The eldest son of the red mansion

Therefore, Shang Jia She's annual income is only the money sent by the public, without any extra money, so life is quite inconvenient. Now all he wants to do is to make more money for the house, so he can be more generous. Thinking of this It angered Jia Mu.

Jia Amnesty was terrified when she saw Jia Mu angry. One must know that he had been very afraid of Jia Mu since he was a child. Seeing her angry now, he did not dare to neglect her. He quickly fell to his knees and begged for forgiveness.

Jia Mu narrowed her eyes and looked at Jia Amnesty before she said, "Everyone in the house knows why the eldest girl entered the palace. Is she doing it for her own glory and wealth? She is doing it for you unworthy old men." , I have to use the body of a woman to add some luck to our Jia family. From now on, if anyone says these words again, it is inevitable that I will be punished."

When Jia Amnesty heard Jiamu's reply, he knew that he was really angry, so he hurriedly replied: "What mother said is that the son was confused just now. I hope that mother will forgive me for the sake of my son's short-sightedness and nonsense. This time."

After hearing Jia Amnesty's constant apology, Mother Jia didn't say anything and waved him back to sit back.Then she turned around and asked Jia Ke, "We are still loyal to the old emperor, and the third prince becomes the new emperor, will it make things difficult for the young lady?"

Jia Ke was not worried about this at all. Even if the new emperor wanted to make things difficult for Jia Yuanchun, he had to consider the consequences. You must know that the soldiers and horses in the capital now have nothing to do with the Jia family. As long as the third prince is not crazy, he would never dare to make things difficult Jia Yuanchun, even in order to win them over, had to have a lot of faith in Jia Yingchun.

When Jia Ke reported her judgment to Mother Jia, she was relieved, and at the same time a little proud, even the emperor would act according to the face of their Jia family.At the same time, some worries arose in my heart. After all, these inheritances have never had a good end since ancient times.

But Jia Mu firmly suppressed this worry in her heart, because she knew that there was still a way to go if the powerful minister wanted to survive, and she was watching Jia Ke's actions with cold eyes, and she was constantly moving towards this road. run wildly.

After the Rongguo Mansion ended the meeting, they secretly informed the relatives and friends of the Jia family's intentions, many of them were the cronies of the Second Duke Rong and Ning when he was there, and some of them were like Wang Ziteng, who were all prosperous and all were damaged. dear.

Among them, Wang Ziteng agreed with the Jia family's attitude very much. Wang Ziteng himself was the old emperor's confidant, so naturally he could not vote under the command of the third prince.Now that the Jia family is on the same side as him, everyone is naturally in the same spirit, and they will be able to take care of each other better in the future.As long as the two families join forces, even the new emperor will be afraid.

The major policies of the Rongguo Mansion for the next few years were decided on this day, and the news quickly spread to the desks of the old emperor and the third prince.

But the two of them were not surprised at all. The old emperor instinctively believed that Jia Ke was loyal to him and would never think otherwise, so he was not surprised by this report.

And the third prince had long been at odds with Jia Ke, and had no idea that Jia Ke would surrender to him at all, so he was not disappointed.

More than ten days later, on February [-]nd, the day when the dragon raised its head, the old emperor finally recuperated and started his first imperial court this year.

This time the grand dynasty was different, and it was not held at the Qianqingmen, but at the Hall of Supreme Harmony.When everyone received the news, their expressions were different. The Hall of Supreme Harmony is not an ordinary place, it is a place where major ceremonial activities are held.Since the old emperor is going to hold a great court there, the news that the old emperor is going to abdicate must be true.

Jia Ke still stood at the front of the team as usual, leading all the officials into the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

After entering the Hall of Supreme Harmony, all the officials stood up according to their ranks.

At this time, the emperor has not come yet, and all the ministers can chat in a low voice.

At this time, Lei Ying, who was standing beside Jia Ke, said to Jia Ke in a low voice: "Master Jia, why are you so persistent, the emperor is old after all, and the third prince is in his youth, I think you should change your course."

Jia Ke squinted at him and said in a low voice, "Like you, the seller seeks glory. I, Jia Ke, can't do it yet."

Speaking of this Lei Ying, he should also belong to the old emperor, but for some reason, he actually voted under the command of the third prince. Now it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a seller seeking glory.

After hearing Jia Ke's words, Lei Ying showed a shameful expression on his face, but in the end it gradually faded away, and he sighed and stopped talking.In fact, in his heart, he thinks that he has not betrayed, and that he is loyal to the entire court, not that one emperor. Now it is the most beneficial for the entire court to have the third prince enthroned. As long as he has a clear conscience, he doesn't care what others say on.

The ministers waited for a short time before the old emperor came into the hall with Dai Quan's support. Although the old emperor looked the same as before, anyone who cared could find that the old emperor's pace was much slower than before.

The old emperor walked slowly to the imperial steps, and finally sat on the throne of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and then all the ministers knelt down together, shouted long live, and bowed three times and kowtowed nine times.

After the ministers saluted, as usual, Dai Quan stepped forward and shouted to the following: "All ministers, if you have a book, you will play it early, and if you don't have a book, you will leave the court."

Everyone knows what the big show is today?So no one came out to spoil the scenery at this time.

The old emperor sitting on the throne saw that everyone was speechless.Only then did he slowly say: "Since January, I have been feeling unwell, and coupled with my age, it is time to hand over this burden."

All the ministers were not surprised when they heard the emperor say this, but knelt down together in a tacit understanding, and said to the emperor together: "Your Majesty is in the heyday of Spring and Autumn, please think twice, Your Majesty."

The old emperor sat on the throne, watched the performances of the ministers below, smiled ironically on his face, and continued: "I know my body, for the sake of my ancestors, I have to reluctantly abdicate as the Supreme Emperor, and choose among the princes. One virtuous, to pass on the throne."

When the emperor said this, all the ministers knelt down together and shouted tacitly again: "Your Majesty, please take back the order, and the ministers dare not obey the edict."

The old emperor looked at them from above, thinking to himself, this is the second time, and the third time they should elect a new emperor.

"You don't need to say too much, I've made up my mind." The emperor could only cooperate with them to continue the performance.

So all the ministers knelt down for the third time, this time it was different from before, and all the ministers said together: "I will obey your Majesty's will."

The old emperor sat on the throne and watched this scene and found it funny. This scene has never been rehearsed. How could they be uniform and word for word.

"Who do you think this world should be handed over to?" The old emperor continued to play his role.

As soon as the old emperor finished asking, Pan Yong, Minister of Military Affairs and Minister of Rites, rushed out of the class and said: "I nominate the third prince. The third prince is very virtuous and talented. He is the best candidate to inherit the throne."

Immediately afterwards, the other three military ministers, Lei Ying, Tian Ye, and Liu Yu all stood up and expressed their agreement for the third prince to succeed to the throne.

As soon as these people stood up, everyone from their faction knelt in the hall together and shouted in unison: "Second."

At this time, apart from Jia Ke and Wang Ziteng, there were only a few people in the hall.Everyone else knelt in the middle of the hall.

Seeing this situation, Jia Ke felt chills, the third prince was really powerful.It is worthy of being the last person to win in the Dream of Red Mansions.His tactics are so powerful, he thought to himself that if he didn't have a golden finger, he wouldn't be worthy to lift the shoes of the third prince.This is the crushing of IQ. It can be seen that the ancients are not inferior to modern people, but their vision is not as broad as modern people. When it comes to IQ, modern people may not be comparable to these ancient people.

Sitting on the throne, the old emperor looked at the people kneeling in the center of the hall below, with a cold light in his eyes.But he finally held back, since the matter has been decided, there is no time to regret it.Besides, he didn't have to regret it. From then on, he could get away from the busy government affairs and recuperate well, but the Emperor Si couldn't escape his control.If there is any trouble in the heir emperor, he can mobilize the troops of Jia Ke and Wang Ziteng to wipe them all out.

The emperor calmed down his anger, and said to Tian Ye, the Minister of Military Affairs Zuodu Yushi, "Tian Ye, you used to be an imperial scholar, and you have a good literary talent. This time, you will be the one to draft the decree."

Tian Ye came out of the shift and knelt down on the ground. Immediately afterwards, two young eunuchs carried a short table and placed it in front of him. On the short table was a blank imperial edict and the Four Treasures of the Study.

Tian Ye picked up the pen, covered the inkstone with ink, and waited for the emperor's words.

"It has been forty-six years since I ascended the throne. The seas and rivers are clear, and the world is peaceful. The people are safe, and all nations are obedient. The officials are clear and bright, and the monarch and ministers are in harmony. Virtue is comparable to that of the ancestors, and the achievements are more hopeful for future generations. The third son of the emperor, the character is precious, Even Xiao Zhen bows, firmness cannot take away his ambition, and great confusion cannot move his heart. I want to pass on the throne to the third son of the emperor, and all the princes and ministers should work together to win the new king. The important ministers should support the prime minister carefully and help the country together." The emperor seems to be As if he had rehearsed long ago, he finished the speech in one breath.

Then he asked Tian Ye below, "Have you finished writing?"

When the emperor finished reading, Tian Ye had already stopped writing, as expected he was born in the Imperial Academy.

Tian Ye even held the finished work above his head, and at this time the little eunuch stepped forward, took the imperial decree and sent it to the emperor.

The emperor read the imperial decree from the beginning to the end, and then ordered people to use the seal. Dai Quan, who was next to him, asked softly, "Which side will your majesty use?"

"Use the treasure of the son of heaven." The emperor did not hesitate.

Dai Quan hurriedly ordered someone to take out the seal, which was two inches and four inches square, eight inches thick, and one inch and seven inches high. It was made of gold with twisted dragon buttons.Dai Quan carefully handed the seal to the emperor.

The emperor held this seal, and couldn't cover it for a long time. As long as the seal is covered, then the big thing will be settled.

The ministers also knelt down and looked at the emperor eagerly. Finally, the emperor gritted his teeth and sealed the seal.

Maybe it was too much force, the emperor started coughing violently as soon as he finished covering the seal, and even felt a little unsteady in his sitting position.

Dai Quan, who was beside him, hurried over and asked softly, "Long Live Lord, does it matter?"

The emperor pushed him away, he didn't want all the ministers to see him like this.After that, he said to Pan Yong: "Didn't you always recommend the third prince? I will give you the credit for this. You can take the imperial decree to the third prince's mansion to deliver the decree."

Chapter 305

Pan Yong was very happy at first, but suddenly he seemed to realize something, and looked up at the emperor.What met him was the emperor's gloomy gaze. Only then did he realize that the old emperor hadn't abdicated. Even if he abdicated, he would still be the Supreme Emperor. According to Jia Ke's method, he still held the power of the world.

He has been jumping up and down during this period of time, paving the way for the third prince to ascend the throne, and it can be said that he has offended the old emperor to death.The former relationship between monarch and minister is now gone.If the new emperor cannot guarantee his status in the future, then the world may not have a place for him.

But at this time there was no other way out, Pan Yong gritted his teeth and walked a few steps forward to pass the imperial decree.Then kowtowed to the old emperor again, and then exited the hall, only going to the third prince's mansion.
