The system forced me to be emperor

Emperor Xia put down the book and asked, "What do you want to ask?"

Xiao Feng took a deep breath, and finally asked the difficult problem that was suppressed in his heart: "Father, how can my sons and ministers be inferior to the crown prince? Is it because your majesty appointed Xiao Rui as the crown prince because he is the son of Concubine Rong?"

As soon as these words came out, the officials in the imperial study room and the imperial guards looked shocked, and then lowered their heads.

Emperor Xia looked at Xiao Feng in surprise, and shouted: "Presumptuous! Don't back down!"

Xiao Feng did not get up on his knees, twisted straight: "Father ruled the country righteously, the selection of the crown prince is not based on the eldest son, but the crown prince who is outstanding, although it violates the ancestral precepts, it is for the prosperity of the Great Xia. I admire you! But if the actual purpose of all this is to establish Xiao Rui as the crown prince, not only will my son not be convinced, but he will also look down on father!"

"Bold!" Emperor Xia yelled angrily, and suddenly slammed the table up, "The position of the crown prince is determined by me. Whoever I appoint as the crown prince is my idea. Who gave you the courage to criticize me?"

Xiao Feng looked at Emperor Xia boldly, without any fear: "My minister is presumptuous today because he refuses to accept!"

"Dissatisfied?"

Emperor Xia sneered, then got up and walked down.He stopped in front of Xiao Feng, looked down at Xiao Feng, and asked: "I ask you, why are you not convinced? If you are the crown prince, what can you do in these four years?"

Xiao Feng replied: "What Xiao Rui can do, I can do it! What's so difficult about leading Iron Dragon Riders into Qi? I also dare to go deep into Zhao and assassinate Emperor Zhao!"

"Is there any more?" Emperor Xia continued to ask.

Xiao Feng said: "I boast that my ability is no worse than Xiao Rui, he..."

"Ha ha..."

Xia Huang laughed suddenly, interrupting Xiao Feng's answer.

After laughing, Emperor Xia asked word by word: "If you are the prince, can you bring gunpowder to Great Xia to deter the enemy?"

"If you are the prince, can you bring new crops to Daxia? Do you know the yield of corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and cotton, and how many people in Daxia can they save?"

"If you are the prince, are you willing to bear the pressure to punish the family and clan?"

"If you are the prince, can you stabilize the fourteen prefectures of Anxi within two years, and the people of Zhao will return to their hearts, and the granaries will be full?"

"If you are the crown prince, can you bring excellent civil servants and military generals to Daxia, who can govern the country?"

"If you were the crown prince, would you do it yourself for the common people?"

The continuous questioning left Xiao Feng speechless.

Emperor Xia said again: "Do you think you have the ability to be a crown prince? Let me ask you, this world is plagued by disasters, droughts, floods, locusts, cold winter... What are you doing when these disasters occur one after another?"

"I can tell you that you have always wanted to leave the capital and take control of the military! Even if you don't care about the life and death of the people, have you ever cared about the future of Daxia? Without the people, where is the kingdom of Daxia? Have you ever thought about disaster relief? ?”

"So you ask yourself, if I make you the crown prince, can you do better than Xiao Rui?"

"You are not convinced, do you deserve it?"

......

After scolding, Emperor Xia sat on the dragon chair.

Xiao Feng was silent.

Whether or not His Majesty intends to make Xiao Rui the crown prince is not important anymore, what matters is that other princes are crown princes, dare to say that Xiao Rui is the best?

Xiao Feng was scolded for being speechless, but he laughed, and then asked: "Father, I have one last question. Does Father remember my son's birthday?"

Emperor Xia nodded, his tone softened, and said: "It was the third day of the fifth lunar month. I remember it was a rainy night. Your mother and concubine had a difficult delivery. I stood outside the palace and waited for an hour. When you were born, the rainstorm stopped. I also praised the birth of a Linzi."

Hearing these words, Xiao Feng's accumulated emotions finally broke out, and he couldn't help but shed tears.

Yes, my ten fingers are all long and short, not to mention feelings.His Majesty may love Xiao Rui more, but he also loves other children.

"My son is guilty, before my father punishes me, I still have one important thing to do, I beg my father's permission!" Xiao Feng said solemnly.

Xia Huang stared and shouted: "Get out, if you continue to mess around, don't blame me for severely punishing you!"

Xiao Feng shook his head and said: "Royal Father, the death of the King of Chu was not done by the assassins of Zhao State, I know who the real culprit is! But please allow me to do one thing with Royal Father's kindness, and I will tell you the truth!"

Xia Huang was stunned, as if he understood something, he immediately patted on the dragon case, and shouted: "Get lost! Don't scare me here!"

Seeing this scene, Xiao Feng was not afraid, but moved.

Just like what Huang Qilin said, did His Majesty really never suspect that the death of King Chu was tricky?

Now His Majesty's reluctance to reveal the truth, isn't it a kind of protection for Xiao Feng?

A small incident made Xiao Feng feel the love of his father that he had never felt before. It turned out that it wasn't that his father didn't love him, but that he forged a wall.

"My son has made up his mind, I beg my father for permission! My son has no regrets even though he died!" Xiao Feng bowed.

Seeing his determination, Emperor Xia asked, "What exactly do you want to do?"

Xiao Feng said: "Invite the prince to come here, Your Majesty will know!"

Emperor Xia had no choice but to order someone to call Xiao Rui.

Xiao Rui was discussing cotton planting with several cabinet scholars when he was called away by an internal official who rushed over.

After inquiring, I found out that Xiao Feng had quarreled with His Majesty in the Imperial Study Room, what happened after Xiao Feng met Huang Qilin?How did you come up with this big show!

When Xiao Rui came to the imperial study, he saw Xiao Feng kneeling on the ground, and Xiao Rui paid his respects to His Majesty.

Emperor Xia nodded, looked at Xiao Feng and asked: "The prince is here, what the hell are you going to do?"

Xiao Feng stood up and said: "I want to compete with the prince again, and it will be the last match!"

Xiao Rui looked at Xiao Feng in surprise, what the hell is this guy doing, he wants to fight with himself here?

Emperor Xia was also angry, and said angrily: "Prince Duan, you have come to a limit by now, come here, take him out, and lock him up in the palace!"

It's a pity, before the imperial army stepped forward, Xiao Feng shot directly and slapped Xiao Rui with his palm.

Xiao Rui had no choice but to fight back with his punches, and at the same time he was very angry inside, did I come here just to be beaten?

Just like that, the two of them fought together in an instant.

The imperial guards looked around, not daring to act recklessly, Emperor Xia sighed, waved his hands to make the imperial guards back down, and let the two fight it out.

The last time they fought in Qishui County when they joined forces, the two were exhausted, and there was no winner.Now that two years have passed, both of them have made great progress, so we don't know how to win or lose.

But what Xiao Rui was curious about was what Xiao Feng said, why would it be the last contest, and what exactly is Xiao Feng's plan?

But at this moment Xiao Rui could no longer think about it, he had to deal with Xiao Feng well.

The fists and feet had no eyes, and the two fisted to the flesh in the imperial study room without mercy.
