Chapter 251 Reserve (1)
Soon, Emperor Yongjia arrived.
The ministers immediately returned to their place, and the princes led the way and bowed together.
Emperor Yongjia smiled and said, "Don't give me a favor, I'll be calm."
Since the decision to become the crown prince was made, Emperor Yongjia was straightforward and neat. Before the ministers could indirectly attack, he took the initiative to speak: "I have an important thing announced today."
"I am nearly forty years, and it is time to become the crown prince."
"The second prince Li Jing is my only legitimate son. He is extremely intelligent since childhood, and he can never forget everything at a glance. He is also humble and generous, and can be a great responsibility."
"I will issue an imperial edict today to make the second prince the crown prince. What do you think of all the beloved ministers?"
All the ministers agreed and praised Li Jing as unparalleled in the world.
Li Jing was very humble and stepped forward and bowed: "The father loved his son and ministers, and his son was very happy. However, the son and ministers were still young, and they were afraid that they could not bear the heavy responsibility and failed his father's expectations."
Emperor Yongjia looked at Li Jing with a compliment that he had never seen in his life: "You have never disappointed me. I believe that my vision is right."
"I hope that you are an outstanding prince. From now on, I can pass on the country to you with confidence."
Even though he knew this was a scene, a torrent flashed through Li Jing's heart.
Perhaps, this is the feeling shared by all sons in the world. It is really not easy to get a praise from my father.
Li Jing knelt down and said aloud: "My son will do his best to do his best and will never let down his father's expectations."
The civil servant was headed by Qiao Ge Lao. Of course, Qiao Ge Lao refused to let him go and stood up first: "The state has a crown prince, and the people are at peace, and the old minister is extremely relieved. The old minister congratulates the emperor."
When the Marquis of Guangping did not attend court, the generals, led by King Xingyang, bowed and congratulated: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is both civil and military, treats people generously and is unparalleled in intelligence. In the future, he will be able to serve as the crown prince. I congratulate the emperor and congratulate the successors of the Great Wei Dynasty."
It's indeed his father-in-law.
Then I changed my words and called the prince.
The civil servants include Qiao Ge Lao, the military generals include King Xingyang, and the foreign family and wife clan are powerful. The second prince is the legitimate son of Queen Qiao. Look left and right, the position of this prince is his!
All the ministers bowed and congratulated each other, and today's court meeting was spent in praise of the newly appointed Prince.
Emperor Yongjia ordered the Secretariat of the Central Secretariat to write an edict to read it out.
After the morning court, this imperial edict will be revealed to the world. The formal ceremony of the crown prince must be prepared for a period of time, at least a few months later.
However, with this imperial edict, the ministers can already change their names to the crown prince.
...
After the court was dispersed, several princes of Emperor Yongjia, including Emperor Xuan, entered the Wenhua Hall.
The princes each guessed the intention of Emperor Yongjia.
The first one to bear the brunt is naturally the eldest prince.
"How do you feel when I make your second brother the crown prince?"
Emperor Yongjia deserves to be the emperor. After making the decision, he abandoned his preference for the eldest prince and asked a heart-defeating statement: "Are you convinced?"
The eldest prince felt nervous and did not hesitate at all. He immediately responded: "The second brother is the legitimate son of the father and emperor. In terms of identity, no one can match. In terms of intelligence, we brothers are even worse than him. The second brother is the prince, and I am convinced."
"Although I am a few years older than my second brother, my status has been determined. In the future, I will definitely put my second brother first and do my best to assist me."
Emperor Yongjia glanced at the eldest prince deeply: "I heard everything you said. I also hope that you remember what you said today."
"Brothers are in order. However, there is a difference between the king and the minister, and it is even before the brothers and sisters. It is your blessing to be able to think clearly and understand clearly. If you can't figure it out and have mistakes in your words and actions, I will not let you go."
The bitterness surged from the bottom of the heart and spread rapidly throughout the body, even the mouth was filled with a bitter taste.
The eldest prince retorted in his heart and respectfully said: "My son remembers the teachings of his father."
Li Jing was also sighing when he looked at this scene.
Emperor Yongjia personally opened his mouth to beat the eldest prince with good intentions. It can also be seen that Emperor Yongjia protected the eldest prince. Otherwise, he could wait until the eldest prince made a mistake in his behavior and then make a tough move. The eldest prince would naturally become honest and peaceful when he was beaten.
Now, this is not only a blow but also a telling him that the newly appointed prince should put aside the monarch and his subjects and have brothers and sisters.
Li Jing calmed down and bowed and said, "Father, please listen to your son's words."
Emperor Yongjia looked over and said, "If you have anything to say, please tell me."
The stage was set up, and Li Jing naturally had to cooperate to sing the good show: "The father made his son and minister the crown prince, and the son and minister were happy and confused. The son and minister were young and had little understanding of the affairs of the court, and there was still a lot of things to learn."
"Brother is three years older than me and is good at military affairs. My son and I will learn more from my elder brother in the future. The right way is to work together."
Sure enough, Li Jing's words entered Emperor Yongjia's heart.
Emperor Yongjia's expression was much more visible and gentle: "You can think so, it can be seen that the books of sages that have been passed for many years have not been read in vain. As the saying goes, brothers in war, fathers and sons are soldiers. You are brothers, brothers and close relatives. No matter when you reach the end, you must keep this in mind."
Li Jing and the eldest prince agreed in unison.
One looks more respectful than the other.
Li Hao sneered in his heart and bowed forward: "Listen to your father's words is better than to study hard for ten years. My son remembers his father's teachings and will definitely listen to your second brother in the future and respect your eldest brother."
The fourth prince was unwilling to let the other side and said seriously: "My son is stupid and can't tell any big truth.My son will definitely follow the second brother's leader in the future. Whatever the eldest brother says, Mr. will definitely listen."
If the eldest brother and the second brother have a conflict, who will you listen to?
Let’s talk about it then!
Li Jing understood the implication of the Fourth Prince, and the eldest prince also understood the meaning. The two of them laughed in their hearts at the same time.
This Li Xian is still so sloppy.
Of course, Li Hao is not a good person either. Don’t look serious and posing with a respectful look, you may be thinking about something in your heart.
The sons are all older, and each one has their own plans and thoughts. Although Emperor Yongjia is the emperor, he cannot take out his sons' hearts and see what they are thinking inside.
Anyway, this statement made Emperor Yongjia very satisfied.
Emperor Yongjia smiled and said, "Okay, my sons are all good. Such a great event must be celebrated. A few months later, the official crown prince ceremony will be held in person today, and all the important officials will come. You brothers and sisters will come."
The princes responded happily.
Li Hao smiled and said, "Father, my fifth brother is studying in the study room, and I don't know this good news yet. Let him come too!"
Yes, I almost forgot that there is a fifth prince.
