Chapter 482 Meeting the Reserve (1)

Who do you think I should make the crown prince?

Emperor Xuanhe threw a light sentence, his eyes fixed on the faces of the three dukes.

Duke Pingguo was in charge of the border army, Duke Wei was the Minister of War, and Duke Jingguo was in charge of the Shenwu Army. The three of them were the important officials of the Great Chu and the mainstay of the Great Chu military. They had a great influence on the court.

The emperor wants to establish a crown prince, who will the three of them recommend?

Duke Ping looked solemn and bowed and replied: "The establishment of a crown prince is a major event for the country. The emperor is wise and I think he has made a decision in his heart. The last general is a military general, and he only knows how to lead troops to fight. How dare he speak nonsense!"

The Duke of Wei also said with a serious expression: "Every princes have their own strengths. If the emperor wants to make the crown prince, the old ministers will strongly support the emperor's decision."

Duke Jingguo responded respectfully: "What Duke Pingguo Weiguo said is exactly what the old minister said."

These three old foxes are full of loyalty and patriotic words, and are not foolish and have no words.

Cheng Jinrong in the corner smiled in her heart.

Of course, it would be the same if other officials were here. Even if you have a bias in your heart, you cannot reveal it on your face.

Emperor Xuanhe was not that easy to fool. He glanced at him and said in a deep voice: "There are no one here, only me and you. I want to hear the truth from you, and don't deal with these stupid words."

"Duke Pingguo, please tell me first. Among the princes, who do you think is the most suitable?"

...

Looking at Emperor Xuanhe's attitude, I will never give up until I ask for an answer today.

After a brief consideration, the Duke of Pingguo said slowly: "The establishment of a crown prince is nothing more than the establishment of the chief and the legitimate wise!"

"If the emperor wants to establish a chief, he should establish a eldest prince. If the emperor wants to establish a legitimate position, he should be the second prince or the sixth prince. If the emperor intends to establish a virtuous person, it depends on which prince has the best talent and martial arts."

Finally, it was not that broad, and it was said that the eldest prince, the second prince and the sixth prince were mentioned. However, the sleek and experienced Duke Pingguo added Lixian's choice.

Emperor Xuanhe neither occupied the legitimate nor the eldest son, and was appointed as the crown prince because of the favor of the late emperor. The emperor was biased and the officials praised him vigorously, so this was considered a "virtuous".

Cheng Jinrong secretly praised in his heart, Duke Ping's response was really perfect! He is worthy of being the leader of the border army of Jian Zai Dixin!

Emperor Xuanhe looked unpredictable and did not know whether he could speak. He asked Duke Wei again: "Duke Wei, for you, which prince is the most suitable?" Before Duke Wei could slap Tai Chi, he said with a calm face: "I want to listen to the truth!"

Saying the truth in front of the emperor is something that only fools will do.

Duke Wei has been in the court for many years, and the shrewd and old master is better than Duke Ping. He responded: "If the emperor wants to hear the truth, the uncle will dare to express his feelings."

"The son is noble because of his mother. Among all the princes, the second prince and the sixth prince are the most respected. The second prince has married and has children, and has been in the court for more than two years. He has never made any great contributions, but he has no major mistakes..."

Emperor Xuan He's eyes slightly cold: "So, do you think I should make the second prince?"

Duke Wei was always paying attention to the change of Emperor Xuanhe's expression. In an instant, a deep regret flashed through his heart.

The second prince really lost his holy heart. He deliberately opened his mouth to test, but Emperor Xuan He didn't even have the patience to listen, so he interrupted him.

Well! Grandson-in-law, I have already spoken for you today, and it can be considered you.

Compared with a group of military generals, Duke Wei was more like a politician in the court. He immediately changed his words: "The old minister has not finished speaking yet. Although the second prince is a legitimate son, he is older than the sixth prince. However, the establishment of a crown prince is a major event. The old minister thinks that the second prince has no mind and courage as the crown prince."

"Your Majesty also asks you to choose another wise prince as your crown prince!"

Emperor Xuanhe's expression was slightly calmer and without saying anything, he looked at Duke Jingguo again: "Duke Jingguo, what prince do you think do you think is the most suitable?"

In just a moment, a series of thoughts flashed through Duke Yasukuni's mind.

The Ye family had a legitimate daughter who married the eldest prince as her concubine. However, this was nothing. The niece of Duke Ping's relative was the eldest prince's concubine, and he did not see Duke Ping's speech for the eldest prince.

Which prince is appointed as the crown prince? After all, it depends on the holy heart and holy intention.

It is not difficult to guess the emperor's intentions. Emperor Xuanhe summoned the three of them to meet today, saying that they were "consulting the crown prince", but he simply wanted to carry the sixth prince out through the mouths of the three of them.

Duke Jingguo quickly figured out the mystery and opened his mouth: "The old minister thinks that the sixth prince is worthy of being the crown prince!"

A hint of satisfaction flashed in Emperor Xuanhe's eyes, but he said lightly: "The eldest prince and the second prince are all married and have children, and the fourth prince and the fifth prince are also adults. Although Xiaoliu is more intelligent than human and generous, he is too young."

Duke Pingguo Weiguo Duke Jingguo laughed in his heart.

Look, Emperor Xuan He was so slanderous, he was like a lice on a bald head, clearly.

Other princes do not praise the fact that they mention the sixth prince, they are "extremely intelligent" and "a generous temperament". The only disadvantage is that they are young.

The Duke of Pingguo immediately took over the conversation: "The emperor is prosperous in spring and autumn, and it is okay for the sixth prince to be younger. The young man has not yet been established, so the emperor can personally teach an excellent crown prince. This is the blessing of all officials of the Great Chu Dynasty and the blessing of all people."

"What Duke Pingguo said is very true." Since he understood the intention of Emperor Xuanhe, Duke Wei had nothing to hesitate, and he praised the Sixth Prince: "The Sixth Prince is young and intelligent, and knows ten things at once. The most rare thing is that he is generous, loyal, filial, and righteous. If the emperor appointed the Sixth Prince as the crown prince, all the ministers will be convinced."

Jingguo didn't talk much at ordinary times, but he said it was a witty saying: "I have never seen how outstanding the Sixth Prince was in the past. Since the Sixth Prince was serving the emperor's pen and ink, he has become better day by day. From this, it can be seen that the emperor has taught him well."

Emperor Xuanhe finally laughed: "I have summoned you to come today, because it is a private gossip of the king and his ministers. I have heard what you said. However, I still have to consider it carefully."

After a pause, he ordered, "Today's affairs should not be spread. If there is any news, I will ask you."

The three princes respectfully accepted the order together, but they each roared in their hearts and secretly complained.

The prelude to the saint is right, and the matter involves the establishment of a crown prince. Who would randomly spread such matters?

Emperor Xuanhe specifically reminded him that he clearly wanted to borrow their mouths and release the news.

The Duke of the Three Kingdoms first created momentum for the Sixth Prince. When there was a voice in the court to become a crown prince, the ministers with unique eyes would have to vigorously promote the various advantages of the Sixth Prince, and the Sixth Prince would naturally become the candidate for the crown prince "strongly recommended" by the ministers.

At that time, Emperor Xuanhe could reluctantly say, "Since all the beloved ministers elected the sixth prince, I will consider appointing the sixth prince."
