Chapter 2800: Extra: Nine Kings Seize the Crown Prince (8)

 Ni Debiao can be regarded as a "veteran" in front of Feng Ziying. Feng Ziying is not surprised that the other party can guess some of his thoughts.

Who makes his sons too good? In other words, who allowed him to have so many outstanding sons?

The King of Jin was brave and strong, the King of Chu was generous, the King of Qi was quick-thinking, the King of Wei was clever, the King of Qin was heroic and generous, the King of Zhao was strong and soft, the King of Yan was shrewd and capable, and the King of Han was calm and wise. It can be said that he was reluctant to part with any of them. .

If he were still trying to conquer the world, then King Jin would definitely be his first choice. Who would have thought that Shen Yixiu, who was good at calligraphy and painting, would actually give birth to a son who loved military affairs? This really showed the roots of the old Feng family. He is also his father's favorite son, and he has always hoped that he would make King Jin the crown prince.

The King of Chu should be the most suitable prince in the minds of many courtiers. He is generous and generous, and he is full of praise even for practicing state affairs.

The King of Qi is Feng Ziying’s favorite. It’s not that he is good at reading, but that the King of Qi is good at thinking. He likes to know what is going on and why. He is erudite and versatile.

 The second son of Baochai, King Wei, should be the one who is most like himself. His style of doing things has always been to leave no stone unturned and act only after planning.

The characters of the King of Qin and the King of Jin who came from Xiangyun are somewhat similar, but the King of Qin has a better reputation among the courtiers, and he and the King of Jin have more military morale in the army.



The King of Yan was born in Tanchun, and his personality was similar to that of his mother. He was meticulous, extremely organized, and had strong execution ability. In terms of practicing state affairs, he had the talent of a prime minister and assistant, which is a very high evaluation.

The King of Han was the son of Xichun. In Feng Ziying's mind, who could most rationally distinguish between pros and cons might be this son, and he also inherited certain aspects from his mother.

King Lu, however, took the initiative to give up the fight for the crown prince and strongly supported his brother. Brothers worked together as one, and they were more powerful than gold. Feng Ziying liked this child even more.

“De Biao, according to what you said, it’s mine, isn’t it?” Feng Ziying glanced sideways at the other party and said, neither salty nor cold.

"I dare not, but Your Majesty has been on the throne for twenty-eight years. The country is peaceful and the people are living and working in peace and contentment. If the princes want to inherit your inheritance, they must produce some achievements that satisfy you, so I have taken great pains to figure out your thoughts. Or there’s nothing wrong with doing things.”

 Ni Debiao said honestly.

 Feng Ziying sighed inwardly.

He doesn't know the whole story, or he is the instigator.

 Initially, I wanted to train the princes and select the most suitable candidate to be the crown prince.

But who would have thought that these sons of his might have inherited the advantages of himself and their mothers. Each one performed better than the other, which really dazzled him.

This one has excellent literary talent, the other has won the hearts of the military, the other handles things in an orderly manner, this one has his own style, and the other one behaves very much like himself.

This makes it difficult for me to make a decision all of a sudden. The longer I put it off, the harder it is to make a decision.

By now, Feng Ziying was in a state of confusion. She really didn’t know how to resolve this matter that was troubling her. She didn’t even dare to ask Yu Lianguo for advice. She was worried that they also had selfish motives, and worried that their decisions might not be as good as her own. arbitrary. Feng Ziying also knows that she is not young, she is fifty-five. In this era, she has entered old age. Even if she has the aura of a time traveler, Feng Ziying is not sure how many years she can live. Maybe not in ten years. The question is, how long will it take?

 It’s time to make a decision.

He hopes that the throne can be handed over to a certain prince smoothly and he can enjoy a leisurely life for a few years quietly, but he also knows that this extravagant wish may be difficult to realize.

"De Biao, tell me. I will not judge what they did. I just want to hear a fair word, and I will also listen to the response from the standard guard."

Ni Debiao knew that this was the emperor's warning to him not to be emotional. Banner Guards and Long Quanwei had now formed a pattern of mutual supervision and complementarity. One focused on internal affairs and the other on external affairs, but at the same time they also took into account other matters.

 “Your Majesty, actually the matter is not complicated,…”

Ni Debiao simply described the situation from when Xue Pan and Jia Baoyu started to intervene in Feng Zhijie’s capture and detention by the Wucheng Military and Horse Division, to later when Jia Baoyu began to “sway people” to find the King of Qin, King Zhao, King Han and others. With more and more people involved, and the involvement of the public opinion media, this matter has become a hot topic.

There are praises for the family ties between brothers and brothers, praises for "justice and annihilation of relatives" that follow the law, concerns about the princes "forming cliques", and concerns about the risks that the undecided crown prince of the Great China Dynasty may bring. reminders and suggestions.

"Haha, there are many people involved in this." Feng Ziying's expression remained unchanged. He generally knew these situations, but many details were not as clear as Ni Debiao's.

He even knew that businessmen from Shanxi and Shaanxi, emerging industrial forces in the south of the Yangtze River, reclamation forces in the Nanyang, and soldiers in the northwest have all expressed their attitudes explicitly or covertly. This is a very dangerous signal.

 Many people have realized that they are old and handing over power will be a matter of time. Perhaps they do not necessarily have to support a certain prince. They need a stable order and a clear goal.

Feng Ziying also knew that after twenty-eight years of her own imperial promotion system, it had become relatively complete. No matter who became the emperor, it would be difficult to change the empire's structure. Not to mention that no matter how smart and wise her sons were, they would not be nearly as good as herself. Compared with the prestige brought by the civil and military skills established in ten years.

The five-person cabinet system and the fact that all ministers need to be recommended by important ministers and representatives, and the scope of important ministers has also been expanded to include provincial governors. The representative system is being piloted, and representatives are selected from each industry and class, combined with the population of each province. A certain amount.

The meeting of ministers recommends and decides on the list. Except for the chief minister, who needs a two-thirds majority, other personnel must be approved by a simple majority vote of the representative meeting and submitted to the emperor for approval. The first minister, cabinet ministers, provincial governors, and ministers can be selected. Sure.

What about the emperor? Is it appropriate that the decision should be made by oneself, but now it is left to the "people" to make the choice?

 Does the election of an emperor also need to be decided using this procedure? It doesn't seem impossible, as long as it is one's own heir, well, illegitimate children must be excluded, then they will definitely not have the right to inherit the throne.

Feng Ziying also had a strange feeling in her heart. If the emperor's candidate was decided in this way, would he be able to create a new history?

Of course, Feng Ziying also knows that no matter which way it is, the role she plays in it will be decisive, and she can even achieve her goal with just a little guidance. But if this is the case for her own generation, what about the next generation, and the next generation after that?

 Automatic update will end soon.
