Demoting the Wife to a Concubine? The Reborn Legitimate Daughter Crippled his Entire Family.

Chapter 152 Overestimating one’s own capabilities



Probably because the war between Yong and Mobei was too unexpected by the Western Zhou Dynasty, and the news of Mobei's defeat made them uneasy, the Western Zhou Dynasty finally could no longer maintain calm and sent the first document.

After Ji Yucang read it, he unceremoniously rejected their request to send envoys to visit.

After the reply to the imperial edict, the border officers and soldiers would not let their people step into the Yong Kingdom, which undoubtedly made the Western Zhou Dynasty anxious.

Beginning in April, some rumors began to spread throughout the Yong Kingdom and spread to the capital.

The regent was destined to have no heirs, and he was not qualified to sit on the throne of Yong's emperor.

As soon as this rumor came out, the mentality of the civil and military officials in the court suddenly changed like a sharp turn. Ji Ling and Ji Mo, who had originally planned to give up, also had hope again.

The regent has no heir?

If he really has no heirs, what qualifications does he have to be emperor?

Officials headed by Yuan Rongbai, Minister of the Ministry of War, began to advise: "The country cannot be without a king for a day. Please ask the regent to re-establish an emperor and appoint a queen as soon as possible to spread the branches and heirs of the royal family!"

The two ministers from the Ministry of War knelt down and agreed.

The Minister of Household Affairs spoke solemnly: "I beg the regent to consider the country of Yong and establish a new emperor as early as possible to continue the lineage of descendants and the royal family!"

Continuing the royal bloodline?

This sentence just didn't hit Ji Yucang's face: "Prince Regent, if you can't give birth, don't delay other people's lives."

Ji Yucang was leaning on a large chair, looking at the kneeling ministers in the hall quietly, with a cold voice: "Are you so worried about the royal heir?"

"I am worried about the country and the people, and I would like to ask the regent to give me some advice!"

"I probably know what the ministers are worried about." Prime Minister Zuo said that Qingchen came out of the queue and bowed, then turned to look at the Minister of War without haste, with a gentle face and a gentle voice, "There have been some rumors circulating outside these days. The rumors about the Prince Regent are not good. I don't know whether you believe them to be true or you are the creators of the rumors. We haven't had time to find out the truth. But just because of a few rumors, you are as anxious as ants on a hot pot. , The truth is that I really doubt whether you have the determination to remain calm even if the mountain collapses in front of you.”

When several ministers heard this, they all shuddered in unison.

"Lord Zuo Xiang." Yuan Shangshu raised his head and looked at him, "It's not that Xiaguan and others have no determination, but that the heirs are related to the country of Yong, and Xiaguan thinks-"

"What Lord Shangshu thinks is not important." Yan Qingchen interrupted him with a smile, "Inheriting the country of Yong is a matter of the future. At least for now, it is the regent who stabilizes the situation and the regent who expands the territory. It is the regent who governs the world. Even if you give birth to an heir today, it will take twenty years to grow up. In twenty years time, the regent will be in his prime, and Lord Shangshu may have died. Don't you think you have to worry too much. ?”

The Minister of War's face turned pale. Did Zuo Xiang say that he would not live until that time?

"What Mr. Zuo Xiang said is true. Not to mention that the rumors are not credible, so what if they are true?" Qin Yumo said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone. "If there are no heirs, we can adopt one from the royal family in the future to serve as the regent and the prince." The princess's magnanimity and powerful abilities will definitely produce a qualified heir to the emperor. However, if she is anxious to have heirs and establishes an incompetent emperor at will, I am afraid that the Yong Dynasty's huge empire will be ruined before the heir can inherit the throne. , which one is more important, don’t you understand at all?”

"Yes, Nan Zhao is a lesson learned from the past." Mr. Song, the Minister of Rites, nodded slowly, "If the emperor hadn't been so jealous and insisted on getting rid of their eldest princess, how would they have ended up in the current situation where the country was ruined and the family was destroyed? Mr. Yuan may have thought that a country It will take fifty years or hundreds of years for the country to decline. In fact, if the king is ignorant and incompetent, it is very likely that the country will be destroyed in only three or two years. "

Yan Qingchen said calmly: "So I believe that the position of Emperor of Yong is only worthy of the Regent, and no one else is qualified at all."

The Minister of War's face was stiff.

"I second the proposal!"

"I also second the proposal!"

"I pray that the regent will be the emperor, promote the prestige of our Yong Kingdom, and make the Yong Kingdom prosperous and prosperous, and the times will last!"

Yan Qingchen looked at the ministers in the palace in silence, and felt that the time was ripe. He turned around, lifted his robe, and knelt on the ground: "I am willing to respect the regent as the emperor. Long live my emperor!"

"I wish to honor the regent as the emperor. Long live my emperor!"

Ji Yucang was sitting on the large king's chair with a stern look on his face. He stared coldly at the Minister of War in the main hall, only to see that his face was pale and his scalp was numb.

After a moment, he spoke slowly: "I have recently received a memorial. Someone has accused Yuan Shangshu of lining his own pockets and being corrupt. Prime Minister Zuo, you are responsible for investigating this matter. Take down Yuan Shangshu first."

Yuan Shangshu's expression changed: "I have been wronged! Regent, I have been wronged——"

"Whether you are wronged or not, you know it in your heart." Ji Yucang said indifferently, "When I asked Princess Pingyao to supervise the Ministry of War, I was indirectly reminding you. Unfortunately, you knew nothing about my reminder.

Yan Qingchen accepted the order: "I obey the order."

Ji Yucang looked down at the ministers in the palace with an expressionless face, and said in a cold and ruthless voice: "Who will sit on the throne of this country in the future? Everyone present should not have the right to decide. If I want to sit, I can sit on my own, and if I want others, let others. Sit down, I don’t want to see another smart person like Yuan Shangshu.”

There was silence in the main hall, and the ministers lowered their eyebrows and did not dare to speak.

"As for whether the king is destined to have no heirs, this is his own business and has nothing to do with you. Your duty is to do your job well and not worry about things that you shouldn't worry about." Ji Yucang stood up and said slowly Flushing his robe, a strong and cold pressure appeared around him, "Since ancient times, no dynasty has ever prospered forever, with descendants? How many years do you want it to last? A thousand years, or ten thousand years? Who has the ability to do so? If the Yong Kingdom can survive for a thousand years, if he can do it, I will support him to ascend to power now and let his bloodline last for thousands of years and last forever!"

Bang bang bang.

All civil and military officials in the court knelt down, bowed their heads and said nothing, but their faces turned pale, not like they were acting.

"As a member of the royal family, I am too lazy to worry about this. How about you, all of you, like old ladies, do you really think you are a Bodhisattva who saves the world?" Ji Yucang sneered, "You don't overestimate your own abilities."

After leaving these four words, he rolled his sleeves coldly: "Retreat from the court."

"Farewell to the Regent! Chitose..."

"Long live……"

"Well?"

The ministers knelt on the ground and quietly turned their heads to look around. Suddenly they didn't know whether to shout a thousand lives or a thousand lives. When they saw the troubled expressions on other people's faces, they couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, and simply stopped shouting anything.

Really.

Yuan Shangshu does not overestimate his own capabilities.
