Marrying blindly and by mistake, the general’s misplaced wife

If in the court, his father had already chosen him, then everyone would be happy, and their planning would be in vain.

The eldest prince's heart was burning.

He was so proud that now in the court, he had long been on the same level as the prince. Now that the prince is gone, who else can he leave behind?
However, Emperor Qi Sheng's eyes passed over him. The second prince had been in the military camp for a long time and was not in the court at this time. The fourth prince Shang Yuanwei, the emperor's eyes stayed for a moment longer and then moved away. The fifth prince Shang Jingyu was still there. Not here.

Emperor Qi Sheng frowned, and then he frowned on the face of the sixth prince Shang Wenhao, passed by the seventh prince Shang Ziduan, and then returned to the fourth prince Shang Yuanwei. He spoke slowly: "King Song, you prince, the emperor My brother is missing. You will temporarily supervise the country. When the prince comes back, he will return to normal!"

Many people in the court were shocked.

Shang Yuanwei's eyes were filled with joy that could hardly be concealed.

He came out of the queue and said in a loud voice: "My son, I obey!"

Although the emperor said that he was only supervising the country on behalf of the prince, everything would be business as usual when the prince came back. But after sending so many people to look for the prince, there was no news. Can the prince come back?

Obviously not.

The emperor's words have established that Shang Yuanwei is the next prince.

Although he did not establish a prince, he still acted like a prince.

Once the emperor became popular, Shang Yuanwei could directly ascend the throne.

Why doesn't this make Shang Yuanwei happy?
He has been working hard, but with the prince before him and the eldest prince behind him, his efforts have become a small matter. But his eagerness to move has never stopped, and some courtiers are optimistic about him, not to mention his mother's family.

At this moment, everyone in this group could not hide their joy.

But the eldest prince's faction was in a slump.

The eldest prince Shang Jianye's expression could not be concealed even if he tried his best to restrain himself.

After retiring from the court, Shang Yuanwei followed the emperor. Since he was to supervise the country and participate in political affairs, it was natural that the emperor would take care of him himself.

Shang Jianye looked at his proud back with cold eyes.

I originally thought that after doing so much, everything would fall into place, but unexpectedly, I ended up making a wedding dress for others.

My father is really confused. He thinks that the fourth child is a good one?
He thought that his good prince disappeared on the way to the East and the fourth child was innocent?
Ah!
News from the Eastern Region has not been returned for more than ten days, and Qi Sheng Emperor has not been able to go to court in the past few days.

In the court hall, Shang Yuanwei sat under the dragon chair, discussing court affairs with the courtiers.

He was high-spirited and had the attitude of a prince.

Those courtiers who were originally on his side naturally supported him; those who were neutral would not be embarrassed.

The eldest prince's party was unwilling to give up and wanted to find out where he was wrong. But he didn't know whether he had learned smartly or had guidance from an expert, but he didn't have anything to use against others.

Ning Guogong, who asked the emperor to appoint a prince, even stroked his white beard and nodded with satisfaction: "The King of Song is calm and measured, with the demeanor of a prince!"

This is a serious statement. You must know that Ning Guogong is a veteran of the three dynasties and has great prestige in the court. Taifu Ye was once his student and was highly respected. Therefore, when the court was in panic because of the disappearance of the prince, he was the only one who dared to stand up. Please establish a new prince.

With his words, there will be more courtiers supporting Shang Yuanwei.

The eldest prince lowered his head, making his livid face invisible.

He secretly cursed the old immortal in his heart. After the court was over, he was still gnashing his teeth with hatred.

In his Prince Qi's Mansion, he even dropped a lot of things.

The servants were as silent as cicadas.

At this moment, the staff rushed over in a hurry, not caring that he was angry, and said anxiously: "Your Highness, it's not good!"

Shang Jianye's eyes were blood red, was it bad? When could it be worse than now?
The staff member said anxiously: "The King of Song's people have traced the disappearance of the batch of military rations shipped to the east together with the prince, Lord Xiahou!"

Shang Jianye calmed down quickly. He was indeed responsible for that matter. His uncle Xia Haicheng was the minister of the Ministry of Finance. He was not directly in charge, but he could get involved in the affairs of the Ministry of Finance. But he was not the only one who took action at that time, Shang Yuanwei's people also had a hand in it.

Now, Shang Yuanwei wants to investigate, and his intention is obvious.

The first is to use this incident to establish his authority; the second is to pour all the dirty water on his head, even if he cannot be pulled off his horse, his arm will be broken.

Therefore, even if there is no evidence, Shang Yuanwei will make this matter an ironclad case.

"Okay, okay, what a Shang Yuanwei!"

Shang Jianye gritted his teeth: "Call Mr. Zhou, Mr. Yuan, and Mr. Li to go to the study together!"

It was time to discuss countermeasures, so the staff went immediately.

This time, Shang Yuanwei became more and more proud.

The eldest prince's faction was so suppressed by him that they could not hold their heads up.

The legitimate future prince's status is really good, but his father is in poor health and he has been asked to approve the memorial on his behalf.

Looking at the few sparse battle reports from the Eastern Territory, he snorted. Half a year has passed, Taifu Ye, and there has been no good news from the Eastern Territory.

Isn't it just that there is a shortage of food and grass?
As a prince of a country, he can't fight without enough food and grass?

I don’t know how the reputation came about earlier.

waste!

However, thanks to this waste leaving the capital, the eldest prince was able to act unscrupulously and let him take advantage.

He never dreamed that his wise father would appoint him as the acting prince.

What he wants to do now is to beat the eldest prince and his gang to death.

Princelings?
The prince is gone, so it doesn't matter. Don’t be afraid that they won’t be used by you!
In the next court meeting, Shang Yuanwei suppressed the eldest prince's party even more unscrupulously. Regarding the second batch of grain and fodder, Xia Haicheng introduced a scapegoat. He was fine, but he could feel more than one pair of eyes watching behind him. .

On this day, Qi Sheng Emperor was in better spirits. He arrived at the court and decided on May 18th to be the grand ceremony for the Jin Dynasty to confer the title of Prince Shang Yuanwei!

At this point, those who were preparing to make a move in the dark knew that in the heart of Qi Sheng Emperor, this was already a foregone conclusion.

The prince is certain that any action they take will be unfair and unjust.

In addition, looking at the emperor like this, I don't know if he can live until May 18th. Maybe that day is not only the ceremony of the crown prince's promotion, but also the day when the new emperor ascends the throne.

On the other hand, the eldest prince seemed to have given up the struggle. No one from this group of courtiers raised any objections, and other courtiers had no intention of going against the emperor's wishes.

The Ministry of Rites began to prepare for the Jin Dynasty.

The time was set in a hurry, so the Ministry of Rites could only work overtime to prepare, trying not to make any mistakes.

When the prince is granted the title of Jin, he must first go to the Ancestral Temple to pay homage to his ancestors.

The emperor's body was in poor health, so officials from the Ministry of Rites accompanied the prince-to-be on his trip to the Ancestral Temple.

A thousand Praetorian Guards accompanied him.

Shang Yuanwei sat in the chariot and marched along, accepting the viewing ceremony of the people along the way.

The young man wears the uniform of a prince, with the majesty of the imperial guards and the style of ceremonial guard. When he comes back, he will change into the uniform of a prince. The Shang Palace Bureau has already made a new prince's robe according to his size.

Just as they turned the corner, they could already see the direction of the Imperial Ancestral Temple. Suddenly, a cold light shone from the crowd. (End of chapter)
