This is not some high-spirited show that Zhao Xi wants to play. Regarding the current situation of the throne, whether Zhao Xi holds the title of emperor or not, it has nothing to do with the essence.
Whether he ascends the throne or not does not affect the fact that he is already the master of the Song Dynasty.
More importantly, Zhao Xi believes that due to his current situation, his father should be more concerned about the position of emperor.
When people leave, only new people laugh. This is the truth and cannot be changed by human will.
Zhao Xi did not expect the servants of the inner garden to have deep feelings for his father. There is definitely a big difference between the replacement of the throne and the care for his father and the maintenance of the throne as it is.
Zhao Xi also has one point in his mind that he thinks cannot be ignored.
Everyone has feelings. Dad has been in power for more than 40 years, which is a generation of time. Today's court, and even the common people of the entire country, the subconscious emperor is Dad.
When my father was ill, he ascended the throne like this. Although there was no resistance, there was no denying the emotional nostalgia.
My own governing philosophy is definitely different from that of my father.
As long as my father is still in power and still bears the title of emperor, and he formulates the strategy, giving the court and his subjects a step-by-step adaptation process, there will be no discomfort when he officially takes office.
Putting someone on the horse and giving him a ride is the best way to hand over power.
But now, they are just adopting this method passively.
Zhao Xi had thought about these things many times on the way back, and refusing to give in was also his decision after careful consideration.
His Royal Highness's attitude is firm, his reasons are sufficient, and his emotions are sincere.
The tears in the corners of Guan Jia's eyes said it all.
There is no greed or greed for power, it is a reluctance to give up life.
There are not many fools present, especially the princes. Although they believe in His Highness the Crown Prince's feelings and respect his words, only I know what everyone thinks in their hearts.
Han Qi wanted to take a look at Fu Bi, but held back.
No matter what thoughts His Highness the Crown Prince has behind his back, this is not the time to speak.
Whether to recommend that the prince ascend the throne or to recommend that the officials withdraw their orders, under such circumstances, as a minister, facing two generations of emperors, he could not speak.
Everyone wants to take the merit of supporting the establishment. All ministers and ministers present have the possibility of taking the merit of supporting the establishment.
But everyone knows who His Royal Highness the Prince is and who the officials are.
His Highness the Crown Prince is not the kind of person who always speaks his mind. He refuses to give in at this time, even if it may not be his true thoughts. Once he says it, it will become his true thoughts.
Officials, on the other hand, have never been generous people. The reason for proposing to abdicate was more because of the situation. As he was already like this, it was better to let his son take the throne to avoid causing trouble.
"Dad, there are ministers who are working hard for the country. Whether the child is in the country or not does not make any difference."
"But now, dad's recovery is more important than the child's accession to the throne. A day when dad is healthy is a day when the country has a backbone, and a day when the child has someone to rely on. The child begs dad to take back his life..."
Zhao Xi knelt down again and looked up at his father.
His father is an emperor, and he has been on the throne since he was a child. Zhao Xi hopes that his father can understand a little bit, even a little bit of his thoughts.
Dad couldn't speak at this time, so he could only pay attention to his expression so as not to ignore any changes.
"The official...Xi'er..."
The scene was a bit cold, and the queen spoke. The princes may not have felt that they were in a position to persuade, so she spoke.
But as soon as I opened my mouth, I discovered that I couldn't take any stand.
At this time, Zhao Zhen looked at Chen Lin, who was still dazed while holding Shuowen Jiezi...
Can……
Finally, he breathed a sigh of relief. Whether it was Zhao Xi or the empress, including these husbands, they were finally freed from the embarrassing scene.
It was originally intended to announce to the world that His Majesty was seriously ill, but this time, with Sima Guang's polish, he not only announced that the Emperor was seriously ill, but also announced the circumstances and reasons for His Royal Highness's refusal to abdicate.
For a time, in conjunction with His Highness the Crown Prince's Western Expedition and the great victory, His Highness the Crown Prince's reputation once again reached its peak among the military, scholars, and the marketplace.
It really doesn't matter whether you have the title of emperor or not.
Perhaps when they heard that the emperor was not seriously ill, the people who had benefited from the kindness of the officials over the years would feel sad for a moment... Even the emperor could not escape birth, old age, illness and death.
Once it's over, it's over. It's about supporting your family that you should worry about.
New troops carrying muskets could be seen everywhere in Bianliang. After about ten days, everyone got used to it.
Therefore, Bianliang is still the same Bianliang.
The court is still the same court, but instead of the officials who originally handled government affairs in Chui Gong Hall, His Royal Highness and the officials handle government affairs in Yanfu Palace.
Another biggest change, which is also the biggest issue in the court now, is the handling of the attack on His Royal Highness on his return trip.
Lao Chen Lin is indeed not given for free. In the past few days when the official family has been ill, the entire Imperial City Division has not been idle.
"Your Highness, since the official fell ill, 73 people have left the palace, 16 people have gone on official business, and the rest have been invited to go out for private matters, and some have gone out privately..."
Lao Chen Lin never reported it, mainly because she didn’t know who to report it to.
“First, arrest those who go out privately. For those who go out for private matters, the situation of handling private affairs will be implemented. Anyone who is inconsistent with the actual situation will be dealt with in the same manner as the former... Even those who are on official business must also check the specific matters in detail!
"
After Zhao Xi finished speaking, he naturally cast a questioning look at his father.
Fortunately, Dad blinked twice, which was a sign of approval. There was also appreciation in his eyes.
"Chen Aiban will hand over the arrested suspects, together with some people detained in Gongfang City, to the court..."
"Your Highness, this matter..."
"Chen Adban, this matter may involve many people, and it is not impossible that it may even involve court officials. The servants in Neiyuan are nothing more than tipsters. They can really stir up trouble and organize soldiers to attack me. They are by no means simple.
This is something only the servants of Neiyuan can do."
After Zhao Xi finished speaking, he noticed that his father's eyelids kept blinking... He forgot that he had not told his father about the attack.
"Dad, when the child returned to the court, the Qinzhou government suggested that the child bring 50,000 new troops back to the court and capture all the rebels who attacked in the Tongguan area. Now, the child has asked the new army to take over Bianliang... without explaining it to the father.
Please punish me."
Old Chen Lin was surprised. His Royal Highness has been back for a few days and has not mentioned anything about the attack on him. As for the guard battalion taking over the inner garden, in Chen Lin's opinion, it is the right thing to do, not to mention the imperial city.
Even if Si’s participation was absent, he still felt that it should be done.
Zhao Zhen looked at old Chen Lin again...~
Good...Fortunately, what Dad wanted to express was that he agreed with his actions.
Zhao Xi does not want to completely separate the inner garden and the court. For matters that may involve the inner garden, clan members and courtiers this time, it is better for the imperial court to take the lead.
Neiyuan dealt with it arbitrarily, but it did not help to fully investigate the matter.
