Afternoon.
The emperor's oral instructions were transmitted to various palaces, and the emperor conferred kingships and titles on the three princes except the prince.
After the Lantern Festival, when hundreds of officials go to court, they will formally pass on the imperial edict and announce it to the world.
The second prince, Chu Chengyao, was named King of Jin and his fiefdom was in Zhangzhou.
The third prince, Chu Chengye, was named King of Qin and his fiefdom was in Pingzhou.
The fourth prince Chu Chengping was granted the title of King of Qi, and his fiefdom was in Jizhou.
From the date of canonization, you can take over the jurisdiction of the fief.
During the emperor's reign, the prince lived in Kyoto.
When the new emperor ascends the throne, he can voluntarily live in Kyoto for a long time, or he can invite himself to the fiefdom.
After receiving the news, Chu Chengye couldn't sit still at first, and stood up by slamming the table in Concubine Xian's palace:
"My uncle is in Zhangzhou. Why did my father want to put my fiefdom in Pingzhou?! Not only is it close to Mobei and Yeliang, it is also the territory of the Tianji Sect. If there is any change between me and my uncle, the Tianji Sect will know about it. Father What does the emperor mean by this? Are you going to leave me alone and helpless, and then use Tianji Sect to constrain me?"
Concubine Xian: "Just because your uncle, who holds military power, is in Zhangzhou, His Majesty cannot let you go to Zhangzhou. Pingzhou is not only close to Tianji Gate, but also adjacent to the Gu family's Dingbei Army. Your Majesty has carefully considered this. of."
Chu Chengye said bitterly: "Father is just partial, guarding me is like guarding against thieves, why don't you see him guarding the prince!"
Facing her irritable son, Concubine Xian looked helpless:
"Why are you anxious? It's not just you that your father is guarding. Chu Chengyao's fiefdom is within the jurisdiction of your uncle, so he will only be more depressed than you."
Seeing Chu Chengye standing in the hall sulking, Concubine Xian suppressed her temper and softened her tone:
"Now that the big thing has not been accomplished and the success or failure is not yet known, how can you be sure that you will definitely go to the fief? No matter where the fief is, it is prepared for the prince, and the emperor has no use for it."
When Chu Chengye heard this, his anger dissipated a lot, and he became even more determined to win the position:
"Succeed as king or lose as bandit, no matter what means, I will definitely fight for it."
Concubine Xian: "Since you are determined, you should restrain your temper and learn more from Chu Chengyao."
Chu Chengye snorted coldly: "He is just a sinister villain who hides behind others. His father actually gave him the title of King of Jin, and Yari meant to be the crown prince. How could he, Chu Chengyao, be so virtuous as to get this title!"
Concubine Xian: "This is your Majesty's brilliance. Giving him a great reputation will naturally cause dissatisfaction. At that time, he will no longer be able to hide behind others and will have to fight. Then he will form a three-legged power with you and the prince to balance the situation." The court situation. But compared to you and the prince, he is still more powerful. If my prediction is good, your majesty will give him more strength."
Ming Fei's place.
Concubine Ming and Chu Chengping were chatting about domestic matters. When they got the news, mother and son took it calmly.
Chu Chengping: "It seems that my father has taken good care of me."
Concubine Ming: "First of all, for the sake of your uncle and grandpa's face, he shouldn't go too far thinking about the old relationship. Secondly, you have no interest in that position. Whenever your father delegates power, you avoid it. You If you have no intention of fighting, your father will naturally not push you into party struggle."
Chu Chengping smiled and said: "How wonderful it is now. Jizhou is rich in grain production. Not only is it rich, it is also adjacent to the surrounding five continents, and it is close to Kyoto. It is a good place."
Concubine Ming raised her hand and poked Chu Chengping's head:
"You! Just give me peace of mind. Although Jizhou is rich, it is too close to Kyoto. If there is any disturbance, it will be affected. It's better to go somewhere else."
