Here, Di Xin and Ouyang Xuan were discussing navy training, but nothing happened elsewhere.
Half a year is enough time for a lot of things to happen.
No matter how lively Di Xin's side is, it is still limited to a corner of northern Xinjiang. The waves it causes will at most radiate to the surrounding provinces, which is nothing to the entire Dali.
What really made the whole Dali lively was a piece of news from the capital.
After the unremitting efforts of the royal family and the court, a strange person was finally found among the people, who cured the old emperor's serious disease that countless imperial doctors were unable to cure.
Now, after more than half a year of training, the old emperor is not only out of danger, but has also regained his ability to move.
Except for his slow movements due to lying down for many years, the old emperor's body was no different from that of a normal person.
Yes, this not only means that the old emperor has recovered from his injuries, but also points out that the old emperor, like the former King Yu, has lost all his cultivation.
Decades of cultivation were gone in one fell swoop.
Although after examination by the imperial doctor and the palace enshrinement, it was said that the old emperor was actually different from King Yu. His foundation was still there, and if he wanted to have cultivation, he could still practice again.
But with the old emperor's current age, everyone knows that this is just talk.
At his current age, he can only cultivate to the entry level at most, which is already the limit. It is basically impossible to have the second realm cultivation level before.
But this is just the old emperor's own regret.
For the officials, it didn't matter whether the emperor had any cultivation level, and there was no need for him to personally go into battle to kill the enemy.
The most important point is that the old emperor who has recovered can now take charge of the government.
The emperor is the master of a country and the core of the court's operation.
Although there was a king who oversaw the country and his ability to handle government affairs was not bad, the emperor was unable to govern personally, so the operation of the court always seemed to be missing something.
The whole of Dali will also be in a state of panic.
The emperor is the anchor of a country.
Even those who support King Cheng are looking forward to the day when the old emperor can take charge personally.
And the old emperor did not disappoint them, nor was his energy sapped by so many years of pain.
After his body recovered, he held his first court meeting in several years and took back the rights that originally belonged to him.
However, it is worth mentioning that the old emperor did not remove King Cheng from his position as supervisor of the country and still asked him to assist in handling government affairs.
This is almost another obvious sign.
If it is said that more than a year ago, the old emperor felt that his time was running out, so he asked King Cheng to supervise the country with the intention of inspecting it, but it can be said that he was not necessarily made a prince.
But now, after the emperor took charge, he still asked King Cheng to supervise the country, which represented recognition of his efforts over the past year.
At the same time, it also changed from inspection to training.
Although for some unknown reason, the old emperor still did not explicitly establish the king as the prince, this time, including the neutral officials, he was truly regarded as the prince.
After this day, the threshold of Prince Cheng's Mansion was almost trampled down by visiting officials again.
At the same time, everyone paid less attention to the land in Northern Xinjiang.
Even though His Royal Highness King Yu was extremely talented, he made great achievements by pacifying the Turks, Goguryeo, and Uighur tribes within a few years of taking office in Northern Xinjiang.
At the same time, Northern Xinjiang is also well taken care of.
However, when the old emperor who had been supporting King Yu secretly in the past also showed his recognition of King Cheng, King Yu, who was far away in the frontier, no longer had the power to compete in the eyes of everyone.
In their opinion, the best outcome for King Yu is to assist His Highness King Cheng and continue to expand the territory for the Great Departure.
The most likely outcome is that after His Highness King Cheng succeeds to the throne, in order to prevent endless nightmares, he will liquidate the former biggest rival to the throne.
Some people expressed regret for this fate, but no one expressed sympathy.
The battle for the throne is like this. Now that you have stepped into this whirlpool, you should be mentally prepared for what kind of outcome you will get.
But what surprised them was that King Yu, who was far away in northern Xinjiang, seemed not to notice anything.
He only sent people to send gifts to the capital to wish his father a good recovery, but there was no other action. It was as if even if he became king and succeeded to the throne, it would have no impact on him.
But strangely enough, King Yu did not do anything unwise because of this, which made them relieved.
The former expeditionary force had fully demonstrated the strength of the Northern Xinjiang Army.
The expeditionary force only has 30,000 troops, but the entire northern Xinjiang has 90,000 troops.
If King Yu has no hope of succeeding to the throne but refuses to give up and starts a rebellion, even if the court succeeds in suppressing the rebellion, it will suffer countless losses.
When the time comes, the barbarians who have just signed a peace treaty may break the treaty again.
Da Li, who had just experienced the happy event of the emperor's recovery, could not withstand such a blow.
At the same time, their evaluation of King Yu, who focused on the whole of Dali, also rose by one point.
As for the emperor's recovery, as his son, Prince Yu only sent a congratulatory gift instead of returning to the capital to congratulate him, which they could understand.
Now that he has become the king, King Yu's return to the capital at this time is no different than throwing himself into a trap.
In the eyes of everyone, King Cheng had not yet been publicly established as the crown prince. It was a temporary compromise made by the old emperor in order to appease King Yu who had tens of thousands of troops.
At this time, if King Yu returns to the capital, he will most likely be plotted by the old emperor and King Cheng.
In this baseless capital, King Yu alone would never be a match for the old emperor and King Cheng.
In order to protect himself, he must not go to the capital.
Some people even suspect that this was the real purpose of the old emperor's original reward for Prince Yu, which included a token that allowed him to travel to and from the capital independently.
At that time, the old emperor had just received treatment from the charlatan and was still not sure whether he would recover.
From that time on, he began to plan for the present. The old emperor was indeed so terrifying.
Everyone was shocked to realize that although he had been lying on the bed for many years, he was still the same Holy Master who once stood with Emperor Master Xia Yan.
If anyone thinks that the old emperor is easy to fool when he has just recovered from a serious illness, I am afraid that the grass on the grave will be as tall as one person the next day.
After a few unlucky guys who couldn't see clearly tried their own methods, the old emperor smoothly took over the imperial power that originally belonged to him and firmly sat on the throne that was above tens of millions of people.
…
After the second court meeting under the rule of the old emperor.
After the court, King Cheng returned to the study room in the palace, his face immediately darkened.
To be able to gain a foothold in the center of the power whirlpool in the capital, even a seventh-grade official in the capital would not be a fool, let alone all the officials in the court.
All seemingly stupid actions have deep plans behind them.
Those unlucky ones who were dealt with by the emperor with thunderous force were brought out by King Cheng to test the old emperor.
However, the old emperor's actions also showed that his purpose of using the position of supervising the country to eclipse the old emperor was defeated.
Even if he has been lying on the hospital bed for many years, a tiger is still a tiger and should not be underestimated.
"Fortunately, the position of supervising the country is still there, so we can only take care of it slowly."
