Chapter 351: Abolish the Prince (2)
"Your Majesty, you can't do it, the Crown Prince said that he would be abolished, and he also asked His Majesty to take back the verbal order to abolish the Crown Prince." Liu Rujing said eagerly to Longren. Liu Rujing is the prince's grandfather. Naturally, he didn't want to see Long Ying being abolished as the prince, so he desperately pleaded for mercy, imploring Long Ren not to abolish the position of the Longying prince.
Long Ren also didn't want to, if this time it wasn't the crown prince, then it would be himself. Don't think of yourself as the king of the empire, but if you insist on going your own way and offend all the ministers in the court, then don't say, there will even be someone who will stand up and criticize your own fault today, and then force yourself to step down.
As for those royal relatives, Longren did not count on them. They are like grass on the wall, whoever can give them more benefits will fall to which side. When he was forced to abdicate, those royal relatives might not even be happy to laugh.
"Your Majesty, the crown prince is young and vigorous, but seeing that Tsing Yi will run rampant in the imperial capital, he was suddenly dizzy and made such a big mistake. Please, Your Majesty, give the crown prince a chance." Ximen He also pleaded. When the prince fell, the Ximen family would suffer the most. Not to mention more money and energy, Ximen He also lost a daughter.
"I beg Your Majesty to take back the order and give the Crown Prince a chance." The officials behind Ximen He agreed.
Long Ren said in his heart: "It's not that I don't want to let him go, but that he doesn't let himself go. You say that you are a dignified prince, so it's better to stay in the prince's mansion honestly, and you have to come out to do these messes. I will help you to do it. This matter is not so easy to handle today. You say you are, you can send your own mansion guards, but you have to send the city defense army. The city defense army is so easy to mobilize, hey , For the sake of the Long family, Ying'er, I have to sacrifice you."
Longren thought about it a lot, and finally said helplessly: "I have made up my mind, you Aiqings don't need to say more. As for the position of the prince, I will choose among my other sons, so don't worry about the Aiqings. "
As soon as Long Ren finished speaking, the following ministers discussed it again.
"What do you mean by Your Majesty? Does Your Majesty not want to appoint a prince again?"
"I can't figure out what Your Majesty is thinking. The second prince, Long Ye, is a humble person and should be the best candidate for the crown prince, but His Majesty has been slow to make a decision. I don't know what His Majesty is waiting for?"
"Hey, you and I can guess what Your Majesty's thoughts are, but the position of the crown prince cannot be vacant, it should be better to establish it early, otherwise the battle for the position will be no less than a battle between dragons and tigers. Know how many people will be replaced in the court."
Since ancient times, the battle for the throne has been very cruel. Any minister who is in the wrong team will end up miserably. The death of the death, the demotion of the demotion, the situation is slightly better, and is still an official in the court, but it is far away from the political core.
"Your Majesty, it's not a problem for the crown prince to be vacant, and the old ministers have no opinion. It's just that Your Majesty, the princes are all staring at this position. If it is vacant, then the battle for the throne will be hard to avoid." Yuwen Haoran said.
Long Ren didn't think of this just now, but now Jing Yuwen Haoran reminded him soberly to realize this point, but Long Ren was very unwilling to seal Long Ye as the prince. What Longren hates the most is that ministers force the palace, or any emperor will hate it. He has already compromised once and abolished the prince, but he no longer wants to compromise a second time.
"Yuwen Aiqing is right. The position of the prince cannot be left vacant. For the sake of national stability, I have made the second prince Long Ye the acting prince. As for whether I can be promoted to the prince position, I will investigate carefully." , only came up with the idea to seal Longye as the crown prince, so that he could stop the mouths of the ministers before talking about it.
"Your Majesty, may I ask you, what is the Crown Prince?" Bai Gao asked.
"To replace the prince is to entrust the power of the prince, and he also has the reality of the prince. It's just that I want to test him. If Long Ye really has the talent of the emperor, then I will make him the prince." Long Ren explained.
Those ministers are not stupid, they all know that this is an expedient measure of Longren, and the crown prince has not yet been decided. As for the prince of that generation, it is estimated that it is an empty title, not even a puppet, and he will be ridiculed when he walks out of the door. However, this result is the biggest concession of Longren. If Longren is forced again, it is estimated that Longren will really get angry and kill people.
"Your Majesty..." Some ministers were not satisfied with the result and continued to persecute, but Ye Jiantian coughed a few times softly, and those ministers returned to their positions.
"That's fine. It's inevitable that the crown prince will be established in a hurry, so as not to be another dragon eagle." Ye Jiantian whispered to himself after coughing.
Even though Ye Jiantian's voice was very small, in fact, everyone in the Xuanzheng Hall could hear it clearly. Those ministers knew that Ye Jiantian was no longer intimidating Long Ren, so they praised Long Ren in unison: "Your Majesty is wise."
Some are happy and some are sad.
People from other parties were all smiles, but the princelings were all full of sadness, as if their parents had died, especially Liu Rujing and Ximen He.
Ximen He was in a hurry now, and his chest was very tight. If he hadn't forced his Dou Qi to calm down the anger in his heart, he would have spurted a hundred liters of blood.
"Today, I am already tired. If I have nothing to do, then I will retreat. I will go back and have a good rest." Long Ren stood up and said.
"Respectfully send your majesty." The ministers said in unison. Those ministers have achieved their goals, and there are other things to report. The original ministers who supported the prince were all in a state of despair, and they probably didn't know what they were talking about.
Just as Long In took two steps, he swayed and almost fell. Seeing this, Eunuch Lu came over to support Longren, but Longren shook off Eunuch Lu's hand with all his strength. With so many ministers watching, he could not afford to lose his face when he stepped out of the Xuanzheng Hall, and before he could walk fifty meters, Longin spat out a big mouthful of blood.
"Your Majesty, are you all right?" Eunuch Lu saw that Longren was vomiting blood, he immediately stepped forward to support Longren, and asked Longren with concern.
"It's okay." Long Ren waved his hand and said.
"Today, the ministers seem polite, but they are actually forcing the palace. I had no choice but to abolish the position of the crown prince, and set up the second prince Long Ye as the replacement crown prince. You said that I did this, right?" Long Ren breathed a sigh of relief. Ask Eunuch Lu.
Eunuch Lu could see the scene just now, knowing that Long Ren must have vomited blood because he was angry just now. When it comes to abolishing Long Ying's crown prince, Eunuch Lu also felt that it was right to do so. In Eunuch Lu's eyes, the crown prince is a cowardly person, without great talent, who will only bully and bully others with a bunch of scumbags. If such a person becomes the emperor, then the Zilong Empire will be worried!
