Chu Xuanchen serves the country and the people, and cares about the world. He hopes that the Chu country can have more talents like this, so that the Chu country will not become like this.
He never wanted anything to happen to Chu Xuanchen, and he even hoped that Chu Xuanchen could bring Yun Ruoyue back and save the people with him.
But Chu Xuanchen is not in Chu State now.
Someone needs to clean up this mess in Chu State.
He cannot let the country sink any further, he must lift it up.
He looked at Nalan Jun solemnly, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, father-in-law."
Nalan Jun smiled and waved his hand, "You don't need to thank me now, it's too early. Liuyun, during this period, I have not only planned these things for you, but also other things, which are all beneficial to your fight for the position of prince."
You will know about it when the time comes."
The wise king looked surprised. He looked at Nalan Jun gratefully and said, "Father-in-law, you don't have to work so hard. Liuyun will plan these things on his own."
Nalan Jun waved his hand, "Hey! With your own strength, how can you unite our Nalan family faster? With the Nalan family as your backing, it will be more advantageous for you to compete for the position of prince."
"My son-in-law knows!" The wise king handed over his hand again.
Nalan Jun smiled heartily and said, "Liu Yun, I am doing this for you, not just for you, but also for Meng'er. I am very pleased to see that you and Meng'er have been in love with each other recently and treated each other as guests. I am very pleased.
As long as you two can continue to love each other and Meng'er gives birth to a boy and a half girl for you, my wish will be enough!"
Seeing the admiration in Nalan Jun's eyes, a trace of guilt flashed in the Xian Wang's eyes.
Nalan Jun was so kind to him, but he couldn't fall in love with Nalan Meng.
However, although he could not give Nalanmeng love, he would definitely treat her well and never let her be wronged.
He raised his eyes and said seriously: "Okay, father-in-law, please rest assured, no matter what, I will treat Meng'er well."
Even without Nalan Jun's help, he would never treat Nalan Meng badly.
-
After Nalan Jun and Uncle Fu left, King Xian sat alone in front of the window and looked out the window quietly.
Perhaps in Nalanjun's view, he is a person who wants to fight for power.
But only he himself knows that he is not like this.
In the past, when he was sick, he fought for power just to protect himself.
Until he met Yun Ruoyue, he thought that Chu Xuanchen was treating Yun Ruoyue very badly, so he wanted to have rights to protect her.
Later he discovered that things were not as he thought, so he wisely withdrew and left.
Now he is fighting for power just for the sake of the people and to change the quagmire-like state of Chu.
He didn't want Chu State to continue like this, he didn't want the country he lived in to become devastated, and he didn't want the people to suffer.
So he wants to have the power, to change everything, and to save the people.
During this period, not only Nalan Jun's help, but also the wise king himself often led troops to attack the bandits, and also used various methods to relieve the people.
Gradually, he gained a lot of popular support among the people.
At the same time, Nalan Jun also brought many private troops from Donglin Kingdom in the name of developing mines and doing business, letting them hide everywhere to secretly support the wise king.
The people of the Nalan family were scattered throughout the Chu Kingdom, working for the wise king and doing many good deeds for him that benefited the country and the people.
With Nalanjun's help, the wise king won many people's support among the people, and also gained many supporters in the court.
Most importantly, with the efforts of the Nalan family, Nalan Jun attracted the most powerful supporter for the wise king.
That is Prime Minister Yunqing.
As prime minister, Yunqing held a high position and had many proud disciples in the court. His power was intricate and intricate.
With his support, the wise king has a better chance of winning.
The wise king also did not expect that Nalan Jun was so powerful that he actually persuaded Yun Qing, who had always been neutral, to support him.
Now with the support of the people and so many important ministers, Emperor Hongyuan also regarded the virtuous king very highly and rewarded him many times.
As a result, the virtuous king's prestige reached unprecedented levels, and he was at the height of his power in the court.
As his power grew, more officials came to join him and support him.
Therefore, in a short period of time, the wise king became the most popular candidate to compete for the crown prince.
-
On this day, Emperor Hongyuan had just gone to court, and Yun Qing stepped forward and said seriously: "To inform the emperor, the government and the public have been in turmoil recently, and the world is in chaos. If this continues, people's hearts will become more and more unstable. I think that the emperor should have established a prince as early as possible.
To reassure the people and consolidate the foundation of the country."
"I second the proposal." Yun Qing and a group of officials under King Xian also said.
Establish a prince?
Emperor Hongyuan narrowed his eyes slightly.
In fact, he had already had this idea.
His health is deteriorating now, so he should appoint a prince as a precaution.
He looked at Yun Qing and said: "I have also considered this issue, but establishing a crown prince is a matter of great importance and should not be trivial. Mr. Yun, do you have a suitable candidate in mind?"
Yun Qing thought for a while, glanced at the wise king next to him, and said: "Your Majesty, I recommend the wise king."
"Why?" Emperor Hongyuan asked.
Yun Qing said: "The wise king has a kind heart, is brave and resourceful, is calm and calm when facing difficulties, and has great talents and strategies. He is really the best choice for the position of prince."
After hearing Yun Qing's words, Su Ming secretly raised his eyelids.
He had expected this result.
Emperor Hongyuan looked at the others again and said, "My dear friends, what do you think?"
Someone immediately said: "Your Majesty, I also think that the wise king is the best candidate for the crown prince."
"I second the proposal." Others said in unison.
Seeing so many people supporting King Xian, Li Jin, Dong Changfeng and others looked worried.
In this regard, the best candidate for crown prince is of course Prince Li.
King Li was concerned about the country and the people, and was always doing things for the people.
Not only did he often provide disaster relief and help people, he also worked hard to improve people's livelihood. Princess Li was a living Bodhisattva who saved the world and saved people.
Over the years, King Li has fought hundreds of battles, large and small, and won almost every one of them.
Without him protecting his family and country outside and fighting bloody battles, would Emperor Hongyuan still be able to sit peacefully on the dragon throne?
I am afraid that the Chu State has long been in ruins.
Although they were very dissatisfied with Yun Qing's proposal, they had nothing to say.
Because Prince Li was the son of the late Emperor, not the blood of Emperor Hongyuan.
How could Emperor Hongyuan let Prince Li succeed to the throne?
So they had no choice but to lower their heads sadly, feeling very disappointed.
As for the King of Yan and other princes next to him, they all lowered their heads nervously, feeling very worried in their hearts.
What would they do if a wise king was made a prince?
But now that the wise king is at the top of his game and most of the ministers in the palace support him, they have no chance of winning.
At this time, a minister who was biased towards King Yan stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I recommend King Yan. His Royal Highness King Yan is mature and dignified, with noble character. He has made many contributions to the Chu State in the past. I think he is also qualified to serve as the crown prince."
Job."
Yun Qing snorted disdainfully, "Master Wu, you are talking nonsense. How can King Yan's achievements be compared with His Highness the Xian King?"
Lord Wu sneered, "If we really want to talk about merit, then who can compare with King Li?"
