Chapter 1396
Chapter 1395 Controversy in the Court
As Jiangshan said, Ling Xi said in front of everyone that he wanted to make Jiangshan the emperor and empress was just for the purpose of concentrating the power of his old ministers.
At that time, she didn't think too much about the various court battles that caused in the harem in the future.
When she heard Jiang Shan say this last night, she finally realized that she was indeed lacking in governing the country and was not considerate enough.
Becoming the emperor is like the issue of the emperor and the empress.
Today, in the court, Jiangshan came forward to explain her intention to the ministers that she only established an emperor but not an emperor for the time being. However, the ministers in the court began to discuss it again, and many people opposed this resolution.
Jiangshan first contacted important officials who had been good with him before, so everyone was convinced by him as the emperor. But after Ling Xi recovered the imperial city, the ministers who came to the court were not just the second prince party of that year.
At that time, the government was divided into three parties, seven princesses, and five princesses, and one party was neutral. Most of the neutral people supported the second prince.
Whether it is the Seventh Princess or the Fifth Princess who make the final profit, as long as the Emperor and Empress are the Second Prince, they will not have any objection.
But at this time, the fifth princess's people became unruly parties, so naturally they all moved closer to the seventh princess, but they were not as loyal to the country as the second princess.
Speaking of the issue of the emperor and the empress, a minister finally couldn't help but stand up and said loudly:
"Your Majesty, when Mr. Jiang was the second prince, he did make a lot of contributions to the people of Yueli, but it is a fact that he is the third prince of Xingchen Kingdom. No matter what festivals there have been between Mr. Jiang and King Chen, they are always fathers and sons connected by blood. Our people of Yueli have been enslaved by Xingchen's army for a whole year, and they all have anger towards the royal family of Xingchen. If Mr. Jiang becomes the emperor or emperor at this time, I am afraid that the people will criticize him."
Hearing this, although Ling Xi's face was still calm, his heart was filled with turmoil.
This is a bit serious. Not only does it not support Jiangshan as the emperor, but it is even unwilling to let him sit in the position of the emperor.
Without waiting for Ling Xi and Jiangshan to react, Yang Qingshan had already stepped forward two steps and leaned towards Ling Xi and said:
"Your Majesty, although Mr. Jiang is the third prince of Xingchen, he has already drawn a clear line with King Chen in the battle between the Xingchen royal family. What's more, this time, the arrest of Princess Yue was also the one who took the lead in launching an imperial city mutiny. Your Majesty, it is said that don't ask the source of the hero. Even if Mr. Jiang has had a status of his, he has made more contributions to Yueli than his fault. I believe that Mr. Jiang has the absolute qualification to serve as the emperor or even the emperor and empress."
Last night, Jiangshan summoned them to the study and explained to them the complex relationship that they could not be the emperor and empress, everyone accepted it and no longer insisted on who would become the emperor and empress.
After all, this is a royal matter. If Your Majesty first grants seven emperors, then you will wait until the matter is over and then slowly discuss the candidates for the emperor and empress after the wedding.
They believed that with the prestige and great strategy of the country in Yueli, more and more subjects would support him in the future, but it was obvious that some people would not be able to let him benefit in the court, and these people would definitely support others.
If others were asked to be the emperor and empress, Yang Qingshan would be the first to be dissatisfied. At least for now, except for Jiangshan, he also believes that who is qualified to be the emperor and empress.
"Your Majesty." Lord Shangshu also took two steps forward, saluted Ling Xi like Yang Qingshan, and then said aloud:
"Your Majesty, please think twice about the establishment of an emperor. Since ancient times, the position of the emperor will not exceed three people. One, three, and seven husbands are the rules set by our ancestors. This time, your Majesty set a precedent for setting seven people as the emperor. This move is absolutely inappropriate."
Ling Xi rubbed his forehead and frowned quietly. He raised his eyes and secretly glanced at Chu Han, who was sitting aside without saying anything. Seeing that there was no expression on his face, and even a hint of disdain in his eyes, she rubbed her temples again, feeling her head getting heavier and heavier.
With Chu Han's style of doing things, who dares to object and secretly knock people off. Only when Mr. Chu disdains to worry about such things.
Anyway, he can always be clean and neat, and has nothing to do with him.
But these are all her ministers, so where can they be wiped off at will?
When you look back, you must make it clear to them and make it clear. As a royal family, you can’t do things so casually in the future.
Lord Shangshu clearly felt a sharp gaze falling on him. He didn't need to look up, and he knew who was staring at him with a gaze that was enough to make people freeze.
Although Mr. Chu just sat there quietly, the cold breath was still unignorable.
Lord Shangshu was a little uneasy, but he still said with a thorn in his mouth: "I hope Your Majesty can reconsider the establishment of the emperor, or..."
He secretly raised the corner of his eyes and glanced at Chu Han. Although he sat casually, his sharp eyes were staring at him.
He was startled and his voice trembled: "Or...or you can make Master Chu and Master Jiang the emperor first, and others will be the emperor's husbands for the time being, so..."
Before he could finish his words, everyone suddenly heard a "pop" sound, and the floor tiles under Lord Shangshu's feet exploded at a speed visible to everyone's naked eyes.
The place where he was standing now, in addition to the terrifying cracks, there was also a thin layer of ice and snow on the ground.
Lord Shangshu's legs became weak and he almost fell down in fear.
But when he looked up at Chu Han, he clearly saw a glimmer of satisfaction flashing in Mr. Chu's eyes.
My words just now were clearly trying to please him, and I shouldn't offend him. It was obvious that Mr. Chu was very satisfied with his proposal, and he had no reason to take action against him.
A breeze oozed into the hall from somewhere, blowing onto the neck, cool and making people feel shiver.
Lord Shangshu looked around but still saw nothing unusual.
Just now, who was trying to scare him?
Lord Shangshu didn't know, and even other ministers in the court didn't know, but Ling Xi, who was sitting on the dragon throne and the two beside him knew very well.
Although some great gods did not come directly to the court to attend court with them, it does not mean that they will not follow.
Everyone knows that behind the large screen made of gold behind the court is a hall similar to the study, which is the place for His Majesty to discuss matters temporarily.
They were discussing here in full swing, but some people could not wait to wait there to listen all the way.
Since you are listening, how could you not give the "live and dead" Lord Shangshu a little color?
