Chapter 874: Inheriting Heaven And Earth, Responding To People's Hearts
Li Xun was very disappointed in being the boss, so he also wanted Xiao Ye to feel disappointed.
Of course, besides disappointing Xiao Ye, he really wanted to give Xu Qing a prince.
What brother in the world doesn't want Little Sister to marry the right family?
As for Xu Qing's current status as Marquis, Li Xun himself felt shabby when he saw it. If Xu Qing could stay in Zhou State, Li Xun would immediately crack the earth and become king.
He, Li Xun's Little Sister, is naturally going to be married.
But maybe the angle of the hoe was wrong, and it didn't dig Xu Qing.
But it doesn't matter, as long as Xu Qing can sit on the throne of the prince, even if he is a neighboring country, he, Li Xun, will suffer a bit in order to fulfill Little Sister's happiness.
But Chu State can't even give a king, or let Zhou Guoduo have no face?
This wave of Li Xun is not only for Little Sister but also for cheating Xiao Ye.
It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
Two days later, Li Xun soon ushered in the first morning court in his life.
Zhou Guo's civil and military officials also walked into the court tremblingly.
He greeted the boss with a skillful posture.
The former boss arranged the court very well before leaving, and the situation in the court of the major families has basically tended to balance. Although the princes with their blood did not become the boss, but fortunately, the princes of other families did not become the boss either. superior.
This made them all heave a sigh of relief.
Seizing the heir apparent is a gamble.
The party that wins the bet can recreate its glory and immediately become the most prominent family in the capital.
And if you lose the bet, you will also be doomed along with the prince who died in the fief due to unacceptable conditions or serious illness.
Now the new emperor is not in the list of seizing the prince. Although no family can take this opportunity to ascend to the sky in one step, but fortunately, no family can go with them forever.
In this way, they will have ample opportunity to prepare for the next succession.
Of course, it is useless for their aristocratic families to be fully prepared now, and the new emperor is not prepared at all.
Not to mention heirs, the new boss doesn't even have a queen or concubine now.
Even if they want to work hard, they have no direction!
...
However, Li Xun didn't care what these people were thinking, looked at Wu Xuan who was at the side and said, "Declaration."
Generally, the emperor's accompanying person is the chief eunuch who is in charge of the internal affairs, and is usually appointed by the new boss himself. Li Xun is busy these days familiarizing himself with what to do, and has not had time to make an appointment in the future.
This also led to the fact that Habayashi Wei Zhonglang will temporarily act as the person who announced the decree in the future.
Why?
Why are there eunuchs in the palace?
A very important point is the fear of being put on a green hat.
Considering that there are so many concubines, if someone is lonely in the palace, and all the servants in the palace are normal men, then the emperor's head is not glowing green?
But Li Xun has no such scruples, because he doesn't even have a queen, not to mention a concubine, and other women except his own Little Sister have never looked at him directly.
People like him are not afraid of cuckolds at all.
Of course, General Habayashi Weizhonglang's use as a chauffeur was only temporary, after a while Li Xun would have to pick out another eunuch, there was no way for Habayashi Weizhonglang to do this kind of work all the time.
One is because Habayashi Ei Nakaro will still have his own things to do. The second is because it is indeed safer to use eunuchs.
The eunuch is a person without roots, and there is no bloodline inheritance in this life. Without the bloodline, the ambition can be reduced by 90%. It is a loyal dog by the emperor's side. The power comes from the emperor, and the emperor can take it back whenever he wants.
A healthy man is different, maybe he will be the next emperor if he kills you in your sleep.
For the emperor's own safety, the eunuchs around him were indispensable.
Li Xun's first edict today is also very simple.
Probably it is to inherit the heaven and the earth, to respond to the hearts of the people, to inherit the ambition of the ancestors, to inherit the great tradition, and then a lot of blah blah blah.
Just after Li Xun had finished reading the first edict, a white-haired old man, Taifu Fan, stood up, looked at Li Xun and cursed: "Bah! Everyone in the world will be punished!"
Hearing Taifu Fan's words, several veteran ministers glared at Li Xun one after another, and it seemed that they were about to join the camp of trolls who were crusading against the rebels.
Li Xun nodded upon hearing Fan Taifu's words, then waved his hand and said, "Wu Xuan."
Wu Xuan at the side respectfully placed the read imperial decree on the imperial case, and then walked down the imperial steps.
The Grand Tutor Fan looked at Wu Xuan and said, "What? How dare you even look directly at this Grand Tutor?! You are not in the right position, you are a traitor!"
Wu Xuan didn't talk nonsense with Taifu Fan too much, he pulled out the saber from his waist and stabbed Taifu Fan in the stomach.
Fan Taifu died instantly on the spot.
All the ministers couldn't help but their eyelids twitched.
Li Xun looked at all the civil and military officials and said, "Does anyone have any objections?"
All the courtiers immediately bowed: "Long live my emperor!"
If the palace becomes an emperor, there is no one who does not kill people. It is not a sequential succession. If you are not tough, who can you control?
As the saying goes, if you shoot the top bird with a gun, whoever stands out will surely die.
Just like this Taifu Fan, although he is a high-ranking official, but his sons are not up to date and have not continued to make efforts for his family. I am still so noble and do not know how to adapt. If I don’t kill him, who will I kill?
What you want is a man of standing.
These courtiers all lamented how the Tai Tuo was so ignorant that even His Majesty, who subdued all the great families, could be put under house arrest. Don't you need to remind him how deep the city is?
Singing against him at this time, isn't it lighting the lamp in the toilet room—court death?
Li Xun looked at the obedient civil and military officials and nodded in satisfaction, then continued: "Bring the crown prince and Princess Yining."
The prince who was kept in captivity to eat swill was first brought up, and then Princess Yining, who was barely sheltered in the almost ruined princess mansion, was also brought here.
Li Xun's second imperial decree was to demote the prince and Princess Yining to common people.
Now no one in the Great Hall dares to have any objections, because the one who had objections just now has left...
After reading the two edicts, Li Xun walked down the imperial steps and came to Princess Yining. Princess Yining's clothes were disheveled at this time, and she seemed to be spending the past few days in fear.
Li Xun lowered his head to look at Princess Yining and said, "I remember you said back then that there were no lands in Zhou Kingdom, and Princess Mingyue had no fiefs? Wu Xuan, read the third edict!"
Wu Xuan, who had returned to the imperial ranks, finally opened the third edict:
The imperial edict said: "Princess Mingyue, the beauty of the country and the city, the beauty of the country and the fragrance of the sky, the quality of the blue heart, and the princess of the Mingyue, the eldest princess. Seeing the eldest princess is like seeing the king. Wherever the bright moon shines in the Zhou Kingdom, the place where the body is is the bright moon." The fief of the princess is the same as the capital, here it is!
