Royal Highness has something to say, just talk about it here!"

"But..." King Yan glanced at the ministers around Su Ming, a little embarrassed.

Those ministers immediately said wittily: "Lord Su, lord, you guys talk first, we will avoid it first."

After finishing speaking, several people hurried away.

After they left, Su Ming said calmly: "The adults have already left, Your Highness, please speak up if you have something to say."

King Yan looked at Su Ming flatteringly, with an eager expression on his face, "Lord Su, what do you think about King Xian being made the crown prince?"

Su Ming raised his eyebrows and said: "Of course I congratulate the virtuous king, the emperor's eyes can't be wrong."

King Yan immediately said: "Lord Su, I don't believe that you really think so. This virtuous king has always been at odds with you. Once he is allowed to inherit the throne, he will not have a good life without you!"

"Really? The virtuous king is very benevolent. If I want to come here, he is not the one who will take revenge. Besides, everything I do is for the sake of the country and the overall situation. I believe that the virtuous king will understand." Su Ming said expressionlessly.

Seeing what he said, King Yan was extremely depressed.

He scratched his head helplessly, "Lord Su, I can see that you don't agree with letting King Xian be the crown prince at all in your heart. Convinced. Not only the king is not convinced, but other princes and ministers are also not convinced, it's just that everyone dare not raise objections due to the power of the Nalan family."

As he said that, he looked at Su Ming, and said eagerly: "Lord Su, to put it bluntly, this virtuous king owes his existence to the Nalan family. You know the Nalan family. They support the puppet emperor in Donglin Kingdom. They cover the sky with one hand and control the government, do you want Chu to become like this? Do you also want Chu to fall into the hands of foreigners?"

Su Ming darkened his eyes, "King Yan, are you thinking too much? It's too early now, so you don't have to worry so much."

"It's not that this king is worrying unnecessarily. You and I are at odds with the virtuous king. In order to prevent him from retaliating against us after he gains power, we must make early plans."

As King Yan said, he approached Su Ming and said in a low voice, "Lord Su, I have always respected you very much. For our future and future, why don't we unite? You support this king and persuade the emperor to change his mind. As the crown prince. If I ascend the Great Treasure at that time, you will be the number one hero, and you will have whatever you want."

"Whatever you want, you can have it?" Su Ming's eyes were mocking.

Isn't he like this now?

He already had this kind of life, so why take risks for a king of Yan?

King Yan thought that Su Ming was moved, and nodded quickly: "Yes, if you want, I can make you a king with a different surname at that time, and I will also give you fiefdom and glory, so that you can enjoy endless glory and wealth."
