The capital is now in chaos.
The King of Jin rebelled and forced the palace, the prince was killed in the chaos of the rebellion, and there were countless casualties in the palace. The King of Jin was defeated and besieged, but he was shot and killed. This is what happened to outsiders, but what the truth is, many people still have doubts.
How could the crown prince be stabbed to death by the people of the King of Jin under the heavy guards? As for the King of Jin, who clearly had no one to order, who was the daring one who let the arrow go and killed him with one arrow.
The matter is too strange, people who think it is strange dare not say it, and those who dare to say it do not notice anything strange at all. After all, it was too chaotic at the time, and even those who thought it was strange were suspicious, but there was no evidence.
All in all, it was King Jin who was rebellious. When Emperor Xi was seriously ill and in a coma, he and his fellow brother King Qi, one led an army to rebel against the capital, and the other secretly joined many rebel parties in Beijing to force the palace. The prince also died in the process of forcing the palace. In the final analysis, it is the ambition of the king of Jin. Without his wolf ambition, none of this would have happened.
Fortunately, Emperor Xi finally woke up in this forced palace. Supporting the serious illness and picking up the mess, this is a fortune among misfortunes.
At least, the country's society has not been shaken for the time being.
Emperor Xi died two sons in a row, even if his personality changed drastically, he couldn't bear it for a while. It was clear that the arrangement was comprehensive, but they did not expect that the King of Jin would repair the plank road to cover Chencang.
Moreover, the incident happened too suddenly, and before Emperor Xi could react, both sons were killed.
The death of the prince was said to be the result of the king of Jin sending people to take advantage of the chaos. What about the king of Jin? Ming Ming Emperor Xi had already ordered people to surround the King of Jin. The order was to capture but not kill, and it was unknown who shot an arrow in the chaos, and the King of Jin was killed immediately.
When Emperor Xi received the news, he spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted on the spot. When he woke up again, he received the news that the prince had sent troops to block King Qi. During the melee between the two armies, King Qi had broken his arm.
Empress Xiao and Concubine Xu are more embarrassed than Emperor Xi. These two women are now crazy. One has died of their only son, and the other has two sons who died and the other disabled. Empress Xiao went directly to Xu Guifei Chunluan Palace, regardless of her decency, and the two had a disagreement. The palace servants next to them were killed only to stop them.
Emperor Xi had no time to take care of these things. He was so irritated that he became even more ill. He tried to clean up the mess and fell ill.
The affairs of the court were temporarily left to the two prime ministers. Empress Xiao was still in charge of the harem, but Emperor Xi also issued an edict that the matter of King Jin's rebellion had nothing to do with Concubine Xu, who was still a concubine.
Chengguo Gongfu, who conspired with the King of Jin to rebel, was raided and the whole family was imprisoned, waiting for the execution of Emperor Xi. However, the Marquis of Chengen did not fall because of Concubine Xu, but was imprisoned in Marquis Cheng'en's mansion. As for the other people involved, it was the gods who fought and the mortals who suffered, the people who ransacked their homes, and those who beheaded beheaded.
This once again confirms a sentence, there is no bottom line, it is not so easy to obtain from the dragon's power, if you are not careful, it will bring disaster to the whole family.
The real big heads have not been dealt with for the time being, and they are all small fish and shrimp. It's not that it can't be dealt with, but Emperor Xi doesn't speak, even the two prime ministers can only do superficial work temporarily, put things down first and then talk about other things.
And now the most important thing is to choose the future heir to the great line, because Emperor Xi sees that it is impossible.
Emperor Xi is very ill now, as if this incident completely drained all his energy. People can't even get up, and if they talk too much, they will get tired and faint.
And the people who inherit the great line are not very picky. Emperor Xi has five adult princes, and only these five princes. The prince died, the king of Jin died, and the king of Qi participated in the rebellion and was disabled. The only ones left were King Yun and King Jing.
But King Yun was timid and cowardly, and he was afraid of women. He had always had a bad reputation in Beijing, and King Jing had been dumb since he was a child. There are three sons under the prince's knees, but unfortunately none of them are direct sons, all of them are concubines.
Could it be that the future emperor of the Daxi Dynasty will be selected from the young children of the prince
For this move, Empress Xiao was very happy. If her son died, it would be meaningless for her grandson to take the throne. But there are too many ministers who have raised objections, including Prime Minister Xu, who do not approve of this move, not to mention a concubine Xu Gui who hates her to the bone.
Everyone in the palace said that Concubine Xu was worthy of being a favorite. Even if the prince who came out had committed such a taboo, Emperor Xi did not treat her, let alone abolish her position as a concubine, and even allowed her to enter and leave the Zichen Palace, including Empress Xiao now. There are no important things and you can't enter the Zichen Hall at will.
On this day, Concubine Xu Gui came to the Zichen Palace again.
As soon as he came in, he lay beside the dragon's bed and cried.
Concubine Xu cried a lot, talking about the good times she had with Emperor Xi, how innocent and lovely the two sons were back then, and how innocent King Jin was. My brother, King Jin would not do such a treacherous thing...
He also said that the other son, King Qi, has been reckless and loves to cause trouble since he was a child, but His Majesty has always favored him. The King of Qi has always followed the King of Jin's horse, and the younger son was also implicated by the elder son in this incident, and he was also punished. A good man lost a hand...
After so much preparation, Concubine Xu finally got to the point and directly said to Emperor Xi that he hoped that he would not choose the prince's concubine as his future successor, saying that Queen Xiao hated her and the King Jin now, and felt that the prince would die because of them. . But the deceased has passed away, and King Jin lost her life. She is now the only son, and she must not fall into the hands of Queen Xiao in the future.
She also said that Emperor Xi was gone, and she was not ready to live anymore, she was going to go with His Majesty. But her only remaining son, King Qi, was reluctant to lose her brother, father, and mother...
Emperor Xi was shocked by Concubine Xu's words. He had a heartache when he heard it, but at this time, he was quite moved. How quickly Empress Xiao cheered up after this incident, he knew in his heart. As soon as his son died, he began to jump around to want his grandson to succeed him.
In contrast, Concubine Xu was tearful every day, heartbroken, and now she said she would go with her...
After being married to Empress Xiao for decades, Emperor Xi still knew her well. Even if he dies, she will live well and be her empress dowager, even the great empress dowager. As for the woman Xu Guifei, he was really the only one. She originally had two sons, but now there is only one left.
Who is right and who is wrong in this chaos, Emperor Xi has lost his mind to distinguish, he can clearly feel that his spirit is not good, and he will have a splitting headache after thinking a little.
He patted Concubine Xu's hand, closed his eyes tiredly, and waved her down.
***
The eyes of the entire capital were fixed on who would be the future successor.
There has been a lot of movement in the Xiao family of the Duke of Yasukuni recently.
The death of the crown prince naturally makes them heartbroken, but the crown prince's heirs are also happy to see them succeed. The Xiao family can produce a great empress dowager, the Jingguo Gongfu is still the emperor's foreign family, and their Jingguo Gongfu is still the biggest winner.
The Xiao family secretly encouraged the ministers in the DPRK to frequently submit letters. Of course, there were those in favor, and there were also those who opposed it. Among them, a group of officials headed by Prime Minister Xu did not agree with this matter.
Because the prince's several concubines are not very old, the emperor is young, and his relatives must be powerful, and there is a Xiao family's empress dowager behind him. Maybe it's hard to say when the country changes its surname.
In the past few days, the court has been arguing around this matter.
Emperor Xi was seriously ill, and two prime ministers presided over the meeting. But the two prime ministers were fighting each other, and chaos in the court was inevitable.
At this moment, a small imperial censor of the imperial court spoke up.
This censor's surname is Guan and his name is Zheng. But what he played this time shocked the whole court.
Guan Zheng's performance was basically two things. First, the fifth prince, King Jing, had been cured of his mute illness, but he was always taciturn and few people knew about it. The second is that under its governance, Jingzhou is no longer the bitter and cold Jingzhou that it used to be. People live and work in peace and contentment, and everyone praises King Jing as a good vassal.
Of course, some people will ask, how do you know such detailed information. After checking Guan Zheng's resume, he found out that Guan Zheng had served as Zuo Changshi of the Department of Long History in Jingzhou, and he had just left the post for two years.
What used to be only one option has now become multiple options. The DPRK and Chinese officials who opposed the young master's accession to the throne have set their sights on Jingzhou, a place where they would never bet before.
After understanding it, King Jing's voice suddenly became louder.
Empress Xiao and Duke Jingguo started to panic again.
But this time, the incident did not last long. After a few days, Emperor Xi ordered his order to return to the capital.
It's self-evident why.
***
Although King Jing took Xiao Hua and two children away, he did not let them return to King Jing's mansion, but instead went to the capital.
The reason, King Jing told Xiaohua naturally, although Xiaohua didn't quite understand why, but she also knew that this was a major matter for His Royal Highness, so she obeyed King Jing's arrangement.
Not long after the family got together, they separated again.
Xiaohua and the two children were escorted to the capital first, while King Jing returned to the palace of King Jing.
King Jing said to Xiaohua that she took the child first, and he followed the imperial decree. In fact, things were not so simple.
The death of the crown prince is an irreversible matter. When a concubine inherits the great line and his own grandson inherits the great line, Queen Xiao and Duke Jingguo must choose the blood of the Xiao family. Now that Cheng Yaojin was killed halfway, how could the Xiao family easily admit defeat? !
Therefore, in the days before and after the imperial decree in Beijing arrived at King Jing's mansion, it would definitely not be calm.
Sure enough, not long after King Jing returned to the mansion, several waves of assassins were secretly ushered in the mansion. Among them, some were arrested before they even touched the mansion, and some were arrested when they entered the mansion and touched the wrong place. The most serious one was the assassin who touched the west courtyard. King Jing did not have any accidents. Qian lived in the corner room of the east wing. Xi was stabbed to death by the disaster of Yuchi.
In October of the thirty-fifth year of Xiyuan, Luo Jing, the fifth son of the emperor, returned to Beijing and opened the next chapter of the Daxi Kingdom.
The author has something to say: ps: Hey, ⊙﹏⊙ Khan, the details of what happened in Beijing must have taken a lot of space, so I mentioned it in general, and everyone should be able to know what happened in combination with the previous ones.
o(n_n)o Haha~ Of course, everyone can also think that it was a big move, and a meteorite fell from the sky to kill the Prince and King Jin directly~(≧▽≦)/~ Just kidding.
Don't think that Emperor Xi changed his mind because the imperial concubine cried twice. Even if an emperor is confused a lot of the time, he will definitely not be confused in this kind of thing. A young emperor, a great empress dowager surnamed Xiao, plus a prosperous Yasukuni mansion, ⊙﹏⊙Khan, unless Emperor Xi thought it would be better for his family to change his surname, he would only consider the prince's youngest son.
