Fourteen years old.

At this age, in the eyes of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, he was still just a child!

But that face that still looked young showed a completely unnatural ferocity.

What did you experience?

How could he have such hatred?

He said such words in front of the civil and military officials of the entire dynasty.

I just killed him!

Killing him a hundred times is not enough!

The whole place was silent, and everyone fell into a state of confusion.

Everyone has multiple faces, and what really comes out is not the appearance.

At this moment, the hysterical prince Xiao Zhenghe tore apart the superficial harmony and exposed the throne struggle!

Family affection becomes as weak as water in front of the throne.

Even though the enemy army is outside Shangjing City and is launching an attack, it still cannot stop...

Finished venting.

Xiao Zheng finally calmed down and said casually: "If you feel that I am immoral and unworthy of my position, you can deprive me of my position as crown prince!"

"Enough!"

"Enough!"

Emperor Long Jing finally came to his senses, his body was shaking with anger!

Don't let the family scandal be publicized!

This applies to any family, and the royal family is a family that values ​​face. If word of what happened today spreads out, wouldn’t it make people laugh?

"Guan Ning's army is just outside the city. If you are so angry, why don't you go to war and are you still doing this at this time?"

Emperor Long Jing finally spoke the truth.

But the courtiers slandered in their hearts.

Who caused this result?

If you hadn't forcibly settled the young prince, how could this have happened?

The root cause is within you, and you don't even know it yet.

Hear this.

Xiao Zheng looked at his eldest brother with disdain, almost provocatively.

His father did not blame him, nor did he say that he would abolish his position as crown prince. Instead, he gave him fifty pieces of advice.

it's useless!

No matter what you do, it won't change.

Xiao Teng understood it, and so did he.

But he doesn't hate Xiao Zheng anymore, and can even understand him.

From what he just said, you can hear his resentment.

It's not Xiao Zheng's fault.

Before he was appointed crown prince, he had never thought about competing for the throne because he was the youngest and had no chance.

It was his father who pushed him to the forefront.

The root cause lies in the father!

It is his greed and stupidity that have caused this situation.

It was he who forced Guan Ning to rebel!

Xiao Teng knew that his father could no longer continue to be emperor, otherwise Dakang would really be doomed...

Only he can save Dakang.

While he was thinking, Emperor Long Jing spoke again: "In the battle to defend the city the day before yesterday, 30,000 city guards were killed. At this time, our country is facing unprecedented difficulties. Fortunately, an old minister like Xue Huairen still sticks to the front line!

"

His voice was high-pitched and deliberately inflated.

This is to divert the dispute just now, and also to get to the point.

This is the purpose of the court meeting.

But when these words fell into Fei Tian's ears, he almost laughed out loud.

The officials you mentioned are ready to open the city gates to welcome Guan Ning's army into the city. If you knew the truth, would you vomit blood?

Emperor Longjing continued: "But please don't panic. Our country, Dakang, has lasted for more than two hundred and seventy years. What kind of crisis has it not experienced?"

"There were barbarians who invaded the pass and even went to Beijing. Isn't our dynasty still standing tall?"

What he said made many people unable to listen.

At that time, the Zhenbei Palace was in front, but you were able to force the Zhenbei Palace back.

Emperor Long Jing was still enjoying himself.

"We, Dakang, have more than 1.5 million troops. We have issued orders from the king and ordered the troops from all over the country to rush to reinforcements. The capital has held firm for three months, and the enemy troops have dispersed without a fight. What does Guan Ning have? How long can he sustain the consumption?"

Fei Tian rolled his eyes helplessly.

Your Majesty, are you living in a dream?

In the past, Dakang was indeed a powerful country, with 1.5 million troops, but that did not include the Zhenbei Army. The rest would have been completely defeated in just a few years.

As for King Qin's edict, it was issued before Guan Ning's army arrived outside Shangjing City, but what effect did it have?

After such a long time, who has come to Qinwang?

The whole north fell into Guan Ning's hands.

There are rebels in the south who have just surrendered to Guan Ning, and the troops left by Guan Ning in the southwest have come out of Longzhou and are advancing towards other states.

No one can be the King of Qin anymore.

As for what you said about holding the capital for three months, the enemy troops dispersed without a fight.

This is possible.

But no chance.

The army will enter the city today.

Emperor Longjing spoke impassionedly, but the courtiers had no reaction.

They know this is all nonsense and there should be a turning point.

really.

Emperor Long Jing changed the subject.

"However, the rebel thief Guan Ning is pressing forward step by step. The situation is critical and the defense of the city is unfavorable. We must gain buffer time!"

Hear this.

Gao Lian's face darkened.

Many courtiers were suddenly startled. Who could not understand the implication of these words?

Where does buffering come from?

Naturally, I have to agree to Guan Ning’s conditions!

Is His Majesty finally making up his mind?

Some people are happy.

As long as Guan Ning's requirements are met, Guan Ning will have no reason to attack Shangjing again. This can save some reputation for the court and gain buffer time...

Reputation is really important.

Which dynasty in the past can dare to say that it has never encountered rebellion?

Under feudal rule, dissatisfaction was common, but how many people actually succeeded in rebelling?

Very few feudal kings successfully rebelled.

What's the reason?

Because they are not orthodox.

Emperor Longjing went too far, colluding with the barbarians to persecute Guan Zhongshan, and a series of other things that greatly ruined his character and lost the support of the people.

This is the main reason.
