Chapter five hundred and fortieth reserve (2)
The flame in the eldest prince's chest was mixed with anger and jealousy, and a strong reluctance.
He was the eldest son of his father's beloved, and he was favored by his father since he was a child. He entered the court at the age of fifteen and often accompanied him, so even the second prince who was born in the legitimate state was firmly suppressed by him.
He always regarded the second prince as his biggest opponent. He never expected that in the end, he was not defeated by the second prince, but the young sixth prince.
The Sixth Prince is only thirteen years old after the New Year! He is still a young boy with a stinky breast!
Apart from studying, his skills in riding and shooting are all ordinary!
Such an old, calm and heavy-hearted prince, he was suppressed by a young boy who had not grown enough. How could he be willing to do so!
The eldest prince gritted his teeth hard and squeezed out his smile with his remaining rationality.
The fourth and fifth princes were also quite depressed.
However, it is much better than the eldest prince. After all, there are grand elder brothers and legitimate second brothers on them. Emperor Xuanhe would not make the sixth prince the crown prince, and most of them would not fall into the two of them.
Those who express joy in their emotions without any concealing their good mood are the only ones who are happy.
All the ministers and generals of Yong'an Hou Chunfeng's proud faces were all in their eyes, and they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.
This Yong'an Marquis was a loyal lackey of the second prince in the past. The second prince completely lost his power and turned his carriage and horses to the sixth prince so quickly.
Who makes people live a good life? It is Empress Pei's elder brother and the uncle of the Sixth Prince. As soon as the Sixth Prince was appointed as the crown prince, the Marquis of Yong'an took advantage of the situation and stood again among the confidant officials of Emperor Xuanhe.
...
After the court was dispersed, the eldest prince took the initiative to walk to the sixth prince and patted the sixth prince on the shoulder intimately: "Sixth brother, congratulations."
It is difficult for the eldest prince to adjust his mood in such a short time and cover up the jealousy in his heart.
The Sixth Prince knew it and showed a shy smile on his face: "I am still young and there are many things I need to learn. If you have any questions in the future, please ask the eldest brother for advice."
"That's certain." The eldest prince smiled and said, "Brothers are like brothers and feet, and it is the right thing to do to help each other."
The fourth and fifth princes also came over and congratulated the sixth prince: "Congratulations to the sixth brother."
"After the enthronement example is carried out, the sixth brother is the prince of the Great Chu. Although we are older, we should respect our sixth brother. We should obey our sixth brother in everything."
The sixth prince was personally taught by Emperor Xuanhe for more than a year and made great progress. At this time, he responded to several brothers and was at ease: "The fourth and fifth brothers are so serious. If you encounter any problems, we will go to ask your father for advice."
The fourth and fifth princes looked at each other and snorted coldly in their hearts.
As soon as this Xiaoliu was named the crown prince, his confidence in speaking was more reliable than before. They said just now, "I will listen to my sixth brother in everything." It was obvious that it was a test. Xiaoliu was not polite and accepted it directly.
At this moment, Eunuch Zhao walked over with a smile and bowed to the princes: "Your Highness, the slaves, follow the emperor's orders, ask the princes to go to Baohe Palace for lunch together."
Several princes responded together.
Emperor Xuanhe was in a very good mood, and Empress Pei was also smiling today.
The emperor and the queen sat on the upper head, the sixth prince sat on the lower head of Emperor Xuanhe, and the eldest prince, the fourth prince, the fifth prince, and the second prince, and the second prince, were sitting in turn.
The crown prince has a certain title, and the sixth prince is the first among the princes. The sixth prince looks calm, and the eldest prince, the fourth prince, the fifth prince, does not mention how aggrieved the eldest prince, and the smile on his face is without any grudges.
After lunch, Emperor Xuanhe said to the eldest prince and others: "I have made Xiaoliu the crown prince. Are you brothers dissatisfied?"
Of course I don’t agree!
One thousand one hundred are dissatisfied!
The eldest prince said first: "The sixth brother is a legitimate child, and is extremely intelligent and has a kind temperament. The father and emperor made the sixth brother the crown prince, and the son and minister were convinced."
The fourth prince smiled and said, "Don't worry, Father. As long as the sixth brother does not dislike the mediocreness of his son, he is willing to send him to his sixth brother."
The fifth prince also responded without hesitation: "What I think is the same as the eldest and fourth brothers."
The sixth prince hurriedly stood up and said, "I am ashamed of what my brothers said. My brothers have their own strengths, so I want to learn more from my brothers. I dare not take it as the word "sent" and I dare not take it. We are the people who are in the great Chu country and the country in the morning."
This scene is spoken neatly and beautifully!
Emperor Xuanhe's eyes flashed with praise: "Okay! You are all very good! I also hope that your brothers will be harmonious and have a blind date with each other. You all know the allusion of the Xiao Wall that caused disaster, and I don't need to say more."
The princes bowed together and said: "My son is obeying the teachings of his father."
As the "mother of the second prince", Empress Pei was a great opportunity to plead for the second prince. She said reluctantly: "Emperor, Xiao Liu was appointed as the crown prince. This is a major event in the country and a happy event in the Tian family. Such a grand event is always unbeautiful if you lack Yuantai."
While speaking, he winked at the Sixth Prince.
The sixth prince understood and immediately took the conversation: "What the queen said is, the second brother did something wrong, and the emperor ordered him to be banned from his foothold to show punishment. This clampdown has been almost a year. In a few days it will be the New Year, and the emperor will summon the second prince and his second sister-in-law to the palace! My nephew is almost one year old, and I, an uncle, have not seen it with my own eyes. My father and mother must also want to see the grandson."
Emperor Xuanhe looked faint and did not comment.
The eldest prince, the fourth prince and the fifth prince also spoke out to plead for the second prince.
Emperor Xuanhe then opened his mouth: "Xiao Liu, in a few days, you will go to the Second Prince's Mansion and pass on my oral order. Order the Second Prince and the Second Prince's concubine to enter the palace to attend the palace banquet at the end of the year."
The Sixth Prince responded with respect.
The eldest prince sneered in his heart.
Among the brothers, the second prince is the narrowest-minded and self-reliable. The sixth prince, who was appointed as the crown prince, went to the second prince's mansion to pass oral instructions. I think there is another excitement to watch.
...
The emperor's imperial edict to establish the crown prince was soon announced to the world.
The establishment of a crown prince is a happy event for the country and requires a general amnesty for the whole world. There are rewards in and outside the palace.
The people in the capital were actually not familiar with all the princes, but after knowing that the Great Chu had the Prince of the Eastern Palace, they were all very happy.
The saying that the state-owned crown prince is at peace is by no means false.
The sixth prince who has successors and is a legitimate sixth prince who is born in the queen and has a reputation as a virtuous person. Even a person with other thoughts, he thought of the gentle, kind, respectful, frugal, and easy-going sixth prince who treats others easily and easily, so he must admit that the sixth prince is quite like a benevolent king.
The Imperial Heavenly Priest calculated the auspicious day, and the crown prince’s enthronement ceremony was scheduled for March of the next year. It was enough to have three months to plan and prepare.
Shangshu Liang was no longer crying and poor. No matter how empty the national treasury was, there was still money to prepare for the crown prince’s enthronement ceremony.
