After the three cabinet bachelors left, except for some palace maids and eunuchs, Emperor Jing Xing was the only one left in the Nuan Pavilion.
He looked at the night sky, feeling a little confused.
The prince was born to him and Empress Zhang. Empress Zhang was a virtuous and virtuous woman who held the position of empress and was regarded as the most respected mother in the world.
They were deeply married to him, and the prince was the eldest son of him and Empress Zhang. Among the many sons born to concubines in the harem, there was no doubt about his position as the eldest son.
According to the tradition of establishing the elder rather than the younger, there is no problem in appointing Liu Yu as the crown prince and the crown prince.
But unexpectedly, the second prince Liu Jing appeared!
Thinking of this son, even if Emperor Jing Xing was in a bad mood at the moment, there was still a smile on his face.
Liu Jing was born to him and Concubine Yang. Since his birth, he has been known as a child prodigy.
The art of bowing and horsemanship, the writings of saints, and the way of being a king can all be mastered in one step.
Moreover, his character and behavior are both gentle and kind, and he has the style of an ancient gentleman.
Both inside and outside the imperial court, the civil servants group who regarded themselves as pure people, or the noble group who made their fortune through bravery and martial arts, all praised him.
Even... even a few years ago, there were calls from the people to depose the prince and make King Zunjing!
If the prince is more virtuous, as the emperor, and since Daqian has always had the tradition of establishing the elders rather than the young, he can certainly withstand the pressure for the prince.
But the prince is too naughty!
Even compared with Li Changkong's reputation as a playboy, it's not much more!
That is to say, if he is born in the royal family, if he is born in other families, he will be a dandy with no learning and skills.
To put it bluntly, the current prince really made him unable to rest assured that he would entrust the throne to him after a hundred years.
After all, this throne not only represents the supreme authority of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, but also represents the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains of Daqian, the country, the country, and millions of people!
If the king only sees power but no responsibility, the country and the country may inevitably be destroyed.
But... deposing the crown prince is a big deal!
Once implemented, I am afraid that the government and the opposition will be turbulent and civil strife will break out.
Now, in the north of Daqian, Beiyuan is eyeing the enemy and is ready to go.
The two countries of Jin and Chen in the west and south have comparable national strength and power compared to the great powers.
Daqian can be said to be in a place of four battles. Once Bei Yuan goes south, he will have no way to retreat and can only resist.
After all, there is only the sea to the east, to the west you have to fight the Western Jin Dynasty, and to the south you have to fight Nanchen City. It is also a battle!
But can Daqian really stop Beiyuan?
Faced with such an inquiry, even the Chu State, which was as powerful as the Emperor's country and had enfeoffed all the kingdoms in the four directions, would not dare to say anything arrogant.
Or maybe the Western Qin Dynasty, which is famous for its soldiers and horses, and claims that the cavalry is the only one that can compete with the Northern Yuan Dynasty, may not dare to boast about it.
You know, even if the combined national strength of the three eastern kingdoms is not as strong as that of Da Chu.
The combined armies of the Three Kingdoms may not be able to match the Tiger and Wolf divisions of Western Qin!
They were not sure about facing Beiyuan, let alone Daqian?
In such a situation where foreign troubles are rampant and enemies are on all sides, the crown prince should be abolished?
I'm afraid it's the way to die.
But if Li Changkong and others were not charged into the East Palace, but into Prince Jing's Mansion, then... it would be a bit obvious.
After all, from ancient times to the present, no noble disciples who participated in the school review have been appointed to serve in the prince's palace.
After all, after the prince opened his palace, the people in his palace could not even be called officials!
It seems that I actually have no choice.
Emperor Jing Xing looked towards the sky and sighed slightly, but he already had a decision in his heart.
…
Wulinghou Mansion.
Zhang Xu and Li Zhufeng sat face to face, and the desk between them was filled with wine and meat.
boom!
Zhang Xun threw down his wine glass and said, "What a sin!"
"Zhang Han, this treacherous son! You really deserved to join my Zhang family in vain. You are not a good and honorable son, and you have to go to school!"
"What's the point of reading?"
"Let me tell you, I happened to be present when the Holy Father was reviewing the essay papers a few days ago."
"One candidate wrote a strategy called Shanziying. It really shocked everyone. Not to mention the saints, even our old brothers who have been fighting for a long time had to praise each other after reading it. .”
"Such an article must have been written by those children who have been familiar with military literature since childhood."
"Zhang Han is a half-assed person, he just studied for a few years, so what?"
"I'm afraid the strategy I wrote is not even half a word worth it!"
"My family is unlucky. It's really my family's misfortune!"
After a few glasses of wine, Zhang Xun was obviously a little drunk, and he complained bitterly to Li Zhufeng.
In fact, the gold content of this literary test was destined to surpass that of the martial arts test the moment the question "Why Suppressed the Western Jin Dynasty" came up.
If Zhang Han can really achieve certain results in the literary test, not to mention writing strategies like Shanziying, it would be great to be ranked among the top few.
He, Zhang Xun, was satisfied. After all, who said that leading an army in a war must lead by example? Isn’t it true that Confucian generals are incompetent?
As long as you have a strategy in mind, can strategize and win a victory thousands of miles away, no one can say anything wrong!
But Zhang Han doesn't have this ability!
Now that I am in the embarrassing situation of being unable to do anything, I am really embarrassed!
Li Zhufeng listened and drank without talking.
It was his grandma's, and he wanted to comfort her a little, but then he thought about it, where did he get the qualifications?
Zhang Xun's son is willing to study hard.
Where is his son?
That is the Tai Sui from heaven descending to earth, the evil star on earth!
It's already a blessing if you don't go out and cause harm to the world.
If you are willing to study hard, it means that the ancestral graves are smoking, and the ancestors have accumulated bad virtues!
As for whether he could practice martial arts or whether he could inherit the old Li family's unique skills, he never dared to think about it.
So...if it were the other way around, and Zhang Han was his son, I'm afraid he would be able to wake up laughing from his dreams at night.
It's a good thing that Zhang Xun is here crying for his father and mother and drinking too much.
Comparing people to each other was really irritating, and he was depressed.
Bang bang bang!
At this moment, the door of Wulinghou Mansion was suddenly knocked, and the knocking was rapid and fierce, as if there was something important.
After Butler Yang opened the door, he saw a young man in Tsing Yi entering the door and shouted: "Master! Young master is in high school! He got second place in the school's essay test!"
Even if he shouted until he was out of breath, he wouldn't stop.
brush!
When Zhang Xun heard this, he stood up with a shudder, his whole body trembled, his eyes widened, and he became even more excited when he realized that the boy in Tsing Yi who was delivering the message was indeed his own clerk.
"What did you say? Say it again!"
"In the palace, someone from the palace came to report to the house, saying that the strategy the young master wrote for the literary test was excellent. He got second place in the literary test, and he was only one step away from the golden inkstone! "
"Seriously?" Zhang Xun swallowed, pinched Li Zhufeng hard, and said, "Old Li, does it hurt?"
Li Zhufeng was a little confused. He looked at him and cursed angrily: "I'm not made of iron. How can it not hurt if you pinch me like this?"
"Looks like it's not a daydream, it's real!"
He, Zhang Xun, stood up!
