Improper stepping stone for men

Ding Sheng is indeed an old fritter who has been in the court for more than [-] years. Without Yang Yan's further explanation, he made up the reason why the eldest prince sought him out. It's a good place to wait, and the opening and closing of the mouth are all ordered by His Royal Highness.

The ministers never expected that the eldest prince, whom they had always thought of as an idiot, would be so caring. They all praised him for his kindness, but the few princes were not very happy. Why did the elder brother suddenly become enlightened? Could it be that his father fell ill? Is the stimulus ready to seize power?

This is not good news for them. After all, the eldest prince has the advantage of status. As the eldest son, without a prince, if his father really can't make it this time, he can justifiably continue. bit.

With a sense of urgency in their hearts, they no longer cared about continuing to show their filial piety to the old emperor, and quietly retreated without attracting attention, and went to discuss countermeasures with their confidantes.

Yang Yan didn't teach people to sneak into the side hall before, so of course he couldn't come out with the eldest prince blatantly, and after they all left, he returned to the crowd as if he had come out, and just brought a few The prince's private actions can be seen in his eyes.

But he didn't pay much attention to it. The old emperor always held the military power firmly in his own hands. Most of these princes had civil servants in their hands, and no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't figure out any tricks.

As for whether he will be resisted by all the officials after seizing power, dare I ask, is there anything more legitimate than the eldest prince, the eldest son, succeeding to the throne?

Ding Sheng quickly took out the jade seal avoiding everyone's sight, and handed it to Yang Yan himself with the help of his wide sleeves to cover it up as he passed by.

I didn't bother to think about whether he was afraid that something would go wrong if he handed it over to the eldest prince, or if he was unwilling to sow discord. After getting the things, Yang Yan quietly winked at the eldest prince, and went back home with the excuse of feeling unwell.

All the ministers witnessed a green hat falling on his head tonight, and they all looked at him with sympathy, but no one had any doubts, they only thought that he was in a bad mood because of this incident.

As for his being disrespectful to the emperor by only caring about his own concerns and not worrying about the dragon body when the emperor was seriously ill and life and death were uncertain?

This kind of matter will be decided by His Majesty after he recovers, and it is not their turn to point fingers here. Anyway, if the Emperor wants to punish them, he will not be able to punish them, so why bother meddling?

In this way, Yang Yan swaggered out of the palace with the jade seal without anyone noticing.

Ding Sheng is indeed a talent for internal affairs, he actually remembered to prepare a few blank imperial edicts for him, found Wu Xingwen to fill them out, and distributed them to his subordinates, and everyone scattered to the military camps in various parts of the capital.

Military advisor Wu Xingwen personally went to the Xicheng barracks to gather [-] soldiers from the Northwest, and marched towards the capital in mighty force. The city gate guard was the old emperor's confidant, and he still refused to let go after seeing the imperial decree. Yang Yan, who was specially left in the capital to respond, flew up With one move to kill, this court coup officially kicked off.

Along the way, he half relied on the imperial decree to open the way, and the other half forced his way in. Within an hour, Yang Yan brought the army into the palace, and after killing the commander of the imperial army, he took the entire palace into his hands.

His timing was just right, and before the officials had time to accuse him of committing chaos, the imperial doctor announced that the old emperor had suffered from a stroke. Although he saved his life, he might have to lie in bed for the rest of his life.

Moreover, his eyes were crooked, his mouth was slanted, he couldn't even speak clearly, his hands were trembling and he couldn't hold a pen, obviously he couldn't deal with the government anymore.

Yang Yan was also unambiguous, and immediately knelt down on one knee to the eldest prince, asking him to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor.

All the ministers thought that he brought troops into the palace to take advantage of the rebellion and cause chaos, and establish himself as the emperor. They didn't want to get such a result, and the people who were going to fight him to the death couldn't help but hesitate.

Although the eldest prince's talent is a little mediocre, but as the eldest son, he has taken the righteousness first. It seems that there is nothing wrong with embracing him as the emperor, at least it is much easier to accept than Ning Guogong's conspiracy.

Just such a hesitation, a few people who are used to meeting the wind and the wind already knelt down and said "long live", and most of the people hesitantly knelt down, and the matter was now a foregone conclusion.

Although the other princes hated to death in their hearts, they knew that the overall situation was settled, and they were dealt with on the spot for not being the first bird, so they could only endure the unwillingness in their hearts to bow their heads and accept their fate.

The eldest prince never thought that he could easily obtain the throne that he had dreamed of for 30 or [-] years. He was overjoyed for a while, and after accepting the worship of everyone, he couldn't wait to confer the title of Ning Guogong, the great hero, as King Ning.

The Dalin Dynasty only granted rewards to kings with different surnames at the beginning of the founding of the country. After several generations, they were deposed one after another due to various reasons. After that, the two generations before this dynasty never granted rewards again, because the successive emperors They are unwilling to divide the power in their hands.

Unexpectedly, before the new emperor ascended the throne, he muddleheadedly set the precedent. Some loyal courtiers frowned after hearing this.

However, they were frightened by the power of the new King Ning, and they were afraid that strong opposition would anger him, and it would be bad if he suddenly turned violent, so they could only acquiesce in the absurd decision of the First Prince.

But they are all worried about the future of the court. Can such a person without political sensitivity really be a good emperor and understand the government?

Regardless of what the ministers thought in their hearts, Yang Yan imprisoned all the second to eighth princes except the fourth prince in the palace in the name of sickness, and asked Qin Tianjian to choose an auspicious day for enthronement, and the eldest prince became the eldest prince. The new emperor of the dynasty is already unstoppable.

After the ministers experienced a small shock, they were sent home by themselves. All the way, they were silent and worried about themselves and the future of the country. As for the seriously ill old emperor, few people still remember him. up.

On the contrary, the Eldest Prince always complained about his father's partiality in the past, but now that he has got his wish, he is relieved.

Seriously told the eunuchs and maids in the palace to take care of him carefully, and the imperial physician must do his best to treat him, no matter what rare medicinal materials are needed, he will send people to find them whenever necessary, and he has the appearance of a dutiful son.

It's a pity that the old emperor was injured by Yang Yan's energy that penetrated into his body, and he has been in a coma until now, unable to personally feel his rare filial piety.

Although it will take some days before he officially enthrones, the eldest prince is already impatiently preparing to move into the palace and does not intend to leave this place.

After sending away a group of ministers, he ordered people to clean the palace, and sent people to pick up the eldest concubine and children into the palace, and it was at this time that he remembered that there was still one person who needed to be dealt with.

Although he promised Ning Guogong to release Ding Sheng, he thought about it and still didn't want the news of threatening Yuxi today to spread. Ning Guogong is an accomplice, so he is not worried, but Ding Sheng is a variable. Of course, the best secret in the world is dead.

But when he thought about looking for someone, he found that this cunning old eunuch had slipped out of the palace without knowing when.

"This dog slave runs fast!" The eldest prince groaned after hearing this, "Duke Ning, no, this king, um, I should call you King Ning."

The eldest prince changed his words unaccustomedly, and a smug smile first appeared on his face: "Didn't King Ning seize the daughter and grandson of that old thing? You are going to put him in the sky prison, and wait for Ding Sheng to win that old thing." I have thrown myself into a trap, let me take him..."

He made a gesture of wiping his neck, and Bai Shengsheng's fat face looked particularly ferocious.

"But I let you go after getting the jade seal..." Yang Yan showed a look of embarrassment on his face, "Now the mother and son don't know where they went, why don't I send someone to look for them?"

This is of course not the truth, as he said before, Jiaoniang's mother and son are also poor people, although he threatened Ding Sheng with them as hostages, but in fact he never asked anyone to disturb them.

Even Ding Sheng was able to escape from the palace so smoothly because he turned a blind eye and let people out.

Calculated at this time, it is estimated that he has left the capital with his daughter and grandson. As for their whereabouts, of course they can be found out, but why does he insist on not leaving a way for others to survive?

"Why didn't you discuss it with the king in advance?" The eldest prince was anxious, and forgot that he should change his name.

"Isn't this what you promised Director Ding before?" Yang Yan asked innocently.

"Prince Ning, you are too sincere!" The eldest prince looked at him with a look of hatred, "Forget it, everyone has been let go, it's too late to say anything now."

He thought for a while and thought that if he really sent people to hunt him down, he might push them into a hurry instead, and it would be bad if any rumors spread.

"There's no need to look for it," he finally waved his hand helplessly, and said, "I hope Ding Sheng, this dog slave, can understand and keep his mouth shut. Otherwise, I will dig him, and that fellow The two mothers and sons are dug out together, and Ling Chi will be executed!"

Yang Yan was not at all surprised by the sudden outburst of hostility on his body. With the change of identity, a person's temperament would have shifted, and the eldest prince was not a kind person in the first place.

"I think Manager Ding cares about his family, so he doesn't dare to do unwise things." He only responded lightly.

"Prince Ning has been tired all day today, why don't you go back to the mansion early to rest." Because of this incident, the eldest prince already had some dissatisfaction with him, but it was not a big deal, and he was not good either. Now that the hero is out, he only said indifferently.

How could Yang Yan fail to see his heart?He couldn't help sneering in his heart, this person and the old emperor deserved to be blood relatives, they are both descended from the same strain.

It's just that the old emperor is a man of great wealth and has done a good job on the surface, but the eldest prince is much more tender, and he can't even hide his emotions.

"The minister will take his leave first." Yang Yanquan pretended not to notice, and after a little salute, he turned his head and returned to the mansion.
