Devil’s Advent

Chapter 684 No

After Xiao Qi finished speaking,

The second floor of the roast duck restaurant was silent for a moment.

present,

One counts as one, and none is a fool;

If you say that the generals who struggled out of the mountains of corpses and seas of blood do not understand politics or human relationships, it is obviously a bit unrealistic.

One, a little bit like Tian Wujing?

Second, the accumulation of the Zhenbeihou Mansion for a hundred years, the foundation bred, this kind of educational inheritance, to be honest, is not much different from the emperor's house, the Zhenbeihou Mansion, in Beifeng County, is the local emperor.

Several princes present,

The prince has always been very steady, steadily being knocked down to the ground by Ji Laoliu again and again, and then steadily waiting to be pulled up by his own father.

Needless to say, Ji Laoliu, without him personally getting off, he would have become Dayan's Situ Lei long ago, and he once mocked Situ Lei for leaving those two elder brothers behind.

It is to give up the struggle for the throne and formally withdraw from the fourth prince who seized the heir. To be honest, it is a kind of wisdom to be able to extinguish that little flame on your own initiative at this time;

The other two,

One is Eunuch Wei, an old man in the palace, with the seal of the supervisor of ceremonies, he has long since become a human being;

One is Lord Zhenghou.

Zheng Houye dared not to bring Gou Moli and the blind man to Beijing this time, which in itself was a kind of confidence in his political ability.

so,

everyone present,

No one would naively think that,

Little Qiji Chengsu's speech,

It's really just a child's timid child's words.

He didn't say he wanted to fight for that position,

He pretended that he was just speaking in order,

He said he had no idea,

He said he listened to everyone,

Listen to the prince's brother, listen to Xiaoliu brother, listen to the princes, listen to the princes, listen to everyone.

By implication,

It is he who sits on the dragon chair is a mascot.

If other people want to compete for this position, they will fight to the death. If I sit in that position, everyone can stand next to me and make suggestions.

I don't know if someone taught him, or if he really thought of it himself.

What I think is not impossible, after all, how could a child of the Tian family really have such a simple, honest and cute stupefaction?

You know, growing up in the palace, a eunuch, a court lady, a look, a gust of wind can alert people;

Not to mention the general quality of Yanhuang's sons.

perhaps,

In Xiao Qi's heart,

Some things have long since changed.

On that night, the third brother was released from the Huxin Pavilion, and he took the fruit drink and joined the brothers to clean up the dust for the third brother;

Then to the banquet,

The third brother died tragically at the hands of the assassin.

Xiao Qi will never forget that scene in his life.

If there is an opportunity, it must be fought for.

Zheng Houye shook his head slightly in his heart, thinking of the kind of competition between Dorgon and Haoge that he talked about when he was drinking tea and chatting with the blind men, and in the end it was cheaper for Fulin;

Unexpectedly, similar dramas seem to have a tendency to be re-enacted in Dayan.

What the prince wants is to rule by doing nothing;

What Ji Lao Liu wants is to continue to centralize power and reintegrate the legacy of the Big Three, including Zheng Fan and his elder brother Ji Wujiang;

And Xiaoqi,

He didn't want to,

But what he represents itself is a way to shelve the controversy.

I'm still young,

I still have to grow up,

Even if I become the emperor, it is impossible for me to take charge of the government soon, and even if I do, it will be difficult to really grasp the power.

It is inevitable to be suspicious of the main country, and it is also inevitable that the contradictions will be covered up and postponed, but it has to be said that it is a feasible method.

The prince still knelt there with a calm expression;

Ji Chengjue turned his head and glanced at Xiao Qi who was kneeling behind him.

Xiao Qi was a little shy, but also looked at her sixth brother innocently.

They are all human beings,

Ji Laoliu naturally saw some detachment from his age group in Xiaoqi's eyes;

how to say,

At his age, Ji Lao Liu was also good at pretending to be innocent;

But the problem is that he is old now, and besides, he already has a large group of Liuye Party forces around him.

In comparison,

When he and the prince were facing each other, Xiao Qi, who was light in body, showed his advantage instead.

But Ji Laoliu didn't speak, turned around and continued to kneel.

how?

Emperor Yan asked.

Li Liangting pointed at Xiaoqi and smiled,

road;

I'm jealous.

What I envy is the quality of my son.

Tian Wujing didn't speak.

Yan Huang spread out his left hand and put it on the table,

Said to the two:

Okay, you guys have to give me an explanation.

Li Liangting shook his head and said: Your Majesty, after all, this is a matter of the Tian family. As for me, let's not get involved. Your Majesty, you can just choose as you see. Anyway, there will be peace in Dayan for the next thirty years.

Emperor Yan looked at Tian Wujing, and King Jingnan must make a statement;

Tian Wujing put down the teacup,

Opened the mouth and said:

It doesn't matter whether to govern by doing nothing, or to forge ahead, it doesn't matter, whether it is broken or erected, what will happen in the end, and who will really know what will happen in the future.

Cheng Su, is too young to keep the scene.

Li Liangting kicked the ball back,

But Tian Wujing rejected Xiaoqi in front of everyone.

Xiao Qi's breathing stagnated, his face turned red, and he clenched his small fists, but he didn't dare to make a sound, so he could only lower his head.

How much he wished that King Jingnan could be like King Zhenbei, and give it back after a haha. In this way, he felt that he still had great hope.

Mirrorless, which one do you think is more suitable?

Emperor Yan asked specifically.

In fact, the three of you here may not speak, but once you speak, it is impossible to ignore it.

For Yanhuang,

Tian Wujing's words were even heavier than Li Liangting's to a certain extent.

Because it's me at this time, I have to appease him first.

Tian Wujing shook his head,

road:

Your Majesty, I just think that the Seventh Prince is not suitable;

I, the soldiers of the Great Yan, overcame the thorns and thorns, and stained the battlefield with blood. I have just created the current territory of the Great Yan, such a mighty army;

No matter what you do, you won't be able to learn how to be a man.

Now he suddenly played a trick of mastering Shaoguoyi.

What's the point of going back and forth?

Ji Chengsu had already put his head on the floor, and he knew that he was almost useless.

King Jingnan has already spoken so clearly, unless his father uses thunderous means to forcibly take down King Jingnan at this time, and at the same time eliminate the influence of King Jingnan in the army, for example, this Marquis of Pingxi;

otherwise,

He, Ji Chengsu, had no chance with that dragon chair.

In fact, Ji Chengsu also knew that it is impossible for the current father to do such a thing, one is because he is unwilling, and the other is... Maybe he can't do it either.

The royal father returned to the palace this time with a grand style, but he never intervened in the court, which meant that the royal father wanted to make a smooth transition of Dayan's situation.

Although the father, who once stepped into the door, is still the true supreme of Dayan, he no longer has the grandeur and youth that he had when the horse stepped into the door.

And Lord Zheng Hou, who lowered his head over there and was studying the mysteries of the texture of the table,

I also felt a little surprised in my heart.

Lao Tian would reject Xiao Qi in such a straightforward way, which is really not in line with Lao Tian's usual style.

Earlier, he was drinking tea and talking casually.

In fact, from the perspective of Lord Zheng Hou, the best situation for Xiao Qi to be in the top position is that the second prince and the sixth prince will help govern the country together as auxiliary princes.

The two will inevitably continue to fight against each other, and it is impossible to assist their little brother intimately.

Because at this point, it is no longer a matter between the two of them. You must know that behind each of them, there is a group of forces supporting them.

Just like Dorgon later brought down Hauge by means and made the emperor's uncle regent, if it wasn't because Dorgon had no son himself, he might have usurped it long ago.

Raising the level a bit further, this is no longer a struggle between two factions, it can rise to a collision of two ideas of governing the country.

Governing by doing nothing and continuing to centralize power are inherently contradictory, and naturally there is no room for integration.

And once the center is split, unable to make a unified voice, life will not be too comfortable for the feudal town.

A cohesive center will inevitably cut down the vassals to collect local power, while a divided center needs to win over the vassals and towns to support itself.

What Xiao Qi said,

Although it made Zheng Houye sigh with emotion that he is the son of Emperor Yan, it is true that none of them should be underestimated;

But at the same time,

What's on my mind is,

Well,

To me, Xiaoqi is in the top position, which is very good.

If the blind man and Gou Moli knew about this, they would be very happy too.

However, it was rejected by Lao Tian.

Next,

Li Liangting answered:

Isn't it? I'm too petty to be a little angry. If I choose a small doll to go up, I can only make Ganchu and them laugh at our big swallow. We old swallows, it's good to have a good face, isn't it?

What a King of Zhenbei,

This was after King Jingnan clearly expressed his attitude,

He took the initiative to pick up the ball he had kicked back earlier, and threw it at the Seventh Prince's face at the same time.

With the status of King Zhenbei, it is impossible to be such a fool.

so,

The only explanation is that,

Previously, he was deliberately waiting for King Jingnan to speak, and then, taking advantage of the situation, he made an assist.

It's the two princes together, which means that the possibility of Xiaoqi's ascendance is lost.

This is very interesting.

to be honest,

The three of them sit here,

Whoever is the country has nothing to do with the princes. This is also the most helpless point of the little six sons before. His power is actually much stronger than that of the prince, and his layout is more meticulous and in-depth;

But in front of these few people, he knew that even if his power and layout were really mobilized, it would be of no avail.

Just like the painstaking efforts of the King Regent of the Chu Kingdom, he still couldn't stand King Jingnan's thousand-mile attack and directly burned your Yingdu.

Emperor Yan asked, who do you like as the country's capital.

King Jingnan and King Zhenbei were both casual at first, but then, Xiao Qi was rejected.

It is equivalent to a move of chess. If you are asked to play, you have taken half a step, which is not in accordance with the rules. Then, you can only clean up the chessboard and start over.

Emperor Yan was not angry, to be exact, this emperor, at this time, he was the strongest and at the same time the weakest.

He needs the existence of this iron triangle more than ever, because he can no longer stand the toss.

In that case, it's business as usual.

Emperor Yan said such a sentence.

The crown prince continued to maintain his calm, supervised the country for so long, nothing else, the kung fu of nourishing qi has reached perfection.

Everything is business as usual, which means that the prince is the prince. Since he is allowed to be the prince, he will definitely ascend the throne in the future;

However, combined with the scene that just happened in this roast duck restaurant today, there is a high probability that it has another meaning.

That is,

put it aside

You two, continue to seize the throne.

In short,

The decision of the country has not been clarified like cutting melons and vegetables as imagined.

Even if you choose a very casual place, it is not something you can go to casually after all.

Tomorrow, Wujiang will be back, let's hold a banquet in the palace.

King Jingnan and King Zhenbei left the table together,

The minister obeys the order.

Chengsu, help me back to the palace.

Yes, father.

With red eyes, Ji Chengsu got up, trotted over, and helped his father go downstairs.

Immediately afterwards,

The prince stood up staggeringly, walked in front of the two princes, saluted in turn, and then went downstairs.

The fourth son of the emperor, Ji Chengfeng, fell directly on the ground, panting heavily.

Ji Chengjue stretched out his hands towards Zheng Fan,

My legs are numb, come on, give me a hand.

It's not a fake,

In the past, when he needed to kneel for a long time, Ji Chengjue would tie cushions on his knees, but today, he was busy cooking roast duck in the back kitchen, and he was already exhausted. Well, now I suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and my body's exhaustion and numbness immediately hit.

Is your leg numb?

right.

Lord Zheng Hou bent down, and slapped Ji Chengjue's thighs hard with both hands a few times.

hiss………

Ji Laoliu immediately showed an extremely sore expression.

You can, you cut the feudal clan, you cut it.

The surname Zheng, you avenge yourself!

Hey, I really like this tune, why should I hold the job of the public if I don't want to hold a personal grudge?

Ji Chengjue slowly got up.

At this moment, King Jingnan and King Zhenbei over there also came down the stairs.

The two princes came to the door of the roast duck restaurant on the first floor,

King Zhenbei stretched his waist first,

Looking at the sunset in the sky,

Said with emotion:

The sunset is so beautiful.

Tian Wujing didn't speak.

King Zhenbei laughed again:

He thinks beautifully.

...

On the second floor, facing the window, the Juggernaut flew back and nodded at the same time, indicating that all the masters outside had withdrawn.

Zheng Fan looked at Ji Chengjue and said:

Your move is too risky.

You don't even look at how far I've been pushed. Ji Chengjue's face darkened.

Tell me, who taught Xiaoqi this?

After the father returned to the palace, he hadn't summoned his foreign ministers yet, and the prince was not allowed to enter the palace to pay his respects. And Xiao Qi, who lives in the palace, what do you think?

Things seem to be getting more and more interesting.

At this moment, whoever dares to teach Xiaoqi how to speak, he must have the guts. Ji Chengjue added.

But, it's okay, it's still rejected.

It's true that I was rejected, but to be honest, when Xiao Qi said this, I really thought I was about to be turned over by my youngest brother.

surnamed Zheng,

Do you want Xiao Qi to sit in that position the most?

Yes. Zheng Houye was very frank.

What's the point of this? Playing chess with the stinky chess basket will become more and more boring. You should play chess with me. Wouldn't it be interesting for us to fight each other in the future?

Zheng Fan pointed at his face,

Looking at Ji Chengjue curiously,

road:

Ji Lao Liu?

Um?

Do you think I'm sick?

Not yet.

Yes, so why should I choose you?

Honestly, bro...

Well, don't give me this trick.

The two princes, and father, don't seem to be on the same side.

Ji Chengjue stretched out his hand, poured himself a cup of tea, and continued:

Why do I feel that the two princes want to watch a play? I just want to watch the prince and I fight to the death. I just want to watch our brothers fight each other.

And then? Zheng Fan looked at Ji Chengjue with a smile, You, Ji Lao Liu, want to show off your style and give up your position?

Ji Chengjue shook his head, and said, I won't be the crippled hand.

finished speaking,

Ji Chengjue put the teacup back on the table.

At this time,

Zheng Fan picked up another teacup and put it on top of Ji Chengjue's.

Ji Chengjue looked at Zheng Fan in surprise, and said in astonishment, Are you crazy?

Zheng Fan shook his head slightly.

No, you must be crazy. This doesn't look like your style. This is the chessboard of Father and the others.

Zheng Fan took a deep breath,

Spit it out again slowly,

road:

They do theirs, we do ours.

...

inside the carriage;

Ji Chengsu sat on the side in a dignified manner. Opposite him, Yan Huang, who was covered with a blanket, lay there with his eyes closed.

Xiao Qi choked up from time to time, but he didn't dare to make his voice louder.

Looking at his father's face,

What he felt was not at ease, but a kind of sincere fear.

last night,

The royal father called himself to his side.

He said he was old.

Immediately, he knelt down and said, father and emperor will last forever, long live long live long live.

He said that in this world, no one can live forever.

He also said,

later,

You have to listen to your brothers and listen to everyone.

so,

It was only today that Ji Chengsu dared to be on the second floor of the roast duck restaurant. He mustered up his courage and made his own voice.

but,

He disappointed his father.

at the same time,

A wave of anger began to rise from the bottom of his heart.

Children of this age already have the concept of my family and your family, not to mention Dayan's Seventh Prince, who is born with precocious wisdom.

This is obviously a matter of my Ji family,

Why should it be up to the two of you to say no!

The young prince was smart, but he was young after all, and he just passed by the most enamored chair in the world.

Yanhuang slowly opened his eyes at this time,

Looking at the little boy sitting there,

corner of mouth,

With a smile.

When he noticed his father's gaze, Ji Chengsu immediately got up and knelt down in front of his father.

My son, my son has disappointed my father.

From Ji Chengsu's point of view, his father deliberately wanted to give him a push and put him in the top position.

own father,

It is to love oneself.
