Waste prince: Why do you force me to be emperor?

now.

Royal palace, in the study.

Secret reports from the Imperial City Department were constantly sent into the room, and Eunuch Wei reported the situation on each "road to court" one by one.

Emperor Xia closed his eyes and listened.

Finally, after hearing about Xia Tian's "You Tiao Stall" being knelt down, he opened his eagle eyes and said with a confused expression: "It's really good to eliminate the evil forces in the imperial capital and make the prince more loved by the people!"

"Okay!"

Eunuch Wei followed the words and said: "Actually, the reason why the prince has such a reputation among the people is because His Majesty gave him great power, and the prince was able to successfully implement the plan to purge the imperial capital!"

"In terms of merit, His Majesty should be the first!"

"This reputation should belong to His Majesty!"

"It's a pity that those common people have limited knowledge and cannot see that His Majesty is behind this matter. It is His Majesty's intention to eliminate the evil forces in the imperial capital!"

heard.

"Hahaha......"

Emperor Xia smiled happily: "You are still an old guy who can talk!"

"Indeed, I should get the greatest credit for running the imperial capital, and the prince can only be ranked second!"

Having said this, Emperor Xia said to the historian next to him who was recording his words and deeds: "Record this incident so that future generations of history readers can take a good look... The credit for managing the imperial capital this time belongs to me!"

"Yes!"

The historian stopped writing and said respectfully: "The official will record the entire incident of the imperial capital's renovation!"

"This operation to clean up the imperial capital has swept away the smog of the past in the imperial capital, and returned the people to safety, tranquility, and laughter. The effect is very good!"

"But whether it is His Majesty's fault... I still have not made a conclusion, leaving it to future generations of historians to comment!"

Emperor Xia: "..."

"You have to write down my delegation of power to the prince, so that future generations can take a good look at my magnanimity and magnanimity!"

"Let future generations know about my wisdom and martial prowess!"

"Yes!"

This time, the historian did not refuse.

Emperor Xia then asked: "Old man, has the person who assassinated me been found?"

"I haven't found it yet!"

"Any clues?"

"Have!"

Eunuch Wei said solemnly: "It's an assassin from the sea!"

"maritime?"

Emperor Xia frowned: "Are they the immortal seekers sent to sea by the former Qin Dynasty?"

"Not sure!"

"Are those the people I sent to sea when I founded our country?"

"Not sure either!"

Eunuch Wei was very cautious about this: "There is another possibility. The assassin may be a shark!"

"Mermaid?"

Emperor Xia's eyes sparkled: "What an ancient name!"

"Could they come here to find..."

Emperor Xia didn't finish his words and directly changed the subject: "Is there any battle report coming from the border?"

"No battle report!"

"Only secret reports!"

Eunuch Wei shook his head: "In the past few days, intelligence has been sent back from the border, saying that troops from the three countries have been mobilized on the border of Huangzhou, Qingzhou border, and the barbarian border. However, there is no sign of attacking the border!"

"After reading the intelligence, the few remaining officials from the Ministry of War said... The three empires are all stationed at the border, waiting for the snow to melt, and they are expected to attack in the coming spring!"

"We don't have much time left to prepare for war!"

Emperor Xia narrowed his eagle eyes and calculated: "Now Li Jian is in charge in the north, and Huangzhou Army is stationed in Huangzhou. I am not too worried about these two directions!"

"But there are no generals stationed in the border town of Qingzhou. If the Blackman army comes knocking on the border, I'm worried that something will happen to Li Fei, who is inexperienced!"

"Send the order to strengthen the investigation of Qingzhou's border town. If the border town is attacked, report it immediately!"

"According to the order!"

Eunuch Wei said: "Your Majesty, it's time to go to court!"

"Let's go!"

"Yes!"

After half a stick of incense.

In Tianxia Palace.

"...Long live my emperor..."

"Get up!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Xia Tian led the courtiers to stand up!

Behind him, the Second Prince, the Third Prince, the Fifth Prince and Left Prime Minister Sima Jian stood side by side. The four of them had different expressions. They were a unique sight in the Tianxia Palace.

Behind the four people were the imperial censors and royal nobles.

After that, there were old ministers from the previous dynasty and officials who had not participated in the rebellion this time, including civil servants and military generals, all with red faces and eyes full of expectation!

Finally, there are the heads of the humble families and small families who participated in quelling the chaos this time. The leaders are Jiang Chaoshang and Zhou Yuan!

At this time.

Emperor Xia stood up from the dragon chair and looked at the sparse group of ministers with mixed emotions.

He adjusted his emotions and spoke with a majestic face to encourage morale: "My dear friends, after experiencing the rebellion of the wealthy and aristocratic families, although the imperial court has lost some vitality, the imperial court still has you, and all the people in the world still have you... I will I feel that the Great Xia Empire has a promising future!”

"The prince has a good saying, if you don't destroy it, you won't build it. If you break it and then build it, you will be stronger!"

"In the past, the major families headed by Zhang Shu were unwilling to make progress. They asked for countless benefits from the court and the world without knowing anything in return. They not only took advantage of the natural disasters to enrich the country, but also tried to rob me of my great wealth. It really makes me angry!"

"Fortunately, I was prepared early, fortunately the prince and the princes joined forces, fortunately the families who supported the court came forward, and the rebellion was put down at the minimum cost!"

"Not long ago, the prince wrote a letter to express his merit for those who put down the rebellion!"

"I have seen everyone's achievements, and they all deserve heavy rewards!"

Emperor Xia said enthusiastically: "Prince!"

"My son is here!"

"I agree with most of your rewards!"

Mostly agreeing means...and some disagreeing!

Xia Tian asked calmly: "Father, which part do you disagree with?"

"Rewards from each family!"

After saying this, the whole hall was silent, and everyone pricked up their ears to listen!

Emperor Xia continued: "If you only reward each family with gold, silver and jewels, if you only grant titles but not officials... the people of the world will poke the backbone of the imperial court, say that the Xia Empire has treated its meritorious officials badly, and say that I have crossed the river and burned down the bridge! "

"What do you say?"

Emperor Xia glanced at where Jiang Chaoshang and Zhou Yuan were. Looking at the unhappy family heads, he felt very good!

These new rich people must not become the prince's people!

The balance of the court is very important!

then.

He set his sights on the three princes again!

Immediately.

The second prince, the third prince, and the fifth prince came out at the same time, and they all saluted respectfully: "My father is wise, and my sons and ministers support me!"

"We can't chill the hearts of the hero's family!"

The third prince spoke righteously: "Every family that dares to send troops to defend the imperial court when it is weak is a role model. Not only should we reward gold, silver, jewels and titles, we should also select outstanding disciples from each family as officials, so that the world can see our imperial court." Never treat heroes unfairly!"

The second prince and the fifth prince said in unison: "I second the proposal!"

At this time.

Left Prime Minister Sima Jian also stepped forward: "Your Majesty, I second my opinion!"

"Every family has made great contributions in quelling this chaos, and they should be rewarded heavily to reassure people!"

suddenly.

The officials in the palace discovered a fact...The Emperor of Daxia, the three princes, and Prime Minister Zuo are joining forces to fight against the prince!

There is still an undercurrent surging in the court, and the water is very deep!

Moreover, the prince seems to be alone!

suddenly.

When they saw Xia Xia turning around, they looked at Zhou Yuan and asked, "Master Zhou, what do you think?"

"Do you think being alone is unfair to each of your families?"

The third prince smiled!

Stinky old Jiu, just wait to be embarrassed!

Zhou Yuan is one of his people: "Master Zhou, if you have anything to say, Your Majesty and I will make the decision for you!"

Immediately.

The whole hall is waiting for answers...
