Otherworldly Days

Chapter 495 The Emperor's Heart

The court hall suddenly fell silent, and Emperor Yongkang, who was sitting on the dragon chair, glanced around, seeing the reactions of his courtiers, paused, and then continued, "The matter of the establishment of the crown prince, I will give it a try. I've made a decision in my heart."

"The eldest prince, Feng Lingcheng, was born in succession to my concubine, who was married to me when I was still the crown prince. It's a pity...the eldest prince and Feng Lingcheng left early and early. The eldest prince, Feng Lingcheng, has been taught by Taifu Lu for many years. Poetry etiquette, full of talent and learning, gentle conduct, good morals, my heart is very comforted. The eldest prince Feng Lingcheng is my eldest son, according to the ancestral system, establish a son and elder, so I decided to appoint the eldest prince Feng Lingcheng Prince."

The palace attendant holding the imperial decree read out the imperial decree, and the appointment of the crown prince will be announced to the world, and a day will be chosen to complete the crown prince's canonization ceremony.

The left and right prime ministers assisted the prince, Lu Taifu, and the important officials in the court to assist the prince to manage the world.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live..." All the officials in the court kowtowed.

The appointment of the crown prince has been debated for a long time by hundreds of officials in the court, and only then has a conclusion been reached.

Feng Lingcheng was stunned for a moment, even he himself didn't expect that he would be canonized as the crown prince, his father was not satisfied with him, he thought that he had no chance to be the crown prince, but he didn't expect that one day he would hear with his own ears that he was appointed as the crown prince. Standing as the prince, he didn't know whether he was surprised or happy for a moment, and stood there unresponsive.

After being reminded by someone nearby, Feng Lingcheng quickly knelt down and shouted loudly, "I thank my father, my emperor, long live, long live, long live, long live."

Emperor Yongkang, who was sitting on the dragon chair, saw the eldest emperor who was kneeling down, and glanced at the fourth emperor who was following behind, feeling a little complicated.

The emperor knew in his heart who would be the crown prince was the best for Dafeng and the one who could govern Dafeng the best, but the emperor's mind was unpredictable, and only the emperor's decision was the final decision.

Like everyone else, Feng Lingxiao knelt down with a calm expression on his face. He had already expected this day. If his father would appoint the crown prince one day, it would definitely not be his turn to be the crown prince.However, whether you can secure that position in this world depends on your ability!

For some people, even if the dragon chair is held in front of him, he may not be able to sit well and stably.

Before the last step, who knows who is sitting in that seat!

Why is it Feng Lingcheng? !Feng Linglan felt aggrieved in his heart, obviously his fourth brother was the best among all the princes, why didn't his father make his fourth brother the crown prince, but the idiot who knew nothing as the crown prince?

All the officials heard that His Majesty appointed the eldest prince as the crown prince, and the faces of the veterans who supported the establishment of the eldest prince as the prince showed a smile. It should be like this. If the eldest prince is born successively, the eldest prince should be appointed as the crown prince. Prince.

Even if the rest are dissatisfied in their hearts, the five princes who will be sent out in the future will lead the troops improperly, lose the battle, and let Zi Nu join my Dafeng. Presumably, when the fifth prince returns, he will be asked about his guilt. This guilt cannot be escaped. .

As for the rest of the princes, the second and fifth princes were born of noble lords, their identities cannot be justified, the seventh prince's father is humble, and the twelfth prince, who is only a few months old, is still young, let alone the latter.Therefore, it is reasonable and reasonable to appoint the eldest prince as the crown prince, so even if they have other ideas in their hearts, they have to accept the fact that their Majesty appointed the eldest prince as the crown prince.

The happiest thing was Feng Lingcheng, who felt as if his head had been hit by gold falling from the sky, and he still felt dizzy when he got up now, with a smirk on his face.

"A loyal general of the Li family guarded the border for my Dafeng, expelled Zinu, and made great military exploits." Speaking of the Li family, even the old emperor wiped away his tears. The old general taught riding and archery, so he still wants to call old general Li a teacher, no matter how much he has scruples about the Li family in his heart, now that the Li family is gone, what is left in Yongkang Emperor's heart is good Recalling, he would think that if General Li was still there, Zinu would not be able to break through the gates of the town, nor would they be able to enter Dafeng.

However, the past is over, and all the loyalists of the Li family died in battle.

"Today I posthumously confer the title of Marquis of Changping on Li Cheng, and his posthumous title is An." Emperor Yongkang conferred the title of Marquis of Changping on the deceased Li, in fact, to appease his four emperors. There is also a grandson brought out by Li Cheng, isn't he?

When the Li family was still there, the Feng family was afraid of the Li family who held the military power. Now that the Li family is dead, they have been granted the title of Marquis of Changping.

A person's death is like a lamp being extinguished, and no amount of fame is but a false name.

"The fourth prince, Feng Lingxiao, has both literary and martial arts strategies, wisdom and bravery. Therefore, the fourth prince, Feng Lingxiao, is canonized as the general who suppresses the north, bestowed with tiger charms, and in charge of the military power in the northwest. From now on, he will lead troops to the northwest, expel Zinu from my great phoenix, and secure my greatness." Feng Baibai." Half of the blood of the Li family flowed on his four emperors, and the other half was their Feng family's blood. Emperor Yongkang knew that the talent of his four emperors was above all his brothers, and he could not be crowned prince. Give this Fourth Emperor's son the military power in his hands. Emperor Yongkang felt that he was most satisfied with this arrangement. It is most appropriate to have the military power in his own hands, so that the entire Dafeng is in the hands of their Feng clan. inside.It's a pity that Emperor Yongkang didn't know that it was his biggest mistake that he handed over the military power to Feng Lingxiao today.

As soon as Lu Taifu heard that His Majesty handed over the military power to King Yi, he subconsciously felt bad, and he immediately closed his mouth.He has not forgotten that his grandson has just been registered as the crown prince. If he objects to His Majesty giving the military power to King Yi at this time, he can't change this matter. His Royal Highness kept it in mind.

As long as his grandson becomes emperor one day, won't it be easy to get back the military power?

The palace attendant read out the imperial decree, "...no edict and no return to court, hereby!"

Emperor Yongkang gave the military power to King Yi, which means that King Yi took over the duties of the Li family, guarding the gate of the town, and had to return to the court without edicts, otherwise it would be regarded as disobedience!

"My son, take the decree, thank you father!" Feng Lingxiao raised his head, glanced at father sitting on the dragon chair, knelt down to salute, and said word by word.

Hearing this, Liang Xiang's face changed slightly, and he felt a little anxious.

"Father..." Feng Linglan became anxious, how could his father be like this, appoint Feng Lingcheng as the crown prince, but let his fourth brother go to fight with Zinu? Said that his fourth brother was also asked to guard the gate of the town, and he could not return to the court without an edict. If he did not order his fourth brother to return to the court, wouldn't his fourth brother have to guard the gate of the town for the rest of his life?

The Li family had all died fighting to guard the gate of the town. It wasn't too unfair for his father to treat his fourth brother like this.

"Well, get up." Emperor Yongkang was very satisfied with his arrangement.

After being glanced at by his fourth brother, Feng Linglan shut up, not daring to fight for his fourth brother.

Furthermore, regarding the plague in the south, Emperor Yongkang directed a civil servant to go there, assisted by a general, and the two of them took several imperial physicians and the money and food distributed by the court to the south to control the plague.

This matter was ordered one by one, and the big stones in Emperor Yongkang's heart were also put down one by one.When Zinu is expelled from the north and the floods and plagues in the south are cured, they will surely be able to continue for hundreds of years.

"Retirement—" "Long live my emperor, long live, long live..."

King Yi's mansion hurriedly entered the mansion, the little servant who hurried in called out "Master", and after saluting, he leaned over to whisper a few words into his master's ear.

"What?" When Liang Baojun heard the news brought back by the slave, he couldn't believe it was true.

His Majesty appointed the eldest prince as the crown prince, and their princes were named the Great General of Zhenbei. From now on, they will lead troops to the northwest to drive Zinu out, and they will not be able to return to Fengdu. What does this have to do with expelling Feng in disguise? different?

"Master, this matter is absolutely true, the imperial decree has been issued." The little servant said.

Their lords are going to guard the border in the northwest, wouldn't all the people in this mansion have to go with them?

The imperial decree said that from now on King Yi would lead his troops to the Northland, so that meant that he was about to leave today.

How can it be so urgent, there is not even a little time for him to prepare, Liang Xijun's heart suddenly panicked, he never thought that this matter would come so suddenly.Since the imperial decree has come down, it must be true.

He thought that one day his husband would become the emperor and his mother would honor the world, but he never thought that their prince would go to the west to guard the gate of the town, and he would take his children there with him.I heard that there is wind and sand outside the town gate, and even a bite of food has to be held and squeezed. Life is very hard, how can this be good?

But what now?

The young child still didn't understand anything, looked up at his mother, babbling and talking, seeing that Ah Mu didn't respond to him, he stretched out his little hand to pat him.Liang Baojun came back to his senses, stretched out his hand to touch his baby, the corners of his mouth were squeezed, he couldn't force a smile, so he could only coax, "Be good, don't make trouble."

"Hey..." The child can't be coaxed to be good with just a few words. When he saw Eminem perfunctory him, he immediately became unhappy and started to make a fuss.

The person who usually held the child in his hands was in a bad mood when he saw the child making a fuss today, but now when the child made a fuss, Liang Xijun said something fierce to the child, and the pampered child immediately burst into tears.

"Princess, the little master may be hungry. This slave should take the little master down to feed the goat milk." The servant who was serving saw that the princess was unhappy and the little master was still crying, so he hurriedly said to take the little master down.

"Well, let's go."

After getting the reply, the little servant went down with the little master in his arms.

The aggrieved child held his mouth shut, with tears in his eyes, and looked helplessly at Eminem who was getting further and further away.

The person sitting there propped his head on one hand and didn't know what he was thinking.

"When the lord is back, invite the lord to come here." Liang Xijun ordered.

"Yes" "Have someone send a letter to the prime minister's residence."

"The slave is going here."
