After leaving the word of warning, they ate some breakfast and hurried back to the capital. Those who came in chariots and horses have not seen anyone so far, so they can only meet them halfway.
The capital city is surging at the moment! In the Jinluan Hall, the emperor suddenly asked Eunuch Tian to announce the appointment of the fourteenth master Zhu Youbin as the new crown prince! Cui Xianxian, the four thousand gold of Cui Xiangguo, was named the crown princess. As soon as the holy paper came out, all civil and military officials fell silent!
The Fourteenth Master, who had been granted the title at the Golden Luan Hall, received the order in a daze, more surprised than pleasantly surprised. After thanking the emperor for his mighty grace, he stood in a daze on the Golden Luan Hall, and it took him a long time to realize that he was appointed as the prince! He was actually made the crown prince of the East Palace! The two elder brothers were fighting openly and secretly, but he always wanted to stay out of it, but at this moment, he was the one who was made the crown prince of the East Palace!
Among all the civil and military officials, half of them belonged to the empress. Although the rest did not agree with the emperor's appointment of the Fourteenth Lord as the crown prince, who would dare to speak out under the imperial decree? Even General Linghu had never approved of the Fourteenth Master in his heart, but the emperor did not seek the opinions of all the officials before making the crown prince this time.
Once the imperial decree is issued, it is the golden rule! Civil and military officials only have to obey. As for those who originally thought that the sixth prince of Qi Wang would be appointed as the crown prince; or those who thought that the ninth prince You Wang would inherit the position of prince, now they can only fall to the fourteenth prince.
After the Fourteenth Lord came out of the Golden Luan Hall, he was passed to the Empress' bedroom. The Empress was raising a glass and sipping the fine nectar, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, her face glowing. On her back, the eunuch Zhang Gonggong gently pinched her shoulders, and his lotus fingering was extremely elegant and skillful.
The Fourteenth Master knelt in front of Empress Lu Lu Yunzhen, without raising his head, and said depressedly: "I beg my mother Jin An! Mother, why did the father suddenly appoint this son as the crown prince? My son is terrified."
The corners of the queen's mouth curled up, she smiled and said with beautiful eyes: "Get up! Look at you, you are worthless, you are the crown prince, and you will be the emperor of the Great Yan Kingdom in the future! What are you afraid of? The father can stand You, that means that you are recognized by the emperor!"
The Fourteenth Master didn't get up, but still lowered his head and said: "However, I think that Brother Ninth is more suitable for the position of prince than I am."
The queen sneered: "If someone who is civil and martial arts is suitable for succession, then isn't your sixth brother, King Qi, also civil and military? Is he also suitable to succeed?"
The Fourteenth Lord suddenly raised his head and said: "Cui Wenyuan, the son of Prime Minister Cui, is not from the royal family, how could he..."
The Queen interrupted Master Fourteen, smiled and said: "Yes! That's right! He is not a royal family at all, not your father's son. In addition to being your father's son, he must also be your father's most beloved son What is the most suitable? What the emperor personally decreed is the most suitable! Our fourteenth master is the emperor's favorite, does this need any other reason?"
Fourteen sounds specious, but he never thought of being a prince, nor did he have the ambition to be an emperor. Faintly, he stayed in the capital to save his father, and suddenly he was favored by his father. Everything seemed to reveal some kind of plan, and this was the reason for his uneasiness.
The Fourteenth Lord insisted: "My queen, I still feel that King You is the one who can govern the country. My son is suitable for traveling around the world..."
Before the fourteenth master finished speaking, the queen interrupted: "Nonsense! Who is suitable and who is not, don't your mother and your father have no vision? The mother says you are suitable, and your father also recognizes you, so you will stand up. You are the prince. Don’t just say such despondent words that destroy your prestige! With the queen mother, who else is more suitable to be the prince than the son of this palace? The world of this big swallow should be the world of the queen’s descendants in the future.”
As the queen spoke, she stood up, with her sleeves folded, full of elegance and ambition. Standing behind her, Zhang Renhe was always slightly bent, with a very weak sense of presence.
The Fourteenth Master was silent, and asked after a while: "Why did you make Cui Xianxian the Crown Princess? My son thought that the candidate for the Crown Princess would be Duanmu Jichan." The Fourteenth Master said this not because he was special to Princess Duanmu, but because He was worried about the addition of Cui Xianxian to his family.
The queen said: "Duanmu Jichan is the princess of the Yue Kingdom after all, so she is not suitable to be made a crown princess. However, she has made the right bet! No matter how you say it, she will be a noble concubine in the future. At least, it is better than marrying King You." .”
When Lord Fourteen returned to his mansion, Princess Duanmu was furious and asked him to settle the score: "Fourteen, what about the position of Crown Princess? What kind of promise are you making? Am I your princess? Why do you Now that I'm a prince, I'm not a prince, so I want to make that Cui Xianxian the prince concubine?"
Fourteen was feeling depressed, and waved Princess Duanmu's hand and said, "Do you think that this is whoever I want to be established by Fourteen? I didn't know it beforehand, and my father declared me the crown prince just like that. I have the final say?"
Duanmu Jichan also knew that there was indeed no news about the Fourteenth beforehand, and the matter of establishing the crown prince came as soon as it was said! It thundered just now, and it rained immediately, and even she didn't feel it at all beforehand.
But now that the imperial decree is issued, the candidate for the crown princess is finalized! The princess is not her? ! Didn't she fail? If Fourteen promised her, she should be the candidate for Fourteen's crown princess, right
Duanmu Jichan felt that she married the right person! If she marries Master Jiu, let alone a crown princess, she won't even be a royal concubine in the future. Jiang is really old and spicy, both the ninth master and the sixth master can't beat the queen, and the crown prince really belongs to the fourteenth master.
It's just that this came too fast! Even Princess Duanmu was caught off guard. Her hand was thrown off by Fourteen, she embraced him again and asked, "Then, if you were to make the Crown Princess, who would you make?"
Fourteen is the prince now, and he will be the emperor in the future. Even if he can't choose his own princess, he can definitely choose the queen! Princess Duanmu thought further.
"Should I set it up?" The Fourteenth Master never thought about this question. However, when Princess Duanmu raised this question, a peerless figure appeared in his mind!
Linghu Shuiyue! Sister Shuiyue!
In his mind, only elder sister Linghu Shuiyue was worthy of being crowned concubine and then queen, and no one else was worthy.
Thinking of this, he was shocked! Thoughts come to a screeching halt. His mind turned sharply, he thought, wondering if they went to the snow mountain to look for snow ginseng, did they find it? Are you back
The last time the father was attacked, the person who attacked the father died, and the matter was handed over to the Ministry of Punishment for investigation. As a result, after a thorough investigation by the Ministry of Criminal Justice, it was said that the man was a disciple of Shenlongmen. Some people say that the master of Shenlongmen, "Yan Shen with silver face", is actually Zhu Youhong, brother of the Nine Emperors.
Fourteen didn't believe it, and never believed it. However, he happened to be there that day, and when the servant of the Ministry of Punishment reported it to his father, his father was furious. He just defended Brother Nine Emperors, but was reprimanded by his father and dared not speak out.
Therefore, he has been worried all the time, how will his father deal with Brother Nine? If Brother Nine is dealt with, Sister-in-law Nine Emperors will definitely be implicated.
