The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 2356
What is a national warrior?

For the country and the people, the achievements are unparalleled.

Even though it was Zhang Shijie who was evaluated by Zhao Dongting in this way, it still surprised countless people.Of course, envy more.

To get this evaluation, it is enough to die in the past.

Zhang Shijie's funeral wasn't very grand, when his eldest son Zhang Guwang hurried back from Guangnan East Road, the funeral took place within two days.

On that day, Zhao Dongting saw Zhang Shijie off in person.

Yiguanzhong was first buried in Yuelu, Changsha.

His ashes were kept at home first, and later moved to the capital, and then buried in Dongshan.

Many veterans and officials in the court accompanied him to see him off, and there were countless civilians.The cry was loud.

Two days later, Zhao Dongting held a grand court meeting.

Officials of the third rank and above in Changsha City, including former officials who have retired, filed in through the side gate of the palace at dawn.

Then the eunuch who held the lamp led to the palace hall.

When they entered, Zhao Dongting was already sitting on the throne, and Zhao An was standing beside him in princely attire.

When the ministers saw this scene, they were even more aware of it.

It seems that the emperor held this court meeting to confirm the position of the second prince and heir.

"Long live the emperor, long live!"

All the ministers shouted and saluted.

"Everyone who loves you is free of courtesy."

Zhao Dongting waved his hand, waited for the ranks and qualifications of the ministers to be settled, and went straight to the point, "Today, I announce that all my lovers are here, and there is only one thing I want to announce to you all."

"When I first came to the throne, I was still only nine years old. My country was in turmoil, my life was in decline, and I was lucky enough to be merciful. With the help of all my lovers, I tried my best to save the country from the turbulent tide. It took 21 years to drive away the yuan and wipe out the rule, and ruled the country. Soldiers, government, and people helped the Song Dynasty to prosper again. In this world, the most ruthless thing is time. In a blink of an eye, I have stayed on the throne for more than 23 years."

"My princes have gradually grown up. I know that you are all looking forward to it, looking forward to my announcement of the candidate for the crown prince."

"The heir to the throne, the first thing is to be honest, the country is the first, and the people are the most important. The second is sex, and you need to be open-minded and tolerant."

"Among my several princes, the second prince, Zhao An, has a free and easy nature since he was a child, but he has the air of a king. I intend to appoint him as the heir. Do you have any objections?"

He didn't say too much, because if he said too much, it would appear that Zhao An was not qualified.

In fact, Zhao An is indeed the most suitable candidate in Zhao Dongting's mind.

Although his personality is a bit out of the ordinary, but the older he gets, the more tempered he will naturally calm down.

As for ability, although this kid's talent in martial arts is far inferior to Zhao Ru's, he is born smart and can learn everything quickly.

As long as he is kept in the imperial study, Zhao Dongting is sure to train him into a qualified monarch within five years.

All the ministers were already prepared in their hearts, and at this time, no one expressed any objection.

They've been talking about it privately for some time now.

It is not a secret that Zhao Dongting announced that Lu Xiufu, Wang Wenfu and others entered the imperial study. The attitude of Lu Xiufu and others is well known to these people standing in the hall.

And they can be regarded as the teachers of these court officials.After so many years, it is no exaggeration for Lu Xiufu and others to say that peaches and plums are all over the world.

Although they did not pull the hills, these officials will naturally refer to their opinions.

A few seconds passed, Lu Xiufu took the lead and bowed to salute, "Your Majesty is wise!"

"Emperor Shengming!"

All the members, including Zhong Jian, bowed their heads.

This matter is so settled.

Zhao Dongting nodded, and continued: "Okay, then from now on, An'er will be the crown prince of the Great Song Dynasty and the prince of the East Palace. I will give the prince a court uniform and a guard of honor."

Immediately afterwards, he said: "In addition, the crown prince, as a supervisor of the country, is like the central cabinet, and discusses political affairs with all the love ministers of the central cabinet. Learning is the main thing, and we must not make arbitrary decisions."

"Yes."

Zhao An quickly agreed beside him.

The ministers were a little confused.

Let Zhao An enter the central cabinet to discuss politics?

This is something they didn't dare to think about before, after all, Zhao An is not yet 15 years old.

Fortunately, Zhao Dongting still has the following sentence, which is only about learning, so it won't have much impact on the central cabinet.

"Congratulations to the emperor! Congratulations to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

All the ministers shouted again.

Zhao Dongting looked at Eunuch Liu next to him.

Eunuch Liu raised his voice and shouted, "Let's play if there is something to do, and leave the court if there is nothing to do."

Zhao Dongting is a real person. What should be announced has already been announced, so there is no need to waste time here.

The ministers retreated one after another.

Later, Zhao Dongting also went to the imperial study.

Zhao An followed him and asked, "Father, didn't you let me follow you in the Imperial Study?"

Zhao Dongting never told him about letting him go to the central cabinet.

Zhao Dongting said: "In the imperial study room, most of the policy and strategy for a country's development are formulated. In the central cabinet, you can learn how to deal with government affairs, so let you go to the central cabinet for a while. Just remember, I Although I gave you the status of supervising the country, it is not for you to show off the majesty of the prince. No matter who is in the central cabinet, you can be your teacher. When you go there, you will learn from me obediently, listen more and talk less. If you If you hear someone gossiping about you, you see that I won't cut you when the time comes."

Zhao An shrank his neck and said with a chuckle: "Father, don't worry, I will definitely not embarrass you."
