Chapter 307 Stabilizing the Throne
Just no ifs.

Xu Xiao wanted to pass the position of King of Northern Liang to Xu Fengnian, so those assumptions no longer existed.

Chen Zhibao is a man of few words.

This white-robed soldier sage rarely expresses his feelings in front of others because he doesn't talk much.

Even Ye Xizhen and Yao Jian, who were very close to him, didn't know what he was thinking.

Do you want to be the King of Northern Liang?

Are you willing to let Xu Fengnian be the King of Northern Liang?

Neither Ye Xizhen nor Yao Jian knew what Chen Zhibao thought about these issues.

It was precisely because he didn't know that Ye Xizhen asked so bluntly.

Chen Zhibao didn't seem to want to answer Ye Xizhen's question, so he pretended not to hear and continued drinking tea there.

Seeing this, Yao Jian couldn't help it anymore.

This young man who thought he could calculate destiny said: "Chen Zhibao, you are the most suitable person to take over the position of adoptive father. You must fight for it!"

"I don't believe you are really willing not to be the King of Northern Liang."

"In the eyes of many people, you are more suitable for the position of King of Northern Liang than Xu Fengnian!"

"Now, while the big picture is still up in the air, you have to take action."

Ye Xizhen echoed: "I agree with what Yao Jian said, Zhibao, you have to take action!"

Perhaps because of the noise caused by Ye Xizhen and Yao Jian, Chen Zhibao, who had been silent, finally said: "Everything must be obeyed by the foster father's arrangements."

"Your thoughts and mine must come after my adoptive father's thoughts."

"Since the adoptive father has decided to pass the position of King of Northern Liang to Xu Fengnian, we must all support this matter."

Chen Zhibao said these words in a calm tone, but it was full of unquestionable meaning.

Both Ye Xizhen and Yao Jian could tell that Chen Zhibao didn't mean anything openly, but really thought so.

Obviously, Xu Xiao occupies the most important position in Chen Zhibao's heart.

Old Man Tu’s wishes will be obeyed by Little Man Tu.

Little Rentu will still support whatever Old Man Tu decides. Even if this matter is the replacement of the throne of Beiliang, it will still not change.

After hearing Chen Zhibao's words, Ye Xizhen and Yao Jian's hearts froze.

Do you, Chen Zhibao, really have no idea about the position of King Beiliang, or do you dare not reveal your true thoughts?

Ye Xizhen and Yao Jian very much hope that the answer is the latter.

But based on their understanding of Chen Zhibao, they did not think that Chen Zhibao would be such a timid person.

Thinking about it, it can only be that Chen Zhibao has no idea about the position of the Northern Liang King.

Perhaps it should be said that Chen Zhibao obeyed Xu Xiao's intention, but his own original intention was not important.

No matter what, neither Ye Xizhen nor Yao Jian wanted such a result.

Ye Xizhen said unwillingly: "Chen Zhibao, I understand your intention to obey your adoptive father."

"But I hope you can think more about the overall situation."

"You are a destined person, destined to become a person who will go down in history."

"If you don't seize some opportunities, you may lose everything."

"I hope you'll think about it again!"

Yao Jian also said seriously: "Zhibao, what Xizhen said makes sense. You really need to think about it carefully."

Chen Zhibao had no intention of changing his mind.

As if giving a warning, he stared at Ye Xizhen and Yao Jian with cold eyes.

"I've made up my mind, so stop talking nonsense!"

Chen Zhibao said sternly: "If you dare to talk nonsense again, don't blame me for turning your back on others!" After hearing Chen Zhibao's words, Ye Xizhen became angry and yelled: "Chen Zhibao, you can't hold up the wall with mud. I, Ye Xizhen, have really misjudged you. Got it!"

Although Yao Jian didn't say anything, he sighed deeply.

Ye Xizhen and Yao Jian both supported Chen Zhibao wholeheartedly.

The two of them couldn't see hope now, and they were both a little angry.

Chen Zhibao knew that Ye Xizhen and Yao Jian were sincere to him.

Seeing that both of them looked very angry at this moment, he said again: "I already have other plans."

Ye Xizhen and Yao Jian didn't talk to each other, but they both looked at Chen Zhibao, waiting for Chen Zhibao's next words.

Chen Zhibao didn't show off, and then said: "When the time is right, I will join the court as an official."

"When the time comes, will you join the court as an official?"

Ye Xizhen and Yao Jian both widened their eyes in surprise.

"What's your situation?"

Ye Xizhen and Yao Jian were both a little confused.

They had no idea that Chen Zhibao would have such an idea.

In their understanding, Chen Zhibao has always been very hostile to the imperial court.

Although Chen Zhibao hid it well and did not know it from outsiders, they both knew it well.

"Chen Zhibao, why do you have the idea of ​​joining the court as an official?"

"This is really incredible!"

Chen Zhibao's face did not change and he said very calmly: "The emperor intends for me to be the Minister of War. I think I can give it a try. It is just a challenge to see if I can do it well."

Neither Ye Xizhen nor Yao Jian knew what to say.

Chen Zhibao then said: "Being the Minister of the Ministry of War, you can take charge of the army of a country. It is considered to be on a bigger stage."

"Think about it for a moment. Would it be better to be the Minister of War than to be the King of Northern Liang?"

Ye Xizhen and Yao Jian obviously didn't think so, and both shook their heads.

Chen Zhibao said: "If you don't understand it now, I won't explain it much. You will understand it by then."

After hearing what Chen Zhibao said, Ye Xizhen and Yao Jian knew that it was not easy for Chen Zhibao to enter the court as an official.

Is this a move to remove the firepower from under the cauldron, penetrate into the enemy's interior, and begin to disintegrate it from within?
Chen Zhibao did not want to compete for the position of King of Northern Liang, which was a huge blow to Ye Xizhen and Yao Jian. Knowing that Chen Zhibao was going to join the court as an official gave them some comfort.

It seems like this is the only way things can go!

Ye Xizhen and Yao Jian were both powerless and had no choice but to let Chen Zhibao do what he wanted. They could only hope for a good result in the future.

……

The person who is most concerned about the replacement of the Northern Liang throne is undoubtedly Li Yang.

When they learned that Xu Xiao was about to pass the throne to Xu Fengnian, the government and the public were not only shocked, but also felt that Xu Xiao's behavior was not etiquette.

In any case, the position of the Northern Liang King needs to be determined by the court.

Even if the Xu family obtained the hereditary succession from the King of Northern Liang, Xu Fengnian's taking over the throne of Northern Liang would still have to be approved by the emperor.

Some criticism arose among the government and the public.

In the imperial palace, in the royal study.

Zhao Chun and Yuan Benxi sat opposite each other, talking about political affairs as usual.

Zhao Chun sighed slightly: "I really didn't expect that Xu Xiao actually planned to pass the throne to Xu Fengnian so soon."

Yuan Benxi said: "Xu Xiao probably knew that he didn't have many days left, so he passed the throne to Xu Fengnian so early. He wanted to help Xu Fengnian take over Beiliang smoothly and stabilize the throne while he could still support him."

Zhao Chun said: "If this is the case, then we cannot follow Xu Xiao's wishes."
