Chapter 772 The abolition of the crown prince, the battle for imperial power
Easy to change the position of prince?
The crown prince is the crown prince of the country and the future monarch. .
This change is a real change of heaven.
Chen Zhiyun was extremely shocked.
The emperor actually had the idea of changing the prince?
And he was even more shocked. The emperor actually told him about this matter so lightly?
Although Chen Zhiyun was not very concerned about the affairs of the court, he also put some attention. He knew that the emperor had been sleeping for many years and had just woken up. Now his control over the court is very weak. Even if he had the intention to make arrangements, he was still unable to do it.
Even if you really want to replace the prince, it is not something that can be said every day, at least it will take a long time to make arrangements.
The abolition of the crown prince must now be just a superficial idea for the emperor.
But such thoughts are earth-shaking. Shouldn’t they be buried deep in their hearts and plan secretly?
When there is no plan, tell yourself about this?
Does the emperor really trust and value him so much?
The famous white-clothed army commander inexplicably felt a little panic in his heart.
However, the old emperor waved casually as if he was a household gossip and said lightly: "Don't be restrained, it's just a little thought."
Chen Zhiyun's breathing was slightly stern and she didn't dare to speak.
The old emperor said slowly: "Over the years, I have been ill for a long time and abandoned political affairs. It is remarkable that the prince is in power. It has been well managed. It has even stabilized the situation in Liang State, thus expanding the situation, actively igniting the war, and pushing the direction towards Shu State... In fact, in my eyes, his actions are no longer bad."
After pausing, the old emperor said in a low voice: "But, now I'm awake."
Chen Zhiyun's expression was slightly calmer, but he felt quite heavy.
"I am still the emperor of Liang State."
The old man above said in a hoarse voice: "This Liang Kingdom is still mine after all."
Chen Zhiyun raised his head and saw that the old emperor looked dazed and a little dazed.
Inexplicably, Chen Zhiyun felt that the emperor was indeed the old and twilight setting sun.
But this old lion was still unwilling to lower its minions.
The minions under the setting sun were shining with a shiny light.
"I am the emperor, he is the crown prince."
"I am the king, he is the crown prince."
"I am I, he is my son."
The old emperor said one by one, his tone was low, and said, "The power of Liang State should be my own after I woke up, but the prince was in power for many years and was immersed in power and could not extricate himself. He was no longer willing to hand over the power in his hands."
"Although he had no intention of forcing the palace, he wanted to continue to rule in the name of the prince, so that I could sit on the throne without power, just like the Supreme Emperor of the previous dynasty."
A cold light suddenly flashed in the old emperor's eyes. The old lion seemed to have opened its minions and said sternly: "But, the prince forgot that I am the king of a country who is firmly sitting on the high throne!"
The imperial study suddenly became quiet.
Chen Zhiyun did not speak out.
After the old emperor sternly, his breathing with a slight breathing sound seemed to be in a lingering state, and he looked heavy and embarrassed.
After a long time, Emperor Liang took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "What do you think about the Yi Changing the Prince?"
Chen Zhiyun thought for a long time before saying, "As the monarch, the emperor should... As long as he sees it, he can gradually undermine the power of the prince and return to the emperor's hands."
The old emperor's eyes had a strange color, and he flashed and said in a deep voice: "So, do you agree with my thoughts?"
"No." Chen Zhiyun said: "It is better to temporarily take over the authority of the prince. As for the position of the prince, it should not be changed."
"Oh?" the old emperor raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "Why?"
"Shu Mo will dare to forgive me, and I would like to ask the emperor to forgive me."
"If you have something to say, I forgive you for not guilty."
"All the descendants of the royal family are outstanding, but among the next generation, only the current crown prince has extraordinary skills and style of dealing with things, which is most similar to the emperor's grandfather." Chen Zhiyun said: "Among all the princes, His Royal Highness is not the smartest person, nor the most talented person. As for martial arts, he can only barely strengthen his body."
"However, now that he firmly sits in the position of crown prince, the other princes dare not surpass it. They rely not only on his original identity as the eldest son, but on his talent he has always shown."
Speaking of this, Chen Zhiyun quietly looked up.
Emperor Liang's eyes were turbid and he nodded slightly.
Chen Zhiyun quickly withdrew his gaze and continued: "Although among all the princes, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince cannot be outstanding, regardless of his literary talent or martial arts, he is the most ambitious person. He is not only strong in his wits, but also steady in his actions and is cautious in everything. And under his command, he has also gathered a group of talented people to give advice for him."
"Now, he has firmly taken over the power of Liang State, whether it is the smart plan in the court or the great power in the military."
"With great disrespectful words..."
Chen Zhiyun raised his head and said, "In the future, His Highness the Crown Prince will succeed to the throne, and it will be no less than the emperor's prime minister."
The old emperor pondered for a long time and said, "What do you mean is that I am old and cannot be as strong as the prince now?"
Chen Zhiyun's eyes sterned, his heart moved, and his face suddenly showed a look of panic, not even daring to say.
"Don't panic, I'm just joking with you."
The old emperor waved his hand and said, "But you said that, the prince is really outstanding. Although his literary talent and martial arts are not high, he is a monarch. As for the so-called literary talent and martial arts... he has both counselors and generals under his command, so he is not worried."
As he said that, the old emperor suddenly laughed and said, "It's better than the one who can't stand up to the wall after the death of the Shu Emperor."
Chen Zhiyun knew that what the old emperor was talking about was the current emperor of Shu.
The Emperor of Shu was actually not stupid, but he couldn't say how smart he was. His vision was all in the books. After reading only a few books, he thought he had seen through the world, so he seemed self-righteous and eager for power. He thought that after he took power, he could stabilize the world and become a wise ruler.
But in fact, Chen Zhiyun could also see that the Shu Emperor was determined to take all the power on him, but he might not have the ability to grasp power.
In today's Shu Kingdom, the Shu Emperor relies on the eunuch Hu Hao and has always been afraid of talented people such as Jiang Baijian, and has vaguely suppressed him in order to seize power.
Among the upper-class people in Liang State, they were more thorough in the affairs of the Shu State court.
Whether it is the current Emperor Liang or His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he has long commented on the mediocre and incompetent Emperor Shu who is in power.
The foolish people are not scary, but what is scary is the foolish people who are determined to seize power but are unable to take charge.
In their eyes, the real obstacle in Shu Kingdom was after Ge Xiang and Ge Zhan that year, Jiang Baijian and Jiang Fei and others, but Jiang Fei had also been assassinated.
“Well…”
The old emperor smiled and said, "This matter will be discussed later, so as not to avoid his position as the prince of the East Palace, but to make the father and son meet each other and teach the Liang Kingdom to be in turmoil."
As he said that, the Emperor Liang felt a little depressed and said, "Besides, once a person dies, after I return to heaven, the Liang Kingdom will be his, and the power will be his. If he loses the position of crown prince, he will be in the hands of a mud prince like the one in Shu Kingdom in the future, it will be ridiculous."
Chen Zhiyun didn't dare to answer, but just lowered her head slightly.
"Forget it..." Emperor Liang shook his head slightly, smiled twice, and then exposed the overwhelming matter lightly. Then he looked at Chen Zhiyun with a strange smile, and said, "I heard that the prince has suppressed you so much in the past few years. Don't you feel resentful to the prince? It is important to know that the abolition of the prince is very good for your situation."
When Chen Zhiyun heard this, he looked panic on his face, bowed and said, "How dare I have such a traitorous thought?"
The old emperor smiled and said, "Then why do you say... why do you think so?"
Chen Zhiyun whispered: "It's for the country of Liang."
