Many people in the banquet hall started talking quietly.
"Now that the Yun family has just made great achievements, General Yun is serving as the general and the chief commander. It is the time for him to be favored. The eighth prince is asking the emperor to make him a king at this time. Isn't it a bit over the top?"
"The Yun family's army has returned to the hands of the Yun family. If the eighth prince wants to... I'm afraid..."
"The emperor is still in his prime, and the prince is also strong. Why can't it be his eighth prince's turn..."
The emperor's expression was a little incomprehensible: "My princes and grandsons of the Jin Dynasty were all crowned kings at the age of twelve. Tell me, why do you want to be crowned kings in advance?"
The eighth prince knelt on the ground and said: "Now that the Yun family has made great achievements, it has become the most prosperous family in the history of the Jin Dynasty. No other family can surpass it. The sons, ministers, mothers and concubines are from the Yun family. The Yun family's success means that When the mother and concubine are in power, it means that the sons and ministers are in power..."
The emperor looked at his son with some surprise.
He also thought that this son would say that after becoming the prince, he would share his worries for the government and do practical things for the people of Li. In short, he would definitely say these empty words.
But he never thought that Lao Ba would actually say everything that was on everyone's mind at this moment.
"The loyal ministers of the Yun family have been loyal to the imperial power and the court for generations, even if they hold heavy troops. However, the civil and military officials in the court may not think so." The eighth prince continued, "The crown prince and other royal brothers may not think that the Yun family , I think that I don’t have that kind of thoughts... Throughout thousands of years of history, every time the imperial power falls, the royal brothers will kill each other. I don’t want this to happen, and if it happens, I don’t want to face it with my own eyes... ...So, I request my father to make me a king, and I also ask my father to let me go to the land immediately and never return to the capital!"
The whole audience was shocked again.
After a prince or grandson becomes a king, he usually waits until the next emperor ascends the throne before being assigned to a fiefdom.
When a prince goes to a fiefdom, he will call it allotment, because the fiefdoms are usually in poor places in the southeast, northwest, and remote areas. It is really hard to suffer. Most princes and grandsons try their best not to go. Who would not think of going to the fiefdom in advance? That is not self-indulgence. Looking for trouble?
Moreover, the Eighth Prince actually said that he would never return to the capital.
Any prince may seize the throne, but the emperor cannot believe it if you just say that I have no idea about the throne.
These four words from the eighth prince could be said to have dispelled all the worries of the emperor, queen and prince.
"Stand up and speak." The emperor's eyes softened a little, "I ask you, is your request your own idea, or is it the intention of Concubine Yun?"
"It was a joint decision made by my son and my mother after discussion." The Eighth Prince replied, "My uncle also supports it."
Yun Silin stepped forward, cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, I will only be loyal to the Emperor and will never surround the prince with mercenaries to seize the throne. Only when the eighth prince stays away from the capital can the trust between the emperor and his ministers be maintained to the greatest extent. Therefore, I support the eighth prince. Decide."
"Okay!" The emperor stroked his hand, "Lao Ba attaches great importance to love and righteousness. Then I will give you the word righteousness and make you a righteous king. I will give you 800 soldiers and a thousand taels of gold. You can choose a day to go and seal it."
The Eighth Prince knelt down again: "My son, I thank my father. Long live my father! Long live my father!"
The queen's heart, which had always been high, finally calmed down.
To be honest, what she fears the most is the Yun family. If the Yun family surrounds Lao Ba, Dong Palace may not be her opponent.
After Lao Ba went and sealed the throne, the Yun family became a neutral faction and became less fearful.
She was still thinking about it. If she had known that she had vigorously promoted the marriage between Gongsun Ning and Yun Chu, wouldn't the Yun family have naturally joined the prince's boat?
Unfortunately, she didn't know that Yun Silin would come back alive at the time, and it was too late to regret it.
Fortunately, Lao San and Yun Chu are not compatible, and Yun Chu cannot marry Lao San...
At this moment, Chu Yi walked up to Yun Silin with a glass of wine and toasted him. Everyone would come to toast Yun Silin today, so he didn't seem to stand out.
Yun Silin patted him hard on the shoulder: "You are very capable, but it's a pity..."
He shook his head. If Chu'er had been married to King Pingxi five years ago, Chu'er would not have suffered so much unnecessary hardship.
"It's not a pity." Chu Yi lowered his voice, "Five years ago, I was nothing and had no power to compete with my father... Now is the best time, everything is just right."
"If you dare to make Chu'er suffer, I, Yun Silin, will not let you go even if I risk my life." Yun Silin drank all the wine in his glass, "Thanks to you, those two children can live. , Chu'er's biggest knot was solved."
Having said this, Yun Silin sighed.
Five years ago, when his daughter was discussing the marriage, he was not there and barely made it to the wedding banquet.
He was not there when his daughter was pregnant and had a baby.
When his daughter was wronged at the Xie family, he was not there.
When his daughter left with Xie Jingyu, he was not there either.
Now that his daughter Heping Xiwang is discussing marriage, he is still not around.
As a father, he really failed.
The Yun family's banquet lasted for most of the day. After the emperor and queen returned to the palace, the guests slowly dispersed.
Yun Silin had been dealing with things since he returned to Beijing, and now he could finally lie down on the couch and take a good rest, with Mrs. Lin leaning next to him.
The couple spends less time together and more time apart, so it's rare for them to lie together quietly.
Mrs. Lin sighed and said: "The Imperial Master said that Chu'er and Heping Xiwang are not compatible. What do you think we should do about this matter?"
"What's there to worry about?" Yun Silin smiled and said, "Don't worry, King Pingxi has a solution. The emperor will grant the marriage soon. Madam, why don't you spend time thinking about how much dowry to prepare."
Lin's attention immediately focused on the dowry: "When Chuer first married Xie Jingyu, he prepared a dowry of thirty thousand taels. This time he is marrying into the royal family, and the dowry must not be less than thirty thousand taels. Our Yun family It seems that the family has a big business, but in fact, it doesn't have much money at all. You, a father, are fighting outside all day long, and you don't care whether there is money at home. What do you want to use it for..."
Yun Silin: "..."
Why did it come to his head again?
He had no choice but to stand up and hugged Mrs. Lin, "Madam, calm down. This time I chopped off the head of the King of Nanyue, took over the Kingdom of Nanyue, put an end to the rebellion in Qicheng, and eliminated all the followers of the Queen Mother... Didn't the Emperor give many rewards? Is it okay to put it all in Chuer’s dowry?”
Mrs. Lin said angrily: "Even though you are a generous father, you can't give all of it to Chu'er. The child in Qianqian's belly is about to give birth, so I should leave some for the child."
As a parent, if the palms and backs of your hands are full of flesh and a bowl of water is flat, then your family can be harmonious and beautiful.
Five or six days passed in a row.
Ding Yiyuan once predicted that an earthquake would occur in the south in three days. Such a big disaster would be sent with smoke. That is to say, after the earthquake occurred, the news would be received in the capital within three days at most. No.
This day in court, this matter was brought up and made a separate agenda.
