Could it be that Your Majesty is planning to appoint His Highness the Second Prince as the Crown Prince?
Within a short period of time, apart from this idea, the civil and military officials in the palace could not think of any other reasons.
The civil and military officials secretly thought about this, and secretly shifted their gaze from Liu Chengzhi to Liu Feifei, Liu Chengfeng, Xiao Kaitai, Liu Chengqian, Liu Zhenghao and their brothers and sisters.
I want to observe how these princes and princesses will react after hearing His Majesty's instructions.
However, when the eyes of the civil and military officials fell on Liu Feifei, Liu Chengfeng, Xiao Kaitai and their brothers and sisters, they saw that it was indeed the brothers and sisters who were talking, laughing and discussing in soft words. Something interesting.
As if, as if he didn't care at all about the decision His Majesty just made.
Seeing the reactions of Liu Feifei, Liu Chengfeng, her brothers, sisters and others, all the officials were startled, and a trace of astonishment flashed in their eyes.
Why, how could this happen?
Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess, Her Royal Highness the Second Princess, Her Royal Highness the Eldest Prince, Her Royal Highness the Third Princess... Are their reactions too abnormal?
Could it be that they and others didn't care at all about His Majesty's two decisions just now?
Can't they guess what the two decisions His Majesty just made mean?
As the princesses are from a family of daughters, it is reasonable for them to react like this.
After all, if nothing unexpected happens, the position of Crown Prince and Crown Prince will most likely not fall to these sisters.
But His Highness the Eldest Prince, His Highness the Third Prince, His Highness the Fourth Prince and their brothers are all seven-foot tall men.
Their brothers are also one of the current princes and royal highnesses, which means that their brothers are also qualified to be appointed as princes and princes and become successors.
Have they never thought about competing for that position, that chair?
After the civil and military officials came to their senses one after another, the expressions deep in their eyes were different.
Many young and backward officials still had dull doubts in their eyes.
As for the old foxes who were important ministers in the court, their reactions were much more complicated.
For example, Xia Gongming, the first assistant in the cabinet, Cai Jun, the Rongwei Hou, Wei Yong, the second assistant, Tong Sansi, Du Chenghao, Song Yu and other elders from several dynasties, their eyes showed a faint look of joy.
The eldest prince, the third prince, and the fourth prince reacted this way, which means that these princes can view the position of the crown prince with a normal heart.
This means that in the future, it is very likely that the princes and their highnesses will not fight against each other and kill each other in order to fight for power.
This situation is nothing short of a great good thing for Dalong Celestial Dynasty.
After all, as veterans of several dynasties, these people are very aware of how terrifying it is for the princes and their highnesses to compete with each other for power.
Once a prince seizes the throne, it means that the current situation will be turbulent and the government will be unstable.
Above the temple, everyone is in danger, and there are gaps between colleagues.
The common people suffer innocently, war breaks out, and their lives are devastated.
Whenever a prince fights for power, it means that there will be a bloody storm in the court and in the world.
Let’s not talk about the distant past, let’s just talk about the exchange between the brothers, the late Emperor Wuzong and King Qing and King Shu more than ten years ago. This is the most vivid example.
For these veterans who have experienced the past events, although many years have passed, as long as they recall those past events, they are all vivid in their minds.
Now, the princes and their highnesses can live in harmony with each other and respect each other as brothers, friends and brothers. How can they, the old ministers, not be happy about it.
Xia Gongming gently twirled the Chao Hut in his hand and turned to look at Mr. Liu who was standing next to the stove. His old eyes were full of emotion.
Immediately, he muttered to himself.
"Your Majesty is lucky, the dragon is lucky. The world is lucky, all people are lucky!"
Liu Mingzhi seemed not to see the reaction of the civil and military officials in the palace. He rubbed his hands and turned them over on the stove for a while, then looked at his second son Liu Chengzhi standing beside him with a smile.
"Chengzhi."
"My son is here."
"Come back and take your seats."
"Yes, thank you father."
"Staff."
"Old minister is here."
"Besides these two things, do you have any other documents to file?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, I have lost my ability."
"Okay, then come back and take your seats."
"I obey, thank you very much, Your Majesty."
Liu Mingzhi glanced at the civil and military officials on both sides and asked loudly: "Is there any other dear friend who has a book to report?"
"Back to Your Majesty, my brother Wanyan Feixiong has something to report."
Young Master Liu raised his eyebrows and looked at Wanyan Feixiong, who rarely appeared in the court, with a smile.
"allow."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Wanyan Feixiong stood up and walked to Young Master Liu. He chuckled and took out two books from his sleeves.
"Your Majesty, regarding the five-year plan that Your Majesty mentioned to me back then, I already have..."
Young Master Liu heard Wanyan Feixiong's words and quickly raised his hand to signal before he could finish his words.
"etc."
Wanyan Feixiong's words stopped abruptly and he looked at his brother-in-law with a puzzled expression.
"His Majesty?"
Liu Mingzhi glanced sideways at the few books in Wanyan Feixiong's hand, then waved to Liu Song with a smile.
"Komatsu."
"yes."
"Flying Bear."
"Brother Chen is here."
"I will review these documents that you have prepared after I get back. You can give them to Liu Song first."
"Yes, my brother, I obey."
Wanyan Feixiong nodded and immediately handed the document in his hand to Liu Song.
"Brother Song, please."
"OK."
After Liu Song took the document, he silently stepped aside.
"Flying Bear."
"Brother Chen is here."
"Do you have any other paperwork to file?"
"Your Majesty, my brother is gone."
"Okay, go back and sit down."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
After Wanyan Feixiong took his seat, and just when Young Master Liu was about to speak, Xiao Chengzi hurriedly walked into the hall.
"I see you, Your Majesty."
Liu Mingzhi frowned slightly and looked at Xiao Chengzi with a chuckle.
"Forgive me."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Xiao Chengzi, are you ready?"
"The report to Your Majesty has been completed. I am just waiting for His Majesty's oral instructions."
Liu Mingzhi nodded slightly and casually put away his hands on top of the stove.
"Pass it on."
"yes."
Little Chengzi immediately trotted outside the palace door and gently shook the fly whisk in his hand.
"His Majesty dictates the banquet."
As soon as Xiao Chengzi finished speaking, a large group of palace maids and eunuchs lined up in two rows, each carrying a steaming tray and walked into the hall.
Young Master Liu walked to the exquisite carpet in the center of the hall and sat down cross-legged. He glanced at the civil and military officials on both sides with a smile.
"My lords and dear ministers, have you all had breakfast before you enter the palace to attend court?"
Hearing Young Master Liu's question, the civil and military officials were startled, and they all looked at the trays in the hands of many eunuchs and maids.
"Back to Your Majesty, I got up too late and didn't have breakfast."
"Your Majesty, my wife has prepared it for me a long time ago.
Had a satisfying breakfast.
Unfortunately, the old minister was in a hurry to enter the palace and attend court, but he didn't even get a bite to eat. "
"Your Majesty, my belly is empty."
Liu Mingzhi looked around at the civil and military officials in the palace, and casually rolled up the cuffs of his dragon robe.
"Are you sure you haven't had breakfast? Don't wait until later just to cater to my kindness.
If this is the case, it will be you who will suffer when the time comes. "
Hearing Young Master Liu's question again, the civil and military officials shook their heads without hesitation.
"Go back to Your Majesty, I'll be sure."
Young Master Liu nodded happily, raised his head and waved to the palace maids and eunuchs standing on both sides.
"Let's have a feast."
"Slave, I obey."
A large group of eunuchs and palace maids immediately walked towards the civil and military officials on both sides with the trays in their hands.
Little Chengzi took the tray from a young eunuch, walked slowly to Young Master Liu and stopped.
"Your Majesty, this is yours."
"Well, let it go."
Little Chengzi placed the tray in front of Young Master Liu, picked up the spare pair of kuaizi on the tray, and picked up a dumpling from the bowl.
Liu Dashan saw Xiao Chengzi's behavior and waved his hand casually.
"No need, there are so many people who want to harm me."
Little Chengzi nodded quickly, put the dumplings back into the bowl, and retreated to Liu Song with the kuaizi in her hand.
"Yes, yes, I obey."
Liu Mingzhi picked up the exquisite rice bowl with one hand and the kuaizi next to him with the other hand, then turned to look at the civil and military officials on both sides.
"My dear friends, today's meeting is the first meeting of the year.
Now that spring has just entered, the weather is still cold in the morning, and it is not very comfortable to be hungry.
Therefore, I am in charge of the food today.
However, I don’t know what your taste is, dear friends.
After thinking about it, I realized that the Lantern Festival had just passed yesterday, so I asked the imperial kitchen to prepare some dumplings and glutinous rice balls for us.
In addition, add a bowl of dumpling soup and a stack of pickles, after all, the original soup becomes the original food.
As for whether you like to eat it or not, that’s all. "
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Long live my emperor."
"Then let's move fast."
"Thank you for the banquet, Your Majesty."
"By the way, I would like to remind you that today's dumplings are stuffed with leeks and eggs. You must be careful after eating the dumplings so as not to infect the surrounding colleagues."
All the civil and military officials laughed heartily when they heard Mr. Liu's joking words.
"Hahahaha, thank you Your Majesty for reminding me, I will pay attention to it."
"Your Majesty, if you didn't tell me, I still wouldn't know.
Later, after I ate the leek and egg dumplings, I had to smoke this old thing, Lao Du. "
"Also, the pickles on your tray are the pickles that the Queen personally pickled for me.
You are not allowed to be left behind.
Otherwise, the queen will be unhappy when she finds out. "
"Your Majesty, if you say that, then I will only eat this plate of pickles."
"It's very true. Even if I don't eat, I dare to let down the queen's craftsmanship."
“Colleagues, this is not how flattering works.
If you only eat pickles made by the Empress herself, you won't be afraid of being caught.
However, I am different. My hometown is Sichuan. I grew up eating kimchi made by my parents themselves.
I don't like anything else but a bite of pickles. "
"Hey, Lao Wang, you are the old guy when it comes to being thick-skinned."
Liu Dashan saw all the civil and military officials
They were teasing each other and picked up a dumpling.
"Okay, let's go ahead and talk about business while we eat."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
After Liu Dashao ate four or five dumplings in one go, he turned sideways and looked at Liu Song and Xiao Chengzi who were standing behind him.
"Yanagatsu, little Seiko."
"The little one is here."
"The old slave is here."
"You two, stop standing around. Aren't there still a few bowls of dumplings and glutinous rice balls left? You two should sit down and eat together."
"Hey, thank you very much, Master."
"Old slave, thank you, Your Majesty."
Young Master Liu swallowed the dumplings in his mouth and casually waved the kuaizi in his hand.
"Go, go, have breakfast quickly, it won't taste good when it's cold."
"I understand, little one."
"Old slave, go now."
Young Master Liu took a sip of dumpling soup and looked at the civil and military officials on both sides with a smile.
"My dear friends, is there any other dear friend who has a book to write?
If you have the skills, you don’t need to get up, just reply directly. "
"Your Majesty, I have something to report from Honglu Temple."
"allow."
"Your Majesty, Haining Hou An Jianghe has not given any information to the court for nearly half a year..."
After listening to the reply from Honglu Temple Qing Wang He Zheng, Liu Mingzhidan smiled and picked up another small bowl of glutinous rice balls.
"I have my own plans regarding Haininghou'an Jianghe."
"Yes, I obey my orders."
After Wang Hezheng picked up the bowl again, Liu Mingzhi turned and looked at Xia Gongming, the chief minister of the cabinet.
"My lord."
"Old minister is here."
"Willow Pine."
"The little one is here."
Liu Mingzhi put down the bowl in his hand, reached out from his sleeve and took out the stack of rice paper, and handed it directly to Liu Song.
"Liu Song, send it to the boss."
"Yes, I will obey, little one."
Liu Song took the document, walked quickly to Xia Gongming, and handed over the stack of rice paper in his hand with a smile.
"Mr. Xia, please."
Xia Gongming took a stack of rice paper into his hand and looked at Young Master Liu with a puzzled expression.
"Your Majesty, what is this?"
"Your cabinet has carefully discussed some of the new decrees I have drafted.
If you have any questions, just send someone to ask me directly.
If there are no doubts, immediately send orders to officials of all sizes and state capitals to inform all people in the world. "
Xia Gongming's expression became serious, he lowered his head and glanced at the content on the first piece of rice paper, and then directly put the rice paper into his cuffs.
"Old minister, I understand."
"Continue eating."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Is there any other lover who has a copy that you would like to read?"
The civil and military officials in the palace looked at each other, and after confirming that no one was speaking, they put down their bowls and quickly picked up the Chao Hut beside them.
[In view of the general environment,
"Your Majesty, I have no intention of reporting."
"Okay, let's continue eating. After breakfast, we will go to court."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Flying Bear."
"Brother Chen is here."
"When you have time, go home and take a look. Your sister misses you."
"Hey, Brother Chen knows."
