After stealing the divorce book, Princess Salted Fish fell off her horse

It was actually persuading the crown prince!

The emperor is already in his fifties. With so many adult and minor princes, it is time to establish a prince. It is not that no one has mentioned it before.

The prince is the cornerstone of the country, the foundation of the country, if one day the emperor takes the dragon to control the funeral, and there is no prince, there will be chaos.

If it doesn't work out, Dong Xia will be torn apart.

But the emperor was very repulsed by this matter.

Everyone who proposed this matter was either reprimanded or demoted, and no one was able to please.

After a long time, they figured out what the emperor meant, which was that they didn't want to establish a prince.Or it could be said that the emperor's will may be hesitating on the eldest prince and the fourth prince.

This will have to wait until the emperor himself figured it out.They don't hit the south wall.

At this moment, what Xi Zhiyan said reminded them that this is indeed the best time to persuade the crown prince to be established.

The eldest prince's party was very anxious.

Although it is the best time to persuade the prince to be established, it is more beneficial to the fourth prince.The defender of the east border belongs to the fourth prince, and the fourth prince suppressed the eldest prince too much this time.

Originally, they only needed to wait for a while, and they would be able to turn things around, but at this time, Chen Bing of the Southern Qi Dynasty disrupted their plans.

If the emperor establishes a prince now, the eldest prince has no advantage.

But now that this topic has been brought up, and Xi Zhiyan also mentioned that the fourth prince's son should be the town's east palace, there must be a fight.

Qin Muzhao immediately said: "A crown prince should be a virtuous person, and the eldest prince is the eldest son of the emperor. He has always been known as a virtuous king, loves the people like a son, is modest and delong, and is elegant and noble. He should be in the East Palace!"

Wei Ceqing said coldly: "How can a concubine be established when there is a concubine? The concubine is the orthodox, and the concubine is a side branch. The ordinary family is still distinct, let alone the royal family? Such a simple truth, the Marquis of Qin will not be unaware of it?"

Qin Muzhao said: "Eastern Xia's kingdom is endless, and the crown prince is established, the most important thing! The crown prince is the foundation of the country, and he should establish a long and worthy person! The eldest son of the emperor is more famous than the four princes. Why can't he control the East Palace?"

People from the two factions came out one after another, arguing hard.

One school upholds the orthodoxy of the son-in-law, and the patriarchal system handed down by the ancestors has a saying. There is a saying that the heir is established, and the son-in-law is on the sidelines.

One faction upholds virtuous prescriptions as the foundation of the country, and mastering virtuous ministers is the fundamental consideration for the country's prosperity for thousands of years. Regardless of whether the descendants or concubines are the sons of the emperor, they are all the emperor's blood.

They quoted the scriptures, discussed the present with the past, and cited many examples in history where the concubine and concubine were not separated and the country was in chaos.

For a while, the two sides disagreed, like a large debate.

The emperor sat high on the dragon chair, his cloudy eyes swept across the hall, and there was a gleam of coldness in the depths of his eyes.

They said it was really the eldest prince and the fourth prince, and in their eyes, these two princes were really the only ones who could be the heirs!snort!
Look at the two factions who are really red-faced, frothy, blowing their sleeves and almost fighting, and there is also a neutral faction who is as quiet as a chicken, lowers its head and eyes, nose, nose and heart and does not participate in the dispute.The emperor felt that compared to the last time this topic was debated, the number of neutrals was less.

Is it true that after a while there will be no more neutral factions, and they will all become the party of the great princes and the party of the four princes?As the emperor, he should be moved for them, right?

It's great that everyone is so eager to stand in line!
He withdrew his gloomy gaze, glanced at the quiet father and son of the Ming family and Kong Xi who was watching the play with great interest, his face turned black, and he coughed heavily.

The sound was like a stone being plunged into the water, and everyone stopped talking instantly. The court hall, which was as lively as a vegetable market just now, immediately returned to its previous majesty and solemnity.

The emperor said indifferently: "Mingqing, what do you want to say?"

Ming Chongjun came out, he was the prime minister, so it was normal for the emperor to ask his opinion.

It's just that as soon as he walked out, the faces of the first prince and the fourth prince were a little strange, with expectations and precautions at the same time.

Ming Chongjun glanced at the eldest prince, who was overjoyed and couldn't help but take a step forward.But he looked away again and glanced at the fourth prince.

Thinking that Ming Chongjun helped them speak just now, the Fourth Prince was overjoyed.

However, Ming Chongjun had already looked at the emperor, made a salute, and said: "How to establish the crown prince and who to appoint as the crown prince is a matter of the emperor's Sacred Heart dictatorship, and the emperor does not need to ask other people's opinions!"

The Great Princely Party: "..."

The Four Princes Party: "..."

Although those neutrals all said this way, today they felt that Ming Chongjun was scheming, unfathomable, slippery like a loach, and watertight.

They were of course dissatisfied with Ming Chongjun's answer. At this time, as the prime minister, as long as he said a word, the emperor would listen to it.

However, they felt relieved again.

At least, although I didn't help myself, I didn't help the other party either.

They couldn't tell who Ming Chongjun belonged to now.

It's nothing more than the annoyance of the eldest prince's party and the secret joy of the four princes' party.

What is annoyed is that this is originally a person in their camp, but because the eldest prince hated his daughter for retiring the engagement, he calculated several times, which chilled Ming Chongjun's heart, and his own people were divorced. If he wanted to warm this heart, he would just It takes a lot of effort.

Originally they were quite happy to see the eldest prince ignoring Ming Chongjun.

Behind every Conglongzhigong, there will be rewards based on seniority and work.With such a status as Prime Minister Ming, he must be one of the best around the First Prince, and they will only have a chance to climb up after getting Ming Chongjun down.

Now that it's gone, they realize that what they thought was too simple.Think about the credit first if you don't get something done, but in the end, you don't know if it will be possible.What's the credit if it can't be done?

I am secretly happy because I feel that I have the opportunity to win over this important figure in the court.

The emperor said again: "Kong Qing, what do you think?"

Kong Xi looked bewildered: "Huh?" He scratched his head and said, "The emperor's dragon sons are all excellent, but I, Lao Kong, am just a rough man. I am good at fighting, and I can be as good as one on the battlefield." Thousands, if one is worth a hundred, it is not running away, but if the emperor asks me about this kind of thing, he is asking Yu Blind!"

The emperor laughed and scolded: "You are slippery!"

Kong Xi pointed out Chongjun: "The old fox of the Ming Dynasty is the cunning one, ah, no, the old fox of the Ming Dynasty is quite right. Who should be established as the crown prince is for public and private purposes, for affection and reason, for the family and the country, and for the inside and outside. It's up to you, Your Majesty, to be less important than more important. You are wise and far-sighted, and you must have planned in your heart, I will not show my shame, old Kong!"

Ming Chongjun rolled his big eyes at Kong Xi.

Those who didn't pay attention were fine, those who saw it couldn't help but almost rolled their eyes.

The prime minister of the Ming Dynasty has always been an old god, calm and calm, standing in a deep pavilion, and the eight winds are not moving, so he would make such a strange and special action that would be demeaning of his identity?
But they thought about it again, General Kong Da called him an old fox in front of the emperor, his expression was also reasonable.

The emperor was very comfortable being slapped by Kong Xi's rainbow fart. It's not that Kong Xi's words are so nice. He doesn't know how many times he has heard this kind of rainbow fart. , Whoever he wants to establish is his business!

Isn't it his business?

The emperor coughed lightly, and said lightly: "According to the practice of this court, the prince can enter the court to listen to the government after the fourteenth year. The old nine, ten, eleven, and twelve are old enough. Da Zhu, you can tell me later." One word, let the four of them listen to the government in the future!"

All the ministers: "..."

Aren't you talking about Prince Li?How come it is said that the prince who has reached the age of 14 can listen to politics at will?
Isn't there a deep meaning in this?

Eunuch Liu immediately said: "Observe the order!"

The emperor said: "Okay, retreat!"

The eldest prince party breathed a sigh of relief. Now the situation is favorable to the fourth prince, and it is more reasonable for the fourth prince to occupy the heir. The right time, place and people are all on the side of the fourth prince. The emperor did not let the fourth prince be the prince. The eldest prince's is very good, they still have to plan carefully.

The Four Princes were a little disappointed, but there was nothing they could do about it. Every time they talked about setting up a prince, the emperor always reacted like this. He originally thought that now that the Southern Qi army was overwhelmed, and General Zhenyuan raised the stakes, the emperor would let go, but the result was still the same. Could it be? Does the emperor intend to let these two princes see the truth?Or is it because they know that they are evenly matched and don't want to cause turmoil, so they have been dragging on?

It seems that he has to think of a way to inflict serious damage on the fourth prince's side, so that the emperor can make up his mind!
Ming Chongjun glanced at the direction the emperor was leaving, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Kong Xi approached quietly: "Ming old fox, do you have any thoughts? When you squint your eyes, you look more like a fox!"

Ming Chongjun said: "Hmph!" and walked away with a flick of his sleeves.

But Kong Xi chased him with a smile, and said with big strides: "Ming old fox, don't go, what are you doing so fast? We have been officials in the same dynasty for so long, and you have never treated me to a drink .I think choosing a day is worse than bumping into it, how about today?"

Ming Chongjun glanced at him: "Why did the truth invite you to drink?"

Kong Xi said straightforwardly: "Because I'm poor! Everyone knows that I'm poor, and many people have invited me to drink. As the prime minister, you can't give up everything, right? I'm really determined to drink today's drink! "

Ming Chongjun said: "Get lost!"

Kong Xi said in a loud voice: "Listen, everyone, as the prime minister of the first dynasty, the Prime Minister of the Ming Dynasty screamed at me, a first-rank general. This is a serious insult and contempt for this general. This general has been deeply hurt. If the prime minister doesn’t treat me to a drink... no, if you don’t treat me to ten drinks, I’ll go to the holy majesty and sue him for insulting the court’s official, and I’ll be defiant. Everyone, please be a witness to this great general!”

All the ministers: "..."

Can they pretend not to hear?
No, this Kong Xi is a great general after all, why is he drinking wine everywhere every day?
Last time it was Tian Yushi, last time it was Supervisor Yan, last time it was Huang Shilang, Lord Qin, Duke Zhuang...

This is not ignorance, but it is shocking. General Kong Da has blackmailed people every now and then in the past two months. What did Yushi say when he blackmailed Tian Yushi?Oh, when Tian Yushi saw him, he turned around and left without paying attention to him; Supervisor Yan rubbed his sleeve sorely when he was walking; Huang Shilang stepped his right foot first when walking in front of him; When Hou Ye turned around, the wind was too strong, which frightened him; Zhuang Guogong asked him politely if he had eaten. He was too poor to eat, and he was stimulated by this sentence. He had to eat a good meal to heal himself. ...

It's still all out of nothing, and the method doesn't change.

Now it's even being blackmailed on Prime Minister Ming's head?
If it were another person, others would suspect that he was trying to use this method to form a clique for personal gain, but General Kong was catching whoever was blackmailed, and everyone who was blackmailed had a look of constipation, thinking he was unlucky, and there was a big prince's party, There are also four princes, and there are centrists.

Even General Kong ran people away in the court a while ago, and blackmailed them for dinner and dinner a while later, without any face.

It is he who wants to form a party, who would form a party with someone like him?

But this Kong Xi was a celebrity in front of the emperor, he was obviously rude, he couldn't speak his head, and he would jump up and beat people when he was angry in the court, but the emperor would not demote him, who would dare to provoke him?

Pairs of eyes sneaked over to see how Ming Chongjun faced this blackmail incident.

To be honest, none of these people in the court lacked three melons and two dates of money for this meal, but they just felt very aggrieved.

He asked people to invite him to dinner with a good voice, who would not invite him?

But he insisted on falsehood, and after he was full of wine and food, he would say: It's not that I want to eat your food, it's you who hurt me, this is compensation, it has nothing to do with human feelings, Lao Kong doesn't recognize human feelings!

Listen, scoundrel!
Ming Chongjun rolled his eyes: "Get lost!"

Everyone: "..."

After all, it is the Prime Minister of Ming Dynasty, look, General Kong Da is afraid that only the Prime Minister of Ming Dynasty can rule him.

He blackmailed others, others were either inferior to him, or were not as shameless as him, or could not stand up to his fierce and aggressive appearance, but the light and fluffy word of Prime Minister Ming was really soul-stirring!
Kong Xi opened his eyes wide, pointed at himself, with a hurt face on his face: "Ming old fox, you told me to leave? You told me to leave? And it was the second time? We have been officials in the same dynasty for many years. You are civil and we are military. They are all working for the emperor, yet you tell me to get lost? Then I have to talk to you..."

He spoke loudly, blah blah, blah blah, spitting, with one hand still pulling Ming Chongjun's sleeve.

Ming Shuo rushed over from behind, bowed his hands and bowed: "General, don't be angry, don't you have a meal? My nephew invites you!"

Kong Xi gave him a disdainful glance: "Boy Mao, what's the point of drinking with you? This general just wants old fox Ming to pay me to buy me. While watching me drink, he feels pain in his heart and resents him for being unable to kill me. That's refreshing! "

Everyone: "..."

It's really shameless to say this, so you just say that you are looking for him to make you unhappy!

Mingshuo: "..."

Very well, no wonder his father and General Kong Da have been at odds for 500 years, and it seems that after another 500 years, they won't be able to get along either.

Ming Chongjun said: "Kong Huzi, do you think the truth is afraid of you? If the truth says no, I won't invite you. You have the ability to carry the truth!"

When Kong Xi heard this, he was eager to try: "Then I really carry it!"

Ming Shuo hurriedly stopped him and said, "Father, forget it, don't you just have a meal? You have been officials in the same dynasty for many years, and I'm afraid you haven't had a meal together. Since the general is interested in it, go! "

He stood in the way of Kong Xi, who was eager to try, and said that it was possible to carry someone else. If it really happened, Kong Xi was used to being shameless, and he didn't feel ashamed. What prestige would his father have?
