Chapter 1115 The Qing Dynasty Didn't Revolving Around Your Nian Family
Before the 30th pen of the New Year's Eve, the fourth master summoned the princes and ministers to discuss this matter in the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
In fact, long before he went to Yongshou Palace, he had a candidate in his heart.
After asking the queen, his mind has not changed.
After a few days of thinking, I came up with a surefire solution.
Moreover, in order not to let others think that the Queen is in the way.
He postponed the announcement until the end of the year.
At this moment, he is sitting on the gold-painted and carved dragon wooden chair at the top.
The five-clawed golden dragon on the dragon robe made the domineering him look dignified and majestic.
He looked down at the officials and said majesticly: "I have already reached a conclusion about the establishment of the reserve, and I want to discuss it with you."
As soon as this remark came out, the officials who had been urging Fourth Master showed joy.
But Nian Gengyao was startled, and hurried forward and said: "Your Majesty, my brothers are still young, so it would be too early to establish a reserve right now."
"Why don't you tell me when it's better to establish a reserve." Fourth Master said flatly.
Although his tone was indifferent, it gave people the meaning of "I won't say anything, you can say it".
Nian Gengyao's temperament is reckless, but he is not stupid.
After hearing the sharpness in Fourth Master's words, he backed away embarrassingly, and said flexibly, "Your Majesty is wise, your decision must be right. I'm just a slave, how can I understand this."
Seeing this, some who couldn't get used to Nian Gengyao cast a contemptuous look at him.
Seeing that Nian Gengyao was subdued, the fourth master continued: "As for the crown prince, I already have a clear candidate in my heart. But in order to prevent the crown prince from being exposed early and becoming a target of public criticism, I plan to write down the heir to the throne and put it in the Qianqing Palace to "be upright and bright." "After the plaque, the private storage is established."
For a while, civil and military officials were in an uproar.
Originally, I wanted to know who the prince was, so I could hold my thigh in advance.
Now that the secret reserve is established, it has nothing to do with them.
After co-authoring and waiting for them for so long, I have no direction or purpose at all.
As a result, the officials were suddenly divided into two factions.
On the one hand, there are voices of approval.
"Your majesty, I think that your method is very good. This way the foundation of the country has been established, people's hearts are bound, and there will be no turmoil."
"Yes, in this way, it is no different from the public establishment of the crown prince, but because there is no formal ceremony for the establishment of the crown prince, everyone does not know who it is, which avoids the premature division of the imperial power and the situation of forming a party for personal gain."
"The emperor is wise, even if he finds out that the crown prince is not suitable, even if he changes at any time, it will not have much impact on the court."
"The slaves also thought that this method of setting up a heir is good. This way, the choice of heirs is strong. There is no restriction on the heirs and concubines, and it also means that the emperor can be elected as the virtuous. It's better, it can better protect the future prince."
Of course, there is another point that they dare not say.
That is to establish a secret reserve, and there will be no conflict between the emperor and the prince.
Neither the prince nor the officials knew who it was, and they had no one to form a party with, let alone attack.
There will be no premature formation of cliques for selfish interests, and the situation of royal family fratricide.
Didn't Emperor Kangxi and the first prince clash because one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers?
At the same time, the prince and crown prince can still be allowed to participate in politics, without losing the tradition of Manchuria.
Moreover, even if it is found that the crown prince is not suitable, if he chooses again, the court will not suffer heavy losses and excessive resistance because the officials assist the crown prince too early.
Because at that time, the crown prince's party feathers were already full.
But the secret reserve is different, no one knows, and you can change it if you want.
This not only establishes the reserve, but also avoids the disadvantages of establishing the reserve early.
Seeing that most of the people agreed, fourth master nodded slightly, feeling a little relieved.
He just learned the lesson of Huang Kao, and he didn't want the emperor's heirs to follow the old path of himself and his brothers.
Since he was a teenager, he has been used to seeing his brothers fight openly and secretly, and he knows the harm and suffers from it.
Since he ascended the throne, he has also been able to appreciate the harm to the imperial power by exposing the prince to the world early.
So these days, he combined his own ideas with his ancestor's method of establishing a reserve.
The Lichu matter cannot be avoided.
There are pros and cons to standing or not.
It is also not acceptable to copy the patriarchal system.
Only secret storage is the best and most compromise method.
In this way, no one including the prince knows who the prince is, only he knows.
However, no matter how good the method is, it is impossible to satisfy everyone.
In addition to these people who agree, there are still some people who hold opposing views.
"Your Majesty, this servant thinks this method is not feasible. You don't even know the future prince, so how can you assist the prince?"
"Establishing the Chu is to let everyone know that the Chu Jun will be cultivated as soon as possible. Otherwise, in the end, the Chu Jun is not good enough, and it will be a danger to the Qing Dynasty."
Hearing the voice of opposition, Nian Gengyao was overjoyed.
He finally didn't have to fight the emperor alone.
He held his lips, and joined the opposing faction, "Your Majesty, I think that you should either not set up a crown prince, or if you want to set up a crown prince, it's better to tell everyone clearly."
Anyway, he didn't want the emperor to be the crown prince from the beginning.
His younger sister, Concubine Yu Gui, is still recuperating.
Either wait for Concubine Yugui to give birth to the emperor's heir before standing up.
Otherwise, the prince will announce it, and he wants to see who is cheaper!
Thinking of this, a gloomy light flashed in Nian Gengyao's eyes.
At this time, before the fourth master could speak, a rather noble speaker yelled at Nian Gengyao: "General Nian, don't think I don't know, you want to wait for Concubine Yugui to give birth to an heir before making a crown prince."
"When did I say that?" Nian Gengyao denied it.
But the other party said relentlessly: "But you don't even think about it. With Concubine Yu's body, I'm afraid she has been tossing badly in the past few years. Whether she can get pregnant is a problem. Not to mention that she lost three emperors in a row. Heir, even if she is conceived, will she be able to give birth, and will she be able to support her?"
Nian Gengyao's mind was punctured, and his sister was belittled like this, so he was so angry that his eyes gleamed with anger.
He raised his foot and walked towards the speaker, with the look of "No one will stop me, if I don't kill him here today, he won't be named Nian".
But this is the imperial court, those officials must have conspicuously stopped him.
Nian Gengyao was furious.
However, the speaker is very noble and not afraid of trouble at all.
Unexpectedly, he was not afraid of death and said contemptuously at Nian Gengyao: "If your Nian family doesn't give birth to an emperor's heir, the emperor's heir will never set up a heir. General Nian, I advise you that the Qing Dynasty is not around your Nian If you transfer from home, since you can’t do it yourself, give the opportunity to someone else, and see someone else’s order.”
These officials are not afraid of death.
Even if you put a knife on his neck, what you should say is to risk your life to remonstrate.
They are not even afraid of the emperor, and the queen dares to impeach.
