takes office

In October, Xue Chi was suddenly named the crown prince.

This incident was too shocking.

Not only Xue Chi was shocked, but also the court officials were shocked. Until he returned to the palace and showed the edict to Xue Mei, Xue Chi was a little unrealistic.

"...I have inherited the heavens and established my utmost importance, and have been virtuous forever to make the country prosperous. King Jiang Jin of Zhuang, who has a solid filial piety and virtue, has a brilliant style and a brilliant style, has given him a gold book and a treasure, and has made him the crown prince, and is in charge of the Eastern Palace, so as to respect the rule of ten thousand years. I sincerely tell the heaven, the ancestral temple, and the country..."

When Xue Mei saw the edict, she was stunned for a long time before she was sure that she had read it correctly.

"What are the reactions of court officials?" Xue Mei asked.

Xue Chi: "What else can you react? No one knows about this, and no news is revealed at all, and everyone is extremely surprised."

It's indeed very surprising.

In the past, when the crown prince was abolished, it was only a few years before the new crown prince was granted.

In this dynasty, Emperor Jianhong has been granted the crown prince three times, two of which were the crown prince Jiang Guan and one of which was the crown prince three.

There are intervals each time.

This time, without any warning, King Zhuang was granted the crown prince and allowed him to enter the Eastern Palace. Who can not be surprised?

The emperor is getting older and doing things is becoming more and more difficult to understand.

The government and the public were shocked about this matter, but the court officials were caught off guard and did not even bother to oppose it.

After the court was released, some court officials with interest would gather together to discuss the matter.

The Fifth Prince Party is definitely unwilling to give up, but now except for the fifth prince, there is no prince who can compete with King Zhuang, and there will not be many oppositions.

"I have said before that His Majesty has raised Jiang Feng back just to pull everyone out to practice.

So, Your Majesty regarded you as a person within the scope of your investigation two years ago. Compared with the fifth prince, you have passed Your Majesty's test.

Your Majesty did not make a decision on the temporary basis, and he had already decided to choose the prince." Xue Mei said.

Xue Chi was unmoved when she heard this.

He couldn't say he was very happy, and of course he was not unhappy either. After all, he had been planning for a long time.

That day Xue Mei planned to go into the palace and asked the emperor directly what he meant, but the emperor refused her.

Although the emperor did not see him, Xiao Jingcheng came.

Xiao Jingcheng has been coming at night and leaving during the day. He has never met Xue Chi a few times, but he can see Xue Mei every one or two days.

Xiao Jingcheng told Xue Chi: "Two months ago, shortly after Cheng Lanqing's rebellion, His Majesty asked someone to buy large-scale sacrifices.

At that time, Jiang Feng was only under house arrest in the Eastern Palace, but the emperor was ready to establish a new crown prince. Just so happened that Jiang Feng was killed by himself, and his gunpowder workshop was not handled completely, leaving a handle for the emperor."

In fact, no matter whether Jiang Guan is involved or not, the deposed crown prince or the establishment of a new crown prince will be connected. It is also around this time that the emperor has never changed his plan.

But he didn't reveal any of it.

"...Congratulations." Xiao Jingcheng said to Xue Chi, "Your Majesty is watching coldly, thinking that you are the blessing of the people of Chu. He does not like you, but he will choose a reliable king for the people of the world."

After hearing this, Xue Chi's tense shoulders loosened a little.

If the emperor suddenly wanted to be warm with him, he would feel disgusted. Until now, Xue Chi felt very uncomfortable after receiving the imperial edict.

However, Xiao Jingcheng's words untied his heart.

Indeed, there was no relationship between him and the emperor. The emperor wanted a son to inherit the throne, and Xue Chi only wanted to get this supreme position, hit it off and use each other.

"Tomorrow we should talk about sacrificial sacrifice to the Taimiao." Xue Chi finally answered.

Xiao Jingcheng: "Yes, I will be offering sacrifices tomorrow. I have a headache when I think of this. The heavy etiquette and court uniforms can make people breathless."

Xue Chi: "..."

Everyone wishes that their court uniforms will be heavier. Only if Xiao Jingcheng is a good product, I hope that the court uniforms can be lighter and comfortable to wear.

Do court suits make you feel comfortable? No.

Court ward is a symbol of identity and status. The heavier and more complicated it means that your social status is higher. Therefore, no one will dislike your higher status.

Only Xiao Jingcheng said such nonsense so casually.

The morning court the next day was unprecedentedly lively. The party factions within the Fifth Prince's Party were indeed fierce, and each of them had a strong attitude and expressed their opposition.

Others also felt that the establishment of the crown prince could slow down.

After everyone had arguing, the emperor said lightly: "I am sixty-five this year, and no one of my ancestors and ancestors has lived past sixty-five years.

How many years do you think I still have to live? If I suddenly collapse one day, who will inherit this country?"

Half of the court officials were silent and shut up. Indeed, at this age of the emperor, it is better to be appointed as a crown prince than to be later.

The Fifth Prince Party continued to say that the emperor should live the life of the future.

The emperor said to them: "My great-grandfather, grandfather, and my father are all emperors, and none of them can live long forever. As you said, are they inferior to me?

Who dares to argue about the predecessors?

The fifth prince party continued to talk about it, and it would be angered by the public.

After a dispute, this matter may be decided.

No matter how unlike the ninth prince, he must be the prince.

As for the ninth prince's leg flaw, someone took it out and said.

Some people even say that the ninth prince’s thigh injury is too high, and whether he can give birth and continue his offspring is a big problem.

"Have the emperor considered these?"

However, Xue Mei found an idea.

On this day, the court officials quarreled and barely discussed the time for the sacrifice. Xue Mei went to the fifth prince's mansion.

She hinted that Xue Chi was inhumane, so he would not marry over the years. If he really did not have his own son in the future, he might need to adopt him from his brothers.

"Princess, as a queen, how can you be a queen? The rights your husband gives you can take back at any time, and may even give more to others, because there will be many women in your husband. But the son is different, but the son has only one mother." Xue Mei said

Princess Ji: "..."

After Xue Mei left, Princess Ji kept ringing in her ears: "I have only one mother in my son!"

This sentence has already taken root in Princess Ji's heart. She suddenly didn't expect her husband to fight with His Royal Highness. She just hoped that His Royal Highness would be better for them.

Princess Ji is in charge of the finances of the Fifth Prince's Mansion. She is actually a bit important, and she has some influence on the Fifth Prince's Party.

After she felt relaxed, the fifth prince felt that inside and outside were out of control, as if he could not use his strength.

When he talked to the princess about this, the princess's attitude seemed a little cold, and she just said to him: "It's really not a good time, so it's better to slow down."

The fifth prince didn't know when he would go to slow down, but he felt that the slower he was, the less chance he would be.
