Sir, you have to pay more

Chapter 416 Who Can Be the New Emperor?

In Beijing in winter, the sun rises relatively late.

At around the same time, Yu Minzhong, the Chief Minister of Military Aircraft, personally took the emperor's abdication edict, accompanied by Suolin Tong Qinggui, the Minister of Military Aircraft who was "forced to operate", came down to Tongwumen, and immediately read it out in public.

The burst of cheers from the clan disciples at the outer gate of the city overwhelmed Jia Liu, who was leading his subordinates to retreat to Chongwenmen not far away, stopped his horse and stood still, looking in the direction of the Meridian Gate, and remained silent.

After this night of chaos and bloodbath, theoretically, Ruxiu's right to inherit the throne should be increased by at least [-], right?
"The children of the Manchu clan are quite passionate, but they don't know that everything tonight is under the control of the adults."

When Fan Wei came to the ghost family, he did not hide his admiration for the ghost family.

Restoring Qianlong is simply a hand of God!

Jia Liu couldn't hear the compliment, so he twitched his nose, took out the embroidered handkerchief his wife gave him, wiped it, then stuffed it back into his sleeve, and said casually: "The Qing Dynasty does not allow people with more blood than me."

"Uh?"

Fan Wei listened attentively, "What does your lord mean?"

Jia Liu didn't answer, but just summoned a few messengers and told them: "Tell the horse and infantry soldiers of the green battalion in the capital that the emperor is being held hostage by rebels, and the saber will not be sealed today!"

"Whoo!"

Several messengers immediately galloped away, and passed the military order not to seal the sword today to the Green Battalion soldiers of the capital who were ordered to loot Prince Zhuang, Prince Xian, Prince Jian, Pingjun, and Shuncheng.

He looked at Fan Wei again, "You go to the Zhenglan Banner Dutong Yamen of the Han Army in person, and tell my father and Zu Jianchang that the meeting of kings and ministers discussing politics is an illegal organization, and the edict of the emperor's abdication is also a fake edict, no matter who finds them Don't even bother."

Fan Wei was very clever, and immediately guessed what Master Guijia meant: "Let the whole city continue to be in chaos?"

"If the chaos continues, how can the people in the clan think of me, Jia Jia Shikai, and how can they know that I am the one and only person in Beijing!"

The more Jia Liu thought about it, the more angry he became, and he couldn't help but pooh, "I don't care who is the emperor, as long as you take the initiative to talk to me and give me 50 million taels to let me live, I may not be able to help them, but they cross the river and tear down the bridge. If you don't let me participate, you really deserve to be killed!"

What is the greatest prestige of being a cadre?
Just being able to have a meeting!
After busy work, the victory party didn't even give Jia Liu the qualification for the meeting, so why can't he be angry?

This is the meeting of kings and ministers discussing politics. As long as he can participate, Jia Liu will be a prince of the Qing Dynasty from now on.

Official recognition!

Well now, those clans thought that Jia Liu was a fuel-efficient lamp, and even bypassed Jia Liu and directly announced the victory. If Jia Liu didn't show them some strength, it would really be a waste of his reputation as the No.1 general of the Qing Dynasty.

But now is not the time to have a fight with the clan.

After all, the guards of the Three Banners obeyed the clan at this time.

Therefore, Jia Liu had to shake people, and the more people he shook, the better.

Where are the people from?

The Rehe soldiers who came with Zhongtang, and the soldiers from Suiyuan and Shandong.

Qianlong abdicated and was imprisoned in the Hall of Mental Cultivation. After the edict of abdication was promulgated, Zhenghuang and Zhengbai two banner guards and most of the guards were forced to accept the result. Although there are still many thieves in the palace making trouble, as the sky is getting brighter, Those gang of thieves will be the turtles in the urn, nothing to worry about.

Now there are three things in front of the clan princes.

One is to quickly quell the chaos outside the palace;

The second is to convene a meeting of ministers to discuss politics and decide on the candidate for the new monarch.

The third is to send people to take the edict of Qianlong's abdication and the edict of the new emperor to recruit and surrender the three-way soldiers from Rehe, Suiyuan, and Shandong.

The imperial minister Santai was very cooperative after the general situation passed, and he happily confessed that Qianlong had secretly summoned three groups of soldiers and horses to Beijing.

The first thing is easy to handle. Minister of the Ministry of War Yiltu Heping County Wang Qingheng has gone out of the palace to appease people.

The third thing is also easy to handle. Although Zha Lantai, the capital of Rehe, is the son-in-law of Qianlong, his subordinate Rehe Eight Banners soldiers are not the son-in-law of the emperor. As long as the situation in the capital is stable and there is a new imperial edict, Zha Lantai can be appeased a little bit. It absolutely dare not breed trouble.

Although Suiyuan's deputy governor, Azhong Baotong, and the senior scholar Shu Hede were Qianlong's confidantes, but faced with the reality that the throne had changed hands, the two of them would never dare to send troops into the capital.

Shuhede's family members are still in the city, and if necessary, they can be used as hostages to force Shuhede not to act rashly.

As for He Shen who escaped from the palace, there is nothing to worry about, he is just a lucky minister.

The second thing is very difficult.

Regarding the candidate for the new monarch, the princes and ministers began to argue fiercely after receiving the imperial edict of Qianlong's abdication.

There are three main candidates.

The first is that Fu Lehun, minister of the Ministry of Rites, and Yu Minzhong, minister of military affairs, proposed that the queen of Lijun should choose one person to inherit the throne;
The king of Lijun is Hongxi, the eldest grandson of the holy ancestor, and his blood is extremely noble.

Hong Xi had more than ten sons, five of them are alive now, the third son Yong Mei is the oldest, 45 years old this year.

The second is that Prince Zhuang Yongzhen and Prince Jian Feng Naheng proposed to choose one of the living grandsons of the former Emperor Sejong to inherit;
Because the late emperor ordered Hongzhou, the fifth son of the emperor, to succeed to the throne, it is reasonable to select a sage from Hongzhou's descendants to succeed to the throne, so as to completely rectify the source.

The third is that Prince Kang Yongen, Pingjun Wang Qingheng and others proposed to choose one successor from the descendants of the eight sons of the holy grandfather, Prince Lian. Supporting this proposal was Sun Wufu, the deputy capital of the Han army with a red flag who took the initiative to invade the palace.

In the past, Prince Fupeng of Ping County was suppressed by Qianlong because he was close to Prince Lian's eldest son Hongwang. Now that Qianlong has abdicated, Qingheng will definitely support Prince Lian's succession.

In addition to these three voices, there are also other voices, but the proposers are mostly ignored due to their status, including the proposal of "returning" the big position to the Dorgon lineage who made great contributions to the founding of the Qing Dynasty by Quini, the Minister of Rites.

Only 19 years old, Xinjun Wang Chunying has no claim on who should be the emperor. At this time, he is still a little shocked, sitting next to the princes and only looking down at his feet, and has no intention of participating in such important national affairs.

However, Chun Ying is not only the hat king, but also the owner of the Zhenglan Banner Manchurian Banner. If he supports one side in this situation, the weight of that side will increase immediately. Therefore, in the disputes among the people, this young prince who does not care about world affairs does not know Unconsciously, he has become an important figure that all parties are vying to win over.

"Who does King Xin think can be the new king?"

Fu Lehun is still very confident in persuading King Xin to support the candidate he proposed with Yu Zhongtang, because he is a good brother of Liu Zi, and Liu Zi is Chunying's brother-in-law.

Help me, help me.

"I,"

Chunying wanted to say that she had no intention of participating in this matter at all, no matter who is the emperor, but she also knew that her status was not suitable to say such words, so she squeaked there.

Prince Zhuang Yongzhen knew that Fu Lehun wanted to draw Chunying's support, so he stood up angrily and raised his voice to the crowd: "I don't know what's up for grabs. Could it be that the late emperor's edict will not be obeyed by everyone? If not, The late emperor's edict, why should I wait for the teacher to come out?"

These words made everyone silent, but the late emperor's edict belongs to the edict, and who is willing to give up his position when it comes to the ownership of the throne.

"If you want me to say, the candidate for the new emperor should be decided by the meeting of the king and ministers."

Prince Kang Yongen made a compromise. Anyway, Qianlong has abdicated, and the palace will be stable immediately. Since everyone can't fight for anything, it's better to decide at the meeting.

There are no less than a hundred people in Beijing who are eligible to participate in the meeting of kings and ministers, and there are three hat kings in the family of Prince Tali.

The small calculation was clever, and he didn't want the Military Aircraft Department to draw up a list of civil and military officials who were eligible to attend the meeting of ministers of state and affairs. Wang Qingheng of Pingjun, who went out of the palace to appease the clan with the minister of the Ministry of War, Yiletu, rushed into the hall in a panic. Prince Zhuang Yong En, who was speaking, said anxiously: "Stop arguing, something happened to the palace!"

　The clan is not the palace, and the palace is not the same as the clan, accounting for about one percent of the clan.

　　The relationship between the two is written in the book, and some readers scold water science.

　　If you don't write, you can't understand it, and you think you are right and scold the author for writing blindly. . .

　　You are more ghostly than Guizi Liu.
