Early morning, Dawu Empire, capital: Luo Qi.
Imperial Palace, Jiwu Hall.
"Your Majesty has a decree, declare it! The Sixth Prince Dongfang Yu enters the palace."
The sixth prince, Dongfang Yu, was kneeling on his knees and had been waiting outside the Jiwu Palace for a long time. Only a young eunuch was seen, taking small steps to read out the decree.
Dongfang Yu slowly raised his head, his expression was complicated, his eyes were empty, even! With some fear. He stood up hurriedly, not daring to hesitate for fear of offending the holy will and speaking to others.
Dongfang Yu walked up the hall, his head lowered, not daring to look at anyone; he seemed to be able to feel the uncontrollable ridicule and sarcasm on the faces of the imperial guards around him. yes! The sixth prince, who seemed to have a noble status, was not superior. He was a famous loser in Dawu, a prince who could be ridiculed by any nobles, soldiers, and even maids and eunuchs.
All cause and effect is because of his mother. His mother, Luo Shi, had a low status and was born as a concubine. However, she was beautiful, generous and kind. She was favored by the emperor and became his concubine, giving birth to him.
You know, how lucky is a concubine to be favored by the emperor and accepted as a concubine? But this is not the prelude to happiness. There is no power behind him. In a place like the harem, where intrigues are fought, he cannot escape the harm of the queen and other concubines... His mother, Luo Shi, finally couldn't stand such a torturous place. , took the initiative to move out of the harem and live comfortably in a dilapidated small courtyard.
In the Jiwu Hall, the officials stood in order from front to back according to their official positions. In ancient times, when ministers went to court to discuss matters, their official positions were naturally arranged first from left to right, with clear priorities.
Above the main hall, he sat upright with a solemn expression, wearing a nine-dragon yellow robe and a crown on his head, faintly emitting a frightening aura of a king. This man was none other than Emperor Xuanwu of Dawu, who was also Dongfang Yu's father.
Sitting on the small golden dragon chair at the lower left is naturally the prince, who is also his eldest brother.
Dongfang Yu rarely went to court, and when he saw many imperial ministers, his cowardice was particularly prominent. certainly! It is a fact that the sixth prince is a waste, everyone knows it. These ministers looked at Dongfang Yu with faint smiles on their faces.
"My son, Dongfang Yu, pays homage to my father, long live my father." Dongfang Yu knelt down awkwardly, his voice unusually soft, which made him more likely to be looked down upon.
"Yeah! Get back on your feet!" Dongfang Shuo nodded helplessly. Seeing Dongfang Yu's delicate appearance made him a little unhappy.
Dawu used force to rejuvenate the country and use force to rule the country. As the emperor of Dawu, Dongfang Shuo's own martial arts was not low. The other princes had practiced martial arts since they were young and their martial arts were also extraordinary. Dongfang Yu's soft and slender appearance struck Dongfang Shuo's heart.
"Thank you, Father!" Dongfang Yu thanked him and stood up.
And when he wanted to step aside, he found that there was no one around to leave a seat for him. The dignified Sixth Prince Dawu fell into such an embarrassing and embarrassing situation. Even Dongfang Yu himself was suddenly at a loss. People's hearts! This is the human heart? If the guess is correct, almost half of the ministers in the court have already surrendered to the prince.
now! The prince was very proud, and the smile on his face was extremely conspicuous.
"Sixth Prince, come here!"
Just when Dongfang Yu thought he was going to lose face, a low and refreshing voice sounded from behind him.
Is it General Liu Wenlong? This God of War who guards the Dawu Empire? He actually gave up the front row position to him. Dongfang Yu couldn't believe it. But he still bowed and cast a grateful look. Then he walked into the ranks.
"Hmph! Damn, you're lucky."
The prince's face was cold, and he was extremely angry. But he didn't dare to stand out, which would offend the great war god, and his position as prince would probably be at an end.
Liu Wenlong's deterrent power may be more useful than that of the emperor.
"Gentlemen, we are discussing this morning. We will only discuss one thing. The sixth prince has reached the age of sixteen. It is time for him to enfeoff land and become a king. Let's take a look and see where the sixth prince should be placed." Dongfang Shuo His eyes swept over the ministers coldly, as if to say, this is my son, no matter how bad things are, don't go too far in the matter of fiefdom.
The ministers glanced at each other and couldn't make a sound. The enfeoffment of lands and kings is a matter for the royal family. Ministers, they are just giving some suggestions!
If it were another prince, it would be okay, but for the sixth prince in front of him, it is really difficult to decide whether to be granted a land or a king. If he is granted a high title and he has no talent, he may offend the prince and other princes; Better off. I'm afraid only Sangong and other ministers can advise on this kind of matter.
"In my opinion, the Sixth Prince has a good place to go." When everyone was in trouble, Cai Zhong, the imperial censor, came out to give advice.
"Oh! Cai Qing's family might as well talk about it," Dongfang Shuo suddenly said. Cai Zhong is ranked among the three princes. Even as the emperor, he has to be given some face.
"Liangzhou, Qin, this is a good place. Although Qin is located at the border, it belongs to Yongliang, and! This place is only seventy miles away from the border. If the six princes can be sealed here, the people can be restored. , Secondly, it can inspire soldiers and resist foreigners, so! Isn't it killing two birds with one stone?" Cai Zhong said.
"Father, I think Doctor Cai is right. Since the sixth brother has been crowned king, this is the most suitable place." The prince also came over to agree.
But who doesn't know that the Liangzhou area is close to the border, especially the Qin region, which is almost a barrier to Liangzhou. It is often baptized by war and has serious population loss. This also makes the people of Qin region extremely tough and tough, almost like mountain bandits. Even if he goes, Dongfang Yu probably won't be able to suppress him.
This is a complete conspiracy!
And now! Dongfang Yu, who was speechless, took a step forward and said pleadingly: "Father, please send me to Qin!"
A loser is a loser, and he actually agreed to go to Qin. He catered to the prince and became a "good guy" for once.
Everyone thought Dongfang Yu was stupid, but Liu Wenlong's eyelids twitched, and he couldn't help but look deep. The land of Liangzhou is synonymous with barrenness, but little do they know that the Liangzhou Iron Cavalry is the best in the world. Liangzhou? It just lacks a truly talented leader.
"In that case! The Sixth Prince listens!"
"Confess the Sixth Prince Dongfang Yu as the King of Qin and grant him the land of Qin. Let's set off in three days!"
"Thank you, Father."
Dongfang Yu knelt down and then raised his head. The weakness in his eyes before had long since dissipated without a trace. What was replaced was a kind of stubbornness, relief, and sharpness.
The work is done, and with a decree, the title of king has become a fact. The humiliation of more than ten years will disappear without a trace the moment he enters Qin.
Only General Liu Wenlong noticed all these changes.
