Chapter 210 The storm is coming
Until his death, Xu Ruizhi was unable to see his father's loving and doting look on him. Weidu left behind the breathless conspiracy that bound him in a cage and suppressed the darkness.
Being accused by Xu Ruizhi in public, Xu Qingke only frowned tightly and gave Xu Ruizhi a deep look.
"Your Highness, this road is full of thorns and there is no way. If you want to go there, you can only find the bright road by taking risks and being injured." Xu Qingke reached out and patted Xu Ruizhi on the shoulder, clearly showing that his
He is five years younger than Xu Ruizhi, but his expression is more mature and steady than Xu Ruizhi's.
"If you reveal any flaws, people hiding in the dark will sneak in. Remember,
The palace never gives people a chance to rest."
After saying this, Xu Qingke passed by Xu Ruizhi and ordered someone to check the emperor carefully. He needed to know what kind of poison or disease could silently take a person's life.
It is impossible to say that he is not uncomfortable. Xu Qingke is not hard-hearted, but he has long been accustomed to hiding all his emotions so that no one can see his sincerity.
After waiting for a long time before Xu Qingke came back, Lin Yunmeng looked in the direction of the palace with worry. Lin Lin didn't even have time to tidy up his official uniform, so he hurried into the palace after hearing the news.
Prince Lin sealed off the palace and investigated the people coming and going one by one.
The insurrectionary army became more and more fierce and gradually spread from south to north, but General Chen only reported that he was retreating steadily.
For a moment, the entire Xu Kingdom seemed to be in chaos.
The pretty woman sitting by the window slowly raised her head and looked at Yun Shu Yunjuan.
It turns out that this is the calm when the storm is about to come.
After the death of the emperor, the prince temporarily took over the imperial power. He wanted to stabilize the situation first and then discuss it later. The princes who usually watched doing nothing were ready to take action. However, with the support of Prince Lin, the general and the prime minister's office, they did not dare to take action.
.
But sooner or later, this facade will be torn apart, not to mention that there are secretly peeping people who silently light this fuse.
In this situation where there was a wolf before and a tiger behind, Xu Ruizhi could only hold a funeral in a hurry... Nowadays, the rumors about the royal family have become more and more rampant. The suppressed words of divine punishment have doubled since the emperor's mysterious death.
On the day the emperor was buried, the whole country mourned, although people who were swayed by rumors even set off firecrackers to celebrate.
When the news reached Xu Ruizhi's ears, he felt doubly painful. Powerless anger swept through his body, but he could only silently swallow the bitter sobs.
His father governed the country well and served the people all his life, but he died suddenly without even leaving a last word.
Under his command, the people of Xu State did not have to suffer from foreign barbarian invasions, but the people of Liming, whom he cared about so much, cheered on the day of his burial, which is really ironic.
Prince Lin patted Xu Ruizhi on the shoulder, intending to comfort him: "Your Highness, please be patient. The first priority is to stabilize the court. Tomorrow, I will ask for troops to be stationed in the border areas to prevent the prying eyes of the Zhou Kingdom on the border."
His words reminded Xu Ruizhi that now he was facing a serious situation with tigers and leopards in front of him and jackals in the back.
This world is not the world of the Xu Kingdom. Although the Xu Kingdom has a strong military force and hides itself from other countries, you must know that Emperor Xu overthrew the previous dynasty system and established the country only twenty years ago. Compared with some surrounding countries with a long history and rich heritage, it is still somewhat
Not enough to watch.
Fortunately, Prince Lin, the famous God of War, was able to calm other countries, and because of Emperor Xu's wisdom, no one dared to take any action against Xu for more than twenty years.
But once the emperor died, not to mention what other countries thought, even the local people had various ideas.
Not allowing Xu Ruizhi time to be passive, he called the old eunuch left by his father and asked him to bring him a pen, and immediately issued an imperial edict.
Prince Lin leaving Kyoto to guard the country can indeed shock foreign countries, but everything has two sides.
After he intimidated other countries, wouldn't it make the interested people in that country and Xu country much more relaxed? After all, Prince Lin focused all his attention on defending other countries, which just gave them the opportunity to change their dynasties.
It's not that Xu Ruizhi didn't know the consequences of his actions, but now he had to do it. He had to choose one of the two, first save the people in the area, and then suppress the Yu family's rebel army.
During the morning court session, Xu Ruizhi, who was still wearing the prince's uniform, pinched his brows. The late emperor left so quickly that he didn't even have his dragon robe custom-made. Of course, he had no intention of caring about these frivolous things now.
The court officials below looked at each other in disbelief, shoving each other covertly in the hope that someone would break the silence first.
"If you have anything to say, just tell me. I happen to want to hear what you ministers think."
Xu Ruizhi waved his hands impatiently, which made the people below even more confused.
Thoughts? What are your thoughts? Are you thinking about other countries that are ready to make moves, are you arrogant about the rebels, or are you thinking about the whole thing that is full of conspiracy?
Several ministers pushed each other forward, and the middle-aged man with the highest official position among them thought for a moment: "Prince, recently... in the capital, there are suspected mobs in the capital that have sneaked into the capital to persuade people, causing some people in the capital to crusade... to insult the majesty of the Tian family.
"
After saying that, he immediately knelt down on the ground tremblingly, not daring to raise his head to look at the future kings.
But after waiting for a long time, I didn't hear the other party's angry shouts and curses. There was only silence on top of the rolling undercurrent.
Xu Ruizhi looked at the kneeling courtier gloomily, feeling a bad feeling in his heart.
Sure enough, another old man with goat braids touched his beard and sneered: "Crunt, Shilang Zhang dares to use this word, it is really bold. Your Highness, I think you should resolve this matter quickly, otherwise
Those mobsters have completely lost their minds, and I am afraid that even the Tian family will no longer be afraid of them."
These words seemed to be urging, but Xu Ruizhi's eyes darkened even more, and the aura around him became more condensed.
The words that had been passed over were deliberately repeated by this person, but the light words clearly reminded Xu Ruizhi that his Tian family was an imperial family that was despised by the people.
"Solve it? Then you should come up with a solution for me!" Xu Ruizhi was angry. If it could be solved easily, he would have done it long ago. Why would he need to listen to the hard-to-distinguish between true and false words of these people with ulterior motives?
"Your Highness, don't be angry. As a future king, it's time for you to be tested." The old minister's answer made the whole audience take a breath, and Xu Ruizhi could clearly see the contempt in his eyes.
For example, when he was still the prince, it was acceptable for the older official to say a few words in the school examination, but now that the prince is a confirmed king, he still dares to say such a bold thing.
Xu Ruizhi narrowed his eyes: "Do you think this prince dare not kill you?"
The veteran's leisurely look froze, and he glanced subconsciously into the crowd. Xu Ruizhi, who was at the head of the group, didn't see this small movement, but it was clearly seen by Xu Qingke on the side, and he couldn't help but squint his eyes.
