Chapter 747 Succession
Qin Anming continued: "Through last night's coup, Your Majesty has seen clearly that the Wing King Zhao He was able to control most of the military power of the three armies of the Imperial Army. This is very incredible. In this way, his previous performances are just an illusion of confusing people. He is probably always accumulating power and power in secret. Before he figured it out, he would have to do it rashly, and... "
Qin Anming said this, looked up at Zhao Xun, and did not continue.
Zhao Xun frowned and said, "And what? There is no third person here, Qin Aiqing, but he said it's okay."
Qin Anming said softly: "Concubine Li has handed over the edict to Li Zhong Zuo Prime Minister, but has not read the edict in front of all the ministers. Your Majesty is still the crown prince now. Some things will be done now, I am afraid..."
Zhao Zhi's health has always been poor, especially since half a year ago, his condition worsened. Although the condition was relieved by the efforts of the imperial doctors, it did not improve much. Zhao Zhi knew that his body could not last long. Once the situation occurred in the future, he would leave without any explanation. The entire Fengjing would probably immediately fall into chaos.
In order to prevent problems, Zhao Zhi gave Zhao Xun the right to supervise the country, and secretly wrote an imperial edict, telling that if he died, he would inherit the throne by the crown prince Zhao Xun. Zhao Zhi handed the imperial edict to Li Yibao. This morning, Li Yi took out the imperial edict and watched it for the ministers present. After confirming that it was Zhao Zhi's handwriting, the imperial edict was handed over to the left prime minister Li Zhong. Li Zhong said that before dusk, the prime ministers of the Zhengshi Hall would read out the contents of the imperial edict in front of everyone outside the Mingzheng Hall and formally establish Zhao Xun's inheritance of the throne.
Before this, Zhao Xun's current identity was only the crown prince's crown prince, Qin Anming was not wrong with this.
Zhao Xun stood up, frowned, walked back and forth, and fell into deep thought.
Qin Anming had some words that were inconvenient to say, but he understood the meaning very clearly. Zhao Xun could naturally hear that he had not officially inherited the throne, so he was so strong and impatient. This expression of emotion would give everyone an invisible pressure and distance. This is not a good thing for him to successfully transition and control the court after he inherited the throne.
Moreover, the power Zhao He used to launch such a coup was indeed beyond everyone's expectations, but from another point, it can be seen that the power accumulated in Zhao He was probably extraordinary. Since this is the case, the officials related to him were probably very large and complex. At this time, it seemed that they just killed Yang Binglin and Zhao Berlin, and they were afraid that other officials would continue to be involved during this period. At this time, Zhao Xun had just succeeded to the throne. Once he was involved, there must be a result. Without a result, where would Zhao Xun's face be placed?
If more and more people are involved, and in the end, how should Zhao Xun end up at that time? You can't kill them all, right? Zhao Xun dares to kill hundreds or even thousands of people. No matter how many, he can still do it, and dare to do it?
Qin Anming said just now, just reminding Zhao Xun that if you eliminate Zhao He’s party, you must not be impatient before you have certain certainty. Once you take action, the situation is likely to get bigger and bigger. With Zhao Xun’s current abilities and strength, you may not be able to stop.
After pondering for a long time, Zhao Xun stopped walking and looked at Qin Anming: "What you said makes sense. Zhao He's affairs should not be too urgent. I'm going to make plans after I officially inherit the throne."
"Your Majesty's wiseness."
Qin Anming bowed and said.
Zhao Xun sat down and stopped talking. Qin Anming was naturally tactful and said goodbye and left.
Afterwards, Zhao Xun sent someone to summon Li Zhong to inquire about the matter in Henan.
Zhao Xun naturally had to ask Li Zhong for his opinions on military matters.
Li Zhong obviously had such considerations. He told Zhao Xun that the governor of Chuzhou, Wang Huaili, was rebellious and domineering, and he acted arbitrary in the local area. His national laws were not suitable for him. Zhao Zhi could only take a gentle approach to him. Wang Huaili was willing to follow the imperial orders, which was because Zhao Zhi was very kind to promote him. In addition, Zhao Zhi was quite powerful in military affairs in the middle and late periods, and he won many foreign wars, which shocked the world. There were also famous generals such as Li Zhong and Huang Su in the army. Wang Huaili did not dare to be too presumptuous and tried to keep restrained in his life and work.
Although the war in Henan was pacified, Wang Huailio did not withdraw his troops, but instead recruited rebels there with his obvious intention, and was to use it as capital to bargain with the court. At this time, if the army in Luojing was rashly cleared out on a large scale, once mutiny was caused, the entire situation would probably be difficult to control.
Zhao Xun listened to Li Zhong's advice and decided to deal with Luo Jing's army with gentle means.
After Zhao Xun and Li Zhong discussed, the two went to Mingzheng Hall together.
At this time, thousands of people had gathered in the square outside Mingzheng Hall. They watched Zhao Xun and Li Zhong's arrival. The most important moment had come.
Surrounded by dozens of important officials in the court, Zhao Xun entered the Mingzheng Hall.
Entering the inner hall, Zhao Xun looked at Zhao Zhi's spiritual position, knelt on the ground, kowtowed a few times, and then was helped up by Yang Daolin.
"Li Xiangguo, let's start."
Yang Daolin said to Li Zhong.
Li Zhong nodded, took out the imperial edict from his arms, and read it immediately.
According to the heavens, the emperor ordered:
I heard that the emperor and heaven's decree was not normal, but only to virtue, so Hong gave the sage and the sage, which was the right thing to do. The third son of the emperor, Zhao Xun, was civilized, well-off, respectful, frugal, kind and filial. He respected the relatives of heaven and earth, and loved the people of the world. He had the appearance of Honghua, adhered to the abilities of sages, worried about national affairs, and relied on the principles of the court, and was able to bear the magical tools. I was the blessing plan for the people of the world. I established myself as the new emperor, the imperial descendants, and the heavens responded to the people. The heavens celebrated together, and the world were amnesty, and I was obsessed with me.
After the edict was read, the ministers immediately knelt down on the ground, shouting long live the mountain, and the sound reached outside. Thousands of people in the square outside also knelt on the ground with the sound. After several bows, they shouted loudly.
Li Zhong knelt on the ground, holding the edict in both hands and handed it to Zhao Xun.
Zhao Xun received the imperial edict, held it tightly, pursed his lips tightly, and his eyes showed excitement.
"All my beloved ministers are exempted from courtesy and have a stable body."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Everyone stood up.
At this time, Li Yi walked in, and Zhao Xun bowed to him: "My mother."
In the Jin Dynasty, except for the new emperor ascending the throne and when the emperor passed away, court officials had to kneel down to him. At other times, there was no need to kneel down to bow down to him. This was a kind of respect for officials.
Therefore, when everyone saw Li Yi, they bowed and bowed, and they were not called the Empress Dowager. Li Yi’s title of Empress Dowager was only legitimate after Zhao Xun officially ascended the throne.
Now it’s just the beginning, and Zhao Xun still has a series of formal processes to be completed later.
Li Yi looked at everyone, took Zhao Xun's hand, and said in a deep voice: "I will leave my son to you."
"Please give me a message."
Li Yi bowed to everyone.
