Chapter 271 The dust may not settle!

The original capital was just undercurrents, and it was still very calm on the surface.

However, this edict to establish the crown prince was like a deep water bomb, causing the entire court to surging in an instant.

The prince is the eldest prince...

This fat King of Qin has been forgotten by everyone. None of the three provinces, six ministries, nine ministers, and other large and small yamen in Jingzhao Mansion are attached to the King of Qin Mansion, which means that the prince is isolated and helpless.

The imperial court should not have been established in this way, nor would it have been established as such a prince without any foundation.

Generally speaking, the crown prince becomes the crown prince when he is young, and the emperor will send a large number of officials, lecturers, etc. to the Eastern Palace, so that His Highness can establish his own small court in the Eastern Palace early. When the crown prince succeeds to the throne in the future, the small court will replace the large court and complete the power change.

But King Ji Ku of Qin had nothing.

He is already in his thirties, and at present there are only some retainers of the Qin Palace. Even if he moves to the Eastern Palace, it will be too late for the emperor to send him a teacher.

Everyone knows that today's body...

I can't hold on for too long.

In such a short time, the power of the Eastern Palace faction is really greater than that of the other princes?

More importantly, does that old master with a big belly really have the ability to hold this position?

All of this is unknown.

However, these are still hidden dangers and will not erupt for the time being. On the afternoon of the day after the edict was read, when the Qin Palace was still preparing for the moving matter, many officials had already come to the Qin Palace to congratulate the crown prince with gift lists.

Even if the crown prince is useless, the title of this prince can already help him gather a large number of forces.

However, these officials who gave gifts were basically fourth- and fifth-rank officials, and those second- and third-rank officials, were still waiting and watching and would not end so early.

The Qin King's Mansion was overcrowded.

Some of the fat Princess were surrounded by a group of officials.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is a sacred and virtuous man, respectful, filial and pure, and should be my crown prince!"

"I have long seen that His Highness the Crown Prince is brave and now His Majesty is wise and has indeed made the Crown Prince!"

These people flattered and said more than anything else.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is His Majesty's eldest son. He should have entered the Eastern Palace long ago. It's a pity that you have to end up today!"

This sentence means that the current emperor has wronged the prince and is already criticizing His Majesty.

Although the fat Prince was not smart, he knew that he shouldn't say this, and immediately looked dark: "What are you talking nonsense? My father is extremely wise. I used to try to hone my lonely temperament. How could I feel wronged?"

After becoming the prince, he cannot call himself the king, but can only be called alone.

The flattering official shrank his head and smiled flatteringly: "Your Highness is right. Your Highness is pure and filial. I admire you..."

The Qin Palace has been out of interest for more than ten years. Now that he has turned over, so many people have come to the door, the Crown Prince cannot help but feel a little fluttered. He immediately raised his head and said, "Gu has not received a great gift yet, nor has he moved to the Eastern Palace. It's too early to say this now. You all have parted. Gu wants to go to the Shangshutai and go to the director with all the prime ministers."

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is diligent, I admire you..."

A crowd of flattery sounds came over, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was a little fluttered, got into his sedan chair, and staggered towards the Shangshu Deck.

As a fat man, His Royal Highness hasn't gone out for a long time.

At this time, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was naturally proud, and the other three princes each had their own thoughts.

In the Zhao Prince's Mansion.

The third prince Ji Chong liked martial arts, so he built a schoolyard in the mansion himself. There were not only various weapons, but also things like dummies, probably the size of a football field.

Except for the campus where this schoolyard is not as high as that of the Yulin Wei Daying, all other things are much higher than that of the Yulin Wei.

At this time, His Highness Zhao held a long-handled sword and slashed the wooden man's arm with one knife, cutting off the wooden man's right arm.

Wood chips fly everywhere.

The tall King of Zhao took a long breath and gritted his teeth and said, "I don't believe it. You still have the ability to supervise the country. When you manage the country for a few months, the government and the country will inevitably complain. At that time, the prime ministers from the three provinces will inevitably write a letter to destroy you!"

"Let you be proud for a few days!"

After saying this, the third prince was even more angry and another knife cut off the poor wooden man's left arm.

In comparison, the fourth prince, His Highness, King Qi, had much more resentment. After he came back from the palace, he had beaten several maids to serve him.

At this time, the fourth prince was sitting in the main hall of the Qi Palace, with four or five aides sitting next to him.

"Your Highness, I think that if Your Majesty makes the eldest prince the crown prince, it may not really allow the eldest prince to succeed to the throne. Maybe in a while, the eldest prince will make the court a mess. At that time, as long as someone writes to him, the title of the prince will not be preserved."

Someone echoed: "Brother Xiao said it well. This is the appointment of the crown prince, not the ascension of the throne. Your Highness has a great chance, so don't be too depressed."

His Highness, King Qi, had his eyes closed, opened his eyes viciously and gritted his teeth and said, "I am not depressed, but I am just annoyed. Why is this prince not trapped on my head!"

His Highness of the King of Qi groaned and said angrily: "Transfer my order to send messages to the various yamen of the court, and try to let them mess up the court. The boss has not gone out for more than ten years, so how can he know how to supervise the country? In just one month, the court will be managed by him!"

"At that time, let the people from the Censorate participate in him!"

Among the four princes, the fourth prince is the most powerful in the court. There are people from the fourth prince in every yamen in the capital. It is still easy for him to deliberately mess up the court.

The aide named Xiao bowed his head slightly when he heard this: "I'll inform you here."

The other three aides also stood up and lowered their heads and said, "We will also help Brother Xiao."

"Go."

His Highness, King Qi waved his hand, closed his eyes and sat on his chair, his heart secretly feeling fierce.

"The prince can be deposed and die!"

"Just because of you, I want to be the prince!"

…………………………

In the Wei Palace, Li Xin took His Highness the King of Wei's sleeve and sat in the backyard.

His Highness King Wei looked ugly, and he was obviously in a bad mood.

After Li Xin pulled him down, he also sat down on the stone bench opposite him, and then said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, you are too impatient."

The seventh prince groaned: "The eldest brother has been appointed as the crown prince. The position of crown prince has been settled. How can I not be anxious?"

Li Xin shook his head slightly: "In my opinion, the position of the prince has not been settled."

In nearly a year, Li Xin studied the official system of the Great Jin Dynasty and was already familiar with all the positions in the court. He said, "Your Highness, what are some officials in the Eastern Palace Office?"

The seventh prince shook his head and said, "The East Palace is like the Secretary of the War, and officials like the attendants are irrelevant."

Li Xin smiled and said, "Where is that third young master?"

The third young masters who are the prince's tutor, the prince's tutor, and the prince's tutor.

His Highness King Wei looked up at Li Xin and finally sighed: "Brother Xin should go and learn about the court. The third young master and the third open country were still there. Later, they had titles but no positions. Even if there were three young masters, they would not go to the East Palace to serve."

Li Xin smiled: "But if the current prince is not assisted by the third young master, he will not be able to sit steadily."

The third young masters all took first-rank positions, and at least they needed a second-rank official to know the title. In other words, the current crown prince needs at least three second-rank officials or even first-rank officials to help him stabilize the position of the crown prince.

His Highness the King of Wei looked up at Li Xin.

"What does Xin Ge'er mean?"

Li Xin became serious and lowered his head and said, "Your Highness, if Your Majesty does not send three first-rank officials to the East Palace for a while, then the location of this East Palace will be still empty!"
