Sima Lang bit the bullet and continued: "The Great Prince Sun Sheng is both His Majesty's direct son and His Majesty's eldest son. As the direct son, it is only natural for him to inherit His Majesty's position. This is the law of etiquette, so many ministers in the court will support him. He is the most Someone who has the potential to become the crown prince of the Eastern Palace!"

"Where's Sun Dong?"

"Marquis of Nanling?" Sima Lang thought for a while, and said: "I have met him several times, this person misses His Majesty very much, I can't see through it!"

"Why do you say that?"

"Feel!"

Sima Lang said: "He is as gentle as jade, and he is well-read in poetry and books. He is knowledgeable and eloquent. He works in the imperial court. He seems to have worked in the six departments of the imperial court, the Ministry of Households, the Ministry of Officials, and the Ministry of Punishment. He seems to be very popular. Seeing his smile, I always think of His Majesty's smile, exactly the same!"

"Hahaha!"

Sun Quan laughed: "Let me put it this way, I seem to remember one thing. Sun Sheng, Sun Han, Sun Dong, and Sun Shao all grew up in the palace. I taught them when they were young. A smile is a person's smile." Only when you smile can you see others cry, so you must keep smiling at all times, but Sun Dong seems to have heard this sentence!"

Sima Lang trembled all over when he heard the words, his eyes scrutinized Sun Quan's expression, trying to see something.

"Boda, why are you looking at me like that?" Sun Quan asked.

"Your Majesty's mind is on my mind!" Sima Lang replied calmly.

"Have you figured out anything?" Sun Quan shrugged and said indifferently.

"I'm so weak that it's hard to understand what your Majesty is thinking!" Sima Lang shook his head.

"Better not to understand!"

The corner of Sun Quan's mouth curled up into an evil smile: "If you understand everything, you may not be able to keep your head!"

"Your Majesty's lesson is, I will remember your Majesty's words!"

Although Sima Lang knew that Sun Quan would not punish him like this, he still broke out in a cold sweat.

"Pass my order!"

"exist!"

"August, the imperial court council, establish a crown prince, and decide the crown prince!" Sun Quan's voice was calm, but it was so deep that one could not feel what he was thinking.

"I obey my orders!"

Sima Lang immediately went to deliver the order.

……

The imperial decree from Jiaofang Hall soon spread throughout the court.

"August?"

"It's too hasty!"

"I thought it should be delayed until the end of the year!"

"This is embarrassing for us, who should we support to live in the East Palace!"

Above the imperial court, whether it is the cabinet or the military aircraft department, it seems that they are starting to move a little bit.

……

The mansion of Duke Beijing.

Sun Shao was more stable than before. He sat cross-legged and looked at Zhou Yu who was sitting next to him, with a hint of resignation on his expression.

"Uncle, is there no other way?"

"Sheng Yuan, it's not that uncle doesn't want to help you, but in today's imperial court, the Sun and Zhou factions have long since disappeared. With the power of uncle alone, it is difficult to keep you in power!"

Zhou Yu shook his head, fixed his eyes on this young man who resembled the little overlord of Jiangdong in the past, and said, "Instead of doing meaningless things, it's better to take a step back!"

"But I'm not reconciled!"

"When your father was defeated and died, how could I be reconciled, but I know that once I do it, I will pay the entire lives of Duke Zhou and Duke Jiang. One must know how to advance and retreat. Back then, you were willing to step down from the position of crown prince." , is to save your life, you give up today, or to save your life!"

Zhou Yu's calm voice destroyed Sun Shao's unwillingness.

He knew that what Zhou Yu said was right. His father, Sun Ce, was a hurdle he couldn't get past. Sun Quan didn't mind it, but did the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty mind? When Sun Ce captured Jinling City and forcibly ascended to the throne, he killed many people. There are countless people who hate him in the court.

Chao Zhongwu, how could it be possible to send the son of a rebellious minister who plotted against the throne to the position of the crown prince's east palace.

This is also the reason why he insisted on resigning from the position of prince.

Only in this way can he save his life.

"Then what should I do now?" Sun Shao asked Zhou Yu.

"Since you can't take the position, you have two choices, withdraw from the stage of the imperial court with a high profile, and after you completely inherit the title of Duke Jiang, you will become a Duke of Xiaoyao in the future!"

"What about the second option?"

"If you are not reconciled, you can only stand in line. If you stand right, you will naturally have a bright future in the court. If you choose wrong, your future will be rough. Few people are willing to offend the prince. After all, in the future, if the prince Ascend to the throne, who can guarantee that he will not settle accounts after the fall!"

Zhou Yu said: "Sheng Yuan, you have grown up, you have some choices, you should choose by yourself!"

"Stand in line?"

A gleam flashed across Sun Shao's eyes.

He never thought of just being an ordinary nobleman who only knows how to enjoy himself, so he didn't go back to the first choice at all, but even if it was the second choice, he still hesitated.

Standing in line is a skill, one step to heaven, one step to hell, how should he stand in line!

"Uncle, who do you think Sun Sheng, Sun Han, or Sun Dong has a better chance of winning?" Sun Shao asked Zhou Yu for advice.

"They all grew up with you, you should know them better than me!" Zhou Yu seemed to have anticipated Sun Shao's decision, he thought for a while, and said in a deep voice.

"Suddenly I miss the days in the palace. Although I am a proton, the emperor's uncle has never treated me badly. They have Yuanbaopingan, and I have it. He also called me very carefully. He taught me a lot of truths, and also taught me How can I get a foothold in the court!"

"Sheng Yuan, people have to grow up!"

"When we grow up, we will become enemies!" Sun Shaodao: "We often caused troubles in the palace back then. Yuan Bao and I were the scourges in the palace. Everyone was afraid of us. Ping An was our follower. Only Sun Dong seemed to be the worst It's inconspicuous, but every time he is silently doing our aftermath, and he always has a way to let us get through every punishment. At that time, our relationship was really good, but..."

This is the tragedy of the royal family.

"Sun Han is not a problem. He is young and has a shallow background, and he gave up winning the heir in the early years, so the courtiers will not trust him very much. The most important thing is that he is neither a heir nor an elder. It is not that there is nothing that can make those pedantic Ministers of Confucian background agree!"

Zhou Yu still made a point or two: "What you need to consider is Sun Sheng and Sun Dong. Sun Sheng already has a great reputation. As the first successor of Wu, many ministers trust him. As for Sun Sheng Dong, Gongsun Fu of Montenegro suddenly defected to support him, allowing him to get the full support of the clan's mansion, and it is not unreasonable to be on par with Sun Sheng. Sheng Ming, the courtiers may not be willing to break the rules, but he has been able to compete with His Majesty's two biological sons without losing the wind in the end, one can imagine his ability!"

"I need to think about this!"
