Today, King Ning came home for dinner. After the family ate in some silence, King Li called his eldest son into the study.
"sit down!"
King Li greeted his son, "The tea is still the black tea you like."
Liu Mingguan smiled and took a sip of tea and sat down.
He himself is a Confucian gentleman, even his sitting posture appears to be strict.
King Li was not in the mood to appreciate that at this time. He asked directly, "In recent days, have the number of people surrounding Prince Ning's Mansion decreased sharply?"
"Um!"
Liu Ming raised his eyebrows and said, "There are probably more than a dozen waves of guests a day! But I won't see them most of the time, just like before."
"Hey!"
King Li frowned, "Is it the same now as before? In the past, I was just following the crowd, but now I am the one who really wants to support you! If you don't show up, wouldn't it chill their hearts?"
Liu Mingguan said: "What should be mine is mine, and those who should support me will not give up because of external forces. If there is really no one to support me, it proves that I do not have the qualifications."
"Nonsense!"
Prince Li said angrily, "What do you mean you are not qualified? We don't even know whether the children in the concubines' wombs are boys or girls! Even for a prince, whether he can grow up alive or not is still a problem! Leave an adult like you alone Is it a responsible attitude to choose a young prince who carries great risks instead of choosing a prince?"
The news about the happiness of the concubines in the palace cannot be hidden from anyone at all.
In other words, someone simply let everyone know on purpose.
"And the two concubines became pregnant, which greatly increased the emperor's confidence and suddenly changed everyone's mood.
If the emperor never has a prince, then it is obvious that the next emperor must be Liu Mingguan.
"If the emperor gives birth to a prince in a few years, it will be the same. It is too dangerous for a young prince to succeed, so Liu Mingguan should still be the one.
But the problem is that now the emperor is about to have a prince again, and two concubines have them in their bellies. When the emperor is almost 49 years old this year, it becomes very subtle.
¡°We are not fools, we all have our own considerations.
"If someone believes that the emperor can live for another twenty years, then there is no need to think about anything. They must honestly support the little prince born by the emperor.
Twenty years later, Liu Renhuai was sixty-seven years old, Miao Yan was sixty-three years old, and Ge Songdao was sixty-two years old.
Although they are a little older, as long as they stay in the government, they can suppress almost all opposition voices.
Not to mention the presence of the Imperial Guard who swore allegiance to the emperor.
The Forbidden Army has been deeply favored by the Emperor for more than eighty years. If someone wants to hurt the Emperor first and violate the Emperor's wishes, they will teach these guys how to behave.
Oh, right.
Twenty years later, General Xiong Quwei Li Nanyuan was only fifty-six years old, General Jinwuwei Jun Kaiyue was fifty-seven years old, and Pan Yunchen, who was transferred from Qianniuwei to General Leopard Cavalry Guard, was fifty-nine years old.
At that age, it may be a little difficult to fight a war, but controlling the imperial army to be loyal to the emperor is no problem at all.
The rules about factions and the order of seniority in the army are much more inherited than those in the imperial court.
Even Gao Jing, the vicious snake-like General Xiuyiwei, was only sixty-three years old. These courtiers knew very well how terrifying Xiuyiwei was.
Let's see!
With so many advantages, who dares to betray the emperor?
Especially when the prince has reached adulthood.
However, if the emperor dies within ten years, things will be different.
The appearance of an emperor who is only a few years old is a disaster in any dynasty.
"Compared to Liu Mingguan, this young prince is not so impressive.
"Perhaps the imperial army will support him, but the old monks and scribes in the imperial court should be inclined to Liu Mingguan.
Now King Li thinks very clearly in his mind.
I hope that the emperor¡¯s eldest brother¡¯s children will all be daughters, or that the prince will die young, so that his son will have hope.
Although Liu Mingguan is a gentleman, it does not mean that he is stupid.
He understood what his father meant, but he still insisted on his own thoughts: "Dad, the most important thing is that we do our own thing well. I will seriously continue to enrich myself and actively prepare for the future But if God's will is not on our side, , what is there to regret? Isn¡¯t it enough honor for us to be two princes from the same family?Responsible, he also agreed with this point.
¡°Succinct, accurate, convenient, and so meticulous, it is most suitable for the habits of Legalists.
But Cao Yi asked again, "When will the craftsmen who made the explosives and the explosives they made bring back?"
¡°When I left, they were already preparing to call it a day.¡± Zhong Chang said, ¡°I sent documents to Xiong Wenqing, and the two thousand garrison troops in the Gyeonggi area will still be responsible for escorting them.¡±
"It's best to be careful." Cao Yi said thoughtfully, "Let the Longteng Guards send an additional two thousand people."
"Can!"
Emperor Jinghe said.
On the one hand, he was happy that the gate of hell was about to be brought under control, but on the other hand, he was still very cautious about such powerful explosives.
"Who will be responsible after coming back?" Emperor Jinghe asked harmoniously.
"Miss Wu," Zhong Chang said, "Duke Yan followed Fang Lei. Miss Wu was not interested in going to Jiangnan to play, so she followed him back."
"It's Frosty Girl again!"
Mentioning Wu Yeshuang, Emperor Jinghe felt even more at ease, "Okay, I have troubled her in the past two years Sigh, but I will have to invite her to the palace after a while and let the queen ask her, if there is any There¡¯s no one I like! Otherwise, I would be so ashamed of her and Shouchang. Shouchang is still busy in Shandong and hasn¡¯t even come back during the New Year!¡±
Shouchang is Wu Yu, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, and the father of Wu Yeshuang.
"It's difficult, Miss Witch doesn't seem to be interested in this." Zhong Chang made a rare gossip, "But she is quite familiar with King De, and she can often feed him."
"Eh when you say that, it seems okay!" Cao Yi nodded.
Emperor Jinghe rolled his eyes at the old prime minister, "Please! Prime Minister Cao, Shuang girl is almost thirty years old this year! Mingqi is only eighteen! Can the two of them be together? If she is allowed to be Mingqi's concubine, the Queen Mother must not Curse me to death?"
Cao Yi smiled sarcastically and said nothing.
Zhong Chang took over the words: "But we really can't afford to waste time. For women among the people, their children are already teenagers at this age!"
"Um!"
Emperor Jinghe turned to Zhao Shou and said, "Zhao Shou, remember this for me. When I get back, I will mention it to the queen and try to get the matter of Shuang Yatou settled this year!"
"According to the order!"
Zhao Shou remembered this.
There was nothing envious about the people on the sidelines.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? The merits and hard work of these great witch Yeshuang in the river and the Ministry of Works alone are worthy of any emperor to look at him with special eyes! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
