Lonely non-good minister

Chapter 263 Abdication Edict Acquired

Being accused by the crown prince, Emperor Taikang just frowned. He didn't think there was anything wrong with his thinking. He and his wife's son Wen Tao and Wu Lue far surpassed Song Chun, and his heart was no different from Song Yuan. Such a capable and sincere child, How can a white-eyed jackal like the prince and King Zhongshan compare with him?How can it be worth your own attention?

Emperor Taikang's reaction irritated the prince, making him feel that his questioning was a joke, and he didn't bother to argue right and wrong at such a time, and signaled Song Shi to send the things to the dragon case.

Song Shi stepped forward, considering that Emperor Taikang was too old to be able to read the text clearly because of his dizzy eyesight, so he directly started his tricks and read aloud: "I have been in power for 23 years, and the world has been shattered. I am old, every year is difficult, I do not let myself go, and work is worrying. When I see that the prince is the chief, it is for the storage of the people. The successor to the state should be established, but only recognize the virtuousness of the prince, and I hope that all new princes will obey me in public affairs and speak widely."

After reading every word, Emperor Taikang already had a sneer on his face. This edict for the Zen position really gave the prince enough face. In Song Dynasty, he spread the edict in front of him and never retreated. He just stood beside the dragon case and waited for the crown prince. Kangdi used seals.

"This position, even if it is given to you, you can't keep it." Emperor Taikang looked at the prince with disdain. Wei Shangwu, a well-mannered emperor can't sit on the throne firmly. The prince is too inferior to kill decisively, let alone He didn't look like a long-lived man at first glance, and he was afraid that he would never last until the day when his six sons would decide the winner.

The crown prince looked at him silently, over half a hundred years old, he was already used to Emperor Taikang's contempt, he always looked down on himself who was not good at horseback riding and archery, maybe when he was young, he would secretly practice bow horseback riding and archery with dissatisfaction This surprised Emperor Taikang, but now, he has no longer thought about how to make up for his own shortcomings.

"Your Majesty." Song Shi reminded: "It is said that Song Zhu has raised troops from Chenliu. This news is not released by the East Palace. The Emperor should be more aware of who is trying to disturb the water in Wei at this time. King Zhongshan has no news so far. Who can guarantee that he can come to Jingzhao in time? If he doesn't come in time, let those so-called King Qin's army arrive at Jingzhao first, and the emperor himself can't suppress them all, right? At that time, he will abdicate under their control Compared with the current abdication, even if the crown prince ascends the throne, the meaning is quite different. It is true that, as the emperor said, abdicating the East Palace at this time will not be beneficial, but the emperor abdicates and the crown prince ascends the throne. If they stay away from Jingzhao, the Great Wei will be stable, and the emperor can rest assured that the defenders outside Jingzhao City will intercept all those with bad intentions."

Song Shi's words still focused on the last part, "intercept all people with bad intentions", including King Zhongshan. The East Palace has already made sufficient preparations and will not let King Zhongshan rush to Jingzhao smoothly.

He has to bear the charge of rebellious officials and thieves, and he has to bear it if he doesn't.

Emperor Taikang took a deep look at him: "You have always been meticulous in your thoughts, and you obviously moved your hands, but you can still make everyone unable to catch it. The assassination at the same time as Song Yuan was also your arrangement."

Song Shi nodded and chuckled, as if he recognized it.

"If your father puts all the heart he devoted to Song Shu into you, maybe your family's weight in my heart will be different." Emperor Taikang didn't look down on Song Shu at all, a worthless son of the East Palace , It is simply a disgrace to the royal family.

Song Shi said: "It's just the truth of loving a house and a bird. Why is the emperor still deceiving himself and others at this time?"

He dared to refute himself, Emperor Taikang's face was ugly.

Song Shi directly took out the jade seal on the dragon case and printed it on the imperial edict, then picked up the ink pen and handed it to Emperor Taikang: "Your Majesty, please, if you delay, things will not change in any way."

The jade seal Zhu Zhu is an important evidence for the inspection of hundreds of officials. The three princes and nine officials will personally check and compare it. If the handwriting is slightly different, the edict will be invalidated.

Emperor Taikang didn't intend to do anything at all, the imperial edict without Zhu's approval is just a piece of waste paper, if he doesn't write it, the crown prince can't force him.

"Do you still remember, your majesty, that you once gave me a book that you personally annotated and commented on on my birthday?" Song Shi rolled up his sleeves, reminding him of the gap in the past, and stroked the four words "Zhen Zhun Zuo Er" wrote it up.

Chang De's complexion changed drastically, and he rushed over to compete for moves regardless of the rules. Song Shi had already lost the ink pen and took the edict away, blowing on the ink that was not dry. Looked like an emotional breakdown.

"The minister has already given the emperor enough opportunities to face the emperor. If the emperor doesn't cherish it himself, the minister can only overdo it." Song Shi walked towards the prince with the edict.

Emperor Taikang charged at the case, his turbid and hoarse voice could not stop him from venting his anger at all: "Zhuzi!"

Song Shi didn't care about his anger, he held the imperial edict to support the prince, his expression and tone softened: "Father, you can go."

The prince nodded, looking at Emperor Taikang, he seemed to have a lot to say, but after hesitating again and again, he still didn't say a word, and just waved his hand towards Song Shi.

Song Shi nodded, turned around and said: "The new emperor ascends the throne and will respect the emperor as the Supreme Emperor. At that time, the Supreme Emperor and the concubines will be invited to move to the Shou'an Palace to rest in their old age. I hope the Emperor will take care of his body and be happy forever."

After finishing speaking, Song Shi helped the prince to leave. Emperor Taikang grabbed the jade seal and threw it at them to no avail. Chang De hurriedly rushed to pick up the jade seal, holding the jade seal in both hands with a look of panic.

Furious, Emperor Taikang couldn't hold it anymore for a while, he sat slumped on the dragon chair, his face flushed from holding back, he was proud of his whole life, and when he fell into the hands of a young man like Song Shi, he was really shocked answer.

As soon as the crown prince and Song Shi left, the gate of the Taihua Palace was slammed shut by the imperial guards, and the gate would not be opened again until the crown prince ascended the throne.

After receiving the edict for the throne of Zen, the Song Dynasty immediately ordered all officials to go to the main hall of the court. The matter was urgent and there was no delay. Only by announcing the edict of abdication as soon as possible and letting the prince ascend the throne could he issue a decree to stop the army of King Qin summoned by the royal family outside Jingzhao. Let them fight with the soldiers and horses of Zhongshan Palace.

Before the servant who delivered the decree left the palace, the forbidden army rushed over: "Report, the soldiers and horses from Wei Wei's mansion have come in."

Song Shi quickly analyzed the situation and asked, "The people who besieged the palace have withdrawn?"

"Withdraw, the person who led the team to attack the palace city was Song Chun. The sixth son has already led people to fight with them in the front hall of the palace city. The Weiwei Mansion has taken control of the garrison soldiers and horses, and there are about 700 soldiers and horses under him. .”

Song Shi nodded: "Father, Song Chun leads the team, Song Jun can't take advantage of it, the edict has already been obtained, and the child has to rush to stop them. It's unexpected, and please return to the East Palace first."
