Nayan inspected the sacrificial altar several times.
They also ordered people to re-order the materials needed for the next year's festival in various places, so as not to miss them.
He must do it all!
That way you can leave in peace.
He did not leave the palace directly, but went to the bedroom of King Huyi.
Report on the progress of the festival.
When King Hu Yi heard this, he was very satisfied.
"In previous years, it was handed over to the Ministry of Rites. This year, it was handed over to you. I was still a little worried. Now that you have done it properly, I am relieved."
This year's progress is indeed much faster than before.
And everything is well arranged.
It can be seen that Na Yan's work is really reassuring.
Compared with the reckless third prince, this is like a sky and a place.
Obviously, Nayan belongs to the former.
Na Yan lowered his head, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and said, "My son will do it well, and I will never let down my father's hopes."
King Hu Yi immediately said: "It's not a hope, it's just that you are more stable, let you take over and see! After all, you have been leading troops outside all these years, and you have rarely intervened in the affairs of the court. Fortunately, the war has ceased in the past few years. Stop, you are finally entering the DPRK
, all aspects need to be stepped up. "
"Yes, Erchen understands."
At least King Hu Yi is willing to give him a chance!
This is a good start.
In fact, everyone in the court knows that the most important thing for King Huyi is blood. That Queen Tuo was born and is the direct son. From the moment he was born, his future was almost doomed, and everyone was waiting for him to grow up. As an adult, he ascends the throne as a king, therefore,
There are many defectors around him, but until Nayan returned to the DPRK, everything changed drastically.
Duke Wang Guo, who had previously remained neutral, saw that the situation had changed, and immediately surrendered to Nayan.
to help him be king.
And some sober ministers also saw the situation clearly and believed that the second prince was more likely to become the new king of Huyi, even if... he was not a direct descendant.
After all, since ancient times, emperors have always lived among the wise!
Compared with Na Yan, who has been on the battlefield all the year round, Na Tuo is a little more extravagant, but he lacks the ambition to dominate the country.
Even the heirs, there is a day when the horse stumbles.
What's more, King Hu Yi is not stupid, can't hand over the country to a heir who only knows how to be pampered
Presumably within a few years, there must be "holes" in the country!
It was because everyone saw this clearly that they turned to Nayan.
Divide the previously one-sided situation into two.
A contradictory situation was formed.
Nayan is superior to Natuo in terms of intelligence and action.
This time, the fact that King Huyi asked Na Yancao to hold the annual festival proves this.
It can be seen who the throne is, remains to be determined.
After Na Yan reported the New Year's festival, he didn't continue to disturb King Hu Yi's rest, he simply said a few words, and then hurried out.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the palace, he saw a group of guards from the inner palace passing by...
At the moment, his eyes fell on one of the guards.
It seems a little familiar.
Can't remember for a while.
He asked the eunuch at the door, "What happened to those guards?"
The little eunuch replied: "Go back to the king, that is the guard beside the king. Because the annual festival is approaching, Master Li ordered them to patrol outside the hall and not stay away."
"Guard?"
"Yes."
Na Yan narrowed his eyes and watched the line of guards walk away.
Why do you always feel that one of the guards has seen it himself
But what is certain is that it is definitely not seen in the palace.
The guards of King Huyi have always been stationed in the palace, and it is impossible to leave the palace. If they have not seen it in the palace, where have they seen it
The eunuch saw him staring into the distance, so he whispered, "Your Highness?"
His mind was pulled back.
Get it sorted quickly.
He coughed twice, looked back at the inner hall, and instructed: "The New Year's Eve is approaching, you must watch carefully, and nothing happens."
"The slave knows."
"If you find anything unusual, you must report this king immediately."
"Yes." The little eunuch bent down.
Nayan walked away.
out of the palace.
As soon as he left, Li Qiao walked out from behind the main hall.
Looking deeply at the direction that Yan left.
He was also accompanied by a eunuch.
The eunuch asked: "Sir, these two princes, shouldn't they have found anything?"
Li Qiao calmly said with certainty: "No, if he knows, he must go in and report to the king now."
"That's right, what's the next step?"
"Everything in the palace has been arranged, just waiting for the New Year's Eve. You are with the king that day, and you must act according to the plan."
"The slave knows."
Li Qiao said "um".
He went into the hall to see King Huyi.
As soon as he entered, he saw King Hu Yi looking at a stack of paper full of words.
He stood aside and asked, "Your Majesty, is this?"
King Huyi said, "This is the scripture I asked Atuo to copy."
"It turns out that the third prince has already copied it."
"The handwriting is neat, and it took a lot of thought."
Li Qiao didn't dare to say more, only said: "I heard that the lord has remorse in his heart and felt that it was really reckless to lead the troops into the second palace before, so this scripture took several nights to write."
King Hu Yi smiled.
Putting the scriptures in his hand aside, he asked Li Qiao, "I ask you, what do you think of A Tuo's invasion of the Second Prince's Mansion with his troops?"
"...I don't understand the meaning of the king?"
"You are so smart, how can you not understand?"
Li Qiao didn't say anything, he probably guessed something in his heart, but he was not good at words, so he chose to shut up and wait for King Hu Yi to say it himself.
King Hu Yi frowned and said with a serious face: "A Tuo has grown up by my side since he was a child. Although he acts impulsive, he is never good at stealing! This time it was rumored that there was a secret room in the second prince's mansion, but it turned out to be an ice cellar. some things are definitely not
There will be vacancies! It's just that A Tuo was too impatient and fell into the trap. "
Only then did Li Qiao boldly accept the words and said, "Your Majesty is suspicious, and this matter is simply planned by the second prince?"
"It doesn't matter if it's true or not. It's just that since someone has committed a crime, there should be a reward and a punishment! This time, A Tuo's punishment is a little lighter, so the reward should be heavier in order to calm down."
As expected of a thousand-year-old fox!
Li Qiao suddenly said: "No wonder the king will hand over the matter of the annual festival to the second prince. It turned out to be intentional to quell the matter."
"You actually guessed it in your heart."
"It's the Great King Shengming."
King Hu Yi didn't bother to pursue these anymore.
It's over anyway.
I don't want to make any more waves.
So as not to stir up and down into a mess.
Anyway, it's a good thing to calm down!
…
Nayan came out of the palace and was thinking on the carriage back to the palace.
Still thinking about the guard I saw outside the hall just now.
Can't think of a reason why.
Maybe... I'm too sensitive.
So suspicious!
What a big event the annual festival is, who would dare to interfere in it!
He shook his head.
Organize your thoughts!
