Chapter 357 Hasty!
Xun Yu's eyes narrowed slightly, knowing that something important would be announced today, but he never thought that His Majesty would take the initiative to abdicate.
Although it is rare for the Emperor of Qin to abdicate, it is not unheard of.
This is a world where martial arts is respected.
If you pursue the martial arts wholeheartedly, it is not impossible to step down from your heavy responsibilities and retreat to the Enshrinement Hall to practice.
However, generally speaking, they will discuss with the courtiers in advance. National affairs should not be trivial, and the crown prince candidate will be decided before they are actually implemented.
It is rare that His Majesty announced his abdication directly at the court meeting today without any warning, which caught them a bit off guard.
When he thought of this, Xun Yu quickly prostrated, grabbed the ground with his head, and said urgently: "Your Majesty, you can't do it, you absolutely can't do it!"
Emperor Qin frowned slightly, looked at the old guy Xun Yu, a look of displeasure flashed on his face, and said resolutely: "Xun Aiqing, don't try to persuade me. There are two aspects to my abdication. On the one hand, it was my fault, and on the other hand, I also I plan to pursue the ultimate in martial arts.”
All the courtiers below were speechless for a while.
Pursuing martial arts?
Martial arts has been neglected for more than ten years, and now it is useless to advance bravely.
Despite this, no one refuted it.
Xun Yu didn't even think about it, and immediately said: "Your Majesty pursues martial arts, I fully agree with it. After all, this is a world where martial arts is respected. But this matter is too sudden, lest Xiaoxiao take the opportunity to cause trouble, which will be detrimental to our Great Qin."
Emperor Qin smiled and assured: "Don't worry, Xun Aiqing. Three days ago, I ordered the soldiers, horses and guards in the city to block the whole city. There is no way that the martial arts people in the city will rebel."
"But... there are rumors that the alien race will definitely invade the Central Plains." Xun Yu said with a worried look on his face.
"Ten generals are guarding the north, Xun Aiqing has nothing to worry about." Emperor Qin stroked his beard and smiled, seeming to have everything under control, and said in a leisurely manner.
He raised concerns about Xun Yu and answered them one by one without leaving anything out, which made people feel that His Majesty had already had this in mind.
Xun Yu's expression darkened, and he turned to ask: "Which prince is your Majesty passing on?"
"Aiqing is old, so you should get up first." Emperor Qin sat down and supported Xun Yu with one hand, so that Xun Yu no longer had to kneel.
Xun Yu hesitated for a moment and then stood up. His expression was unfamiliar and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"His Majesty cannot be allowed to abdicate. The ownership of the crown prince has not yet been determined. Everything is unknown. He does not dare to let Emperor Qin abdicate easily."
Xun Yu secretly made up his mind not to let His Majesty abdicate. As for whether he could do it, it was hard to say.
Emperor Qin shook his head and said unpredictably: "You all must know the princes well. Which prince do you think is worthy of a big job?"
The ministers were stunned, wondering whether it was His Majesty's test or His Majesty really had no candidate.
For a moment, everyone lowered their heads, their minds racing with thoughts, but no one dared to make the first move.
Taking sides at this time, if you are wrong, is tantamount to seeking death.
Therefore, no one dared to speak.
After a long time.
In the main hall, all the ministers were silent.
Emperor Qin's face darkened and he said angrily: "My dear friends, don't you think there is a prince who is worthy of such a great responsibility?"
Everyone's hearts trembled. They secretly supported a certain prince, but how dare they say it in court at this time.
What if His Majesty makes a false shot?
Even if His Majesty really wanted to abdicate, they would not dare to reveal his feelings casually.
It is a pity that the matter was discussed in private but could not be put on the table. This is the common sentiment of everyone.
They seemed to have discussed it, but never opened their mouths.
"Hmph, you all have no one to choose, but I have one." Emperor Qin snorted coldly, showing his dissatisfaction.
The ministers secretly thought that indeed, they raised their heads slightly and listened carefully to see who it was.
Emperor Qin sneered when he saw this.
"I think the King of Yan has both political integrity and talent, and is worthy of a great responsibility. What do you all think?" Emperor Qin said calmly with a cold face.
Wow!
There was an uproar, and the expressions on every minister's face were the same. They were either frightened or frightened. Even Xun Yu was no exception, and even his breathing became heavy.
"Your Majesty, the crown prince should be chosen from among the princes. King Yan's succession is against the rules of etiquette. I hope your Majesty will think twice."
Xun Yu looked solemn and quickly prostrated himself, trying to make His Majesty change his mind.
Even though I know it’s very small, I still can’t give up.
When King Yan succeeds to the throne, all his power will be in vain, and he may even be in danger of losing his official position.
"Huh, think twice? I have been thinking about it for a long time. King Yan is the most suitable candidate. At present, the Qin Dynasty is facing internal and external troubles. Only King Yan can take on the big responsibility. Dear friends, please don't discuss it again."
Emperor Qin didn't want to argue with the officials. He believed that King Yan could handle the matter well and settled the matter very domineeringly.
Xun Yu's face turned dark and he knelt on the ground, not knowing how to deal with himself.
"Ai Qing, please be free!" Emperor Qin glanced at him and said calmly: "After I abdicate, I will devote myself to cultivation and will not be concerned with political affairs. You should assist King Yan well and do not neglect it."
Of course, these are all just words.
Whoever dares to neglect King Yan will suffer greatly from many ministers present.
Many ministers looked gloomy, and there was nothing they could do if your Majesty came to tell the truth.
In addition to governing the country, they can speak up in political affairs, but when it comes to the Jianghu, they are not as good as the thousand households of Jinyiwei.
"I will obey His Majesty's will!" Everyone bowed and agreed.
Emperor Qin nodded lightly. He didn't come here to ask for opinions today, but decided the matter directly without allowing them to refute or disobey at all.
Qin Huangchao glanced aside, and a eunuch immediately understood, took out the two edicts, and said: "I have drafted the edict of sin and the edict of passing the throne, and you will announce it to the world immediately."
Xun Yu hesitated for a while, then came out and said: "Your Majesty is wise and powerful, and he has pacified the foreign races outside the region. Not only is there no fault, but it is a great achievement. There is no need to issue an imperial edict for serious sins."
This is the result of careful consideration.
Emperor Qin glanced at him and said with a smile: "What happened in Shaolin was my fault. I trapped the Qin Dynasty in injustice and put it in an extremely dangerous situation. How could I not be at fault?
I love you and are loyal to you, I understand. It’s just that I’ve already made up my mind on this matter, so there’s no need to say more. "
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Xun Yu nodded, UU reading www.uukanshu.net looked calm, and stepped back.
then.
The hall fell into silence again...
Emperor Qin stood up from the dragon chair, looked down at His Highness, looked around, and then landed on the dragon chair.
Then, he flicked his sleeves and left from the side, completely leaving the hall.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty!"
Led by Xun Yu, all the officials knelt down one after another and shouted loudly.
Under the call of Baiguan Mountain, Emperor Qin gradually lost his trace.
After the officials stood up again, King Yan walked up step by step, wearing a yellow robe and looking down at the officials with an indifferent expression.
If you were to ask King Yan about his inner feelings at this time, he would be indifferent, and not as excited as he imagined.
As the leader of hundreds of officials, Xun Yu must set an example. When he saw King Yan coming to power, he immediately prostrated himself and said, "Long live my emperor!"
"Long live my emperor! Long live!"
Baiguanshan shouts!
King Yan looked indifferently as he watched His Highness and all the officials bow their heads. In the past, except for not kneeling down, he was exercising the power of the emperor.
Therefore, sitting on the dragon chair feels boring.
