I!The mortal emperor, the whole country invaded the fairyland

Dang was attacked by many old ministers.

All of them have entered the year of knowing their destiny, reaching their fifties.

There is only one word "loyalty" and one word "li" in my heart.

Previously, the two admonishing officials proposed that the young should not be established, and the concubine should not be established, which shows that it has really touched the bottom line of the veteran officials.

So one by one spoke out in anger, and the hall was full of speeches about etiquette, loyalty and filial piety.

The backs of the two advising doctors couldn't help getting wet.

However, in the face of everyone's refutation, the two of them could only treat it as if they hadn't heard it.

After all, they are just the vanguard launched by others, the matter has been completed, and the rest has nothing to do with them.

"Cough cough..."

There was a commotion in the hall, and Situ Wangmin coughed a few times, which attracted everyone's attention.

Taking a step to the left, he said to the head of Zhao Ji:

"Second Madam, please take out the secret edict."

As soon as the words fell, all the officials were shocked.

Even the noisy ministers above the main hall became quiet one by one.

Their eyes were full of puzzlement, and they all focused on the second lady and Situ Wangmin.

"Secret order..."

"What secret edict?"

Just when all the ministers were confused, the second lady waved her hand and nodded to the servant who had already been prepared.

The latter bowed respectfully, and then slowly opened a volume of secret orders in front of him in the silence of the hall.

"King Jiang's secret decree: The day of the king's death is approaching, so it is said that it is located in Ergongzihai.

The second son is benevolent and filial, good at counseling him, he should keep in mind that the benefit of the world is for profit, the heart of the world is for the heart, he is a group of officials, sons and common people;

To protect the country before it is in danger, and to rule it before it is chaotic, work hard all day and night, sleep well, combine leniency with strictness, and use economic power interoperably, just for the sake of the country's long-term plan.

Protecting the country and defending the country, this king's last wish has been fulfilled! "

The servant's voice sounded in the main hall, until the last word was finished, there was still silence in the main hall.

"This secret edict was personally stated by the late king before his death.

If you ministers have any doubts, you can come and check the authenticity. "

Zhao Ji's tone was sincere, after the words fell to the ground.

It can be seen that many old ministers have already rushed to the secret edict that the servant Gongzheng is placing on the case, wanting to find out the truth.

This is a big matter, involving the succession of the throne, and there is no room for adulteration in this matter.

From the entrusted case, he took out the cloth, and several veteran ministers of Jiang Guo read it word by word.

But I saw that the words on the cloth were the same as those announced by the servant just now, and on the back of the cloth, the four characters "Zhennan Wangxi" were stamped on it.

"This this……"

The expressions of some veteran officials became extremely agitated, holding the cloth in their old palms, and felt that the succession of the important event suddenly became confusing.

The first king established a secret edict and passed on the throne to the second son.

Then why not abolish the position of the son of the world?

Now that the son is safe, according to the laws of the Great Xia, the son should inherit the throne, but wouldn't this be against the secret edict?

For a while, the veterans looked at each other, only feeling that there were many doubts and difficulties in this matter.

"How many doctors can recognize the seal on the secret edict, have they ever faked it?"

Seeing that several ministers who had originally objected more and more fiercely, when they saw the secret edict, they all died down.

The second lady couldn't help asking, her eyes showed a certainty in her chest.

"Mrs. Hui, never..."

"This, however, belongs to the seal of the former king Zhennan King..."

……

It seems that he did not see the expressions full of doubts and hesitation of the doctors.

Zhao Ji then said:

"Since this is the case, then my son inherits the throne and acts according to the imperial edict. What's wrong?"

"This……"

Several veterans faced difficulties.

Although their hearts are still toward the son, but now there is a variable of secret edict.

They could no longer accuse the second wife and the courtiers who supported the second son for acting absurdly and violating the rules of etiquette. .

Chapter 16

Although the law of Great Xia said that the matter of succession had been stipulated since the establishment of the dynasty, it only came into effect when the princes and kings under it died suddenly and did not leave any edicts.

Now that there are twists and turns and the issue of secret edicts, only the princes themselves will make a decision first.

Otherwise, even if you report to the Great Xia Dynasty, you will only get a kind reply.

After all, the current Great Xia Dynasty is too busy to take care of itself, let alone meddling in the affairs of the vassal states within it.

"Since the late king had a secret edict, we, the subjects, should obey the late king's will and support the second son to succeed us!"

Seeing that all the veterans are in a dilemma, the time seems to be ripe.

Situ Wangmin immediately stepped forward and bowed slightly, expressing his position directly.

As soon as the words fell, Sikong Ge Qi and a group of ministers who had already discussed earlier stepped forward and bowed slightly to the secret edict:

"We should follow the secret edict of the former king and respect the second son as the king of the Jiang Kingdom!"

……

A total of seven or eight voices supporting the second son's succession to the throne resounded through the main hall.

For a while, the other ministers who did not express their views looked at the two people standing in the front row, their pupils shrank suddenly, as if suddenly enlightened.

Situ, Sikong.

Situ governs civil affairs and is in charge of household registration; Sikong is in charge of land and compiles taxes.

It can be said that among Jiang Guo, Sima and Si Kou are the heads of all the ministers.

Now that the second wife and the second son have gained the support of these two important ministers early on, it is no wonder that they are confident about the second son's succession to the throne this time.

Seeing this, everyone couldn't help turning their eyes to Sima and Si Kou who also had a great say in the front row.

But at this moment, Sima Chu Zhongyi, who is in charge of the military, and Si Kou Fu Guang, who is in charge of the prison proceedings, are closing their eyes and resting their minds.

It's nothing to do with yourself, hang it high, and turn a deaf ear to everything in the court.

In retrospect, it seems that from the beginning of the court meeting in the main hall to the current support for the appointment of the second son as the successor, neither of them expressed any opinions.

Neither supported nor opposed.

The two of them seemed to be completely transparent, and they didn't know what they were thinking in their hearts.

"Hahaha……"

"Absurd! Extremely absurd!"

Just when nearly ten doctors came out to support the Second Young Master to take the throne, Jiang Tianhai's face showed hope.

A voice of furious threats resounded through the hall, the words were so fierce that even the two important ministers, Situ and Sikong, didn't pay attention to them.

Everyone's hearts twisted, and they hurriedly looked around.

But saw an old man with white hair and beard, but still quite tough and hale and hearty, walking to the center of the hall.

The old man stood upright, and there seemed to be a remnant of righteousness all over his body.

At this moment, because of anger, there was still a little flush on his face.

But the other party didn't care at all, even if he met the second lady's cold eyes, he still didn't back down.

"Above the main hall, why did Master Zuo say such vulgar words?

Could it be that the late king passed away, and Master Zuo was bold enough to ignore the last edict of the late king? ! "

Situ Wangmin frowned slightly, and his voice echoed faintly in the main hall, as if the temperature in the hall dropped a little for a while.

"Hehe, I dare not disobey the edict of the late king!"

"Your Majesty Wang, you don't need to use officials to coerce me. I have served Jiang Guo for more than forty years;

Ask yourself if you are worthy of the monarch above, and you are worthy of the people below.Everything you do is worthy of your heart! "

"But today we see someone wanting to seize the throne, ignoring the laws of the Great Xia, and rebelling against the chaotic government! But they have to stand up!

Otherwise, my Jiang country will definitely be destroyed in the hands of a woman! "

Master Zuo Cheng Yu's voice fell on the main hall, and many ministers who did not support Jiang Tianhai's succession to the throne suddenly felt a sweat in their hearts.

"Destroyed in the hands of a woman..."

"This... Master Zuo really dares to say that!"

The meaning of Cheng Yu's words was almost self-evident.

Many people cast their eyes on Zhao Ji, the second lady who is now sitting on the throne.

Sure enough, after Cheng Yu's words came out, the other party's face showed a sullen look.

Conspiring to seize the throne, rebelling against the court... What a big hat...

"Cheng Yu! Above the main hall of the court, how can you allow you to speak nonsense?!"

Situ Wangmin opened his eyes, turned around and shouted angrily.

"Now that the late king's edict has been verified by all the doctors, if Master Zuo doesn't believe it, he can also find out if it is true or not!

Now that the imperial edict has not been checked, Master Zuo is attacking the courtiers wantonly, what is his intention? !

Cheng Yu's expression didn't change in the slightest as Wang Min's scolding sounded in his ears.

However, his eyes were like a sharp sword out of its sheath, scanning Situ Wangmin, and then suddenly laughed several times.

Until the courtiers didn't understand what Master Zuo was laughing at;

Cheng Yu stopped laughing and said directly:

"Lord Wang, don't confuse the public!

The old man said before that if it was the edict of the late king, the old man would definitely not comment on it. "

"But the edict is the edict, and the secret edict is the secret edict!

It has been a few days since the late king passed away, at this moment the second lady suddenly took out a secret edict to explain the matter, could it be that the old man is really dizzy?

The old man reminds all colleagues, don't you forget who is the person who kept the king's seal when the king passed away? ! "

"presumptuous!"

As soon as Cheng Yu's words fell, from the throne above, the angry voice of refutation from the second wife Zhao Ji followed closely.

Punish people and punish their hearts, nothing more than that.

This is close to pointing her nose at her and scolding Zhao Ji for conspiring to overthrow Jiang Guo!
