Chapter 11 Be a man with his own bearing.
Official Sima Handun tried his best to guess what was on the Emperor"s mind. He came forward first: “Your Majesty, Tianqing Khan has been placated. Now the emperor can give out his order, let Zhenhai w.a.n.g come to Jing city to report, wait for him to come to the capital, and the Emperor can try again. Let there be a showdown, if he dares to resist the order, immediately seize the power!”
Official Situ Ximen Dehao was still worried: “Your majesty, this matter still needs to be considered, if you suddenly cut the military power of Zhenhai w.a.n.g, it is no different from forcing him to rebel. So we should think of a better way, both to make him hand over the power and to let him not speak.”
Zhong Hanhan looked at Ximen Dehao with interest: “It can"t be that beloved Ximen has an idea right?”
“This old official does not dare, this old minister is saying it for the emperor"s referencing, if it is not suitable, the emperor can take it as this minister didn"t speak”
Zhong Yehan nodded: “No worries, talk!”
Ximen Dehao turned to the rest of the ministers “All of you, in former times when an emperor wanted to seize hold of power, there were only two ways, one was capturing and subduing, the other was purposeful killings, the emperor naturally refuses to adopt the second plan, now only the first plan can be discussed”
Situ Ximen Dehao had not finished, when Handun b.u.t.ted in:” Official Situ, don"t forget, Zhenhai w.a.n.g is Hu Feiying, a prince, and you want to rise to an officer, then do you want him to become the emperor?
Ximen Dehao waved his hand: “Official Sima said it is well, this is also the place where this old man is entangled, but this old minister thinks that the emperor did not set up a prime minister, but was forced by the situation at the time. Now the situation is different, why not let the emperor set up a position for prime minister, allow Hu Feiying come to the general government, so that he would not leave his territory, 300,000 horses will unconsciously return to the emperor"s side.”
Han Dun looked at him disdainfully: “Official Situ, you doing this, you are leading the wolf into the room! Who is Hu Feiying, you recruit him here to lead political affairs, isn"t it more dangerous?”
Ximen Dehao shook his head: “Making him be a prime minister, as long as he doesn"t bring a soldier, we are all one here, we are afraid of him?”
Zhong Yehan"s brows were tightly locked. Obviously, he was also undecided. Making Hu Feiying be the prime minister. It is indeed risky. If I don"t do this, there is no other better way. He indulged the thought for a long while: “Let"s do this! Let"s think about it, let it go for today! Go back and think about it. If there are any good ideas, you can come to the palace at any time to give your opinion about it, let it go!”
The crowd also knew that the emperor was uncertain, so after the end of the morning court, they all left the Golden Treasure Bell Palace. The officials walked out of the Golden Treasure Bell Palace. The first two people to walk out were young, one was the current crown prince Zhong Langyao, and the other was his second brother, the Jia Junw.a.n.g, Zhong Langxi. They walked and talked with smiles. Zhong Langyao was in a good mood today, one could tell from his smiling face,m: “Brother, there are no problems today, right! How about coming to my house?” Zhong Langxi nodded with a smile: “The feeling is good, I don"t have time to go play, just drink with you."
"You are a drunkard, you don"t forget to take a drink everywhere." From Zhong Langyao"s teasing, one could say that among the four brothers, the Crown Prince and Zhong Langxi were the closest.
The two brothers talked and laughed on their way to their respective sedan chairs, ordering the people carrying the sedan. “Take Jia Junw.a.n.g to my house. I want to discuss a few things with him.”
“Yes!” The people carrying the sedan answered.
The two of them set off, and soon they arrived at the crown prince"s house. The Crown Prince"s house was very close to the palace. It was originally the residence of a former prince. When Zhong Yehan was a prince, he lived there and later gave it to Zhong Langyao, a place which meant that the owner who lived there was very likely to become the future Emperor.
The men quickly sat down at a banquet, Zhong Langyao and Zhong Langxi sitting drinking face to face. Why didn"t Ling Junw.a.n.g Zhong Langfu and Yin Junw.a.n.g Zhong Langyu partic.i.p.ate? There was a contradiction between the four princes of the Emperor. Zhong Langxi was attached to the crown prince. In the future, he also planned to be a Crown Prince. Zhong Langxi, had always felt that as long as you hadn"t yet reached the throne, everything was possible. When he had a good relationship with the officials, he would ruin the Crown Prince. If Fu Huang looked at him and he wasn"t pleasing to his eyes anymore, he would go to table with the officials!
As for the Yin junw.a.n.g Zhong Langyu, there was no drama. He originally wanted to rely on the Prince, but people simply couldn"t see him. That is to say, the Prince did not even give him the opportunity to rely on him. He was also used vain, by his father. Giving a fool to him to be a blind man, what future did he have, was it necessary for a future Emperor to make the future Empress a fool?
So Zhong Langyu"s eyes were not looking at this younger brother. Zhong Langyu knew that he couldn"t attach himself to the Crown Prince. He had to pick up his tail and be a man. Anyway, he didn"t want anything to do with being the Emperor. He just lived his life peacefully.
Zhong Langyao picked up the cup and smiled: “Brother, recently Father seems old, I estimate that it is not far from the time when I can become Emperor. Among his sons, I am looking forward to Laozi"s return to the West (an euphemism that refers to someone dying) the most.”
If the Emperor knew that Zhong Langyao was such a good thing, he would have him abolished him.
Zhong Langxi also put on a charming face. “This younger brother is waiting for that day. When you become the emperor, don"t forget your promise.”
Zhong Langyao grinned: “Hey, aren"t you having a good time, if you don"t think it"s good, you just look at Zheng Shu fei!”
Zhong Langxi"s face became sweet: “I just like her, with her soft, weak, and delicate dripping skin, this younger brother finds her really eye-catching, as long as I have her in my life, I don"t want anything else.”
